Night’s Nomenclature
chapter-95-30041322

On the Laojun Mountain winding road, Zheng Yuandong was walking along the road slowly in a black Zhongshan suit.

The bloody footprints on the ground guided him to replay the scenes of last night.

There were 9 subsonic bullet casings scattered on the road and a bullet hole in the leader's ears. These all proved that both sides were in an intense shootout.

Kun Lun also collected two bloody bullet heads, and from the blood samples collected, they were from two different people.

This meant that the masked man who killed the criminal was also injured.

Zheng Yuandong stood where Qing Chen threw the rock and said to Lu Yuan, "He's wounded along the road and found that he couldn't catch up to the criminal, so he cross the forest and threw the giant rock from here."

Lu Yuan frowned, "Then the rock hit the SUV? This accuracy is unbelievable! How can the path be predicted over 10 meters of drop?"

"Yeah, compared to the ability to accurately penetrate the spleen, this was the killer's most powerful skill: calculation." Zheng Yuandong said, "Are the DNA lab results out yet?"

Lu Yuan shook his head, "The result is out, but there is no DNA sample from the same person in the DNA library."

"Check the similar ones, maybe you can find his relatives," Zheng Yuandong said.

"Yes," Lu Yuan nodded: "This might take a bit longer, but the results should be available in three days at most."

Zheng Yuandong said, "If you find the person to be polite, Kun Lun needs this kind of person now, someone who can take on such challenges by himself."

…

Qing Chen stayed on Laojun Mountain a little longer and wasn't in a rush to return to the city.

He couldn't walk a long distance with these injuries on his feet, and Jiang Xue also wanted him to relax a little longer in this peaceful environment after the traumatizing event.

As for tutoring lessons, Jiang Xue felt like it wasn't as important anymore after what happened that night.

They should at least wait until Qing Chen had somewhat recovered.

Jiang Xue reapplied some medication for Qing Chen, "If I knew you were going get hurt like this, I would've bought some medicine from the Inner World. The medicine from there heals much better than the ones from the Outer World."

"It's okay, Aunt Jiang Xue," Qing Chen smiled, "it doesn't hurt much now."

"By the way," Jiang Xue suddenly got worried: "You left so many bloody footprints on the scene. Someone must be able to find you through DNA comparison. Although your DNA has not been recorded, your father has been detained…”

Now, blood samples would be collected when detained.

However, Qing Chen shook his head: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Jiang Xue glanced at Qing Chen and felt a little surprised. She realized that there seemed to be secrets that she wasn't aware of, but the young man in front of her didn't want to say more.

In the whole incident, two key factors could have revealed Qing Chen's identity. One was Nan Gengchen, and the other was the blood sample.

For Nan Gengchen, Qing Chen trusted that his friend wouldn't be an idiot. At least Nan Gengchen would mix in some misleading information for Kun Lun.

As for the next, Kun Lun wouldn't be able to find any samples from him, because this involved some old events.

Or else, Qing Chen wouldn't have dared to chase after people barefooted.

Qing Chen said, "Aunt Jiang Xue, I want to be alone for a while. I have something to deal with."

"Sure, I'll go take a walk with Xiao Yun. Call me if you need anything. We won't be too far away." Jiang Xue said.

After Li Tongyun and Jiang Xue left the room, Qing Chen took out his phone and communication device.

He first unlocked the communication device and it was flooded with Liu Dezhu's messages:

"Boss, you're so awesome! You actually killed all the criminals!"

"Boss, thank you for alerting me in time, thank you and your men for saving me. I, Liu Dezhu, will do anything for you!"

"Boss, after tonight, I'll be loyal to you and only you. I'll do what others don't dare to do. As long as you need me to, I'll be your man even in the no man's land!"

"Boss, why aren't you responding?"

"Right, boss, we're back in Luo City. My classmates and I will visit Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen together. I'll make sure to get the money from them for you!"

Qing Chen looked at the time. Nine in the morning.

Countdown to 39:00:00.

It has only been nine hours since the last return.

He hadn't had much time to rest before and after the transmigration, he didn't even have time to look at the countdown.

He still has more than a day left. With the additional two or seven days during transmigration, his injuries should recover by then.

Qing Chen replied to Liu Dezhu's message, "Just woke up, wait until I find out what happened from my subordinates."

Liu Dezhu sat up straight in awe from the message. The boss was sure confident, he was sleeping when all that was happening. He suddenly felt a great contrast between himself and the boss…

From this, Liu Dezhu found a couple of details:

First, Boss didn't know that he was coming to Laojun Mountain and didn't know he came earlier than the original plan, because Boss seemed to be very serious when giving him orders back in the Inner World.

So, he could rule out that Boss was close to him. Boss was either an upperclassman or someone related to the school.

Second, could the masked killer last night be the boss himself?

Starting with personality, the killer had a fairly different personality from the boss. His impression of the boss has always been that of a strategist with a sinister character.

Yes, very sinister.

Last night, however, that killer was very bloody and straightforward when trying to avenge the Kun Lun members.

This seemed a bit different from his boss.

All in all, Liu Dezhu temporarily determined that the masked killer last night wasn't the boss himself, though he couldn't be sure yet.

If that was true, then the boss already got subordinates in the Outer World! This was terrifyingly fast.

…

At this moment, Qing Chen wasn't in a rush to reply to Liu Dezhu but was pretending to be understanding the situation and ignored Liu Dezhu for a while.

When he opened his phone, he found that the class group chat had already exploded.

Many classmates were saying that Liu Dezhu and his mysterious companions saved everyone.

Although Liu Dezhu himself did not admit it, no one believed his denial.

The class representative Yu Junyi recalled, "At that time when the criminals hadn't even appeared, Liu Dezhu already noticed them from the Inner World and told everyone to scatter, but we didn't believe him at that time. I thought he must be crazy. Well, now thinking about it, I feel ashamed of myself."

A girl in the class said excitedly, "The leader of the criminals pointed a gun at his head and asked where his companion was. Liu Dezhu was very determined to not disclose any information to the criminals even under the pressure."

In fact, she didn't know that Liu Dezhu really didn't know where his mysterious boss and the mysterious subordinate were at that time either. He had nothing to say!

Later, Bai Waner talked about what happened in the group chat, which pushed the discussion to a climax: the criminals originally planned to take the four of them away in the chaos, but Liu Dezhu's men arrived in time.

The masked man first secretly killed the gangster who escorted him and then killed the criminal who was escorting Liu Dezhu.

She has been with Hu Xiaoniu and Zhang Tianzhen during that time.

Bai Waner said that Hu Xiaoniu woke up in the middle of the night and kept mentioning that he would like to thank Liu Dezhu and his men.

The person not only saved them but also avenged the two Kun Lun members.

Suddenly, when she mentioned the two Kun Lun members who died, the group chat fell silent.

Even though all of them were saved, now was not the time to express joy.

Qing Chen suddenly thought that Hu Xiaoniu had a very good temperament.

Now that Liu Dezhu was becoming famous. Could he use Liu Dezhu to gather a group of reliable time travelers?

Whether it was doing business with them or helping each other, perhaps more people would be useful.

He closed WeChat and opened another app.

In the early hours of last night, when the fire started to spread, the incident on Laojun Mountain had spread all over the country.

Weibo, TikTok, and Bilibili1Chinese version of Youtube were full of videos and news of the fire in Laojun Mountain.

But no one mentioned the details of what happened during the fire. The news was mainly about the aftermath.

The only information was from a user with the ID of "Kun Lun – Lu Yuan" stating that all the arsonists were found dead, ending the series of time traveler kidnapping incidents.

Until now, people finally understood that the arsonists were the culprits of the time traveler kidnappings that had been all over the news.

There was no mention of how the criminals were killed nor of the masked man. That was mainly because Qing Chen hid his identity too well, and the few insiders who know about him wouldn't expose him on the Internet.

These people include Nan Gengchen, the mysterious girls in the parking lot, Li Tongyun, Jiang Xue…

Today was the first day of the National Day holiday break, and after the incident, many people who planned on coming refunded their tickets.

Many on the mountain didn't even watch the sunrise the next day and left the mountain by bus.

It is said that the first bus in the morning was packed, and the transportation system of the tourist attraction was overwhelmed.

Qing Chen reviewed what happened last night through his memory and confirmed that no one expect fro Li Tongyun and Jiang Xue would know his real identity.

He suddenly remembered something very important: gold bars.

Last night, during the chaos, Hu Xiaoniu once said something very important.

Others may forget or ignore the intense situation at that time.

But Qing Chen wouldn't.

"Gold bars" were important keywords in his mind.
