Chapter 182 The reason for the disappearance of the restricted area

City of Lausanne.

In a street cafe.

Shen Xiu, who asked Alia to go to the small town of Centralia, sat alone by the window, staring at the scene of people coming and going on the street, waiting for someone to come.

Just now, he finally understood why he felt that the whole of Lausanne was very different from before when he came back this time.

What has changed is not the building, nor his heart, but the people of Lausanne. All the residents living in Lausanne are completely different from the time when everyone was in danger.

In Lausanne today, there are no restricted areas, no blockades, and no more "lunatics" trying to bring the old gods down.

Everyone lives in peace and contentment, full of vigor, and even makes the whole of Lausanne look brand new.

"It seems that I really did a good thing by leaving here." Shen Xiu muttered to herself.

He reached out to pick up the smoking coffee on the table in front of him, and was about to take a sip when he heard a familiar voice behind him:

"What good thing did your kid do again?"

Shen Xiu couldn't help but pause while drinking coffee, turned her head to look, and stood up with a smile on her face:
"Boss Zheng, you are here."

Zheng Qinghe walked to the other side of the table and sat down with the same smile on his face. He refused the menu handed over by the waiter and casually ordered a glass of boiled water and said:

"Tell me, what good things did you do in Jingdu?"

Shen Xiu smiled awkwardly.

For Zheng Qinghe to ask this question, he must have learned about what happened in Jingdu from someone.

Shen Xiu didn't hide anything, she picked up something that could be said and said it out.

After a while, Zheng Qinghe listened, took a sip of the boiled water brought by the waiter, and said:

"Are you sure about this matter? Of the three restricted areas we have here, Dense Fog Town has not disappeared. There must be something wrong here. If you are not sure, think again. I think Long Zheng and Zhu The identity of the dart should not be too embarrassing for you."

Shen Xiu faintly smiled and shook her head.

Will Long Zheng and Zhu Biao make things difficult for him?

One's nephew had a feud with him, and the other was the mastermind who proposed the "deal". If these two would not embarrass him, the deputy director of the Lausanne Bureau of Foreign Affairs really thought highly of them.

Thinking of this, Shen Xiu had no choice but to thank Sophie who broke the news to him when she first arrived in Jingdu, or Zhou Cheng who told him these things through Sophie's mouth.

If it weren't for them, he would still be kept in the dark about which guy proposed the "fair deal".

"Zhu Biao, what a 'pillar', I hope one day you won't fall into my hands."

Shen Xiu silently wrote down the name of Deputy Director Zhu in her small notebook, and waited for the day when the account would be settled.

Shen Xiu took a sip of coffee and said:

"This matter is no longer a question of whether I am sure. You also know about the 'ceremonial array'. The 'wall' is now loose. If you don't repair it quickly, the consequences will be disastrous. Even if there is a 'deal', I can't stand by and watch, after all, they are willing to give me some compensation, and I still make money."

Zheng Qinghe was silent for a moment, sighed, and said nothing more.

Shen Xiu didn't know what Zheng Qinghe would think when she heard her words of "Wei Guangzheng". Anyway, everyone carried the bridal sedan chairs, maybe after these words spread to Jingdu, they could win the favor of some people .

"Why am I becoming more and more hypocritical?" Shen Xiu laughed at herself.

Looking at the guilty Zheng Qinghe, Shen Xiu smiled and said:

"Forget it, let's not talk about my business, Director Zheng, I just heard that two places in the restricted area in Lausanne have disappeared. What's going on?"

The reason why he didn't go to the town of Centralia with Alia was to find out why the restricted area disappeared.

This matter is more important to him than that "wall" that is about to collapse.

After all, even if the "wall" really collapsed, as long as there are those restricted areas and those "reliances" in the restricted area, he can still live well.

Speaking of the restricted area, Zheng Qinghe frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and then told what happened two months ago.

It was an early morning two months ago.

At the moment when night and day just ended, the investigators and security guards who had already prepared continued to seal off the ominous lake named "Ivory Lake" and the ominous house on Binhe Road as usual.

Unexpectedly, when two groups of people came to the vicinity of the two restricted areas, they found that the place that had been guarded for a long time had changed into another look.

Where there is a lake, where there are single-family villas, there is just an open space.

Not to mention the security guards, even the investigators of the Bureau of Strange Affairs had never seen such a situation, fearing that it was another conspiracy by the old sect, they hurriedly sent an alarm to the bureau.

As the deputy director of the Lausanne Bureau of Foreign Affairs, Zheng Qinghe was actually the top leader when the position of director was vacant.

He immediately rushed to Ivory Lake with all the active forces in the bureau.

After some confirmation, it was ruled out that it was the handiwork of the old sect, but the ivory lake that was rated as a seventh-level restricted area had indeed disappeared.

After that, the group rushed to Binhe Road. Like Ivory Lake, the haunted house disappeared without leaving any clues.

Two restricted areas in a row appeared and disappeared out of thin air. To be honest, Zheng Qinghe was not very happy even if the conspiracy of the old sect was ruled out.

Because this means that things are completely out of control, and it means that there may be three, four, or even thirty or forty restricted areas appearing in the urban area of ​​Lausanne at the same time in the next second.

At that time, even if the two worlds of day and night were not merged into one, the situation was almost the same.

Just when Zheng Qinghe was full of worries, the investigators stationed in front of Nongwu Town sent news that Nongwu Town was still the same as before, without any changes.

The news will come, it is an order from Zheng Qinghe, and it is necessary to report the situation of the restricted area once a day, which is a daily work.

This was originally an ordinary news that could no longer be ordinary, but to Zheng Qinghe's ears, it had a different feeling.

As a restricted area that appeared at the same time as Ivory Lake, why didn't Dense Fog Town disappear along with it? Could it be that this hides the secret of the restricted area's disappearance?
For this reason, Zheng Qinghe rushed to Dense Wu Town with a group of people.

Since Shen Xiu had previously reported that there were three parallel spaces in this town shrouded in thick fog, Zheng Qinghe didn't dare to ask anyone to go in and investigate, but just stationed here for several days.

About a week later, Dense Fog Town was still the same Dense Fog Town, it had not disappeared, and no other changes had occurred.

At this time, Zheng Qinghe only let go of half of the high hanging stone in his heart.

In the next half month, Zheng Qinghe issued another order to change the daily report to three times.

A month later, there was still no change in Dense Fog Town.

Since then, Zheng Qinghe was completely relieved, and released the news that the restricted area was "eradicated".

The residents of the entire Lausanne city heard the news and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. People took to the streets one after another and cheered.

Although there is still a murderous town near Lausanne that has not been "eradicated", it is still dozens of kilometers away from the urban area. As long as you don't take the initiative to go there to seek death, it is actually the same as if there is no place.

"In other words, those two restricted areas disappeared overnight?"

After hearing all this, Shen Xiu's brows were already twisted into the word "Chuan".

Zheng Qinghe's description is basically the same as what the taxi driver told him before, only with some more details.

This is of no help in finding the reason for the disappearance of the restricted area.

Zheng Qinghe on the other side of the table nodded solemnly.

The restricted area has disappeared for more than two months, and everyone in Lausanne believes that their Bureau of Foreign Affairs did this.

But as the deputy director of the Foreign Affairs Bureau, he knew in his heart that this matter was still a mystery until now.

It seems that there will be no problems with everything, but this is like a calm volcano, who knows when it will erupt.

Shen Xiu rubbed her chin, stroked Zheng Qinghe's words again, suddenly thought of something, and asked:
"Director Zheng, did anything unusual happen the day before the two restricted areas disappeared?"

"abnormal situation?"

Zheng Qinghe thought for a while and said:
"Hearing what you said, I suddenly remembered that someone said before that the day before Ivory Lake disappeared, the pressure on him from that lake suddenly became much less, as if that lake was not a restricted area. , just like ordinary lake water.”

Hearing this, a strange look flashed in Shen Xiu's eyes. She didn't ask any more questions and chatted with Zheng Qinghe for a while. Zheng Qinghe had to rush back to the foreign affairs bureau because of a phone call.

After Zheng Qinghe left, Shen Xiu showed a relieved expression, and muttered to herself:

"It was so"

That's right, after Zheng Qinghe's "reminder" just now, he thought of the reason why the two restricted areas disappeared.

The incident happened two months ago, and the day before the restricted area disappeared, some people felt that the Ivory Lake had become like an ordinary lake, and that it no longer possessed the power to kill everything.

This means that the ivory at the bottom of the lake probably disappeared the day before the entire ivory lake disappeared.

And during that time, all the phantoms in Shen Xiu's mind disappeared because of the afterimages left in her mind by the God of Foresight.

That's right.

The phantoms in the brain will be wiped out, and the corresponding things in the real world will also disappear.

Without the ivory lake and Jiajia's haunted house, there is no need for it to exist.

The reason why the town of Centralia can still exist is because there are not only executioners in the town, but also some other monsters, and even the other monsters have disappeared, and the town will not disappear, because in that land Below, there is another "angel".

As for Alia's ability to stay in this world well, the main reason is that the phantom in Shen Xiu's mind corresponding to the horror movie she represents is another blood descendant.

That is to say, the scenes where horror movies descend on the real world are actually not time-sensitive. The reason why the restricted area disappears is all because the only "horror" in the restricted area disappears.

It is very simple to prevent this from happening again, as long as the phantom in the mind does not disappear.

After thinking through all this, Shen Xiu smiled again, picked up the cold coffee on the table, drank it in one gulp, stood up and left the cafe.

Half an hour later, Shen Xiu appeared in front of the eighth-level restricted area actually named "Centria".

Perhaps because of the disappearance of the other two restricted areas, Zheng Qinghe's manpower was much looser, and there were many more people stationed here than before.

Among them were two old acquaintances of Shen Xiu - Wang Quan's uncle, Zhong Qiwei, and the equipment administrator in charge of distributing equipment, Fei Yuze.

But Shen Xiu didn't come forward to say hello.

After all, until now, he had still found Wang Quan's body, so he didn't have the face to meet Zhong Qiwei.

Finding a gap in the blockade, Shen Xiu quickly got in and disappeared into the thick fog.

What Shen Xiu didn't know was that when he had just crossed the blockade, two people appeared in that "gap".

"Why didn't you stop him?"

Fei Yuze looked at the stern-faced middle-aged man beside him with a smile on his face.

Zhong Qiwei, who was looking in the direction where Shen Xiu disappeared, retracted his gaze, and said lightly:
"Didn't you stop it too?"

Fei Yuze rolled his eyes:

"My niece didn't suffer because of him."

Before the word "death" came out of his mouth, Fei Yuze felt a coldness coming from the person beside him, so he quickly covered his mouth.

Seeing that Zhong Qiwei didn't make any further moves, he let go of his hand and said angrily:

"I've only met him once, why should I stop him, and with my strength, I can't stop him."

This time, Zhong Qiwei didn't say anything more, was silent for a moment, then turned and left suddenly.

Fei Yuze was confused and didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he had to follow.

the other side.

After Shen Xiu entered the small town of Centralia alone, she was not as cautious as she was the first time. She strolled along the main street of the small town, looking east and west. Performance.

If this scene is seen by others, they must think that this guy is a desperate lunatic.

Naturally, a certain "lunatic" would not have this kind of cognition, and walked towards Alia's house at a slow pace.

Along the way, Shen Xiu met several "walking" trappers. A female nurse with a deformed face ran out of the hospital for some reason, and finally arrived at the destination 10 minutes later.

Aliya, who was looking forward to the house, saw "father" coming, and immediately opened the door with a smile on her face to welcome him in.

After one person and one descendant cooked a delicious dinner at home, Shen Xiu took Aliya out and went straight to the factory in the small town.

When she came to the factory, Shen Xiu wandered around inside deliberately, but found no trace of the executioner, and was even more sure of her previous speculation—once the phantom in her mind was destroyed, the corresponding things in the real world would also disappear.

Shen Xiu, who couldn't say she had any regrets, didn't continue to wander, and came to the weird iron gate below the factory with Aliya again.

This time, Shen Xiu still didn't go in, and even Aliya who was about to enter the door was held back by him. Regardless of Aliya's suspicious eyes, Shen Xiu shouted:
"Hey, are you asleep?"

There was no sound coming from inside the door, as if the "person" inside had fallen asleep.

Shen Xiu curled her lips and shouted again:

"Don't pretend, I'm here to tell you something serious."

This time, Lilith's seductive voice came out:

"I'd like to hear what business you can do with such a disreputable fellow?"

"Without credibility?"

Shen Xiu was confused by these four words, and it took a long time to realize that Lilith was complaining that he didn't come back in time to replenish the mark, so she couldn't help rolling her eyes and said:
"Leave the mark in advance, I really have something to ask you."

Seeing that Shen Xiu's tone became serious, Lilith stopped joking and said:

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Shen Xiu pondered for a while, and spoke out about the problems she encountered.
