Aurora City.
Courtyard.
Chu Muyun took a glance at the ti on the Pocket Watch, lightly closing the tal cover, issuing a crisp "ding" sound.
"It's already almost six hours... still no movents?" Chu Muyun muttered to himself. "It seems, the operation isn't as smooth as imagined."
"Operation? What operation?"
A lazy voice transmitted from the roof. Chu Muyun's brows raised, looking up.
He helplessly sighed. "Every ti you make an appearance, must it be on the roof?"
"The field of vision on the roof is good. If there are enemies approaching, it can be known at the first notice." Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders, a pair of silver Snake Earrings gently shaking. "This is the basic quality of our Path of the Thief, you wouldn't understand."
"Finished busying with the matters over at the Fire-Stealers?"
"Finished busying." Bai Ye's whole person lay on the roof, speaking sowhat exhausted. "Running back and forth between two Realms, perhaps this is the price of a double identity..."
"Then why don't you directly leave the Fire-Stealers?"
"I originally planned it like this, but the Red King said my staying inside the Fire-Stealers can acquire frontline intelligence, this identity has a lot of value... He won't let leave." Bai Ye seed to have rembered sothing, muttering a sentence. "It's ti to let the Red King raise my salary a bit, being a spy is too tiring."
Chu Muyun: ...
"Right, what is the mission you just said?"
"During the period of ti you weren't around, there was another newcor. Now he went to the Aurora Base together with Six of Hearts."
"Aurora Base?" Bai Ye spoke astonishingly. "Even I can't enter that place. The two of them as newcors, is there no problem?"
"How should I put it... The two of them were simply born to infiltrate the Aurora Base. In the entire Dusk Society, only they can sneak in."
"Six of Hearts I can understand, he is very skilled at peration and latent hiding... that newcor, could he also be Path of the Actor?"
"...No, you will know when you see him at that ti."
Seeing this, Bai Ye was also too lazy to question further, instead quietly lying on the roof, lazily letting out a yawn, seemingly preparing to take a short nap.
His eyes that were about to close, suddenly as if perceiving sothing, opened again!
He stared at the endlessly flowing auroras above his head, his brows frowning tighter and tighter...
"Did I see wrongly?"
"What?"
"Just now, the aurora seed to have shaken a bit..."
Chu Muyun was stunned, imdiately raising his head to look at the high sky. The aurora still quietly flowed in the sky, like a piece of gorgeous Fabric fluttering with the wind, enveloping the sky above the entire Aurora City.
"It seems to be a lot paler than just now?" Chu Muyun also perceived sothing wrong. These past few days, he had been paying attention to the aurora's changes all along, because to a certain degree, this could reflect the Lord of the Aurora's status... But Chu Muyun had only not looked for over an hour, and the color and thickness were obviously thinner than before.
"Those two newcors... shouldn't have done any disastrous matters inside the Aurora Base right?"
Bai Ye doubtfully looked towards Chu Muyun.
The figures of Chen Ling and Jian Changsheng erged in Chu Muyun's mind, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly. "Hard to say."
"When I returned to the Aurora Domain, I specifically took a stroll outside. The seawater of the Forbidden Sea has already almost spread to outside the city. Other than the tracks of the Realm train, other places are almost all frozen by cold air. The ti left for the Aurora City is indeed not much anymore."
"This year's Aurora City, is indeed sowhat unusually cold." Chu Muyun lightly rubbed his hands. "Clearly sumr has just passed, yet the temperature is already like it has reached winter..."
"You are so rich, why not turn on the heating?"
"I turned it on ah."
Bai Ye glanced at him, casually tossing out a stone throwing it towards the ground. The stone fell on the earth full of cold frost, instantly sliding out several ters far.
"You call this turned on?"
Chu Muyun blanked out. He looked at the cold frost that had completely frozen the ground since who knows when, muttering to himself:
"Impossible ah... Aurora City is centralized heating, generally speaking it won't casually cut off heating..."
Chu Muyun seed to have thought of sothing, suddenly getting up and walking outside the door.
He had just opened the main door, then seeing nurous residents wrapped in thick clothes, while shrinking their necks, complaining outside:
"What's going on? How co the heating is gone??"
"Yeah... In this very cold weather, not having heating isn't this taking people's lives?"
"Not right ah, I see the smoke of the Boiler Factory burning exactly very vigorously, how co we don't have the slightest bit of warmth here?"
"Are the pipelines broken?"
"I just ca back from the west of the city over there, there's also no heating there. Even if one or two pipelines are broken, it shouldn't affect the entire Aurora City right?"
"Ouch... Quickly restore the heating. In this weather not having heating is fatal."
"I will first go buy so Coal to go back and burn it up myself, the child in the house is freezing terribly..."
"Eh eh eh, wait for , I'm also going to buy so..."
"..."
Seeing this scene, Chu Muyun's complexion sank.
He retreated back into the house, backhandedly closing up the main door, unprecedented solemnity between his brows.
"What's wrong?" Bai Ye asked doubtfully.
"It's bad..."
Chu Muyun raised his head looking towards the sky. "Why must it be exactly at this ti??"
...
"Chen Xin, have you discovered any anomalies?"
"There's none on my side temporarily."
"Don't relax your vigilance, be careful there might be people hidden in blind spots."
"Yes."
Chen Ling wearing an Enforcer windbreaker, was carefully searching on the third floor. He searched past one room after another. After his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the room opposite, he smoothly pushed open that room door.
Inside the room, was a row of neat beds, but the vast majority of beds had no people on them. There was only one figure extending both hands pressing against the top of his head, blankly squatting at the head of the bed, like a strange Mushroom.
Seeing Chen Ling enter, Jian Changsheng's eyes lit up, asking with a lowered voice:
"How is it? Did you succeed?"
"Succeeded."
Hearing these three words, Jian Changsheng finally felt at ease. "Then how should we go out?"
"Now the alert is too strict, unable to find a suitable opportunity." Chen Ling shook his head.
"But if we drag on like this again, sooner or later we will be exposed ah." Jian Changsheng pointed at the binding straps by the bed. "My straps are already broken. In a while when the White Coat Wearers push to do experints again, I won't be able to explain it clearly..."
"Aren't you a Mushroom? Do Mushrooms need to explain?"
"..."
Just as the two were speaking, a few White Coat Wearers pushing a sickbed, slowly walked out from Laboratory 1.
"What are you doing this for?" An Enforcer who was currently searching asked vigilantly.
"Going to process the experintal subject whose experint just failed. The Potion content in his body is too much. After rotting it will cause bacteria to spread. He must be sent to the surface to be incinerated as quickly as possible." One White Coat Wearer answered.
The Enforcer's complexion changed slightly. He lifted the white bedsheet on the sickbed and swept a glance, almost vomiting on the spot, imdiately waving his hand at them:
"Go go..."
As the figures of the White Coat Wearers gradually went far away, behind the door Chen Ling's eyes lit up slightly.
He turned his head looking at Jian Changsheng. "I have a way..."
...
...
