12: What, you said he caught the Shenxu with his bare hands?

Cangnan City, Peacekeeping Bureau.

The members of 136 Squad were sitting inside, except for Captain Chen Muye.

Zhao Kongcheng sat on a stool, looking dejected.

The others didn't know what had happened, so they asked,

“Old Zhao, what exactly happened on your side? Why the long face?”

“Yeah, Old Zhao, there’s no hurdle you can’t get over. If something’s bothering you, just spill it!”

Zhao Kongcheng looked embarrassed and recounted everything that had happened in the alley.

Silence!

The expressions on their faces varied.

Finally, Vice Captain Wu Xiangnan broke the silence.

“So, you’re saying that by the time you arrived, those twenty-odd Ghost Faces had already been killed? And 136, who experienced this incident, ran off with that student?”

Zhao Kongcheng nodded.

Pfft!

Hong Ying laughed, and the others were also trying hard to hold back their laughter.

Zhao Kongcheng became even more embarrassed, “What are you laughing at? As you said, that student is suspected to be a God’s Proxy of the Seraphim.”

“And 136 is someone who can escape from the Captain’s hands. Isn’t it normal that I couldn’t catch them?”

“No!” Leng Xuan clutched his stomach, “We’re saying you actually believed that brat’s nonsense!”

Leng Xuan broke the ice, and the others couldn't hold it in anymore, bursting into loud laughter.

Night Watchers usually had their nerves stretched taut, so this situation was a rare moment of relaxation.

Wu Xiangnan clapped his hands, signaling everyone to pause for a moment.

“It’s alright, Old Zhao, it’s not a big problem, after all, Cangnan City hasn’t had any major disturbances yet!”

Warm Qi Ink also chimed in,

“Exactly, exactly, but I didn’t expect the guy suspected to be a God’s Proxy to be just a high school student who just stepped into the Zhan Realm. I thought a Klein Realm expert had arrived!”

Just then, with a creak, the door opened.

A man wearing a dark red cloak walked in, it was Chen Muye.

There were still bloodstains on his face, and his steps were heavy, indicating he had been through a fierce battle.

“Captain!”

“Captain, are you alright?”

Chen Muye waved his hand, “I’m fine, but the Ghost Face King escaped!”

Upon hearing this news, the squad members’ expressions immediately turned serious.

“However, it was severely wounded, and its escape afterwards was at the cost of its Origin. It is now eager to recover its Origin, so it definitely won’t get far!”

Wu Xiangnan suddenly pulled out a map, and the marked location was the Old City!

“If it’s at the cost of its Origin, it definitely won’t leave here, because only here are there enough people. Other areas are too far, and the Ghost Face King won’t take that risk!”

Chen Muye looked at his Vice Captain, whose thinking was always very clear.

“Then seal off this area. We absolutely cannot let it endanger ordinary people!”

Suddenly, Chen Muye remembered something.

“Just now, I heard you discussing the God’s Proxy and 136 outside the door?”

Zhao Kongcheng quickly recounted his previous encounter to Chen Muye.

Chen Muye was completely petrified!

The preceding events were not unusual, but when he heard that 136 had grabbed Lin Qi Ye, who was glowing all over, Chen Muye couldn't stay calm.

“You’re saying that high school student was about to attack, but 136 grabbed his wrist?”

Zhao Kongcheng nodded, “That’s what happened! What’s wrong, Captain?”

Damn it!

Chen Muye really wanted to curse right now.

“God Ruins! Michael, codename 003, the Angel King’s God Ruins! He just grabbed it with his bare hands?”

“Holy crap, why didn’t I notice?”

“Yeah! Such a big, thick pillar of light!”

“It must have been very hot!”

The squad members only realized it then, but they couldn't be blamed.

How many people could actually come into contact with something like God Ruins?

Before, they had only learned about it from material, so they had no real concept of it!

Zhao Kongcheng muttered, “Grabbing God Ruins with bare hands, that’s so damn cool!”

Chen Muye sighed, thought for a moment, and said,

“Let’s put the matter of 136 aside for now! That God’s Proxy of the Seraphim must be brought back. Such a big commotion, the Ancient God Church must have noticed.”

“If that high school student falls into their hands, it will be terrible!”

Perhaps wanting to make up for his previous performance,

Zhao Kongcheng puffed out his chest, “Don’t worry, Captain, leave this matter to me!”

“Didn’t he run away? Can you still find him?” Si Xiaonan mumbled from the side.

“Hahaha! Everyone, do you really think I, Zhao, am just a freeloader? I kept a trick up my sleeve.”

Everyone’s eyes immediately changed, their gazes focused on Zhao Kongcheng.

Zhao Kongcheng said proudly, “That guy was wearing the uniform of Second High. Tomorrow, I’ll go stake him out!”

...

Early the next morning, Zhao Kongcheng arrived at the entrance of Second High to stake out.

Afraid of missing Lin Qi Ye, he purposely came an hour early.

Students arriving for school had already entered the school gate, one after another.

Ding-a-ling!

The class bell rang.

Zhao Kongcheng sat on the curb, a bit disheveled!

Where is he?

Could it be that I missed him?

That shouldn't be!

Zhao Kongcheng’s eyesight was very good, and he had also memorized Lin Qi Ye’s appearance.

After much thought, Zhao Kongcheng felt that the reason must be with himself.

Never mind, I’ll wait until noon dismissal to see what happens!

The snack stall owners gradually came over to prepare for a new day of work.

Uncle Li’s “Pinruo King’s Special Crispy Potato” stall also started business.

“Little Song! Look at that person on the curb, he’s so strange!”

Song Zhong had just finished peeling a sack of potatoes. Hearing Uncle Li’s voice, he looked in that direction.

Whoa!

Isn’t that Zhao Kongcheng?

Song Zhong knew this guy was waiting for Lin Qi Ye.

Too bad, if nothing unexpected happened, Lin Qi Ye should have walked into Mental Hospital of Gods last night.

That guy didn't come to school today; instead, he went to Sunshine Mental Hospital to find a way to treat Nix, the Goddess of Night!

“Could his wallet have been stolen? No money in his pocket?”

Song Zhong casually brushed him off.

Uncle Li looked closely, “You know, you might be right, that person looks very anxious! He probably didn’t even eat breakfast!”

Uncle Li packed a large portion of crispy potatoes and handed it to Song Zhong!

“Little Song, go take it to him! It’s not easy being away from home; help when you can!”

Song Zhong paused, thinking to himself: Uncle Li, you’re really nice!

He took the box of potatoes and walked over to Zhao Kongcheng.

Zhao Kongcheng was just about to open Candy Crush to pass the time when he saw a young man wearing a white hat walk over.

“Is something wrong?” Zhao Kongcheng asked.

“Our boss asked me to bring you something to eat. It’s hot, and it’s not easy!” Song Zhong reached out and handed it over.

“Uh!” Zhao Kongcheng was about to refuse, but his stomach uncooperatively rumbled.

“Uh, thank you!”

“You’re welcome!” Song Zhong replied, then casually asked, “Are you waiting for someone?”
