Chapter 252 New Mission
"Teacher, why do you look so bad?"
In front of the gate of Aurora Base, Chu Shiduo was sitting in the driver's seat. When he saw Tan Xin coming out of the base with an ugly face, he got out of the car and opened the door for Tan Xin, and spoke in confusion.
Tan Xin didn't answer. He sat silently in the back seat, looking at the Aurora Base with complicated eyes.
"teacher?"
"...Let's go back to the headquarters."
"good."
Chu Shiduo sensed that Tan Xin's mood was not right, so he didn't ask any questions and silently drove the vehicle out of the base and approached the law enforcement headquarters.
Tan Xin looked at the streets and pedestrians passing by outside the window, wondering what she was thinking.
He suddenly spoke:
"Where is Han Meng?"
"Han Meng?" Chu Shiduo was stunned for a moment, "Speaking of this, there are some things I need to report to you..."
…
A car horn suddenly sounded from behind.
Han Meng looked back and saw a black car parked outside Baige Square. The dark side of the car window slowly rolled down. Tan Xin was sitting in the back seat, looking at him with a smile.
Seeing this, Han Meng narrowed his eyes slightly, got up and walked there.
"How did you know I was here?" Han Meng asked.
"I don't know. I was just going back to the headquarters and happened to pass by here." Tan Xin pointed to the seat next to her, "Get in the car."
Han Meng hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and got in the car. As the vehicle started slowly, Tan Xin's voice sounded again:
"I heard that there was a little accident during the trial?"
"fine."
"This matter was my negligence. I didn't expect that some dying cats and dogs would bite people randomly in anger." Tan Xin smiled, "But the final result is still good."
"If you're here to apologize to me, that's not necessary."
"That's not true. I came to you for business." Tan Xin's expression gradually became serious, "You have just come out of the dark prison. You have no place to stay in this city and no assets. If you have nowhere to go, , I can recommend a place to you..."
"You said before that you wouldn't order me to do anything."
"Of course this is not an order, it's just a suggestion from me. You can choose to refuse." Tan Xin paused for a moment, "I just think that in that place, you should be able to find something that interests you..."
"for example?"
"For example, the truth about Aurora City, and... the secrets of the law enforcement officer."
Hearing this sentence, Han Meng's brows gradually furrowed. He stared at Tan Xin for a long time and spoke word by word:
"You mean, Aurora Base?"
"That's right."
"If I remember correctly, it is the highest-level secret area in the entire realm. Even high-ranking law enforcement officers have no right to enter or exit at will."
"Indeed." Tan Xin nodded, and he and Han Meng looked at each other,
"Then if I say, I have a way to let you in...will you go or not?"
…
In the courtyard, Jian Changsheng sat alone by the pond, holding a fishing rod and yawning lazily.
Chen Ling went to work and Chu Muyun went to see a doctor. He was the only left-behind old man in the whole courtyard. But at this moment, Jian Changsheng was recovering from his serious injury and was full of energy. But besides fishing, what consumed his most energy here was washing clothes. Already...
But he, the Dusk Club [Six of Spades], the terrifying existence that caused a bloody storm in Aurora City, is doing laundry here all day long?
Just when Jian Changsheng sighed, the door of the courtyard was opened, and two figures walked in side by side.
"Why are you guys back together?" Jian Changsheng asked in surprise when he saw this scene from the corner of his eye.
Chu Muyun pushed up his glasses: "We come back together, of course there is something important..."
"important things?"
Jian Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and excitement appeared in his eyes!
"[Six of Spades], are you ready for your first mission?" The corners of Chu Muyun's mouth raised slightly.
Hearing these words, Jian Changsheng almost cried on the spot. He threw the fishing rod aside. He suddenly felt full of strength and asked quickly:
"What kind of mission is it?? Who do you want me to kill!?"
"It's not about killing people, it's about sneaking into a place and investigating something."
"……a place?"
"How much do you know about Aurora Base?"
Hearing the words Aurora Base, Jian Changsheng was thoughtful. After all, he grew up in Aurora City and had heard a lot about some things.
"It is said that after the cataclysm more than three hundred years ago, the original order of mankind completely collapsed. After the large-scale gray world intersection began, only nine human bases remained. After a long exploration by the survivors, the people in the bases The activity area gradually expanded, and later evolved into a 'boundary area' after reconstruction and expansion.
From the Aurora Base, to the establishment of Aurora City, and then to the subsequent division into seven regions... the entire Aurora realm was the result of the expansion outward little by little with the Aurora Base as the center. "
"That's right." Chu Muyun nodded slightly, "Aurora Base is your mission target."
"What are we doing there?" Chen Ling asked.
"Confirm the status of Mr. Aurora and investigate where the explosives that were secretly transported are."
Previously, Chen Ling reported the news about the "Hand of Redemption" to the Dusk Society, the key to which was the secret transportation of explosives. Now it seems that the Dusk Society has begun to pay attention to this suspicion and even proactively sent people to investigate.
"Aurora Lord's... status?" Chen Ling read something from Chu Muyun's tone, "What happened to Aurora Lord?"
Jian Changsheng's eyes were also puzzled, as if the name of Aurora Lord was very unfamiliar to him.
"It seems that you really don't know Aurora Lord at all." Chu Muyun sighed, "Do you know why the Aurora Realm can resist the intersection of the Gray Realm?"
"Because of Aurora Lord, his domain suppressed the intersection of the Gray Realm...that is, the Aurora above Aurora City."
"That's right, but now his life has come to an end." Chu Muyun raised his hand and pointed to the sky above his head, "Guess, if Aurora Lord dies, what will happen to this realm?"
Chen Ling and Jian Changsheng were stunned at the same time.
Chen Ling had been a little confused before, why the Aurora suddenly retreated to Aurora City, exposing the seven major districts. At that time, he and Han Meng suspected that there was something wrong with Aurora Lord's status. Now he finally knew the answer.
"Aurora Lord is going to die? How could this happen?" Chen Ling frowned in confusion, "Hasn't he lived for more than 300 years?"
"Aurora Lord is, after all, just a human being... How can a human live for 300 years?"
Chu Muyun shook his head, "If he hadn't voluntarily accepted the injection of drugs and fell into 'hibernation' more than 300 years ago, the Aurora Realm would never have come to this day... But even so, this can only delay his aging. People will always die, and this is an insurmountable end.
And now, the end of Aurora City is coming..."
