Atlas of Heaven and Man

The matter of Shen Zheng's murder has now been concluded. After all, even the Mutual Aid Society has been wiped out, so there's no need to hide it any further. Those involved who are still alive have already confessed.

However, the investigation results have not yet been announced, so the school doesn't know the specific details.

Chen Chuan learned a lot of information from Wei Jun that night, and he felt it was necessary to mention it. Even if he didn't, they would definitely find out later.

He believed that some people, after learning about this, probably wouldn't ignore it, especially some members of the Fervent Heart Society. Many of them had received favors and help from Shen Zheng, and they would definitely try to find out the whereabouts of his younger sister.

He also wasn't sure how He Xiaoxing would react after knowing.

Theoretically, this matter shouldn't involve He Xiaoxing, but Shen Zheng's death was undoubtedly directly related to it, and the mastermind who murdered Shen Zheng back then was still alive and well in the Central City and wasn't purged in this operation, so he felt that He Xiaoxing might not turn a blind eye.

Cheng Zitong seemed to have thought of something as well. He said, "About this matter, I'll communicate with Lao He later." He organized the documents on the table, put them back in his briefcase, and stood up. "I'll go find the principal to sign first. Just wait for my news."

After Chen Chuan saw him off, he once again devoted himself wholeheartedly to his own martial arts training. At this time, he also discovered that combat was indeed the best catalyst.

Now, when he trains, he has a better understanding of the purpose and direction of his training than before, knowing which areas need to be strengthened first.

After the battle with Luo Qi, his overlap time with the Second Self increased by more than three hours, which was not as much as Tan Wang's gain.

But that was normal. Before the battle with Tan Wang, he had never fought with someone in the Third Threshold. He didn't know what kind of martial arts master would come, but he didn't back down at the time. Instead, he was full of anticipation. At that time, he was fighting to achieve his own goals and for his own destiny.

Before the battle with Luo Qi, he had made ample preparations. This time, he was fighting to overthrow the Mo Lan Corporation. Although it was also for himself to some extent, the excitement in his heart was far less than when he fought Tan Wang.

In fact, whether throwing can cause enough damage is also very important to the choice of tools. Although some hard things can hurt people when practiced to a certain extent, it is obviously not enough to deal with martial artists.

It must be a solid and useful material, and it doesn't necessarily need to be a stone. Using stones is just the cheapest and most convenient to carry around.

He was also thinking about whether to find someone to polish some suitable ones for his use.

After the start of school, time passed quickly, and a few more days passed. When he came out of the dormitory building this day, he saw a student holding something and waiting there.

He recognized Fang Zhiming, so he took the initiative to greet him, "Student Fang."

Fang Zhiming hurried up and said, "Student Chen."

Chen Chuan walked up, "What's wrong? Waiting for me here? Why didn't you call?"

They were all students of the same school. Although one was a Class A student and the other was a Class B student, they often met in the cafeteria and sometimes chatted for a few words. There was no estrangement because of their different treatments.

Fang Zhiming said, "Yes. Student Chen, do you remember the last time my family asked me to give you a name card?"

Chen Chuan said, "I remember. Later, a senior from that company came to find me."

"Yes, that's Senior Min. The senior contacted me before and said that she had some clues about an investigation. She originally wanted to ask Student Chen for your opinion again, but you happened to be away. She felt that if she waited any longer, she might miss the opportunity, so she decided to go first. She said that if she didn't contact me in half a month, she would give you this thing."

As he said that, Fang Zhiming handed over the thing in his hand.

Chen Chuan took it and saw that it was a letter with the graceful handwriting "To Student Chen Chuan" written on it. He thought for a while, put it away, and said, "Okay, thank you, Student Fang."

Fang Zhiming obviously breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that Student Chen received it. I was just worried that it would be too late and delay Student Chen's affairs." After a pause, he looked at Chen Chuan and sincerely said, "Student Chen, I admire what you did, I really admire it..."

He had directly suffered from the Mutual Aid Society. He was almost beaten to death by Zhong Wu during the entrance exam, so he could especially understand what Chen Chuan did.

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Student Fang, I saw you in front of the Judgment Hall that day. I know you came to support me too. Thank you."

Fang Zhiming was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Chuan to see him. He was a little excited and quickly said, "You're welcome, you're welcome. I didn't actually do anything..."

Chen Chuan said seriously, "Your presence is support for me. In the matter of overthrowing Mo Lan Corporation and overthrowing the Mutual Aid Society, there is also your strength. Student Fang, what you have done is far more than you think."

Fang Zhiming looked at him, as if he had been encouraged, and nodded vigorously.

"I've delivered the letter, so I'll go back first. There are still a lot of trainings in the new semester, and my classmates are waiting for me. Student Chen, goodbye."

Chen Chuan nodded and said goodbye to Fang Zhiming. After thinking about it, he turned around and returned to the dormitory, then opened the letter and began to read the contents inside.

"Student Chen, it's very presumptuous to write you this letter. Do you remember the commission I talked to you about last time? There hasn't been any progress since I talked to you last time. It's just that I've recently found some clues. I originally wanted to ask you to confirm, but you don't seem to be at school, so I decided to investigate it myself first..."

"Because some colleagues disappeared when they were investigating this matter, I suspect that the company may be related to this matter, maybe it's the company's upper management, and I even suspect that some of my friends and colleagues are involved in this matter. Among the people I know, maybe only you can be trusted."

"I sorted out the clues in advance and mailed them out. I have already asked Student Fang in advance. If I don't come back in half a month, he will send the letter to you. If possible, can I ask you to accept the email and forward it to relevant experts?"

Chen Chuan thought for a while. Since the letter had arrived in his hands, it was enough to show that Min Lan had not returned in half a month, and this matter was probably not simple. He thought for a while, took out the name card that Min Lan had given him, and tried to make a phone call, but no one answered.

He also called the commission company where Min Lan was, and unexpectedly, the person who answered the phone said that she was there. He asked if he could have her come to the phone, but after a while, the answer was that she was just there, but they couldn't find her for a while, and asked him to call back later.

Chen Chuan's heart stirred slightly, and he hung up the phone.

This situation was very abnormal.

After thinking about it, he decided to go to the post office to take a look.

Following the address and tracking number given in Min Lan's letter, he successfully retrieved the information stored here, but he did not open it to read it himself first.

Now that the national conscription has not ended, it is impossible for him to do other things, and he does not have to do it himself.

After returning to the dormitory, he made a phone call to Director Lei's house. He Nan answered the phone. Hearing that he was looking for Director Lei, he said, "Junior Brother, are you at school? Wait a moment, I'll have Lao Lei call you right away."

Chen Chuan waited for a few minutes, and Director Lei's phone call came, asking, "Student Chen, what can I do for you?"

Chen Chuan truthfully said, "Director Lei, I discovered something and obtained a document that may involve secret religious rituals. You are an expert in this field, so I want to send it to you."

Director Lei's voice became serious, "Is it convenient for you to come out?"

"It's convenient."

"In that case, my car will be at the entrance of Wu Yi in half an hour. Bring the things out and we'll talk in detail when we meet."

"Okay."

More than twenty minutes later, Director Lei's armed special car arrived outside the gate of Wu Yi Academy. Chen Chuan was already waiting here. After seeing him, he directly got into the car with the things, handed the things to Director Lei, and explained the situation he knew.

Director Lei put on gloves, opened the document, and carefully flipped through it. He didn't talk to Chen Chuan about the contents above, but said, "After Mo Lan Corporation came to Yangzhi, they supported a group of cultists. The purpose was not only to disrupt the government's attention, but also to find certain things through secret religious rituals, in an attempt to reverse their unfavorable situation in the Central City."

"They have also arranged many rituals in Yangzhi City. We have now eliminated many of them, but there are still many cults that took Mo Lan Corporation's funds that we haven't had time to eliminate."

"Now that Mo Lan Corporation has fallen, some cults have entered a dormant period and are cleaning up their traces, but that doesn't mean they have disappeared. If they are not eliminated cleanly, they will definitely emerge one by one in the future."

Chen Chuan said, "Is this one of those cults?"

"Most likely."

Director Lei patted the document, "As a group, secret religious organizations need a fixed ritual site, necessary clothing and props, and some special 'secret religious materials'. All of these things require financial support."

He said to the telegraph operator in the car, "Send a telegram, tell Lao Gao to go to Qingyao Company at No. 32 Olive Street in the south of the city, and find three two-meter-high black pillars at the twelve o'clock, four o'clock, and eight o'clock positions within a fifty-meter radius."

"Tell him, don't rush to pull them out, cut out corresponding paper figures according to the number of people in Qingyao Company and paste them on, write the names of the company's employees on each one, and then go into the company to check and see who is still there and who is not."
