Late at night, the only sound in the quiet apartment was the rapid typing of the keyboard.
The dim blue light from the monitor illuminated a focused and solemn face - Si Lan hacked into his boss' computer to check some information.
The full promotion of sports watches is an inevitable plan. This electronic product has undergone many clinical trials, with a serious bug incidence rate of less than 1%, and only harmless bugs occasionally appear.
However, the top leaders deliberately concealed and ignored the 2% mortality rate. 2% may not seem high, but the statistical base is small.
He found the folder hidden by his boss, copied it to a USB drive, and then cleaned up all the operation paths.
Finally, the hidden folder was cut to his laptop.
High school students accounted for half of the 2% of deaths.
He clicked to open the secretly signed agreement, his face as cold as frost and snow.
At this time, the phone vibrates, indicating that a new WeChat message has been received.
[Miaomiao]: I am going to carry out a new mission. I will contact you when I come out.
This new information was like a spring breeze, melting Si Lan's frost. He smiled, his eyes full of expectation and excitement.
[SI]: I wish you all the best ^ω^
The plan to wear sports watches to work has been implemented in government agencies.
All teams in the Ghost Story Investigation Department wore sports watches to perform the cracking mission, including the blue team and the pink team who caught the earliest high-speed train.
Sports watches can monitor their emotional fluctuations, heart rate and physical function data in real time, helping them to determine whether they are suffering from mental pollution.
On the high-speed train, the members of the blue team and the pink team were thinking about the functions of sports watches. After getting off the high-speed train, the local unit sent two vans to pick them up.
"What's the current situation in Qinyan Town?" Gao Ying, sitting in the passenger seat, asked the neighborhood committee uncle who was in charge of driving.
When Qinyan Town was mentioned, the uncle's face wrinkled. "It's still the same. Tourists and residents keep going in to earn rewards, but no one who comes out gets any. We also have to be on guard against them having mental problems. Anyway, we're so busy."
“Has the scope of the marking been expanded?”
"Yes!" The uncle patted the steering wheel excitedly. "Originally, it circled the entire Qinyan Town - it's actually not that big. The tourist area is from the beginning to the end of the street. The developer will do it to attract many tourists. Now the marking area has been expanded to the neighborhoods where local residents live, which are undeveloped areas."
"Does it also belong to Qinyan Town?"
"belong."
The two vans drove to Qinyan Town along the fastest route.
The atmosphere in the car was too solemn, so the uncle turned on the radio to listen to the local radio station.
"The radio station mentioned it in the original rules." The uncle mentioned casually.
"Do you remember the original rules?"
"I can't remember it all. It's too long. We old guys can't remember as long as young people."
The situation was not optimistic. Gao Ying, with a worried look on her face, told the team members in the back seat, "We are approaching Qinyan Town. Please be alert and report anything wrong on the road, even the slightest thing."
The uncle was amazed at their professionalism.
"...The latest news is that the ghost story area mark of the tourist attraction Qinyan Town has not disappeared, and there is a trend of expansion. In response, the Tourism Bureau and the Cultural Bureau issued a ban, prohibiting tourists and non-local residents from entering Qinyan Town. The prohibited area includes..."
The voices broadcast on the radio calmed everyone's uneasy mood a little.
"...The local traffic police in Qinyan Town have blocked the entrances and exits of Shangyun Expressway and prohibited people from stopping, stopping, stopping, stopping%@α#..."
A rustling noise interrupted the broadcast.
The uncle laughed and said, "There are many mountains and trees here, which will affect the signal."
Gao Ying looked out of the car window and vaguely saw a reddish halo in the distance.
"Cars, cars ...
The radio was noisy.
The uncle reached out to turn off the radio.
"parking."
"Ah?" The uncle retracted his hand, thinking he had heard it wrong.
"Stop the car immediately!" Gao Ying's stern tone left no room for doubt. "The radio has been affected. The scope of the field of ghost stories is beyond your understanding."
"What? But there are still five kilometers to go!" Despite saying that, the uncle was still scared and stopped the car.
The second van following behind also stopped.
The roadside sign did say that it was five kilometers away from Qinyan Town. However, there was another sign of the same color below the sign.
"Uncle, drive to the sign and take a look."
"Oh oh." He made a half circle and drove closer to the brand new sign.
Unexpectedly, the horrifying content made them pale.
Qinyan County
The entire length of Shangyun Expressway is 319 kilometers, and the straight one-way expressway exit reaches Qinyan Town.
During the peak season for infectious diseases, please do not stop your car easily and stay away from strangers.
If you need emergency help, please dial: 120
"There wasn't that sign below before!" The uncle shuddered as if he had seen a ghost. "I'm sure there wasn't! I've been to Qinyan Town many times!"
Gao Ying instructed one of the team members to contact the pink team.
She suggested to the uncle: "While we are not deeply involved, you can get off the car and go back immediately."
The uncle hesitated and then looked bitter. "Girl, I want to go back too, but there's no one here and it's on the highway, I..."
Gao Ying didn't bother to talk too much with him: "Do you choose to leave immediately, or choose to enter the scope of the strange story area with us? Any section of the road ahead may be part of the strange story area."
The uncle stopped talking and got off the car immediately.
The pink team also asked the driver to get off the car.
The two uncles walked back tremblingly, shoulder to shoulder.
Gao Ying climbed into the driver's seat and drove the car herself.
The two vans continued to move forward, driving very slowly and not complying with traffic regulations for the highway.
There was a loose cordon at the highway exit, but no traffic police were seen.
There was a sign hanging on the blockade, attracting two vans to approach.
Warning! The road leading to Qinyan Town has been blocked. Please do not approach the blockade, otherwise you will be at your own risk!
Qinyan Town has been closed, please turn around if you are visiting. Drive carefully and stay away from strangers.
If you experience high fever, pain, or skin burning, please seek medical attention as soon as possible. If you need emergency treatment, please dial: 120
"Captain, the blockade is loose, and it's obvious that a car has forcefully driven through."
“It’s strange that there’s no traffic police on duty.”
Gao Ying decided to drive over as well. "Everyone, sit tight and hold on tight."
Two vans, one in front and one behind, ran over the collapsed blockade.
After getting off the highway, there is a brand new sign on the roadside less than 100 meters before the exit:
You are three kilometers away from Qinyan Town.
Recently, there have been a number of criminals pretending to be scalpers. Please remember that no tickets are required for the scenic spot, and drivers should try to avoid getting off the bus and beware of strangers approaching.
There are police patrolling outside the scenic area. If you find any suspicious persons, please call the duty room: 23XXXXXX.
The black Song font is cold and ruthless.
"...the local police have been stationed outside Qinyan Town, strictly preventing tourists from entering in in in in in in #*%@...coming...in in in in in #%*@...new friends..."
Gao Ying turned off the radio solemnly.
There are still three brand new signboards on the road to Qinyan Town. The content is different, but they all remind visitors to be wary of strangers and not to get off the bus.
Finally, they arrived at the outskirts of Qinyan Town and saw that there was no one under the huge parasols, only parked police cars and auxiliary police motorcycles.
The sun was very strong and the temperature was high. The two teams parked the van under the shade of a tree. There was no one around, and they seemed to have come to a place where no one could survive.
"Why is there no one left to pick us up?" The female team member wearing glasses was uneasy.
"Captain, what do we do now?"
"Wait, don't get off the car, take a rest if you need to."
The pink team in the van next door did not get off the car either.
Gao Ying called Lu Xingyang, told him the outrageous situation at the scene, and demanded that he must get all the rules of Qinyan Town.
Half an hour later, Lu Xingyang sent a photo.
The first photo, capturing the handwritten record of the rules, is labeled “First Edition.”
Dear tourists, welcome to the beautiful Qinyan Town. The local tourism bureau welcomes you! To ensure your travel safety, please abide by the following travel rules:
1. The temperature has risen recently. It is recommended that you stay indoors, listen to radio programs, and pay attention to weather reports to prevent heatstroke.
2. The local weather station is channel 1.
…
5. The scenery of Qinyan Town is more beautiful at night. You are welcome to visit.
6. Pay attention to your personal safety during the visit, be wary of strangers approaching you, do not trust strangers easily, and do not visit places with a lot of red.
7. If you encounter an area with a lot of red, please leave immediately and do not stay.
…
[Lu Ke]: As for the latest rules, the person in charge of the handover said that each day’s rules are different from the previous day’s. It is recommended that you follow the current new rules.
Gao Ying sighed helplessly. "We can't go out during the day, let's wait in the car until night."
It is now past 1pm, and there are still five to six hours before dark.
The team members in the car took turns in groups of two, and the others took the opportunity to close their eyes and rest. The surroundings were eerily quiet, and they did not see any tourists escaping the scenic area.
At around 2 p.m., the two groups saw from a distance an auxiliary police officer running out from under the shade of the trees on the opposite side.
She was wearing a police hat, a blue uniform and a fluorescent vest, and she waved in their direction, apparently asking them to turn around.
"She looked very anxious."
"Why didn't she come over to inform us?"
Gao Ying stared at the female auxiliary police officer opposite her and gripped the steering wheel tightly.
The female auxiliary police officer jumped up anxiously and made exaggerated mouth shapes: Run!
Soon, Gao Ying saw a patch of blood behind the female auxiliary police officer.
"Ah—help—"
The sound of screams was faint.
She watched the female auxiliary police officer being dragged away by the blood-red color.
Gao Ying's face turned pale. "Don't sleep, there's a murder outside, be alert outside the car!"
The sun sets, night falls, and the scorching heat subsides.
Only then did the two teams dare to get off the bus.
The pink team's "Lolita" captain, who suffers from dwarfism, asked Gao Ying: "Are we going into Qinyan Town?"
"Go ahead, this is our mission." Gao Ying was firm.
There is a notice posted at the entrance of the scenic area, written in black and white.
The content of the rules was the same as the first version that Lu Xingyang sent her, and was signed by the Qinyan County Tourism Bureau.
The two teams walked into Qinyan Town anxiously.
Not far away, there was another notice posted on the lamppost:
Recently, a highly contagious disease has spread in our town. Please do not gather, do not contact strangers, and pay attention to the following matters:
1. The scenic spot has not notified the epidemic prevention center. If you find someone claiming to be a staff member of the epidemic prevention center, please do not pay attention to or contact them and leave immediately.
2. Due to a shortage of manpower, the neighborhood committee and the police are doing cleaning work in the scenic area. If you see someone cleaning up dirt and removing odors, please do not disturb them and take a detour.
3. If you experience high fever, body pain, auditory hallucinations, or skin burning sensations, please notify the patrolling auxiliary police immediately and they will take you to the doctor immediately.
…
Sincerely, the neighborhood committee and the police station
Occasionally, running shadows flashed across the town.
"We should not be exposed to the outdoors for a long time and find a safe indoor base as soon as possible," said Gao Ying.
Captain "Lolita" had no objection.
The two teams continued to move forward for hundreds of meters and found another notice posted on the base of the sculpture on the other side:
Recently, a highly contagious disease has spread in our town. Please do not gather, do not contact strangers, and pay attention to the following matters:
1. Our center has effectively controlled the epidemic in the scenic area. In order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, local residents and tourists are requested to go to the Sculpture Square for blood tests in an orderly manner.
2. The temporary inspection area of the Sculpture Square is open from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
3. The scenic area does not arrange auxiliary police patrols, nor does it arrange police officers and neighborhood committee staff to be stationed. If you find anyone claiming to be in the above positions, please do not pay attention to or contact them and leave immediately.
…
Sincerely, Qinyan Epidemic Prevention Center
The evening breeze brought a faint smell of blood, and they shuddered.
