What Cui Heyu found was a Moments1朋友圈 Péngyǒu quān: lit. Circle of friends; Moments, a product of Tencent, attached to WeChat, and function like a mix of twitter, instagram, and facebook, but more personal. that was quickly deleted, it was the only girl among the three supernatural awakeners who posted the Moments, the time was 13:13:13 yesterday afternoon. The content is very simple——
【Today is so unlucky, I was bitten by a dog while walking on the road, I have to get a rabies vaccine in a while.】
Less than five minutes after posting on Moments, she deleted the post.
This is very common information, however, the whereabouts records reported daily by the trackers are unusual, the records show that the girl did not go to the National Disease Surveillance Points2防疫站 Fángyì zhàn: National Disease Surveillance Points (DSPs). to get vaccinated, instead, she spent the afternoon lying in the dormitory and did not even eat dinner.
It’s normal for girls to skip dinner in order to lose weight, this meal did not attract the attention of the trackers, but there is a problem with the Moments that is quickly deleted.
Tan Yan said: “There is no record of being bitten by the observer in the tracking records, either it happened in a blind spot, or the observer had hallucinations.”
“There’s more,” Cui Heyu proudly said, “I found out that it wasn’t just her who was bitten, the other two had similar things, but they were also undetected by the trackers.”
He found two more photos from the roadside surveillance, one of which was a fire-type supernatural being knocked down by a passing electric vehicle, and his arm was bruised. The remaining supernatural being is also a college student who was injured while playing basketball.
“All had injuries and bloodshed, and they were all accidents.” Tan Yan analyzed, “And all occurred between 13:00-13:30 yesterday afternoon, this common phenomenon is worth noting.”
Liang Xian didn’t speak. He stared at his gloved right hand, repeating the movements of opening the palm, making a fist, and opening again, making a fist.
“When was they found missing?” Tan Yan asked.
“This morning at nine o’clock when the follow-up crew shift changes.” Minister Yu said, “The trackers are divided into three groups, eight hours per person, there was no problem when the shift changed at 1 o’clock yesterday morning, but no one was seen this morning.”
“Specially choose to do it late at night, in order not to be noticed, it is a premeditated action.” Tan Yan said, “The time of disappearance should be between 2 o’clock and 5 o’clock, this time is when people are in deep sleep, the most tired and most defenseless moment. Check the video surveillance in the area where the three people live during this period, even if there is no surveillance in the dormitory or community, there must be surveillance in the surrounding roads.”
“The dormitory doors of the two college students are monitored, I have checked, and due to the curfew, no one can enter or exit after 11 o’clock. But both of them live on the second floor, taking into account the physique of the supernatural being, the possibility of jumping out of the window is very large. The surveillance in front of the school gate still didn’t capture anyone, maybe they jumped over the wall. I also checked the surveillance at the nearby traffic light intersection, but I didn’t see anyone, they seemed to avoid the main road and take the small road. And if they take a taxi when they go out, we can’t take pictures.”
Minister Yu shook his head: “The tracker must have been subdued and taken away, it’s impossible to take a taxi with an unconscious person, is there any news of a lost car nearby?”
Cui Heyu shook his head again, apart from the fact that these six people were injured and bled at the same time, they didn’t leave any information at all, and the mobile phone was left in the residence.
The thread broke here.
When everyone was at a loss, Qiao Zhixue suddenly said: “Wounded and bleeding, it sounds a bit like the way the zombie virus spreads.”
After saying that, he also glanced at Liang Xian, who was looking at his own hand at that moment, looking at it very intently.
Liang Xian didn’t answer, Qiao Zhixue said again: “It seems that you have already guessed in this direction.”
“You mean…” Tu Zishi looked at Qiao Zhixue incredulously, can something like this still happen?
“Impossible.” Qiu Qizheng shook his head, “The transmission point will only take us back to the original world, we have tried to bring a stone back, but we can’t.”
“But the little deer followed,” Qiao Zhixue stroked the little deer’s head, “Since the ‘void’ can only be transmitted in one direction, we have never thought about reverse crossing, but if you think about it carefully, this kind of thing is actually possible. Who stipulates that the virus that causes the end of the zombie world belongs to the zombie world? If this consciousness is originally from another world, then it can follow Liang Xian back!”
Everyone looked at Liang Xian, and Liang Xian also looked at everyone, if this situation is not handled properly, it’s easy to let the team be at odds with each other.
Perhaps some people will think that if Liang Xian doesn’t come back, there will be no invasion of other-worldly consciousness on Earth.
“Could it be that Zhang Hua has now become a zombie?” Tu Zishi guessed.
“Not necessarily,” It was Tan Yan who spoke, he raised his hand and pressed Liang Xian’s shoulder, “I believe in Liang Xian, if he is not sure that the zombie virus has been completely eliminated, he will not come back.”
“And if that consciousness was really on Liang Xian, it shouldn’t have attacked the three subway survivors in the first place, but our supernatural team. It may not be able to defeat Liang Xian who has absorbed countless crystal nuclei, but it should be easy to deal with the new members of the supernatural being. For example, Lucas, who has just awakened his abilities, is the best target.
However, not only did it fail to do so, it also chose the survivors of the subway, which meant that it could not get close to Liang Xian, so it could only look far away3捨近求遠 shě jìn qiú yuǎn: seek far and neglect what lies close at hand; go round the sun to meet the moon..
That being the case, it couldn’t have followed Liang Xian back to the real world, but used another method.”
Tan Yan analyzed every word in an orderly manner, just to help Liang Xian get rid of the suspicion.
Liang Xian finally stopped looking at his metal hand, but held Tan Yan’s palm with the opposite hand, showing a smile.
Only Tan Yan can still trust him at this moment.
Tan Yan continued: “And it is still too early to say that it is reverse crossing, if it’s really that consciousness, shouldn’t it first turn other people into zombies and cause the end of the world? If it wants to spread the zombie virus, it should attack ordinary people in crowded places, so as to spread the virus quickly and on a large scale.”
“Um, this idea is also possible.” Qiao Zhixue said, “But I do not rule out the possibility of reverse crossing by intelligent creatures from other worlds. We have to be prepared for the worst at all times.”
“What’s the worst that can happen?” Ah San asked.
“The ‘void’ is exposed and society is in panic. Someone with their own agenda lures people into the ‘void’, trying to create supernatural beings.” Cui Heyu analyzed.
“Not only that,” Liang Xian suddenly spoke, “If it really is that consciousness, I’ve dealt with it for several months, and I still have some understanding. What it needs is not zombies, but a strong body and energy. The zombie world does not have the same ‘void’ as ours, it is very difficult to awaken ability, and more people become brainless zombies under the invasion of the virus. But our world is different, ‘void’ can turn ordinary people into supernatural beings.”
“Are you saying that we will meet each other in the world inside the ‘void’?” Cui Heyu asked.
Liang Xian shook his head slowly: “No, we may not even encounter the ‘void’ anymore, unless Tu Zishi can accurately predict the time and place of the ‘void’ in advance, otherwise all the ‘void’ will be solved by it.”
Qiao Zhixue understands: “Use the ‘void’ to create supernatural beings, first accumulate power like the zombie world, and finally absorb the energy of these supernatural beings to become the most powerful existence.”
“If that’s the case, then our world will suffer a calamity.” Minister Yu said solemnly, “I will immediately contact the Public Security and Armed Police Department to conduct a carpet search within the B City, we can’t fail to find these six people!”
“Minister, what we’re saying is just a speculation,” Qiao Zhixue said, “This not necessarily be the case.”
Minister Yu said: “But we must prepare for the worst on this side, and the missing is not only the survivors of the subway, but also three excellent soldiers and a supernatural being, if it is really done by someone with their own agenda, we can’t let them succeed, we must find the missing person as soon as possible.”
Minister Yu is right, no matter who the opponent is, they can’t relax at all.
The meeting ended here, Minister Yu went to contact the relevant departments to find the six missing people. The supernatural team and Qiao Zhixue are of little use in this regard, and can only wait quietly.
It was originally a good day for Liang Xian to return to the real world, they still have the upper hand in the process of negotiating with foreign countries, and hopefully get the advanced technology they always needed. In addition, Liang Xian wanted to confirm Tan Yan’s intentions, but was disrupted by an unexpected incident.
The supernatural team returned to their rooms in dismay, Liang Xian was in a very bad mood and kept looking at his hand.
“Is it better if I don’t come back?” After returning to the room, Liang Xian said, “If I die in the zombie world, if I don’t destroy the conspiracy of that consciousness, and don’t care about the life and death of other worlds, our world would not have been in distress.”
Tan Yan, who had been following behind him, suddenly said: “Xiao Lu, go!”
The little deer who got the order rushed forward unceremoniously and bit Liang Xian’s ass again.
“Ouch!” Liang Xian covered his butt, tore the little deer off his body, and looked helplessly at the person and the deer in front of him, “Why did you bite me again this time?”
“If you don’t come back, we will die in the dark energy world.” Tan Yan said lightly, “There is no what if, you beat the virus in your body and come back to the real world, we are all happy. The creation of a ‘void’ in our world means that the Earth has long since entered an apocalyptic era, and even if there is no disaster today, there will be other difficulties.
When I first started working, an old senior told me that problems are meant to be solved, and there are always more solutions than problems4辦法永遠比問題多 bànfǎ yǒngyuǎn bǐ wèntí duō: The methods of solving problems are more than problems itself, meaning, as long as one work hard and think hard, one will always solve the problem.. It’s a waste of time to be depressed, instead of regretting ‘I shouldn’t have done so and so in the first place’, it’s better to cheer up and think about ‘What we should do in the future’.”
Liang Xian smiled helplessly: “Then he shouldn’t bite me in the ass either.”
Tan Yan’s tone of voice was like that of an old senior, which made him feel a little distant again.
“The little deer wants to bite,” Tan Yan pinched the little deer’s ears lovingly, “You always throw him away when you’re done using him, he is very angry.”
Liang Xian’s expression was a little stiff, isn’t he… always jealous that the little deer slept with Tan Yan when he wasn’t around, he has a close relationship with Tan Yan, people and deer were either kissing or hugging, how could he not be jealous.
“The little deer is close to me because of the quantum entanglement with me, similarly, he must also be close to you.” Tan Yan hugged the little deer in front of Liang Xian, “Even if it was not expected at the beginning, he became what he is now because of quantum entanglement with us, shouldn’t you be responsible for him? As an elder, shouldn’t you take good care of him and educate him?”
Liang Xian: “…”
He picked up the little deer and stroked the deer’s face, unexpectedly, his hand was bitten, and the deer stared at him resentfully.
“Why are you biting the right hand again?” Liang Xian helplessly touched his head with his left hand, “I’m not in pain, don’t your teeth hurt?”
The little deer didn’t let go, and continued to bite fiercely, with a pair of eyes as if accusing, you’re a scum who only cares about giving birth but not raising children!
Liang Xian: “…”
He is just a college student who has just turned 20 this year, but he has experienced the feeling of his wife coming to the door with his children.
It’s also quite fresh.
“It’s my fault,” Liang Xian appeased him, “I never knew you were quantum entangled with me, and you helped me deliver messages again and again, and without your permission, it would not have been so easy for me to enter your mind. Thank you, little deer.”
Without saying it, they won’t even realize it, it turns out that the little deer has always been silently helping them.
Hearing his sincere words, the little deer slowly let go, and licked his left hand as a sign of forgiveness.
Tan Yan stood in front of them and said seriously: “No matter what we will face next, the little deer and I will always be with you, even if we don’t have a fiery relationship, can you accept such a response?”
“Exactly what I’ve been looking for.” Liang Xian finally got the answer he always wanted, he hugged the little deer with one hand and Tan Yan’s waist with the other, and said this softly.
The author has something to say:
Liang Xian: It’s not right, the last time you confessed to the little deer, you said much more than this, how come when it comes to me, there is only this sentence?
Tan Yan: I told the little deer once, and Minister Yu once, I’m tired of talking, when it’s your turn, just be more concise, the reader is tired of reading it.
Liang Xian: …
Liang Xian always get the short end of the stick. 😅
