Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

"Where are we going now?"

After leaving the Shanghai Special Bureau Airport, Mu Lan finally couldn't help but ask a question as she walked outside.

They came to Shanghai to investigate a case.

Initially, Mu Lan thought that after He Li arrived in Shanghai, he could rely on the Shanghai Special Bureau to investigate gradually using local resources, just like he did in Bacheng and Rongcheng...

Gradually unravel the hidden major cases and gradually deal with those problematic powerful figures and forces.

Who knew, such a wonderful idea...

The reality is that we got stuck at the very first step.

He Li immediately went all out against the Shanghai Special Bureau, killing the four members of the Sakura Kingdom, suppressing countless investigators from the Shanghai Special Bureau, and even killing the deputy director of the Shanghai Special Bureau.

Things have turned out this way...

The Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau is being merciful by not issuing an arrest warrant or making things difficult for them.

Are you expecting their help?

That's something you shouldn't even think about.

That's why Mu Lan is now a bit confused and doesn't know what to do next.

Yu Ji, standing nearby, seemed to have some ideas...

"I remember when I was in Bacheng..."

"Didn't Jiang Qingtong say she would send you the general direction and information about the cases in Shanghai she was investigating? Did you receive it? Why don't you take a look and think about how to proceed?"

Yu Ji then spoke.

He Li nodded upon hearing this: "I received the news about Shanghai that Jiang Qingtong sent me yesterday."

"There are roughly three task messages..."

As he spoke, He Li brought up the mission information on his watch.

[Task 1: The Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau may be secretly collaborating with foreign forces such as the Kingdom of Sakura using national resources. Please investigate whether they have betrayed Great Xia and resolve the issue...]

[Task 2: An anonymous tip has been received that an extremely heinous and bizarre murder occurred on Dongxing Street in Shanghai, resulting in nearly a hundred deaths and injuries, but no information has been released. Please investigate...]

[Task 3: The Liu family and Yinxian sect in Shanghai, along with other civilian martial arts groups, are suspected of having connections with foreign forces. Please investigate or eliminate all related groups...]

Of the three pieces of information, He Li knew it was true as soon as he saw the four members of the Sakura Kingdom group.

The Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau definitely has problems.

Fu Gang's problem is even bigger.

He Li's approach to these people was to investigate them if possible, and if not, kill them all and fabricate charges against them. That's why he took direct action and dealt with Fu Gang without any hesitation.

Deal with these hypocrites, traitors, and scoundrels who provide support and protection to criminal forces...

He Li doesn't intend to follow the proper procedures.

As for the last two pieces of information?

According to He Li...

That's still a problem in Shanghai.

I won't go into detail about the first task information.

"If it weren't for the Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau covering for them, how could those things not have spread? How could those foreign forces have dared to be so arrogant here?"

So, in the end, all these tasks...

"It's still a problem with the Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau."

"The Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau...it needs a overhaul!"

He Li squinted and whispered.

Blood transfusion? What does that mean? Could it be... that He Lizhen plans to eliminate everyone in the Shanghai Special Bureau? Mu Lan and Yu Ji's eyelids twitched violently at the thought of this possibility.

Fortunately, He Li quickly added, "However, there's no need to rush into doing this now."

"Many problems in Shanghai are related to the Special Bureau."

"Take care of other things first."

"As long as the Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau is connected to those things, when we investigate and deal with those things, the Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau will definitely take action and leave clues..."

"For example, asking the Sakura Country for help or something..."

"We'll see what else they're hiding then, and maybe we can get some evidence of their crimes along the way."

He Li's words sounded like he was trying to reassure Mu Lan and Yu Ji, telling them not to be so tense about attacking the Shanghai Special Bureau, but they had no effect whatsoever...

This only made them more alarmed.

Because He Li's words revealed something even more terrifying...

That is... Sakura Country!

If the investigation goes further, whether it's the Shanghai Special Bureau or other criminal gangs, they might actually be seeking help from the Sakura Kingdom to take action against He Li or trying to cover up their crimes...

Given He Li's personality, he might have an excuse to directly storm the Sakura embassy...

They even went so far as to attack the Sakura Kingdom on the other side of the strait.

The problem is, given his abilities...

If he really went to Sakura Country to attack and demand an explanation, Sakura Country might not be able to do anything to him.

This is not only because He Li is strong enough that it's unlikely anyone in the island nation of Sakura could be his match, but more importantly, if Sakura really dared to do anything to He Li...

Kyoto is likely to be truly enraged.

If tensions between the two countries escalate at that time...

The nation is in danger of extinction due to inadequate national security!

Thinking about all this, and then looking at He Li again...

Mu Lan and Yu Ji's eyes widened.

This guy... is so handsome!

They had never seen anyone like He Li, a man who dared to disregard status and background to slaughter criminals with impunity, and who was even more audacious enough to have designs on the Sakura Kingdom...

If everyone in Great Xia were like this...

Sakura Country would probably have become Sakura Province long ago.

"So... shall we go straight to Dongxing Street now? Or to the Liu family and the Yinxian Sect?"

After regaining her senses, Yu Ji looked at He Li with a smile and asked, her beautiful eyes sparkling. He Li nodded, "Yes, let's go to Dongxing Street first, after all, so many people died there..."

"Even if there is information about special pressure."

"The local residents should also have some clues."

"Compared to another matter..."

"This matter, with its clear and direct direction, will definitely be easier to investigate..."

As they walked and talked, He Li suddenly noticed that a place in the distance that looked like a martial arts school was surrounded by a crowd. His keen hearing allowed him to clearly hear the voices from the dense crowd...

"Special Admissions for the Yin Xian Faction!"

"There are only five spots left!"

"As long as you pass the assessment, joining my Yinxian Sect will not only allow your child to learn profound martial arts to prepare for this great era, but also give them the opportunity to study abroad and learn top-tier foreign martial arts..."

Hmm? The Yin Xian School?

Special admissions? Studying abroad?

What top-tier martial arts techniques can be found abroad?

Isn't that nonsense?

Foreign countries don't even have the concept of martial artists; they only have all sorts of strange schools of martial arts. Your Yin Xian Sect is going against the Tian Gang and sending your disciples abroad to study foreign, advanced martial arts.

Why don't you listen to what you're saying?

He Li was somewhat speechless.

There was still a hint of doubt.

Jiang Qingtong's mission mentioned that the Yinxian Sect had problems, yet here they are recruiting people...

"What they're saying is so far-fetched, it's just something to fool ordinary people who hope their children will become successful?" He Li pondered, then turned to Yu Ji beside him and spoke...

"Investigate the Yin Xian Sect."

"Let's see if there's anything important happening in their sect recently, or if they're holding some kind of special recruitment event up ahead."

"If something happens to this kind of sect..."

"It shouldn't be able to be hidden."

As he spoke, Yu Ji and the others, lacking the ability to hear, naturally couldn't hear what was happening at the Yin Xian Sect in the distance, so they were somewhat bewildered by He Li's sudden desire to learn about the Yin Xian Sect.

However, Yu Ji reacted quickly and nodded.

She is an investigator for the Sky Eye Department.

Even if you're in another city, if you have the necessary permissions, it's still easy to access surveillance footage and check information.

At least many of them are out in the open...

Or she can easily find out things that aren't well hidden.

However, upon hearing He Li's words, Yu Ji's expression changed from initial composure to a frown as the investigation progressed, clearly indicating some unpleasant discoveries...

"The Yin Xian faction...there's something wrong with them!"

All I heard was her saying.

"The Yin Xian Sect is a sect near Shanghai. However, they were originally a relatively small sect, but later... for some unknown reason, their strength increased rapidly in a short period of time."

"What they're talking about over there is recruitment..."

"It happened three years ago as well."

Yu Ji continued speaking while manipulating his watch.

"The problem is that most of the Yinxian Sect disciples who were specially recruited and had the opportunity to study abroad... actually came from the vicinity of Dongxing Street."

Huh? ? ? Dongxing Street?
