"Congratulations on your recovery, Lov!"
Fang Xian handed a bouquet of flowers to Lov as a gift for him to be discharged from the hospital.
"To be honest … I was more looking forward to a bottle of champagne …" Lov joked and took the flowers. "Your leave is over. I've submitted an application for you to become an official investigator. It should be approved soon."
"Okay."
Fang Xian nodded and suddenly looked at Lov. "You … Do you have anything else to say to me?"
"Yes."
Lov was a little surprised, but when he thought of Rocca's super spiritual sense, he did not doubt it at all. "You have to be careful in the future. If someone suggests that you apply for an investigation voluntarily, do not agree."
"Oh? Why? "
Fang Xian asked.
"As an investigator, as long as you're an ordinary human, there's a limit to your endurance. Also, the investigation will be conducted in a situation where you're completely isolated from the outside world. There are too many possibilities …"
Lov's expression was solemn. "In short … if there's such a thing, as long as it's not forced, do not agree."
"It sounds like someone wants to frame me, and you've already stopped it for me once?"
Fang Xian sniffed the air.
At the same time, fragments of illusions from the previous meeting flashed past his eyes.
He seemed to see Lov arguing with an old man and slamming the table.
"Hmm … This old man looks familiar. He seems to be one of the managers of the branch. His name is Catien?"
Fang Xian secretly remembered this face.
And Lov did not suspect anything.
After all, Fang Xian had hidden half of his spiritual sense. It was already very impressive for him to be able to communicate with some vague information.
He did not know that Fang Xian's spiritual sense had already reached the point where he could trace the source of a deity's true name.
This was already at the level of touching the abyss!
Even those legendary investigators did not have such terrifying spiritual sense.
At this moment, just a few words from him was enough to extract a lot of useful information.
"This Catien, does he want to die?"
Fang Xian lowered his head. His expression suddenly became somewhat cold.
Of course, he knew that if he were just an ordinary investigator, he might not be able to defeat the powerful old fox even if he played for ten years. Maybe he would just find an excuse to get rid of him.
'If I want to do this, I can't do it openly … I just have to do it secretly and kill him.'
This was the convenience of having a hidden identity.
Why do I feel like I've done this before?
Fang Xian inexplicably felt that this scene was somewhat familiar. He immediately thought of what he had done when he was the White Ape Great Sage. He could not help but nod as he understood where this was coming from.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about our upcoming work."
Lov brought Fang Xian into his office. "After the higher-ups took over Lunatic Town, the lockdown is almost complete. Our next focus will be on the Fallen Star Church. We suffered heavy casualties during the engagement party. It's definitely a rare case in the branch's history."
"So … the focus of the next step is to catch the rats in the sewers and kill them! Of course, there's also the Windchaser Order! "
Lov's voice was loud and clear.
Fang Xian, on the other hand, was a little speechless. He really wanted to tell Lov, "You're too optimistic …"
What Lov knew about the Fallen Star Church was only a small part of it.
According to the confession of a high-ranking officer like Shera, the Fallen Star Church was basically an alliance of heretical sects. Their influence was not to be underestimated.
Fang Xian feigned ignorance and opened the dossier. The first thing that came into his eyes was the arrest warrant for Shera and the bald elder.
He pouted and did not say anything else. "Then … this is our next work."
"Yes."
"Sure. Let's get started. "
Fang Xian smiled and tried his best to play the part of an ordinary investigator.
…
"That damn Mr. Ring …"
Walking in the bookstore, Smith unconsciously rubbed his butt.
He had to pay the price for staying up late to read novels. Not only did his parents teach him a lesson, but his allowance was also deducted.
But … But …
One could never understand the desire of an avid reader to read more books.
He only ate bread every day and saved his lunch fee at school, but he still came to the bookstore.
"Found it … Horror Mountain Villa 2!"
Smith found his target and grabbed it happily.
He noticed that it was the last book on the shelf.
Obviously, Mr. Ring's novel was selling well.
"Hope it's not too much of a torture …"
Smith had learned the term torture without a teacher, and he felt like it would become a sensational genre.
He had a plan this time. After school, he did not join any club activities. Instead, he hid in an abandoned field, sat on a circular hollow cement pillar, and started reading eagerly.
After a long time, Smith finally put down the novel in satisfaction. "Mr. Ring's work is still so enjoyable to read. But why does it have to torture the main character … Most importantly, there's such a huge suspense at the end that hasn't been resolved. Ahhh … I'm so sad, so sad …"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt. He wanted to do something.
Otherwise, he would explode with rage.
Smith jumped to the ground and kicked the stones on the side of the road.
Kacha!
Suddenly, he heard a sound that should not have been there.
"It's a metal box … Is it a toy for the kids nearby? A secret treasure? "
Smith looked at the rusty box that was dug out from the soil, and a mischievous and curious expression appeared on his face. He opened the box.
After opening the rusty box, there were no toys or pocket money like he expected.
On the contrary, there were only a few thin pieces of yellowed paper. Most of the words were corroded, and a small part of them could not be seen clearly.
"What is this?"
Smith read the contents of the paper with a little curiosity. "The Lost God, Fang … Warlock! The source of warlocks, the … Lord of the Heavens, the … Ruler of the Calamity, the immortal existence, the king of endless time and space! "
He stuttered and unconsciously read out the name.
Whoosh whoosh.
A light breeze blew.
At this moment, Smith felt like his heart was being gripped by something.
In front of his eyes, images appeared one after another.
Those black shadows disappeared in a flash and were hard to catch, but they imprinted part of the knowledge in his mind.
…
Time seemed to pass very slowly, but in the outside world, it was only an instant.
Pa!
The novel in Smith's hand fell to the ground, but he did not notice it at all. He carefully picked up the metal box and stumbled away, mumbling to himself.
"After seeing the true horror, even the sunlight and flowers have lost their color …"
