Chapter 87 The Mystery Is Solved

Then the question becomes, the other party has been away for at least half an hour, how can we catch them?

In this regard, Du Yuqi was also confident. He was not a person who only raised questions but could not solve them. He squatted beside him, took a clean white porcelain plate, and then sprinkled some black crumbs on it. It said:

"I found these black crumbs on the carpet, and the location where I found these black crumbs is at this location - you can notice that if the guy had been sitting here eating a moment ago, then here This position is where he put his feet, so it is very likely that it came off the sole of his shoe."

Everyone began to gather around and pay attention to these black debris, which looked like dried asphalt residue. There was a strange and oily sheen on the surface, and it also exuded some strange smell, including even the most well-informed people. Never seen this thing.

At this time, Du Yuqi had not spoken yet. The guard captain who had been silent next to him came up and looked at it carefully for a while, and then said with some doubts:

"It seems that I have seen this thing before. When we searched the opera house before, we saw some leftover dirt in the warehouse near the stables. It seems to be different, but the smell is almost the same."

Du Yuqi's eyes lit up, he stood up and said:

"Where is it? Take me there quickly?"

So soon, the captain of the guard led them to the stables. Sure enough, they saw something that seemed to have been knocked over at the door of a warehouse. There was a black greasy stain as big as a pot lid. It looked like It looked like dissolved asphalt or mud in the sewer, and there were several vague footprints left behind after stepping on it.

This kind of thing would have been easily ignored. If Du Yuqi hadn't caught this detail and mentioned it, then no one would have told him.

Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this black greasy stain. Since there was such an obvious smell, it shouldn't be too difficult to track it. Du Yuqi, on the other hand, stared at this thing and fell into deep thought, as if there was something hidden in it. As if there is some mystery.

At this time, others were quite impressed with Du Yuqi. They couldn't help but look at Du Yuqi and said:

"How did you notice this thing? The black scum on the carpet is not noticeable at all. It looks no different from cinders at first glance, right? You found it all like this!"

Du Yuqi frowned slightly, as if thinking about something, then shook his head and said:

"The reason I noticed this thing is simple;

Because this kind of thing is very special, I have come into contact with it before and even got the physical object. "

As he spoke, he took out two boxes from the dimensional ring. Both boxes were heavy and looked as if they were made of lead. Du Yuqi first chose the smaller lead box and put it in After opening it, I found that there was something impressive inside. However, it is a black lump the size of an egg, which looks similar to a lump of coal embedded with small stones, and has a slight crystallization phenomenon. This thing also emits a strange faint odor, which is similar to the ground. The smell of this oily mess is exactly the same.

Du Yuqi pointed at this thing and said:

"Ever since I entered the continent of Arad, I have been dealing with mysterious organizations. I found this thing in the dark cursed cat demon settlement near Hedunmar. The dark cursed cat demons there are used to They live on the abandoned crater platform and use the heat of the hot springs to hatch their cubs, calling that place Mud Navel Island.”

"The mysterious organization placed a source of pollution in the cub gathering pool on Mud Navel Island, polluting the water there, causing the cubs to die, and the cursed cat monster living there to go crazy. This is me The source of pollution found on Mud Navel Island.”

After hearing what Du Yuqi said, both Mingxi and Duize were surprised and said:

"Ah? So this is the reason why the cursed cat demon went crazy?"

Du Yuqi nodded:

"Yes, I studied the source of the pollution carefully when I got back, but I still didn't have any clues. Thanks to Tolin, I once again captured clues related to it."

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, Lin was a little surprised and said:

"Thanks to me?"

Du Yuqi nodded and smiled:

"Yes, do you remember the first time we met?"

Lin muttered:

"Is it that time on Xu Zu's mountain road?"

Du Yuqi said:

"Yes, that was also the first time I met Xi and Changmei. We are still on the hostile side. Lin, you finally succeeded in burning the goods transported by the Xu Ancestor Anti-Magic Group."

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, Chang Mei and Xi looked a little unnatural, while Lin chuckled and said:

"I just took advantage of it."

Du Yuqi narrowed her eyes slightly and said:

"If you hadn't successfully burned the batch of goods transported by the Xu Ancestor Anti-Magic Group, I really wouldn't have been able to discover the problem in this batch of goods! Look, what is in this second box is what I have never Some samples obtained from the burned consignment.”

Everyone immediately looked towards the second box, and immediately discovered a black, greasy, and sticky semi-solid substance. This thing looked somewhat similar to the puddle of oil leaking on the ground. Well, it just looked like it. The stuff on the ground was thinner, as if a lot of water had been added to it, while the stuff inside the first box looked like lumps of highly condensed black oil in the second box.

Obviously, the pollution source brought out by Du Yuqi, plus the goods transported by the Xuzu Anti-Magic Group, and the black oil left by the mysterious organization at this time should all be products of the same type, and it is almost certain that it is There is no other special product from a mysterious organization!

Hearing what Du Yuqi said, Chang Mei and Xi's expressions suddenly changed, because they both thought of a very serious problem at the same time and couldn't help but say:

"Then, if you put it like this, weren't Xu Ancestor Anti-Demon Group and others helping the mysterious organization before?"

Du Yuqi nodded and said:

"That's right, and according to my guess, the Xuzu Anti-Magic Group was hunted down and silenced before. Maybe it has a lot to do with the goods they received this time. The other party knew that the goods were destroyed and maybe they wanted to leak the secret, so Preemptively leak the information and, according to the style of the mysterious organization, even if it is successfully transported, I am afraid that it will be silenced. "

"Then what exactly is this thing?" Mingxi's words finally made everyone's thoughts come out.

Du Yuqi stared at the three samples in front of him, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, shook his head slightly and said:

"It has a very powerful pollution effect, but it looks similar to fuel. Although I have some guesses in my mind, I lack enough evidence, so I can't say for sure. But we can ask, others don't know, how to transport these black oils Don’t the people who left know it yet?”

After hearing what Du Yuqi said, everyone was refreshed. The smell of this strange black oil was very unique and pungent. It was early in the morning again, and there were a large number of breath samples here. Don't be too careful when tracking it. It's easy, because Shatli is close to the Snowy Land of Stone, so there shouldn't be too many creatures that are good at tracking.

Because if you want to survive in the snowy land, finding food in time is a must-have instinct. When everything is covered under the snow, an extremely sensitive sense of smell becomes the most basic prerequisite for survival. You have to find prey to survive. If you can't find it, you will be eliminated directly.

In this case, all hunting dogs and the like should be put aside. The most common tracking creature is called snow needle rat. These rats look like porcupines, and the hair on their body condenses into It has sharp ice spikes, and usually puts away the blue and white smooth ice spikes, and the body becomes a shuttle shape, traveling very fast under the snow. Once it encounters an enemy, it will hold up the ice on the surface of the body like an umbrella. The spines swell up to protect themselves, making it difficult for enemies to prey on them.

The Snow Needle Rat's diet covers a wide range of plants, meat, carrion, and feces as long as they are organic. Its sense of smell is even more terrifying. It can smell blood from ten kilometers away! Its sensitivity is seventeen times that of a hunting dog!

However, this thing is difficult to tame, and only Bantu animal trainers can use secret techniques to successfully make it obedient. However, there are not too many Bantu people in Shatli, so at this time, we need to find a few tame animals. Snow needle rats are not difficult.

Soon, everyone continued to move forward under the leadership of the three domesticated snow squirrels. After walking through the dark night for about forty minutes, suddenly a scream came from the front, followed immediately by A series of explosions and the sound of firing.

After realizing that there was a fierce battle ahead, everyone dispersed. The people who could come to join this bowl of rice were by no means ordinary people, so everyone was as smart as a rabbit. Du Yuqi also immediately jumped over. Next to it, and then quickly climbed towards the higher place. The intention of doing this was obvious. Naturally, it was to be condescending to grasp the overall situation.

More than a hundred meters ahead, there is a crossroads. You can see that an obvious temporary fortress has been built in the crossroads. There are also horses around to prevent forced collisions, welded with extremely rough techniques. of steel parapets and more.

There is also a radar-like thing above the temporary fortress, which is constantly rotating, but the coverage range is obviously much smaller. It should be used to detect biological activities within a few hundred meters of the surrounding. Du Yuqi and his team should be the vanguard. It was discovered by this thing. Now the battle ahead is in full swing, and explosions are heard one after another.

Just when Du Yuqi was about to join the battle group, he suddenly frowned because he felt a strange and weak sound of "buzzing, buzzing, buzzing" coming from his ears. If this was the first time he heard this sound , then you will definitely feel very surprised, because although the voice is weak, it is so dull that the chest is resonating and trembling.

However, this was not the first time Du Yuqi heard this sound! !

When he entered the continent of Arad for the first time, .ash.c after he severely wounded the clown, he also heard the buzzing sound in his ears. Immediately afterwards, a huge steel fortress appeared, descending with a bang to save the clown. Come on, how could this sound not be unforgettable to Du Yuqi?

"I really got caught!"

At this time, Du Yuqi took a deep breath to suppress his restless mood, and then continued to climb up and tried to see higher places. There is a saying that if you want to see more, you should climb up a level, which is a true reflection of his mood at this time.

When Du Yuqi came to a higher place, the obstacles blocking his sight were thrown under him, and his sight immediately became wider. Sure enough, he found that behind the temporary fortress at the intersection was another square in Xiatli City, and the square was brightly lit, and a huge outline was outlined by stars.

Suddenly, these lights intertwined to form a huge object that seemed as huge as a city, and it could be vaguely seen even in the dark. This giant was composed of various steel components. It can be seen that this steel giant also opened several doors, and various people and vehicles flowed in it, obviously handling a large amount of goods.
