Chapter 166: The Mystery of the Missing Corpses

The next morning, the sun rose as usual.

The entire Qingcheng was invested in intense aftermath work.

A team wearing white hazmat suits and fully armed stepped off the vehicle, each person's face filled with helplessness and disgust.

They were the staff responsible for corpse disposal this time, and many were temporarily conscripted.

Dealing with corpses was dirty, tiring, smelly, and even dangerous.

After all, some monster corpses, after a night of fermentation, had already formed giant views, and their bodies were full of various flammable and explosive gases. Once a corpse explosion occurred... that sour feeling would definitely be unforgettable for a lifetime.

Their work content was to classify the corpses, bring the human corpses back to the city to identify their identities and hand them over to their families, cut off the valuable materials from the monster corpses, and burn the rest to ashes to prevent the breeding of large amounts of bacteria and the generation of plague.

"Sigh... last time, just dealing with a hundred-meter-tall monster took a day and a night. After I got home, the stench of corpses on my body couldn't be washed off even after ten times with shower gel. This time, with so many corpses, I guess I'll be pickled and marinated."

A bearded middle-aged man sighed helplessly.

"Oh, Uncle, don't complain. Aren't we all contributing to Qingcheng? Cheer up!" a young boy next to him encouraged.

The bearded man looked at him strangely, also somewhat envious of his optimism.

"You haven't dealt with monster corpses before, have you?"

"No," the boy answered truthfully.

"A monster's intestines can easily fit a person, so there is a lot of digestive matter in their intestines. When you cut the monster's intestines... yue! Forget it, I won't say it. You'll see for yourself when the time comes," the bearded man couldn't help but shake his head.

"Oh, Senior! If you don't do it and I don't do it, then who will build the beautiful new You Daxia? Relax! Maybe those corpses will disappear by themselves?" the boy laughed.

"How is that possible? Do you really think there's a Conch Girl in the world?"

The bearded man couldn't help but shake his head, feeling somewhat admiring of the young man's optimism and whimsical ideas.

When they arrived at the city gate, the bearded man handed the boy a cigarette and lit one for himself.

"Smoke one, suppress the smell, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to stand the smell later."

"Thank you." The boy took the cigarette, and after smoking it, both put on their masks again.

At this time, the city gate slowly opened, and everyone gritted their teeth, doing psychological construction, and then strode out! Preparing to face the sea of blood and corpses outside Qingcheng!

But when they arrived outside the city, everyone was stunned.

There were no corpses outside Qingcheng; everywhere was full of birds and flowers, and one couldn't even smell a hint of fishy stench in the air.

The mountain of corpses seemed to have disappeared into thin air; one couldn't even see a residual limb or broken arm.

"Senior... it seems there really is a Conch Girl," the boy muttered to himself.

The bearded man was also stunned, his two hands constantly gesturing in the air.

"Where are the corpses? Where is that huge pile of corpses?"

"Where did they go?!"

That afternoon, Qingcheng established a special investigation team to start investigating the truth of the missing corpses.

And the lead investigator happened to be Huang Litian. When he learned that Guo Qin had appeared last night, Huang Litian was silent for a moment.

As an investigator, he remembered one thing: Guo Qin had been locked up directly opposite Ye Lin and was released at the same time as Ye Lin on the day Ye Lin was released.

It seems that this matter... is related to that Ye Lin again?

Seeing Huang Litian starting to ponder, Xu Xiu hurriedly asked.

"Master, do you have a clue?"

"No."

Huang Litian shook his head. This man who had been doing lie detection for a lifetime lied for the first time.

After the monster horde incident, Huang Litian saw through many things. Sometimes, the truth didn't seem so important. Whoever wants to investigate can go investigate.

In the end, this incident of the sudden disappearance of monster corpses became a cold case and was shelved.

Time is the best doctor.

The dead are gone, and the living go on.

Following a grand mourning ceremony, life in Qingcheng returned to its former peace.

Waking up in the morning, if there were ready-made neighbor children, they would cut two slices, boil a pack of instant noodles, shovel them into their mouths horizontally, eat them up, go to school, go to work, and go to the funeral.

That terrible monster tide seemed as if it had never happened, but if one observed carefully, one would still find that Qingcheng had a bit more of a dead, lifeless feeling.

Only when the teleportation array in the center of Qingcheng lit up did the vigorous youthful spirit reawaken the lifeless Qingcheng.

Because, the time for university freshmen to enroll had arrived!

Early this morning, parents brought their children to the square in front of the teleportation array to line up.

Once they went, it was estimated that they wouldn't be able to return until graduation, because the cost of activating the teleportation array was extremely expensive, not something ordinary families could afford.

Many parents had reluctance on their faces, but they wouldn't stop their children from rushing toward a better future.

Entering university, for all class-changers, was a chance to leap over the dragon gate.

Not only did universities have extremely deep research on every kind of class, but more importantly, every university controlled several exclusive realms.

Therefore, in this world, universities not only possessed extremely strong combat power but also possessed great power.

For a college student without a background, the best graduation destination was to successfully stay at the school.

Soon, the students in the square lined up according to the colleges they were going to. Later, the teleportation array would teleport them in batches according to the colleges.

Ye Lin pushed his blind clone and arrived in the team going to You Daxia Academy, feeling somewhat excited.

You Daxia Academy, located in Kyoto, was the undisputed core of You Daxia, crouching tigers and hidden dragons, with countless powerhouses.

Ye Lin was also full of curiosity and expectation for this core of You Daxia. When he devoured the people there with Endless Devour, should he get a lot of experience points and three-dimensional attributes?

Just as Ye Lin was looking forward to life after arriving in Kyoto, a pleasant female voice sounded behind him.

"That day, was it you who saved me?"

Ye Lin turned his head in confusion and met Zhuge Ni's gaze.

"It wasn't me, I didn't, girl, you recognized the wrong person!" Ye Lin shook his head repeatedly.

Zhuge Ni looked at the blind clone sitting in the wheelchair with complex eyes, then looked at Ye Lin's main body, and raised the Astrolabe.

"On the Astrolabe, there is your life aura. You can't lie to me." ===== CHAPTER 167 =====
