Chapter 87 Tracking

The underground prison is located on level B6, which is the deepest part of the Bureau of Investigation.

The function of a prison is not only to house criminals, but also to house anomalous entities. Therefore, the atmosphere here is more like a research facility than a prison.

In the monitoring room, Lin Chen looked at Zuo Xia sitting upright on the screen and gently exhaled.

"According to the testimony of the cleaner last night, Bai Duozhi's mind intrusion occurred inside the Investigation Bureau," Lin Chen said. "This means he definitely needed a medium."

"It's most likely human-to-human transmission," Jiang Zhengge nodded. "Just avoid people. Remember, prioritize protecting Zuo Xia's safety."

"Received." Li Zhanyi nodded.

At that moment, the door to the monitoring room opened, and several officers from the Second Section walked in.

"Let me introduce you. This is Xiao Wang, and this is Xiao Zhang," Jiang Zhengge introduced the two operators, a man and a woman. "They are the two with the best grades in the second subject. They are both Level 5 Investigators and also Awakened Psychic."

"Hello, Section Chief Jiang," Xiao Wang bowed slightly, looking at Lin Chen, "Hello, Brother Lin, hello, Sister Li..."

A strong sense of workplace politics washed over him, instantly pulling Lin Chen into a social sphere.

"Hello, hello," Lin Chen said a little embarrassedly, "You don't need to call me brother, just call me Lin Chen."

You look like you're almost a full twelve years older than me, brother... Lin Chen thought to himself.

"That won't do. We have a clear hierarchy. You're a prodigy who jumped from 6 to 3 in less than a month. You're a born investigator," Xiao Wang quickly waved his hand. "Respect, we must respect you. Captain Marcus always uses you as an example when he scolds us."

Marcus was quite arrogant when we first met, but he actually takes me seriously behind my back?

Arrogance has become obsolete, bro.

"Section Chief Jiang, what's the mission?" Xiao Zhang, with his braided pigtails, looked at Jiang Zhengge.

"You two, work with Lin Chen and Zhan Yi to stay close to the hostage," Jiang Zhengge instructed. "Currently, we suspect that Bai Duozhi is unable to infiltrate a Spirit Awakener, so leaving the inner ring to you is the safest option."

"No problem," Xiao Wang nodded.

"I've arranged a ring of shield guards around the perimeter. They'll make sure no bullets hit Zuo Xia's head," Jiang Zhengge said. "I'll clear the way. If anything happens, let me handle it first. You're responsible for protecting the hostages."

"Understood." Lin Chen and Li Zhanyi nodded.

"Then, let's begin!"

"Clatter".

As the prison cell doors opened, Zuo Xia was escorted by Lin Chen to the center circle of the Shield Guards.

"You still haven't caught Bai Duozhi?" Zuo Xia stammered, "I'm dead, I'm dead..."

"Calm down," Li Zhanyi frowned, "How come you're so bold when you're doing bad things?"

"I...I didn't do much bad stuff, did I? I just..."

"Leaving those kids and teachers at school to die isn't a bad thing?" Li Zhanyi was clearly angry. "Or are you saying you don't even consider them human beings?"

After being lectured by Li Zhanyi, Zuo Xia lowered his head and began to tremble again.

"I'm finished...I'm finished..."

Seeing his disheveled appearance, Lin Chen felt no pity for him whatsoever.

This is the kind of person who sacrifices others by saying "we are all pawns," but only realizes fear when they are actually being used as pawns and eliminated.

The procession escorted Zuo Xia through the prison corridor, heading towards the elevator.

In the corridor, Jiang Zhengge led the way, holding a submachine gun in his hand, his expression solemn.

Following his orders, the entire passage was cleared in advance, not even a mosquito was allowed to pass, so that anyone seen could be opened fire immediately.

Throughout the journey, Lin Chen remained vigilant about potential dangers, even preparing himself for the possibility that his bodyguards might betray him.

As a result, nothing unexpected happened until we took the elevator upstairs.

"..."

At the entrance to the interrogation room, the guards lined up in two rows, making way for a passage.

The interrogation room door opened, and a recorder stood in the doorway, holding a notebook in both hands.

She winked at Zuo Xia, then looked at Jiang Zhengge:

"Section Chief Jiang, may we begin?"

"Get ready," Jiang Zhengge waved his hand. "You don't need to take notes today, we can do it ourselves."

"it is good."

The recorder, carrying a notebook, walked past the crowd.

The group did not rush into the room. Jiang Zhengge was the first to enter the interrogation room and conducted a thorough search inside.

After making sure nothing was missed, he left the room:

"It's safe now, let him in."

Lin Chen gently nudged Zuo Xia's shoulder and said:

"Go in."

At this moment, Li Zhanyi's pupils narrowed slightly, and he shouted:

"Stop him! He's going to bite his tongue and kill himself!"

Almost simultaneously, Zuo Xia fell to the ground.

"Ugh! Waaah..."

Jiang Zhengge immediately realized what was happening. He flipped Zuo Xia over and found his expression incredibly strange, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth—

Seeing this, Jiang Zhengge punched Zuo Xia in the face, knocking him unconscious.

Almost simultaneously, Lin Chen turned and chased after him out of the interrogation room—

That recorder is problematic!

She's been possessed by Baiduozhi!

Lin Chen ran wildly around the corner, and when he saw the elevator, the recorder was standing inside, smiling and waving at him.

Bye-bye~

"Ding!"

The elevator doors closed, and the elevator began to descend.

Lin Chen closed his eyes without hesitation, and the image of Captain England's grave appeared in his mind.

When he opened his eyes again, his pupils shimmered with a deep blue light—

"Splash!"

He pulled with both hands to the sides, and the elevator doors were pulled open by the huge magnetic force, revealing the dark elevator shaft.

Lin Chen leaped into the elevator shaft and slid down the shaft while holding onto the rope.

A few seconds later, he landed on top of the elevator, yanked open the emergency exit, and jumped into the elevator.

The recorder was slumped in the elevator, motionless.

Bai Duozhi left.

"..."

Lin Chen closed his eyes and entered the Mirage City to glimpse history.

He saw a nurse enter the elevator after it reached the floor.

The recorder winked at the nurse, who flinched slightly before turning and walking out of the elevator.

The recorder then pointed a gun at his head and collapsed to the ground.

Lin Chen opened his eyes and walked quickly down the corridor of the ward floor, searching for the nurse.

He shuttled between reality and the mirage city, watching the nurse turn into the nurses' station, collapse to the ground, and a doctor come out.

He followed the doctor into the ward and saw the doctor collapsed on the ground, while a patient walked out of the room.

After following the patient down several corridors, Lin Chen's heart tightened more and more.

He recognized the path before him: it led to Litty's ward!

Bai Duozhi realized that Lin Chen was tracking him, and he prepared to go find the hostage!

This demigod clearly had prior information and knew who the suitable hostage was!

He's up to no good for Litty!

"..."

Finally, Lin Chen saw Bai Duozhi switch the body he was controlling to a nurse and then walk into Liti's ward.

He clenched his fist, pulled out his gun, loaded it with non-lethal rubber bullets, and then burst through the door—

"Click...click click..."

As soon as Lin Chen entered the ward, he heard painful groans.

But the sound wasn't made by Litty.

It was that nurse.

She was convulsing on the ground, her expression pained, like a fish out of water.

By the window, Litty was peeking out at the nurse with a curious look on her face.

"Brother Lin Chen," Little Litty looked up at Lin Chen, pointing to the nurse on the ground, "Catch the lolicon!"
