Alien paradise

Bang bang.

There was a knock on the door outside the office.

"Please come in." Gao Wei hung up his uniform and said with some confusion. He just entered the house today, who would come to him so early?

The door was pushed open, and Zhang Zhiyuan walked in panting. He was obviously not in good condition, his lips were a little dry, and there were thick dark circles around his eyes.

"Where did you go yesterday? If I remember correctly, you and Officer Cui returned the day before yesterday, but she came to work and you disappeared. Could it be that you didn't sleep all day?" Gao Wei opened his thermos cup and gave The subordinate poured a cup of wolfberry tea and said, "Here, drink some water first."

"Actually, I haven't slept for almost two days." Zhang Zhiyuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, grinning from the heat, "I went to Jindu yesterday."

"You are getting more and more courageous now if you don't report your trip." Gao Wei said in a displeased tone, "What is going on in Chucheng? I heard that you caught someone, but he has nothing to do with this matter. big?"

"Sorry, sorry, this time is really a special situation." Zhang Zhiyuan quickly put down the cup, took out a courier bag from his pocket, and carefully placed it on the table, "Reporting for business trip requires approval, and I was really afraid that I would not be able to make it in time, so I went out first. I will make a detailed report on the Chucheng incident, but it really has nothing to do with the paradise, and it can even be said to be a wasted trip."

"Then why did you go to Jindu?"

"In order to get this express in person." Zhang Zhiyuan confessed honestly, "If I wait for it to be mailed, I'm afraid it will take two to three days. If I fly, I can go back and forth in one day. And this thing... is the evidence."

"What evidence?" Gao Wei asked confused.

"Proof of Paradise."

Gao Ju's expression suddenly became serious. He opened the plastic bag and poured out the contents.

That's a small stone.

But when he held it in his hands, he could feel that its touch was obviously different from ordinary silicate minerals.

"You mean...this is something from another world?"

"Yes." Zhang Zhiyuan actually didn't know what it was, but the park would never do anything meaningless. "There are several professional testing agencies in Beifu. They can issue reports whether it is a stone or some kind of compound. If it has ingredients that have never been seen before, I think that's the strongest proof."

"How did you get it?" Gao Wei asked.

"The rewards of the park games."

"Don't they know what this thing represents?"

"Know, or they know everything...but Paradise doesn't care."

Gao Wei looked at the other person strangely, didn't he care? This kind of statement that enhances others' prestige should not be heard from one's capable subordinates. "You mean, they are planning to show up in broad daylight?"

"No, what I mean is that the technological power of Paradise has reached a new level. At this level, we cannot catch them through conventional means." Zhang Zhiyuan briefly described his situation in Chucheng to his boss, " Since it dares to do this, it is not afraid of the chain impact this will bring."

"Even the files in the big data center have been replaced? Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Gao Wei's eyes widened.

"Because any network-based barrier won't work unless the device is powered off. You know... they're not going to do that either."

"Let's go." Gao Wei stood up and put on his uniform again.

"...Where to go?" Zhang Zhiyuan was stunned.

"Of course we go to the National Identification Center." He said solemnly, "I'll go with you."

…

The National Security Center is not far from the Interpol Building, only a ten-minute drive away.

As an official cooperative unit, the two of them did not need to wait in line and were directly guided into the special reception hall. A young man in a white coat greeted them, "Hello, my name is Bai Yan. How can I help you?"

After Gao Wei introduced his identity, he handed the courier bag to the other party, "That's it... I would like to ask your organization to help us detect a stone."

"Hiss..." The latter grinned when he saw the bag. He obviously complained about this packaging method, but he couldn't say it because of his face. "Are you looking for blood stains or DNA? However, the evidence may be contaminated due to improper storage. , I’m not sure the result will definitely meet your requirements.”

"No, that's something the criminal police will investigate. We just want to identify the stone itself." Zhang Zhiyuan quickly corrected.

"Is the gem appraised?" Bai Yan put on his gloves and picked up the stone. "Hmm...it might not be a valuable thing."

"No matter what, please provide an appraisal report."

"Okay, the fee items will be handled by the unit, and I will make arrangements for you right away."

"Wait a minute," Zhang Zhiyuan called him again, "Can I come with you?"

"Ah?" This was the first time Bai Yan heard such a request, "I'm sorry, Officer Zhang, the testing room is dust-free and sterile, you can't come in."

"Okay, sit down!" Gao Wei pulled him back, and then said to the inspector, "It's okay, just go ahead and do it. How long will it take?"

"One hour. You can go back first. The report can be viewed on the APP."

"It's okay, we'll wait here."

Bai Yan shrugged, as if he didn't understand the behavior of these two people, but they were official customers after all, so he didn't say anything more.

"You kid, calm down!" Gao Wei glared at Zhang Zhiyuan.

"Sorry, I'm afraid he will lose the sample." The latter said a little uneasily, "Did you know? This stone has never left my arms since I intercepted it at the forwarding station."

"I understand. After all, if everything you said is true, then it is the most important evidence in the world." Gao Wei smiled, "You want to prove the existence of paradise so hard, have you ever thought about it? Once you start taking this matter seriously, what do you want to do next?”

"I want to stay in the park and serve as a contact person for both parties." Zhang Zhiyuan said slowly.

"Well... this requirement is not high and should be achievable." Gao Wei thought for a moment, "But I thought you would want to join the detective team and concentrate on finding the whereabouts of the paradise in the real world. After all, you are young and capable, and you lack The most important thing is experience, and this kind of qualifications will be of great help to your future promotion. If you just stay in the game, the qualifications will definitely not be as good as the latter."

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Zhiyuan knew what he wanted to do. "If you have the opportunity to go to the park, you will definitely want to stay there for a few more days. In addition, I also want to tell the people sent above that it is best Don't be in a hurry to find the true form of paradise - it is our only way to enter another world. If we lose it, the loss will be incalculable. Moreover, paradise itself is not important. What is important is that we can go to the new world to explore and develop. "

"You can give your opinion, but how effective it will be is another matter." Gao Wei patted him on the shoulder, "Our credit is to discover this big thing, but if it is big enough, then we can take care of it. Things are quite limited!”

Zhang Zhiyuan nodded silently.

He knew his boss was telling the truth.

After all, they are just the Interpol department, and they are lucky to be where they are now. Without the coincidence between Joe James and reporter Judy, he would not have found Paradise. If the higher-ups decide to intervene, they will definitely arrange a tighter organization and dispatch more capable people to take command. What they will do then is beyond their control.

At this moment, the inner door of the reception hall suddenly opened, and a dozen people in white coats rushed in and surrounded them!

Bai Yan was also among them, but he did not take the initiative to speak.

The first person to speak was an elderly man with gray hair on his temples. He wore thick glasses and had obvious wrinkles on his forehead, but his voice was unexpectedly clear and loud, "Did you bring the stone?"

"That's right...it's us." Zhang Zhiyuan nodded.

The other person suddenly came closer to him, their faces almost touching each other, "Do you still have this stone? Where did you get it from!?"
