Chapter 29

: Hey, isn't this Zhou Ge, the guy nobody cares about?

Just as Qiao Yuan was racing against time to find evidence, his future self stopped due to excessive blood loss from his thigh. On the stairs, Zhou Ye appeared, as if he had heard the noise.

The terrifying crimson sea of ​​fire projected through the window at this moment outlined Zhou Ye's silhouette, giving him a somewhat eerie, demonic appearance, which, combined with his smile, created an extremely unsettling atmosphere.

Behind Zhou Ye was a young man with dreadlocks who had just been on the Ember Floating Vehicle. He was one of the twins in the third squad, whom Bao Bao had mentioned before. His name was Fang Ping, and he was Zhou Ye's best friend.

"Qiao Yuan! How dare you! I knew you'd be influenced by the demon's substitute, and you really did become a devil, killing so many people!"

"According to federal law, killing more than ten people constitutes a particularly serious case. You... you killed them all, sixteen of them. You're dead!"

[Countdown: 10.]

[Countdown: 9.]

At this point, Qiao Yuan stopped what he was doing, and he and his future self looked at it together, and they understood what was going on.

In fact, he always remembered that when he first met Zhou Ye, the other party said he was going to arrest him.

Now it seems it was a trap.

However, the timing of this trap is rather coincidental. Only half an hour and forty minutes have passed in total, so... this was premeditated and probably prepared for several days.

Even if the revolution hadn't happened and he hadn't passed through here, these teenagers would probably have been taken by Zhou Ye to other places to ambush him!

No, he spent the last 20 minutes circling around because the fire was too intense in many places, and there was a risk of thick smoke and secondary explosions. He didn't rush in blindly. Could it be that the other side locked onto his location and lured him there?

Still not right.

He didn't think Zhou had that ability either.

Today's situation is probably just a coincidence; the other party simply placed these people here beforehand.

After all, it was already August 15th, and he was going to the main city on the 19th. With only a few days left, it was only natural for the other party to start making arrangements for these children.

Furthermore, my future self was summoned here because I saw an Ember Floating Vehicle.

That was a brilliant move!

Yan Baobao is a member of the Ember team, and he naturally feels a sense of familiarity when he sees the Ember team.

The only thing that struck him as odd was that these teenagers didn't seem like ordinary children; they seemed like orphans!

He himself came from an orphanage and has a deep understanding of the details in this area.

In the instant he was lost in thought, Zhou Ye pointed to the holographic camera on his shoulder: "Don't explain anymore, it was all recorded. These children were just overly frightened, it was a stress reaction to you. Even if you were wrong to accidentally hurt your child at the beginning, you can't kill someone, Qiao Yuan!"

"You ruthless killer! I told you so, but they didn't believe me, hahahahaha."

"Next, all I need to do is clean up the scene and let the fire outside burn it all down. Even if your sister is the head of the Ember Bureau, it won't matter!"

[Countdown: 3.]

[Countdown: 2.]

Qiao Yuan finally watched Zhou Ye's arrogant laughter and ended the half-hour-long future timeline. There was still one more time left tonight.

Fortunately, once midnight passes, the number of times you can enter the timeline will be refreshed.

Whew, Whew—

He was now sitting in the hovercar, slightly out of breath; the amount of information he had just received was immense.

Let's get going!

After just twenty minutes of exploring, I'm much more familiar with the route ahead.

Although the future line was 15 minutes later, the explosion had already started much earlier. When he arrived, it was already completely destroyed, with flames filling the sky.

As for Zhou Ye...

A murderous glint flashed in Qiao Yuan's eyes.

correct!

There are still half an hour until he goes to the future timeline. He can go ahead and check it out. If it's feasible, he can hide it, record the evidence on his phone, and send the other party to jail.

Given the chance, he wouldn't mind staging a manslaughter that no one would notice!

But this matter cannot be forced, even though he wanted to tear the other party to pieces and grind his bones to ashes right now.

However, the other party is a formal member of the Embers, so it's not easy to force them, and Fang Ping with the filthy braid is still around.

Qiao Yuan pondered for a moment, then immediately drove to the Dafei Training Center in the Meilin Commercial District.

On the way, he also called Hutu, urging him to go to the shallow sea of ​​Haikui District immediately.

He wasn't sure if the artificial shallow sea was safe, but it was definitely safer than the area around Huanxizhou.

"What? Okay, okay, I understand."

Hu Tu didn't ask too many questions. That's how they've always been. Just like Yan Baobao never doubts what he says; she believes whatever he says.

In addition, Qiao Yuan made another phone call to Yan Baobao: "I'm in the car now, heading to the Meilin commercial district to see if there's anywhere to hide."

"Okay, let's activate the Demon Substitute, Qiao Yuan. Don't be afraid, just don't hurt anyone."

"My mission here is very important. I'm escorting the governor of Huanxi Prefecture and can't get away. I'm sorry, Qiao Yuan, I'll come find you as soon as I have the chance."

"It's okay, baby. Just be careful. It's better to stick with the group; they've already moved ahead."

"Well, anyway, I'll sneak off to see you whenever I get the chance. Who cares? If I get punished, I get punished. It's not something I'm supposed to do as an intern anyway."

Qiao Yuan smiled knowingly: "Okay, but it's still too dangerous. Contact me by phone, don't be impulsive, I'll come find you when the time comes."

"Okay, I'll contact you again later."

Just as he rushed into the Merlin Commercial District, the No. 062 psionic factory exploded, instantly turning the world upside down. The storm, like a crimson hand, tore through the darkness, creating a crimson pillar of light. The Moon Community, only one kilometer away, was directly shaken, causing its walls to crack and collapse, teetering on the brink of collapse.

As Factory 062 exploded, flames lit up several more super psionic factories in the distance.

As if in a provocation against Legalism, they first lit a fire to fully ignite it, and then it exploded.

Without turning his head, he took advantage of the chaos in the Meilin commercial district, quickly landed behind the training center, and climbed over the screaming and running crowd into the tutoring center. He went up to the corridor and found a corner to keep watch.

He wouldn't be at ease if Zhou didn't die!

The Meilin commercial district has a high density of mega-structures, making it far more resilient to risks than the Moon Community. Although it has suffered wave after wave of explosions, with external floors cracking and shattering, and even several buildings collapsing, the interior remains relatively stable, especially the Dafei Training Center area.

Time flew by, and no one noticed his presence during that time, nor were there any security cameras nearby.

As the flames spread wildly, one floating building after another in Huanxi Prefecture was set ablaze, but the dozen or so teenagers in Dafei Training Center never left.

Qiao Yuan noticed from the stairwell that the two boys in the lead were talking on the phone with Zhou Ye.

He was patiently recording the screen, but what he was thinking about was how to kill Zhou Ye, which was not easy.

At the same time, various smart electronic products have become somewhat uncontrollable, with computers automatically processing files, robot vacuums starting up, and even mobile phones displaying garbled characters and losing signal.

The boy, who had just finished his phone call with Zhou Ye, grumbled, "What's wrong with all these appliances? Damn it, at least I covered most of what I was talking about."

"Oh my god, the Legalist factory in Huanxi Continent is constantly exploding. Will Brother Zhou abandon us?"

"No way! It's just one person hurt. Don't you know the law doesn't punish everyone? We're all from the welfare home, he'd be more than happy to see us hurt."

"That's true. It seems that the Merlin commercial district is the safest. Since he said he was coming, let's wait and see."

The two oldest boys chose to continue waiting, and the others followed suit.

"Just wait. Brother Zhou said that as long as we complete it, he'll give each of us 1 yuan, and we can even go to the main city with him."

"Yes, yes, he's a member of the Embers, he always keeps his word, I believe him."

Qiao Yuan sighed softly.

These boys were indeed orphans, and they were all mentally immature teenagers.

Back then at the Starry Welfare Home, many orphans wanted to participate in underground boxing matches and associate with other gang members, but most of them ended up dying on the roadside.

Half an hour passed quickly. As an Ember-powered airship descended, Qiao Yuan saw Zhou Ye get out of the car through the upstairs window, dressed in a black mecha suit. Inside the car was Fang Ping with the dreadlocks.

This timeframe is only five minutes away from his future arrival, but it contains a wealth of information.

Moreover, by this time, the training class was empty except for those 16 teenagers.

"That's right, this is it," Zhou Ye said, taking out an A4-sized photo of Qiao Yuan. "Remember this, this is the bad guy. Once you see him, just help me beat him up and catch him. Remember to be ruthless."

"Let's go, I'll move you to another place. I'll say it again, as long as you see this bad guy on the road, notify me and you can take action immediately. I'm a member of the Embers, I can cover for you. You'll enter the main city with the honor of acting bravely and righteously. Especially in the bustling city, you must catch him immediately."

Qiao Yuan recorded all of this on his phone from the stairwell upstairs.

Become!

The evidence is irrefutable!

His phone had been replaced before and was not affected by Cyber ​​God at the beginning of the year.

Killing the other person is difficult; even if he really wants to kill them, it's not the right time yet.

This Zhou Ye is truly ruthless, trying to profit from both sides. The other party emphasized that attacking him in the bustling city was their way of hoping that he would use his demon substitute to wreak havoc in the city.

When these orphans die, he will become a murderer in full view of everyone.

Hmph, Qiao Yuan simply returned the way he came.

He then drove to the main entrance of the Dafei training center and greeted Fang Ping in the ethereal vehicle, saying, "Oh? You're here? Where's my sister?" He then walked over to her.

Fang Ping stared blankly at the dreadlocked man, his hand, which was drinking water, trembled involuntarily, and the mug crashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.

"What's wrong? Are you scared by me? No way, it can't be that serious. What are you thinking?" Qiao Yuan sat down with a half-smile.

At the same time, he turned his head and looked at Zhou Ye, who was still standing there in the training class, leading a dozen or so orphans out.

"Hey, isn't this Zhou Ge, the guy nobody cares about? Need some help?"

He jokingly and harmlessly picked up his phone and dialed Yan Baobao's number.
