Chapter 188 Before the Storm Comes
Just after Shen Xiu left Alia and walked into the most terrifying grove in the world alone, some people who had to stay in the closed space due to the darkness, for an unknown reason become restless.

Time back to three hours ago.

Shen Xiu and Aliya got off the plane, met Sun Lei and Fang Hang, borrowed their car, and hurried to this time's destination.

Without a car, Sun Fang and Sun Fang had to take a taxi back to the city.

Unexpectedly, the taxi they took was about to drive into the urban area when it was stopped by several cars in the middle of the road.

Shen Xiu said at the airport just now that they used his banner to "bluff and deceive" in Tiandu, beware of meeting those "lunatics" who have hatred against him.

The two were still lucky at the time, thinking that the chance of such a thing happening was not high.

I never thought that after a long time, someone came to the door.

The taxi driver, who didn't know what was going on, was so frightened that he stiffened and thought hard about whether he had provoked these gangsters who dared to stop the taxi in broad daylight, which led to this scene.

Before he could find a clue, he saw several people in dark green uniforms get off from the cars that surrounded him.

These people walked to the taxi with expressionless faces.

One of them, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face, knocked on the tightly closed car window and signaled the driver to roll down the window.

The driver is naturally unwilling, but he deeply understands a truth, a hero does not suffer immediate losses.

There are many others, and he plus the two passengers in the back row, there are only three people.

Whether the car window is rolled down or not has no effect on the next actions of the people outside the car. On the contrary, if he doesn't do so, it is very likely to anger the other party.

The taxi driver nodded knowingly, not only rolled down the window, but even opened the door.

"Big brothers, I don't know where my younger brother offended you, so I'll apologize to you first."

The taxi driver got out of the car while talking.

Unexpectedly, the Chinese-character face just glanced at him, pulled him away, sat in the car, and closed the door.

The driver was dumbfounded.

Is this rushing to grab a car?

But don't these people know that the car belongs to the company, and the GPS on it is estimated to be heavier than the car itself. Even if they snatch the car away, they may be found within a few days.

Just when the driver was in doubt, someone came over, took him to a certain car, and asked what the two passengers said on the way out of the airport, and whether a person named Shen Xiu was involved .

Only then did the taxi driver realize that it wasn't him that the group was looking for, but the two passengers.

The driver scolded Sun Lei and Fang Hang [-] times in his heart, but his mind didn't delay, it ran quickly, and kept recalling what the two had said along the way.

the other side.

Guozixian got into the car, closed the door, and rolled up the window. He turned around and looked at Fang Hang and Sun Lei, who were shivering and hugging each other. He twitched the corners of his mouth and said:

"You two don't need to panic, I'm from the Bureau of Foreign Affairs."

Hearing the other party reveal their identity, the two froze for a moment.

"Are you from the Bureau of Foreign Affairs?" Sun Lei asked in disbelief.

Guo Zilian nodded, and took out the bone dagger that belonged to the Bureau of Foreign Affairs and shook it.

But he didn't realize that his behavior was completely acting for the blind to Sun Fang who had no idea what the dagger meant to investigators.

Fortunately, Sun Lei and Fang Hang did not doubt his identity at all.

Sun Lei glanced at the dagger, but felt that it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it for a while, so he put this matter in his heart for the time being, and said weakly:
"Is the way your Foreign Affairs Bureau finds people so unrestrained?"

Guozilian didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said:

"It happened suddenly, and it was unavoidable."

After saying that, he changed his voice, stared at the two of them closely, and asked:
"You two, I don't want to go around in circles with you, I just want to ask two questions, and I will leave as soon as I get the answer."

Fang Hang and Sun Lei looked at each other, and they both saw the look of surprise in each other's eyes.

Of the two of them, one is an ordinary person with some connections and some money, and the other is an ordinary person who needs connections and no connections, and money, let alone money. It stands to reason that people from the Foreign Affairs Bureau should not be mobilized to stop the car.

Therefore, the questions that Guozilian wants to ask must have nothing to do with themselves.

Looking back on what happened recently, the two of them came up with an answer in unison—these investigators from the Bureau of Strange Affairs came here for Shen Xiu!

Sure enough, the next second, the Chinese character face asked the first question:
"Did you go to the airport to meet Shen Xiu?"

Sun Lei was about to say "no", but before he could speak Chinese characters, he continued with the next question.

"Where is Shen Xiu now?"

Fang Hang saw that this man had a serious Chinese face, and seemed to be looking for Shen Xiu for something important, so he hesitated, wondering if he should tell him about Shen Xiu.

After all, the other party was from the Bureau of Strange Affairs, and he was not in the same camp as those "lunatics". Maybe they were looking for Shen Xiu for something really important?

Before Fang Hang could speak, Sun Lei said first:

"We just heard that the popular girl group was coming to Tiandu today, so we thought about picking them up, but we didn't expect that we were deceived."

After finishing speaking, Sun Lei changed the subject, and instead started to ask the Chinese face:
"Brother, you are mobilizing so many people to stop us, isn't it because you are looking for Old Shen? Has something happened to him?"

Guo Zilian frowned, looked carefully at Sun Lei who was sloppy with him, and said in a deep voice:

"I don't have time to joke with you, tell me quickly, where is Shen Xiu?"

Sun Lei laughed dryly and said:

"Old Shen has been away for a while, it's useless if you ask us."

Guozilian narrowed his eyes, and a stern look appeared in his eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

He stopped looking at Sun Lei who dared to play sloppy with him at this juncture, and turned to Fang Hang who was hesitant to speak just now:
"This matter concerns Shen Xiu's safety. I need to know his whereabouts immediately, otherwise Shen Xiu may die."

Hearing this, Fang Hang swallowed, and turned his gaze to Sun Lei's frowning face, as if he wanted to ask for his opinion.

At this time, Sun Lei was also hesitant.

Shen Xiu had told them before that after he left, no matter who came to ask about him, they would say that they had never seen him and did not know.

But now the Chinese character face from the Bureau of Foreign Affairs said that something might happen to Shen Xiu.

He didn't know if what the man said was true.

If it was true, then if he didn't tell the other party where Shen Xiu was going, it would be harming Shen Xiu.

But if it was fake, the other party just wanted to use this method to defraud Shen Xiu's whereabouts, and then find an opportunity to set a trap, which would hurt him even more.

He didn't know the real intention of Guozilian, and Sun Lei didn't dare to answer easily, so he could only respond in silence.

The square face was almost driven mad by the two of them.

I have clearly told the real reason, why don't these two guys believe it?

Could it be that he felt that his position was not high enough, so he had to let Chief Xue be in charge?
At this time, Fang Hang suddenly said:

"Brother, is someone trying to harm Brother Shen?"

Guozilian glanced at him, gritted his teeth, and said seriously:

"It is reported that people from the old sect came to Tiandu with the purpose of killing Shen Xiu. If you don't tell me where Shen Xiu is, something might happen to him."

He was actually a member of the Old Days Sect!
Sun Lei and Fang Hang looked at each other, with deep worry in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, the Guozi face understood that these two guys had been shaken, so they quickly added fire:
"It is said that among the people who came, there are their bishops. Shen Xiu is indeed powerful, but no matter how powerful he is, can he be as powerful as the bishops of those sects? Can he be as powerful as those bishops working together?"

Thinking of Shen Xiu being besieged by a group of "lunatics", Sun Lei and Fang Hang couldn't help shivering.

It would be horrific if this happened.

However, the two wanted to prevent this from happening, but they didn't have the ability to match it.

They can neither stop those people, nor can they provide help to the people in the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

After all, Shen Xiu didn't say where she was going before.

When Fang Hang and Sun Lei told Guozilian what they had said to Shen Xiu, Guozilian's expression became extremely ugly, and he murmured softly:

"It's troublesome"

Fang Hang and Sun Lei, who realized the seriousness of the problem, also began to worry about Shen Xiu.

About half an hour later.

Guo Zilian brought Sun Lei and Fang Hang to the Bureau of Strange Affairs in Tiandu. When they saw Xue Qian, the two recounted what happened after they met Shen Xiu.

Xue Qian, who had been promoted to "Pillar", couldn't help frowning deeply.

Shen Xiu didn't tell anyone his purpose of returning to Tiandu, how could he find out.

He immediately asked Guo Zilian to arrange for Sun Lei and Fang Hang to stay, in case those old believers couldn't find Shen Xiu and jumped over the wall.

Xue Qian himself hurried back to the office and made a phone call.

"Shen Xiu has indeed come to Heaven."

"His two friends don't know where he went."

"I didn't see any little girls."

"I know, I will find him as soon as possible."

Xue Qian hung up the phone, closed his eyes, pinched the base of his nose, and sighed helplessly.

How could this happen.

In the past few days, Xue Qian inexplicably felt that his heart was beating much faster than before, and his mood fluctuated much more than usual.

After being promoted to "Pillar", this was the first time for him.

It didn't take long for Xue Qian to realize that this was probably the legendary "whim", which meant that something big was about to happen.

These days, Xue Qian stayed in the Bureau of Strange Affairs almost every day, paying attention to the various investigation reports sent by the investigators in the bureau, trying to find clues to the "major event".

I never thought that the "big event" did not happen in Tiandu, but in Jingdu thousands of miles away.

A few hours ago, after Long Zheng made that phone call, Xue Qian realized that this "big event" was really not an ordinary one, and it actually involved the whole world.

And Shen Xiu, the key person who can solve this matter, unexpectedly left Jingdu and came to Tiandu without making a sound.

This made Xue Qian's eyebrows twitch as a "pillar".

The purpose of Long Zheng's phone call was to let Xue Qian know about the "wall" and to let him "cooperate" with Shen Xiu.

In Long Zheng's view, it is absolutely impossible for Shen Xiu to leave Jingdu for no reason, he must have some ulterior reason.

After finishing the call, Xue Qian quickly got a Chinese face and asked him to take someone to the airport to "greet" Shen Xiu.

However, before Guozilian arrived at his office, Zhu Biao also called.

Like Long Zheng, Zhu Biao also told him a "big event" - people from the Foresight Society and the Eternal Life Society also came to Tiandu.

These two "rivals" have always disliked each other, and I have disliked you, which can make these two sects act together. There is no doubt that only old matters related to their beliefs can make them shake hands and make peace.

They must have known that Shen Xiu, the key person who repaired that "wall", came to Tiandu.

If you want to prevent the repair of that "wall", you have to keep Shen Xiu here forever.

The matter thus became more urgent.

Xue Qian immediately asked Guozilian to take people to the airport to bring Shen Xiu back, while he himself went to prepare for the "welcome" of those old believers.

Never thought that in the end, Shen Xiu didn't follow up, and she didn't even figure out his whereabouts.

If Shen Xiu was killed by those old believers in the sky, even if there were other ways to repair the "wall" afterwards, Xue Qian's face would be completely humiliated.

Xue Qian immediately called the think tank in the bureau to analyze Shen Xiu's purpose in going to Tiandu and his most likely destination now.

the other side.

Those old believers who came all the way from Jingdu had already arrived in Tiandu when Xue Qian held a "brainstorm".

Like Xue Qian and the others, they also lost track of Shen Xiu.

No matter how hard they tried, they could only be sure that Shen Xiu hadn't returned to Tiandu City in the car.

"That kid didn't enter the city? Where did he go?"

A bishop of the Eternal Life Church frowned deeply.

Leng Qin, who was wearing a light blue robe, thought for a while, then said:

"I think I know where he is."

Tiandu Bureau of Strange Affairs.

Combined with Shen Xiu's experience in Tiandu some time ago, the think tank finally came up with an answer after a period of "brainstorming"——Shen Xiu, who did not go to the city, probably went to that "little forest".

As for what happened in the "Little Woods", Xue Qian knew the most clearly besides Shen Xiu, Han Mingsheng, Zhou Cheng and that strange little girl.

Shen Xiu almost died there back then, if the little girl hadn't appeared suddenly, what happened today would not have happened.

From Xue Qian's point of view, Shen Xiu returned to Tiandu suddenly and did not even enter the city, so the most likely place to go was there.

After all, that "forest" almost became his burial ground, and it must mean a lot to him to want to come there.

Although he is not completely sure, but the matter has come to this point, Xue Qian can only fight.

When Xue Qian rushed to the outside of the grove with a Chinese face and others, Shen Xiu had already been in for a few minutes.

After learning from the investigator stationed here that Shen Xiu had indeed entered the woods with a little girl, Xue Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there was no mistake, and it was not too late.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, so Xue Qian could only let the accompanying investigators huddle in the board room of the camp, and look for Shen Xiu after dawn.

As for whether Shen Xiu would get lost in the world of the night, Xue Qian wasn't too worried.

After all, there is still a cabin in the "little forest", Shen Xiu can completely spend the night there.

According to Xue Qian's plan, their people had already found Shen Xiu one step ahead of the old believers, and all that was left was to wait for tomorrow's leisure and wait for those "lunatics" to come and fight.

But what Xue Qian didn't expect was that the mutation happened before dawn.
