Although the shield blocked most of the attacks, the pilots were still affected by the mental fluctuations emitted by the giant hand. They stood there unable to move and fell into deep fear.

Click, click, click.

The high-speed train was pulled into the jam with brute force. Even though ordinary passengers could not see the scenery outside the windows covered with special metal, they could not help but scream at the noise.

Card masters who thought they were quite capable took out their cards and prepared to take action. Some wanted to save others, while others only cared about themselves.

The shield grew dimmer, and the pilots who could see the outside situation fell into despair. At this moment, the bright moonlight suddenly appeared.

Flying Flowers - Chasing the Moon!!

Endless petals accompanied by moonlight formed a giant sword blade, slashing madly at the palm. A full moon in the sky replaced the crazy blood moon. With its terrifying energy, all ghosts and monsters that tried to approach were instantly killed, and their connection with the card area itself was cut off.

Flowers drifted away, and Lu Yan landed in front of the high-speed train. Wearing a windbreaker, he looked back at the drivers and whistled softly:

"The timing is perfect, so what happened to the high-speed rail?"

Chapter 307 How to manage the Mailong Kingdom?

"How is that possible? You're telling me the energy in the energy furnace isn't full? The dial clearly shows it's full!"

"Shouldn't the sudden drop be an energy leak? How could there be less than one-tenth of it when it came out? This could be fatal!"

"Could it be..."

Letting Vulcan and Lamia drag the high-speed train out of the stuck area ahead, Lu Yan sat in the Vulcan, ignoring the curious and grateful gazes around him, and listened attentively to the conversation coming from the power cabin.

The train crew is currently repairing the high-speed rail. However, after inspection, they seem to have confirmed that there is no problem with the high-speed rail itself, and the only problem is energy.

The power reactor should have been fully charged with energy, but for some reason, according to the observations of the card engineers, when the high-speed train left the previous city, only less than one-tenth of the energy was left.

The cause is currently unknown, but it is definitely an extremely serious accident.

The passengers on the train temporarily left the high-speed train and stood in the wilderness eating the food on the train. They were safe at the moment, after all, Lu Yan was there.

After turning the construct into a computer and playing a single-player game, the mechanical maid returned to the cockpit and hugged Lu Yan from behind: "Master, I have also checked the entire high-speed train and there is nothing wrong with it. It is normal and there is no energy leakage."

"The high-speed train wasn't fully charged when it launched, so someone must be held responsible."

The whole thing seemed to be a major traffic accident that was not an accident. Someone might have died as a result, but it had nothing to do with him. Saving people was just a matter of convenience.

"No, there might be trouble."

Lamia noticed Lu Yan's thoughts, but she herself didn't think so. She smiled and raised her index finger:

"I just secretly checked the power reactor's activation information. It's only been opened and charged before driving. This means it wasn't fully charged that time, and no one has stolen the energy."

"On the other hand, this high-speed train is equipped with a special program. Even if the energy is not fully charged, after certain adjustments, it will be indicated on the dial that it is fully charged, reducing the speed to increase the speed."

Lu Yan knew what this meant. Someone had stolen the energy from the power reactor. This had probably been done many times before the incident. As for what the energy was used for, no one knew.

"A thief?"

“It must be the people involved who can do it.”

The mechanical girl nodded affirmatively. Everything was done silently. If the energy theft this time was not so excessive, no one would have discovered it.

In order to reduce accidents, the laws and regulations stipulate that the energy in the power reactor will always be full. You need to fill it up in each city before moving on to the next city.

It seems that this also gives many people the opportunity to profit from it, and I guess many people will lose their heads.

Lu Yan sighed in his heart and had no intention of getting involved. The card masters outside were already charging the power reactor. Once the charging was completed, the high-speed rail would return to its indestructible state and would definitely be able to pass through the overlapping area smoothly and head to Liuhuo City.

Everything went smoothly afterwards. After the power reactor was fully charged, he took a ride to Liuhuo City. The passengers were frightened and rushed to the lobby, making a big fuss in the waiting room.

The train was out of service and the crew and driver who got off had very unhappy expressions. If it weren't for Lu Yan, they would have died tragically in the jam!

Lu Yan left his cell phone number to the driver and co-pilot. He didn't want to care about the corruption within the government, so he found the most luxurious hotel to stay in. Finally, he had time to rest peacefully, and he had a good rest for a few days with his girls.

Three days passed. He was slumped on a beach chair, sunbathing on the top floor of the hotel. Just as he was about to get up and go to the Mechanical City, his cell phone suddenly rang. Lamia's eyes moved slightly, letting it automatically connect.

There was a rapid gasp from the other end of the line, and a familiar voice tinged with despair and fear:

"Mr. Lu Yan, help—"

Gunshots rang out and the phone was suddenly hung up. Lu Yan, who became more and more nosy as his strength grew and used this opportunity to find stronger evil card masters to obtain cards, stood up, patted his chest lightly, and put on the dragon armor.

Lamia tracked the distress signal and transmitted the location to the screen. He took a look and immediately spread his wings and leaped out.

[Something went wrong. The person who called was the driver. According to my investigation, the repairmen who inspected the high-speed train were either killed or injured. Detailed information related to the high-speed train was also erased.]

[Most importantly, the high-speed rail itself suddenly needs to be renovated, and both Liuhuo City and Canglan City are involved.]

"Fire dragon burns the warehouse"?

Information kept flashing on the screen, and Lu Yan couldn't help but shake his head. It was obvious that the official internal corruption had nothing to do with the foreign organization.

How can we rule the Mailong Kingdom with this group of insects? We have to take strong measures now.

Will those guys take any other actions after knowing that he is also involved in this matter?

Lu Yan muttered to himself, and in just a dozen seconds he crossed the street and arrived at the signal point. The driver was being dragged by the killer, and the butcher knife was about to fall.

【Bodhi Sword】【Energy Surround】

Holding the sharp sword, he aimed at the surrounding killers and swung the sword. The sword energy reflected the sunlight like a mirror, which was extremely dazzling. The dazzling light made the killers and the driver subconsciously close their eyes.

The next second, the driver felt his face getting hot, and the sudden smell of rust made his muscles relax. He thought he was injured, and some water stains dripped from his trouser legs.

However, after waiting for a long time, he felt neither pain nor lost consciousness. He then carefully opened his eyes and saw the remains of a corpse with half of its head cut off, the entire head, and the area above the shoulders.

With a pale face and ecstasy, the driver heard a heavy object fall to the ground behind him, turned around, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and fainted completely.

The last person he saw was Lu Yan, the "Disaster Chaser" who had solved a large number of disasters.

"If it involves the authorities, call and ask what to do."

Lilia used magic to clean the blood and water stains on the driver's seat. Lu Yan carried the pitiful and weak card master away from the spot and reported his experience to the director of Hujiang City.

Director: ...

The director only sent a string of ellipsis, and there was no response for a long time. Then another unknown number with garbled characters called:

"[Disaster Chaser], hello, I'm Disciplinary Inspection Officer No. 323. You can call me Mr. Li. Please tell me the details and the specifics of what happened verbally."

I can't trace the number back to its source.

Glancing at the message from Lamia in the helmet, Lu Yan recounted what he had encountered on the way, from their encounter to the fact that only one out of ten witnesses survived in Liuhuo City. The other end of the phone fell into a long silence again.

"I understand. Next, please protect the witness's safety until the disciplinary inspection team arrives. Once the case is safely concluded, we will provide a generous reward, at least a gold card with 3 stars or less."

Chapter 308 Help each other.

"The greater your ability, the more things you'll be exposed to. I'm lucky I didn't rush around before. Otherwise, if I hadn't encountered these unexpected situations and didn't have the backing and strength, I'd probably have been targeted by conspiracies and tricks for a long time."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yan was full of gratitude towards Jiang Jiu who was away from home. It felt like a long time had passed in just a few months, and he missed her very much.

Just having the ability is not enough to get involved in official affairs. If he gets involved in that way, he will definitely be like some of the protagonists in real life or entertainment works, and be blamed by some guys.

It would be much easier to deal with a backer. Lu Yan had done so many good things that it was not easy for corrupt officials to slander him. The only thing to worry about was that the guys in the two cities involved in this matter would take risks and commit suicide as an imperial envoy.

"I hope these guys make a wise choice, but we still need to prepare a little."

Lu Yan carried the driver back to the hotel and threw him back on the sofa. The data in Lamia's eyes disappeared, and she reported to him the intelligence she had gathered in the past few minutes:

"We haven't found any relevant information online. The suspects involved in the train case are likely using an internal network protected by artificial intelligence, or they've simply disconnected from the internet and used the local area network."

To be on the safe side, the mechanical maid locked down all officials and businessmen who might be involved in the incident, paying special attention to those who had recently arranged for their families to travel abroad.

They may not really be planning to travel abroad, but absconding with money is a common occurrence in all corners of the world, both ancient and modern, both in China and abroad. Sure enough, this investigation revealed that many people were planning to travel abroad and had even booked a lot of air tickets.

After sending the information to the disciplinary inspection officer Mr. Li, Lu Yan lay on the beach chair, taking a sip of freshly squeezed juice. He didn't feel anxious at all. Anyway, he had done what he should do. Whether he could solve the case depended on what his superiors thought.

"Owner,"

Lamia squeezed over and said, "There's something you can get from Blue Light Technology, or rather, Xu Zhu, who you previously worked with."

"Oh?"

Lu Yan took off her sunglasses and raised her hand to release a projection, which contained the latest information of the Liuhuo City branch of Blue Light Technology. The information was complicated, and Lamia knew that her master didn't want to read it, so she scrolled directly to the conclusion.

The conclusion is that this branch is managed by Xu Zhu's half-brother Xu You, and the two of them don't get along with each other and are fighting for the family property.

There is a high probability that Xu You was involved in the high-speed rail case. If Xu Zhu knew about this, he would definitely take advantage of it and completely squeeze Xu You out of the family property dispute.

"Then tell him, it's just right for another helping. Does that count as eating from both ends?"

"No, it doesn't count. To have it both ways requires at least two opposing parties. Xu Zhu and the government are not hostile to each other, so it should be killing two birds with one stone, killing two birds with one stone."

Lamia, who was chatting with her master, sent the message. Xu Zhu, who was far away in another city, was enjoying a massage from a beautiful woman. His nerves immediately tensed up when he heard the ringtone.

He used different ringtones for different people's calls. The current somewhat urgent message ring represented that the person sending the message was of high status.

Waving his hand to signal the masseur to leave, Xu Zhu took out his mobile phone and saw the document sent to him by Lu Yan, and his eyes flashed with golden light.

It's not an adjective, there really was a burst of golden light, and the energy ray almost penetrated the phone. Fortunately, he reacted in time and only saw the wall burned through when he looked up.

Compared to his customized phone, the wall is much cheaper.

"That's great, Brother Lu Yan, you are really my lucky star!"

The delighted little fat boy thanked Lu Yan repeatedly in his heart, but when he thought of his younger brother, his smile suddenly turned extremely cold:

"Hahahaha, Xu You, right? If it's true, let's see how you can fight me this time."

After packing his clothes, he pushed the masseur away and stopped the massage. His career was more important. He raised his hand to make a phone call, but he was worried that there might be spies planted by his brothers and sisters around him, so he decided to act secretly for the time being.

He only informed a few close confidants and did not tell them any information. He only asked them to collect information about Xu You's daily life.

At dusk, the driver who had been frightened unconscious finally woke up in a daze. He gradually recalled what happened before he fell into a coma. He stood up and looked at his intact body, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're awake now. It's best not to step out of the hotel from now on, Master Wang Lang."

Wang Lang turned around and saw Lu Yan, who had saved his life. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and thanked him sincerely: "Mr. Lu Yan, it's a good thing you left me your phone number. I..."

"Hey, I don't want to know too much. If you're afraid you'll forget, you can write all the information down on your phone and give it to me. Qin, the disciplinary inspection team is coming. If I really can't protect you, giving him the phone will be the same."

Lu Yan didn't want to know the whole story. The high-speed rail case was difficult to investigate. He just regarded himself as a thug, waiting for the imperial envoy to come and hit wherever he was told to.

Knowing he wasn't completely safe yet, Wang Lang couldn't help but give a wry smile. The aroma of the barbecue made him hungry after not eating for a long time. Lu Yan was flipping the grilled boneless fish and beckoned him to come and eat with him:

"Of all the people who knew about this, it seems that you and I are the only ones alive now. What is the situation at home?"

"A lone man, barefoot."

The driver, who was in his thirties, shrugged and moved a chair to Lu Yan's side. He had just picked up a few skewers of barbecue and put them on the grill when his eyes suddenly widened, and fear and anger leaped out of his eyes:

"What did you just say? All, all dead!?"

"You don't think you're the only one being hunted, do you?"

"no,"

The driver waved his hands vigorously, "But they clearly said that if we agreed to their terms, they would not attack us, and they would also give us a large hush money!"

"I didn't agree either. I thought they were taking action because I was alone and worried about the matter being exposed. Why..."

As he spoke, Wang Lang sat down again with a pale face, gritting his teeth over the death of his companion, the co-pilot.

"What a bunch of damn liars."

Initially, the mastermind behind the high-speed rail case had no intention of killing anyone and was even willing to pay to settle the matter, but he suddenly changed his mind halfway through and chose to eliminate all those who knew about the incident.

What changed their minds? Have the families of those who knew about this been affected?

Lu Yan picked up the mutton skewer and tore off a piece. After a brief hesitation, he called out to Lamia: "Lamia, investigate the families of the victims."

"Don't worry, everything is fine. I'll let you know if anything happens."

Lamia knew Lu Yan's character and had investigated him early on. She picked up the barbecue on the table, looked at it for a moment, and then put it down. At the same time as Lu Yan, she looked up into the air.

The angry Wang Lang was still gnawing on the lamb skewers, treating them as imaginary enemies.

As Lu Yan picked up the tissue to wipe his fingers, he noticed a long sword in Lu Yan's hand.
