"By the way, how's the situation over there?" Watanabe Meteor abruptly changes the subject.

Guchuan Xiaofu shook his head and said a little helplessly: "The situation over there is still like that, it's still too troublesome for us to reach in, but then again, what should we do with the person we caught two days ago?" Now we're pretty much sure he's stumbling into our territory. ”

Two days earlier, Nobita's patrol had spotted a panicked young man not far from the base, and had taken him back to the base, but Nobita and one of his men had shown up in the process, and had thrown him into the confinement chamber wearing a mask all the way.

After some interrogation, the young man claimed that he had come to Mt. Fuji for a visit, that he had entered Aokigahara Jukai because he was curious about the urban legends related to Aokigahara Jukai, and that his family was waiting for him at the hotel at the foot of Mt. Fuji.

So, Kougawa took a few people to investigate the identity of the young man and the reliability of his testimony, and the results should be no problem from the current situation.

"Be careful, after all, we got this secret base from other secret churches, so we can't rule out that the secret church is aware of the problem here, so you have to continue to investigate this person's identity... Of course, we and the other secret churches are not all the way, so don't treat that person too badly, and let the procurement side be careful, after all, they are related to the lives of thousands of people. ”

Watanabe Meteor thought for a moment, got up and said, "I'm going to take a look at the excavation area now, although we are not here for the relics of those ancient gods, but there are some extra money that we still have to earn." ”

At this moment, Shizuka Minamoto suddenly ran in.

Seeing Shizuka Minamoto, Watanabe Meteor's eyes lit up and said, "Shizuka, is there any news of my father?" ”

Some time ago, the Black Rock Mountain Prison has announced that two prisoners have escaped from the Black Stone Mountain Prison, one of them is Watanabe Meteor's father, Watanabe Masao, so Watanabe Meteor has been sending people to find out about his father... Although Watanabe Meteor still doesn't want his father to come back and fight for power with him, he is still his father after all.

What's more, at this time, Watanabe Masao was still being pursued by the Black Rock Mountain Prison, and Watanabe Meteor still had a certain understanding of the Black Stone Mountain Prison, so Watanabe Meteor did not want to see his father recaptured by the Black Rock Mountain Prison.

So Watanabe Meteor's idea now is very simple, that is, to find the whereabouts of Masao Watanabe, and then send Masao Watanabe to the Hokkaido region to avoid the limelight.

Gen Shizuka nodded and said, "Our people found out about your father's whereabouts in Tokyo, because there was a burglary in the suburbs of Tokyo yesterday, two middle-aged people stole a convenience store delivery truck, and from the description of witnesses, the perpetrator should be your father." ”

Watanabe Meteor frowned, and said with some confusion: "What's going on?" How could my father have gone to the outskirts of Tokyo, it stands to reason that they should have left Tokyo as soon as possible. ”

At this time, after hesitating for a moment, Minamoto Shizuka still spoke: "That, the eyewitness also claimed that the perpetrator drove to downtown Tokyo. ”

Hearing this, Watanabe Meteor couldn't help but be even more puzzled.

"Tokyo, why did my father go to Tokyo? He should be able to guess that I'm not in Tokyo. Watanabe touched his chin and said, "There must be a reason why they went to Tokyo, could it be that another person controlled my father's actions?" It shouldn't be. ”

Watanabe Meteor couldn't help but look at Shizuka Gen and Kofu Orukawa, and asked, "Do you have any opinions on this matter?" ”

Shizuka Gen and Kofu Gugawa shook their heads, indicating that they were also confused about this matter.

Watanabe Meteor sighed and said helplessly: "Okay, Shizuka, you should continue to send someone to Tokyo to inquire about my father's whereabouts, and by the way, see if there will be any big moves on the side of the public faction... Also, Shizuka, you can find a few more trustworthy people to go to Osaka and tell Zhang Jingxu about our current situation. ”

"Sect Master, do you mean we're going to join the martial arts faction?" Bone Kawa said in surprise.

Although Watanabe Meteor and others have been "self-contained" at the foot of Mount Fuji since they left Tokyo, they still know the information they should know, so Watanabe Meteor and others are very clear that the Sawada family that Zhang Jingxu and Lu Tianya "took refuge" in is already an important member of the samurai faction.

Watanabe Meteor nodded, and said seriously: "At this point, it is impossible for us to bet on both ends, because if we join the public faction, we are likely to be ostracized because of my father, or even betrayed to the Black Rock Mountain Prison, after all, we all know the situation in the Black Stone Mountain Prison; But the most important thing is that Zhang Jingxu's Sawada family is already in the martial arts faction, so we join the martial arts faction, and someone can be regarded as giving us a backing. ”

Watanabe Meteor paused and continued: "Of course, what we are doing now is no longer something that we can do by the Yellow Coat Sect alone, so we must get Zhang Jingxu's support as soon as possible, so that we can proceed with the next plan; Okay, Shizuka-sama, you can get busy first, and I'll go to the excavation area to have a look. ”

Koo Bone Kawa and Shizuka Gen nodded and turned to leave.

However, as soon as the two of them walked on their front feet, a dark shadow appeared behind Watanabe Meteor.

Although this black shadow appeared quietly, Watanabe Meteor had already sensed its presence, and said without looking back: "Why are you here again?" ”

The dark shadow didn't say much, just escaped out of thin air, put a letter on the table, and disappeared again.

Watanabe Meteor sighed and turned to pick up the letter.

There was a yellow mark on the letter.

The gaze returns to the town of Too.

At this time, Liu Xing and others were decorating their new home.

Although Liu Xing and the others knew that they would be able to stay in Duwang Town for ten days and half a month at most, and it was unlikely that they would ever return to Duwang Town after leaving Duwang Town, in order to make themselves comfortable during this time, Liu Xing and the others still made various arrangements honestly.

Of course, Liu Xing and the three of them did not forget to follow various devices in their new home to ensure that they would not be "counter-killed".

After Liu Xing and others got everything done, Dior drove a classic car to the door.

Dio didn't sell it, and said directly: "The cause of the fire in that forest has been determined, it is true that someone used fire spells in the woods as Siris said, we clearly saw traces caused by spells on several big trees, and according to the location of these traces, there should be a person standing there who uses fire spells around irregularly, which makes us unable to determine what this person wants to do, but we can be sure that this person should not be attacking the enemy." ”

"Is that trying to set fire to the woods? Or is it a loss of ability? Li Hanxing put forward his own hypothesis.

Dior nodded, and said undeniably: "There is indeed such a possibility, but the possibility is not too great; For now, we believe that this incident is the work of the Swollen Daughter's men, possibly to send us a preview to get us ready. ”

Hearing Dior say this, Liu Xing couldn't help but complain: "Oh? How is it good that the swollen daughter will send you a notice in advance? ”

Dio shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "That's right, some things are so mysterious, and there are some precedents before, for example, a year ago, the swollen daughter sent a killer, this killer's situation is more special, he has two brothers who are ordinary people, the three brothers can be said to look exactly the same, and even the accent is almost the same, so the killer often pretends to be looking for his brother to commit crimes, and the swollen daughter issued a corresponding notice in advance- A public service announcement was made on a billboard in the new town, showing three identical birds. ”

"It can be said that if the swollen daughter arranges some more strange subordinates to enter Duwang Town, she will basically arrange some corresponding hints, which can also be said to be some small clues, but these clues are often more hidden, and will not be as fanfare as today, but we still feel that this is the hint of the swollen daughter, suggesting that this new killer is likely to choose to carry out a large-scale attack... That is, it directly burned down the urban area of Toocho, and you must know that the old town of Too Town is mainly civil structures, and if it catches fire, it will be troublesome. ”

Liu Xing frowned, knowing that Dior's words were not alarmist, because Mai Yuqiang's house was a typical civil structure, and if a fire broke out, it would easily spread.

As for the situation in the new town, it is actually not much better, because the particularity of Duwang Town has almost turned into a catering town, and nearly half of the businesses are running catering businesses.

The reason is very simple, Duwangcho is really rich, and he also has feelings.

Again, the people who can access the truth of this world are not short of money, and these people constitute the main population of Duwang Town, so there are a lot of rich people in Duwang Town, and their money cannot be used elsewhere.

The most important thing is that these people from all over China are basically impossible to return to China, so they put their homesickness on the word "eat", so over time, many people do special restaurants in Duwangcho, and then Duwangcho has become the real "Chinatown" of Nagoya, and many people will come to eat authentic Chinese cuisine.

Back to the point, what are the restaurants most afraid of? That, of course, is a fire.

After all, there are too many combustibles in restaurants, and it is difficult to control them as long as there is a fire, so if a fire breaks out in the new city, it is easy to have a chain reaction, and the restaurants will explode one by one like firecrackers.

In addition, there is no way for the Too Town Conservation Association to stop large-scale fires... Because they're all human beings after all.

"If the fire can't be controlled in the first place, then the entire urban area of Too Town will become a sea of fire." Dio said seriously: "So we suspect that the swollen daughter is trying to prepare us psychologically, and then the killer is likely to set fire indiscriminately in the city, which will be a huge test for us." ”

Dior said as he took down a map of Duwang Town from the car and put it on the table, "This is the most detailed map of our Duwang Town, we can see that Duwang Town can be said to be accessible in all directions, and there are crossroads everywhere, so except for that commercial area, other places can be said to be fragmented, so if that killer starts setting fires, unless we can determine his location as soon as possible, it will be very troublesome for us to catch him, because we don't know where he will go." ”

As Dior said, the town of Too on this map looks really fragmented, and even in the new town, a new street appears every few buildings.

In addition to the main roads, the length of those trails is more than ten or twenty meters...

This meant that the killer could move to the next street in less than ten seconds if he was nimble, making it easy to lose him.

If you lose him, it means that he can set fire to a restaurant on the street.

"Another difficulty in tracking down this killer is that Duwang Town does not have a real commanding height, and the highest building is the department store where Bai Liang is located, and this department store is only four floors, so we can't establish a normalized observation point on the high-rise building, let alone send people to fly in the sky to monitor the situation on the ground all the time, so...

Dior looked at Liu Xing and the three of them and stopped talking.

Of course, Liu Xing and the three of them understood Dior's thoughts.

Therefore, Liu Xing shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, we already know the purpose of your trip, Dior, to put it bluntly, you want us to be volunteers to inspect Duwang Town, right?" ”

Dior nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, that's what we think, because our Duwang Town Conservation Association is really short of people, and ordinary people are definitely not good at this volunteer, and it is easy to startle snakes, so Liu Xing, you are the best volunteer candidate; Of course, Liu Xing, you can also look for the whereabouts of the leopard during the patrol, because I can be sure that the leopard should still be in the new city, but the most important thing is that no matter what the situation is, our Duwang Town Protection Association will settle your salary according to the time. ”

Since Dio said so, Liu Xing and the three of them could only accept this task.
