Mofan was quite a smart person. He immediately lowered his voice and asked when he realized that Leng Qing was trying to hide something, "Senior Sister, do you know something?"
"My men have collected some information. After that, I went to investigate the identity of the two rotting corpses that first appeared in the downtown area. At first, I didn't have any suspects, but now, I think there's someone very suspicious." Leng Qing was tall and slim, with a sharp gaze. She had a murderous aura that was different from most women.
Luckily, she was Ling Ling's sister. Normally, Mofan would not dare to get close to a woman like her.
"Senior Sister, are you suspecting … the plague?" Mofan learned something from Leng Qing's words.
"Do you want to save the snake?" asked Leng Qing.
Li Tian and Leng Qing were both inclined toward protecting the Totem Beasts. They had already asked Mr. Lu, who was in charge of medicine. According to Mr. Lu, even though the Black Totem Snake's blood was effective against the plague, it was unable to cure the plague. It implied that the Black Totem Snake might not be the cause of the plague. Besides, the White Town was the place where the plague was most serious. The Black Totem Snake had always been residing in West Lake. Even if he was the source of the plague, it would only be around West Lake that the plague was spreading.
The Head of the Enforcement Union, Li Tian, and Leng Qing had been investigating the matter. They had found some clues, but they were still unable to find the real culprit.
"I do, but …" Mofan glanced at Tangyue, who was standing at the edge of the causeway in a daze.
Mofan did not have any useful evidence on his side. His instincts told him that the Black Totem Snake was not evil.
Mo Fan couldn't bear to see Mrs. Tangyue showing a weakness that he had never seen before.
"My men have been sent to West Fortress. There's no one else available. If you're willing to lend me a hand, you should pay a visit to White Town as soon as possible. Check if there are any traces of other unique creatures in the town," said Leng Qing.
"Someone should have already checked that place. Is there any point in me going there to check again?" Mofan said.
White Town was the main area where the disease had occurred. The people from the government and the Judges must have already dug three feet into the ground. What was the point of him going there?
"What if someone deliberately covered it up, or didn't? If the real cause of the disease is discovered, it will be useless no matter how many people we send. I have already sent Ling Ling to White Town. You can meet her there. Remember, we don't have much time left. Once the army of White Magic Falcons is defeated, Zhu Meng will surely come back and kill the Black Totem Snake. By then, we won't be able to find any evidence, "said Leng Qing in a serious tone.
"So Eldest Senior Sister is already investigating this matter. Don't worry, if White Town is really hiding something, I will definitely dig it out! "Mofan patted his chest and said.
"Alright, let's split up. We have to find the truth behind the plague before they return!" Leng Qing said.
"I still don't have any clue. How am I supposed to find it?" blurted out Mofan.
"I've already sent the information to Ling Ling. She will tell you."
"Alright."
…
Leng Qing quickly left. It was hard to tell what important information she had just received.
Either way, Mofan believed it was necessary to finish what he started. Be it the plague caused by the snake, or the truth behind it, he had to find out the truth.
According to Leng Qing, Mofan arrived at White Town in the dark.
White Town was completely sealed off. It was not easy to enter the town. It was very different from a few days ago.
Just as Mofan was worrying about how to enter White Town, Ling Ling called and asked him to meet her at the gate.
Stepping into the heavily guarded gate, Mofan saw Ling Ling standing to the side in a black cheongsam with little plum blossoms. Her big black eyes were staring at Mofan who had arrived late. Her two outstanding twin ponytails made her look extremely cute. Mofan couldn't help but hug her and pinch her wantonly.
"I knew you weren't dead." Ling Ling still looked like an old woman. She looked at Mofan and after a while, a smile appeared on her face.
"You are getting more and more beautiful as you grow." Mofan reached out and pinched her white and tender cheeks.
Ling Ling pouted. She hated it when people pinched her cheeks. She was acting like a noble princess just a moment ago, but now she had turned into a grumpy wild cat. She reached out her claws and scratched Mofan, as if she was going to kill Mofan together with her.
Mofan pressed down Ling Ling's head with his hand. Her tiny arms and legs could no longer touch him. He giggled and said, "Alright, alright, let's get down to business."
"Humph, if you dare pinch me again, I'll chop your hands off!" Ling Ling turned into a fierce little tiger.
"Your sister said you have some information, what is it?" Mofan asked.
"Mm, I'm actually involved in it, too. Around two months ago, my sister asked me to investigate a batch of blood serums from the government. These blood serums are used to supply the relay stations, defense lines, and fortresses in Zhejiang Province. You should know that there are countless casualties from fighting demon creatures every year. Hunters spend a fifth of their income on blood serums, just to prevent themselves from dying from excessive blood loss. Relay stations, defensive lines, and fortresses also require large amounts of these blood serums … "As usual, Lingling opened up a mini laptop and placed it on her little white leg.
Blood serums were a common and expensive medicine. They were mainly used to transport blood.
There were very few Healers, so not everyone could be treated by them. Therefore, the serums that the Healers were able to concoct were extremely important. Among them, blood serums were the ones that Magicians consumed the most. After consuming the blood serums, a Magician's hematopoietic ability would increase by a few dozen times in a short period of time. Many wounds could be healed in a short period of time after consuming the blood serums and bandaging the wounds.
The blood serums were quite expensive. Magicians had to spend a part of their income on them, and the suppliers of the blood serums were extremely wealthy …
"What's wrong with the blood serums?" asked Mofan.
"The blood serums are refined from the blood of demon beasts. The entire process of refining the blood serums has to go through strict supervision. They also have to go through a few tests before they are distributed to the supply stations. They are either supplied to the military, sold to Hunters, or merchants who continue to profit from the price difference … I found out that someone is using something else to replace the blood of demon beasts in the production of the blood serums, resulting in a batch of defective blood serums," said Lingling.
"Black-Hearted merchants?" asked Mofan in surprise.
"The blood serums have always been under the control of the Magic Association. The government also has a part of it. It's easier to deal with the problem if it's a merchant," said Ling Ling.
"Oh?" Mofan raised his eyebrows.
