Chapter 208 The Net of Sanity Fortress

A black pickup speeds down the streets of Arkham.

"...Are you complimenting me or scolding me?" Chen Qiang complained.

As if I and my "fortress of sanity" were more dangerous than Mr. Pickman.

"Don't take it so seriously," Qin Yixian shrugged. "On the issue of Pickman, our position is the same. I also don't want Pickman's art works depicting non-human races to spread too widely."

As Qin Yixian spoke, he slowed down the speed of the car a little.

He really thinks that the bastion of reason that can shock the world with any technology is much more "scary" than Pickman's gallery and pawn shop.Fortunately, the Bastion of Sanity is his ally, not his adversary.

"The preliminary investigation by 'Green Delta' has already come to fruition," Qin Yixian said, "We have experienced terrible scenes in your virtual space. Since then, 'Green Delta' has been confirming that in the real world The true state of those characters."

Chen Qiang thought about it for a while.

In the virtual module "Arkham Soul", he was locked in the madhouse most of the time, and could only rely on the reports of Qin Yixian, Cecilu and others to obtain information.

Qin Yixian and others tried to pick up Chen Qiang from the asylum for the first time, but were dismissed by the asylum with sweet words.

After leaving the lunatic asylum, Qin Yixian and his party rushed to Miskani Tok University.Qin Yixian met Olive Miller, a computer student.She was treated in a lunatic asylum and returned to study at the University of Michigan after recovering.In the end, she was attacked by an unknown mythical creature and died under Qin Yixian's nose.

Because they were busy rescuing Chen Qiang, Qin Yixian and others failed to find out the truth about Olive Miller's death.

"There are people with the same name and surname, but they are slightly different from those in the virtual world," Qin Yixian said slowly, "Just those key figures we met in the university town: Olive Miller, the murdered computer student The student is still alive, has indeed been treated in Arkham Asylum, and is currently working on a project with the mathematics department. But she is a second-year student, not a third-year student..."

"It's the woman who kept the monster." Cecilu also remembered.

She thought of the lumpy creatures roaming around the UM campus, apparently not of this planet.The appearance of that creature was terrifying, but it was very timid. Whenever it saw her, it shrank in a corner and shivered.

Qin Yi paused, and continued to organize his words: "...the police officer Emily Buck who assists us does exist, but he is not a school police officer, but a police officer directly under the local police station like her brother Hogg Barker. There is also Professor Jennifer, who has dealt with us, she is the full-time dean of the University of Michigan Hospital, not the deputy dean. In general, there are subtle differences from the virtual world.”

"A subtle parallel world." Chen Qiang concluded.

"Yes," Qin Yixian praised, "I just wanted to say this word."

The car turns a corner.

"For the time being, let's continue to investigate the computer department and the school hospital of the University of Michigan." Chen Qiang held his chin, "Don't startle the snake. What about the madhouse?"

Chen Qiang thought of his two patients in the lunatic asylum, the great magician Bigby and the humanoid Miguel.

Come on, your Xuanjun is on his way!
"The insane asylum is difficult to infiltrate," Qin Yixian complained. "The dean's surname is Gu, and he is a Chinese born in the United States. He is very cunning, and it is difficult for us to get the patient list of the insane asylum. However, the Bigby you mentioned is Arkham A famous lunatic, but there is a little bit of information that everyone knows."

"Do you know how he was admitted to the hospital?" Chen Qiang was curious.

"No," Qin Yixian said gently, "but compared to your description, there is one thing about him that is completely different. He is a hunchback."

Pickup drove away.

……

at the same time.

Sayoko rode a motorcycle and closely followed Officer Buck's taxi.

[? ? ? (Taxi driver) Spot check 5/25 successful]

A distraught Officer Barker misses it, but the driver of his taxi spots the female motorcyclist in the rearview mirror.

God forbid, there aren't many girls riding motorcycles in the old alleys of Arkham...

"Sir, the back..." The driver thought for a while, and felt that he still needed to remind the passengers.

"Damn it!" Buck turned his head, and the blue motorcycle was approaching step by step, so he could not help but curse.

It was discovered!

"Go! Get rid of her, it doesn't matter if you go too fast."

Regardless of whether the female driver was a member of Pickman or a subordinate of the mysterious oriental man, he didn't think that the other party would be willing to have a "friendly" exchange with him.

In Arkham... police status is no talisman!

"But..." The driver hesitated. He didn't want to get involved in unexplained troubles.

"It's for the search." Buck said simply, and slapped a stack of tips on the passenger seat.

"...I see." The taxi driver who took the money to do things did not doubt him.

[? ? ? (Taxi driver) Car driving check failed 60/50]

Behind, the female motorcyclist—Sayako Haneda narrowed her eyes.Apparently, that clumsy taxi has spotted her and is trying to get rid of her, but its driving skills are not very good.

Xiao Yezi remembered Chen Qiang's entrustment "If you are found out, then give up and put your own safety first."

Sayoko smiled.

"Sorry, boss."

She is extremely confident in her motorcycle ability and does not intend to give up.The other party's taxi turned north and drove in the direction of Miskatonic University. At least make sure whether the other party's destination is really Miskatonic University, otherwise how to explain to the boss?

"Get ahead of it!"

[Sayako Haneda succeeded in the navigation test 6/10]

Sayoko remembered the map of the neighborhood clearly in her mind, and the motorcycle turned into an alley beside the main street.

【Sayako Haneda motorcycle driving test 31/50】

The motorcycle maintained its top speed, galloping through the dark alleys of Arkham, scaring away several black cats looking for food.

It took only a few minutes for Sayoko's blue motorcycle to stop in the alley diagonally opposite the main entrance of the University of Michigan.She jumped off the motorcycle, crouched in the shadow of the corner and waited quietly.

[Sayako Haneda succeeded in stealth check 54/55]

Later, watching the taxi finally slowly drive into the campus of the University of Michigan, she showed a satisfied smile.

"Shiyin, are you in the library now?" Sayoko picked up the intercom.

Gu Shiyin is not a member of the "Search Team", but her appearance advantage can make ordinary people lose their vigilance without any cover-up.

"I'm in the office building..."

"A taxi came into the campus just now. Yes, show me where it's parked. The license plate number is..."

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the "Fortress of Reason" seems to have laid a net in the city.

　The starting point writer was convulsed in the background, and it was finally good.
