Chapter 18 Farewell
Nighttime, Peace Office.
Chen Muyi was wearing an apron and cooking in the kitchen, his eyes seemingly filled with unspoken thoughts.
Wen Qimo applied medicine to Lin Qiye, who was covered in injuries, and said some comforting words with a smile.
Without exception, all members of Squad 136 gathered at the office tonight.
As soon as Jiang Ye walked in, he smelled the aroma coming from the kitchen, and... the smell of Zhao Kongcheng smoking.
"Handsome little brother, you're here! Come and sit down." Hongying stood up and waved to him as soon as she saw him.
Jiang Ye nodded and walked over, sitting down next to her.
As soon as he sat down, Zhao Kongcheng stopped laughing.
"Old Zhao, what's wrong? Weren't you just lecturing Qi Ye? Now that Xiao Ye is here, you're not saying anything?" Wen Qimo said with amusement.
"Go away, go away." Zhao Kongcheng waved his hand, somewhat embarrassed, seemingly unwilling to mention being defeated by Jiang Ye today.
His gaze then fell on Jiang Ye. "Kid, let's have another match after dinner. I wasn't prepared today."
"It would be great to get blown up," Lin Qiye said, wiping the wounds on his face with medicine.
"Hey, don't blame me for being rough, this is to take responsibility for your future life."
Lin Qiye turned his head away, "I know, you've said that eight hundred times."
Zhao Kongcheng smiled, took a drag of his cigarette, and looked at Jiang Ye, raising his eyebrows slightly.
Jiang Ye nodded, feigning helplessness, "Okay, we can practice after we finish eating."
"By the way, what day is it today? Why..."
“Handsome brother, Lao Zhao is leaving tomorrow. The captain asked us to have dinner together tonight to see him off,” Hongying explained beside him.
Zhao Kongcheng is leaving!
Jiang Ye frowned. Why had the plot reverted to its original state?
He thought about it and figured it was probably because Zhao Kongcheng had used the Ghost God's Guidance technique and survived, which the Night Watch higher-ups found out and wanted him to cooperate in the investigation.
There was no other possibility but this, which reminded him of what the system had said.
If you want to change the outcome of the plot in the works of the author Sanjiu, then you'll have to rely on your own abilities.
So, Sanjiu, you've gone around in circles again.
Jiang Ye looked somewhat depressed.
I don't know if this rescue was right or wrong. I used to really like the character Zhao Kongcheng when I read the novel.
Snapped!
Suddenly, Zhao Kongcheng patted Jiang Ye on the shoulder and laughed, "It's nothing. I've been given a very special mission. When I come back, I'll be a general!"
He raised an eyebrow as he spoke, trying to calm himself down.
"Yes, Old Zhao will definitely come back, don't be sad, handsome little brother." Hongying smiled at him, cupping her cheeks.
Jiang Ye paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
Squad 136, it really feels like home!
"Come on, let's eat." Chen Muye brought out the last dish and then sat down next to Wu Xiangnan.
At this moment, Hongying already had the chopsticks in her hand, and a great battle was about to begin.
Chen Muyi glanced at the others, picked up his chopsticks, and said, "Let's eat."
As soon as she finished speaking, Hongying and Wen Qimo simultaneously grabbed a chicken leg with their chopsticks.
Their eyes met, as if lightning flashed between them.
Chen Muyi took a deep breath, then used his chopsticks to tap the three chicken legs on the plate, placing them into the bowls of Jiang Ye, Lin Qiye, and Lao Zhao.
Hongying puffed out her cheeks, withdrew her hand, and glared fiercely at Wen Qimo, who helplessly shrugged.
Jiang Ye remained silent, picking up a chicken leg and about to put it into Hong Ying's bowl.
"No, I was just trying to get it for you." Hongying blocked it with her chopsticks, tilting her head and smiling at herself.
"Alright, let's raise a glass together to send Old Zhao off." Chen Muyi picked up the wine glass on the table and stood up.
Everyone else was the same.
"May Old Zhao achieve great merit and become a general!"
With a bang, the eight wine glasses collided together.
Zhao Kongcheng's eyes welled up with tears. He downed a full glass of beer in one gulp and said in a choked voice, "Wait for me to return to the team."
That night, Jiang Ye suffered his first defeat since becoming a god, this time at the hands of Zhao Kongcheng.
……
The next morning, Team 136 saw Zhao Kongcheng off as he left Cangnan.
The seven people stood at the airport, watching Lao Zhao's plane take off. Hong Ying could no longer hold back her tears.
Actually, they're not stupid; they understand why Lao Zhao was transferred to Beijing by higher-ups.
Drop drop drop.
Just then, Chen Muye's phone rang, and he answered it.
"Hey."
His brows suddenly furrowed. "Are you sure?"
"Okay, we'll be right there."
"What happened, Captain?" Wu Xiangnan asked.
Chen Muyi put down his phone. "Several murders occurred in Cangnan yesterday evening. After investigation, the police have not found any evidence of a murderer."
"Moreover... this morning, when the forensic doctor went to examine the bodies, he found that they had all turned into snake-like monsters."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the crowd, who were originally in a state of grief, instantly became solemn.
Needless to say, yet another mystery has appeared.
"We'll go back to the office immediately. Xiangnan, you go and contact the police station to investigate the source of the mystery," Chen Muye instructed.
The seven then got into the car and returned to the Peace Office.
Jiang Ye followed silently.
Upon arriving at the firm's entrance, a familiar figure came into view.
"Li Yifei." Chen Muye looked at the high school student standing at the door.
The two met when they signed the confidentiality agreement last time.
When Li Yifei saw them return, he walked over in a flustered manner and said, "Hello, I have something to tell you."
Chen Muyi frowned. "What is it?"
"I...I saw a monster."
……
Inside the meeting room, everyone fell silent after Li Yifei finished speaking.
Tapping.
Footsteps came from the doorway, and Wu Xiangnan walked in with some documents, saying, "Captain, all the deceased have one thing in common: their children all attend Cangnan No. 2 Middle School."
"Therefore, it can be basically concluded that Cangnan No. 2 Middle School is the primary crime scene."
"in addition……"
Wu Xiangnan took out several identical documents and placed them in front of everyone.
"Based on the data sent by the forensic doctor, I looked up information and found that this mysterious creature is called the 'Nanda Snake Demon'."
Extremely skilled at disguise, they can implant snake offspring in ordinary people to produce offspring…
Lin Qiye felt strange listening to this, and turned to look at Li Yifei, seemingly lost in thought.
She's extremely good at disguising herself, so how did she end up being exposed to Li Yifei this time?
If the snake demon's offspring were killed, shouldn't the snake demon have hidden even deeper? Why would it expose its location at a time like this?
too weird.
Jiang Ye, who noticed Lin Qiye's subtle expressions, couldn't help but marvel.
The protagonist is indeed somewhat extraordinary, otherwise he wouldn't have become such a figure.
However, once I enter Cangnan No. 2 Middle School, I will control the entire situation.
Snapped!
Chen Muye closed the file and looked at Li Yifei, "Qiye, Xiaoye, and Li Yifei, you are students of Cangnan No. 2 Middle School. You are to go and investigate the situation of the school and see how many snake demon offspring there are."
"Hongying, Xiaonan, go to Liu Xiaoyan's dormitory and the director's office to find the real body."
"The rest of you should clear out the snake demon offspring outside the school and split up to carry out your tasks."
"Also, Li Yifei, if you perform well this time, I can give you a chance to join the Night's Watch."
Chen Muye said to Li Yifei, whose joy seemed completely genuine.
"Okay, let's get started!"
"Yes!"
