Chapter 58 Attempt

An old white sedan stopped in front of the three of them.

The car window rolled down, and a middle-aged man with messy hair, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, looking like a real estate agent, leaned out.

"Get in the car."

Du Wang and Cheng Huo exchanged a glance, recognizing this as the poster "Dog Bites Lü Dongbin".

The two sat in the back seat, while the hooded girl sat in the front passenger seat.

The man started the car and said, "Let me introduce myself first."

"Nine Ears".

"The ferocious ape."

The hooded girl didn't speak.

The man looked at her: "No need to say anything, you must be Mo'er."

"Just call me Brother Fang. I'm older than you, so calling me 'brother' won't hurt you."

"It's fate that we were able to team up together."

"But let me make this clear first: follow my orders. If anyone acts recklessly and causes the snake demon to escape, I certainly won't let them get away with it."

"Don't even think about hiding the belongings or leaving with them all to yourself."

"I'm quite familiar with Captain Xiao from the Investigation Department; we often have tea together. You should know him, right? Captain Xiao is one of the top 4 officers in Nancheng."

"So don't be fooled by your disguises, if I really wanted to find you... humph, it would be a piece of cake."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Huo couldn't help but ask, "Is it Team Leader Xiao, Xiao Zhennan, who is in charge of the Gong Sheng District?"

"You know quite a lot, huh?" Brother Fang's expression was slightly smug.

Cheng Huo nudged Du Wang with his knee and raised his hand to cover the corners of his mouth that were turning up.

Team Leader Xiao is in charge of Zhengyang District, while Team Leader Wang Kai is in charge of Gongsheng District.

If they don't even know such basic facts, it's obvious they're just spouting nonsense.

I guess they've only heard of Xiao Zhennan's name.

Of course, Du Wang could understand this approach.

After all, if you don't say something threatening when facing three unfamiliar superhumans, you'll easily be bullied.

As a member of the investigation department, it was indeed difficult to maintain a composed expression when hearing such boasting.

Cheng Huo quickly stopped laughing and praised, "Wow, Brother Fang, why didn't you ask Captain Xiao for help?"

Brother Fang waved his hand: "Hey, those important people are so busy, it's not good to cause trouble."

"Besides, there are only two demons of the 'Fault' level. If they weren't good at hiding, they wouldn't have come looking for you. I could have handled it myself."

"Just follow orders when the time comes, understand?"

Cheng Huo readily agreed, "Understood, Brother Fang, I'll do whatever you say."

"Okay." Brother Fang smiled. "Before we reach our destination, let me explain the plan."

He seemed used to having the final say and didn't ask for the opinions of the others at all.

"We'll split into two groups later. Nine Ears and I will be in one group, and Fierce Ape and Mo'er will be in the other."

"Our two teams entered the city park simultaneously from the left and right gates, respectively, to conduct the search."

"This demon is very good at hiding; we can't miss any detail."

"Nine Ears' ability is to eavesdrop, while the Ferocious Ape's ability is to monitor."

"You two, one with keen hearing and the other with far-seeing eyes, are a perfect match to search for any areas the other may have missed or overlooked."

"Then, once demons appear, leave it to Mo'er and me to deal with."

It must be said that Brother Fang's arrangements were quite reliable, at least without any major flaws.

The problem is whether the clues the other party obtained are accurate.

The car sped along the road and stopped 20 minutes later at the entrance of the city park near the residential area.

"Xiao Mo, Fierce Ape, you two get out of the car first, wait for me to send a message and we'll go in together."

"it is good."

Du Wang opened the car door and arrived at the entrance of the city park.

The hooded girl squatted on a stone bench by the roadside, her small body curled up in a ball.

The air was very quiet, with only the sound of the wind rustling through the trees.

Du Wang felt that it wasn't right to remain silent like this; after all, they were teammates. Even if it was temporary, he should at least get to know the other's abilities.

So he said, "Could you briefly describe your abilities so I can help you?"

Mo'er stopped hitting the ant with her finger, reached into her clothes and fiddled with it for a moment, then pulled out a slingshot and waved it around.

Du Wang was somewhat surprised: "This is your weapon?"

The girl's head bobbed up and down.

"How far can it shoot?"

The girl held up two fingers.

"20 meters?"

The girl continued to nod.

"Can you maintain accuracy?"

The girl pointed to the hardworking ants on the ground.

"Can it hit ants within 20 meters?"

The girl gave a thumbs-up, seemingly praising Du Wang's interpretive abilities.

Du Wang also gave a thumbs up: "Awesome."

To hit the bullseye every time within a 20-meter range with a slingshot, you need not only accuracy, but also arm strength and eyesight.

He hadn't expected that Mo'er, who looked so small, would have such extraordinary abilities.

Just then, my phone beeped.

[A dog bites Lü Dongbin: Preparing to enter the park to begin the search.]

Mo'er jumped down from the stone block and walked to Du Wang's side.

"Let's go."

The two followed the stone path and entered the dimly lit park.

A gust of wind blew from behind, rustling the leaves of several cypress trees.

Du Wang placed a hanging pupil on the head of the three-legged corpse crow, letting it slowly fly forward along the path.

After receiving Professor Zhuang's reminder, he decided to take this opportunity to delve deeper into how to use the various abilities of the Eyebag Demon.

Let's start with [Suspended Pupil].

This ability may seem simple, but it has many uses.

For example, attaching to a teammate becomes a powerful tool for real-time information synchronization.

Before getting out of the car, he put a pill on Cheng Huo's arm so that he could detect the situation in time and cooperate with the other party's actions without needing to make a phone call.

In case of any emergencies, they can arrive in time.

Thinking in reverse, if hanging on a teammate is feasible, then hanging on an enemy to detect their movements in advance is also feasible.

He's not quite used to multitasking yet.

"Whoosh."

Du Wang snapped out of his daze and realized that he had been so engrossed in other perspectives that he had strayed off course and bumped into a tree branch.

He swept the leaves off his head, turned around, and stepped back onto the stone path, noticing that Mo'er was looking at him strangely.

"Uh, an accident."

Mo'er nodded and continued walking beside him.

This was the first time Du Wang had used the Suspended Eye technique, and he hadn't quite mastered the allocation of his attention.

However, with each attempt, he gradually gained some insights and mastered the method.

Although he still walks unsteadily, at least he no longer heads straight for the grove.

This novel feeling filled him with motivation.

Continuously pushing your abilities to their limits is a very rewarding thing in itself.

As he moved forward, he found nothing unusual in the city park, nor did he see any black fog.

At most, I saw a couple hiding in the grove, cuddling and kissing.

Their panting could be faintly heard even when walking on the side of the road.

Mo'er tilted her head to look in that direction, then suddenly raised her slingshot and fired.

Du Wang, who was still observing his surroundings, was too late to stop it.

The next second, a man cried out in pain, "Oh no, a snake!"

"Snake! Ah!"

With screams, the couple quickly fled the woods, disappearing from sight while covering their backsides.

Upon seeing this, Du Wang seemed to be deep in thought.

Even though Mo'er clearly didn't see the other person, she still shot the marble without hesitation, and at an extremely fast speed.

This suggests that her ability is related to aiming. Could it be that she, like Cheng Huo, determines location by listening?

As he speculated, he switched his perspective to Cheng Huo's side.

At this moment, Cheng Huo was holding the plastic disc given to him by Zheng Tong, letting the faint tinnitus sound continue to penetrate the forest and envelop everything.

He would stop and rest every few steps.

As he passed a small square, he suddenly noticed extremely fine, inconspicuous black mist drifting in his vision.
