Glorious God Throne

Chapter 33

July 16th, 9 a.m. Yuanyang City.

Upon waking up, everyone noticed the change in the city, as if it had returned to a month ago overnight.

The topic of the Rainy Night Serial Murder Case on the internet, after nearly a month of continuous discussion, had gradually cooled down. The previous carpet-style search and wide-range investigation only lasted for two days and then disappeared. What replaced it was a sensational kidnapping case.

All sorts of negative information about Gong Fang were dug up overnight, directly occupying the top six spots of the local hot search.

[??? What happened? Wasn’t he supposed to be a well-known philanthropic entrepreneur? Hmm, abandoned his wife and daughter, embezzled, bribed, evaded taxes, even murder and arson came out???]

[The fire at the Xingfu Orphanage was a big deal locally back then. I heard that none of the sixty-three children escaped. At that time, everyone thought it was an accident, but now you’re telling me this might have been man-made? My God, he harmed so many children, hasn’t Gong had nightmares over these years?!]

[I didn’t expect that a kidnapping case would reveal so many secrets. I originally wanted to say that the kidnapper was heartless, even able to harm such small children, and even played games? What the hell! Now? I just want to say, well done boss! If it weren’t for this boss exposing it, who would know that Gong Fang is such a scumbag under his human skin? Strongly request imprisonment!]

[Latest news, Gong Fang has been taken away by the police for investigation. If there are no accidents, he should be going to jail soon.]

[hahaha Satisfying! Let him get more sentences!]

[You upstairs, didn’t you see that the patrolling police have already withdrawn? There’s also no carpet-style search. The attitude of the police clearly indicates that the Rainy Night Serial Murder Case has been solved, either the criminal has been caught, or it is confirmed that he has left the city, anyway, there is no danger in Yuanyang City.]

[Some special cases, the police will definitely not disclose the inside story to the public, this time is mostly like this.]

[I also think so, the Rainy Night Serial Murder Case made such a big fuss, the whole country was alarmed, the inside story must be astonishing. Now the police do not announce it, mostly because it is inconvenient, maybe when the time comes, they will announce the inside story?]

[Anyway, I haven’t done anything guilty, so I’m not afraid. Now I’m more curious about what will happen to Gong’s Group after Gong Fang is arrested? It should be handed over to his daughter to inherit, right? Isn’t it said that his son has no blood relationship with him?]

[Anyway, the stock of Gong’s Group has been falling all the way, it is said that part of the industry will also be investigated, after the investigation, it should be handed over to the young lady, even if the industry of Gong’s Group shrinks a circle, it should be enough for her to live without worry for a lifetime, right?]

[Hahahaha thinking about it this way, I’m satisfied! The wheel of fortune turns, who can escape the heavens! The scumbag father abandoned his wife and daughter and monopolized the family business, and in the end, he went to jail. The young lady was self-reliant and finally regained her family property. From the perspective of the young lady, this is a satisfying female lead!]

[Rich lady, look at me! I have a bad stomach…]

[Am I the only one still worried about the protagonist of this kidnapping case? I heard he’s only ten years old, just got kidnapped and was frightened, then his beloved father is going to jail, and it was also found out that he’s not his father’s biological son, how miserable!]

[My aunt works as a maid in the Gong family, I heard that his mother only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. As soon as she heard that Gong Fang was in trouble, she packed up her jewelry and left directly before dawn this morning, without caring that her son was still at the police station and hadn’t come home.]

[Is this legal blindness? Can she choose not to raise her biological son if he’s underage? Does she want to be charged with abandonment, and go to jail with Gong Fang???]

[Latest news, the young lady expressed her willingness to keep the little guy in the Gong family until he turns 18. But his biological mother must bear the necessary child support.]

[Wow, the young lady is really beautiful and kind-hearted. This is also good, I always feel that it’s unreliable to follow such a mother…]

……

“…At present, the public opinion on the Rainy Night Serial Murder Case has been suppressed, and the inside story of the kidnapping case has successfully diverted other people’s attention. This has bought us some time, before more supernatural events occur and attract widespread attention, we can still control the news within a certain range. Here are the details of this matter, please open the file.”

In a secret base conference room in the Imperial Capital.

Someone stood on the stage, with a lit projection screen behind him.

Those sitting below, without exception, were important personnel of the upper echelons of Yao Country, many of whom had appeared on TV news.

On the most special observer seat on the side, was the nominal but powerless monarch Chu Xingbang and several elders.

“On June 23rd, the first Rainy Night Murder Case occurred in Yuanyang City, and the victim’s body was found at noon the next day…”

With this person’s voice, the corresponding files and photos appeared on the projection screen behind him.

“On June 26th, the second victim appeared…until July 7th, the murderer killed eleven people in half a month.”

“On July 10th, the Special Case Investigation Team arrived in Yuanyang City, and three more victims appeared that night. King Chu deliberately said some inappropriate words to solve the case, and two days later, on July 12th, the murderer killed six more people, and the Special Case Investigation Team began a carpet-style search…”

This person retraced the events that had happened in less than a month in detail, after all, many people in the conference room might only know the general idea and not the specific details.

“Then it was July 15th, which was yesterday, when the kidnapping case occurred, and supernatural events surfaced for the first time.”

“The three supernatural events that can be confirmed at present, first is the most sensational Rainy Night Serial Murder Case…” The person on the stage signaled everyone to open the file, and the projection behind him also appeared, “The confirmed information is as follows—”

On the projection screen, lines of text appeared:

Name: K (suspected code)

Identity: Unorganized extraordinary individual

Appearance: Appears to be a mature male around 27 years old, with light golden hair, almost shoulder-length, deep emerald eyes, suspected to have the bloodline of the Holy Federation or the Chenxing Empire.

Behavioral habits: Likes to wear a black trench coat, carries a black umbrella (suspected to be a weapon with supernatural powers), likes to appear on rainy nights, likes to enter residents’ homes uninvited, self-proclaimed as a traveler, likes to use honorifics, acts elegantly, suspected to have received good etiquette training.

Extraordinary ability: Disappears on the spot, suspected teleportation. (It is speculated that the condition for activating this ability is a rainy night, or it must be in the rain.) (It may also be unrestricted, appearing on rainy nights is his personal hobby.) Uses a black umbrella to attack. (Can transform into firearms, can be used as a sword for close combat.)

Personality simulation: Likes to kill, arrogant and high-profile, conceited, has a strong desire to perform. Does not purely pursue the result of killing, enjoys playing and torturing others more, pursues excitement, will let people go/release people due to a whim, dine with the victims’ families, even if it may bring him adverse effects.

Supplement: On June 17th, a drunkard accidentally stumbled upon the scene of this person’s killing but was spared. Afterward, it was discovered that the crime scene had disappeared. Upon analysis, it was very likely the time and place where the perpetrator first descended into the real world, which had been sealed off.

“This person is extremely arrogant and conceited, without a sense of good and evil. He may have a certain care for children, perhaps related to his experiences. While killing, he enjoys getting feedback from others, just like a performance must have an audience. If he is not subdued by the president of the Shadow Council in the future, he will definitely continue to commit crimes, but the target may not be limited to Yuanyang City…”

The people below all frowned slightly, flipping over a new page of the file, while listening to the person on the stage continue to speak.

“The second case is related to the Shadow Council.”

“At present, we only know that this should be a supernatural organization hidden in the dark. The leader of the organization is likely a lone individual who came to the real world and secretly developed the Shadow Council.” The person on the stage switched the screen, “It’s worth mentioning that a police officer from the Yuanyang City Police Department pointed out to us that on June 17th, a car accident occurred in Yuanyang City. There were factors behind the scenes that were induced by someone. All clues point to an existence on the internet with the code name ‘Doctor’, whose style of action is very suspicious. He suspects that he may be a member of the Shadow Council.”

“…We will re-examine all the cases that have occurred in Yuanyang City over the past few years based on this clue. Perhaps there are traces of the Shadow Council among them.”

“The information currently known is roughly—”

New lines of text appeared on the projection screen.

Name: Unknown

Identity: President of the Shadow Council

Appearance: Unknown

Behavioral habits: Suspected to hide behind the scenes and mainly control others’ actions. Accustomed to layering layouts, good at capturing human weaknesses, and guiding others’ actions. Low-key, cautious, meticulous thinking, does not like to show off. Secretly and silently developed the Shadow Council, without leaving traces for many years. This time, he suddenly violated his character and took high-profile actions. In addition to recruiting people, it is suspected that some unknown event suddenly occurred that made it impossible to continue to develop quietly in an orderly manner, such as an unknown change in the supernatural world. This unknown change may also be the reason why K came to the real world.

Extraordinary ability: Suspected to be related to shadows, can negate attacks in the shadows, can remotely control other people’s bodies. The specific strength and range are temporarily unknown.

Personality simulation: Overly radical “justice” has become evil, has a set of self-justifying moral norms and judgment standards. For the scum of humanity recognized by universal values, whether they have violated the law or not, they will be judged. Under normal circumstances, he will not take action himself, but will guide others to willingly take action. He is suspected of considering himself as the shadow behind the light, a “dark enforcer” with ideals, beliefs, goals, and is very difficult to shake.

Supplement: The Shadow Council under his command is likely a “dark law enforcement organization” hidden in the dark, which cleans up the cleaning targets defined by them as scum through guiding other people’s actions, while they themselves hide in the shadows.

“At present, it seems that the Shadow Council, as an organization, may have a wider range than K as an individual, but because of their style of hiding in the shadows, the impact they cause in front of the public is very slight.” The person on the stage switched the screen, “So, we can investigate slowly, without having to make a big fuss and alarm the public.”

“The last supernatural event only exists in legend…”

As this person’s voice fell, many pictures and text materials appeared on the projection screen.

“It’s a flower shop that exists in legend, said to be able to fulfill the wishes of its customers. Only those who have suffered misfortune and have a strong desire have a chance to see this magical flower shop…”

“And every customer who enters the flower shop will eventually receive a seed from the shop owner. When the seed blooms in the sincere wish, it will bring blessings and good luck to its owner.”

“So far, the only evidence we have is a girl who was suffering from a terminal illness but successfully recovered. We originally wanted to take the flower for testing, but apart from the owner of the flower, no one could touch the petals. And the other seeds brought out from the flower shop, according to the test, are just ordinary seeds, no special features were found.”

The people below were whispering to each other, discussing, and the sound of flipping files kept ringing.

“Because this matter has now spread very widely, we have also consciously done some publicity. Many people have heard about the mysterious flower shop. All major hospitals have terminally ill patients and their families who firmly believe it, as well as other groups, such as the disabled, families of mentally retarded children, etc., many people believe this legend. From those who are most likely to become customers, we are closely watching. Once the mysterious flower shop reappears, we will receive the news at the first time.”

…..

“In summary, we have reason to suspect that there will be more and more supernatural events, which may mean the beginning of a new era.”

“Just like in the industrial age, our Yao Country was the first to seize the opportunity, so we could lead step by step. The Chenxing Empire implemented political reforms earlier than us, constitutional monarchy, but we surpassed them with a more complete and advanced system… The emergence of supernatural events also means new opportunities, we must not miss. This may be our chance to completely surpass other countries!”

“We believe it is necessary to establish a special department to deal specifically with supernatural events, which may be the beginning of a new era.”

This meeting lasted for a long time.

——[Supernatural Affairs Investigation Bureau], this special department that will lead Yao Country forward in the new era, was thus born.

And Bai Yi, who had a good sleep and didn’t get up until the sun was high at noon, was preparing today’s lunch.

We are currently recruiting. CN/KR/JP Translators/MTLers are welcome!
