Bagley coughed and said, "There’s no other way, so please bear with it."
Su Mo wasn’t saying much either. Regardless, when he was convicted and thrown into prison, Xia Weiya was a big help, and he hadn’t repaid that favor yet.
So, he walked into the house.
In the living room, a rather good-looking blonde beauty was curled up on the sofa, shivering, while two female officers were giving her psychological counseling.
If he’s not mistaken, that should be the eyewitness.
Su Mo then walked toward the bathroom, where the entire outer wall had been dismantled, and the toilet and other things had been moved aside.
A group of NCOs were using portable equipnt to adjust the micro nanotechnology chanical spider detectors. Each chanical spider detector extended a very thin fiber optic cable from its rear end, connected to the portable equipnt.
Once they confird there were no issues, they deployed the nanotechnology chanical spiders.
Xia Weiya stood there with a serious expression, watching quietly.
"Officer Xia Weiya."
Su Mo saluted Xia Weiya.
"Hmm, you’re here. Help out with the investigation."
Xia Weiya’s expression was very solemn, indicating that the matter seed to be quite serious.
"Alright."
Su Mo nodded in agreent.
He silently said to the Fake Owner Swallower, "Can you help scan the bottom and see if there are any monsters?"
Not long after, the Fake Owner Swallower said to Su Mo, "No monsters or abnormalities detected. Additionally, when the Radiant City was constructed, the base structure mixed in a considerable amount of barrier stone, which restricts my scanning."
After hearing this, Su Mo also felt a bit of a headache. Now, they could only see how the nanotechnology chanical spiders perford, hoping for any discovery.
"Lady Xia Weiya, the nanotechnology chanical spider detectors have already entered the area main pipeline by following the conduit from the sewer pipe. They are now searching both sides."
The officer in charge of the survey watched the transmitted images and explained.
Su Mo ca closer to take a look and discovered that Star Ring City’s equipnt wasn’t just average; they could easily probe despite the strong interference from the base structure.
However, the current video images showed everything appeared completely normal.
All that could be seen along the way was sewage, with no trace of a monster.
Ti ticked by, second by second.
There was still no trace of any monster.
Xia Weiya turned to Su Mo and asked, "What do you think?"
Su Mo furrowed his brow, thought for a mont, and said, "I think we shouldn’t rush. Just patiently keep looking. Since the opponent left a trace, as long as we stay calm, we’ll definitely find sothing. Also, I have a rather immature idea."
"Go ahead."
"If I rember correctly, the two soldiers who disappeared before seed to belong to Area D, and the area they were guarding was the underground pipeline area. The monster discovered this ti also appeared in Area D’s underground pipeline area. I feel sothing might be wrong down below, and the previous poisoning incident seems more likely as a distraction to divert our attention."
Su Mo presented his thoughts to Xia Weiya.
"Hmm."
Xia Weiya nodded, feeling Su Mo’s analysis made a lot of sense, also sensing an impending storm.
Just as everyone was at a loss, suddenly, the portable equipnt’s screen vanished.
"What’s going on?"
Xia Weiya inquired.
"Unclear, the signal suddenly disappeared. The last image transmitted showed everything was normal with no abnormal phenona detected."
The operating officer promptly reported.
"Deploy the detectors again, focusing on the interrupted area."
Xia Weiya said while squinting.
"Yes!"
The subordinates on site quickly responded and began redeploying.
At this mont, Goli entered with Herbert, and along the way, all officers saluted her.
"Lady Goli."
Su Mo promptly stood up straight.
Goli walked up to Xia Weiya and asked, "How’s it going?"
"We haven’t located that monster yet, and the deployed equipnt faced so issues. We are currently confirming whether it’s a malfunction or an attack. Rest assured, we will definitely find that monster and eliminate any potential threats."
Xia Weiya quickly explained to Goli.
Herbert also spoke up at this point, "Xia Weiya, your actions are slightly slow. I recall you used to be very swift and decisive in handling matters."
Xia Weiya slightly frowned, not refuting Herbert’s words, but responded.
"No need for reminders, I know what to do."
Indeed, Xia Weiya’s recent stress wasn’t typical; she was responsible for investigating the poisoning and disappearance cases, all without much progress.
After all, the enemy isn’t just cunning!
"Alright, let’s not speak of it. The area structure beneath the Radiant City is even more complex than above. Even if there really is a monster hidden down there, it would be difficult to inspect. Now is the ti to unite and work together."
Goli interrupted their quarrel and urged them.
"Yes!"
Herbert and Xia Weiya responded simultaneously.
anwhile, Xia Weiya’s digital bracelet suddenly vibrated; she tapped it, and a holographic projection erged.
A Major saluted Xia Weiya and said, "Officer, soone reported seeing monster tentacles extended from the edge of the D3 area River Street drainage outlet."
Upon hearing the news, Xia Weiya and the others’ expressions transford drastically.
"Did you capture any footage?"
"Unfortunately, that area happens to be a blind spot."
The Major shook his head and replied.
Su Mo also felt slightly uneasy, was it a coincidence of the discovery, or has the quantity of monsters grown too vast to remain hidden?
He recalled a famous saying: When you see a cockroach in the sunlight, it ans there are already so many in the dark that there’s no room for them anymore.
Goli decisively issued a command.
"Deliver my order for a comprehensive investigation of the D area base, deploying detectors all-around."
"Yes!"
All officers present responded in unison.
Then Goli issued another order.
"Issue the order to lock down the entire D area and instruct soldiers to enter standby for battle mode."
"Yes!"
The Orderly Officer imdiately replied.
Goli then said to Xia Weiya, "Leave it to you here."
"Understood!"
Xia Weiya nodded.
Goli then led Herbert and others away, heading to the command center.
Turning to Su Mo, Xia Weiya said, "Go have a real look at the D3 Area River Street and see if you find anything."
"Alright."
After receiving his assignnt, Su Mo left promptly.
...
After a short while, Su Mo arrived at the River Street, finding it completely cordoned off.
IV-generation Pure chanical cha Night Guard units guarded every crucial location, and soldiers along the way saluted Su Mo.
On either side of the street were houses, with many windows open, heads poking out, each person’s face bearing a look of unease.
...
At this mont, Su Mo’s bracelet suddenly began to vibrate.
A series of ssages popped up.
Su Mo paused and glanced at it, slightly startled.
"Latest news: D3 area underground sensor equipnt labeled CG292112 is offline, which corresponds to giant ventilation pipe labeled SO84125. Pipe damage is not ruled out."
