Gao Wu: I became the minor villain that the protagonist was about to destroy.

As night fell, after Lei Laohu returned Lei Hao's body, he dispatched all his men to search for the murderer, and the entire Luoxia City descended into chaos.

Meanwhile, in Luoxia City, inside an abandoned air-raid shelter in the city center.

"How's it going? Have you found him?"

"Reporting to the chief, we haven't found him. According to the news, after that person killed Lei Laohu's second son in the secret realm, there has been no further news of him. The Lei family has also sent all their manpower to search for that guy."

"Hahahaha!" The leader suddenly burst into laughter.

"Very well, let the entire city of Luoxia descend into chaos. Only then will we have a chance! We can't let anyone but us find that guy; he might be the key to breaking this deadlock!"

"Knock knock knock." A knocking sound came from outside the iron gate.

The leader at the head of the group slowly frowned. Meetings were not to be disturbed unless there was an extremely urgent matter.

"Enter."

"What is it?"

"Report to the chief: A man has come from outside. He says he is the person we are looking for."

"Hmm?" The leader was puzzled.

"Take that person aside, I'll be right there."

"Yes, Chief."

After the gate closed, the man beside the leader spoke up: "Leader, could this be a trap? Has our location been exposed?"

"That's unlikely. Our organization has always been hidden in the shadows, and very few people know about us. Even that guy from the Black Dragon Society only sees us as an underground dark force."

The leader pondered for a moment: "Let's go, come with me to see that person. If it's true, then even the heavens are on our side."

Inside a room in an air-raid shelter.

The door slowly opened, and the leader saw a person dressed in a black robe sitting on a tattered sofa.

After the leader sat down in front, he asked, "Who are you?"

The man's lips curled slightly: "Aren't you looking for me? Why do you need to ask who I am?"

"How can you prove that you are the person we are looking for?"

The man didn't say anything but simply threw out a sign.

The sign clearly bears the character "昊" (Hao), while the other side of the token bears the character "雷" (Lei).

Clearly, this is Lei Hao's badge, and also proof of Lei's family status.

The moment the leader saw the sign, he could hardly contain his joy.

"How did you find this place?!"

"It's very simple. I know that everyone in Luoxia City is looking for me, and you are among them. I have chosen you."

"So I followed your team to this place, and I must say, this place is quite...unique."

"I didn't quite believe at first that an underground organization could be reduced to such a state of destitution. But after observing for nearly an hour and noticing a considerable number of people coming and going, I became certain that this was your base."

"They chose us?!"

"Hahaha, this is really interesting. We're always the ones choosing people, this is the first time I've ever been chosen. This is the first time I've ever experienced this feeling."

"Tell me, what exactly is your purpose?"

"Of course I'll join you. With my current identity, I can no longer enter the secret realm. The only way for me to become stronger is to find a suitable organization."

The leader asked in confusion, "Unable to enter the secret realm? With your abilities, even the people from the Secret Realm Management Bureau couldn't do anything to you. But what I'm more curious about is how you managed to evade their thorough inspection today."

"It's a secret. All you need to know is that, from the outside world's perspective, I'm already a dead man."

"Since that's the case, then I don't need to ask any more questions. I can only congratulate you; this may be the best decision you've ever made in your life."

"However, it seems that your strength is only at the sixth level of the Awakening Realm. Your aura is not strong enough, and you have not broken through to the extreme realm. Your meridian talent does not seem to be very strong. It seems that your strength lies in your special characteristics."

The man in black asked疑惑地, "What, do I need to disclose my special characteristics to join your organization?"

"Of course, you need to tell us your characteristics. If they are of no value, you may only become an outer member. If your characteristics are extremely strong and are noticed by the higher-ups, you may receive a lot of resources to cultivate you."

The man in black nodded, his body slightly bent, and the leader also turned slightly to the side. When he heard about the other party's characteristics, his pupils gradually widened in shock, and he looked at the man in front of him with an incredulous gaze.

Inside the Secret Realm Management Bureau

Chen Yi and the others held records of all the bullies from their three high schools.

However, most of them were suppressed by money and transferred to other campuses, and no similar incidents have occurred since.

When Chen Yi flipped through the files of No. 2 Middle School, he saw a file named Yuwen Lin.

"Yuwen Lin? That name seems familiar!"

Then Chen Yi took out another death file and began to look through it.

"Yuwen Lin... was one of the six people who died today. Only his severed hand was found at the scene, but the rest of his body was not found inside the demon wolf."

"Did you see Yuwen Lin's body while you were searching the area?"

A teammate spoke up: "Captain Chen did not find any other bodies of Lu Feng, but apart from finding Lu Yuwenlin's severed hand at the scene, according to the blood analysis, the large pool of blood around it basically came from Yuwenlin alone, and the total amount of blood is already three-quarters of the total amount of blood of an 18-year-old boy."

"With such a significant loss of blood, even if the victim was an Awakened, there was no chance of survival. Therefore, they were presumed dead. We are still conducting a large-scale search in the vicinity but have not found any other traces of blood."

"Furthermore, according to the traces found during the investigation, there was a small amount of Yuwen Lin's blood in one place, which may have been because he was being bullied by Lei Hao and the others at the time."

Another psionic vigilant frowned and said unhappily, "Damn these guys, they're really beasts. Yuwen Lin was probably tortured by them. According to the information I've gathered, even after Yuwen Lin became an Awakened, he was still bullied by Lei Hao and the others, and they beat him even more severely."

"Perhaps Yuwen Lin was played to death by them, and his body was used to feed wolves."

At this moment, Chen Yi shouted, "Alright, these matters are not our concern. What we need to do now is find the murderer."

Chen Yi then selected four students with good talent in pulse diagnosis who were still being bullied. Almost every school had one such student, and including Lu Feng, who had already passed away, there were two such students at No. 2 Middle School.

"Everyone has worked hard these past few days. Go back and get a good night's sleep. Tomorrow morning, go out in pairs for questioning."

"Yes, Captain Chen!"
