Anping City Criminal Investigation Brigade Headquarters.
"Professor Zhou, the hotel has been arranged. When are you going to arrive?"
"Hey, why are you panicking?"
In the office, Professor Zhou, who was wearing a black suit and a pair of black-framed myopia glasses, with his silver hair neatly combed, looked at the middle-aged policeman in front of him and smiled.
"Xiao Wang, didn't I say that since we haven't seen each other for so many years, we can't sit down and chat for a while?"
Hearing the old man's words, Officer Wang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He and Professor Zhou met more than 20 years ago. At that time, he was still a junior police officer. Due to a relatively special criminal case, he came into contact with Professor Zhou, who was very famous at Imperial University at the time.
However, because they had not been together for a long time, although they had left contact information with each other, so many years had passed, and they had not actually had much conversation until the last time the World of Warcraft Research and Countermeasures Bureau suddenly called and asked him to pay attention to something. The contact between him and Professor Zhou was restored only after he became a citizen of Anping City named 'Chen Mo'.
Just when Officer Wang was about to make some small talk to lighten the atmosphere, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and two young men in casual clothes, each holding a mobile phone, barged in.
Officer Wang hadn't spoken yet. When he looked back, he found out that it was Professor Zhou who was his two apprentices, and he immediately became angry.
"What's going on with you two guys? Do you really think this place is your own home? Do you still have the most basic courtesy? Don't you know how to knock on the door before entering a room!?"
Seeing the angry Professor Zhou, Hu Chengliang softened immediately, but when he thought of what was happening in the live broadcast, he spoke quickly.
"No, teacher, something big happened!"
"event!?"
Professor Zhou angrily rebuked: "Even if it is a big deal, it is not the reason why you can do whatever you want."
The young man in a white shirt who stayed behind shook his head, then passed Hu Chengliang and placed his cell phone directly on Professor Zhou's desk.
"Teacher, look at this, it's really a big deal."
Professor Zhou frowned and looked down at the mobile phone placed on the table.
On the screen was a video waiting to be played, and on the screen stood a young man who looked familiar to Professor Zhou.
"Comrade Xiao Mo?"
After clicking on it, the video was very short, exactly the scene when Chen Mo was taken away by the unknown totem.
Immediately afterwards.
Hu Chengliang also said quickly.
"Teacher, after Chen Mo was taken away by this mysterious elf called the unknown totem and entered the crack, the live broadcast room has been offline for almost a minute."
"What!?"
Professor Zhou's expression immediately became serious.
He raised his head, pointed at the picture in the video, and looked at Officer Wang.
"Xiao Wang, can we get real-time satellite monitoring of this place?"
"It should be okay. I'll find someone to get it right away."
Officer Wang didn't hesitate, got up and walked quickly out of the office.
Clicking on the video again, Professor Zhou looked solemn.
In fact, there are now hundreds of types of elves recorded by the World of Warcraft Research and Countermeasures Bureau. Professor Zhou has witnessed all the elves that Chen Mo met during his live broadcast, either with his own eyes or in the files, but this time, the one who took Chen Mo away was He has never seen an elf before.
The unknown is the scariest thing.
For now, humans' understanding of elves is still too blank. Even those of them in the World of Warcraft Research and Countermeasures Bureau are helpless about many things.
"I hope nothing unexpected happens..."
Professor Zhou can be said to value Chen Mo very highly. The reason is naturally because of the huge mystery surrounding elven knowledge surrounding Chen Mo.
In fact, based on what Chen Mo has shown in the live broadcast room, many people in the World of Warcraft Research and Countermeasures Bureau can no longer sit still. If Professor Zhou had not strongly opposed it, Chen Mo might have been restricted from moving now.
After all, in the eyes of some people in the Countermeasures Bureau, you can completely trust our country. If you want to realize the peaceful coexistence of humans and elves, there is no problem. You can sit and talk, and there is no need to go to the wild broadcast in such a risky way. .
Thinking of this, Professor Zhou couldn't help but regret. He didn't really want to use the power of the state to coerce a young man, but now it seems that maybe he should agree with the views of his old friends.
Sensing Professor Zhou's emotional changes, the man in the white shirt who had been watching the live broadcast spoke out to comfort him.
"Teacher, I think Chen Mo's life is not in any danger. The person who brought him to this place is his newly tamed Bibi bird. Logically speaking, the Bibi bird should not go out of its way to harm Chen Mo."
"Yeah?"
Professor Zhou rubbed his eyebrows under his glasses.
"Tell me what happened during today's live broadcast."
Just when the man in the white shirt was about to briefly describe the entire live broadcast process to Professor Zhou, Hu Chengliang, who had been observing his cell phone, suddenly spoke up.
"It's on! There is signal in the live broadcast room again!"
"Take it and take a look."
Professor Zhou directly grabbed Hu Chengliang’s cell phone and started watching.
The man in the white shirt glanced at Hu Chengliang, who looked confused, and laughed unkindly, but soon, the two of them adjusted their mentality and focused on the small mobile phone screen.
"It seems fine, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
"Pay attention to the surrounding environment. Is this a relic? It looks a bit old."
"Secret realm? Does Comrade Xiao Mo know this place?"
Hu Chengliang observed Chen Mo's expression on the screen, thoughtfully.
"Could it be that this is not the first time for Chen Mo to come into contact with such a secret place?"
The man in the white shirt also reacted.
"I almost understand now why Chen Mo knows so much about elves. Pay attention to the murals around the video. They seem to depict some elves and humans in relatively primitive costumes. This ruins, no The accident should be a product of the elves’ original world.”
It can be easily judged from the surrounding murals that this ruins is not the original product of this planet, but also belongs to an unknown world, the world where the elves originally lived.
"It's too early to tell."
Professor Zhou looked at the picture on the screen and said slowly.
"However, it is proven that humans also existed in the world where the elves originally lived. This can be regarded as solving some of the confusions we are currently studying."
Saying this, Professor Zhou became enthusiastic.
He was very interested in the world where the elves originally lived, and wanted to understand how humans in that world dealt with the threats posed by the elves.
It would be great if I could go to this ruins in person...
Just as Professor Zhou was thinking this, the door to the office was pushed open again, and Officer Wang looked at the three people and said quickly.
"Professor Zhou, we have asked someone to come out to monitor us. Come and take a look, things seem to be getting more and more wrong."
