Chapter 35: The Turning Point

"I see, I'll go back to the department now. I'll talk about it when I get there. ”

At dinner time, Xie Ying, who put down the phone, had a blue face, and originally thought that no matter what, he would give Lan Mengqi a cramming education, but now it seems that it will not work.

He walked straight to the middle of the living room, ignored the rabbit who said, "Ah, I want to watch cartoons," and tuned the old color TV to the news channel.

β€œ........ The Ministry of Foreign Affairs made a statement, expressing sincere regret over the murder of the military attache Zhuowute, but seriously refuting the groundless accusations made by the Alter side. Again, it is pointed out that the presence of the diplomat in the sensitive area of the city without permission is in itself a diplomatic misstep, and we seriously question the reason for his presence in the unauthorized area......"

It's still the news program last time, or the anchor last time, and this time it's on the air.

"Someone is dead again? Or is it that case? ”

"Well, it was discovered last night that one of the diplomatic attachΓ©s of the Ark Mission was killed in the Autumn Division, probably investigating the murder of the head of their mission. And then..... It's a street away from the previous point of damage. ”

"Hey, it's really fast this time, but it's not in a hurry, it's still the autumn division, let them rip it off. What's the use of you as a person in charge of the Bailu District? ”

Zheng Li was a little surprised, although the frequency of incidents was a bit high, it was also expected, and it was not enough to interrupt Xie Ying's plan.

If the victim is an ordinary person or a discipline inspector, then you have to hurry up, but now the victim is an Alte, anyway, it is a diplomatic dispute, and the other party is still biting the imprisoned Sun District Chief, so the two sides continue to argue...... Maybe there are still people who secretly applaud.

Shi Whale came out, I don't know how many people want to cut them, maybe this time it's not the decapitator himself, it's just a copycat.

"If you want me to say, just install cameras in the city, then it will be much easier to investigate the case."

"Don't talk nonsense, we can't even do the electric lighting of the outer ring, the last time the pilot project in the two districts was completely destroyed within a week, and it almost caused a city fire. Even if it can be built, do you think the citizens' assembly will be able to pass it? Don't go too far, the commission entrusted to you must be grasped, and the situation is several times more complicated. ”

"How many times? That's ......."

Xie Ying, who was wearing an overcoat, pointed to the TV.

β€œ...... The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Shiqian City strongly condemned the erroneous words and deeds of the diplomatic personnel of Shiqian, and reiterated that the friendly and hospitable citizens of Shiqian do not have special hostility towards the Atel people, which is both rude and contrary to the objective facts.......

Isn't this quite normal, as always, official nonsense, it sounds like that, and even the person who said it won't take it seriously.

At this time, there was another brief interruption in the signal......

lit up again, it was still a female anchor with a bitter face, and the subtle expression that wanted to stop talking was very similar to last time.

β€œ...... I...... Cough. ”

probably didn't even bother to deal with it backstage, and someone handed a note directly outside the camera.

In the end, she worked hard for a long time, but she still didn't pretend, and simply read the manuscript with her face twisted.

"Insert an urgent news that at about 9:20 this morning, the Atale businessman Da Da Xi was killed in the ....... of the Weilin Restaurant in the Autumn Sub-district."

After sorting out the whole body equipment for going out, Xie Ying turned his head and said.

"That merchant is specialized in the import of foreign goods such as Arter, and the whale coordinates were his family when Friendship Avenue was found last time. There are some things that the news will not broadcast, and his body was thrown from the private room on the third floor. There was also a bloodstained note on the corpse that said 'Justice is punished, this is the fate of luring the wolf into the house'. ”

After speaking, Xie Ying hurriedly went out, and Sister Yinzi reluctantly got up and sent a paragraph.

"Is justice heavenly? This is really directly deducting X basin from the discipline inspection force, but this is indeed the style of the discipline inspection department, is it me? Or is it just another copycat? ”

I checked the intelligence mailbox again, and sure enough, I found nothing as always, and the perpetrator was obviously a veteran.

But soon, he realized that the situation was different.

[Righteous Decapitator Event Record: Is He Our Friend or Enemy?] 】

[According to the older generation, there have been several incidents of righteous beheadings, and two of them were really police department personnel in the past, and this time it was not ......]

[Ha, well done, that group of Atle dog X, even if everyone doesn't say it, they know that they must have done it in the previous whale incident. The beheading demon is eliminating harm for the people! 】

Several common forums, especially the official commissioned forums in Bailu District, are extremely popular in this regard.

Not only did someone soon put the note that Xie Ying mentioned just now, but even the murder of Director Liao was dug up.

[I heard that a black armband boss died yesterday, and the beheading demon only beheaded the wicked, maybe that one is also ....... Hehe. 】

[Aren't you afraid of being checked on the water meter?] I don't think it's very likely, the black armband is said to be a political trial twice a year, an internal search, and a big thing will be lost. Compared to the problem with the man, I think he may have chased too close and was killed. 】

There are many news on the Internet, Zheng Li noticed that many people have mentioned a new information, that is, the beheading demon is not a new thing, there have been several times before the relocation of the city, although most of them have been solved, but there is really a former cadre of the Discipline Inspection Department, and there was a big turmoil at that time.

There was no post on the forum yesterday about this, and this sudden surge in popularity, full of the feeling of intelligence manipulation, Zheng Li felt a familiar taste from it.

"Shaping legends, man-made myths........"

"Heh, what do crazy people do. False myths are indeed uncontested and have a very low barrier to entry, but even if they do become mythical creatures. Not only is it so weak that it is only impaired, but it will be revealed sooner or later how to gain a foothold in the city. ”

seemed to have remembered something interesting, Sister Yinzi, who had just returned to the room, showed a look of reminiscence, and then shook her head, this is too unreliable.

β€œ....... We had a fool who did this, and he spent thirty years creating the legend of the Wasteland Man-Eating Bear Monster, but the legend that was too false and unstable was directly denied by the subconscious of the human community, and it fell on the day of advancement. ”

"Don't say that, it's different now than before, the information circulation in the Internet era is hundreds, thousands of times that of before, and this beheading demon has already had a precedent, it has been circulated for a hundred years, maybe there is enough history and ancestral consciousness accumulation, and it really makes that person take a shortcut."

Zheng Li, but a little different.

"Unlikely...... Well, I've also recently become obsessed with playing chess online, which is really convenient. This era is changing so fast, I can't adapt to it. Old friends have also said that some of them are indeed creating new myths on the Internet, and maybe you may be telling the truth. Do you think it's possible? Ahai. ”

Jiang Haiyi, who was calmly drinking tea, was pulled in, put down the teacup, and thought for a while.

"There are possibilities, but as Feng Yin said, the history of false and empty is short, and it is impossible to obtain enough divinity (consciousness) bonus from the subconscious of the human group, and such an advance is meaningless to the path of evolution, and even most of them are negative."

"What those old guys are talking about is using the Internet to strengthen the understanding of the new generation of mythological characters in the old era, and enhance the artificial divinity of heroes and mythological figures, which is a long-term investment in the subconscious of the entire human group, and this should not be the same thing."

Hearing this, Zheng Li nodded silently.

After all, these two have really touched the edge of mythical creatures, and they should know much more about this aspect than they do.

Xie Ying went to get busy, but life still had to go on.

For example, the confused rabbit didn't understand anything, but secretly turned the TV back to the animation channel, she especially likes the old animation called "Bugs Bunny", especially envy the immortal body that can't be killed no matter how you fight, and the superpower of conjuring carrots from the fur casually.

For example, Jiang Haiyi, a good man, not only cleared the table and washed the dishes, but also began to think about tomorrow's morning recipe, considering whether to change the ingredients other than carrots for the rabbit, and think of a new fish dish for Ah Poor by the way.

For example, an intelligence dealer who is knocking on the table, now seriously considering whether he should work overtime at night and make up for the rabbit's course early, if he doesn't do well, he will be involved, Xie Ying is really unsympathetic when he is in a hurry.

For example, a certain silver sister just sent away a "child" with an unhappy heart, but turned her head to remember something, smiled and prepared to complete one of her dreams - to take a bath with the child (daughter), and suddenly pulled away a certain rabbit who was still shouting "I want to see Bugs Bunny", and walked to the bathroom.

Looking at the background and hesitating for a moment, Zheng Li still spoke up.

"Don't toss too hard, I'm going to make up for her in the evening."

"Don't worry, I'll keep her breath and let you toss her at night."

Well, it seems to be a serious matter, but it's really subtle when you talk about it.

"Ahh All day, all day! Haven't learned anything, am I really a fool? ”

In the large bathhouse, Lan Mengqi sank in the water, rolling left and right.

Fortunately just now, when she entered the bath, the fatigue in her body surfaced, and she only had the strength to roll in the water.

"Heh, Eagle Boy is like this, don't look at him on the outside, he looks calm, in fact, he is a super anxious child, he must want you to learn his full set of skills in an instant, can you tell me, how did he teach you today?"

"Huh? You're not his master......."

"Hehe, I'm his master, but there are things, I will, he won't, he will, I won't, everyone has their own path, this is the most interesting thing about our genre."

Lan Mengqi, who seemed to understand whether she understood or not, nodded, but noticed some inconsistencies.
