Chapter 60 Strange Movement

Du Wang and Cheng Huo exchanged a glance.

There were three pieces of the snake's body and three pieces of its belongings.

Such generous demons are very rare.

If it were anyone else, they might start to worry that Brother Fang had disappeared with his belongings.

However, as members of the investigation department, the two were confident, so Cheng Huo handed the black snake's corpse over to the middle-aged man.

Mo'er also handed over the snake demon's corpse in her hand.

"Brother Fang, when are we going to deal with the next demon?"

Brother Fang hugged the three belongings tightly, his joy evident in his eyes.

"It'll be in the next couple of days, but the second demon is much stronger than this broken serpent. You all must follow orders and not act recklessly like you did today, understand?"

"Don't worry," Cheng Huo assured him, patting his chest.

"Alright, let's hurry up and go, the police will be here soon."

Because Mo'er made such a commotion, there were already some onlookers inside and outside the park.

The four of them covered their faces and stealthily left the city park via a side path, going their separate ways.

Fifteen minutes later, Du Wang, having canceled his illusion disguise, got into Cheng Huo's car.

"Old Du, I've found this guy." Cheng Huo grinned as he showed Du Wang the information on his phone screen.

Fang Cheng, 41 years old, is the sales team leader of Mofang Apartment Company.

"So fast?" Du Wang was somewhat surprised by his speed.

Cheng Huo started the vehicle and explained, "Because it's easy to check. Although that car had a fake license plate, its route was very clear in the camera footage, and the pick-up point was the Magic Cube Apartment store."

"I looked around their company a bit and found Fang Cheng. This guy's disguise is pretty simple; you can tell from the photo."

Du Wang snapped his fingers, and the blue flames on the Eyebag Demon flickered.

The next second, the content on the screen appeared out of thin air in front of him, like a giant VR screen.

This is an alternative use of illusion that he discovered.

It means to deceive oneself by projecting the real-life scenario onto one's face.

After all, no one stipulated that illusions can only be cast on others.

Du Wang glanced at Fang Cheng's photo.

Indeed, as Cheng Huo said, his appearance did not change much before and after the disguise; only his single eyelids became double eyelids, and his buzz cut became messy medium-length hair.

The thought of this middle-aged man working overtime every day and then carefully applying double eyelid tape to himself in the rearview mirror after get off work filled Du Wang with a strange sense of amusement.

"Then let's wait until he contacts us next time."

Du Wang picked up his phone and opened the mythology forecast website.

There were no new forecasts for the Shizhong District, but two severe forecasts were issued for the Hanshui District.

After watching the forecast, he then opened the leaderboard.

Ranked 3rd in the Twin Ranks, [Wu].

Ranked 14th in the Twin Ranks, [Double Pupils].

Wu's ranking remained unchanged, while Chong Tong moved up one place.

"Beep beep beep."

Suddenly, several message notifications appeared in the group.

Du Wang opened the group chat and found that Fang Cheng was sending messages.

[A dog bites Lü Dongbin: Something's happened! That water demon is leaving!]

[Dog bites Lü Dongbin: Come over as soon as you see this message, near Yuehe on Baiyu Road.]

[Like a dog biting Lü Dongbin: If you go too late, you'll never find it again.]

[Like a dog biting Lü Dongbin: Whoever doesn't come will have to give up the remains of the broken snake.]

"What's going on, Lao Du?" Cheng Huo asked.

Fang Cheng said the water demon was leaving and told us to hurry over.

"Huh? That's strange. How did he know the demons' movements? Did he go to Yuehe after we separated?" Cheng Huo was puzzled.

Logically speaking, even clues obtained from websites should only cover a fixed range.

It is very difficult to grasp the movements of demons.

Fang Cheng's behavior suggested that he was keeping a close eye on the water demon at all times.

Du Wang opened the map and glanced at the distance between the river and the city park.

"Impossible. Yuehe is in the Hanshui District. It would take him at least 20 minutes to get there from the city park."

Cheng Huo frowned: "Could it be that some other extraordinary individual provided him with information?"

This is the only reasonable explanation.

Du Wang speculated, "Perhaps he has a superhuman behind him who is good at tracking demons. The two of them work together and split the profits."

"Then he has no reason to contact the two of us," Cheng Huo thought, finding it illogical.

Du Wang also felt that it didn't make sense.

Even though there are extraordinary individuals skilled in investigation, the fact that he chose to team up with two investigation-type teammates on the forum suggests that the relationship between the two parties is not close.

Perhaps this is just a one-off deal.

Fang Cheng bought clues about two demonic monsters of the "Fault Level" from a certain extraordinary individual.

In this situation, the seller actually reminded Fang Cheng that the demon was about to leave.

I have a strange feeling about it.

After Du Wang shared his guess, he asked Cheng Huo, "Have you ever seen such a conscientious seller?"

Cheng Huo waved his hand firmly and said, "Impossible, these information brokers are definitely not that kind!"

"People who sell information about demons are either afraid of death, or they're trying to scam money or set a trap. Think about it, if they're involved in information trafficking, how could they possibly be innocent and kind people!"

Du Wang nodded: "So I think we should report the situation."

Cheng Huo was taken aback: "You mean you want the team to send someone?"

"Neither of us is particularly skilled in naval warfare. Even if we're on par with the Void Elephant, we might not be able to take it down quickly. If it escapes, it will only cause more bloodshed, so it's better to send a specialized superhuman from our team."

He had this idea after seeing the information about the water demon.

I was planning to report to Captain Chen tomorrow, but I didn't expect the water monster to show unusual activity ahead of schedule.

"Okay, I agree."

Cheng Huo agreed with his companion's approach without much thought.

Du Wang picked up his phone and dialed Captain Chen's number.

The call was quickly connected, and there were faint, indistinct sounds of conversation.

"Double pupils, what's wrong?" Chen Qingyao's reassuring voice came through the phone.

"Team Leader Chen, I need to report on some situations..."

Du Wang briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter.

"Yes, you did the right thing. That water monster is indeed difficult to deal with. I heard that at least ten people have mysteriously disappeared by the river, and it's all related to this guy."

"However, this demon is in the Hanshui District, which is beyond our jurisdiction. I will immediately notify Captain Yu and Wang Di, and they will contact you soon."

"it is good."

Du Wang put down the phone and put on his headphones.

Shortly after, Wang Di's voice rang out.

"Good evening."

"Good evening," Cheng Huo teased. "I didn't expect you to be working overtime today. Wang Di, you should be at home right now."

Wang Di: "Yes, I'm in the study."

Cheng Huo: "They should all be asleep by now, why aren't they in bed?"

Wang Di: "My parents sleep in the room next to mine, and I'm afraid of waking them up."

Cheng Huo laughed: "Hey, I'm the opposite of you. Every time my parents come over, I deliberately play music and play games in the middle of the night to wake them up, as revenge for them trying to wake me up at seven o'clock every morning."

Uh……

Du Wang thought to himself, "No wonder your parents practice playing the trumpet."

Wang Di didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Fortunately, at that moment, a calm male voice sounded in the earpiece.

"This is Yu Fan. Have you arrived at Yuehe River yet?"

Cheng Huo and Du Wang immediately became serious. This was the captain of Mobile Team 6, and also a Tier 3 superhuman.

"Team Leader Yu, we still have 10 minutes to go," Du Wang replied.

"Okay, then I'll give you a brief explanation."

Yu Fan said, "The Wangxiang is good at attracting others with the sound of a child crying, and once the person gets close, it will swallow them whole."

"And it is very alert; if multiple people approach, it will quickly flee."

"We've failed twice before because of this, so you need to be careful."

"Also, backup will arrive in 15 minutes. So you need to stall for time."

"When the time comes, you can deal with the 'Illusory Image' as soon as you lure it out. If you can't handle it, then hand it over to us."

"clear."

Du Wang and Cheng Huo answered at the same time.

"Well... as for the relics, if you can handle them yourselves, they're yours. If we take care of them, the relics will be divided equally according to their value. In short, you won't have made a wasted trip."

"Thank you, Captain Yu." Du Wang felt relieved, thinking that the captain was quite generous.
