After He Ao filled in the information and clicked send, an advertisement suddenly popped up on the page. It was software from a will notarization company that could help create and notarize wills online.
······
Accidental Compensation Website Linked to Will Notary Office
What kind of crazy thing is this advertisement?
A one-stop service, right?
But to be fair, this does hit the nail on the head. After all, once you've had an accident, nobody knows if it will happen again. People who haven't made a will might actually start thinking about making one.
He's a business genius.
He Ao clicked on the advertisement with a bit of curiosity, looked at the dense terms and conditions, and then verified his iris, fingerprint, and electronic signature.
Then the webpage got stuck on the page for filling in the heir's information, which required the heir's name and social security number.
The federal government does not issue ID cards, but almost everyone has Social Security, so Social Security numbers can be used to verify the identity of a specific person.
He cannot proceed to the next step without filling in this field.
However, Ander's parents died, he had no brothers or sisters, no wife or girlfriend, and he worked part-time while studying. He didn't get along well with his classmates and didn't even have a brother whose name he could remember.
·····
He Ao closed the software; he couldn't even think of anyone who could fill in the blank.
This is terrible.
"What's wrong?" Selena asked curiously, noticing He Ao's strange expression. "Is there anything special about that interface?"
"It's nothing, I just remembered some things."
He Ao shook his head. He suddenly realized that his own experience seemed to be similar to Ander's.
Oh, so I'm in such a bad situation too. Never mind then.

At that moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a balding middle-aged man with a scholarly appearance walked in. "Investigators, this is a big problem."
He tapped the table, and a huge photograph was projected onto the wall. It was of a thin, ashen-skinned man.
“Oh, I haven’t introduced myself yet. You must be Ander?” His gaze fell on Heo, and he smiled, extending his hand. “My name is Smith, the head of the Wilderness Operations Department, Bald Smith.”
"Hello, I'm Ander."
He Ao was a little embarrassed; it was the first time he had ever seen someone include a bald head in their self-introduction.
“I know you’re probably wondering why I call myself ‘Bald Smith,’” Smith released her hand, sat down in the chair with a smile, and looked at Selena. “It’s because when people introduce me, they always use the word ‘bald,’ so I’ve been forced to accept this title.”
Selena leaned back on the table and immediately changed the subject, "Let's get down to business."
Her initial enthusiasm for He Ao had faded considerably, replaced by a professional, cold, and meticulous demeanor.
"Mu Xiu, a native of Twilight City, was thirteen years old when a major cult ritual case broke out in Twilight City."
Smith's tone also softened as he began to recount Mu Xiu's deeds.
"That case involving the summoning of the Devil of Desire's human form?"
"Selena asked in a low voice."
“Yes, that descent of the evil god ritual covered an entire city block, killing thousands. Mu Xiu’s parents and brothers all died in that ritual,” Smith nodded and continued.
"Mu Xiu was thus provoked into becoming paranoid and insane. He gained the favor of the God of Chaos in the wilderness and became the priest of the God of Chaos. As far as we know, he once went on a killing spree in five cities, slaughtering thousands of innocent people."
"He's in Dawn City?" Selena looked at Smith with suspicion. "Where did you get that news?"
“The one you brought,” Smith switched the projection to the burly wilderness wanderer who had just been captured by Heo and Selena, “is Norkang, a minor leader of the Tam family, a wilderness wanderer family. He encountered Mu Xiu asking for directions while transporting IB-IIs to Dawn City for sale.”
Smith tapped the table, and the projected content changed again, turning into a chaotic first-person perspective.
The person in the perspective seemed to be sitting next to a car cleaning their gun when suddenly a commotion and loud gunfire erupted ahead. The person in the perspective immediately stood up, but before they could even steady themselves, a dark figure appeared in front of them.
The scene then rapidly shakes, seemingly showing the viewer being grabbed by the neck and forcefully slammed to the ground. Simultaneously, a greyish-white face, its eyes flashing red, shrouded in a black hood, appears in the frame.
Which way to Chenxi City?
His voice was frantic and deep, like a bloodthirsty beast that had been starving for a long time.
I have something to take care of, I'll finish the next chapter as soon as possible, please add it to your favorites and keep reading.

"This is footage extracted from the Nocon memory chip. This incident happened five days ago. At that time, Nocon and the others were not far from Dawn City. Even if they were walking, Mu Xiu should have reached Dawn City by now."
Smith switched the projection back to Mushu's photo page.
"Were there any photos of Mu Xiu taken at the city entrance?"
Selena asked immediately.
“As you know, those cameras are the responsibility of the city defense forces. I’ve already sent a warning to the city hall, and they will retrieve the surveillance footage from the entrances to the city. But don’t get your hopes up too high. Mu Xiu has previously disguised himself as someone else to infiltrate the city. He is a chosen one of the God of Chaos, so we can’t let our guard down.” Smith nodded.
"I have already sent a notification to the consortium. They will open up some of the surveillance footage to the technical department for analysis to see if they can find Mu Xiu's whereabouts."
Upon hearing the mention of the conglomerate, Selena's expression visibly darkened, but she didn't dwell on the matter. Instead, she asked, "So, what do you need us to do?"
“There are always some places in this city that are ‘unsurveilled’,” Smith tapped the table, and a series of photos appeared on the projector.
“Casinos, red-light districts, and some underground boxing rings—judging from previous cases, Mu Xiu has been committing mass murders in these places. The Criminal Investigation Department has deployed manpower in most of these areas, but there is one crucial place where manpower is still insufficient.”
The projection on the wall instantly transformed into a magnificent golden gate, above which hung a large, resplendent sign that read, 'Crown Casino'.
“The Crown Casino is the largest casino in Dawn City. The technical department analyzed Mu Xiu’s past movements and believes that this is the most likely place he will go this time. The criminal investigation team is still too weak for Mu Xiu, so I hope to entrust this task to you. What do you think?”
Smith looked at Selena.
“Okay,” Selena stood up. “So our mission is to guard the entrance of the Crown Casino? For how long?”
“He usually commits a crime within seven days of entering the city. After he kills someone and sacrifices him to the god of chaos, he will receive the god of chaos’s blessing and instantly escape to the wilderness. So we must catch him or kill him before he commits a crime.”
Smith replied.
“Okay, I got it,” Selena waved to the bewildered Heo. “Ander, let’s go.”
"Mu Xiu is Talent Sequence 51: Thug, a D-rank powerhouse. Do you think Selena can stop him? Her prosthetic body strength is only barely close to D-rank, right?"
After Selena and Heo left, the projection on the wall changed to Werner, who was smoking a cigarette and leaning against a closed door, holding a revolver in his hand, seemingly on some mission.
Before Smith could answer, Wiener slammed into the door behind him.
"Open the door, FBI."
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open.
The people inside seemed to realize something was wrong and were about to draw their guns when Wiener raised his revolver and fired six shots in quick succession, followed by the sound of a body falling to the ground.
"Boss?" a voice came from off-camera. "He's already killed him?"
"Fuck it,"
"Weiner frowned. "What do you mean by 'kill them'? Didn't you see how fiercely they resisted? Didn't you see them pointing their guns? If they pointed their guns, I could have been shot dead."
This ruthless, cross-city gang—if you don't kill them, are you just going to let them live a comfortable life in prison for a few years before coming out to harm people again?
“Come on, let me teach you how to write a report,” he said, stepping out of the camera’s view. “During this mission, the gangsters fought back fiercely and refused to surrender despite the patient persuasion of our investigators. We were forced to retaliate and killed six people on the spot. There were no survivors.”
As he spoke, he cursed, "Those damned council lords, what kind of lousy laws did they pass? They don't even have the death penalty..."
As Wiener's cursing subsided, Smith cut off the communication, leaned back in his chair, stared at the clean white wall, and fell into thought.
Why did Mu Xiu suddenly come to Dawn City...?
-
In the elevator, Selena didn't press the button to return to the ground floor, but instead pressed the fifth basement level.
"Selena, who is the Witch of Desire?"
Standing behind Selena, He Ao asked with some curiosity. He only vaguely understood what Selena and Smith had just learned, so he didn't dare to interrupt.
“One evil god, the god of chaos, and the god of knowledge—these are all evil gods.”
Selena casually replied, "Most of them are depraved and insane, and they lure ordinary people into becoming their henchmen."
"Evil gods? Are there any good gods?"
He pressed on, a question he had wanted to ask for a long time.
Selena glanced at He Ao in surprise. Evil exists relative to good; it's a subjective term. If there are evil gods, there should be corresponding good gods, but few people can grasp this concept.
He's question is actually this: if there are evil gods who can communicate with people, are there righteous gods who can communicate with people?
Just then, the elevator arrived, and Selena stepped out. The fifth basement level was a huge underground parking garage. "No, it's possible that our level is not yet accessible."
She gently raised her hand, and a soft sound rang out in the darkness. Then, with the roar of an engine, a fiery red convertible sports car, as if riding on flames, stopped in front of the two of them.
"Shall we go?" Selena opened the car door and got into the driver's seat. "Want to go for a drive?"
-
Thus, this scene unfolded in Dawn City: a blonde, aloof, and mature woman, accompanied by a tall young man in combat gear, sped through the city's streets in a roaring sports car.
He Ao felt a sudden dizziness before the car came to a stop.
"arrive."
Selena got out of the car and stretched comfortably.
"Aren't you sure you won't be speeding if you do that?"
He felt the ground shaking.
"It's okay, I only drive on highways, and I'm only driving at the maximum speed limit. I won't be speeding."
After running a lap, Selena looked radiant and comfortably did a stretch.
She has full-body prosthetics, so even if the car flips over, she can hold it up and run without getting hurt, so she's not worried at all when speeding.
He Ao swayed as he got out of the car, feeling as if his feet were stepping on cotton.
Selena looked at He Ao's expression and smiled slyly. Who doesn't have a mischievous streak?
