Catastrophe Containment Facility-Chapter 36 Wastewater Treatment Plant

36: Chapter 36 Wastewater Treatment Plant

36 -36 Wastewater Treatment Plant

Regarding how to interrogate Li Shuyue, Wen Wen had a plan in mind.

He requested a completely sealed cell and demanded that no one should enter for the next half hour.

Gu Panxi’s perception ability was poor; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been caught off guard when Wen Wen disrupted her plans.

As long as she didn’t burst in, she wouldn’t know what Wen Wen intended to do.

After locking the door, Wen Wen grabbed Li Shuyue by the collar and pinned him against the wall.

“Hehe, what do you want to do, torture me brutally?

Actually, there’s no need for that.

I’ll cooperate with whatever you ask, as long as you…

Ah!”

Wen Wen pulled out a knife and stabbed through Li Shuyue’s left hand, pinning it to the wall.

He followed the same method, stabbing four or five more times, completely immobilizing him against the wall.

“Hmm, this should secure things.

My combat abilities might drop in a bit, so I need to make sure you can’t fight back,” Wen Wen said in a tone akin to coaxing a child.

He didn’t trust any of Li Shuyue’s words, so he intended to hypnotize him and then extract crucial information.

However, during hypnosis, he couldn’t use his Vampire Constitution, so first, he needed to eliminate Li Shuyue’s ability to fight.

Following that, Wen Wen turned off his Vampire Constitution, installed the vampire’s Hypnotic Ability onto one of his fingers, and then switched to a Ghostly Physique.

Wen Wen’s body disappeared in front of Li Shuyue, leaving a black patterned pair of underwear to drift down…

Half an hour later, Wen Wen, now dressed, walked out of the cell.

Gu Panxi peeked in and saw Li Shuyue’s neck had been severed.

She waved her fist at Wen Wen and said, “You killed him directly?

If there’s no useful information, you know the consequences.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll provide you with a very satisfactory answer.”

Having revealed his true abilities in front of Li Shuyue, Wen Wen couldn’t rely on the virus-infected Li Shuyue to keep his secrets.

Therefore, after obtaining the information he needed, he helped Li Shuyue end his suffering from the virus.

“The police files say he didn’t go to work the day before committing the crimes, and he doesn’t remember anything from that time.

So, the issue definitely lies with that day,” Wen Wen explained.

“Everyone knows that,” Gu Panxi said with a frown.

Wen Wen brought over a map of the old town area and spread it out in front of Gu Panxi.

“This is where he was last seen before the incident, and this is where he appeared after regaining his memory.

Between these two places, there’s a sewage treatment plant.”

“You’re suggesting that the incident took place somewhere between these two spots, which makes sense.

But it’s not just the sewage treatment plant here…” Gu Panxi observed after looking at the map.

“I’ve actually been tracking another monster lately, with a very wide activity range, so broad that it’s untraceable.

The overlap between this monster’s range and this location is precisely this sewage treatment plant!”

“You mean the virus host and the monster you’re chasing might be collaborating?

That seems a bit far-fetched,” Gu Panxi asked with a frown.

“I’m not sure if they have teamed up, but I don’t believe in coincidences.

At least this place is worth exploring, since we have no other leads, right?”

Wen Wen also had another piece of information he hadn’t mentioned: under the influence of vampire hypnosis, Li Shuyue had failed to reveal where the virus host’s lair was.

However, near the sewage treatment plant was a gift shop.

Yesterday morning, on his way to work, Li Shuyue had deliberately detoured to that shop to buy a birthday present for his son!

“We…

do you want me to come with you?” Gu Panxi was reluctant to go to the sewage treatment plant; she detested dirty places.

“Of course, I’m not strong enough, what if I tip them off and they run away?”

Wen Wen said as if it was a matter of course.

He certainly wouldn’t venture deep into the den on his own.

By bringing this violent woman along, at least he could have her hold off the enemies if they needed to run…

…

A waning moon rose into the night sky, the biting wind blowing, with the chirping of crickets from the grass at the roadside being somewhat annoying.

Wen Wen squatted next to a phone booth, fiddling with a Five-stage Magic Cube in his hand, which was to hone his thinking skills.

He was waiting here for Gu Panxi to arrive; the two of them would explore the sewage treatment plant together.

There were actually traces of Scavenging Demons here as well, but on the surface, it looked no different from other places.

However, the overlap with the potential hiding spots of the lost host bodies had caught Wen Wen’s attention.

Even if the lost host bodies weren’t here, catching a Scavenging Demon here would still be quite worthwhile.

That afternoon, he had been to the store where Li Shuyue bought gifts, and had done some investigations nearby, finally confirming that there were indeed fishy things going on inside the sewage treatment plant.

After waiting a while, a roaring sound erupted, so loud that it drowned out the chirping of insects in the grass.

When the noise stopped, a large motorcycle stopped in front of Wen Wen, and Gu Panxi, dressed in a black tight leather outfit, took off her helmet and approached Wen Wen.

“You’re moving in that outfit?”

Wen Wen gave her a once over, his expression oddly scrutinizing as he spoke.

The black leather outfit was completely form-fitting, showcasing her stunning figure perfectly.

It was certainly eye-catching, but fighting in that outfit, are you sure you aren’t just delivering fan service to the opponent?

“What’s wrong with it?

Today we need to sneak into the drainage, and my outfit is completely waterproof.

Isn’t it perfectly suitable for this kind of job?” Gu Panxi said assertively.

Wen Wen did not want to respond; she must have some misunderstanding about sneaking into a place.

Only the women in certain films from Sakura District would wear such outfits to sneak in, and according to the plot, they would usually get caught…

As he observed, Wen Wen suddenly felt a warmth in his nose and quickly averted his gaze.

“This woman definitely has a fetish for strange outfits!” Wen Wen concluded once more.

At night, the machinery of the sewage treatment plant was still operating, but there were far fewer employees around, allowing Wen Wen and Gu Panxi to easily sneak inside.

They did not reveal their identities as Demon Hunters and conduct an exposed inspection, since such places were likely to have the opposing party’s spies.

It was best not to tip off the enemy before they had conclusive results.

After a brief search of the sewage treatment plant, the two shifted their focus elsewhere.

If this place was a Monster’s lair, then the Monster would not easily appear in areas crowded with people; they needed these workers to provide them with cover.

“Near the sewage treatment plant lies Furong River City’s most complex system of drains, so if there are Monsters, their best hiding spot would probably be right here.”

Opening the entrance to the sewer, Wen Wen said to Gu Panxi, then he took the lead into the filthy sewer, stepping onto the moist, sticky ground.

“There better be some clues here, or else I’ll dock your pay,” Gu Panxi said with a look of disdain as she jumped in.

Wen Wen’s lips trembled slightly; he wasn’t worried about the pay, but rather, the smell of the sewer was just too overwhelming.

His sense of smell being much more sensitive than that of ordinary people, he felt the stench much more intensely.
