The Spirit of the Deep Bow

That is indeed the case.

What Lu Bai needs are tools with the ability to investigate and search.

Having such a tool person can improve his efficiency in hunting and killing fighters.

Simply knowing what a Deathmatcher looks like doesn't mean much to him.

He didn't bother dealing with the two female combatants' bodies and simply pushed open the door and left.

He wasn't too disappointed; he knew these things were a matter of luck.

After all, lone wolves are unlikely to choose this kind of ability; it's better to place your hopes on those team-based deathmatchers.

Ninety-nine percent of the residents in the old town have been evacuated, and the surrounding area is completely silent.

If an ordinary person were walking down this alley right now, they would probably find it a bit creepy.

Unlike ordinary people, Lu Bai wouldn't scare himself like that. On the contrary, he really hoped that a deathmatch fighter would jump out and stop him.

Only,

He stopped, a hint of helplessness in his expression. "I didn't ask you to stop me."

A middle-aged couple stood about five or six meters away from him.

The husband respectfully said, "You must be Lu Bai? Please forgive our intrusion."

Lu Bai put his hands in his pockets and nodded slightly, signaling it to continue.

"We have witnessed your greatness, and we deeply regret our previous offense. On behalf of all our fellow human beings, I would like to express our sincere apologies and hope to receive your forgiveness."

After saying this, the Parasitic Organism, who was the husband, bowed deeply.

I don't know where he learned this craftsman's spirit.

Lu Bai replied noncommittally, "Is there anything else?"

The husband stood up, his back still maintaining a certain curve.

It held its hands in front of it, bowing low. "Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to our request. We very much hope to follow you and stand on your side."

We will always be grateful for your kindness and generosity. This is not coercion; you are free to express your wishes. We will always be with you.

As it spoke, it bowed deeply again. "We are deeply grateful to express our respect to you once again."

The Parasitic Organism, who was the wife, also bowed and added, "The government building welcomes you at any time; the mayor and all its kind will certainly give you a warm welcome."

Lu Bai remained silent for a moment.

Although he had long known that this creature had no sense of shame, he was still taken aback by how thoroughly it slid to its knees.

However, if apologies were effective, there would be no need for the police.

Let's stabilize them first. The primary goal now is to eliminate all the death row fighters; there's no need to create unnecessary complications.

He waved his hand. "I understand."

The husband looked up in confusion. "Excuse our ignorance, but what do you mean?"

I said I understood.

Lu Bai's smile gradually brightened, "I'll go when I have time."

"Great, here's my contact information."

The husband respectfully handed a cell phone to Lu Bai: "Please contact me at your convenience. We all look forward to your arrival."

Having explained everything, the two Parasitic Organism, worried that staying any longer would displease Lu Bai, quickly took their leave.

Outside the alley entrance, a large number of police cars were still parked.

After this period of time, the situation has been brought under control to a minimum.

With so many police officers on the scene, at least no one dared to go on a rampage and vandalize the streets anymore.

Seeing the murmuring crowd, some officers breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from their foreheads with their sleeves.

But that was all. The leaders hadn't received any further instructions from their superiors, and the situation was at a standstill, with no one daring to decide whether to withdraw or continue the arrest operation.

"There's no way you can blend in, right?"

Outside the yellow and black police tape, Wang Ting whispered something hidden inside her collar.

Yao Yi, leaning on her cane, said in a low voice, "I have Special Affairs Bureau badge; I can go in through the proper channels."

"You're still limping, are you going to work while sick?"

Wang Ting made a rare dry joke, "If it doesn't work out, we'll just stay outside. I can sense that there are many of our kind scattered throughout this old town. It would be very dangerous for us to go in rashly."

Yao Yi frowned and looked around.

Suddenly, he paused for a moment, then turned his gaze back. "Wait, I think I see Director Xu."

Meanwhile, Xu Qiang, whom Yao Yi had spotted, was standing at the alley entrance making a phone call.

Even though Lu Bai had just hung up on him on the phone not long ago, he couldn't just give up like that.

The black text hanging in the sky has not yet dissipated, constantly reminding everyone that the threat has not yet been eliminated.

After all, from his perspective, he believed that he was the only one who could contact Lu Bai, and that the hope of preventing the world from being destroyed rested on him.

Faced with such a heavy responsibility, losing face a little is no big deal.

"Hello?" Lu Bai's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Realizing the call had been answered, Xu Qiang felt a surge of excitement.

Fortunately, he was already a mature bureau chief, and he forced himself to control his emotions. "Lu Bai, go online and see, public opinion has reversed, everyone believes you are a good person."

"No need."

Lu Bai said in a low voice, "My official career was unsuccessful, and I was disheartened. After I fell in love with astronomy, I realized how vast the universe is and how infinite space and time are."

His tone raised slightly, from low to emotional.

"What are humans? What Parasitic Organism? They're nothing but ants, dust..."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qiang's face turned green.

He quickly and excitedly said, "No way! Your position is still reserved for you. Who told you your career wasn't going well?!"

This is indeed true. Ever since the video of Lu Bai colluding with Parasitic Organism to kill innocent citizens was circulated, public opinion on the internet exploded instantly.

The Special Affairs Bureau was too busy cooperating with the police in the arrest operation to cancel Lu Bai's official position.

Moreover, even if it were truly canceled, Xu Qiang couldn't possibly tell the truth; he would immediately have to reinstate Lu Bai.

"It's like this, you must stay calm, everything can be discussed..."

Beep~ Beep~ Beep~

The busy signal left Xu Qiang speechless. His mouth moved stiffly, his mind a complete blank, fearing that the sky would plunge into darkness again in the next second.

"Director Xu?"

Yao Yi, leaning on her cane, cautiously approached.

Xu Qiang, still in the position of answering the phone, subconsciously asked, "How did you get discharged from the hospital?"

"Director Xu, there are some things you may not know. The woman who was killed by Brother Lu in the video even considered taking me hostage while she was in the hospital."

So I feel there must be something going on. I want to go find Brother Lu and ask him in person. I know this might not be in accordance with the rules, but could you please allow me to enter...?

Before Yao Yi could finish her request, Xu Qiang interrupted her with an eager expression.

"Alright, alright, are you okay to move around now? Do you need me to arrange a few more people for you?"
