Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 219 The Name of the Heir

It was only at this point that Han Su understood why the young doctor from the seawall city had come to Qinggang.

Ultimately, I was a complete novice when it came to laboratories and such, and I didn't understand anything about the ins and outs of them. But after Rong Qi talked about the secrecy and independence of the laboratory, I became somewhat interested.

Perhaps I'll need to use this lab a lot in the future?
Now that the black briefcase is in my hands, there will probably be a lot of things that need to be authenticated in the future.

Of course, putting aside the things that need to be identified, if we were to actually kidnap that Secretary No. 2 in the future, wouldn't we also need a place to hold the hostage?

"That old gentleman from Dingxiang Mansion?"

Upon hearing Rong Qiyue's words, Wei Lan became slightly curious and seemed to be deep in thought.

Rong Qiyue immediately became excited and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, there are quite a few members of the Qinggang Hidden School, but they are all led by this old monster. It is said that he is already 170 years old, and his seniority is terrifying."

"By the way, the Queen's Organization has always had a wide network of connections. Is it possible for you to help me get through to them?"

“I didn’t ask for it for nothing. In fact, the relics that the Magic Box Group brought back this time were meant to be given to him as a stepping stone. I even brought a letter that my grandfather wrote to him. However, he won’t even see me now…”

"..."

Wei Lan smiled wryly upon hearing this: "It's not just you. When I first returned to Qinggang, the first thing I did was visit him. However, I couldn't resist taking some things from his Dingxiang Mansion. After that, I was not allowed to visit him."

Rong Qiyue slapped his thigh: "Sigh!"

Amidst their sighs of regret, Han Su slowly raised his head and said to Rong Qiyue, "I can give it a try!"

Rong Qiyue was stunned upon hearing this: "Huh?"

Han Su said, "I can try to speak to the Dingxiang Mansion on your behalf and see if I can help you get what you want."

Rong Qiyue was shocked: "Why would he listen to you?"

Han Su did not answer; of course, the owner of the Dingxiang Mansion would not listen to him.

But what if it's the heir?

The information left in the blood of the white corpse flashed through his mind, including a moment when a white corpse went to the Lilac Mansion to try to awaken the living bronze puppet and confirm his identity as the heir.

The white corpse failed, but what if it were me?
After a moment's thought, he made a decision and said to Rong Qiyue and Wei Lan, "Give me the information you know about Dingxiang Mansion, and I will try to put in a good word. Don't ask anything else, just wait for the results."

Seeing his confident demeanor, Rong Qiyue's heart skipped a beat, and he gave Han Su another deep look.

At first glance, it seems quite ordinary, but once it opens its mouth, it's either imperial writing, a mysterious item of similar caliber, or a greeting to the Lilac Mansion...

If all else fails, next time you meet him, kneel down and speak to him.

With the general plan settled, Rong Qiyue spent the rest of the time waiting for news from Dingxiang Mansion, and after privately exchanging the Emperor's writings, he helped Han Su decipher them.

The pot-headed guy is all about participation. Although it's clear he's very interested in Bai Senmang, Han Su can't just hand the job over to him right now.

As for Wei Lan, Han Su kept her until the end, saying, "You've also noticed that this time when we returned to the castle, I rescued another child. His name is Lu Neng, and he lives in Qinggang South City."

"If you have time, could you help me find him?"

"Already looking for it."

Upon hearing this, Wei Lan smiled and said, "After I realized that this world had been reshaped once again, I compared the current kidnapping case information with the information in my memory."

"I knew it was him who came out this time, so I asked him a little about it."

"But you'd better be prepared. Although I haven't had time to do the final confirmation yet, this guy doesn't seem like someone to mess with..."

"..."

Han Su was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and then smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Wei Lan smiled slightly, his eyes like bright crescent moons, and said, "A fanatical follower of a mysterious organization, the high priest of the bronze mask, and once became a son-in-law of the Sea Man Town. He is keen on organizing various mysterious sacrificial rituals and can be called an expert in the worship of mysterious forces."

"A mysterious organization?"

Han Su was quite surprised to hear this: "Good heavens, we already have one person in jail, and now another one who worships the mysterious has jumped out?"

Those people from mysterious organizations are in a situation that's no better than being in prison; they're all lunatics...

"Wait until I finish speaking."

Wei Lan laughed and said, "Members of the mysterious organization are all very devout in their worship of what they believe in, and he is an especially devout one, though perhaps a little too devout..."

Han Su was somewhat surprised: "What do you mean?"

Wei Lan said, "He was so devout that he brought the things his organization worshipped back to his own home."

Han Su's expression immediately turned to astonishment: "?"

Wei Lan laughed and said, "He didn't just move one. When he joined the Bronze Mask organization, he stole the Bronze Mask. When he went to the Sea Man Town, he stole the merman coffin that the people there had been serving in history."

"He's obsessed with organizing all sorts of mysterious sacrificial rituals because it's only when these rituals are performed that the believers bring out the real items for people to worship, and then he..."

"..."

Han Su was truly stunned this time, and it took him a while to say, "It's something he could do..."

"Are you sure he's still alive?" "..."

Wei Lan shook his head and smiled, "I have too many enemies, so it's hard to be sure, but I will find him as soon as possible."

Han Su could only nod, thinking that such a guy must have been beaten to death long ago, or he must be hiding better than a rat.

However, based on these experiences, the friends I brought out from the castle, even if they are separated by thousands of miles, will always be attracted like a magnet after I return to reality, and will appear by my side for some unknown reason.

This also led Han Su to suspect that a mysterious force might have prevented him from escaping and altered everything in the castle.

Could it be that similar mysterious forces exist in reality?
Watching Wei Lan disappear into the television set, the penthouse began to revert to its original state. Han Su sat down first and pondered a few details.

Lilac Mansion...

The information left in the white corpse's blood resolved some of my doubts, but also gave rise to several ideas that I wanted to verify, and the Lilac Mansion was the first one on my list.

I am indeed very weak right now. In terms of strength, I am basically the weakest link in this small team.

But what if this status as an heir could be used to one's advantage?

How significant is Dingxiang Mansion in Qinggang?
He waited a moment and received the information sent by Wei Lan, all of which were related to Dingxiang Mansion.

"An old monster who has lived for nearly two hundred years, a nominal teacher to several secret schools of thought, and a former member of the Eastern District Circuit Court..."

"One of the legendary owners of the seven red chairs in the Qinggang Council Chamber?"

"..."

As a newcomer to this mysterious world, Han Su hadn't even heard of some of the terms.

However, he did know that the seven red chairs in the Qinggang Council Hall symbolized status within the mysterious circle.

However, Wei Lan guessed that he might not know, so he added a small note: the red chair is not the highest-ranking chair in Qinggang.

The highest grade is black, and there are only three of them.

After carefully reviewing the information, Han Su made a decision in secret.

Looking out the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, night had enveloped this abnormally bustling city, and he softly chanted the incantation:

"Twenty-seven lives, all must be paid for with blood!"

"..."

As Han Su recited the code, his own spirit was activated, and through the "Will of Copper," he influenced the jar of copper-colored blood in the black briefcase. Now, the jar of copper-colored blood had been replaced with a glass bottle, and the bottle opening was deliberately not tightened.

The suitcase was placed upright under the coffee table. As copper-colored blood gushed out, it trickled out through the seams of the black suitcase, defying gravity as it flew out of the building.

Moving silently through the shadows of the city.

……

……

At the same time that Han Su and others convened their special meeting, in Qinggang, Zhongcheng, the council hall.

Zhang Chiguo carried out his mission, leaving Miss Ai in that heavily guarded containment room. When he came out and saw the smile on the man's face, he didn't feel the same sense of relief he used to feel after completing a mission.

"I have done what I was supposed to do."

He didn't intend to leave with his questions, but instead looked up at the person in front of him and said, "But I also have some questions that I'd like to ask the people above."

"My previous kidnapping case involving the castle was rejected, deemed utter nonsense. Now, can someone explain to me why, during this crisis of the Mother Tree, a child connected to the previous kidnapping case has appeared?"

"..."

This was the first time he had asked these questions in an interrogative tone, and the atmosphere in the room became somewhat oppressive for a moment.

When Zhang Chiguo asked the question, the man seemed to have been prepared. He simply raised his hand, and his assistant handed him a document.

He then handed it to Zhang Chiguo: "Here is a document that I have just obtained permission to make public."

"We have everything we know about your question."

"In addition to sealing Miss Ai, there is another special mission for you this time, personally issued by Secretary No. 5. I hope you can accept it."

"..."

Zhang Chiguo raised his head slightly and said, "What?"

"This time, Qinggang was in a very passive position. It seemed like a coincidence and a change, but in reality, everything was being calculated and driven by someone. Although these people's plans could not hurt Qinggang's foundation, they had one of their trump cards destroyed."

The man's expression was cold and stern: "But the other side did leave some clues."

"The council has now grasped that everything started with Song Chushi, and he will inevitably return to Qinggang soon, so..."

"Our plan is to gather the four kings of the original special operations team and kill him when he returns to Qinggang."
