"Recently? You should go out soon. There will be no live broadcast in the afternoon."
Bai Su, who was rarely open for business, stood in front of the camera. His live broadcast equipment had long been replaced by shotguns, but he was too lazy to use it.
The camera was set up in the kitchen. The black-haired young man outside the camera was wearing gloves and was taking a tray out of the oven and placing it under the camera.
When the tray was placed on the marble table, the barrage of people who were still asking enthusiastically about their plans for the afternoon all froze for a moment, followed by ellipses and "As expected of you" statements frequently appeared.
The black-haired young man looked at the newly baked product and made a confused expression: "Why is this happening? It was obviously done step by step, didn't you see it?"
["Step by step", Xiaobai, why did you add the black usable pigment to it! ]
[I don’t want to ask what my plans are for the afternoon anymore. Is it true that if I just eat this, I won’t go to the hospital? ]
[Let me answer the above question, probably not. Xiaobai’s stomach is probably made of iron. ]
[Yes, I ate the spicy curry last time... If I remember correctly, I recorded a short video of eating ice cream soon, right? ]
[I have the impression that the video also revealed the address of the mall. Xiaobai had already left when my friend rushed there, but she bought the same ice cream, which was indeed delicious. ]
[Eating cold food in this weather... No matter how you look at it, this way of eating is not good for your stomach. ]
[I'm going too far - so how did this mosaic thing appear? ]
As Bai Su said, except for adding black food coloring for some fun, the other operations were completed according to the steps.
The operation steps are provided by the live broadcast room. Originally I just wanted to make a simple bread, but now it seems...
The black dough under the lens is twisted into an indescribable shape. It must be baked and has a corresponding aroma.
In fact, the sweet smell is edible, but you can't smell it in the live broadcast room. The only feedback they can receive is the terrifying appearance that will make you lose your senses just by looking at it.
[Xiao Bai has some dark cooking talent. ]
[I thought I only had this talent for cooking home-cooked food, but I didn’t expect that this kind of ordinary cooking could also...]
[Well done, don’t do it next time. ]
[Stop providing anchors with recipes to play with! We just need to cook instant noodles. ]
[It seems that fast-food products have never seen overturning... I also think Xiaobai, we should not cook casually in the future. ]
Bai Su saw the barrage. He didn't respond. Instead, he broke open the twisted lump of bread and stuffed it into his mouth.
The inside of the bread was also dyed gray-black due to the added pigment, causing the barrage to worry when it was stuffed into the mouth.
Unexpectedly, Baisu chewed it twice, swallowed it, and commented that it tasted pretty good.
"It's just that the shape is a bit ugly, but it's quite delicious."
[Redefining ugly. ]
[Let’s just say it’s scary, but it’s still edible? ]
[Do I need to call 120? Anchor - Is there really nothing wrong with eating? ]
"No." Bai Su glanced at the barrage, took the tray aside and put it away, "There is no need to take 120. If my stomach feels uncomfortable, I will go to the hospital by myself."
"And that's it for today's live broadcast. There won't be any Xiaobai No. 2 broadcasting in the past two days... The next live broadcast will be next month!"
[? ]
[? ? Are you ruthless again? ]
[Damn it, bring back the hard-working anchors! ]
Bai Su didn't care what the live broadcast room tried to do to keep him. He bent down and leaned closer to the person. Almost half of his face was in front of the camera, and the hair on his face was clearly visible.
[wait wait wait! Don’t close it yet! You haven’t answered the questions that Xiaobai has been asking you in the comment section! ]
[Yes, Xiaobai, are you going to the next exhibition? ]
Seeing the question, Bai Su reluctantly stopped and took a look at the comment area.
What the barrage was talking about was probably a comic exhibition that was scheduled to open in the near future. The live broadcast platform asked him if he wanted to participate. At that time, he was busy running around with his "monk" appearance, so he declined.
But then again, what can he do at the Comic Con? Can he eat and drink like crazy at the show?
"I shouldn't go to Comic Con. I have to be busy with some work." Ignoring the barrage's comment "Wherever there is work, even if there is work, it will be broadcast by pets." Bai Su pressed his hand on the power-off button.
He did not tell the audience that Comic Con was expected to be canceled or postponed. After all, this was a rumor he learned through special channels.
There are some vague rumors about the doppelganger in the city, so exhibitions and other events will naturally be affected.
"That's about it. This month's live broadcast has been completed. See you next month." The black-haired young man waved his hand at the end, "Don't go to places with few people in the near future, and don't travel alone."
The black-haired young man under the camera smiled and said his warning, and then a white light flashed and the screen turned into darkness.
The viewers who had not yet left the live broadcast room were wailing that there were only a few days left until next month, and they reluctantly went to Baisu's feed to apply for more proxy broadcasts. In fact, there is no problem if the anchor is not a human.
A few spoke hesitantly on the barrage, but were quickly ignored by others.
[How come the anchor’s words are similar to those of my leader...]
[I always feel like Xiaobai knows something. ]
…
The time for humans to meet Baisu is in the afternoon.
This was the result after they finished their work. They originally wanted to pick them up in the morning, but they encountered a difficult case and had to wait in the queue.
A car came to pick Bai Su up in the afternoon. He didn't know the driver, but it didn't stop him from chatting with him familiarly.
"Ah, you must be Bai Su, I have heard of your name!"
"Um."
"That's great. I heard that you have a special talent. It's much better than a clerk like me."
"Um."
The driver muttered a few more words, and after braking and stopping at a red light, the black-haired young man raised his head amid the human chatter.
He saw in the rearview mirror that the driver had a kind face. He was about forty years old, not too old.
Bai Su narrowed his eyes.
He saw other emotions in the human eyes, well hidden, but still revealed with the rise and fall of the words.
He remembered...he was going to the headquarters of the special department today, right? This seemed to be the first time he had been in a car with a human being who was obviously hostile to him.
Those with different camps are considered separately, but like the one in front of me, they are all from the same department.
The small car was so big. Bai Su looked at the rearview mirror for a while, then suddenly leaned forward and put his hand on the back of the driver's seat.
The five fingers were slightly lowered, and a little further forward was the driver's shoulder.
Bai Su rubbed his fingers twice, feeling that if a knife or dagger were placed on the person's neck at this moment, the momentum would be stronger.
"I said..." He started lazily, "Are you done?"
The driver felt an inexplicable chill on his neck. When the red light turned into green, he glanced at the rearview mirror and found a hand on his neck.
It's obviously a human hand, but it feels like a blade against the skin.
As long as he makes any abnormal movement, his neck will be cut. If it cuts a major artery, the blood will immediately spurt out and splash all over the windshield. It will be difficult for the wiper to clean it inside, and then the sticky blood will flow down. , sliding all the way into the air outlet of the air conditioner...
"Baba--"
The sound of horns from behind brought the driver back to his senses. He found that the green light had been showing for a while, but his car was still parked on the road.
He blocked the vehicle behind him, so others honked their horns.
The driver stepped on the accelerator in a daze, and while the car was still slowly starting, he glanced at the rearview mirror.
The black-haired young man was still leaning on the backrest of the driver's seat, his fingers tapping on the leather seat, as if tapping on the human heart.
Shivering again, the driver turned the steering wheel sharply and turned the car onto the street on the left.
I don’t know when the air conditioner was turned on in the car.
Bai Suxia leaned forward, crossed the gap between the two seats in the front row, and turned off the cold air from the air conditioner.
The driver was so quiet that he didn't speak any more. He didn't say anything until he drove the car to the entrance of the special department's headquarters, "We're here."
"Thank you." Bai Su smiled at the rearview mirror, then opened the door and got out of the car.
The person waiting at the door of the headquarters was someone he knew. The short-haired police officer had a bad expression on his face when he saw the car and the license plate number. After the car stopped, he quickly walked down the steps.
Seeing Bai Su get out of the car, he tilted his head toward the building: "Go over there."
Bai Su closed the car door and followed him away. When he was far away, the car that picked him up suddenly stepped on the accelerator and left there as if running away.
Xia Chengyin saw it and asked, "What did you do?"
Bai Su thought about what he did in the car - he sat up straight, put his hands on the back of the seat in front of him, and then released a little breath.
Really only a tiny bit, not even more than his fingernails.
After the brief review was over, Bai Su shook his head: "I didn't do anything. He talked too much. I reminded him."
The short-haired police officer gave Bai Su a thumbs up and led the people through the door. The warm air hit his face. It was a bit hot if he was wearing a coat.
"At noon - at noon we found out that it was not our people who picked you up." Xia Chengyin led the people and continued walking in. "After asking around and no one claimed it, I found out that this job had been 'done' by someone else."
To put it mildly, it was done on your behalf, but to put it worse, it was snatched away, or taken away by the leaders who were not aware of it. By the time their people found out, it was already too late to send people.
The short-haired police officer angrily cursed the people who interfered without permission, and then said: "Next time, if you are not from our branch, don't bother with it. The factions are different."
Bai Su nodded in understanding and watched Xia Chengyin swipe his card and open the downward elevator.
"But." Bai Su asked when the elevator door closed, "Didn't I say you don't need to worry about it before?"
"Huh? Who told you?"
"Short-haired woman named Chen."
"Oh, Chen Zi." The elevator descended slowly, and Xia Chengyin's somewhat disgusting face was printed on the mirror door. "What she said at that time was right, but the situation is a little different now."
Facing the elevator door, Bai Su tilted his head as if seeking explanation.
"Now..." Xia Chengyin frowned, and some unbearable emotions made him want to smoke to relieve his anxiety. However, at the headquarters, the short-haired man finally opened a candy and stuffed it into his mouth, "The doppelganger thing made them feel a little bit. It’s inconvenient.”
Although it was inconvenient before, it was limited to some tasks.
Human beings who can overcome it will naturally not come looking for someone, and they will only send invitations to Baisu when they cannot avoid it.
Unlike now, the doppelgänger incident has exploded in a large area. Starting from the round-faced boy, it has reached the point where people in every area continue to look for people.
The scope is too large, the number is too large, and the situation has a tendency to get out of control.
Bai Su can "see".
Even though he can't find it, he can "see it."
After returning from the alley next to the bar and handing in the report, some people's attention came to Bai Su again.
Generally speaking, I still want to replicate the "miracle" that happened to Bai Su.
"That's it." Bai Su smiled half-heartedly after hearing this, "Then I wish them success? I'm just kidding, it's best not to try this kind of thing."
The short-haired police officer saw Bai Su's expression in the reflection of the mirror and shook his hand: "We are still far from success. I just started to have this idea."
Suitable implants, suitable candidates, and operations that will not be knocked down by colleagues all require screening and time.
"We're here." The elevator reached the seventh underground floor, and the elevator door opened in front of the two of them. "Calling you here today is just an insurance policy. If you read it right... tsk."
Without knowing what he thought of, Xia Chengyin chewed the candy in his mouth and made a crunching sound with a very ferocious aura.
"Anyway - don't bother with those messy people."
I don't think there's anything wrong with using the word "messy" to describe some of my colleagues. The short-haired police officer has always been an unruly prick.
Bai Su nodded obediently and walked out together.
The environmental structure of the underground facility is still so dark and depressing. In the hall, only the lights in the surrounding work areas are turned on brightly. The large chandelier in the middle is not turned on for some reason. It is not clear whether it is a malfunction or some other reason.
The staff in the lobby took a look when the elevator door opened. After finding that there was nothing abnormal, they took it back and continued their heavy work.
However, an employee who was walking around delivering things explained to them as they passed by that a supernatural being had escaped on their floor not long ago. Even though they were contained again, they still turned off the largest light just to be on the safe side. .
Xia Chengyin couldn't recite all the supernatural beings contained underground, so he didn't ask any more questions, while Bai Su stared at the chandelier for a while before looking away.
He wouldn't tell humans that the chandelier was indeed possessed by a supernatural spirit, since no one would be killed anyway.
The two then walked inside and walked along the hall to a door on the side of the corridor, where a slightly short figure had already been waiting.
Seeing them coming, the figure jumped down from the stool he was sitting on and approached them in two or three steps.
"Brother Xia!" the young man shouted, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Gao Tianyi braked and stopped in front of the two of them, as if he had just realized that there was another person, and said hello awkwardly: "Hey, Brother Bai, are you here today?"
