Chapter 20 The Ear of the Earth

"A drone worth 16 citizen points just disappeared? This time it was tragic. The control device was activated without reporting. How should I write this report?"

Wuyan looked at the monitor in his hand that had lost its signal, and fell into deep thought. His delicate face showed a depressed look, with a bulging face and a frown.

"Is it the wind and snow that interfered with it, or was it discovered by Li Xun?"

After thinking about it, the most important thing now was to make up for the loss. Wuyan suddenly stood up, packed his things, and was about to leave.

A colleague from the circulation center was surprised when he saw this: "It's not even close to get off work yet, where are you going?"

"I have something to do temporarily. Please check in for me."

Wu Yan often works as a lurker, and wherever he goes, he can quickly develop friendships with the people there.

"I'm going to meet a very important person." Seeing his colleague's confused look, Wuyan thought for a moment. This colleague was quite upright, so it would be better for him to give a simple explanation.

The colleague in the circulation center said nothing, nodded, showed encouragement, and said: "No problem, leave it to me. Don't worry and pursue your happiness!"

He smiled perfunctorily and said, "Okay, thank you for your encouragement. I hope it will succeed."

In fact, for Wuyan, it doesn't matter whether he clocks in or not.

Because she has the authority to obey the authority in urgent matters, the reason why she explains to her colleagues is purely to maintain her personality.

After all, even for first-class citizens, establishment units like the Six Centers of Qifeng Town require a high price to compete for.

If you dismiss it, you are a bit out of line.

What Wuyan is going to see now is the extraordinary friend she met outside the secret police station. This person's name is Wu Kesong, and he is an intelligence dealer.

He has a B-level ability, the Earth's Ear, which also has little effect on combat power. It is said to be able to listen to the voices of all things, and has a wider range than Wuyan's Hidden Eye.

This ability was used by Wu Kesong to obtain secret information and sell it to all parties, and it worked repeatedly.

Of course, unlike Wu Yan, although Wu Kesong's combat power was not blessed by extraordinary abilities, he was not weak.

According to Wuyan's understanding, this person has been inherited from the Star Butterfly Sect, an interstellar martial arts sect, and his combat power is comparable to some extraordinary beings with high levels of the sixth level of Burning Energy Technique.

In a deserted alley in the center of the town, there is a game store called "30 Years of Bloody War".

There, Wuyan met Wu Kesong who was playing a two-dimensional fighting game.

"Help me listen to someone's heart." Wu Yan said standing behind Wu Kesong.

"Shameless? You still have the nerve to come to me?" Wu Kesong was showing off his skills. He answered while operating the character to hug his opponent, throw him into a hug, then force him into a corner and deliver a critical hit.

"My code name is Wuyan. Do you think I have the nerve to look for you?" Wuyan's face was expressionless.

"I, no, help, you, listen!"

Wu Kesong snorted, "I listened to you last time, but as a result, you caught the person, but the promised reward was not given to me! That's 50 citizen points, not a small amount."

"It's not that I won't give it to you, but you've been blacklisted by the AI ​​system. There's something wrong with your identity certificate and you can't get it. You can't blame me, right?" Wuyan said with a smile.

"Hmph, didn't you already know that I was blacklisted and wanted to trick me into working for you for free? I have already seen through your secret police station. If you can save some money, you can save some money. Let me tell you, this kind of thinking is wrong. of!

For this kind of concept that is reluctant to spend money and invest, if it were not suppressed by the AI ​​​​governing system, the secret police station would have become a sieve over the years, and there would be people of all kinds. "

Wu Kesong cursed.

"Are you doubting my character? I can vouch for it. When I asked you to check something, I didn't know that you had been blocked. I only accidentally learned about the situation after the matter was resolved!"

When Wuyan spoke, his eyes were focused and his face was serious.Well, seriously.

The ability of the Earth's Ear is very miraculous. It's like wearing a telescope. You can see clearly in the distance and blurry in front of you.Extraordinary people have divine fire seeds, which can restrain their souls and bodies and prevent them from revealing their true feelings easily.

The unconsciously revealed voices of those extraordinary people form special fluctuations in the void world, which are more easily captured by the ears of the earth from a distance.

Therefore, the secret that Wu Kesong has always kept is that the closer the transcendent is to him, the harder it is for him to hear the other person's secrets.

But Wuyan is not an ordinary person. She has already guessed Wu Kesong's weaknesses.

"Really?" Wu Kesong hesitated and looked at Wu Yan's chest, "Okay, since you pledged your chest, I will forgive you for the time being. Who do you want to investigate?"

Wuyan smiled, as gentle and warm as the spring breeze. The eyes he looked at Wu Kesong were full of the kindness of an old mother. You little tsundere, can't you deal with me?

"Don't laugh like that, it's a waste of your rare youth and beauty." Wu Kesong stopped the fighting game and took a portfolio handed over by Wu Yan.

When Wu Kesong saw Li Xun's file, he glanced at Wuyan in surprise. He didn't ask any more questions and simply closed his eyes and activated his abilities.

Ten minutes later, Wu Kesong's earlobes twitched, he opened his eyes and said:
"The family background is unknown. The identity certificate was issued after the disaster ten years ago. He has the best ice fishing ability in Qifeng Town. His energy-burning technique... is actually close to the third level?"

"I know all of this, nothing else? Is that all?" Wuyan said dissatisfied.

"No, I can only hear the superficial and obvious sounds of his heart."

Wu Kesong shook his head and said:
"There are a lot of noises around his soul body. It's too deep for me to hear clearly."

Wuyan said in surprise: "Noise? What kind of noise? Please tell me specifically."

"Is it that kind of mumbling to oneself? It's a bit like the kind of psychopath who often talks to himself and asks questions to himself." Wu Kesong said.

Wu Yan frowned and said, "He looks very normal. He doesn't know your abilities and deliberately prevents you from eavesdropping, right?"

"No, it's too troublesome." Wu Kesong shook his head, "I can only say that I can't hear much about this person, so I can't help you."

"Really? Alas, I overestimated you and looked forward to you too much. It's my fault. I shouldn't have pinned my hopes on you. I'm sorry for wasting so much of your time."

Wuyan's tone was solemn, and he shook his head with a look of self-blame.

After hearing this, Wu Kesong didn't know why, but became unhappy:
"What's going on with you? Since you're looking for me, feel free to leave it to me. When has Wu Kesong's ability been unreliable? Go and bring me the objects that the target often comes into contact with. I can find a way to hear deeper voices."

"No problem, I'll look for him in the next two days." Wuyan's expression changed instantly, and he smiled, "I'll leave it to you, the most loyal listener on earth."

……

On the other side, Fang Liujiu's knowledge base has updated the production method of the psychic camera.

When Li Xun asked, the production method was indeed as Fang Liujiu said. It was very simple. It was enough to make an input and output interface that could be connected to Fang Liujiu's body.

Normally, you also need to make an activator, controller, and decoder.

In this way, the eye nucleus can be controlled to record what is recorded, and then complex signals can be converted into information that can be interpreted and stored.

However, after Fang Liujiu's knowledge base was updated, it already had activation, control, and decoding capabilities, so he only needed to make an interface.

"It just so happens that this drone has suitable accessories inside. Let's dismantle it, so we don't have to spend citizen points to buy materials?" Fang Liujiu said excitedly.

Li Xun was stunned for a moment, then said sadly:
"Go, go, you loser, it's not like you can't afford accessories, why do you want to dismantle a drone that is at least tens of thousands of citizens in size?"

"No, Brother Xun, this kind of adapter usually involves extraordinary materials, and it shouldn't be cheap." Fang Liujiu said aggrievedly.

As a result, Li Xun used the probability system to verify that it was true that the probability that he could not afford the adapter accessories with his current wealth was 100%, and his face turned dark.
