Go Ahead If You Can!
Chapter 13
After Bai Yu returned to the Special Investigation Office, the first thing she did was to interrogate the shadow man.
The Special Investigation Office had an energy field formed by the Soul Suppressing Mandate. All the people on Earth who had not been exempted by the Soul Suppressing Mandate would be restricted and unable to use black energy here. The protective shield set up by Lin Jing in the Special Investigation Office was based on the research of this energy field.
Therefore, as soon as the shadow man was brought into the Special Investigation Office, the black fog surrounding him dispersed. His body also turned into the appearance of an ordinary person. He looked ordinary and didn't have the fierceness he had when he was shrouded in black fog.
Moreover, he didn't know as much as Lin Jing had imagined.
"That shadow man is just an ordinary person on Earth. He has some friendship with Zhu Jiu, so Zhu Jiu asked him to help snatch the Sacred Weapon.
Other than that, he doesn't know anything about Ye Zun, so he can't be of much help. "
Bai Yu called Zhu Yilong and told him everything she knew. The latter wasn't surprised by this result. "The shadow man in the movie still has a conscience. Obviously, he hasn't been bewitched by Ye Zun.
But now, we can at least put Zhu Jiu on the wanted list. We should try to catch him as soon as possible before he causes more trouble. "
The two of them chatted about Zhu Jiu for a while before hanging up the phone.
After that, Zhu Yilong disguised himself as the Black Robe Envoy and came to pick up the shadow man. He was sent to the Earth King's Palace to be sentenced. Bai Yu drew Zhu Jiu's appearance according to the shadow man's oral description — which was actually their own impressions. Then, she handed it to Wang Zheng for her to use as a wanted poster.
Wang Zheng took the portrait that Bai Yu drew. After taking a look at it, her whole body stiffened.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that Lin Jing was still holding the portrait, Bai Yu looked at her strangely.
"Director Zhao, did you draw a … eggplant spirit?"
"What?
Eggplant Spirit? "
Daqing wasn't interested in the portrait at first, but when she heard what Wang Zheng said, she took the portrait from Wang Zheng's hand. She looked at it and laughed. "Lao Zhao, what the hell are you drawing?
You're wearing purple clothes, and your hair is also purple. You even have a layer of yellow skin on the outside. Wang Zheng wasn't wrong when she said that you're an eggplant spirit. Ouch! "Bai Yu kicked her in the back, and she ran away while laughing and screaming.
"Get lost! Get Lin Jing here!"
Bai Yu also knew that her painting skills were average, but she couldn't help but blush when it was exposed so mercilessly.
A moment later, Lin Jing walked out with messy hair. "Boss, what's the matter?"
"The previous Earthling has captured his appearance when he goes online. Draw him out and make a wanted poster."
"Ah?" Lin Jing was dumbfounded. "Boss, I'm a scientist, not an artist!"
"What are you talking about?"
Bai Yu couldn't be bothered to care about the difference between a scientist and an artist. "Why don't you fiddle with computer software every day? Why don't you use Photoshop or some other drawing software?
Hurry up, don't delay things. "
Lin Jing couldn't win against Bai Yu, so he could only turn on the computer and open the drawing software. He tried to draw a person while listening to Bai Yu's dictation.
Although he could operate the code smoothly, he was as bad as Bai Yu when it came to drawing lines. He couldn't even make a person's appearance after drawing for a long time.
Bai Yu held her forehead helplessly as she looked at the "color palette" on the monitor. It seemed that Lin Jing wasn't reliable either.
Just as she was thinking about how to solve the problem of the portrait, there was a flash of light at the door. Zhu Yilong, who was disguised as the Black Robe Envoy, appeared again.
"I've received information about Zhu Jiu from the Earth King Palace. The Earth King Palace has officially issued an arrest warrant.
Director Zhao, this is the image of the wanted criminal Zhu Jiu. I'll leave the matter on the ground to you. "
He handed a piece of paper to Bai Yu as he spoke. Zhu Jiu's face was printed on it. However, at that time, Zhu Jiu still had short hair and was wearing the uniform of the Earth Star Guards.
Bai Yu took the paper and looked at it. She couldn't help but laugh. "This guy is still …"
"Director Zhao!"
Zhu Yilong hurriedly interrupted him. He didn't want this guy to get carried away. "I still have something to do. I'll take my leave first. I'll leave the rest to you."
Bai Yu also realized that she had almost said something wrong. She cleverly nodded and said, "Take care, sir."
Zhu Yilong nodded. He glanced at her and then teleported away. Bai Yu handed the freshly made portrait to Lin Jing. "We have the template now. Do as I said before and do a wash, cut, and dry of him. Then, send it to everyone's phones. Let's try to catch this guy as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, a system notification suddenly rang in his ears. [Triggered Random Mission: Catch Zhu Jiu. Mission Completion Reward: Two Archive Capsules and 500 contribution points. Mission Duration: Half a month. Failure of the mission will not result in a deduction of contribution points. However, a penalty will be randomly generated. Host, please be informed.]
Bai Yu was stunned for a moment. She looked at the mission panel. She was worried that there were too many people in the Special Investigation Department, so she didn't react to the system. After arranging Zhu Jiu's matter, she returned to her office. She stared at the new mission on the system panel and frowned.
"Catch Zhu Jiu in half a month?
Isn't this mission a little too fast?
Also, what is a Random Mission? "
[The Random Mission will be adjusted according to the host's recent actions. If the host's character is not OOC, the host will be able to receive the corresponding mission.]
"Then what does the Random Punishment mean?"
The system said, [The Random Punishment means that the punishment mode will be randomly generated. The host will choose the punishment based on the punishment panel. The severity of the punishment will be determined by the result of the selection.
The punishment content will not affect the host's body. Don't worry.]
"Hmm …" Bai Yu touched the stubble on his chin thoughtfully. He felt that the system's so-called Random Mission was probably a trap.
However, since the mission would not deduct contribution points, it was not impossible to take a gamble.
If the mission was completed, 500 contribution points would be a huge sum of money for them.
After making up her mind, Bai Yu no longer hesitated. She accepted the mission and began to think about how to catch Zhu Jiu in advance to exchange for contribution points.
…
The first stage of the main mission had a good start. For the next two days, the progress of the entire mission became smoother.
Zhu Yilong and Bai Yu followed the plot of the movie and successfully saved Li Qian, who was about to commit suicide. After experiencing the plot of being attacked in the hospital, they finally convinced Li Qian to take back the Changsheng Dials. They officially completed the series of main missions of the Changsheng Dials within the three-day time limit.
The 500 contribution points from the main mission reward and the Save Capsule were transferred to their account. Together with the contribution points that they had previously saved up, they had exactly 1,000 contribution points.
"The four-day daily missions gave us a total of 200 contribution points. The main mission gave us 500 contribution points, and the side missions also gave us 200 contribution points. It seems that we can only obtain more contribution points by following the main storyline of the movie."
After solving Li Qian's case, Zhao Yunlan went to Shen Wei's office overnight to check their gains. He took out a Save Capsule and said, "Brother Long, we now have enough contribution points. Today is the fourth day. Do you want to go back to the real world?
Do you want to decide? "
Zhu Yilong glanced at the capsule in his hand and looked up at him, "You decide!"
"Why me again?" Bai Yu smacked her lips. "Brother Long, you are not being kind.
Both of our fans say that you always copy my homework. Can't you take the initiative and make the decision? "
When Zhu Yilong heard her mention "copy my homework," he lowered his head and smiled helplessly. "You can make the decision for this kind of thing. Besides, you should already have an answer in your heart, right?"
"Brother Long knows me best!" Bai Yu pointed at Zhu Yilong with her index finger and smiled knowingly.
He stroked the mark on his left wrist and summoned the system interface. He asked, "System, how do I use this thing?"
[Press the Save Capsule and you can choose to save the current time. A panel will pop up and you can choose whether to spend contribution points to return to the real world.]
Bai Yu nodded and looked at Zhu Yilong, "Shall I start?"
Zhu Yilong nodded his head with a solemn expression.
Bai Yu didn't hesitate anymore. She pressed the capsule with her thumb and a transparent selection window instantly appeared in front of her.
[Do you want to save the current time?]
[Yes] [No]
"Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, a split screen labeled [Save] immediately appeared on the system interface. A timeline was generated at the top. It was the current day and year and was accurate to the minute and second.
There were two options below this timeline. One was [Load File] and the other was [Return to Reality]. Bai Yu raised his hand and clicked on the latter option. A system prompt appeared in front of him.
[Do you want to spend 1000 contribution points to return to the real world?
Note: This option is irreversible. The current scene will be frozen along with the save. The host will return to the real world and must return within 48 hours. Otherwise, the system will force the host to return to the real world.]
Bai Yu looked up at Zhu Yilong. The latter was also staring at him and nodding slightly.
"Yes."
[Operation complete. Initiating teleportation. Welcome back to the real world. Goodbye.]
Following the system prompt, the two of them felt their vision blur. After a moment of dizziness, they lost consciousness.
Bai Yu woke up to a gentle melody.
He was very familiar with this melody. It was the sound of his alarm clock.
His body had a conditioned response to this melody. As soon as the melody started to play, his brain automatically woke him up, indicating that it was time to get up.
Bai Yu slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying on the big bed in the hotel. The curtains in the room were tightly closed and only a little light could be seen.
The small night light in the room was still on dutifully. Bai Yu sat up and took a look at the watch on the bedside table. It was 5: 30 in the morning. It was the time when he was usually ready to get up.
"Am I back?"
He sat at the head of the bed and looked around the room with the help of the small night light. For a moment, he felt that the room that he had stayed in for several days was a little unfamiliar.
Bai Yu put on his slippers and got out of bed. He walked to the window and pulled open the curtains. He squinted slightly because of the glaring light outside the window.
There were already pedestrians and cars rushing back and forth on the road outside the window. It looked very lively.
Bai Yu looked at it for a moment and raised his left hand. He found that the feather mark on his wrist had disappeared. He could not help but be slightly surprised.
