The room was very simple, with only one long table, and in the seats next to the long table, there were more than a dozen figures of considerable age dressed in almost the same dark clothes.

They didn't talk, just kept a strange silence.

In addition to the water on the table, there were stacks of documents that were constantly being sent, and each document was printed out in more than a dozen copies, and placed in front of each figure.

Hua Bei instinctively nervous, and the chaotic thoughts in her mind were suddenly retracted, and then she learned from the person in front of her, walked around the table, and began to distribute the printed documents in her hand one by one.

This scene looked strange, but everyone in the room did not smile at all.

Hua Bei walked cautiously, and then couldn't help but look at them curiously, but she could only recognize one or two faces as she had never liked to watch the news.

Most of these people are like clay sculptures and wood carvings, and they just carefully look through the "reports".

Every time she turned the page, her face seemed to be a little more gloomy, which made Hua Bei more and more nervous, until she walked in front of Shi Shengcun and unexpectedly gained a gentle look.

"Thank you." Shi Shengcun whispered, took the piece of paper, but didn't look at it, just looked at the identity card on Hua Bei's clothes, and then moved away.

This made her even more confused, and it wasn't until Hua Bei walked out of the door in a daze and came to the hallway that she suddenly reacted.

Just now, the head of Shi seemed to smile at her?

It must be an illusion......

She thought, and continued to run downstairs mechanically, waiting for the assignment.

……

Next, it was back and forth, and her movements gradually became sharp from the rusty at the beginning.

The news she heard became more and more shocking, and although she couldn't remember the details, she also knew that the sensation caused by the incident overseas seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

Especially after the federal government took the lead in expressing the authenticity of the evidence, the tide of public opinion became more and more terrifying, and more and more media voices were not limited to the official media and big newspapers, but also quickly evolved into a national condemnation.

Mass demonstrations are taking place in more and more areas.

asked Xia Guo to give a positive response, demanded that the murderer be punished, and demanded that the "culprit" be handed over.

More and more eyes are coming together.

Compared with the voices of ordinary foreign people, the voices of various major countries carry more weight.

However, in the face of this unprecedented spearhead of public opinion, Xia Guo has always maintained an ambiguous silence.

In the past, he actively spoke out in the face of global events, but now he seems to be dumb and has not made any response.

On the premise that the government has not expressed its position, the domestic mainstream media can only mechanically forward irrelevant news.

As a result, the huge Xia Kingdom is like an island in the raging sea, quiet, peaceful, but like something brewing.

However, in such a large wave, information cannot become an island.

Finally, as time goes by, more and more news from the "outside" inevitably spreads on the Internet, and gradually spreads under the impetus of some self-media and some unknown forces.

More and more domestic netizens began to pay attention to this matter, spontaneously discussed it on the Internet, and anxiously waited for the government's response.

And with this eerie silence, some people who were still skeptical of the "evidence" began to waver.

After all, silence can also be equated with default in some cases.

In this silence, a morning passed quietly.

Inside the Specialized Department building.

People were still busy bringing information into the room, but no orders were forthcoming.

This made the atmosphere in the building increasingly dull and eerie.

……

When Hua Bei was rotated by the rest of the office, it was exactly half past twelve.

In those quiet areas of the office, lunch boxes are already being distributed.

"Hua Bei, it's been a busy morning, let's eat." A colleague put the chopsticks horizontally on the lunch box and handed it to her, Hua Bei waved her hand and said a little reluctantly, "No need, I'm ...... I'm not hungry. ”

The man glanced at her, but did not continue to persuade her.

Hua Bei sat blankly at her workstation and looked at the lit computer screen.

The page on the screen happens to be the largest video website abroad, and I don't know who opened it, showing the page of "the hottest video at the moment".

You don't even need to look at the text, just by looking at the video cover, you know that it's almost all about it.

Hua Bei thought for a while, put on the headphones, then moved the mouse, swiped, and clicked on a video at random.

I don't know which country it is in the background, the sun is shining, and the streets in the picture are crowded with people.

They crowded into the streets, holding signs with huge black characters in their hands, and countless hands and fists were raised in the crowd, shouting something.

It's not English, and she doesn't understand it, but the video is subtitled, with words such as "hand over the murderer Cheng Lin" and "Petition for the victims."

Hua Bei looked at it for a few seconds, turned it off, and opened a new one.

This time, it seems to be England, there are iconic buildings in the picture, the sky is overcast, it is raining, people are wearing transparent raincoats, standing in front of a certain building, holding protest slogans and white flowers, and some people are holding black and white "posthumous photos".

In the video, a reporter is interviewing.

In the midst of the uproar, a demonstrator standing in front rushed up, grabbed the microphone, looked at the camera with a pair of angry eyes, and shouted in English:

"Cheng Lin, he deceived the whole world! He betrayed humanity! He's a demon! Must go to hell! To hell!! ”

"Smack!" Hua Bei in front of the screen instinctively shuddered, and clicked the mouse to close the video.

I closed the website again, and instead followed the navigation of the web page and entered the domestic online communities and forums.

However, no matter what platform she opened, almost all she saw were attacks, curses, and curses on Cheng Lin......

Obviously, at the moment when the government is silently responding, at the moment when the authenticity of the evidence is "acquiescing", and when people know for the first time that in reality, there is really a person "Cheng Lin" who is holding a "high position" in the Ministry of Special Affairs......

The tiger of public opinion is rapidly devouring the "ascendant" who was praised on the "altar" in the past......

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat."

For some reason, Hua Bei suddenly remembered this sentence.

She witnessed the words on the Internet, as if she had seen the collapse of a non-existent "god statue".

At this moment, even if she is not very smart, she also realizes what will happen in the end if the incident continues to ferment.

Billions of people around the world have condemned it, and hundreds of countries in the world have joined forces to "sanction", can Xia Guo withstand such a big pressure?

Or are you willing to bear it?

Thinking of this, she turned off the computer at once, and then lay down on the table, her body began to tremble, and she began to tremble like chaff!

The face of the brain mileage forest kept popping up, disappearing, popping up, disappearing......

Some clerks looked at it in bewilderment, but they didn't ask much, and in the huge building, the flowers that shrank in the corner of the office area were so inconspicuous.

……

……

The clock is still ticking.

The storm on the Internet has become more and more violent, yet the mainstream media has remained silent.

There is a suffocating, insane silence.

Gradually, even the people in the Secret Department building began to wonder.

They looked in the direction of the room in confusion, wondering what the people were waiting for.

In the morning, silence is to see the situation change before making a decision.

So in the afternoon, the global public opinion environment has become so obvious, in the face of joint pressure from various countries, why are they still silent?

Or rather, what exactly are you waiting for?

No one knew, so everyone could only continue to be anxious.

……

17:00 p.m

It's evening again.

Public opinion has finally reached its peak, like a powder jar, as if it will explode at the slightest shock.

More and more people began to call, trying to get instructions, repeating the explanations over and over again, and if they dragged on, there would be a big mess.

in the conference room.

The people at the table were still seated, papers scattered on the table like a thick snow, almost covering the table.

Some people stopped looking, just silently, watching the afterglow of the setting sun light up the room little by little.

Finally, when the latest documents arrived, one of them could no longer sit still, and he pinched the thin piece of paper, and the sunlight hit the paper as if it was about to burn, and his fingers seemed to be too hot to grasp:

"Can't wait any longer."

The voice echoed through the room, not very loud, but firm.

"Hasn't he moved yet?" Another person asked.

Immediately, Shi Shengcun glanced at the communicator placed next to his hand, and his expression changed:

"It's not moving, it's been a whole day, he must have known the news, but he hasn't moved, and he's still in the No. 16 spiritual land."

"What is he doing?"

"Fishing."

Silent.

"Hehe, okay, good fishing, the whole world is in chaos, he is still fishing...... What exactly does he want to do? One finally couldn't help but pat the table.

Shi Shengcun's eyelids drooped: "Perhaps, it's waiting for our attitude." ”

After a short silence, another person sighed, shook his head and said, "Sure enough, it's still young, young people are always so temperamental." ”

There was obvious anger hidden in the tone of the sentence.

This is anger at Cheng Lin and fear of the terrible consequences that may come.

"How long will it take for Liyang to come back?" Another asked in an anxious tone.

Shi Shengcun hesitated and was about to answer, when suddenly the communicator on the table rang, the voice was very harsh, he picked it up gently, pressed the answer button, and put it down after a while: "Liyang is back." ”

In the conference room, the atmosphere changed suddenly.

One of them stood up with a loud bang and said coldly: "Since that's the case, act immediately!" Isn't he waiting for our attitude? Then ...... Give it to him! ”

In the uproar, the figures around the long table stood up one after another, and Shi Shengcun also got up, his eyes lowered, he sighed imperceptibly, and said:

"Yes!"
