Underworld Retrograde

Chapter 156 Daughter

Chapter 155 The wedding team

During the new group chat, Chongqi sent the address.

It was a newly built neighborhood in Dongcheng New Town.

In the fog, the damage there was relatively serious, with more than 60% of the houses damaged.

However, Border City No. 3 has strong infrastructure capabilities, and with the use of certain forbidden items, the repairs have been completed in less than a month.

One after another, high-rise buildings have been restored and given a new look.

Nowadays, many residents of Jucheng have come back to live. Chongqi is one of them, and she also lives in that area.

Recently, some strange rumors seemed to have appeared there, and Chongqi accidentally came into contact with these rumors.

As a psyker, she first suspected the influence of supernatural power, so she wanted to summon a few friends to check it out together.

If it is determined to be an extraordinary incident, it must be officially handled by the authorities.

In the group chat, Detective, Xinghuo and others also appeared and asked about the situation of Chongqing.

There are a total of six people in the group, Cheese, Night Commander, Starfire, Heavy Cavalry, Detective, and Shadow Stream.

Except for Cheese, who had already left the giant city, everyone else responded to the heavy ride.

After all, it was rare for Chongqi to ask for help with his boring gourd-like character.

And it's not a difficult matter. Except for Xinghuo who wants to perform the task, everyone else agreed to the investigation request.

[Does this kind of investigation have to be done at all times? ] Even though Starfire couldn't help, she still complained in the group chat.

After all, nine out of ten investigation missions are just rumors or legends, and the reasons are even more bizarre.

And Li Yelai, as a fourth-awakened psionic person, also refused to accept the news at night. Investigating such rumors would be a bit of a fuss.

[You don’t understand the gold content of Night·Monster Spawner·General. This investigation may really catch a big fish. I’m already used to it! ] The detective is very confident about Li Yelai's bad luck. After all, every time Li Yelai acted with him, something would always happen.

From the virtual creatures born in the initial evil ritual, to the ghost and fairy altar of Wang De's family, to the dream butterfly tree trunk in Jing's manor, and most recently, the dragon-eating vine.

He was already a little numb.

However, this also has the advantage of eliminating possible risks in advance.

Therefore, the official did not resist Li Ye coming to pick up private work or go on investigation missions.

[Laughing to death, you are always there every time something happens, what qualifications do you have to criticize me? ] Li Yelai complained and asked: [Where are you? Take me for a ride? ]

[good. I'll wait for you at Exit 2 of the branch. Give me authorization and I'll help you bring your equipment there. ] The detective responded: [Although investigation missions often end in vain, with you here, I doubt there will be a fight. ]

[It should be said that when you are here.] Li Yelai responded and authorized the equipment in the communicator.

A psyker's equipment can include armor or heavy guns, or even large objects.

For example, the captain of the fifth team, the pale weapon, is a coffin. The real situation is that it contains some mysterious and weird flesh and blood. Once opened, the blood and flesh creation can be extended to strengthen the pale's spiritual eye ability.

For another example, the weapons of the epidemic doctor, the captain of the logistics team, are thirteen pieces of advanced extraordinary armor, and these armors are equipped with psychic weapons. As a plague doctor in the divine path, he can control these armors at the same time. The enemy is equivalent to a duel with thirteen powerful and capable psyker knights!

But usually, these equipment cannot be kept with you all the time.

As a result, most handlers store their equipment in the logistics team.

Once there is a mission or a dispatch, the logistics department will have the equipment delivered to you as quickly as possible.

Li Yelai's set of Mingguang armor was stored in the logistics team.

Later, Li Yelai sent the address to Jing Lin and appeared at Exit 2 of the branch carrying a big black umbrella.

He was wearing a black trench coat and carrying a big black umbrella, giving him an inexplicable weird yet serious look.

It made some of the handlers who came and went look askance.

Li Ye came because of the curse and had contact with Ye Bu Shuoduo from each team.

But in fact, it is rare to see Ye Bushou in the giant city.

Even within the processing department, it is rare for fellow processors to see a night without collection.

Like a spark, he only saw it overnight in the mist and never came into contact with it.

And becoming Ye Bushou means that it has awakened four times and has considerable combat power, so it can be called an elite!

Therefore, when Li Yelai appeared wearing a windbreaker that never closed at night, the handling staff were a little surprised.

Among them, there are new handlers with admiration on their faces, while there are also senior handlers with respect in their eyes.

This made Li Yelai feel a little emotional.

"Sir, Ye Bu Shu, do you need help?" An unknown handler came up and asked, "If you need cooperation, our team can help at any time."

"Thank you, but no, I'm waiting for someone." Li Yelai responded: "Please don't pay attention to me."

"Okay, I wish you good luck." The handler nodded and left immediately.

Soon, the detective arrived. He drove a silver off-road vehicle to the side of the road and said, "You are wearing Ye Bu Sheng's windbreaker. Others thought there was some major action. Although Ye Bu Sheng's windbreaker looked like It sounds simple and unpretentious, but in reality, psychics who understand its significance will take it seriously."

"I know." Li Yelai said after getting in the car: "But Ye Bushou must wear a windbreaker, which represents the arrival of human power, and all humans who see this windbreaker can ask for help. All people who see the windbreaker The enemy dares to know that his opponent is coming!"

Speaking of this, the champion cloak is actually similar.

Those who wear the champion cloak will attract the attention of all non-human creatures.

This is a provocation and a declaration of war.

It announces to all non-human creatures who see the cloak that the champion has arrived, and the next step is life and death!

"Congratulations again on becoming Ye Bushou. Unlike me, I only dare to stay in the logistics team." The detective smiled bitterly.

After he encountered the virtual creatures for the first time, he did not dare to stay in the execution team, but retreated to the logistics department.

He is now in the second awakening, but he still has no combat ability.

He can only work hard to practice skills in close combat. In order to reach the strength of fighting with Li Yelai, who can fight psychics with cold weapons alone.

There is no way, without combat skills, he can only rely on flat attacks.

Li Yelai said: "Forget it. Why are you sad here? You saved many people with double guns in the disaster fog."

In the disaster fog, the detective held double guns to protect the human team and faced the insect swarm, and shot them in the head. After the bullets were used up, they picked up bricks and joined the human people in a bloody fight with the swarm of insects.

How could such a person be a coward? It's just that he is not suitable for fighting psychics.

"Yes, I'm forced to do this with you. It's a training for me!" The detective complained: "This time, I hope it's just an investigation. However, I took the lead in greeting my teammates, and the nearest security office has also been notified."

"Don't worry too much, this is just an investigation, and I also called people." Li Yelai responded: "A friend of the fourth awakening, from a psychic family, with good overall strength. Although there are curse restrictions, it should be enough to deal with emergencies."

"I hope so." The detective nodded, and then stepped on the accelerator.

He took Li Yelai to the destination quickly.

More than an hour later, when the two arrived, Yingliu had already arrived.

She was waiting in a car outside the street with Chongqi, and the two girls were drinking milk tea in their hands.

After receiving Li Yelai and the detective, Chongqi rolled down the window for the two to follow.

Then, he drove everyone to his residence.

It was an old residential area not far from this street, with low floors and no elevator.

Although Chongqi became a psychic, she did not enter the family apartment and still lived in the old residential area.

As for her parents, she did not reveal them.

However, the detective told Li Ye privately that her parents had divorced and formed a new family.

Originally, her mother wanted to take her away, but her stepfather and his son were not good people.

The detective did not say what happened specifically, but the ending was that Chongqi completely cut off contact with them.

So, in this regard, everyone kept silent. Just as they never asked about Li Yelai's parents, no one would rub salt into their friends' wounds.

When they went upstairs, they accidentally ran into Chongqi's acquaintance.

"Xiao Zhen, bring friends to play at home?" It was a middle-aged woman and a young girl, and the middle-aged woman was carrying a basket downstairs.

The Xiao Zhen she mentioned was Chongqi.

At the same time, the young girl behind her was observing Li Yelai and others with scrutiny.

Chongqi nodded calmly: "Yes, auntie."

"You kid, you still don't like to talk." The middle-aged woman seemed to be used to Chongqi's coldness and expressionlessness. After greeting everyone, she left.

The young girl smiled at Chongqi, but there was no smile in her eyes.

Originally, there was nothing, just a simple exchange between neighbors.

But Li Yelai had a strong body and sharp hearing.

Unexpectedly, he heard their voices after they walked out of several floors.

"She actually has friends? It's really rare."

"She actually brought a man home. Just like her mother, she only knows how to seduce men."

"She has a tense face all day, as if others owe her something."

"She pretends to be pure and innocent. Last time I saw her go home in the early morning, she must have been fooling around all night."

For some reason, they seem to be quite hostile to Chongqi. It's really inexplicable hostility. She brought a man home and seduced a man. So, they completely ignored Yingliu, a girl?

Li Yelai frowned, but didn't speak.

Afterwards, the four of them came to Chongqi's room. It was obviously a girl's room, but the layout was surprisingly plain and simple.

Without any excessive decoration, the whole room was dominated by white and light wood, giving people a fresh and natural feeling. There were not too many decorations on the wall, only one or two simple paintings.

It was in line with Chongqi's temperament. At least in Li Ye's opinion, she was indeed a girl who rarely had emotional fluctuations and rarely spoke.

After several people sat down, Chongqi poured boiled water for the three of them and got straight to the point.

"Recently, there are rumors that someone saw a wedding procession in ancient costumes on the streets at night." Chongqi said.

"Ancient costumes? Wedding procession?" The detective frowned: "There doesn't seem to be such a weirdness in the database?"

"Wait a minute." Li Ye responded, and then asked the contact person. Soon got a negative answer.

There is no such type of taboo or weird data in the database.

At least, Border City No. 3 has never had it.

"I checked it too, but I have no clue. According to rumors, the bride-receiving team was led by a pale man wearing ancient clothes and red flowers. Behind him were drummers, gong players, and flower girls." Zhongqi responded.

"On the street. Aren't there any surveillance cameras on the street?" Li Yelai also asked.

"It was still under reconstruction, and there was no surveillance." Chongqi shook his head and said, "But then I squatted on the street for another night. But I didn't find any team."

"That should be just a rumor, right?" Yingliu said, "It's not in the database. Moreover, as a psychic, your perception of psychic power is much higher than that of ordinary people. What ordinary people can see, you must be able to see. Even you didn't find it, could it be just a prank by some people?"

"That's what I thought at first." Chongqi nodded and said, "But recently, many people nearby have dreamed that someone with a pale face approached with an invitation. So, I suspect that at first, they actually saw the wedding procession walking on the street in their dreams. Dreams and reality are intertwined."

"Many people?" Li Yelai frowned: "Did you receive it?"

"I was squatting on the street that night." Chongqi responded.

Did I miss the invitation because I didn't fall asleep?

Some kind of mental interference?

Should I invite colleagues in this area to hypnotize nearby residents?

It's a pity that Cheese is not here, otherwise she would be able to find the truth quickly with her ability.

Li Yelai was thinking, and at this moment, his cell phone vibrated. It was Jinglin's call.

"I'm here, where are you?"

Li Yelai looked at Chongqi: "The helper I called is from Yaoqing Jing's family. Let him come over? Or should we go out?"

This is Chongqi's residence. If Chongqi doesn't want to expose this, he will go out to communicate with Jinglin.

After all, Jinglin is not a colleague. It's better to be careful.

"I don't mind, just ask him to come over." Chongqi responded.

So, Li Yelai walked to the balcony of the room and saw the vehicles parked on the street from a distance.

A tall young man in winter clothes was standing by the street.

That was Jinglin.

"Look to the left, here." Li Yelai waved on the balcony.

Soon, Jinglin drove downstairs.

After entering the room, he greeted everyone and brought a few white mountain teas, a specialty of Yaoqing Giant City.

After hearing the information from several people, Jinglin pondered for a moment.

As a descendant of a psychic family, he is indeed well-informed.

"I have seen similar monsters in Yaoqing City. I guess someone here has traded with the monsters." Jing Lin said in a deep voice: "Now, they are here to collect the price."
