Li Yunyao raised her eyes again when she saw Xu Ye and Lu Ming looking back.
"The biggest problem is that there is no problem... Our clues have been cut off." Xu Ye looked at Li Yunyao seemingly casually, walked over, pulled up a chair, and sat next to her.
The latter didn't seem to notice anything wrong.
"She seems to have just suffered a mental blow. For a middle-aged woman who is seven months pregnant and has been hit by life one after another, this is not an incomprehensible thing. I think you are overthinking it." Lu Mingwang sympathized.
He is a young man full of positive energy.
"You look more and more like our Captain Meng..." Xu Ye glanced at him.
Hearing this, the latter raised his chin proudly.
"It's very reasonable. Experts from the headquarters have secretly investigated and found that there is no problem at all with the woman and the fetus." Li Yunyao said thoughtfully.
Several people were silent for a while.
They know nothing about rituals, and they don't know what the next purpose of the Eternal Holy See is.
This makes them like headless flies.
But only Xu Ye knew that there were only more than two months left.
"The only clue left now is the coffin under the Rose Community. The Eternal Holy See has gone to great lengths to expose it. I'm afraid it is part of the ceremony. Just like ten years ago, they like to take steps step by step, time and time again.
A temptation may also contain behaviors that mislead us, and we must distinguish them clearly.”
"besides……"
Li Yunyao opened the newspaper.
I saw the big headline in the newspaper recently, which was about the Rose Community - "A fire broke out in the Rose Community, and experts accidentally discovered ancient cultural relics underground."
"Shocked! A sow in a pig farm in Xinxi District screamed in the middle of the night, and it turned out to be a man..."
"Qin Yanhua and the male protagonist in the play were photographed returning to the hotel together in the middle of the night! Both studios have refuted the rumor!"
"The price of cancer drugs has increased sharply. Experts urge not to buy on the black market, but to maintain a good attitude!"
"The Cremation Law has been passed and will be implemented simultaneously in the Floating City and the four major cities next month. Low academic qualifications will not affect cremation. We hope that the general public will actively participate."
"What?!"
Lu Mingwang watched the news and grabbed the newspaper in shock.
"What did you find?" Xu Ye's eyes narrowed.
But Lu Mingwang was staring at the news about Qin Yanhua, his facial features were twisted together, his body was leaning against the wall, his mouth was slightly open, and he was slowly sliding down like a dead pig.
"No!!!"
Xu Ye resisted the urge to stab him, grabbed the newspaper and read it carefully.
He understood what Li Yunyao wanted to express.
Whether it was a ceremony ten years ago or a ceremony now, there would be huge commotion every time, and details can often be found in newspaper news.
As for Qin Yanhua... Lu Mingwang, a die-hard otaku, anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that this is to create a gimmick for the upcoming movie.
Cremation…Cancer Drugs…
Well, I won't be able to see anything for a while.
Moreover, the things in the newspapers seem to have been cut and edited, and the floating city controls public opinion very strictly.
After reading for a while, Xu Ye put down the newspaper and suddenly asked: "By the way, when will Lao Zheng come back? Is he still with his ex-wife and daughter in the Floating City?"
Li Yunyao opened her mouth, sighed deeply, and her beautiful eyebrows squeezed together:
"Actually, Uncle Zheng's wife died during the Eternal Holy See incident ten years ago. When Uncle Zheng found her, her abdomen was cut open and her daughter was cut out for sacrifice...
"
Xu Ye was stunned.
Zhou Ye, who was lying on the bed, was startled. He wanted to get up a little anxiously and moved his body.
Lu Mingwang, who was sitting on the ground, became quiet for a while.
"So, that one from the floating city..." Xu Ye asked.
"Uncle Zheng imagined it. He would sometimes be emotionally unstable, of course, only when it came to his wife, so he would imagine a wife and daughter. He knew about it and knew that his wife was dead.
But I just want my fantasy wife and daughter to exist.”
"So, we can't bear to break his fantasy, so every time the captain goes to the floating city for psychological treatment, we will take him with us. However, his mood is very healthy. Except for his family, everything else is normal." Li Yunyao's mood
Feeling depressed, she still vaguely remembered the silence of that big man back then.
No crying, no yelling, no tears.
Some, there is only endless silence.
He made a home for himself.
Xu Ye couldn't imagine what kind of emotion that was.
This is the worst of times and the saddest of times.
"Creak——"
In the middle of their conversation, a staff member from Team 9 pushed in the door with a serious look on his face: "Something happened. The awakening potion delivered from the headquarters today and assigned to Team 8 was lost."
Hearing this, Xu Ye and Li Yunyao looked at each other.
Awakening potion lost?
This is almost impossible.
It seems like this has never happened before.
Awakening potions are prepared using special techniques based on the energy emanating from Heaven.
This secret technique has always been mastered at the headquarters.
Because energy is scarce, the number of awakening potions produced each year is limited, ranging from dozens to hundreds.
Each team, or the noble side, will allocate some.
Since the incident in Team 9 ten years ago, except for Xu Ye, Meng Chengfei has not applied for the awakening potion.
The potion distributed this time is also for the eighth team.
Why is it missing?
This was delivered personally by the headquarters personnel and placed in the safe of Team 8, unless it was a mole.
…
Outside the city, in a house that has been abandoned for decades.
A man wearing a vest and a cowboy hat with slightly dark skin looked coldly at the woman in front of him who was dropped in the air.
Gu Muhan was in the ruins, facing a painting with a brush in his hand, frowning from time to time.
As for the woman opposite, her hair is disheveled, her face is covered with bloodstains, and her body is covered with bloodstains. At the woman's feet, there is a broken mask, and you can faintly see the pattern on the corner of the mask - the 4 of Hearts.
The painting in front of Gu Muhan was exactly the woman in front of him.
"brush!"
The paintbrush in his hand landed on the arms, stomach, lungs, thighs, etc. of the woman in the painting.
A few strokes left traces on it.
However, something strange happened. The woman in front of him had blood all over her body. She screamed miserably, and a heartbreaking pain arose in the same position.
The woman screamed one after another, her breathing becoming more and more difficult, like a leaking accordion, whining and whining.
"Please, kill me. I'll tell you what I know and you kill me!" The woman finally couldn't bear it anymore and begged for mercy. Her mouth was filled with blood and she lost all her teeth.
A smile appeared at the corner of Gu Muhan's mouth, but he did not write any more.
"Didn't it mean that believers of the Eternal Holy See will be punished by death once they betray? In fact, I quite want to see it."
The woman's face twitched and she whispered: "That is the imprisonment imposed by Him. Everyone is different, but our Hearts lineage has been operating in the place of exile and cannot contact Him. Only the Spades lineage can contact Him.
"
Gu Muhan understood, nodded, and said calmly: "Then tell me, why do you want to get close to me, and what is your purpose?"
"It's for internal support. The bishop asked me to find a way to get close to you." The woman said honestly, "But I don't know the specific plan. All our plans are separate. They may also be illusions. In order to confuse the enemy, everyone
You only know your own mission.”
Gu Muhan frowned, as if he had lost his patience, and casually touched the woman's head in the painting.
Blood spattered, staining the glass shards on the ground around the woman's feet.
"Is the Bishop of Ace of Hearts coming over?"
"Does the inside and outside of the spade lineage match?"
Gu Muhan fell into deep thought.
As the captain of the second team of Dawn Blade, he relied on his intuition to keenly sense that something big was about to happen.
