Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 468 The Perfect Toast Protection Method Can't Protect Oneself

Zheng Fan returned to Cheng Fei's body from the fabricated black sparrow puppet in Lu Chongming's hand.

The outdoor exercise time is over, it's time to head back. (The "Great God" is currently imprisoned here.)

"Brother Fei? You're awake?"

"Yes, thank you for your hard work." Zheng Fan lay on the stretcher carried by his two underlings like an old man, though he looked more like a patient than an old man.

They were currently in the forest park where Lu Chongming had fought Kang Zhengshan earlier.

They found the battle site without much effort, as the marks left by the main cannon that Lu Chongming had brought out were very obvious.

"How far has it come?"

Xiao Zhao, accompanied by Zheng Fan, said, "Based on Xiao Lu's description, the traces at the scene, and the ability of our brothers to reconstruct some clues, we deduced that the small missile Xiao Lu mentioned should have flown in this direction."

As you descend the slope, you can hear the sound of the river flowing from afar.

“There are traces of that small missile rolling down here. Normally, it should have rolled all the way into the river,” Xiao Zhao said, looking at the flowing river in front of him.

“Normally speaking,” Zheng Fan said.

Black data streams appeared in his eyes, and he reanalyzed the scene by combining the rabbi's eyes with his own basic senses.

"There was a person who waited here for a long time until the thing he wanted fell in his direction and rolled in front of him as he expected. Then he took the thing away, as easily as if he had received his own package, and finally strolled away."

Xiao Zhao frowned and said, "At four o'clock in the morning, deep in this forest park where there were no lights and only starlight, the vampire and Kang Zhengshan were truly fighting for their lives and had no other choice. How could they have accurately sent him in this direction?"

“That is indeed a problem.” Zheng Fan shrugged. This was indeed a point of great suspicion. “Precognition? Fate? Cause and effect? ​​It seems that the other party is not only good at planning and hiding, but also has a very powerful ability that supports him in making so many moves.”

"If that's really the case, how do we fight against such an enemy?" The three words made Xiao Zhao's head spin.

"Of course he wasn't reckless. Otherwise, would he have intentionally given those two captains to us? Does he even know how powerful he is?" Zheng Fan said.

Zheng Fan only started investigating the matter with Xiao Zhao on a whim when the topic of those suspicious clues came up during a chat while he was playing a board game with Xiao Zhao.

If he had discovered the existence and true information of Zheng Fan and Xiao Zhao, then there would be no need for him to send his men to be killed for nothing, given that he had already transferred most of the goods.

His previous actions were clearly just a result of his cautiousness in discovering that the investigators were neurotic and wanted to get rid of him no matter what.

Even if they still have some plans to send someone to deal with Zheng Fan and his group, the other side obviously has more than just internal personnel in the Disposal Bureau. They can easily call on some gangsters or free agents, or even send people to act as roadblocks for a small fee.

Why send two veteran team leaders from the handling bureau, who are not weak in comparison, especially Song Cheng, who can be considered a capable assistant?

The other side realized that Zheng Fan and Xiao Zhao's group were not ordinary, so they had already mobilized their most reliable forces at the time.

This is a more reasonable guess.

Zheng Fan turned his head and said, "The investigation here has come to an end. Although it's rather vague, it's still acceptable at this point. Let's continue with what we were doing before."

Investigate the large-scale smuggling activities in Jiangwen Street.

Undoubtedly, this matter is the core of the other party's certain scheme, so following this line of inquiry will naturally yield results.

Xiao Zhao and his companions had no objections and returned to their van parked on the side of the road, driving away from the scene.

Although the forest park is sparsely populated, Kang Zhengshan was also the team leader, and his death would naturally attract investigation. It was only a matter of time before the truth about what happened here was discovered.

Besides investigating the behind-the-scenes clues, they came to the scene to help Lu Chongming erase his traces.

Lin Yilin held a baguette, her hands hanging naturally at her sides, her expression calm.

The toast stood on the sofa, its face contorted in a grotesque manner. Although a piece of toast couldn't reveal its true nature, to Lin Yilin, toast was always the same.

"Awoo!" It realized its mistake, the evil Lin Yilin! At a time when the leader had abandoned them and run off to play by herself, it was going to make a change!
The time spent rebelling against the boss is long, but each day is short. With Lin Yilin by his side, he will never have a chance to rise to power!
Toast must defeat Lin Yilin! Defend its right to chew on the sofa! Pursue the freedom that perfect toast deserves, as stated in the "Perfect Toast Protection Law"!
After a long period of preparation, the toast finally got ready. Its body contracted and then suddenly stretched out. Accompanied by a gust of air, the toast burst out and rushed towards Lin Yilin!
Boom!
Lin Yilin reacted swiftly, drawing her baguette and striking the toast with precision.

The toast was knocked off the plane and fell straight down to the ground.

"Awoo~".

Toast has lost its ability to fight.

Lu Lu Shoes and the Blanket Spirit quickly jumped out and dragged the defeated toast away.

"Sigh, it's really troublesome that they suddenly started rebelling after Mr. Illusion and Lu Chongming are both gone." Lin Yilin put down the baguette still covered in toast crumbs and said speechlessly, "By the way, what is the 'Perfect Toast Protection Law'?"

"It's its own constitution, and the first page says 'Perfect toast is supreme.' Once you see this line, you either stop reading now and there's no need to continue, or you become so interested that you'll read about the awakening that will change the history of the toast family." Zheng Fan suddenly popped up and began to explain.

Lin Yilin wasn't startled, but turned her head and said, "It's faster than I expected, Mr. Illusion. You went there last night and came back early this morning?"

"I ran into a little trouble," Zheng Fan said.

Lin Yilin nodded and asked, "So where is the 'Perfect Toast Protection Law'?"

“It’s written on the several bags of toast slices I bought earlier, a thick stack. If you read it carefully, even a little binary girl like you will be moved,” Zheng Fan said with his arms crossed in a serious tone.

"Although I originally thought that 'there is no need to stop reading here,' Mr. Illusion, what you said has really piqued my interest."

Zheng Fan helplessly spread his hands: "There's nothing we can do, the toast slices at the back were eaten by the toast itself."

“…As expected.” Lin Yilin paused, not at all surprised. Then she suddenly remembered: “Those bags of toast were for breakfast I prepared.”

Her hand gripped the baguette again.

The baguette needs to drink the crumbs of toast...

……

Lin Yilin learned from Zheng Fan what had happened in just five hours.

"Lu Chongming... he's so unlucky."

After listening to Zheng Fan's story, Lin Yilin looked at Zheng Fan and said.

"It really is."

In the end, I encountered everything I was supposed to encounter, whether I should have or not.

"Or perhaps it's a kind of 'good luck' that others can't have. The tainted vampire I've always been looking forward to was someone he encountered by chance." Lin Yilin reached out and turned on the computer, her fingers already moving nimbly as always.

"Fortune is always a two-sided thing," Zheng Fan said meaningfully.

"Regarding what kind of power the other party used, even I can't fully grasp that elusive connection now. Most importantly, a thorough investigation of those smuggling routes will take some time. After all, these days, cross-district smuggling is commonplace in most cities, and it takes a lot of effort to figure it out."

Lin Yilin said, "Mr. Illusion, go find my teacher. He's always been quite good at this."

Niu Qianliu, who was lecturing at the university, inexplicably felt his heart trembling.
