Chapter 36 Investigating the Mastermind
Xu Han thought.
A magic circle appeared in front of him.
The light faded.
The little cub who was still biting pieces of meat appeared in front of him.
It was fighting hard against the lump of meat.
However, this piece of meat is almost as big as its body, and it has no way to eat it.
"Let's go, I'll take you to level up. I'll level up on the way. It's almost level 20."
After that, he carried the little boy and walked towards Mulin Town.
…
In a villa in Donghai City.
There was a black bird standing on the table in front of the middle-aged man.
The bird's eyes are as clear as rubies.
Its beak stretches out like a dagger and is as long as a human forearm.
The middle-aged man took out a fair-skinned finger and handed it to the bird.
The bird tilted its head and glanced.
The beak opened and he swallowed it in one bite.
It flapped its wings and made a sound like a crow.
"delicious……"
A loving smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face.
It's like looking at your own child.
Dong dong dong...
There was a knock on the study door.
"come in."
The middle-aged man spoke.
The room door opens.
A man in black walked in.
He was holding a bag in his hand.
He placed the bag on the ground and said respectfully: "Sir, the body has been brought back."
The middle-aged man frowned slightly and waved his hand casually, signaling for the other party to open it.
The man in black opened the bag and revealed two bodies inside.
"Where's their equipment?"
The middle-aged man said calmly.
His eyes glanced at the man in black.
The man in black lowered his head and said respectfully.
"This is what they looked like when I found them. This subordinate is absolutely not lying. Please be aware of this!"
The middle-aged man turned his head to look at his love bird and teased its beak with his hand.
The bird kept pecking at his fingers.
The skin on his fingers was torn, but the middle-aged man's expression remained normal.
"What about the cub of the Earth Splitting Tiger King?"
The man in black said respectfully: "Lord Qi! My subordinates only found the iron cage, but the cage has been violently broken open."
"But there are no claw marks on it, so it can be inferred that it was not caused by a strange beast!"
The middle-aged man nodded slightly and touched the bird's head lovingly.
"Everything went according to plan."
"With those strange beasts, we can definitely break through the East China Sea and plunge it into chaos."
"But now...it has been destroyed..."
"If you dare to sabotage my plan of the Church of the Abyss, you must find this person! I must kill him with my own hands!"
"yes!"
The man in black nodded respectfully.
…
And at this time.
In the city lord's mansion.
All the top executives of Donghai City gathered here.
Zheng Zucai also returned to the city because the strange beasts had retreated.
Li Zhentian said: "Have you investigated it? Who saved Donghai City?"
Several investigators shook their heads: "There is no news yet."
Li Zhentian shook his head helplessly: "Hurry up and check again!"
"We must find this hero!"
"Also, check the identities of the two men in black robes!"
"If you dare to lure strange beasts to our Donghai City, you must find the mastermind behind it!"
Chen Gang said: "This matter must be done by a high-ranking person in our city."
His eyes slowly swept over the people present: "The people who can come into contact with the materials of the forbidden iron cage are definitely not ordinary people."
Others nodded in agreement.
"Also, investigate everyone who leaves the city."
"Although according to the current investigation, only those two people are suspected of committing crimes, it does not mean that there is no risk of others working together."
"So I propose that everyone who comes back from outside the city be arrested and interrogated one by one!"
"After the interrogation, it will be released only if there is no suspicion."
Dai Guoqiang, director of the Investigation Department, frowned and said, "Old Chen, isn't this approach too extreme?"
“Let’s not even talk about how much work it is to lock up so many people.”
"Just imprisoning so many people will cause a sensation. If the higher-ups are blamed, things will be huge!"
Chen Gang said solemnly: "You can't be careful!"
"This time we will root out the mastermind no matter what!"
"This time they dare to use strange beasts to attack the city. They might cause another trouble next time."
"No one can guarantee that this must be done for the safety of Donghai City!"
Li Zhentian frowned and said slowly: "Although Lao Chen's approach is radical, it is not unreasonable."
"Well, let me apply to the Zhenhai General Office first and see what they want."
Li Zhentian reported the news to Zhenhai General Office.
Soon, news from the Zhenhai General Office came back.
Only two words.
agree.
Li Zhentian said: "Let's do it this way, according to the words of Army Chief Chen."
…
The east gate of the city is blocked.
All those who returned were taken to the Bureau of Investigation for investigation and questioning.
Almost all the news from three generations of ancestors were read over.
Even down to the details of what time to go to the toilet every day, what time to eat, and remember every word you said.
For a time, many people complained.
But there is no way.
What's at stake is, after all.
…
at this time.
Xu Han is killing monsters outside Mulin Town.
Watching the sky gradually darken.
He is also ready to go home.
There are several more kinds of exotic animal meat in the space ring.
Maybe after eating these meats, you can directly unlock the next illustrated book reward.
He looked at the little cub lying next to him, dozing off.
After an afternoon of upgrades.
The cub has reached level 5.
The body size has also grown a bit.
About the size of an adult cat.
The attributes have also been greatly improved.
[Name: Ground tiger cub]

【Strength: 140】

Just these level 5 attributes.
It has surpassed most professionals.
Even some first-level professionals are no match for it.
Xu Han was very satisfied and took the little guy back to his pet space and headed straight for Donghai City.
soon.
He rushed back to Donghai City.
Seeing the city guards guarding the door, he was stunned for a moment and muttered in his heart.
"Didn't the alien beasts recede? Why are you still so strict?"
