Chapter 184 Extremely Corrosive
Sensing the confidence in Yuan Wang's tone, You Ruyu was somewhat surprised. She asked softly, "Have you found out the truth?"
Yuan Wang shook his head and told You Ruyu about the news that the Azure Dragon God had cleared the name of this matter.
After they finished speaking, the two looked at each other and both saw the hesitation in each other's eyes.
How could this matter possibly warrant the attention of the Azure Dragon God?
“You said…” Yuan Wang had only uttered two words when her voice trailed off. She quickly glanced at the staff member waiting beside her for visiting hours to end.
You Ruyu immediately understood Yuan Wang's meaning. She nodded and didn't say anything more, changing the subject to the company.
So the two chatted casually for a few more minutes. When the time was up, Yuan Wang picked up You Huai to leave. You Huai, who had finally managed to stop crying, had two more tears welling up in his eyes, which made You Ruyu's heart ache terribly.
But time was up, and there was no use in parting. You Ruyu was led back to the inner room, while You Huai was carried away by Yuan Wang.
While You Ruyu anxiously awaited news from the outside world, the authorities were tirelessly searching for the whereabouts of the water truck, and at the same time, they were also looking for relevant information about the bridge construction from more than ten years ago.
Long Xiaoxiao was very concerned about this matter. Even Rong Ming noticed Long Xiaoxiao's inexplicable obsession and specially increased the manpower invested in the search.
With many people, there is great strength. Moreover, the personnel that could be dispatched were all elites, and it did not take long to find the trace of the sprinkler truck.
When the water truck was found, a strong stench hit them. It had been driven deep into the mountains and forests, not far from where Long Xiaoxiao first took human form. The area was surrounded by dense vegetation and was usually deserted. It took the search team a lot of effort to find the place.
The stench was enough to make anyone wrinkle their nose, and some investigators even vomited after getting close enough to smell it. They weren't wearing gas masks and were currently hesitant to approach.
Upon receiving the news, Rong Ming immediately put on a gas mask and rushed over. Long Xiaoxiao also heard the news and flew to the destination with him.
Although Long Xiaoxiao was clearly hovering above the water truck, she could still clearly smell the strong stench. She carefully sensed it and found that the energy contained in the stench was faintly visible, which was the aura of a dark wizard.
Long Xiaoxiao swooped down.
The crowd below had already noticed Long Xiaoxiao's figure, and they all looked up, waiting for her to make a move with respectful expressions.
Rong Ming put on his gas mask and was about to go forward when he saw Long Xiaoxiao land not far from him.
"Azure Dragon God..." Rong Ming hadn't finished speaking when he saw Long Xiaoxiao suddenly raise her tail.
Long Xiaoxiao gently tapped the water truck's cargo compartment with the tip of its tail, as if something was shaking and the water made a clanging sound.
Seeing that Long Xiaoxiao had no intention of greeting him, Rong Ming also gave up his thoughts. He prepared to go forward with the team to inspect the sprinkler truck, but after taking only a few steps, he heard Long Xiaoxiao's deep voice.
"be careful."
Hearing the concerned words from the Azure Dragon God, Rong Ming was deeply moved and nodded earnestly, "Okay!"
After saying that, they went forward and the first thing they checked was the driver's seat.
The car locks were not open, and the side windows were tinted with one-way film, so they couldn't see inside from the outside.
Fortunately, they brought some disassembly tools and opened the car door in no time.
Gada——
The door was opened, and a stench, equally strong but different from the initial smell, rushed out.
"Ugh..." The person in charge of collecting evidence who was far away and not wearing a mask was gagging from the stench.
The scene inside left everyone stunned.
A corpse sat horribly in the driver's seat, eyes wide open, expression terrified, already beginning to decompose and stink due to the hot weather.
As soon as Long Xiaoxiao peeked out, she saw the scene before her. After a few seconds of stunned silence, she couldn't help but feel like gagging.
This was the first time she had ever seen a corpse in such a decomposed state, and the corpse was someone she knew well—Aunt Wang.
Just a few days ago, it was talking to you, and now it's turned into a rotting mess crawling with maggots in front of you. Anyone would find that unbearable.
The system detected Long Xiaoxiao's intense emotional fluctuations. Considering that the scene before her was too advanced for a five-year-old child, the system pondered for a moment, scrolled through the control panel for a while, and then silently pressed the button.
The scene before her eyes suddenly turned into a jumble of mosaics, and Long Xiaoxiao's nausea, which had been stuck in her throat, came to an abrupt end.
She asked the system blankly, "Uncle, it seems like my eyes are broken."
The system explained, "It's not broken, I just blurred it for you. Seeing too much of this kind of image will give you nightmares."
Long Xiaoxiao reluctantly accepted the system's explanation.
The investigators carried out the body, conducted a brief examination, and communicated with other departments in preparation for taking it for an autopsy.
After checking the driver's seat, they prepared to search the water tank of the sprinkler truck.
Long Xiaoxiao noticed their actions, and her initial disappointment was slightly dispelled. She looked up and carefully observed their movements.
She sensed the dark power emanating from the water-filled trunk as soon as she arrived. She considered prying it open with her tail, but worried that she might not be able to control her strength and disrupt their search plan, so she didn't make a move.
When the investigators arrived at the slot in the water tank, they discovered that it had been welded shut by someone. After discussing it for a long time, they finally decided to forcibly dismantle it.
Because it's difficult to control the degree of forceful dismantling, there's a high possibility that the water in the storage tank could gush out. But there's no time to worry about that right now. After adjusting their positions, they decisively began their work.
Bang—smack!
wow...
Water poured out, but to their surprise, the walls of the carriage were broken, and water began to trickle out.
Everything happened so fast that before anyone could react, everything went blurry.
fade away.
Long Xiaoxiao's tail swung quickly, and she decisively encircled all the people surrounding the car. Then, with a sudden pull, everyone was brought to a safe distance.
Shila-
The water gushed from the carriage and fell to the ground, followed by a sizzling sound like something being thrown into a frying pan. The soil sprayed with water was completely transformed, turning black and emitting a foul stench.
The people who had been dragged away by Long Xiaoxiao finally realized what had happened, and were terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat and filled with lingering fear.
What if they get soaked...
Rongming hurriedly grabbed various containers to try and capture the liquid, but found that no matter what material it was made of, it would soften and corrode until it turned into a black sludge.
Rongming nearly got the liquid on himself several times, but he reacted quickly and escaped unscathed.
Rongming even brought a large bucket made of the same material as the water truck, but it still didn't work.
