Chapter 1 The end is coming (1)
Today is August 5th.
Gao Chen was called to Meng's house for breakfast, and the TV in the living room was still broadcasting news about Dai Ming.
In the past few days, the radio station has broadcast it countless times, as if to warn the world not to be a heretic like Dai Ming who betrays his oath.
"I didn't expect Dai Ming to be such a person."
At the table, Uncle Meng put down his porridge spoon and listened to what the news host was broadcasting.
Even though Uncle Meng already knew these contents and had read and heard them countless times from that day to now, he still couldn't believe it in his heart.
In fact, Dai Ming's talent is not very good.
At least after seeing Gao Chen's fitness test, Meng Fangming felt that this kid was just lucky.
To reach this height, I still don’t know how to cherish it.
It would be great if Xiaochen could achieve this position, but it is a pity that this child will not have the chance to become a Kamen Rider in the future.
"Dad, you've been talking about it the past few days, isn't it enough?"
Mengxiangjun has not yet digested the information he has received these days, and he still has to listen to his father nagging him repeatedly.
This is just like when Sun Wukong heard Tang Monk reciting sutras, which made Classmate Meng’s head buzz.
She couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Dad, everyone has two sides. On the surface, Dai Ming is a hero in the eyes of the people, but behind the scenes he is another person. This is normal."
As he said that, he looked at the boy opposite who was chewing fried dough sticks.
The young man looked at her and then said: "Yes, Uncle Meng, it's human nature, who doesn't have two faces?"
"Hmph, this kind of person has ruined the foundation's atmosphere."
Uncle Meng said indignantly: "If everyone is like him, disobeying the rules and breaking their oaths, the world will be in chaos sooner or later."
After that, he said to Gao Chen: "Don't be like this kind of person in the future. We must be upright and upright in our lives!"
Gao Chen nodded in understanding.
"Okay, don't talk about this anymore. Eat it quickly, otherwise the dough sticks will not be crispy anymore."
Aunt Meng was on the side and brought out two more plates of breakfast and added a meat bun to the boy's bowl: "Here, eat more."
Breakfast is being eaten here.
The news on the television stopped abruptly and suddenly resumed.
"Urgent news break. Just now, the Knight Academy laboratory announced a shocking discovery."
"Based on the detection data at the insect disaster site of Beiqiao No. 3 Middle School yesterday, they concluded that the zerg that appeared yesterday were not zerg. Although they belong to the same species, they are not from the same lineage."
"The Knight Academy Laboratory tentatively names it: protozoa."
"They have greater power than the zerg and can lurk among humans for longer periods of time."
"According to the director of the laboratory, Dr. Lin, these protozoa may be able to disguise themselves as humans for more than ten years, or even maintain human form forever."
"And after they studied the DNA of these protozoa, they found that this species has existed in this world for hundreds of years."
"Dr. Lin said that these protozoa may have penetrated into all aspects of our society. They may be your friends, your colleagues, or your family members——"
The people at the table who had been enjoying themselves just now fell silent when they heard the content of the news report.
Except for Gao Chen, the three members of the Meng family looked shocked. This news undoubtedly shattered their world view for more than ten years.
Those protozoa that can appear during the day may have penetrated into every corner of human society and become the people around them that they come into contact with every day?
Meng Fangming stood up, walked to the TV, and repeatedly confirmed the content of the emergency broadcast.
Then he turned around and said to the three of them: "You guys stay at home for now. I'm going to the police station now to see what happened."
As a senior police detective, Uncle Meng knew that if the laboratory of the Knight Academy really discovered this situation, it could not directly disclose it to the public without warning.
At least as the detective of the Qinggang City Police Station, he had to know about this before he could make it public.
After all, even if his position is not high, his superiors will definitely call for a meeting with them to deal with such a big matter and prepare them to deal with it.
But now, there is no notification at all.
This urgent news came so suddenly that if it hadn't been broadcast on the radio, he would have thought it was a prank.
"Dad, this...is this true?"
Meng was no longer in the mood to have breakfast, so he looked at his father, a senior detective, and asked.
For this kind of news, the police station should be the first to know.
On the side, Aunt Meng quickly brought clothes for her husband: "My daughter, I, and Xiaochen are staying at home. You can go."
Meng Fangming also frowned, obviously unaware of this matter.
He put on his coat and said to his daughter: "You stay at home with your mother."
Afterwards, he did not forget to say to Gao Chen: "Xiaochen, you too, I don't know whether this news is true or not, but no one can say for sure, maybe there is chaos outside now, so don't run around. "
After saying that, Meng Fangming strode out of the door.
Meng classmate looked at the young man who looked careless and had a bun in his mouth.
She glanced at her mother who was going to draw the curtains, and then moved closer to the boy: "You already know this, right?"
She didn't know why, but she felt that Gao Chen already knew everything, otherwise he would still be in the mood to eat steamed buns here leisurely.
Gao Chen swallowed the last bite of the bun, drank the soy milk slowly and said, "I know. But I didn't expect that someone would dare to announce it. Isn't this just looking for trouble?"
Humans are unaware of the existence of protozoa, and protozoa also believe that they are in a safe situation and are not exposed.
In this way, the two races can live harmoniously together.
But it's fine now.
The idiots in the Knight Academy laboratory directly announced the research results that they were very proud of.
It is estimated that before long, the whole world will be in chaos.
"I am leaving."
Gao Chen wiped his mouth with a tissue, stood up and walked towards the door.
He needs to have a good talk with the inspection team about this matter. If this matter really causes turmoil in the world, it will not be good for anyone.
Neither humans nor the protozoa want this, except for some protozoa.
In addition, his elimination plan has just begun. If this incident gets serious, the plan will definitely be disrupted.
"Where are you going?"
Meng Xiangjun glanced at her mother on the balcony, and then asked in a low voice: "Can you take me with you?"
"Take you? Forget it, you should just stay at home."
After Gao Chen finished speaking, he opened the door and went out without giving the other party a chance to ask again.
As the door closes.
Seeing this, Meng was so angry that he stamped his feet and wanted to follow, but he heard his mother behind him say: "Who went out just now?"
"Well, Gao Chen said he had to go to work."
"It's so messy outside and this kid still wants to go to work. It's really disturbing."
Aunt Meng was worried and chased him out, only to see that the young man was no longer visible in the corridor.
...
Walking out of the unit building, Gao Chen could feel that the residents passing by were strange, looking at the people around him as if they were wary of monsters.
He took out the communicator from his pocket and connected to the inspection team's channel, but no one answered.
I guess the inspection team is also busy with this matter at the moment.
Finally, he had to hang up and decided to go to a restaurant first.
Luo Ning is a capable person and may know something about the situation.
However, there are many protozoa hidden in the Knight Foundation. Once this matter is confirmed by the authorities, I am afraid that the Foundation will be the first to have problems.
According to the information provided by the inspection team, the protozoa present in the Qinggang City Foundation alone probably account for 30% of the total members.
There were many senior executives, especially when Gao Chen was at the funeral and saw Yuan Zhenghua who was speaking at the memorial service.
This person has serious suspicions, but he has never missed the mark.
When we arrived at the restaurant, the back door was open.
When Gao Chen walked in, the store was empty, no diners came to dine in, and the TV was playing the news.
"Dude, you're finally here!"
Fatty Wang strode over: "Have you read the news?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the TV that was playing emergency content repeatedly.
"There are actually bad people hiding among our masses!"
Fatty Wang looked horrified and had an exaggerated expression. He put his greasy, fat hands around Gao Chen's arm and said, "It's terrible!"
Gao Chen pushed him away with some disgust and asked, "Why are you back?"
"I just came back alone last night."
Fatty Wang said: "I originally planned to come back for a few days and then go to Guangnan."
"As soon as I came back, I heard that the earth was invaded by Zerg!"
"How can I trust my parents to stay here? When they come back from their hometown, I will tell them that I will not go to Guangnan. I will stay here to take care of them."
take care of? I'm afraid I won't stay here and grow old...
Gao Chen muttered in his heart, and then asked: "Where is the boss?"
"I don't know either. Just ask Qing Mo. She is familiar with the boss." Fatty Wang pointed at the front desk.
Gao Chen looked over and found that the girl was staring at the TV in a daze, motionless, as if the TV had taken away her soul.
Gao Chen walked to the counter and poked the girl's shoulder with his finger. The touch was very soft.
Unexpectedly, before he had time to feel it for a while, the girl trembled all over and raised her hand, almost missing his face.
"Hey, I'm not a protozoa."
Gao Chen saw her staring at the TV in fascination and thought she was frightened by the news.
"Ah, I just..." Qing Mo hesitated for a long time before adjusting the word order, bowed deeply and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
"It's okay." Gao Chen looked at the TV and reassured: "It's not sure whether it's true or not. Don't scare yourself here."
"Ok, I know."
Qing Mo lowered his head and replied in a low voice.
"Where's the boss? Have you seen her?" Gao Chen asked again.
"Sister Luo is upstairs." Qing Mo pointed to the stairs and added: "Sister Luo's girlfriend is also there."
girlfriend?
Gao Chen didn't have to think twice to know that it was Chun Xiaoxiao before he could go upstairs.
Da da da.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the stairs.
Gao Chen turned his head, and a pair of long white legs came into view, followed by a slender waist and plump hips, delicate facial features, and brown curly hair tied into a ponytail.
It was Chun Xiaoxiao who came out of the stairwell. She was wearing casual clothes and a pair of sandals: "Hey, you come to work so early? I don't think you are so active in my class."
Behind him, Luo Ning also followed.
"Gao Chen, you came just in time. Follow me to the riverside warehouse to pick up a batch of seafood. It was just shipped yesterday."
The boss seemed to know nothing.
He actually had the nerve to ask him to pick up the goods.
Gao Chen asked: "Boss, have you read the news?"
"Looked at it."
Luo Ning walked over and saw that the boy didn't move. She asked doubtfully: "What next?"
"And you were shocked? Don't you think something should be done?"
Gao Chen was more confused than she was.
How can this situation be so calm?
"Yes, yes, I think Gao Chen is right."
Fatty Wang came over and interjected: "Boss, can you give us paid leave? It's very dangerous to work like this every day. I'm the only one in my family. If there is an accident on the road one day..."
Chun Xiaoxiao looked at the fat man and joked: "Boy, you are really good at calculating. I don't know if the protozoa is real, but you are really cheating."
Luo Ning smiled politely: "The authenticity of this matter remains to be discussed. Let's wait until the authorities officially issue a notification."
"Besides, if this thing is true, what can ordinary people like us do."
Good guy.
Gao Chen was speechless. The boss was really calm. He was still trying to get some information from the other party.
It looks like there is no chance.
Luo Ning walked towards the back door and saw that the young man was still stunned. She urged, "Stop being stunned and come with me to pick up the goods."
Maybe no one at the foundation believed this, otherwise how could the boss be so calm.
Gao Chen rode with Luo Ning to a warehouse area.
Although this place is called 'Riverside Warehouse', it is not on the riverside, but in the suburbs near the expressway toll station.
After the Knight Academy Laboratory announced the truth about the world, some people believed it and some questioned it, but most people still believed it and thought it was like the end of the world was coming.
Along the way, many pedestrians on the street were rushing home, and the urban traffic was extremely congested.
The two of them rode at a fairly fast speed, and due to the heavy traffic, it took them almost twenty minutes to get out of the city.
The traffic flow in the subsequent section of the road was extremely light, and there were not even a few large trucks that usually transported goods.
I'm afraid not many people dare to go out today.
After leaving the city, we drove smoothly on this suburban industrial road. After driving for nearly thirty minutes, a warehouse factory appeared in our field of vision.
This is the largest warehouse in Qinggang City, and the logistics in other urban areas are also concentrated here.
One after another, the iron roofs are close together, as if there is no end in sight.
They turned left and entered the side entrance of the riverside warehouse.
However, after entering, except for the people in the security room at the door, the entire warehouse seemed to be empty.
"That's weird. Where are the people?"
Luo Ning got out of the car, took off her helmet, and looked around but saw no staff.
The entire warehouse area was empty. Except for some blue and red containers that were unloaded next to some warehouse doors, nothing else could be seen.
Gao Chen didn't think it was strange. The TV station announced the news about the protozoa, so how could anyone dare to come to work?
In particular, Jiangbian Warehouse is located in the suburbs, more than half an hour away from the city.
However, Gao Chen suddenly felt his hair standing on end, and ominous premonitions came one after another.
Bang! ! !
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from a nearby warehouse.
The two looked over there.
"Help!"
what happened?
Gao Chen looked at the warehouse and saw someone shouting for help.
"I'll go over and take a look. You wait for me here."
As a capable person, Luo Ning was naturally not afraid. Instead, she was worried about the danger the young man had encountered in the past.
However, don't wait for the woman to pass.
Bang——
A figure flew out of the warehouse door and fell heavily to the ground.
Inside the gate, a monster with fish scales all over its body walked out.
protozoan?
There is something really wrong with this place!
Gao Chen had a sullen face and glanced at the boss beside him from the corner of his eye.
"Oops."
Luo Ning's face was solemn. She didn't expect to encounter protozoa here.
Regarding the protozoa, she felt that there were mixed truths and falsehoods, but the sudden appearance of the monster in front of her still made her speculate.
The security of the riverside warehouse is not weak, and it is impossible to let the alien insects in easily.
Because if the goods in the warehouse are damaged, the warehouse management company will be fully responsible for the losses caused.
"Old, boss. What should we do now?"
Gao Chen looked at the man who fell to the ground, looking like he had passed out.
"you go first."
Luo Ning touched the back of the motorcycle. Her motorcycle was a retro low-rider motorcycle with two leather bags on both sides of the back seat.
I saw her take out a key-like thing from her bag.
Take a belt from another bag.
Then, she held the sublimation key in her hand.
His eyes narrowed and he walked towards the protozoa.
Gao Chen realized that she was planning to transform in front of him regardless of the risk of revealing her identity.
"Boss, what are you—"
"You go first and leave this place to me."
Luo Ning said and pressed the sublimation key, and a pleasant sound effect sounded.
'JUMP!'
Immediately, the sublimation key flashed across the drive on his waist.
'AUTHORISE!'
Insert one into the slot: "Chanshen"
'REALIZING HOPPER! '
The surroundings were rendered green and yellow, and a mechanical locust jumped from deep space and jumped to the side.
After several consecutive jumps, Luo Ning's body was covered with digital shape lines from right to left, weaving countless yellow strips of material around her body.
"Boss, you are actually a Kamen Rider?"
Gao Chen was a little shocked.
This shock was not about the identity of the other party, but that the other party dared to show off their cards in front of him like this?
Luo Ning didn't look back and waved for him to leave quickly.
Leaving now?
If he couldn't defeat him, wouldn't he have to turn back?
Therefore, Gao Chen took advantage of the situation and hid sideways in another warehouse, where he could see the situation outside.
At this time, Luo Ning outside had already approached the protozoa. She knew that the boy had not left. It was normal for a child to be curious, so she didn't pay much attention to him.
The protozoa in front of us is more important.
Gao Chen also looked at the protozoa.
He still looked like he came from a certain seafood market, which made him wonder whether the protozoa in this world were related to Kaito.
The only thing they have in common now is that they all seem to have acceleration skills.
Could it be that the protozoa have mutated after being on this earth for too long?
boom--
While I was thinking, the battle was about to break out outside!
