Chapter 224 Terrorist attacks are like gas explosions
The newspaper office at night was deserted.
It was late at night and some overtime workers had already left.
Except Fang Donghao.
Over the past few days, he has investigated various current rumors and clues, but still found nothing.
Judging from the laws of boundary time and space, they cannot be far away from the pressure monsters and magical girls. Some of the rumors investigated at hand can also show that there is indeed some kind of undercurrent in this city.
So why can't they meet it?
Perhaps it was deliberately concealed.
And it is quite a superb concealment method.
Fang Donghao's desk was full of paper files. He was flipping through them and taking notes on his terminal.
What kind of concealment method would it be?
He tried to imagine passages from some classic works.
Concealment by high-level society, official hands?
Or do all abnormalities occur in a different space, the dark side of the world?
Or is it more straightforward amnestics?
Or is it the fading and clearing of existence after the fact?
Or even... reincarnation?
Or is the world program changing?
Fang Donghao listed various possibilities and shook his head.
It’s not enough to just guess like this.
If it is really some of the methods among these conjectures, then his conjectures may always remain at the conjecture stage and difficult to make any progress.
He turned on the computer next to him, thought for a moment and then started searching.
Since everything that happens around us will be manipulated and hidden by some invisible hand, what about some events in the past that have already happened but still left indelible traces?
Did that big hand make mistakes in the past due to negligence?
Now it seems that we can only pursue this possibility.
He began to investigate some old cases and rumors on the computer, looking for news records from many years ago, and at the same time moved the files of old newspapers and periodicals in the newspaper office.
While he was checking, his cell phone received a call.
It was Chen Sixue calling.
He picked up: "What's wrong? Are you calling me at such a late hour without taking a break?"
"Are you still in the newspaper office?" Chen Sixue asked.
"yes."
"Have you had dinner?"
"Eat whatever you want. I told you I won't go back tonight, so you don't have to wait for me." Fang Donghao said with a smile.
"You have adapted very well to your status as a social beast." Chen Sixue couldn't help but complain after hearing these remarks.
"You calling me at this time shows that you have adapted well to your current status." Fang Donghao joked in turn.
That's right, Chen Sixue and Fang Donghao in this boundary, in addition to their obvious work identities, have another identity as a newlywed couple.
But everyone actually doesn't feel much about this. After all, most people are not very interested in the identity given by boundaries.
And if you can live under the same roof, it will actually be beneficial to actions within the boundaries.
So there is no element of overthinking.
Identities within boundaries are just tools.
"This boundary is so peaceful. It's like I've really returned to my old life. It makes me want to stay here for a little longer." Chen Sixue said softly.
"Yes, daily life is rare, but it's a pity that it's all fake. And there may be unexpected dangers here at any time, so we still can't relax." Fang Donghao said.
"He Qin has been staying in hotels lately. I just finished talking to her on the phone."
"She also worked hard and had bad luck." Fang Donghao sighed.
Shangguan He Qin's status in this boundary comes with a husband, who is also married.
It’s not strange to have various identities arranged in boundary time and space, so there’s nothing to say about it, and some people are even very happy with it. But some people find it hard to accept.
Shangguan He Qin is obviously the unacceptable type. Recently, she and her husband of this status found a reason to move out to a hotel.
"She doesn't seem to be in a very good mood lately, and I want to hang out with her to relax."
"Okay, this city has all kinds of facilities, and there are even coastal beaches. It would be good for you to take some time to relax." Fang Donghao responded directly.
Chen Sixue said: "But lately you have been busy alone, so it would be awkward for you to go there with just the two of us."
"It's okay. The captains of the other two teams are also helping me. They are all old acquaintances and reliable."
"so……"
"You guys go ahead and play. If the worst happens, I'll give you more orders to earn back when I go on a mission."
"Okay, you have to take care of yourself."
After the two finished chatting, they hung up the phone.
Fang Donghao looked at his phone and smiled. The lock screen of his phone was a photo of the two of them.
Although he and Chen Sixue did not have this memory, he still liked this photo.
Putting down his phone, he continued his previous investigation.
Along with the investigation, Fang Donghao's brows gradually tightened.
He quickly closed the current page, and then entered the word "terrorist attack" in the search bar, limiting the scope to Fusheng City.
Sure enough, he gained something.
He dug out a lot of old news, and anyone who read it couldn't help but complain: Why are there so many terrorists in this city?
"This is the same as the gas explosion in Fuyuki City, right?" Fang Donghao couldn't help but said.
He quickly explored in depth, but most of these incidents were settled in the end, and no obvious problems could be found. The uniform pattern was that terrorists launched attacks and were eventually killed or escaped.
For people in this world, these are real things that have happened. At most, they lament that public security is not good.
But for an outsider like Fang Donghao, it is very abnormal for this city to have frequent terrorist attacks for a long time despite the fact that this city does not have enough soil to breed terrorists.
The reckless actions of the three members of Team E were not fruitless.
At least their actions inspired Fang Donghao to investigate this aspect, and he made very significant gains.
He planned to visit the old sites of some cases and visit the victims, maybe he could gain further insights.
He quickly screened out some cases worth investigating.
"Let's start with this one." He finally picked one of them and said.
He doesn't know much about magical girls, but he still has some vague memories of surfing the Internet.
In short, there should be no problem if magical girls try to look for young people.
Fang Donghao looked at the news in the old newspaper he called up.
"Terrorist attack on Fusheng City No. 2 Primary School, resulting in a large number of student casualties..."
It was already five years ago.
But Fang Donghao could sense something strange.
In this case, there was only one terrorist, but the scope of his influence was abnormally large.
The official answer to this is that the terrorists are organized and well-planned.
The death or injury of a child was obviously an extremely serious incident, but the follow-up reports were not followed up, and people seemed to have subconsciously forgotten about it.
"That's it." Fang Donghao said.
…
Just when Fang Donghao's investigation had some clues, time came one morning.
Wan Yi arrived at school.
There was no class today, but regarding the "terrorist attacks" a few days ago, the school had to hold a meeting and the faculty and staff were all present, so he came to the school even though it was time for a break.
There is nothing more stressful than being able to take a break, but for various reasons have to return to work during the break.
Just when he was a little bored, he turned around and suddenly saw a figure who had been very peaceful recently.
It’s Teacher Dong Kaimen.
He was walking towards the small garden where the two had been chatting, and Wan Yi saw his back.
There was still nothing unusual in Dong Kaimen these days, and the clone responsible for keeping track was a little tired of it.
The shut-up monster didn't appear again, and it seemed like it was really over.
But everyone has been resurrected once, and if they suddenly stop being resurrected, no matter how they look at it, there is something wrong with them.
Wan Yi was about to say hello, but was stopped by another acquaintance.
"Good morning, teacher." Chen Yiai crossed his arms and wore a black and white peaked cap on his head. He was dressed a bit fashionably and with his temperament, he looked like a prickly student.
In fact she is.
"Good morning, are you jogging in the morning too today?" Wan Yi asked casually.
"Because you seem to be resting these days, I planned to go directly to your home to find you. Fortunately, there is a meeting at school today and I called you over, saving me time." Chen Yiai said.
"You know so much about my itinerary?" Wan Yi raised his eyebrows lightly.
"I just wanted to find out something by the way because I have something to do with you. You won't get it wrong and think I'm a pervert who is interested in you, right?" Chen Yi'ai looked at Wan Yi with disgust.
"It's not the best, that really makes me relieved." Wan Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Yiai was speechless for a moment. This person is really a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water.
"So what do you want from me?" Wan Yi asked.
"I just want to make an appointment with you first, otherwise it would be impolite to ask someone directly to make the request, and it will prevent you from finding someone after the meeting." Chen Yiai said. "
"Although I have to say that your tone and posture are already very rude from the perspective of students and teachers." Wan Yida.
"Anyway, we have something to ask you. If you have any questions, you can ask us. It's not bad to just chat together." Chen Yiai said.
"That's it. I agree." Wan Yi nodded in agreement.
