Not far behind the Spell Department Recreation Centre, there was a small 2 storey house. It was the home of the owner, Wu Shiyu.
It was morning but Lucky, who was usually at the restaurant, rushed to the house. He leaped up from the wall and slipped into the study through the window. He found Wu Shiyu who was reading in the rocking chair.
Recently, she had not been to the restaurant much. She spent most of her time in the room reading. Most of them were detective novels. She appeared to be studying something.
Currently, she was holding a short story collection by Keigo Higashino. Seeing Lucky rush over, Wu Shiyu asked, "What's wrong?"
"This is bad, this is bad!" Lucky rushed to the rocking chair and scratched his ears and cheeks in anxiety. "The Special Ops has sent people to capture you!"
"Hmm?" Wu Shiyu frowned when he heard that. He glanced out the window. "Why so sudden?"
After Dirty-minded Jun's death, there was a lot of internal turmoil in Phecda. One of the biggest changes was the establishment of the 'Special Ops'.
The Special Ops was different from the Action Department, its members were all elites trained in spells and the Ancient Seal. In fact, many of them were transferred from the Spell Department and the Ancient Seal Department but they were now a different faction. This was because the head of the Special Ops, Ji Chengtao, was one of the people who advocated for the investigation of Gu Jun. The reason for the establishment of the Special Ops was obvious, it was to keep the Spell Department in check and balance the faction led by Tong Ye.
Wu Shiyu only knew this information. The Special Ops was the most secretive department among the secretive departments. Tong Ye's faction was completely excluded.
Tong Ye told everyone, "There's no need to guess, this department is here to keep an eye on us. Be prepared to deal with them."
However, no one expected them to arrive that day.
"A Zoog has been bribed!" The Zoog sighed. "It was that Fei Shan. I heard after 10 chicken drumsticks, he spilled the beans. He even added details to his story. He said you were planning to revive Doctor Gu, you were planning to summon the black goat … That was when the Special Ops arrived."
Wu Shiyu nodded and turned back to the detective novel. "But how did you know about my Dirty-minded Jun's revival plan? Also, how did you know that it was Fei Shan who told you? "
She had told Sister Liang about this at first. After the psychological counseling session, Sister Liang had reminded her not to tell anyone else. It was easy for problems to arise.
She only told Tong Ye, Deng Ximei, Cai Zixuan, Wang Ruoxiang, Lou Xiaoning, Uncle Dan and Peacock that they were all trustworthy, the core members of their 'faction'. She wanted to hear if they had any ideas or help.
They believed that this plan had a certain possibility of being realized, but it could not be rushed, and they had to be careful of falling into darkness.
Deng Ximei, Peacock and the rest were sent to the Mysterium World to study Pnakotus, to find a way to enter the city. They would also seek help from Feng Peiqian because if this plan worked, perhaps Yu Chi would be able to come back to life as well.
But how to reach the black goat's womb without summoning the black goat's power was another problem.
At the time, Wu Siyu had considered this possibility. The key to success was still Pnakotus' ability to transcend time and space. If the Black Goat could not handle it, then she would use the lab rat. No matter what life form it was, she had to revive Dirty-minded Jun first.
He was smart, resourceful and had many ideas. After he was revived, even if he was a lab rat, he would be able to find a way to turn himself back into a human.
As for whether to summon Shub-Niggurath again to reach the black goat's womb …
Wu Siyu did consider this but she knew Dirty-minded Jun would not agree to it. Even if he was resurrected, he would not be happy. That alone was not enough.
However, she did not discuss this with Lucky or any of the other Zoogs.
"This …" Lucky choked on his words. He scratched his head but could not come up with an explanation. In the end, he said, "We Zoogs have excellent hearing. When you were receiving Sister Liang's counselling at the psychology building, I happened to pass by …"
"Then it was you who leaked the secret."
"That's not right!" Lucky slapped the ground. "Doctor Gu's death has saddened us Zoogs and I've lost several kilograms. When I heard there was a chance for Doctor Gu to come back to life, I was so happy that I couldn't even form a coherent sentence … Only Fatty Shan, Fatty Peng and Fatty Ji know about this. I've warned them not to tell anyone. I didn't expect Fatty Shan to be bought over so easily by the Special Ops. "
Wu Shiyu was not surprised. If one Zoog knew about this, then all the Zoogs knew.
On the day of Dirty-minded Jun's death, many Zoogs were present. The higher-ups knew this news could not be hidden for long. Therefore, the changes within Phecda arrived quickly.
"I guess it's all up to fate." Wu Shiyu swayed his chair slightly as he picked up the book with both hands. "They've been plotting how to capture me for a long time. They can't do a good job with me and they're afraid that I'll avenge Dirty-minded Jun. Keeping me alive will be a threat. If not for that reason, there will be other reasons. "
"Yes, yes, yes, that's right." Lucky nodded.
His ears perked up to listen to the slightest sound. He said anxiously, "They've already entered the base and are heading towards the restaurant. There's a large group of them and they're ready to fight. You'd better run, I know there's a secret tunnel outside but with your size … "
Wu Siyu, on the other hand, was reading her book calmly. She said lazily, "Ji Li, go out and tell everyone that there's no need to hold them back. Just let the people from the Special Ops come and tell me personally. I'm just about to finish the deciphering so I won't be going out to greet them. "
Jill was about to listen to the order and sneak out, but he stopped in a daze. "Wait, are you really not going to consider running away?"
If this was someone else, he would have retreated to the side to watch the show.
However, after spending so much time with Wu Siyu, he really did not wish for anything to happen to her. There was indeed a friendship between humans and Zoogs.
"Why should I run?" Wu Shiyu said calmly, "Last time, I told Dirty-minded Jun to run but he didn't so I won't run either. But I'm not as nice as he is now. Tell them to come, I want to see what they can do. "
Lucky looked at the lazy figure who sat on the rocking chair and a chill crept up his spine.
Normally, Wu Siyu was just a loafer in the Spell Department but … Ji Li knew she was not as simple as she appeared, she was not a normal person.
That day at Mo Bei, Wu Shiyu drew a multi-colored cat and suddenly her soul disappeared and so did the cat in the painting … Lucky was the only living being in the room. It was a strange feeling, it was as unpredictable as Ulthar's cat.
Jill felt that it was better for him to worry about his own safety, so he quickly slipped away.
