Chapter 452: Chapter 452: An Extremely Meticulous Mind

"At that time, I went to the restroom, but actually, I just went outside for a look. I found an old-style bathhouse from a former factory not far from the rescue station, and there were two people there, so I watched them for a while."

"And then?" Ye Xuan asked.

Tang Xuerou supported her chin with her right thumb and continued, "Those two people seemed to be eating something. I didn’t see clearly what it was, but whatever it was, it probably wasn’t anything good."

"Take me to the public bathhouse to have a look." Ye Xuan said.

"You want to get involved in this?" Tang Xuerou asked.

"Rather than saying I want to get involved, it’s better to say that I want to earn points, and... I’m genuinely curious about that dark shadow." Ye Xuan said.

Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, a smile flickered in Tang Xuerou’s eyes: "Okay, follow me."

Under the guidance of Tang Xuerou, Ye Xuan arrived at the entrance of the factory’s public bathhouse. The bathhouse was an old-style building with columns on the first floor.

"They were hiding behind this column at that time." Tang Xuerou pointed to a column in front of them.

Ye Xuan and Ke Feng exchanged glances and quickly walked over.

Just as they were about to reach the column, Ye Xuan smelled a very strong, foul odor, and as he felt sick, he looked beyond the column and saw what was on the ground.

What was on the ground was even more revolting.

It was a yellowish-white substance, with some light purple mucus.

"Oh my, what in the world is this?" Ke Feng covered his mouth, barely able to hold it in.

Ye Xuan squatted down, examining the stuff on the ground closely.

The light purple mucus was probably the blood of the evil dragon, but the yellowish-white substance...

Right.

Ye Xuan remembered slicing the evil dragon’s brain with a wire during the fight.

"It’s the brain matter of the evil dragon." Ye Xuan said.

"Brain matter?" Upon hearing that, Ke Feng rolled his eyes: "Ugh... that’s disgusting..."

Ye Xuan stood up again, turned to look at Tang Xuerou behind him, and Tang Xuerou nodded: "It seems they were eating the brain matter of the evil dragon, and these two must be the individuals who mutated at the rescue station."

"No, at that time, the boss and I were talking to the dark shadow. Who gave them the brain matter?" Ke Feng wondered.

"Hey, what are all of you doing standing over here?"

At that moment, a member of the action team spotted Ye Xuan and the others, waved at them, and Ye Xuan had to reply, "We found something really disgusting here."

"Really?" Upon hearing that, the squad member stepped toward them.

"What is this stuff? Evil dragon’s blood?"

The squad member came over to take a look, found the stuff on the ground revolting, took a photo with a camera for record-keeping, and was about to ask Ye Xuan and the others when a new notification came through the walkie-talkie.

"The dark shadow has been found. According to several members of the action teams, the dark shadow did indeed leave the rescue station but went to join them in dealing with a few people by the factory. The dark shadow has been with them the whole time, and the matter of the mutants is indeed unrelated to the dark shadow."

"Received, received."

The squad member responded accordingly.

"How could this happen? Could it be that it wasn’t the work of the shadow?" Ke Feng asked Ye Xuan in a lowered voice after hearing this.

Ye Xuan frowned, feeling that things weren’t so simple.

"Evil Dragon mucus has been found in the bathroom area." A member of the action team continued to report through the walkie-talkie.

"Received, someone will be sent over immediately." The voice of Zhou Shan came through the walkie-talkie.

At this moment, Ke Feng suddenly clapped his hands: "I’ve got it, it must be the shadow who found a lackey to deliver their brain matter to them."

"Isn’t the shadow’s lackey that overbearing young punk? Besides, the rescue station is full of middle-aged and elderly people; there wouldn’t be anyone left to do their bidding." Ye Xuan said.

Ke Feng scratched his head: "Then I really can’t figure out what the hell is going on."

"Tang Xuerou." Ye Xuan turned his face towards Tang Xuerou once again, "Apart from what you’ve found, have you discovered anything else?"

Tang Xuerou nodded: "Yes, I saw another shadow on the rooftop."

"Another shadow?" Ye Xuan said in surprise.

"Basically, at the same time you guys saw that shadow inside, I saw another one outside," Tang Xuerou continued.

"There are two shadows? Are they twins?" Ke Feng asked with his mouth agape.

Ye Xuan shook his head: "No, I guess it must be his ability. This shadow, his Spiritual Power must be similar to cloning or something."

"Since his skill is cloning, then why would he leave the rescue station? It would be better for him to keep a clone inside the rescue station continuously. In that case, no one would suspect him." Ke Feng said.

"He left the rescue station on purpose for us to see, so that later, when the people inside the station start mutating, we’d suspect him first.

In this way, when he shows proof that he was with the action team, we’d become the prime suspects instead." Ye Xuan let out a long sigh, "He has calculated everything."

At this point, Ye Xuan couldn’t help feeling a chill down his spine.

In the death game, the people he’s dealt with at most would use their newfound powers to do as they pleased after the game began. But this shadow was different; aside from possessing extremely special abilities, he was also deep-thinking.

Understanding of the game, control over human nature, arrangement of events...

"Do you feel that this shadow is quite frightening?" Tang Xuerou leaned closer to Ye Xuan at this point and whispered in his ear.

Ye Xuan turned his face, staring at Tang Xuerou.

"If you’ve already speculated that people here will eventually suspect us, then why are we still staying here?" Tang Xuerou continued.

"Yeah, boss, Miss Xuerou makes sense," Ke Feng chimed in as well.

Just as their eyes met, there was a noise from not far away. Ye Xuan knew it must be Zhou Shan coming with a troop of people towards the public bathhouse.

"Let’s leave first." Ye Xuan signaled to Ke Feng and Tang Xuerou with his eyes, and the three of them quickly left.

"Attention to the special action team, now commence a full search for three individuals—Ye Xuan, Tang Xuerou, Ke Feng! These three are highly likely to be the creators of the mutants."

"Received."

Hearing the response from the walkie-talkie, Zhou Shan slowly put down the walkie-talkie in his hand and slapped the back of a team member in front of him hard: "Hurry up and search for me."

"Yes, yes..." The team member quickly responded and rushed forward.

Zhou Shan glanced at the Evil Dragon mucus behind the pillar, his face changed: "You guys, come with me to the parking lot."
