Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 346: Same Heart, Different Paths (XVII)

"But we confirmed together at the time that he had lost all vital signs," Kong Yi said, "Everyone knows it's definitely not you. First of all, you have a grudge against him, and secondly, judging from the fluctuations of the spatial element left at the scene, the biggest suspects are Xiaole and I, or in other words, everyone with spatial attributes."

At this point, Bing Haoqi also understood that someone used space magic to move David Chang's body, and it must have been done from outside the card world, otherwise it would be unlikely to leave such obvious traces and guide the two to the world of card city.

"I'm not worried about being held accountable," she thought for a moment and said to the two of them, "but why did the person operating from the outside just happen to take away David Chang's body, and not someone else? Why did he just happen to know that David Chang died in your world?"

"We also want to know, so we traced back along the traces left at the scene. We are sure that the clue is in this town." Le Bolian walked out from behind the air translator and pointed to the center of the pit. "We thought we could get some valuable information from a man, but in the end, we got nothing."

Indeed, corpses cannot speak.

However, Bing Haoqi could find a lot of information from the corpse.

“Visit a few more settlements like this and compare the differences between the residents there,” she said.

Hearing this, Kong Yi showed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "You mean, the men here are obviously much weaker than those elsewhere?"

Bing Haoqi nodded: "Yes, this seems to be a rare female-dominated settlement."

"Sounds good?" Leberian looked around again, his eyes slightly surprised. "It would be perfect if there were no men around."

"Yes, that's the problem," Bing Haoqi sneered, "Go west from here and you will find a regular pentagonal city. The only permanent residents in it are women. Recently, some dirty people have sneaked in since the city opened up to foreign trade. All my friends are there."

"They are not in the same group as here?" Le Bolian realized something sharply.

It seems that this person is quite smart now that he has come to his senses.

Bing Haoqi nodded secretly and said, "The different attitudes towards alien species have caused Ziyan Town and Card City to stand on two completely different positions. Ziyan Town dare not abandon some of the dirty things that pollute our gene pool, but Card City can."

Now that things have come to this, she doesn't plan to pretend anymore.

From the very beginning she had never considered those guys as human beings like herself.

But Ziyan Town still treats "them" as the same kind.

To sum it up with a universal saying, it is: Those who are not of my race must have different hearts.

The three wanted to continue exchanging the information they had, but suddenly they heard a series of hurried footsteps, and within seconds they were surrounded by a group of people with weapons.

"The clues came to us on their own." Bing Haoqi shrugged at the other two.

A man walked out of the encirclement and said to them righteously, "You were the ones who committed the crime in the street just now?"

Bing Haoqi looked at the two people beside him.

"It was me," Le Bolian took a step forward and explained, "This is my first time in Ziyan Town. I wanted to ask what local specialties there were so I could buy some for my family, but before I could even find the way, I ran into a thief. I was in a hurry and used too much force, so I accidentally killed him. Who knew that guy was so fragile!"

The leader curled his lips in disdain.

It's easy to say, but roadside surveillance shows that she was very skilled in destroying the bodies and she must have done this many times.

"First time here?"

The leader hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Which settlement are you from?"

"We are not from the settlement," Kong Yi pulled Leberian back and pointed at himself, saying, "She and I are both from a very far country. We happened to pass by here to investigate a case."

This paragraph obviously does not include Bing Haoqi.

"What about you?" As expected, it was her turn to be questioned. Bing Haoqi took out the identity card given by the card city and waved it in front of the other party: "I am from the card city in the west. These two are my old friends. I haven't seen them for a long time. Let's catch up."

The leader nodded: "Okay, all of you come with me."

The team gathered together and tightly surrounded the three people.

Kong Yi and the others couldn't escape even if they wanted to, because their leader had cast some kind of barrier that made all their space-related skills ineffective. It was obvious that they came prepared.

"Just follow the clues!" Bing Haoqi was not panicked at all. He continued to observe the environment of Ziyan Town through the gaps between people's heads.

The residential houses looked quite neat, but Bing Haoqi had lived in the card city before, and the Moltres riot had given her a new understanding of the quality of urban housing. Now when she looked at Ziyan Town again, she felt it was just ordinary.

These houses do not have the ability to withstand large-scale natural disasters and most energy attacks, and are considered dangerous buildings in the card city.

"Hurry up and don't look around!" There was an unexpected push from behind, causing Bing Haoqi to stagger.

She smacked her lips in dissatisfaction, but for the sake of clues, she had to continue to suppress her anger.

Not long after, the three were taken to a house that looked a bit like a security office.

The logo on the leader's clothes was different from that of the others. Bing Haoqi guessed that she was a security captain or something like that.

The security captain pointed to a bench at the side of the corridor and said, "You sit there and wait."

Fortunately, the other party did not make them wait too long, and the result came out soon. Kong Yi and Le Bolian stayed in the detention center temporarily, while Bing Haoqi had to follow the security captain to another place.

"Don't forget to collect clues." Before leaving, she whispered to Kong Yi.

Kong Yi blinked mischievously to show that she remembered it all.
-
"The mayor wants to see you."

The security captain took Bing Haoqi away before telling her where the next destination was.

Bing Haoqi pretended to be calm, but was worried about herself in her heart. She asked A Yao urgently, "Are you here for the Card City?"

A Yao also sounded confused: "I don't know, I'll try to connect to the QY system again."

From the moment she left the Card City, A Yao lost the right to contact Fu Cangzhao. All communication requests were intercepted by the QY system, and even mental power could not be connected.

This time, A Yao was silent for a long time.

In the past, every attempt at remote contact was rejected immediately, but this time there was no response for a long time. Maybe there is a chance?
She felt happy, but at the same time she couldn't help feeling nervous.

We have arrived at the mayor's office.

The other person was a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties. The wrinkles on her face showed how much she had gone through. A lighter scar ran diagonally across her cheek, narrowly avoiding all the vital organs.

"Hello, respected white dove messenger!" As soon as the mayor saw her, he walked up to her enthusiastically and bowed deeply to her.

"Hello, Madam Mayor." Bing Haoqi smiled back at her politely. At this time, A Yao just brought the reply letter.

As soon as he came online, A Yao exclaimed: "Wow, I couldn't get through its firewall every time before, but I didn't expect it to be so easy to talk to."

A flood of information followed.

The mayor didn't get to the point at this moment and was still engaging in boring small talk. This gave Bing Haoqi just enough time to devote some of his energy to digesting this information.
