Use first and repay later: Advance the future cultivation fruits-Chapter 111 - 94, Self-confidence

"The basic situation is as follows," Gong Ming touched his goatee and said solemnly, "For the past two months, the super-partition surveillance satellite A07 has been constantly monitoring the orbit above the entire Lin’an City, but the intelligent monitoring system has never detected any abnormalities."

"That means, Captain Xu Qiu’s disappearance must have occurred in an indoor environment that the surveillance satellite cannot observe or in locations with obstructions."

"But, after the Patrol comrades in Lin’an City searched according to the location and movement trajectory of Captain Xu Qiu’s communicator, it can be certain that Captain Xu Qiu had been to many places before her disappearance, almost covering the entire Lin’an City."

"In the end, she disappeared suddenly at a place that had nothing to do with her, leaving only her damaged communicator behind," Gong Ming said in a low voice.

A silence fell across the conference room.

Lin Qing’s mind stirred, and he suddenly had a guess.

"Captain Xu Qiu went to many places?"

Evidently not skilled in analytical reasoning, the martial fanatic Hu Xianan frowned and said, "Isn’t Captain Xu Qiu just a district Patrol Officer? Her patrol area is just this Upper City District. Why did she suddenly travel throughout Lin’an City?"

Lin Qing pondered and then said, "To be precise, it should be Captain Xu Qiu’s communicator that has traveled throughout the city, right?"

"Indeed, Patrol Chief Lin is correct."

Gong Ming looked at Lin Qing appreciatively and said softly, "The expert group and the think tank have speculated based on the current situation — Captain Xu Qiu’s disappearance should have happened even earlier. It’s very likely that the enemy took Captain Xu Qiu’s communicator and deliberately wandered around Lin’an City to confuse the line of sight."

Hu Xianan, startled, furrowed his brow even more, "The enemy dares to be so brazen? Even if there are gaps in the surveillance system, it’s impossible to just circumvent every single monitor in the entire city, right? Besides, isn’t the satellite still watching from above?"

"Patrol Chief Hu."

Gong Ming shook his head slightly and said, "Although you haven’t trained in the Free Body Series Battle Techniques, haven’t you heard? Once all the Free Body Series Battle Techniques are cultivated to the Instinct Level, one can transform their appearance and physique."

"Are you saying, someone impersonated Captain Xu Qiu and deliberately walked around Lin’an City?" Hu Xianan suddenly came to a realization.

"It’s a strong possibility."

Gong Ming explained, "So, the time of Captain Xu Qiu’s disappearance should be even earlier. It should be around three in the afternoon yesterday, which was the last time Captain Xu Qiu performed iris recognition. After that, she never did it again."

Lin Qing slightly narrowed his eyes.

Impersonating someone else’s iris would require iris transplant surgery, first by removing one’s own iris, which is comparatively difficult to carry out quickly.

However, fingerprints and facial features are easier to deal with. Although many modern facilities require a ’live fingerprint’, this is not difficult to bypass.

He was confident in transforming into the appearance of Xu Qiu, and then use her fingerprints and facial recognition to pass most checks.

"Patrol Chief Lin."

Gong Ming suddenly turned towards Lin Qing and said, "Captain Xu Qiu mentioned to you that the mysterious person she encountered on April 21 could easily defeat her using Free Body Battle Technique and Divine Transformation Battle Technique, right?"

Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, the mysterious person used the instinctive intimidation of the Divine Transformation Series to defeat her in an instant by taking advantage of her instinctual fear."

"It seems then, that the person who impersonated Captain Xu Qiu may also be this mysterious person."

Gong Ming nodded slightly and said, "This person is suspected to be the number one person in charge of the Yuanhong Society, but they did not kill Captain Xu Qiu, perhaps out of caution, or maybe for other reasons."

"What kind of strength does this person likely have?" Hu Xianan asked with a frown, "I heard that they are comparable to a Senior Patrol Chief?"

"That’s just Captain Xu Qiu’s misjudgment, but it should not be possible," Gong Ming shook his head slightly, "Just a person in charge of the Yuanhong Society; if they really had the strength of a Senior Patrol Chief, then Chu Tianyao would not have died."

But he knew in his heart that this was a lie.

Although he wasn’t sure why the higher-ups wanted him to tell this lie, there was definitely some plan, so he went along with it.

"That’s true," Hu Xianan felt convinced and breathed a sigh of relief.

"At least they cultivated the Free Body Series Battle Techniques to the Instinct Level," Gong Ming said softly, "And since they are from the Original Research Institute, they might have some kind of Genetic Ability, not to be underestimated."

"They are quite good," Hu Xianan nodded slightly, but he clearly was no longer as wary.

"Moreover, this person is very familiar with the Patrol’s search operations; perhaps they are also part of the Patrol system."

Gong Ming’s gaze suddenly swept across the room and said, "In the Jiangnan Region, anyone who has learned the Free Body Series Battle Techniques is under suspicion, especially the local people of Lin’an City."

Lin Qing remained calm.

Although he had pretended to be Chu Tianyao and killed Xiao Peidong, he was now the most innocent of everyone present.

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

—Because he was fighting with Chu Tianyao at the time.

And Yuan Anping, sitting next to him, also sat there with an unaffected demeanor.

"However..."

Gong Ming said in a low voice, "One can hide their progress in battle techniques; if they don’t reveal themselves, no one can tell, and the Bright Society and the Original Research Institute can also teach the Free Body Series Battle Techniques, so official records that show innocence can’t prove anything."

He paused, "According to the investigation, the only one who can be ruled out right now is Patrol Chief Lin, and the General Captain of Lin’an City, Yuan Anping, can also be tentatively ruled out."

Lin Qing knew about this already.

Yuan Anping was out of town that day, having left Lin’an City, which in itself was a suspicion.

He knew Yuan Anping had hidden his strength, so naturally, he had also suspected whether the number one in charge might be Yuan Anping.
