The mutant beast's operating ability may not be as vigorous as the excavator, but it cannot withstand large numbers.
When it comes to the precision of the work, the mutant beast is more precise than the excavator. It quickly cleared away the ruins and locked the floors and specific households.
This operation is equivalent to shaving your hair and looking for head lice. If there are head lice, there will definitely be nowhere to hide.
Now that the hair is gone, where else can head lice hide?
The mutant beast cleaned up this house clearly. Although it cannot be said to be completely restored, basically all the large and small objects in this house were clearly displayed in front of Jiang Yue.
Even a small stick of ointment or a cotton swab could not escape the excavations of the mutated beast.
Unfortunately, all the items presented to Jiang Yue had no reference value at all. The USB flash drives, diaries, and books and documents they were looking forward to were not available at all.
There are books, but they are some children's books, some picture books, basically kindergarten books, and almost no adult books.
Lin Yifei couldn't help but said: "Classmate Xiao Jiang, are you sure it is this household? This does not look like the residence of an archaeological expert."
At this moment, a mutant beast took out a photo album.
When the photo album was opened, there were photos of a family of three. A young couple and a young daughter.
The young couple are about twenty-five years old, and the children range from infancy to four or five years old. They are standard for a family of three in a typical modern city.
Unfortunately, the photo was still intact in the ruins, but the family of three has long since disappeared.
Maybe it disappeared at the beginning of the first change, maybe it went somewhere else before the disaster.
All in all, this family of three is not in this house.
Judging from the daily necessities, there should be no one else living in this house, only this family of three. There is no trace of the residence of archaeological expert Qi Baotian at all.
It seems that this house has either changed ownership or been rented to this family of three.
However, the real estate certificate was soon searched out. The names of the young couple are on it, and they are indeed the owners of this house. They seem to have nothing to do with Qi Baotian.
Neither of the couple had the same surname.
Jiang Yue shook his head slightly. All the existing evidence has shown that this house obviously has nothing to do with Qi Baotian.
Even if Qi Baotian once lived here and owned this house, at least before the advent of the strange era, this house no longer belonged to Qi Baotian.
Judging from the time when this young couple applied for certificates, it was already five years ago. In this way, even if Qi Baotian was once the owner of the house, the property rights had been changed at least five years ago.
Jiang Yue was a little depressed. Even the information found by the Operation Bureau was information from five years ago.
In other words, the Action Bureau could not find any more fresh information about Qi Baotian.
"Classmate Lin, forget it, there's no need to turn it over again." Jiang Yue greeted Lin Yifei somewhat depressedly.
It obviously doesn't make much sense to scroll further.
But at this moment, a mutant beast discovered a hidden compartment on the wall behind a wardrobe. Most of the wall where the hidden grid is located has broken and collapsed, but there are still some 70 to 80 centimeters that are relatively intact.
The hidden grid is at this seventy or eighty centimeter position.
In the dark room, there was a small box.
It looks like the size of a jewelry box.
Seeing the mutated beast presenting this box, Lin Yifei was surprised and said: "Classmate Xiao Jiang, this thing can't hurt anyone, right?"
Although the box is small, it can be held up with a palm.
It’s just that there is no obvious brand mark on the box, making it impossible to tell whether it contains a watch or jewelry.
Jiang Yue observed it for a moment, then with a flick of his finger, the box was opened.
It contains neither watches nor jewelry.
There is a key lying quietly inside!
Yes, a key with a somewhat peculiar shape.
Jiang Yue recognized it at a glance. It was the key to the bank safe.
Jiang Yue exchanged glances with Lin Yifei, obviously a little surprised by the result.
If it's just a key, is it necessary to keep it so hidden? A secret compartment at the back of the closet just for storing a key?
Is this a bit of a fuss?
Judging from the living level of this young couple, they are obviously not a particularly wealthy family. They are ordinary working-class people at best. Even if they have some savings and assets, they can basically be settled with one card.
The young couple also had some three-gold wedding jewelry, but they just locked it in a drawer.
This young couple even didn't have a safe at home.
A family that doesn't even have a safe will definitely not have astonishing wealth.
Then, it is very likely that this key is not owned by the young couple.
The young couple had no reason to lock their valuable gold and jewelry in a drawer. Instead, they ceremoniously hid a key in a secret compartment at the back of the wardrobe.
Isn’t this a matter of discarding the basics and chasing the last?
Unless the bank safe corresponding to this key contains astonishing wealth.
Judging from the level of life of this young couple, this is almost impossible.
This young couple obviously does not look like the kind of hidden rich people.
The conclusion is almost ready to come out.
This key probably does not belong to the young couple. But the people before the young couple had already been put in.
It is estimated that even the young couple themselves did not know that there was a secret compartment behind the wardrobe, and such a key was hidden in the secret compartment.
"Xiao Jiang, don't look at it. I know this key. If I remember correctly, this should be the safe key of the x bank."
"You know all this?" Jiang Yue was a little surprised. You know, Jiang Yue was at a loss for the key. He tried to find some clues from the box, but unfortunately he found nothing.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yifei actually revealed the origin.
"It's just a coincidence. My beast father was a successful man in the Sunshine Era. He couldn't trust anyone. He liked to put valuable things in bank safes. He rented safes from several banks. Therefore, various bank safes in Star City I know what the key looks like.”
"Sure enough, rich people's experiences are different." Jiang Yue couldn't help but smile.
"Haha, for that kind of person, having money is a sin. If he had no money, he might not be so perverted. Forget it, these are not the point."
Jiang Yue nodded, and he really didn't want to chew on the misfortune of Lin Yifei's native family.
"Classmate Lin, since you know the origin of this key, you must know where the safe corresponding to this key is, right?"
"Not every bank has safes that can be rented. Only direct branches and first-level branches have them. Of course, Star City is so big, I don't know how many banks there are. We have to look for them one by one."
Jiang Yue nodded: "It's rare to find such a strange clue. We must not let it go."
"Then just look for it. It won't be particularly difficult anyway. In the Sunshine Era, it was difficult to enter these places, but now we can't enter casually?" Lin Yifei said.
Jiang Yue said: "If this key belongs to Qi Baotian, then there must be something very important in the corresponding safe. This trip is really necessary."
"Classmate Xiaojiang, don't be too optimistic. In such a long period of strange times, the bank must have been visited by countless people. Many criminals will definitely target the bank. The banknotes in the bank may be waste paper, but the precious metals in the bank... This is hard currency at any time. Places like safes will definitely be targeted first."
Jiang Yue thought for a while and said: "If it is Qi Baotian's key, given his status, he will definitely not put that wealth in the safe. There is a high probability that it will be something he studies secretly."
Qi Baotian must be a wealthy person to be able to sponsor so many archaeological projects.
Rich people have too many ways to manage their money, and a bank safe is definitely not enough to keep their wealth.
Therefore, Jiang Yue guessed that the corresponding safe was probably not money or jewelry.
This is not Jiang Yue's wishful thinking, but some speculation based on facts.
The hard work paid off, and when the two walked to the second branch, they found that the key matched the bank's safe.
This safe can be opened with a password, face recognition, and fingerprint recognition, but it also retains the original key to open it.
The two quickly found the corresponding safe.
Just when Jiang Yue was about to insert the key into the keyhole of the safe, his hand suddenly stopped.
Then he turned around, looked coldly towards somewhere in the void, and snorted coldly, reminding Lin Yifei to pay attention to the fact that there were other people around the bank vault.
When he turned on the Borrowing Skill before, he didn't notice this. This undoubtedly shocked Jiang Yue and made him deeply fearful of the person lurking in the dark.
Although Jiang Yue finally discovered the other party's existence, he could not observe the other party's perspective using his vision skills, which shows how strong this person's camouflage ability is.
Those who can avoid borrowing skills must, without exception, be masters of lurking. During the lurking process, they must actively cut off the five senses and six consciousnesses.
Once in this state, there is nothing you can do with borrowing skills.
After all, borrowing is to use the other person's perspective to determine the other person's position.
If the other party takes the initiative to isolate the five senses and six consciousnesses and completely controls himself in a dormant state, it will indeed be difficult to detect.
If the opponent hadn't shown some signs of life just now and Jiang Yue caught some clues, even Jiang Yue would have been deceived.
Lin Yifei and Jiang Yue had fought side by side, and they had a perfect understanding of each other.
She reacted immediately, quickly sent out a signal, summoned the mutant beast she controlled, and started searching everywhere.
Lin Yifei is different from Jiang Yue. She lives in Qiluo Mountain. Her survival rules have always been rough and straightforward. Once she detects a crisis, she will not consider so many complicated things. She must immediately take counterattacks to eliminate the crisis as quickly as possible and kill it.
The moment Lin Yifei activated the mutant beast, a figure snorted coldly in a corner on the other side of the vault, echoing in the void.
Lin Yifei whispered: "I'll drag him, you open the safe first."
Jiang Yue originally wanted to hold him back and let Lin Yifei open the safe.
Just seeing Lin Yifei's posture, it was obvious that she was ready for war. It is obviously unrealistic for her to change her mind at this time.
Jiang Yue could only silently send out two blessings, and then quickly inserted the key into the safe again.
The safe made a clicking sound, and soon the safe door was opened.
Jiang Yue lowered his head and saw that the safe was empty, with only a palm-sized box, which turned out to be a portable hard drive.
Jiang Yue didn't even think about it. With a slight movement of his palm, the mobile hard drive was put into the storage bracelet by Jiang Yue.
After checking to make sure there was nothing else in the safe, Jiang Yue stopped delaying.
In less than twenty seconds, Lin Yifei's side was beaten to the point of danger.
Jiang Yue was also surprised when he saw this.
You know, Lin Yifei's fighting power is very fierce. When they first met Lin Yifei, in that abandoned building to be demolished, Jiang Yue, Tong Feifei and others all suffered a lot.
If it weren't for Jiang Yue's bravery, he would have suffered a loss at the hands of Lin Yifei that time.
But now this enemy that appeared out of nowhere actually made Lin Yifei's mutated beasts scream in agony. Even Lin Yifei, who was forced to fight, was retreating steadily and kept screaming.
After Jiang Yue observed it for a moment, he understood why Lin Yifei was having such a hard time.
Although Lin Yifei is very strong and has various methods, after all, Lin Yifei is not the kind of tough person who awakens the talent of melee combat.
And this inexplicable lurker forced Lin Yifei to fight with him every time he attacked.
When this lurker fought, his whole body was actually emitting a layer of electric light, and his attacks could actually release electricity.
This undoubtedly makes Lin Yifei very difficult.
Lin Yifei's various offensive and defensive methods are very excellent in themselves.
But faced with the attack characteristics of this lurker, he was still beaten very hard.
It was the first time for Jiang Yue to see an awakened person with electric attributes.
Jiang Yue saw it clearly, and without saying a word, a stone wall stood across it, blocking Lin Yifei and the awakened person.
Hula hula.
Jiang Yue followed suit and summoned several stone walls in succession, crisscrossing them, creating layers of barriers and temporarily isolating the opponent from the battlefield.
At the same time, he said to Lin Yifei: "I succeeded, let's go!"
Although Jiang Yue was shocked by this magical opponent, he obviously didn't want to fight with him.
Quickly leave the vault with Lin Yifei.
Jiang Yue reacted very quickly, pulling Lin Yifei to drill into the ground and directly use the earth technique.
Lin Yifei is good at controlling various mutant beasts and is also good at underground operations. Both of them know how to operate underground.
After a while, he walked thousands of meters underground through the earth movement technique.
Lin Yifei finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she still felt a little concerned. Ji asked: "Who is that pervert? Why is there someone with such perverted strength in Star City? He can't be the new agent of the Weird Tree, right? Why is this getting more and more... Is it more terrifying?"
"He may not be the agent of the Weird Tree. If he were really the agent of the Weird Tree, he would never be so idle. The Weird Tree had already asked him to wreak havoc throughout Star City."
This is not an alarmist statement.
With the combat power shown by that person just now, he is definitely capable of causing destruction in Star City.
