My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Zhang Hao frowned slightly.

It seems that Faceless really needs to replenish its energy right now.

However, the fact that Qin Feng's soul could attract the attention of the Faceless One simply by complaining shows that Qin Feng's soul was of exceptional quality; otherwise, he wouldn't have been targeted so easily.

The two walked and observed their surroundings.

After surveying the surrounding area, it was found that everything was normal except for a faint sense of yin energy in the air.

The local residents were completely unaware of what happened last night and continued with their lives as usual.

Li Zixuan took him to a well-known local breakfast shop, and the two had breakfast together.

"Mr. Zhang, we've basically checked this area. What else do you plan to investigate next?"

Zhang Hao also found it tricky, but next he could expand the scope and screen the surrounding residents to find out who has special talents.

Keep these individuals with special talents under close surveillance; sooner or later they will encounter the Faceless One, who is preying on special souls.

"That's a good idea, but it's too difficult to implement. How are we going to screen so many people?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Hao called Lao Zhang.

When Old Zhang saw that it was this kid calling, he immediately answered.

"Is there any progress? Have you found any clues? Have you caught the murderer?"

Zhang Hao said helplessly, "Even if I'm not an ordinary person, don't treat me like a god. Investigations always take time. Do you think I can see through the truth at a glance and solve the problem instantly?"

Old Zhang secretly regretted it.

This matter seems to be quite tricky. Even this kid couldn't figure it out quickly, and several days have already passed?
Old Zhang never imagined that it would be normal for ordinary professionals to take a year or two to investigate such cases, but he felt that only a few days was a long time and did not think there was anything wrong with it.

It can only be said that he placed too high expectations on Zhang Hao.

"Okay. So, what's the matter that you called for help with?"

Zhang Hao appreciated the other party's straightforwardness, so he got straight to the point: "I do have a favor to ask. I need to conduct a comprehensive screening, checking all the local residents, and focusing on monitoring certain special groups, as they are likely to be the next targets of the mastermind."

Upon hearing this, Old Zhang's expression immediately turned serious.

If this is true, it certainly requires serious attention: "How do you plan to conduct the screening? How do you need our cooperation?"

“That’s right, I need your assistance. Weren’t you promoting that ‘Local Safety’ WeChat mini-program before? Now we need to make it mandatory. I need you to gather the residents together for screening. You can issue a notice requiring all the villages in these urban areas to install the mini-program. I will go with you to promote it on-site and also check who has special talents.”

"Okay, I'll report to my superiors right away. You can start preparing now; we expect to begin screening this afternoon."

Old Zhang is always decisive and efficient; this kind of matter concerning human life and death cannot tolerate the slightest delay. Even the slightest delay could lead to an irreparable tragedy.

Just after 2 p.m., a registration campaign to promote a security mini-program for local residents was quickly launched. Zhang Hao and Li Zixuan disguised themselves as ordinary promoters, patiently guiding people on how to use the application while secretly screening people.

After investigating several urban villages, they still couldn't find anyone with special talents. Li Zixuan was already drenched in sweat from exhaustion, and even speaking was difficult: "This is so exhausting! I never imagined there would be so many people who need guidance! Even the elderly needed to be taught step by step how to follow the mini-program. This job is really tough!"

Zhang Hao remained calm and composed. He surveyed the crowd who had already completed their screenings and gestured for them to proceed to the next destination. "This is the last urban village. We can rest after the screening. Just hang in there a little longer."

Li Zixuan gave an OK sign: "Since the boss has spoken, I will definitely stick to it to the end, no matter how hard it is."

"Very good." Zhang Hao nodded in satisfaction.

Upon arriving at the next urban village, the promotional team was having lunch. The initial work involved landlords gathering tenants, with even children required to register. On-site staff maintained order, allowing them a ten-minute break for their meal.

Zhang Hao and his companion didn't go to a fast food restaurant with the group; instead, they chose a small, clean-looking eatery. The waitress who came to take their order was quite attractive, around twenty years old, but her attitude was arrogant: "What would you two like to eat?"

This attitude made both of them frown. The proprietress happened to pass by and, seeing this, quickly came over to smooth things over: "How many times have I told you to be polite to customers? Why don't you listen?"

"What's there to be polite about? This is my older sister's job, but she insisted that I help her. I have a date with my boyfriend tonight!"

"Don't take advantage of your good looks to mess around all day!"

"Mom, you're so out of touch. This isn't just messing around; it's enjoying the lifestyle of the new era. This is how young people should live! Besides, I can find a rich second-generation boyfriend, unlike my older sister, that ugly duckling, who can't even find a boyfriend!"

"How can you say that about your sister? She just has a scar on her face, she's not ugly!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. Don't worry about me, I'll get to work now."

The pretty woman impatiently tapped the table: "Stop staring! I have a boyfriend. Tell me what you want to eat!"

Li Zixuan looked disgusted: "Is this your service attitude?"

The proprietress quickly pushed her daughter away and bowed deeply in apology: "I'm so sorry, my daughter has a bad temper. I apologize to you both on her behalf."

The proprietress's apology was fairly sincere, and considering it was just a small restaurant, they didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but they were still not entirely happy about it.

After leaving the restaurant, Li Zixuan was still complaining: "I will never come to this restaurant again. The service is terrible."

Zhang Hao casually exposed him: "But you almost licked the plate clean during the meal just now."

"But their skills are indeed quite good," Li Zixuan admitted guiltily.

Zhang Hao didn't say anything more; it's perfectly normal for young people to say one thing and mean another.

Subsequent screening still failed to uncover any individuals with special talents. Could it be that their judgment was flawed? Or is the heavy yin energy in this place simply because the faceless person had previously appeared?

Zhang Hao felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

After finishing her workday, a starving Li Zixuan dragged Zhang Hao to eat. "Mr. Zhang, you've worked so hard today, you should treat yourself."

The fact that the screening yielded no results actually relieved Li Zixuan. It meant that the residents of this area would not be the target of the Faceless Men for the time being, at least their lives were not in danger.

Surprisingly, Li Zixuan chose the same restaurant again. Zhang Hao raised an eyebrow and asked, "Didn't you say you weren't coming?"

Li Zixuan said matter-of-factly, "The taste is indeed very good, but we can barely tolerate the poor service."

This time, they weren't greeted by the same girl as before, but by a new face. This waitress resembled the previous one, but was even more radiant and captivating. Her delicate features and graceful figure made Li Zixuan blush at just one glance. (End of Chapter)
