Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

Tang Li and others were massacred by He Li.

The news caused a huge stir as soon as it was sent back.

But what followed was even more explosive...

Tang Li and his group are all strange creatures...

Upon hearing this news, many high-ranking officials of the Rongcheng Special Bureau, including Hong Tian, ​​felt their heads buzzing. They weren't stupid, and they could naturally realize how terrifying this matter was.

"Tang Li and the others are all strange... and no one has noticed for so long."

"What about the other investigators?"

"Are there also those who have been replaced by monsters?"

Someone asked this question in the meeting room.

Hong Tian didn't give anyone a chance to speak, and said seriously, "Immediately order a re-examination of all investigators. They must be brought back for the supernatural power verification."

"Even those without supernatural powers must investigate thoroughly; I must uncover all the strange and supernatural phenomena!!!"

Hong Tian was really anxious this time.

So many strange things have infiltrated the Special Affairs Bureau...

Without a doubt, the higher-ups will definitely deal with him.

However, just as he finished arranging this matter, someone raised an even more troublesome issue: whether He Li was truly a monster...

"Director Hong, let's not talk about Tang Li and the others beforehand."

"Even if we were to investigate, it would take time."

"But what can we do? According to the information Wenyu and the others sent back, that guy is very likely a monster."

"It's right in front of us, and it's a very powerful monster!"

"If we don't find a way to deal with him..."

"Deal with it?" Hong Tian looked up with a cold face.

"The suggestion is easy, but how do we handle it? Right now, we only have some doubts about him."

"Dealing with him without evidence? Even if you did have evidence, what makes you think you could take him down? You all know how incredibly powerful that kid is."

"Still thinking of dealing with him?"

"Who will go? You? Or him?"

Hong Tian's gaze swept over everyone present.

Upon being met with his gaze, those people lowered their heads with grim expressions and did not respond to his words.

Indeed, He Li is incredibly talented.

What use are these worthless scoundrels to deal with He Li? They might just be wiped out. Besides... what if it turns out He Li isn't a monster after all?

If things escalate, their Rongcheng Special Bureau might have to disband on the spot.

However, He Li cannot be ignored...

"Director Hong, although we don't have any evidence yet..."

"But we can't guarantee he's not a monster, can we?"

"It's too dangerous for him to stay in Chengdu!"

"Yeah, I always felt that kid was so young and hadn't been in the Special Affairs Bureau for long, yet his combat power was so incredible, it made me feel like he wasn't a normal person..."

"Now it seems I was right."

"That's right, what normal person would be so vicious?"

"Even if Tang Li and his group are monsters, who could be so heartless as to slaughter them all when they look like humans?"

"Not to mention his ability to devour monsters raw..."

"That's not normal!"

Everyone started talking at once.

Hong Tian sighed inwardly.

He Li is indeed in danger, but we can't touch him.

What can we do?

As he was pondering this, someone spoke up: "Since we can't deal with He Li directly, why not just send him away? After all, isn't he quite the busybody who likes to travel across cities to investigate cases?"

"We'll help him find a case..."

"Then get him away, so at least if he really stops pretending and starts acting recklessly..."

"Then our Chengdu area won't be affected!"

"Of course, it also needs to be reported to Kyoto."

"If He Li's identity is proven to be supernatural, we might even be able to get some credit for it."

Shifting the blame eastward? Hong Tian raised an eyebrow.

It's a bit harsh, but it's useful.

"For now, this is the only way!"

After thinking for a moment, Hong Tian nodded, and soon, a report about He Li's actions in Rongcheng and the possibility that he was a monster was sent to the Special Bureau of Kyoto.

Although those in Kyoto didn't fully believe it, they were still somewhat suspicious, so they contacted Li Qing...

"A ghost? That's impossible!"

"I know He Li's situation very well."

"Besides, given his ruthlessness towards monsters, even if he were a monster, he would be on our side."

"Not to mention he isn't..."

During the video call, Li Qing explained.

After thinking for a moment, he added, "By the way, I think I have some clues about the matter in Rongcheng where people say his soul is emitting golden light, and I have a video here that I can show you."

"Although I can't be sure, I feel..."

"He Li may be ascending to the realm of God."

"His soul was glowing with golden light..."

"Perhaps that's one way to explain it!"

"As for his twisted soul? That's even easier to explain; his supernatural power is to transform into a hungry ghost..."

Hearing Li Qing's explanation, the high-ranking officials of the Kyoto Special Affairs Bureau who were connected with Li Qing were somewhat suspicious until Li Qing sent a video, after which they opened it and studied it carefully.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it, when you see He Li being worshipped by everyone and his whole body starting to emit golden light...

Even the bigwigs in Kyoto were dumbfounded.

"This is???"

Deputy Director Zheng Guo stared intently at the video feed.

Li Qing explained, "He Li cultivates the 'Great Nuo Ode' and is the only one who has successfully cultivated it. That technique is a spirit-refining method, but no one has succeeded in cultivating it before..."

He explained the connection between He Li's supernatural abilities and the cultivation techniques he might have.

Then he spoke again...

"The emergence of spiritual energy has changed the world."

"The future of humanity is also beginning to change unpredictably."

"Becoming a god is not impossible!"

"He Li today is very likely... due to the uniqueness of his cultivation technique and his own supernatural abilities, coupled with the influence of everyone's worship, he is walking an unknown path to godhood..."

"If he truly succeeds, then what will our Great Xia have to fear from a massive invasion from another dimension in the future?"

"Our Great Xia will surely triumph!"

"Even a counter-offensive, colonizing other dimensions!!!"

Towards the end, Li Qing became somewhat agitated.

The Kyoto executives also clenched their fists.

Counterattack on other dimensions, colonize other dimensions...

If they could really achieve that, then their Great Xia would not only become the world's number one superpower, but would also be able to lead all of humanity into the universe and compete with many other planes.

This is... a huge deal!

Even Zheng Guo, who had seen many storms, had to take several deep breaths to calm down.

"We understand!"

"From what I can see, He Li doesn't seem like a monster."

"His changes all have reasonable explanations."

"We cannot reject, suppress, or even harm the pillars of our Great Xia just because of doubt or strange words!" Li Qing's lips curled up as Zheng Guo said this.

It's stable, completely stable.

With Zheng Guo's words, He Li's suspicions were cleared.

Not only has the suspicion been cleared, but today's incident has made Kyoto realize He Li's importance and uniqueness, after all, he is the first person to take the plunge and try something new.

Kyoto will definitely treasure him.

Any action he takes from now on...

As long as they don't act recklessly, they will most likely receive support from Kyoto back then.

Thinking of this, Li Qing couldn't hide his smile.

"Damn it, those idiots in Chengdu!"

"I was thinking about how to find an opportunity to enhance He Li's status in Kyoto."

"And then you turned around and handed the opportunity to us?"

"Heh heh, that old codger Hong Tian probably thinks He Li really has a problem and is thinking about how to get away from him right now. You'll regret it when Kyoto issues the order."

"You'll be crying and screaming then..."

"He Li won't pay any attention to you anymore!"

Li Qing thought to himself.

He suddenly felt a sense of anticipation, hoping that after Hong Tian and the others gave He Li the cold shoulder, they would suddenly receive a notification from Kyoto confirming that He Li was not a monster and that he would be given more resources...

Even with more privileges and support...

The "wonderful" expressions on those old guys' faces...

Meanwhile, in Rongcheng, He Li and his group had successfully left the Silver Sand Ruins and arrived at the Rongcheng Special Bureau, where they were being watched from a distance by the crowd, ready to receive their reward for handling Qin Yuan.

After all, this is such a big case...

Chengdu can't just leave without giving anything in return, can it?

Who knows, these people will probably say nice things to me and give me gifts again, just like last time.

He Li was secretly pleased with how many good things he could get.

However, once they entered the Chengdu Special Bureau...

They found that no one was there to greet them.

Even many investigators looked at them strangely, with a strong sense of vigilance and distance, which immediately made He Li and his team frown.

However, He Li had already guessed the situation.

It was probably because of his killing of Tang Li and his group, and the influence of Long Xiang's previous words...

When I thought of this...

He Li suddenly became a little curious.

What will these short-sighted fools in Chengdu do after they suspect they are really monsters?
