Your knowledge is too taboo

Chapter 25
"You... haven't had a good rest?"

On the third night, Lu Mingcheng took Chen Qing to dinner again.

As soon as he sat in the restaurant, he was startled when he saw Chen Qing's depressed expression.

Chen Qing sighed: "Nothing, nothing."

There was no way he could tell Lu Mingcheng that he had been struggling with whether he should practice according to the method recorded on the stone tablet since the morning two days ago, right?
I didn't get much rest before. I've been so entangled in these two days that I've lost a lot of brain cells. In addition, my physical fitness is relatively poor...

Chen Qing felt that he was just one step away from becoming an immortal.

Shaking his head, he picked up the wine glass and asked, "How's the investigation going?"

Faced with this problem, Lu Mingcheng suddenly became serious.

He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Chen Qing: "It's all here."

"I spent some money and searched for each one on this list, and the final result was..."

Looking at Chen Qing, Lu Mingcheng had a serious expression: "Starting from the top twenty people, all of them are no longer in the country."

Oh open?

After hearing Lu Mingcheng's words, Chen Qing raised his eyebrows slightly.

He spread out the piece of paper and read down bit by bit: "Are they all outside the country? Can you confirm their current situation?"

Lu Mingcheng nodded, his expression ugly: "Look at the back."

When Chen Qing heard this, he turned the information upside down.

Then his pupils shrank slightly.

"...all dead?"

He stared at this piece of information: "Did all the more than 20 people on this page die abroad?"

Lu Mingcheng didn't speak, but his meaning was obvious.

This is what scares Lu Mingcheng.

Send 20 people abroad and then kill them without anyone noticing. If Lu Mingcheng hadn't spent a lot of money to investigate, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to find out...

Chen Qing felt that as long as there were no big problems in his mind, he should be able to figure out the unusual secrets hidden in it.

"And it can deliver the package to your doorstep without anyone noticing, and may continue to deliver it to people..."

Shaking the beer can, Chen Qing said, "The power behind this is probably terrifying."

Lu Mingcheng also said with a cross-face: "That's it."

He was also frightened by what was hidden in this information: "This is too scary! People have died, and there are still so many dead. Even I may be one of them..."

Pointing to the dark circles under his eyes, Lu Mingcheng vomited his bitterness to Chen Qingda: "I haven't slept well in the past two days. I was checking information and was scared. I really vomited!"

No wonder he was acting so panicked.

It's true that Lu Mingcheng has been too anxious these past two days and is almost a little nervous.

In contrast, when he looked at Chen Qing, who remained calm throughout almost the whole process, he wondered whether this guy lacked the emotion of "fear".

How can you remain so calm when encountering such strange things? !

Of course, Chen Qing could not know what Lu Mingcheng was thinking in his mind at the moment.

He just rubbed his chin, thoughtfully: "Obviously this is an incident involving extraordinary things. After all, only I can see the black lotus mark, but Lao Lu can't."

As for why he could see it, Chen Qing felt that the reason was probably easy to guess.

It is simply because he has recently come into contact with forbidden objects such as ancient mirrors and gold coins, or he has too many connections with other extraordinary things, so he has a certain understanding of this aspect.

Therefore, he has an advantage over others.That is because he preconceived the idea that this was an extraordinary event and was mentally prepared for possible subsequent situations.

The key to the problem now is how he can turn this hidden advantage into an advantage...

Tapping his fingers lightly on the table, Chen Qing suddenly said: "You said before that Xu Xiangyang was related to the end of the world before disappearing. Do you still remember that incident?"

Lu Mingcheng was slightly startled when he heard this.

He quickly came to his senses: "That matter? I don't know much. I basically told you that day."

This answer made Chen Qing a little disappointed.

But this is normal.

After all, Xu Xiangyang was only part of Lu Mingcheng's talking points. Before this, he didn't care about that scumbag, and he would definitely not take it to heart.

So now, the only thing that can be used as a clue is...

The name on the postcard followed.

Thinking back to the postcards he had seen before, Chen Qing folded his hands: "There is a stupid way, that is, we look for them one by one. But this may take a lot of time and is very difficult. Before we find the clues, it will be your turn." .”

Hearing this, Lu Mingcheng shuddered: "...Then it's best not to do it."

Nodding, Chen Qing continued: "That's the second way."

He pointed his finger on the table: "Since the other party can deliver the package to you, it means that they are, or have been monitoring you before. Unless the package can run by itself, if that is the case, then we are really helpless. Be able to take the first path.”

“But, if it’s the former, that means we have plenty of room for maneuver.”

Hearing this, Lu Mingcheng swallowed his saliva.

He looked at Chen Qing and said tremblingly: "What... leeway?"

Chen Qing, on the other hand, was expressionless.

He slowly said: "Since there are people watching, let them see more."

"Based on what we know so far, the names that appear on the postcard are in chronological order, and the names of the people who went abroad before were all in the first twenty names, so there is a high probability that they will be in chronological order when they die. I don't know the order. They have no meaning, but it's obvious that they just do it. And there must be a reason for doing it."

"In that case, let's just let the last one advance and interrupt their order. They will have to show up by then, unless this order is meaningless."

Hearing these words, Lu Mingcheng was stunned for a moment.

He quickly reacted: "Wait, you want it?!"

Chen Qing smiled for the first time.

"Yes," he said, "I want to try some small methods at home."

"In short, we try to disrupt the order of this list as much as possible. After all, my name appears last, and the order is obviously the last one. And if the order is earlier, then their arrangement will be disrupted, and they will have to appear next..."

Putting down the beer can, Chen Qing said decisively: "By then, it will be clear what we need to deal with, and we will be able to make more preparations!"

Lu Mingcheng still hesitated: "But it's too dangerous..."

Chen Qing smiled: "I don't think there is anything more dangerous than now."

After saying something that Lu Mingcheng didn't understand, he continued: "And since they send people abroad to kill them, it means they dare not take action at home, so my actions are still guaranteed."

"Well, if it weren't for my lack of connections, I would have tried chatting with a prisoner about to be shot about Xu Xiangyang. But it's a pity, we are a society governed by the rule of law..."

Shaking his head with some regret, Chen Qing turned his head and looked at Lu Mingcheng who was frightened by his words. He couldn't help but laugh: "What are you looking at? I was joking."

"You don't have to worry so much."

Shaking the beer can, Chen Qing said with a smile: "If I hadn't taken some precautions, I certainly wouldn't have put myself in a dangerous situation."
