Chapter 37: Superior Investigator!
Three days later.
Underground in Donghai City.
Headquarters of the Zero Investigation Bureau.
The entrance to this place is extremely well-hidden.
And there are always guards on duty, requiring various procedures to enter and exit, not even a fly can get in unnoticed.
But surprisingly, the person in front of me is an exception!
Cheng Haixing looked at Chen Ye, who was holding a book in his left hand and two walnuts in his right hand, with lines of black appearing on his forehead.
"How did you bring these things in?"
Chen Ye glanced at Cheng Haixing and finally smiled.
"I told you where the mask is, why did you come to me instead of looking for the mask?"
"To be honest, there is nowhere in this world I cannot go, and there is no cage that can hold me."
Indeed, there is no cage in this world that can hold Chen Ye.
However, Chen Ye did not actually leave this place; he just sent the Ghost Shadow Corps to buy some things outside and bring them back.
Cheng Haixing also knew he had not left, but various things always seemed to appear out of thin air in his room.
This quickly made the upper management alert.
Cheng Haixing came specifically to check the situation, "I have sent someone to look for it, as you said, this mask is not very powerful, only at a medium to low level among the twelve masks, right?"
Chen Ye nodded, "Yes, is there a problem?"
Cheng Haixing, "Then, how powerful is your mask?"
Chen Ye smiled, "Just at a low level, but the strength of the mask doesn’t just depend on itself, but also on its user."
"However, Elder Hai, there is something you need to know."
"Once a mask is worn on someone’s face, there are only two ways to take it off."
"One is if the host of the mask dies, and the other is if you know the true name of the mask, and you can use the dragon’s vein to pull off the mask."
Cheng Haixing was puzzled, "What is a dragon’s vein?"
Chen Ye suddenly showed a malicious smile, "Corpse oil."
!!!
Cheng Haixing’s pupils constricted, "You better not be lying to me."
Chen Ye stretched lazily, "If you don’t believe it, forget it then."
Cheng Haixing took a deep breath, "Fine, what is the true name of this mask you mentioned, and who does it correspond to?"
Chen Ye shook his head, "I can’t do anything about it. I can only sense its location, but I don’t know which mask it is."
"The true name of the mask, you’ll have to find it yourselves."
"Or you can simply try to kill the host directly, that would be faster, right?"
Cheng Haixing snorted, "Even a criminal has human rights, you better put away such extreme thoughts."
。。。
A few days later.
At the top of a tall building.
Five strong men were hitting a man, "It’s been three months, do you remember what we said? This time we’ll chop off one of your fingers!"
"Please, please, I can borrow the money soon, just give me two more days!"
"You said the same thing last time, you never learn, let’s do it!"
"No!"
Thud!!!
With a sound of flesh being pierced, the leader of the men froze instantly!
He slowly lowered his head and looked at his chest, only to see a very sharp black curved knife piercing through his chest!
"Wha…"
Sploosh!
The black curved knife was suddenly pulled out, and the strong man instantly fell to the ground.
The other four strong men saw this and their pupils constricted, then they saw numerous Shadow Soldiers with blood-red eyes and black aura all over them surrounding them!
Those soldiers had weak and thin left arms, and big right arms with a huge curved knife!
Before the strong men could say anything, the next moment, a figure suddenly rose from the shadows in front of them!
The person was extremely tall, standing over two meters high!
His eyes were also blood-red, and he wore an asymmetrical mask on his face!
The right side of the mask looks like a crying woman’s face, in white color.
The left side of the mask looks like a grinning demon, in black color.
"Haha, all five are here, that saves me a lot of time!"
"Counting you five, that makes exactly fifty heads!"
The person wearing the mask suddenly started speaking, and shockingly, the mask also moved as it opened!
The mask seemed to be like it was part of his skin, moving along with his chin, even cracking open!
He could even stick out his tongue!
Several strong men, seeing this, collapsed to the ground, "Dead… they’re dead."
"What is that thing?!"
Wang Chan grinned menacingly, "Just ten days ago, you were still so disrespectful to me, now you’ve forgotten?"
"I am Wang Chan!"
"Haha, karma always comes back around, what goes around, comes around!"
"The laws of nature have turned, are you finally feeling scared now?"
"I have settled all scores, the debts have been paid, now it’s your turn!"
"A group of ants, not even worth my effort."
"Ghost Shadow Corps!"
As the words fell, countless Shadow Soldiers immediately took action!
They swiftly wielded their giant curved swords, moving as fast as lightning, beheading the four individuals in an instant!
And now, only one person was left on the field.
The man was wearing a white shirt, his back soaked with sweat.
Seeing the bloody scene in front of him, he held his breath, lowering his head as if he hadn’t seen anything.
Wang Chan smirked again, "I can tell, you are just like the old me, both pitiful souls."
"But a pitiful person must have their flaws, just like the old me, so, go die!"
*Pfft!*
The man was pierced through by the Shadow Soldier behind him, quickly losing his life!
Wang Chan felt a surge of satisfaction, "Is this what it feels like to control everything, to do as I please, so satisfying!"
*Thud!*
At that moment, Wang Chan suddenly heard footsteps behind him.
Wang Chan’s smile widened, "Looks like we have another dead body to deal with."
"Hehe." A cold laughter came from behind Wang Chan.
In the next moment, a young man in a black uniform appeared in front of him.
"Nice to meet you, Jiang Quan, the superior investigator from the Zero Bureau."
Jiang Quan glanced around and saw red lights flashing in other buildings. He gave a thumbs-up sign.
At this moment, Wang Chan had no idea that they were already surrounded by countless police officers.
Wang Chan sneered, "Great, I’ve got your name, now you can die!"
"Ghost Shadow Corps!"
As the words fell, countless Shadow Soldiers swarmed up instantly!
But Jiang Quan remained calm, simply leaned to the side a little, and dodged the surprise attack smoothly.
Wang Chan’s Shadow Soldier moved clumsily and was not very fast.
Compared to Chen Ye’s Shadow Soldier moving at ten times the speed, there was no comparison at all.
Jiang Quan had been tracking Wang Chan for a long time and had a basic understanding of the traits of the Ghost Shadow Corps.
He quickly stepped forward, leaped into the air and kicked out with both feet, instantly jumping over a group of Shadow Soldiers!
Bang! Bang!
Two Shadow Soldiers were hit in the head by Jiang Quan and exploded into countless black mists on the spot!
Seeing this, Wang Chan was stunned, "How is this possible… who are you?!"
Jiang Quan moved quickly and dodged the curved knives attacking from behind and both sides.
At the same time, he put his hands in his pockets and kicked the Shadow Soldier in front of him, pushing it away.
"Didn’t I just say that?"
"Since you didn’t hear it clearly, let me introduce myself again."
"Zero Investigation Bureau’s top investigator, Jiang Quan, is like a half priest and half police officer."
