Chapter 334 The weirdness in surveillance
"You still don't want to leave?" Du Yifeng saw Jiang Yue standing at the door of the power generation room, and he seemed a little unwilling to leave.

"Yifeng, it's easy to restore the power. Have you ever thought about it, in case there are unknown dangerous factors lurking in this hotel, the first thing to do is to destroy the power."

"What's the matter?"

"It's not easy."

It's okay to send people to guard the power generation room, but if you really want to destroy it, you don't have to come here to destroy it. The lines in many places can be tampered with.

Perhaps, the stupid way of patrolling is relatively feasible.

"Not to mention anything else, first move two barrels of diesel oil up. If the line is damaged, it can be repaired. If the diesel oil is spilled, there is no way."

Although Du Yifeng didn't want to do the dirty work, he couldn't stand Jiang Yue's insistence.

Seeing the two carrying diesel oil upstairs, Brother Na Zhi suddenly became a little unhappy.

"You two, this is not within the scope of the previous agreement!"

"Brother Zhi, there is still a lot of diesel under the diesel. We did not remove the diesel for our own use, and there is no power generation equipment available in the homestay area."

"Then what are you trying to figure out?"

"Brother Zhi must have heard the old saying, don't put all your eggs in one basket."

Brother Zhi was startled, thoughtful.

"Brother Zhi, have you thought about it? In case there are any dangerous factors lurking in the hotel building, the restoration of power is the biggest threat to them. If they want to do the opposite, what do you think they will attack first?"

diesel fuel!

Diesel is the easiest to get your hands on.

And once the diesel is dumped, it can no longer be collected.

Brother Zhi and Brother Hao exchanged a look, and Brother Hao nodded slightly, indicating that this is okay.

"Okay, take good care of these two barrels of diesel."

"Brother Zhi, there is another problem. Special personnel should be assigned to guard the power generation room."

"Manpower patrols must be arranged along the road."

Brother Zhi frowned: "Big brother, is it over? There are only a dozen of us in total. If you make such an arrangement, everyone will not be able to rest tonight."

"Protecting the power supply is not only the responsibility of a dozen of you, everyone in the homestay area should contribute."

Jiang Yue's proposal was actually out of justice, without any selfishness.

However, based on the interpretation of Brother Zhi and his group, this may not be the case.

Especially the two leaders Zhi Ge and Hao Ge instinctively felt that this was an infiltration of the hotel area, and wanted to use this to break into the hotel area.

As those who controlled the hotel area, they couldn't accept that the fat around their mouths was being shared.

But if they just reject Jiang Yue like this, it seems that they have no structure and are too small-minded.

"This matter is related to more than a dozen brothers in the hotel area, we have to discuss it before making a decision."

Jiang Yue naturally saw that they had selfish intentions, but he didn't reveal them.

Of course, it is normal for the other party to have doubts. After all, there are nearly 16 people in the homestay area, while there are only [-] people in the hotel area.

It's normal to be worried.

After a while, Brother Zhi and the others came out and gave an answer.

"We allow the hotel area to send six people into the hotel area to guard the power generation room area in shifts. The patrol work in all areas outside the hotel is entirely responsible for the hotel area. Of course, for those who actively participate in the patrol, we are willing to give food as a reward. "

"Brother, have you thought about it?" Brother Hao, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly said, "The ideal is full, but the reality may be very skinny? How many people do you think are willing to participate in patrolling in the hotel area?"

"It's simple, as long as one person disagrees, all the power will be cut off in the hotel area." Jiang Yue gave the answer.

This is a ruthless method.

Brother Hao couldn't help but look at Jiang Yue with admiration.

All the power outages in the hotel area?
Are you so hard on yourself?
Brother Zhi raised his thumbs up: "Okay, happy people. To be honest, I admire you a little bit. Brother, tell me that the B&B area is just like that. This is also a five-star hotel, and the room facilities are really no worse than B&B villas. There is also a suite floor, if you are willing to stay here, you can choose any suite.”

It can be seen that Brother Zhi's words are serious.

Jiang Yue said sincerely, "Brother Zhi, I can see that you are a straightforward person. I didn't participate in the clamor of the homestay area to attack the hotel area before. Now I am asked to transfer to the hotel area, and I will not do it."

"Oh?" Brother Zhi's tone was a little disappointed.

"Frankly speaking, I have no intention of taking sides, nor do I want to get involved in the disputes between the two sides. Even, with all due respect, I believe that this kind of artificial confrontation should not exist at all. It is indeed some people in the hotel area who provoked the incident."

Sometimes the truth is really hard to hear.

But Brother Zhi wasn't angry about it.

"Brother really understands people, let's go and watch the surveillance."

At the same time, he told his companions: "Ah Hao, take two people to the hotel area to inform them. Let's supply electricity to them for half an hour first. If a decision cannot be reached in half an hour, the power will be cut off immediately."

"Brother Zhi, before watching the surveillance, I have to check the front desk computer first." Jiang Yue said.

At the front desk, several computers were intact.

The network is definitely not even thinking about it.

However, the hotel management system is an internal system and does not need to be connected to the external network.

As long as you open the management software, you can find the information you need.

The professor's surname is Lu, and the assistant's surname is Zuo, neither of which are particularly common surnames.

In contrast, it seems that those with the surname Zuo are relatively rare.

On the day of the first change, there was indeed one resident surnamed Zuo, a 28-year-old woman whose gender and age were almost the same.

This resident is called Zuo Yongqiu and lives in Building 25 of the B&B area.

Jiang Yue was overjoyed, and soon found out that there was indeed another resident in Building 25 of the B&B area that day, named Lu Jinwen, 53 years old.

Right again!

Jiang Yue checked the ID information of the two of them, and after checking, he confirmed that Professor Lu and his assistant were requested on the task slip.

Building 25?
Every villa in the homestay area has been occupied by someone, and now that he hastily approached the door, the other party will definitely not let him search it.

If there is any top-secret information, it may have been hidden by the other party.

However, Jiang Yue soon found out that these two people had already stayed in the hotel area three days before the day of the first change.

In other words, Professor Lu and Assistant Zuo have already entered the ecological zone?

What investigation are they doing?Or engage in scientific research activities?
Jiang Yue didn't know anything about Professor Lu's identity. He only knew that he was a professor at Star City University. He had no idea what field of research he was engaged in, and which subject he was good at.

"The government can assign tasks specifically to the two of them. The research they are engaged in must be very important."

Thinking of this, Jiang Yue had an idea, and directly deleted Professor Lu's occupancy information on the management software.

In this way, if anyone else wants to check Professor Lu's information, they will be disappointed.

After doing all this, Jiang Yue left the front desk.

Brother Zhi was waiting for him on the sofa in the lobby.

The monitoring room is very large. There are many probes installed in hotels and B&B areas. Except for the rooms and some private places, there are almost no blind spots for monitoring.

But Jiang Yue had long thought about how to quickly check.

Soon, the monitoring in the afternoon of the first change was called out.

Jiang Yue mainly paid attention to the monitoring of the main road in the homestay area and the gate of Yunqiong Hotel.

In addition, Jiang Yue paid special attention to a surveillance camera near Building 25.

The monitoring in the afternoon did not find any abnormalities, and the hotel area was operating normally.

The progress was pulled directly to the evening, to an hour before the start of the initial change.

It was evening, and it was not yet dark.

Residents in the homestay area came to eat at the restaurants in the hotel area one after another.

Some people have already finished their meals, and they are wandering around in twos and threes, enjoying the scenery around the hotel.

From the leisurely steps of the people, it can be seen that people did not react much to the upcoming initial change, even though Star City officials had issued a notice at that time.

It can be seen that not many people take it seriously.At least these people who appeared in the surveillance did not over-interpret the official notice.

Perhaps compared to official news, people who are eligible to enjoy high-end resort hotels believe in insider information they get through their own channels.

This is a social norm. The more elite people are, the more they dismiss such official announcements. They believe in their own energy and their information channels, and feel that what they have is the truth.

It has even developed to a morbid way of thinking. The more officials refute rumors, the more they believe; what the officials emphasize, the more they doubt.

"There don't seem to be many people?" Brother Zhi suddenly said from the side.

Although the day of the first change was on that day, before that, the whole society had actually accepted the arrival of the weird era.

In that case, it is not surprising that fewer people go out to play.

Jiang Yue has been paying attention to the movements in the 25 B&B area.

To his disappointment, the figure he expected never appeared in Building 25.

Soon, Jiang Yue discovered that the humans in the surveillance were belatedly aware of it, but some plants that appeared in the surveillance obviously began to behave abnormally.

Just like what Jiang Yue discovered at his hometown in Panshiling that day.

The plants visibly became excited.

This is because the magnetic field of the earth is changing, and the gravitational force is changing.

The initial change has slowly changed from hidden to manifest.

Then, the monitor began to shake.

This is where the earthquake started.

During the monitoring, panicked people kept running out of the building.

Homestay area, hotel area, guests, staff,...

Every open area covered by surveillance is full of people.

Jiang Yue also saw the building where he and Du Yifeng lived. The family of three were wearing pajamas, embracing each other in the courtyard of the hotel in fear.

It's a pity that no one ran out of the 25 homestay buildings.

This time, Jiang Yue can basically confirm that Professor Lu and Assistant Zuo probably didn't return at all that day.

This made Jiang Yue doubt again.

Where did they go?

Is it because the investigation delayed the return and simply camped outside?Or encountered some unexpected factors, unable to return?

The earthquake continued, and the people under surveillance obviously lost their previous composure, and most of them became panicked.

Although there was no sound from the monitoring, it can be seen from their body language and expressions that almost everyone was frightened by the sudden disaster.

Especially after the huge full moon appeared, people looked into the sky one after another, becoming more and more panicked.

When the starry sky vortex appeared, the light beams on the ground continued to shoot into the endless starry sky, and the fear of the people in the surveillance reached a limit.

Jiang Yue could feel their fear and anxiety through the monitor.

Although this is a surveillance archive from several days ago.

Jiang Yue clearly remembered that the earthquake lasted for a long time, and the aftershocks almost never stopped.

After the starry sky vortex disappeared, people's panic gradually eased.

The vibration also began to slow down, and the shaking of the monitoring probe was not so strong.

at this time--

All the people in the surveillance seemed to have received some kind of signal at the same time.

Although monitoring is not shown intuitively.

But Jiang Yue miraculously felt that everyone seemed to be enchanted by someone at the same time.

Jiang Yue could even feel that their eyes became chaotic and lifeless at that moment, and then...

Everyone wobbled and began to gather in the same direction.

With an extremely strange stride, he slowly walked towards the dark direction.

It seems that in the distant night, some kind of magical power is calling them.

Everyone lost their ego and soul in an instant, and became puppets of some kind of magical power, walking corpses uncontrollable by consciousness.

He staggered, with a blank expression...

Human emotions seemed to be completely sucked out at that moment.

"Fall back!"

Jiang Yue greeted Brother Zhi and rewinded this paragraph.

Repeatedly pouring over a dozen times, at that weird moment, in this hotel and bed and breakfast area, it seemed that magic really appeared.

Everyone was recruited at the same time.

There is no sign, and the source is almost impossible to find in the monitoring.

All I saw was a group of people dragging their staggering steps towards the end of the darkness, plunging headlong into the strangeness of the unknown.

Snapped!
Monitoring disconnected.

Jiang Yue knew that there was a power outage that night, and the monitoring stopped working.

This time even Brother Zhi was a little uneasy, even though he was carrying it all the time, Jiang Yue could feel the panic spreading in his heart.

"This... What the hell is going on? So, is this the reason why there is no one in this ghost place? Where have all these people gone? Did they hit a ghost? Or were they hooked?"

Monitoring did not give an answer.

The time displayed before the monitor disconnected was: 1:45.

"45:[-]...Tonight, will we be like them?" Brother Zhi murmured, not sure if he was asking Jiang Yue or talking to himself.

Jiang Yue didn't answer, and kept replaying the surveillance just now in his mind, replaying the weird changes at that moment.

From the monitoring, in fact, it is impossible to clearly capture the obvious change at that moment.

But Jiang Yue was able to sense the existence of that moment strangely through monitoring.

This is a very strange perception.

"Rewind one more time."

Jiang Yue frowned suddenly, and greeted Brother Zhi.

The monitoring was rewound again, and it was repeated four or five times in a row.

"Did you see it? Are their noses moving? Look closely, are everyone's noses sniffing something?"

Although the monitoring is fairly clear, it is a distant view after all, and it is not easy to see facial expressions, let alone see the movement of the nose.

However, Jiang Yue quickly found several relatively clear angles and found favorable evidence.

In the picture, it can indeed be seen that their noses are moving.

That feeling is very subtle, like a dog looking for food.
