"Yo! It's you, Xiao Zeze!"
Xiang Xiaoqin stood at the bow of the boat and saw Zhang Ze at a glance. Her phoenix eyes suddenly curved into crescents, and she waved to him with a smile.
Zhang Ze was quite surprised. Why did Xiang Xiaoqin appear on the ocean research ship?
Isn't this guy from the National Security Bureau? Have you been transferred to the Oceanographic Bureau?
When the two ships were still seven or eight meters apart, Xiang Xiaoqin jumped up and landed lightly on the deck of the cruise ship.
"Intermediate Demon Cave Monster!"
She glanced at the monster's body, turned to look at Zhang Ze, and said, "You killed it, right? You did a good job!"
Zhang Ze shrugged and said casually: "Barely."
Xiang Xiaoqin patted Zhang Ze on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be humble with me, student of Qingda University's martial arts school."
More staff began to board the cruise ship one after another, cleaning up the corpses of the monsters in the Demon Cave, and at the same time evacuating the tourists on the cruise ship to the ocean research vessel.
In addition to those who were killed, all the wounded were treated. After landing, they will be sent to the hospital and continue to receive medical observation.
Seeing that Zhang Feng and Lu Panpan were fine, Zhang Ze felt relieved.
Wang Yang is not here for the time being because he has to appease the company's employees, leaving only Lu Kai staying by Lu Panpan's side.
Many people were talking to their families on their mobile phones, and choked cries were heard from time to time. The aftermath of the disaster made them understand the preciousness of life even more.
"Reporting to the section chief, a total of nineteen people were killed in this accident, including an international student from country M."
After listening to the report from his subordinates, Xiang Xiaoqin frowned.
"It's so unlucky that a foreigner died. The Foreign Affairs Bureau is coming to make trouble again!"
In recent times, the demon cave monsters have fallen into a deep sleep, the crisis has subsided, the global situation has become better and better, and the demand for the powerful in the demon realm has become smaller and smaller.
As a result, fewer countries applied to Country M for assistance from powerful demons. As a result, Country M could no longer rip off other countries and lost a large amount of income.
However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Country M still plays an important role in the world. It is an economic power, a military power, a demon power... it has a lot of titles attached to it. No one dares to look down upon it, let alone offend it casually.
Therefore, the matter of international students from country M is very difficult, and they may be subject to compensation from country M.
After all, if people die on the territory of Daxia Kingdom, you have to be responsible...
Some people say this is unfair, sorry, this world is inherently unfair!
If you want fairness, speak with strength!
Zhang Ze walked to Xiang Xiaoqin and asked in a deep voice: "Is the monster from the Demon Cave about to wake up?"
Xiang Xiaoqin was silent for a moment, and finally said: "The results we detected indicate that it is possible, but it is not completely certain yet."
"Actually, there is nothing we can do now but wait."
Xiang Xiaoqin sighed: "I hate this feeling, it's like waiting to die!"
Zhang Ze can actually understand Xiang Xiaoqin's mood. Human beings know very little about the monsters in the Demon Cave and are completely passive.
Knowing that the monsters from the Demon Cave will definitely come back, but having no way to prepare for it and having to put out fires everywhere, it feels really bad.
"By the way, did you find any cards after you killed the monsters in the Demon Cave?"
Xiang Xiaoqin suddenly spoke, she blinked at Zhang Ze and said with a smile: "Don't lie to me."
Zhang Ze rolled his eyes and said, "I found it, what? Do you still want to hand it over?"
"Of course! Everything found on the territory of Daxia Kingdom belongs to the state!" Xiang Xiaoqin deliberately said with a straight face, "As a citizen of Daxia Kingdom, don't you know?"
After saying that, she opened her hand to Zhang Ze: "Bring it here."
"Hmph." Zhang Ze curled his lips, reluctantly handed the card to Xiang Xiaoqin, and then said angrily: "Should you give me another banner and a bonus of 500 yuan?"
"Flag? Bonus? What do you mean?" Xiang Xiaoqin looked confused. She didn't know that this was a joke on earth.
Zhang Ze waved his hand: "Nothing."
"C-level card... rubbish!" Xiang Xiaoqin glanced at the card, then stuffed it back into Zhang Ze's hand, and said with disgust: "I thought this mid-level devil's cave monster would produce cards above level A, really. Disappointed! You should keep it for yourself."
Zhang Ze asked curiously: "What is the use of this card? What does C level mean?"
Xiang Xiaoqin did not answer the question directly, but said: "Do you still remember when you and Zheng Hao were fighting more than a year ago, the guy drank a bottle of weird potion and his strength instantly became stronger?"
"Remember, you told me at the time that this bottle of potion came from the Demon Realm...could it be..."
Zhang Ze's heart moved and he asked in surprise: "This card can transform things in the Demon Realm into the real world?"
Xiang Xiaoqin nodded and said slowly: "Yes, it's called [Extended Card]. You can check its attributes in the Demon Realm."
"[Realization Card], like other equipment props, is divided into seven levels according to quality: D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS. Use it to materialize equipment or items of the corresponding quality level into reality. The world comes.”
"This is how the potion used by Zheng Hao and my weapon [Dragon Spear] came to this world."
Xiang Xiaoqin stretched out her hand, and Zhang Ze saw a white light flash in her hand, and a majestic silver spear appeared out of thin air in her hand!
Zhang Ze saw with his own eyes that Xiang Xiaoqin used this spear to kill monsters in the Demon Cave in one fell swoop. The power was amazing.
"If we have weapons from the Demon Realm, it will be easier for us to deal with the monsters in the Demon Cave. This is a good thing!" Zhang Ze felt a little excited.
He thought about his enhanced version of the SS-level weapon [Blood Fiend Longbow]. If it could be embodied in the real world, wouldn't it be like playing with its powerful attack power against monsters in the Demon Cave?
Xiang Xiaoqin's expression was serious. She shook her head and said, "This is not a good thing!"
"You have to know that there are a lot of bad guys in our world. Once these cards fall into their hands and are used to kill people and set fires, do you still think it is a good thing?"
"Also, the appearance of the card also illustrates a problem..." Xiang Xiaoqin took a deep breath and said in a difficult tone: "The connection between our world and the demon world is getting closer and closer, maybe one day , the two worlds will merge and overlap!”
"When the time comes, the monsters from the Demon Realm will come to our world and wreak havoc everywhere together with the Demon Cave monsters. Do you think this is a good thing?"
Zhang Ze was stunned when he heard this. He was silent for a moment and said, "This is indeed bad, but if the two worlds really merge, we can't change it."
Xiang Xiaoqin looked up at the night sky, nodded slightly and said: "You are right, we can't change anything, we can only accept and adapt. If we can't adapt, then we have no choice but to die!"
For a while, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere became a little depressed.
"Ha! How could I say such negative energy to you? Isn't this a way to dampen the enthusiasm of the younger generations? I'm so sorry!" Xiang Xiaoqin suddenly laughed, patted Zhang Ze on the shoulder, and said: "All of this is just speculation. , No one knows what the future will look like, so don’t think so much, it will only add trouble to yourself.”
"As for you, go to school hard and practice your skills. After graduation, you can work under me. How to contribute to the country is what you should think about. Don't worry about the rest."
Zhang Ze nodded. He knew that Xiang Xiaoqin seemed to be laughing and joking on the surface, but in fact he was under a lot of pressure on his shoulders.
"What are your plans for the long-awaited vacation?" Xiang Xiaoqin lit a cigarette, blew out a smoke ring, and asked leisurely.
After waving away the surrounding smoke, Zhang Ze said: "A new model of artificial kidney is on the market. I want to take my sister for an artificial kidney transplant to relieve her pain."
Xiang Xiaoqin raised his eyebrows and said: "You told me earlier, I will introduce you to some surgeons with good medical skills, who will ensure that your sister leaves the smallest incision. Girls are very concerned about scars. "
"Thank you. We have been cooperating with an attending physician named Yang from Tianfeng First People's Hospital. He was also the one who performed the surgery on my sister. We don't want to change."
"Okay, are there any problems with money?" Xiang Xiaoqin looked at Zhang Ze and said generously: "Although I am not a rich person, I have accumulated a few hundred thousand while working in the National Security Bureau in the past few years. If I need help, I said."
Zhang Ze smiled and said, "I can solve the money problem myself. Thank you, Section Chief Xiang."
"I said, call me by my name." Xiang Xiaoqin waved his hand, threw away the cigarette in his hand, and said, "Maybe at some point, I will no longer be the section chief..."
Then, she waved goodbye to Zhang Ze and disappeared into the crowd.
…
Three hours later, the ocean research vessel brought the survivors on the cruise ship ashore. After everyone and the police made notes, they left.
After Wang Yang sent Lu Kai, Zhang Ze and others back to Tianfeng City, he hurried back to the seaside to deal with the employees of the resettlement company.
When Zhang Ze brought Zhang Feng back home, it was already around one o'clock in the morning.
Zhang Feng was greatly frightened and kept having nightmares even when she fell asleep. Zhang Ze had to stay with her until she fell asleep completely and then tiptoed back to her room.
"Oops, it's already three in the morning!"
Zhang Ze looked at the time and hurriedly entered the Demon Realm. He didn't know if Liu Yueying was still waiting for him.
"Seven hours late...will she be angry?"
Feeling a little uneasy, Zhang Ze appeared on the Demon Realm Altar. He immediately looked around and found Liu Yueying standing silently not far away, obviously still waiting for him.
Zhang Ze felt moved and guilty, and hurriedly ran over: "Yueying! Sorry, I'm late for something."
Liu Yueying turned her head to look at him, smiled and shook her head: "It doesn't matter."
After being bullied for seven hours, she actually didn't get angry. Liu Yueying has such a good temper?
Zhang Ze was a little surprised. Didn't he say that girls hate boys who are late?
In fact, he doesn't know that for a girl, as long as it's the person she likes, she is willing to wait no matter how long it takes.
"Let's seize the time and continue practicing."
The two came to the old place, and Zhang Ze summoned the orc swordsman to continue the last training.
"Teacher! Please use the five knives directly!"
Liu Yueying bowed deeply to the orc swordsman and said, "I think I can defeat you!"
The orc swordsman remained expressionless, nodded slightly and said: "As you wish."
Five steel knives appeared at the waist of the orc swordsman at the same time. He took a stance, his beast eyes flashed with a fierce light, and said: "This time, I will use all my strength, you must be careful!"
"yes!"
Liu Yueying also held the single sword in her hand with a focused expression, like a hunting cheetah!
brush!
The two figures disappeared on the spot at the same time, and the next moment, their steel knives collided together!
Sparks burst out, murderous intent is rampant!
…
Xiang Xiaoqin got off the ocean research ship and was going to rest on land for a while.
After staying at sea for a long time, the salty smell of sea water is in the mouth and nose every day. Even the hard-working Xiang Xiaoqin can't stand it.
"Xu Lu! I want to eat barbecue!"
As soon as she saw Xu Lu who drove to pick her up, Xiang Xiaoqin shouted that she felt like she was turning into a fish since she ate fish every day.
"Um... Section Chief, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat barbecue today."
Xu Lu smiled and said, "Professor Ouyang asked us to go over. They have successfully restored the data in the phone."
Xiang Xiaoqin was stunned for a moment and said excitedly: "Really? Hurry, let's go there now!"
Xu Lu was stunned for a moment and said: "Section Chief, it's late at night now. Why don't you take a rest first? We can go again tomorrow..."
Xiang Xiaoqin waved his hands repeatedly and said eagerly: "I can't wait any longer. Let's go now. I can sleep on the way."
Then, she jumped into Xu Lu's jeep, Xu Lu stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove into the distance in the deep night.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Xu Lu's car finally entered Tianjing City and slowly stopped at the entrance of the National Security Bureau building.
Xu Lu patted Xiang Xiaoqin, who was sleeping in the passenger seat, and said softly: "Section Chief, wake up, we are here."
"Um."
Xiang Xiaoqin rubbed his eyes, stretched, then jumped out of the car and strode into the National Security Bureau building.
Arriving at the scientific research center on the third floor, Xiang Xiaoqin went straight to Professor Ouyang's exclusive laboratory, where Professor Ouyang was waiting for her.
"Professor, I'm here. Where is the data in the phone?"
As soon as Xiang Xiaoqin entered the laboratory, she asked Professor Ouyang for data.
"You girl, you don't know how to say thank you, and you come up and ask for things! You have exactly the same temper as that old guy from the East!"
Professor Ouyang said angrily, and handed a piece of information to Xiang Xiaoqin.
"I have restored 80% of the data in the mobile phone. The remaining 20% can no longer be restored. You can check it based on this information. You may be able to gain something."
Xiang Xiaoqin nodded, and then couldn't wait to look through the information.
The information listed rows of names and phone numbers of mobile phone contacts. Xiang Xiaoqin took a look and found that the owner of the phone was very alert, and all contacts used code names instead of real names.
Although no clues can be found from these code names, the mobile phone number cannot be faked.
"Xu Lu! Immediately hand over the phone numbers on this document to the Communications Bureau and ask them to help check the real names, addresses and other information of the users of these mobile phone numbers. Hurry!"
Xiang Xiaoqin handed the information to Xu Lu, who had just ran upstairs. She had been waiting for this information for a full year, and now that the results were finally available, she was filled with urgency deep in her heart.
This is not only because she can trace the Dawn Organization, but also because it is related to the future of the National Security Bureau.
Xu Lu turned around and ran after getting the information. Xiang Xiaoqin was pacing back and forth in the corridor. She was restless, fearing that her hope would be lost again.
About half an hour later, Xu Lu ran back excitedly and shouted from a distance: "Section Chief, we found him!"
