Chapter 252 New Mission
"Teacher, why do you look so bad?"
In front of the gate of the Aurora Base, Chu Shiduo was sitting in the driver's seat. Seeing Tan Xin coming out of the base with an ugly face, he got out of the car to open the door for Tan Xin and spoke in confusion.
Tan Xin did not answer. He sat in the back seat in silence, looking at the Aurora Base with a complicated look.
"Teacher?"
"... Let's go back to the headquarters."
"Okay."
Chu Shiduo felt that Tan Xin's mood was not right. Without asking any more questions, he drove the car out of the base and approached the law enforcement headquarters in silence.
Tan Xin looked at the streets and pedestrians passing by outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
He suddenly said:
"Where is Han Meng?"
"Han Meng?" Chu Shiduo was stunned for a moment, "Speaking of this, there are some things I need to report to you..."
...
A burst of car horns suddenly sounded from the back.
Han Meng looked back and saw a black car parked outside the White Dove Square. The dark window slowly rolled down. Tan Xin was sitting in the back seat, smiling and looking at him.
Seeing this, Han Meng narrowed his eyes slightly, stood up and walked over there.
"How do you know I'm here?" Han Meng asked.
"I don't know, I'm just going back to the headquarters and happened to pass by here." Tan Xin pointed to the seat next to him, "Get in the car."
Han Meng hesitated for a moment, but still opened the car door and got in. As the car slowly started, Tan Xin's voice rang again:
"I heard that there was a small accident during the court trial?"
"It's okay."
"This matter is my negligence. I didn't expect that some dying cats and dogs would bite people indiscriminately in anger." Tan Xin smiled, "But the final result is still good."
"If you are here to apologize to me, it's not necessary."
"That's not the case. I came to you for business." Tan Xin's expression gradually became serious, "You just came out of the black prison, you have no place to stay in this city, and you don't have any assets. If you have nowhere to go, I can recommend you a place..."
"You said before that you wouldn't order me to do anything."
"This is certainly not an order, just a suggestion from me, you can choose to refuse . "Tan Xin paused for a moment, "I just think that you should be able to find something that interests you in that place..."
"For example?"
"For example, the truth about Aurora City, and... the secrets of the law enforcement officers."
Hearing this, Han Meng's brows gradually frowned. He stared at Tan Xin for a long time and spoke word by word:
"You mean, Aurora Base?"
"That's right."
"If I remember correctly, it is the most confidential area in the entire realm. Even high-level law enforcement officers have no right to enter and exit at will."
"Indeed." Tan Xin nodded, and he and Han Meng looked at each other,
"Then if I say that I have a way to let you in... will you go or not?"
...
In the courtyard, Jian Changsheng sat alone by the pond, holding a fishing rod and yawning lazily.
Chen Ling went to work, Chu Muyun went to see patients, and he was the only old man left in the whole courtyard. It happened that Jian Changsheng was recovering from his serious injury and was full of energy at this moment. But besides fishing, the biggest physical consumption for him was washing clothes...
But he was the dignified Dusk Society [Spade 6], a terrifying existence that caused blood and rain in Aurora City. How could he wash clothes all day long?
Just as Jian Changsheng sighed, the gate of the courtyard was opened, and two figures walked in side by side.
"Why did you come back together?" Jian Changsheng saw this scene from the corner of his eye and asked in surprise.
Chu Muyun pushed his glasses: "We came back together, of course there is something important..."
"Important things?"
Jian Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, and excitement appeared in his eyes!
"[Spade 6], are you ready for your first mission?" Chu Muyun's mouth corners slightly raised.
Hearing this, Jian Changsheng almost cried on the spot. He threw the fishing rod in his hand aside and suddenly felt full of strength. He asked hurriedly:
"What is the mission? Who do you want me to kill?!"
"Not to kill people, but to sneak into a place and investigate some things."
"...A place?"
"How much do you know about the Aurora Base?"
Hearing the words "Aurora Base", Jian Changsheng was thoughtful. After all, he grew up in Aurora City and heard a lot of things.
"It is said that after the catastrophe more than 300 years ago, the original human The order completely collapsed. After the large-scale intersection of the gray world began, only nine human bases remained. After a long exploration by the survivors, the activity area of the base people gradually expanded. Later, after reconstruction and expansion, it evolved into a "realm".
From the Aurora Base, to the establishment of Aurora City, and then to the division of seven major areas... The entire Aurora Realm was the result of the expansion of the Aurora Base as the center. "
"That's right." Chu Muyun nodded slightly, "Aurora Base is your mission target."
"What are we going there for?" Chen Ling asked.
"Confirm the status of Aurora Jun and investigate where the explosives that were secretly transported into it are."
Before, Chen Ling reported to the Dusk Society about the news of the "Hand of Redemption", and the key was the secret transportation of explosives. Now it seems that the Dusk Society has begun to pay attention to this doubt and even took the initiative to send people to investigate.
"Aurora Lord's... status?" Chen Ling read something from Chu Muyun's tone, "What happened to Aurora Lord?"
Jian Changsheng's eyes were also puzzled, as if the name of Aurora Lord was very unfamiliar to him.
"It seems that you really don't know Aurora Lord at all." Chu Muyun sighed, "Do you know why the Aurora Realm can resist the intersection of the Gray Realm?"
"Because of Aurora Lord, his domain suppressed the intersection of the Gray Realm...that is, the Aurora above Aurora City."
"That's right, but now his life has come to an end." Chu Muyun raised his hand and pointed to the sky above his head, "Guess, if Aurora Lord dies, what will happen to this realm?"
Chen Ling and Jian Changsheng were stunned at the same time.
Chen Ling had been a little confused before, why the Aurora suddenly retreated to Aurora City, exposing the seven major districts. At that time, he and Han Meng suspected that there was something wrong with Aurora Lord's status. Now he finally knew the answer.
"Aurora Lord is going to die? How could this happen?" Chen Ling frowned in confusion, "Hasn't he lived for more than 300 years?"
"Aurora Lord is, after all, just a human being... How can a human live for 300 years?"
Chu Muyun shook his head, "If he hadn't voluntarily accepted the injection of medicine more than 300 years ago and fell into 'hibernation', the Aurora Realm would not have come to this day... But even so, this can only delay his aging. People will always die, and this is an insurmountable end.
And now, the end of Aurora City is also coming..."
