Glorious God Throne

Chapter 32

“Are we sure he’s just an ordinary person?”

“We can basically confirm that.”

“Fang Zhi, male, 24 years old, a local from Yuanyang City. All his records from childhood to adulthood are here, nothing unusual. Moreover, he doesn’t know any of the people involved in this case, there’s no connection between them.”

“…According to his statement, he went out for a walk as usual after dinner last night, and then he doesn’t remember anything. The next thing he knew, he was a suspect. That is to say, from about eight o’clock last night to eight o’clock tonight, almost twenty-four hours, his memory is blank.”

“—He lost a day’s memory without knowing it. And just during this day, he committed a major crime that shocked the whole Yuanyang City?”

“Although this sounds like a clumsy lie, all the clues point to this. Several experienced old detectives can determine that he is not lying. There are also many experts in psychology who can testify for him.”

“There are many possibilities now. One, he is a criminal with superb acting skills and a master of psychology, deceiving everyone with his performance—this is not impossible. Two, he is not lying, but was hypnotized, his memory was modified by someone, and the modifier’s technique is extremely sophisticated, far beyond the general sense of hypnosis. Three, in the past twenty-four hours, the one controlling this body was not him, he was just an unlucky guy picked at random.”

“—There’s another possibility, he knows the person behind the scenes.”

“…Then continue the investigation according to these speculations.”

“—I will apply for a special arrest warrant from above.”

At the Yuanyang City Police Station, after an overnight interrogation, the people who were full of fatigue walked into the conference room, their faces solemn.

“We originally thought it was just an ordinary kidnapping case, even if the kidnapper was a bit vicious, we didn’t expect it to be linked to the serial murder case on the rainy night a while ago.”

Chu Xingrui and other members of the Special Case Investigation Team, who were eager to catch the serial killer on the rainy night and did not participate in the investigation of the kidnapping case, rushed back after receiving the news and met with Li Fufeng and others. Chu Xingrui immediately grabbed Li Fufeng who was passing by and asked eagerly, “I heard that the serial killer appeared, is it true?”

Li Fufeng nodded, “It’s true, there’s also video footage.”

During the conversation, all the personnel had already gathered, the door of the conference room was closed, and the video that Li Fufeng and others had watched several times was played on the projection screen in the conference room, and the first to appear was the kidnapper “Fang Zhi”.

However, at the moment, everyone’s attention was only partially focused on this person who was already staying obediently in the police station, and more thoughts were on the serial killer who had run away.

When that black umbrella suddenly appeared in the lens, the people in the conference room who were prepared couldn’t help but concentrate.

In the next moment, the blond man in a black trench coat officially entered the scene, appearing in front of everyone for the first time.

“Although it wasn’t captured in the video, but from that direction, we can guess that he should have entered from the window…” The member of the Special Case Investigation Team who was watching this video for the first time speculated.

Li Fufeng, who had been to the scene at the time, gave a definite answer, “That should be correct, and later he left by jumping directly out of the window.”

Speaking of this, Liu Ningshuang was full of regret.

“…I had guessed long ago that he was not an ordinary person, but I didn’t expect to let him escape in the end.”

Out of caution, the police who arrived at the scene were divided into two groups. Li Fufeng and his group entered the milk tea shop, while Liu Ningshuang, who was more agile, was left behind with another group of colleagues to block the surroundings to prevent the suspect from escaping.

In fact, their blockade was very tight. All possible escape routes, like the back door and windows, were within the blockade range. If anyone came out, they would be surrounded immediately.

But their target was not an ordinary person at all!

They clearly remembered that the moment the blond man jumped out of the window, they were ready to move forward, but in the blink of an eye, the person was gone.

“Can you imagine? A living person, a living person just disappeared under my eyelids!” Speaking of the scene at the time, Liu Ningshuang was still incredulous. She gestured dramatically with both hands, her tone filled with shock, “Really! It’s like seeing a ghost in broad daylight! He just came out of the window, and it was as if someone had erased him directly from mid-air with an eraser! If it hadn’t happened right in front of me, I would have doubted if I was dreaming.”

“—We were all dumbfounded on the spot!”

“How could we possibly catch a person with such abilities?”

The atmosphere in the conference room had become somewhat depressed, and everyone fell silent.

Even among them, there were experienced old detectives who had been fighting wits and courage with criminals for many years. At this time, they couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of powerlessness. After all, this time, they were not facing ordinary people, but truly extraordinary beings.

If the previous speculation about supernatural powers was just a guess, then now the guess has obviously become a fact. How should they, who have no special powers themselves, respond?

At this moment, they felt somewhat at a loss.

An Yuansheng, the oldest and most stable member of the Special Case Investigation Team, spoke up, “This matter is no longer something we can handle. On the way here, I have already reported to the cabinet, and all the videos and other materials have been uploaded to the capital… If nothing unexpected happens, the capital will specially dispatch personnel to establish a new department to deal with supernatural related events.”

“This also includes the supernatural events that occurred in Yuanyang City.”

Hearing him say this, the others reacted, “So this matter will soon be taken over by a new department?”

For a moment, they didn’t know what to feel. They felt both shame and relief, relaxation and a bit of unwillingness.

Probably guessing the thoughts of the crowd, An Yuansheng continued, “But before that, this is our task. No matter what, we have to do our best. If we can analyze some key intelligence, even if it has to be handed over to others in the end, it’s still a contribution.”

Everyone nodded in agreement, showing a look of deep understanding.

In the conference room projection, the short ten-minute video had already finished playing, and then it was the second time, the third time, the fourth time… Everyone watched the video over and over again, wishing they could focus on every detail with a magnifying glass.

The conversation between the blond man and “Fang Zhi” was the most important part, and they analyzed it word by word.

The more they analyzed, the more they felt, this information is so huge!

“First of all, we can determine the identities of these two people…” Yin Xubai almost understood everything after watching it once, “The guy who claimed to be K was just using a pseudonym, the serial killer we’ve been chasing all along is K. As for the other person, he should belong to an organization called the Shadow Council, and is an important member of it, most likely the so-called president.”

“Previously in their conversation, they mentioned Dawn City, and mentioned that the two of them came to this world one after another, so, to speculate boldly, outside our real world, there should be another world where the extraordinary live, isn’t this the setting in web novels?” Chu Xingrui took over, “In the extraordinary world, there might also be countries, regions, cities, and the president of the Shadow Council comes from Dawn City.”

“…Yes, if we follow this line of thought, this series of events should actually be these two people fighting across space.”

In the brightly lit conference room of the police station late at night, everyone was brainstorming, starting to make reasonable guesses based on clues.

In the old city area late at night, Bai Yi, who had staged a “I tear myself” drama, lazily opened the Puppet Master’s diary.

At this time, the people in the conference room had pieced together the whole picture of the incident—

“Assuming that there is another extraordinary world that we don’t know about, long before this, the president of the Shadow Council came to the real world for some unknown reason, and for unknown reasons, other members of the council probably did not descend…”

At the same time, Bai Yi was writing with his pen—

[Beyond the bLUE Star, there exist countless foreign dimensions. Whenever different dimensions overlap due to unknown reasons, abnormal space-time nodes appear.]

[A few years ago, the appearance of an abnormal space-time node brought the uncrowned king of Dawn City to this world…]

……

In the conference room, everyone continued—

“Because he appeared in the real world earlier, the president of the Shadow Council had ample time to redevelop his power and collect information in the real world.”

“The victims of the serial murder case on the rainy night a while ago, and Gong Fang this time, were probably already on his target list…”

[The Puppet Master, who adheres to the concept of embodying the greatest evil and devouring all evil, despite losing all his foundation in Dawn City, did not get discouraged. Instead, he silently hid himself, redeveloped in this brand new world, and started his old business again.]

[He hid in the shadows of the city, contributing to the city’s environmental protection…]

“Shush shush shush shush…”

Smooth handwriting was being written on the notebook.

…..

“Just at this time, K also came to the real world for unknown reasons. Not knowing that the president of the Shadow Council was also here, he just arrived and touched the other party’s intelligence network, was discovered by the president of the Shadow Council, and moved to recruit him—this shows that K in the extraordinary world should be an unorganized individual.”

[The Puppet Master, who originally wanted to quietly clean up all the target garbage, discovered K’s arrival and immediately had more choices.]

[He decided to include this person under his command and strengthen the council.]

……

“Then, it’s the guidance mentioned by K, and the test mentioned by the president of the Shadow Council.”

Yin Xubai added, “If I’m not guessing wrong, K, the serial killer on the rainy night, killing the so-called people who fit his aesthetics, should give him some benefits, perhaps related to his supernatural powers.”

“…So, the president of the Shadow Council secretly used some means to guide him, allowing him, who had just arrived in Yuanyang City and was unfamiliar with life, to quickly find the target that fits his aesthetics.”

“…And in fact, these people are probably already on the president of the Shadow Council’s list. Just like Gong Fang.”

“In this way, the president of the Shadow Council completed the test of K, and by the way, solved the people he wanted to solve.”

[As the former uncrowned king of Dawn City, the Puppet Master understands K’s abilities, such as his extraordinary equipment.]

[When the black umbrella transforms into a gun, its bullets are condensed from the turbid soul energy. The more turbid the soul of each person who dies under K’s hand, the stronger the extraordinary bullet condensed.]

[So, the Puppet Master guided K to find the garbage that should be on his cleaning list, cleaned it up, and completed the test of K by the way, which can be described as a win-win.]

…..

“As for K, he probably didn’t notice at first, but later he probably found something wrong, so he suddenly started killing wildly—we thought this was because of your provocation, King Chu, this is his provocation to us.”

The named Chu Xingrui smiled embarrassingly, and listened to others continue to analyze, “But now it seems that he probably provoked both sides at the same time, we are just incidental. Maybe our carpet-style search and city-wide martial law is exactly what K wants, he might want to force the person behind the scenes to show up.”

[…The Puppet Master accurately received K’s provocation, he realized that the other party had discovered the artificial guidance, which made the Puppet Master happy. It’s worthy of being a member he values, the smart IQ in his head occupies the high ground.]

[So, the Puppet Master decided to give his own response.]

…..

“Then, there was the kidnapping incident. This should be the response given by the president of the Shadow Council. He committed the kidnapping case under the name of K, causing a worldwide sensation, probably wanting K to come to him actively?”

[The Puppet Master actively hooked K in a high-profile manner.]

…..

“Finally, it’s what we saw in the video. The only thing the president of the Shadow Council probably didn’t expect was that K not only did not agree to the recruitment, but even deliberately exposed the existence of the Shadow Council at the expense of others?”

Inside the police station, everyone closed all the clues and finally formed a logical chain that seemed to have no loopholes.

“—But, did he really not expect it?”

The atmosphere in the conference room stagnated for a moment, and everyone took a long breath, “Anyway, at least we are no longer in the dark now.”

“If I’m not guessing wrong, this time is mostly just a tentative fight between the two of them, and they didn’t even take it seriously—knowing that the milk tea shop has been exposed, they definitely can’t stay there for long, let alone expose their hole cards in front of us.”

“…K found the person behind him who was using him, and the president of the Shadow Council also conveyed the intention of recruitment, and both sides achieved their goals.” Yin Xubai, the smartest person, guessed, “Maybe now we are studying their identities here, these two people have already started a deeper confrontation in a place we don’t know.”

The others suddenly felt that he made a lot of sense, “Yeah, maybe they’re fighting now.”

They all showed a solemn expression on their faces.

On the second floor of the apartment in the old city area, the Puppet Master’s diary had already been included in the Shadow Council interface, and the light in the bedroom went out with a snap.

Bai Yi got into bed, yawning sleepily.

While Yin Xubai and others were still staying up late and going bald, the Puppet Master and the man behind K, who were said to be in a fierce fight, had already fallen asleep peacefully :).
