Life Dungeon Game

He asked softly.

"of course."

The priest smiled and said, "I'm in the church outside. You can call me anytime if you need anything."

He then left the library, closing the door behind him.

He walked to the back of the library, sat down under the A-shaped bookshelf, and began to browse through the biography of the current mayor that he had brought from the library.

The content here is very simple; it's basically all praise and flattery of the mayor.

It is said that the mayor did not have good grades in college and spoke in a very common way, but he studied hard before the election and by the time of the election, he was able to quote classical texts and speak eloquently, becoming a very learned person.

It is also said that there were miraculous events at the mayor's birth; on that day, records show the aurora borealis appearing in the wilderness of the far north.

This book's flattery is so blatant and direct that even He Ao couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable reading some passages.

He Ao quickly finished reading the book.

The author seems to have carefully investigated the mayor's life, but the book makes no mention of what the mayor did while working for the mining conglomerate; all such experiences are glossed over.

They only say the good things, and even when things are bad, they find a good aspect to praise.

All I can say is that He Ao has some skill.

After flipping through it again, He Ao still couldn't find any key information in the book, so he had to put it down and open the materials Wright had sent him.

These materials include both videos and documents.

It includes numerous speeches given by the mayor during the campaign, as well as videos and materials documenting his public appearances.

When Wright shared the documents with Heo, he specifically mentioned that he had tried many methods but had not found anything special in these materials; at most, they contained a lot of boasting during the mayoral election.

However, these politicians who are running for office only boast more and more, never less, so it's not really a problem.

Wright himself processed and analyzed this data, and to avoid his own ideas influencing Heo, he divided all the files into two folders.

One contained the original files, and the other contained the files he had analyzed.

He Ao opened the folder containing the original files and quickly began to look through them.

Whether it was due to the effects of hyper memory or not, his memory had improved in some way, and he could quickly memorize things even without activating hyper memory.

He quickly watched through the videos and articles from the mayoral campaign.

None of these videos have anything particularly special about them.

The only thing that could be considered special was that the mayor's knowledge during the initial campaign was far too extensive, unlike the ignorant and incompetent person described in the biography.

It seems he really did study a lot before the election.

Aside from that, the only slightly unusual thing is that during the initial breaks of the campaign speeches, the mayor would naturally sit with his shoulders relaxed and his body upright, looking like he was nervous, but not quite.

He pondered for a moment, then continued reading the documents. He handed the documents to Eve to process and analyze the mayor's behavior and behavior patterns.

Just then, his bracelet suddenly vibrated, receiving a new message from Ivo.

"The old foreman was attacked and is in critical condition."

There should be more later, probably.

He Ao's expression changed, and he immediately stood up.

Immediately following was another message, this time a real-time location from Ivo.

Heo got up and left the library. When he entered the church, the plump priest was still sitting inside. He watched Heo come out and nodded slightly.

He didn't ask about the donation, but waved goodbye, saying, "It's late and the roads are slippery, be careful."

Heo made no attempt to hide his familiarity with the school, so the priest probably guessed that Heo had once been a student there.

"Ah."

He Ao nodded slightly and left the church.

The priest followed Heo's footsteps all the way to where Heo left the school, watching his slender figure disappear into the depths of the street.

-

He hailed a taxi and headed to the address sent by Ivo and the others.

The camera on top of the driverless taxi lit up, capturing his figure.

Taxi companies collect passengers' facial data and behavioral habits.

However, they do not share this data with the federal government. On the surface, they claim to protect customer privacy, but in reality, they are building data barriers and using this data to induce customers to spend more.

Similarly, the communication software Heo is currently using follows the same approach; they will not open their databases to the FBI.

For conglomerates, hunting down criminals is the FBI's job, while their job is to make money. They do business with anyone who pays them, regardless of their identity.

Therefore, He Ao can still use the software and services from non-mining consortia with confidence.

Just as the taxi was moving, He Ao's wristband vibrated.

Eve analyzed the mayor's behavior from the start of the election campaign.

A huge projected map appeared in front of He Ao, almost filling the entire taxi.

Red dots lit up on the map and then connected to form red trails.

The trajectory was chaotic, like tangled threads, with no discernible pattern.

The information also shows that the places the mayor visited each time were logically justified; they were either campaigning or there was some local incident.

He Ao calmed down.

The locations of the monsters he had just encountered began to appear in his mind, and he matched them one by one on the map.

However, these locations do not correspond to the mayor's travel route. Only a small portion of them overlap with places the mayor has visited, but the time intervals are also quite long.

He Ao paused for a moment, then typed a line on his bracelet: "[Can you simulate the mayor's recent movements over the past few months?]"

The bracelet vibrated once, [okay].

He was in a taxi at the moment, so it wasn't appropriate for him to speak directly.

The projected map in front of him changed rapidly, with the lines disappearing one by one, leaving only a few simple lines.

He Ao's gaze swept over the dots of light, finally settling on the nearest one, located in the North District, where the mayor had once held a charity speech.

The event was held just a few days ago.

He Ao traced his finger across the dot, then gently slid it southwest, and a familiar location appeared before his eyes.

The shop that sold the old sword to Nell

Art shop.

The day before the mayor's speech, Neil bought an old sword at that craft shop, and then that night he was attacked.

Two days after the speech, He Ao returned to the city, only to find that the owner of the craft shop had been murdered.

The speech took place late at night, precisely the time when the corrupted monster that killed the craft shop owner was active.

Although the boss was killed by a monster, the disordered handicrafts were placed there by a 'person'.

It only takes about ten minutes to get from the lecture venue to the craft shop.

However, he will definitely be discovered after being away for such a long time.

Given the timing of this speech, if anything unusual happened, Wright should have kept a detailed record of it.

He opened the original data folder containing the materials for this speech. The materials were very complete. It seemed that Wright had arranged for someone to infiltrate the mayor's entourage. The materials for the recent speeches were very detailed.

However, these records only documented the speech and the dinner that followed, in which the mayor appeared perfectly normal throughout.

After a moment's thought, He opened Wright's analysis folder.

He carefully searched through Wright's analysis results and the analysis reports of Wright's subordinates, and then found a sentence in them.

The mayor went to a public restroom for fifteen minutes on his way back.

Public toilet!

He quickly searched for a public restroom on the map. The nearest public restroom to the lecture venue was next to the craft shop.

The public toilet is located behind the craft shop.

Returning from the speech venue to the mayor's residence, one would pass by this public restroom; everything seemed so reasonable and logical.

In this light, the mayor may indeed be the mastermind behind those monsters, or at least have some influence over them.

What exactly does he want to do by creating monsters and causing chaos?

The news that the old foreman was on his deathbed made He Ao realize that his final moments were probably just around the corner.

Although this chaos affected a large number of people, there were only two core parties involved: the mining consortium led by the mayor and the miners' mutual aid association led by the old foreman.

The impact of the attack on the old foreman is likely not so simple, and it seems that the old foreman knew something.

The driverless taxi continued on its way, the surrounding noise and chaos growing louder, making the city seem even more chaotic.

When Heo rescued the members of the miners' mutual aid society that morning, the city wasn't in such chaos yet.

The vehicle eventually stopped in front of an abandoned industrial park.

He Ao got out of the car and walked into the industrial park step by step.

Not far along, two people hurriedly emerged from the darkness.

Fourth Brother Ivo and middle-aged man Watson.

"Why are you two alone?"

He Ao was taken aback. The old foreman had already given him the pickaxe, so it was clearly unreasonable for only two people to come. "How is the old foreman?"

Unless the old foreman lost consciousness before he could give any instructions.

"The old foreman was taken away by the pharmacist."

Watson answered quickly.
