Chapter 1164: Chapter 974: Natural Gas Leak

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Channel 52 News. This afternoon, a malicious incident occurred in the villa district of The First Region, where an explosion took place at a villa, resulting in 6 deaths and 10 injuries. The cause of the explosion is still under investigation. According to the leader of the Anti-Terrorist Mobile Squad, this explosion is suspected to be related to a Psychic attack..."

As the sky grew dark, the entire First Region became lively due to this sudden event.

Armored floating cars occasionally swept across the night sky, adding a sense of tension to this city on high alert.

"I really didn’t expect him to be a senior executive of the United Military Industries."

Song Lan, sitting in the hotel lobby, watched the news from afar and sighed.

He changed into new clothes, wearing a knitted hat on his head and a light down jacket, all of which Lu Xiang had bought along the way. As for the original clothes, they had been disposed of en route.

The reason was that the villa district was saturated with surveillance cameras; the scene of them returning to the villa with the man had definitely been captured.

Before leaving, Lu Xiang had hacked into the villa district’s security system to tamper with the surveillance footage. The only exception was "Emperor," who was too conspicuous, forcing them to split up and act separately.

Song Lan admitted that the situation seemed as if they had scammed the man and then committed murder to cover it up, even orchestrating an explosion just before fleeing. But the truth was that there was a sudden gas leak at the man’s house, leading to the explosion.

Truly.

This really was a gas explosion accident, not their doing.

The reason for their escape was very clear; the United Military Industries and the Anti-Terrorist Mobile Squad would never believe such a preposterous excuse. Murdering a company executive was a grave crime in any era, especially when the man was killed in a mansion that boasted the company’s latest security system. It was tantamount to a severe slap in the face of the United Military Industries.

Besides deepening the fear of Psychics, many people also began to question the company’s home security systems.

From the current situation, not only did the security system fail to prevent the man’s murder, but it also did not capture any information about the killer.

"This is the 12th attack this month."

The familiar face sitting opposite him with legs crossed was none other than Angle Saffire, who had not yet been "chosen by justice," and he was an excellent Agent of the Exceptional Incident Investigation Bureau, holding an electronic dossier.

Angle Saffire suddenly said such a sentence, removed his black leather gloves, and gave a friendly greeting to Song Lan, "Angle Saffire, a first-grade Agent of the Exceptional Incident Investigation Bureau, investigating recent Psychic attack incidents."

"Song Lan, just transferred over, still waiting for the paperwork."

Song Lan delivered the information that Lu Xiang had put together.

Of course, he knew Angle Saffire. To put it warmly, he had an inseparable destiny with the Saffron Family, having been good friends with his brother, Dorago Safron, back in the Seventeenth Region.

"Company man?"

"Yeah."

Song Lan was noncommittal; he knew that Angle was meticulous, had keen insight, and once he had a target, he would stick to it like glue, impossible to shake off. To avoid another gas leak tragedy, he had to keep his distance from Angle.

"This is my electronic business card, if you encounter any issues, feel free to contact me."

Song Lan nodded and took the business card, but his mind was occupied with another matter.

The sudden and mysterious death of their good friend "Bloody Executioner" had caught him off guard. At that time, Lu Xiang had managed to gain his initial trust, and upon learning of Lu Xiang’s predicament, the generous friend happily channeled a substantial sum of money into their account through his own.

But then, the kitchen exploded.

The poor maid got caught in the blast first, and the man didn’t have time to react, only letting out a horrified scream before being flung away by the blast wave and unluckily impaling his head on a shattered alloy brace—no use even for the genius Mechanic RT6, who could at most help him change his head.

The number of deaths mentioned in the news report included the maid and "Bloody Executioner," as well as the prisoners in the basement who were affected by the explosion.

Yet according to the correct timeline, the man should have lived safely through the three years of the Witch Hunt Movement, and only after Benjamin was backstabbed by the United Government and his experiments were exposed, did he become a scapegoat and was publicly executed in the square.

In Song Lan’s memory, "destiny" never struck proactively.

"Let’s go, the room is booked."

About fifteen minutes later, Lu Xiang came over from the front desk.

Angle Saffire looked up at her, smiled knowingly, and asked, "Office romance?"

Song Lan stood up, didn’t respond, and took it as consent.

This was the advantage of traveling with Lu Xiang.

No matter when or where, you could completely trust her with travel arrangements.

Identity, lodging, clothing, food, transport...

Well, to be precise, anything but "food."

Such was the strength of Doraemon A Xiang!

In those short fifteen minutes, Lu Xiang had completed many important tasks, such as laundering the money transferred by their good friend, ensuring that the company and the Anti-Terrorist Mobile Squad would never be able to track their location via the money trail; and then there were the new identities—from now on, he would be an excellent employee who had just been transferred to the headquarters in The First Region, with all his paperwork still in process.
