Xin Lan did not answer directly, but picked up the coffee spoon, stirred it gently in the coffee cup, then gently pinched the cup ear with her index finger and thumb, picked up the cup and took a sip.

Lin Qi sat opposite and took a sip imitating Xin Lan's example.

Somewhat bitter.

But he needs the stimulation of taste.

Xin Lan put down the coffee cup, noticed Lin Qi's frown, and asked, "Do you want to add sugar?"

Lin Qi shook his head.

He just wanted to know Xin Lan's answer.

Xin Lan thought for a while and said, "Join the Special Affairs Department, you have no way out."

Lin Qi stared at the coffee in the cup: "I don't understand what this has to do with the inheritance conditions of the Heavenly Book."

"The conditions for inheritance of the Book of the Dead are changing every moment, and the predictions of the Imperial City's prophets are constantly being completed. And while you were sleeping, the complete information about the Book of the Dead has been released."

Xin Lan's voice gradually turned colder, and her expression became serious.

"The prophet said that only those who have died can inherit the Necronomicon."

Xin Lan's words made Lin Qi's expression stagnant. He suddenly thought of many things.

Since he came to this world, the scenes he has experienced flashed before his eyes, and the links that he could not figure out were all connected together at this moment!

There were many survivors in the Times Building, but only he was specifically targeted, and only he became the key suspect.

Fan Luoshan was not the only one who thought he had obtained the Book of Heaven.

People from the Security Pavilion and the Special Affairs Department also suspected that he had obtained the Book of Heaven.

It turns out that only those who have died can inherit the Necronomicon, and what he encountered in the bathroom fit this requirement perfectly!

He was beaten to death by He Shao and others.

Then he mysteriously came back to life.

Thinking of this, Lin Qi also realized the problem and understood the meaning of Xin Lan's words.

"Resurrection from the dead is a condition for inheriting the Necronomicon?"

Xin Lan nodded and said: "The Necronomicon does not belong to this world. Only people who have died can see it and bring it back to the human world from the darkness, and this person is the successor of the Necronomicon."

This was the condition for the Necronomicon to come into the world. Originally, Lin Qi was the only person who met this condition.

But Lin Qi did not have the Necronomicon on his body.

Xin Lan continued: "On the thirteenth floor, many people died and many survived, but you are the only one who has come back from the dead. There is still one person whose life or death is unknown."

Speaking of this, Xin Lan looked at Lin Qi, knowing that Lin Qi understood what she meant.

She just said that Lin Qi had no way out.

Because among the survivors on the thirteenth floor, only He Shao's body was taken away, and he was the only one who did not accept the inspection of the Special Affairs Department!

Lin Qi clenched his right hand tightly and said in a low voice: "Do you suspect that Mr. He has become the successor of the Necronomicon?"

"It's just suspicion, no evidence yet because we don't know if he will survive."

Lin Qi didn't expect that he just wanted to ask about the inheritance conditions of the Book of Heaven, but he got such a serious answer.

If he had known this, he should have destroyed He Shao's body and wiped out all traces of it, all because of the two-headed hell dog that disrupted the situation!

The killing is still not thorough enough.

In addition, Lin Qi also figured out many things, such as Fan Luoshan who came from the imperial capital. This person should have known the conditions for inheriting the Necronomicon a long time ago!

It was earlier than the Spring City Special Affairs Department knew!

Because, before they were swallowed into the demon world, Fan Luoshan had already begun to seek death.

At that time, Zhuzhu appeared in the corridor, and Fan Luoshan took the initiative to feed him there, seeking death and becoming the hostage of the spider demon.

He also served as Shao He's pawn and was willing to explore the spider's lair.

Thinking about it now, he probably wanted to commit suicide, right?

Fan Luoshan has an immortal body, and he has more opportunities for trial and error than anyone else - he wants to die in the hands of the spider demon, he also wants to die in the hands of He Shao, and he also wants to abuse himself by taking the moss blue stone in the spider's lair.

Maybe he committed suicide secretly in a deserted place!

Because Fan Luoshan wants to find the Necronomicon.

However, the result is obvious that his plans failed.

At this point, the things Lin Qi encountered could basically be explained.

Xin Lan looked at it, thinking that Lin Qi was thinking about Young Master He, and comforted him: "But you don't have to worry too much, there were so many people dead in the Times Building, and none of them came back to life, and Young Master He may not be able to survive either. .”

"In the Special Affairs Department, are you paid during the internship period?" Lin Qi suddenly asked.

"Of course." Xin Lan was stunned.

"Is the salary high?"

"It's not high, but it's higher than your company's internship salary."

"Can I make an advance?"

Xin Lan smiled: "I can help you apply."

Lin Qi also smiled: "Deal."

Lin Qi was very aware of current affairs, and just as Xin Lan said, he really had no way out.

He needs a safe haven.

Moreover, by joining the Spring City Special Affairs Department, Lin Qi can also gain some investigative authority, which will make it easier for him to track He Shao's affairs.

Find Mr. He and destroy his body...

Without his body, no matter whether he is the successor of the Necronomicon or not, there is no way he can come back to life, right?

He wants to strangle He Shao in the cradle!

Seeing that Lin Qi agreed to join the Special Affairs Department, Xin Lan's mood improved.

"You don't have the Holy Book, so you can't fight against a consortium, but as long as you join the Special Affairs Division, they won't be able to touch you, at least not under the sun."

Lin Qi did not respond, but continued to eat his steak.

The soldiers will block it, the water will cover it, and the soil will cover it. Anyway, He Shao hasn't woken up yet. He should fill his stomach first and then think of a solution.

He is really hungry.

The steak tastes very good, soft, delicate and tender.

Under the stimulation of his taste buds, Lin Qi ignored the image and elegance of Western food and ate directly, finishing the plate quickly.

After wiping his mouth, Lin Qi ordered another steak.

He doesn't want to think about it too much now.

It wasn't until he finished the second steak that Lin Qi stopped with satisfaction.

"What about the inheritance conditions for other heavenly books? Are they all the same?"

Xin Lan looked at the night sky outside the window: "Each volume of the Heavenly Book has specific inheritance conditions, but there will also be a general restriction. For example, the successor can only be an ordinary person without cultivation."

This restriction was very strange and completely beyond Lin Qi's expectation.

And it was like it was tailor-made for him.

His list of demons...

Isn't it really also a heavenly book?

Xin Lan continued: "You can have talent, but you cannot practice, because the heirs of the Heavenly Book have their own path of evolution, and they have to start from scratch. This restriction will exclude all practitioners."

"This is too harsh..."

Xin Lan sighed: "Yes, this is very harsh. If you want to get the Heavenly Book, you have to give up your practice and your own life."

In this world with monsters, talent represents the future, and the state of cultivation is the foundation.

To give up everything in this world for a book that you don't know whether you can inherit or not is like gambling with your life.

This reminded Lin Qi of Fan Luoshan.

Fan Luoshan has immortal blood and the highest five-star talent, but he has no training.

Lin Qi couldn't help but ask the questions in his heart.

"That Fan Luoshan, he came from the imperial capital, but he seems to be an ordinary person. Is it because of the Heavenly Book that he did not practice? Is there really anyone who would do such a thing for the Heavenly Book?"

Xin Lan shook his head and said: "Maybe, not only Fan Luoshan, but also someone named Su Xingyan. They are all from the imperial capital, and they are all very talented, but they have never practiced."

They are all ruthless people...

Lin Qi felt that Su Xingyan's name was very familiar, and after thinking for a moment, he remembered that there was a note in his pocket, which was given to him by a young man wearing glasses.

It had the man's name on it, along with a phone number.

His name is Su Xingyan!

Lin Qi suddenly realized that he seemed to have met many amazing people during his trip to the demon world!

Do you want to get in touch?

These two people have very reliable sources of information in the imperial capital, and they seem to be able to extract some information from the heavenly book!

While Lin Qi was thinking this, Xin Lan handed over another assist.

"By the way, since you are also from the Special Affairs Department, the task of monitoring Fan Luoshan and Su Xingyan will be left to you. You are both survivors on the 13th floor, so it should be very convenient."

"good!"

Of course, Lin Qi would not refuse such a task that was close to his heart.

It was already early in the morning when the two came out of Cafe No. 9.

This place is two blocks away from the Times Building and is outside the control zone, but it is still affected and the streets are deserted.

Shops that were originally open at night also closed early.

Only a bar in the distance still had lights on.

The night wind was a bit cold, so Xin Lan tightened her clothes: "Let's go back."

Lin Qi said "hmm" and followed Xin Lan to the car. Just as he was about to open the door and get in, he saw someone coming out of the bar in the distance.

It was a young girl who looked like she had drunk a lot and was staggering when she walked.

I even almost fell down a few times.

The girl came to the roadside, as if she wanted to take a taxi, and waved her hands randomly to both sides, but there was not a single car on the empty road.

The emergence of space cracks affected nearby neighborhoods.

Even the taxis stopped coming this way.

The girl walked around on the road and soon saw Lin Qi standing beside the car, waving happily.

Seems like you want to take a ride?

It was actually a very dangerous thing for a girl to be so drunk in the early hours of the morning. Lin Qi couldn't help but take a second look, but that was all.

Xin Lan drove a sports car with only two seats, so he couldn't help him even if he wanted to.

Moreover, the girl's companion walked out of the bar.

Lin Qi opened the car door and got in.

Xin Lan was also looking at the girl and joked: "She is calling you. She seems very good-looking. Do you want to get to know her?"

"Why do we know each other? Take her to the cabin to sober up?"

Lin Qi is no longer free now, and the only place he can go to is the cabin.

Xin Lan smiled, started the sports car, and drove in the direction of the girl, trying to get back to the cabin from the front.

But what they didn't expect was that when the sports car was about to pass by the girl, the girl's cry for help suddenly sounded outside the car.

I saw those people coming out of the bar dragging the girl directly to the alley!
