Summer Vacation Chapter 4: Preliminary Investigation
After Lin Shaorong got into the car, he found that there was another person sitting in front of the co-pilot, who seemed to be wearing the school uniform of the Light Realm Academy, and should be a student.
And the man kept observing Lin Shaorong through the rearview mirror after he got into the car, which made Lin Shaorong a little uncomfortable.
After Lin Shaorong touched his face, he found that there was nothing on his face, so he asked, "What does it look like on my face?" ”
Seeing that the man didn't speak, Lin Shaorong no longer had a hot face and a cold buttocks, and then pulled the topic to Zhou Wen and asked:
"Mr. Zhou Wen, I want to confirm one thing again, you said that you went to the scene to check it out, can you tell me more about the situation at the scene."
When Zhou Wen heard the question, he replied: "Well, because something is isolating us, and we are only conducting a survey on the periphery, I don't know a lot of detailed things, after all, I only received the news yesterday that I was appointed as the captain of this operation." ”
Hearing Lin Shaorong say again: "The Light Realm Academy will rest assured that a teacher will be the captain of the action, will this be a bit too blind to trust you?" ”
When the student heard this, he said angrily:
"I said what kind of thing are you, you dare to question the decision-making of our Light Realm Academy, and who else told you that Instructor Zhou Wen is a teacher?"
Lin Shaorong looked at Zhou Wen in the driver's seat noncommittally, and the student spoke again: "Instructor Zhou Wen is the actual combat instructor of our Light Realm Academy, and he is also a well-known A-level armed protector in the War Realm Association. ”
Hearing this, Lin Shaorong understood that Zhou Wen was not a teacher but an instructor, and immediately questioned more, so he asked:
"Why are you hiding your identity from us? You need to know that the identity of the principal is also crucial in the commission, what else do you not tell us? ”
Zhou Wen heard Lin Shaorong's inquiry, looked at the student next to him, and couldn't help scratching his head and explaining:
"Actually, I didn't deliberately want to hide my identity, mainly because when I went to other firms before, I also showed my identity as an instructor, but others rejected me on the spot, and then I realized that the seriousness of some things will make people retreat, but I didn't hide anything else, and I said everything I should have said before."
Lin Shaorong agreed with this: "Also, if you are an instructor to make this commission, then the seriousness of this problem will have to rise a few more steps." In other words, we will also think carefully about whether we should accept this commission. ”
Zhou Wen asked with some doubts: "Now that you know, you won't retreat, right?" ”
"That's not true, since we have accepted the commission, we will execute it until the commission is completed, you can rest assured, and your identity is just the price of our consideration of this commission."
The student on the other side was also a little annoyed when he saw the two talking, because in his opinion, Lin Shaorong didn't listen to his previous question at all, and he didn't take himself seriously in communication.
"I said, which onion are you?"
"Instructor Zhou Wen, why are you looking for such a waste to get on the car, I can't feel any boundary breath on him, he is just an ordinary person, is Tianyan Office playing with us?" The student complained.
"Yao Tao, calm down a little, he just went with me to investigate the scene, and their people will arrive later." Zhou Wen comforted the student named Yao Tao.
Yao Tao said dissatisfiedly: "That's why I suggest not to ask for help from an office, a private firm like them is not as good as our college to deal with it ourselves, and there is no reliable law firm." ”
Zhou Wen looked at Lin Shaorong in the back seat through the rearview mirror and said: "Don't mind, although Yao Tao speaks a little prickly, but he is also considered for responsibility, he is also a member of the student union, because there are members of the student union who are currently missing, so it is inevitable that he will be a little excited." ”
Yao Tao retorted: "Instructor Zhou Wen, I'm not very excited, I'm seeking truth from facts, not to mention that we are looking for help from the office, they have to delay the time to disrupt our arrangement, and send an ordinary person to join in, it is simply unreasonable." ”
Yao Tao maintained a contemptuous attitude towards Lin Shaorong, and he spoke with a gun and a stick, and his disgust was not concealed.
But Lin Shaorong just sat in the back seat and listened quietly, without the slightest wave of emotion, just staring at Zhou Wen in front of him, without revealing a trace of dissatisfaction on his face.
Under being so criticized, he can still maintain an indifferent attitude, which makes Zhou Wen pay a little attention to this teenager.
Seeing that Yao Tao was still going to talk endlessly, Zhou Wen also immediately asked him to shut up and said: "Enough, I don't have the heart to listen to you complain here, since he wants to go to the scene to investigate, let him go, anyway, the plan has changed, and now I have to think on the bright side." ”
Lin Shaorong heard this and spoke: "Don't worry, I won't trouble you." ”
After speaking, Lin Shaorong tilted his head out of the car window, watching one scenery after another speed by, with indescribable depth in his eyes.
Zhou Wen just took in this scene from the rearview mirror, and he seemed to see a depth that was not what this age should have.
"It's really unlucky, don't add trouble, you're already in trouble when you come." Yao Tao shut up again after speaking.
The atmosphere in the car was a little deserted after this contradictory rendering, and the car gradually drove towards Zhonghai Forest.
After a long drive, the three of them finally arrived at the outskirts of the Zhonghai Forest, and what greeted them was a wall of purple and gray light blocking a large area.
Zhou Wen said: "It is this wall that cuts off all the perimeters of the forest, and it is easy to enter, but after entering, there is no news, so now we are ready to assemble on the periphery." ”
Seeing such a scene, Lin Shaorong made a decision in his heart and said, "It seems that the matter is much more serious than I imagined." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Wen hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What did you find?" ”
And Yao Tao still said with a contemptuous attitude: "Hmph, everyone knows the seriousness of the matter, and you will fool people with these few words?" ”
Lin Shaorong didn't pay attention to Yao Tao as if he was air, but continued to talk to Zhou Wen.
Yao Tao was even more annoyed when he saw this, and wanted to step forward to teach him a lesson, but this stinky boy who ignored him was blocked by Zhou Wen.
"If you're okay, go and rest first, and by the way, gather people, I have a task to deliver." Zhou Wen blocked Yao Tao and said.
And Yao Tao had no choice but to stop, glanced at Lin Shaorong and said, "You're lucky." ”
Zhou Wen also shook his head when he saw Yao Tao leaving, apologized to Lin Shaorong, and said:
"I'm sorry, don't look at Yao Tao so aggressive, in fact, he is already a sophomore in high school and is also a B-level protector, it is inevitable that he also has some strong self-esteem, maybe he is not very mature in emotional intelligence, I hope you don't take what he said before to heart, I will teach him a good lesson after this commission is over."
And Lin Shaorong didn't take it seriously, and talked to Zhou Wen again and asked:
"As a combat instructor or a member of the association, you really don't know what that wall is?"
Zhou Wen shook his head and said: "Although I am a member of the association and a practical combat instructor, my responsibility is to maintain stability and security in the realm, control the lawbreakers in the realm, and kill the enemy in a direct sense in actual combat. ”
After hearing this, Lin Shaorong also nodded and began to state his judgment.
"That's the Broken Demon Wall."
"What?" Hearing Lin Shaorong's words, Zhou Wen was a little incredulous, and shouted out in surprise.
"I said don't be kidding, I've seen the Broken Demon Wall, it's not like that." Zhou Wen was anxious to deny this judgment.
And Lin Shaorong opened the information card and called up the file and said: "This is different from the conventional Demon Breaking Wall you know, this is a Demon Breaking Wall that directly acts on the entry and exit between realms, not the Demon Breaking Wall of some otherworldly defense means." ”
"What, why are you so sure?" Zhou Wen threw out his own questions.
"In the Tianyan Office, there are a few senior brothers who have entrusted me before, and they have come into contact with this kind of thing, and I have also learned about this kind of thing in detail."
Lin Shaorong continued:
"There are several kinds of broken demon walls, and there are three kinds of ones I know, the first one is what you know, using magic and runes to compose, the surface of the wall will have magic and runes flash flowing, the main role is to resist invasion and attack, any effective offensive means will be cut off in front of the wall."
"The second type, composed of magic power and magic weapons, has many ways of action, changing the use of magic weapons can make the broken magic wall form a partition prison, which is used to block the target, or capture the target, because the magic will operate with the magic weapon, so the judgment method depends on the structure of the magic weapon."
"The third type, which you see now, is completely made of magic power, unlike the other two, this kind of magic wall that is completely condensed by magic power determines the effect according to the attributes of magic power, but there is no doubt that the effect is to strengthen the connection between the worlds, so that the worlds can cross each other, so as to achieve a large number of people for long-distance teleportation."
"And this kind of Broken Demon Wall has an entrance and an exit, so according to your people who never came out after entering, and then the wall has no runes, and the shape is not like a magic weapon, I judge that this is the entrance to the third type of Broken Demon Wall."
Hearing Zhou Wen's emotions, he couldn't suppress it anymore, and he was even more shocked to hear these things he hadn't touched much from the mouth of a 16-year-old boy.
What's more important is the current situation, Zhou Wen has completely believed Lin Shaorong's words after listening to it, but what happened next made him even more creepy.
"If that's what you said, then this is an invasion of the Alien Realm." Zhou Wen asked nervously.
"Eight or nine is not far from ten." Lin Shaorong nodded.
"No, this matter may be more serious than I thought, this is in the city of Central City, I have to report to my superiors and contact the Legendary Protector immediately."
Just as Zhou Wen took out the information card and was about to contact, Lin Shaorong stopped him and said:
"Don't worry, if the intelligence is wrong, it is likely to cause more confusion, and it is not too late for you to let me analyze it before making a decision."
Zhou Wen saw that Lin Shaorong was still indifferent, and his heart was also tight, and he thought: "This is not a trivial matter, how can he be so calm." ”
Although he was a little annoyed by Lin Shaorong's attitude, Zhou Wen did not have a seizure, but asked:
"What else did you find?"
And this time, Lin Shaorong didn't speak immediately, but took Zhou Wen to the middle of the camp and slowly approached the Broken Demon Wall.
Seeing this, Zhou Wen pulled Lin Shaorong over and shouted:
"Are you crazy?"
Seeing this, the rest of the camp also stepped forward to stop and accuse.
Yao Tao also walked out of it, and when he saw Lin Shaorong, he was even more furious, and directly stepped forward and said to Zhou Wen:
"Instructor Zhou Wen, you have also seen that this kid will only cause us trouble when he comes here, do you want to kill everyone here if he makes such a move?"
Lin Shaorong ignored everyone, and this time slowly walked to the side of the Broken Demon Wall and stopped.
Zhou Wen still has the eyesight, originally saw Lin Shaorong walking towards the Broken Demon Wall again, and wanted to step forward to stop it again, but saw Lin Shaorong take out the instrument from his bag and stopped his movements.
Yao Tao didn't notice this, and walked towards Lin Shaorong to stop his current behavior and said: "I don't know what you want to do, now the situation is unclear, you will only make things more out of control if you make such a mess, did you hear me speak." ”
Seeing that Lin Shaorong was still indifferent and ignoring himself, Yao Tao was even more angry and said to the others, come and teach me a good lesson by pulling this stinky boy aside.
Hearing Yao Tao's order, someone stepped forward to teach Lin Shaorong a lesson, and Zhou Wen had no choice but to order:
"Stop!"
"I'm the captain of operations here, and I'm not allowed to act without my orders."
Zhou Wen spoke, and others did not dare to disobey, but Yao Tao still did not hesitate and said:
"Instructor Zhou Wen, we don't know much about the current situation, what are you letting this kid make trouble for, it's simply unreasonable to let an ordinary person investigate this matter, in case you stab any basket, we must be responsible for this responsibility."
Everyone else also looked at Zhou Wen, and their attitudes were all in recognition of what Yao Tao said.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Wenzheng was thinking about how to explain it, because Lin Shaorong had also said before that it was only a one-sided judgment at present, and it still needed to be analyzed, because he was not good at revealing the previous things, which would cause unnecessary panic and trouble, after all, most of the members on the scene were students and faculty members of the academy who were sent to assist, and there was no way to make everyone obey the rules.
When Zhou Wen was entangled, Lin Shaorong spoke:
"Don't worry, if something happens, our Tianyan Office will be responsible for it, and I will guarantee this to you."
And Yao Tao also fought back: "What kind of security do you have, take your own head?" ”
The rest of the people were talking about it in the same way.
Lin Shaorong still ignored Yao Tao's aggressive words and other people's accusations, finished his work, walked to Zhou Wen, and after talking with Zhou Wen, Zhou Wen dismissed the others, but Yao Tao still stayed by his side.
Zhou Wen was also a little angry when he saw that Yao Tao was not leaving, and directly ordered:
"Yao Tao, my words here are orders, and you, as the leader of this main exploration operation, must obey the order."
"Therefore I now order you again and give you a warning, from now on hurry back to your post to wait for the dispatch, and keep the others in order, I do not want to see such undisciplined behavior again, and if I do it again, I will be severely punished."
Yao Tao was unconvinced and said: "Instructor Zhou Wen, there is no explanation for what this kid does, in case something big happens, we may encounter accidents before we are prepared, we should guard against these things instead of letting this kid come here." ”
Zhou Wen roared angrily: "Then I will let you gather and give an explanation, now I count to three, if you don't return to your post, then I will cancel your position as the leader of the investigation operation team, and report to the academy to give you a severe punishment for not obeying orders, one." ”
Hearing that Zhou Wen began to report the number, Yao Tao had no choice but to swallow his anger and leave, and before leaving, he glanced at Lin Shaorong with resentment.
Lin Shaorong didn't have any thoughts about this situation, and completely ignored Yao Tao's last glance of resentment.
