Ice Whisper City, the coldest city in the Snow Region, is located in the northernmost part of Dragonflower Country. The temperature there remains at -10°C year-round, with a historical low of -53°C, earning it the title of Dragonflower Country's 'Cold Pole'.
“Ice Soul.”
Lan Yue nodded slightly, her expression serious, but the shaking bells and the melodious sound, like a garden full of blooming lily of the valley, betrayed her current mood.
Mingxi smiled and ruffled the fur on her head.
Not long after leaving the Time Realm, Mingxi's personal terminal rang.
It was Yu Minlan calling.
This wasn't the first time Yu Minlan had called her.
About half a month ago, she had called too.
At that time, she had proactively confessed to Mingxi that the Dark Division had been monitoring her under orders and had expressed her apologies.
Yu Minlan also explained the reason why the Special Criminal Bureau had done so.
Although Mingxi was a victim in the case, because Wei Yangang's spatial item was lost, and it was a matter of great importance, they had no choice but to monitor her.
Of course, it was also for the purpose of protecting her, to guard against Wei Yangang having made further arrangements.
Yu Minlan also told her that the Dark Division had withdrawn yesterday.
She told Mingxi to contact her anytime if she encountered any problems in the future.
Throughout the entire call, Yu Minlan acted very sincerely, as if she was truly sorry /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ for her and genuinely concerned about her safety.
But Mingxi knew very well.
Yu Minlan's main purpose was still to probe!
Or rather, it was the final probe.
The Dark Division consisted of elite talents cultivated by the country; they couldn't follow her for a long time.
It would have been fine if they had found something, but more than a month had passed, and they hadn't obtained a single clue or trace from Mingxi.
They had wasted a lot of time and energy for nothing.
That's why Yu Minlan made this probe. frёeωebɳovel.com
She explicitly told her that the Dark Division had withdrawn, seemingly to make her more vigilant, but in reality, it was to make her drop her guard.
If Wei Yangang's spatial item was truly in her hands, upon learning that the surveillance had been lifted, she might hold back for a day or two, but over a longer period, she would definitely be unable to resist revealing something.
Unfortunately, Mingxi had anticipated Yu Minlan's anticipation; Yu Minlan's tactics were deep, but Mingxi was no fool either.
So, she continued to live her life as she had before.
She didn't reveal a single flaw.
Everything in her spatial button and luggage was stored in the Time Realm.
She could only use them in the Time Realm, including the wine immortal honey.
Not to mention the items in Wei Yangang's spatial item.
Aside from the Qi-pulling Worm, Mingxi hadn't touched anything else.
And the Qi-pulling Worm was used in the Spirit Pact Chamber; no matter how powerful the Dark Division was, they absolutely couldn't follow her into the Spirit Pact Chamber.
Unless they weren't afraid of being obliterated by the Spirit Pact Chamber's laws.
As for monitoring devices, she wasn't so incompetent as to be unable to detect such minor tricks.
So Mingxi wasn't worried. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Half a month later, Yu Minlan called again.
Mingxi was both surprised and not surprised, and answered the phone calmly.
“Special Agent Yu, is something wrong?”
Yu Minlan's voice came through, sounding a bit heavy: “Mingxi, I'm calling to tell you that Wei Yangang is dead.”
Mingxi exclaimed, 'Ah,' not expecting Yu Minlan to be calling about this.
Wei Yangang is dead?
“How did he die? Could it be that he was assassinated?”
“No, two days ago, for some unknown reason, his Ying Tian He and Qimeng Elf both forcibly severed their contracts with him, and he suffered a very severe backlash.
Perhaps this incident was too much of a blow to him; last night, he hanged himself with a towel in the prison.”
Mingxi: “...”
This whole thing seemed strange.
Why would the Ying Tian He and Qimeng Elf suddenly and simultaneously sever their contracts?
It's not that easy for a pet beast to forcibly sever a contract; the Beast Tamers suffer a backlash, their brain regions are affected, and the pet beasts also suffer immense damage.
In fact, the backlash they suffer can be even more severe than that of the Beast Tamers!
A decline in strength is minor; some even die as a result.
Therefore, cases of pet beasts forcibly severing contracts are actually very rare.
Transcendent creatures also value their lives greatly.
True heroes are a minority in any world.
Furthermore, she didn't believe that someone as self-serving as Wei Yangang would choose to commit suicide.
This was as absurd as someone telling her that a mouse would fall in love with a cat!
“Are you sure he committed suicide? Could it be a disguised suicide?”
“The possibility of murder has been ruled out.”
If it were a murder, she wouldn't be calling Mingxi at this time.
Involving a murder case, she wouldn't be so reckless as to discuss it with non-official personnel.
Mingxi still felt there was something fishy about this matter.
However, investigating cases wasn't her job, and she wasn't interested in how Wei Yangang died.
“So, will the case continue to be investigated?”
“The investigation will still continue; that Liu Yong hasn't been caught yet, but it will probably be transferred to the police station.”
Mingxi raised an eyebrow, but inwardly, she was skeptical of this statement.
The case undoubtedly involved significant hidden connections; Wei Yangang and Liu Yong should belong to some mysterious organization.
The Special Criminal Bureau must have some intelligence and is unlikely to easily give up further investigation.
It's probably being transferred to a covert investigation.
These matters had nothing to do with Mingxi; all she had to do was continuously strengthen herself.
To become so strong that no one, no Transcendent creature, and no organization could harm her or her family and friends!
“Thank you, Special Agent Yu, for telling me this.”
“You're welcome. Oh, by the way, nothing strange has happened recently, has it?”
Here it comes, here it comes, the probing is back again!
“No, everything's fine.”
Yu Minlan let out a sigh of relief, “That’s good. Don’t mind me, I was just a bit worried you might encounter danger after the Dark Division personnel withdrew.”
“I understand.”
“Alright then, I still have to handle Wei Yangang's aftermath, so I'll hang up now.”
“Okay, goodbye, Special Agent Yu.”
“Goodbye.”
After hanging up the phone, Mingxi was silent for a moment, then suddenly started to laugh.
“Lei?”
Golden Yuanbao looked at her, curious about why she was suddenly laughing.
Mingxi stroked its back, “It’s nothing, I’m just a little happy. Special Agent Yu Minlan just called and told me that the bad guy who hurt us before is dead.”
“Lei Lei!”
Good riddance!
Golden Yuanbao also raised the corners of its mouth in delight.
Although more than a month had passed, it still remembered that man named Wei Yangang, remembered him clearly!
Because of him, its Beast Tamers almost lost their lives!
It would never forget the scene of its Beast Tamers collapsing in front of it.
Golden Yuanbao held grudges the most; upon hearing the news of its enemy's death, it couldn't wait to fly a few circles in the sky to celebrate!
Mingxi also smiled: “Hmm, tomorrow will definitely be a good day.”
It's a good day for the gloom to completely fade away!
The next day was indeed a super sunny day.
The early summer wind was already a bit warm.
After Mingxi finished basic training with Golden, Silver, and Lan, she took Golden Yuanbao and headed to the Haizhou City Beast Taming Center.
Limit Tower.
