Chapter 80 [4000 word chapter] Rules completion and [The lamp that fears loneliness]
"Taku... Takumi..."
Everyone in the Criminal Division was stunned on the spot, and then felt horrified.
I don’t know who it was, but the first person to react was: “Quick, go call the red shirt!”
Someone else shouted: "Go and take a look at the door of the building!"
Everyone realized that the weird taxi was probably parked there.
"quick!"
Everyone filed out of the conference room door and ran towards the windows on the front of the building.
Someone was shouting the names of Hong Shi and Saury in the corridor. There were messy footsteps and the sound of the door being banged. It was noisy.
Rushing to the window, everyone looked down.
There was dead silence at the door of the building——
The taxi never showed up.
"Check the surveillance!"
Sequoia said and walked to the property monitoring room on the first floor without looking back.
"There's nothing!"
Looking at the quiet door on the surveillance screen of the Property Department of the headquarters building, Hong Shi slammed the table and glared at the person on duty that night.
"Are you sure this is tonight's surveillance video?"
"you……"
The attendant was obviously shocked by her, and said tremblingly: "You can look at the date and time above."
"Don't ask, this date cannot be faked."
Saury, who was reading the latest Conan comics at the door, said: "What happened tonight can only explain one thing -"
"Have the weird rules been upgraded?" Hong Shi said.
"It may not be an upgrade. It may just be to complete the rules...after all, people have been missing these past few days."
At this time, no one cared about why Saury suddenly became interested in this case.
What's more important is the information revealed in his words - the weird rules are complete.
Referring to the example of Takumi Ishida who just disappeared, as long as it is late at night, the weird taxi can take away anyone in the Criminal Division at any time without warning.
Maybe, in two days, the rules for taxis will be completed again, and people can be taken away at any time throughout the day.
"Let's go,"
Hong Shi had a solemn look on his face, "Go to the conference room upstairs."
The conference room was brightly lit.
The criminal police officers who were in a life-or-death situation all looked ugly. Tetsuo huddled in the corner of the venue, covering his head and saying nothing.
The situation is very serious. Even Tetsuo's presence cannot protect everyone's safety. Is there any other way...
"It's so frustrating!"
A police officer suddenly stood up and slapped the table with a thud, "We are the most elite criminal police officers in the police department, what's the point of holding them all here?"
Are we just waiting to die like this? Even if we are asked to go out and fight that taxi driver, even if we strap a bomb and die together with that bastard taxi, it doesn't matter!
But waiting like this... waiting to die like this is too frustrating!"
His words obviously resonated with everyone, and everyone started making noises, refusing to sit here and wait for death.
"You guys calm down first,"
Shiratori stood up, "Is this the time to be impulsive? Not to mention whether you can find the taxi, what will happen even if you find it?"
Do you really think you can blow up a bomb just by holding it?
That stuff is grotesque, grotesque! Understand?
They only follow their own rules, and only weird rules can be dealt with, even if they use nuclear weapons, they may not be effective!"
After Bai Niao said this, everyone gradually became quiet.
"But," someone said, "You can't just do nothing and wait for the other party to take everyone away one by one, right?"
"otherwise……"
Muraoka Kao suggested: "If you really have to, you can try that lamp?"
The two investigators from the Bizarre Investigation Section instantly understood that Muraoka Hanao was referring to the "Light of Fear of Loneliness", while everyone else was confused.
"joke,"
Hong Shi immediately objected, "You don't know the rules that come with that [Lamp], do you?"
Seeing everyone's eyes widening, Red Shirt probably explained the rules of [Lamp] to everyone - any living creature shrouded in the light of this lamp cannot be taken away by a third party unless it chooses to leave.
"but,"
Hong Shi continued: "[Lamp] also has a little-known hidden rule - no living creature can be shrouded in its light for more than an hour, otherwise it will never get out."
"Stay inside, come out in less than an hour, and then... go in again?" someone asked.
"It's not a continuous hour, but a total. A total of one hour, do you understand?"
"Besides this lamp, is there any other way?"
"For the time being..." Red Shirt said, "But don't be discouraged, we are still looking for a solution."
"[The lamp that fears loneliness],"
Shiratori looked at all the members of the Criminal Division in the conference room,
"Everyone, there is currently only one way to ensure our survival. The price we need to pay has just been made clear by the red-shirted master. Please make your own decision, and please be prepared for the worst.
In addition, the headquarters has agreed to allow family members to visit the building, and you can call the people you want to see... Of course, you can also write down what you want to say on letter paper."
…
After the meeting, Hong Shi used his personal connections to invite Frogman, another investigator from the Headquarters' Odd Investigation Section, and Saury, and the four of them studied the case together.
Redshirt originally planned to invite Crow. But after Crow asked for leave from the headquarters, he completely lost contact.
As the time approached late at night, the four people turned over the case file, but could not find a better way to crack it.
"Send a request for support to the Oddity Investigation Sections across the country,"
Hong Shi said: "Perhaps, the investigation class in which area has encountered a similar situation can help us open up our ideas. It would be better if there are investigators who have dealt with such bizarre incidents to help."
Requesting support from other areas doesn't happen often...unless it's a particularly critical situation.
Because once you accept support, it is equivalent to accepting a favor from the other party. Sooner or later, this kind of favor must be returned. If you return a favor under the weird rules, you may not know which time you will fall into it.
"Would you like it?"
The frogman said: "Let's wait and see... After all, if only one person disappears every night, the situation is not particularly critical. The four of us just met and haven't had time to fully discuss it. Maybe we will come up with a solution tomorrow.
Woolen cloth."
"Anyway, let's write out the support request first,"
Red Shirt said: "Let Kao Muraoka draft the manuscript, and I will come up with a draft tonight. If you can't think of a way to crack it tomorrow, send a request for support immediately. If the time comes when you really need to return the favor.
, I’ll take care of it.”
When Hong Shi said this, there was nothing to argue about.
Kao Muraoka lay on the computer and started typing——
[This class has recently encountered a series of bizarre taxi disappearances, involving all the police officers of the Criminal Division of Jing'an Police Station. Now we urgently need the help of all colleagues. The specific situation is as follows...]
As Hanao Muraoka was typing, he felt that the light seemed a little dim, so he turned on the desk lamp next to him.
The light illuminated the computer monitor and pierced his eyes.
He stretched out his hand to turn on the lamp, and a shadow crawled onto his face.
"Have you ever written a suicide note before?"
As Anda spoke, he seemed to feel that the light was a little dark, and turned his body to let out the light from the ceiling light in the conference room.
The light also shone on his face, making it bright.
After writing a few lines on the letter paper, Anda suddenly raised his head, "Gu Xingjun? I'm talking to you..."
"Why write something like that..."
"Gu Xingjun is so strong,"
Anda sighed, "To be honest, this is my third suicide note... The first time was because I was caught by my father for stealing pocket money and was put in solitary confinement... In fact, I had no intention of putting it into practice. It was just a scare.
his.
The second time was because of broken love, the unforgettable first love.
Bastard...I didn't expect that the third time was because of a broken taxi...
Alas, the ups and downs of life are really unpredictable... I am still young, as young as a flower, in the period of vigorous development, and I have just reunited with my childhood sweetheart, the goddess Mizutani Nobuko. Everything is so beautiful, so full.
I hope...all this will happen to a broken car..."
Anda kept mumbling while writing.
When it comes to Anda, Gu Xing goes in one ear and out the other.
He folded his arms and was thinking hard.
Three days have passed, and the rules of the Dusky Crow can be borrowed again. How should I use the rules to get rid of...or, in other words, contain the taxi weirdness?
The biggest trouble now is that the taxi has completely disappeared, and even a head-on confrontation has become a luxury.
Otherwise... I might as well find a way to kidnap Anda tomorrow night, take him out secretly, and see if the taxi will come to him... Anyway, I feel like I can fight against the taxi.
puff……
It was so outrageous that Gu Xing laughed in anger at himself. He could have thought of such a stupid method... If Anda really fell into the trap, Gu Xing estimated that he would have no choice but to jump off the building to apologize.
He turned his head and glanced at Anda.
Like a fool, the other party bared his teeth at him and continued writing a "suicide note".
Gu Xing took a deep breath and continued to think hard——
Or, sneak out quietly and hide near the headquarters building. If the weird taxi wants to take away colleagues from the Criminal Division, even if it doesn't show up at the door of the building, it should still be operating in the nearby area.
You can't kill people thousands of miles away, that would be too buggy.
When he had a battle of wits with Fujino before, Gu Xing really didn't expect that one day he would have such a bold idea to take the initiative to have a weird duel.
In short, we can't delay it any longer. At this moment, the atmosphere inside the Criminal Division can already be described as tragic.
Although Shiratori repeatedly emphasized that the department allows family members to visit, colleagues unanimously chose not to tell any family members. As for the reason why they cannot go home in the near future, they all said that they were handling a major case that required strict confidentiality.
Since death is inevitable, let your loved ones at home not be like the police officers and endure the torture of tragedy that may strike at any time.
Everyone wanted to do a lot of things and say a lot of things, but it seemed that the only thing left was to wait for death. It was sad and funny at the same time.
Time passed slowly, and another night came quietly.
"I'm going to find that [Lamp]..."
In the conference room, a colleague suddenly stood up and said,
"Dear colleagues!
Have you ever thought that if you were trapped by that [Lamp], you could at least survive?
When family members want to see you, they can also see our situation through the glass in the observation room, and even chat and talk together.
Although...it does feel a bit like visiting a prison, but I heard that you can use mobile phones in the observation room. In this way, surfing the Internet will not be affected at all, and you can also video meet with family and friends at any time. Except that you can't go out, everything is fine.
Not bad.
Everyone, think about it carefully, what will happen if you are taken away by that weird taxi? You will definitely die. Think about our relatives, how can they bear such bad news?"
"That's true... indeed..."
Several police officers who thought they might be taken away by the next taxi were a little moved after hearing these words.
Yes, no matter what, let’s survive first.
Moreover, being trapped now may not mean being trapped forever.
It is said that there is a level difference between the rules of weirdness. If one day, the weirdness investigation department comes up with a weirdness with a higher level of rules than [Lamp], it is possible to take everyone out of the observation room.
Although during the previous impassioned speeches, everyone was shouting to confront the taxi monster head-on, and the performance was very passionate, but when they were really immersed in the atmosphere of waiting for death, and faced with the scene of being randomly shot like a teacher calling someone by name, this
This torture became more and more terrifying, easily destroying the last willpower of the police officers.
"Oh," someone muttered, "If I had known this, I wouldn't have stayed with Tetsuo..."
"Stop talking!"
A colleague on the side interrupted him, "What's the use of saying that when you're in such a situation?"
silence……
"No matter what you decide,"
The colleague who first made the suggestion walked towards the door of the conference room, "I want to find the [Lamp] before the weird rules happen tonight!"
"Hey, wait a minute!"
"What's the rush? Let's all work together."
When the colleague was about to reach the door, several more people stood up and walked towards the door.
Others suddenly realized a problem——
If all these people enter the observation room, the probability of the remaining people being picked by taxis will be greatly increased.
Then... let's all go find [Lamp]!
No matter what, even if you lose your freedom, living is better than dying.
The police officers stood up one after another and rushed towards the door of the conference room one by one.
The first colleague grabbed the door handle of the conference room and was about to open the door.
At this time, the door opened by itself.
Tetsuo stood at the door, his eyes bloodshot...
