Chapter 120: Prologue(1/2)
Ten time zones apart, China bj, warm autumn sun.
Gao Mi and Wan Boqian stood up at the same time. They looked out the window. The sound of the wind blowing ginkgo trees outside the window was as dense as the prelude to a storm, and people on the road started running.
This is Kassel's office in bj. Adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile, the location of the office is very remote.
Both of them are commissioners of the execution department. Wan Boqian's word spirit is [Bloodline Jieluo]. This kind of word spirit is harmless, but it is very sensitive to bloodlines and can find targets with high bloodline concentrations from a huge crowd.
The range is also quite huge, just like [Snake].
In a sense, she is a radar, specially used to detect hybrids or dragons.
It was not Angers who sent them, but the school board.
When the college fell into a "stagnant" state due to the investigation team, the school board of directors used its influence to intervene and the executive department sent people around the world to search for traces of the Dragon King.
"This is the third time this month. Although this city is in an earthquake zone, small-scale earthquakes have become a bit more frequent recently."
Gao Mi frowned and said, he always had some bad premonitions.
"Okay, okay, it's just a small earthquake. What's the big deal? If you don't worry, just write this in the mission report."
Wan Boqian sat back down, holding the tea cup, and said casually,
"Speaking of which, how long are we going to investigate? Patrolling along the subway line day after day is really boring."
"It's okay. I'm taking a walk for exercise. At least the salary is quite high." Gao Mi also sat back, opened his notebook, and really started to write a task report, "By the way, have you heard of BJ's subway legend?"
"Metro Legend?" The girl suddenly became interested.
"If you look carefully, you will find that on the old subway map, there is a number sign next to each station. The westernmost Pingguoyuan Station on Line 1 has an offset number of 103, and then 104, 105, 106... But
There is no 101 and 102, these two stations should be to the west of the apple orchard, but they are not shown on the map."
Gao Mi lowered his head and said, "Because there is a hidden subway there. Line 1 is the earliest subway in bj. It was opened to traffic on October 1, 1969, but it is no longer accessible when you reach Apple Orchard. Line 102 is Fushouling Station.
101 is Taojing Station, and when you reach the end, it is said to be the source of all subways, with spider web-like tracks."
"Wow, you are really addicted to studying the subway. I'm convinced, let's go." The girl stood up. Although it was autumn, she was still wearing a short skirt and stockings, showing off the best time in a girl's life.
"Where to go?" The boy looked up blankly. His mission report had just begun.
"Sightseeing!" the girl said confidently, "We haven't gone to the tourist attractions since we came to bj, right? Don't you want to take me for a walk?"
"Um, why don't you wait for me..." Gao Mi stopped speaking in time, and Wan Boqian narrowed her eyes. This was a dangerous signal.
He closed the notebook and said helplessly: "Let's go, I'll go shopping with you today."
Wan Boqian smiled and walked out the door holding his arm.
"By the way, do you remember that woman from a few days ago?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Actually... I had a telepathic connection with my speech spirit that day, but it wasn't very obvious. The other person must also be a mixed-blood species."
"Why didn't you say anything that day?"
"Hmph, that woman's legs are very long, right? I think your soul was about to be seduced by that woman!"
"How can it be……"
"So when exactly are you going to propose to me?"
"ah?!"
"Ah, you big-headed ghost! Gao Mi, don't you want to marry me?" The girl narrowed her eyes again.
"No! Absolutely not! I...I..." The boy was a little incoherent.
The girl sighed. This idiot is really hopeless. How could she fall in love with such an idiot?
She was kicking the stones on the roadside with her hands behind her back, feeling a little distracted.
Autumn is indeed the best season for bj, the sky looks high and clear, and the streets quickly returned to calm after the small earthquake.
There was something she kept deep in her heart but didn't tell Gao Mi.
A few days ago, that strange woman whispered something in her ear, and then disappeared, as if she appeared in front of her specifically just for these words.
It was precisely because of these words that Wan Boqian finally made up his mind to have a "showdown" with the boy around him.
That saying is - if you like someone, go find him, don't wait around.
Wan Boqian raised her head, and the bird with spread wings flew low through the trees and disappeared into the park next to it.
For some reason, she always felt that this sentence was very familiar, as if it came from her own mouth and she had said it somewhere before...
She turned around, her cheeks flushed and said, "You, marry me this year."
Gao Mi was stunned for a moment, swallowed hard, and nodded vigorously.
…
…
Rome, Italy.
Frost threw the finished report on the table and sighed: "I didn't expect to be able to dismiss Angers as principal at once, but if we can find problems in Chu Zihang, Angers can still be shaken to some extent.
The rule of the Beowulf family. But why did the Beowulf family choose to support Chu Zihang? Could it be that Angers guy asked Beowulf to come forward? It doesn’t make sense.”
"It was my mistake." Patsy stood in front of the table respectfully.
"It has nothing to do with you. You have tried your best and done a good job." Frost encouraged gently, "Have you figured out the identity of the person in the ice cellar that night?"
"No, we can't find any useful clues."
"Well. Take a look at this document first."
Frost groaned and handed Patsy a document.
Patsy opened the document bag, and inside was a map, a map of China. The entire map was covered with dense markings.
"This is..." he hesitated.
"China's seismic data map. Since the tenured professors deduced that the one who awakened this time was the 'King of the Earth and Mountains', we began to collect seismic data around the world. The awakening of the four monarchs is easier than the awakening of ordinary dragons.
It has been observed that because their power is too strong, they will bring disaster-like events."
"In ancient books, the awakening of the 'King of Earth and Mountains' is often accompanied by earth changes!"
"The ground is shaking all the time, and small earthquakes occur every day. But if the frequency and intensity in a certain area suddenly increase, then something special must be happening in the earth's crust, such as the awakening of a certain monarch!"
Frost paused, "What you have in your hand is China's recent earthquake data map."
"Do you suspect that the 'King of the Earth and Mountains' is in China?"
"It's not that I doubt it, but there are countless evidences pointing to China. Do you know the reason why the college promotes Chinese education?"
"You know a little bit, do you believe this?"
"This policy was promoted by the Night Watchman, who rarely interfered with matters. This was one of the few times in his career as vice-chancellor that he directly intervened in college affairs. The last time was traced back to when his son Manstein just joined the job. At that time, he
I sent an email to the school board of directors, saying that the young teacher Manstein is really outstanding. Why should we refuse such an outstanding young man to become an associate professor?"
"...It does look like that person's style."
"Haha, Angers' biggest supporter in the academy is not Lisa, but this old guy."
Frost shook his head and said, "I don't like that old guy, but I know that as the secret party's mentor, he will not do unnecessary things. If he said that the Dragon King will awaken in China, then there is a high probability that it is true.
The awakening of the Lord of Bronze and Fire has confirmed this."
"These markers in your hands are all seismic records. After a lot of calculations, we finally focused on this city."
Frost clicked on the red five star in the center of the map.
"Bj, that is the place where the Chinese people call it 'Dragon Spirit'. The last dynasty of China inherited the capital from the enemy after entering the customs. Because it is located next to Yanshan Mountain, which is considered to be an ancient dragon.
The remains extended eastward out of Shanhaiguan, beyond which was the hometown of the Manchus. The Manchus followed the dragon into the pass, and finally saw the dense 'dragon energy' on the top of the city."
"Of course, these claims are considered absurd 'Kanyu' doctrines, but history always evolves into legends."
Patsy hesitated: "Didn't you suspect that the Dragon King might be in the hometown of Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei?"
Frost said solemnly: "Remember Norton and Constantine? There is more than one Dragon King on the throne. We suspect that the experience of the King of Earth and Mountain is similar to that of Bronze and Fire, as if one is wandering in the world, and the other is still alive.
Not fully awake yet!”
"Have we started the operation in BJ?" Patsy asked.
"No, not yet. I'm not sure yet. Besides, I need to make a call." Frost rubbed his eyebrows and said tiredly, "I hope you can pay more attention to the Hunter website recently. Norton used to be a member of this website.
As a member, I always feel that this website will continue to cause trouble."
"As commanded."
"Go down."
After Patsy left the room, Frost pressed the red button on the landline. After the automatic dial tone, a happy male voice came from the phone.
"Hi, brother! What happened? I haven't heard your voice for a long time."
What followed was a woman's coquettish laughter and deafening music, which sounded like a happy dance in a bar.
To be continued...
