The small conference room of the M City Archives was crowded with people inside and out.Yu Di, chief of the police station, and Wang Xi, head of criminal investigation of the Security Department, sat side by side, looking at the person involved in the disappearance with complicated eyes.
Li Xiangzhe knocked on the door before entering.
"Captain." He handed Wang Xi the procedures for the press conference of the Security Bureau in the afternoon, and at the same time looked at Zhou Shen thoughtfully.
Zhou Shen, the office director of the M City Archives, suddenly reappeared in his home after a week of disappearance.After Huang Zi, the secretary of the archives office, reported the case, the M City Police Department and the Security Department included Zhou Shen's disappearance in the recent disappearance cases.But unlike other cases, he returned a week later unscathed.Moreover, it was early in the morning when the security department was going to hold a press conference.
Yu Di leaned on the sofa, closed her eyes and rubbed her temples.Although it was a good thing that Zhou Shen came back safely, there was some inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
"Are you really just going on vacation?"
The morning light fell on the young man's cheeks, and the clean and clear eyes made people believe unconsciously.Wang Xi gritted his back molars, frowned slightly, and looked away from him.
"That's right, officer, my bus ticket and tickets are all here, you can check them."
"However, when your secretary Huang Zi reported the case, he said that you could not be contacted and did not leave any information. The police station has been monitoring your phone, and you are not in the service area, so no one can be contacted."
Zhou Shen scratched his hair in embarrassment: "I'm going to climb the mountain, and the signal is not good. But I have submitted all my annual leave applications."
Li Xiangzhe brought Huang Zihongfan to the conference room. The little secretary heard this from outside the door, and then argued loudly: "Impossible, Director Zhou, you didn't submit any annual leave application! The last thing you said before you left was to ask me to sort out C15 I will write a report and call you after the file in the locker."
Yu Di finally opened his eyes, Li Xiangzhe looked a little complicated, and said in a low voice: "When we searched for the first time, we really didn't see the annual leave application, but just now when we went to the personnel department again, we found that Zhou Shen's annual leave application was at the bottom of the file .”
When the matter came to this point, it seemed that it had become an oolong incident of the little secretary's false report.Wang Xi's cell phone rang suddenly, and he went outside to answer the call.
Yu Di looked into Zhou Shen's eyes again, pure as a newborn baby, no one would think that a person with such eyes would deceive the entire archives, police station and even the security department.
Wang Xi walked back quickly: "Zhou Shen, Commander Liao requested that you need to go with us to the Security Department to do some investigation."
Zhou Shen nodded with a smile: "Okay." Without any hesitation.Wang Xi met his eyes again, his unfounded trust and sincerity made him suddenly feel that his judgment was a bit wrong.
Yu Di and Li Xiangzhe lost a wink.
Wang Xi and Zhou Shen walked in front, while Li Xiangzhe stared at Zhou Shen's back.For a moment, the police officers of the police station and the staff of the archives suddenly froze in their footsteps.Everything stopped, only Wang Xi and Zhou Shen were still walking forward.
The stagnation of time did not last long, but it was enough for Yu Di and Li Xiangzhe to make a judgment.
"He's Evolver." Yu Di quickened her pace, her expression became more gloomy.
After seeing off Zhou Shen and the police officers, Huang Zi let out a long breath and strolled back to his office.The vanilla milk tea was still steaming. He held the cup with both hands, and put his feet up on the desk.
The phone rang softly, and he picked it up and put it next to his ear, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened.
"Well, let's go home for dinner tonight."
The press conference was unsurprisingly canceled, and the media crowd outside the archives caused some traffic jams.A few cars scraped at the intersection, hurting passers-by.
Gong Ziqi subconsciously helped the boy who was standing unsteadily holding a paper bag beside him, and almost fell to avoid the electric car.He grabbed the boy's arm and pulled him to his side: "Hey, be careful with the car."
"Ouch!"
The boy staggered and stood still, turned his head and gave him a grateful smile, raised his hand and loosened the scarf: "What's wrong? It's so blocked?"
"The press conference of the archives...cancelled." Gong Ziqi froze for a moment when he saw his face clearly.The boy shrank back, then narrowed his eyes with a smile, put his finger on his lips and shook his head.Gong Ziqi looked to the side, and the MV of this talented music boy was playing on the large electronic screen of the surrounding CC Commercial Street. Many fans gathered below, shouting "Mother Cai Cai loves you!"
Even if Cai Chengyu is used to it, it is still a little embarrassing to encounter such a thing.He scratched his head and whispered, "I ran out secretly, so keep quiet."
Gong Ziqi pulled him to the pedestrian street beside him: "I'm lucky today, I met a big star." Cai Chengyu tightened his scarf, looked left and right, no one found him, and then quietly said, "Thank you, what's your name?"
"...Gong Ziqi."
His voice seemed to have magic power, Gong Ziqi looked at his smiling eyes covered by the scarf, and answered unconsciously.
Cai Chengyu held a takeaway paper bag in his hand, and glanced at his phone: "Oh, why is it only half an hour, I have to go back quickly." He said goodbye in a hurry: "Gong Ziqi, I'm leaving first! Don't tell others that I'm here ah!"
"...Okay." Gong Ziqi murmured.
The figure of the talented music boy quickly disappeared into the crowd. For some reason, Gong Ziqi became curious, took out his mobile phone and clicked on Cai Chengyu's encyclopedia, and suddenly saw a sentence in the short interview.
"Your favorite food? Shrimp fried in oil."
The takeaway paper bag he was carrying just now seemed to come from a small shop nearby that is famous for fried fried shrimp.
There was another noise ahead, but it was not because of the traffic jam, but from a few girls. The brand advertisement endorsed by Cai Chengyu is playing on the large LED screen. Cai Chengyu on the big screen tilts his head and smiles, pointing out of the camera and whispering: "Every time I meet you unexpectedly, it is my little luck."
Gong Ziqi looked at the handsome and striking Cai Chengyu on the screen, and thought of Cai Chengyu who was hiding from the scooter just now holding fried fried shrimp takeaway, so he laughed out loud for some reason.
Behind the CC Entertainment Building not far away, there was an off-road vehicle parked in a dark alley around the corner.Liang Pengjie was wearing a dark brown jacket, leaning against the wall to check his phone.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his hand and shook the positioning device in his hand: "Huang Zi, you are late."
Huang Zihongfan, who was still wearing a neat but ill-fitting uniform, rolled his eyes at him, opened the car door, saw that a person was already seated in the back seat, and his expression changed unpredictably.
Liang Pengjie closed the car door, pressed a few times on the complicated console in front of him, and the car quickly left the alley.
"Pengpeng, are you picking me up today or the prince?" Huang Zi turned his head and smiled: "Prince, long time no see."
In the Security Department, the white light wall was filled with silent coldness. Zhou Shen looked at the electronic handcuffs on his hands, and stared at Wang Xi with a look of disbelief. After receiving no response, he turned to ask Li Xiangzhe: "What are you doing?" What do you mean? Didn't you do an investigation?"
"We need to confirm one thing... if you are not willing to tell us yourself."
Wang Xi coughed, pulled Li Xiangzhe aside, walked forward by himself, and looked at Zhou Shen.
"If you know what we're talking about, you'd better answer truthfully."
Zhou Shen said angrily inexplicably, "What are you talking about? Illegal detention!"
At this moment, a pair of warm hands gently supported his cheeks, and Wang Xi said in a gentle and deep voice: "Don't worry, look into my eyes."
Zhou Shen suddenly found that there seemed to be smoke lingering in Wang Xi's pupils.
——Are you Evolver?
- what is that... I don't know...
——Where have you been missing these days?
——In the mountainous area of H City, I went to climb a mountain...
--Who are you?
——Zhou Shen...
—Did anyone move your eyes?
--have no idea……
The smoke cleared from Wang Xi's eyes, he stretched out his hand to embrace the fainted Zhou Shen, turned his head and said, "He really doesn't seem to know. There is no mistake or omission in his consciousness."
The deserted color of Guangbi weakened, Li Xiangzhe stepped forward and whispered: "But he must be Evolver! He is not controlled by my time."
"So there are only two possibilities. Either, everything he said is true, and he is a hidden Evolver. Or, there is an ability we don't know that changed his consciousness, and it's all a bureau."
Wang Xi placed Zhou Shen on the test bench, raised his eyes and asked Li Xiangzhe, "Which one do you think it is?"
Li Xiangzhe didn't pause at all: "I doubt Zhou Shen."
"why?"
"When we first searched the office, we did not see his annual leave application. And his mobile phone was monitored all the time, and he was not in the service area from beginning to end."
"Could that be the work of someone else in the archives?"
"Do you doubt the C&C people? No." Li Xiangzhe said firmly: "Of all of them, only Zhou Shen is not controlled by time. All the staff of the archives have been strictly screened, and there will be no Evolver."
"Tight?" Wang Xi narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Isn't there an Evolver here?"
Li Xiangzhe looked at Zhou Shen's pure and harmless sleeping face, and felt uncertain.
"Everyone in the archives must investigate again. You go in person."
Li Xiangzhe nodded: "Yes, captain."
Gong Ziqi was sitting in the corner of the restaurant, and the TV on one side was playing the evening news.The female announcer reported the cancellation of the press conference blankly, and the video broadcast at the same time was at the intersection with heavy traffic.
The Archives is close to CC Commercial Street, and the severity of the traffic jam exceeded Gong Ziqi's imagination. Even if he was on the spot, he didn't know that the serial car accident killed people.
The scene cuts to a nearby hospital, and it is nothing more than a scene of ambulances rushing to the wounded and family members arguing with each other.Then the reporter went to interview the attending doctor, Jian Hongyi, a famous doctor at M Central Hospital.
The same voice came from outside the TV, Gong Ziqi looked away and looked at Jian Hongyi who was sitting opposite him.
On TV, he briefly described the situation of the injured.He looked at himself coldly outside the TV.
"They all said you were dead. I don't believe it. There is no one I can't save."
Gong Ziqi lowered his head.
Jian Hong also took out a piece of paper from his breast pocket, which seemed to be a corner hastily torn from a notebook, on which two and a half circles were hastily drawn.
"Who else knows what's lurking in C&C except me?"
"Commander Liao."
Gong Ziqi knocked on the table: "Except for him, I only left you a message."
Jian Hong also nodded: "Then, what's your address?"
"Power, this is my code name."
