Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 3 How can you govern Hisakawa while you're with these insects?

What's the point of wiping road signs?

The first reason for ruling it out is to find the way, since street names in the old world have long lost their meaning.

Bai Yuekui couldn't help but feel curious.

She turned around and continued following the footprints on the ground.

A second later, she turned back.

In a flash, the lower half of the street sign fell to the ground, leaving only the words "Ant People Street".

Bai Yuekui lifted his leg and kicked the fallen half of the road sign into the ditch, then turned around and followed the footprints into a high-rise building that had not yet completely collapsed.

As soon as she entered, she saw vines running through the entire building.

As she approached the vines, her gaze fell upon the damaged parts, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

There is very little dust; it is newly formed damage.

She seemed to see a robot standing where she was now, reaching out to gently stroke the surface of the vine.

A person was directing the robot not far away, and he was full of curiosity about the vines.

Bai Yuekui frowned.

Another inexplicable action.

It's just a dead creeping vine, found everywhere in the city. What's so curious about it?
Besides, a normal person would keep their distance from ground vines, right?

With growing doubts, Bai Yuekui followed the footprints upstairs and arrived at a window on the seventh floor.

Looking out from this window, you can just see the building where she used to live.

No doubt about it, that person was standing right here.

But where is he now?
Bai Yuekui followed the footprints downstairs and returned to Yongxin Supermarket.

Her brows were furrowed.

Judging from the footprints, this supermarket is full of secrets; there might be a hidden mechanism inside.

Bai Yuekui walked into the supermarket and carefully observed, trying to find traces of the breakage.

If it's found, it means that the supermarket is actually a lift platform, and there's more to it than meets the eye.

But she gained nothing.

From any angle, this is just an ordinary abandoned supermarket, but that doesn't explain the sudden appearance and disappearance of the footprints.

Bai Yuekui took a deep breath.

She lifted her foot.

boom! ! ! ! !
The entire street trembled, and a visible shockwave swept in all directions, sending dust and trash flying and crashing against the surrounding walls with a loud noise.

The ground beneath Bai Yuekui's feet cracked inch by inch.

Looking through the cracks in the ground, there was nothing unusual; there were no complex pipelines, metal fractures, or circuit boards.

At the same time, I did not sense any fluctuations in the life essence.

Bai Yuekui's brows were furrowed.

If the supermarket is normal, what's with the footprints? Where did that person go?
"Boss, what happened?" A cute girl peeked out from around the corner.

She had an antique-style pair of goggles hanging around her neck and was holding a game console in her hand.

Immediately afterwards, a masked man stepped out: "Boss Bai, what's going on? What's all this commotion!"

Bai Yuekui came to his senses.

"Let's gather everyone and retreat. The commotion is too great; the Devouring Beasts will be here soon." She waved her hand, without explaining what had just happened.

"okay!"

The masked man turned and ran away. A few minutes later, everyone got into the pickup truck.

Bai Yuekui gazed out the car window, the image of the person she had seen constantly replaying in her mind.

He brought two robots with him, which, judging from their color and outline, appeared to be security robots from the old world, and were in very good condition.

After human civilization collapses, who will still have the ability to maintain and care for robots? And that person gave me a strange sense of familiarity, as if I had seen him somewhere before.

Who is he?
"Yue Kui is still sleeping."

ASH projects images.

Bai Yuekui was fast asleep on the feather pillow, her quilt and coat piled on the floor in a mess.

Her small mouth was slightly open, and saliva formed a silvery line around her lips, leaving a wet patch on the pillowcase.

There was a notebook at my feet, filled with complex terms and formulas.

"What stage has the research on Yue Kui's brain transplant surgery reached?" Bai Jingyu glanced at the notebook a few times, then got into the car heading to the hospital.

“Several challenges have been overcome, but what’s even more noteworthy is the breakthrough she and Dr. Horn Garcia have made in their research on the Angel Potion, and a scientific press conference will be held soon,” ASH replied.

Bai Jingyu smiled with satisfaction.

In the blink of an eye, that little girl who used to cry has now become a genius scientist in the field of neuroscience.

However, the smile on Bai Jingyu's face faded when he thought about his relationship with Yue Kui.

"Sigh," he sighed softly. "Where is Yue Tian?"

ASH projects a new image showing a dashing mounted policeman riding along the street, looking quite dashing.

“Moonlight is on duty,” ASH replied.

Bai Jingyu nodded slowly: "Yue Tian is still the one who makes my life easier."

“Yue Kui is still young and can’t understand your predicament. You can communicate with her more; that will be very helpful,” ASH suggested.

Bai Jingyu sighed: "The person she least wants to see in the whole world is me, so I'd better not appear in front of her and upset her."

"How is Dr. Jones's miracle K going?"

ASH replied, "The research on Miracle K has reached a bottleneck, but Dr. Jones promised that the next experiment will definitely be successful."

"It's always 'next time for sure,' I'm sick of hearing those four words." Bai Jingyu snorted.

"This guy is greedy for fame and fortune. Keep a close eye on him to prevent him from getting too stressed and leaking secrets."

“The level of surveillance over Dr. Jones has been raised,” ASH replied.

Bai Jingyu took a deep breath: "Jones is very important to our plan, and we cannot afford to lose him before his value is exhausted."

“Understood,” Ash replied.

The car drove into the hospital.

"Mayor Bai." The dean stood at the door to greet him.

He couldn't see Bai Jingyu's face through the car window, but his expression was still obsequious.

The car window was rolled down a crack.

"Enough with the nonsense." Bai Jingyu glanced at the dean.

The hospital director remained calm and said, "I have prepared the highest level of disinfection procedures for you. Park your car at Exit C, and the doctor will take you upstairs."

Bai Jingyu closed the car window.

The dean bowed to the car and only straightened up after it was out of sight.

Just then, a patient walked towards him.

The hospital director immediately turned around, jogged into the building, and ignored the patient's cries.

The car stopped at Exit C of the building.

The doctors and nurses had been waiting for a long time, and they escorted Bai Jingyu into the disinfection room.

Two hours later, Bai Jingyu left the hospital.

Hisakawa City is independent of the Coastal Union and has full autonomy except for foreign affairs, making it almost equivalent to a country.

The mayor has a lot of work to do.

Fortunately, with the assistance of ASH, most of the work only requires Bai Jingyu to give an opinion, and ASH can handle it on its own.

Bai Jingyu interlaced his fingers, his eyes resolute: "The most urgent task is to analyze the information obtained from parallel universes."

"Another is to expedite the implementation of the AI ​​in Law Enforcement Act to further enhance our control over Hisakawa City."

Bai Jingyu felt a sense of urgency.

Up to now, he still doesn't know what the future holds, only that disaster is imminent.

He had to speed up everything he was doing to prepare for a potential crisis.

ASH replied, "The city council still has a lot of controversy over the AI ​​in Law Enforcement Act."

“The conservatives, led by UNMPAC Chief Gray, are very resistant, and Deputy Mayor Camilla’s attitude is also wavering.”

ASH paused for two seconds, then changed the subject: "It will be difficult to make progress in the short term unless extraordinary measures are taken."

Bai Jingyu took a deep breath: "How can we govern Jiuchuan while we're with these insects?"

"There's no time to wait for them to change their minds."

"Put Gray and Camilla aside for now. Find other conservative members of parliament and use any means necessary, from threats to bribes."

Bai Jingyu stated unequivocally, "The 'AI Involvement in Law Enforcement Act' must be passed at next month's city council meeting!"

At that moment, a blue light flashed in Ash's eyes: "Vice Mayor Camilla is here."

What is this woman doing here?
Bai Jingyu frowned.

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door.

"Please come in." Bai Jingyu resumed his calm and composed expression.

Camilla pushed open the door and walked gracefully toward Bai Jingyu's desk.

Her bright red lips reflected an alluring sheen in the sunlight, and the hem of her breasts swayed with each step, creating ripples of snowy white.

She was a mature woman, and she didn't hold back in showering Bai Jingyu with her charm.

"Mayor Bai, I heard you went to the hospital for a check-up early this morning. I know a very good doctor who I can recommend to you."

Camilla walked up to Bai Jingyu, her every move exuding a fragrant aroma.

She was shorter than Bai Jingyu, so Bai Jingyu only needed to lower his head slightly to get a full view of her.
