Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1653 - 740: The Missing Person 2
Previously on Online: I Can See Health Bars...
The Sheepskin Demon looked up, following the large window glass, gazing into the sky.
"Perhaps... we can make use of these friends who ’smuggled’ in from who knows where."
Yes, smuggling.
The Sheepskin Demon had become increasingly clear that the Big Belly Rat Demon in the sewer did not use the same method to enter this world as it did.
The level, too low.
The Sheepskin Demon, upon arriving in the new world, seemed to have shed a layer, with its power significantly diminished, constantly needing to absorb energy to gradually restore its peak strength.
Whereas the Big Belly Rat Demon, from the start, never had that level of power or the qualification to step into this world!
"Someone... is causing trouble."
The Sheepskin Demon grinned, feeling that things were becoming increasingly interesting.
But that barrier, is not something... any demon has the qualification to break through!
"Dare to abandon everything, and like me... step into this world with your true self? From the other side... friends."
...
In the sewer.
Fang Yu let go of his hand in confusion.
As he opened his palm, tiny particles, like shredded paper fragments, scattered and disappeared.
Impossible to track.
Even though Fang Yu clearly knew he had the ability of the Believers, his use of it was far too immature.
Vaguely, he could feel that by using the Bloodline Spirit’s power, he could do some tricks on the Parchment, but such a vague sense would collapse and break when tracking out no more than ten centimeters.
He seemed to have all the power but was too inexperienced and unfamiliar with using it skillfully.
However... Fang Yu was certain of one thing.
"Is it... that guy’s clone again?"
Fang Yu clenched his fist, originally thinking the disappearance of those investigators might not be related to demons.
Turns out...
"There are still so many unresolved issues on the Seeking Demon side, yet in reality, demons start to emerge..."
Fang Yu felt a headache, but thankfully he was not fighting alone now.
Just like today, with Uncle Qi Sheng’s terrifying intelligence support, if anything needed investigating or felt problematic, he could immediately get the news and rush over for support.
After carefully checking the sewer and confirming there were no other demons lurking, Fang Yu climbed out of the sewer.
Brother Qi at the entrance had been waiting for quite a while.
"How was it? I just heard a big commotion coming from below."
"There was indeed a situation... but I’ve already taken care of it. As for those missing investigators..."
Fang Yu didn’t finish his sentence; if caught by demons, ordinary people on Blue Star basically had no chance.
"How many were there? Are the bodies still there?"
"Just one, the demon’s body is still there, but the investigator’s..."
"In their line of work, they knew the risks long ago; it was just unfortunate for them... Besides, our company has provided high insurance for such talents and will provide large compensations to the deceased’s families."
A big company, indeed thorough in every aspect.
But dead is dead.
No amount of compensation is meaningful.
"Take me to the other places where rumors spread, let me have a look."
Since something happened here, Fang Yu naturally took it seriously too.
However, Brother Qi first called someone to carry the body from the sewer back to the base, then took Fang Yu to start the actions.
Unfortunately, other places with rumored occurrences were all checked over, and Fang Yu found no clues.
"Mr. Fang, let’s head back. If there are new discoveries, I’ll report to you immediately."
Brother Qi said.
Fang Yu thought for a moment, then nodded.
For that demon, Fang Yu could only sense a direction; finding it on his own was like searching for a needle in a haystack.
But with the help of Uncle Qi Sheng’s influence, it’s different.
With personnel from all sides in place, increasing surveillance intensity in a certain area or direction, any slight move by the other party would be immediately detected.
Demons, they need to feed.
Sooner or later, they would make a move.
If it dares to cause trouble, with Uncle Qi Sheng’s group’s capabilities, tracking it down would only take minutes!
Thinking of this, Fang Yu’s thoughts gradually calmed.
Sitting in Brother Qi’s car, Fang Yu started to frown, thinking about the demon in the sewer, deep in thought.
He felt the demon in the sewer had a subtle awkwardness compared to the demons in the Seeking Demon World, but couldn’t pinpoint what it was specifically.
As the thought shifted to the journey to the Land of Gathering Evil in the morning, Fang Yu’s attention also shifted.
Too many things.
...
"Chen Ya! Do you know who I saw today?"
In the hospital, Chen Ya opened her eyes to see her college roommate, Xu Xin.
Although both had graduated and entered society, their private relationship remained good.
During Chen Ya’s hospitalization period, Xu Xin visited her several times.
Unlike the previous days of silence, lethargy, and gloominess in Chen Ya, she was now filled again with hope!
Because... she had recently seen her brother Chen Yayue!
At that time, Chen Ya thought she was dreaming, almost not daring to believe her eyes.
But the fact was, her brother Chen Yayue was indeed still alive!
Although he seemed to be hiding secrets, always whispering and concealing, not revealing or saying anything to her.
But as long as... her brother was alive, that was enough!
So Chen Ya was very happy and excited.
However, Chen Yayue didn’t stay long; despite ordering an expensive dinner to the hospital intensive care room, where they dined together as brother and sister.
But in the end, Chen Yayue left.
"I turned out like this! Brother, won’t you stay to take care of me!"
Chen Ya loudly questioned that silhouette, but that silhouette trembled and walked away briskly.
Her brother was hiding something from her!
Chen Ya was certain of this, but other clues were hard to catch.
The only hint... was that her brother seemed to have a deep understanding and familiarity with the Seeking Demon Game, and repeatedly hinted that she must keep playing this game...
Did her brother’s departure have something to do with the Seeking Demon Game? And what was with the money? Saying to use boldly and it would be deposited monthly...
What I want is not these!
Chen Ya clenched her fist.
But Xu Xin, who came to visit her, clearly hadn’t noticed her best friend’s mood and was still excitedly talking about earlier matters.
"It’s Senior Guoshu! The legendary Senior Xia Guoshu!"
"He even said he wanted to invite me for a drink after work! My gosh! I still feel like I’m dreaming, working in the same workplace as Senior Guoshu!!"
"Chen Ya, how can I hold back seeing Senior Xia Guoshu every day?"
Initially, everyone came to visit out of concern for Chen Ya’s injury.
But as time went on and Chen Ya’s condition stabilized needing only observation and treatment, visitors’ attention gradually shifted from concern to chatting about daily life and trivial matters.
Chen Ya didn’t see anything wrong with this, especially since she felt more at ease after the issue with her brother seemed resolved.
Even if she still had concerns about why her brother couldn’t stay or meet every day.
"Xu Xin, pursue boldly!"
Chen Ya placed her hand on her friend’s hand.
"I believe with your charm, you can easily win over Xia Guoshu or whoever!"
Everyone has their own aesthetic, but Chen Ya didn’t feel anything for Xia Guoshu.
"I knew you would support me! Wait for my good news; I’ll start my pursuit tomorrow! I’m going to win over Senior Guoshu directly!"
Xu Xin became full of confidence and vigor.
Chen Ya smiled, chatted with her for a while, and after the nurse came to usher visitors out, Xu Xin said her goodbyes and left.
And Chen Ya, put on her gaming helmet.
...
In the game.
At the foot of the White Lotus Sect mountain.
Her character opened her eyes.
Standing by her bedside was the cold, dead-like White Lotus Dye... Shen Heilian!
"You’ve slept too long."
"Didn’t delay the plan."
Chen Ya got up coldly.
