Chapter 5 Sewer Rat

After a while of introduction, everyone got to know each other. But Xu Zhaoting didn’t need any introduction.

Captain Li Weiguo said bluntly:

"If you had just announced your name yesterday, how could such a thing have happened? Who knows the name of the number one genius in Bo City? As soon as we heard yesterday that we had recruited a thunder mage, who was still a high school student, we took a guess.

It’s you Xu Zhaoting!”

Since the first year's assessment, the title of Bo City's number one genius has also fallen into the hands of Xu Zhaoting!

Although Mu Ningxue is a natural spiritual species and self-awakened, can you release level two magic? I'm afraid it's not possible yet?

Even if it can be released now, at least it was still close during the original assessment.

After that, it was time to go back and wait for the mission. Because he was a student, Li Weiguo directly exempted Xu Zhaoting from the duty of taking turns to be on duty. This was also considered a preferential treatment for the thunder system.

Without the Stardust Magic Weapon, Xu Zhaoting's training seemed like a snail's pace.

After waiting for two days, I finally received my first mission.

We gathered in the office. Xu Zhaoting didn't bring any equipment. The team members prepared ropes, cutters, containers, etc.

"The task we received this time was a private commission, which is located in a community next to Mingwen Girls' Middle School. There is a private villa. The residents went out to travel for a few months, but when they came back, they found that there was a stench in the house and the sewers were blocked. The most important thing is

Yes, his nanny is missing!"

"After professional sewer dredging personnel confirmed, this may have been the work of a demon! So it was classified from a missing person case to a demon case. I just took it over from the police, and our mission is to find out the truth."

Set off!

When the group arrived at the mission location, before entering the villa, everyone smelled an unspeakable stench!

Everyone was a mage, so they just frowned and passed away. I felt sorry for the policemen and sewer dredgers who had previously investigated the case, and they must have shed tears...

What's even more pitiful is that two policemen came with him this time, in order to provide them with better clues and cooperate with the demon hunting team to solve the case.

The two policemen were also on the verge of crying, they were so unlucky, but this was a mission and there was nothing they could do.

After some searching, everyone found that the smell was coming from the bathroom.

The floor of the bathroom has been smashed, which was done by the sewer unblocking crew before. But there is nothing underneath, not even the pipes are broken.

But there is a foul smell coming from the pipe! It is also blocked. The water can flow slowly, but at this speed, there must be something solid blocking it.

Everyone searched the villa and found nothing unusual.

This is a bit troublesome. There are no traces in the villa. The nanny disappeared mysteriously. If it was the work of a demon, there must be some traces left!

But there are no marks at all! There are not even scratches on the floor.

Everyone couldn’t figure it out! But Xu Zhaoting seemed to have thought of something bad!

I quickly asked the two policemen next to me:

"From what we've investigated, where was the nanny last seen?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he immediately attracted everyone's attention, because now everyone was stretched thin and had no choice.

"It was at the bar next to Mingwen Girls' High School. It was past midnight when she left the bar."

The policeman answered very cooperatively.

Sure enough! As soon as he heard this answer, Xu Zhaoting had a guess in his heart! Because he is familiar with the plot!

It all starts with the conspiracy of the Black Church!

In more than a year's time, the Black Holy See will conduct a grand experiment in Bo City, and the protagonists will be the two groups of giant-eyed rats and one-eyed demon wolves that are common around Bo City!

Xu Zhaoting remembered that there seemed to be holes made by giant-eyed rats in the sewers under the cafeteria of Mingwen Girls' Middle School, which they used to invade the city!

And because the canteen sewer of Inscription Girls Middle School is an independent branch, and there is only this villa on the route where it merges into the main road! So the source of the odor is already quite clear!

So, the nanny was not killed at home, but while passing by Mingwen Girls' High School!

The monsters didn't dare to appear during the day because there was a mage in the school, so the students were not killed.

But the nanny is an ordinary person, and she doesn't come home until one or two in the middle of the night. She must have been having fun in the bar...

Everyone looked at Xu Zhaoting frowning and deep in thought, and no one dared to disturb him.

"Let's go! Go to Inscription Girls' High School!"

After Xu Zhaoting figured it out, he directly called his teammates to set off. Captain Li Weiguo hurriedly asked:

"Do you have any clues?"

As everyone walked, they looked at Xu Zhaoting. Xu Zhaoting was also confident:

"The clue is the sewer! Because the sewer of the cafeteria of Mingwen Girls' High School is an independent branch, and the only one connected to it is this villa."

Everyone said nothing nonsense and hurried on, and soon they arrived at Mingwen Girls' High School.

After Li Weiguo reported his identity, the team arrived at the canteen smoothly. The staff in the canteen also pointed out the location of the sewer entrance very cooperatively.

"Xinglan, open it directly."

Zhang Xinglan took a step forward:

"Okay! Ground wave - move!"

I directly used earth magic to break open the sewer, and I saw a huge hole underneath that was obviously different from the sewer. The same stench as in the villa came from the hole!

The surrounding staff quickly stayed away. They were originally here to watch the magician's performance. Who knew that they would be so smoked that they might not be able to eat for three days!

Li Weiguo smiled when he smelled this smell:

"This smell is the same as that in the villa. It's obviously not the stench of ordinary sewers, but more like the stench of rotting meat! It seems that Zhao Ting's guess is correct, and there will definitely be clues here!"

Everyone entered the cave and explored along the cave.

Ren Xu was walking in the middle, holding up a shining light, Li Weiguo and Zhang Xinglan were at the front, and Xu Zhaoting and Yang Qing were at the back.

After walking for more than ten minutes, the hole seemed to have no end, and claw marks could be seen everywhere. According to speculation, this should be a hole made by a giant-eyed rat.

"This hole is so big, there may be more than one giant-eyed rat, so please be careful."

"clear."

As he was walking, there was a sudden creaking sound in front of him. Xu Zhaoting remembered the direction and distance. This should be the bottom near the villa!

"Ready to fight!"

Two red balls suddenly appeared in the darkness ahead. Ren Xu threw Guangyao directly over them. They were two slave-level giant-eyed rats!

The giant-eyed rat had already noticed the group of intruding humans, and was waiting for them to get closer, preparing for a sneak attack. The moment Guangyao threw it over, it pounced on them!

"Water Control-Guard!"

"Thunder Seal - Kuangce!"

Xu Zhaoting and Yang Qing only reacted for a second before releasing their magic. Xu Zhaoting's eyes flashed with surprise.

Being able to keep up with his reaction speed, I thought Yang Qing was just a vase in the team, but I was mistaken.

The two giant-eyed rats were knocked down by a thunderbolt as they flew into the air, and their entire bodies were paralyzed, which should last for more than ten seconds.
