Chapter 1028 -410: Really Don’t Know
Hearing Jiang Shixue’s words, Wang Tao smacked his forehead.
“My bad, I completely forgot about Little Xue’s ability!”
Jiang Shixue’s Awakening is [String Puppet].
[String Puppet: Night Vision, Mind Control]
This Awakening, when dealing with stronger enemies, acts as a control. Although the control period is very short, possibly only one second, within that second, it is essentially impossible to break free, making it a very strong form of control.
However, when facing weaker enemies, Jiang Shixue’s Awakening truly controls the opponent. They cannot resist at all, and they also won’t remember anything that happened while being controlled.
Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue had experienced many battles together. Usually, the enemies that Wang Tao needed Jiang Shixue to control were of a higher level than him.
When dealing with weaker enemies, Wang Tao never used [String Puppet] on them. After all, using it consumed Awakening Energy, and there was no need to waste it on something that could be solved with a few slashes.
That’s why Wang Tao had subconsciously forgotten about Jiang Shixue’s Awakening.
Now, after being reminded by Jiang Shixue, Wang Tao remembered this divine technique—Jiang Shixue could directly control Qiu Rong and the other woman, forcing them to speak the truth.
“Alright! Then you come with me to City Hall tomorrow, I want to see what exactly those two women are up to!”
Wang Tao stroked his chin and said.
“Sure~”
In theory, Wang Tao’s spiritual power also had a “control” effect, even though it was not as strong as Jiang Shixue’s. It could still be somewhat useful against ordinary people without any special abilities.
But unfortunately, Wang Tao couldn’t… unless he learned the Ability of Mind Control or figured it out on his own.
Figuring it out on his own was naturally quite difficult, and for those with weak spiritual power, if Wang Tao was not careful, they could end up being idiots at best, or dead at worst. So it was better to leave it to the professionals.
…
The next day, early morning.
“It’s still coming down…”
Looking outside at the relentless heavy snow, Lan Yulian sighed.
The snow had been falling for several days now, and it’s unknown how many people had suffered because of it. They could have gone out to provide disaster relief, but Yao Guodong, who had been personally in charge, had died, causing the subsequent efforts to become chaotic. Especially when many of the wired communications also started having problems, even if other people wanted to go out and help, they didn’t know where to go…
“Looking at this, Qu Shilin probably wasn’t wrong; this snow might last for a month…”
Wang Tao shook his head. Given the current situation, if it really continued for a month, this snow would indeed become a complete “natural disaster” for ordinary people.
Around noon, Wang Tao and Jiang Shixue drove together to City Hall.
“Feels like this car isn’t cutting it anymore…”

On the way to City Hall this time, their journey took much longer than the day before. Due to the heavy snow accumulation on the roads, they had to drive very cautiously, and the SUV, although fitted with snow chains, was clearly struggling.
“I wonder how they’ve modified our cars back at the institute…”
Wang Tao muttered, then entered City Hall with Jiang Shixue. As soon as he entered, he saw a figure jogging towards him.
“Mr. Wang!”
Jiang Hui greeted with a broad smile, as Wang Tao had informed him earlier.
“This is my sister, Jiang Shixue.”
“This is Jiang Hui, head of the investigation team.”
Wang Tao made the introductions.
“Ms. Jiang!”
“Hmm.”
Jiang Shixue nodded emotionlessly.
Since she had become half-human and half-zombie, her personality had become much colder. Apart from showing warmth to their own people, especially Wang Tao, Jiang Shixue was very indifferent toward everyone else.
Jiang Hui naturally didn’t mind and quickly said to Wang Tao:
“Mr. Wang, Ms. Jiang, please follow me.”
The day before, Qiu Rong and Li Xin had been placed in the upper floors of City Hall, but now, Jiang Hui led Wang Tao to the police station.
“I’ve detained them; they are in the cells underground…”
Jiang Hui explained softly.
“Hmm.”
Wang Tao nodded.
“Officer Jiang!”
At this moment, a policewoman ran up to them.
“There hasn’t been any trouble with the suspects, right?”
Jiang Hui asked.
The policewoman glanced at Wang Tao, seemingly hesitant about what to say.
“What’s there to hide? We’re all on the same side here!”
Jiang Hui immediately glared at the policewoman.
“Yes!” The policewoman quickly responded, then whispered, “These two suspects aren’t being very cooperative. They won’t answer anything we ask. Should we use—”
“Cough, cough!”
Jiang Hui quickly interrupted her.
The policewoman realized she had said too much and promptly shut her mouth.
Wang Tao looked interestedly towards Jiang Hui.
“You’ve been using torture?”
“Mr. Wang, don’t misunderstand, we haven’t tortured the suspects! After all, they’re the former mayor’s wife…”
Jiang Hui quickly shook his head, as such things, even if true, could not be admitted outright, at least not so bluntly. But he immediately explained softly:
“Just that…cough, I’ve kept them in solitary confinement and haven’t fed them up to now…”
There are many kinds of torture, and Jiang Hui naturally wouldn’t dare to use physical punishment. No matter what, she was the former mayor’s wife, and he couldn’t mess around. But using some scare tactics, like not feeding them, he thought that was acceptable. After all, special measures for special times were sometimes necessary to quickly catch a criminal.
