I'm the mayor of a simulated ghost city

The lights of the police cars illuminated the entire water plant, and the sirens panicked the two different groups of criminals.

When Lu Yao saw Shen Yucheng, he was chasing Wang Yueqin around the factory with a big axe. She said that she was definitely not playing dumb before, but she had to find the right opportunity, after all, this was not a game.

The red and blue lights shone on Lu Yao's face. In front of her was Wang Yueqin, who could no longer run. The moment she saw the police, she felt like she saw a savior.

The police swung their flashlights at her, and Wang Yueqin sat down on the ground, sweating all over.

The light reflected Lu Yao's shadow. She carried the axe on her shoulder and waved to the shocked Shen Yucheng, saying enthusiastically: "Officer Shen! You are here! Come on, I will help you catch a criminal!"

Shen Yucheng pursed his lips: "......"

A moment later, with the quick action of Shen Yucheng and others, Tu Sheng and his gang and Xiong Jianghe were immediately arrested, and Lu Yao did not hesitate to hand over her mobile phone which contained evidence of the crimes of these people.

Well! She has two mobile phones, one was handed in, and the other one was still hidden in her bag even though the live broadcast was stopped. We are enthusiastic citizens, not honest citizens...

Luck often comes to those who are prepared.

At this moment, the system's voice sounded in my mind again: [Beep! Congratulations, Mayor, our city's water plant has been unlocked. Please quickly choose a place on the land to build the water plant and get our city running! ]

Who gave you the chance to act cute here? Wasn't this fickle thing quite fierce before?

When Lu Yao heard the system voice, she made a 180-degree turn. If she could hit it, she really wanted to give it an axe.

Just as he was thinking about it, the axe in Lu Yao's hand was carefully taken away by the police.

Oh, never mind, as long as I can save my life, I won’t worry about it for now.

Lu Yao turned around and prepared to go to the police car to ask for a cup of wolfberry water. The intense exercise that night had used up all the remaining fluids in her body. At her age, she still had to pay attention to health preservation. Now that the incident was over...

Before Lu Yao could finish thinking about the two words in his mind, the system reminded him again sincerely: [There are still two hours and twenty-five minutes left before the water plant construction deadline. Player Lu Yao, don’t forget that you have to build the water supply system before six o’clock, otherwise your citizens will die, and you will...]

"Get out!" Lu Yao was so angry that his liver hurt.

However, just as Lu Yao got the wolfberry water and drank half a sip, Shen Yucheng, who had read all the evidence Lu Yao provided, came over and said sincerely: "Student Lu, although we have substantial evidence now, the chain of evidence is not yet complete. You are both a victim and a whistleblower. Please come back to the police station with us and make a statement."

Nani?

The wolfberries that Lu Yao drank got stuck in his throat. Wasn’t that the end of him?

So, Lu Yao tried hurriedly: "Do we have to take the statement so late? I have something else to do, can we do it tomorrow?" Four or five hours passed when the statement was taken, and she began to stiffen, and she really couldn't speak.

Shen Yucheng naturally couldn't interpret Lu Yao's inner thoughts. He just looked at the scenery in the middle of the night and asked: "Do you have anything else to do so late at night?"

"It's a life-threatening matter." Lu Yao was not joking and was very serious.

Seeing this, Shen Yucheng realized that Lu Yao's situation was indeed rather special.

Just when he was in trouble, another police officer, who seemed to be of similar rank to Shen Yucheng, but had a dark mouth and a dark face, was not good-looking at all, and had a very unpleasant voice, came over.

He spoke first, without further ado, "No! You have to come with us. After all, you just took action, and it is possible that you are gangsters robbing gangsters, and you want to kill people to silence them. So until the case is thoroughly investigated, you have to stay in the police station!"

Can I...can I give you an axe?

Lu Yao's struggle was in vain. Although she could rush forward without thinking twice when facing a cruel murderer, she had to be a cooperative and law-abiding citizen when facing the righteous police.

Looking at the gun on the policeman's waist, Lu Yao followed him into the police car, but with his hands behind his back, he blindly sent a text message to the tall, rich and handsome man's phone.

【You have a new short message. 】

The tall, rich and handsome man who was still waiting in Lu Yao's small rental house was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone. He shook his head. He had been staying up for two days in a row, and even as a young man, his body could not take it anymore. His brain was a little slow at this time.

But the moment he saw that the sender was "Miss Lu", the tall, rich and handsome man woke up completely.

He hurriedly opened the text message and saw: [Gu Mingxiao! No matter what method you use, get me out of the West District Police Station before 5:30!]

Gu Mingxiao was scolded. Lu Yao rarely called him by his full name. Once he did, it meant that Lu Yao was going to beat him up, or he really had a serious problem.

Gu Mingxiao had been watching Lu Yao's live broadcast. Although he couldn't tell whether Lu Yao was playing games or had really gone to the water plant, what Lu Yao said was like an imperial decree, and no matter how worried he was, he had to keep an eye on Lu Yao's computer.

Then, during the last of several black screen incidents during Lu Yao’s live broadcast, he heard the sirens and breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly Lu Yao sent him another message that he absolutely could not ignore.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingxiao did not hesitate and immediately opened the address book on his phone and made a call...

Arriving at the West District Police Station and sitting in the interrogation room, Lu Yao kept an eye on the time while answering the police's questions.

Although the black-faced policeman suspected Lu Yao, Lu Yao was not the criminal after all, so he agreed to let Shen Yucheng pour Lu Yao a glass of water and talk slowly.

Hei Lian and Shen Yucheng were a team, sitting on opposite seats, just like the Black and White Impermanence trying a prisoner.

"Lu Yao, tell me. Why did you go to the water plant so late at night?"

As expected, there would be such a question. Lu Yao leaned back in the chair, feeling a little tired. She hadn't slept for two days, but she had to keep her mind clear and answered fluently: "Oh, I have a good friend named Qin Yunlan, a graduate student in the Department of Aquatic Biology. She is the victim you found this time. She has been missing for several days. I was very worried about her, so I went to look for her."

"Then why do you carry a baton with you?"

"I didn't know it was a weapon, I just bought it because it looked nice. Who knew it could actually hit someone when I swung it out? The situation was critical at the time, and I was so happy when I took it out. It was such a surprise that I probably won't be able to sleep tonight."

"I just heard from Lao Shen that you reported the case yesterday morning, saying that you were controlled by the system. Have you found a solution now? Why did you think of going to the water plant to find out the truth and find the murderer when your life was threatened?"

Hearing this, Lu Yao turned his gaze from the dark-faced man to Shen Yucheng, with an unserious look of an old acquaintance: "Hey, Officer Shen, how can you tell others about our little secret?"

Shen Yucheng blushed when he heard this, and lowered his head. He was a policeman, and he had to share any clues and intelligence with his colleagues. Moreover, seeing that Lu Yao was in a hurry to leave, he wanted to tell her about her crisis and help her get rid of suspicion as soon as possible.
