Wu Yongfeng stood there, watching the tall, thin figure.
After the figure turned around, he said with some surprise:
" Wu Zhenyu? What are you doing here all alone?"
"I..." Wu Zhenyu paused, then said, "I want to go out..."
Seeing that someone shared his idea, Wu Yongfeng's eyes lit up.
"You want to go out? Perfect, I want to go out too, let's..."
"No, let's confirm my identity first. Tell me something you know about me!"
"About you..."
Wu Zhenyu turned his head, seemingly deep in thought, and after a moment, he spoke:
"You have a lot of those kinds of people in your phone..."
Upon hearing the beginning, Wu Yongfeng seemed to know what the other party was going to say, and he quickly called for a halt.
"Stop, stop, stop! I know you really mean it!"
Wu Zhenyu nodded and stood there without saying a word.
"Really, there's no need to say this to confirm someone's identity!" Wu Yongfeng said, somewhat exasperated.
However, Wu Zhenyu did not reply; he simply stood there.
Seeing this, Wu Yongfeng could only helplessly say:
"Alright, let's hurry down, or we'll be in trouble if we encounter Calamity Beast later!"
Wu Zhenyu nodded, and the two quickly walked towards the stairs.
Halfway through, Wu Zhenyu suddenly asked a question.
"Are we just going down there and out like this?"
"Really? What else?" Wu Yongfeng said.
Is there no other way?
"There are still a few doors left, but the message just said..."
Wu Yongfeng suddenly stopped, his whole body frozen in place.
He suddenly thought of a question.
I just confirmed the information with Wu Zhenyu, but Wu Zhenyu didn't confirm it with me.
Wu Zhenyu is very smart; whatever he can think of, the other party can definitely think of too.
So why, after I confirmed my identity with the other party, didn't they ask me anything to verify my identity as well?
unless...
The other party knew that he was definitely not that Calamity Beast!
Let's go back a little bit.
Shen Heng squatted on the window that Lin Xiaoyu had climbed in through before.
What appeared before him was a slightly messy office, with many documents scattered on the floor and some bloodstains around it.
However, what's even more eye-catching than these are the figures lying directly on the ground.
"So they really changed the coach?"
Shen Heng's gaze swept over Lin Xiaoyu's figure, then his eyes widened, and his attention focused on his ear.
The sounds of frantic running, banging on doors, and cries for help...
These sounds didn't come from just one direction, but from several places simultaneously.
Shen Heng frowned slightly.
Given the officers' professionalism, they shouldn't have reacted with such terrified screams unless they encountered Calamity Beast.
However, in the previous incidents, each person was involved in an accident individually; there were no instances of multiple people being involved at the same time.
That means there is probably only one Calamity Beast.
With only one Calamity Beast remaining, problems are occurring in multiple locations simultaneously...
Shen Heng lowered his head in thought.
Does it have abilities similar to the previous Decaying Spore?
Is it possible for the main body to split off and control more people?
Or is it just about exerting some influence on people?
Or something else?
Then he heard some different noises, and Shen Heng listened carefully.
"Did Le Gu Nan tell them to find a place to hide...?"
His thoughts returned to the present, and Shen Heng pondered how to handle the situation.
The Calamity Beast made so much noise probably because it knew it couldn't get out and wanted to create confusion so it could find a place to hide and escape this calamity.
So, what's next...?
Shen Heng listened intently for a moment, then ran towards the direction of the cries for help.
Before long, Shen Heng saw two police officers running towards him, one after the other, about ten meters apart.
The officer in front was turning his head to check behind him, so Shen Heng couldn't see his face, but judging from his movements, it was obvious that he was very flustered.
The officer behind him had a ferocious and irritable expression.
Shen Heng's gaze swept over the two police officers before settling on a door.
He was a little worried that the other person might have a gun; in this kind of long corridor, if the other person pulled out a gun, he really wouldn't have anywhere to hide.
On the other hand, he couldn't trust either of the two men, even though the officer in front looked like he was being chased.
Shen Heng stood still, watching the two people running straight past in the distance.
After confirming the distance between them, Di Hong turned his head to check the road ahead, lest he bump into a wall later.
However, the next moment, as the figure in front of him came into his view, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A sense of despair settled over him...
Um?
Di Hong was startled. He carefully examined the face of the person in front of him, then started running forward again.
This time, he ran even faster.
"Comrade Inspector, quick, help!"
Shen Heng glanced at the figure shouting for help at him, then pointed to the door beside him.
"Don't come any closer. Go into the room next door and don't come out without my permission!"
"Huh? Why?"
"Don't worry about it, just do as I say. I'll handle the rest!" Shen Heng said.
Despite not quite understanding, Di Hong nodded.
He glanced back at his colleague who was chasing after him, then gritted his teeth, flung open a door as he passed by, and squeezed inside.
Bang!
The door was tightly closed, followed by the sound of it being locked.
Shen Heng glanced at the closed door, then his gaze shifted to the figure still running forward.
He raised the knife and tapped it on the wall beside him, making a 'crackling' sound.
The figure looked over at the sound, its gaze fixed on Shen Heng, and let out a meaningless roar.
Shen Heng lowered his eyes slightly.
Does the lack of intelligence mean that the physical body is not present?
Hmm... I can't guarantee that, I still need to be careful!
but...
Shen Heng's gaze fell on the police officer who was only a dozen meters away from him.
He doesn't seem to have changed much outwardly, but if the original body isn't on him, it's hard to say whether he can be saved.
Give it a try...
As the two drew closer, Shen Heng's gaze remained fixed on the police officer.
After the other party approached within five meters of him without making a move to draw a gun, Shen Heng let out a soft breath.
At this distance, even if the other party drew their gun now, it would be too late.
He suddenly bent down, pushed off the ground, and darted away like a cheetah.
The two figures met in an instant.
The next second, with two loud bangs, Shen Heng knocked the police officer to the ground.
Without hesitation, the Origin Power quickly converged towards Shen Heng's palm.
His gaze swept over the officer's back before quickly settling on the back of his head, which was stained with a few drops of blood.
Then, he placed his palm directly on the back of the head.
As the Origin Power washed over him, the police officer's body twitched twice before collapsing completely.
