Chapter 98

It was past one in the middle of the night when Meng Ziqiu woke up from his dream. He opened his eyes and saw his familiar bedroom. He stretched out his hand to the side and the mobile phone issued by the Department came into his hand. He made several instant messaging calls, and half of the people on the other end of the phone were crying and shouting - they thought the overtime was over, but in fact they had to work more in the middle of the night. It was simply insane and tragic.

Meng Ziqiu was unmoved: "Wake up, it's time to get up and work overtime."

So in the middle of the night, he called everyone who could handle incidents related to disasters and beasts one by one, and they split into three groups. One group went to the nearest police station to look for files and information, one group went to conduct on-site surveys, and another group went to retrieve physical evidence and surviving witnesses.

While they were busy here, the phone at Wutong Town Police Station kept ringing.

Wei Ziming has gained a lot of fans through live broadcasts over the past few years. When he was doing offline horror broadcasts, there were more than 20,000 people online in the live broadcast room. Because of the location of his equipment, in addition to witnessing the entire process of his danger, everyone also witnessed the inhuman face behind him.

If at first the fans in the live broadcast room thought that Wei Ziming had hired someone to deliberately create a live broadcast effect, then when he later jumped out of the window in panic and ran away, and asked them for help while escaping to call the police, it was not a live broadcast effect, but a live broadcast accident.

This sudden live broadcast accident not only attracted more people to the live broadcast room, but also made more people pay attention to the fact that the live broadcast room was suddenly closed at an extremely dangerous time.

Within two hours of the incident, this supernatural event, which seemed a bit bizarre to ordinary people, began to spread wildly on various platforms.

There were people who came to watch the excitement, people who came to see the incident, and people who really wanted to help... all kinds of people were mixed together. Coupled with the screenshots that had been uploaded many times in the live broadcast room and were already a bit blurry, this incident quickly became the last of the hot searches.

Therefore, the team in charge of network-related matters, who had already fallen asleep, could only resign themselves to working overtime in the middle of the night with dark circles under their eyes and drowsiness from lack of sleep, and with resentment comparable to that of the King of Ghosts.

So many people who were awake in the middle of the night found that this topic, which was becoming increasingly popular, had been 404ed while they were browsing.

But as everyone knows, people who surf the Internet are 90 kilograms rebellious out of a hundred kilograms of body weight. The more they are prohibited, the more rebellious they become.

So, the topic evolved from #A well-known anchor encountered danger during offline live broadcast# to #The secrets of abandoned community revealed, with pictures and truth#. After this topic exploded, it became #Inventory of doubts about live broadcast accidents#. After the word "live broadcast" was temporarily banned, it evolved into various aliases, with the main theme of endless life.

Alien Network Department: "..."

That’s enough!

After a group of people discussed for ten minutes, they unanimously decided to divert the trouble to the east.

So, the netizens who couldn’t sleep at night and were dedicated to fighting against 404 suddenly found that there were many new things on the hot searches: for example, an official in a certain place was dismissed for corruption; a certain popular star had a night out with a certain young actor; a certain company was fined a huge amount for counterfeiting products...

The cases and some of the news that have been confirmed by the Internet Department are being sold off for free. Each one is more exciting and explosive than the last. There is a beginning, a middle, a transition, a climax and even a reversal. Chat records, recordings, photos, videos and other graphic evidence are presented one after another, in an effort to make everyone indulge in eating melons and not pay attention to the topic of 404.

Although this method is not very ethical, it is more effective than tough control of comments. Although the live broadcast of suspected real supernatural phenomena is quite attractive, there are only two screenshots over and over again. If a big fuss is made, it will feel like hype. In addition, the anchor who was suspected to be in danger reported that he was safe at around 8 or 9 o'clock the next day, the heat of this matter dropped even faster.

In Wei Ziming's fan group, everyone had been worried, and only after seeing him report that he was safe did they all breathe a sigh of relief.

[This offline live broadcast is too scary... I hope nothing serious will happen to the live broadcast in two days. 】

[I am so pissed! Why are there so many idiots on the Internet! I already said that these are screenshots I took while watching a live broadcast, not AI-generated ones to attract attention. You don’t understand what I am saying, right?!

[Are you saying that we are colluding with the hype? Please, use your brain to think about it, okay? Who is the one who is hyping and panicking in the live broadcast room and begging fans to call the police? Making a false report is a violation of public security management order and will result in detention and fines! ]

[At least hundreds of us called the police at the same time. If it was a fake, Teacher Juan would have been in jail a long time ago.

…

There was a great uproar in Wei Ziming's fan group, but he now had no time to appease those fans who had called the police for him and were engaged in verbal battles online and felt wronged, because he was now staring into the eyes of a monster corpse that looked like a cow.

Several fully armed men were staring at him closely.

"Name."

"Wei Ziming."

"Age?"

"Twenty-six."

"Why do you suddenly want to go to the abandoned community on Mount Tai?"

…

When the person in front of him asked, Wei Ziming answered honestly. When asked how he escaped from the monster and survived until the Buyehou came to rescue him, Wei Ziming replied——

“Just pick a spot based on your instinct and run as fast as you can.”

The person who questioned him: "...You are really lucky."

After a round of detailed questioning, the polygraph tag attached to Wei Ziming remained silent, proving that everything he said was true.

The person who questioned him was simply incredulous: "We set up an ambushes array 100 meters in front of the Land of Happiness and sealed the gate. You said you walked in directly and the door collapsed as soon as you pushed it... Although what you said was not a lie, it is really outrageous."

They had just patrolled all the locations recorded in the [Special Anomaly Files] across the country two months ago, and had all the damaged seals reinforced a second time. It didn't make sense that their spiritual power would be exhausted so quickly.

The person who was speaking pulled out a piece of paper from a blue folder and pushed it in front of Wei Ziming: "Is this what the gate you saw looked like?"

Wei Ziming looked down and saw a brand new steel gate on the printed color picture.

Wei Ziming: “……?”

After trying to identify it, he shook his head and said, "It looks very similar to the door in the picture, but when I went there, it was covered with rust, and the lock was so rusty that the eye of the lock was almost invisible."

The person who showed him the picture looked at another person standing a little further away, and both of them were filled with surprise.

There is a seal specially put up on the gate of the abandoned community Happy Land. Theoretically, as long as the seal is not damaged, the door will always remain brand new. Only if the seal is damaged will the gate gradually rust in the wind and sun.

But according to Wei Ziming, to have rusted to this extent, the town seal must have been damaged for at least a year.

The problem with the location in [Special Anomaly Files] was already a big deal, and now it seems... it seems to be bigger than they imagined.

The person who was checking Rhino's body suddenly started to vibrate his cell phone. He quickly took out the phone and answered it. Suddenly, there was a rapid gasp from the other end of the line, as if someone was running wildly and had difficulty breathing. Apart from the gasps, the other end was terribly silent.

"The seal of Fei...southeast direction, damage...the alien beast is not——"

The sound suddenly stopped, and then the communication was disconnected.

I called back immediately, but got a busy tone.

Something happened.

Everyone in this room realizes this.

There is a huge difference in spiritual energy between the inner and outer worlds. The outer world is already short of manpower, and the first ten special teams are fighting fires all over the country. The teams after the tenth are stationed in various provinces and cities.

The garrison in Chongming City was the 14th team of the special forces, which had a total of ten people. Apart from two people who took away Xiqu's corpse and the eyewitness Wei Ziming, and then questioned and registered him, the remaining eight people carried various protective gear to the Land of Happiness to reinforce the town seal.

For safety reasons, they agreed to only reinforce the seal on the gate and evacuate immediately after the reinforcement, regardless of the situation inside.

It may involve a long-term seal on Fei, which is far beyond their level of ability to handle. The best solution is to urgently call for the first ten teams of the special forces to come and investigate. They just need to ensure that the problem does not expand further before the first ten teams arrive to investigate, and will not endanger the lives of the people around them.

Similarly, since they were a garrison team, the most common items in their branch were protective formations and spells, and they had almost cleared out more than half of the branch's inventory before leaving... Not to mention reinforcing the seal, even if they had to rebuild a seal, they wouldn't have been in such danger.

After the abrupt end of the unknown phone call, the expressions of the two people who stayed behind in the branch office became terribly serious. Wei Ziming, who was sitting on the chair, shrank his neck and missed the floor of the teahouse where he had just stayed - it was really safe to stay in that teahouse, and there was hot tea to drink!

Woohoo, I miss the first day of the big boss!

Wei Ziming was a little scared but still relaxed. However, the two members of the Special Team 14 who knew the inside story looked even uglier because they couldn't contact any of the other eight teammates. They could make phone calls and send notes, but the person on the other end was always disconnected.

The situation was beginning to get out of their control. Seeing this, the person who questioned Wei Ziming did not delay any longer. He directly took out an exquisitely carved array plate from his arms, then spread his palms and let blood fall on the center of the plate. This was a prop activated when the garrison team encountered a life-and-death crisis. The array plate with blood as the medium would be directly connected to the headquarters. By analogy, it was equivalent to the 800-li express in ancient times.

The bronze array began to emit a blood-red glow after being stained with blood. However, when there was only a quarter of blood left in the central pit, the array suddenly went out, as if it had been strangled by some invisible object.

Inside the headquarters of the Beijing Municipal Abnormal Affairs Bureau, the piercing alarm sounded a few times quickly before suddenly disappearing. On the electronic light screen that occupied an entire wall, the color of Chongming City, which was originally green, suddenly began to flash and change, yellow, orange, red... and finally froze into a strange purple.

Purple——[Special Abnormal File]: Abnormality has occurred in the area.
