Alien Hotel

After a while, there were two more people in Bailiqing's office.

One is Song Cheng, who is burly, and the other has gray hair and looks to be in his fifties.

The latter wore a pair of narrow-rimmed glasses, was short and slightly overweight, and looked like an ordinary office leader who had begun to retire. Baili Qing raised her head and glanced at the two people who came to her office, and nodded slightly: "They came very quickly."

"Have you gone to see that person named 'Yu Sheng'?" Song Cheng was the first to speak, "Looking at you like this... what did you find?"

"I have communicated with him a lot, and it is far from the process of my prediction. 'Yu Sheng' may be the most special 'unnatural' individual I have ever come into contact with, but before discussing in detail, I want to let you see it first The same thing."

Baili Qing said, turning her eyes to the gray-haired man - the head of the Confidential Management Office: "Luo Zheng, close the door." Luo Zheng nodded immediately, turned around and closed the office door.

As he closed the door, an invisible oppression instantly spread throughout the room, as if a breeze was blowing around. Wherever the breeze passed, even the dust floating in the air seemed to freeze for an instant.

When Song Cheng saw this formation, he couldn't help but feel nervous. He thought "it's bitter" and canceled his plan to get off work on time this afternoon. Baili Qing stood up silently after completing the "closure" of the office and came to the floor-to-ceiling window on the side.

This window is very large, and there is always a light layer of fog outside the window. However, there is an ever-changing scenery in the fog, and the scenery is obviously not the scenery that should be found in Boundary City - sometimes it is undulating mountains, and sometimes it is continuous. Endless forest, but most of the time it is a calm lake without any fluctuations. In the distance of the lake, there is a small house standing quietly, wrapped in mist, as hazy as a dream.

As Baili Qing came to the window, the flowing mist outside the window quickly became still, and the ever-changing scenery in the mist slowly faded away. Song Cheng and Luo Zheng looked at the fog with serious expressions. After a few seconds of stasis, something else began to appear in the fog.

Buildings, scattered roofs, a strange city - and the gradually spreading red glow. "What is this?" Song Cheng asked subconsciously.

"This is what 'Yu Sheng' showed me. He said it was another 'boundary city'," Baili Qing said softly, her colorless eyes calmly staring at the mist outside the window, which was stored in her memory. The scenes in the film are constantly appearing and restoring in the fog. "He is obsessed with this place and has seen this place before."

A layer of astonishment suddenly appeared in Luo Zheng's eyes. He took off his narrow-rimmed eyes and wiped them on his shirt, then stared at the floating light and shadow outside the window: "Another 'boundary city'?!" "Yes, another one, and I vaguely sensed his emotions, and he seemed to think...this is what Boundary City should be like, 'normal'."

Song Cheng and Luo Zheng both fell silent in shock. They looked at the so-called "normal" scenery outside the window with a little uneasiness.

Buildings so dark that only their edges are left are lined up on the ground, and there are towering weird spiers standing in the distance, outlining a spectacular outline. The fog is filled, and the roofs and towers are like tombstones arranged in the mist. There is a red glow passing through the fog, giving the entire sky a strange and dim texture, and the sunlight...

The blood-colored "sunshine" flows like water in the city, rolling up vortices between the buildings, and pouring down from the roofs mixed with the rays of light, constantly flowing and dripping on the eaves, dripping, dripping, pattering... .

Baili Qing's words sounded a little ethereal when they came to Song Cheng and Luo Zheng's ears: "He said that this is a quiet seaside town with beautiful sunsets. The red glow will splash in the sky like water, along the The roof is flowing..."

"...It sounds like a very poetic description." Song Cheng said softly.

"Yes, I thought so when I first heard it," Baili Qing shook her head slightly, "until I discovered that it was realistic."

"This can't be a 'place' that exists in reality," Luo Zheng said with a serious expression. He had gotten rid of the uneasiness and tension caused by witnessing "abnormalities" and quickly regained his composure, "There may be many places in the universe. It’s a planet with weird scenery, but this scene doesn’t look like a natural landscape no matter how you look at it. The light and shadow around those buildings are also...

There are "sunshine" whose existence forms violate the laws of physics, they... seem to be melting. "

"If I have to say it, it's a bit like the graphics card driver crashing when playing games, and there is a problem with the picture rendering." Song Cheng also touched his chin to analyze, and finally added, "I saw that my daughter had this problem when playing games. This situation."

"This should be some kind of foreign land," Luo Zheng said cautiously. "Judging from the scene, it should be large-scale, but lack of data and reference objects, there is no way to determine whether the classification is "wilderness" or "country", it is definitely not the case anyway." fortress'."

"It could also be an 'abnormality'." Baili Qing said calmly.

"An 'abnormal' type of foreign land? Luo Zheng was a little surprised. He frowned, "Like a 'fairy tale' or a 'heroic epic'?" But it looks like a real space..."

"'Abnormal' foreign lands will also form their own 'actual existence' in cognition." What I saw was just the scene outlined in Yu Sheng's mind, so I cannot rule out that the essence of this scene is just a 'memory' or ' "Story", Baili Qing shook her head, "The key now is that no matter what the nature of this 'foreign land' is, Yu Sheng thinks it is another 'boundary city'. "

Song Cheng and Luo Zheng fell silent at the same time, and the atmosphere in the office seemed particularly solemn.

There are countless foreign lands in this world, and those foreign lands that are connected to or even overlap with the border areas are as numerous as stars. But in any case, foreign lands are just foreign lands, and they have a specious overlap with the real world. The scale is extremely limited. Since records began, there has never been any foreign land like this——

Point to "another junction".

Song Cheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the city outside the window that was washed and soaked in red light.

To be fair, those dark city silhouettes were not very similar to the "boundary city" under his feet, at least he couldn't tell. He didn't understand why the "person" named "Yu Sheng" thought this was another city. Boundary City, but he knows one thing:

Depending on the perspective of observation, the world in your eyes will also be different.

The starry sky in the eyes of the Algrade people is full of magnificent and orderly connections and patterns. The world in the eyes of the Bamosa people is illuminated by "light" and "magnetic field" at the same time. The Jipulo people can observe the outline of the electric field, and The ancient Senjin people would embrace time in meditation and even predict the future briefly.

Humans are one of the races with the narrowest "vision" in the world. In the eyes of those gifted ethnic groups, humans are both deaf and blind, so that the infinite information in this huge world only has less than 1% of the "intelligence" It is "effective" for humans, but at the same time, as long as it is assisted by suitable equipment or methods, the human mind can process almost all "knowledge". For dangerous information that exceeds perception, humans can withstand and The adaptability is also ridiculously high.

For this reason, humans are the "innate investigator body" recognized by all races in this world. "The world in 'his' eyes is different from what we see." Song Cheng suddenly said.

"Yes," Baili Qing did not deny it, but just added, "But 'he' can also survive in our world, and except for being a little awkward, he has adapted well. "

"Having both human and..."non-human" perspectives? In other words, two "cognitive systems"?" Luo Zheng frowned slightly and said in thought, "You have been in contact with him. Do you think he is an 'entity' or a 'human being'?"

"More like human beings, at least that's what he thinks now," Baili Qing turned her head and reached out to gently knock on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window. As her words fell, the "landscape" outside the window suddenly collapsed, shrank, and then It has returned to its previous calm state of mist, mountains and water alternately appearing. "I think it's best not to destroy this."

This ‘current situation’ – before we can determine what No. 66 Wutong Road and ‘Yu Sheng’ are. "

"I understand," Song Cheng took a breath and nodded solemnly, "Then..."

"Next, the Second Brigade will allocate some manpower and energy to deal with matters related to No. 66 Wutong Road and 'Yu Sheng'. The first thing is to help him do some registration."

"Register?"

"The two 'people' around him need legal status," Baili Qing said unhurriedly, "Secondly, he himself seems to be interested in registering as a... spirit world detective.

Song Cheng: "..Huh?"

"He said that he wanted to maintain order at the border and confront foreign lands and entities." Song Cheng: "..Huh?"

"I know what you're saying," Baili Qing raised her eyelids and glanced at Song Cheng, "The Secret Service has always dealt with outrageous things. Let's arrange it - pick a smart and reliable person to take charge of this. One thing, I think the two mentioned in the last report are quite good. "

Song Cheng's expression was subtle: "I just gave them three days off...

Baili Qing thought for a while: "Yes, in this case, you need to rest - just look at the arrangements, don't delay for too long."
