Imperial Capital, a certain governntal agency office building.
Led by the Director of the Public Security Bureau of Xia Country, nurous agency departnt advisors gathered, Cao Yi participated via video conference in the eting room.
The eting room was peaceful, footage of a cultivator thunder-killing a ninja was clearly displayed on the large screen.
Cao Yi stood tall:
"Report to the leadership!
After testing, there were no high-tech loopholes on site.
The ninja’s corpse has been sent to the Imperial Capital
Zhang Xiaoyi, suspected to be a cultivator, has settled in a Daoist Temple, watched over by a sheriff and secretly monitored.
Tourists present at the scene have been appeased, and public opinion is stable.
Please instruct!"
The Security Bureau publicly declared the events were promotions for a Daoist Technique conference and Taiping Mountain.
All high-tech special effects.
There was just an accident, the person acting as the ninja was injured and has been urgently sent to the hospital.
Follow-up news will be published on the Security Bureau’s website.
The Director of the Public Security Bureau is a spirited and upright elder nad He Jingguo.
Minister He, sitting at the head, said:
"We must maintain a proper attitude toward the cultivator and soothe his emotions.
Intensify online supervision, his face must not appear online.
Additionally, the investigative team has already headed to the South Sea, be prepared to welco them."
Cao Yi saluted again:
"Yes!"
Elder He glanced around the room and said:
"Everyone, share your thoughts."
A man in a suit and glasses stood up saying:
"According to the video, the Daoist had no instrunts in hand yet could unleash direct lightning.
Leader, I am a staunch dialectical materialist, but...
seeing is believing, I cannot help but doubt the existence of mystic techniques in this world."
A middle-aged woman picked up a dossier and spoke:
"Since September 1st this year, abnormal events frequently occur in the South Sea.
Large felines have killed people, birds have rioted in the South Sea Forest Park.
Strange people attacked sheriffs, a giant bald eagle battled with an eerie crow.
And now, we have the cultivator thunder-killing ninja event.
These are the incidents known publicly; who knows how many similar events occur secretly in the South Sea."
Elder He frowned and contemplated.
These informations suggest that there must be an unknown side to this world.
Cultivators?
Demons?
What do they want?
Could they be a threat to Xia Country?
Are there any among the extraordinary that ally with Xia Country authorities?
He frowned, asking:
"What is Shushan about, does anyone know?"
A well-prepared history expert stood up:
"Leader, Shushan is an ancient surna.
Legend has it that Master Taiqing, a descendant of Shushan, achieved enlightennt and founded the Shushan Sect.
Shushan disciples make it their mission to slay demons and uphold righteousness.
The particulars cannot be verified before the founding of the country."
Elder He’s mood improved sowhat.
At least there is a force among the extraordinary that supports Xia Country.
After a long while, Elder He sighed:
"It turns out Xia Country has had hidden undercurrents all along.
The authorities are completely unaware!
Not to ntion whether demons and cultivators are real or not.
Those peculiar people suddenly appearing in the South Sea, strange occurrences erupting in the South Sea.
Alas! The South Sea must have experienced sothing, yet we know nothing!
Comrades, this is terrifying!"
Everyone was silent.
Is it terrifying?
Of course, it is terrifying, chilling!
Just like a happy family, parents working, children going to school, living regular lives.
However, two venomous snakes secretly live in this ho.
Hidden in the sofa, the beams, the basent.
One day, the two snakes fight, causing chaos, that’s when the family realizes these two terrifying creatures are at ho.
And you, as the head of the family, haven’t bought any anti-snake goods, not even a knife to kill snakes!
Suddenly, Cao Yi spoke:
"Leader, this might be a major change in heaven and earth, a Spiritual Energy Revival."
Everyone’s eyes turned to Cao Yi on the video.
In the past, if the head of the Security Bureau, Cao Yi, said such superstitious words, he’d surely receive a warning from the system.
Now?
People just want to hear what insights the Director of the South Sea Public Security Bureau has.
Elder He said gravely:
"Tell us in detail."
Cao Yi said:
"Initially, a sheriff in the North District Security Office of South Sea—Wei Ming, proposed this concept.
There were demons on Blue Star once that fell into slumber for certain reasons.
Due to recent years, as humans increasingly destroyed nature, so unknown situations occurred.
After the demons awakened, a series of inexplicable events unfolded.
This situation is terd Spiritual Energy Revival.
Events that defy logic due to Spiritual Energy Revival are referred to as abnormal events."
Everyone nodded thoughtfully.
Supernatural events have supernatural explanations.
The viewpoint of the sheriff nad Wei Ming seed plausible, though unscientific.
Elder He muttered the word ’demons’ and squinted asking:
"How does one explain Shushan?
That little Daoist looks only twenty, could he also be a dormant demon?"
Cao Yi laughed sheepishly:
"I don’t know about that, I can call Wei Ming to South Sea City Bureau for the investigative team to inquire."
Elder He was about to say sothing when a secretary approached, handing Elder He a docunt.
This was the autopsy report of the ninja.
The ninja died in the South Sea at noon, the examination report arrived in the Imperial Capital by evening, showing the authorities’ importance.
Elder He skimd over the professional terminologies he didn’t understand, flipping to the last page.
Looking at the report results, Elder He frowned:
"This ninja consists of mole genes, glass octopus genes, bacterial cloaking among others, what kind of creature is this?"
Moles have the ability to quickly dig holes.
The glass octopus gene allows the ninja’s body to achieve transparency.
The ninja’s night suit is also high-tech, able to absorb light making the ninja’s mostly invisible.
The ninja’s ninjutsu is all enhanced versions of evolved genetic effects.
Upon hearing this, Cao Yi imdiately stood and said:
"I have sothing to report to the leadership, I suspect there is so kind of genetic experint at South Sea Green Grass Sanatorium!
Before the Shushan cultivator appeared, I thought all those abnormal events were caused by genetic experint organizations."
Elder He stared directly into Cao Yi’s eyes:
"Have you investigated? What’s the result?"
Cao Yi said:
"Due to so obstacles, we have been unable to tackle the Green Grass Sanatorium."
Elder He set down the report:
"Investigate boldly!
Cao Yi, you are my student, I have confidence in your abilities.
If the heavens sunken, I will cover for you!"
Cao Yi stood up and saluted:
"Yes!"
...
Night, eight o’clock.
The mayor of South Sea accompanied by leaders gathered in the governntal office building to welco the investigative team.
An officer in administrative attire suddenly received a phone call.
After finishing the call, he approached the mayor and whispered:
"Leader, the investigative team went directly to the Security Bureau."
The mayor was montarily stunned:
"Went directly to the Security Bureau? Don’t they plan to visit the agency building?"
The mayor glanced at the sky outside, it was gloomy, heavy.
After the South Sea’s last autumn rain, winter was about to arrive.
The chilly temperature mirrored the mayor’s heart.
"Finished."
The mayor’s face was ashen.
