"The Lagus Foundation accused Haixing of abuse of power and limited ability to handle important projects assigned by the coalition government, and at the same time, there were news reports that Haixing Technology had close ties with the Barossa Group, and they jointly expressed their concerns to the Council, which then launched an anonymous democratic vote at Haixing Technology, with more than 96% of employees believing that Haixing Technology was not capable of undertaking the project."

Feng Chime holds a tablet in her hand, and reading international news has become her daily habit.

The tablet was a gift from Gough to her, and although it was not infected by the Devourer, he downloaded more than a dozen infected-themed games in it.

After reading the news, she glanced at Song Lan who was lying on the chair and looking up at the ceiling.

Although this man is awake, his soul does not know where he has drifted.

"The female ghost in white should have been eliminated, right?"

On this day, the big radish head and the others slept soundly, and they didn't wake up until now, and Xiaohe said that she didn't see anyone break into the room last night.

"Well, wiped out."

Song Lan was weak.

"Then why do you feel more tired?"

"There are some things that children still don't need to know."

After saying goodbye to Lu Xiang in the morning, Song Lan didn't want to do anything, just wanted to lie down on the chair.

Wind Chime nodded thoughtfully, and didn't ask.

She doesn't like to force others, and since she was a child, she has understood that if she wants to know a problem, she has to rely on herself to find the answer, so she decided to wait for the next time Lu Xiang came to visit Song Lan again, let Xiaohe take a look for her.

The adventurer's room was on the first floor of the inn, and there was a wall through it, so that the crane could poke his head in.

……

No one bothered her on this day, Song Lan lay on the chair until the morning like an old man basking in the sun, but unfortunately the sun could not penetrate the fog, and the temperature was a little too low recently, which made Song Lan, who has the physique of an elderly person, have to go back to the room and put a quilt on herself.

It's been almost a week since I arrived in the town, and the population of the town has risen to seven.

Dr. Shiratake adjusted the sign at the entrance of the town as soon as possible, changing the information of the town:

"Livability: 2 stars"

『Small Settlement』

『Recommended number of people: 10 or less』

"No Void Creatures"

And as a civilian worker, under the supervision and guidance of Director Lu, he finally recalled his true job, and it was a major mistake in his work to destroy the road surface with the insect swarm, causing huge economic losses.

So after defeating the grotesque, Song Lan did not forget his original intention and returned to his essence, and began to do what a civilian should do - he asked Father Bruno to sort out the story about the "confessional" pit and the "monster of thought" before going to bed last night and send it to him.

This is undoubtedly a difficult task.

These texts are stored in the Eclipse Cult's library, and the Eclipse Cultists do not like the Internet, they never upload information related to the secrets of the Church on the Internet, so Father Bruno can only rely on his own impressions to restore the stories in his memory in as much detail as possible.

In the afternoon, Song Lan finally received these "Chronicles of Thought Monsters and Mines" dictated by Father Bruno and written by artificial intelligence, which was different from the chaotic ordering method in the classics, and they rewrote the order of each event through time as much as possible.

He sat alone in his room, reading the chronicles with great relish.

If we put aside the occult elements such as religion and rituals, Song Lan finds that these stories are essentially the same as the adventurer's notes, which are all through personal perspectives and experiences to illustrate the process of the birth of an unknown monster, and almost all monsters have experienced the process of a female ghost in white.

At first, they were only observed by humans, unable to inflict substantial damage on those who saw them, and then as the discussion became more extensive, the monsters grew in power, and if left unchecked, they would eventually kill the first person to observe them, almost without exception.

It's a rather deformed relationship of coexistence.

Theoretically, the first person to become aware of their existence is the "parents" of these monsters, who give birth to them by spreading the news and spreading panic, and when they "grow up", they will kill their "parents" to make themselves whole.

But the question is, what do these stories have in common?

Song Lan began reading with such questions in mind from the beginning, and then he discovered that although almost all of these stories took place within the Eclipse Sect, they were scattered all over the Third Neutral Country, and each person came into contact with the monsters in a different way.

Some people are sacrificed through bloody and evil sacrifices, some people are in accidents, but there are also some low-level believers who have registered in the Eclipse Cult but have never participated in any church activities when they are farming, and they have witnessed monsters in the fields.

They appear in a way that covers almost all the scenes of human daily life, and it is likely as simple as if you went out to work today, only to be entangled by these monsters on the way home.

This made Song Lan feel that there must be a very important part missing.

It's a pity that he is not in the Third Neutral Country now, and he is still in a hostile state with the Eclipse Sect, and it is impossible for him to investigate all the life experiences and social relationships of these people, not to mention that more than half of the people in the story died at the hands of monsters, and there is no proof of direct death.

Song Lan had to criticize the people who recorded these stories, their perspective was limited to the person concerned himself, ignoring other aspects of background investigation, which showed that their criminal investigation experience was almost zero, and suggested that Lu Xiang publish a book in the future to guide them.

His experience was also formed by Lu Xiang's side, but it was a pity that there was no person like Lu Xiang in the Eclipse Sect, otherwise they might have been able to investigate the truth about the monster and the pit more than ten years ago.

When Lu Xiang came to his mind, the call from the supervisor really came.

"I received a notification from the Rescuer Service Center this afternoon that I am going on a business trip to the 7th district tomorrow."

On the surface, it is under the banner of inviting outstanding graduates to return to school on the school anniversary, but in fact, at this juncture, she must be called to the core area for something else.

"What's new?"

"I see that the situation in the town has almost stabilized, and I also helped you book a ticket to the seventh district, and you will hand over the work with Bai Zhu tonight, and come back to pack your luggage."

"But what if I'm gone and someone destroys the property?"

Song Lan raised legitimate concerns.

"That's what I thought."

Lu Xiang said, "But I found that you left there to cause more damage, so you better come back." ”
