Sitting outside the golden elevator, Shang Jianyao calmly replied:

"It can solve you as well."

"There won't be a single omission."

Shang Jianyao continued to gaze at the red trace that was rolling around, and suddenly exclaimed:

"DiMarco's remaining power is useless."

"That's because he's already dead, and the master of the 'Ring of Blindness' is still alive." Shang Jianyao at the entrance of the golden elevator naturally understood what "the other party" was saying.

He originally wanted the remaining power of the "Destiny Bead" and the aura within the "Ring of Blindness" to check and balance each other. As a result, the cyan "bead" was directly squeezed to the side, wasting some energy in vain, so much so that it could barely be used once more.

Shang Jianyao sighed:

"I thought becoming a ghost would make you fiercer."

As he spoke, he stood up and strolled around the golden elevator, as if studying the situation in other parts of the island.

"Aren't you considering how to eliminate this hidden danger?" Shang Jianyao at the entrance of the golden elevator asked amusedly.

Shang Jianyao pondered and said:

"Let's keep it for now. Maybe the other person is willing to make friends and help us deal with you."

"Don't you understand? If you don't solve the problems in your heart, you will never be able to truly defeat me, at most, you'll just perish together." Shang Jianyao at the entrance of the golden elevator said calmly, "I know you'll definitely say, 'So be it if I die, there will be successors,' but that way, you'll never understand why Dad never came back."

Shang Jianyao thought seriously:

"That's true."

He appeared very calm, after all, it was another version of himself.

...

Red Wolf District, 19 Rosta Street, a building with its own courtyard.

This is the headquarters of the "Hand of Order," the law enforcement agency of the "First City."

Wall, as large as a wall, entered the meeting room with a pen and paper.

At a glance, he saw several acquaintances:

Constance, the assistant to the Order Officer of the Golden Apple District, a slender and handsome middle-aged gentleman; Theodore, another assistant to the Order Officer of the Golden Apple District, whose relationship with Wall was not good...

Although the Colosseum incident occurred in the Red Wolf District, it involved nobles, and the higher-ups attached great importance to it, so D’liane, the Order Officer of the Golden Apple District, also sent several capable assistants to help.

Presiding over this meeting was Travis, the Order Officer of the Red Wolf District, Wall's immediate superior.

He was a noble, wearing a well-tailored suit, with black hair and dark eyes, and a deep profile, exuding the aura of years of experience.

Travis glanced around and, seeing that everyone had arrived, nodded slightly and said:

"I don't need to repeat the details of this case, do I?"

"No need." Wall tapped the paper with his capped pen.

"I don't think I need to emphasize the importance either, this was directly handed over to our 'Hand of Order' by the Senate." Travis said, and directly named him, "Wall, what are your thoughts?"

Wall looked down at the keywords recorded on the paper and said steadily:

"The most puzzling thing to me is, what exactly did those people do?

"No one seems to have been injured at the scene, and no one has lost any important items."

"They stole very important intelligence." Travis replied with a rather good attitude, "From Marcus. As for the rest, it's not something you can know, and even I'm not too clear about it."

Wall is the son-in-law of Gaius, a newly appointed senator.

Marcus? Constance, Theodore, Wall, and others repeated the name.

They exchanged glances, and varying degrees of doubt appeared in each other's expressions.

Although Marcus came from a prominent family, he was also constrained by his background. He could neither enter politics nor join the army, like a rare animal kept in captivity, seemingly respected but with little actual status.

What very important intelligence could such a person possess?

As thoughts churned, Theodore realized that he was actually staring at Wall, and quickly shifted his gaze by turning his neck.

He made no attempt to hide his disgust and disdain.

Wall raised another question:

"Officer, is there any intelligence you can provide about the three suspects?

"I'm referring to their strength."

Because there seemed to have been no battle in this incident, relevant information was almost non-existent, which was very important to the Order Officer assistants and peacekeepers running around on the front lines, and determined the lives of everyone present.

Travis looked at his assistant and asked him to answer.

His assistant picked up a document and read it verbatim:

"At least one of the three targets is an Awakened, belonging to a more extreme type who are accustomed to adventure and do not value their own lives. They possess one or more Extraordinary Items...

"The cooperation of the three of them successfully deceived an Awakened at the 'Mind Corridor' level..."

Theodore, Constance, Wall, and others were originally relatively calm, but when they heard the latter sentence, they were inevitably moved.

This incident actually involved an Awakened at the "Mind Corridor" level!

And those three targets stole important intelligence from under the nose of such a powerful person!

No wonder the Senate attached so much importance to it... Wall nodded almost imperceptibly:

"I don't have any questions for the time being. The specific ideas are still just relatively vague."

"Are you planning to get inspiration from other people's suggestions?" Theodore, with black hair and brown eyes and an ordinary appearance, sneered.

He paused, thinking as he spoke:

"The current investigation directions are as follows: First, use the images left by the three targets for a large-scale screening, but they have obviously disguised themselves, and unless we happen to find someone who knows them, it will be difficult to gain anything; Second, start with the vehicles they used; Third, ask Marcus if any strangers have tried to get close to him..."

As soon as Theodore finished speaking, a peacekeeper from the Red Wolf District added:

"I have already investigated the target's vehicle. It came from a rental car company. The renter left a false name and also disguised themselves."

"Damn it, can't those guys carefully verify the identity of the renter?" Another assistant to the Order Officer of the Red Wolf District, Travis, complained.

No one responded to him.

All the members of the "Hand of Order" present knew that this was impossible to achieve given the administrative capabilities of the "First City" and the chaotic environment of the Greylands.

Then, one direction after another was proposed, either rejected on the spot or entered the investigation process, but there was still no progress that made these veterans' eyes light up.

Finally, Wall spoke again:

"I have two things to mention:

"First, I actually encountered those three targets at the time, but a shooting incident happened to attract my attention, preventing me from making effective observations..."

He took the opportunity to mention his encounter at the Colosseum when he went to borrow a charging station, and concluded:

"At the time, I didn't have any doubts, but now, I think the two cases can be combined. The shooting should have been an effort by the targets' companions to cover their departure.

"From the trajectory of the bullets, we can deduce where the targets' companions were shooting from, and then look for witnesses."

Theodore immediately laughed:

"The targets' companions must have also disguised themselves."

"Yes, but no clue can be easily let go. No one can always maintain perfection and not make mistakes, and mistakes may be hidden in those seemingly worthless clues." Wall responded without any politeness.

Constance nodded in agreement:

"At least we now know that the target team is likely to have more than three people.

"This is very important."

Wall looked around, his expression gradually becoming serious:

"That's the first thing.

"Second, I'm wondering, besides me, there were only two security personnel at the time. What was the shooting incident covering up?"

"Shooting incidents in other districts will not have any impact on the security personnel of the Supreme Colosseum, it will only make them more vigilant." Constance analyzed in cooperation.

Wall nodded:

"Therefore, I initially judged that the shooting incident was to lure me away.

"But why lure me away? I just went to the security personnel to ask about the cause of the power outage and see if I should wait."

Hearing this, the Order Officer assistants and peacekeepers present fell silent, with solemn expressions.

With their experience, it was not difficult to think of possible reasons.

"I suspect that I have seen those three targets, before they were disguised. They were worried about being recognized by me, so they had their companions in the distance create a shooting incident to lure me away." Wall gave his answer.

Theodore no longer targeted him, and frowned, saying:

"But you just said that you don't recognize the three people in the surveillance video, and you didn't feel familiar because of it."

Wall thought and said:

"This can be explained:

"I may have only seen them once or twice, had a few conversations, and hardly left any impression."

"Then how should we investigate?" Theodore asked.

At this time, Travis, the Order Officer of the Red Wolf District who was presiding over the meeting, said in a deep voice:

"Visit the Crystal Consciousness Church, ask them to provide assistance, and allow Wall to browse his memories."

...

Hugo Inn, the rested "Old Task Force" returned to the lobby, ready to check out.

After doing such a big thing, they had to gradually replace a batch of safe houses and make a certain "cut" from the original ones.

Watching Hugo go through the check-out procedures, Shang Jianyao suddenly asked:

"Is there any way to find a person? Only knowing their name, appearance, and approximate residential area?"

"Post a task to relic hunters." Hugo looked up, "Or find those monks who claim to be able to foresee people and things."

Monks... Jiang BaiMian muttered silently, Shang Jianyao "Oh, oh" twice, and then said:

"We encountered a Nightmare Horse in the North Shore Mountains, and it is pursuing that white wolf."

At that moment, Hugo, who never had any expression, seemed a little disbelieving in his ears.

He quickly returned to normal and looked at everyone in the "Old Task Force" and said:

"Someone wants to see you."

Who? Long Yuehong subconsciously wanted to ask.

Jiang BaiMian pondered and opened his mouth and said:

"Your friend?"

"Sort of." Hugo gave an answer.
