Chapter 144 The culprit
"As for their birthdate information, as long as it matches the one on their ID card, it is easy to obtain, whether they are applying for a visa or checking into a hotel, so this still needs further investigation."

After listening to the other person's explanation, Xia Yanqing's eyes deepened. "I understand, thank you."

"Please investigate the whereabouts of those people who came out of the council chamber."

"Ok."

After Xia Yanqing hung up the phone, the person traveling with him glanced at him. The other person wanted to ask Xia Yanqing some questions, but before he could speak, he heard his teammate's voice.

"Captain An, Director Xia, we've made a discovery."

As the voice came through the earpiece, Xia Anhe quickly glanced down at the tracking device in his hand. After exchanging a look with Xia Yanqing, the two turned around in unison and headed in the direction of the person who had just made the sound.

It took time to get there and meet up with the other party; by the time we saw them, it was already seven or eight minutes later.

When the two arrived, special forces soldiers in special uniforms surrounded six people with guns raised. Xia Yanqing recognized two of the six people: Shen Baisu and Feng Yin.

Seeing the special forces pointing their guns at Shen Baisu and Feng Yin, Xia Yanqing's temple throbbed instinctively.

"Don't be impulsive, they're on our side!"

Xia Yanqing was mainly saying this to Shen Baisu and Feng Yin.

He knew that the special forces wouldn't act before Shen Baisu and Feng Yin did, but that might not be the case with Shen Baisu and Feng Yin; they could make a move at any time.

In particular, Xia Yanqing had always felt that the two of them were not to be trifled with, and now that they were being held at gunpoint, he didn't think they would be afraid or obediently cooperate.

He couldn't even imagine what would have happened if he had arrived a few minutes later—would the two sides have started fighting?

As soon as Xia Yanqing spoke, Xia Anhe ordered her men to put down their guns. She stared at Shen Baisu and Feng Yin for two seconds, then turned to Xia Yanqing and said, "If I'm not mistaken, they are Miss Shen and Miss Feng, who came to Beicheng with you."

Xia Yanqing nodded to Xia Anhe.

Upon seeing this, Xia Anhe immediately looked at Shen Baisu and Feng Yin, "Gentlemen, I have long admired your names. Hello, my name is Xia Anhe."

As he spoke, Xia Anhe, wearing military boots, strode across the thick snow and walked up to Shen Baisu and Feng Yin.

Shen Baisu reached out and shook her hand. "Hello, my name is Shen Baisu."

Seeing that Shen Baisu had already shaken hands with her, Feng Yin also reached out and shook hands with her, saying, "Feng Yin."

After speaking, Feng Yin stared at Xia Anhe with a probing look in her eyes for several seconds before finally asking, "Are you a girl?"

Xia Anhe was dressed in special attire, revealing no part of her face except her face. Her features were three-dimensional and prominent, her face was angular and distinct, and her eyes were sharp and bright. Just by looking at her appearance, Feng Yin could not tell her gender.

Feng Yin initially thought the other person was a man, but her voice sounded like a girl's, so out of curiosity she asked.

Startled by Feng Yin's sudden question, Xia Anhe paused for a moment before nodding to Feng Yin, "Yes, that's me."

Although Feng Yin had expected it, she was still somewhat surprised to hear Xia Anhe admit that she was a girl.

Upon learning Xia Anhe's gender, Feng Yin remarked, "So she really is a girl."

Because she had doubts in her heart, she asked directly. Now that she had gotten the answer she wanted, Feng Yin didn't say anything more.

Xia Anhe couldn't help but overthink after hearing Feng Yin's words. She stared at Feng Yin's delicate and beautiful face for several seconds, and subconsciously reached out to touch her own face.

However, she ultimately did not raise her hand.

Holding her gun tightly in both hands, she stood like a pine tree in the vast snowfield. With her bright eyes, she glanced at the four people whose hands were tied up by Shen Baisu and Feng Yin, and then asked them in confusion, "Gentlemen, who are these people you have tied up?"

Shen Baisu: "They are sorcerers from neighboring countries. Those people who are sick in the northern city are the work of them."

Xia Anhe: ?

Aren't the sick people in the northern part of the city sick because of an epidemic? How come...

Could it be a virus they created?

Xia An was filled with doubt, unaware of the conversation Shen Baisu and the others had just had in the lab. Beside her, Xia Yanqing, however, understood what Shen Baisu meant.

Thinking of the news he had received not long ago, Xia Yanqing boldly guessed that these sorcerers were the ones secretly sent out by the R country.

Xia Yanqing looked at Shen Baisu and asked, "Where did you find it?"

Shen Baisu looked back and pointed to a higher place, "There's a cave about a kilometer up. They're hiding there."

After saying that, Shen Baisu looked at Xia Yanqing and said, "There should be other accomplices, but my senior sister and I don't understand their language, so you will have to do the subsequent questioning."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yanqing nodded to Shen Baisu, "No problem, just tell me what you want to ask, and I'll help you find out as long as they know."

Shen Baisu nodded to him.

Beside her, Feng Yin spoke up at the right moment, rubbing her arms and saying, "Is everything over now? Can we talk about other things after we get down the mountain? It's freezing here."

Before going up the mountain, Feng Yin was not afraid of the cold.

But she had just expended a lot of spiritual energy to dispel the life-gathering array, and now she had very little spiritual energy left, and she could clearly feel the cold.

As a Mahayana cultivator, she was already this cold; her junior sister must be even colder. Therefore, Feng Yin suggested going down the mountain.

Hearing this, Xia Yanqing nodded to the two of them, "Okay." Then, he looked at Xia Anhe, "Shall we go down the mountain together?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Anhe shook his head at Xia Yanqing, "The source of the gunshots hasn't been found yet, so we can't go down the mountain. You guys go down first..."

Before Xia Anhe could finish speaking, Shen Baisu interrupted him, "Gunshots? They fired the shots." As she spoke, Shen Baisu pointed to several sorcerers.

“They have guns, four of them.” Shen Baisu said, pulling out four guns and handing them to Xia Anhe. “One for each of the four of them, they’re all yours.”

Xia Anhe subconsciously reached out and took it.

At the same time, Xia Anhe glanced at Feng Yin and Shen Baisu with concern, "They shot at you two? Are you alright?"

Shen Baisu and Feng Yin shook their heads simultaneously, "No."

Originally, Xia Yanqing also wanted to inquire about Shen Baisu and Feng Yin, but after Xia Anhe confirmed it, he didn't say anything.

After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly remembered something and asked Shen Baisu, "Where did you get your gun from?"

Shen Baisu looked at Xia Yanqing.

Xia Yanqing looked back at her and said, "I didn't see you holding that thing just now."

Shen Baisu hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to tell the truth, "Storage ring."

Xia Yanqing and others: ?

WTF?

Shen Baisu raised her hand and showed Xia Yanqing the ring on her finger. "Since you already know about cultivation, you should also know about storage rings, right?"

Xia Yanqing: "..."

I have indeed seen descriptions of storage rings in cultivation novels, but...

Do you really have this thing?
At this moment, Xia Yanqing realized once again that he had underestimated the abilities of Shen Baisu, Feng Yin, and others.

They possessed the Qiankun Ring, and yet they spoke of it so openly in front of them without any hesitation, which suggests they were absolutely confident in their ability to protect themselves.

Xia Yanqing felt that their abilities were becoming increasingly difficult to assess.

"You even have Qiankun Rings?" Xia Anhe exclaimed in surprise. She took two steps forward and grabbed Shen Baisu's hand, her eyes fixed intently on the ring on her hand. "This thing... do you sell this thing?"

She wants one of these too!
