Chapter 423: Chapter 420: Xiao Tian’s Intuition

Looking at Yu Ningxue’s smug face, Xiao Tian smiled and began pondering the connections.

Ever since Xiao Tian finished using the Secret Technique, he had deduced the purpose of those two Black-clothed People.

Their target was indeed Peng Qi—but how did they turn Peng Qi’s former ”neighbors” into people as mindless as idiots?

Perhaps it’s also some kind of Secret Technique, isn’t it?!

Xiao Tian could probe memories through media, and it’s possible the other party has a similar Magic Technique!

It’s just that the other party’s Magic Technique is more aggressive and sinister than Xiao Tian’s. Xiao Tian could think of the Black-clothed People extracting memory from the victim’s brain using a Secret Technique and then reading it!

Then the victim forever loses the extracted memory and becomes idiotic!

And their purpose in seeking Peng Qi?

What Xiao Tian could think about was only the matter of the Double Fish Jade Pendant. Although Peng Qi disappeared along with the Jade Pendant, his intuition told him: this matter is far from over!

Moreover, regarding the Double Fish Jade Pendant, Xiao Tian faintly felt that what he saw was just the tip of the iceberg; there must be a huge secret behind it!

As he was thinking, Bai Tao knocked on the door and came in.

Yu Ningxue hurriedly withdrew her hand from Xiao Tian’s neck, somewhat unable to understand why Bai Tao always appears in such situations?

Bai Tao was already used to it. Every meet-up with the two always turned out like this, and after several occurrences, it wasn’t as embarrassing anymore!

”Just received a police report.” Bai Tao said with a grim face, sitting down uninvited: ”Another incident of residents losing memory inexplicably occurred. I just came back from a meeting at the provincial office.”

”The higher-ups said, to prevent causing public panic, they’re deploying an elite team for us.” Bai Tao forced himself to remain calm, saying: ”We have five days, a deadline to solve the case!”

”Five days?” Yu Ningxue was shocked and immediately asked: ”And if we can’t solve it?”

Bai Tao’s face twitched unnaturally, thinking, can’t solve it?

If we can’t solve it, you have Xiao Tian to protect you, who dares touch you? But for me, things might not turn out well!

”Hurry to conduct a full body check on the victims!” Xiao Tian suggested: ”For instance, see if there are any tiny wounds on their bodies, any abnormal brainwaves, and the like!”

Bai Tao nodded: ”I will urge the relevant personnel to communicate and coordinate quickly with the victims’ families. Any news, I’ll notify you immediately!”

”Anyway, I’m counting on you!” Bai Tao said and exited the conference room door looking worried.

...

Three days later, the report Xiao Tian awaited finally arrived before him.

”Everything’s normal?!”

Yu Ningxue passed the report around, and the elite team’s captain exclaimed: ”How is this possible? Are those doctors blind? How can this be called normal?!”

Listening to a continuous string of such questions, Xiao Tian shook his head, though he had anticipated this outcome, he still couldn’t figure out what method the other party was using.

But now wasn’t the time to get tangled up in this. The urgent matter was how to stop the other party, which was the primary concern!

On the large projection screen in the conference room, news related to this case was being broadcasted.

”Hello, viewers, the residential building I’m currently at is where the bizarre event took place last night.”

The female host continued with a worried expression: ”What you can see now is the house where the victim lives, and the police are currently investigating and collecting evidence. The specific situation inside is unknown to us at the moment!”

”I want to remind everyone here!” The female host said sincerely: ”For safety reasons, please try to minimize going out at night!”

The picture shifted to the financial channel.

”Everyone can see from the data behind me here, that since the sudden large-scale idiocy event that happened overnight three days ago, nighttime travel has drastically declined!”

A middle-aged man with a scholarly look, wearing glasses, said: ”Nighttime snack stalls, bars, KTVs, and other entertainment venues have shown a clear downward trend in business revenue.”

”Here, I dare predict from an economic perspective that if the police fail to swiftly solve this case and provide an explanation to the public, then various industries in Shanghai will suffer varying degrees of impact in the upcoming month!”

An elite team girl said angrily: ”After all that talk, it’s as if he didn’t say anything at all; do you even need to predict that?”

Then the picture changed again, this time directly to a live broadcast platform.

In a live room titled ”Ghost Hunter Takes You Into ’Crime Scene’”, an extremely terrified man said: ”So terrifying! It’s terrifying...”

...

Everyone held their heads, what the heck is all this?

”Everyone saw it, right?”

Bai Tao pressed the remote control in his hand to turn off the screen, saying: ”If we still fail to make any progress, then the public’s panic will grow uncontrollably. At that point, public opinion will spiral out of control, resulting in...”

The conference room was silent, with all elite members remaining speechless and silent.

...

Compared to the restless anxiety of everyone in the police station, Saintly Virtue Daoist’s mood appeared exceptionally cheerful at this moment.

Saintly Virtue Daoist looked at the two people before him, one with a hardy face yet graying hair was his fellow senior brother, Saintly Bright Daoist.

The other had visible wrinkles yet maintained a head of long black hair, named Saintly Judge Doist, likewise, his fellow senior brother!

Seeing these two completely opposite brothers, and looking at the portrait in their hands, Saintly Virtue Daoist’s smile deepened his crow’s feet.

Not for anything else, but because the person in the portrait is his lifelong greatest enemy: Xiao Tian!

”Fellow senior brothers, hold on while I prepare.” With the aid of these two brothers, Saintly Virtue Daoist immediately felt more confident.

He secretly vowed, this time he must make Xiao Tian regret being his enemy.

”Junior Brother, wait!”

Saintly Bright Daoist halted Saintly Virtue, putting away the portrait, saying: ”Junior Brother’s experience we both have heard!”

Upon hearing this, Saintly Virtue Daoist’s face turned extremely malicious, and he bowed, saying: ”I implore my two senior brothers to avenge me!”

”Vengeance will naturally be exacted, but...”

Hearing Saintly Judge speaking beside him, Saintly Virtue Daoist coldly snorted: ”If senior brother does not wish to intervene, your junior brother naturally wouldn’t dare to insist!”

Saintly Judge Doist was about to explain, but Saintly Bright Daoist waved him off.

Saintly Bright Daoist said casually: ”Junior brother fears that his understanding of this Xiao Tian is not quite detailed!”

”Ha! Listening to the seniors talk like this...” Saintly Virtue Daoist sneered: ”You must certainly understand him better than I do then?!”

Seeing the somewhat angered Saintly Virtue Daoist, Saintly Bright Daoist slowly spoke: ”You only know him as the eldest young master of the Zhong Family, but you don’t know he has another identity, known as: the Hunter!”

Saintly Virtue Daoist felt puzzled and asked: ”What Hunter? I’ve never heard of it!”

Saintly Judge Doist asked: ”Did junior brother ever see the latest Dark List rankings?”
