The road section on the old street has been closed. Many traffic police and police officers have come. Someone has been assigned to communicate with witnesses and sign confidentiality agreements. Everything seen tonight cannot be disseminated to the outside world. All photos and videos must be deleted and not be posted on social networking sites.
One of the videos was kept by the staff. It was the video of Lu Jiu fighting with a harpoon.
The staff called all the enhanced people present to watch the video. After watching it, they were full of questions. What was the situation with Lu Jiu's harpoon? Could it come and go so freely?
Lu Yu looked at Bai Zhixing.
Bai Zhixing: "I am sure that his ability is sound. Old Zang is the best example."
Bai Zhixing and Zang Ye are a team. Zang Ye has not yet recovered from Rujiu's ability and cannot perform tasks for the time being. Bai Zhixing came here with the team alone.
Lu Yu glanced at Rujiu and Si Xu who were sitting on the side of the road and talking. Si Xu was holding a wine bottle in his hand.
Lu Yu walked over, "Are you not injured?"
Si Xu's face had not recovered yet, "Did you walk here?"
Lu Yu: "..."
Lu Yu coughed dryly, "It's rush hour, too congested."
Even the police car had to lead the way and the vehicles had to move slowly to give way. This time period is really terrible.
Si Xu: "I thought you were afraid of fighting and were late on purpose."
Lu Yu: "..."
Si Xu choked and said, "What's going on? What is this?"
"The information we have received so far is that a boss bought a sea fish from a fisherman. It was quite big and looked weird. We didn't know if it was delicious. The boss bought it to try it. The fisherman sent it to him in a small truck, packed it in boxes, and provided seawater and oxygen. He was afraid that the big fish would die on the road and would be worthless. He drove for more than seven hours on the road, and finally arrived here. He opened the door and got this thing out."
Si Xu frowned, "Isn't it like this?"
"The fisherman was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly. He kept repeating that what he sent was fish, not this thing." Lu Yu took out the cigarette box and handed Si Xu a cigarette. After handing it over, he remembered, "Forget it, you'd better not smoke. You are so sick, it's important to take care of your health."
Si Xu: "..."
He glanced at Lu Jiu beside him. Lu Jiu didn't react much, and Si Xu suddenly wanted to have one too.
Lu Yu handed Lu Jiu another cigarette, "Boss Lu, do you want one?"
Lu Jiu shook her head, "I don't smoke."
Lu Yu lit one himself and smoked slowly, "Boss Lu is very familiar with the use of harpoons."
Lu Jiu glanced at him and said nothing.
"It's a pity that you don't join our department. Do you want to reconsider it?" Lu Yu tried to persuade.
"Don't consider it." Lu Jiu refused decisively.
Lu Yu sighed helplessly, and after a while he said: "This kind of thing should be quite common in the future."
Lu Jiu and Si Xu both looked at Lu Yu, waiting for his next words.
"Coastal cities have been very unstable recently. It's okay here for now, but the situation abroad is more serious. There have been a series of missing persons cases, some missing at sea, and some missing at the seaside. Investigators have been guarding the seaside and have taken some photos..."
"What photos?" Lu Jiu is more interested in the sea, and is also interested in the anomalies in the sea.
Lu Yu pointed at the dead monster and said, "It's just like this. A strange fish in the sea washed up on the beach, but failed to catch any prey, so it went back into the sea. Those missing people are basically dead."
Lu Jiu: "..."
Lu Jiu was silent for a long time before he said, "Have you been eating sea fish recently?"
Lu Yu: "I haven't eaten fish for almost half a month, neither sea fish nor freshwater fish."
Who knows which fish has eaten people. He knew too much about the truth and couldn't eat it anymore.
Si Xu said, "What happened in the sea? Can you tell me?"
Lu Yu glanced at Lu Jiu and said, "You can tell insiders."
Outsiders Lu Jiu: "..."
Lu Jiu: "Business is not good recently. We have no ingredients and no fruit wine."
Lu Yu: "..."
Lu Yu: "You signed a confidentiality agreement and you are an enhanced person. You should know the seriousness of the matter. You can listen to it." Lu
Jiu was satisfied.
Lu Yu considered his words and said, "Some time ago, an offshore survey company discovered a mysterious underwater palace. After careful survey, they found that the palace was sealed. The survey company was very excited and wanted to open the palace door to see what was inside. As a result, they tried various methods but couldn't open it."
"The surveyors have been struggling on the sea for a while. Suddenly, the surveying company announced that they wanted to sell the discovery and the palace. The powers that received the news sent people there. When they arrived, they found out the reason why the surveying company sold the palace. Their surveyors fell ill and died one after another. When they planned to sell the palace, several people had already died, and some were in the late stage of serious illness..."
Lu Yu took a deep breath of smoke and exhaled slowly. "Seeing this phenomenon, several major powers were both excited and jealous. They immediately asked ordinary people to leave that sea area and only left capable people on the scene..."
"Is it radiation?" Si Xu had a vague guess.
Lu Jiu frowned. He thought of the "unknown energy radiation" mentioned by Si Xu.
Lu Yu took two puffs of cigarette silently before saying, "It's radiation. The surveying company has realized the seriousness of this problem. There is a strange energy leak, and this energy is very unfriendly and deadly. They have detected a large amount of radiation energy leakage, which is too deadly in the sea. They dare not think about what will happen if a large number of marine life are extinct. Even if there is no extinction, it will cause mutations of marine species, which is a very terrifying thing. These are not problems that a surveying company can solve, so several countries have come to find a way to solve this problem."
Lu Jiu suddenly understood what the system meant by "intelligent life forms like self-destruction the most."
Lu Jiu frowned deeply. From the attitude of the system, he vaguely realized that things might be more serious than humans imagined. Look at how well this matter has been kept secret. There is no news from the outside world. Many people still think that the world is very scientific and peaceful. They cannot control their behavior because they are not aware of the danger.
Lu Yu said to Si Xu: "You should understand the importance of unknown energy to a country. Without unknown energy, there would be no enhanced people, superpowers, and super warriors. Therefore, knowing that there is unknown energy in the palace under the sea, no force can remain indifferent."
Si Xu felt that things would definitely develop in a worse direction.
Sure enough, Lu Yu continued: "After several major forces discussed, they sent their own ability users to explore the underwater palace. What they could find depended on their own strength. Several major forces worked together and finally blasted open the stone door of the palace. A group of ability users entered. They saw the unknown energy crystals that all countries dreamed of. It was said that there were a lot of them. They scrambled for them frantically, all wanting to grab more unknown energy crystals for their own forces. The result of the fierce competition was fighting..."
"After so many years of research, we all know that this kind of unknown energy crystal is very stable and generally won't have any problems. But the unknown energy crystal in the palace had a problem. The crystal exploded, and countless unknown energy crystals exploded! Exploded!! None of the ability users in the palace survived, and those who had already come out were affected by the vortex of the explosion. Some disappeared, some were seriously injured, and some couldn't withstand the energy radiation value at that moment and exploded on the spot..."
Lu Jiu didn't quite know what the unknown energy radiation was like, but Ke Si knew it clearly. He had been in the radiation and witnessed the tragic situation of the city with his own eyes. This unknown energy was very dangerous!
Si Xu asked, "How much crystals are needed to measure the radiation level in the training room?"
Lu Yu pinched out his cigarette, "One, we only have one in total."
Si Xu already understood the level of radiation pollution in the ocean - it's hard to imagine!
Lu Yu paused and added, "Don't think it's too little. There are only a few in the world now. We can get one, and we are already envious of our neighbors."
Si Xu nodded, "Did any of our people suffer casualties?"
Speaking of this, Lu Yu wanted to laugh, "The enhanced people we sent to protect the participants are Zang Ye and Bai Zhixing. One of them is a bear and the other is a human. Who do you think has the ability to be used in the sea?"
Si Xu raised his eyebrows, "So?"
"So our minister decided to wait and see and not get involved. The purpose of sending Zang Ye and Bai Zhixing over was to protect the safety of the participants. No one expected that they would steal things when they went there. We thought it was a problem that could be solved with money, but in the end we had to rely on force. We don't have many enhanced people, and each of them is very valuable. We can't compare with those big forces who send out a dozen super-powered people at any time. We can compete in terms of financial resources, but we can't afford to compete in terms of numbers of enhanced people for the time being."
Fortunately, they couldn't afford it. Those who could afford it died in the sea. Lu Yu marveled at the minister's wisdom and bravery countless times.
While they were talking, the strange things on the other side had been transported to the truck, and the ground was being cleaned by a sprinkler truck. After they left, there would be no trace left here, and the witnesses would not mention it to the outside world. They would keep what happened tonight to themselves and try their best to maintain the most superficial peace in the scientific world.
Ru Jiu couldn't wait to go home to take a shower and change clothes. When Lu Yu and the others left, Ru Jiu couldn't help but say a few more words.
"Captain Lu, is there a resettlement plan for coastal cities?"
Lu Yu said, "We are far away from the dangerous waters, so we haven't reached that stage yet. Now we only have a sea ban."
Lu Jiu: "If it really comes to that, it will be too late to resettle them. It's better to make plans early."
Lu Yu felt that Lu Jiu was too simple. Unless it was a matter of life and death, how could coastal cities move casually?
"Okay, you've worked hard tonight. Si Xu can apply for reimbursement of the fruit wine money."
Si Xu: "No need."
Lu Jiu knew that Lu Yu didn't listen. "Marine life has mutated. It's too early for them to come ashore."
Lu Yu and several staff members who were about to leave stopped. They were all insiders, and they were basically doing the aftermath.
The possibility of marine life coming ashore is just speculation at present. No one can be sure that this will happen. Even if marine life is photographed running onto the beach, it will go back into the sea after a circle. They still cannot leave the ocean.
Of course, if the monster tonight really came from the sea, this speculation may be confirmed.
Rujiu said: "The sea water has been polluted. Now it is affecting marine life. Will it affect humans in the future?"
Lu Yu said seriously: "We have not found any impact on humans so far."
Rujiu spread his hands, "Just like you didn't realize that the crystals would explode, but they still exploded."
Lu Yu: "..."
Lu Yu stared at Rujiu, his expression becoming more and more serious, "Do you have any evidence?"
Rujiu: "No."
Lu Yu: "Then how should I report it? Just based on your guess?"
Rujiu thought for a while, "Is it okay to rely on the fact that the seafood I caught is the most ferocious?"
Lu Yu: "The sea is banned now, and seafood may be banned in a while. Sell all the seafood in your hands as soon as possible." Rujiu
: "..."
Damn! If seafood is banned, won't his shop have to close down? !
Lu Jiu has said everything he should say. Whether they listen or not is their business. Lu Jiu can't control it.
Lu Jiu has been enduring till now and it is his limit. He wants to close the shop immediately and go home to take a shower and change clothes. He can't even enter the shop now. He is afraid that the whole shop will stink up. How can he eat in the shop then?
Si Xu saw that he was in such a dilemma, "Do you trust me?" "
Of course." Lu Jiu didn't even think about it.
"Since you trust me, you go back first. I'll wait until all the customers leave, then I'll close the store and lock the door for you."
Lu Jiu thought this was a very good idea, so he handed the store over to Si Xu decisively and rode home. Before leaving, he reminded Si Xu to finish his dinner and not waste it, and put his dinner in the refrigerator for tomorrow.
He couldn't lose magic points for wasting ingredients anymore, as he was already on the verge of death.
That night, the customers who watched the sci-fi scene but couldn't say anything felt uncomfortable, and they all posted their feelings and updates at the same time:
the world view is collapsing and being reshaped...
When asked about the reason, there was no follow-up.
