~10 min read 1,949 words

【Last night, another extermination case occurred in Taoyuan City, which is not like Taoyuan. A migrant worker, because the construction site boss owed wages, got angry and brought a knife to the door late at night, broke into the boss's home, and cruelly killed the boss's family of six who were eating dinner. This is already the 7th vicious crime that has occurred in Taoyuan City this month...】

The old city of Yundu is full of traces of the times. The LCD screen in the center of the barbecue restaurant lobby was playing last night's evening news. Yundu TV station does not like to show movies or TV series in the second half of the night with low ratings, but will use rebroadcast news and advertisements to pass the night.

"Damn, ruthless person, directly exterminating the family."

"666, willing to sacrifice one's life to pull the capitalist off the horse, a role model for our generation."

"I bet a plate of sesame sauce beef tripe that this guy must be a bachelor, because a man with a family wouldn't dare to go to extremes."

"That goes without saying, now bosses prioritize hiring people who are married, raising children, and have mortgages..."

"Employees with weaknesses are easy to exploit, and they don't dare to resist."

Sitting across the aisle was a table of students. A few young boys who hadn't graduated from high school were drinking beer and eating skewers, watching the rebroadcast evening news, chatting about nutritionless topics, blowing bland water, and shouting about picking up knives without knowing who to cut.

Feng Yushu glanced at the evening news playing on the screen, then looked at Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe, and stammered: "Taoyuan City again..."

In the past few months, the public security in Taoyuan City has become worse and worse. There have been 7 vicious crimes reported this month alone, one of which was a tragic extermination case...

Feng Yushu couldn't understand the reason, but inexplicably, she felt that Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe might know something.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and the smile on his face was harmless: "Do I look like the mastermind behind a shocking conspiracy?"

Feng Yushu thought to herself that he really looked like one.

"Alright, let's go back after eating. If you go home too late, your daughter will probably report to her father that Mom has someone secretly outside." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe said with a smile.

"Eh? This, I... No, Zhi sleeps very early, she goes to bed at nine o'clock every day." Feng Yushu defended in a panic: "I came out after I saw she was asleep..."

"That's even more suspicious."

After teasing Feng Yushu a few times, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe called the waiter to pay the bill, packed the remaining uneaten barbecue, went downstairs with Feng Yushu, and then separated. The two left the street barbecue restaurant in the old city of Yundu one after another.

Bai Zhi didn't fool him. If you want to find delicious food, you really have to come to the old city. Any roadside barbecue restaurant in the old city tastes better than the high-end restaurant Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe ate at with the Zhang Hanying sisters in the new city this morning.

"Um?" Walking on the road, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe suddenly frowned.

A subtle feeling of being watched surged into his heart, as if something was quietly following behind him. Looking back, he saw a pair of bright eyes hanging in the deep darkness like lanterns, staring at him motionless.

No, that was a lantern.

The street behind him was empty. He had already walked out of the food street area. Surrounded by an old residential area, the lights in the residential area were dim. The elderly security guard was smoking in the security booth, a big wolf dog tied with a chain was squatting at his feet, and two lanterns hung at the door that were hung up during this year's Dragon Boat Festival.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe walked over and threw a piece of white-cut beef brisket packed in the lunch box to the dog. The big wolf-green tail immediately wagged quickly.

"Didn't find it."

The pair of eyes that had been secretly watching him just now were not the security guard in the booth, nor the big wolf-green dog.

Leaving the security booth behind, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe walked quickly out of the residential area, passed through the old streets of the old city where the lights were intertwined, and came to the riverside.

After crossing the Hanjiang Bridge, the opposite side of the river is the new city, but locals generally like to take a boat because the Hanjiang Bridge only has 6 lanes and is often congested on weekdays.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe scanned 100 for the boatman and asked him to set sail immediately. ——The ticket price for the cruise ship across the river is 8 yuan, which is relatively cheap, so in order not to lose money, the boatman will generally wait until it is almost full before setting sail across the river, and the small boat he boarded has a full capacity of 10 people.

The hard bow separated the soft river water, and the lanterns under the bridge swept over his head. After crossing the bridge, the feeling of being watched still did not disappear, like a maggot attached to the bone hooked in the joints, lingering.

One o'clock in the morning in the new city is when nightlife begins. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe got off the boat and walked hurriedly into the densely populated CBD, submerging his body in the crowd, and the feeling of being watched finally disappeared.

"Sure enough, I was followed..." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of being watched just now was not an illusion.

The public security in Yundu is very good, mainly because the public security in large domestic cities is basically not bad. The ubiquitous city eyes combined with strict law enforcement have made the flying car robbery that was very popular in the early 2000s gradually disappear, and road robbery is almost invisible. This is a country where street fights can make local news.

"The person following me just now shouldn't be a petty thief or a robber. They generally won't choose adult males to commit crimes, so..."

Is it a Gridder, or a Grant-receiver? Or someone else?

Such a coincidence? Just after he made the speculation that "Bai Fugui's true identity might be Fen Wu", he was followed on the way back? Observing left and right, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe walked into a women's restroom in a shopping mall, intending to change his identity along with his gender and leave here.

Opening the cubicle door, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from inside and covered Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's mouth and nose.

"Um..."

"Shh, don't make a sound."

The person hiding in the women's restroom cubicle was none other than Seeing Lan Shiwen.

"Damn, why are you here." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe opened his eyes wide and lowered his voice.

"I predicted that you would come to the women's restroom, so I waited here specifically for you." Seeing Lan Shiwen breathed a sigh of relief, his expression strange: "What are you doing in the women's restroom for no reason."

"None of your business." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe felt a little guilty: "What's the matter with looking for me so late."

Seeing Lan Shiwen closed the cubicle door and lowered his voice: "There is something I need your help with."

"Go ahead, I don't necessarily agree."

"You will agree."

Seeing Lan Shiwen's expression was calm, and he said in a flat tone: "There are 5 direct descendants of the Liu family in this generation, 2 sons and 3 daughters. 4 of them have already been killed by me, and there is 1 son who is planning to flee abroad, named Liu Hongwen, who has already boarded the plane."

"So?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe looked at him.

"Also fleeing abroad with Liu Hongwen is Shen Changjiang, the vice president of the Yanzhou Chamber of Commerce. They have all made contact with overseas forces and are preparing to take a batch of classified documents and important resources to defect abroad."

Seeing Lan Shiwen continued: "I know you accepted the commission of 'Duo A' and are planning to go and kill the vice president of the Yanzhou Chamber of Commerce, but he already knew the news in advance and fled overnight. I hope that when you go to kill him, you will also kill Liu Hongwen and all his wife, children, and family members he took abroad."

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe frowned and looked at Seeing Lan Shiwen with a strange expression: "Do I look like someone who is humble but doesn't dare to forget the country?"

"No, so you won't make a wasted trip." Seeing Lan Shiwen said:

"The Yunzhou side does not support me in exterminating the entire Liu family, so you will not get any support from the government after you go abroad. This is a private commission I give you personally, which means that after killing Liu Hongwen and Shen Changjiang, you can swallow all the things they took abroad. I won't ask, and I will help you cover it up."

"Besides that, I will give you another reward personally."

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe became interested: "What reward?"

"Intelligence on Fen Wu." Seeing Lan Shiwen said seriously.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe took a deep breath, and a playful look appeared on his face: "The rule of predicting the future really lives up to its reputation. You are right, I will agree.

But I won't risk my life to work for you for free just because of a few words. I need a deposit."

"I know." Seeing Lan Shiwen nodded. He had known that Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe would ask this:

"Fen Wu is an old guy who has been active in the Gridder circle since the 1970s. This Gridder has experienced the changes of the times and has lived until now. Do you know what this means?"

Gridders use their bodies to drive ghosts. While driving the rules, they are also constantly suffering from the backlash of evil ghosts. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe himself is a living example.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe drove Tai Yi on June 5 this year, and today is July 30. In two months, he has lost himself several times and was on the verge of death. This is still with the help of the thought steel seal simulated by Tai Yi and the observation of the Four-Faced Buddha.

Other Gridders do not have Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's character and encounters. Their lives will only be shorter than Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe's. To prolong their lives, they must either pay a huge price like Yu Zi Qian to find an evil ghost that can make up for their core flaws, or try not to use the power of the rules and linger on as a mortal.

And Fen Wu, this Gridder, has been active since the 1970s until now. He is not lingering until now, but active until now.

What does this mean?

It means that Fen Wu has gone very, very far on the road of upgrading, and has even begun to explore the end of this thorny road.

"Do you want to know what the end of the road of upgrading is?" Seeing Lan Shiwen asked softly: "Do you want to know what our future is like?"
