"You, elder, said that I should protect myself well, and I definitely listen.
Now that the Great Demon is here, I can’t eat or sleep.
From yesterday till now, I’ve only eaten a bowl of rice, and haven’t slept for two days and a night.
I’m so scared I don’t dare close my eyes. As soon as I close them, I shake all over with fear, my chest is about to explode.
So now, I’ll go find him and beat him to death.
This is to protect myself.
What do you think, elder?
Isn’t there sothing wrong with that?"
After silently reciting in his heart, Wen Yan excused himself from Brother Ye citing other important matters.
After a day of contemplation, Wen Yan had already devised three sets of plans. He would decide which one to use later based on suitability.
But the first step is still to proceed steadily, acquiring intelligence.
Wen Yan took out his phone and checked the location of the girl nad Su Ye, and his brow instantly furrowed.
They were currently on a boat, heading upstream along the West River, almost reaching the location of Virtue City.
Moreover, Su Ye’s mother had already viewed a second-hand house next to Virtue City in Duanzhou, and the deposit had already been paid.
The reason Wen Yan was able to obtain this information was that the local agent, three renovation companies, and a small local business alliance selling bathroom fixtures, kitchen appliances, wood flooring, ho appliances, and curtains all knew the news.
After confirming the location, Wen Yan decided to return to Virtue City first.
Back in Virtue City, he continued to inquire about the Black Box for how the information collection was going.
The Black Box, using the surveillance photo he set as a starting point, began radiating outward in spatial scope, and started mobilizing footage from three months prior to the tistamp and after in the temporal scope.
This search was a massive project, too fragnted; the differences in picture resolution, angle issues, and a pile of other problems made it impossible to imdiately locate anything, even with sufficient authority.
Wen Yan looked at the two newly found photos. He manually judged that one was definitely not it; it was just soone’s expression montarily resembled it.
That kind of feeling was completely different, Wen Yan watched the original video segnt and denied it.
And the other photo was of a person sitting in a street-side dining hall eating, showing that insincere smile for less than a second before returning to normal.
When Wen Yan saw that expression, he recognized it right away—it was the Great Demon.
The expression was not the key; it was that bizarre divine essence it conveyed.
Wen Yan checked the tags; the person’s location in the photo was roughly only over four hundred ters in a straight line from Su Mu’s Ho, about six hundred ters following the walking path.
Confird the ti, from the tistamp on the photo to when Su Mu’s neighbor aunt stepped out of her house, it was twenty-three seconds.
Excluding the ti the aunt took to walk out of her house, it was about between thirteen to sixteen seconds.
In other words, the Great Demon likely used possession as a transfer thod, with an interdiate dium as a springboard, to span a straight line distance of four hundred ters, or if it’s using the human appearance range as the jump range, it could be over six hundred ters.
Considering this jumping, once connected into a line, the actual distance might be even farther than walking, possibly between seven to eight hundred ters.
Such a long distance, it only took that guy about thirteen to sixteen seconds.
Of course, this is just a preliminary speculation; what conditions are required for the Great Demon to possess, is still not determined.
Wen Yan opened the map, saw the marked location, and instructed the Black Box to prioritize tracking in the marked general direction.
Confirming that the Great Demon wasn’t flying around randomly, likely needed a person as a dium when moving, Wen Yan thought of a question.
How did the Great Demon get to the mountain village at that ti?
Added another task to the Black Box to confirm all those who possibly appeared within ten kiloters of the village around that approximate ti point that night.
This ti, the Black Box reacted swiftly, produced a list in just three seconds.
And additionally, smartly outlined the external overall situation of that night.
That night, the Scorching Sun Departnt completed experints, personnel and equipnt were withdrawn, all equipnt needed to be taken with them as they contained valuable data.
Also, there were insufficient personnel to keep stationed here; there were other matters elsewhere requiring manpower.
A large lake within Xiao Xiang County was also restless recently. Despite not being the rainy season, there was more rain than in the rainy season, and monitoring equipnt captured so unusual situations. That place required a lot of personnel and equipnt too.
Therefore, after ending matters here in Western Xiao Xiang County and completing data collection, people withdrew, lifting the blockade.
That day, a group of hikers headed towards the mountains. According to positioning, these people showed up within ten kiloters of the village periter.
One of them was particularly marked; this person, during the journey, was forcibly brought back for venturing away from the group at night.
The Black Box quickly posted several chat records and a focused target’s movent trajectory map.
The trajectory map showed that the person stayed in the camp that night with others but started a reversal after a period.
