2052, Thirty Years Of Sleep

The sirens of police cars, ambulances and fire engines came from the entrance of the mall. The crowd nearby was noisy, and there was an annoying commotion all around.

Yan Muyun, Li Qingke, and Russell, as the main witnesses and parties involved at the time of the incident, were left at the scene. Yan Long was responsible for questioning and recording, and cooperating with some investigations.

Perhaps taking Russell's mood into consideration, the latter did not ask her too many questions.

"Thank you for your cooperation." After the recording was completed, Yan Long uploaded the file and nodded his thanks in a completely routine manner.

At this time, he had taken off his power armor, and the black suitcase was quietly placed beside him.

Yan Muyun looked at the box, a little lost in thought, and his thoughts unconsciously went astray: he didn't know what it felt like to swing the box.

"You're quite professional, Xiaotaki." Li Qingke blinked in approval and said, "You don't look like an intern at all anymore."

"I became a full-time employee a few days ago." Yan Long replied lightly, then picked up the box at his feet, stood up and left.

After the spider demon was dealt with, Russell cried for a while. At this time, her eyes were still red, but her mood was somewhat stable.

"Do you know each other?" she asked, tilting her head.

"I am the resident physician of the Special Branch." Li Qingke said with a smile.

"I just entered today...hiss..." Yan Muyun gasped in the middle of his words. His back and right shoulder had been experiencing tearing pain intermittently since just now.

After all, he has been doing high-intensity fitness today, and his muscles are already a bit fragile. Especially the action of smashing the box, the amplitude is too great, and it is inevitable that some strains will be caused.

"Exercise more, uncle." Russell rolled his eyes at him.

Yan Muyun didn't bother to explain, and turned to look at Li Qingke: "How is the little boy doing?"

"Your life is out of danger." Li Qingke's eyes became gentle and she pursed her lips with a smile: "Today's medical technology is very advanced. As long as you are still breathing, you will be fine in the ambulance."

"Okay, okay, huh..." Yan Muyun just moved his neck, and there was a soreness and numbness on his shoulders, which made him grin with pleasure.

Li Qingke looked at his appearance and said helplessly: "Come to the Special Branch tomorrow morning and spend an hour first to recover your muscles."

Yan Muyun couldn't help but shudder when he recalled the sour feeling.

"What's going on, uncle, are you also a commissioner of the Special Branch?" Russell's red eyes widened, and then he shook his head: "Probably not, how could there be such a good Special Branch commissioner?"

There was another question she didn't say out loud, and that was that the other party had only registered his superpower three days ago. How could he join the Special Branch Bureau so quickly?

The corner of Yan Muyun's mouth twitched, and he subconsciously wanted to refute, but in the end he just rolled his eyes.

I have to admit that my performance at the beginning today was indeed a bit unbearable, even embarrassing.

He had clearly seen the terrifying D-level molten demon before, but this time he was so frightened by a young E-level spider demon that he stayed in place and did not dare to move.

"He just joined the Special Branch today and just completed high-intensity training during the day." Li Qingke explained helpfully.

"You just joined today? You actually joined the Special Branch in the end..." Russell was a little surprised, then grinned and reached out to pat Yan Muyun on the shoulder: "Well, uncle, you are pretty good. "

"Hiss..." Another burst of pain hit him. The corner of Yan Muyun's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand and said, "Intern, intern, it's good if you don't cause trouble to others."

Li Qingke chuckled and patted him: "Your performance today is not causing trouble."

"Please spare me." Yan Muyun couldn't sit down anymore, so he stood up and ran away to escape from the two "devil's claws".

People were bustling outside the cordon, and many stood on tiptoes looking over. When the accident happened, they ran faster than anyone else. When the incident was over, they all came back to watch the fun.

Several reporters saw Yan Muyun standing up and extended their hands to greet him:

"Hey, sir, could you please accept an interview?"

"I'm from XX TV station, that guy..."

Looking at several cameras pointed at him not far away, Yan Muyun, who had no interest in being on TV, shrank his neck and turned around and left without looking back.

Yan Muyun found Yan Long, stood side by side with him, and then followed the latter's line of sight and looked deeper into the corridor.

The spider demon's broken body had turned into golden light spots and dissipated in the air. Yang Mingming's body, as well as the bodies of several other passers-by, were carried away by medical staff.

If it weren't for the bloodstains scattered on the floor and the ferocious deep marks on the wall like knives and axes, it would have felt like everything that happened before was an illusion.

It would be nice if it was really just an illusion.

"Has the matter been investigated clearly?" Yan Muyun asked.

"Yes." Yan Long nodded: "There is an internal supervision issue in the Smallpox Shopping Center. There is something wrong with the optical detection device in this area. The place was supposed to be closed for a day until the equipment was maintained and reopened, but the mall manager was unwilling to lose business. Well, I just hired a few people to carry out inspections with old-fashioned portable inspection equipment.”

Yan Muyun thought about it for a moment and asked, "I remember that the person in charge here seemed to be an old man. He repeated the inspection about four times in forty to fifty minutes. It takes at least twenty to three years for alien species to emerge from the dark curtain. Ten minutes, so the old man missed the test?"

"No, he was very careful every time. He checked almost every corner that should be checked." Yan Long shook his head.

"Then why..."

"He just didn't go into the women's room."

Yan Muyun grinned, not knowing what to say.

In the entire Haicang District, dark curtains appear an average of 8 times a month, and one of them happened in a large shopping mall with damaged optical equipment, and it happened to be the only place that was missed by manual inspection.

How small is this probability?

Thinking of this, Yan Muyun's heart moved slightly, and then he smiled bitterly: "Now I kind of suspect that it's my problem."

On the day I was discharged from the hospital, I met the alien molten demon on my way home. Within two or three days, I casually strolled through a shopping mall and encountered the alien spider demon again.

He is simply like a "dark screen maker", attracting monsters wherever he goes.

Yan Taki glanced sideways at him and said, "Don't think too much."

Not far away, one of the twins walked towards this side, and he didn't know whether it was Han Jinyu or Han Yinzhu.

He walked closer and said, "That optical detection device has traces of man-made damage."

Upon hearing the news, Yan Long's eyebrows instantly wrinkled, while Muyun said "Huh?", somewhat caught off guard by this sudden turn of events.

Once human factors are involved in this kind of thing, it often means that the situation will become several levels of complexity.

The only purpose of the optical detection device is to check whether there is a "dark curtain" in the nearby area.

Does the deliberate destruction of this kind of facility mean that someone can control the place where the "dark curtain" appears? Deliberately not wanting his conspiracy to be discovered, so he destroyed the monitoring device?

Yan Muyun frowned. If this was really the case, it would be a bit too shocking.

Humans and alien species have always been antagonistic, and there is absolutely no possibility of coexistence between the two sides. If someone could "summon" or even control aliens, it's hard to imagine what the consequences would be.

"Is it a business rival?" At this moment, Yan Long asked next to him.

Han Yinzhu shook his head: "I don't know. Anyway, the police have been conducting surveillance in the past few hours. I don't know if they can find any clues."

Yan Muyun rolled his eyes and couldn't help coughing a few times.

Also, if the business here is closed for a day, it will suffer a certain loss, and the opponent can also take advantage of this to make profits, so malicious competition in business cannot be ruled out.

I am too capable of scaring myself. Just based on the fact that "the optical detection device has traces of man-made damage", I think that someone can control the appearance of the dark curtain...

Yan Muyun swallowed and decided not to think too much. He could just leave these matters to his professional colleagues.
