Barrier of Light

Chen did not expect that the result of his waiting would be so bad——

The Grand Inquisitor's sacred tree locked him behind him.

If you can't break free, then this place is both your own cage and your own coffin.

And even without the sacred wood blockade... he didn't have the confidence to break away from the entanglement of the mysterious man in front of him. His time-slowing field seemed to have no effect on the man in front of him.

Because the other person's voice is not delayed.

This seems to be torture that works directly on one's own spiritual level.

When did Dadu gain such a transcendent person who was above the 12th level of the deep sea?

"You're crazy..."

Chen Wei gritted his teeth and said: "If the front is hit by the explosion, we will all die."

The shadow was indifferent.

Obviously, he didn't care about the explosion, he only cared about Chen Mo's answer——

"I have no idea……"

Chen didn't take a deep breath, gritted his teeth and gave this weak-sounding answer.

But it's true.

He didn't have many encounters with owls.

The two established a connection through a spiritual link... and this man did have extraordinary abilities. With only a few exchanges, he successfully taught Chen Mo top-notch physical skills.

Apart from practicing, they actually had no other communication.

"I really don't know where he is...but I saw his face in my dream, that's the photo..."

While speaking, Chen Mei was judging the correct direction to escape from the explosion in the slowly passing time domain.

The glass outside the interrogation room shattered, and he saw the general scene outside. As long as he was fast enough and crashed out of the nearest corridor, he could escape from this deserted building... As for how many floors this place was, he no longer cared. The most important thing at the moment was It is to escape from this explosion.

Got Chen Mo's answer.

Shadow lowered his eyebrows and fell into thought.

The next moment, the sacred wooden chair that tightly bound Chen Mi seemed to relax a little.

Chen Wei gritted his teeth and moved a certain distance laterally, and flew out together with the red silver glass of the interrogation room.

Ability reaches its limit——

Time slowly disappears and the flow of time returns to normal.

"boom!"

There was an explosion.

Chen Mei crashed out of the corridor at the last moment. The escape route he planned was correct... When he crashed out of the sea of ​​​​fire, he cast his eyes in the direction where he came from, only to see the white shadow in the monstrous sea of ​​​​fire still calm. Sitting calmly in the fragmented interrogation room, with his hands on his elbows, he seemed to be thinking.

next moment.

The entire abandoned building was blown to pieces.

Raging flames engulfed the building, and mushroom clouds rose.

A violent shock wave swept across the sky, and Chen Mei groaned, feeling a fishy sweetness in his throat.

With his bone density, he could barely withstand the impact of the aftermath.

The wave just stopped.

Wave after wave.

In the mid-air, a second explosion sounded in the deafening roar that had not yet stopped.

Chen Wei's eyes widened and he looked at the raging fire wave that was chasing him and crashing out of the building with great momentum.

He roared and raised his hands to cover his face. This was the last means of defense... Shi Huan was unable to quickly activate it twice in a row, and he could only catch the second explosion with his physical body.

And at the moment when countless waves of fire were about to drown him.

Everything froze.

It was as if... someone had held down the hands of the clock.

It seems as if this is all a dream.

"You...want to live?"

The voice of the white shadow sounded in Chen Mo's mind.

Wait until Chen doesn't respond.

The voice of the white shadow sounded for the last time: "Then join the special investigation team."

Not a question.

Not a request.

But a request.

The shackles of the sacred wood were untied on their own, and countless fire waves came towards them... This massive explosion set off strong winds and sound waves that swept almost every inch of land within a ten-mile radius.

It's just...no one knows.

Because this area of ​​ten miles is completely desolate.

There were countless thick smoke and black clouds billowing from the dome.

Buildings collapse.

A bird with a broken wing fell and fell on the thick haystack.

…

…

There was a "pop" sound.

There was a muffled sound from the window.

Gu Shen saw a bird with broken wings hit the window.

Are you enveloped by your own ominous aura?

He thought with some self-deprecation, and slowly walked out of the hospital bed. The dizziness caused by the dream had basically disappeared. Before he could open the window, the shivering bird was frightened, tried its best to move, and finally fell off the edge of the window sill and headed towards the stairs. Fall down...

At the critical moment.

A scabbard poked out and caught the broken-winged bird.

Lanqi's power can be sharp or gentle.

Lu Nanjin, who was sitting by the window, slowly gathered the bird in her palm and comforted it gently.

"call……"

Gu Shen breathed a sigh of relief.

I wanted to lend a helping hand.

But it caused the bird with broken wings to fall.

Gu Shen retracted his palm angrily. Ever since they met at the Liberty Hall, he felt that the things he had experienced recently were not going well. The theory of luck was probably true... No matter what, he didn't want to meet Tsukauki anymore. .

"Don't get close to the Tsuka Oni."

Nan Jin teased in a low voice: "You will become unfortunate."

"I thought the 'New World' project team was a hotpot, but I never thought it was a deep pit..." Gu Shen rubbed his head, sat back on the bed again, frowned and asked, "This sentence sounds familiar to you. Did you say something similar before?"

"Is there any?"

Nan Jin raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Maybe you were too weak so you remembered it wrong. After the explosion in the alley, you fainted just a few steps out of the cordon and have been sleeping until now. I haven't said a few words to you. ."

"???"

Gu Shen looked at the light curtain.

The election ceremony for the candidate members has ended. Madam's words about my objection must have caused an uproar within the parliament.

The poles are reversed.

South Bay gave up the fight, but the real war had just begun.

Judging from Nan Jin's expression, she didn't seem surprised that all of this happened.

"Senior sister, these... were you planned in advance, right?"

Gu Shen spoke slowly, "Oppose the Awakening Act."

Lu Nanjin sat on the table by the window holding the knife. She put the injured bird back on the window sill and watched the bird spread its wings tremblingly and fly away. After being far away from the ward, she was indeed out of danger.

"Um."

She didn't argue.

But admit it outright.

"Is it because of...the Lion Lane case?"

He has been to the old city and checked the case files... Gu Shen admits that he is now one of the few people who still cares about the truth about the Lion Alley case.

This case file has gone through too many years.

After a long time, no one cares about it except Crow, Hibiscus, and Gardenia.

In a sense, most of the current balance is "thanks" to Lu Cheng's death... The word "thanks" sounds bloody, but it is actually very appropriate.

"Have you ever experienced anything like this?"

The senior sister opened the window and the breeze blew across her face.

"There is no evidence, but you just believe...that the truth is like this."

Gu Shen fell silent for a moment.

Since joining the Judgment, he has only really solved two incidents, and they were all sent to him after Cui Zhongcheng calculated... But he can understand the feelings of his senior sister.

Before special events, people's intuition is very accurate.

Especially women.

"Do you think Zhao Xilai is the murderer..." Gu Shen whispered.

"It's not a feeling, it's a certainty."

"There is no evidence, but I just have this intuition. That's why I practice swordsmanship hard. My enemy is a man who stands at the top of most of the world. I must be strong enough."

Lu Nanjin said calmly: "The purpose of returning to Dadu this time is to restore the truth about the Lion Lane case."

"Then... what happens after you find the truth?"

This question should have been turned over and over in my mind a thousand times.

But those who practice swordsmanship seem to have neglected it.

She only focused on practicing swordsmanship and moving forward... As for finding the truth, she was put at the end.

after a long time.

The senior sister spit out four words.

"Kill and pay with life."
