Chapter 721 Let’s Do It

As soon as these words were spoken, Yin Shisan's scalp tingled, and his poker face could no longer maintain its former indifference. He looked at Qin Shang in shock.

Qin Yuyan's reaction confirmed Qin Shang's guess.

Wow!

Then, Qin Shang suddenly understood something.

When I first came out of [Monastery No. 1], I didn't know that there was another shadow casting area in this dungeon.

Don't forget, [No. 1 Xiudao Yuan] actually has two shadow projection locations. One is the painting in the Xiang'an District Museum, and the other is the place where Chen Boxu made an appointment with Qin Shang yesterday afternoon...

The orphanage standing near the Xiang'an District Museum.

There is another shadow casting place of [No. 1 Xiudaoyuan].

This is what Chen Boxu said at the time.

Now that he calmed down and thought about it, Qin Shang felt as if someone had opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and his thoughts suddenly became clear.

Avicii's child died in that place. The place where Wu Shiqi threatened to go to pray in the copy was actually there. According to this logic, if that place was already an orphanage before Wu Shiqi's death, could it be that the so-called Wu Shiqi in the background board was a devout believer who prayed regularly?

Can you translate it? The translation is that Wu Shiqi is a kind volunteer who regularly takes care of the children adopted by the orphanage? After all, it is a contaminated instance, so it is not difficult to understand that some information on the background board is different from reality...

It has been nearly thirty years since the 1990s, but that place is still an orphanage.

Although it has a somewhat deserted feel, according to the current speed of urban planning, if this place had been abandoned for more than five years, it would have been reclaimed by the authorities long ago.

After all, these relief facilities such as social welfare institutions were originally official venues.

If there is no group in need of assistance, the authorities will certainly not sit idly by and watch resources go to waste and this place remain idle.

and so……

At the end of the plot in the copy, Wu Shiqi chose to commit suicide after her lover died of tetanus.

The orphans in that place suddenly had no one to take care of them, so someone must have taken over Wu Shiqi's job.

who is it?

The answer is already obvious.

The author of "Picture of Nun" is Dong Zhen.

...One night in the 70s, spies and traitors took over the monastery. If there were other secret passages in the monastery, could there have been any survivors at that time?

It's impossible that there is no survivor among the children?

No, given the brutality of the Sakurajima people, in that desperate situation, they would never retain any humanity. Killing every living thing in the monastery in order to protect themselves is the brutal style of the Sakurajima people.

but……

I met that old lady in the corridor...

she!

They were the refugees sent to the monastery the day after the entire monastery was occupied.

If you were not originally a native of the monastery...

Didn't that old lady accidentally discover that the orphans taken in by the entire monastery were not displaced refugees or post-war orphans at all, but the descendants of Sakurajima people and traitors?

So, was she the only one sent to a convent the day after she took over the old man's nest?

Also, the fact that the monastery was occupied by the Sakurajima people was not spread out.

The outside world is not aware that this place has actually become a stronghold of traitors and spies.

So, will other places continue to remain the same and transport orphans and refugees here?

There is an orphanage next to the monastery, and it just so happens that Avicii's child died in this orphanage, and there are many other children in this orphanage...

This... Could it be that Wu Shiqi realized one day in the 80s or 90s that the monastery had actually been occupied by Sakurajima people and traitors a long time ago, so she deliberately opened such an orphanage in order to intercept the orphans sent to the monastery?

No, not necessarily Wu Shiqi.

The age doesn't match.

In the 1990s, Wu Shiqi was a teenage girl. In the 1980s and even the 1970s, she was still a child, or maybe she wasn’t even born yet... Then, it could also be Wu Shiqi’s father who was a sailor.

Correct!

Qin Shang's eyes gleamed, it was Wu Shiqi's father who was a sailor.

Jiangcheng is also adjacent to several inland seas along the coast.

Transportation is very convenient.

Several surrounding cities that were once swept by war will most likely reach an agreement with the monastery to send those homeless post-war orphans to the monastery. As the ship operator, it is easiest for you to know the personnel list and come into contact with the children who are transported there!

Wu Shiqi's father probably knew about the monastery's secrets when he was young.

So he took advantage of his position as a sailor to intercept the orphans who were sent to him and raise them in the orphanage he built.

I felt something was wrong before. Wu Shiqi's father was at least active between the 1970s and 1990s.

Transportation was very underdeveloped during that period. Sailors were not considered wealthy, but they were a higher-income group among the lower-class working people. In addition, every region at that time had some big brothers with powerful connections.

Many ports have checkpoints run by small gangs involved in organized crime and crime, which extort money from refugees.

Due to staffing constraints, the authorities could only turn a blind eye to all of this during that period.

In other words, people without connections really can't do business like shipping goods.

Wu Shiqi's father is a well-known figure in Jiangcheng society. Regardless of whether he has money in his pocket, he is definitely a local gangster.

Only this kind of person could engage in shipping business in that period!

For such a person, his daughter's living environment is so shabby that it makes people feel suffocated. This is not scientific at all, unless he has other hobbies that cost a lot of money, such as adopting and helping street children and refugees...

As for why Wu Shiqi's father was able to intercept the orphans and take them away to his own orphanage after arriving in Jiangcheng even though he knew the orphans' movements.

Haha, human trafficking was commonplace in that era. As a local tyrant, Wu Shiqi's father had many ways to keep the children who should have been sent to the monastery and send them to orphanages to be raised.

"In that case, the orphanage was actually built by Wu Shiqi's father. The purpose was to provide shelter for the refugees and orphans who were later sent to the monastery. When Wu Shiqi grew up, he inherited his father's business. Yes, Wu Shiqi's job was not mentioned in the copy."

"…So there is another version of the painting of the nun, where a group of children surround a person. If the person in the center is not Wu Shiqi or Avicii, but a child, then it makes sense. Wu Shiqi kidnapped Avicii's child to avenge her father, so she placed the child in an orphanage..."

Thoughts raced through my mind again in a flash.

So, Dong Zhen inherited the orphanage after Wu Shiqi's death. His purpose in sending the painting to the Xiang'an District Museum was not to deliberately create supernatural events or stir up trouble.

...Thinking of this, Qin Shang slapped the back of his head.

I understand. I know the purpose of Dong Zhen sending the painting.

He hopes someone can discover this secret...

It’s not the ill-fated fate that entangled Wu Shiqi, Dong Zhen, and Avicii.

Rather, the secret of the monastery.

The true secret of the monastery!

A secret once held hostage by reactionaries and spies in the 70s.

That painting is the beginning. Through that beginning, people can investigate the population registration related to the monastery. If someone really investigates it carefully, they will definitely discover another thing hidden behind this supernatural event in the process of in-depth investigation.

That was what happened in the 70s, when a group of Sakurajima people and reactionaries took over the monastery.

Through the painting, we can trace back to Avicii, through Avicii, we can trace back to Wu Shiqi's father, and through Wu Shiqi's father, we can most likely find the existence of the orphanage. Through this orphanage, it is very easy to trace further and find that under the same historical background, the monastery was also taking in orphans, but afterwards there were not many records of new orphans admitted to the monastery.

On the contrary, the number of orphans admitted to the orphanage not far from the monastery is increasing.

Anyone who is interested in delving into this historical background will surely find something strange in it...

In fact, all these thoughts that exploded in my mind just now happened in an instant.

When Qin Shang's expression changed slightly as he understood the logic, it had actually been less than ten seconds since he told Qin Yuyan that the descendants of the three tycoons in Jincheng were descendants of the Sakurajima people.

However, the result was that the head of the three families mentioned by Master Yin suddenly had a strong murderous intent in his eyes, and he turned his graceful figure again to look at Qin Shang, his eyes were so cold as if he was looking at a dead person.

"You are really smart..."

Qin Shang's Adam's apple slid.

Otherwise, I can’t understand why the three tycoons in Jincheng cooperate so closely with the Sakurajima people.

If it was purely for profit, then the Zheng family shouldn't have helped the leader investigate Li Haowen's fall from the building...

Originally, Qin Shang only thought that the people who were hunting down the leader were from the Blood Robe Sect, the group of Sakurajima people who might be involved in the case of Li Haowen falling from the building. But now, after thinking about it carefully, he discovered something else.

The reason why the leader hid in the gambling world was because her own copy attribute item, 'Wanjie Bank', was [locked] and in a damaged state...

[Lock] is a skill of the hacker profession.

Hacker is the largest profession.

In other words, among those who were hunting down the leader, there were not only the Japanese from the second largest district like the Blood Robe Sect, but also players from the Divine Road from the first largest district.

Who is this person in Jiangcheng who is colluding with people from the first district and has close ties with the Sakurajima Blood Robe Sect?

Jincheng Zheng family.

Combined with Qin Yuyan's appearance, it was explained that the reason why Li Wenzhe and his group lost their memories of the bad guys in Jiangcheng was due to the skill [Shielding] of another professional hacker in the first district.

If Qin Shang can't connect these things together, he can pack up and die.

The leader was targeted after investigating Li Haowen. It seemed that it was a guilty organization in Sakurajima, but it was actually the Zheng family.

According to this line of thinking, if Zheng Ronghe and Liang Dang were to go to jail, it would be a real two-birds-with-one-stone deal for the Zheng family.

After all, Zheng Ronghe is the only person who knows about Li Haowen's case.

The top companies and super chaebols that are striving to reach the pinnacle of China are actually Japanese pirates from Sakurajima...

And they are descendants of the Japanese pirates in modern history.

This is absolutely intolerable to the authorities.

If this matter gets out, let alone the fact that the three tycoons of Jincheng are extremely wealthy, even if they are extremely powerful, ordinary people will not be able to accept such a thing as a star enterprise becoming the richest man in China.

Of course, if you think about it the other way around, you can understand why the Zheng family works closely with Sakurajima...

They are our own people.

It is even possible that the people who stayed in China and occupied the monastery overnight in the 70s were from the Blood-Cloaked Sect.

The meaning of the two versions of Dong Zhen's "Nun" has finally been deciphered.

The first version was a nun with a big-bellied shadow on the ground, standing outside a Buddhist temple. At that time, Qin Shang felt that the thing didn't look like a temple at all, but rather a coffin. This was what Dong Zhen wanted to express. The coffin and those Buddhist elements implied that both Avicii and the Buddhists had violated their beliefs.

It also hints at the souls suppressed near the monastery, those who died in the accident that night...

"When I read Romance of the Three Kingdoms before, I couldn't understand why Cao Cao lowered his status to recruit Guan Yu. Now I understand."

"Ugh!"

The next moment, a heavy sigh sounded from the woman's mouth;

"But there's nothing I can do. Since we're not the same kind of people, I can only get rid of you."

Whoosh whoosh—

As soon as the words came out, a group of people in night clothes rushed out from the dense forest.

Young Master Yin raised his eyebrows slightly, quietly took half a step forward, slightly blocking half of Qin Shang's body.

He was also extremely shocked by what his trusted henchman had just said. No matter how smart Master Yin was, he had never experienced [No. 1 Taoist Grudge] personally. There were many things that Yin Shisan in the real world did not know.

It was obvious that Qin Shang had completely stopped Qin Yuyan from trying to win him over...

However, the moment Master Yin saw Qin Yuyan appear, he knew that this matter would not end well tonight.

Surrounded by seven or eight figures, Master Yin remained calm and composed.

Qin Yuyan shrugged;

"Where is Master Yin? Any last words?"

Hearing this, Yin Shisan nodded slightly.

"Actually, I just have one question..."

"Is the number I just dialed yours?"

Hearing this, Qin Yuyan was stunned for a moment, then curled her red lips.

"It's mine. In the past, ordinary sheriffs in Jincheng, Jiangcheng, and Gangcheng would directly call the bad guys they thought of when they encountered a case involving a Divine Road player. But in fact, the calls were all to me..."

Sure enough, it was the three tycoons of Jincheng who were deliberately creating pollution sources!

The three tycoons were not so idle, and took the initiative to replace the memories of the sheriffs, making them subconsciously believe that they should contact the Unruly Organization as soon as they encountered something that violated natural science. As a result, the calls were made directly to the three people in charge.

...Haha, what's the matter? Will the three companies send people to deal with the source of pollution?

How is it possible? How could the three tycoons of Jincheng send people to handle the case as if it were a charity?

Their purpose is just to collect information and screen whether the so-called suspicious points in the place where a case occurred are enough to make this case a supernatural event...

Yin Shisan nodded slightly, his expression relaxed, and slowly unfolded his folding fan.

As expected, it is you who are deliberately creating the source of pollution!

"Do it!"
