But having explored countless beautiful landscapes, this artificial scenic area was simply not to its liking.
Rabbit Aotian's noise made Mu Yu's head buzz.
It's not enough that it's noisy; it also makes a ruckus.
In just twenty minutes, covering a distance of over a thousand meters, Rabbit Aotian made five children cry, and about ten other children insisted on taking Rabbit home.
Mu Yu: Heartbroken.jpg
He asked Ruan Mingchu for help, but Ruan Mingchu was also at a loss. If he could handle the child, he would have already won over Liya.
One can imagine how chaotic their home would be if they had children.
Faced with the parents' condemning gazes, Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu looked up at the sky and the ground, avoiding their eyes.
If they're so capable, they should go and argue with the rabbits. Let's see what kind of ability they have.
The outer patrol team of the Miracle Organization also spotted Ruan Mingchu, Mu Yu, and the two rabbits. They even stopped for a while to watch Tu Aotian act silly, without considering them as suspicious individuals.
Behind the seemingly foolish owner chasing after his pet rabbit, Ruan Mingchu's mental energy was secretly investigating every inch of the scenic area, and he eventually found the entrance to the Miracle Organization's base.
The entrance truly embodies the principle of "hiding in plain sight," with no one guessing that the ticket booth at the scenic area's entrance is their exit.
It is said that this large, antique-style ticket booth was once a popular spot for internet celebrities to take photos, with hundreds or even thousands of people coming here every day to take pictures with it.
I have to say, the Miracle Organization is truly skilled and daring.
As night falls, the Miracle Patrol team, disguised as security guards, patrols the scenic area, asking tourists who linger to leave, and detaining anyone found to be acting suspiciously.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu rushed out before the scenic area closed, just in time to brush past the patrol team heading deeper into the area.
Mu Yu said, "These people feel different to me now than they do during the day." They seem lifeless.
Ruan Minh Thu also had some guesses, but everything still needs to be verified.
After leaving the scenic area, Mu Yu, carrying two rabbits, knocked on the ticket booth window: "Where is the nearest public toilet? My rabbits need to poop."
"No, can I have a plastic bag?"
Before Mu Yu could react, Tu Aotian had already started to pounce on him, trying to scratch him. How could this great rabbit be so uncivilized and unhygienic?!
"You see, it's unhappy. If there's no toilet, it'll hold it in, and when it can't hold it in anymore, it'll spray out."
Ticket seller: ...That's disgusting.
Damn it, city people are so fussy. Even a rabbit has to go to the toilet to poop.
Menhao let out a fart, perfectly timed, and the stench was overwhelming.
The ticket seller, nearly fainting from the stench, said, "Come in and use our staff restroom!"
Under normal circumstances, he would not want tourists to use their staff toilets. For a period of time, the toilets were made available to tourists, and then the toilets exploded.
The scenic area opens at 8 a.m. every day, but by 10 a.m. the toilets are full of unfluxable feces and the ground is covered in a mess of excrement.
But there aren't many people outside now, so it doesn't matter if we use it.
After working as a ticket seller for a long time, one might actually start to think of oneself as just a ticket seller, forgetting that one is also a minor member of a terrorist and illegal organization.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu successfully entered the ticket booth and followed the ticket seller into the restroom. After confirming that there were no cameras in the restroom, Mu Yu chopped the ticket seller unconscious with a single chop, grabbed the man by the collar, straightened him up, and compared his height to hers.
The ticket seller was a Beta, of medium height, about the same height as Ruan Mingchu. Mu Yu had no choice but to have Ruan Mingchu pretend to be the ticket seller while he waited outside.
"Such dangerous tasks as venturing deep into enemy territory should be left to Alphas," Mu Yu thought, feeling a little frustrated. He realized he often couldn't do what the treasure app taught him.
It's still too weak.
My desire to become stronger grows stronger every day.
Having completed the process of searching the spiritual sea, Ruan Mingchu had a complete understanding of the ticket seller. He then took out his disguise tools and had Mu Yu disguise him. With his superb acting skills, no one would have noticed that the person under the ticket seller's shell had changed.
His main purpose on this trip was to find evidence that the miracle was illegal, and it would be even better if he could take the two mermaids who were still here with him.
The main business of the miracle was the resale of illegal items, such as prohibited drugs, protected animals and plants, and women and children.
It was more like a black market than a night market.
Once the ledgers or contraband are found, an arrest operation can be carried out.
Although the sales clerk had worked at Miracle for many years and was considered a veteran, he lacked ambition and knew nothing about the business, so Ruan Mingchu had to investigate on his own.
After entering the base hidden in the mountain, Ruan Mingchu habitually went to find the toilet, but as soon as his mental energy extended out of the toilet, an alarm sounded.
Patrol teams quickly arrived and began investigating the problem.
Fortunately, two people happened to be nearby, being affectionate and releasing pheromones in a moment of passion. They were fined 5,000 star coins and that was the end of it.
The young couple left with long faces, leaving Ruan Mingchu in the restroom, bewildered and uncertain.
Ruan Mingchu was certain that half of the reason the alarm was triggered was due to his mental power.
The application of spiritual power to the ego is not common in this day and age, so the fact that there are instruments for detecting pure spiritual power here is completely unexpected for Ruan Mingchu.
Thanks to the young couple for their contribution, otherwise we would have failed right at the start.
He reflected on his actions and decided to continue exploring spiritual power, but now he could only search for it in person.
Ruan Mingchu recalled the base map from the ticket seller's memory, but the ticket seller only frequented a few places, none of which were classified.
Having it is equivalent to not having it.
It was dinnertime, and there were people walking around everywhere. Ruan Mingchu blended in without attracting attention. But it wouldn't be appropriate for him to wander around aimlessly once there were fewer people around.
Ruan Mingchu tried to release a little mental energy in the crowd again, and almost at the same time, the alarm above his head went off again.
But everyone is used to it.
"It's going off again, it's so annoying! Can't they just remove the alarms from places like the cafeteria? With so many people around, what's the big deal if a little pheromone is accidentally released?!"
"He has several serious illnesses!"
"Stop bothering me. Another big cargo was just hijacked. The higher-ups are angry and might take it out on you."
"Damn it, all they do is bully us and have no skills."
"Who told us to be even less capable?"
"Security at the base has increased recently; we're not used to not being checked two or three times a day."
"You're a masochist..."
Ruan Mingchu understood. Because he and Mu Yu had taken Runyu away, the people of Miracle were very angry, and martial law had been declared at the base recently.
I need to make the most of my time in the cafeteria to find some useful information.
The alarms above his head kept going off, but no patrol team came to check the fines, so Nguyen Minh Thu began to act recklessly.
He observed several people who seemed to be of high status, approached them, and directly used his mental power to penetrate their mental seas, finding what they needed before slipping away.
This method is extremely mentally taxing, and Ruan Mingchu only uses it in critical situations.
The person he ambushed would only feel a sudden headache, and wouldn't feel anything else.
While chewing his food, Ruan Mingchu sorted out and categorized the information he had received in his mind. The alarm above his head was still playing music, which Ruan Mingchu found acceptable.
Ruan Mingchu quickly obtained the overall map of the base and the locations of important confidential rooms. Indeed, mental power was an invincible weapon.
If we're talking about people who wander around without attracting attention, the only ones are probably the cleaners, if the cleaners here don't have assigned work areas by zone number.
Ruan Mingchu was still pondering how to get to those rooms tactfully when someone suddenly appeared and asked him to have a meeting.
The ticket seller knew this person who suddenly appeared, but they weren't close; the two usually didn't interact much.
Could it be that his disguise has been exposed, and he's luring his prey into a trap?
Ruan Mingchu considered many possible developments, but still followed the man the ticket seller called Little Red Hair.
Little Red Hair chattered on the way, "I finally caught you! How long have you been skipping work? Don't think you can look down on everything just because you're related to the Left Vice Envoy. The Right Vice Envoy has been keeping a close eye on us lately."
Ruan Mingchu: ...
He hurriedly searched through the ticket seller's memories and actually found some remnants of the Left Deputy Envoy in some obscure corner.
Hmm... The ticket seller's most vivid memory of the Left Deputy Envoy was him catching crickets everywhere with his bare bottom exposed.
Absolutely ridiculous! Just how lazy is that ticket seller?!
Ruan Mingchu entered the meeting room without saying a word, ignoring Xiao Hongmao's incessant chatter.
Little Red Hair is used to it. He talks to himself, and as long as he doesn't get distracted, that's fine. More people means more morale.
And so, Ruan Mingchu sat in the conference room where the top executives of Miracle were gathered, and obtained what he wanted without lifting a finger.
Who told them to be so audacious as to write such illegal things in a PowerPoint presentation? Wouldn't it be a betrayal of heaven and earth and one's conscience to feed such delicious food to someone who is being fed to them?
After the meeting ended, Nguyen Minh Thu quickly ran back to the ticket seller's room. Everyone else was used to it and even expressed surprise that he had come to the meeting.
The next day, as soon as it was time to start work, Ruan Mingchu went to work at the ticket booth as a ticket seller did every day.
Last night, Mu Yu pretended that the ticket seller was Ruan Mingchu and took her away. Now, he will return the ticket seller and leave with Ruan Mingchu.
Anyway, the ticket booth is an automatic ticket vending machine, and the ticket seller's role is just to answer tourists' questions. Few people would notice if he was unconscious.
Perhaps Mu Yu went too far; the ticket seller remained unconscious until he was apprehended and sent to jail to sleep soundly.
Ruan Minh Thu wrote in his notebook.
1. Rescuing the Mermaid (2/12)
2. Find Galo (0/1)
3. Head to the Mermaid World (0/1)
4. Investigate the truth
Fourthly, he didn't write down the progress because it involved a wide range of issues, and he had no idea how big that darkness was, nor could he figure it out in a short time.
Through the search and interrogation, much information useful for the first question was obtained: the places where the ten mermaids were sold.
There has been no news of Galo's whereabouts to this day, but given Runyu and Mengshuo's description of his flamboyant personality and handsome face, he certainly won't remain unknown for long.
Regarding the third question, it is certain that the Miracle Organization does possess something that can temporarily pinpoint the location of the wormhole.
However, the group that was arrested was just a branch of Miracle. Their main task was to organize night markets and deal with the smuggled goods sent to them from above. Auctioning the mermaids was just a side job.
I've only heard rumors about that kind of thing.
Of the entire branch, only the Divine Envoy had contact with the higher-ups, but during the capture process, both the Divine Envoy and the Left Deputy Envoy escaped, making it impossible to obtain any useful information.
