Chapter 277: "Beware of Cheng Guoguo"
Xu Lang didn't know what was happening in the bathroom, he walked out with a towel to wipe his wet hair, but after walking a few steps, he felt that something was wrong.
With his hands on his face, his vision blurred so that he finally remembered that he had forgotten something, and without saying anything more, he turned around and went back to the bathroom.
It was not clear, the mirror surface covered with water stains was hazy and abnormal, Xu Lang glanced at it and was about to grab his hand to the glasses on the stage, but after such a glance, he found that the image in the mirror was not quite right.
It doesn't always feel so coordinated.......
Xu Lang's face was a little puzzled, stretched out his hand to wipe the mirror, and a bright and clear section suddenly appeared on the mirror, he casually put his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and stared at it carefully for a moment, Xu Lang in the mirror was still as usual, but a certain piece of hair on the top of his head was cut a little crooked.
He will pick up the scissors, cut off the skewed piece of hair, look in the mirror repeatedly, and after a moment, withdraw his gaze, grab the towel and leave the bathroom.
The emergency news on the TV was still scrolling, and this time Xu Lang sat down and began to listen to the news carefully.
With the lessons of the previous skinning murder case, Xu Lang no longer despises the major changes in society at this critical moment.
After listening carefully again, Xu Lang's brows furrowed slightly, this is a transmissible epidemic.
Experts have not yet been able to determine what kind of virus it is, but the official answer is that it is a rare virus, but in less than a week, there have been 42 cases of infection, and even 16 deaths.
This shows that this epidemic is very serious, and Xu Lang can't help but think of the lung ceremony ten years ago, which was a nationwide outbreak of illness with thousands of deaths.
However, due to the national system and internal unity factors, the virus was completely controlled before it mutated, and a catastrophe was averted.
Judging by the description in the news, it seems that this epidemic has only appeared within the city, and no cases have been found in other provinces.
Xu Lang's appearance looked a little suspicious, it is almost unimaginable to control such a vicious virus by simple manpower, don't forget that this is the golden time for travel.
Cities with high foot traffic, such as Huhai, are even more difficult to control.
So why haven't cases been found in other provinces?
Xu Lang had a slight bad mood in his heart, and he had now begun to suspect that this epidemic was inextricably linked to evil spirits, and even the next mission was likely to be related to it!
I don't know when it began, but the newspaper's invasion of the real world was a bit too severe.
Like the first few missions, whether it was the Jingming Mansion at the beginning or the Orange Bay Plaza, after the mission ended, Xu Lang had visited, and the traces of the existence of those evil spirits had disappeared, especially in Orange Bay Plaza, there was no blind date, and those dead blind dates seemed to have evaporated from the world.
To say that this is a newspaper interference in the real world barely makes sense.
But since the Yin and Yang Road, it has become more and more strange.
The cemetery of Changling Mountain is obviously a gathering place for evil spirits, where there are not only buses of the third force, but also a deterrent of skinned evil spirits, and the evil spirit forces that are different from the newspaper office have begun to appear frequently in various places in reality.
And there are many evil spirits that are not completely controlled by the newspaper, so the newspaper can no longer interfere.
In the past, all the tasks seemed to be planned by the newspaper, and he had absolute control over them, and he could also arbitrarily modify the situation after the mission.
And the current few missions, it seems that the newspaper is more inclined to entangle with other evil spirit forces.
Xu Lang didn't know what this change meant, perhaps it was related to the Great Purge, or maybe it was some unknown change in the newspaper itself, but he always felt that the newspaper seemed to be in a bit of a hurry in either case......
After thinking about it again and again, there was no accurate result, Xu Lang slowly stood up, hung the towel in his hand on the chair, came to the window, and looked at the adjacent street.
At this time, the number of pedestrians on the originally bustling road is significantly less.
Perhaps the reason for the epidemic has caused most people to be frightened, but you can still see all kinds of office workers still wearing masks shuttling back and forth, and the vehicles on the road are still so congested.
Even in special circumstances, people have to run for life, maybe in their opinion, there may be a chance that the disease may be avoided, but making money cannot be delayed for a moment.
However, there are also some people who don't care about this, even in this case, they still swagger without wearing masks, carrying vegetable baskets and walking on the street, Xu Lang looked at the pedestrians who were foaming at the mouth and talking and laughing, and felt a little annoyed.
This kind of person really has no public morality.
Xu Lang retracted his gaze after looking at it, it is not clear what the next mission will be, maybe the epidemic mission is just his guess, and he still needs to prepare before the final result.
In the end, he chose to let the newspaper conjure up some medical masks, he didn't want to die in the hands of evil spirits, but be infected by the virus, which would be too much to lose.
Xu Lang came to the door, opened the door lock and pushed it, and found that the restrictions of the newspaper office still existed, which showed that the task of Room 7 was still in progress, but it should have entered the late stage now.
It is not clear whether He Xiao can survive, but in addition to He Xiao, among the remaining executors, Xu Lang has not found a guy with special abilities, and left Song Zhuoming, the executor who indicates clues, I am afraid that their chances of survival are very small.
Xu Lang began to pace in the room, in fact, there are very few things he can do now, everything will not work until the end of room seven, after all, it is not clear what the next mission will be, and it is not clear how many people will participate, which makes Xu Lang a little bored.
He had been in the room for nearly two days, and the wait was not pleasant, but there was nothing he could do.
Xu Lang picked up the water cup, ready to make a cup of coffee, and studied the past cases again, and at this moment, the mobile phone placed on the table suddenly sounded a crisp prompt, interrupting Xu Lang's movements.
He put the cup down in a strange way, as if he didn't know who was going to send him a message at a time like this.
And when Xu Lang unlocked it gently, when he saw the screen, his brows suddenly condensed into pimples.
This text message, and the one who sent him the text message was a string of unknown numbers, Xu Lang was the No. 1 person in his note, and he was also the person who had guided Xu Lang into the newspaper.
Xu Lang had called him the day before, but it showed that no one answered, and at this time, he suddenly sent a text message to Xu Lang as if he had returned after doing something, and finally took action to deal with Xu Lang's affairs.
The content of the text message is very simple, only five words: "Be careful of Cheng Guoguo!" And after these five words, an exclamation symbol was carefully added.
Xu Lang doesn't think this is nonsense, the warning effect is already self-evident, to be honest, he really can't trust Cheng Guoguo, but he also doesn't believe in this No. 1 person.
But there is some kind of wonderful connection between the two, and even the number one person sent such an abrupt and bizarre text message at this juncture, what is the purpose of this.......
When Xu Lang once called, he had many ideas, either to make a deal or to exchange for some information, but this way of replying was something Xu Lang couldn't imagine anyway.
This not only surprised Xu Lang's expectations, but also made him feel confused.
Thinking of this, Xu Lang edited a text message and sent it back, "What do you mean?" ”
But after a long wait, there was no reply from Person One.
Xu Lang put his phone on the table, his face was a little gloomy, it seemed that this No. 1 person was deeper than he imagined.
I thought that this person had some kind of connection with the newspaper and knew some insiders, but now it seems that he also knows everything about the existing employees in the newspaper.
Let's not talk about what Cheng Guoguo did, or how did he know this, what is the purpose of this text message?
Help?
Xu Lang shook his head slightly, he never believed that a mysterious person who had never even met him would help him so generously, and it was impossible to show favor to achieve some kind of purpose.
If he knew the situation in the newspaper, and of course knew Xu Lang's character, this level of means would not only be impossible to exchange for Xu Lang's trust, but would make him even more suspicious of his intentions.
Xu Lang thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't understand what it meant, and he also had a deeper judgment on the authenticity of this text message.
"Could it be that he knew about my negotiations with Cheng Guoguo, and he was on the opposite side of me, trying to make me distrust Cheng Guoguo in this way, causing us to have a gap in the next mission......
Xu Lang was puzzled, but after thinking about it, things were actually not that complicated, because the root of everything was on Cheng Guoguo's body.
So what did this little fat man who was very deep in the city do? Or is it what he wants to do?
