Chapter 218 Painter
Chen Chuan looked at the river outside and said: "If the student's guess is correct, he should have wanted to use Mo Lan to obtain esoteric materials and use the waterways of Yangzhi City to complete a esoteric ritual arrangement. This might be able to transform part of Yangzhi City
Or the entire Yangzhi City is included."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and then Director Lei's voice came out clearly, with a sense of seriousness, "Classmate Chen, please tell me completely and clearly what you saw and the clues. Speak slowly, I
Listening."
Chen Chuan said hello, and then described what he had seen when making the commission before, combined with today's findings, and finally said: "Director Lei, I suspect that the things leaked by Molan Company are themselves
It may be one of the esoteric materials being used.
If it can be confirmed, then I suspect that the person behind the news about the so-called beautification and health-preserving properties of these soils is likely to be released intentionally by the person behind it, and there may also be people arranged by this person among the acquirers."
Director Lei said: "My review bureau has inspected that thing before, and I haven't yet concluded what it is, but it is not enough to be used as esoteric material, but..."
He added: "The water quality in Yangzhi City has its own special features. If the two are combined, it is difficult to say whether there will be any special effects. This is an area that is easily overlooked. I will arrange for someone to check it later."
Chen Zhuan said: "Director Lei, if this person can do such a thing in the river next to Molan Company, the company itself must be aware of this matter, and maybe Molan Company is behind it.
It’s just that nothing happened to Molan Company until it collapsed, so it probably couldn’t be completed in the end, but from the current situation, it seems that this person has not completely given up on his original idea.”
Director Lei said: "If you look at the situation you found, the ceremony is arranged according to waterways, then it should include the entire city, but this alone is not enough. This can only be regarded as the outermost edge and the central part.
There must also be a lot of filling, which is not just what the river can do..."
At this point, he paused and said, "Wait a moment..."
On the other end of the phone, Director Lei seemed to be flipping something. After a while, his voice came from the other end of the phone again, this time becoming very serious:
"If the ceremony is arranged according to the river line, then the previous ceremony on Olive Street is probably not just to transfer the energy, but to use this as a cover to make it a part of the entire ceremony.
If you look at it this way, including the old factory you stayed in in the west direction of the city, it should also be one of the nodes.
Before this, we have discovered and destroyed various rituals in the south and north of the city. Although the distances are not equal, there is no doubt that large and small waterways or underground rivers can be found on the outer edge of each place, which can be matched accordingly."
Looking at it this way, this person should have had this big plan for a long time, and he was very patient. He spent a few years slowly promoting it, improving his skills, and then slowly putting the whole puzzle together."
Speaking of this, Director Lei said calmly: "But his stall is too big and his ideas are too good. If he wants to achieve that kind of effect, unless there are no people from the Yangzhi City Esoteric Cult Examination Bureau."
Chen Chuan nodded silently. Looking at it now, even if the Esoteric Cult Review Bureau did not know about this plan in advance, it relied on its extraordinary professionalism to destroy most of the plan.
But that was also because the Review Bureau had Director Lei, an experienced director. What if Director Lei was not in office? He couldn't help but think about what happened to Director Lei's son three years ago. This didn't seem to be a coincidence.
He thought for a while and asked: "Director Lei, if this secret ritual is completed, what effect will it achieve?"
Director Lei pondered for a moment and said: "It's still hard to tell because this ritual does not exist in any records. It should have been modified by him based on the actual situation.
There has never been an esoteric ritual of this scale before, and even the success or failure may not be certain, so he may not even know it. He should only pursue technical success. Perhaps only after trying it, his next step will be
I will chase the effect.”
Chen Chuanchuan: "So, Molan Company may have been used by him. Well, or Molan Company does not care about these investments. Although Molan Company is no longer here, it seems that he is still trying to restore the ritual."
Director Lei said in a deep voice: "We have destroyed many nodes. It is impossible for him to achieve the original scale of the ceremony. If only part of it is completed, it will not make much sense, but there is another possibility...
If he thinks of the waterway as a boundary, not inward but outward, and in turn targets the areas and people outside the river, then it is possible.
"Beyond the river...is that outside the city?"
Chen Chuan suddenly remembered that the Bloodstain Gang had attacked Caijiazhai before, and there were esoteric cult members among them. Could it be for this purpose?
wrong!
It is too far away from the main river, and I don't know where it is. If we want to arrange it outwards, we can only achieve the effect by distributing it along the river.
And the places outside the river are more important and can be utilized...
Suddenly a place name popped into his mind.
Xieshan!
This mountain in the southeast is very close to the Baihe River, and there is a railway route under the mountain, which has been blown up many times before.
Although it has been repaired now, there is no guarantee that it will no longer be targeted.
Moreover, Xie Mountain is one of the three mountains in the Three Mountains Legend, and it is also a place where ghost stories often appear. It was in Xie Mountain that he killed the mountain ghost!
But this does not mean that there is only such a strange story in Xishan. Assuming that the esoteric rituals can drive away the original ghost stories in Xishan, then even if the Xishan section is opened to traffic again, it will become extremely dangerous.
Especially since the resistance organization has repeatedly caused trouble here, and now the resistance organization seems to be involved with the Bloodstained Gang and the person behind it, could this be the key?
The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was possible, so after thinking about it, he told Director Lei his thoughts. The latter said: "Classmate Chen, this conjecture is very possible. The key is to see what purpose the person wants to achieve. From this
Looking at what a person does, if it does not achieve a certain effect, it is meaningless to him."
He said solemnly: "Recently, the ownership of Molan Building has to be decided. Many giant companies will come to Yangzhi. Domestic companies can choose to take armed special cars, while some foreign companies can only take railways. So the newly restored
A section of railway may be a target.
Even if this inference is only slightly possible, we cannot ignore it. I will try to contact the people in the relevant departments and also secretly verify this matter first."
At this point, he added: "If this matter is confirmed, we must try to stop it, classmate Chen. We may have a commission for you by then. Just wait for my call."
After Chen Chuan put down the phone, he came out of the phone booth and looked at the river flowing outside.
He had no interest in escorting people from giant companies, but in fact, most of the people passing by on the train were ordinary passengers, and these people were innocent.
And speaking of it, whether it was Shen Zheng's previous incident or the old factory incident that was directly related to him, there was a shadow of the person behind it involved, so he should also be rewarded.
At about the same time, in a secret stronghold in Shangbu City, Bao Yuan, the leader of the resistance organization, was communicating with people on the phone.
"Director Han, I promised you that I will do what you said, but should the firearms and funds you promised us be delivered as well?
...You yourself have gone to hide in a place of chaos, but you have left your brothers to deal with those greyhounds. If you have to fight with others and have enough to eat, then you have to deal with things...
The last batch? Forget it, they were discovered by those greyhounds while they were still on the road, and they never got into their hands...
Ha...I will take action. I promised you Molan Company before, what did I fail to do?
...Having said that, let me tell the truth. Manager Han, you know very well what we are doing. If I don't stand up, the brothers below will not obey me. Do you think this is the truth?
So you don’t have to worry about me not working. As long as I get something, I will definitely move it. No matter how much or how little I do, you won’t suffer any loss, right?
Hmm, okay, then I'll wait. As soon as the funds and firearms are in place, we'll start right away...
... Just be optimistic, I will give you a gift in return this time."
With a click, Bao Yuan hung up the phone, raised his head and said to the team member next to him: "It's agreed, the things will arrive in a few days. When the money and things are settled, we will return to Yangzhi City and give them to them this time.
Make a big fuss."
The team member perked up, thought for a while, and reminded him: "Captain, the guys in Cai's Village seem to be looking for us everywhere recently. Are we..."
Bao Yuanyi frowned, "It's lucky that the Bloodstain Gang didn't deal with them. Now we don't have time to argue with them, so just ignore them."
The team members complained: "Captain, if they are holding us back, many things cannot be done. They are always slandering us from above, so why not..."
Bao Yuan solemnly said: "No, we can't do it ourselves. Anyway, we won't face them this time. But if they really dare to come and mess with us, then we will fight together. You go down and tell the brothers to let them live in peace for now. Don't give them any trouble."
I'm making trouble."
"Okay." The team members left angrily.
Bao Yuan thought for a while, then went to the telegraph room next door, and said to the telegraph operator waiting there: "Send the telegram and ask Mr. Painter if the painting can be delivered on time?"
The telegraph operator immediately sent the telegram according to his instructions.
Bao Yuan did not leave, but waited here. However, there was no reply after more than an hour, but he seemed to be very patient. It was not until almost two hours passed that the dispatcher finally received a call back. He couldn't help but stand up and call back.
He went up and asked, "How do you say it?"
After translating, the telegraph operator raised his head and said: "Captain, the painter said that there is no shortage of painting supplies and canvases, and the paintings will be delivered on time."
