Depart at 8 a.m.

It was already early afternoon when the high-speed train arrived in Shanqing City.

So the two of them, who blew the cool air conditioner all the way, just got out of the car and experienced the excitement of stewing themselves in an iron pot.

The summer heat in Sanqing City is simply unreasonable.

"38 degrees, oh my God, the temperature will rise in the next few days......"

The fair-skinned face was steamed red by the high temperature, Ruan Xiaolian looked at the weather forecast, let out a wail, turned her head to hit Yan Jing beside her, and as a result, she was shocked as if she had hit a stone, and couldn't help but look up at the latter with a surprised face.

Iron-clad?

"It's only June, so put up with it."

took out a portable small fan from his backpack and handed it to Ruan Xiaolian, Yan Jing grabbed the suitcase and went straight to the exit of the station.

Fortunately, there were basically taxis waiting at the exit of the high-speed railway, and the two got on the bus and went straight to Shanqing University.

There is no need to elaborate on the process of reporting.

With Yan Jing accompanying her throughout the whole process, Ruan Xiaolian, who only carried a small bag, was much more relaxed than other students who were dragging their luggage and sweating profusely.

"I won't enter the girls' dormitory, the impact is not good, you take the things yourself, I'll find a hotel near your school to settle down, contact me at any time if there is anything, Shanqing City has not been peaceful recently, you must pay attention to safety when you go out to play at night."

Looking at the many young and beautiful girls coming and going in front of the dormitory building, Yan Jing didn't plan to go in and accept onlookers.

In fact, even standing outside the dormitory, Yan Jing's existence still attracted the attention of many people, his handsome appearance, the strong fitness materials that the short shirt could not hide at all, and the mature temperament that was obviously different from ordinary students, the return rate was really not low.

If it weren't for Ruan Xiaolian standing on the side, a bold girl should have come up to say hello.

"Don't worry, I'll be in the school until the bloody soul case is solved."

Xiao Lian, who had long been told by Yan Jing on the road about the danger of the bloody soul seeking case, was still a little scared, and nodded busily.

"Hmm...... By the way, you have been admitted to college until now, I haven't given you a gift, oh, this is a talisman jade plate that I specially asked a friend to ask for in the temple, I heard that it is very spiritual, and it can turn evil into good fortune and attract wealth. ”

took out a white jade pendant strung with red rope from his pocket and handed it to Xiaolian.

The jade pendant is engraved with a lion body, a sheep's head, and a strange beast with wings on its back.

The origin of the jade pendant was naturally not asked for by someone as Yan Jing said, but a defensive foreign object that he purchased in the torch market for a hundred torches, and once the holder's life was in danger, it would activate autonomously.

Yan Jing thought that giving away this jade pendant would likely expose his identity, but the recent supernatural events in Shanqing City made him have to be careful, compared to Xiaolian's safety, it didn't matter whether his identity was exposed or not.

"Haha~ The little guy engraved on this jade pendant looks so strange, but the texture of this jade doesn't look cheap, right?"

Holding the jade pendant in her hand and looking at it, Ruan Xiaolian couldn't help but ask.

"Fifty thousand, this is still discounted by others, you must take it properly, it is best to carry it with you, don't show it to others casually."

I wanted to say that it was cheaper, but I was afraid that Xiaolian, who had a big personality, would be left indiscriminately, so I simply quoted a higher price.

"Brother, you must have been deceived, I don't want this jade pendant, you hurry up and return the money."

"What do you think, this is what I finally begged for, how can I return it, you just take it, I still have to take a step in advance, remember that if something strange happens, you must contact me as soon as possible!"

Without giving Xiaolian a chance to refuse, Yan Jing waved his hand, turned straight and left along the tree-lined path, the former shouted twice behind him, and seeing that he never looked back, he had to carefully put the jade around his neck.

Preparing to leave Shanqing University along the way he came, Yan Jing looked at the live broadcast replay of the trickster on his phone, wrote down the number they gave before, and prepared to find an opportunity to contact the other party later.

I accidentally passed by the playground and heard a burst of cheers from inside, so I couldn't help but turn my head to look over and find that it was a group of men and women who were testing various items under the scorching sun.

Yan Jing didn't go to college, but he also knew that physical testing was a normal thing.

The problem is that the physical test items are somewhat peculiar.

Yan Jing saw two trucks with official insignia painted on the outside parked in the middle of the playground, and the students went in and out one by one, but the guards were not nurses, but several men and women with tall postures and obvious military training.

This is clearly not normal.

Yan Jing stood at the door and stopped a boy who had just come out of it and asked,

"Classmate, what are you doing here?"

"Physical test for fresh graduates...... Well, I don't know what the situation is. ”

Glancing at Yan Jing, who was in a sturdy physique, the boy shrugged his shoulders and continued,

"The school recently informed us that the government is going to open a new department, and there is a huge shortage of personnel, so we come to our side to recruit people temporarily, and if you pass the customs, you can directly become a civil servant.

"I see, thanks."

Yan Jing took one last look at the playground and turned to leave before they could notice him.

The boy didn't give much information, but it was enough for Yan Jing to make a guess.

As previously thought, the official government has apparently learned of the existence of the torch through various channels, and has also begun to pay attention to sudden paranormal events across the country and around the world.

In the face of this very particular situation, it is clear that past experience alone is not enough to deal with it properly.

It is also particularly important to have a department dedicated to such situations.

However, judging from their actions of conducting various exams and psychological tests on the one hand, and taking the opportunity to physically test many students on the other, it is estimated that there is some idea of finding out the ember apostles that may be hiding in the student body.

After all, as long as you become an Ember Apostle and have experienced the event mission, then the changes in all aspects will inevitably make the former significantly different from ordinary people.

Leaving Shanqing University, Yan Jing strolled into a nearby park.

When he reappeared on the park bench, he had already changed into a different look.

Tall, bald, without eyebrows, with raised cheekbones and a fleshy face, he can be called a fierce middle-aged man.

At first glance, it is definitely the most suspicious potential criminal in various suspense movies.

Yan Jing was also taken aback when he saw his respectful face, but helplessly, this was already good, and he looked like a person.

If he really transforms into a terrifying appearance like Shura Yaksha after being transformed by evil arts, Yan Jing estimates that someone will call the police as soon as he walks out of the park, and when the time comes, let alone cooperate with the authorities, it is estimated that he will immediately become one of the wanted targets......

Get up and walk to a nearby public phone booth and dial the phone number given by the Spy Section.

In about five seconds or so, the call was connected.

"Hello, this is the Detective Column Group, how can I help you?"

On the other end of the line was a gentle female voice.

"I have a way to find the murderer of the bloody soul case, and find someone who can make a decision to talk to me."

Yan Jing didn't bother to hint around the bush, it didn't fit his current personality.
