Xiang Beifei was currently only in the early stages of Qi-Controlling, and his power was not yet impressive.
However, given the speed of his cultivation, he would definitely reach the mid-stage of Qi-Controlling within two weeks!
The speed of advancement through the realms is rted to one''s talent.
For R-ranked awakened individuals like the ss teacher Yang Hua, even after seven or eight years of awakening, he was still only in thete stage of Qi-Controlling.
Whereas S-ranked Lu Zhiwei, having awakened for only a year, was already in thete stage of Qi-Controlling.
Xiang Beifei had been awakened for less than a month and was not in a hurry.
Time at school passed quickly, and after school, once Xiang Beifei had exined the situation to his grandfather, he went to thew enforcement bureau.
The ce they were located in was the western jurisdiction of Jiuzhou, where the City Guard Bureau was a conspicuous department. It was a ce many ill-intended people steered clear of, with various powerful defenses.
Xiang Beifei entered the City Guard Bureau and asked a small police officer with an "R-ranked Firearms System" at the front desk, who directed him to the office of Lu Hong. However, he didn''t find anyone there.
The affairs department of the guardians was noisy, with manyw enforcement officersing and going, some escorting suspects, others loudly making phone calls, and some carryingrge stacks of documents.
Xiang Beifei wondered if he should wait inside, but then he caught sight of another interrogation room on the other side and discovered that Lu Hong was inside, seemingly questioning a criminal.
Through the ss window, Xiang Beifei could see the situation inside.
The criminal appeared calm in the face of Lu Hong''s questioning, not opening his mouth at all, and there was a disdainful expression in his eyes, showing no regard for thesew enforcement officers.
[Host: Wan Qiu]
[R-ranked, Remation System]
[Realm: Mid-stage Qi-Controlling]
It was unclear what crimes Wan Qiu hadmitted, but the expression on Lu Hong''s face looked somewhat gloomy.
Lu Hong questioned for a long time but seemed unable to get anything out of him. He let an officer with an "R-ranked Interrogation System" continue the questioning, then left the interrogation room.
"Uncle Lu," Xiang Beifei greeted.
"You''ve arrived."
Lu Hong saw Xiang Beifei and showed a gentle smile, saying, "I''ve been busy this afternoon, was dealing with some matters just now, it''s kind of headache-inducing."
"Did Ie at a bad time?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"No, you cracked a big case yesterday, How could I not make time for you?"
Lu Hongughed, but he still looked a bit tired; the matter of Lai Wuying, which involved Chen Gang, hadn''t allowed him to recover quickly.
But he had not been knocked down, and was still working today.
"What about that person just now?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"A robbery case,"
Lu Hong replied, "The bank vault was robbed, he must have been the one to get inside, but we don''t know how he did it. We''ve caught him, but he''s not willing to give up the whereabouts of his aplices yet, it''s a bit of a headache."
A robbery case?
The bank vault?
This guy has the Remation System, without thinking too much it''s clear he must have dug his way in from underground.
"You couldn''t get it out of him? Don''t you have specialized interrogators?"
Xiang Beifei nced again at the police officer who had taken over Lu Hong''s interrogation work. That officer possessed the interrogation system, and by all ounts, he should be an expert at extracting information.
"He''s a mute, we asked him to write down where his aplices are hiding, but unfortunately, he won''t write," Lu Hong said, rubbing his forehead.
A mute?
Xiang Beifei suddenly understood; even the most skillful interrogator is helpless against a mute.
He moved forward a couple of steps, closer to the ss window, and scrutinized the other person''s system tasks.
Thepleted task list for Wan Qiu was all rted to remation.
Most of them were——
[You have reimed one square meter of wastnd, remation value +1.]
[You have reimed one square meter of mountain forest, remation value +1.]
These tasks seemed regr and nothing out of the ordinary, but among the recent list of tasks, there were some that were quite special.
[Spent 500 remation value points to upgrade remation tools. The current spade can now reim three-dimensional space in reinforced concrete.]
[You have reimed fifty cubic meters of space within the pier of Qianhe Bridge, remation value +10.]
This system task waspleted three days ago.
The Qianhe Bridge was a heavyweight bridge with incredibly thick and massive piers, and it was unexpected that someone actually had the ability to carve out a space inside one.
Carving out a space there would indeed be a perfect hiding spot.
This guy''s ability was quite impressive. ording to his system description, this method of remation could disregard the volume of the remation target and determine the volume difference between the reimed space and the remation target proportionally.
If he had enough system points, he could even carve out a ten cubic meter space in a single ring.
The legendary "storage ring" was said to be based on this kind of remation system, a type of ck technology from the world of Xianxia stories.
"Uncle Lu, based on the clothing and the traces of dust on him, he must have been to Qianhe Bridge recently. You might try searching the piers of Qianhe Bridge; his aplices could be hiding inside. I don''t know if you have any echo-locating devices to check which pier might be hollow," Xiang Beifei said.
Lu Hong looked at Xiang Beifei in astonishment, "Is this true? Are you sure?"
"I think there''s no mistake," said Xiang Beifei.
Lu Hong then turned to look at Wan Qiu. He himself had a powerful Investigation System, but when he looked at the dust on Wan Qiu''s clothes, he could only tell that the dust came from beneath the bank.
He wanted to ask Xiang Beifei how he figured it out, but remembering what happened the day before, Lu Hong held back the question.
"Wait a moment."
With a wave of his hand, a delicately crafted ck raven appeared in Lu Hong''s hand. He patted the raven''s head and said, "Search the piers of Qianhe Bridge."
The raven darted into the sky, streaking a sh of light before vanishing.
"This is my reconnaissance tool. It''s very effective," Lu Hong exined.
This tool came from his system; in fact, he had used it yesterday, but Chen Gang understood his investigative capabilities too well and knew how to counteract them.
Lu Hong watched his system interface. As the ck raven flew out to investigate, he could see everything happening outside through the raven''s eyes at any time on his system interface.
The ck raven was incredibly fast, and since Qianhe Bridge was not far away, it almost instantly arrived and began scanning each pier built into the river.
Soon, Lu Hong''s expression became more and more astonished!
The raven''s eyes had echo-locating ability, and the scanning results showed that the inside of the piers were indeed hollow!
Not only that, but the raven''s echo-location also detected seven people lurking within one of the piers!
"They really are hidden here!"
Lu Hong was truly shocked and couldn''t help but look towards Xiang Beifei, full of amazement!
If it weren''t for Xiang Beifei''s suggestion, they might never have thought to look for people hiding inside the solid piers!
"Move out! Move out! Raven Squad, prepare to deploy to Qianhe Bridge!"
Lu Hong swiftly summoned his subordinates. At hismand, they were on the move immediately!
Xiang Beifei stood still, watching Uncle Lu''s retreating figure.
The event from yesterday had dealt Uncle Lu a heavy blow.
If he could help Uncle Lu take care of some things, he was willing to do so.
But then he thought about it.
Something didn''t seem quite right.
What had hee here to do again?
