The special departments in the far away city are busy on a daily basis.

The troubles of the White Mist Zone still exist, but the impact has gradually stabilized over time, stopping at a level where people will pay attention to it without paying too much attention to it.

The attention is because the white fog area is too conspicuous, a huge city, the area shrouded in white fog seems to have become a landmark landscape, no matter which angle you stand to take photos of the city, more or less you can take a corner of the white fog area into it, as a background scene.

The reason for not paying attention is that people do not enter the white fog area, or do not approach the white fog area, which has an impact on the lives of ordinary people close to nothing.

At first, people would protest because they didn't believe the so-called experts, and over time, people who didn't see anything happening became accustomed to it.

Except for a few stubborn ones who will protest regularly, and they also kind of treat this matter as a check-in item.

The sudden decline in the attention of ordinary people does not mean that special departments can be idle.

In the already busy work, a group was specially opened to monitor the white fog area every day, and a team of people had to be arranged to go in from time to time to check.

Those who go in early will more or less get lost or get a little injured, but it doesn't hurt, and when they go more often, they will naturally be familiar.

Now that white fog area is full of various network cables laid by special departments, just for positioning and convenient exploration.

The buildings in the White Mist Zone have remained untouched, not corroded or weathered, but there are no signs of human activity.

The temporary stronghold outside the White Mist Zone had long since been changed to a permanent station, and the special department simply chartered the entire small hotel at an extremely low price.

Anyway, there is no one living around here at all, so I can save a little bit.

Xia Chengyin walked in the corridor, stacks of papers in his hands, quickly starting from the top and turning them back one by one, and the turned papers were directly clamped to the end.

Halfway through, I suddenly found something wrong, and then fished the report paper to the front from the end, and turned it back and forth several times, and finally all the inch-headed police officers were in a ball, and even used unconventional forces.

It's all nonsense.

The inch-headed officer exhaled violently, and then swallowed back the grumbling in his stomach.

- No progress.

It is not an exaggeration to say that their exploration of the White Mist Zone has made no progress.

The exploration went smoothly, but it was too smooth and people couldn't help but wonder, where did the monsters reported by the team members before go in the White Mist Zone?

The White Mist Zone is very clean, and there is no supernatural existence except for the White Mist itself.

Clean, "eaten" clean.

Humans don't know how the supernatural disappeared, they only know that in the past, this area was more or less supernatural, and now all of them have disappeared without a trace.

Xia Chengyin scratched his head, his image had been neglected in the recent busyness, and his hair had accumulated.

Gotta find a time to cut my hair...... Why didn't you go after the supernatural, things are still so cumbersome.

The inch-headed police officer continued to walk forward, he planned to take a look outside the fog area, but after walking a few steps, Xia Chengyin met Qi Zhuyue in the corridor who was spinning back and forth in front of a door.

She was not wearing overalls today, but her own clothes, clutching the shawl on her shoulders with both hands, looking a little nervous.

was so nervous that he didn't notice someone approaching, if it hadn't been for Xia Chengyin to avoid it, the two would have collided by now.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Qi Zhuyue realized it and reacted slowly, "I was thinking about things just now, and I was a little distracted...... Senior Xia, I'm sorry! ”

Xia Chengyin didn't mean to blame, he glanced at the door on the side and asked, "What's inside?" ”

"My teacher ......," Qi Zhuyue sighed, "The bureau called me in the morning and said that the teacher refused to go back, and he had to stay outside this white fog area, what did he say...... You can see interesting images. ”

Xia Chengyin nodded when he heard this, he also heard a little.

The teacher about Qi Zhuyue is also a highly inspired person.

The other party is older, he has seen a lot of things, and in his own words, there are many pictures piled up in front of him, and he often can't distinguish between reality and illusion.

Qi Zhuyue's future is most likely the same, she still sees little now, and she can maintain her sanity.

Xia Chengyin deserted for a short time, and here Qi Zhuyue knocked on the door again.

"Teacher? Teacher, are you in there! She knocked on the door and shouted, "Teacher, you should go back, can I drive you back?" ”

After Qi Zhuyue finished shouting, there was a faint movement in the door.

It seems to be the sound of rubbing between the fabrics.

The sound went from far to near, from light to loud, and finally stopped at the door.

The door clicked and unlocked, and then a crack opened inward under the gaze of the two outside, and through the crack in the door it was dark inside, and the room was not lit, and then a cloudy white eye appeared from it.

Why is it white? Because I don't know what light-colored impurities are covered in the position of the black pupils, it is almost mixed with the whites of the surrounding eyes.

The person inside the door poked out a little again, and the two people outside the door could see that some elderly people inside the door were wearing a white sheet, looked at the two of them for a few seconds, and refused: "Don't go back." ”

"Teacher...... You've really been there...... Wait a minute! Don't close the door! ”

Qi Zhuyue was about to persuade two more words, but the people inside the door didn't want to listen anymore, and closed the door inwards by themselves, if Qi Zhuyue's hand hadn't shrunk quickly, her hand would have been pressed by the door panel.

Her teacher, it seems, treats everyone equally.

Whether Qi Zhuyue came to persuade or someone else came to persuade him, the people in the door were unmoved.

Xia Chengyin watched the whole scene from the sidelines, asking if he needed help.

Qi Zhuyue: "Help?" How can it help? ”

Xia Chengyin: "Help remove the door panel, and then you go inside and take people away?" ”

Qi Zhuyue: "...... That's still not necessary. ”

Qi Zhuyue sighed, she said that the bureau just hoped that she would come over and work hard, it didn't matter if she succeeded or not, there was no need to force it.

Xia Chengyin was more curious about what the person inside the door saw.

"Uh...... The teacher didn't tell me anything specifically. Qi Zhuyue groaned and held her chin, thinking there, "The more general ones are some descriptions of colors, large areas of white and a little bit of black...... The rest are featureless. ”

Sometimes it's narrative, like telling a story, and sometimes it's a description of a few rather grand scenes, which makes the listener dizzy and wants to pierce the eardrum, if only he couldn't hear it.

Only Qi Zhuyue can resonate a little, and was praised by her teacher for being teachable.

The former laughed awkwardly twice, and she wanted to be a little more mediocre if she could.

couldn't bring back people, Qi Zhuyue naturally had no reason to stay here anymore, she replied to the bureau with a message, and was ready to go back to continue recuperation.

Xia Chengyin sent Qi Zhuyue down by the way, and the two chatted a few words when they left.

Xia Chengyin asked Qi Zhuyue how she was recuperating recently, and the latter replied that she had not developed in the direction of her teacher, and it was still under control.

"Haha...... If she becomes the same as the teacher, she will probably ...... in the future" Qi Zhuyue was silent, to be honest, she didn't know what she would become if she really got to that point.

At best, like her teacher, crazy but still communicative, at worst...... In the future, colleagues will have to attend her memorial service!

Xia Chengyin saw that this topic was not easy to develop, so he changed to something else.

The two chatted back and forth, and still talked about the recent developments in the game.

As I said before, they have divided a group of people in the White Mist District to stay, but other work has not stopped, and even new ones have been added.

"Sister Chen and Bai Su have gone on a mission together......" Speaking of this, Qi Zhuyue paused, not knowing what she thought, but when she said it again, she changed, "By the way, Senior Xia, the escaped cultist you said you were going to track down before?" ”

"Ran away." Xia Chengyin said succinctly, "When I chased over, I only saw a piece of chicken feathers...... Literally, who knows what small rituals they performed to kill living creatures. ”

The blood of small animals smeared the entire room, so smoked that those who entered had to cover their noses, and an unknown circle was drawn in the center of the room.

Xia Chengyin also talked about the appearance of the cultist who ran away, and this time the roadside surveillance was much clearer, and he could roughly see the appearance of that person.

Foreigners, or mestizos.

A similar appearance was searched in China, and sure enough, there was no such person.

This is to be expected, and if it can be easily found, the cult will not be so difficult to eradicate.

Speaking of which, Chen Zi and they went...... It's the mental hospital that the little leader confessed, right? ”

"Ah, yes." After avoiding the topic for a long time or returning to before, Qi Zhuyue began to look at the ground in front of her toes, "I originally wanted to find me, but then I changed to Sister Chen." ”

"But-" Xia Chengyin dragged out his tone as he approached the door, "It seems that things are not going well." ”

Unsuccessful refers to the team next door who entered the psychiatric hospital in advance, and the bureau has also become nervous since the loss of contact, and it was not until Chen Zi's contact came back that the idea of continuing to send more manpower was temporarily stopped.

"That mental hospital...... Sounds like a wolf's den. Qi Zhuyue commented, "But if Bai Su is here, it should be no problem, right?" ”

The pace of the people around him suddenly stopped, Qi Zhuyue thought that she had said something wrong, and when she looked closely, she had arrived at the door.

The inch-headed police officer stood in the building and watched Qi Zhuyue step out.

Xia Chengyin lit a cigarette at the door, and the red fire flashed in the shadows, and then he said, "You seem to be ...... I trust the guy's look. ”

Qi Zhuyue's pace also froze, and then some images began to flash in her mind.

There are the temples in the original Kangtai Mountain, and there are also the ...... in the mountains and forests of Wenjia Village later. The various images are intertwined and finally converged into a single sentence.

"Because...... Is he a 'white man'? ”

Qi Zhuyue's words had a little wry smile in them.

She had some uncertain speculation.

But it was precisely because of this uncertainty and inexplicable sense of unease that the human beings did not say anything in the end.

Qi Zhuyue had no choice but to explain Bai Su's reputation in the bureau, although not everyone knew Bai Su, but when Bai Su's name was mentioned, he would know that his ability was very useful.

This is undeniable.

The small talk seemed to come to an end, and Qi Zhuyue studied whether there was a colleague's car that could take her back, or whether she could walk some distance and find a car by herself.

After all, around the White Fog Zone, no car dares to approach it now—cough.

Suddenly, an external force pounced, accompanied by a shocking cry of "Xiao Qi", Qi Zhuyue reflexively took it back, feeling that he had touched a ball of fabric and a little weight.

"It's Qi, not Qi...... Wait, teacher, what's wrong with you coming down? As soon as Qi Zhuyue turned around, she couldn't see her teacher's person, but she could see Xia Chengyin looking at her location in surprise.

The person Qi Zhuyue was dragging was not very tall, and the whole person was still very light.

The sheet was firmly over his head, leaving only a pair of cloudy eyes peeking through the cracks in the fabric.

"I see it...... I see it! A deep voice shouted, and a hand tucked away from the sheet was raised, "He is asleep...... Asleep, asleep! ”

Qi Zhuyue was shaken so much that she stumbled several times, and finally stood firm by holding on to the telephone pole on the side of the road.

"Okay, good, asleep, asleep...... Teacher, is there anything else you would like to say? ”

It was the same last time, Qi Zhuyue's teacher came to the White Mist Zone, and I didn't know what I saw and locked myself in the room alone for a long time, and when I came out, I chattered and asked the people from the special department to go underground.

The order of the person's speech is confused, and it takes a while to discern what he is talking about.

After sorting it out, the Special Services personnel found that the person was repeating a string of characters, which coincidentally corresponded to a number of the underground containment facility - [Listen to the Old Man].

The Special Services had recently discovered that the containment had more supernatural abilities than they thought, and were testing it, when they saw [Listen to the Old Man] turn to the camera with a crunch in his neck.

It was abrupt, and there were no signs.

Then, another old man's body appeared in the room, and [listening to the old man] said slowly to the other self, "Go and see the future." ”

Future? What to see in the future?

Someone behind the camera realized something, and hurriedly went to find a person in their special department whose ability was extremely scarce - a few words that could glimpse the future in a dream.

The capable man slept as requested, but when he woke up, his expression was very dazed.

It's a very foul ability, and every time you use it, you have to go through a long time of preparation.

However, this time is different from the previous ones, and the capable ones ...... He barely remembered anything, and the dream didn't seem to leave any impression on his memory.

…… No, there are.

The man was surrounded by a few people in a daze and slowly said a sentence: Bai Su can't be allowed to die.

Why? I don't remember, this is the only message left for him in the future.

Qi Zhuyue knew that this was because she knew about it through her teacher's relationship, and now her teacher was shouting again, so that she couldn't help but plan to write down something.

"Teacher, besides falling asleep, what else?"

"Dreams, sweet dreams...... Sweet dreams! The man waved his hand and finally pointed to the white mist, "Shhhh ”
