These people were stunned when they saw Wu Rendi and Yang Xiao. Apparently, the person who informed them did not say that Wu Rendi and Yang Xiao were here. Xiong Wanyi and Ximen Lian were fine, but the remaining people didn't look good when they saw Yang Xiao.
They were the ones whose souls were taken away by Yang Xiao in Qilin. Seeing Director Wu present, these people came over to say hello. Wu Rendi had never been in the habit of being polite and said directly to them: "Did Qiu Bulao ask you to come?"
Xiong Wanyi said with a smile: "That's not true. Our Director Qiu is not in the bureau. Director Gao asked us to come. He said that something might happen here and we need to come over to deal with the aftermath. He originally told us to come after dawn.
, we arrived a little early. I didn’t expect you to be here." When he heard that Qiu Bulao was not at the polling bureau, the muscles in the corners of Yang Xiao's eyes jumped a few times unconsciously, but Wu Rendi didn't have any unexpected reaction, turning back and pointing
The rotten bones said to Xiong Wanyi and the others: "You don't have to worry about anything else. Just deal with that and take it back to Gao Liang." Xiong Wanyi and Ximen Lian agreed, and then came over to beat me and Fatty Sun.
After saying hello, Xiong Wanyi chuckled and said: "Lazi, Fatty Sun, you two brothers have a bright future. When did you enter Room 6 and hang out with Director Wu?" After saying this, he paused, lowered his voice and said, "Brother.
I'm tired of asking, what big thing happened here? Did you alert Director Wu?"
How could I tell them this? I smiled and said nothing, but Fatty Sun laughed and began to talk nonsense: "I'm not telling you, bear, don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about. I
Can it be said that Director Wu has perfected his merits and came here to overcome the tribulation and prepare to become an immortal?" Xiong Wanyi's eyes widened immediately and he said: "I knew Director Wu was not a mortal. When did he fly into the sky? Was he transformed into an immortal or a warrior?
?" Ximen Lian kicked him from behind and said angrily: "Yuhua...return to the army? Can't you hear that Fatty Sun is talking nonsense? Do you believe this?" Xiong Wanyi retorted: "That's right.
Wu Rendi... Director Wu, let alone he is preparing to become an immortal, I believe even if gods descend to earth! Fatty, what are you laughing at? Is what you just said true or false?" Fatty Sun curled his lips: "Do you believe it or not?
…”
After Xiong Wanyi and Ximen Lian arrived, Fatty Sun and I basically had nothing to do. We wanted to go to Wu Rendi to ask about the earth beads again, but at this time he had already left the gate and left the footprints he had left at the gate.
All the traces were wiped away. At this time, the sky was getting brighter. The people in the second room were used to dealing with the aftermath, and they were familiar with the road. It didn't take long to dispose of the rotten bones and put them into a black plastic bag.
Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to ask Yang Xiao about the "Tianli Diagram" and "The Art of Integration of Humans and Ghosts". But Yang Xiao kept whispering something next to Wu Rendi. Director Wu's face remained expressionless.
After the rotten bones were installed, he said: "Yang Xiao stays, and the rest of the people will adjust the situation." As he said that, he glanced at Yang Xiao, and the hand holding the beaker suddenly opened up, and the beaker in his hand appeared out of thin air.
It disappeared and reappeared in Yang Xiao's hands. It was as if they had practiced beforehand. When the beaker disappeared, Yang Xiao had already reached out and grabbed it in the air, just like grabbing the beaker out of the air.
After staying in the polling bureau for a long time, things like this are no longer strange. However, Xiong Wanyi still came to me and whispered: "Lazi, what did Director Wu give Yang Xiao? Why does it look like horse dung?"
"Although I knew he was joking, I still rolled my eyes at him and said, "Have you ever seen such... beautiful horse dung?" It seems that earth beads are relatively rare items, and Xiong Wanyi also has them at the polling bureau.
It has been several years since I saw Di Zhu but I still didn’t recognize it.
There is no need to elaborate on how to return to the polling bureau. Wu Rendi went straight to Gao Liang's office as soon as he came back. No one knew what the two talked about specifically, but Director Wu was not seen walking out of the director's office until dark.
Later, I heard from the person on duty that night that the lights in the director's office were still on at four o'clock the next morning. When I saw Gao Liang again at work the next morning, Director Gao acted as if nothing was wrong, but Wu Rendi was missing.
.
It's been more than a month since I returned from Qilin City, and it's winter. Fatty Sun and I basically have nothing to do. In Hao Wenming's words, it's the off-season. There's nothing to do anyway, so I might as well do it after going to work every day. I went to the first room and took a bite, and then went directly to the information room and stayed there for a whole day. I didn’t understand why I was so interested in these seemingly boring information, but I just knew that when I read these information, I It was like being addicted to drugs, and I couldn't extricate myself. It wasn't until Ouyang came to the left to chase me after get off work every day (the rules in the data room are that investigators are not allowed to spend the night in the data room except under special circumstances), I reluctantly left. Leave and return to real life.
During this period of time, Monk Xiao still came to sit in the same room whenever he had something to do. He had a special status. Except for Fatty Sun, including Gao Liang, no one dared to mess with him. I don’t know what Monk Xiao was thinking.
In the poll bureau, it was Fatty Sun who didn't treat him as a dish, but he still wanted to get in front of Fatty Sun. One of them seemed to be unworthy, and the other was really old and disrespectful. Nothing good could happen if they got together.
Fatty Sun once let slip that when he was an undercover agent, he went to the Tiantian World to have a good time and drink. Monk Xiao's eyes lit up at that time, and he forced Fatty Sun to tell the details. He got tired of telling Fatty Sun, and finally threw him away.
They said, "Isn't this the human world every day? I'll take you there once in the evening. Don't wait until you leave and can't close your eyes." Fatty Sun and Monk Xiao may have felt that they were just two people and their confidence was a bit lacking, so they simply pulled me along.
Come in. It happened that the fifth room was starting its quarterly data statistics in those few days (except for special circumstances, idle investigators from other rooms were not allowed to enter). I was also bored and panicked. Fatty Sun was treating me, and it was a man like Tiantian Renjian.
Holy land, if you don’t go, it will be in vain...
We finally waited until after dark and the lights started to turn on. The three of us drove to Tiantian Renjing. It was different from what we expected. It was deserted and deserted. When we walked in and took a look, we found that the door had been sealed. When we inquired, it seemed that something had happened in Tiantian Renjing.
This afternoon, a large team of people from the police station came and immediately arrested people and sealed the store. However, we were not the only ones who were disappointed. There were several outsiders who came here before us. When they heard the news that Tiantian Renjian was sealed, one of them took the lead.
He said angrily to Monk Xiao: "Prostitutes are no longer allowed to use prostitution. Is there any royal law?" This made Monk Xiao incomprehensible.
We couldn't go to the world every day, so we had to find a big restaurant and eat a lot in there. Monk Xiao might feel that he was breathless, so when ordering, he didn't look at the dishes, but only looked at the prices.
Order whatever is more expensive. Fatty Sun only gasped when he ordered it: "Old Master Xiao, let me be clear first. I don't care about money, but you can't make it just like the last meal, right? After you finish this meal, you can just do that
What's wrong? I didn't say that, I'm the one who pays for the food, but your life is your own. If you want to be more open-minded, if you don't want to go to the human world every day, just cultivate yourself..."
Just when Monk Xiao was about to talk back, the three of our phones rang almost at the same time. The person calling Monk Xiao was Gao Liang’s secretary, and the people calling Fatty Sun and me were Hao Wenming and Po Jun. All three calls were from
One thing: quick ** to adjust the situation.
It looked like something big had happened, so we hurried back. When we returned to the polling bureau, we went straight to the conference room. It was packed with people. I took a quick look and found that except for Wu Rendi and Yang Xiao from Room 6, they were not there.
In addition, even Yang Jun, who had not been seen much, appeared. His white hair looked particularly eye-catching. At first glance, he thought it was Wu Rendi sitting there.
After seeing the three of us coming back, Gao Liang coughed in a formulaic manner, and the meeting officially began. First, as usual, a set of slide pictures were shown. The first thing that appeared on the screen was a vast white snow field, which was not accurate.
The address was just a series of gray dots faintly appearing in the vast whiteness. The next photo was still this snowy field, but the camera was zoomed in, and I finally saw clearly that the gray dots were wolves, to be precise.
Hundreds of wolves.
The remaining photos are also of these wolves, but the shooting locations have changed. They were in the snow, in the valley and in the woods. There is another photo of the wolves standing in a circle next to a hot spring, drinking water. No
After a while, the slide show was finished, and people started to talk quietly. It felt a little baffling to look at these photos. Gao Liang coughed again, and the conference room suddenly became much quieter.
Director Gao looked around the people in the conference room and then said slowly: "The photo is a satellite image from a week ago. The location is a section of the Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang. The wolves that appeared in it were identified by experts as Xinjiang gray wolves.
Not long ago, the Selikti Ranch near the photo location encountered several wolf disasters, and more than 600 cattle and sheep were lost. Fortunately, there were no casualties."
"Just wait a minute." Director Gao wanted to continue, but Monk Xiao interrupted him, "The wolf is also under our control?" Gao Liang glanced at him and sighed helplessly.
, said: "If you have any different opinions next time, wait until I finish speaking." He paused and continued, "There is nothing special about the previous photos. The most important thing is the following ones." Director Gao said
After that, the conference room became dark again, and two more sets of pictures appeared on the screen.
The first set of pictures is still the wolf pack just now. There is nothing special at first, but three figures appear vaguely on the edge of the photo. In all subsequent pictures, these three figures appear far away from the wolves. There are
It can be seen from several clear photos that they are two men and one woman. If these photos cannot explain anything, when the last picture appeared, Director Nicolas Hugo stood up in shock and pointed.
Looking at the photo, he blurted out: "Fenrir! God, this is the demon wolf Fenrir!"
The location in the picture is the hot spring where the wolves were gathering to drink water. Hundreds of wolves were divided into two rows. In the empty space in the middle lay a giant white wolf as big as a bear. The three people in the distance did not approach, but were far away.
Farther away, he was observing the giant wolf with a telescope.
Gao Liang waved his hand and signaled Director Hugo to sit down first and showed the last set of slides. There were only two photos in this set, which were full-length portraits of a man and a woman. The man was slightly fat and wore a
She wears glasses, her hair is a bit messy, and although her expression is smiling, she always seems to be peeking at people. The woman has a well-proportioned figure, and she also wears a pair of glasses. But her face is expressionless, and she doesn’t know when the photo was taken.
, who provoked her.
After looking at these two photos, the lights in the conference room were turned back on, but at this time, I saw that in addition to Hugo, Qiu Bulao and his deputy director Wang Ziheng opposite had ugly expressions on their faces.
Gao Li lit a cigarette, took a puff, picked up the slideshow of the last two people and said, "These two are old friends, Qiu Bulao, Wang Ziheng, don't you two have anything to say?"
Judging from Gao Liang's appearance, he seems to care more about the man and woman in the photo than the demon wolf Fenrir mentioned by Hugo. Moreover, Qiu Bulao and Wang Ziheng both looked embarrassed when they saw the photos of these two people.
, I don’t know what the relationship between them is. Gao Liang glanced at them and threw the slides on the table in front of Hao Wenming: "Hao Wenming, you should introduce it."
Director Hao was stunned for a moment. He didn't seem to expect that he would be asked to make the introduction. He glanced at Qiu Bulao and Wang Ziheng, and after hesitating for a moment, he put the two slides into the slide projector. The fat man appeared on the screen again.
Hao Wenming cleared his throat, pointed at the man on the screen and said: "Zhang Zhiyan, an Australian overseas Chinese, is... thirty years old, ostensibly the owner of a large Chinese restaurant chain in Australia..." Hao Wenming also wanted to say
He continued, but was interrupted by Gao Liang: "Go straight to the point! Tell it from Zhang Dongtian! Don't talk about useless things."
Director Hao was a little embarrassed to be scolded in front of so many people, but he was also scolded by Gao Liang. After a while, he returned to normal and said: "Zhang Zhiyan's grandfather Zhang Dongtian was a man who handled religious affairs during the Republic of China.
One of the founders of the committee, the Committee for Handling Religious Affairs, moved to Taiwan in 1949. At that time, most of the key members of the committee were disheartened and left the committee one after another and dispersed to various parts of the world, including Zhang Dongtian and another active member of the committee.
Molecule Meng 11."
Hao Wenming changed another slide, and the cold woman he saw just now appeared on the screen. Director Hao looked at her photo and said: "Meng Qiqi is the grand-niece of Meng Shiyi just mentioned. Now she is
25 years old, French overseas Chinese. He is a staff member of the non-exhibition restoration department of the Louvre Museum in Paris. Meng Shiyi has never been married, and his only relatives are his nephew Meng Changling and his wife and his grandniece Meng Qiqi."
At this point, Hao Wenming's face began to look strange, and his eyes kept glancing at Qiu Bulao and Wang Ziheng intentionally or unintentionally. When he spoke again, he began to hesitate: "Zhang Zhiyan and Meng Qiqi... two years ago," this
Before Gao Liang could slap the table, Qiu Bulao spoke first: "Let me tell you, it was the people from our second room who were thrown away in the first place." Seeing that Fatty Gao had no intention of objecting, Director Qiu remained silent for a moment before speaking.
He began: "Zhang Zhiyan and Meng Qiqi had been to the mainland at least two years ago. They were in a small town in the south. They didn't know where they got a Warring States Period painting by Ruan Liulang, the biggest tomb robber during the Republic of China.
Distribution map of tombs during the period.”
Speaking of this, Qiu Bulao paused for a moment, as if recalling the situation at that time, his face turned slightly red. He continued: "It happened that the ancient tomb they were looking for had been discovered not long ago, and the archaeological team was there to examine the ancient tomb.
The tomb was being excavated. Because we suspected that the tomb contained something that our polling bureau needed, several people from the second room and I also mingled with the archaeological team. Without alerting the archaeological team, we sneaked into the underground palace of the tomb in the middle of the night.
中. Just when we entered the main tomb chamber, we found that this man and woman were already in the main tomb chamber."
"At that time, our people were guarding the surroundings of the tomb. Logically speaking, it is impossible for these two people to appear in the tomb chamber. At that time, we all thought that the other party was a tomb robber, so we immediately took action." Qiu Bulao said at this point,
The blush on his face became more and more obvious, and he continued, "Later, we... suffered a little loss." As soon as Director Qiu finished speaking, he heard Director Gao snort.
Po Jun sat next to me, and he whispered in my ear: "They completely collapsed the tomb. Lao Qiu and Wang Ziheng buried them underground on the spot. Thanks to the fact that there are two rooms above."
The people who stayed behind dug these people out of the ground together with the archaeological team. But at that time, the only people under the ground were Qiu Bulao and Wang Ziheng. When did Lian Zhang Zhiyan and Meng Qiqi run out and were with them in the tomb?
I don’t even know what was taken from the house. At that time, almost all the major media went to the scene to grab the news. Our Director Gao spent a lot of effort to press the matter. Otherwise, our polling bureau would have been bathed in
Under the sun."
Qiu Bulao continued to say: "Later, after investigation, the identities of these two people were found out. However, they have never appeared in the mainland in the past few years. I thought I would never see them again, but I didn't expect that they would still be there.
Dare to come back again!" Director Qiu said the last sentence with a bit of gritted teeth.
Ximen Lian was an investigator under Qiu Bulao. Seeing that Qiu Bulao was a bit rude, he immediately changed the subject. He raised his hand and said, "Aren't there three people on the photo? Who is the other person?" Director Gao's secretary explained:
"The photo of this person was not taken well and there is some distortion. It is being repaired now."
"Everyone, can you listen to me?" Director Nicholas Hugo finally couldn't bear it anymore. He made an exaggerated gesture and said: "You seem to have forgotten the most important thing. Why are these people?"
Here?" As he spoke, he walked to the side of the slide projector and pulled out the slide of the giant white wolf.
Hugo looked at the giant white wolf and said: "I don't know what the name of this wolf is in China. But in Europe, such wolves are called Fenrir, the magic wolf Fenrir. Legend has it that their ancestor is the evil god
Loki's eldest son once devoured Odin, the king of the Nordic gods. There was a case where Fenrir bit someone and the person bitten turned into a werewolf. For God's sake, you should prepare early.
.”
"Director Hugo, you also said that this is in China, not Northern Europe. We also have legends about animals becoming monsters, and we also have methods to deal with animal monsters." Gao Liang narrowed his eyes and said to Hugo, "
Besides, there is no need to take the stories in myths and legends too seriously. This wolf does have some demonic qualities, but here, demons go against nature and will be punished by God. In your words, it will definitely be punished by God.
Punitive." Towards Nicolas Hugo, Gao Liang was obviously much more polite than to the other directors (except Wu Rendi).
Director Hugo still just shook his head. His experience in entering the polling bureau was a bit complicated. To be precise, he came to the polling bureau as an exchange student (the former director of the third office of the polling bureau took turns serving in several major dioceses in Europe). With his experience, he
In terms of theological education, it always seems a bit out of place here.
At this moment, the fax machine on Gao Liang's desk rang, and a photo was spit out from it. Gao Liang picked up the photo and only glanced at it, the expression on his face began to darken, and there was a gap between his teeth.
