"This is impossible!"

Yi Ange slapped the newspaper on the table and said angrily, "The news of the crack was published in the evening paper two days ago, why can everyone turn a blind eye?!"

He asked every ordinary person he could get his hands on.The evening paper of that day analyzed the possible reasons for the cracks in detail, and described them in detail.In Yi Ange's view, this was irrefutable evidence, but when he showed the newspaper to those people, they all showed similar expressions.

Boring, uninteresting, uncaring, as if it doesn't matter to them whether or not this happened.It doesn't affect their lives, so forgetting or not makes no difference to them.

But Yi Ange couldn't accept it.He never imagined that one day he would face such a situation, it seemed that the whole world had changed, but life was still going on, and no one cared except him and the monsters.

He gathered all the evidence he could find and spread it out on the table.Fortunately, he kept some materials on the day of the accident. He read the evening paper of the day, the morning paper of the next day, and the printed online reports word by word, trying to find some clues.

He didn't even know what he was looking at.Perhaps it was the psychological resistance that made him unable to accept the facts in front of him, so he hypnotized himself over and over again.It's definitely not that he remembered wrongly, Yi Ange gritted his teeth and thought, he went to the scene with Jing Rong, and all the memories related to this are definitely not hallucinations.

Xie Feng and the others sat aside, looking at him helplessly, "You don't have to compete with yourself, it's fine."

Yi Ange shook his head in pain.It's okay, how could it be okay?When you find that your memory deviates from the world, should you doubt yourself or the world?

Xie Feng said very optimistically, "Look, don't we still remember?"

Ke Yi Ange was afraid of this situation.The monsters all remembered that this was not convincing enough for ordinary people, and it even increased the degree of unreliability.

Yi Ange slumped on the chair, heaved a sigh of relief, and murmured, "We're not the parties involved, so even if we remember, it's useless."

This is a fact.Xie Feng stopped talking.If ordinary people don't remember, then they really have nothing to do with that crack.

Jing Rong walked in from the outside and said to them, "The records from the police station are gone."

In other words, if they were excluded, the matter would disappear completely for the entire city, including the police station.No one called the police two days ago, the officers were not on duty, and that crack has been there since the beginning.This was in line with the most likely result they had analyzed before, but when he heard it with his own ears, Yi Ange closed his eyes in despair.

how can that be possible?

Jing Rong said to Xie Feng, "Keep watching Zhou Mincai."

Xie Feng nodded and got up, took two steps, looked back at Yi Ange worriedly, glanced at Jing Rong, grinned, and left the meeting room, closing the door behind him thoughtfully.

Jing Rong pulled aside the stool next to Yi Ange and sat down, crossing his fingers on his knees, looking at him leisurely.

Yi Ange opened his eyes slightly, looked at the bright lights on the roof, and said, "I know I overreacted, so don't worry about me."

"There is a first time for everything, understandable." Jing Rong's tone was very calm, with a reassuring effect, "I think you did a good job."

Yi Ange has done everything after the accident, including collecting evidence and investigating and collecting evidence.For his subordinates, Jing Rong has never been shy about complimenting his subordinates.

Yi Ange frowned and looked at him, "Have you ever encountered such a thing before?"

Jing Rong paused, and said, "No, but I have encountered similar situations. Besides, I have already guessed that this will happen."

Yi Ange laughed softly, and said a little tiredly, "Yes, you know everything."

He scratched his head, folded the newspaper he was holding, put it back on the table, and pushed it forward as if giving up, "And I don't know anything."

He got up to leave, but Jing Rong grabbed him and said, "Sit down."

The tone of these two words did not imply an order at all, unlike Jing Rong's usual style.Yi Ange lowered her head, watched him grab her hand, watched for a long time before slowly sitting back.

"...Sorry." Yi Ange smiled wryly and shook his head, "I... am too immature."

"You have lived in the world of ordinary people for more than 20 years, and it is normal for you to be unable to accept the 'difference' between us and the outside world." Jing Rong frowned slightly, and said softly, "There is no need to blame yourself so much."

Yi Ange said, "No, I shouldn't react so strongly. I should at least be mentally prepared. This is completely..."

"Yi Ange."

Jing Rong suddenly read out his full name, which made Yi Ange pause, and swallowed half of what he had said.

Jing Rong looked at him, "Excessive reflection will only cause counterproductive effects, you don't need to do this."

Yi Ange laughed, "I'm 26, not 16, why do you talk like you're coaxing a child?"

Jing Rong raised the corners of his lips and said lightly, "Really?"

He had a nice smile, and his originally handsome face was extraordinarily gentle because of the soft expression. Yi Ange couldn't help but be attracted by him, and couldn't look away for a long time, feeling as if he was about to drown in those eyes full of deep meaning.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became ambiguous.This feeling seemed to have happened before, but Yi Ange couldn't remember clearly.Every time he looks at Jing Rong, he will lose his grasp of time and control of himself.His heart beat suddenly like a drum, and even without those sensitive ears, Yi Ange could feel a dull pain in his left chest, something clamoring to break through the flesh and explode.This is the case every time, and every time the feelings are more real and profound.

Jing Rong didn't say anything.The smile in his eyes gradually receded and turned into another complicated emotion.Jing Rong has shown this emotion many times, and Yi Ange is sure that it happened to him.

But if Jing Rong doesn't explain, he will never figure out what this emotion means in his life.

Yi Ange opened his mouth to break the atmosphere, "...you can always see through everything."

Jing Rong looked at him silently.

"You know everything," Yi Ange paused, forcing himself to continue, "So, I..."

The ringtone of the incoming call rang suddenly, and Yi Ange almost bit his tongue.He angrily went to answer the call, and there was Xie Feng's incomprehensible voice on the other side of the phone, "Jianghu emergency, come and help me, I can't keep an eye on him alone!"

Yi Ange sighed, stood up and said to Jing Rong, "I'll help."

He walked out, while casting aside his own hesitation in his heart, suddenly, Jing Rong called his name for the second time behind him.

"Yi Ange."

Yi Ange turned around and saw that Jing Rong had also stood up and walked in front of him.The two were very close, Jing Rong lowered his head, almost touching their foreheads, and said softly, "I know."

Yi Ange avoided his gaze and nodded in a panic.

Jing Rong took a step back and said to him, "Go."

As soon as the words fell, Yi Ange left the room as if fleeing.

As soon as he arrived outside Zhou Mincai's residence, Yi Ange heard someone arguing.He stopped and listened carefully, and found that it was Xie Feng and Zhou Mincai's voices.

"... Get out of my house!" Zhou Min yelled, "If you come again, I will call the police!"

"Wait, listen to me!" Xie Feng seemed to be being pushed, he struggled and shouted loudly, "I really have something to ask, wait a minute, let me go... hey!"

He missed one and was thrown out of the house by Zhou Mincai.

Zhou Min closed the door with a bang, and then there was a sound of locking the door.

Yi Ange hurried over, Xie Feng got up, patted the dirt on his body and said, "This man is really strong."

Indeed, it takes a lot of strength to be able to throw a young guy straight out of the door, which is generally impossible for people in their 50s.There was indeed something unusual about Zhou Mincai, and Yi Ange's intuition told him that things were definitely not as simple as he thought.

Although Xie Feng is very casual on weekdays, he has always been prudent in his work.He said that he showed his secrets while pretending to be a passer-by outside, was arrested and questioned, and was thrown out before he could explain.There is no way to hide this from Zhou Mincai, so it would be useless to ask a few more people to help.

Yi Ange and Xie Feng came to a corner, and while talking, kept an eye on Zhou Mincai's house.

"Jing Rong said he was the Hidden One." Yi Ange asked, "The Hidden One is also a supernatural being. According to our logic, none of the supernatural beings in the base have forgotten about the crack. Why did he forget?"

Yi Ange had been thinking about this question since the accident happened, but he didn't ask it out.Facing Jing Rong, he always felt that he couldn't get an answer to this question, so he asked Jie Feng.Ke Jiefeng is actually the same as him, confused about the facts, at most he just has a little more optimism, and now he doesn't care about 21, and analyzes in a low voice to Yi Ange, "There are many kinds of hidden people. They have been incognito for many generations, married ordinary people, and pursued ordinary offspring without genetic mutations. There are also those who left the base nearly 30 years ago and chose a different way of life from us. These people are also called 'hidden ones' '."

"The latter's time to integrate into ordinary society is too short, and their power will not disappear so quickly. I will notice it if we meet face to face, but that Zhou Mincai has no ability at all. He should belong to the former. The former situation is variable. A lot, he may just have inherited the ability gene of his ancestors, but he will not use it at all, and the ability will only be revealed inadvertently." Xie Feng said, "If the boss thinks that this person's previous testimony is correct, his The ability is clairvoyance, so he probably just triggered the ability at that moment without knowing it, and he was too stimulated, so he didn't notice what was wrong with him at all."

This could explain why Zhou Min wanted to "lie".The previous him was scared to death by the person he saw, and he couldn't be distracted to think about how he saw it, so he felt like he was talking nonsense.In fact, he really saw it, but the way he saw it was different from ordinary people.

Yi Ange pondered, "So, can you remember what happened before, which is related to the supernatural gene?"

Xie Feng shrugged, "I don't know, it's just a guess. Besides, aren't you okay? If you follow this statement, you should also..."

He suddenly stopped, looked at Yi Ange for a long time, and then said, "...Anyway, let's wait and see what happens."

He looked away, looked in the direction of Zhou Mincai's residence, and let out a deep breath.

Yi Ange frowned and thought about what he said, not noticing Xie Feng's emotional changes.The two were silent for a while, and Xie Feng suddenly asked, "What else did the boss say?"

Yi Ange was taken aback for a moment, only seeing Feng scratching his head in embarrassment, "Unless it is necessary, the boss seldom shares his thoughts with us, and usually only waits until the end to make a conclusion. But I feel that he has talked to you a lot, maybe... He likes you better."

After finishing speaking, he smiled, "I don't mean to be dissatisfied with the boss, he has such a strict personality, we all know this, and we are used to it. But you are different. I can feel it when I first saw you, Boss likes you very much."

He said it as casually as "what's for dinner tonight". Yi Ange choked on his own saliva and coughed twice. Seeing Xie Feng's serious expression, he suddenly realized that the liking he said probably meant that the boss appreciated his subordinates that feeling.

Xie Feng squinted his eyes to look at him, and after a while, he was happy.

Yi Ange forced himself to divert his attention, briefly explained how Jing Rong went to the crack, and then said, "He said that he saw the past from below."

Xie Feng frowned, and repeated in doubt, "In the past?"

Yi Ange shrugged helplessly.He didn't understand what it meant, it sounded like a metaphor, but Jing Rong was not a person who was particularly good at telling tricks, and most of the time he just said what he said and did what he said, and there were very few metaphors.Yi Ange felt that he might have overcomplicated his words, but he couldn't figure it out simply by understanding the word "past".

"In the past..." Jie Feng murmured, frowning in thought.

Yi Ange looked strange and asked him, "What did you think of..."

Before they finished speaking, a gust of wind blew past them with smoke and dust, blowing the two of them until they coughed.Strong dusty air rushed into their nostrils, Yi Ange turned his head away in pain, waiting for the gust of wind to pass.

The eyes were bewitched by the dust and hurt badly.When the wind stopped, Yi Ange rubbed his eyes to see how Xie Feng was doing, only to find that his eyes were red, staring straight at the place where Zhou Mincai lived.

"What?" Yi Ange spoke with a nasal voice, and asked as he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Xie Feng wiped his face and said softly, "Something is wrong."

He quickly walked in the direction where he was thrown out just now.Yi Ange followed closely, and as he got closer to Zhou Mincai's house, he also realized that something seemed wrong, but he couldn't say exactly what was wrong.

Xie Feng knocked on the door.After a while, an old woman in her fifties opened the door and looked at them suspiciously.

"I'm looking for Zhou Mincai," Xie Feng didn't expect someone else to open the door, so he was taken aback before saying, "I'm his...uh, friend."

The old woman sized him up in surprise, and suddenly laughed, "Friend?"

Her voice sounded very kind, and both Yi Ange and Xie Feng couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to speak, the old woman said, "You weren't born at that time, young man?"

"At that time?" Xie Feng frowned.

The old woman turned sideways and let them in. "Many people used to come to him, but that was a long time ago. It has been a long time since anyone came to him."

She pointed in the direction of the living room and said, "He's over there."

Xie Feng and Yi Ange looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy.Yi Ange walked to the living room first, thinking that if Zhou Mincai was really there, he would not get angry immediately when he saw his strange face, so that he could buy more time.

As soon as he walked into the living room, he didn't see anyone in it at a glance, so he continued to walk forward, and stopped suddenly when he glanced at a corner.Xiefeng behind him couldn't brake in time and hit him directly on the back.

"What's wrong?" Xie Feng rubbed his nose and asked, "What did you see..."

He also suddenly stopped talking, and looked at the direction Yi Ange was looking at with shock and fear.

That is a spiritual position.The photo has turned yellow, and the eyes and nose of the person on it are very similar to the Zhou Mincai they have seen, but the one in the photo is younger, like...

Just like Zhou Mincai when he was young.

The old woman didn't seem to notice the change in their expressions, and smiled behind them and said, "It's been 30 years, I didn't expect anyone to remember him."

"Year 30?"

Yi Ange felt something stuck in his throat, making him uncomfortable.

"Yes." The old woman sighed and said with emotion, "Old Zhou passed away when he was 28 years old, and this year, it will be almost 30 years."
