Slaying God: I, the insane and witty god

Chapter 752: Night Watch and Tracking, the Team Encounters Counterfeit Banknotes

Zuo Qing left the interrogation room and took a deep breath. The air was filled with a faint smell of tobacco.

Mixed with the depressing atmosphere in the interrogation room, one feels a little heavy.

He walked to the window at the end of the corridor, looking at the brightly lit city outside, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Of course he knew that a veteran like Chen Lu would not be easily defeated.

What I just said was more of a test and a kind of psychological oppression than an interrogation.

The night watchmen always use both kindness and force, and both soft and hard tactics in their work.

Zuo Qing

He turned and walked towards the command room, which was brightly lit.

A huge electronic map occupied the entire wall, dotted with various red and blue dots.

Represents the positions of different monsters and night watch teams.

Zuo Qing walked to the map, scanned it, and finally stopped at a few flashing red dots.

That was the last place the [Masked] team appeared.

"I found you..."

Zuo Qing's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a cold smile.

He picked up the intercom and said in a deep voice, "Notify everyone to lock down all possible hiding places of the Masked Team."

"We must bring them to justice as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Commander!" A crisp answer came from the intercom.

Zuo Qing put down the walkie-talkie, walked to the desk, and picked up a document with Chen Lu's detailed information on it.

He flipped through it carefully, trying to find a breakthrough.

"Chen Lu, Chen Lu, what are you hiding?"

Zuo Qing muttered to himself.

Suddenly, he noticed a line of words on the information: Chen Lu, former logistics director of the [Mask] team, responsible for the team's fund allocation and material supply.

Zuo Qing's eyes lit up. He stood up suddenly, picked up his coat, and strode out of the command room.

Back in the interrogation room, Zuo Qing was holding a document in his hand with an unfathomable expression on his face.

Chen Lu was still sitting there, motionless, like a sculpture.

Hearing the door open, he slowly raised his head.

"Chen Lu, I'll give you one last chance."

Zuo Qing walked up to him, put the documents on the table, and said in a deep voice,

"We have found the traces of the Masked Team."

Chen Lu's body trembled violently, and he looked at Zuo Qing in disbelief.

"Impossible...this is impossible..."

He murmured to himself,

"They acted secretly, how could you have discovered them?"

"nothing is impossible."

Zuo Qing said coldly,

"Do you think the Night Watchmen are vegetarians? Our intelligence network spans the entire country."

"As long as you are in this country, you will not be able to escape from our grasp."

Zuo Qing paused and continued, "Chen Lu, I know you are loyal to the Masked Team, but you also have to think about yourself."

"You are already in a difficult situation. If you continue to resist, you will be subjected to torture worse than death."

He leaned over, leaned close to Chen Lu's ear, and whispered, "Why not confess everything? Maybe you can get a decent death."

Chen Lu's face turned pale. He was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head.

In a hoarse voice, he asked, "How many did you find?"

Zuo Qing did not answer, but took out a map from his pocket and unfolded it on the table.

He pointed to a location on the map and said in a deep voice, "Ningchang County, coastal fishing village. This is where the Masked Team was last seen."

Chen Lu's pupils suddenly contracted, and he looked at the red circle on the map in surprise.

"This...this is impossible..."

He muttered to himself, "How did you find that place?"

"You don't need to know how I found it."

Zuo Qing said coldly,

"I just want to tell you that the [Masked] team has been exposed, and their end has come."

Chen Lu's face became more and more ugly, and he began to breathe heavily, as if breathing had become difficult.

"Is... is it [Nightfall]?"

He suddenly raised his head, stared into Zuo Qing's eyes and asked,

"Did those guys from Nightfall find the clue?"

"It's not just [Nightfall]."

Zuo Qing shook his head and said,

"There are other teams on their way to Ningchang County. This time, you won't be able to escape even if you have wings."

Chen Lu's body trembled violently, and he seemed to realize something.

"When?"

He suddenly asked, his voice hoarse and rapid, "When did they go to Ningchang County?"

Zuo Qing gave him a meaningful look, and instead of answering directly, he asked, "Why are you asking this?"

Chen Lu didn't say anything, but just stared at Zuo Qing. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

There was a strange smile on his face, a smile full of madness and despair, which made people shudder.

"Hahaha...hahaha..."

He began to laugh maniacally, and his laughter echoed in the empty interrogation room, making people feel creepy.

Zuo Qing frowned tightly, feeling a strong sense of unease.

"What are you laughing at?" he asked sharply.

Chen Lu stopped laughing, raised his head, and looked at Zuo Qing with a mocking look.

He said slowly: "You...are late..."

Zuo Qing's heart sank. He vaguely felt that things seemed to be beyond his control.

"Late? What do you mean?" he demanded.

Chen Lu did not answer, but just looked at Zuo Qing with a weird look, and a creepy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth again.

"You'll never... stop them!"

Chen Lu's sinister laughter penetrated Zuo Qing's ears like a poisonous snake, and every word carried a suffocating chill.

His eyes were empty and crazy, as if his soul had left his body, leaving only a body controlled by some evil force.

"They? What them?!"

Zuo Qing roared and grabbed Chen Lu by the collar, his knuckles turning white from the force.

"Speak clearly! What on earth is this?!"

But Chen Lu seemed not to hear.

He just mechanically repeated: "It's too late... Everything is too late... [Mask] can't come back, [Night] can't come back... The Night Watch will definitely lose... Hahahaha..."

His laughter grew louder and crazier, as if it was going to shake the entire interrogation room down.

Zuo Qing felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

He realized that things were far more complicated and dangerous than he had imagined.

"Madman! Madman!" Zuo Qing pushed Chen Lu away, took a few steps back, and stared at him vigilantly.

He knew that he could not get anything out of Chen Lu.

He is now a complete madman, a poor guy completely consumed by despair and fear.

Zuo Qing glared at Chen Lu fiercely, then turned and rushed out of the interrogation room.

He must take action immediately, otherwise everything will be irreversible!

boom!

The door of the interrogation room was slammed shut, blocking out Chen Lu's creepy laughter.

Zuo Qing stood in the corridor, his chest heaving violently, and he felt an unprecedented pressure.

"Damn it! What on earth happened?!" He growled and walked quickly towards the command room.

As soon as I entered the command room, Tan Maoxun came up to me with an anxious look on his face: "Commander, this is bad! The signal from the [Nightfall] team... the signal suddenly disappeared!"

"what?!"

Zuo Qing's face instantly turned pale, and he grabbed Tan Maoxun's shoulders.

He asked sternly, "When did it happen? Where exactly is it?!"

"Just five minutes ago! The last signal showed they were still within Ningchang County. Their exact location... is still being confirmed."

Tan Maoxun stammered, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

"Useless! Investigate immediately! Even if I have to dig three feet underground, I must find the trace of the Nightfall team!"

Zuo Qing roared angrily, his voice echoing in the command room, frightening everyone.

"Yes! Yes!" Tan Maoxun crawled over to make arrangements.

Zuo Qing took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He knew that now was not the time to panic, he had to remain calm in order to make the right judgment.

"Where is the Master? Ask him to lead the team to Ningchang County immediately and make sure to find the [Nightfall] team!" Zuo Qing said in a deep voice.

"The Master has already set off. He brought the [Xuanwu] team and is expected to arrive in Ningchang County in three hours."

"Very good!" Zuo Qing nodded.

"Also, get all the information about Chen Lu. I want to study it carefully, word for word!"

Zuo Qing added that he always felt that there was some important information hidden in Chen Lu's words.

"Yes!"

Zuo Qing walked to the electronic map and stared at the location of Ningchang County.

He felt a strong sense of crisis, as if something bad was about to happen.

Meanwhile, in Ningchang County, a coastal fishing village.

As night falls, the fishing village is shrouded in darkness.

Only sporadic lights flickered on the sea, emitting a faint glow.

Baili Pangpang hugged his shoulders and looked at the closed door with a helpless look on his face: "I say, are we being kicked out?"

"You want us to sleep on the street at this late hour?"

Cao Yuan also looked unhappy. He scratched his head.

He complained, "What a lousy place this is! The people are weird and talk in a weird way. It's really unlucky!"

Shen Qingzhu sighed and walked to Lin Qiye.

He asked softly, "Captain, what should we do now? We can't really sleep out here all night, right?"

Lin Qiye's face was not looking good either. They came to this fishing village.

I wanted to find a place to stay for the night, but I ran into obstacles everywhere.

The villagers were full of hostility towards them. When they heard that they were from outside,

He immediately put on an attitude of keeping people at a distance.

"How about... let's try somewhere else?" Cao Yuan suggested.

"No." Lin Qiye shook his head. "It's getting late now. I'm afraid the situation in other villages is similar."

"Besides, I always feel that there is something wrong with this village. We can't leave easily."

"Something's wrong? What's wrong?" Baili Pangpang asked curiously.

“I can’t explain it, it’s just a feeling.”

Lin Qiye frowned and said,

"The villagers' reactions are so strange. They seem to be afraid of something, or hiding something."

"Afraid? Hiding it?"

Shen Qingzhu's expression became serious.

"Captain, what do you mean...what might be wrong with this village?"

"It's very likely." Lin Qiye nodded.

"We have to tread carefully."

"But... we don't even have a place to live now, how can we be careful?" Baili Pangpang muttered.

Shen Qingzhu's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said, "Captain, how about...we try using money?"

"Maybe they're just worried we don't have the money for accommodation?"

"With money?"

Lin Qiye hesitated.

"They don't look like they're short of money."

"Let's give it a try. There's no other way."

Shen Qingzhu said, "The most important thing for us now is to find a place to stay. We can't just stand here forever."

Lin Qiye thought about it and felt that what Shen Qingzhu said made sense.

He nodded and said, "Okay, let's give it a try."

Baili Pangpang immediately took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket.

He said proudly: "Look at me! Money makes the world go round. I don't believe these villagers can resist the temptation of money!"

He walked to a house and knocked on the door.

With a creak, the door opened a crack, and an old woman stuck her head out, looking at him warily.

"Old man, we are from out of town and would like to stay at your house for one night. This is the accommodation fee."

Baili Pangpang said with a smile and handed over the banknotes in his hand.

The old woman took the banknote, looked at it carefully, and her face suddenly changed.

"You...you actually dare to cheat us with fake money?!"

She screamed, threw the banknotes on the ground, pointed at Baili Pangpang's nose and cursed: "Get out! You liars, get out of our village right now!"

"We don't welcome you!"

Bang! The door was slammed shut, and Baili Pangpang stood there in a daze, his face full of disbelief.

“Fake…fake money?!”

He picked up the banknote on the ground, looked at it carefully, and his face turned pale instantly.

"This...how is this possible?!"

He murmured to himself,

"This money... is obviously real!"

"What's wrong? Chubby, did you succeed?"

Cao Yuan came over and asked curiously.

Baili Pangpang raised his head and said with a grim expression, "Success! They said... the money we gave was fake!"

“Fake money?!”

Cao Yuan's expression also changed.

"How is that possible? Where did you get the fake money?"

"I...I don't know either!"

Baili Pangpang said aggrievedly,

"This money...I took it out of the bank, how could it be fake?"

Shen Qingzhu also came over. She picked up a banknote, looked at it carefully, and her face became solemn.

"This... this isn't just ordinary counterfeit money..."

She murmured to herself,

"There's... a demonic aura on this!"

Lin Qiye's eyes fixed, he walked to Shen Qingzhu, took the banknote and looked at it carefully.

Sure enough, on the back of the banknote, he could vaguely see some fuzzy lines.

These lines exude a faint demonic aura that ordinary people cannot detect at all.

"It seems... there is indeed something wrong with this village..." Lin Qiye said in a deep voice.

"What should we do now?" Cao Yuan asked.

"If they don't let us stay, are we really going to sleep on the streets?"

Lin Qiye looked around. The village was silent, with only the sea breeze whistling in his ears.

He felt a strong sense of crisis, as if something dangerous was watching them secretly.

"Tonight... I'm afraid we won't be able to sleep well..."

Lin Qiye said slowly, his gaze fell on the depths of the village, which was pitch black, as if hiding some horrible secret.

"Let's go and take a look inside the village..."

Before he finished speaking, a creepy laugh suddenly came from the depths of the village.

The laughter was sharp and piercing, like a demon from hell, making people shudder.

"Hehehe... Welcome to... Ghost Money Village..."
