Chapter 30 Real Scene Interpretation (5) “After all, you also hate this…
After Fei finished speaking, he saw that Xie Jianshan's expression had obviously changed. This young captain of the Operations Department had very keen observation skills, and his accurate sixth sense allowed him to make more favorable judgments.
Then, through Fei's teasing tone, we can grasp another non-targeted intention.
Xie Jianshan recalled their last conversation. He took up the subject, sheathing his gun and rehinging it on his belt as he responded. "I hope, as you say, this might not be a bad thing."
His hand was still on the handle. Maintaining vigilance was a necessary lesson for every member of the Operations Department. "If you were to replace Wine, would you stand against the Operations Department?"
"I think, or rather, I hope not."
Xie Jianshan still denied the possibility that Fei would take the opposing side. He stared at him, his dark eyes piercing with a sharp, scrutinizing expression. "After all, you also hate what's happening, don't you?"
Most of the players who were forced into the ghost story game did not do so voluntarily. Even Fei, who had already completed the game, could not remain indifferent. Even if he did not care about his own life, what about his family members around him?
Fei could have stayed in that absurd game of ghost stories. He had the ability to ensure his own survival, could have enjoyed the attention and admiration, provoked disputes in exchange for everything he wanted, and walked recklessly on the boundary between reality and falsehood.
With the help of the game, no one could catch Fei, but he chose to return to reality.
"Of course, you're right." Fei chuckled. He knew Xie Jianshan still separated him from U and didn't put them in the same category. "I don't have the idea of protecting ghost stories yet."
Xie Jianshan could vaguely guess that he suddenly brought this up to discuss something else, but he wasn't sure why. "What do you want?"
Fei didn't respond directly. He calmly prepared for the main topic: "I have helped you a few times. I handled ghost stories, and you took them in. We worked together well."
It can barely be said to be an irrelevant tacit understanding, or more accurately, a coincidence.
"I don't steal the fruits of other people's labor, but U has endangered the stability of social order after all, and I am happy to help you deal with it." Fei was getting a little interested in making up a story, but he quickly calmed down to avoid any misunderstanding from Xie Jianshan.
Fei finally stated his purpose: "U has caused a lot of trouble for the Operations Department. I can help you solve it, as long as you provide me with support and cover for me. In addition, I need a promise. I want you to help me protect two people."
Xie Jianshan didn't agree blindly at first. He asked, "Who do you want us to protect?"
"Haven't you long suspected I was related to the Ninth Day?" Fei relied on the fact that there was no connection between the two identities and they couldn't find out, so he thought of using his other identity. "The producer of the Ninth Day, Bai Bei, and his brother."
Feidu felt that he was too meticulous. Most people around him just called him "Bei". Only people he was not familiar with would call him by his full name, a name that was unfamiliar to him.
Before being adopted, he only remembered his first name, Bei, as if his last name was irrelevant.
"I originally planned to find a newcomer so it would be more covert, but I chose him and managed to convey the game content to Bo Bei through his dreams. At that time, he was developing his first game, and I thought he would not miss such an idea."
Fei defined himself as a behind-the-scenes figure. "He did a great job. The Ninth Day was released smoothly. I didn't reveal all the settings of the dungeon to him, but he still managed to perfect it."
"It's a good idea for you to choose him as a consultant." Fei boasted without batting an eyelid. "Bai Bei is very suitable for ghost story games."
Xie Jianshan spoke with a hint of disapproval, "You shouldn't drag an ordinary person into this. Even though he hasn't been substantially affected yet, he's been plagued by players' interference in the past."
"I know, so I helped him stop it. Besides, he not only gained enough fame, but also made a lot of money. Isn't this enough to make up for it?" Fei disagreed.
He suddenly lowered his head, lifted his sleeve and looked at his watch. Fei's action was sudden and quick, and the fog obscured the view, so Xie Jianshan had no chance of seeing the watch clearly. It was a watch of similar style that appeared on Bai Bei's hand a few days ago.
"We wasted a lot of time here. Thanks, Captain. See you next time if there's a chance."
Fei said it lightly, and in a few words, he dropped a bombshell, not giving Xie Jianshan a chance to react. "Tomorrow I will visit the headquarters of the Operations Department in City A. We have more things to discuss. I hope you will welcome me."
The thick fog obscured his figure, and he disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye. No matter how fast Xie Jianshan chased, he could only grasp a piece of empty white mist with his hand. This card caught him off guard, and he might even have to thank Fei Dafa for his kind advance notice.
Tomorrow, Xie Jianshan really wanted to hold his forehead and smile bitterly. Did he know that the Operations Department had a simulation training tomorrow? He was so tired that he had no brain cells left to talk to others.
But he did misunderstand Fei this time.
Fei didn't know what kind of simulation training the Operations Department would have tomorrow. He chose this time because he was not so busy recently and he could squeeze out some time to slack off and go to the Operations Department.
Why are the dialog boxes all blank? Old thief, stop just drawing people! Where are the words?! You're not even acting anymore! You're not even going to tell us the riddles anymore, are you?!
What did Fei say? Why is Captain Xie so serious? Is that old thief trying to get Fei to defect and join the villains? That would be a tough fate for him.
[Impossible, Fei Ge is too strong. How can we play as the villain? There won't even be any ghost stories. Our team will be wiped out immediately and it will be game over. This is even worse than the previous game. TT]
[What! The villain Fei! Oh my god, then you're so lucky, Wine, you can rest in peace! Everyone dies sooner or later anyway, and since Brother Fei is willing to take over, why don't you just die and make the boss happy ()]
[The villain leader Fei has excited your brains. Does no one care about the lives of other people in the sequel?]
After confirming that the content of his conversation with Xie Jianshan had not been leaked, Fei returned to the floor where the data room was originally located. He walked into another room, took out the communication tool from the backpack on the panel, put the gun on the table, and then sat on the chair.
He changed back to his original appearance, lay down on the table, found a more comfortable position and began to pretend to sleep.
The system that thought of what Bai Bei was going to do: [……]
System: [Guest, this is a secret room. You are not allowed to sleep anywhere.]
"Dealing with the Operations Department is already troublesome enough." Bo Bei sighed, "I'd better pretend in front of Shi Yu. It's most convenient to know nothing."
In order to live a peaceful life, Bai Bei resolutely decided to throw away the brains of a producer. He waited in the room for about twenty minutes. Shi Yu and the others finally came over. He opened his eyes blearily and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What happened...?" Bai Bei was being pulled by Shi Yu's arm to check for any injuries. Just as the young man was about to rip open his collar to inspect him further, he suddenly came to his senses and quickly stopped him. "Why are you here?"
Bai Bei looked around blankly, as if he was extremely confused. "Is the secret room over? I accidentally fell asleep."
Shi Yu was also a little confused, and the explanation about the ghost story was stuck in his throat. He was originally worried that Bai Bei might be overly frightened by encountering the ghost story in person, resulting in mental stimulation and psychological trauma. He was afraid that he would have a stress reaction.
But now it seems that Bai Bei didn't see any of this. Shi Yu was still a little worried. He asked again: "Didn't you see anything? For example, did the surrounding scene change or something?"
"No." Bai Bei stood up. Because he had been lying on the table for too long, his vision went dark when he stood up suddenly. Fortunately, Wen Tingxu beside him was quick to support him. The young man used his ability to check his physical condition more deeply.
Wen Tingxu nodded to the uneasy Su Yang and Shi Yu, telling them not to worry, Bai Bei was fine.
Bai Bei, who hadn't noticed the eye contact between the three, was still thinking about the escape room experience he had missed. He sighed regretfully, "Strange, how could I fall asleep? Is this escape room really that boring?"
Wen Tingxu: "..."
Su Yang: "Hmm... maybe."
Shi Yu: "Uh, well...Brother, let's go out first."
[Secret Room: Reputation is unfortunately harmed]
The poor escape room kept crying. The ghost story inexplicably rushed up, shouting "arrival". There was no choice but to leave the escape room. In the end, the customers even said it was boring (I can't do it anymore, this is a bit embarrassing)
"Brother Robot, you really...ah, I really am...I went through all the strange stories and still didn't see anything. I'm not surprised. You, old thief, are fully responsible."
Is it because of Fei that I fell asleep? That weird story about hide-and-seek is that Fei used a tool, so Xiaoyu heard that I fell asleep too... Damn, why is it that I always fall asleep when I see Fei?
[A very novel play, in order to prevent my brother from knowing the existence of the ghost story and scaring him, that's a bit too considerate. Brother Fei, I'm going to start knocking my life to death again (pure rumor)]
A passerby, whose "empty-headed" has become a fixed adjective, calmly said that he didn't even understand the barrage, and if it was to save trouble, it was okay to sacrifice one's IQ occasionally.
After Bai Bei followed Shi Yu and the others out, he saw Xie Jianshan, Lin Yuan, and several uniformed police officers. He walked over and asked, "Did anything happen in the secret room?"
Xie Jianshan glanced at him and continued to talk to Bai Bei, who was acting as if nothing had happened: "Well, we just found a dangerous person in the secret room. You can go and take a statement later."
He mouthed a few words: "No need to sign a contract."
Bai Bei agreed. He took the phone from Xie Jianshan. The message from Shen Que and notifications from other applications were lying in the information bar. He asked him how he enjoyed playing in the escape room.
Chen Que should have known that a strange story had descended upon the secret room. Xie Jianshan and the others were all there, so he couldn't ask him directly about the strange story. He could only send a message using the coded sentence structure they had agreed upon.
Bo Bei lowered his head and typed a reply to Chen Que, leaving ample space for Shi Yu and Xie Jianshan to speak: [It was okay. It ended much earlier than I expected.]
[Ready to go back. By the way, will you come to the studio tomorrow? ]
Bo Bei usually wouldn't ask him whether he was going to the studio or not. He knew that Shen Que was very busy and only focused on the results. Even if the profits were dismal, he would just continue to spend money like crazy without caring. The other party quickly understood what he meant and sent a message.
Chen Que: [You can come if you need.]
Bai Bei: [Okay, I'll contact you if I need anything.]
