Magic High School.

Their Anomaly Management Bureau often uses the name of the Imperial Investigation Bureau to cause trouble. There's no way around it; the Anomaly Management Bureau is a secretive agency, but the Imperial Investigation Bureau is notorious throughout the entire empire, so their name is particularly useful.

"Okay...okay..." The staff member nervously took off the mascot costume headgear, revealing a female college student working inside. After a breathalyzer test, she was allowed to pass.

After she pushed the cart out of the mall and onto the large truck that had come to pick up the goods, the next moment, Li Ge emerged from the bulky mascot costume in a posture that defied the laws of human physics.

At this moment, he completely changed his clothes and appearance, put on a set of high-end clothes bought for free from a clothing store, and styled his hair into a slicked-back look with hair gel, like a young master who had run away from home.

Even his aunt would be stunned at first glance, wondering if this kid was her own.

"Thank you for your help." Li Ge smiled at the woman and handed her a stack of banknotes.

"Let's exchange contact information, buddy... I'm from Viona Art Academy, would you like to have afternoon tea sometime?" the woman asked with a loud laugh.

"I'll definitely do it next time." Li Ge smiled and left, leaving behind only an incredibly dashing back view and eyes that seemed to hold the power of a lion.

She stared blankly, as if this figure, whom she had only interacted with for less than a few minutes, held an unparalleled weight in her heart; she might never forget the flamboyant lion in those pupils.

Disguise and counter-disguise, reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance—thanks to the school's special training and guidance, he removed his "face," and at this moment, the real Li Ge revealed his true self. Even when he was talking to the female college student just now, he was wearing a clown mask.

The transformed Li Ge instantly blended into the night and headed towards the mayor's direction.

Chapter 53 The Banner of Our Fathers

At this moment, Li Ge was grateful for the school's escape training. Although he was still a little rusty in actual combat, at least he was able to outmaneuver those who were following him in his hometown.

He immediately headed to the mayor's house under the cover of night. His golden eyes, hidden behind colored contact lenses, scanned all the surrounding [Blood Thirst Disease] tags. Sure enough, no agents followed him this time, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Two moons, one white and one yellow, hung high in the sky. The mayor's house still had lights on, indicating that he hadn't rested.

But at this moment, Li Ge did not knock on the door, but instead sneaked into the house.

In the mayor's home, in the living room, the mayor, who had a small mustache, kept smoking and drinking in silence.

He didn't say a word or do anything; he just kept smoking and drinking, without even having a single dish.

This situation puzzled Li Ge greatly.

Then, after several tens of minutes, the mayor suddenly said, "So you've come after all..."

His words carried a sense of resentment, melancholy, and even a hint of relief.

There was no response from those around him, but he still said, "When I gave you Rean's mask, I knew this day would come."

In that instant, a figure slowly emerged, and Li Ge silently looked at the mayor.

Rean was the name of the father he had never met.

However, the mayor did not speak directly. He simply took a book from the bookshelf, opened it, and inside was an old photograph. The photograph showed five or six young men and women gathered together.

Among them, Li Ge's pupils constricted...

The photo shows the parents when they were young, the aunt who was still young at the time, the mayor who seemed to be around 16 years old, and two other people who were completely unfamiliar to the photo.

Sure enough, the mayor knew my parents and aunt, and they were even very close friends, otherwise he wouldn't have returned the clown mask, such a precious treasure, to me.

He silently glanced at the small line of text above...

"In memory of the members of the 'Hero Squad': Rean, Laura, Rein, Ronan, Danica, Albion..."

The names listed above corresponded one by one with Li Ge.

Rean and Laura are their parents, Rean is their aunt, Ronan is the mayor...

There are two other people I don't know, but this photo alone reveals enough information.

Li Ge slowly raised her head, and the next moment, her golden eyes lit up, and the label above the mayor's head appeared in front of her.

It's no longer just a simple case of "blood thirst disease," but has acquired many other labels...

Mayor Viona, Meme Pollution, Blood Thirst...

In that instant, Li Ge's pupils contracted again.

Unlike others who simply suffer from "blood thirst," the mayor suffers from both "meme contamination" and "blood thirst"...

The label "Thirsty for Blood" was placed on his head, its material resembling blood-stained asphalt.

In that instant, he suddenly recalled the labels he had seen on Senior Longbow, which were almost identical to those on Mayor Ronan at this moment. Senior Longbow's labels were [Meme Contamination] and [Immortality]...

At this moment, Li Ge almost lost control of his expression. He recalled the vice principal saying that Senior Chang Gong was beyond saving, as well as that magic potion that only required one bottle to completely corrupt someone to this extent...

At this moment, Mayor Roland was just like Senior Longbow, who had once taken a magic potion and was now panting heavily with bloodshot eyes.

Li Ge gradually understood that the label "thirst for blood" was a prerequisite for "thirst for blood disease".

A person's label is not static, just like the progression from "thirsty for blood" to "blood-thirsty disease," and then to "those who thirst for blood"...

In fact, Li Ge had many questions he wanted to ask, but at this moment, he probably guessed many of them. Intelligence analysis and associative abilities had always been his main training programs, so now, based on the information at hand, Li Ge could guess most of the answers.

"How are you feeling?" That was the only question Li Ge could ask.

Mayor Roland smiled wryly. At that moment, he felt as if everything about him had been seen through, and he even looked at his old friend's son with an expression of utter relief.

“It’s hopeless. I gave them leverage to prove my loyalty, and there’s no going back… It won’t be long before I become just like them.” Mayor Roland laughed, then clapped his hands and said, “Come out, Lola…”

A girl who looked like a primary school student walked out, carrying a small schoolbag on her back, with silver hair, and timidly peeked out to look at Li Ge.

"Buzz!"

The sound of a helicopter hovered overhead, and in an instant, the hairs on the heads of the three people in the room stood on end.

"They're here..." Mayor Ronan smiled as he placed a group photo of the former Hero Squad in the candlelight. The photo, which held his entire youth, along with the people and events depicted in it, vanished with the flames.

"We once discovered the truth of the world. Me, your parents, and other like-minded partners wanted to save the world together, so back then we naively named ourselves the 'Hero Squad.'" Mayor Ronan smiled, but his smile was ugly, as if everything had vanished with the flames of the burning photograph.

“But we failed. Your parents are dead, and we have to go into hiding and find another way. But I can’t go back. Now, in order to prove myself to my superiors and give them leverage, I’m no different from those cognitively distorted ‘monsters’…”

"Ding dong!"

The bell rang inside the room, and then someone spoke.

"Mayor Ronan, our Director of the Anomaly Management Bureau, Albion, has come to invite you to reminisce!"

At that moment, Li Ge's pupils contracted.

Albion...

And in the photo of the hero team, there is a person named "Albion"!

Betrayal? Defection? Or betrayal? What caused the disintegration of the team from our parents' generation?

Is it because of the failure of the hero team of the older generation that the whole world is now infected with "blood thirst disease"?

At this moment, Li Ge wanted to obtain more information, but clearly, time was running out...

“Take Lola with you. She’s different from me. She’s still a human being. Treat her like your sister, or even your daughter…” Ronan smiled bitterly, straightening his clothes. “I’ve prepared a secret passage here. I’ll send you away. Take Lola far away from the city and escape, even though I don’t know where to escape to…”

Li Ge was actually very silent, looking at the timid elementary school student, he didn't understand why at all.

We were just discussing the Longzhong Dialogue and exchanging intelligence, how did it suddenly fast forward to the scene of entrusting the young emperor to his father at Baidi City...?

Also, are you sure you want me to take this elementary school student away? Or do you really trust me that much?

Li Ge had so much to say and so much to complain about, but time was running out, and so were they.

"Ding-dong, Mayor Ronan?" The person outside continued to ring the doorbell.

"They're here, they're here," the mayor said, but his eyes were fixed on Li Ge.

In Li Ge's golden eyes, he looked at the mayor's daughter.

What shocked him the most was that, in his golden eyes, the top of the girl's head was completely different from everyone else's!

There is no "blood-thirsty disease," only "elementary school student," and another equally unusual label, "immaculate body"!

She was the first and only "completely normal" human being that Li Ge saw after returning to this world.

She is like a mistake in this world, a void that should not exist.

"Let's go!" Mayor Ronan roared, his voice barely audible.

Why is Chapter 54 so close to the entrustment of the heir in Baidi City?

He had less than a second to make a decision: trust this corrupt mayor, who was about to become a "bloodthirsty one"? Risk his own safety for a strange girl?

For some reason, Li Ge felt an inexplicable urge to act recklessly.

I don't care about this or that, I'll just become the God-King for 3 minutes, whoever it is, whether it's Yegezi, Wutian, or Zeus...

As long as it's a god-king, it can eradicate all blood-thirsty diseases and their root causes in one fell swoop. What is this thing? Where did it come from? Why does this thing exist?

Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it. I'm tired, let's just destroy it already...

But in the end, Li Ge managed to suppress this impulsive and unreliable impulse.

Even now, he doesn't know where his enemy is, or who his enemy is. The Bureau of Anomalies?

The Abnormal Bureau is at most a pawn; could it be the Holy Empire?

This requires Li Ge to leave the Holy Empire, go out and see what other countries are like, and whether they also have blood thirst disease.

His power to truly influence the entire world order can only last for those three minutes...

Three minutes is still too short...

All these thoughts flashed through my mind in less than a second.

Without further hesitation, Li Ge scooped up the elementary school student in a princess carry.

She was very well-behaved, without struggling or crying, and even seemed to have been prepared for this for a long time, simply burying her head in Li Ge's arms.

"What are you going to do?" Li Ge asked.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, because I've already pledged my allegiance..." He gave a very ugly smile. "Don't you already know? I'm already one of them. I've long since become a monster."

"The next time we meet, I will be the enemy you must kill."

The mayor pressed a switch, and the bookshelf opened a crack.

"Take care!" Li Ge didn't know what to say, so she just said this and rushed inside.

He was willing to trust this friend of the parents, even if it was just that the mayor was willing to return the parents' treasured "clown mask" to him. He was willing to take the elementary school student away because of this favor.

"Take care of yourself……"
