Chapter 462 Detonated from within
In the east of the city, more than a dozen groups of robbers wearing clown and animal masks robbed material warehouses belonging to more than a dozen different companies.
These warehouses are basically one level lower than the warehouses of Super Star Resources. Naturally, they will not hire extraordinary people as security guards with high salaries. They will be easily broken into by the robbers. After looting, they will leave.
Although the materials in the warehouse are not the most precious cultivation resources, the total case value of more than a dozen robberies has still accumulated to astronomical figures.
In the west of the city, criminals are targeting the middle and senior levels of dozens of companies and research institutes at the same time, those auxiliary extraordinary beings who have realms but lack combat effectiveness.
Not all extraordinary beings are good at fighting.
Like Taishan Beidou Ning Shewo in the harvest world, he is also a strong person in the heaven realm in terms of realm. However, he majors in branches, harvesting techniques and natural history. Coupled with old age and weak strength, he is not suitable for high-intensity fierce battles.
There are also many scientific researchers and managers who are all mental workers. Their brains are extremely developed due to the tempering of spiritual energy. Correspondingly, their limbs are inevitably weaker.
These people are not short of money and often have a lot of cultivation resources accumulated at home.
Because they are backed by major companies and forces, not many people usually think about them.
Tonight, for some unknown reason, the homes of many experts and scholars were invaded and robbed by heavily armed bandits.
Of course, there are experts and scholars who fight tooth and nail to resist.
However, the gangsters were all extremely vicious. When faced with a slight resistance, they became irrational and crazy, and even died together with experts and scholars in their arms.
In just one hour, news of hundreds of crimes had spread throughout the city.
Meng Chao felt that Shen Yupeng had become the fire captain, and he was the firefighter following him, wandering around the city like a headless fly.
But every time he was half a step behind the gangsters, and could only clean up the mess for them.
It's not that these gangsters are really powerful or cunning.
In fact, most of the gangsters are like Ning Lang, ordinary people who swallowed the magic capsule and temporarily gained extraordinary powers.
Even if the criminal plan is carefully planned and there are still a lot of clues left at the scene, it can still be easily locked.
The problem lies precisely in the fact that they are ordinary people who do not know the horror of extraordinary power, nor do they know how to control power and stabilize the output.
Once discovered by the secret police or extraordinary people who act bravely for justice, they often choose to jump over the wall in panic, resulting in losses that are ten times more severe than the robbery itself.
Just like Ning Lang.
Originally, he really had to open up his appetite to grab a whole container truck, which is at most half a warehouse's worth of cultivation resources.
But because of the arrival of Meng Chao, he seemed to make a decisive decision, but in fact he foolishly chose to detonate a high-energy incendiary bomb, destroying an entire warehouse of cultivation resources, and the irreparable losses suddenly increased tenfold.
This point will definitely be taken into consideration when sentencing in the future and he will be severely punished.
Of course, he had already committed intentional homicide before the robbery, so he probably didn't care.
Like him, many robbers deliberately detonated the remaining training resources in the material warehouse in order to distract the pursuers when escaping.
Some people also released smoke bombs and incendiary bombs in densely populated residential areas after breaking into houses, causing all the residents to suffer.
There are also people who, after being surrounded by pursuers, swallowed more magical capsules, instantly releasing the potential deep in their cells and transforming into demons more terrifying than monsters. Before their organs dried up and their bodies spontaneously combusted, they fought in downtown areas and
The pursuers launched a series of thrilling and brutal battles, which naturally resulted in the injury of many innocent people.
The messy crime scene and the devastated arrest scene left Shen Yupeng stunned and anxious.
You know, it is precisely because extraordinary beings are monsters covered in human skin, even walking super cannonballs.
The handling of crimes committed by extraordinary persons requires even greater caution.
If you are not completely sure, you would rather give up the opportunity. Before arresting, the criminal must not smell the slightest hint of danger.
Otherwise, if the criminal breaks the jar, the consequences will be disastrous.
This is why super criminals cannot be dealt with by ordinary police agencies.
He is also a police officer of the Tribunal, known as the "secret police".
However, the number of secret police officers is limited, and they never expected to have to deal with hundreds of vicious cases involving superpowers at the same time.
Extraordinaries who act bravely for justice are full of blood, but lack professional skills. They treat criminals as zombies and monsters, do bad things with good intentions, and the losses continue to increase.
Of course, they also caught some criminals.
But most criminals die within a few hours due to overdraft and cell depletion.
The few guys who were lucky enough to survive were all extremely weak and half-dead. It was difficult to pry open their mouths and ask for useful information for the time being.
And through facial and fingerprint recognition, their identities were locked, and they were all ordinary people, not even half a valuable big fish, and no one knew why these ordinary people had a clear understanding and chose to take risks tonight.
The long night is finally over.
Almost everyone in the city knows that hundreds of vicious crimes occurred in Dragon City last night.
The damage caused was almost the same as a large-scale monster invasion.
But the turbulent aftermath goes far beyond that.
Humanity's greatest fear is the fear of the unknown.
Regardless of whether attacks by zombies, monsters or undead creatures, it is something that the people of Longcheng have long foreseen and are used to.
These ferocious and ugly monsters can be identified as "them" from their appearance, and it is natural for "them" to attack "us", and "we" only need to fight back fiercely.
However, no matter how fierce and crazy the robbers are, they are all ordinary human beings and are theoretically members of "us". This kind of cannibalism has left many people in Longcheng puzzled, worried and full of ominous premonitions.
From a more practical perspective, monster attacks will indeed cause heavy losses to Dragon City.
But as long as the monsters can be killed, their flesh and blood materials can make up for or even exceed the losses.
The losses caused by the robbers were a net loss. Even if all the robbers were caught, sentenced to death, and their bones were ripped apart to boil oil, it would not be able to make up for even 1% of the loss.
What's more, the criminals arrested last night were far less than one-third of the total. There are still many criminals who took off their masks, changed their clothes, and then escaped into the civilian population again. It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to investigate and arrest them.
.
Even if they took the stolen cultivation resources and fled to the depths of the nest city, they would mingle with the lost people who had been dormant for the past few decades.
Then, unless the three hive cities with a combined population of millions are all uprooted, it will be almost impossible to catch them.
"This unprecedented serial crime must be a new round of rampant attacks by alien beasts on Dragon City. The purpose is not only to rob cultivation resources, but also to disrupt the social order of Dragon City, create mutual distrust among humans, and make humans
Civilization has returned to the bloody era of lawlessness and lawlessness decades ago!"
At six o'clock in the morning, Meng Chao, who had been sleepless all night, finally met Lu Siya and Ye Xiaoxing, who were also unkempt.
Although no trace of the alien beast's manipulation has been found in the crime that occurred last night, it does not mean that the alien beast investigation bureau can sit back and relax.
In order to prevent the alien beasts from taking advantage of the situation to rob Dragon City, or to take advantage of the situation like the last "Junlin Hotel Raid Incident", all investigators with combat capabilities from the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau were sent out to defend Dragon City.
Facilities and strategic points.
There really were a few blind thieves who bumped into the guns of the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau.
Unfortunately, when investigators started to arrest them, these robbers showed that they were far more cunning than the monsters. They sneaked into densely populated residential areas and downtown areas at every turn, and they often took innocent citizens as hostages.
mean.
The investigators spent ten times more wisdom and energy to catch these guys than they did to catch the strange beasts.
Team 9 leader Ye Xiaoxing keenly smelled the scent of strange beasts hidden deep in the serial crimes.
His views coincided with Meng Chao's.
Hundreds of vicious crimes broke out simultaneously overnight, and almost all of the perpetrators were ordinary people who had swallowed divine transformation capsules, or low-level transcendent beings who had swallowed large doses of divine transformation capsules. This could not be a coincidence.
In "One Hundred Ways to Destroy Dragon City" written by Meng Chao, it has long been mentioned that compared to forcibly attacking from the outside, finding ways to "implode" Dragon City and destroy it in internal chaos is the most cost-effective approach.
No wonder the alien beasts had been dormant for so long after the raid on the Junlin Hotel, and had not made any big moves for half a year.
It turns out that in order to "complete the victory in one battle", such a large time bomb was installed inside Dragon City, and it finally detonated last night.
Unfortunately, the Bureau of Investigation does not have many clues about the case itself.
Before there is conclusive evidence, the jurisdiction of the case still lies with the tribunal, and Ye Xiaoxing and Lu Siya have no effort to pursue it.
Meng Chao was the first person to come into contact with the Shenbian Capsule.
Among the series of robberies last night, the material warehouse of Super Star Resources suffered the most heavy losses.
He is not an official investigator of the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau, but his identity in this case is that of the victim and the reporter.
In addition, I have a good relationship with Shen Yupeng, so I can go find out some information first.
What Ye Xiaoxing means is that the scope of this case is so large and the impact is quite bad. It is estimated that no matter the investigation bureau or the tribunal, the family will definitely not be able to bear it.
When the time comes, we will definitely coordinate all aspects of resources and jointly investigate and handle the case.
Now he and Lu Siya will continue to investigate along the line of "White Ghost, Earthquake, Abyss Demonic Eye". Since Meng Chao has a transcendent identity, he might as well go through Shen Yupeng first to see what the court's intention is.
Meng Chao knew that the relationship between the tribunal and the investigation bureau was complicated. There had been minor frictions many times when competing for jurisdiction over cases. It was like two sophisticated machines with complex structures. It was not easy to piece together to form a synergy.
