Chapter 118 Tracking

The underground parking lot of the residential complex next to Ele.me delivery service.

As the exit of the emergency staircase, this area naturally cannot be locked, so there are more than a dozen miniature surveillance cameras around it, with overlapping coverage, theoretically leaving no blind spots.

However, its effectiveness is greatly reduced when facing supernatural beings who can become invisible, as the opponent can even conceal their heat.

However, breathing and heartbeat cannot be concealed.

Hearing the direction of the sound, Shen Qing moved, but in accordance with the [Yan Yufei] entry, he made no sound at all.

After leaving the parking lot, seeing that the inconspicuous "Ele.me Delivery" sign behind him had completely disappeared, Xiao Dongyang ran for several blocks before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

"Damn it, where did this monster come from?"

Looking at his arm, which was still hanging limply, and feeling the constant pain, he couldn't help but show fear as he thought of his previous fight with Shen Qing.

However, an eighth-rank cultivator instantly killed him, a seventh-rank cultivator.

Even with Yuan energy protecting them, it was useless. The difference in power between the two was at least double. This was an eighth-grade?

Fortunately, his opponent was focused on gathering intelligence and didn't kill him outright, which gave him a chance to escape.

Otherwise, he's probably no better than his two subordinates.

It blew his body apart. This wasn't human; it was a demon, a Rakshasa!

However, what this young Japanese man didn't know was that the person he called a demon was right behind him, clinging to the wall of the road like a gecko.

Compared to Lu Tianzhuang, a seventh-rank official, this Japanese man, although skilled in concealment, was not on the same level in any aspect.

He was completely unaware that he was being followed.

However, being a spy, he remained highly vigilant and did not return directly to the base.

Instead, it started circling around the city, turning left and right, through alleys and overpasses, until it suddenly stopped in a secluded alley.

Shen Qing also stopped.

But he had some doubts: had he already been discovered? After all, the other party also possessed stealth abilities, and it was hard to say whether they had any counter-tracking methods.

If all else fails, we'll have to bring them back. We can't just let them escape if we can't find their hideout.

Just then, the Japanese man suddenly appeared.

He stole a set of clothes from a nearby clothesline, walked out of the alley, openly hailed a taxi, and disappeared into the night.

Shen Qing quickly followed.

Fortunately, the distance wasn't far, and there was a lot of traffic on the main road. The taxi was moving slowly with frequent stops and starts, so he was able to keep up with his explosive power.

About ten kilometers away, the other party got out of the car in front of a hotel.

Shen Qing followed the Japanese man inside and saw him take out a card and easily check in without needing an ID card.

Is there something fishy about this hotel? Or does he know someone at this hotel?

After going upstairs and confirming the other person's room, Shen Qing sneaked out while other guests were coming and going.

Standing across the street, he took one last look at the hotel sign, Haiyan Hotel. It wasn't a chain brand, but it had quite a reputation in Binhai.

The restaurant is famous for its various raw food dishes, and he knew about it thanks to his sister-in-law's relatives.

This isn't the first time something like the Four Seasons Pavilion incident has happened. Although things seem to have calmed down now, I wonder if they can't get into my brother's current neighborhood.

Shen Qing pressed down on the headset.

"Captain, we couldn't find the target's location. He went into a hotel, Haiyan Hotel, 16th floor, room 1605."

"receive."

Fang Shu's voice came through the earpiece, "Then you can come back first. There will be other people keeping an eye on the target."

The Japanese aren't invincible when it comes to stealth; you have other things to do after all.

"Captain, you one..."

Hearing the other person's slightly panting words, Shen Qing frowned instantly. He remembered that he wasn't like this before he came out.

"I'm fine."

Fang Shu interrupted him, "It was just a minor injury sustained to lower the guard of that Japanese man; it was healed with a single talisman."

Then, he changed the subject.

"By the way, your girlfriend came to see you and even brought you food. If you don't come back soon, those hungry wolves might steal it all."

Hearing Fang Shu's smiling voice made Shen Qing feel a little more at ease.

But if your girlfriend brings you lunch, does that make her a female knight-errant?

Indeed, because of the demon incident, he hasn't been home for two nights, and he rarely even sees the female warrior during the day.

He had previously mentioned that he wondered what level the female warrior's cooking skills were at, and now he could finally see for himself.

Half an hour later, Shen Qing returned to the base.

Just as they reached the door of the lounge, they heard a commotion. Pushing open the door, they found Fang Shu, Xie Chong, Chen Chen, and the others there.

They were gathered around a table, doing something unintelligible.

"Shen Qing, you're back."

Xie Chong and Chen Chen turned around when they heard the sound. They both had a spare rib in their mouths, their cheeks were bulging, and their hands and mouths were covered in oil.

"Seriously? Do you live this comfortable every day?!"

Chen Chen mumbled, "Your sister-in-law's cooking is so good? You actually kept it a secret!"

Xie Chong also stared wide-eyed and nodded vigorously, almost choking on his own.

"You're back."

Shen Qing glanced at Shen Qingtang beside her, nodded and walked over, looking at the food box on the table that was almost clean, with only a few oil stains left.

Shen Qing's lips twitched involuntarily.

He had already witnessed the heroine's culinary skills, and it must be quite impressive that it was so popular, but he still hadn't gotten to taste it!

Fang Shu shook his head beside him, holding a thermos, "I've already reminded you to come back early."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qing looked helpless. He suddenly wanted to strangle that little Japanese guy for no reason!

Just as she was feeling down, she suddenly felt her clothes being tugged. Turning around, she saw that Shen Qingtang was carrying a food box again.

Here, yours.

It turns out the heroine did a lot this time; the entire team received a share, and she even saved one for him.

Xie Chong and Chen Chen were just messing with him.

Shen Qing ignored them, shooed away Xie and Chen who were trying to get closer, and eagerly opened the food box to reveal braised pork and sweet and sour pork ribs.

It contained all of his favorite foods, which he, as a carnivore, loved.

"sharp!"

A piece of glistening, reddish-brown braised pork belly is delicious, rich yet not greasy, and especially satisfying when paired with rice.

Shen Qing gave the highest rating without hesitation.

Has she only been learning for a month? Compared to her own cooking skills of over ten years, it seems like all she knows is how to cook food.

As Shen Qing was eating, the female warrior poured him a glass of water and placed it beside him. Suddenly, she whispered, "I heard—someone within the operation sacrificed their life this time?"

The lively atmosphere in the break room instantly froze. There had been many things going on in the past two days, including casualties, so the department was trying to avoid talking about it.

Fang Shu paused for a moment, then put down the thermos in his hand. "Two people were sacrificed: Zhao Ming from Group Three and Zhou Haitian from Group Four."

Although it's unclear why the female knight brought it up, perhaps they should go and take a look now that she has.

The person has already sacrificed their life; just because you haven't seen the body doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Shen Qing and his group arrived at the morgue where the fallen were housed. As soon as they opened the door, a blast of cold air hit them.

There are two crystal coffins inside; the remains have not yet been buried.

The story of the supernatural being has begun to circulate online, and the victims cannot simply be buried like that.

The authorities are considering making the information available to the families of those who sacrificed their lives to a certain extent, as it involves the treatment of the families of martyrs and the standards of their burial.

"Their souls seem to be tormented."

Just as everyone fell silent, Shen Qingtang's voice rang out again, and she picked up the paper lantern that emitted a faint green light at some point.
