Chapter 487: Infiltration
Hidden in a secluded alley, Chu Jingtian observed the movement near the bridge with the help of a dream-like induction.
Whether he could quietly cross the bridge and enter the Holy Island became the key to whether his plan could go smoothly, so he didn't dare to take the plunge.
"Da, da, da!"
The sound of neat footsteps suddenly sounded, and a smile appeared on the corner of Chu Jingtian's mouth.
The changing of the guard came, and the moment he had been waiting for had finally arrived, which was one of the reasons why he did not act until midnight.
After a simple handover, the new city guards quickly took over the posts on both sides of the bridge, while the original team members dispersed.
Their mission is over and they can go back to rest.
No one saw it, and just as they were handing over, a small crow jumped into the river, and then floated some distance with the flowing water, jumped onto the bank on the side of the holy island, and disappeared quickly.
Along the alley, Xiao Fei ran quickly for ten minutes, and then jumped into the courtyard of the archives department.
The door that had been open during the day was closed at this time, and the entire archives department was pitch black, and the square three-story building was like an ancient beast, as if it wanted to choose people to devour.
Chu Jingtian's heart moved, and Xiao Fei moved closer to the building little by little.
According to Manson, the three-story building should be guarded by a formation, so he had to take a closer look.
After observing along the perimeter of the three-story building for a moment, Chu Jingtian's brows couldn't help frowning, he didn't see any traces of formation on this building.
Could it be that Manson lied to him, and there was no formation in this archives department at all?
Chu Jingtian couldn't help but have this thought in his heart, but he immediately denied it. Manson had no grievances with him, and he also took his favors, and there was no reason to lie to him at all.
"So, this formation should be inside the building?" Chu Jingtian muttered to himself, and then his mind moved, allowing Xiao Fei to fly directly towards the top of the building.
The moment Xiao Fei landed on the roof of the building, Chu Jingtian smiled.
In the four corners of the roof and in the middle of the building, he saw something like a chimney erected one after another.
Those things were a foot higher than the roof, hollow, and the hole was about the size of two fists, and they were all ventilation channels for the building.
If there were no ventilation passages in a building like the Archives Department, which consisted of small rooms, it would be unusually dull and the air would smell bad.
And when he entered the archives department today, he didn't feel any discomfort, and he thought of this at that time, this archives department would definitely have a ventilation channel.
Therefore, this is also the way he has long thought of entering the interior of the Archives Department, but he didn't dare to venture because of the deterrence of the formation before, and now that he knows that the formation is inside the building, he doesn't have so many taboos.
Secretly calculating the location of the special room he saw during the day, Chu Jingtian asked Xiao Fei to pick a ventilation hole in the center of the roof and jump in.
The ventilation passage extends in all directions, and Xiao Fei walked along the passage to turn left and right for a distance, and then found the exit.
Jumping out of the exit, Dumbo appeared in the hallway.
However, it did not land, but flapped its wings, maintaining a posture of levitating in the void, and Chu Jingtian was worried that it would touch the formation.
Judging the direction, Chu Jingtian asked Xiao Fei to patrol on the third floor.
There was a special room like that on the second floor, so there should be one on the third floor, and he planned to investigate the room on the third floor first, and then go to the second floor.
Sure enough, just a moment later, Xiao Fei stopped in front of a room. The lock used in this room is also a rune lock.
In the Heavenly Jealousy Tower, Chu Jingtian smiled slightly, and then flashed out, and similarly, he was also suspended in the void.
Gently leaning over to the rune lock, he observed it carefully, and the dark environment did not affect him in any way.
After a moment, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the spiritual power within the sea of Chu Heaven's Consciousness surged rapidly to his fingertips, and at the same time, one hand quickly danced above the rune lock.
In just an instant, an esoteric rune condensed in the void, and then directly attached to the rune lock.
"Click!"
As the rune landed on the lock, the rune lock opened directly.
With his rune attainments, this rune lock was simply too pediatric for him.
Carefully opening the door, Chu Jingtian flew directly into the room.
The room was smaller than the archives he had seen during the day, only about sixty or seventy square meters, and there were many bookshelves in the room, but there were not many files on it, only five and a half bookshelves.
Chu Jingtian didn't dare to slack off, and immediately searched for them one by one, the room could only be opened for fifteen minutes, and he had to hurry.
In order to save time and prevent being discovered, Chu Jingtian did not take down those files, but quickly looked at the notes outside those files one by one.
These notes were just a few words, but they were a summary or classification of the entire dossier event, and it was enough for him to judge whether this was the news he was looking for.
Therefore, Chu Jingtian looked very fast, and his gaze almost swept over every layer of the bookshelf.
Night as day, and his super eyesight, were enough that he would not miss a word or a single dossier.
"Master, five minutes have passed. The voice of the dream-like reminder sounded, and at this time, Chu Jingtian had just started to look at the third bookshelf.
A bookshelf is two meters high and five meters wide, and is divided into six levels, each of which contains more than 100 files.
After reading two bookshelves in five minutes, this is already very fast.
"Ten minutes. Chu Jingtian finished reading the fourth bookshelf.
"Thirteen minutes. Chu Jingtian had already started to look at the sixth bookshelf.
"Fourteen minutes. "The sixth bookshelf is halfway through.
On this shelf, the dossier occupies about three-quarters of the shelf.
"Fourteen and a half minutes. "The last quarter of the dossier on the sixth shelf.
"Twenty seconds left. A dream-like voice rang out. As if he hadn't heard it, Chu Jingtian's eyes were like lightning, and he continued to sweep through the last part of the file.
"Ten!"
"Nine!"
“......”
"Five!"
"Huh!" The five words like a dream fell, and Chu's shocking figure flashed, and he quickly rushed out of the room.
"Three!"
"Click!" there was a soft sound, and the rune lock was re-locked.
"......Huh" Chu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and two seconds later, it was estimated that the formation was touched.
But then, he shook his head with some disappointment, and there was no file in this room that he needed.
Then, he flew straight down the stairs to the second floor.
When he arrived at the special room on the second floor, he effortlessly opened the rune lock, and Chu Jingtian flashed into the room.
Immediately, a hint of helplessness appeared on his face.
The size of this room was about the same as the one on the third floor, but the files in this room had nearly twenty bookshelves, and he would definitely not be able to read them all at once.
But for a moment, his helpless look was put away, and then his eyes were like lightning, and he began to quickly sweep the files.
In the fourteenth minute and fifty seconds, Chu Jingtian rushed out of the room and locked the door, with helplessness on his face.
He had looked through nearly six bookshelves, but he still couldn't find the information he needed.
Looking at the closed door, he hesitated to open it again.
He didn't know what the interval between the doors of this room would be, if it was an hour or two, then if he opened it now, then it would definitely touch the formation.
After hesitating for a moment, for the sake of safety, Chu Jingtian decided not to open the door of this room again.
His gaze swept over the other rooms, he was looking for someone who was interested to go in and have a look, maybe he could find some clues for the Terrans, but looking at the copper lock hanging at the door, he dismissed his attention.
These copper locks, he didn't have any difficulty in violently destroying them, but that would undoubtedly touch the formation.
To him, these copper locks were even more difficult to deal with than the rune locks.
Shaking his head helplessly, he didn't dare to stay any longer, dodged into the Heavenly Jealousy Tower, and asked Xiaofei to take him away.
An hour later, Xiao Fei returned to Chu Jingtian's room without danger.
After reporting the safety of Yemo and Cang Ye, he sat on the bed and pondered.
Tonight's operation was a success, but it was not a success.
He infiltrated the archives and saw the files, which he hadn't alarmed anyone, but he didn't get the information he wanted.
And judging by today's progress, if he wants to read all the files in that special room on the second floor, he will have to sneak into that room at least three more times.
Although he successfully infiltrated today, it does not mean that he can succeed next time, and it undoubtedly increases some risks.
However, he had no choice, and in order to find clues about his parents, no matter how dangerous, he had to do it.
Early the next morning, Chu Jingtian appeared at the office on time.
The whole holy island was peaceful, without the slightest abnormality, and it seemed that the events of last night had indeed left no trace.
Staying until noon, Chu Jingtian returned to the small courtyard, and then waited while cultivating.
At midnight, Chu Jingtian set out again, and then returned to the small courtyard two hours later, this time in fifteen minutes, he read nearly six bookshelves again.
Now, in the special room on the second floor of the archives department, there were close to ten bookshelves of files that he hadn't read.
For the next two days, every day at midnight, Chu Jingtian would go out on time to go to that special room to check the files, and then finally read all the files in that room.
But unfortunately, he couldn't find any clues related to the demon spies.
In other words, his four days of extremely dangerous actions did not bear fruit.
In this regard, Chu Jingtian had no way except to smile bitterly.
However, he was not discouraged, in addition to the Eastern District, there were three other regions on the Holy Island, and among the other three regions, there was also the existence of the Archives Department.
Therefore, his next target has been determined, which is the archives department of other regions.
Although this would make the operation more risky, he had to open up in order to find news of his parents......
