I have an all-knowing mirror

Chapter 21 Grandmaster of Core Formation

Shanghai Security Bureau.

Having just finished a video conference from headquarters, Deputy Director Lu Wuhuai walked out of his office with a solemn expression.

"There's actually a powerful Japanese expert, comparable to a Grandmaster of Internal Energy, who has fled all the way from the North and may have already infiltrated the Demon City."

Lu Wuhuai felt a lot of pressure.

He was well aware of the destructive power of a Grandmaster of Internal Energy within the city.

"Headquarters' message is to find this person and retrieve the Tian Shan snow lotus that was stolen by this Japanese."

Lu Wuhuai had a headache.

A master of internal energy transformation.

If you hide in Shanghai, a city with tens of millions of people, how can you find yourself?
"But at the latest, someone from headquarters will arrive within half a day."

Lu Wuhuai could only hope that the Japanese man in Shanghai wouldn't go crazy. If he caused too much of a stir, his job as deputy director would probably be over.

Just as he was passing by the bureau's answering room, Lu Wuhuai suddenly heard a phone ring.

"Where's Xiaolin?"

Lu Wuhuai glanced at the answering room and found that no one was inside, only the phone was ringing.

"They must have gone to the toilet."

Lu Wuhuai walked into the answering room and answered the phone.

Although answering the phone was not his responsibility as deputy director.

But Lu Wuhuai has a strong sense of responsibility. What if this emergency call is related to someone's life? What if something happens if the call is answered even a second late?
When Lu Wuhuai answered the phone, he heard the words, "Hello, is this the police?"

"Yes, please."

Lu Wuhuai immediately said.

Lu Wuhuai originally thought this was just a regular emergency call, like catching a thief or having his electric bike stolen.

But when he heard the words "Japanese" and "snow lotus of Tianshan" on the phone, Lu Wuhuai's pupils constricted.

He immediately asked, "You mean, at the Top Star Coffee Shop, you saw several Japanese people acting suspiciously, talking about how to transport the snow lotus they obtained from the Northern Tianshan Mountains back to Japan?"

"Yes, that's right."

The voice on the other end of the phone will definitely answer.

"This"

Lu Wuhuai was a little confused. He had just been racking his brains about how to find the powerful Fusang who stole the snow lotus, and now someone had reported him to the police and provided a clue?

Is this a pillow being offered to someone who's really sleepy?

"Are you sure they're from Japan? And they even have Tian Shan snow lotus?"

Lu Wuhuai asked again to confirm.

It doesn't mean anything if there are only a few Japanese people; there are many Japanese people in Shanghai.

Could we add the Tian Shan snow lotus? The Japanese and the Tian Shan snow lotus? Although we still can't be 100% sure that the other person is the one we're looking for.

But I'm about 70-80% sure.

After receiving confirmation from the other end of the phone, Lu Wuhuai's expression brightened, and he said in a low voice, "The clues you provided are very important to us."

He praised the person who reported the incident and promised to give them a prize in a while.

Lu Wuhuai hung up the phone and immediately mobilized manpower.

"If the other party is indeed a Japanese who has fled here, the people in the bureau alone are far from enough."

Lu Wuhuai showed no sign of underestimating him. After all, this was a powerful figure comparable to a Grandmaster of Internal Energy. If the force used to capture him couldn't overwhelm him, and the opponent fought back desperately, even if he was eventually suppressed, it would still have a significant negative impact. Moreover, the person who reported the incident said that he didn't just see one Japanese person, but several.

Could the other Japanese also be powerful figures comparable to Grandmasters of Internal Energy?
With this in mind, Lu Wuhuai immediately made a decision.

Central District of Shanghai.

It remains bustling and lively, with people coming and going.

He turned off his phone after calling the police and tossed it aside on the roadside before heading towards the Jinshan Villa District.

As for why he didn't return the phone to the dark-skinned international friend, it was because Su Yuan knew that the police would track the phone's location half a day later.

They then located the phone, and through the SIM card's registered information, found the dark-skinned international friend. After summoning him to the station and questioning him repeatedly, they returned the phone to him.

"ended."

A smile appeared on Su Yuan's face.

Making this emergency call was the final step in Gray Mirror's plan.

Looking at the whole plan, each step was interconnected. Every action Su Yuan took, every word he uttered, every change in tone and expression, all achieved the intended purpose.

If any link in the chain goes wrong, even slightly, it could affect the entire plan or even lead to the exposure of one's identity.

Take the final step of the alarm plan as an example. Why did Su Yuan choose to call the police at this particular time?

Is it because the four members of the Chizuru family will gather together at this time?
This is just one of the reasons!
Another reason is that if the emergency call is made even a minute earlier or later, the person who receives the call will not be Deputy Director Lu Wuhuai, but rather the call center staff member 'Xiao Lin'.

When the call center staff member, Xiao Lin, heard Su Yuan's report, he didn't take it seriously and simply recorded it as usual. It wasn't until twenty minutes later that Deputy Director Lu Wuhuai held a meeting at the bureau to discuss the matter and told everyone to pay attention to the news about the Japanese and the snow lotus.

It was only then that the staff member 'Xiao Lin' realized the importance of the alarm information and immediately informed Lu Wuhuai.

Unfortunately, it was too late, twenty minutes too late. The four members of the Chizuru family had already received the next instructions, and the four of them were to split up, which would greatly increase the difficulty of the capture.

Calling the police at the right time is crucial, as it determines whether the emergency call will be taken seriously immediately.

"After that, there's nothing more for me to do."

Su Yuan thought to himself casually.

Through the gray mirror, Su Yuan already knew that his call to the police would attract the attention of the Xia Kingdom's officials, who would dispatch a Grandmaster of the Core Formation to suppress the four members of the Thousand Crane Family.

Top Star Coffee Shop.

Qianhe Shanghe and the other three finally received the family's next instructions.

"The four of you should disperse and return to your clan immediately."

Upon seeing the specific instructions, Qianhe Shanghe and the other three immediately understood and planned to leave the coffee shop one after another, departing from Shanghai.

at this time.

Qianhe Shanghe's expression changed slightly. He looked around, his face as solemn as water.

Because at some point, the huge coffee shop was left with only the four of them, and the coffee shop staff had also disappeared.

The other three also realized something was wrong. They exchanged glances and prepared to flee in different directions in an instant.

With a whoosh, a surge of spiritual power, like a vast ocean, rolled in. In an instant, the three great warriors, Chizuru Qi, Chizuru Takahashi, and others, felt their thoughts slow down, as if they were carrying a mountain weighing ten thousand tons on their shoulders.

"This is?"

As an Onmyoji, Chizuru Kamikaze possessed a powerful soul, so the mental suppression wasn't as noticeable to him. He turned his head with difficulty and discovered that an old man wearing shorts was standing at the entrance of the coffee shop.

The old man looked ordinary, wearing slippers, no different from any other old man in the park, but the spiritual power he exuded at that moment was like a raging storm.

"Grandmaster of Embracing the Elixir"

The cranes on the river looked ashen-faced.
