What era is it, still traditional card making

"I don't know either. They locked me in a small dark room. I was very scared at that time. I don't know what happened afterwards. A book with a black cover appeared in my hand."

When Ye Qiong said this, his voice trembled slightly, as if he was still celebrating his survival.
He controlled his emotions very well and tried his best to appear mature.
With the capabilities of the Investigation Bureau, the duel that took place near the small dark room would definitely not be hidden from them.

Therefore, Ye Qiong couldn't be too flustered at this moment, because this was inconsistent with his previous behavior in the small dark room.

Now, a precocious primary school student born in an orphanage is the most consistent representation of the current situation.

Ge Yan half-knelt down, looking Ye Qiong in the eye. At this moment, he also noticed that he had grasped Ye Qiong's shoulders a little too hard, so he loosened his hand in time and then spoke to comfort him:

"Kid, it's okay now. Can you tell me what happened?"

As he said this, he signaled his subordinates with his eyes and asked them to investigate the place where the duel had just broken out.

Judging from Ge Yan's performance alone, there is nothing wrong with his approach.
However, Ye Qiong noticed that when he said he had awakened to become a card master, the other party showed a strange expression.

This is not just an expression of shock, but more of a greed?
Ye Qiong was a little unsure about this. He did not reveal his doubts, but tried his best to play his role. He looked up and asked the man who was much taller than him:
"Um, when can I go back? You guys should be from the Investigation Bureau, right?"

Hearing this, Ge Yan touched Ye Qiong's head and then answered:

"Don't worry, kid, everything is fine."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, asking a woman next to him to come over, and then he said:

"Shumin, take this child back to the police station first. I will take people there to investigate."

"clear."

The woman nodded, then showed Ye Qiong a kind smile and said:

"Let's go. I'll take you back to the bureau first."

"Aren't we going back to the orphanage?"

The woman shook her head and replied:

"The Fengshen Cult is an extraordinary organization. If you were allowed to return to the orphanage alone, something like what just happened would probably happen again. Don't worry, we will inform the dean that you are safe."

As he spoke, he turned on his phone, found a number in the address book, handed the phone over, and said:

"If you want, how about contacting the dean now?"

Ye Qiong picked up the phone and dialed the number.

After a short beep, the call was connected.

A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone. The old woman's tone was anxious. Before Ye Qiong could speak, she stepped forward and asked:

"Hello, is this the Investigation Bureau? Have you found Ye Qiong?"

After hearing the familiar voice, Ye Qiong felt inexplicably at ease.

"Dean, I'm fine."

"Ye Qiong, is that you?"

"It's me, Dean. I'm safe now."

"That's good, that's good. The people from the Investigation Bureau are really reliable. Don't be afraid, kid. Where are you now? I'll come find you right away."

Because Mo Wei spoke loudly, the woman next to her could also hear it. She waved at Ye Qiong and said:

"Let me talk to the dean."

Ye Qiong did not refuse and handed the phone back.

The woman did not avoid Ye Qiong during her conversation with Mo Wei. The content of their conversation was very simple, that is, where Ye Qiong would go next and when they could see Ye Qiong...
From this conversation, it can be seen that the old dean is indeed very concerned about Ye Qiong.

After this call, Ye Qiong felt much calmer. Although the guy named Ge Yan looked at him a little strangely, at least there was nothing wrong with the performance of the other members of the Investigation Bureau.

If they really had any idea about him, they would never have taken the initiative to ask Ye Qiong to call the old dean to report that he was safe.

He also heard the conversation just now.

The next arrangement made by the Investigation Bureau for him was simple.
The woman will first take him back to the Investigation Bureau, where he will stay for a while. The Investigation Bureau will also send a specialist to protect Ye Qiong, and the old dean can visit him at any time during this period.

Ye Qiong had no objection to this arrangement. For now, this was the best arrangement.

He still vividly remembered the performance of the woman named Snake Princess.

His intuition told him that the people of the God-worshipping Church would never let him go so easily.

This escape is not the end, but the beginning.

The woman held Ye Qiong's hand and came to a black car. He already knew the woman's name from the previous conversation.

Gao Shumin, an ordinary staff member of the Investigation Bureau.

Ye Qiong sat in the back seat and asked her:

"Sister Shumin, how far are we from the Investigation Bureau?"

Gao Shumin thought for a moment and quickly gave an answer:
"About twenty kilometers."

"So close?"

Ye Qiong asked back in surprise.

"The people from the Fengshen Cult are really too bold to hide their hideout near the Investigation Bureau."

"Who knows? People from the God-worshipping religion are always bold and daring. It's not surprising that they do anything."

Gao Shumin answered Ye Qiong's questions while driving. She was very patient and did not show any impatience.
On the other hand, Ye Qiong seemed a little uninterested. After asking a few questions, he leaned against the window and slowly fell asleep.

Gao Shumin saw Ye Qiong's condition through the rearview mirror, but she didn't care.
After all, the child has experienced too much today, so it is normal for him to feel tired.

Although Ye Qiong seemed to be asleep, he was actually not asleep. He just closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

The conversation with Gao Shumin just now made him realize the loophole in her words.
Ye Qiong was very sure that his current location was definitely more than twenty kilometers away from Nanhai City.

After he defeated Zuo Wu, he obtained all of Zuo Wu's cards and established connections with these cards.

Among them was the magic card that teleported him away from Nanhai City.

【Sky Transfer】,
This is a purple epic magic card, and the distance it can teleport is far more than 20 kilometers.
Moreover, Ye Qiong knew one thing.
That is, after using [Sky Transfer], Zuo Wu did not stop directly, but chose to summon [Sky Bird] to continue flying forward for a distance.
Based on the above two reasons, it is also certain that he must be quite far away from Nanhai City now, and it is impossible that he is only twenty kilometers away.

So the question is, why did Gao Shumin lie to him about such a simple question? What exactly did this woman want to hide?
Ye Qiong's intuition told him that the next destination was definitely not the Investigation Bureau, but a prison cell that was even more difficult to escape from.
From the time he encountered the investigation bureau members to the time he got on the car,
In fact, there was nothing wrong with the performance of Ge Yan and the others. They acted as if they were heroes who had come all the way to save Ye Qiong.
The key question is,

Why were they able to arrive at the scene so quickly?
You know, it only took him less than half an hour to complete his awakening and fight with Zuo Wu.

It took more than half an hour to get from the Investigation Bureau to the small dark room.
Unless the Investigation Bureau happened to be nearby, it would be impossible to locate and find him so quickly.

At this time, Ye Qiong already had the idea of ​​escaping.

Now there are only him and Gao Shumin in the car.
As long as Ye Qiong summons the contract and takes the initiative to attack, there is a high probability that he can directly control the opponent.

He quietly summoned the contract.
Since Gao Shumin's attention was always on the road ahead, he did not notice Ye Qiong's little action, and he opened the contract smoothly.

What he had to do next was simple, which was to find a card in the contract that could control the other party.

Ye Qiong kept looking through the contract, and soon he found the card he wanted.

【Fairy Princess—Alia】,
As a purple epic card, this card can still have very strong combat power even if it does not activate its ability, which is just right for use on the current field.

The sound of opening the contract could be hidden from a card master with poor concentration.

However, the noise made by summoning card monsters was quite loud. Even though Gao Shumin was still driving, she could still clearly sense the energy fluctuations coming from behind.

After seeing the purple magic circle appear on the passenger seat, she instinctively frowned.

"Enemy attack? No, troops."

As a blue-level card master, Gao Shumin's control over mental power is naturally extremely strong.

She quickly used her mental power to find the summoner of this card.

This person was not far away from him. It was Ye Qiong who was sitting in the back seat.

After Gao Shumin found out that it was Ye Qiong who summoned the card monster, she was very confused and puzzled.
She didn't understand why the child summoned a card monster at this time. There shouldn't be any problems with her performance along the way.

Ye Qiong didn't give her any time to think.

A beautiful fairy holding a long sword walked out of the purple magic circle.

The fairy princess put her sword to Gao Shumin's neck.
Ye Qiong said indifferently:

"parking."

Seeing this, Gao Shumin wanted to use her aura to overwhelm Ye Qiong and make him stop his current behavior:

"Ye Qiong, do you know what you are doing now?"

"I know."

"What you are doing now is attacking a staff member of the Investigation Bureau, which is illegal!"

"I'm only nine years old. I'm a minor."

"this."

When Gao Shumin heard this, she didn't know how to refute it for a moment. After a pause, she continued:
"What about the old dean? If she knew what you are doing now, do you know how sad she would be?"

Ye Qiong heard this, shook his head, and then replied:
"do not know."

"what?"

"I mean, she doesn't know my situation now."

Then he looked directly into the other person's eyes.
As expected, he caught a glimpse of surprise in the other person's eyes.
That is the look of surprise one gets when one's disguise is blown.

The smile on Gao Shumin's face completely disappeared, replaced by a hint of coldness.
What Ye Qiong was doing now and what he had just asked had made Gao Shumin realize that the young man in front of her was very likely to have seen through their disguise.

"When did you find out?"

Gao Shumin asked this question in a cold tone.

"No, you need to clarify one thing first. I am the only one who can ask you now."

Ye Qiong glanced at the fairy princess sitting in the passenger seat.

Suddenly, the sharp sword moved closer to Gao Shumin's neck.

Gao Shumin saw this, without any panic, but spoke calmly:

"The old dean really doesn't know what we are doing now, but we know clearly what she is doing now."

There was no hint of threat in his words.

Through the conversation just now, she already knew clearly that in the eyes of this boy, nothing was more important than the orphanage.

Wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't make good use of such an obvious weakness?

The expression on Ye Qiong's face did not change much, as if what Gao Shumin had just said was not important to him at all.

The fairy princess seemed to have seen through her master's intention. She moved the sword forward a little again, leaving a shallow wound on Gao Shumin's neck.

"I'll say it again, I'm the only one who can ask now."

Such abnormal behavior surprised Gao Shumin.

What's wrong with this guy? Why is he so stubborn? Doesn't he have any emotions at all?
“Our people are near the orphanage”

"I ask, you answer."

Ye Qiong looked at the woman in front of him with a cold gaze, and the sense of oppression he showed even overwhelmed Gao Shumin, an adult.
His eyes were like a wolf looking at its prey, so cold and indifferent that he didn't look like a human at all.

Only then did Gao Shumin realize that the person in front of her was not an ordinary elementary school student. At the age of nine, he had already awakened to become a card master. His talent was even far beyond that of Wei Qing who defeated the natural disaster that year.

She could tell that the murderous intent in the boy's eyes was genuine.
If his next answer could not satisfy the other party, there was no doubt that the young man would decisively order the fairy sitting in the passenger seat to kill her.

"Who the hell are you?"

This time, Gao Shumin no longer tried to seize the initiative in the conversation and answered Ye Qiong's questions honestly.

"Investigation Bureau."

The moment he heard this answer, Ye Qiong thought the other party was playing a trick on him.

It has come to this, and you still tell me that you are from the Investigation Bureau? (End of this chapter)
