After wearing the book, I was with Bai Yueguang

The setting of the secret room is no different from that of a real city. Every street has its own name. The rotating shuttle bus runs on the street and stops at the station according to a fixed route. There are even NPCs who get on and off at the station. The world is connected.

Gu Xiao was holding a cup of Yexi Tea, which is said to be a specialty of C34 City, "This secret room has a strong sense of immersion."

Xu Qing was also holding a cup of the same night's rest tea.

Both cups were bought with his salary card

Yes, because he is a physician at the First Research Institute, he is paid, and last month's salary was credited to his salary card this morning.When you go to the store to buy something, you only need to show your salary card and swipe it on the machine.

In short, quite rich for the time being.

They were walking in the bustling area in the center of the city. There was a tall building standing on the central square of the city. At this moment, there was a news broadcast on the light screen on the outer wall of the building: "The peace talks in the A1 area have failed, and the army has been sent to the E3144 area to encircle the rebellion. "

"Recently, the Moxi Research Institute in A3 District claimed to have developed the S-73 antibody, which is currently in the clinical trial stage. The spokesperson of the research institute mentioned in an interview that the dawn of mankind is within reach."

"A new type of element S-453 has been developed in the Z909 area, which can be used in anchoring technology. It is preliminarily estimated that its indicators are twice that of element S-709."

"...The new book "Nightingale" by Mingli, a writer from our district, is on the market, and is expected to be selected for this year's Dawn Award."

"... "

"..."

Xu Qing and Gu Xiao looked at each other, "Mingli?"

"Will it be him?"

Xu Qing's friend's friend, and Mingli who entered the secret room with them.

"Even if it's really him, we don't know where to find him now." Gu Xiao looked around, "I remember we just passed by a bookstore, let's go and have a look."

There is indeed a large signboard at the entrance of the bookstore, with a large line of characters written on it: "The Nightingale" by the new writer Mingli is on sale!buy one get one free!

There is also a line of small vertical characters next to the big characters: On-site voting helps "Nightingale" to participate in the Dawn Award, and enjoy random discounts on book purchases!

As soon as she entered the gate of the bookstore, Xu Qing was shocked.

The bookcases on all three sides were filled with "Nightingale", and two-thirds of the shelf in the middle of the bookstore used to display sample books was occupied by "Nightingale".

Gu Xiao picked up a book casually, the left half of the cover is red, the right half is white, and on the right half of the white center, there are red ripples like water waves, and a nightingale with black feathers is parked on it.

After handing a copy to Xu Qing, Gu Xiao asked, "Boss, how do you count your live vote?"

"Yo, buy "Nightingale"?"

The boss held up a tablet, "Come on, enter your citizenship number on the webpage, select "Nightingale" on the selection interface, and you will be able to enjoy random discounts from our store."

Gu Xiao looked at the official website of the Shuguang Award on the tablet, "You go."

Number zero has no citizen number.

Xu Qing entered the citizen number she saw in the office, and successfully jumped to the selection interface. After clicking to select "Nightingale" to vote, the boss moved out a square box with an opening just enough to put her arm in.

"Come on, draw a ball, and I'll give you a discount for the number on it."

Xu Qing randomly picked one, opened it to see the number: 2.

Boss: "...You guys are lucky."

"Okay, you can get [-]% off this book."

Gu Xiao asked curiously, "Boss, are you not afraid of losing money if you do business like this?"

The boss snorted, "If it weren't for the fact that it's the finalist stage of the Dawn Award, I wouldn't engage in such a loss-making business!"

Gu Xiao nodded and echoed him, "Indeed, it would be great if I could be shortlisted for the Dawn Award."

"Isn't it!"

The boss vomited bitterly as if he had found a confidant, "Even if you can't get the award, it's good to be shortlisted! If you are shortlisted, our district-level treatment in C34 can be upgraded by two ranks!"

"I don't want anything else. I just want the public hospitals that will be established after the district-level treatment is improved. Seeing a doctor now is too expensive."

"It's a pity, every year someone writes, every year someone publishes a book, our C34 district has only published a Mingli in 19 years, don't expect him to win an award and promote us to the B rank, I just want to be shortlisted and that's enough."

Gu smiled and said, "I think it will definitely be possible this year."

"Okay, let's borrow a good word from the boss. Would you like to vote for a discount?" The bookstore owner realized with conscience, "This boss's [-]% discount can only be used by himself."

Xu Qing blinked, "Can't I buy two copies?"

"No, no, no." The boss shook his head repeatedly, "If you buy only one copy of "Nightingale" and another novel, you can do whatever you want; if you only buy other novels, the upper limit is two. But "Nightingale", each person is limited to one , not much more."

Gu Xiao put down the "Nightingale" in his hand, "I'll just read one with you."

The boss shook his head regretfully, as if regretting that she didn't choose to take a copy of "Nightingale" home.

"Is there anything else you two want to buy?"

Xu Qing put the books she bought into the bag and said, "There are no more."

"Then you two go away."

The central square can be seen from the entrance of the bookstore. The originally spacious and uncrowded square was suddenly crowded with people. Xu Qing noticed that there seemed to be a person climbing on the light screen on the outer wall of the building.

Gu Xiao followed his gaze and looked over, "There are people over there."

The news broadcast was interrupted, and the person on the edge of the light screen took out a loudspeaker and put it near his mouth. His roar instantly resounded throughout the square and several surrounding streets.

"I shaped the devil in the dark, and since then the devil has the same appearance as me. You—every one of you, everyone who supports the use of shit elements! You are the accomplice of the devil! Human beings will eventually perish in their arrogance !"

"--but me!"

"And I want to be a nightingale, singing from the thorny wilderness all night to the rugged world in the morning."

"I'm going to sing a song—"

He seemed to lift something up, "Come on! Let me sing the nightingale's death song to this town with a variation of your favorite shit element!"

The owner of the bookstore was also startled by the sound outside, and came out of the store, and stood outside the door with Xu Qing and Gu Xiao to check the situation. Seeing this scene, his face turned pale, and he couldn't help murmuring, "It's over...it's over... "

Xu Qing was puzzled, "What is that?"

The bookstore owner smiled miserably, as if desperate, "What is that?"

"That is the strongest weapon made by the S-73 variant S-6... As long as he pulls out the plug, everyone in the entire C34 area will die."

"I'm going to die..."

The owner of the bookstore was devastated and couldn't bear the slightest bit of resistance.

Under absolute power, all living beings are like ants.

Gu Xiao was silent for two seconds, "Don't call the police?"

"Call the police?"

The bookstore owner asked back, thinking for a while, "Call the police! Yes! Someone must have called the Metropolitan Police Department!"

"Oh my god! The silver star calendar is here, I beg the people from the Metropolitan Police Department to come over quickly!"

"They must have a way...they must have a way..."

Xu Qing and Gu Xiao bit their ears.

Gu Xiao: "What do you think?"

Xu Qing: "It feels like the main line, but there is no room for participation in this situation... No, the Metropolitan Police Department."

"Well, Metropolitan Police Department."

Gu Xiao also thinks so, "I want us to go to the Metropolitan Police Department, I guess there is at least one player in the Metropolitan Police Department, should we go?"

Smoke gray is cold, and the heart seems to be cold too.Xu Qing asked her, "What about you? Do you want to go?"

Dr. Xu brought the test subject No. 100 out privately, so it shouldn't be too eye-catching.If you go to the Metropolitan Police Department, it is almost [-]% sure that the No. [-] test subject was found.

This is the so-called main line, but the game also gives you the opportunity to choose whether to participate in the main line or not.If you don't want to participate, just leave here now.

When Gu Xiao came back to her senses, her fingers had unconsciously stopped in front of Xu Qing's eyelashes, and with a distance of a few millimeters, the eyelash feathers brushed one after another disturbingly.

She said, "Go ahead."

Want to go but timid, it doesn't matter, I will go with you.

Gu Xiao changed the subject, "Did you just hear it clearly? 'I shaped the devil in the dark, and from then on the devil has the same appearance as me'," and I will be a nightingale, from the thorny wilderness all night, to the morning on the jagged world '."

Xu Qing took the words. He had just read the title page and catalog of "Nightingale" and remembered it clearly. "...is part of the preface to The Nightingale."

"Tell me, what kind of role does Mingli play? What kind of position does he have?"

Gu Xiao discussed with him, "The preface of "Nightingale" is like a dialogue between two completely opposite personalities."

Xu Qing thought for a while, "Let everyone who sees "Nightingale" think they saw themselves. Perhaps, this is his purpose?"

Gu Xiao was thoughtful, "Dawn Award..."

While the two were talking, the square had already been cordoned off, and the crowded crowd was evacuated urgently. The person holding the so-called strongest weapon above the light screen was stunned by the shooting of a sharpshooter, and was caught by the floor mat. Police in dark blue uniforms took him away handcuffed.

No police came for either of them.

strangeness……

Did Qingqing and I make a mistake in our deduction?

We were not taken to the Metropolitan Police Department, so what method was used?The witness who reported the clues to the malicious attack just now?

Before the police arrived, Xu Qing asked her, "Shall we go?"

"--I'm afraid not."

The death threat disappeared, and the bookstore owner regained his vitality. He interrupted abruptly and pressed the side button on the watch-like dial on his wrist, "You guys have to stay."

As he pressed the side button, a policeman in a dark blue uniform and a black medal came from the square, "What's the matter?"

"Officer! I want to report!"

The bookstore owner pointed at Xu Qing and Gu Xiao with his index finger, "I want to report that some of them don't have a citizen number. They may be illegal immigrants, or they may be the perpetrators of the attack!"

Hearing the last words of the bookstore owner, the police officer's expression became serious in an instant, "You two, please follow me to the Metropolitan Police Department."

"Resisting arrest is considered a crime."

Seeing the police officer leading the two people to leave smoothly, the bookstore owner rubbed his hands, "Officer, that..."

"Report rewards will be transferred to your citizen account. One-third will be issued in the early stage. If the report is true, the remaining two-thirds will be settled."
