Chapter 415 Winning Medals
After bidding farewell to everyone, Jiang Qian and Xue Yang returned to the underground garage of the Twin Towers accompanied by the young officers of the Security Department.
The car was parked there. Watching this group of young security department seedlings move Xue Yang's sundries into the trunk and return respectfully to report, Jiang Qian felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had seen it before.
"Senior Jiang! The things are all put away. Do you think there is anything else you can help with?"
The leading brother looked at Jiang Qian with longing, and his bright eyes flashed with admiration that could not be concealed! It was as if Jiang Qian was their benchmark, idol, and guiding light.
This subtle emotion emerged when they first went to Jiang Qian's new office. Looking at Jiang Qian, who was of the same age as themselves but had an astonishing rise in speed, the thoughts that came into their hearts were not envy or jealousy, but worship!
In the month of joining Wanzhong Group, he was hired by the Special Affairs Center as an exception. In less than half a year, he had his own office with a conference room... The boss's desk, long sofa, refrigerator, coffee machine, projection equipment, etc. were all available, which was a proper treatment for license holders.
Judging from the exaggerated floor space of his independent office, it is possible that it is in short supply in the offices of the rich and powerful.
This is not just a matter of space and convenience.
In Wanzhong, the size of the office is a symbol of status and power, which means that Jiang Qian has a status that these young people can't even dream of in a leading large enterprise like Wanzhong Group.
"Okay, thank you."
Jiang Qian looked at the eager anticipation in the young man's eyes and patted him on the arm.
As a former senior in the Security Department, he said the classic line that was clichéd but full of atmosphere: "Do a good job."
"Yes!" Several young people flashed with joy in their eyes, raised their chests and raised their heads, saluted Jiang Qian again, and then left.
Xue Yang next to him was stunned.
"Old Jiang, why do I feel like you've become a different person? Is it because of the difference in status that I can't understand you?" He pretended to be bitter.
"It's not because of the difference in status."
Jiang Qian raised his lips, turned his back to the monitor, and a summoning windpipe appeared in his palm, and handed it to Xue Yang: "Your props, repaired."
To be precise, a new Kraken was replaced inside.
The Kraken that accompanied Jiang Qian in the promotion ceremony was undoubtedly "sacrificed", but fortunately, "Hungry Ghost Apocalypse" has abundant resources, and he took another one to make up for the shortage.
"I don't want it, I'll give it to you! Anyway, I still owe you a heart, isn't it a priceless treasure? This is the interest." Xue Yang said generously.
Jiang Qian thought for a while: "Is it time to go to the dungeon again recently? Well, after clearing "Hungry Ghost Apocalypse", the super species world should not send you to the low-end game again, but the mortality rate of the high-end game is still high, what can you do without a decent trump card? "
Xue Yang wanted to be tough and waved his hand freely! But after Jiang Qian said that, he couldn't be tough anymore.
He stared at the prop in Jiang Qian's hand, and his heart was itching.
"Take it." Jiang Qian stuffed it into his hand.
He didn't need this prop now, and there was a magic modified prop resource library behind him waiting for him to turn the card at any time.
"Alas, Lao Jiang, when can I catch up with you..." Xue Yang put away the bagpipe, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.
Jiang Qian was about to speak, when suddenly, a malicious feeling triggered his vigilance!
The malicious feeling was fleeting.
Jiang Qian quickly opened his spiritual vision and looked around them.
Except for the few security officers who had walked from the basement to the glass door of the elevator hall, there was only one suspicious stranger around:
The man was of medium build, about 30 years old, wearing a black hoodie and a black Wearing black jeans and black canvas shoes, he was walking towards several security officers with his back to him...
Jiang Qian took a closer look and thought to himself:
This man is actually a mutant with collapsed energy structure!
Although his evolution level is not high, only one state, how could a mutant openly sneak into the territory of Wanzhong Group?
While this doubt flashed through his mind, the mutant dressed in black suddenly quickened his pace, and in an instant, white light exploded in front of the elevator hall.
The dazzling light instantly involved several security officers, and accompanied by a thunderous explosion, the strong airflow carried the scorching flames and rushed towards Jiang Qian and Xue Yang!
"Old Jiang! "
Before Xue Yang's scream, the chivalrous cloak blocked the two of them, isolating the impact of the explosion.
Jiang Qian held a corner of the chivalrous cloak, and through the dazzling scene created by the explosion, he saw the security officers lying in front of the hallway. All four of them were dying, and some of them were blown to pieces by the sudden explosion before their limbs were unfolded.
And the black-clothed man he just noticed was still rushing, still aiming at the security officers!
Among the security officers, some were still conscious and were struggling to get up, but they saw a strange man rushing towards them Attack! The officer felt something was wrong, but he was powerless to resist and could only watch the other party approaching rapidly.
As the crisis approached, his pupils shrank more and more, and the fierce face and sneer of the strange man were reflected in his colleagues. Then, a barrier blocked his sight.
It also blocked the attacker.
The chivalrous cloak fluttered in the roar of the explosion. The attacker who rushed over swung a blow, but it was like hitting cotton. The force was completely removed, and the same force was coming at any time.
He then noticed that at the core of the cloak, a doll's smiling face was revealed.
Rebounding handkerchief!
When his sight was completely drawn to the child's smiling face, a hand stretched out from the air, and the palm with hidden fangs slapped the attacker's chest, knocking him to the ground, choking on blood.
Jiang Qian revealed his true face from the invisible armor and calmly stared at the attacker who fell to the ground.
Unexpectedly, the attacker, who was clearly just a state, did not lose his fighting power.
After coughing up a few mouthfuls of black blood, he suddenly attacked at close range, opening his claws to grab Jiang Qian's face!
So close, Jiang Qian focused his attention, and a familiar brand appeared in the open claws...
Then, the attacker's wrist was grabbed by Jiang Qian, and he twisted it hard, and the opponent's palm was facing up. After being forced to twist his body, he knelt on the ground with a "clang".
When Jiang Qian went to check the suspicious brand again, the attacker's body exploded without any warning!
The explosion occurred in the palm of his hand, bursting along the joints and body, and bursting out hot flames.
Under the invisible armor, the scales stand up!
Xue Yang in the distance was pushed directly against the car. After falling, he shouted Jiang Qian's name and staggered towards the center of the explosion. Of course, he was overturned by the heat wave again after a few steps.
Xue Yang took out the summoning bagpipe and was about to call for help regardless of the consequences, but he was suddenly shocked to see a figure standing alone in the smoke after the firelight faded.
"Old Jiang... Old Jiang!"
Jiang Qian stood in place, holding the almost scrapped invisible armor in his hand. The captive under his feet had been burned to ashes in the explosion just now, leaving no trace.
It was as if this person had never appeared here.
Along with the familiar, round mouthparts imprint that resembled lampreys, the traces were also wiped out.
It turned out that the malice was always directed at me, huh... Jiang Qian looked up indifferently and found that the underground garage that had just been baptized by the strong explosion had not been significantly impacted. Judging from the traces on the ground, it seemed that something had bound the destructive power of the explosion within a relatively narrow range.
So he turned to look at the injured and unconscious security officer in front of the lobby.
Unexpectedly, this glance revealed an incredible scene: a pair of different double pupils were projected on the transparent glass door!
Just as Jiang Qian looked at the other party, the double pupils were also staring at Jiang Qian.
Doctor Cai? No... Jiang Qian remembered the female doctor who had performed a thoracotomy on him. She also had such a pair of strange double pupils, but the auras of the two were completely different.
Doctor Cai is a kind-hearted doctor. Double pupils are used to treat diseases and save lives. Although they are different, they are not cold; and the double pupils that appeared on the transparent glass door condense the deterrence and oppression of the superior.
However, just when Jiang Qian was puzzled, the double pupils disappeared, and the alarm in the underground garage sounded!
After a while, the large force of the Security Department rushed over and blocked the underground garage at the fastest speed, especially the area where the incident occurred.
Several seriously injured and unconscious officers of the Security Department were immediately carried away for rescue, while Jiang Qian and others stayed to be questioned.
The head of the Security Department, who had just met not long ago, came to the scene in person and walked towards Jiang Qian with a solemn face.
"Director Jiang, we meet again."
"Yes." Jiang Qian nodded and showed his ID from the Special Affairs Center. The Wanzhong Group's identity alone is not enough to be authoritative.
The other party was stunned for a moment, and his expression eased slightly: "What happened?"
The two of them omitted unnecessary courtesy and went straight to the point.
Jiang Qian briefly described the entire incident, of course, excluding the special branding part. That was confidential content of the Ashes Task Force, and it was not convenient for the Wanzhong Group Security Department to participate in depth.
However, after hearing this, the person in charge had a more complicated look.
Because this means: except for Jiang Qian and Xue Yang, no one else can prove the authenticity of this description for the time being.
If it weren't for Jiang Qian's special identity, he could have included Jiang Qian in the scope of suspect investigation.
The two sides were deadlocked for a while.
An officer from the Security Department reported: The surveillance equipment did not capture the process of the incident, and the specific cause is being investigated.
The person in charge subconsciously looked at Jiang Qian again.
Jiang Qian said calmly, "It seems that we can only have a conclusion after those colleagues wake up."
"Sorry." The other party said in a deep voice, "I can only ask you two to stay in our sight for the time being."
"Wait," Xue Yang next to him finally reacted, "Are you going to detain us?"
The head of the security department was speechless for a moment.
"Hey, it's not our responsibility that the company's surveillance has problems. You should go and check the perpetrators. Why do you always point the finger at us?" Xue Yang was indignant.
They had just experienced such a dangerous thing, and now the aftermath has not yet subsided. The two "victims" have become "suspects".
"But the surveillance data is lost, and we can't determine the identity of the perpetrator for the time being." The head of the security department was also embarrassed.
"Then do you suspect that we are lying?" Xue Yang said anxiously.
"Xue Yang." Jiang Qian held his shoulders and signaled him not to say anything.
He knew that Xue Yang was still in an emotional state after experiencing such twists and turns for the first time, and this would only make things worse.
Fortunately, even in an emotional state, Xue Yang was still very happy to cooperate with his instructions and obediently fell silent.
So Jiang Qian turned to the head of the security department again and asked, "Can I make a phone call?"
"This..."
Just as the other party was about to answer, the phone on his waist started buzzing, so he had to answer the call first.
After a while, the head of the security department turned around and explained to Jiang Qian politely, "I'm very sorry, the situation you described has been confirmed, and you two can leave at any time."
"Thank you, is there any progress?" Jiang Qian asked.
He vaguely guessed that there seemed to be a third party who came forward to guarantee and directly eliminated his suspicion.
"The hidden camera device captured the image consistent with your description. The perpetrator was confirmed to be an ordinary employee of Wanzhong Group. He was not a license holder when he joined the company, and he had no abnormal behavior recently. I don't know why he would use props to carry out a terrorist attack in the company today."
The head of the security department sighed and continued:
"This case will be transferred to the Special Affairs Center for follow-up investigation immediately. I am sorry to trouble you today, Captain Jiang!"
"No trouble, you guys go first." After Jiang Qian finished speaking, he pulled Xue Yang into the car and prepared to leave.
He was now basically certain that he had just encountered an assassination by the Ashes Organization.
A very clever design: using an Ashes supporter with a low evolution level as a medium, making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, taking the enemy by surprise, and then killing them with one blow.
The attack on several young officers of the Security Department was just to confuse the audience and reduce their precautions. The other party's real target was him.
"Old Jiang, are you... okay?"
Xue Yang got in the car, and his anxious mood finally calmed down. He began to care whether Jiang Qian was injured in the attack just now.
"I'm fine."
Jiang Qian answered while driving.
The phone rang, and he answered it without hesitation.
Ji Ming's voice came from the other end of the phone, asking the same question: "Are you okay?"
"No, Minister, you know everything?" Jiang Qian was not surprised, "I have a situation to report to you."
He suspected that the call that made the head of the security department suddenly change his face was from Ji Ming.
"Well, come to the branch as soon as possible!" Ji Ming said, and then hung up the phone.
Jiang Qian sent Xue Yang back, and immediately drove to the Special Affairs Center of the Public Security Bureau and went straight to Ji Ming's office.
The first sentence he heard when he entered the door was:
"The cooperation with Hui Jin ends here. From now on, you must be more careful in your actions."
"Understood."
Jiang Qian also told Ji Ming everything about the raid that happened today.
Ji Ming nodded thoughtfully: "It's the Ashes South Sect."
"Ashes South Sect?" Jiang Qian found that he had missed a lot of intelligence during the time he was away from the Ashes Task Force.
"The one who used the lamprey brand to spread his disciples was the Destruction God of the Ashes South Sect." Ji Ming explained.
Since the training island naval battle, the Ashes Organization has reached an agreement with the authorities to no longer hunt down Jiang Qian, a special talent who has mastered the mutation healing technology; in exchange, the authorities also need to withdraw the wanted order for the Ashes Organization.
But now, Jiang Qian was assassinated by the Ashes South Sect, and the friendly agreement was terminated.
What was the reason?
Jiang Qian didn't ask.
Since ancient times, good and evil cannot coexist. The so-called "handshake and peace" is also a temporary reconciliation based on the interests of each other. Once the balance of interests tilts, the so-called agreement will become a piece of waste paper at any time.
"The first to break the contract was Huijin, and the fuse was the Shenshan incident."
Jiang Qian didn't ask, but Ji Ming had to tell him, because this matter was closely related to him: "Huijin's goal is your identity card. They want to take back the 'relic' of the Dragon God."
Is it really for a "dragon"? Even if it is an unformed "dragon" card, it has already attracted covetous people... Jiang Qian thought so and asked the confusion:
"Even if it is a card that failed to transform into a dragon?"
Ji Ming nodded: "Even if it has not yet transformed into a dragon, at least it can be confirmed that the four cards of Tengshe, Huashe, Mingshe, and Hook Snake came from the Dragon God, so they were once part of the "dragon". Even if it has not been successfully transformed into a dragon for the time being, there is no guarantee that there will be no possibility of transforming into a dragon in the future. "
"But how did the news leak out? "Jiang Qian frowned.
Not many people know about this.
Only Lan Junxian and Ji Ming knew the details in the Shenshan Task Force, and then there was the White Tiger Venerable and the housekeeper Di, as well as the Dragon God's daughter who met on the Bund that day.
So, who would be the leaker who colluded with Ashes?
Jiang Qian was thinking about it, but Ji Ming reminded him: "It's not just external organizations. Even within the Ten Clans, there are many people who are obsessed with unconventional forces. "
