"An arrow... can curve?" Mo Fan's eye twitched violently.
Damn! They really did use him as part of their fun again!
……
After dealing with the Crimson Rift Demon and clearing out the remaining Crimson Ling Demons on the island, the group returned to Flying Bird City and explained the situation at sea to Lin Junxian.
But what Ai Jiangtu and his group were most concerned about were the missing children.
Considering the possibility that the municipal government might have problems with this matter, Ai Jiangtu did not mention it to Lin Junxian, but instead went to investigate privately with his team members.
Lü Cheng stayed at the hotel to take care of Mu Ningxue, who was exhausted from using the Ice Crystal Bow.
Working together was very efficient, and by evening they had found quite a bit of information.
"How are you?" Mu Ningxue's face was still a little pale.
“From three years ago until now, we have investigated more than a hundred cases…” Jiang Yu said with a heavy expression as he summarized the information he had gathered.
The expressions on everyone's faces grew increasingly grim, with Ai Jiangtu and Mo Fan radiating murderous intent in waves.
"So, do the mentors know about these things?" Mo Fan asked.
Did the mentors hear about the problems here and send them to investigate, or did the mentors already know about it but have been ignoring it and leaving it as a test for them?
Just for a single test question, we're letting this kind of thing happen?
“I have already reported this to my mentors. They said they only know that there have been cases of missing children in Asuka City, but they don’t know the specifics,” Jiang Yu said.
"That's why we..."
"They know why they don't care!" Mo Fan said angrily.
"Mo Fan, calm down." Zhao Manyan tugged at Mo Fan.
"Feiniao City is just a small city, and it has only just begun to invest and build. There is not much attention paid to it. Not to mention that the five mentors have only known about this for a short time, even if they did know, it is not their place to deal with this matter."
The local military, the local magic association, the hunters' alliance, and the local government are the primary responsible parties when problems occur in the area. As long as these people remain silent, those above will never know.
Everything progresses step by step. If we rely on the people at the top to solve everything, then what happens in a day across the country might not be resolved in a year.
“This matter has now been reported, and the trial committee has taken over. The five mentors have not allowed us to continue contact with them,” Jiang Yu said.
"Will they investigate this thoroughly?" Mo Fan asked.
"Could it be that they're just giving us a perfunctory answer now, and then forget about it later, or make up some excuse, like those corrupt officials in Asuka City who covered up this matter?"
Mo Fan now has serious doubts about the Tribunal.
What happened in the ancient capital? They risked their lives there, even braving the Abyss of Evil, and what was the result?
During the more than half a month he was in court, those people asked him about everything from his childhood to adulthood, including his daily habits and even which foot he stepped with first when he walked!
A bunch of idiots, talking the talk after the event!
Where were the Black Vatican members when they were causing trouble in Bo City?
Where were the Black Vatican when they were causing trouble in the ancient capital?
After the Black Vatican has finished its commotion, will they step in to uphold justice?
He really didn't understand what the trial had done.
Besides coming out afterward to say they would definitely investigate to the end, what else did they do?
They're not there when it's time to fight, not there when it's time to deal with the Black Vatican, not there when it's time to save people, but at other times, these people seem to be everywhere!
Honestly, he now has serious doubts about what Lü Cheng said before.
Was the Black Vatican actually created by these so-called officials?
To highlight their whiteness, a corresponding black was created?
Back in Jinlin Wasteland City, how many powerful figures were behind that madman Lu Nian?
Did those so-called demon-themed experiments also use these infant hearts?
And then there was the Hangzhou incident, where so many people died, such a huge disaster, all because of a corrupt councilor who was only after his own business!
How fucking absurd is this world?!
161. Chapter 159 The Heartless Woman
161.
……
Just as Lu Cheng had said before, the matter in Asuka City ended without a trace. Although all five mentors said that the Magic Association and the Inquisition would continue to investigate, due to Lu Cheng's previous words, everyone had some doubts about the follow-up of this matter.
However, these matters were indeed beyond their control, and although they were worried, they could only place their hopes on the Magic Association.
On the vast Pacific Ocean, the cruise ship sailed slowly.
At first, people could appreciate this magnificent blue landscape, but after a while, even the most beautiful things become tiresome.
There were no people, no sirens, no islands, just water, and more water. The entire sea area, except for the cruise ship beneath your feet, offered no place to stand.
For the first time, Mo Fan understood why people say that working at sea is extremely demanding on patience, and why they say there are many gay men on board!
In this kind of environment, people can really be driven crazy by boredom!
What's even more frightening now is that life on the ship is polarized!
They were incredibly bored on this side, and apart from cultivating, the only way to relieve their boredom was by playing cards. But on the other side of the cruise ship, there was laughter, joy, and a glittering nightlife!
Mo Fan even suspected that Lü Cheng would throw a slut party every night!
"Seriously, can't you water mages make the boat go a little faster?" Mo Fan finally couldn't hold back anymore.
It’s so painful!
This is so agonizing!
It's a double torment, both psychologically and physically!
If everyone were just as bored, he wouldn't be so upset, but when he thought about the debauchery and revelry next door, he felt that Zhao Manyan was actually quite handsome!
This really can't go on any longer!
"Fight!"
The other team members were also struggling to keep up, so they started casting spells together. The water mage exerted force from the bottom of the boat, while the wind mage simulated nitro acceleration, turning the slow-moving yacht into a super speedboat.
"What happened to them?"
Seeing Zhao Manyan and the others suddenly begin to cast spells with all their might, Jiang Shaoxu was somewhat confused.
"Unvented energy needs an outlet." As a military mage, Nan Jue naturally understood these things.
"Oh?" Jiang Shaoxu's expression was subtle.
"Could something drastic have happened between them?"
Nan Jue paused for a moment, then said, "It's not impossible."
She had seen quite a few women in the Dunhuang Military Region. After all, there were very few women in the military, and even if there were, they were more masculine than men. These things simply didn't exist in their minds, and their instincts as women had been erased by the almost insane training.
There are no women in the army, only men and livestock.
"Let's guess who will be the one in the passive position?" Jiang Shaoxu said.
"Zhao Manyan." Nan Jue barely hesitated.
Of the boys over there, Zhao Manyan is the best-looking, with fair and delicate skin. In the event of a special situation, Zhao Manyan would definitely be the one in a passive position!
“I think Jiang Yu is also a possibility,” Jiang Shaoxu said.
Jiang Yu also has the image of a pretty boy. Once this kind of thing happens, regardless of gender, it is the one with more feminine characteristics who will become the passive party.
"What do you think?" Jiang Shaoxu asked, looking at Mu Tingying and Nan Rongni.
Nan Rongni was a little hesitant to speak about this topic, but Mu Tingying didn't shy away from it at all, saying, "It's most likely Zhao Manyan."
Jiang Shaoxu then turned her gaze to Mu Ningxue, "What do you think?"
Mu Ningxue glanced at Lü Cheng, who was fast asleep on the sun lounger, and said, "I think he's the most attractive."
Jiang Shaoxu and the others looked strange.
But in terms of attractiveness, Lü Cheng is indeed the most dangerous.
After all, being handsome to a certain degree can truly appeal to both men and women!
but……
"You've only been out of bed for a few days?" Lu Cheng opened one eye and glanced at Mu Ningxue.
Mu Ningxue's ears turned red, and her legs went weak. "You beast!"
“You didn’t say that in bed.” Lu Cheng turned to the side, looking at Mu Ningxue with some heartache.
"You turn on me as soon as you get out of bed, you heartless woman..."
"I..." Mu Ningxue's expression changed several times, but she dared not retort, fearing that Lü Cheng would say something even more outrageous.
