Chapter 143: Nightmare’s Call

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Zhong Yugu left several subordinates at the explosion site of the Second Cross-Sea Bridge and continued to follow up on the explosive disposal work and assist the National Defense Forces. He himself drove a car and took Yu Zhesen and Chu Yuexi back to the Security Bureau headquarters.

In the car, Yu Zhesen was asked to put on tactical goggles. Zhong Yugu switched the vehicle to automatic cruise driving mode and connected with Yu Zhesen in the virtual space.

Yu Zhesen noticed that Zhong Yugu did not use the eyepiece, which meant that the old man had replaced the electronic brain.

The virtual space created by Zhong Yugu is a very simple small room with only a table and a few chairs.

"Tell me, why are you in that car?" Zhong Yugu motioned to Yu Zhesen to start.

Yu Zhesen had already prepared a draft before getting in the car. He first asked Zhong Yugu about his knowledge of the Nightmare case. After the latter admitted that he didn't know much, he briefly explained the case and progress.

"So, is Ms. Hathaway worried about this case recently?" Zhong Yugu put his chin in his hands and thought: "I originally thought you were just investigating a prankster with supernatural powers, but now it seems that this nightmare has a big problem.

energy."

"Dream invasion can essentially be classified as a telepathic power. On the surface, it seems that dreams have no connection with reality, but this guy is actually very troublesome." Yu Zhesen sighed, "The field department has been investigating for a week, but it has never been found.

Obtain key information about Nightmare himself."

Zhong Yugu thought: "So far you have only found two people who were affected by nightmare dreams and showed suicidal tendencies, but the investigation revealed that there have been dozens of people who have been in contact with them? Is it possible that it is not that guy who caused people to commit suicide?

What’s the original intention?”

Yu Zhesen said: "I did think about this, and the strange thing is... he seems to be targeting me."

"Your two contacts and indirect contact experiences both came from that bar. If it were me, I would focus on investigating that bar." Zhong Yugu said.

"Well... let's wait until the taxi driver is found."

A big living person disappeared under the nose. If it wasn't caused by someone with special powers of space movement, it would be too deliberate.

They have found Zhang Cunyong's personal information. He is an incompetent person, but... they do not rule out the possibility of sudden awakening.

"The Criminal Investigation Department will make every effort to find the whereabouts of Zhang Cunyong."

After finishing speaking, Zhong Yugu wiped his forehead, pondered for a moment and then asked: "What makes me curious is that your establishment in Qidao City Security Bureau is an employee of the Police Information Office. Why did you participate in the investigation of the Field Department? And you look like

It’s not like a new recruit from outside.”

Yu Zhesen smiled slightly: "What do you think?"

"You said you are An Zhitian's son?"

"To be precise, he is an adopted son." Yu Zhesen scratched his head, "Actually, I don't like to announce my origin to others, but if I hadn't done that just now, you probably wouldn't take me seriously at all."

Zhong Yugu's face showed an expression of reflection, and after a moment he said: "It doesn't matter. In fact, for capable young people, I don't mind them taking some shortcuts. Looking at the matter, what you did is not wrong."

"Thank you. I participated in the 31st training camp of the Security Bureau in Starzhou City, so you may think that I don't look like a newcomer." He explained.

"Ms. Hathaway left you at the police station?"

Yu Zhesen said awkwardly: "I am under review by the Supernatural Power Investigation Division. It is more convenient for me to stay in the office and cooperate with the investigators sent from above."

Zhong Yugu nodded and did not continue to ask.

He felt it was almost enough.

"Now that the matter has been clarified, I believe your story. Your appearance on the bridge tonight is just a coincidence." Zhong Yugu tapped the table with his finger, "If subsequent investigations prove that the explosion on the bridge is connected with the nightmare, the two cases will

The cases will be consolidated and handled."

Yu Zhesen didn't understand why he said the last half of the sentence to himself. Consolidating the case was not something that a small person like him could decide.

Zhong Yugu continued: "If the case is merged, I will ask Hathaway for temporary command of the field department. I hope you can also be active by then. We have to clean the house before the new city official arrives.

."

"I heard that the new alderman is Councilor Jonard?"

Zhong Yugu did not answer, but his expression made the answer self-evident.

The connection to the virtual space was disconnected. Yu Zhesen took off his goggles and opened his eyes. Chu Yuexi was watching him nervously.

She was excluded from the inquiry conversation and knew nothing about the conversation between Zhong Yugu and Yu Zhesen. At this time, she was anxious to know the result.

"How is it?" Chu Yuexi asked quietly.

"It's okay, you can go home." Yu Zhesen smiled.

Zhong Yugu parked the car in front of the gate of the Security Bureau headquarters, where Yu Zhesen and Chu Yuexi got off.

"If you still have something to do, I can just go back by myself." Chu Yuexi said to him considerately, "My home is very close anyway..."

"I have nothing to do and I have to be busy. Zhong Yugu has taken care of everything."

Yu Zhesen looked towards the gate of the Security Bureau. It was already late at night, and there were still many people coming and going in the hall.

There are also many private vehicles parked in the parking lot in front of the door. Obviously, the explosion of the Second Cross-sea Bridge has prevented many people from sleeping well tonight.

"Why did Zhang Cunyong disappear suddenly? The car didn't seem to have much damage, so he probably wouldn't have been involved in the explosion..."

"Either he jumped into the sea when the explosion happened, or someone with space transfer ability like Wu Xiaoming took him away." He said, patting Chu Yuexi's shoulder: "Don't think about it, let's go."
Chu Yuexi touched her cheek and said softly: "I feel your desire to protect me. Logically speaking, I should be happy, but..."

Yu Zhesen waited quietly for a while, but found that she did not say the words after "but".

Chu Yuexi shook her head: "Forget it, instead of worrying about this, I should think more about how to make you recognize that I am a qualified teammate."

"When you reach level A." Yu Zhesen said half-jokingly.

"Just wait and see."

After accompanying Chu Yuexi on the short walk from the Security Bureau to the Duting Garden Community where her home is located, Yu Zhesen said a simple goodbye to her.

Watching Chu Yuexi enter the elevator of the unit building, he finally felt that he had completed a task and turned around to leave.

There was a strange sound like a needle falling to the ground in his mind, and he vaguely felt that someone was peering at him in the dark. This ominous premonition made the hairs on his back stand up.

At this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket rang, and the caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.

"Hello? Who are you?" Yu Zhesen answered the phone.

What came from the receiver was a voice that was obviously electronically processed and distorted. The other party was deliberately hiding his identity: "I sent you to the bridge, but unfortunately you failed to prevent the explosion. Why didn't you stay on the bridge for a while?"
Yu Zhesen was stunned for a second, and his brain began to process the somewhat horrifying information.

The other party continued: "Tonight's failure made me realize that we must take more direct measures, but I really can't trust the Security Bureau, so I want to cooperate with you directly."

"You are a nightmare."

"You can call me that if you like." The other party said, "I just want to tell you that there will be another explosion tomorrow afternoon, probably located at the Tianheng Department Store you have been to."

"What do you mean? Are you the one who anonymously threatened the Security Bureau tonight to blow up the bridge?"

"I sent the threatening message, but I was not the one who blew up the bridge." Ni said calmly, "You should put aside your preconceived hostility towards me and calmly think about what I said."

Yu Zhesen took a deep breath and quickly came to another conclusion: "You learned that someone was going to blow up the bridge by sneaking into the dream, so you deliberately used this method to alert the security bureau."

"That's it, the next explosion will be at Tianheng Department Store, and the time will be around 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon." Xi said seriously, "The information I can obtain is limited, but this is definitely not a lie."

"You want me to stop the explosion?"

"Yes, I saw part of your memory when I entered your dream before, and I also know that you once prevented an explosion disaster in Dream Journey Park."

Yu Zhesen was silent for a moment and tentatively suggested: "It's not even ten o'clock in the evening yet, can we meet? I promise to come alone and not reveal anything about you to anyone."

"It's better to skip the offline meeting. If you really want to see me, just remember the code words I will tell you next."

"What is the code word?"

"Don't worry...let me think about it...why not just say this." Nightmare laughed at the other end, and then recited affectionately: "I have to walk on the same road as martyrs and clowns."

"I have to walk on the same path as martyrs and clowns." Yu Zhesen repeated.

"Yes, recite it silently before going to bed tonight, and I will find you."
