As the days passed, for most people in Hope City, there was no noticeable difference between recent days and the past.
But some people who have some access to the core, and those who radiate outward from them, have clearly felt the tension of the recent atmosphere.
And all these changes originated from something that Lin Qingliu did personally, that is, the secret room disappearance case.
Such an incident was a huge shame for the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was responsible for supervision. As an ordinary team leader, Zhuang Mian was called to meetings every day recently.
This is what made her very unhappy. The disappearance of key figures made the congressmen very annoyed.
The annoyed lawmakers began to curse the top executives of the three major institutions.
The senior management, who were scolded a lot, began to put pressure on the middle management.
The middle-level workers, who are under enough pressure, are starting to put pressure on the lower-level workers.
The workers who are jumping back and forth between being able to hold on and not being able to hold on can only feel helpless and furious.
Now Zhuang Mian is just a wage earner, at most he is a more capable one.
Frequent meetings often interrupt her work.
She had begun to build up anger in her regarding this, just like when she had tracked down the Mind Flayer to no avail.
But every time she thought of this past event, a special feeling would surge in Zhuang Mian's heart again, because in her memory, it seemed that there was indeed someone who could do something similar...
And that person has been out of contact for some time.
---
There are many surveillance cameras in the Super Power Headquarters, and recently new ones have been added in the living rooms of every lounge.
Such an arrangement naturally aroused dissatisfaction among many people. The super-powered people believed that they had contributed all resources, including corpses, to Hope City, but they could not even have a little basic right to privacy.
As they already stand above millions of people, this is somewhat difficult for them to accept.
But this time, the official attitude is particularly tough, and the surveillance camera must be installed no matter what.
Their reasons were very sufficient - there was still no clue about the disappearance of the "Nian" team, and no one was obviously satisfied with such progress.
Even a guy like Shadow Master, who is somewhat jealous of the Nian team, hopes that such unsolved cases will be solved quickly.
Because they were the last group of people to come into contact with the "Nian" team's outing, they are still undergoing internal review.
Don't let me know who did this!
The photographer, who was imprisoned in the small cell, angrily carved the fifth scratch on the wall with the unpolished corner of the shackles.
Of course, not all super-powered people are averse to installing surveillance.
The members of the super-powered team who are about to go out of town to explore in a few days have no such worries.
They are already on the verge of collapse under the increasing pressure and have no time to think about whether their privacy has been violated.
The first thing these super-powered people do when they return to the lounge every day is to take a shower, and the second thing is to go back to their rooms and go to sleep.
When they open their eyes the next day, there will be a new round of training waiting for them. This will be repeated over and over again. Even the occasional small-scale beast tides and random tasks will not find them. It seems like a closed training.
As the second phase of exploration day approaches, a lot of training has been added to the point where it can no longer be added.
Even a die-hard explorer like Fresnel has been a little scared by the training recently.
As long as the sun has not set, the Fresnel beam of light can be shrunk to the thickness of a finger at a few hundred meters, enough to melt some steel plates.
So what happens after the sun goes down?
The answer is that Hope City implemented time-limited electricity supply to a dozen blocks near the Super Power Headquarters, and used all the saved electricity for lighting, thus creating training conditions for Fresnel after sunset.
As for Wang Xiao, he rarely takes a shower recently, because the skin and flesh that fall off during training always directly take away the sweat on his body...
During the initial period when the "Nian" team disappeared, many super-powered people thought that the outdoor exploration mission would be cancelled.
Even Shi Jin and Puppet Master, two less experienced team members, thought so.
But Fresnel soon shattered their fantasy.
It was impossible to cancel it. When we left, there were loud drums and gongs, and when we came back, there were huge crowds of people, it looked like a complete victory.
The disappearance of the five-member team undoubtedly needs to be kept strictly confidential.
In other words, if the outing was cancelled, then in the eyes of those uninformed humans, the officials of Hope City would become capricious and cowardly villains.
If he admitted this, it would mean admitting his incompetence to the general public.
There is no other way, and the only way for Hope City officials to solve the problem is to bite the bullet and continue to implement it.
Perhaps the only compensation they can make to the super-powered people is to increase the intensity of their training and try to reduce their casualties in real battles.
And...increasing insurance and pensions...
No matter what everyone thought in their hearts, five days later, October 10th, that day finally came.
The official broadcast of Hope City started promoting the second phase of the exploration plan a few days ago, and there are press releases with different skins and rebroadcasts every day.
By now, there are few people in Hope City who don’t know that this is about to happen.
So on the morning of this day, many people flocked to the city gate closest to them.
Among them were a one-armed, down-and-out young man, teenagers with excited faces, and more were ordinary people who wanted to take a look at the outside world before going to work.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It’s even more exciting later!
