"I said, don't you think anything is wrong?"
The clerk sitting at the workstation was facing the screen. He had been looking at the small frame on the screen for more than ten minutes, and there was no change in the picture.
If it weren't for the time in the corner that was still running, the civilian staff would have doubted whether they were watching a still picture.
When his colleague heard the question, he looked away from him and stared at the screen for a while.
After a while, his colleague said, "It's no problem, isn't this normal operation?"
The clerk interjected, "No, I just find it weird because it's so normal."
Although I would like to have all the surveillance cameras at 360 degrees, in fact, E-1’s [Listening Old Man] can tolerate both the front and side angles. If the screen is too large, the screen will be blurred and everything will be blurred. Unable to monitor.
This also led to the fact that the civil servants could only look at the frontal face of [Listening Old Man] and his open and closed mouth.
The pen of the civil servant who recorded perfect lip reading has been hanging on the paper for a long time. He really can't understand what [listening old man] is saying today.
No, shouldn't he usually retell the stories told to him by people who have been there before? What's going on today?
The normal and abnormal pictures began to freeze. After waiting patiently for a long time, the civilian staff decided to report the abnormality and ask the superiors to find someone to go to the E-1 gate to take a look.
Even if it’s not yet time to send someone alive to check in, E-1 is not a dangerous existence, but in order to prevent chain reactions, we still need to find someone——
The civilian employee looked at the screen and picked up the receiver to press a certain number. He pressed his head and saw the old man standing up on the screen of E-1 out of the corner of his eye.
Civilian:?
Civilian:! ! !
No, don’t panic, quickly recall what the E-1 management instructions say!
During brainstorming, the civilian staff quickly pulled out E-1 management instructions that they had never used before from the corner of their memory.
Then the clerical staff discovered that there was absolutely no mention of the [listening old man] standing up.
Theoretically, [Old Man Listening] would sit there and not run out.
The thought of looking at the work manual flashed past, but in the end the clerk grabbed the phone. He pressed his fingers quickly blindly, glanced at the screen, and took a breath after the call was connected.
"Leader, I want to report to you, I found E——"
Before the civilian officer could finish his words, a piercing alarm sounded, interrupting his words.
Civilian: Ah this.
The people around him, including him, pushed their stools very skillfully, shrank down the table, took paper and pen, and started writing a suicide note under the light of a flashlight.
The civilian staff struggled for a moment, grabbed the phone cord and hid.
He didn't write a suicide note, because he wrote one yesterday and didn't write a new one before he had time to burn it.
The civilian staff listened as the sound outside changed from an alarm to a human voice announcement, specifying which room on which floor the ghost had escaped from and that someone had been sent to deal with it.
With this voice, the civilian staff tremblingly explained the strangeness of E-1.
The person on the other end of the phone told him to calm down and send someone to check after the chaos was over.
Shouldn't there be any strange reaction? Hanging up the phone, the clerk thought uncertainly.
There are sometimes some wonderful "chemical" reactions between supernatural creatures and supernatural items, but E-1's [Listening Old Man] has always been a very harmless one...?
…
What does the underground of the human special department headquarters mean to Bai Su?
It was a rice vat, and he was the mouse that fell into the rice vat.
Of course, he will be able to run out after eating.
The underground structure of the building was completely different. Taking advantage of the help of human employees, he successfully entered the underground space and changed his attachment when the humans walked through the corridor.
The shadow walking on the corridor was very suitable, and it led Bai Su through one cubicle after another.
Bai Su sniffed the smell with his temporarily non-existent organ, and was thinking about where to start eating and how to avoid attracting human attention.
Suddenly, when he was led by a shadow and passed a certain door, Bai Su's attention changed.
The movement of the black shadow he was attached to also stagnated, and then the shadow was controlled by him and turned to the door.
The shadow clung to the door, swam around the door frame a few times, and slowly swam away before humans noticed anything strange.
In a small room inside the door, a gray-haired old man sat alone on a seat in the room, with his hands on his knees and his eyes lowered, staring ahead.
There wasn't much other furniture in the room, except for a ticking clock hanging on the wall.
Not long after, both the hour and minute hands moved.
Opposite the old man, an old man with the same hunched back slowly appeared, with the same appearance and the same sitting posture.
Bai Su took advantage of the process of change to incorporate a little bit of white in the room.
This led to the next scene, where the cyan turbid pupils rolled back and turned into clear and distinct black.
Bai Su couldn't figure out what kind of existence the old man was for the time being, but judging from the "E" sign outside the door and a little bit of breath, he should be an ordinary person with supernatural powers——
The "old man" with dark eyes suddenly stopped looking. He paused for a few seconds, and then grinned a smile that did not match his appearance.
Ah, this is really... Bai Su stared at the old man again and again.
"So that's it." Bai Su, who was wearing an old man's skin, narrowed his eyes, "You don't just want to hear stories."
The wrinkles at the corners of the eyes of the old man sitting opposite him squeezed, but he said nothing.
Looking at the surrounding environment, we can see that humans do not attach much importance to this human body contaminated with supernatural beings, so Guan is kept so close to the surface.
Escape, it's easy to escape, after all, it's only the fourth floor underground.
Bai Su had already thought about how to stand up and walk out of the door, and how to break through the densely populated hall... He thought far away.
I thought about it for a while for this supernatural being who was not within the scope of my diet. Of course, it would not be that easy for the other party to escape.
Moreover, the other party may not have the same intention.
The old man sitting opposite him began to open and close his mouth without any specific syllables. Bai Su could tell that the other man was just pretending.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Su manipulated the transformed body to stand up.
He had just taken two steps toward the old man when a piercing alarm sounded outside the cubicle.
Almost instantly, the entire corridor lit up with red lights.
Bai Su lowered his gaze, and the old man whose view of the camera was blocked by him showed Bai Su his first smile since the outsider entered.
…
If I were to find an adjective to describe the scene in the corridor, I would say Hunting Moment.
The supernatural is scary, the supernatural is uncontrollable, and the supernatural is dangerous.
When making the decision to contain some supernatural-related things, humans will be prepared accordingly.
For example, the death of people, and the destruction of underground space.
In fact, the one who escaped was just a supernatural being classified as C, but it was troublesome to suppress it, and the opponent was dealing mental damage.
I don't know which cubicle I passed by during the escape triggered a chain reaction. The people sent to chase fell into hallucinations, and the supernatural beings escaped several levels without noticing.
"I didn't catch it, it teleported!"
"No trace of it was seen on the third floor."
"On the fifth floor!"
Simply omitting the negative prefix, humans hurried down again.
At this time, they felt that having the ability to teleport would be very convenient, at least they would not have to go up and down the stairs or take the elevator.
However, they couldn't catch them after they caught up. It took a while for the team members who were addicted to hallucinations to wake up. Some of them woke up on their own, and some were awakened by their companions using the physical version of psychological analysis.
If you lose your sanity again, it will be really bad.
With similar thoughts, the chasing team members finally asked the commander for help.
Although they have no external injuries, if they indulge in two more trips, they can all go to the nursing home to reserve a bed.
At that time, there will be fewer people available and able to work in the field, and then they will need to go to work without a good rest... forming a vicious cycle.
I originally thought that the commander above would ask them to work harder, but unexpectedly, the next second order was for them to return to the hall and prevent the supernatural beings from escaping underground.
The chasing team members took orders and retreated.
It is not difficult to prevent the supernatural beings from escaping underground. The strongest part of this underground cage is the outermost circle. If you want to leave the underground, you still have to pass through the human elevator.
The members of the martial arts faction stood in the hall and looked at each other in confusion at the civilian staff who had just crawled out from under the table.
The latter silently folded the suicide note he had written and put it back in his pocket, preparing to burn it after today's crisis.
Then he sat back in his seat and continued working.
The work is endless, and since the escaping supernatural threat is not within the hall, there is no need to worry.
The team members who were called back looked at the escaped supernatural beings running around underground, and there was always a feeling that it would stir up the supernatural beings in other cubicles.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "Are you going to wait here? I feel like if I let him continue to do whatever he wants..."
His concerns were justified; the civilian staff responsible for keeping tabs on the numbers had seen numbers rising in several rooms.
Before a new accident was about to happen, someone finally got off one of the elevators leading to the ground.
As soon as the black-haired young man stepped out of the elevator door, he was greeted by a wave of observing eyes.
There are those who look at it secretly, and there are those who look at it openly.
Bai Su, who had just finished a meal, was in a good mood. He pursed his lips and smiled at the human who looked at him.
When the chaos first broke out more than ten minutes ago, he saw the old man smiling at him. He ignored the meaning of the other person's smile and Bai Su took advantage of the chaos and ran into the corridor decisively.
The red light flashed and turned, and the white shadow also dodged and twisted.
Anyway, it went smoothly. He blended into many fragrant cubicles, and he felt fuller every time he entered and exited.
He eats from his buffet until a human comes to him.
So Bai Su abandoned the underground part in a corner where no one visited, and then the body on the ground woke up.
He was lying on a hospital bed, with a machine above his head that was too complex for humans to know what to do.
The doctor who called him twitched the corner of his mouth when he saw that he had woken up from his "sleep": "Mr. Bai, you are really generous."
Although I've had something in my head for a while, and I've been nervous when I should, but falling asleep during the examination is still a bit...
Bai Su left the machine with a calm expression, and the doctor shrugged: "It seems that there is no abnormality in the branch... I will send you a more detailed report on your mobile phone."
The black-haired young man nodded clearly. Just as he was about to leave the examination place, someone hurriedly broke in from outside.
"Bai Su - are you there?" The man who pushed the door in was panting, with some anxiety on his face. As soon as he saw Bai Su standing there, he wanted to catch him, "Quick, I need you for something..."
Bai Su stepped back and avoided the man's grasping hand.
The man failed to catch him, but he didn't take it to heart. He just thought that Bai Su didn't like to be in contact with others.
He said anxiously for the second time: "I need your help with something, please come with me."
Seeing that Bai Su still had no reaction, the man continued to add: "Your boss will send you a message later. We have a good procedure for borrowing people!"
...Not because of this, Bai Su glanced at the man and then looked at the floor under his feet.
Humans were really quick to find him.
Think about it...it's only been thirteen minutes, right?
Once again, he felt that his previous decision to stuff a wooden Buddha fragment into his head was quite right. Bai Su tilted his head outward and said, "Let's go."
Then there was the scene where he took the elevator and arrived underground. The person leading the way helped him swipe his card and left. He came down alone.
After smiling at the human, Bai Su took out his hand from his pocket: "Where are you going?"
He has seen this process once. The last time he was live broadcasting it at home, the human called him and called him out, and even sent a car to pick him up.
All he has to do is...find the target and judge whether it tastes good or not.
He found a way to swallow the delicious ones, and left the unpalatable ones to humans for disposal.
By the way, the flower branches that grew on humans that day tasted pretty good, although of course they were not as good as the wooden Buddha.
After Bai Su asked, the team member who had received the order quickly gave him directions and thoughtfully gave him a headset for communication.
Bai Su didn't need it, so he took it anyway.
He remembered the strange smell as early as when he was eating at the buffet, and he could feel it now standing in the hall.
"Mr. Bai, right?" the leader shouted, "Let me tell you about the supernatural information."
The leader said while looking at the black-haired young man in front of him.
Among all the tall men, he is not tall, and the muscles in his arms are not strong. He could be called skinny.
And from the looks of it...it's pretty harmless.
The leader, who had heard some rumors, was still a little worried: "Mr. Bai, can you do it alone?"
Even if it says that this person is 100% immune to mental attacks, it doesn't really look like he can fight well, does it? What if the supernatural force breaks out?
Bai Su, who was asked, made an OK gesture. Before walking into the passage on one side, he yawned sleepily, and his whole body was in a relaxed state.
Should he act more nervous? Bai Su thought for a while and finally gave up the idea because it was too troublesome.
The sound of clattering footsteps echoed in the corridor where only the red light was continuously running.
