Enforcer's Handbook

Have you ever suddenly regained consciousness at a certain moment and had a brief gap in your memory?

This is the recent life portrayal of the founder of Kolo Films. It took him a full minute to adapt to his current state. Everything around him was so familiar. This was a private office in the Kolo Films building. After it was destroyed, it became his temporary office space.

He couldn't remember when he came here, but the work text message sent by Guan Lili reminded him.

It's not time to rest yet.

Khloe Films is facing its darkest moment ever, and he shoulders the responsibility of rebuilding the company.

More and more information poured into his mind, filling the gaps in his thinking and making his past and future path clearer.

The tablet on his desk records his upcoming work schedule. Judging from the time point, he has completed one-third of it. The next schedule shows that he needs to attend an internal meeting of the Ragus Foundation. , to discuss the location of the company's new building and various reconstruction matters.

At this moment, the video conference is less than half an hour away.

The foundation supports his plan.

But then, the founder noticed something unusual in the schedule:

"Beware of predators. 』

Predator?

This was a completely unfamiliar term, and the founder subconsciously thought it was the name of a new series, or a new villain that a certain company was about to launch.

A few months ago, the movie based on "Enthusiastic Citizen" was a success, and there was a lot of discussion about the villain Chaiko in the movie. This inspired them to a certain extent. Some people suggested that in their plans for the next ten years, The "Rescuers Universe" created by Kolo Films should be given a villain that can run through several or even a dozen movies.

Although the founder has long since retreated behind the scenes and is no longer directly involved in the creation of scripts and characters, he still shares his inspiration with everyone from time to time.

Perhaps he was born to do this job. Even at the age of more than a hundred years old, inspiration always poured into his brain inadvertently.

But soon, the founder overturned his idea.

Because the prompt time of "Beware of Predators" conflicts with the Foundation video conference time.

This was a simple mistake. With the meticulousness of his work, he would never set up other things during such an important meeting. According to the schedule on the electronic calendar, the "Predator" would arrive five minutes after the video conference started.

Then, the founder was surprised to find that the time on his calendar had changed.

The Predator's arrival has been moved up, and there are a few extra parts in the text.

It will eventually come to itself in the form of a plumber.

The founder watched the electronic schedule carefully until it changed again under his gaze, which confirmed that what he just saw was not an illusion.

Is this artificial intelligence at work, or is someone trying to warn him of impending danger?

In addition to the jumping time, new content appeared on the electronic manual, which made him come to the window and look downstairs.

The founders did so.

The building of the private office is located in the DC area where there is less traffic. The floor where the office is located is not high, and you can clearly see the situation below the building when you stand by the window.

The founder quickly discovered the plumber who was reminded in the electronic schedule.

He was wearing the standard uniform of a plumber in the Fourth District, with a tool bag slung around his waist. The plumber was looking up at the window of his private office as if he expected the founder to come to the window.

It was a gaze that locked onto prey.

At this moment, the electronic schedule is like a constantly changing game task menu, issuing new instructions to the founder. This time the instruction is concise and concise, with only four words - try to escape.

The founder easily imagined the consequences of being hit by the eccentric plumber downstairs.

die.

This idea was so clear that he actually had the illusion that he was being hunted.

The founder took action when he saw the plumber downstairs. The latter did not enter the main entrance of the building, but put his hands and feet on the wall, moving as fast as a gecko.

This extremely abnormal scene made the founder forget about the upcoming video conference of the foundation. He followed the instructions in the electronic manual and quickly walked out of the private office.

And just as the plumber approached, a strange voice came to his mind.

"Xingoshi, don't you find it strange? Why are you here? Think about it carefully, how did you get here?"

Xingoshi was the founder's name, but he hadn't heard anyone call him that for a long time.

Everyone they meet has a unique title for him, among which "founder", "big boss" and "boss" are the titles he hears most often.

He quickly determined that it was the voice of a "predator", which indicated that he was most likely a psychic.

"It must be safe there, as long as you can get back there..."

The voices in his mind kept pouring into his brain. At the same time, there was a sound from far to near above his head. He clearly heard something crawling quickly in the compartment above his head. The voice continued the conversation in an almost threatening manner, "Xingoshi, there is no use running away. I remember your scent. No matter where you escape, no matter how many times you come back, I will find you."

Founders know they are being caught up.

The "Predator" moved so fast that it caught up directly above his head more than ten seconds ago. The reason why the hunt continued seemed to be just because the "Predator" was enjoying the process of teasing its prey. .

"Xingoshi, we're almost there. As long as you walk into that elevator, you can go to the ground floor. I can promise you that I will never tear your chest open in the elevator."

Disturbed by the voice in his head, the founder's eyes turned back and forth between the elevator and the safe passage.

Whether it was a coincidence or not, the elevator was heading towards his floor.

Just like the classic escape scenes in thriller movies, he is also facing a choice that can determine life and death.

There is only one way between the two that allows him to escape, or both options are hallucinations given to him by the "predator". No matter which one he chooses, the only outcome waiting for him is death.

No one with any sense left would believe the advice coming from the killer, and it was obvious that safe passage was his only chance of escape.

Reason allowed the founder to make a decision quickly, but the moment he took steps towards the safe passage, a fleeting picture flashed through his mind.

That was the dimly lit safe passage.

A plumber stained red by blood sat next to an unrecognizable corpse. The plumber's hands reached into the corpse's cracked chest, took out the objects inside, and ate them.

In that scene, Xingoshi found that he didn't seem to be able to escape too far, which was undoubtedly a fatal option.

Xingoshi didn't know if this scene was an illusion deliberately created by the "Predator". When his body had already reacted first - he ran towards the elevator, and when he arrived in front of the elevator, the elevator door was slowly approaching him. Open slowly.

A high-pitched laugh filled his brain.

"You're such an idiot for actually believing it!"

Xingoshi clearly heard the high-speed moving objects in the overhead compartment sticking to the top of the hovering elevator, "Congratulations, you put yourself in prison, but the real answer is to escape no matter which way you choose. It won’t end in dissection!”

"Mr. Founder, are you okay?"

A slightly concerned voice brought Xingoshi back to reality, and the people in the elevator were obviously shocked by his current state.

There were more than one person in the elevator, four in total, and he had a vague impression of the one who spoke.

"...Veronica."

After a moment, Xingoshi recalled the girl's name.

Her parents work in the counter-intelligence department. They have a good image and outstanding abilities. Before the filming of this season of "Rescuer Master" started, the person in charge reported in a work meeting that they wanted to make Veronica the default choice for this season. champion.

As for the three people around Veronica...

Seemingly seeing the doubts in Xingoshi's eyes, Veronica took the initiative to introduce him to the temporary partner she found on the show, "Her name is Valian, she is a law enforcer from District 17, and she is also a member of the team this season. The other two contestants are Zhuang Chi and Luo Jie, they are colleagues who came to District 4 to cheer for her."

Before Xingoshi could speak, the voice of "Predator" sounded in his mind again, "This is an unexpected surprise. At least this time you won't be on the road alone."

Xingoshi's expression changed, "Be careful, it's not safe here."

As if to confirm his statement, a sharp metal scraping sound came from above the elevator.

The shield above the head was slowly opened, and a ferocious face was exposed to their eyes.

Xingoshi always felt that he had seen this face before, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't find any clues.

The "Predator" was examining his prey, but when he met Roger's gaze, a shuddering feeling surged through his body, which seemed to be the fear imprinted in the genetic sequence of the creature.

This allowed him to "predict" what would happen now.

Unknown dark energy penetrated his chest, and both his body and consciousness collapsed under the energy.

It was a power beyond his understanding, and even a single glance was enough to make any creature tremble.

He heard this man's name from Xingoshi's conversation.

Roger…

Where did he come from? ?

The trembling from the soul forced the "Predator" to make a shameful decision. He took out his tool kit in front of everyone and showed the tools inside, "He was right, the elevator Some malfunctions have occurred and it is not very safe. You'd better take the safe passage."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I disturbed your work."

Hearing this, Valian quickly apologized.

She could have sworn that they didn't see the construction sign before they entered the elevator. It's no wonder that the elevator maintenance staff stared at them with a cannibalistic look when they opened the baffle - it is quite dangerous to suddenly start the elevator during construction. , both for them and the construction workers.

This sudden change also made Xingoshi a little confused.

The "predator"'s teasing words in his mind also stopped, and he gained a brief moment of peace.

After leaving the elevator, Veronica stated her intention, "Mr. Founder, we believe you are in danger now and may need our help. I know a safe hiding place."

Now the direction of this season of "Master of Rescue" has become to investigate a civilian killer organization. Veronica hatched this plan as soon as she learned that the founder of Chloe Films was still alive, but she knew that with her own It is difficult for one person to deal with the killers with his strength, so she took a fancy to Valian, who had experience working as a law enforcement officer.

Zhuang Chi and Luo Jie, who followed later, were pleasantly surprised.

As for confirming the location of the founder and the hiding place she mentioned, it was the result of "cheating".

She used sideline assistance, asking her parents in the counterintelligence unit to help.

Before entering the safe passage, Xingoshi glanced back in the direction of the elevator. Judging from the numbers displayed above, the elevator had left this floor and headed to the top floor. This convinced him that the changes in the "Predator" just now were not It was deliberately played to him, which also meant that someone among the four people really made the "predator" afraid.

Staying with them might keep you safe for a while.

Xingoshi checked the electronic manual again calmly.

The "temporary mission" above has disappeared, and there is no longer any entry about the "Predator". Time reminds him that the video conference of the Ragus Foundation is coming soon. If they speed up, they may still be able to catch up with this one. videoconference.

On the roof of the building, the plumber sat cross-legged on the ground, scratching his arms anxiously.

The sharp nails dug into the flesh, and blood flowed down his forearm to the ground. The wound was so deep that the bone could be seen, but he seemed to feel no pain at all.

At this moment, his heart was filled with shame.

Driven by instinct, he chose to escape.

The "Predator" carefully recalled the fleeting fear, which was different from the instinctive warning of danger. The moment he looked at Roger, he really saw a scene.

A scene of oneself dying at the opponent's hands and being annihilated by unknown energy.

It was all so real, so real that it seemed like it really happened once at a certain moment.

But when he started to think about it carefully, he could no longer think of anything related to it.

He made the founder of Kolo Films die once.

After falling from the top floor of the Eden Hotel, it was a pity that he could not obtain the body at the time and extract more information.

Before he could get close, Xingoshi jumped off the roof.

So, this is their second encounter.

So... when exactly did he die at the hands of that man named Roger?

Thanks to the sad prophet for the 200 starting coins!

Thanks to I Miss Zhao Moumou for the 200 starting coins for the reward!

Thanks to book friend 20210403175622784 for the 100 starting coins!

The small theater has two hundred and five:

It was early morning on Thursday, a certain day of a certain month of a certain year.

Early that morning, Song Lan and Lu Xiang went to the airport. They had not been back to District 17 for a while.

After sitting down, Lu Xiang naturally measured his body and rested his head on Song Lan's shoulder.

She suddenly asked, "Do you think we look like migrant workers away from home?"

Lu Xiang heard at the work meeting that this is a major trend in the coalition government. Since the core cities opened up to the peripheral cities, young people leaving home to work have become the mainstream.

Lu Xiang didn't know where her hometown was. Almost all of her childhood memories were spent at Daystar College. It wasn't until she came to District 17 that she felt at home for the first time.

Song Lan always said "District 17 will always be your home".

Therefore, she has always been very concerned about the affairs of the 17th District. Watching the security environment in the 17th District slowly getting better and urban construction becoming more and more developed, she always has some subtle feelings in her heart.

It's like making your house taller and taller.

Although the core city was a big house from the beginning, it always made her feel like she was staying in someone else's home.

Therefore, Lu Xiang also strongly requested that the wedding venue be set in District 17. This was a place of extraordinary significance to her.

But before that, she had one last thing to finish.

"By the way, let's go to the orphanage to visit the director first when we get back."

Lu Xiang suggested.

It’s time to officially meet the parents.
