657 Snatching the Seed Again (1/2)

They are waiting for someone. Will Shen Yuchi come personally? Zhou Wen felt that it would be perfect if Shen Yuchi really came personally.

Zhou Wen didn't dare barge into the Special Inspector Bureau's headquarters, but if Shen Yuchi dared to come, Zhou Wen could try his best to see if he could retain him.

As there were many surveillance Companion Beasts and instruments placed by the lakeside, Zhou Wen hid in the water and didn't dare move. Any abnormalities might be discovered.

After enduring more than two days, he finally realized that someone had come to the town. What disappointed Zhou Wen was that the person who came wasn't Shen Yuchi, but a man he didn't know.

Qiao Siyuan and Liz addressed him as Censor Cai very respectfully. Zhou Wen immediately realized the person was Cai Jin, one of the four Censors.

Cai Jin held a metal alloy box in his hand. There was a metal alloy chain on the box that connected to Cai Jin's wrist.

The last time the Essence Crystal mine was robbed, the bureau suffered huge losses. Shen Yuchi had only punished Cai Jin lightly, making Cai Jin extremely grateful.

This time, he had been ordered to secretly come to Funiu Mountain. Cai Jin had also made sufficient preparations. No matter what, he couldn't screw up this work trip.

”Minister Qiao, how's the defense set up here?” Cai Jin asked.

”We already have a whole range of defenses in place. We didn't find any outsiders,” Qiao Siyuan replied.

”Very good. Let's begin tomorrow,” Cai Jin said.

Liz asked curiously, ”Censor, why aren't you taking action tonight?”

”I've traveled a distance. I need to rest for the night to maintain my optimal condition. So it's better to take action tomorrow,” Cai Jin explained.

However, after Cai Jin left Qiao Siyuan's temporary office, he didn't rest. Instead, he summoned numerous bee-like Companion Beasts that flew in all directions.

Clearly, Cai Jin wasn't at ease with their defense. He had to do it again.

The people from the bureau are really very cautious. Zhou Wen saw Cai Jin circling the valley. He paid special attention to the woods and lake. He even summoned a water snake-like Companion Beast to search underwater.

Thankfully, Zhou Wen was prepared. He had dug a hole in the lake ahead of time and hid inside like a loach. It wasn't easy for him to escape Cai Jin's search.

Liz was very displeased with Cai Jin's actions. ”Censor Cai is doubting our abilities?”

However, Qiao Siyuan said indifferently, ”It's a serious matter. Better be safe than sorry.”

The inspectors and various Companion Beasts had already surrounded the lake.

Zhou Wen suddenly thought of something. Their blood sacrifice would only last for a short period of time. That would mean that they would have to bring a lot of blood into the lake? Just the thought of the pool of blood made Zhou Wen feel uncomfortable.

However, there were inspectors and Companion Beasts surrounding the lake. It was too late for Zhou Wen to leave.

”Minister Qiao, let's begin,” Cai Jin said to Qiao Siyuan after arriving by the lake and summoning his Companion Beasts to search the area again.

”Liz.” Qiao Siyuan gestured at Liz.

Liz immediately got the inspectors to take action. The inspectors opened the buckets and poured the blood into the lake from different spots.
