Chapter 124: Pan Garden
The e-hailing taxi drove on the road at a moderate speed.
The driver was very talkative. He told Ling Pingan about the urban legends that he had heard recently.
“Young master, you might not have heard of this. There was a huge fire on Jianshe Road the night before yesterday!” Ling Pingan was not sure whether it was a professional habit. Every driver he t were very friendly. As soon as the conversation started, it was often difficult to stop them. And this ti was no exception. “I heard that a newly opened midnight snack shop caught on fire…”
“Even now, the relevant departnts are still setting up a cordon over there. No one is allowed to enter!”
“Soone said…”
“There’s sothing wrong with that midnight snack shop. The owner provoked sothing bad, that’s why sothing like that happened…”
As Ling Pingan listened, he maintained a polite smile.
He naturally didn’t believe these urban legends.
The driver seed to be able to tell that Ling Pingan didn’t believe him, so he said, “I heard so people say that there are still bad things in that midnight snack shop!”
“I heard that there are people from the dragon team who are personally investigating the scene!”
Ling Pingan couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this. “Dragon team! Sir, you’ve definitely read too many novels!”
That was a joke made up years ago.
When the driver heard this, he imdiately put on a serious look. “Young Master, the world is more unpredictable than you think it is!”
“I’ve been driving all this ti, and I often encounter all sorts of strange things…”
“Just last year, a friend of mine accidentally attracted so bad spirits and almost lost his life!”
“In the end, it was the Dragon team who saved him!”
“That scared him so much that he didn’t dare to accept bookings at night!”
At this point, the driver was also frightened.
Ling Pingan shook his head with a smile.
He saw Ling Pingan’s expression in the rearview mirror and imdiately beca anxious. He said to Ling Pingan, “Young Master, you don’t believe ?!”
“Then I’ll tell you a secret!”
“It’s at the Qingshan Primary School not far from the Federal’s Martyr cetery that you are going to. A few months ago, it was sealed by the mbers of the Dragon team. I heard that the experts of the Dragon team later captured a snake demon that was dozens of ters long from that primary school!”
“That’s why Qingshan Primary School has to be relocated!”
Ling Pingan shook his head with a smile.
Dozens of ters long?
Even the Titan Python was not that long!
Even if he was bragging, he should at least say sothing logical!
However, his facial expression made the driver furious.
Perhaps, Ling Pingan was the first passenger he t who ignored his urban legends like this.
Therefore, he said to Ling Pingan, “Young Master, you don’t believe ?!”
“I don’t believe in these things…” Ling Pingan smiled, polite and firm. “I’m a university student, a materialist!”
The driver seed to have been provoked by the word ‘materialist’.
He looked at Ling Pingan and said, “If you have the guts, do you dare to go to Pan Garden on the outskirts of the city alone tonight?”
“Why wouldn’t I dare to go there?” Ling Pingan smiled.
When he was eleven years old, the things that his friends had tried to challenge his knowledge once again appeared in his mind.
His favorite thing to do was to take a stroll around the haunted houses and houses with murder cases that were rumored to be terrifying.
“Are you sure?” The driver was stunned!
After driving for so many years, this was the first ti he had seen soone who dared to say that he would go to the Pan Garden.
That was a weird place!
“Sir!” Ling Pingan was full of confidence. “I can even go now!”
No place in this world could scare Ling Pingan.
The driver was frightened and shook his head repeatedly. “How would I dare to drive you there?”
“If sothing happens…” he mumbled, “I can’t bear the responsibility!”
He had a child at ho who was still at school-age!
Ling Pingan chuckled, “Then I’ll go by myself tonight!”
“Pan Garden, right?” The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his hand gently stroked the kitten in his hand. “Bastet, I will take you on an adventure tonight, okay?!”
ow!
The kitten responded very cleverly.
“Sir, look, even my cat is not afraid!” Ling Pingan said with a smile.
The driver was speechless.
He did not say anything until he reached his destination.
“Young Master!” When Ling Pingan got off the car, he suddenly rembered of sothing and warned, “Pan Garden is a very strange place, please don’t go there!”
“Thank you for your concern!” Ling Pingan got off the car and said with a smile, “I know what I’m doing!”
Then, he carried his pet and walked towards the cetery for the ritorious personnel of the Federal Empire.
There was a total of two ceteries for the ritorious personnel of the Federal Empire in Jiangcheng City. This one was new, and those who were buried here were the ritorious personnel of Jiangcheng City who had sacrificed themselves for the Federal Empire within a hundred years.
Therefore, the gunpowder atmosphere of war in this cetery was much lighter.
The cetery was filled with all sorts of flowers.
Ling Pingan was at the entrance of the park. After showing his identification card, he obtained permission to enter the park.
He carried the flowers and wine he had prepared and followed the staff’s instructions to a cetery deep in the cetery where the two personnel were buried together.
There were only two blurry photos on the tombstone.
That was because his parents didn’t like to take photos when they were alive. The photos they left were mostly these blurry photos, and only the figure of a young man and a young woman could be vaguely visible.
Ling Pingan placed the flowers, then sprinkled so wine on the graves of his parents.
“I’m here to visit you again!” He squatted and put the kitten, Bastet down.
On the tombstone in front of him were written in block letters. His parents’ nas and titles were engraved on it: Those who had to contribute greatly to the A Grade Mission of Rescuing Kunlun of the Federal Empire, Grand Scholar Ling Qingyun, and Colonel Li Shasha, Rest In Peace!
His father was a well-known virologist in the federal empire, while his mother was a dical expert in the military.
Both of them died tragically while participating in a mission led by the Federal Empire to assist the Kunlun Province.
However, according to the official statent of the Federal Empire, the two heroes of the Federal had saved the lives of millions of people in the Kunlun Province before they died! They had successfully prevented the outbreak of a terrifying super infectious disease!
Unfortunately, they had an accident on their way back. The plane crashed, and they died in the line of duty.
Therefore, what was buried there was only a cenotaph.
At that ti, Ling Pingan was only ten years old. He was muddle-headed and had difficulty in understanding the situation.
Only when he grew up did he realize that his parents were very great.
“Recently, I’ve been living quite well. I’ve eaten quite well and slept quite well…” he kept talking, “But I often forget to visit both of you!”
“I hope you won’t bla !”
“Also, the bookstore left by both of you has been having a poor business recently…”
“Don’t bla for that either.” He said casually.
… … ..
Nee-naw…
Sirens ca from behind.
The driver who was driving a private car from the car-hailing website saw the police car behind him and quickly pulled over his car on the side of the road.
The police car approached him. A burly policeman in a police uniform walked up to his car and took out his police badge. “The Federal Police is handling a case. Citizen, please cooperate!”
He quickly handed over his driver’s license, driving permit, and all his docunts. “Officer, I didn’t break the law, and I didn’t go over the speed limit, did I?”
The police officer took his license but didn’t look at it. He only asked, “What did the custor you just picked up say to you?”
The driver raised his head in surprise. “Sir, police officer… you an…”. He thought he had picked up a fugitive.
“Don’t think too much, answer seriously!” The driver gave him a stern look. “I am a federal police officer. Please cooperate with the investigation and answer my questions seriously according to the law!”
“This is your responsibility, and it is also your responsibility that you could not deny!”
The driver finally reacted.
Federal Police!
From the capital?!
He was suddenly a little flustered.
The police departnts of the federal empire had different levels of authority.
The local police generally only dealt with public security and criminal cases in their jurisdiction.
Only Federal Police officers had the authority to enforce the law in all regions of the Federal, and the cases they were responsible for were usually major cases.
The people they were after were also those who were extrely vicious criminals or individuals who posed a major threat to the country.
For a mont, the driver, who had a lot of imagination, thought of the movies that he had seen.
‘Federal Policen’, ‘Criminal Capture Superman’, ‘The Wire 48 hours’.
The nouns appeared in his mind one after another.
Foreign spies, homicidal maniacs…
He was so frightened that he imdiately told him everything he rembered.
The policeman took the notebook and recorded it seriously. When he was done, he handed the notebook to him. “Citizen, please confirm it!”
The driver took it and looked at it carefully. He nodded. “That’s all! That’s all!”
Then, he asked, “My custor…”
“Don’t think too much about it!” The policeman kept the notebook. “He’s the main protection target of the Federal Empire!”
“Oh…” the driver heaved a long sigh of relief, but his mind suddenly went blank.
“I just recomnded Pan Garden to an important protected target of the Federal Empire?!”
“Am I breaking the law?”
The policeman smiled. “Sir, there’s no need to worry. You haven’t broken the law in this matter!”
Then, he saluted the driver. “Thank you for your cooperation with the Federal Empire for the nation’s benefits!”
“I wish you a happy life with your family!”
Then, he turned around and walked toward the police car.
He sat in the police car. Then, he picked up a walkie-talkie in the police car, and said, “Reporting, the target has entered the cetery! I repeat, the target has entered the cetery!”
“Besides, according to the investigation, the target revealed his intention to head to Pan Garden tonight…”
… … … … ..
“Pan Garden?”
Situ He beca suspicious when he heard the report on the phone.
“It’s Nightmare Garden!” Xia Ping sighed.
“Nightmare Garden?” Situ He frowned. He didn’t know about Pan Garden, but he had an impression of Nightmare Garden.
That was the only special place in Jiangcheng city that was locked down for unknown reasons.
It seed to have appeared suddenly seven or eight years ago.
The residents kept having nightmares and finally alerted the Blackguards.
However, when the Blackguards went to investigate, they used all their thods but could not find out the reason.
That was because there was no psionic energy in the area. Even the trace of psionic energy did not exist.
However, the residents would often dream of a terrifying world where they encountered many monsters.
In the end, they had no choice but to evacuate the residents and then lock down the local area, forbidding outsiders from entering.
However, so people just wouldn’t listen and kept breaking in.
Fortunately, the person who broke in would at most have a nightmare and no other harm. Moreover, as long as they don’t enter again, there wouldn’t be any problems.
Situ He muttered to himself and looked at Xia Ping.
His heart was pounding.
The target was going to Pan Garden?
He was not worried about anything.
But the problem was…
Would there be an accident because of this?
Should he stop him?
Would he have the guts?
Situ He rembered the commander in chief’s warning. “Wait and observe, do not disturb!”
So, he looked at Xia Ping. “Do not alarm…”
“Do not follow!”
“Let’s keep an eye on the caras in the target’s alley and the surveillance caras in Pan Garden!”
“If there is a problem, we will react according to the situation!”
That was the only way!
After all, the target was not soone that he or anyone else in Jiangcheng city could interfere with or dared to interfere with?
“I’ll discuss it with Grand Secretariat Zhang Hui later…” Situ He continued after thinking for a while.
