Perhaps the four trainee apostles who died in the trial would never have thought that the most valuable item on the plane was the "ordinary" hammer in Irin's hands.
Even in the future apostle circle, this was an extremely rare "rule item".
What was a "rule item"?
It was a magical item that could be used under certain "rules" in the Inner World.
Take this life-saving hammer as an example.
The description clearly stated that other than being able to break open "doors" and "windows", there was nothing special about it.
Even if this hammer was used to hit a normal person's head, it would not cause any real damage.
However, as long as it came into contact with the existence of "doors" and "windows", this hammer would be able to break them open without any reason.
It ignored logic, science, and principles. It only followed the "rules".
Irin lovingly put the [Ordinary Hammer of Life] back into the storage dimension.
Normally, it was ordinary, but in certain special situations, it could be called a "godly item".
"I didn't think that I would be able to randomly draw the [Ordinary Series] item. It is indeed worthy of being an S-grade item …"
In his impression, the [Ordinary Series] had many interesting items, but Irin never had the chance to have one.
For example …
It was just an ordinary insecticide.
An ordinary lubricant.
It was just an ordinary kettle.
And so on.
In short, they all looked so ordinary and mediocre.
…
…
Irin slept for a night and arrived at school on time the next day.
Regarding Xiao Yang's absence, the teachers and students of Qingcheng High School did not show too much suspicion.
Irin went to class as usual. She followed the others in PE class. Under the guidance of the PE teacher, she practiced the [Body-strengthening Technique] and the [Dragon Swimming Steps]. She did not show any signs of abnormality.
During this time, Irin took the time to call Xiao Yang's phone.
Exactly three times.
When it was close to the end of school, the homeroom teacher stopped Irin who was about to leave. He casually asked, "Irin, Xiao Yang did not come to school today? As his good friend, you should try to persuade him. Even though he displayed attributes that far surpassed normal students during the preliminary test, and he's also been reserved for internal recruitment by the 'Special Warfare Department' of many key universities, since he's still a student, he'll still have to come to school … "
He rambled on for a while.
Irin's face showed a hint of awkwardness. She could only nod.
"Teacher, I understand … But you also know that Xiao Yang is not from normal students like us. As for whether he listens to me or not …"
"Genius? So what if he is a genius! Hmph, I have seen many geniuses.............. Even if he is a genius, he cannot neglect learning and training. Otherwise, he will disappear from the crowd! "
The homeroom teacher Irin's face.
"By the way, Yi Lin, I heard that you're very interested in Tower Studies?"
"A little." Irin nodded and then smiled helplessly, "Teacher, you also know that my total attributes are not high. If I want to enter a key university, I can only apply for this kind of national key subject."
The homeroom teacher Irin patted Irin's shoulder and encouraged her, "Don't worry. You are a very smart student. Your mental attributes were not bad during the preliminary test. I believe that you can do it! Look at that famous Pagoda Studies researcher, Mo Li. She's only a little over 18 years old, which is about the same age as you. However, because of her achievements in Pagoda Studies, she's also listed as a national first-class key protected talent. "
Molly, she is different …
Irin sighed in her heart. She thought of a certain person, but she did not say it out loud.
Seeing that Irin did not speak, the homeroom teacher Irin did not continue to nag. She packed up her things and smiled, "There are still more than ten days before the 'retest'. At that time, you also know that there will be special authoritative personnel who will use the most professional testing equipment to conduct the 'retest' on you. Remember to adjust your state, recover your energy, and work hard to get good results!"
"Understood, teacher."
After taking a few steps, the homeroom teacher Irin turned back and reminded her, "Remember to remind Xiao Yang to not always skip classes. It will not look good on his resume."
Irin nodded awkwardly, "Then I will try to find Xiao Yang and persuade him."
"That's right. Good friends must urge each other!"
The homeroom teacher Irin shook his head and sighed as he walked away.
What he didn't see was that behind him, the corners of Yi Lin's mouth had slightly curled into an imperceptible arc.
…
…
Irin took the maglev rail bus directly to the district where Xiao Yang's house was located.
When she was at the door, Irin dialed Xiao Yang's number again.
"I am still the same young man from before. I have not changed at all. Time is just a test. The faith planted in my heart has not diminished at all …"
A classical music that was popular in the last century came from behind the door.
Then, Irin entered the password of Xiao Yang's house and pushed the door open.
"Welcome, guest."
The AI butler's sweet voice was very refreshing.
"Xiao Yang? Xiao Yang? Are you home? "
Irin looked left and right. Her expression showed just the right amount of doubt and nervousness.
When Irin finally 'accidentally found' Xiao Yang's body, he pulled out the throat that he had already prepared downstairs.
"Ah —"
…
…
30 minutes later.
More than ten police cars with flashing red and blue lights surrounded the entire district.
There were also a few layers of warning tape at the door, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.
Xu Zhiyong squatted in front of the body. Wearing thin latex gloves, he carefully examined the body that was lying on the ground in a hideous state.
"A clean cut to the throat. The amount of blood loss is also consistent. Hmm … There are no other wounds on the surface of the body. It looks like we don't need to wait for the forensic doctor to confirm that this is a fatal wound …"
"This case is a bit troublesome …"
At this moment, a young police officer whispered in Xu Zhiyong's ear, "Brother Xu, Captain Gu is here."
"Oh?"
Xu Zhiyong stood up and looked back. He saw a beautiful woman with short hair and a cold face walking in with a gloomy face.
"Old Xu, why didn't you inform me that such a big thing happened?"
The beautiful woman's face was as cold as ice. She did not care about Xu Zhiyong's face at all and spoke coldly in front of everyone.
"Well, isn't Captain Gu on vacation? So … "
"Hmph, in the face of crime, there is no vacation. You have worked for so many years, and you don't even know this common sense? If it wasn't for the notice from the higher-ups … Forget it, tell me the situation first. "
"Yes, Captain Gu!" Xu Zhiyong did not look unhappy at all. In fact, he did not dare to be unhappy.
Gu Sinan, female, 25 years old. Two years ago, she graduated from one of the top universities in the capital, the Special Warfare Division. She graduated with honors in all the "Special Warfare Division" subjects. She was proficient in many military skills. Her strength, agility, and mental strength attributes were 11. She was a genius among geniuses. No one knew why she was assigned to a small place like Qing Cheng.
Originally, the captain of the Qing Cheng Police Department's Criminal Investigation Team One was Xu Zhiyong. However, when Gu Sinan came, even though Xu Zhiyong was an experienced veteran, he had no choice but to obediently step down after seeing Gu Sinan's skills and abilities. After all, this was the world of the younger generation.
"The deceased was Xiao Yang, male, 18 years old."
Xu Zhiyong began to report the results of the investigation.
