Chapter 011: Bai Jiayue
The security officer stared at the stone powder on the ground for two seconds, and then looked at Li He again, showing a look of sudden realization.
But then, his expression changed to confusion: "Trickster? But why have I never seen you? There are a total of three tricksters in Lin Cheng, I know them all, is it...... You're here with the help of the rest of the city? ”
"Nope." Li He shook his head lightly and explained, "I am a folk trickster in Lin Cheng. ”
According to the notes, there are two kinds of tricksters in terms of attribution - one is the official trickster, and the other is the folk trickster, also known as the free trickster.
Official tricksters, who are employed by officials in various cities, will be favored by a large number of official resources, are well treated, have a lot of room for growth and progress, and their relatives and friends will be properly arranged under the official operation, and there are many benefits. However, there are also disadvantages, that is, it is necessary to solve the large and small ghost incidents in a city according to the official arrangement, which is not free and has high risks.
Folk tricksters are independent individuals who live in the city like ordinary people. When encountering a strange incident, it may be solved, or it may be wise to protect oneself, and it is completely up to one's own thoughts. There is no official preferential treatment, and growth and progress also need to be explored by yourself, and once the treacherous spirit is out of control, there is a high probability of death without official rescue, but the risk is usually lower, and life is freer.
But then again, even if the folk tricksters do not obey the official management, the officials will try their best not to conflict with the folk tricksters, and they will also try their best to win them over and strive to turn the folk tricksters into official tricksters.
After all, there is no city that thinks it has too many tricksters - in the face of an endless stream of tricksters, no amount of tricksters is enough.
And in a small city like Lin Cheng, there are only three official tricksters, which can be said to be extremely scarce, and it is impossible to deal with all the tricky incidents in a timely manner.
After hearing Li He's identity, the security officer suddenly became a little excited, and his attitude became respectful.
"Folk tricksters? That...... That's great! Thank you very much...... Hm, thanks for helping, is there anything we need to do? The vigilante asked quickly.
"By the way, we just contacted the official trickster Ms. Bai Jiayue, she is currently free, she should come over soon, if you don't mind, you can wait a while, and enter the factory with the other party to solve this incident, it is also safer."
"Yes." Li He nodded, thought for a while, and said to the security officer, "You can first introduce me to the situation of this incident." ”
"Okay." The security officer hurriedly responded, and quickly said, "I don't know if you are a native of Lincheng, if you were born here, you should know that Lincheng Fu'an Chemical Factory is a famous factory in our Lincheng."
The textile chemical raw materials he produces have markets in many cities in the alliance, which not only provides us with a large amount of taxes, but also helps develop a series of textile factories such as Dream Weaving, Silkworm and White Feather. ”
Li He nodded when he heard this, he knew about this.
The vigilante continued: "Everything was normal, but it happened more than an hour ago. We officially received a call from the police that there was a fire inside the factory and a small explosion.
After receiving the call, we immediately arranged for the nearest fire brigade to rush to the rescue, but before we could get close to the fire scene in the factory, a red mist erupted, which is the forbidden area that you trickster said, appearing, instantly engulfing about one-sixth of the area in the center of the factory.
According to statistics, in addition to the 12 members of the fire brigade, at least more than 200 workers are trapped inside, and all of them are now missing. We tried to rescue but were unsuccessful and caused some casualties. There is no choice but to cordon off the scene and wait for the official trickster to come, and you arrive first. ”
"That's it......" Li He nodded, chatted with the security officer for a while, noticed that the security officer caught a glimpse of something, turned his head to look not far away, and then pointed to the other party: "Ms. Bai Jiayue has arrived." ”
Li He followed the eyes of the security officer, and saw a black police car flashing its police lights and speeding up, stopping sharply not far away, the rear door opened, and the official trickster walked down.
It seems that the other party is a little too young, and his face looks like he is no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, like a high school girl who is still in school.
The other party was wearing a white Uesugi and khaki trousers underneath, dressed in a plain manner, in the style of a little girl next door.
The only thing that is a little unusual is that the other party has dyed a strand of red hair, which is particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of the full head of black hair.
After getting out of the car, the other party took out a long package more than one meter long from the car, carried it behind him, and walked quickly.
The security officer quickly stepped forward and said, "Ms. Bai Jiayue, you are finally here, by the way, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Li He, a folk trickster who came first, and originally intended to help us solve this tricky incident together, I don't know what you think......"
"Yes." Bai Jiayue glanced up at Li He, nodded her head and said.
"By the way, Ms. Bai, do you need me to give you a briefing?"
"Well, no...... I've heard it in the car. ”
"Well, do you have any more to ask for?"
"Nothing to ask for, I'll go in." Bai Jiayue said, tilting her head slightly to look at Li He, "Let's go?" ”
"Okay."
Without being verbose, the two of them quickly entered the cordon and walked towards the depths of the chemical plant, and after a while, their bodies disappeared into the red mist.
……
Inside the Forbidden Zone.
Different from what the outside world sees, this place is no longer filled with red mist, but a thick white mist constantly drifting, obscuring the gaze looking into the distance.
There was a pungent sour smell in the air around them, and I don't know if it was caused by the forbidden area or the leakage of raw materials from the chemical plant.
Li He and Bai Jiayue frowned slightly, remained cautious, and carefully explored forward.
Fifty meters, one hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters.
After walking a distance, through a cloud of white fog, a factory appeared in the field of vision.
The factory building is obviously not the original building of a chemical plant, with a strong outdated style, like a small workshop in the township a few decades ago.
The whole is made of bricks and tiles, more than four meters high, more than ten meters wide, more than 20 meters long, the outer wall is seriously damaged, the cracks are dense, the corners are covered with moss, many factory doors are lost, and it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.
In the factory building on the left, there is a faint chaotic sound, a bit like a shout, and a bit like a fight.
Li He and Bai Jiayue glanced at each other, nodded lightly, reached a consensus, and approached the factory where the sound was made.
At the door of the factory, the noise heard was louder, and the two stopped and said almost in unison: "Be careful." ”
Look at each other and carefully push open the door to enter.
In the factory, a bloody scene appeared in the field of vision.
