Chapter 160: Consecutive Deaths of Martial Artists (2)
“Do you have any suggestions for this mission?”
After reading the mission introduction, Chen Yu said, “60 to 70 martial artists have died, so the danger should be very high. Everyone, study more and don’t fail miserably.”
Duan Ye took the document and read it from top to bottom. He said, “67 Level 1 martial artists have died, which proves that the other party’s desire to attack is very strong. Moreover, the other party will only attack the martial artists who are alone, so…”
Chen Yu asked, “So what?”
Duan Ye said, “So this should be a solo mission. Let’s cancel it.”
Dong!
Chen Yu flew up and kicked Duan Ye away. Then, he looked at Bahuang Yao and said, “Speak.”
Bahuang Yao pinched the corner of her shirt. “Will… will I get kicked if I say something wrong…”
Chen Yu said, “…No.”
Duan Ye patted the dust off his body and stood up. “Then why did you kick me?”
“Shut up.”
Duan Ye: “…”
Bahuang Yao:”…”
Chen Yu facepalmed. “I told him to shut up. Bahuang Yao, you speak your mind.”
“I don’t know how to say it…”
“It’s okay. Speak freely.”
Duan Ye: “Double standard dog…”
Clang!
Chen Yu pulled out his longsword.
Duan Ye decisively fell silent.
Holding the document, Bahuang Yao hesitated for a long time before saying in a low voice, “He… He was able to quietly kill dozens of martial artists. This proves that their strength should be far above Level 1.”
Chen Yu’s eyes lit up. “Yes, your analysis is not bad. Continue.”
“The strength of the three of us are all Level 1. We belong to… belong to the range of being attacked. One of us can be used as bait, and the other two can follow…”
Chen Yu interrupted, “One can be used as bait, and the other two can follow. If we follow at a close distance, it will be easy to be exposed, and all our efforts will be wasted. If the distance is too far, we might not be able to come in time to support.”
Hearing this, Bahuang Yao raised her head and thought for a while, “You are the strongest. For example… if you are the bait, Duan Ye and I can stay further away.”
“Tang City is very big, and this method is considered to be a stroke of luck, and it will take too long. We can’t stay on a mission for too long.”
“What if the three of us split up?” Duan Ye suggested, “The probability is three times higher.”
Chen Yu looked sideways. “Then the one who is most likely to die is you.”
Duan Ye: “…”
“Additionally, without explosive Qi, it’s impossible to tell what level a fighter is. How can we expose our battle strength reasonably? How can we make the murderer target us?”
“Erm…” Bahuang Yao raised her head and mumbled, “I don’t know…”
Chen Yu stretched out his hand and patted Bahuang Yao’s shoulder with a smile, “You’ve done well. Keep working hard. Don’t be so introverted.”
“Thank… Thank you…” Bahuang Yao blushed slightly.
On the side, Duan Ye poked Zhang Tie. “What’s with the strong smell of dog food?”
Zhang Tie replied, “Maybe there are dogs here…”
Duan Ye asked, “I feel that you’re scolding me again?”
“No.” Zhang Tie shook his head. “Not only you.”
…
After several discussions, Chen Yu still decided to go to Tang City first.
On the way, he could call Officer Wang to learn more information.
After leaving the school gate, everyone unanimously agreed to take the high-speed train.
Although it was less safe, it was fast and cheap.
In the future, they would have to travel all over the country to carry out missions. If they had to take express delivery by land every time, the cost would be too big for them to bear.
When they reached the station, Duan Ye bought four tickets, and everyone passed through the security check with guns, weapons, and all kinds of dangerous goods.
After sitting in the carriage and waiting for the high-speed train to start, Chen Yu took out his cell phone and called Officer Wang of Tang City.
Du–
Three seconds later, the call went through.
“Hello, I’m Officer Wang of the City Bureau.”
“Hello, I’m the Squad Leader of Class 2 of Beijing University. I’ve accepted your mission.”
“We have a lot of missions at Beijing University. Which one are you talking about?”
Chen Yu: “…The death of a group of Level 1 martial artists.”
“Oh! That’s the one.” On the other end of the phone, Officer Wang suddenly understood. “Then add me on WeChat. After I contact your school to verify your identity, we can chat while sending you some information. My WeChat has the same number as my phone number.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yu added the other party’s WeChat. Under the attention of Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao, they began to chat enthusiastically.
When the train arrived in Tang City, he had a rough understanding of the inside story of the case.
A total of 76 people were found dead.
All of them were Level 1 martial artists.
There were both men and women, but most of them were men, accounting for seven out of ten.
The most troublesome problem at present was that the first death scene of the victim could not be found. The body had also been specially treated. After soaking in high concentration of alkali solution, only some bones were left.
In the past six months, the police had almost thoroughly investigated the martial artists who lived in Tang City, but they did not find any suspects. The progress of the case had reached a stalemate very early on.
According to the analysis of the disappearance of foreign martial artists by the City Bureau, the number of martial artists who had died now might have exceeded a hundred. However, these bodies were hidden by the murderer and randomly thrown out, causing the police to be unable to find the pattern…
At present, the Tang City Municipal Government could only place their hopes on the students of Beijing University and Tsinghua University to lure out the murderer with Level 1 strength and resist the attack of the murderer, providing an opportunity for the police to capture them.
After all, an ordinary Level 1 martial artist might die as soon as they appeared…
Only the top students of top universities could rely on their talent to barely resist the attack of a Level 2 martial artist with Level 1 strength.
“This is the situation.” Looking at the scenery outside the window that gradually stopped, Chen Yu said seriously, “No one knows how big this murderer organization is or how wide its influence is. In order to maintain secrecy, we will not go to the Public Security Bureau to meet with any police officers. I suggest that even between us, we try our best to pretend not to know each other and communicate through WeChat.”
“Okay.” Duan Ye nodded.
“Okay.” Bahuang Yao nodded.
“After getting off the car, we will separate from each other.” Chen Yu pointed at himself. “Each of you make up a reason to come to Tang City. Put on a mask and hide your information. After that, I will ask Officer Wang to make a legal identity for us.”
“Okay.” ×2
“Attention, we are separating from each other to make a plan. If one of us is exposed, at least two others will be available. Therefore, don’t go to the dangerous place alone. Once you find something wrong, notify the others immediately.”
“Okay.”
Chen Yu finally looked at Zhang Tie. “Brother Tie, your side…”
Zhang Tie nodded, “I will hide in the dark. Pay attention to your safety. To be able to kill 100 fighters in such a large area and trick the police, it’s definitely not a common force.”
“Hmm, we will pay attention to it.”
Carrying the motherboard and the long sword, Chen Yu looked around, “Do you have anything else to say?”
Duan Ye shook his head. “No.”
Bahuang Yao pinched the corner of her shirt. “Ev… everyone needs to be careful…”
“Of course.” Chen Yu put on his mask and waved his hand. “Then Class 2’s first mission will officially begin.”
“Now, let’s split up…”
