"Actually, I returned to Tianhai this time to investigate the case of the ghost king's arm. Because the case involved many people, I chose to return secretly, but now I am in trouble."

The fat man said seriously.

"Trouble? What trouble? You were hunted down?"

"Of course it's not that exaggerated. It's just that I can't enter the Demon Hunt Bureau now. I want to investigate the secret files of the Demon Hunt Bureau and see if I can find some clues from it."

"So what do you mean?"

"I want you to go into the archives and retrieve some secret files."

"That's it?" Lin Mo was a little speechless, he thought it was a big deal.

He glanced at the fat man: "Speaking of your skill, isn't it easy to enter the file room?"

The fat man was about to speak when Mark appeared at the door: "The file room of the Demon Hunt Bureau is not easy to enter. No one without special authority can easily enter."

"If you want to enter the archives room, in addition to permission, you must also apply for approval from above. Only after the approval of the provincial capital headquarters can you be eligible to enter the archives room."

"So troublesome?" Chen He frowned.

"So except for the chief, no one in Tianhai City can enter or leave casually."

I saw Mark pondering for a moment: "It's really not possible, why don't you let me try? For example, find Director Lei Yu or something."

Chen He shook his head: "No, not to mention that the director will not agree easily, even if he agrees, it is easy to scare the snake away."

"Chen He is right. Entering the archives room so blatantly, it won't be long before the news reaches the provincial capital, and my mission will be for naught."

Mark stared at the fat man with a strange expression: "Speaking of which, what is your mission? Do you still need to investigate the secret files in the archives room?"

The fat man took a breath: "Okay, since that's the case, I won't hide it from you."

"Actually, I came to Tianhai this time to investigate what happened back then."

"What happened back then?"

"About five years ago, the Ninth Ghost King Chiku escaped from Ghost Island and fled all the way to the Eastern Continent.

Gu Mo, the strongest demon hunter at the headquarters of the World Alliance, chased him all the way, and finally caught up with the ninth ghost king in Tianhai City. After several days of fierce fighting, Gu Mo fought hard to get seriously injured, finally defeated the ghost king, and cut off an arm of the ninth ghost king.

Unwilling to fail, the Ninth Ghost King split into nine split bodies and fled in all directions.

At that time, it was the Demon Hunting Bureau of our provincial capital that was in charge of supporting Gu Mo. The eight teams made their best efforts to besiege the ghost king split body together.

In the end, it persisted until the arrival of strong reinforcements from the headquarters, and successfully sealed its eight split bodies.

Although the ninth split body escaped, it was severely injured by Gu Mo and could not recover its strength for a short time. "

Having said that, the fat man's tone became lower and lower:

"Although the ghost king has sealed eight split bodies, there is still one split body planning to liberate these clones."

"What does this have to do with the Ghost King's arm?" Chen He asked.

"This is the strange thing, because after the end of the war, the arm cut off by Gu Mo disappeared mysteriously. In the next few years, a red crystal began to spread secretly in the upper echelons of the provincial capital."

"It is said that this is a mysterious crystal that can improve physical fitness. I have not found its source through various investigations, but after my analysis, I found that this thing is related to several sacrificial tragedies that have occurred in recent years."

"It's just that I have been suffering from lack of evidence. This time I heard news from Tianhai City, so I rushed back immediately."

"Red crystal?" Mark and Chen He looked at each other with strange expressions.

"Could it be the things collected by the seventh team?" Mark couldn't help muttering.

"Have you ever seen that red crystal?" The fat man couldn't help asking.

Chen He didn't hide anything, and repeated what they saw before, causing the fat man to bow his head in thought with a serious face.

After a while, he slowly raised his head: "The seventh team... Where is the ghost king's arm?"

"I don't know. When we woke up, we were already lying in the hospital." Mark said innocently.

The fat man hugged his hands, his expression was sometimes serious and sometimes relaxed, as if he had found some kind of breakthrough: "It seems that the ghost king's arm is indeed related to some people."

The fat man turned around and patted Chen He on the shoulder: "Chen He, I need your help. Help me distract the guards from the Demon Hunt Bureau. I want to sneak into the archives to investigate the information."

Chen He was not surprised that he had such an idea.

The Ghost Hand had confessed to itself that it had been making some kind of deal with the insiders of the Demon Hunt Bureau in the provincial capital all these years.

Although these things are secret, but now it seems that they are not without flaws.

"Fatty, you came to Tianhai to investigate the ghost king's arm?"

"No, there is also the case that the Eighth Team that encircled and suppressed the Ninth Ghost King was wiped out."

"Why is it related to the eighth team again?" Chen He was even more confused.

Mark tugged at the corner of Chen He's clothes, and whispered in his ear: "Boss, let me tell you a secret, our chief was actually a member of the Eighth Team back then."

"Director Lei Yu?"

"That's right, he couldn't participate in that operation due to some delays. Later, the Eighth Team was inexplicably wiped out, which directly caused the last split body of the Ninth Ghost King to escape."

"Later Lei Yu parachuted into Tianhai and became the current director of the Tianhai Demon Hunting Bureau, which has continued to this day."

"I think Director Lei Yu must have come here to investigate what happened back then."

"Could it be that the eighth team was wiped out by the ghost king's split group?" Chen He guessed.

"It seems so on the surface, but after my investigation, I'm afraid it's not that simple." The fat man on the side took the words.

"You mean that there is something wrong with the eighth team's destruction?"

"That's right! This is my second mission in Tianhai City."

"First, investigate the ghost king's arm, and second, investigate the case of the eighth team's annihilation that year."

The fat man has confessed his mission, and looked expectantly at Chen He, hoping to get his help.

"Then why don't you go to Lei Yu directly? He is the chief of the bureau. Wouldn't it be easier for you to contact him directly?" Chen He was puzzled.

The fat man shook his head:

"I don't believe anyone now, because during the war, Lei Yu, who never left the team, unexpectedly left the team temporarily to perform a mission alone, and then the eighth team suffered a tragedy."

"You mean, Lei Yu may have participated in this matter?" Chen He asked back.

"Although it is not certain yet, the possibility cannot be ruled out. That's why I am so worried, and I don't want to scare the snake away."

Hearing this, Chen He finally sorted out the context.

He looked at Mark: "How is it? Do you have any ideas?"

But Mark touched his chin: "Are you sure you don't want to tell Director Lei Yu about this?"

"You also heard what the fat man said. This is a strange thing."

"But I always feel that the director is not that kind of person..." Mark muttered.

"Since that's the case, I'll take care of this job!" Chen He pushed Mark: "When do you think you have a chance to sneak into the archives?"

"Today, tonight is a good time."

"Tonight? What do you say?"

"I received news that the Demon Hunt Bureau plans to attack the Zhou family tonight, and then you can take the opportunity to sneak into the archives of the Demon Hunt Bureau and look it up casually."

Unexpectedly, Chen He grabbed Mark by the collar: "What did you just say? The Witch Hunt is going to start tonight? Why didn't you tell me?"

Mark looked aggrieved: "I... I was just about to say..."
