The moment the blue flame appeared, several people felt the burning heat on their faces.
The flame was so hot that even the space around it was slightly distorted.
The fat man was surprised and said, "Brother Ze, when did you awaken your ability?"
Qin Ze put away the flame and answered casually, "Not long after the college entrance examination."
Huai Xu habitually said, "You are worthy of being the boss."
"I have seen the Maka tribe once. The core practice of their race is also a kind of flame, but it is not as powerful as the boss."
Qin Ze smiled and passed by.
About the fact that I had to use the fire technique because there were so many cheaters around me.
He didn't want to do it at first, but there were too many cheaters.
The population of Mingzhu City is about 300,000. It is not big, but it is not small.
Because it is close to the sea, Mingzhu City has developed rapidly in recent years.
The most intuitive reaction is that the housing prices in Mingzhu City have been rising again and again.
Near noon, the pursuit team arrived.
After leaving the station, Huai Xu grinned and said, "My ass hurts from sitting in the car!"
Wen Jing looked at Qin Ze: "Where should we start?"
"Let's go to Brother Jie's old employer first. There are some things we need to know." Qin Ze replied, "But before that, I have to go to the toilet."
Qin Ze walked into the station toilet, and less than ten minutes later he met up with everyone and went straight to Brother Jie's company.
After a while, men dressed in different styles walked out of the station toilet one after another.
They walked into the bustling street and soon disappeared in the crowd.
"I am the deputy manager of the company. You can ask me directly if you have any questions."
In the reception room of Brother Jie's company, a middle-aged man who claimed to be the deputy manager met Qin Ze and others.
The deputy manager was a first-level warrior, but he looked very decent.
Qin Ze estimated that Lu Tongtong could beat him to tears with one punch.
The deputy manager did not look down on Qin Ze and his friends just because they were freshmen. Instead, he was very polite and asked the pretty secretary to make a cup of tea for each of them.
"I have a few questions I want to ask the manager." Qin Ze said.
The deputy manager nodded: "Excuse me."
Qin Ze: "What did your company lose?"
The deputy manager hesitated for a moment: "In short... a battery."
"It's just that this battery is quite special. It contains a lot of confidential technology of our company. It took a lot of time to make such a sample."
"And this battery was commissioned by someone. We can't afford to offend the client."
No wonder he was so anxious that he posted the commissioned tasks to Haidu Academy.
It's just that the level of the task was too low after evaluation, so it didn't attract much attention.
Qin Ze continued to ask: "Since it is a confidential product, the defense should be very strict."
"Was there any on-site surveillance on the day the thing was lost?"
"Yes." The deputy manager opened the laptop and pushed it in front of Qin Ze.
The screen shows an empty room, with the palm-sized battery on the central stand.
The surrounding area is covered with infrared blockades, and even a mosquito flying in will trigger an alarm.
There are security patrols in the corridor outside the room 24 hours a day, and each of them is a fully armed first-level warrior.
Qin Ze was very surprised when he first saw this security scene.
Brother Jie was able to take things from such a place, so he must have some skills.
If it were Qin Ze, he could not think of any other way to successfully take things away except for strong attack and shelter space.
"Look carefully, it will be in ten seconds." The deputy manager suddenly said.
Qin Ze and others stared at the screen.
Ten seconds later, the things on the stand suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
The surrounding infrared alarm devices did not respond at all, and the door was not opened.
The battery seemed to have evaporated, leaving no trace.
Qin Ze frowned slightly.
Why does this scene look so familiar?
He thought of four words - shelter space.
Qin Ze secretly glanced at Lu Tongtong next to him. Her reaction was similar to his. She obviously thought of shelter space.
Could it be that it was really done by the buddies in the group?
"Isn't it weird?"
"If there were no surveillance, I would never believe that the battery would disappear by itself."
The deputy manager said.
Qin Ze asked: "Why do you think it was Jie... Fan Mingjie who did it?"
The deputy manager replied: "That night, Fan Mingjie was on duty. In the second half of the night, when the battery disappeared, he also disappeared."
"In order to prevent theft from happening, security guards are in groups of two."
"The security guard in Fan Mingjie's group was found dead in the toilet that night."
"One knife cut the throat."
Hearing this, Qin Ze was sure that it was Brother Jie.
"Does Fan Mingjie have any talents?"The deputy manager shook his head: "No, he is just an ordinary second-level warrior."
Qin Ze stood up: "We have nothing to ask, thank you for your cooperation."
The deputy manager replied: "Next Monday is the company's new product launch, we have paid too much for this project."
"If you can catch Fan Mingjie before the launch, the company will definitely reward you handsomely."
Qin Ze nodded: "We will try our best."
After leaving the company, Wen Jing said: "Fan Mingjie hid his abilities and even concealed his cultivation."
"He chose to be a security guard in this company, maybe he was going for the new product from the beginning."
Qin Ze said lightly: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."
"Tongtong, do you have anything to add?"
Suddenly being named, Lu Tongtong was a little flustered for a while.
"Ah? I... I don't have anything to add."
Huai Xu scratched his hair: "There are too few clues at present, and Mingzhu City is so big, looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"Are we going to the place where Fan Mingjie appeared last time?"
Qin Ze shook his head: "Law enforcement has already conducted a carpet search there, but found nothing."
"Do you think we are more professional than law enforcement?"
Huai Xu said: "Then where to go?"
Qin Ze: "Hotel."
Several people were stunned.
Lu Tongtong opened her mouth slightly, unable to understand.
Fatty asked: "Brother Ze, are you kidding?"
"We have been traveling all the way, of course we have to rest well first." Qin Ze said as a matter of course: "Only after a good rest can we work better."
Fatty and others were convinced by Qin Ze.
As Huai Xu said, Mingzhu City is so big, where can we find someone.
But since Brother Jie took the initiative to expose himself for the first time, there will be a second time soon.
Qin Ze released all his clones, and any movement in the gray area of Mingzhu City could not escape his eyes.
All we need to do now is wait quietly.
In the hotel lobby, Qin Ze and others are checking in.
This is the most expensive five-star hotel in Mingzhu City.
The expensiveness is not only reflected in the decoration service, but also in the security.
The security personnel in the lobby are all level 1.5 to level 2.
Crash——
The hotel door was pushed open from the outside, and a team of law enforcement officers walked in.
"There are suspicious people hiding in the hotel, and we are now searching. This is a warrant."
The leading law enforcement officer took out a document.
Qin Ze turned around and looked when he heard the voice.
Oh, isn't this an old acquaintance?
