When Wei Mingjie and his wife, Wei Sijia, and Ye Jingran arrived in City D, all the people related to Wei Lan's kidnapping case had been controlled and dealt with. Team 09 was, in a sense, a "death squad" and all died in the action. Mrs. Zhu and her two companions were human traffickers who had nothing to do with the mastermind behind the scenes. The key clue that allowed the police to find the connection between the case and Chengguang was the name of the kidnapper who infiltrated the Wei family, which Wei Lan told them on the train.
With the information provided by Wei Lan, the police actually found those four people. You know, it is almost instinctive for these criminals to use code names or pseudonyms. Unexpectedly, they were caught off guard and Wei Lan was so lucky that he knew all their real names!
"Team Leader Ren, why is Lanlan unconscious? Who is behind this?" Looking through the window at Wei Lan lying in the emergency room, the four people who had just arrived were struck by a bolt from the blue.
I finally got the news that Wei Lan was found, but I didn't expect to see this scene when I arrived.
Ren Liang, the team leader of the special case team, frowned, thinking about the progress report he had received in the few hours since he arrived in City D...
"Team leader, we caught them! The trick of luring the snake out of its hole was indeed the right one. We have captured another group of them in action!"
"We have also captured the positioning signal in reverse. This time the evidence is solid. The suspect Zhang Ting has been arrested. We have found the largest secret laboratory of Red Fox!"
"The support behind the Red Fox... No wonder the enemy knows so much about us... Team leader, we must report to the federal headquarters, and we must report to higher levels. If we report layer by layer, I don't know what will happen to these levels..."
Before the investigation, they thought that the Red Fox organization was only involved in trafficking human organs and conducting illegal drug research. They didn't expect that the tentacles behind it were so terrifying. Not only did they involve a large number of wealthy people, but they even involved some high-ranking figures within the federation.
After the news is reported to a higher level, the Federal Central Crime Unit will take over the rest of the matter. His only job now is to comfort Wei Lan's family.
Ren Liang took a deep breath and explained to the four people present: "According to the on-site investigation, the criminals injected her with an unknown gene catalyst, which reacted with the gene poison that was already in her body. We have already submitted an application to the higher-ups, and the most authoritative academicians in the field of genetics will come to treat and study Ms. Wei Lan's condition. Don't worry, everyone, we will do our best to save her."
Hearing this, everyone in the group turned pale. Ye Luoxue, who had been acting strong all this time, finally couldn't control her tears. She clenched her hands and looked at Wei Lan wearing an oxygen mask in the transparent window. She felt difficulty breathing for a moment.
The fact that Wei Lan grew slowly due to the genetic poison had always been a major concern for Wei Mingjie and his wife. They had originally thought that as long as Wei Lan was healthy and grew slowly, it didn't matter, and they could just raise her again. However, at this time, Wei Lan's life was in danger because of the genetic poison, which suddenly touched upon what the couple feared the most.
Wei Sijia, who was standing by, supported Ye Luoxue with tears in her eyes. She looked at the unconscious little figure inside and thought of Wei Lan, who was still full of life when they met last weekend. She felt heartbroken.
"In addition, it has been confirmed that the perpetrators of the kidnapping case are several shareholders of Chengguang. They want to harm Wei Lan because of business competition. As for the genetic medicine in her body, the things involved... more investigation content, my level is not enough for me to access now."
From Ren Liang's words, the four of them had already heard that there were deep things involved in the development of the genetic poison, but as Wei Lan's relatives, they were most concerned about her situation now.
Ye Jingran asked in confusion: "Lanlan is obviously in such a dangerous situation, why don't you send more people to protect her!"
Ren Liang looked at the four people who were looking over excitedly. He had known that he would encounter such a situation. However, facing Wei Lan who was now in the intensive care unit, he also understood the emotions of the family members at the moment. He smiled bitterly and explained: "To tell you the truth, the other party's tentacles are far beyond your imagination..."
Ren Liang did not directly say that the "Red Fox" could detect some police intelligence, but the people present could understand it from his words.
"Because of the initial hospital fire and the mistaken abduction incident, the people there didn't know that Ms. Wei Lan was still alive. Otherwise, they would have gone to Hekou Village and kidnapped her long ago. If we arrange for someone to stay with her and protect her, it would attract their attention and alert them to the existence of such a survivor."
Ren Liang sighed: "This kidnapping was purely because Ms. Wei Lan was too successful in her career, which caused Cheng Guang's malicious competition, which led to this accident..."
These words made the four of them choke. Are they still going to criticize Wei Lan for being too successful in making movies?
"But fortunately, because of this incident, we destroyed the gang behind the genetic poison. You can think about it from a better perspective." Ren Liang said, "The first-hand information obtained from there will help our genetic biologists and medical scholars analyze her physical condition. It is definitely better than having no clue before. Maybe we can find a solution to the problem of genetic poison in her body once and for all."
Ren Liang's words hit the nail on the head. Ye Jingran was the first to ignite hope. He patted his cousin and his wife on the shoulders and said, "That's right. We have to think positively. I believe Lanlan will wake up soon. She has so many movie plans that she hasn't filmed yet!"
Wei Sijia sniffed and cheered herself up: "Yeah, she has so many movie plans!"
A glimmer of hope finally appeared in the eyes of Wei Mingjie and his wife.
…
When he regained consciousness, Wei Lan found himself in an ancient world, a somewhat dilapidated and cold palace.
The difference is that Wei Lan's situation at this moment is very strange. She is not anyone in this palace. It is like she is in a director's machine, with the 'God's perspective' turned on.
However, this "God's perspective" is only a bystander effect, and it does not have the effect of guiding the whole world with one thought in the director's machine. It is a bit like the alien dream Wei Lan had in the past, but compared to that passive viewing, Wei Lan feels that he has more initiative at this moment.
For example, her consciousness can move to any place and any perspective in the palace just like in the director's machine, but it cannot exceed a certain range.
This range... After testing, Wei Lan found that it all revolved around the woman sleeping on the couch in the palace, radiating a certain distance with her as the center. The world beyond that distance was like the fog of war in a game. Although he knew there was something, Wei Lan's observation perspective could not reach it.
At first Wei Lan thought it was a dream, but worried about the reality, she tried many ways to wake herself up, but to no avail.
So soon, Wei Lan realized that he was not dreaming, as he would not be able to maintain clear consciousness for so long in a dream.
The only person I can contact now is...
"System, system?"
"Host."
The system still responded, and Wei Lan became excited: "What's going on now? Where am I?"
The system explained in a mechanical voice: "The host's body has fallen into genetic collapse, and the remaining points are not enough to maintain the host's normal activities. Because the host's consciousness dimension is advanced, it has triggered the system protection clause. I have activated clause 3287 of the high-dimensional protocol to temporarily break the host's consciousness into the space-time wormhole, and link the dream to this parallel space-time where points can be obtained. If the host can earn enough 100 million points for the genetic antidote, the host can be awakened in reality."
Wei Lan was confused by the series of names, but he quickly sorted out what the system meant: "So how many points do I have left? What happened to my real body?"
"Excluding the consumption of the space-time wormhole, the host now has 4582 points remaining."
If Wei Lan was not a conscious being now, her expression would definitely become very confused. After thinking for a while, she asked the system again: "Can I still get points in that world in reality?"
"Yes, but the host can no longer continue to move in reality. At that time, the host loses consciousness. After system comparison and analysis, the dream connection system is used to earn points in parallel time and space. This allows the host to recover its ability to move faster than passively waiting for points to increase in reality."
After listening to the system's explanation, Wei Lan understood. Although he didn't know whether the system was lying or not, if Wei Lan was awake at that time, he would also choose this path, rather than lying unconscious on the hospital bed and passively waiting for the points to increase, rather than actively looking for ways to obtain points like he is now.
Opportunities must be sought proactively. Wei Lan has never been a passive person. If there is a faster way, she will always give it a try. She thought about how worried her family and friends would be if she were unconscious for a long time in reality.
Wei Lan, who once had no worries, now has a family and things to worry about after traveling through time.
However, thinking about earning points, a problem arose. Wei Lan asked the system: "But this is ancient times! Compared to the speed of information dissemination in modern times, it is much more difficult to quickly gain favor!"
"Host, the essence of points is a kind of high-dimensional energy that I can convert here. Favorability is the embodiment of the real world you are in. The rules of the world in different time and space are also different from your world. The points in this world need to be exchanged with the host's luck. The embodiment of luck in this world is power. That is, if we can improve the host's power, we can get points."
After hearing this, Wei Lan had a new question: "But I don't have a body now, how can I get points?"
She looked at the beautiful woman who had awakened on the couch. She was looking around in doubt and fear. From the fact that Wei Lan's perception range was centered on the other party, it could be seen that Wei Lan wanted to earn points and had something to do with the other party. Wei Lan couldn't help but ask the system hesitantly: "Are you going to use the body possession trick and let me replace someone else?"
According to the usual routine of novel scripts, Wei Lan should possess the woman in front of him.
In the real world, Wei Lan did not feel any guilt about this until he learned that the original owner had died of genetic collapse and that he had automatically existed in the body as soon as he traveled through time.
But the current situation is different. Others are still alive. Wei Lan feels uncomfortable even if she has to use someone else's body temporarily. Although she may still do it for the sake of her life in the end, Wei Lan is essentially opposed to doing so.
Then I heard the system say: "Host, you may have made a mistake. She is your host."
Wei Lan: “???”
“…System, are you saying what I understand?” Wei Lan wanted to scratch his ears.
System: “Yes.”
Wei Lan fell silent.
Sheng Baixuan listened to the conversations coming from her consciousness. A female voice and a mechanical voice were saying things that she could not understand at all.
After hesitating for a long time, Sheng Baixuan confirmed that it was not her hallucination, finally when the conversation paused.
She finally couldn't help it, and asked hesitantly and tremblingly: "Who is talking? But... ghosts and gods?"
Wei Lan, who was still digesting the huge amount of information, was shocked and asked the system: "How can she hear us talking?"
System: "We are linked to her consciousness. Just like the host can hear me talking, she is the only one in this world who can hear us talking."
What the hell is this!
Wei Lan looked at the frightened ancient woman. Judging from her attire and the situation of the palace, it was obvious that she was a poor concubine living in the cold palace. He didn't want to scare her mentally, so he asked, "Can't we block our conversation? Let her not hear it."
System: "Yes, as long as the host has this thought, the shielding can be completed."
"..." Wei Lan had the idea of not letting Sheng Baixuan hear her words, and asked the system again: "Can't she hear it now?"
Without waiting for the system to answer, Wei Lan said again: "Hey, hey, hey, beautiful lady, can you hear me?"
This time, Sheng Baixuan was really focused, but there was no expression of being frightened on her face, it seemed that she could not hear it.
Wei Lan exhaled and asked the system again: "So I have become a system now, and she is my host?"
System: "Host, you can understand it this way."
Wei Lan: "What about you?"
System: "I am the system that hosts you."
Wei Lan: "You're playing with nesting dolls here?! Damn——"
System (covering): "Children should not swear."
…
Wei Lan adjusted his mood. After all, he thought that since he was in a coma, he had nothing to do. It would be an experience to experience being a system. "Okay, now I am a system. What golden fingers can I use to help my host reach the pinnacle of life? How about a palace fighting points mall?"
System: "No, the dream link can only observe, but cannot affect the reality of this world."
I knew this system was unreliable, but I didn't expect it to be this unreliable.
Wei Lan: "So I am now a system that is even more useless than you?"
system:"……"
Wei Lan: "Alright, let's just play it down. It seems like I have no other use except giving this girl some ideological and political lessons."
system:"……"
When she woke up the next morning, Sheng Baixuan looked very bad. Although she didn't hear the strange sound again, she was so frightened last night that she couldn't fall asleep. She even had a nightmare in the second half of the night and felt very bad when she got up.
Life in the cold palace was simple and lonely. Lunch consisted of a bowl of white porridge and four assorted side dishes.
Sheng Baixuan had a poor appetite and was only interested in eating vegetarian food every day. When she picked up the bowl today, a cold female voice suddenly came from her head.
"Don't drink it, it's poisonous."
When Sheng Baixuan heard these words suddenly, she lost hold of the spoon in her hand and it fell to the ground with a bang, making a crisp breaking sound.
She suddenly raised her eyes and looked at the maid beside her, Lvliu, who looked at her blankly: "My lady, what's wrong with you?"
The voice just now was extremely clear, and Sheng Baixuan was sure that she definitely couldn't have heard it wrong!
"You don't have to say anything, just talk to me in your heart and I can hear you." The female voice sounded again, speaking with understanding.
Sheng Baixuan stared blankly at Lvliu's nervous expression and slowly waved her hand away: "It's okay, I want to rest on the bed..."
"Are you... a god, a ghost, or a demon?" Sheng Baixuan, who had never encountered such a bizarre thing, asked in her heart.
"The situation is a bit complicated. You have to believe that I am here to help you..." Wei Lan used language that the ancients could understand to roughly explain to the girl the symbiotic relationship between the host and the system.
However, it seems that in Sheng Baixuan's understanding, Wei Lan was still understood as a ghost who would not harm her for the time being.
As for why Wei Lan changed his mind, he wanted to take the initiative to continue to implement the plan to help Sheng Baixuan gain power and earn points.
Because just now, she found that although she did not have any substantial influence on the world like she was in the director machine, she was "observing" the world as the system said. Standing in a higher dimension, Wei Lan could see everything within a certain range around Sheng Baixuan from a God's perspective.
Wei Lan discovered that he could also see the "information" of these items.
For example, the bowl of porridge that looked ordinary to people in this world, Wei Lan knew it was drugged as soon as he saw it.
This discovery suddenly aroused the interest of Wei Lan, who had been somewhat uninterested, because if this was the case, except that she could not subjectively change the 'props' of this world, then what she could do in this world was not much different from what she could do in the director's machine.
Then Wei Lan tried it immediately. She spent points to check the emotional memory moments of everyone within her reach, and it worked.
Just like the system said, its host is still Wei Lan. Even though Wei Lan has now become 'System Wei Lan', he can still use the functions of the system. In this way, she has indirectly grasped a lot of information... especially her current 'host' Sheng Baixuan.
With these two functions, as long as Sheng Baixuan can cooperate, then everything can go back to the area that Wei Lan is most familiar with - filming.
In this film, Wei Lan could not change the props of the scenery, but knew enough information to write the script on the spot.
The 'host' in front of her, Sheng Baixuan, is her heroine and the only actor she can mobilize in the entire 'movie'.
"I understand... Fairy Lady." Even though Sheng Baixuan might think that Wei Lan was a wandering ghost in her heart, she naturally addressed Wei Lan politely.
Wei Lan: "Don't call me Fairy Lady."
Sheng Baixuan readily agreed: "Then how should I address you?"
Wei Lan: "Call me director."
Sheng Baixuan: "Director...actor?"
"Good, the heroine is in place." Wei Lan chuckled, thinking that this might be the most special scene he had ever filmed in his life.
"A."
With Wei Lan's "a", under the multiple restrictions of being unable to move the set, writing the storyboards in real time, and only one actor being available, this palace power drama, in which the only real audiences are Wei Lan and the system and everyone else is just an actor, began filming.
