My ex-girlfriend thought I was poor, so I made 100 million by betting on stones.

Chapter 2023 Back to the Investigation Bureau



Chapter 2023 Back to the Investigation Bureau

Yang Feng lay in the hospital bed.

He ignored the external changes and slept until noon the next day.

noon.

There was no sun in the sky.

It's starting to freeze outside.

Many animals even remain lifelike when frozen because the temperature drops so quickly.

The central city within the barrier was exceptionally warm.

Yang Feng had already guessed this, so it wasn't surprising.

At this moment, the new nurse had already opened the window for him.

The air in the room felt completely refreshed.

"Mr. Yang, you're awake."

The young nurse leaned closer and asked, "Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat, or is there anything else you need?"

"Thank you, a bowl of porridge will do."

"Oh? You're being too frugal. The cafeteria staff are still here. How about I ask them to prepare some more delicious food for you? Now is the time when you need to replenish your nutrition the most."

The nurse was very enthusiastic.

Yang Feng looked at her, his face beaming with a smile.

"Thank you, one bowl of porridge will be enough for me."

Yang Feng had no appetite.

The nurse had no choice but to say, "Alright then, I'll go tell the people in the cafeteria right away."

As she spoke, she walked outside, seemingly to greet the people in the hallway.

Yang Feng watched her retreating figure, his expression slightly complicated.

Compared to Zhao Feifei, this nurse's personality is completely different.

However, Yang Feng didn't think much of it. He just felt a bit better and wanted to get up.

When the nurse returned and saw him, she quickly helped him up, saying, "You're still not fully recovered, so please be careful."

"Thank you."

As Yang Feng spoke, he looked at her and said, "Could you help me to the rooftop?"

"You want to see the scenery? Shall I take you up in your wheelchair?"

"No need, I want to take a walk."

"Well... I'll have to send someone over with me."

The young nurse was afraid she couldn't lift Yang Feng by herself.

They summoned a member of the Shanhe group.

The two people helped Yang Feng up to the rooftop.

The rooftop has been cleaned very thoroughly today, and even the moss in the corners has been washed several times.

The nurse even said to Yang Feng, "Mr. Yang, they knew you would come to the rooftop to rest, so they had the whole rooftop cleaned up overnight. I'll bring you a chair so you can sit here and enjoy the view."

She looked at Yang Feng with a hint of smugness and envy in her eyes.

Yang Feng looked at her and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Yu Mengtian."

The nurse answered immediately.

Yang Feng nodded and said, "Perhaps you're quite lucky here?"

"Of course, the mountains and rivers have changed the weather here, and many people outside have died. I even heard a phone call earlier. It's very safe here now."

Yu Mengtian felt somewhat fortunate.

Yang Feng didn't criticize her, after all, this girl's thoughts were a very normal one.

He remained silent, gazing at the scene outside the barrier in the distance.

This rooftop is very high, offering a very distant view.

In the distance, the snow and ice stretched to the horizon, and beyond that, nothing could be seen at all, only a hazy expanse.

"The outside temperature must have already dropped to below ten degrees below zero, right?"

Yang Feng asked.

Yu Mengtian nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that in some places it's already below minus twenty degrees Celsius."

"Many people must have died."

"Hmm...a lot of people will probably die."

Yu Mengtian answered quickly.

Yang Feng didn't speak; he was just thinking about other things.

Chu Village should be settled by now, and after settling down...

Yang Feng guessed it; Murong Wan should have already come out by now.

In fact, Yang Feng's prediction was correct.

Murong Wan is now outside.

Jiangcheng.

In this city that used to have almost no winter, snowflakes are falling at this time of year.

Fortunately, this area doesn't seem to have been affected by the commotion yet.

Compared to the corpses she had seen buried in the snow and ice along her journey, the cleanliness of the streets here made her feel somewhat uneasy.

Murong Wan looked around, and finally returned to Yang Feng's house first.

Doorstep.

Under the ice, the wild grasses were frozen inside by ice crystals, making them look lush and green.

These grasses aren't particularly tall, but they still stand out.

Go inside.

The inside was already quite dusty.

The once bustling home is now utterly empty.

The cold environment made even the usually calm Murong Wan feel a little sentimental.

She hadn't expected that day to come so soon.

After looking around, Murong Wan went to the backyard and dug something out.

This is a bronze tripod.

I collected them myself and gave them to Yang Feng, but some fragments are still missing.

However, it has now been fully repaired.

Yang Feng buried it here, only telling Murong Wan the story.

Murong Wan took the bronze cauldron out of the frozen soil, washed it clean, wrapped it in a cloth, and then headed towards the Investigation Bureau.

The once grand and bustling Investigation Bureau.

There are still many people around, but the ease and confidence of the past are gone.

In front of the steps at the entrance of the building.

Murong Wan stopped in her tracks.

She used to work here and has many acquaintances here.

However, there are very few familiar faces here now.

A significant portion of them have already left, or even sacrificed their lives.

Only one familiar figure recognized her and said, "Murong, you're back!"

The tone was one of surprise.

Murong Wan looked over and said, "Director Wang."

"Hey, you guys are finally back! Why are you alone? Where are Yang Feng and the others?"

Wang Zhiwen asked curiously.

In his eyes, Murong Wan must have resolved the issue with Yang Feng, which is why she returned to deal with the Investigation Bureau matter.

Murong Wan shook her head and said, "He has other things to do. Is Director Jiang here?"

"They're having a meeting upstairs."

"Okay, I'll go find him."

Murong Wan didn't say much.

She walked upstairs.

At this moment, they encountered some more people upstairs.

After greeting them, she arrived at Jiang Guoping's office and found that a long line had already formed.

Inside the office.

Murong Wan opened the door and found several people inside discussing something.

Some of the members were from reclusive families, and they had already been recruited.

Murong Wan's sudden appearance elicited the same surprise from everyone present.

Jiang Guoping also said, "Murong, you're back."

"Director Jiang, what's the situation outside?"

Murong Wan didn't waste any more words.

Her direct question made Jiang Guoping sigh, and he said, "I'm discussing it with these people right now."

Among these people, one of them was Qin Tianming, the head of the Qin family.

Clearly, the Qin family is fully cooperating with the investigation bureau's operation, which is why they came to attend this meeting.

"Murong, has Yang Feng returned?"

Qin Tianming couldn't help but ask.

Murong Wan shook her head and said, "He has other things to do."

"That's right."

Qin Tianming was somewhat disappointed.
