Although Sakura Apartment's' Blessing of the Holy Land 'had a considerable degree of protection, there would be loopholes under certain conditions.
The most important one was that when the door of Sakura Apartment was opened through the proper means (from the inside or with a key), the area at the door was not protected, so anyone could enter.
If someone saw this and sneaked into Sakura Apartment to steal the artifact when Song Yu or Xu Shenxing's dad opened the door, then this matter could be explained.
By the way, the local loli was able to enter Sakura Apartment and take away Mo Li's game console using this method.
"Therefore, as long as we know when Song Yu and the others came to Sakura Apartment, then we can take a gamble …" Xu Shenxing continued with a serious face, "The alley facing Sakura Apartment's main entrance is monitored. We should be able to see the surveillance through the police's channels. As long as we pull out the surveillance of those few times and investigate the people who entered and exited the alley one by one as suspects, we might be able to find the culprit."
"This is a bit too …" Qin Xingyan said softly and hesitantly.
"Too presumptuous, right?" Xu Shenxing understood what the girl wanted to say.
"Hmm," seeing that Xu Shenxing was not dissatisfied, Qin Xingyan nodded, "To be able to sneak into the apartment when Song Yu and the others opened the door without them noticing, they definitely aren't ordinary people, right? Hoping that the culprit was captured by the surveillance camera, sure enough, it's still a bit … "
"It's okay, Mo Li has the 'See Through' skill. No matter if the other party is invisible, concept dilution, or hallucination, she can see clues from the video."
Xu Shenxing waved his hand and didn't have much doubt about this.
"But there's no reason for the culprit to come in from the alley, right? It's normal for the culprit to use the ground or simply fly in from the sky … "
"That's why I said this isn't a very important clue." Xu Shenxing spread his hands, "In short, let's just give it a shot."
Since Xu Shenxing had already put it this way, Qin Xingyan naturally didn't need to continue arguing with him.
After asking Song Yu and Xu Dongsheng about the time they came to Ying Apartment, Xu Shenxing once again ran to Xiao Zhengyi's office and asked him, who was so busy that he was disoriented, to help him get a permit to access the surveillance video.
Whether it was Song Yu or Xu Shenxing's father, they were not the type to leave the door open after entering the house. Therefore, there was not much time to copy the surveillance footage.
Therefore, it didn't take long for Xu Shenxing to return to Ying Apartment with the USB flash drive containing the copies of the surveillance videos.
However, before the group of people from Sakura Apartments could start watching the surveillance footage, the doorbell rang at the entrance.
"Who is it?"
Although it was very strange who would come to Sakura Apartment at this time, Xu Shenxing immediately went to open the door.
Outside the door was a woman who looked to be about 25 or 26 years old. She was wearing a plain black coat and had long black hair that was as long as Chang Xiaoxian's, the campus belle of Jiangjin City. She exuded an intellectual vibe from head to toe.
Xu Shenxing remembered her – he met her in the office last time he went to the super administrative office.
"Hello." The woman said politely.
However, her tone and accent were a bit strange. It was very stiff, as if she didn't often speak Chinese.
Thinking about how Xiao Zhengyi referred to her as an "international friend" from the United Nations, this strange part was not incomprehensible.
"What can I do for you?"
After Xu Shenxing looked at her for a moment, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be a bit rude, so he asked.
"You are Master Xu Shenxing?" The woman didn't answer his question. Instead, she asked a question.
Although he felt that her accent was strange, Xu Shenxing still nodded, "Are you here to see me?"
"I was introduced by Mr. Xiao Zhengyi."
The woman's words were perfectly articulated, but it sounded even more strange, "It's not convenient to talk here. Can we talk inside?"
"That's not impossible …"
Xu Shenxing sighed and invited her into Sakura Apartment.
Although he had an ominous feeling, Xiao Zhengyi did help Xu Shenxing solve a lot of problems this time, so he still had to give him a small favor.
At least he had to listen to the other party's plan first. If it was really outrageous, it didn't matter if he refused.
Probably because she didn't expect there to be so many people in Sakura Apartment, the intellectual woman with long black hair was obviously stunned when she saw Qin Xingyan and the others after entering the apartment.
This made Xu Shenxing give Xiao Zhengyi a thumbs up in his heart. It seemed that the guy didn't reveal the exact situation of Sakura Apartment to the other party. Otherwise, she wouldn't show such an expression.
However, the guest's psychological quality was very good. She quickly restrained the surprise on her face. After nodding to Qin Xingyan and the others to greet them, she found a seat on the sofa and sat down under Xu Shenxing's signal.
"First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Tantai Li."
"Someone from the Celestial Empire?" Xu Shenxing was a little surprised. He had thought that the other party was from Fusang or Korea.
"To be precise, I'm Chinese. My current nationality is Great Britain. It took me more than three months to learn Chinese."
Tantai Li didn't seem to be good at joking. When she spoke, her expression didn't change at all. She always looked serious.
To be honest, Xu Shenxing had a hard time dealing with this type of person.
"Now, can you tell me why you're here?" So Xu Shenxing asked straightforwardly, "The people here are all trustworthy. If you trust me, just say it."
"I heard from Mr. Xiao Zhengyi that you are the guardian of your place, so I came to ask for your help." Tantai Li was silent for a moment, then she seemed to have made up her mind. She began to explain to Xu Shenxing and the others, "Before that, I need to explain my identity. To be precise, I'm a member of Interpol's supernatural criminal special forces branch 'Cerberus'. Regarding this, please keep it a secret with your assistant."
"Hellhound?" Compared to Qin Xingyan who specialized in the mythology of China, Chihaya Fukayama, who was more involved in a broader field, immediately reacted.
"To be precise, it's' Hellhound '." Tantai Li corrected.
"I can guarantee that we won't reveal your identity unless it's necessary." Because keeping the other party's identity a secret was the premise of cooperation, and there was nothing worth revealing in this matter, Xu Shenxing agreed and made a 'please continue' gesture.
Anyway, he also implied that they could reveal it under necessary circumstances, so it shouldn't matter.
Maybe Tantai Li didn't understand the meaning in Xu Shenxing's words, or maybe she understood it but didn't think it mattered, so she really continued.
"As the name suggests, the 'Cerberus' branch is responsible for hunting down and imprisoning some vicious criminals who have a considerable degree of supernatural abilities and can't be sentenced to death for some reasons."
"Is there such a criminal?" Xu Shenxing was a little surprised. For him who used physical means to solve the enemy most of the time, he had almost never encountered such a criminal.
"For example … For example, there is a criminal who uses supernatural means such as magic to load the concept of 'plague' in an entire area into his body, giving him the ability to control the plague. If he is killed at this time, then the 'plague' in his body will be amplified by all the karma effects caused by this ability due to the correction of the law of causality. Then, it will be applied to that area again. The consequences can almost be the same as Chernobyl, instantly destroying all the humans in an area. "
Tantai Li didn't look like she was joking at all, and that kind of confident expression seemed to have already seen such a hellish scene. Chihaya Fukayama couldn't help but shiver when he thought of that scene.
"I see, I almost understand." Xu Shenxing nodded, "Since you are here, then there is an 80% chance that someone has escaped from prison and you want me to help catch him, right?"
"Yes, that's right." Tantai Li nodded, "Sir is indeed the guardian of Jiang Jin. You are unexpectedly astute."
No, generally speaking, I can only think of this situation, right?
Xu Shenxing ridiculed in his heart.
Even though that was the case, if there really was a vicious person who came to Jiangjin, he would definitely have to confront the other party sooner or later. Thinking about it this way, it would not be a bad thing to deal with it as soon as possible to minimize the impact.
"Then can you explain to me the appearance and specific abilities of the criminal who ran here?"
"The other party's appearance is an ordinary Asian male. He is about 180 centimeters tall and has a medium physique. He has the ability to cast spells and knows a lot of different kinds of spells. Almost all the spells are like an extension of his arm, and he is very proficient in them." Tantai Li's expression was very solemn, "But this is not the most important thing … The most important thing is that the guy has an immortal body!"
"Immortal body? How is that possible … "
Xu Shenxing curled his lips to express his disbelief.
It was not that he had not encountered enemies with super-fast self-healing. That kind of enemy seemed to have an immortal body, and it was useless no matter how they were killed. Even if they were crushed into ashes, they could still regenerate from the cellular level.
Unfortunately, this level of immortality was not Xu Shenxing's match at all. He could basically wipe them out with one sword — there was no self-healing ability that could not be solved by turning the enemy into molecules. If that did not work, then turn them into atoms …
"Unfortunately, it's true. We've done many experiments and used many methods, but we still couldn't kill it. Our team leader even dragged out a missile, but it still didn't have any effect. In the end, it even seized the opportunity to kill one of my colleagues and escape."
Speaking of this, Tantai Li's expression changed slightly. It seemed that she had a good relationship with that colleague.
