Odd Containment Specialist

Xia Shou walked out of the dormitory with a very bad feeling in his heart. The first thing he discovered was that the management and control bureau was almost empty of employees, especially female employees. It took a long time to walk to see one. There were paper shredders everywhere in the office. The sound of operations, bundles of documents being transported out, gathered in the hall, smashed, and then transported away again.

The news comprehensive TV in the hall is showing news from all official channels. Many of them are reporting that the roads out of the city are filled with polluted dust, which is said to have a serious impact on children and women leaving the city. I hope women and children will Stay at home and don't go out in the near future.

Xia Shou could tell at a glance that this news was meant to fool ordinary people. The real reason was that the Eyes of Tree Roots had set up a barrier. In this city, ordinary women and children could not leave the city. They would be affected by supernatural beings. Affected by the power, during the process of leaving the city, he encountered ghosts beating the wall and various physical discomforts.

Xia Shou took out his mobile phone and logged into a random forum website, where people were discussing the strange phenomena they had encountered recently.

Under normal circumstances, mortals will actively ignore all kinds of abnormal phenomena. Even if the entire Public Security Bureau is twisted into a Rubik's Cube in front of them, they will turn a blind eye. However, when the same weird phenomenon is spread over a large area, they become aware of the abnormal phenomena. .

"We are already preparing for the worst." Edson came to Xia Shou and handed him a cigarette, "Would you like to smoke?"

"If you don't smoke, smoking is prohibited in public places in the bureau, right?"

"It doesn't matter. All the women are gone. Men can always tolerate men." Edson lit a cigarette as if no one was watching.

Xia Shou was silent for a long time and asked: "Does abnormal situations like this covering the whole city happen often?"

"What do you think the total number of people in the world is?"

"I remember it was 7 billion."

"Have you counted?"

"No way I could have counted them, but that's what the statistics say."

"The real answer is about 2 billion. Things like this, where half the people in the city suddenly die, actually happen quite often."

Xia Shou was shocked.

If this happens often, wouldn't ordinary people notice it?

"The United States once dropped two devastating weapons on a country, but the number of casualties actually caused by those weapons was 0."

"Minister Edson, are you kidding me?" Xia Shou's eyes widened.

Edson's expression was very calm: "There will be no psychological pressure from dropping two bombs in a city with no living people. Mushroom clouds are just tombstones for the dead. Everything afterward will be covered up. Everything you see can prove it." The witnesses of this history are all manipulated by the Control Bureau, and human collective cognition is more easily deceived than imagined.”

Xia Shou remained silent for a long time.

Edson took a deep breath of cigarette and continued: "But it is better to live in a scam, knowing that because of the madness of the enemy country, a bomb capable of destroying the entire city may be dropped. This fear is far gentler than the truth. .

If they were told that they might fall into a situation more horrifying than death at any time due to some inexplicable, bold application of a small-concept forbidden object, or due to an unexplained disaster, everyone would go crazy. "

"What a terrible world." Xia Shou said these words unconsciously.

"Well, it's too bad. We still failed this time. Our opponent was just a little-known small religious sect." Edson sighed deeply, "Sorry, telling you these useless things, it's just some It’s just a sigh of relief, you have your own things to do, right?”

"Mr. Xia, have you seen the minister?" Reed suddenly walked towards him.

Xia Shou was stunned when he heard this, and pointed to Edson beside him, but suddenly found that there was no one around him at all.

"He was here talking to me just now, but he disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"Really, the director is looking for him. At this critical moment, he turned off his cell phone. What on earth was he doing!" Reed complained while cursing and looking elsewhere.

Xia Shou looked blankly at the empty space around him and asked the employee closest to him who was shredding data: "You just saw Minister Edson standing here talking to me, right?"

"I didn't pay attention." The other party shook his head and continued to concentrate on shredding paper.

At this moment, Su Weiyu came over carrying a large bag of things. Xia Shou quickly stepped forward and asked, "Weiyu, did you put that piece of paper on Edson's desk?"

"Oh, I didn't put it away. I wanted to put it away, but I saw him picking up the paper to test the handwriting, so I took it back. They have a forbidden object here that can depict the physical characteristics of the person who wrote it through the handwriting." Su Wei Yu put the backpack behind her on the ground and opened the zipper. Inside were various special bows and crossbows, which did not contain metal.

Su Weiyu thought for a while: "Your idea, if you use a printer to print it instead, you won't be found by banned objects."

Xia Shou thought for a moment and shook his head: "I don't plan to use this method anymore."

The note he asked Su Weiyu to deliver before, what was written on it, was the method to enter the Blood Mother Cult. The specific method was: ask Edson to send a reliable combatant, lie in the suitcase, and then quietly Rollins Church awaits.

As for Xia Shou, Su Weiyu can drag her and the operator into Rollins Church without being discovered.

But just now, Xia Shou changed his mind, because he suddenly realized that this approach might expose his self-destruction.

Xia Shou's previous observations have already drawn a reliable conclusion: Seeking one's own death may affect the entire world, but it cannot affect the Sea of ​​Origin itself.

In other words, as long as he uses Seeking one's own death, people with abyssal syndrome will notice some subtle strange changes, such as the depth in front of their own body suddenly increased by several meters, or abnormal changes in certain scenes in the dream sea, etc.

There must be a large number of deep divers among the employees of the Control Bureau, and even the top management may have noticed this strange phenomenon and have already begun to study it secretly.

If Su Weiyu just left a note for Edson, then the top management can easily draw a series of leaping inferences: this kind of forward-looking information has a predictive nature, and this information is beneficial to the breakthrough of the Blood Mother Cult, and the beneficiaries may be people in the Control Bureau who are hostile to the Blood Mother Cult.

It may be okay to leave a message once, but if it happens many times, the scope of suspects will continue to narrow, and in the end, the Control Bureau will definitely find him.

Xia Shou knows very well that although the Control Bureau is the order maintenance party between the extraordinary world and the ordinary world, it is by no means a good person.

This can be seen from what Edson just said to him.

The power of resetting time with the self-destruction is too strong. If the top management of the control bureau knows about it, he will definitely be controlled. As a trial and error machine for large-scale ultra-dangerous tasks, it is constantly activated every 24 hours.

At this time, he is actually no different from being sliced.

It seems that I have to use the self-destruction more carefully in the future, Xia Shou thought secretly.

Su Weiyu saw that he was a little distracted, and gently called out: "Xia Shou?"

Xia Shou came back to his senses, was silent for a while, and said: "Let's set off now."

"Now? Without waiting for the self-destruction to cool down?!" Su Weiyu looked at him in shock.
