Chapter 089 The Secret of the Number List (Part 2)
“Come quickly!”
Qu Kangping waved his hand and rushed into the archive room with two of his men.
Squeak——
Squeak——
The teeth-grinding chewing sound echoed in the archive room.
Qu Kangping took out his pistol and rushed into the depths of the archive room.
Squeak, squeak, squeak——
In the corner, a strange creature was chewing on documents.
It was about the size of a hound, with a worm-like body covered in a chitinous shell, two large eyes like a pair of thick-bottomed glasses, and an extremely large mouth that took up two-thirds of its head.
The bookworm turned around and cried like a baby towards Qu Kangping.
"Wow--"
Qu Kangping raised his pistol and pulled the trigger.
The silver bullet flew past and pierced the bookworm's head.
The bookworm wailed and flew backwards.
"Sprinkle salt!"
"yes!"
Two of the men pulled silver salt shakers from their pockets and sprinkled the salt frost on the bookworm.
The bookworm howled in pain.
Qu Kangping and the other two looked calm, but the policemen outside the house could not help but tremble all over. Some of them even felt their legs go weak and they knelt on the ground, holding their heads and crying.
"Ajian, go and appease the police outside."
"yes."
Ajian nodded, put away the salt shaker and walked out of the archive room.
To deal with strange creatures, it is not enough to have equipment, you also need to have extremely strong mental strength, otherwise you will probably be like the police outside, who will be scared to death or go crazy before killing the monster.
This bookworm is not very strong, so it can only scare some weak-willed people.
The subordinate squatted beside the bookworm's body to do the finishing work, "Tsk tsk, from the looks of it, he's been a bookworm for at least ten years. If he reads a few more books, he'll be a human."
Qu Kangping pried open the bookworm's mouth and found a half-eaten document in its throat.
"Hmm... this book looks so familiar..."
"Team leader, this is 'God Says'." The subordinate came over and said, "Have you forgotten? We once destroyed a fanatic organization. 'God Says' was their Bible. The book was full of meaningless nonsense. This is the nonsense he heard after ."
"Do you still remember the last words Gu Yi said?"
"What?"
"There is a mapping relationship between reality and the strange world, and the host exists in the territory of Dragon Country."
"so……"
"If you were the host, what would you do to stop Gu Yi from passing the level?"
"Team Leader, do you mean that Bookworm came here just for 'God Says'? There might be important clues here? He destroyed all the files in order to slow down my investigation!"
Qu Kangping didn't say anything and walked straight to the director's office.
Hu Chang was looking at his door panel with heartache and trying to repair it, but unexpectedly Qu Kangping ran back again and pushed the door open.
“Oh my god!”
Hu Chang covered his chest and looked at Qu Kangping. The door of the office was completely broken.
"Why are you standing there? Why don't you do something?"
“I’m always working, right?”
Qu Kangping spoke very quickly, "Hurry up and find me a complete copy of God Says."
"What the hell is "God Says"?"
"You've reached the end of your career as police chief."
Qu Kangping sat on Hu Chang's desk, picked up the phone and called Hu Chang's leader.
Hu Chang stood behind Qu Kangping with a look of panic on his face, trembling with fear and not knowing what to do.
"I don't care what method you use, I must see the complete "God Says" appear on my desk in an hour! If you can't find it, I will open your skull!"
Snapped!
Qu Kangping dropped the phone and pouted at Hu Chang, "Make me a cup of coffee, stronger, without sugar."
"Uh... got it."
After one hour.
The complete copy of "God Said" was delivered to Qu Kangping. It was rescued from a bookworm by an agent in the neighboring city. Although the cover of the book had become tattered, the text inside was still clearly legible.
Qu Kangping took "God Said" and the number list left by Gu Yi, and called all the code-breaking experts in the city.
"I'll only give you half an hour."
"Half an hour is not enough..."
"You—get out!" Qu Kangping pointed at the expert who talked back, then turned to look at the remaining experts, "If you succeed, you can get supreme glory and join our strategy team; if you fail, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."
Qu Kangping was known for his domineering attitude. The cryptographer did not dare to disobey his orders and left the office in a daze.
Ah Jian stood outside the door, pulled the cryptographer and said with a smile: "Expert, we have encountered a strange incident in the northeast of Longguo. We need your smart brain to study this strange incident."
"Me? Hey, I don't want to deal with strange incidents. I'm not good at it..."
"You can't crack the code anyway, right? We just found you one that's easier to crack. Let's go."
"I was wrong. Can I stay and decipher the code?"
The experts who remained in the office had shaking hands.
If they succeed, they can obtain supreme glory and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
If they lose, they will be sent to carry out dangerous missions.
Half an hour - even the most experienced cryptographers would not be able to crack the password in such a short time. Qu Kangping was simply forcing others to do something against their will.
"Two minutes have passed!" Qu Kangping said coldly, "The country feeds you, not for you to waste food. Gu Yi is still in the weird world representing our country and taking risks. It's great that you can decode in the air-conditioned office. Don't make any conditions with me. We are on the battlefield now, not playing house!"
The cryptographers were all bent over their desks, writing furiously.
Snap!
Twenty minutes later, a young expert dropped the pen and paper in his hand.
Qu Kangping held a cigarette in his mouth and looked at the young man with curiosity.
"Team Leader Qu, I figured it out!" The young man held up the note in his hand. "This is indeed the code. He used two classical encryption algorithms at the same time. The decryption method is not difficult. All we need is..."
"Just tell me the result."
"Longguo, Southeast, Coastal Province, Haiwan City, Huangjia Town. But... this place doesn't seem to be a mountainous area, but a coastal town?"
"Don't worry about it." Qu Kangping put out his cigarette and patted Hu Chang's shoulder. "Let's go investigate this place right away. I'll lead the team myself."
…
Weird world.
Gu Yi wandered around the city in tattered clothes. With his keen intuition, he discovered several secret sentries.
Now he was still seriously injured and had no chance to fight the enemy.
Gu Yi went to a nearby pharmacy to buy some painkillers, which was like drinking poison to quench thirst, but he had no other choice. If he went to the hospital for treatment, he would be walking into a trap.
“Ahem—”
Gu Yi covered his mouth, coughed twice, and another mouthful of bloody phlegm spurted out.
"Son, son!"
Gu Yi's ears moved slightly. He leaned against the wall and looked behind him. His parents were driving and standing behind him.
——Why did these two guys come here?
Gu Yi felt a chill in his heart and waved his arms desperately.
"Deduction...Open..."
Before Gu Yi could finish his words, his vision went dark and he fell to the ground.
