"The second phase of the task actually changed to us having to form a team... Isn't this very troublesome?" The six tourists who gathered again in the high-level conference room also felt a little dissatisfied at this moment.
Everyone, including Yin Xiu, knows that trust among tourists is actually both easy and difficult to gain. If you enter together when you enter, it will be easy to form a natural alliance of camps, but if you speak again after being silent for a long time in the scene, you will definitely be suspected of having ulterior motives.
"You think...will those tourists also want to join our mission?" Shi Yuluan made a guess.
"That would save us a little trouble, but even if there is a mission, they will probably consider us more." Afilik said, "Yin Xiu, what do you think?"
"Me? I don't think there's anything. We inspected them before, and now they inspect us. Their position has reversed. Can't you just sit still?" Yin Xiu's face remained calm, but she said sarcastically.
"Why do you talk like that?" Efelik frowned, "It's just an exchange of opinions."
"Because we were unable to contact other tourists during the first phase of the mission, what we have to think about now is how to show sincerity. Haven't you guys even thought about this clearly? Just discussing it here will not yield any results. . If you can't put forward more constructive suggestions, then I am still willing to spend my time meeting those tourists." Yin Xiu stood up.
"Are you leaving now?" Li Zhu asked.
"Do we have to wait until their last chance to trust us has disappeared before we set off?"
Yin Xiu waved her hand, opened the door and walked out of the house.
He was a little impatient. These "teammates" had already made some judgments in his mind. Shi Yuluan and Alex were relatively high-level tourists among them, but Li Zhu and the other three were just idiots in his opinion. The judgment of the situation is simply not sharp enough.
After the second phase of the mission came out, it became clear that the teams were actually being re-divided. And this task actually revealed that the goals of the six companies on the investor's side are actually different, so they are not necessarily teammates.
Don't these people realize it yet? They also gathered together for another meeting - although Yin Xiu could have pretended not to know and deceived more information, his pride did not allow him to do so.
It just depends on when these people realize it.
Yin Xiu walked back to her room with her pockets in her pockets, took out her cell phone and dialed Yin He's number.
"Uncle Yin?"
"How did things go?"
"The secret police have informed us that many cults of varying degrees have infiltrated this base. We don't yet understand their purpose of coming here in such a concentration, but according to the secret police, what they have done has triggered an internal counterattack. According to the regulations, we can carry out lethal counterattacks and active attacks against those who have been confirmed as cultists."
"Gee...that means killing people. How are you feeling? Are you stressed?"
"No." Yin He replied.
Yin Xiu was very satisfied: "Then, the private security team of Chenfeng Group will be handed over to you. It must not affect the shooting, and control public opinion. If there is any mistake, blame it on the cultists. The base's The plan must not be compromised.”
"Of course, Uncle Yin." Yin He replied, "I am very aware of the importance of this to the group. It is undeniable that they must have taken a fancy to the resources of a large number of art workers here. If possible, I hope to Conduct a battle to lure the snake out of its hole."
"Luring the snake out of its hole?"
"Mr. Beimuda's live broadcast has been going on for many days, and almost half of the base has been transferred. Two units of the series have been filmed, and the general tone has been formed. As for the variety show, we should also shoot the fourth episode. The filming of the third phase has been completed. Now is a good time to bring together the three directors and key players."
"Gather together? Then their safety must be ensured. If something goes wrong because of our approach, we will inevitably bear the blame in the end."
"Don't worry, Uncle Yin, I can definitely make arrangements here. Since the secret police has given this power... let these cultists become the stepping stones for our development."

Good omen, pendulum, disaster, idea... Actually, Lu Ning is still a little curious about why the distribution center uses these terms.
For distribution centers, only some proper nouns in the scene will use the names in the scene, and the rest will be explained in a way that tourists can easily understand. In other words, any special words that appear in the task that are not currently understood can be considered to be the title of the scene itself.
However, Lu Ning has never heard of these titles from anyone yet. Neither the message from the harbor nor the information learned from Lan Tu or the knowledge about the mantra mentioned this. She didn't know if she had missed any important information source.
She stopped.
Looking at the convenience store, she will certainly not forget this place she has seen before. Fortunately, this convenience store will not be as difficult to find as those doors to other worlds. It is located in the base and has not disappeared. The unmanned convenience store still looks clean and tidy now, but since it was specially mentioned by the distribution center, there must be something weird inside.
After Lu Ning thought for a moment, she walked into the store.
The space inside the store is actually not too small. There are neat shelves and display cabinets filled with fresh pastries, snacks, drinks and other items. There are also some batteries, scissors and the like on the row of small shelves closest to the wall. articles for daily use. Two coffee machines and an ice cream machine are located near the entrance of the store. As a convenience store, it already provides enough selection.
But strangely, there is no one here.
The Sight Convenience Store is located in District 8, not very far from the north entrance. There are many people visiting just across the street, but it is so quiet here that it seems like many people have deliberately avoided it. Although there is a reason why most houses on this street are not open, it is not normal that there is no one there.
At this moment, Lu Ning heard the sound of the store door being pushed open behind her.
"I didn't expect that someone had already arrived first."
Lu Ning turned around and saw that it was Chen Anhui.
In the past few days, he occasionally exchanged information with Lu Ning, Ke Daolin and An Youxi, but most of them were of little use. After the fan group lost one person, they acted more cautiously, and relatively less effective information was available. However, Lu Ning wouldn't believe it if they ran like this without coming into contact with a few mantras, but it was never mentioned in the information exchange.
"Mr. Chen." Lu Ning nodded slightly to him.
"Have you released the second phase of your mission? I just saw the names related to us. Now we have each gone to see if the familiar names are really the place in the past."
"You mean, this place is a place you have experienced before?" Lu Ning thought for a moment before understanding what Chen Anhui meant.
"The Sight Convenience Store is the place that appeared in a scene from "The Decameron" that I experienced." Chen Anhui put his hands in his pockets and walked in, looking around. "Although the location has changed a bit, both the decoration style and the Everything on the shelves still retains its original character.”
"What's mysterious about this place?" Lu Ning asked.
"It's not mysterious, it's just very deadly." Chen Anhui smiled bitterly, "We lost three tourists here, and it was only through the lives of three people that we figured out what the situation was like here."
Lu Ning felt that she heard what Chen Anhui meant and didn't take it seriously: "Then, if you can tell me this information, I will also give you some information in exchange."
"Well, I think those things that we have always hidden are things that each of us attaches more importance to, so it doesn't hurt to let me talk about it first." Chen Anhui picked up a beautifully packaged cake from the shelf, "Look at everything in the convenience store. , will appear normal within the 'line of sight'. Or more broadly speaking, human observation under any circumstances will cause them to show a normal state, and it is absolutely impossible to see what their essence is."
"In other words... it's normal as long as someone is watching?" Lu Ning glanced at it.
"Yes, so ordinary visual perception can never verify what is wrong with these things. Only in places that are out of reach of all eyes will they change back to their original appearance. We don't know what that is, maybe now The piece of bread in my hand is a wriggling mass of carrion, or a living insect, or even an internal organ of the human body... Of course, it is being watched by us, so it is in a safe state."
"But most of the things sold in this place are food and drink." Lu Ning looked around.
"Yes, if people who don't understand eat the things here, they will transform back into their original form after they are out of sight. This is not an instant process, there will be a delay of about five or six minutes, so it can be said to be impossible to prevent. The reason why we know this truth is because the last companion who died was an experienced doctor. He didn't even eat anything. He just got some food crumbs when he looked at the corpse of his companion. Those crumbs were long. After time left our sight and returned to his original form, he was infected with a deadly poison."
Chen Anhui took the bread to the automatic checkout machine, scanned the code, paid, and then threw the bread into the trash can at the door.
"This mission is easy for those who know it, but for those who don't know it, it is a trap with hidden murderous intent. Just throw away the items you buy. Anyway, we are not ordered to use the items purchased here. "
"I see...Thank you." Lu Ning nodded. What she exchanged was the information Ke Daolin told about the dismantling army. This was undoubtedly a member of that group of destructive organizations. After learning about their course of action, Chen Anhui must have some countermeasures.
After Chen Anhui learned this information, he nodded and thanked and walked out of the store. After Lu Ning waited for him to leave, she turned and looked at the shelves again.
Although Chen Anhui told what he knew in the past, who knows whether it is true? The distribution center may make slight modifications to many things, and their nature will be significantly changed. The same is true here at the Sight Convenience Store. Lu Ning is still not sure whether everything is as Chen Anhui said. His behavior, buying something casually and throwing it away immediately is indeed a feasible method, but this kind of completing tasks for the sake of completing tasks is not always encouraged by the distribution center.
Everyone's fragmented past here has not been mentioned in full. Among the people Lu Ning has met, Tang Yuexin, Lu Ying, Wu Que, Jaze and even Lan Tu have not been specifically mentioned. Instead, they are indirectly related to Aurora. Being a nominated target in the mission at least shows that from the point of view of the distribution center, "Aurora" is more important in this scene than Lu Ning's other past ones. The same is true for Chen Anhui. The first place he came to was the Sight Convenience Store. Maybe the only one he knew was the Sight Convenience Store. Is it really right to treat such a clue so carelessly?
At this time, Lu Ning's cell phone suddenly rang. She touched it and saw an unfamiliar number. After a moment of hesitation, she answered.
There was a male voice inside: "Hello, is this Lu Ning?"
"it's me."
"Nice to meet you. Sorry to bother you, Ms. Lu Ning. Let me introduce myself first. I am the chairman of Chenfeng Group's Green Pine Mountain Film and Television Base. My name is Yin Xiu."
Yin Xiu has already locked in a list of tourists. He knew very well that his group of tourists would come into contact with other tourists sooner or later, but he didn't know whether it would be as an enemy or a friendly force. On this list were the tourists he had observed in these days who were more active and seemed to have discovered something. If you want to seize resources, start with these people.
"Chenfeng Group? I remember that the person in charge of Chenfeng Group is Yin He, right? Why did another chairman call me suddenly?"
"Because we are all crows, Ms. Lu Ning." Yin Xiu smiled, "I'm sure I was the first one among the six to call you. If you want, we can also meet."
"It's strange, you didn't even show up before this." Lu Ning said.
"We are restricted and cannot be seen through by you until you complete the first phase of the mission. Therefore, we can only hide and everything will be handled by the person in charge. However, our person in charge is also smart and capable. I I think you must have experienced it. Now, after this restriction is lifted, I will immediately start to contact you. Lu Ning, I am now formally raising this question to you - are you willing to join the Chenfeng Group camp? "
"Tourists don't choose any camp to join at will, you understand, right?" Lu Ning said.
"Of course I know, so I will explain to you the background of Chenfeng Group. I don't know what the goals of the other five companies are. I can only say... our goals and everyone's tasks should be consistent."
