Chapter 345: Pass and Future

Gao Ming had no idea what the investigation centre was planning, but the rewards they offered were indeed enticing.

“I’ll relay the information to the others.” Gao Ming used the God of Flesh and Blood to suppress Luo Dong’s daughter. “I’ve handled the anomaly at the pet company. I hope you can arrive earlier to aid the citizens next time. Don’t be like the main characters in movies and arrive after the tragedy has already happened.”

Gao Ming walked out. He felt so much better since he didn’t see Wan Jie and the other security members. The investigators didn’t dare to stop Gao Ming and allowed him to pass.

Seeing as Gao Ming and Luo Dong’s family were about to leave, Yu Ruolong and Yu Ruohu shared a look, jumped up from the ground and followed them. When the Beast God collapsed, the shadow outside the pet company started to dissipate. Gao Ming sent Luo Dong to Li San and ensured there was no one trailing them before parting ways.

“I didn’t think you were really Gao Ming from Class 13. I knew your name was familiar.” Luo Dong stood with his family. He looked at Gao Ming with appreciation.

“Just promise me to live well. Protect yourself and your family.” Gao Ming waved and turned back. Running into Luo Dong was a happy accident. His original plan was to enter Li San Hospital. The investigation centre surrounded the hospital and made it into a taboo zone. However, with the increase in the blind man’s power, he could seamlessly enter into the night. Even the security members could not detect him, much less the regular investigators.

With the big dog’s help, Gao Ming easily sneaked into the hospital. The headquarters turned the front building into a special building covered in talismans, and the back building was on lockdown. Sensing Ah Fang’s parent’s location, Gao Ming and the big dog tore through the seal and ran in. Gao Ming returned to the back building, but everything felt so different. The black lake had been destroyed, and all the mud figurines had escaped. The place didn’t feel as eerie as before.

“All the figurines have absconded. Why is the centre protecting an empty building?” The big dog was befuddled.

“If the people from the headquarters had come here personally, they wouldn’t have given this order. Or Wan Jie could have given them the wrong information, causing this mistake.” Gao Ming walked up the stairs. Shadow bled everywhere. Everything leaked a thick scent of decay.

“Isn’t Wan Jie working for the investigation centre?”

“Thank you...” The tail of the dinosaur pyjama slumped. Ah Fang gathered his courage to tell Gao Ming, “But I really don’t know anything...”

“There is another consciousness in your body. Can you ask him out?” Gao Ming rummaged through his pocket. When he came to see Ah Fang last, he bought a lot of snacks. There were still two lollipops in his pocket.

Ah Fang closed his eyes, appearing like he was sleeping. After a long while, he opened them again. His eyes were red with blood, like he hadn’t slept for days. “He doesn’t dare to come out. Many bad people are looking for him.”

“Then, can you help me ask him a few questions?” Gao Ming didn’t know so many things. He desperately wanted answers.

Ah Fang closed his eyes again. When he reawakened, he waved his tiny hands. “His memory has been stripped by Situ An and Lu Zang. They stored them in the mud figurines deep inside the black lake. If you want to know the truth, you will have to wait.”

“The two bastards have split up the shadow world’s lingering will?!”

“I don’t know what that is...” Ah Fang honestly relayed the voice of the thing inside his mind. “There are 364 Gods inside the source of corrupted faith. The two figurines that are held in place at the bottom are called Past and Future. His memory and secret are hidden in those two figurines.”

“Past and Future?” Gao Ming sensed danger from the names alone. Their power was probably stronger than the God of Flesh and Blood.

“Are the headquarters doing the mass cleansing to deal with these two figurines?”
