"What kind of warning report is this?!"
"Quickly dispel the rumors; we mustn't cause panic!"
The Secretary-General's temper flared up.
After confirming there were no warnings, he left without turning his head and gave the order.
And so it was.
After Yan Jiu left a message on social media, netizens waited and waited, only to receive an official denial from the R country.
[@R Country Official V: Regarding the suspected volcanic eruption on March 10th, we reiterate: there was absolutely no such event!]
[I knew it was fake, what a disappointment.jpg]
Country R would never joke about its own people.
Why are the people from country Z silent this time? They're all looking down, trying to find their faces.
People from other countries watched the spectacle with amusement.
Seeing that the R country's official authorities personally refuted the rumors, they were happy to mock the drunken madman who firmly believed that Yan Jiu's prediction was correct.
They thought netizens would refute or explain, but they didn't expect these people to have learned to pander.
[The peak breeds false support, the twilight reveals true believers—yes, this is all a rumor!]
[Yes, yes, yes, it's a rumor. Don't believe it or run away!]
[The R country official is right, clapping clapping.jpg]
Many netizens were stunned.
Are you alright?
Are you furious?
Were they still half asleep, or did their drunkenness turn them into their own madness?
This doesn't make sense!
But then they remembered a popular saying: the higher you stand, the harder you fall. When people from China don't disagree, they should be wary of whether they are just praising them.
Asuka is a perfect example!
Unfortunately, the Secretary-General was unaware of these matters; he was in his office listening to one report after another.
The Secretary-General looked up with displeasure and interrupted his subordinate's report once again.
"Isn't it normal for volcanoes to emit smoke?"
Is it really necessary to raise this issue once or twice?
"You guys are still too idle. We should find you something to do."
The staff member responsible for submitting the report was sweating profusely. He was caught in the middle and was in a real predicament. The local official was afraid to take responsibility, so he naturally had to ask questions again and again.
Unfortunately, the Secretary-General didn't believe it!
He could only say that distance creates not only beauty, but also information isolation.
The staff member sighed inwardly and explained cautiously, "There's someone who wants you to keep an eye on things."
The Secretary-General leaned back in his chair leisurely: "Speak."
The staff member took out a phone: "A funeral livestreamer with the online name 'Slow Walk, No Sending Off, One-Stop Funeral Service,' named Yan Jiu."
For some reason, people can't get a good shot of Yan Jiu; all screenshots or candid photos are distorted.
The staff had no choice but to verbally recount Yan Jiu's deeds to their superiors, pointing to Yan Jiu's account.
The Secretary-General scoffed: "Is a funeral broadcaster from country Z really that unsettling for you?"
The East believes in the supernatural and deities.
Country R is no exception.
However, he believes that Yan Jiu's strangeness is a persona deliberately created by the Z country, specifically for psychological warfare.
Otherwise, why can't we find any photos or stories about Yan Jiu? It must be official hacking!
The staff member, unsuspecting, said, "But all the people she was following have died."
The Secretary-General thought he had hit the nail on the head: "Find some people who are about to die beforehand, and then put on a show together. That's enough to fool you guys. I've seen through the methods of China long ago."
Staff: "..."
How similar this situation is! The Secretary-General's thoughts are the same as those of the Z country anchor who stood up to refute the rumors back then.
What was the final outcome?
Gaa!
At most, only one person might not believe it, but the Secretary-General is not the only one who doesn't believe it.
In her latest post, Yan Jiu mentioned that travel vloggers can accidentally end up with volcanic ash, which indirectly leads to the conclusion that a volcano may erupt.
The staff racked their brains but still couldn't convince anyone, so he chose to take a different approach and report the matter to the Prime Minister.
The staff member read a report: "Yan Jiu followed a travel streamer who went to the foot of the volcano. The streamer believed it and, along with many other Chinese people, called on Chinese people to leave."
The Secretary-General's smile deepened: "Would the people of Country Z be so kind? It's clearly a conspiracy, haha, this is hilarious! I'm going to tell this joke to the Prime Minister!"
He said it and he did it.
Unexpectedly.
Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister slumped into his chair, repeatedly asking if the person he was concerned about was Yan Jiu.
The Secretary-General glanced at the report: "It's her, a clown who tries to attract attention. Only a fool would believe her."
prime minister:"……"
Before today, he wouldn't have believed it either, but the unexpected deaths of Kamo no Shigeaki and several other Onmyoji terrified him. Without Onmyoji, Japan was in grave danger.
The typhoon already caught Japan off guard, and the volcanic eruption on top of that has unimaginable consequences.
The Prime Minister tried to remain calm: "Activate the level two alert, evacuate the population, and bring up the satellite monitoring of the volcano. I need to see it in three minutes."
The Secretary-General asked, puzzled, "Is it necessary?"
The Prime Minister angrily rebuked: "Execute the order!"
He knew that the volcano would smoke from time to time.
Since the alarm didn't sound, he, like most people, didn't believe the volcano would actually erupt.
After all, the early warning device was one of the products sponsored by the United States, and he didn't believe that their partner would cheat them in such a way, but the United States couldn't gamble on that possibility.
Yan Jiu can create a persona that goes viral and get people from China to act along, but the report shows that there are many other countries involved, including the United States.
Will the whole world play along with Yan Jiu's act?
Absolutely impossible!
The Prime Minister had no idea how R country had become so unlucky; he just hoped the volcanic eruption was a hoax and that the warning system wasn't malfunctioning.
While waiting for the surveillance video.
