Embers Ad Infinitum

Ugo's friends want to see us? Do you want to cooperate to capture the Nightmare Horse? With Xiao Chong here, who would dare... Long Yuehong could only think of this reason in his confusion.

Xiao Chong's boos left a lasting impression on him, both mentally and physically.

Jiang Baimian pondered for a moment and said:

“Okay, multiple friends, multiple paths.

"But it's up to us to decide when, where and how we meet."

Although Ugo didn't quite understand why friends and Lu could be connected, he still nodded:

"good."

Uh... This answer was a bit beyond Long Yuehong's expectations.

In his opinion, Boss Ugo was not qualified to agree directly on his friend's behalf. He was just a middleman who passed the news.

Ugo glanced at him and simply added:

"He knew you would ask for it."

"Then does he know which day, place and method we will choose to meet?" Shang Jianyao asked curiously.

"He is not one of those monks who claims to be able to predict people and events." Ugo was not choked at all and answered calmly.

Jiang Baimian stopped Shang Jianyao's next words, nodded gently and said:

"We will let you know when we confirm the time and place."

…………

"I don't know what boss Ugo's friends want us to do." As the vehicle started, Long Yuehong, who was sitting in the back seat, turned his head and glanced at the hotel.

"Who knows?" Jiang Baimian chuckled, "Anyway, just refuse if you have to. There is no need to worry."

She looked in the rearview mirror and added seriously:

“This also reminds us that we must make a certain cut with the previous people and things as soon as possible, otherwise, we will be found at no time.

"Think about it, if we don't check out and come back to stay in the hotel from time to time, will we have to worry about being betrayed after rejecting Ugo's friend?"

You refer specifically to Long Yuehong.

——The "Old Adjustment Team" has been busy processing the previous safe houses during this period and replacing them with new ones.

"Yes." Long Yuehong has always been timid in similar aspects and couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything else that needs to be paid attention to and dealt with in advance?"

Shang Jianyao, who was separated by a Gnawa from him, raised his hand and touched his chin:

"Three o'clock."

When Long Yuehong put on a listening posture, Shang Jianyao laughed:

"First, we can't let you say words like 'It's finally safe', 'Everything should be fine', 'You can go back to the company'..."

I've paid close attention... Long Yuehong roared in her heart and said "ha":

"If it's that clever, I'll say the opposite."

"Where are the two left?" Bai Chen, who was driving, automatically ignored the previous topic and asked Shang Jianyao.

Shang Jianyao's face gradually became serious:

"The portraits and descriptions of the characters given in the bounty mission all reflect the 'Circle of Blindness'. I'm afraid that the 'Pastor' of the 'Anti-Intellectual Cult' accidentally noticed us and confirmed that we are the murderers who hunted the real 'Priest'. He Jin is hunting us down.”

"That's really troublesome." Jiang Baimian nodded in approval.

"Shepherd" Bouillon is an awakened person who can read the memories of others on a large scale.

"Only the 'anti-intellectual religion' is not a big problem." Jiang Baimian further said, "We all have the ability to prevent similar things. What I am most worried about now is that in order to retaliate against us, the 'anti-intellectual religion' anonymously gives the 'Hand of Order' 'provide help."

"Hand of Order" is the name of the security agency of "Prime City".

"What will happen?" Long Yuehong asked eagerly.

Jiang Baimian said "hmm":

"For example, when Sheriff Wall was lured away by Xiaobai, would he think about why he was lured away afterwards?

"It is very likely that he will suspect that he has met us before, which is also true, but it was already many days ago when we met, and there was not much communication. It is very difficult for him to recall, and he needs enough opportunities, and with It's different when the 'anti-intellectual religion' intervenes."

Many awakened people in the "Anti-Intellectual Cult" are experts in playing with memory, and "Pastor" Bouillon is the leader among them.

"If Sheriff Wall remembers you, things will become quite troublesome." Gnawa said.

After knowing what Marcus had left behind, he had been a bit silent recently and only participated in discussions occasionally.

Long Yuehong was frightened for a while and said to comfort herself:

"I remember that the team leader and Hei were all disguised at the time."

Before meeting the company intelligence officer "Garibaldi", Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian did make some disguises.

"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded, "But I also said that with our height and race, we are still too conspicuous. Moreover, at that time, we did not prevent the 'anti-intellectual religion' from reviewing our memories. If we continue to pursue this step by step, sooner or later the 'Hand of Order' will be able to produce portraits that are close to our true appearance. When the time comes, we will know who we are by comparing them with the internal photos of the Hunter Guild."

Long Yuehong was shocked:

"Then we should stay away from the Hunter Guild!"

But in the past few days, the "Old Tune Team" has visited the Hunter Guild more than once.

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"Investigation is also a process and takes time. They are not that fast. Just pay attention later."

Long Yuehong was relieved and thought of a question:

"Aren't we going to the Hunter Guild to see if there are any high-reward missions to find Old Han?"

Shang Jianyao smiled:

"Ruiwen is the one who is looking at the mission. What does it have to do with Zhang Qubing?"

That's right, after we disguised ourselves, no one knew that we were from Qian Bai's team... When the "Hand of Order" investigation got to that point, they found out that Qian Bai's team had taken over the task of arresting Qian Bai's team. I don't know what their expressions would be like. ... Only then did Long Yuehong realize that she was confused when she was nervous.

He asked subconsciously:

"Who is Raven?"

"I just made up the Honghe name." Shang Jianyao asked enthusiastically, "Do you want to choose one? How about Rhett?"

Long Yuehong breathed out and decided to ignore this guy.

The next second, he remembered another thing and blurted out:

"Didn't you say you should pay attention to three points? I only talked about two points."

"Isn't the third point we just discussed?" Shang Jianyao was surprised.

"..." It took Long Yuehong more than ten seconds to figure out that Shang Jianyao's third point was also referring to Sheriff Wall.

…………

In the final city, in a certain mansion.

A figure received a clue of feedback from his subordinates.

The investigation into the death of the real "priest" has yielded further results.

After looking at the strange ornament woven from human hair on the left wrist of the portrait, the figure's hand holding the paper unconsciously tightened a little.

…………

"The Hand of Order," Physical Evidence Division.

Wall sat in front of a colleague and described the appearance of the two people in his memory based on the various eyebrow shapes, eye shapes, and nose shapes displayed on the computer.

After repeated feedback and adjustments, the "Hand of Order" member of the physical evidence department pointed to the portrait of a man and a woman on the computer screen and said:

"Is this what it looks like?"

Wall looked at it carefully for a few seconds and took a long breath:

"right.

"almost."

This is at least a lot more like the previous times.

Immediately afterwards, Wall added:

"They were probably disguised."

"We can combine this disguise to do a certain comparison and restoration." The "Hand of Order" member of the physical evidence department said that the existing technology can support this, but he also emphasized, "Don't be too optimistic about the results. That’s the big expectation.”

"How long will it take?" Wall asked.

The "Hand of Order" member who controlled the computer replied:

"Not sure, it depends."

He made no promises.

Wall nodded, stood up and said:

"Then I'll go trace another line first. The person who was injured at that time also seems to have a problem."

…………

In the evening, at the appointed time, the "old tune team" turned on the radio transceiver and waited for instructions from the company.

But until the end, they did not receive a telegram from the "Pangu creature".

"It's been too long, right?" Long Yuehong said with a frown.

Normally, the company would respond to reports or requests for instructions from the "old adjustment team" within two or three days, whether that night or as long as two or three days. But this time, the interval was really too long.

This made Long Yuehong couldn't help but wonder whether the telegram was not sent successfully at all and was hijacked by Wu Meng or a similar strong person.

Of course, this was just his casual thought. The "old tune team" had received the confirmation message at that time, and it was based on the original code. Outsiders had no idea at all, and it would be difficult to forge the content, unless the other party could summarize it through a limited number of telegrams. Find the rules and crack the password.

Jiang Baimian smiled thoughtfully:

"That means the response process is getting longer, which means the importance of the issue has increased."

Bai Chen asked as if he understood something:

"Board of Directors?"

Ah, our harvest this time is on the board of directors? Long Yuehong suddenly felt nervous.

This is an organization that can determine the life or death of every employee of "Pangu Biology".

Jiang Baimian smiled and nodded:

“It seems that the company also attaches great importance to it.

"It's just that the board of directors can't convene it in advance for us. We have to wait for a while."
