Chapter 155: I Have One More Question
When we were about to reach Yelan Town, the car stopped.
Sha Juele and Lu Quan changed into the uniforms of the Demon Guard, and wore the badge of the Demon Guard.
Although she didn't have a proper uniform, she also put a jacket over her swimsuit.
After the assembly was completed, the vehicle continued to move and drove into Yelan Town.
As he passed through the pass, Luquan showed the guards the obsidian order, and after passing the inspection, he was immediately released.
Yu Changsheng guessed that Lu Quan should have ripped off these uniforms and signals from the corpses of the previous batch of shadow-level teams.
In other words, he must have followed him into the proving ground.
The car drove all the way and finally stopped outside a spacious villa.
After the ceremony, Guo Wei, the mayor of Yelan Town, went out to greet him personally.
Sha Juele originally wanted to let Feihua Feicao stay and watch Yu Changsheng in the car, but he still felt uneasy, so he simply tied Yu Changsheng and came in together.
Lu Quan is more familiar with the mayor Guo Wei, and introduces to Guo Wei that Yu Changsheng is a vicious curse who was caught by them.
Guo Wei naturally believed in the authority of Zhu Demon Guard, and very politely brought a few of them to the reception room, and prepared rich refreshments and all local local products, and even placed a box of Yelan on the table that made Yu Changsheng salivate for cigarettes.
However, Yu Changsheng could only watch with a blank eye, and he secretly hated it in his heart.
On the other hand, Sha Juele and Lu Quan, the two shameless guys, although they have fierce faces, their acting skills are still good, in order to show their military demeanor, the two of them hold their heads high, and they seem to have a bit of arrogance in the army.
Before that, Lu Quan had met Guo Wei as a Demon Guard, and told him that he was going to bring a flame-level team to the town. Now after picking up the three of Sha Juele, it is Sha Juele who plays the role of the captain of the flame-level team.
As we all know, this Demon Guard is a team of all kinds of weirdos, so the mayor of the town is not surprised by the pair of children who are not flowers and grasses.
After a short greeting, Sha Juele took a sip of tea and said with a smile:
"Mayor Guo, on the road just now, Lu Quan has briefly introduced the situation to me, but I hope you can talk about some specific details, and we will also facilitate the deployment of the plan."
"Brothers have worked hard all the way, this is no problem, I will tell you what happened again." The mayor of the town looked very polite.
"As you know, our Yelan Town, with a long history, is also a very famous town in the East, and with the support of the Empire, it has always been harmonious and stable, and it is becoming more and more prosperous. Even though there are a lot of merchants and clans coming and going here, there are very few two-star crimes.
However, just half a month ago, something strange happened here, and residents began to disappear one after another. After receiving the report, the detective team immediately began to investigate the matter. Because most of the missing residents suddenly disappeared from their homes in the middle of the night, the investigation lasted about a week and found nothing. But after all, there are a lot of barren mountains and mountains here, and it is normal for some angry children to run away from home or some hunters who are lost in the mountains, plus other official duties are busy, so I don't pay much attention to these disappearances.
But...... It didn't end there, and on the seventh day after the first few residents disappeared, the number of missing people in the town suddenly skyrocketed, including from the passing merchants and demon hunters. I had no choice but to order the detective team to increase the number of police officers to investigate, and the number of people patrolling at night was doubled. Soon, according to our investigation, most witnesses claimed to have seen a pink or earthy yellow mollusc monster that was said to have taken away the townspeople.
Then, the news of the monster infestation and robbery spread, and the people of the town panicked. According to the intelligence gathered by the detective captain, we found that this yellow monster should be a magical beast, and it does not seem to be of a low level. In view of this situation, I had no choice but to ask Heavenly Tiger City for help. Heavenly Tiger City happened to have a shadow-level Demon Guarding Team stationed there, and they rushed over overnight.
Ay...... Later, Brother Lu, you also know, the entire team was wiped out, and even the way up the mountain was blocked. Now the people in the town are worried, and the families with a little bit of financial resources are ready to move. Now at night, no one dares to go out at all, and the previous big night market is even more afraid to open, alas...... Brother Lu, Brother Sha, don't hide it, I, the mayor of the town, really have no way at all, if the situation deteriorates like this, and there are no measures above, I can only take the blame and resign and flee with the people! ”
The mayor of the town gushed endlessly, and Lu Quan and Sha Juele also listened nonchalantly. After all, these things have long been clear to them.
However, of course, Sha Juele did not come to listen to these words.
"Well, Mayor Guo is dedicated to the people, which is admirable. You can rest assured, since our flame-level Demon Guard is here this time, it will definitely be easily solved! In just three days, we're sure we'll get it! Sha Juele swore to it.
"Believe, of course I do! The Demon Guard is indeed the backbone of the empire, and Captain Sand is a very trustworthy hero at first glance. Captain Sha, please rest assured, just let it go, if you need anything, feel free to mention it! We will do our best to cooperate with you. Guo Wei smiled all over his face.
When Sha Juele heard him say this, he raised his legs a little higher, frowned and said:
"Alas, although our flame-level Demon Guard is very famous, but after all, we are also mortals, and there must be a need, so in order to avoid causing trouble to you, I specially brought these two special team members. But then again, in addition to the need to trouble you with food and accommodation, the other thing ......"
Sha Juele's eyes changed, as if he wanted to hint at Guo Wei.
Guo Wei immediately understood, patted Sha Juele's hand and said:
"You can rest assured! According to Brother Lu's previous instructions, I have already arranged your food, clothing, housing and transportation, and I guarantee that it is the top treatment in the town. As for the rest, hehe, we have other arrangements for the evening! ”
Sha Juele said that he was very satisfied, but his expression was still arrogant, and he took a sip of tea:
"Well, okay, let's take us to the guest room. After a short break, it's time to start working on a plan of action! Remember, don't let outsiders bother you during this time. You should be aware of our authority, and if someone hears something they shouldn't hear, we don't care who they are. Lawfully kill on sight! ”
Guo Wei's eyelids jumped, but his face was still modest, and he nodded and said:
"Rest assured, rest assured, it's natural."
Originally, the meeting was basically about to end, and the mayor also got up to see them off, ready to take them to their residence.
At this time, Yu Changsheng, who had been bound, spoke:
"Hey, Mayor Wait, I still have a question that I haven't figured out."
Sha Juele and Lu Quan couldn't help but be stunned, and they all looked at him in amazement, and Guo Wei was naturally a little surprised.
Guo Wei looked at Sha Juele, Sha Juele frowned and asked:
"What do you want to ask?"
Yu Changsheng ignored Sha Juele, but moved his gaze to Guo Wei and said slowly:
"As far as I know, although this Yelan Town is very close to Heavenly Tiger City, it is not affiliated with Heavenly Tiger City, but directly belongs to the Third Curse Research Institute, and it is also a military town. However, now that such a big thing has happened in your town, why don't you ask for help from Sansho, but choose to ask Heavenly Tiger City for help? ”
Lu Quan's face changed slightly, as if he felt that Yu Changsheng was a little talkative, but Sha Juele did not stop Yu Changsheng.
Guo Wei's face changed suddenly, but he tried his best to force a smile, his mouth was open for a long time, but he didn't pop out a word.
"Hey, what are you talking nonsense about here, a prisoner? There's no place for you to talk here! The mayor's personal secretary scolded, and at the same time looked at Sha Juele and Lu Quan on the side.
The two of them didn't care about Yu Changsheng, but stared at the mayor of the town.
The secretary was a little embarrassed and had to shut up.
Seeing that he could not shirk himself, the mayor said with some hesitation:
"This ...... Alas...... I don't want to say this kind of thing explicitly, but after all, far water can't quench the thirst of the near, these three courts are still far away from the Tiangao Emperor in the final analysis, where they are dedicated to studying the heavy army of the empire, and even the relief funds of the basic city-states are often cut off, and it is even more impossible for us to ...... this kind of thing."
Before the mayor could finish speaking, Yu Changsheng actually interrupted him again:
"No, as far as I know, there was once a third-class ironclad regiment stationed here, but this army suddenly left here half a year ago!"
Sha Juele looked at Yu Changsheng with some surprise, he didn't know why he knew this, but he also immediately realized that there was a big problem here, his face changed, and he asked in a deep voice:
"Mayor Mare, what the hell is going on?"
