Chapter 169 Special Affairs Bureau
The head of the Special Affairs Bureau is a slightly overweight middle-aged man.
Wearing black-framed glasses, he sports a perpetually cheerful demeanor. His surname is Wu, named Wu Xing.
Nicknamed Wu Lao San, no one knows the origin of this nickname, but some of the old-timers in the bureau privately call him that.
Ever since the aurora phenomenon that illuminated half the sky happened in Xiajing a few days ago, his already sparse hair had thinned even more.
Afterwards, they quickly arrived at the scene to investigate. They found the magnetic field there in chaos, all electronic devices destroyed, and Xu Laisheng’s mansion split in half; Xu Laisheng himself had gone missing.
This immediately reminded them of the magnetic storm incident at Bin Hai’s Hai Chao District.
But one took place in Bin Hai, the other in Xiajing, over two thousand five hundred kilometers apart. If it were a natural random phenomenon, the one in Bin Hai might have been excusable, but Xiajing’s traces of destruction were clearly man-made.
Thus, they quickly linked the two incidents together.
Based on the sequence of events, they began to investigate individuals who had recently traveled from Bin Hai to Xiajing.
They even ruled out the possibility of high-speed rail and bus travel into the capital, as the distance was too great. To travel from Bin Hai to Xiajing, flying was the most feasible method.
Thus, the scope of their investigation gradually narrowed.
