Public Security Department, 10th floor.
As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, a virtual projection of the black-clad sheriff appeared in front of Ji Le's eyes. He seemed to have been waiting at the elevator entrance.
"Follow me." The virtual projection said, and then led Ji Le to a room. The sign in the room read: Special Task Force 10-3.
The virtual projection stood in front of the door: "Please come in."
Ji Le pushed the door open and walked in, only to find that he was in a new space, not an office as he had imagined.
The new space is a huge arsenal. There are black and gray brick walls, rows of shelves with various weapons, and targets in the center of the open space. The boundary between the arsenal and reality is full of haziness. Ji Le can touch things here, but these things don't seem to fully exist in reality.
Yes, this is a box view.
The black-clad sheriff appeared in the center of the arsenal: "Welcome to my world."
Ji Le could only pretend that it was the first time he saw it, and was slightly surprised: "Where is this? Am I still on the tenth floor of the Public Security Department?"
"Exaggerated acting skills." Eyes Li rolled his eyes.
"Yes, you are still on the tenth floor, but from a certain perspective, you are not here either." The black-clothed Sheriff said. "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Craig. You can call me Agger. I am Agent No. 2 of the Special Task Force."
"The place where you are currently is my boxscape. Geographically speaking, you are still on the tenth floor of the Ministry of Public Security, but you also exist in the boxscape constructed from my spiritual world."
"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand."
"Simply put, I can imagine a world, and this imaginary world can invade reality and let others see or even touch it. That's why you can stand here and talk to me." Craig answered. "And you should have had the experience of entering box scenes many times. The weird apartment and hospital you experienced before are all box scenes."
Ji Le nodded, his face full of confusion: "So why are you looking for me? What can I do?"
Craig did not directly answer Ji Le's words, but spread his palms.
Ji Le's pupils dilated slightly.
There was a game card lying quietly on his hand, still stained with fresh blood.
What is this going to do? This person wants to give him the secondary card? Ji Le concealed his surprise and looked at Craig with puzzled eyes.
Although he really wanted to recycle this secondary card, now was not the time to be impatient.
"This small card is the core of the box scene. With it, people's imagination can be turned into reality, invade reality, and turn ordinary people into capable people." Craig said. "But such a card often represents a human life."
"So far, all the cards we can find originate from dead people. The obsessions and residual strong emotions of these dead people turned into box scenes, invaded reality, and were subdued and recovered by us."
"This card belongs to the singer Chaoyan. As long as you get her card and adapt it to the terminal in your brain, you can use the singer's box scene."
Ji Le looked confused, and he found that he could only pretend to be stupid.
In fact, he didn't quite understand what Craig said. The game secondary card itself is abnormal, so how can the terminal in the brain adapt to it without alarming? Don't forget, most of the people Ji Le has seen who have used the game's secondary cards have died.
Only the dead can control this deck of cards.
But according to what Craig said, living people can adapt to the secondary card, which shows that the Ministry of Public Security and even the country have noticed the anomaly of the box scene and invested a lot of research.
Ji Le looked at Craig. This man was definitely not dead, and the box scene of the arsenal didn't seem to match his personal temperament.
The same example is pear fragrance. Rika meets the uncle who died unjustly, and the two become one, so Rika can use the uncle's box scene in the future, and can inspire her own box scene to merge into the uncle's box scene while still alive.
Could it be that this Craig did the same thing?
"So, do I want to continue listening? Isn't this considered confidential information?" Ji Le said.
"These are not considered secrets in the eyes of some people, and I tell you these are for a purpose." A set of gray tables and chairs appeared in front of Craig. "Sit down. There have been a lot of box scenes recently. We have secretly recycled them and saved the collected box scene cards, waiting for someone with high adaptability to appear."
Ji Le touched the chair and found that the chair was not made of metal as it seemed, but more like plastic.
It seems that Craig's box scene is actually quite distorted and cannot fully invade reality.
"But not everyone can control this card. We have tried to let ordinary people control these cards before, but these people are either immersed in the memory of the dead and unable to extricate themselves, or even completely eroded by the emotions of the dead, or it has no effect at all. It’s like inserting a useless card. So it’s not easy to find people who can handle these box view cards.”
"Now that we've discovered you, you have great potential."
Ji Le couldn't laugh or cry. Did he turn to him to control the secondary card of the game? Then you really found the right person.
"After research, we came to some conclusions. There are several characteristics of people who can successfully control the box scene card." Craig continued. "First, people who are emotionally stable, but not through the adjustment of terminals in the brain, but rely on their own adjustment to achieve stability. Second, there are still many human emotions that will naturally express complex emotions such as guilt and pity. Third Third, it is best to be someone who is not dependent on the Utopian system, such as someone who has not had a brain terminal installed since childhood, or who does not rely on a brain terminal."
"And you are very satisfied with all three, so we think you can definitely control this diva."
"Don't you think these words are a bit overbearing? You said you want me to control it, so I have to try it?"
"Yes, this is an order." Craig looked serious. "Only box scenes can suppress box scenes. We must expand our staff to solve the next box scene."
"Does this mean that if I can control this card, I will become the Sheriff?"
"It can be understood that we will modify your originally matched career plan in the Utopia system and change this occupation to a peace officer, so you don't have to worry about permission issues. We are a special department and an emerging department, and the Utopia system does not yet have the corresponding Update, during this period, the process can be manually modified."
Ji Le is not worried about authority issues at all. He is worried that if he is poached as a police officer, his movements will be more inconvenient and he will have to withstand various searches.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It's not easy to become a peace officer."
