"We... can’t find it."
As soon as these words ca out, apart from a few of the bureau chiefs, everyone’s face instantly fell.
Clearly, this matter has already exceeded the scope of what ordinary people can handle and clearly requires the intervention of their Supernatural Bureau.
However, the awkward thing is, although their bureau was indeed established for such situations, it lacks substance!
Currently, in Dragon Country, there are only a handful of known and controllable Abnormal People, most of whom have been drafted by Jincheng and Modu.
They were able to keep half-skilled Ye Yunqing only because his Daoist Temple lineage is local, and with the previous zombie incident causing such a commotion, the headquarters barely agreed to it.
The bureau sent Ye Yunqing along with an action team to the site, but they found nothing unusual.
This is the most awkward aspect of the Supernatural Bureau. When faced with a clear supernatural incident, everyone is just an ordinary person, so how should they solve it?
This isn’t an unmarked graveyard, they can’t just relocate the town’s residents and randomly fire a few missiles, right?
Dragon Country has given the Supernatural Bureau such great privileges, providing manpower and funding, yet when facing this situation, at this stage, they don’t have any solution.
Because of this, everyone’s expression grew increasingly grim.
"I’ll go take a look, maybe I’ll find sothing." Li Ziwei said, furrowing his brows.
"What, you don’t believe ?" The previous team captain turned around and said coldly,
"If it doesn’t work, should we report to the headquarters?"
"It’s possible, but the headquarters might not have anyone good to send right now, anyway."
For a mont, everyone expressed their views but couldn’t reach a decision.
The chief, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, finally couldn’t hold back. He opened his eyes, frowned slightly, and tapped on the table: "Alright, alright! What’s there to argue about? We’re just a newly established branch. It’s not embarrassing to report to a higher authority if we’re not capable enough.
Today, I called you here to remind you that tis are different. Your abilities, even in novels, would be one in a hundred. Make sure you study the scriptures we’ve issued you thoroughly when you go back. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
Hearing the uniform response, the chief nodded in satisfaction, looked around, and made a decision: "It’s settled then. I will now go to the headquarters to file a report."
...
The old man recounted the events in Enjiang Town from beginning to end. As Ning An listened, his face grew heavier, and Lin Yanke also leaned forward, maintaining this posture, evidently very interested as well.
"No matter what ans were used, you couldn’t find the reason?" Ning An pondered and asked.
"Scientific ans couldn’t find anything. We installed caras in every corner of the town, and parts of questionable spots were monitored by satellite, yet it still had no effect." The old man spread his hands, speaking helplessly.
"What about the town’s residents? They might know sothing."
"We did a sweep as well. They said this had never happened before, completely inconsistent with the reaction of colleagues who visited the site. No one in town got into trouble, and they’re unwilling to move away." The old man candidly shared everything he knew.
"If it were , I wouldn’t want to move if there were a mine at my doorstep either."
After serious consideration, Ning An agreed and nodded, "Alright, I’ll go check it out with my junior sister."
After all, they represented Dragon Country, plus they had already made a significant promise. To refuse now indeed seed unreasonable.
Returning again to the airport, a special plane had long been waiting, its propellers whirring, soon reaching a place not far from Enjiang Town.
Enjiang Town is small, with not many inhabitants. The town mainly relies on tourism, and with this incident, it appeared even more desolate.
Brother Ning An and his sister, along with the entourage, entered the town and surveyed the surroundings. The large street was almost devoid of pedestrians, and even those occasionally encountered were hurrying along.
The group first arrived at the initial incident site, but finding nothing, they proceeded to the breakfast shop owned by Xiaohu.
After the police were called two days ago, the police didn’t find any expired products in his back kitchen, rely giving a verbal warning and saying that professional personnel would arrive in a few days before letting him go.
However, the town’s residents believed it was his family’s food safety that caused the trouble, and the police didn’t find anything because he hid it too well. It worried him so much that his hair was turning white.
Seeing the group, he was overjoyed: "Oh finally, my police comrades, I missed you."
Leading the group was the sa team leader, Zhang Xingmin, who had inspected before.
In the back, he kept a stern face and said in a tough voice, "These are our professional personnel. If you have anything to say, tell them."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Though Xiaohu was surprised that the professionals were so young, he didn’t say anything and instead began to complain tearfully about his grievances: "Leader, you don’t know how hard it’s been for these days. Watching my business go down and losing family inco, it’s made think of jumping into the river."
"Stick to the point!"
Standing behind Ning An, Zhang Xingmin gritted his teeth, wishing he could just kick him.
Ning An, however, did not find it troubleso. He smiled and consoled, "Old brother, we’re here to help you solve the problem. Before those girls fell unconscious, had anything similar happened in the town?"
"No!" Xiaohu answered categorically: "I grew up in this town, and nothing like this has ever happened. Leader, believe , my shop has been open for over ten years. Why would I suddenly ruin my own reputation..."
Dammit!
Zhang Xingmin cursed silently. It was hard enough getting the higher-ups to send a big shot over, and this guy was still focused only on his shop.
