Chapter Seventy-One: Delivered to the Door
“…… Whew......"
"Dongdong...... Dongdong ......"
In the office, Lao Chen was sitting, holding his head with his hands,
Suddenly woke up from a short break, and looked up while panting for breath.
He was too tired before, and when he had a short time, he closed his eyes and rested.
But I accidentally fell asleep, and then I had a dream.
Everything is beautiful in the dream, and the whole world is extraordinarily complete and peaceful.
There is something for the young, there is something for the old, there are no disasters, there are no monsters, and all people are immersed in eternal beauty and happiness.
It seems like a sweet dream.
But Lao Chen in the dream felt extremely panicked, feeling that the happy world was like a lie and an illusion.
It's like a bad world covered with a veil of gorgeous beauty.
And seeing the happy world in a dream is indeed as hazy as something covered.
Then, Lao Chen woke up.
"Hoo ......"
Exhaling again, Lao Chen rubbed his temples and recalled the scene he dreamed of in his dream.
He didn't think it was a simple dream, and under the super high inspiration of taking potions many times,
He basically doesn't dream anymore, and dreaming is nothing more than a super high inspiration Mohu feels something, and the warning given by the dream.
It's like some ordinary people who were overly inspired before, feeling the inexplicable panic of the impending disaster.
Falsehood? Illusion......
Lao Chen chewed on the two words that just came out of his head and paused.
Then he raised his head again,
When he woke up again, he heard a knock outside the door.
"Come in."
"Investigator Tatsu. The transport plane to Wang'an City has been arranged and is ready to take off. ”
An investigator walked in.
Lao Chen looked at him, and after a pause, he nodded again,
"Is it arranged?"
"It's all arranged."
Lao Chen stood up and walked out of the room with the investigator.
……
Wang'an City, on the banks of the Wang'an River.
Jing Chen went back to the old place.
It's just that today he didn't choose to come by himself, but chose to manipulate the puppet.
Come out to see the situation, get some information, and see if there is a distance limit for the puppet control.
Before coming to the banks of the Wang'an River, he had already controlled the puppet to turn into a shadow and circle the city inside and outside the city.
Now it seems that there is no distance limit, and the puppet ability he intuitively feels does not seem to have such a thing.
At this moment, the puppet is standing on the bank of the Wang'an River,
Jing Chen felt like he appeared in the study on the bank of the Wang'an River and in his house at the same time.
This unique perspective and special feeling make Jing Chen feel a little novel when he looks at everything from the perspective of a puppet at the moment.
Not far away, the old acquaintance, Old Man Hong, was still there greeting his guests.
No matter what happens around him or what he becomes, it doesn't seem to affect him from following the guidance of fate.
The fortune-telling stall is like a fixed existence under fate.
This old man Hong is a devout believer in fate, completely controlled by fate, and he has become the embodiment of fate.
But let's talk about how miserable Old Man Hong must be...... It is estimated that he will not be able to die until his fate is undone.
After his fate is reversed, maybe he can continue to live as an ordinary person.
Jing Chen glanced at the old man Hong's stall, and used his flesh and blood ability again, so that the individual who left the old man Hong's stall handed him a stumble, breaking the silk thread of fate.
Waiting for the man to get up inexplicably, and then he found that he had nothing but a little gray fart, and walked away slowly with some doubts.
Jing Chen turned his head back and looked to the other side.
On the other side of the old place where he stood, something magical happened,
Under the squeeze of Old Man Hong's fortune-telling business in the vicinity, there was a new fortune-telling booth today.
Behind the fortune-telling booth, a middle-aged man sits, wearing an old Taoist robe and a bun on his head.
It looks like it's presentable.
However, just like the treatment on Jing Chen's side, under the squeeze of Old Man Hong's business, no one came to the door for a long time.
Is this trying to rub off Old Man Hong's business?
The middle-aged man wearing an old Taoist robe and a professional appearance didn't look very anxious.
looked at Jing Chen, turned around, and smiled at Jing Chen.
Jing Chen looked at the man and paused, then smiled back.
After a pause, Jing Chen turned his gaze back and put down the little horse that he had been carrying in his hand.
I touched the gossip map from the pocket of my clothes, spread it on the ground, and sat down.
Over there, the smiling middle-aged man looked at Jing Chen's stall here, and looked at Jing Chen's side a few more times.
Then, as time went by, he quietly cast his gaze towards Jing Chen from time to time.
Jing Chen sat leisurely at the back of the stall here, and from time to time took a bun and threw it to the blood eagle that fell to his side.
No one came, but it attracted two passing children who were interested in the Blood Eagle.
However, the children passing by at most supported their legs with their hands, and lowered their bodies to look at the step of the blood eagle.
Before he could reach out and try to touch the Blood Eagle, some fear gradually appeared on his face, and he ran away.
Gradually, no one even came.
The Blood Eagle landed on Jing Chen's shoulder again.
Jing Chen reached out and rubbed the feathers on the head of the blood eagle, and the blood eagle bowed his head in accordance with Jing Chen's movements,
“…… Young man, are you accurate in fortune telling here? ”
At this time, an old woman passed in front of Jingchen's stall, and looked at the direction of walking, probably going to line up at Old Man Hong's stall.
Seeing Jing Chen's stall, he looked at it with some curiosity and couldn't help but ask.
"Usually, sometimes not."
can't stand Jing Chen's own hands, change the peep into the future.
Jing Chen smiled at the old woman and answered.
"Oh...... That's right. ”
The old woman answered, and then walked to the stall on Old Man Hong's side and lined up.
Jing Chen smiled again, turned his gaze, and looked at a few old acquaintances on the side of the road not far in front of the stall.
Old acquaintances are naturally Lao Chen and others from the Heterogeneous Bureau.
There were three people in total, Lao Chen, a reptile, and an investigator that Jing Chen had never seen before.
Standing on the side of the road, the three old men turned their eyes and landed on Jing Chen and the middle-aged man who had come to set up a stall one after another.
Because after each departure, I always can't remember Jing Chen's characteristic face and identity information.
Every time Lao Chen and the others came over, they basically used the elimination method to find Jing Chen accurately.
Originally, there were only two stalls, except for the fate believer, the rest must be the mysterious existence on the bank of the Wang'an River.
It's just that...... There is one more booth today.
But fortunately, after only a short pause, Lao Chen and the three of them walked towards Jing Chen's stall.
Probably from some impressions of the lake in my memory, and the way of dialogue, I guessed that the mysterious existence could not be the middle-aged man.
In the end, the method of elimination was used to determine the location of this mysterious being.
“…… Mr. ”
"Investigator Tatsu."
Jing Chen responded with a smile.
Lao Chen confirmed Jing Chen's identity, especially the blood eagle that fell on Jing Chen's shoulder, as if it had activated some memories.
It's just that, looking at Jing Chen, Lao Chen feels somewhat that this mysterious existence is a little strange and special today.
"I'm not here myself, but I'm waiting here in some other way because the investigators from the Bureau of Anomalies want to see me."
Jing Chen felt Lao Chen's somewhat puzzled gaze, and explained directly.
Lao Chen had no doubts and nodded. It is not surprising that there are some special means for this mysterious existence.
Anyway, there is one thing that cannot be impersonated, and that is the forgetfulness of the identity information of this mysterious being.
Even in the face of this being, when I close my eyes and think about it, I still can't remember whether this mysterious existence is old or young, and what it looks like.
Jing Chen turned his gaze and looked at the side of the reptile, the investigator with a raw face.
The investigator first kept looking at Jing Chen, felt Jing Chen's gaze, and subconsciously lowered his head slightly, lowering his gaze, as if maintaining respect for Jing Chen, a mysterious powerhouse.
"This is my colleague, an investigator."
Lao Chen explained simply.
Jing Chen nodded, didn't speak, just turned his eyes to look at Lao Chen again.
“…… Sir, I don't know if you have any knowledge of some recent situations? ”
Lao Chen looked at Jing Chen and said loudly.
"Fountain of Youth?"
"Yes. The Fountain of Youth, in various places, suddenly erupted in the city. Behind it, there are some people who have special abilities to deliberately create the spread of the Fountain of Youth, and consciously spread the influence of the Fountain of Youth. ”
"These are people who have the power to deceive and deceive, suspecting that they are some monster or a believer in God."
Lao Chen nodded and talked about the situation in detail,
"At the same time, this group of people is doing something else like that. For example, the dream dagger probably has something to do with these people......"
Lao Chen said things, Jing Chen basically knew everything.
Many of them were provided to the Bureau of Revelation in the form of the Apocalypse Organization, and the more detailed information that the Bureau investigated on this matter was also shared with the Apocalypse Organization.
"I came to visit you, sir, to know something about the recent events."
After Lao Chen finished speaking, he said to Jing Chen with respect.
Jing Chen glanced at the three of them, pulled Zhang Xiaomazha from the side, and threw them over.
"Sit down."
"Thank you, sir."
There was only one Maza, and Lao Chen sat down, and the reptile and the faceless investigator stood beside Lao Chen.
"Want to know something?"
"About the group with special abilities, and the existence behind the Fountain of Youth."
"Hmm."
Jing Chen responded, and then rubbed the blood eagle standing on his shoulder,
His eyes looked at the three people standing or sitting in front of him.
But most of the attention was on the face-to-face investigator.
At the same time as the investigator walked over to his booth,
Jing Chen felt the familiar, upsetting feeling,
I don't know if his over-perceptual perception is at work, or if it's the result of other abilities.
He didn't even need to tell the difference between the interviewer and the investigator.
I was going to find another believer who probably had the power to deceive God and see how it was.
Now you don't have to look for it, you just send it to the door.
Paying attention, Jing Chen's eyes gradually emerged with a peeping picture of the future.
……
"Take it to the special control room for supervision. Let's see if we can get some information. ”
The glimpse into the future was about an hour or two later.
Because the peep into the future picture can't predict what Jing Chen will do,
The picture I saw now was probably the scene of the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau returning to the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau without getting any information from him.
After the three of them entered the Anomaly.
Lao Chen suddenly said loudly.
Almost instantly, the reptile and Lao Chen shot at the same time,
The shadow that extended from the reptilian crept up on the face-to-face investigator, holding him back.
Lao Chen also shot at the same time, further weakening the ability of this face-facing investigator to resist.
Almost at the moment when Lao Chen's voice fell, the face of the investigator changed,
At first, it was like peeling, and it landed on a piece of clothing, and the whole person appeared farther away.
But even then, it was useless, and shadows crept up his body.
“…… What do you do? Investigator Tatsu ......"
The moment the face-to-face investigator was controlled, his face changed again, and he became a little angry and confused.
It's like an ordinary investigator who was suddenly subdued, and he looked inexplicably sad and angry.
At the same time, there is also a wave of bewitching ability spreading.
It's just that Lao Chen and the reptile are both indifferent.
“…… Well, it looks like both of you have identified me. ”
Immediately after, the investigator's face changed again, and a smile appeared on his face that was flushed with grief just now.
Said casually,
"Let me go, don't worry, I won't run, I'm in the Abnormal Tune Bureau here, where can I run if I run."
The man smiled, still bewitched.
But Lao Chen and the reptile still have no faceless expressions,
But the reptile stepped forward and personally escorted the man away.
“…… Well......"
"Lord...... You are the truth, you are the truth......"
His face changed again, he went crazy, and he said some prayers.
But...... It's still demagogy.
This time, the reptilian expression changed, but it only used more strength and stronger ability to control the face-to-face investigator.
Apparently...... This face-to-face investigator is one of those who wields the power of demagogy.
However, the Bureau of Anomalies is clearly not ignorant.
The Heterogeneous Bureau, which has full experience in fighting monsters, is not weak to that extent.
Apparently...... This person disguised as an investigator has long been controlled by the Bureau of Anomalies.
Being brought to Jing Chen may also be an arrangement.
The picture of the future that I peeked in front of me faded,
Jing Chen looked at the three people in front of him again.
looked at Lao Chen, who lowered his gaze slightly and faced him.
Since Lao Chen came here, he hadn't cast his eyes at the face-to-face investigator a few times.
I don't see the slightest suspicion.
The face-to-face investigator also looked like an ordinary investigator accompanying him, and when he looked at Jing Chen, he was in awe, curious, and nervous in anticipation.
It's just not like a disguised investigator.
It's all acting......
Jing Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
But...... Now like this, Lao Chen will arrest this investigator when he goes back, and he can't see anything.
“…… Investigator Chen, I can only help you find the answer you want in the future. ”
"If there is hope for the future, I can pass it on to you."
"If there is no ......"
Jing Chen looked at Lao Chen, as if everything hadn't started yet, and said this.
Hearing this, Lao Chen paused his movements.
This is something that both he and the reptile know, and he is going to say yes, once this mysterious powerhouse has already said this.
But what I mean by mentioning it at this time is......
Lao Chen paused, still didn't turn his gaze,
He understood a little, and just nodded towards Jing Chen.
"Sir, I understand."
Looking at Lao Chen, he paused, Jing Chen also nodded, and did not speak again.
Just looked at the three people in front of him, and focused again.
……
"Leave him alone."
In the first picture of the future,
A few hours later, Lao Chen and the reptile entered the room of the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau.
The interviewer left on his own.
Obviously, Lao Chen understood Jing Chen's words, and this time he didn't control the disguised investigator again.
"Hmm. I know. ”
The reptile nodded, just in response.
The two of them did not speak again, and looked out of the house one after another.
Immediately after,
This picture of the future fades,
Jing Chen saw another picture of the future.
About the disguised investigator.
……
"Lord...... I am your most faithful believer, and I am willing to spread your glory for you. ”
"Everything you say is the truth, everything you do is the truth......
"I pray, I pray for your coming, for your mercy and attention...... Reshape the truth of this sad and terrible world, remake the truth of this world. ”
"You are the master of the truth, you are the great ...... of the truth"
This is probably somewhere outside of the Bureau of Anomalies.
A group of people with similar faces were kneeling and praying to their Lord.
And this group of people probably has a leader who presides over the entire sadhana.
