Chapter 241 Heavenly Official Fire Justice

The restaurant Song Shiyi found was located in the south of the city near the central axis. There were taxis parked around there, and many drivers ate here.

The name of the restaurant was "Roadside Restaurant", with a faded light red signboard and a noisy door. The price of the dishes was moderate.

Most of the diners were workers who were busy until the evening. After get off work, they ordered two small dishes here to fill their stomachs and take a break.

Song Shiyi and Isabel sat in a corner. In front of them was a large plate of braised pork intestines, a kelp soup, and a plate of green vegetables.

"How does it taste?" Song Shiyi looked at Isabel.

"Delicious."

Isabel gave her evaluation after chewing.

Song Shiyi seemed to be relieved, and her expression became relaxed: "Although the taste is a bit heavy, it won't feel greasy with the kelp soup and green vegetables."

"I don't know why, I always feel that Miss Mary is very similar to me in some aspects..."

She seemed to think of something and stopped the topic.

Song Shiyi turned and said, "Ms. Mary, I wonder if your companions are interested in joining the committee? If you become a member of the committee, many things will be very convenient. Moreover, the committee is not all law enforcement departments, there are also relatively stable administrative agencies, internal affairs and research positions."

"The committee will organize the provincial examination in March this year. If you don't hate it, why not give it a try."

Seeing that Isabel did not directly refuse, Song Shiyi took out a folded paper document from her bag: "There are relevant precautions on it, you can refer to it."

At Lu Yao's remote signal, Isabel put away the paper and asked, "What happened to your apostle, Mingzi?"

"It disappeared."

Song Shiyi said, but there was no worry on her face.

She wiped her lips with a tissue and said seriously, "Here's what happened."

"About half a month ago, the committee gave me a task to track down a target."

Isabel asked, "Let me interrupt. Aren't you dealing with Wasteland No. 7?"

"The overlap of Wasteland No. 7 has long ended."

Song Shiyi explained, "The overlap is very slight. It's just that the forces of rules are entangled and act on each other, which has a short-term effect. If it is a real local border and wall breaking, the reaction will be far more than that."

"Where was I talking about? Oh, the target is special. It has excellent hiding ability, and... Do you know the tiger man on the Internet? You can go online, right?"

Isabel nodded.

"That's it."

Song Shiyi's face became serious, and her lips pursed habitually: "Don't look at its appearance like graffiti on a plane, but it comes from another high-dimensional world called Longxu."

Lu Yao, who was on the remote end, thought that it was really related to Cancong.

As expected, as long as an event related to the simulator occurs, the committee will take action.

He was prepared to listen to the committee's views on the Dragon Constellation Pillars.

"Do you know the Nine Grain Pillars?" Song Shiyi asked.

Isabel clumsily scooped a mouthful of rice with chopsticks and shook her head.

"That's the prop that Cancong is looking for. It is the prototype of the bronze sacred tree in the Sanxingdui Museum, a first-class cultural relic."

Song Shiyi picked up a piece of fat intestines: "The Nine Grain Pillars are a mythological wonder and a special passage between the Dragon Constellation and the earth. About 6,000 years ago, there were dragons in this world. After the Nine Grain Pillars disappeared, dragons could no longer come from the Dragon Constellation."

"According to the relevant information and records collected by the committee, the Nine Grain Pillars were destroyed by the Dragon Constellation."

Lu Yao's heart moved.

This is different from what Cancong said.

Isabel just listened quietly.

"And the tiger man... its real name is Cancong, the same name as the ancient Shu Kingdom's first king Cancong. It is a special life form that has existed in this world for a long time and is also the guardian of the Nine Grain Pillar."

"For some reason, after the Nine Grain Pillar disappeared, Cancong stayed."

"It looks like a two-dimensional painting, which is just a state after dimensionality reduction. Facing the overlapping of eras, the power of rules will have less impact on it."

"Mingzi and I are tracking Cancong."

Lu Yao said through Isabel: "The video on the Internet... did you deliberately put it there?"

"Yes."

Song Shiyi licked her lips: "Because not all players have contact and intersections with the committee, the committee hopes to attract their attention and give them a reminder through this method."

"It's a pity that Cancong's anti-reconnaissance ability is very strong, and we didn't get effective feedback."

Lu Yao thought, [Advanced Camouflage] is indeed a very practical skill.

When Cancong sneaked into the house, he didn't even notice it.

"Mingzai has a very keen insight. He found Cancong in the city and tracked him all the way. In order to find Cancong's other bodies, he also reduced his dimension like Cancong and entered the flat surface world."

"Then Mingzai lost contact with me."

Song Shiyi sighed: "I can feel that the fire of its faith is still there, but I just can't determine its specific location. It should be the effect of dimensionality reduction."

Isabel pretended to be surprised: "Other bodies? Cancong has many bodies?"

"Yes. It divides itself into many parts."

Song Shiyi put down his chopsticks: "Usually it appears on various planes in the simplest line form, which consumes the least and moves the fastest. Unless it reaches the ideal state of complete sealing, it can go anywhere."

"The complete body of Silkworm Cong includes a lot of memories and information. The dense information is separated from the body and turned into different bodies, such as [Characters], [Major Events], [Mission Orders]... It’s like data files of different categories are stored separately.”

"In this way, even if it dies, important information will be retained."

"After the death of Cancong, the backup body left behind will be activated. Through each body, it can continue the important information and orders from before."

"If Silkworm Bush has a hidden dangerous purpose, it would be a great threat to the current human order on earth, so the committee needs to monitor it closely to avoid unpredictable risks."

Lu Yao combined Cancong's and Song Shiyi's statements to have a clearer understanding of Cancong.

It peels off and cuts out its important memories and stores them into databases. It walks in the simplest and most relaxed form, and will not reveal any secrets even if it is caught.

After death, it can resurrect in another spare body, just like a bionic person that constantly replicates itself.

This series of abilities is both immortal and self-divided, and its mere existence can make people feel uneasy.

Lu Yao rolled up his sleeves and said to the weird graffiti on his wrist, "I have a question."

After a while, Cancong's voice came to mind.

"I do have many bodies, each of which stores different memory contents. They are all under the Nine Harvest Pillar. But since the explosion on the Nine Harvest Pillar, all the bodies have been destroyed together with Yufu and the others."

"If possible, I also hope to remember the details of the past, so that I should be able to find the way back to Longsu."

Both sides have their own opinions.

Lu Yao did not have enough information to support it, and it was difficult to make a judgment.

The only thing he could be sure of was that Cancong was indeed at a loss. The committee valued order extremely and would never allow it to move around at will in human society.

In the restaurant, Isabel said: "Where did Mingzai disappear?"

"It's about a hundred meters away from here. I was about to come here for a meal that day. Suddenly Mingzai said that he had found it, so he went to track it first."

Song Shiyi took out her mobile phone and was about to scan the QR code to pay.

"I'm here. You invited me last time."

Isabel took out cash this time and went to the front desk to pay for the bill.

After leaving the restaurant, Song Shiyi took Isabel to the other side of the street.

There is a community activity space there, equipped with sports equipment such as a pool table, a spacewalker, a twisting machine, and a big wheel. Some elderly people are walking and doing activities.

Song Shiyi said: "When Ming Tsai chases me here, I won't be able to find it."

Isabel looked around.

On the left side of the activity area is a public toilet, and on the right is a trail. Further along the trail is a kindergarten.

Isabel first went to the public toilet to search, but to no avail.

Then she made her way down the street and into the kindergarten.

There are various colorful pictures painted on the walls of the kindergarten. One wall has a sun painted on it, with a little sparrow in the middle of the sun.

If you continue to observe carefully, you can find that it is moving, but its movements are extremely slow, as if it has been slowed down dozens of times, and it is struggling as if it has fallen into the water.

"Ah, Mingzai, you are here!"

Song Shiyi exclaimed in a slightly grandiose manner: "I told you not to run around. It's really worrying."

She reached behind her and grabbed a piece of white cloth, wiped it lightly on the wall, shook the cloth, and the sparrow Mingzi flew out of the cloth. The bird landed on her shoulder, and she shivered all over.

"If you weren't here, I definitely wouldn't have found Mingzai so quickly." Song Shiyi thanked him.

"luck."

Isabel said concisely: "I'm leaving first."

"Let's make an appointment next time when we have time."

"talk later."

Looking at Song Shiyi's reluctant eyes, Lu Yao was basically sure that she just found an opportunity to ask Isabel to dinner.

Could it be that she wanted to poach the apostle because Isabel was of high level?

Lu Yao was alert.

This time he also gained something. Not only did he learn more about the origin of Cancong, but he also used the [Curse of True Vision] to check Mingzai's panel.

Lu Yao thought.
