Inside a containment base near San Francisco, special investigator Zhuo Yue was silently listening to her subordinates' research report on the vampire DNA.
The last time they captured a group of vampires, after transporting them back to the base, they found that all the spawned vampires had been reduced to ashes, the only one that was relatively intact was the leader of the group.
But for some reason, his brain had been destroyed, causing him to be brain dead, and the only thing they captured was his corpse.
Zhuo Yue believed that the strict containment system made it impossible for an outsider to do this, so it must have been the vampire's self-destruction.
So she had been wondering for the past few days, why would a vampire commit suicide? It was as if they knew a lot about CANC, or as if they were trying to hide something.
However, Zhuo Yue wasn't interested in what they were trying to hide, she was completely immersed in researching the characteristics of the vampire DNA.
The property of being able to cure any disease was a fatal temptation for Zhuo Yue. The reason why she worked so hard to become a special investigator in the organization was so that one day, she would be able to find and use an anomaly to save her mother who was dying from a terminal illness.
She knew that doing such a thing without permission was against the rules, and that she would be punished as a D-class member. But she didn't care, as long as she found an effective healing anomaly, she would do anything to obtain it! So when she heard that vampires could cure all incurable diseases, she couldn't wait to capture them.
At this time, the Sector Lord stationed in America found Zhuo Yue and asked: "Zhuo Yue, have you read the information about the assassination of the higher-ups in America by an unknown anomaly?"
Zhuo Yue flipped through the information, but it was a research report on whether or not the vampire bloodline could be artificially transplanted.
"Oi! I'm talking to you! The boss already knows about this, he wants you to investigate it immediately! " The Sector Lord said. Because he was the organization's field agent in charge of the entire America, James had directly contacted him.
Almost at the same time, the HQ's intelligence organization also received the relevant information, so they immediately notified him to investigate the matter and asked Zhuo Yue, who happened to be in San Francisco, to take charge of it.
"Zhuo Yue! This is an order from boss: 06! "
Zhuo Yue finally looked up and impatiently said: "I've read the information, the culprit is in Japan"
The Sector Lord was surprised and asked: "How did you know?"
Zhuo Yue said absent-mindedly, "The murderer killed all Americans. The first batch was the diplomats stationed in Japan. The first five dead officers were the heads of the overseas bases stationed in Japan. Although he later began to kill American officials from other countries, the first thing he did must be the target that he was most concerned about, the target that he hated the most. "
The Realm Master muttered, "But the probability is still too small. Although the first victim was from Japan, this is not enough to prove that the murderer is from Japan."
Zhuo Yue looked at the information and said, "Before we have more clues, this is the only way. Even if it's only 1%, it's the only answer for us."
The Realm Lord nodded and said, "But Japan is so big and has a large population. How can we lock onto an enemy who kills without leaving any traces?"
Zhuo Yue said, "Judging from what he has done, he must hate the United States to the core. He was either persecuted by the American government or bullied by the Americans. Since the victims were all American officials, I'm inclined to the former. Then it's easy. Since he killed a large number of officers stationed in Japan's overseas bases, we can find him from the perspective of war victims. "
The Realm Lord's eyes lit up, then he wondered: "Why don't we start with the Japanese government?"
"Did the Japanese intelligence personnel get any clues?"
"No …"
"Then there's no need to think about it. The fact that Japan's secret anomaly can hide from our intelligence personnel means that they have an extremely thorough confidentiality plan. Under such circumstances, do you think the government or the Chaebol would use a stupid method like direct assassination that has no benefits? If that's the case, then the United States must have received a secret transaction between the two countries, but our intelligence personnel in the United States did not notice the relevant situation. "
Zhuo Yue said again: "The United States and Japan only had one Pacific War. There are not many victims left from that war. Start with the families of the veterans who are still alive and gradually investigate. Also, don't forget the victims of the nuclear explosion. Hiroshima and Nagasaki are the only cities in the world that were attacked by nuclear bombs. We need to keep a close eye on these two cities.
The Realm Lord nodded. Before they had any more clues, it was already very good to be able to narrow down such a large area. As long as they had enough manpower in each of the suspected cities and used the Prophet's Diary, they would be able to greatly increase the containment efficiency.
As for why they didn't directly use the Prophet's Diary, it was because this anomaly's usage was limited, and CANC had already used it many times. Furthermore, the Prophet's Diary would cause the target to lose their memories after 3 minutes, and if the target was moving, they would already be gone by the time the containment personnel arrived. Would they have to use it a second time? CANC wouldn't allow such an inefficient and wasteful usage of the Prophet's Diary.
So they had to first use other methods to lock down the target's range, then use the Prophet's Diary to confirm it.
"I'll help you report your analysis to the boss, but the boss will definitely send you to Japan to command the local containment team." the Realm Lord said.
Zhuo Yue sighed and closed the vampire research report.
"I'm responsible for too many things at once. I still haven't finished dealing with the Nine-tailed Fox and the Lavedo incident, tell the boss that I can't spare any energy."
"Ah? You still haven't caught the Nine-tailed Fox? "the Realm Lord was surprised.
Zhuo Yue replied: "Not yet, it's constantly changing. I've already gotten very close to the target, basically confirming that it's hiding in China's Shanghai, and locked onto a workshop. However, I've used several methods to lure it out, but none of them managed to lure it out. In the end, not too long ago, the Southeast Asian pirates were completely wiped out, and the method of their deaths was suspected to be the Nine-tailed Fox's doing. This was a huge blow to me, and I had to escape to Southeast Asia. It can take human form, which is quite troublesome for me! "
The Realm Lord asked: "With your authority, you should be able to use the Prophet's Diary, right?"
Zhuo Yue replied: "I've already used it …"
"Ah? Then why can't you find it? "
Zhuo Yue narrowed her eyes: "The Prophet's Diary indicates that the target doesn't exist …"
"Then … doesn't that mean that the target has already been destroyed?" the Realm Lord doubtfully asked.
"Normally, that would be the case, but why would it be destroyed? Do you know? The Flood Dragon that broke into the Lost Island was also shown to not exist … "Zhuo Yue continued:" It's very strange … Half a month after the Prophet's Diary indicated that it didn't exist, the Southeast Asian pirates that were suspected to be the Nine-tailed Fox's doing were wiped out. If the pirates were wiped out by the Nine-tailed Fox, this means that there are some terrifying possibilities … "
The Realm Lord asked: "What possibilities?"
Zhuo Yue shook her head: "I don't know … but at least we can leave Earth at will, or we can block the Prophet's Diary or something like that."
…
At noon in Nagasaki, Lan Mu arrived. It was late at night in Washington.
Because Japan was not yet under the influence of the Blood Breeds, Lan Mu went there alone, without bringing any Blood Breeds with him.
Now was the interval period, and he could switch forms, so it was easier for him to move alone.
"What a large amount of abnormal radiation, it has already covered the entirety of Nagasaki. Even my mental power is aching when I release it, not to mention the Treasure Seeking Mouse, its treasure hunting instinct has been severely affected … Right, as the only city in the world that was bombed by a nuclear bomb, the radiation is still affecting this place even now."
"I can use my mental power to cover an area of 5 km, I'll stand in Motian Park and use this as the center to monitor the situation. As soon as he starts killing people and uses the anomaly again, I should be able to see the abnormality."
"But I'm afraid that the anomaly's usage will be very normal and inconspicuous … it's possible that he can use the anomaly to kill people right in front of me without me noticing … and there's also the possibility that he's not even within 5 km of this park, since my mental power can't cover an entire city."
Lan Mu felt that the other party was quite troublesome, but he had no choice but to try.
"Under what circumstances would he kill people?"
"He hates America!"
Lan Mu's thoughts quickly turned, thinking that if an American publicly declared that they wanted to suppress Japan, he would definitely become angry and kill them in a fit of rage.
After all, the new President only declared that he would do everything he could to fight for the interests of the American people before he was killed by the other party. As long as someone said something even more extreme, they would be able to bait him into action.
In order to contain the hidden Death God, Lan Mu needed someone to sacrifice themselves and cooperate.
After calling Bai Ze, Lan Mu contacted him and told him his idea.
"Master, it's very simple. Two consecutive Presidents have suddenly died, and there's no suitable successor. The ongoing presidential election is becoming more and more intense, and several presidential candidates are frantically spending money to solicit votes and promote themselves. One of them is a candidate who wants to stop Asian countries from invading our country's economy, as well as the Chinese threat. There's also the need to stop the increasingly dangerous Japan, claiming that Japan is the most dangerous ally in history … Isn't he a ready-made candidate? "Bai Ze said.
Lan Mu asked: "One of the presidential candidates? Will the Death God take the bait? "
"You'll know once you try, Master. It's basically impossible for this candidate to be elected president. He's just a supporting role in the election, and because there are fewer and fewer people investing in him recently, he's also facing financial problems. We just need to send a vampire corporation to invest in him, and tens of millions of dollars will be enough to make him work for us. When the time comes, let him give public speeches everywhere and remind him to be more intense. He'll definitely listen to the investor's request. Anyway, he was originally advocating to suppress Japan. "Bai Ze laughed.
"Hmm …" Lan Mu thought about it for a while and agreed: "Let's give it a try!"
Lan Mu knew that if the Death God took the bait, then this so-called candidate would definitely die.
However, both Presidents were dead, so one more candidate wouldn't make a difference.
Lan Mu sat silently on a bench in Nagasaki's Mota Park, plugged in his phone and put it on his ear, waiting quietly.
Bai Ze was setting up 'bait' and reporting to Lan Mu at any time.
Everything was ready. Whether or not they could catch the Death God depended on whether or not Lan Mu could sense it.
