When the magic flower blooms

The Illusion of the Pot in the Scales unraveled many mysteries lingering on Naga, but still left some suspense.And the most important thing is what is Tianze's purpose now.

"Revenge on the Chimera" is perhaps the most obvious intention.

Instigating traitors in the Chimera, letting them carry zombie strains to sea auctions, deliberately spreading germs to cause tragedy... The mastermind behind all this should be Tian Ze.In this way, he can not only make enemies for the Chimera around the world, but also embezzle a lot of funds and research and development results on the ship without anyone noticing.

It is precisely because Tianze is the mastermind behind the scenes that he is aware of the crisis on board, and then warns Yu Benxin, He Tiansi and others not to allow them to consume contaminated food sources.

After that, Tianze probably took the initiative to inform Chimera of the traitor's whereabouts.That's why Chimera hastily negotiated with the organizer during the auction.

As for the bullet that caused the chaos in the venue and created the first zombie, it undoubtedly came from the Tianze side.

Not only that, Naga even further suspected that the cases of Lou Minqiu and others were also related to Tianze to a certain extent.

But everything is just as simple as taking revenge on Chimera?

Today, the main force of the Chimera has already withdrawn from China.If he just wanted revenge, why did Tianze stay in the country?Could it be because you want to stick to your heart?

I'm afraid it's not that simple.

Long before Tianze appeared, Yu Benxin had mentioned to Naga that he wanted to introduce him to a "person close to the royal family".If this person is indeed Tianze, does that mean that Tianze's next goal is related to the royal family?

But what kind of relationship is that?

The reasoning has reached a deadlock.

If you want to obtain further information, you obviously need to contact Tianze and Yu Benxin again.And this is the question that troubles Naga—what kind of mentality should he face these two "weird" fathers?

He figured he needed a moment to clear his thoughts and emotions thoroughly.

It's a pity that things backfired.

On the third day of her seclusion in the courtyard, Ming Ruoxing received a call from her elder brother.On the phone, Ming Ruochen asked Ming Ruoxing to put down all the work at hand and immediately take the earliest transportation to City B in an unusually serious and even nervous tone.

As soon as he heard "City B", Ming Ruoxing immediately guessed eight or nine. After all, in that big city, there were only two people who could make Ming Ruochen so nervous.

"Did something happen to my parents?!"

"Not yet, but it does happen."

As if realizing that he was bringing negative emotions to Ming Ruoxing, Ming Ruochen adjusted his tone a little.

"A group of unidentified people is carrying out an assassination operation against Asian political leaders. Many people have been attacked so far. Judging from the evidence available, Dad is likely to be their next target."

"Assassination? What's going on!"

It just so happened that Naga also came in from the outside at this time, Ming Ruoxing simply turned on the hands-free phone, turned to get the tablet at the same time, and immediately began to search for the air ticket to City B.

In the next few minutes, Ming Ruochen briefly described the somewhat unbelievable cause of the incident——

About a week ago, the judiciary of City B settled a long-standing unsolved case.The case can be traced back to four years ago, a turmoil that occurred abroad.

At that time, it was revealed on Russian social platforms that a financial oligarch bought land in the forests of Siberia to build a so-called "hunting ground". .

Along with this appalling news, there is also a "Hunter List", which lists in detail the people invited to hunt and the "prey list" they hunted.

Once the news is disclosed.Naturally, it caused a great sensation on the Internet.Netizens from all over the world began to search for their own celebrities from this English-language list.

It was found by many people.

One after another, six or seven countries including France, the United States, and the United Kingdom have all released lists of suspected participants from their own countries.Chinese netizens also quickly found a highly suspicious pinyin name. After some investigation, they locked on a domestic IT upstart "Li Shan".

Forced by the information on the Internet, the Russian police dispatched police forces to conduct a verification investigation on the rumored location.The authenticity of "The Hunting Ground" was finally confirmed.However, because of "a step late", a large amount of physical evidence has been destroyed, and there is almost no possibility of being prosecuted.

Afterwards, due to a series of reasons such as insufficient evidence, the case surrounding the hunting ground came to an impasse.And the "hunters" of various countries have fled back to their respective countries a long time ago.After the incident has been lively on the Internet for a while, it has returned to calm again-at least on the surface.

But the fact that ordinary people can't control it doesn't mean that the laws of the demihuman society can't punish them.

According to intelligence analysis, there is at least one demihuman among the hunted victims.According to the relevant case-handling treaty, once the evidence is sufficient, the case will be handed over to the Asian Judiciary for investigation and trial.

Thus, an investigation jointly initiated by the Asian governments of China, Russia and other countries began.

After years of persistent investigation, several suspects were finally locked.All the demihumans among them will be handed over to the demihuman judiciary for trial; and those involving ordinary humans will submit evidence and testimony to relevant departments through intermediate channels.

Despite many difficulties and obstacles encountered on the way, the demihuman "Li Shan" was finally convicted of murder and executed a week ago.

Since some demihumans are resistant to drugs and have the ability to feign death, executions are still carried out by shooting rather than drug injection.

For the sake of secrecy, the execution ground of the Asians is an extremely secret indoor building, hidden deep inside the mountain tunnel.But this also created some new problems.

After the demi-human prisoner is shot, the remaining consciousness will not dissipate, and there is about a [-]% probability that a pot will be produced.In order to prevent these pot heavens from disturbing the order of the execution, after each execution, in addition to performing an autopsy, the full-time forensic doctor is also responsible for introducing the remaining consciousness of the deceased into a shrine on the side of the execution ground and sealing it up.

This time, it was the shrine that went wrong.

On the other end of the phone, Ming Ruochen's voice became deeper and deeper.

"Two murders happened in succession last weekend. A judge of the Supreme Court and the chief prosecutor of the prosecutor's office were killed. In addition, an official of the Ministry of Justice and an employee of other departments were missing. According to the surveillance video, the murderer was a group of Armed and well-trained masked men. At first, there were not many clues, until the execution ground sent a report that all the bailiffs responsible for the execution of the Li Shan case were missing and their whereabouts were unknown.”

"Is it because of a leak in the shrine?"

Naga has already guessed the greatest possibility: "Those bailiffs are all affected by the pot sky in the shrine, just like ghosts possessed."

"It is said that the forensic doctor removed the seal of the shrine without authorization during the autopsy." Ming Ruochen revised his statement again, "And that person is not a real forensic doctor, he killed the doctor who was originally performing the task and forged the certificate. "

"So this is a premeditated action with political intentions." Ming Ruoxing quickly understood, "Is it retaliation or elimination of dissidents?"

"It's still hard to tell. But by recovering the communication and network data of these people, it can be confirmed that there are still many political leaders who have been included in the assassination plan. Among them is our father."

"Did he know?"

"I informed him as soon as I got the news, hoping that he could leave City B temporarily to avoid the limelight."

"How did he say?"

"He said that there are still important activities in the past few days, and it is too much to make a fuss if he escapes for such a trivial matter."

"Where's Mom?"

"She has nothing to do with the stubborn old man. But if Dad doesn't leave, she will definitely not leave either, and then both of them will be in danger."

"Where are the guards and bodyguards?"

"They've all been dispatched. But those bailiffs are all veterans with outstanding anti-reconnaissance capabilities, and some of them even came from snipers. And they're hiding in the dark now. I'm worried that Baimi will eventually get lost."

Speaking of this, Ming Ruochen paused, and finally said the main purpose of the call: "Xiaoxing, I hope you can go and have a look. It would be best if you can convince your parents to come back, if not..."

"If it doesn't work, I will stay with them and find out those assassins."

"...Your injury is just right, don't force it too much. I will come over to join you as soon as possible after I am done with the matter at hand. Be careful."

"clear."

After finishing the phone call with his brother, Ming Ruoxing concentrated on operating the tablet.He quickly selected the nearest flight, but paused while filling in his personal information.

"Buy two." Naga, who had been listening quietly from the sidelines, said, "You are not in good health, and I must accompany you, not to mention that it is such a dangerous thing."

However, Ming Ruoxing thought much more complicated: "If you follow me in City B, it means in the eyes of many people that you have already chosen my camp. Do you understand?"

"Do you still need to think about it?"

Naga smiled, "Eat salty fish to satisfy thirst, I can't control so much. Let others want to go if they want to. Besides, there is nothing wrong with your family."

"You are the salted fish."

Ming Ruoxing's face turned reddish.He hesitated to speak, but Naga had already made a choice on the computer for him.

"Hurry up, your father's business is important."

-

The Ming family has an old house in City B, where three generations have lived in the past 60 years. Twenty years ago, Ming's father became the patriarch of the Ming family, and he and his wife have settled here since then.

Four hours later, when Ming Ruoxing rushed to the old house, he saw two police cars parked at the door, and several policemen stood on the road to keep vigilant.

After showing his ID chip to verify his identity, he led Naga into the gate.

There were also some Secret Service agents standing in the front yard.They are installing surveillance and infrared sensors to ensure a better security system for the old home.

There were obviously fewer people in the middle courtyard, but a few men in formal attire, sunglasses and earphones could be seen standing in the courtyard solemnly on guard.

In their circle of protection, he is one of the focal points of this incident.
