Yes, emptiness.
Luo Nan's consciousness wandered within the living starry sky, sweeping across the densely packed stars. However, he was unable to find the structure of the middle-aged man's Life Sketch. Not even the shrouding nebula that powerful people were accustomed to could be found. Luo Nan was unable to see anything that he could use as a reference.
However, the middle-aged man was just a few hundred meters away, chatting with Mo Ya, Hai Jin, and Wang Mo. They talked about the performance in the evening and the style and characteristics of the Mountain Stream band. From their words, it was clear that they were experienced fans of the music industry, or even industry insiders.
That's right, I can use my mental senses to interfere with the material plane, and I can clearly sense his vital signs. His breathing, heartbeat, and body temperature were normal.
The physical body can be seen, but the spirit is nothingness?
Luo Nan felt his blood run cold for a time. Is this fellow a human or a ghost?
This was the first time Luo Nan encountered such a situation ever since he constructed the living starry sky. Back when he was at Fudong Great Dao's Frost River Reality, he sensed President Ouyang's Logic World. He sensed the long-distance clash between Her Majesty Empress Wu and the upper echelons of the Order of Justice, causing the starry sky to sway and nearly collapse. That was a real feeling. It was absolutely not an emptiness that he could not touch now.
Luo Nan was stupefied for a few seconds before he suddenly came to a realization. Such a strange character was standing together with his sister. It was hard to understand what he was thinking.
Without another word, he turned around and ran. Halfway through, he suddenly realized something and used the HexaEar to send a message to Qin Yikun, who was not far away from him. Qin Yikun transferred the image he saw to Qin Yikun. "Help me investigate this man. He's with my sister now. I'm on my way there. Also, I need help."
Speaking to this point, Luo Nan recalled how Mo Ya had addressed the middle-aged man. He added: "This person's name is Luo Yuan. It's probably this sound … …"
Things had happened in a rush. Luo Nan's explanation was like a clap of thunder on the flat ground. It startled Qin Yikun so much that he was in a complete mess.
The exclusive security personnel, who had been slowly tailing them in the car, had their pleasant afternoon time come to an end. People jumped out of their cars one after another and ran wildly in Luo Nan's direction. Qin Yikun was the fastest to arrive. He blocked Luo Nan before he could turn into the underground passageway where Mo Ya and the others were.
"Mr. Luo, please let us handle this."
Qin Yikun didn't give Luo Nan the chance to refuse. He relied on his powerful arm strength to firmly control Luo Nan at the corner. At the same time, he ordered his underlings to split into two groups. One of the groups carried light weapons and quickly approached Mo Ya's position, locking onto the dangerous target.
Everything had just been arranged when Luo Yuan suddenly smiled from Mo Ya's side. His gaze swept to the side to the rear. He was clearly pointing at the corner that was blocking Luo Nan and Qin Yikun.
Luo Nan used his mental senses to observe this detail. His heart skipped a beat, but he saw the middle-aged man bid farewell to Mo Ya. "I still have things to do today, so I can't chat much. I'll be leaving first. I wish you all a successful performance."
This person shook hands with Mo Ya and the others one by one. Even Ma Lou and Huang Xiangdong, who were drunk and muddle-headed, were not spared. Then, he passed by them and went straight down the underground tunnel.
Luo Nan and Qin Yikun both let out sighs of relief when they saw this situation. Qin Yikun immediately gave a more dependable order: "Follow him evenly. Don't act rashly."
A few seconds after the order was issued, Mr. Luo Yuan turned into Aisle 4 not far away and disappeared from most people's sight.
The security personnel in charge of tracking reported, "He went up the escalator and entered the municipal plaza area. It's estimated that he has left a safe distance. Should we continue tracking him?"
Qin Yikun glanced at Luo Nan. "Continue. Connect to the surrounding surveillance. We need to confirm the time period before and after... I'll contact the branch and do my best to figure out his social identity as soon as possible."
The last sentence was directed at Luo Nan.
Luo Nan nodded slightly and let out a secret breath of relief.
Due to the privacy of the living starry sky, Luo Nan couldn't say clearly why he suspected this person. He was worried that he wouldn't be able to explain himself. But clearly, he was overthinking things. With his current status in the Society and his famed mental senses, Qin Yikun and the other security personnel, from top to bottom, didn't question him at all. They even used the high-grade resources of the branch without the slightest hesitation.
Soon, Luo Yuan's movement trajectory appeared on the HexaEar. Actually, Luo Nan had locked onto him. Though the mental plane was empty and Luo Nan was unable to directly locate him, he could still indirectly monitor him through the surrounding personnel.
Under everyone's "gazes", Luo Yuan boarded a flying car that had been waiting for a long time outside the municipal square and slowly drove away.
Luo Yuan didn't make any other contact during this time. And the latest surveillance results came out. This person had entered the municipal plaza area for around twenty minutes. He had been walking the entire time without stopping until he met Mo Ya and her party.
It seemed that this person had come specifically to chat with Mo Ya and the others. He would leave after he finished chatting.
Anyone could feel an extremely strong sense of purpose when they saw the movement trajectory organized by the security personnel. Luo Nan just felt a chill from the bottom of his heart. The actions of this Luo Yuan posed an immeasurable threat to him and even his family members!
Luo Nan couldn't help but make a few deductions in his mind. The results made his scalp faintly swell. This sort of monster was empty on the mental plane. Most of Luo Nan's mental abilities became mere decorations. If they were to really fight, Luo Nan could count on very, very few methods ….
Qin Yikun's expression was grave. "I'll contact the military police outside and find a reason to interrogate them."
Mo Ya and the others had already walked to the corner by now. They were a bit surprised to see Luo Nan and a stranger leaning against this place.
Luo Nan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked Mo Ya as if nothing had happened, "I saw you talking to someone just now. Who's that?"
"Oh, that. His name is Luo Yuan. We met at the Man Town Music Festival. He's an uncle with an awesome smoky voice. He's especially good at seducing people."
Wang Mo added, "The expression of the Wilderness Minor Tune is very strong. According to him, he can only get the taste out of searching for treasures and picking up girls in the Wilderness all year round. "
The Wilderness? Luo Nan and Qin Yikun exchanged glances once more. This was even more troublesome. Were vagrants included?
Qin Yikun immediately gave an order to his subordinates. "Search the vagrant database. Prioritize the area around Xia City."
All information from the security personnel went through the Psychic Wave Network. Outsiders wouldn't be able to find out. However, Qin Yikun standing here was already very eye-catching. Mo Ya cast her gaze over. She was a bit puzzled.
"This is?"
"Oh, Brother Qin is a friend I met at the daoguan."
Luo Nan's brain suddenly jammed when he spoke to this point. He could only throw the blame away.
Luckily, Qin Yikun's skill at throwing the blame was quite high. He had a calm smile on his face as he took the initiative to introduce himself. "I'm Qin Yikun. I met Nanster during an exchange at the daoguan. I work for a security company. Our company is responsible for patrolling the area for the university students' demonstration today. "
Mo Ya gave a simple introduction of the people here, and the two sides got to know each other.
While they were introducing each other, the latest information regarding Luo Yuan came back. Luo Nan and Qin Yikun didn't feel too good when they received the news.
"No one? How could there be no one? "
"Yes. There were no traces of this person in the car. The driver is an employee of a regular car rental company. He doesn't know anything. He said that after the customer got off the car, he never came back …. I feel like he's missing a piece of his memory. It's like he was swallowed by a ghost. "
The road that stopped Luo Yuan's flying car had already exceeded the range of Luo Nan's mental senses. Luo Nan was unable to directly sense the situation at the scene, but the information he received made his hair stand on end.
Afterwards, Qin Yikun requested his subordinates to investigate the surveillance, but there were no traces. That person really was like a spirit. He suddenly appeared and then disappeared.
The situation was heading toward a serious trend.
Luo Nan and Qin Yikun exchanged opinions. On the plane of reality, Qin Yikun was a complete opposite of his usual taciturn attitude. He faced Mo Ya and the others with a warm smile. "I heard from Nanster that you guys are signed artists and public figures. The flow of people in front is getting bigger and bigger. Soon a group of students will pass by. It's inconvenient to continue like this …. How about this? I'll open up a reserved safe passage. Everyone can pass through here. It'll save us a lot of trouble. "
Mo Ya and Hai Jing never thought that there would be such a good thing. They were a bit hesitant. "Uh, is that okay?"
"No problem. It's our duty to avoid possible accidents. " Qin Yikun spoke a few words through his wristband in a dignified manner. Then he guided everyone into the closed and deactivated escalator.
The deactivated escalator started operating once more as soon as they went up. Now Mo Ya and the others had no more doubts about Qin Yikun's status and authority. Plus, they were very interested in the mysterious and hot-blooded daoist career. Soon, everyone started chatting enthusiastically.
Little did they know that many people were holding their breaths in rapt attention in this temporarily opened safe passage. Some were so nervous that their palms were sweating. Everyone couldn't relax for even a moment before the fellow who called himself Luo Yuan re-entered the surveillance field of view.
Luo Nan and the others returned to the Tonghui Building in a strange atmosphere. Qin Yikun couldn't follow them back in here. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to explain his identity.
But the Society was truly resourceful. Luo Nan had just said goodbye to Qin Yikun and entered the private elevator when someone who called himself the deputy head of the building's security followed them. He wore a well-ironed uniform, and his gaze crossed with Luo Nan's.
This deputy head had just gone for a morning run with Luo Nan two days ago.
He was an ability user retired from the military. His name was Gaud, and he was the deputy head of Luo Nan's security team. He and Qin Yikun took turns taking care of Luo Nan's daily security work. Today was supposed to be an off-duty day, but considering that the situation in the municipal square was different from home and school, he rushed over to strengthen the security force. He was a responsible uncle.
Although Hai Jing was one of the people in charge of Mingtang Culture here, it was impossible for him to control the security personnel of the entire office building. He didn't care when he saw that there were no problems with Gaud's clothes and authority. As the elevator went up, he asked a few questions about the situation of the underground passageway that led directly to the backstage.
Gaud answered fluently and gave him the contact number of the person in charge. Hai Jing had already saved it, but he was still very grateful.
