The man nodded and said, "Your Excellency, as far as I know, they are mainly concentrated in several blocks in the east of the city."

Chu Lingxiao turned to look at Gu Qingze, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, "Madam, it seems that we need to go to the east of the city."

Gu Qingze nodded slightly to show his agreement.

The two said goodbye to the man and walked towards the east of the city. The people on the street were still busy with their own affairs and seemed to know nothing about the abnormal phenomena in the city.

Gu Qingze wondered in his heart, what secrets are hidden in this illusion? And can they find the key to break through the illusion?

The streets in the east of the city were exceptionally quiet compared to other places in the city. The cold wind blew past, making the trees on both sides of the street rustle.

Gu Qingze couldn't help but shiver and unconsciously leaned closer to Chu Lingxiao.

Chu Lingxiao felt his movements and said softly, "Don't be afraid, Madam. I am here."

Gu Qingze nodded, but was wondering in his heart what this mysterious power was.

The two came to the neighborhood where the incidents were rumored to have occurred frequently. The surroundings were quiet and there was nothing unusual.

"It seems we have to wait until night to make any discoveries." Chu Lingxiao said in a low voice.

Gu Qingze looked at the sky and said, "Let's find a place to rest first."

Chu Lingxiao nodded and took Gu Qingze to a nearby inn.

After entering the inn, Chu Lingxiao asked for a room.

After dinner, the two returned to their room to rest.

As the night deepened, the entire east side of the city fell into silence.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from a distance.

Chu Lingxiao and Gu Qingze woke up immediately, looked at each other, and quietly walked out of the room.

The strange sound seemed to come from the end of the street, and the two walked cautiously in the direction of the sound.

In the darkness, a mysterious figure looms.

"It's him!" Gu Qingze said in a low voice.

Chu Lingxiao nodded and quickened his pace.

However, just as they were about to approach the figure, a powerful force knocked them away.

Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao climbed up with difficulty, looking at the mysterious figure in front of them, their hearts filled with confusion and fear.

The mysterious figure seemed even more mysterious in the darkness, as if carrying some unspeakable majesty.

Chu Lingxiao stared at the figure, trying to find any clues from its movements.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Chu Lingxiao shouted loudly, and his voice echoed in the quiet street.

The mysterious figure did not answer, but just stood there quietly, emitting a strange aura.

Gu Qingze approached Chu Lingxiao and whispered, "Husband, this person is very strange. We must be careful when dealing with him."

Chu Lingxiao nodded and reached out to hold Gu Qingze's hand.

At this moment, the mysterious figure slowly spoke in a low and hoarse voice: "You shouldn't be here."

It seems that this is the key NPC. Gu Qingze secretly tapped the palm of Chu Lingxiao's hand to remind him.

Chu Lingxiao immediately understood what he meant. According to his character setting, he said sternly, "This place is under my jurisdiction. Why shouldn't we come? There are many strange phenomena in the city. I will find out the truth."

The mysterious figure sneered, "You can't afford the price of the truth."

"Humph, as an official, it is my duty to protect the safety of the people. No matter what the cost, I will get to the bottom of this matter."

Chu Lingxiao's tone was firm and resolute.
