Full-Time Magister: I Had No Intention of Reaching the Dimensional Throne

Chapter 194 Stealing a Person in Lin'an

squeak~

The courtyard gate was pushed open, and Bai Mo, who was reading a book in the courtyard, looked up.

Ding Yumin emerged from the Three-Step Pagoda.

"See? I told you it was time for you to come out."

"Your curse ability is already at a high level." Ding Yumin nodded, glancing at him sideways. "The thing you've been waiting for is about to happen."

"Yeah." Bai Mo readily admitted it, after all, it wasn't anything shameful, but there were still some things to do right now.

"No rush, we need to go to Lin'an."

"What are you going there for?"

"Qingqing sent me a letter saying that a suspected plague infection had been discovered in Baizhen, Lin'an, but she thought things were not that simple and asked us to go and see if it was the plague."

Ding Yumin understood; this plague referred to the one that had occurred in Jiangcheng. If it wasn't, then there was nothing they could do.

"Okay, when do we leave?"

"Now."

Bai Mo summoned the Wind Spirit, transforming it into a blue phoenix. The two boarded the back of this giant blue phoenix and flew directly into the sky.

Doing this during the day would be quite conspicuous, but given Feng Ling's speed, those city law enforcement personnel would probably have just set off before they had already left Shanghai.

Lin'an is not far from Modu, so they quickly arrived at the outskirts of Lin'an.

Bai Town is not far from Lin'an, located near a mountain range. If the two wanted to get there, they would need to cross the entire Lin'an area, or they would have to take a detour.

Neither Feng Ling nor Bai Mo intended to take a detour, flying nearly a thousand meters above the ground. Feng Ling's aura was usually as gentle as a spring breeze, unlikely to attract the attention of many demons. As for humans, unless they were highly skilled mages or people who liked to look up at the sky for no reason, they were less likely to be detected.

They wouldn't be noticed, so they easily crossed most of the city.

"Clang clang!!"

A clear cry suddenly came from the wind spirit's mouth. The wind spirit, which had been moving forward, spun around and stopped in the air.

Bai Mo only saw a huge black wind sweep by, and then next to a huge skyscraper, an even taller, larger, and more magnificent skyscraper appeared out of thin air, with wisps of clouds serving only as a belt around its waist!

It stood there quietly, without disturbing a single blade of grass or tree. If you didn't see it there with your own eyes, from a distance it would look like a building that was always meant to be there!

At this moment, it stands tall between the gleaming silver bank building and the magnificent five-star hotel. Looking up from its towering, enormous body, one can see a flat head with bright, triangular eyes, just like the spotlights on the top of the building!

The light shone down on the two of them, its eerie and luminous glow capable of penetrating the deepest terrors of their hearts!

Bai Mo calmly met its gaze; neither of them was afraid. The enormous creature merely glanced at them before slowly turning its body away.

It seemed that only there could it find something that interested it.

An invisible aura emanated from Ding Yumin, both cold and frenzied yet calm and righteous, colliding and swirling, as if it would explode terrifyingly at any moment.

"It's alright, it's a totem."

Bai Mo held her hand without showing any unusual reaction. He knew exactly what the big guy in front of him was, and he had seen even more powerful creatures before, so why would he feel fear?

What he didn't expect was that he would happen to run into it just as it appeared in Lin'an. That means Mo Fan and Ye Xinxia were in the building across the street that it was blocking.

"Is it also a totem?" Ding Yumin nodded slightly, and seeing that this enormous creature had no intention of attacking the people, she began to believe it.

"Let's go down." Bai Mo patted Feng Ling's back. Although Feng Ling's bloodline was not much different from that of the Xuan Snake, and it had been enhanced by him, it was still better not to fly at this time.

The moment it landed on the ground, the terrifying building shadow vanished.

The two did not linger there any longer and rushed to Bai Town immediately.

Upon arriving at the town's hospital, several patients infected with the plague were isolated on one floor.

Bai Mo glanced at a badge next to the hospital's name, somewhat surprised, yet not entirely.

Without much delay, they followed the road signs and quickly arrived at the building, where there were dedicated security guards.

After registering, the two went to the isolated rooftop, only to be stopped just as they were about to step inside.

"Stop right there! What are you doing? This isn't a place for young people like you to date!"

A medical worker who was dozing off at the stairwell woke up immediately when he saw someone coming up and questioned them loudly.

"We're here to investigate the plague," Bai Mo said.

"Investigating the plague? Who gave you permission to investigate?! Our hospital is responsible for the plague here. It's none of your business, you're not a doctor."

The medical staff waved impatiently, signaling them to leave.

"The deputy presiding judge of Lingyin Temple asked us to come and investigate, and to see our identification."

Bai Mo remained unmoved, only asking calmly.

The medical staff frowned. Seeing that the two seemed to genuinely be there for an investigation, although they were no longer as impatient as before, they still didn't let them go up. Instead, they slowly took out a form.

"Fill out the form first."

Bai Mo stared at him for a few seconds, then helped Ding Yumin fill out the form.

"Very good, my paperwork is done, but it still needs the hospital's approval. You can go to the hospital to complete the paperwork." The medical staff yawned and waved his hand again, as if shooing away flies.

Seemingly afraid they would use force, he added after saying that, "Don't make things difficult for me. These are all the rules of the hospital. I'm just a lowly worker."

"He doesn't want us to go up," Ding Yumin's voice echoed in his mind. Bai Mo's eyes flickered slightly; he also had a vague feeling about this.

Normal people would have been let in long ago if they heard about a trial. There are people who strictly adhere to the rules, but they are very few. This person did not follow the rules from the beginning, so it is clear that he did not.

If it's not stupid, then it's bad.

Bai Mo glanced at the medical staff member. "What's your hospital director's phone number?"

"How would I know?" The medical staff member leaned back in the chair, not even opening their eyes.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Mo flicked his finger, and waves of sound rippled out, enveloping the entire hospital.

They quickly found the dean's office, and a voice rang in the ear of the man sitting inside reading documents.

"I am Bai Mo, the Judge, here on the plague isolation floor."

The dean was startled and stood up abruptly.

Before Bai Mo could wait long, a slightly overweight middle-aged man approached him. "Lord Bai, Judge Bai, what brings you here?"

Bai Mo glanced at him. The Bai family owns half of the shares in this hospital, making it semi-private. It's not surprising that the hospital director seems to know something about the Bai family.

He simply gestured with his chin towards the medical staff member, "I'm here to investigate the plague. I heard I need your approval to go up there."

"No, I just said there were special circumstances that required me to report to them." The dean frowned. "I delegated this matter to Director Wang, and I was unaware of it."

The hospital director's gaze fell on the still indifferent medical staff. "Which department are you from? How do you do your job? Don't you know that in an emergency, you should act expediently?"

"I'm just a temporary worker. I get paid 200 a day to guard this place. The person told me that no one except doctors can come in. Only the hospital director can."

When the medical staff saw that Bai Mo had called the hospital director over without doing anything, they were afraid of getting into trouble, so they readily confessed everything and even made way for him.

"Anyway, you're not the one who pays my salary, so don't try to boss me around. Since you're the dean, just take them in. Goodbye."

The hospital director was dumbfounded. The task he had entrusted to Director Wang had been delegated to someone outside the hospital!

"You can't leave." Bai Mo pointed, and a spatial barrier condensed, trapping him.

"Once we find out who sent you here, we'll let you go."

Bai Mo said, then glanced at the furious dean, "Go and investigate."

"Okay! Okay."

Upon entering the top floor, there is a row of wards, but only three of them are actually occupied.

But Bai Mo knew that in just a few days, the hospital might not be able to accommodate everyone.

It was easy to tell whether these people were suffering from the plague of Jiangcheng; the two of them could even tell at first glance.

This severe corrosion was not caused by the plague of Jiangcheng at all. Ding Yumin diligently sensed the curse from everyone in the three wards, but she did not detect it either.

Therefore, having confirmed that this was not the Jiangcheng plague, they told Leng Qing the result.

Meanwhile, Leng Qing, having learned of the results, also sent over some information. It was a report she had commissioned Lingling two months prior, after she returned to the trial committee, detailing the blood supply situation in Lin'an and surrounding areas, provided by officials and other organizations. She instructed Lingling to intercept a batch of blood from Bai Town.

Bai Mo didn't expect Leng Qing to have such a keen sense of smell, so he simply bought a large quantity from the White Town Magic Association and also obtained a guarantee letter from the person in charge of the White Town Magic Association.

After finishing all this, it was already evening. The two rested for the night at the inn before heading back to Lin'an.

Bai Mo received a call from the hospital director, saying that the hospital had been robbed the previous night and the three infected people had been stolen.

"Stolen?" Ding Yumin also heard the words on the other end.

"Who would steal from a sick person for no reason?"

"I understand," Bai Mo said to the person on the other end of the line, then hung up. He then looked at Ding Yumin.

"Of course, people would steal things if they were useful. Luckily, I left tracking information on them."

Bai Mo took out a spatial compass, and with the wind spirit possessing him, he reached out and put his arm around Ding Yumin's slender waist.

"Let's give chase."

In fact, based on what would happen in the next few days according to the original story, Bai Mo could roughly guess what those people wanted these patients to do.

However, they are using people who died from a potion made with the strange blood of the Lingzhao plague rat to shift the blame!

If the Black Serpent hadn't emerged, it would have been more appropriate to direct the matter to the Water Qilin lurking in Dongting Lake. Because it caused a significant calamity in Jiangcheng.

However, the appearance of forbidden magical light in Jiangcheng made it difficult for Luo Mian, given his position, to obtain accurate information about the Water Kirin, and the plague in Jiangcheng had also been cured. Therefore, Luo Mian could not easily steer the matter towards the Water Kirin.

On the other hand, the news blockade surrounding the Jiangcheng plague was quite strict for people who wouldn't be interested in learning about it.

Therefore, Luo Mian had no choice but to blame the counterfeit and inferior bloodline entirely on the totem snake that appeared in Lin'an out of unease.

With the support of two types of soul winds, Bai Mo, though not as fast as Feng Ling, could still catch up with the people who stole the patient without difficulty, given his clear objective.

Not long after, Bai Mo and Ding Yumin found them near a barren slope.

The two sides were far apart, both in front and behind or to the left and right. Taking advantage of the fact that the people in front of him had not noticed, he took out the personal aura concealment array and spatial isolation array that he had made before and put them on.

This applies to anyone whose mental strength exceeds level four, who is neurotic and looks back at them, and who is also a high-level expert in the space system.

Then it won't be discovered.

The only downside is that it needs to fly a bit slower, but fortunately, the people in front of us are also moving slowly.

Bai Mo easily overheard their conversation using sound magic: "Brother Wang, where do you want us to carry these goods?"

Then they heard the leader, a man in the middle, say, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. You won't be shortchanged on your money."

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Bai Mo's eyes, and he slowly moved closer.

Gradually, the two followed the three men to the edge of an abandoned building. The man surnamed Wang, who was in charge, said:

"Just leave it here; this is your bounty."

After saying that, he took out three cards. Bai Mo and Ding Yumin watched from five meters away, with Bai Mo holding up his phone.

Watching this scene with a blank expression, after entering the city's network, he already understood the identity of this man surnamed Wang. He was none other than Wang Ming, the deputy presiding judge of the trial council!

Representative Luo Mian's henchmen!

The blood potions made from the blood of those Lingzhao plague rats have already been sold and used. The invasion of Lin'an by the White Demon Eagle is inevitable. The important thing is to save those who have been infected by the fake blood and to reduce the time of the White Demon Eagle's invasion as much as possible.

After leaving that place, they followed Wang Ming around Lin'an for a day. This man was very cautious and did not return to the court or his home immediately.

Finding no further information on him, Bai Mo left.

Early in the morning, Bai Mo lay on the hotel bed, while Ding Yumin beside him was still asleep.

He opened his phone, sent yesterday's video to Leng Qing, and recounted the incident.

"Do you think someone is trying to shift the blame, turning these plagues into the venom of that black serpent?"

Leng Qing's voice came from the other end of the phone. Bai Mo nodded slightly, "That's right. When the time comes, pay attention to who brought this up and who supports eliminating the Xuan Snake."

"Councilor Zhu Meng of Lin'an has always supported the hidden danger strategy. He shouldn't be doing something like this for the sake of the Xuan Snake," Leng Qing muttered to himself.

"However, no matter who it is, this alone is not enough to prove their heinous acts."

Bai Mo shook his head and reminded her, "Qingqing, it's inevitable that the counterfeit blood serum will cause problems. The fact that they're trying to shift the blame means that problems are imminent."

"You're right. I'll have Lingling handle the evidence. You go and investigate the blood serum antidote."

Leng Qing's serious voice came through the receiver, and she realized that it was important to remove the corrupt officials from the corrupt system.

However, the troubles caused by official members cannot be ignored.

"Okay." Before he could finish speaking, Leng Qing said, "Someone has discovered three skeletons and accused the Totem Serpent of the crime. I'll go take a look."

Bai Mo raised an eyebrow slightly, not expecting it to happen so quickly.
