Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

“All takeout services in the city must cease immediately.”

This was the only thing Tang You'ai could do.

He didn't know if there were similar bakeries, nor could he check them one by one.

Time was running out.

From the beginning, he had made a huge mistake; they hadn't given this anomaly enough importance.

He suddenly remembered the cake he had casually thrown away that day, and his expression completely froze.

It shouldn't be! If Zhang Jingtian was inexperienced, how could he have thrown that thing away directly!

Or was it that he was still affected by the strange fragrance at the time, so he directly ignored the harmfulness of that thing?

Tang You'ai could no longer verify why he had made so many mistakes.

And now, seeing that his team members, a group of Card Makers, had already been corroded and affected, Tang You'ai realized how terrifying this incident was.

“Send out a notice, telling all citizens to pay attention to their diet and not to eat food given by strangers. If you have already received takeout, be sure to check it carefully.

If you find any problems, throw it away immediately! Oh, and remind everyone to wear masks!”

The monster at the source seemed to be bewitching people through fragrance, so masks could at least weaken its power.

After Tang You'ai had arranged everything, he saw that Zhang Jingtian had called him many times.

“This kid, did he discover something again?”

Tang You'ai frowned and immediately called Zhang Jingtian back.

“Director Tang, you finally answered my phone.”

On the other end of the phone, accompanied by Zhang Jingtian's panting, he seemed to have just experienced a long run.

“What's wrong with you? Are you okay!” Tang You'ai asked in a low voice.

“I have some clues here. I roughly know what the source of this incident is. We need to find that old lady.”

“Old lady?” Tang You'ai clicked his tongue and suddenly reacted: “Are you talking about the one who killed the cats and dogs in the park?”

“Yes! But she should have eaten the cats and dogs. But before that, she must have eaten something else.”

Zhang Jingtian guessed that the thing was probably Black Tai Sui.

But if he said it, Tang You'ai probably wouldn't understand what it was.

“Okay, I'll help you find her. But you'd better not follow up on this matter; it's very dangerous. I have to change its rating to two stars.”

The Security Bureau uses star ratings to classify such dangerous incidents. This rating not only represents the degree of danger but is also linked to its rewards.

After all, often, these incidents will be commissioned, allowing more Card Makers to participate and help solve them quickly.

From one star to five stars, the increase in difficulty for each star is enormous.

One star represents personal harm, which basically a few Card Makers can solve.

At first, Tang You'ai thought this incident was just one star.

Two stars represent city-level harm, meaning that if it is not controlled, it may cause harm to the entire city.

The previous Joy Lake was like this.

Three stars represent district-level harm, which is quite terrifying and even requires reporting to the top levels of the Dragon Kingdom.

Four stars are national-level harm, which hasn't occurred for several years.

As for five stars, it is basically equivalent to human extinction. This level has not yet appeared.

So Tang You'ai believes that if this incident is not handled properly, its final result will be the same as the last Joy Lake.

Zhang Jingtian hummed: “Director Tang, don't worry, I cherish my life the most. See, I'm reporting to you instead of acting on my own, right?”

Hearing Zhang Jingtian's words, Tang You'ai felt a little better.

He didn't expect that he would still have to rely on a high school student to provide him with clues in the end.

This made him increasingly aware of what a rare genius Zhang Jingtian was.

Whether it is a blessing or a curse that such a genius could appear in their Lanruo City.

“By the way, Director Tang, what's the situation at the bakery?”

Tang You'ai was silent for a moment before speaking again.

“They're dead. They're all dead.”

“I killed them myself. They also ate that thing.”

Zhang Jingtian suddenly understood why Tang You'ai was so serious.

Tang You'ai on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then echoed: “That's true. If you're okay, why don't you go back and study?”

At this time, Zhang Jingtian stopped to look at his phone. As expected, the public opinion had exploded.

Everyone didn't understand why all the takeout in the city was stopped, and then they were told to wear masks and pay attention to food.

Could it be that someone poisoned the food?

“Everyone is really being protected too well.” Zhang Jingtian looked at the comments under several trending searches, his expression very surprised: “I thought someone would suspect it was the Scourge Legion, but they all think someone maliciously poisoned the food.”

The residents of Lanruo City are not too panicked at the moment, but are just scolding the non-existent poisoner.

Zhang Jingtian didn't know if protecting them in a utopia was a good thing.

It seems that many ordinary people think that the Scourge Legion is no longer a threat.

However, the Security Bureau breathed a sigh of relief. The citizens' reaction was good, saving them a lot of trouble.

The next step was to find the old lady based on Zhang Jingtian's clues.

As for Zhang Jingtian, he refused the suggestion to review.

He felt that in the current situation, if it was not handled well, he would have no intention of studying at all.

Now many of his classmates are asking Zhang Jingtian if there is something fishy about this.

Ordinary people can't see it, but they are still pre-Card Makers, and they are still somewhat sensitive.

Zhang Jingtian naturally couldn't reveal it, after all, this incident was not something his classmates could handle.

When Zhang Jingtian was planning to squat near the park for a few vagrants, Tang You'ai called again.

On the other end of the phone, Tang You'ai's tone was particularly urgent.

“Xiao Zhang, can you come to my house now? I really can't get away. My wife told me that a group of rats ate the discarded cake and then crashed in through the window and bit my daughter!”

Tang You'ai was so anxious for the first time, but he knew that he was now the deputy director of the Security Bureau and the temporary first person in charge of this incident appointed by the higher-ups.

He couldn't leave his post.

Zhang Jingtian also became anxious and stomped his feet: “We should have destroyed it at the time!”

But Zhang Jingtian also knew that if every abnormal food contained Black Tai Sui, even if they roasted it with fire, they probably wouldn't be able to get rid of that thing.

But it also made Zhang Jingtian realize that he was not careful enough in his work.
