Chapter 1500 - 1500 Imprisonment
1500 Imprisonment
“Time is of the essence, please act immediately.”
Fang Heng looked at the other party and could not help but fall silent. He quickly made a decision in his heart.
Follow them?
Ruan Ziying had said to try not to have any conflicts with the local forces.
Bang! Bang!!
Just as Fang Heng was hesitating, two gunshots rang out.
Whoosh!
Fang Heng perceived the bullet’s trajectory and quickly dodged it.
Cole, who was not far away from him, was not so lucky. He had been stabbed with an anesthetic needle in his shoulder. He immediately fell back in a daze and fell into the trash pile behind him.
The middle-aged man on the screen shouted, “Take him down!”
Immediately, more than ten fully armed elite team members rushed in from outside the door and raised their guns at Fang Heng.
“Behave yourself! Don’t move!”
…
At the same time, in a basement outside the city, Ruan Ziying and Shan Fucai followed the source of the pollution to this place, but unfortunately, they found nothing.
This was a secret residence left behind by Edoma.
The scene was very messy. It looked like it had been ransacked not long ago.
Shan Fucai hesitated for a while after picking up the call. Then, he said in a deep voice, “Yes. From the traces extracted from the scene, it’s confirmed that it’s at least an SS-level pollution source.”
SS-level!
Ruan Ziying was extremely surprised.
Such a high-level pollution source was extremely rare. She had only heard of it.
“Then Fang Heng he…”
“Yes, he was in close contact with the source of the contamination. He must have been contaminated. The highest level of alert has been activated. The Corruption Arbitrator Council has taken action. Fang Heng has been temporarily brought into Blue River shelter.”
“Alright then…”
A big client had to be contaminated.
This was big trouble!
The only way to save Fang Heng now was to quickly find the source of the pollution and get rid of it.
Shan Fucai took a notebook from an investigator beside him and started flipping through it.
“Looks like Edoma is researching the occult, so she should have come into contact with the taboo.”
He opened the title page and pointed at an occult rune imprint.
Shan Fucai frowned and called Ruan Ziying over.
“Ziying, take a look.”
Ruan Ziying leaned over and saw the imprint on the title page. She covered her mouth in surprise.
The two of them observed the runes and looked at each other at the same time. A hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.
“Edoma is actually a conservative?”
Then what about the tree and the pollution source found in the manor?
…
On the other side, Fang Heng and Cole entered the unmanned aircraft under instructions and rode the helicopter into a large shelter on the edge of the river.
The dosage of anesthesia was not high, and Cole had already woken up halfway.
Under the instructions of a robot, the two of them got off the plane and changed into a set of white clothes. They followed the robot forward.
“This is the Blue River shelter. This is a pollution disposal facility that the Corruption Arbitrator Council spent a lot of money to build. It was built to protect the people who have been contaminated.”
Cole didn’t feel like he was imprisoned at all. Instead, he felt like he was here for a vacation. He looked around with great interest and gave Fang Heng some basic information.
Fang Heng looked around and pursed his lips. He gestured at the bracelet he was asked to wear, “I think it’s more like a modern prison.”
Previously, he had held himself back from making a move, and in the end, someone pointed a gun at him and he boarded the plane.
This feeling was very unpleasant.
It was Ruan Ziying who had repeatedly warned him not to become enemies with the local world, so Fang Heng chose to temporarily endure.
“Because of the pollution, our clothes and shoes have been changed to a single white color. White can effectively resist pollution. In addition, the bracelets on our hands have the ability to locate and purify the mind. The surveillance you mentioned is one aspect, and the other is to resist pollution.”
Fang Heng asked, “What exactly do you mean by the contamination?”
“Uh… Actually, I don’t know either. I do have a general idea, but I don’t understand. Just treat it as an infectious disease with an unknown infection route. In terms of mental health, people who are exposed to the source of pollution are easily contaminated. Of course, contaminated people can also spread pollution. The probability of spreading it to others in the early stages is lower, and it’s easier to spread it after symptoms appear.”
“And then? What happened after being contaminated? What will happen?”
“For most people, to be corrupted is probably an inexplicable death.”
Fang Heng was even more confused.
“Most of them? What about the rest?”
“That would be terrible. You’ll become a monster that’s neither human nor a ghost, and you might even become a new source of infection. These are all secrets that I’ve been exploring.”
The construction machine brought the two of them all the way into the Central Building B prison and into a long passageway.
On both sides of the passage were large floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Behind the glass windows were small rooms. Inside the rooms were people who were also contaminated.
Finally, the two of them were led into two small rooms by artificial machines.
“Buzz… Ka!”
After entering the room, the glass window on one side closed, completely sealing the room.
Through the glass window, Fang Heng could easily see Cole in the room next door, as well as the people held in other small cells in the prison.
It seemed like these were all ‘patients.’
There was a curtain beside the glass window that could be closed, but Fang Heng saw the surveillance camera installed in the room at a glance.
The curtains were useless.
Cole was excited. He took out a pen and paper that he carried with him and knocked on the window a few times, trying to communicate with his fellow patients in the cell next door.
However, the other patients did not seem to be willing to pay attention to Cole.
After a few tries, Cole retreated.
He felt that the time they had spent together was still too short, and they were still a little unfamiliar with each other. If he waited a few more days, he would definitely be able to get what he wanted from them.
Unable to get anything from his ward mates, Cole could only settle for Fang Heng.
“Don’t be nervous. There are people taking care of our three meals a day. We just need to wait here until the source of the pollution is eliminated. At that time, the pollution on our bodies will be eliminated, and we can go out.”
“Source?”
“Yes, I guess it should be the thing that caused the manor to explode yesterday, right?”
Cole took out a notebook from his pocket and leaned over. He said, “Tell me more about it. What’s so special about that manor? Think about what you missed out, and I’ll help you analyze it.”
Fang Heng did not answer. Instead, he looked at the people in the other cells and asked, “Are they all contaminated? With so many people locked up together, aren’t they afraid of spreading the disease?”
“No, the pollution will only happen once. I reckon that I have long been contaminated by you. Besides, as long as the source is eliminated, the contaminated people will gradually recover. At that time, we can leave from here.”
