High-tech invasion, I can see the future

Chapter 67 The Canal and the Auction, Director Yang at the Entrance

Seeing the large amount of red liquid inside the pipe, Bai Yu took a sniff and noticed it had a herbal scent, not a bloody smell.

It is no ordinary thing.

"Highly likely"

Realizing this, Bai Yu quickly took some samples.

I already have a general idea in mind: let the captain find the target reasonably by following the clue in the sewers, instead of conducting a large-scale investigation and alerting the enemy.

"This line of thinking should be fine."

"After all, in my past life, we could even detect which household a toxic substance came from by looking at it in the sewers. The technology in this world, having withstood the test of countless cases, is definitely not bad."

The torrential rain continued unabated.

The roadside has accumulated more than five centimeters of shallow water.

Bai Yu and the other seven members, naturally escorted by two powerful members of the Li family, planned to return to the Investigation Bureau.

In the car.

Li Yunbin said, "Such a big thing happened today, so I'll stay at the station for the next few days and wait for news. It'll also be a good time for me to consolidate my strength."

Liu Feifei clenched her little fists and said in strong agreement, "That's right! That's right! Today was supposed to be a holiday."

As she said this, she put her hands on her hips, puffed out her cheeks, and looked at Bai Yu.

Bai Yu could only turn his head away, look out the window, and awkwardly touch his nose.

Looking at the heavy rain, he couldn't help but say, "By the way, Captain, this rain is probably largely due to the moisture the merfolk were channeling earlier. It's not going to stop anytime soon. It might cause flooding."

"Speaking of which, we'll definitely be facing various natural disasters like floods in the future. Is there any way to deal with that?"

Li Yunbin thought for a moment and said, "Tianhai City does experience frequent heavy rains, and the existing drainage facilities should be sufficient in theory."

"However, for the long term, the authorities plan to build a canal on the Qingyun River to connect it to Qingcheng City in the north."

Bai Yu asked in confusion, "Qingcheng City?"

"If I remember correctly, the distance is about 200 kilometers, with mountains in between."

Li Yunbin nodded: "Yes! The project is massive and will require at least 100 billion yuan."

"Speaking of which, there was an auction recently because of this, on the 31st of this month."

"The auction mainly consists of cultivation items, ancient god advancement materials, and special items that cannot be detected."

"Most of the buyers are wealthy people from Tianhai City and the surrounding area. The auction is generally semi-charitable in nature, and the auction price is often three to five times the actual price of the item."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu's eyes lit up.

Finally, we've come to this auction! He remembered that there was a golden page at this auction.

If the captain hadn't said anything, he would have wanted to ask him himself.

Seeing Bai Yu's interested expression, Li Yunbin smiled and said, "I was planning to go take a look. Do you want to come?"

"Of course! I've never been to an auction before, I'm curious to see what it's like."

"Just tell me what you want to film. Consider it a loan; with your abilities, you'll definitely be able to pay it back."

"Okay!"

After a period of quiet.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Liu Feifei asked, "Has there been any news about the Dragon Ball?"

Upon hearing this, the others, though expressionless, could guess what was going on and were eager to see what would happen!

Since the captain had made so many arrangements for this matter, Bai Yu naturally didn't hide anything and took it out directly.

The bead wasn't very big, only about 20 centimeters in diameter. It was light blue, and there seemed to be some unknown energy moving inside. You could see a small dragon coiled up, as if it were sleeping.

Liu Feifei looked at the little white dragon and liked it very much.

Their voices softened involuntarily: "So this is a dragon. It's so cute!"

Bai Yu also lowered his voice, "I just don't know how strong they are."

"The dragon is definitely not weak!"

Since the little dragon didn't make any moves, Bai Yu took it back after watching it for a while.

What's rather peculiar is that Bai Yu, possessing some unknown ability, was able to collect the Dragon Balls just like he collected the golden pages!

This is also why the Flood Dragon Pearl was not exposed.

After driving for a while, the water on the road became deeper and deeper.

In some low-lying areas, the water has reached waist level.

Bai Yu, seeing that he was about to return to the Investigation Bureau, touched the bottle of red sewage from the sewer that he kept in his chest.

Seeing Bai Yu take out a strange item, Liu Feifei asked curiously, "What is this?"

"The sewage we saw when we surfaced."

"Sewage? Why would you install this? That area is under the jurisdiction of Yundong District. We just mentioned the sewage issue to them."

"Because...this might be related to the person who made the Sin Blood Potion."

Upon hearing this, Li Yunbin accidentally slammed on the brakes instead of the accelerator. Fortunately, it was raining heavily and there weren't many cars on the road, so he slowed down and drove slowly.

Li Yunbin's tone was somewhat agitated: "Are you sure?"

"Hmm. I studied that sinful blood yesterday. It seems to have some connection to this one I have."

Hearing this, Li Yunbin frowned: "There is no sin blood energy in this liquid. I can sense that."

"It's just that there's a connection. For example, this is a medicinal ingredient used to neutralize the energy of the Sinful Blood Potion, making it more tolerable for ordinary people?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

They all knew that Bai Yu had special abilities.

What you say may not sound very logical, but it is very likely to be the correct answer!

Thinking of this, Li Yunbin said, "I'll have someone trace the sewers to find out which factory or residential building discharged the pollutant."

"That's what I think too. It's best to keep things quiet and discreet. This person is likely important, so we mustn't alert them."

"Okay! I'll arrange it."

After saying that, Li Yunbin took a deep breath and exhaled heavily.

They investigated for months without much success. But now Bai Yu is telling him that they've actually found a key figure in the potion's production!

What's even more outrageous is that everyone saw this clue, but no one paid attention to it, thinking that it should be handed over to the Environmental Protection Bureau.

Could this kid really be a genius at solving cases?

Bureau of Investigation.

Li Yunbin seemed to have received a message. He glanced at it briefly and then said, "Elder Yang's side has been attacked. The attacker is the merman leader."

After joining the Investigation Bureau, Bai Yu learned about the fishmen.

Both the merman priest and the merman leader are figures at the Spirit Sea Realm! The priest's status is even higher.

Bai Yu: "Is everything alright?"

"no."

Upon hearing Li Yunbin's unusually calm and confident tone, Bai Yu instantly understood.

Li Yunbin was better prepared than he had imagined!

"They even sent a Spirit Sea Realm expert. It feels like they're not just helping me, but the Li family has also set a trap?"

After a brief conversation, the group was about to disperse when they discovered that Director Yang was standing at the entrance of the main building, quietly watching them with a satisfied smile.

"Director Yang!" "Hello, Director Yang!"

Director Yang smiled with a hint of relief and said, "You seem to have accomplished something significant, resolving a major crisis."

"Good job! You did a great job."

After saying that, without waiting for anyone's reply, Director Yang turned and went back into the building.

The other team members couldn't help but glance at Bai Yu.

"??? Why are you all getting involved? Don't you all know that?"

Li Yunbin speculated, "With Director Yang's special abilities, he must have seen more things that we didn't."

Bai Yu's heart stirred.

That's true! If the fish-men were to get their hands on this white dragon, what would become of them?

Subsequently, Li Yunbin rented a cultivation room within the Investigation Bureau and began formal cultivation.

During his trip back to the Li family, he spent most of his time arranging today's operations, neglecting even the most important matter of cultivation.

Bai Yu, on the other hand, ran wildly in the rain to complete the 30-kilometer task!

The heavy rain in Tianhai City continues unabated, with some areas already flooded and emergency response measures underway.

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

Room 401.

Bai Yu was sitting cross-legged at this moment, circulating his Qi through the body.

[Obtained 1 Gold Intelligence Fragment]

"Phew~"

"Golden!"

However, based on probability alone, it would take 111 days to obtain a complete piece of gold information.

During this process, a large amount of intelligence value also needs to be stored.

"Beep~"

When Bai Yu heard his phone ring, he opened it to take a look.

It was actually a message from Professor Wang Wen.

"I heard the school is having a party on the evening of the 27th, are you planning to go?"

Bai Yu was a little puzzled. Why would Professor Wang Wen ask her this?

Why are you asking that?

"Just tell me if you're going or not."

"This rain is expected to last for three days! The party will probably be canceled. If the weather is good and it proceeds as planned, I might be able to go."

"Okay, I understand."

After the conversation, Bai Yu still couldn't understand Professor Wang Wen's intentions.

"A strange and eccentric personality."

"Never mind that, let's get back to our business."

He took a deep breath and looked at the information whose keyword was "talisman pen".

Purchase confirmed!

Hope is a good thing.
