Chapter 1079: Chapter 299: Obtaining a New Extraordinary Plant (Part 2)
The Late-Night Investigation Room is not simply an intelligence-gathering machine; its more important role is in achieving investigation gains related to the subjects under scrutiny.
It is precisely by relying on those magical gains that Fang Ze has been able to reach where he is today, step by step.
Therefore, Fang Ze really wants to know whether delegating an assistant to conduct interrogations now will result in decent rewards or if he will be “shortchanged.”
If the investigation gains don’t differ much from his own, Fang Ze truly plans to recruit a few assistants to handle these tedious matters for him in the future…..
…..
anwhile.
Southwestern Administrative Region, Ge Lan State, Yu Feng City.
A four-person office on the second floor of the Investigation Bureau.
An Yan suddenly straightens up from the desk. Possibly because she got up too quickly, her elastic bosom arched into an exaggerated curve.
Standing up from the desk, An Yan cautiously surveys her surroundings with her beautiful eyes, and after confirming that she is the only person in the docunt-filled office, she breathes a sigh of relief.
Then she sits back in her chair, recalling in her mind everything that happened in that magical space.
To be honest, if it weren’t for the Investigation Bureau, which is an official force that knows many secrets of this world, knowing that various strange abilities exist in this world, she would have thought she was dreaming.
Especially, it’s unclear whether it was that space’s magical power or so magic used by the officer who hired her, but An Yan feels her mories about that mysterious space are quickly becoming blurred.
In just a brief second, she has already forgotten the once-clear handso face of that officer in front of her. When she tries hard to recall, she can only rember that he was young, very handso, and exuded a naturally kingly charisma.
And while recalling that officer, the information about the layout and abilities of that mysterious space in her mind is also rapidly vanishing, soon leaving no impression at all.
And what’s most amazing is, although she clearly conducted an interrogation, she can’t rember any of the interrogation’s content or details now.
She only rembers….. it seed she was interrogating a woman? From Xi… Xida State?
“Xida State, Xida State…” Muttering this state na, An Yan quickly turns on the old CRT monitor in front of her, and types on the keyboard to search for relevant information about this place from the Investigation Bureau’s internal database.
Very soon, she sees a lot of information about Xida State.
“Xida State, located in the Eastern Administrative Region… classified as an extrely dangerous area.”
“Multiple Outer Realm demigods descended, the guarding demigod has fallen, and the surrounding two states have fallen.”
“The Eastern Administrative Region area channel is closed, barring citizens from other administrative regions from entering.”
As ti passes slowly, An Yan rapidly skims through Xida State’s recent major news events.
After reading for an unknown amount of ti, she faintly recalls these seemingly familiar materials, as if finding a slight sense of familiarity, and as if rembering a bit of detail.
Just then, suddenly, she feels a slight itch on her back.
An Yan looks down and discovers that her pants pocket is bulging, as if it’s holding sothing.
Reaching in with her hand, in a mont, a piece of precious tal, shimring with a golden hue, appears before her.
Staring at that piece of precious tal of considerable value, An Yan is stunned for a mont, then suddenly recalls that this “night-ti side job” seed to have remuneration, and quite high—up to 4000 Lini for a month, equivalent to her monthly salary.
And after this investigation ended, that officer straightforwardly advanced her half a month’s salary.
Thinking of this, she hastily examines the precious tal in her hand. Quickly, she confirms it is genuine and worth over 2500.
For a mont, An Yan’s hand movents slow significantly.
Clutching the precious tal in her hand, thinking of her young children and elderly parents at ho, her grip tightens all the more….
“Perhaps… this truly is a chance to change my life forever.”
……..
anwhile, in the Late-Night Investigation Room.
Fang Ze looks at the investigation gains in his hands and nods slightly with satisfaction.
[Extraordinary Plant: Lie Rootless Vine]
This plant is a parasitic type of extraordinary plant capable of parasitizing the cochlea of extraordinary creatures.
The plant survives mainly by absorbing the power of laws within extraordinary creatures, and in exchange for the host’s protection and nourishnt, it integrates with the host’s auditory system. When it detects that an entity speaking with the host is lying, it automatically replaces the lying content with “Ababa Ababa Ababa,” thereby alerting the host that the entity is lying.
One must say, a transcendent plant capable of distinguishing lies indeed suits the identity of the deputy director of the Qingping Prefecture Security Bureau.
Moreover, this plant is clearly of a higher level compared to the [Twelve-Winged Angel] Fang Ze once encountered: at least it is no longer a consumable item but can be used long-term.
This rare mind-category plant is an excellent supplent for Fang Ze, who loses his eavesdropping on thoughts and lie-detecting abilities once leaving the Late-Night Investigation Room, allowing him to make basic judgnts on many matters even outside the room.
Of course, although these lie-detection tools are powerful and rare, their drawbacks are also evident.
Firstly, all lie-detection tools or creatures rely on detecting various ntal fluctuations and states of creatures, so if the creature uses even rarer anti-lie detection tools, it will bypass them.
Secondly, these tools can be blocked by law prohibitions. Once soone wears a law prohibition decree, all lie-detection treasures will be unable to detect that creature’s conditions.
Thirdly, lie detection cannot ascertain the truth of events: if the detected creature is fundantally mistaken about an event or had its mory altered, then the lie-detection tools will be misled.
So these tools can only be used as auxiliary judgnts, not as absolute truths.
However, Fang Ze didn’t consider this tool to be of great importance from the start, treating it as a supplent outside the Late-Night Investigation Room, so its use is just right.
Thinking this, Fang Ze doesn’t hesitate, directly planting the vine into his left ear.
The process of planting the Lie Rootless Vine in the ear feels a bit ticklish, but once fully planted, there’s no sensation at all. Fang Ze conjures a mirror to inspect it carefully, noticing only a green vine mark on his left ear auricle, with no other anomalies.
“Seems inconspicuous, not bad, not bad.”
With this, Fang Ze contentedly releases the disguise of the Late-Night Investigation Room. Then he prepares to return to the half-divine realm of the Flower God to check on the believers. The ti He Weidao left him is running short, Fang Ze must seize every mont.
With these thoughts, Fang Ze lays down on the desk and falls into a deep sleep…
…
About ten minutes later, Fang Ze wakes from his slumber.
Imdiately upon waking, Fang Ze feels a great weight on his body, as if sothing heavy is pressing on him.
He instinctively raises his head, seeing the Flower God clinging onto him like an octopus, her head resting in his embrace, mouth slightly open, sleeping adorably…..
Seeing the foolish appearance of the Flower God, Fang Ze truly cannot connect her with those lofty demigods. He shakes his head slightly, pushes the Flower God aside, dons a robe, and gets out of bed to check on his believers’ current situation.
However, as soon as he reaches the door and places his hand on the bedroom door handle, he suddenly hears a clamor from outside the door,
Little Flower Spirits, Little Flower Demons, “Main God, Main God, His Excellency has already slept. You cannot go over.”
“Yes, Main God, we will have His Excellency personally greet you tomorrow morning.”
Alongside their words, there cos a sowhat authoritative woman’s voice, “You insolent creatures! Duoduo is my subordinate god, entrusted to by her mother. She has returned from the real world, and I am not allowed to see her?!”
