Afterwards, Cyborg synchronized the information he had obtained with Zhuang Chenggong.

On the one hand, he mentioned Wang Yu’s previous reminder, and on the other hand, he mentioned the feedback from his exclusive operator just now.

After all, in name, Zhuang Chenggong was the person directly responsible for this operation, and he was assisting Zhuang Chenggong.

After listening to Wang Yu's instructions and Operator 21's words, Zhuang Chenggong pushed up his glasses and said softly, "It's best not to report to the higher authorities right now. We just need to rest and recuperate, so let's first count the impact and losses caused by the Value Game."

Cyborg shook his head: "I think it's better to give feedback as soon as possible."

Zhuang Chenggong said, "The situation must have been reported to the higher authorities in Nan Province, so naturally someone will come to handle it. You just saw what a Class B anomaly looks like. Can we handle it? We just need to do our part."

Ganggu glanced at Zhuang Chenggong and said, "Feeding back the information earlier can also provide more clues to the higher-ups."

Zhuang Chenggong knew that Ganggu was stubborn, so he held Ganggu's hand and said seriously, "I'm not asking you to give me feedback, I'm asking you to wait. What do you think will happen after you give me feedback?"

Cyborg frowned and said, "Send the seconded team back to handle it?"

In Ganggu's opinion, this should be the last possible solution. After all, the original team of Dayuan City are all elites and are familiar with the situation in the area. According to regulations, in the event of an emergency, the original team will serve as the final backup.

Zhuang Chenggong nodded, then slowly said to Ganggu:

"Even if it's as you said, but a team of those people came back to deal with it, there must be someone to cooperate."

"Let me make it clear first. I don't mean to be unwilling to cooperate, but I'm just worried that in our current state, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to withstand any unexpected situations. More haste makes waste. If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. It's better to recover first than to act rashly."

Although Zhuang Chenggong's words were rather euphemistic, he was actually very clear about the entire process.

When this incident occurred, the higher-ups must have taken it very seriously. In this case, as the Second Action Team, they were the strongest force besides Team One. In addition, they were the discoverers and reporters of the problem, so it was most normal for them to deal with what they had discovered.

Zhuang Chenggong continued, "Honestly speaking, from any perspective, we are the best candidates to collect clues... Even if you don't think about yourself, think about the brothers who follow you. They just came out of a B-level anomaly, and they are not in good condition to go to another B-level anomaly. Isn't this too much pressure?"

Cyborg paused and said, "These are all your guesses. My responsibility is to provide timely feedback to prevent greater losses."

Zhuang Chenggong sighed.

He was no match for Cyborg, and he couldn't use force. Moreover, Cyborg himself was not someone who could be easily persuaded. Eavesdropping was ineffective, so he said:

"You can report it. After all, it's better to report it earlier in this situation. However, I need to corroborate what you just said and get more information. I will communicate with my operator now. After I finish the communication and confirm the situation, we can discuss how to report it specifically."

After giving some instructions, Zhuang Chenggong decided to use the tactic of delaying the situation as long as possible. If it really didn't work, he would have to use a special method to get out of this situation.

Unfortunately, the best thing to use was the misplaced intercom, but it was borrowed by someone.

Zhuang Chenggong thought about his possible follow-up actions and then dialed the communicator.

On the other hand, shortly after Zhuang Chenggong left, Cyborg took out his communicator and, using his captain's authority, reported the suspicious points of the incident to the service department of the Abnormal Handling Bureau's Kyoto headquarters.

As he said, if any captain finds any abnormality in the branch, he must report it to his superiors immediately.

He couldn't tell what the current situation of the Dayuan City Abnormal Handling Bureau was, but he knew that no matter what the situation was, the current situation was not good.

The best way to deal with it is to leave it to the higher authorities for judgment.

……

Kyoto city.

Abnormal Processing Bureau Headquarters.

Service department.

Compared with the service departments in other provinces and cities, the service department of the headquarters will have an additional special hotline.

Specially used to receive important information and danger warning messages from the branch.

Therefore, the communication rights of this dedicated line will only be distributed to some key personnel of the Abnormal Handling Bureaus of various provinces and cities: the director, the heads of the six departments, and a small number of elite personnel.

The operators of the special hotline are all awakened people with auxiliary or relatively weak abilities.

Although they have weak abilities and currently have no good way to utilize them, they have completed their awakening and are highly resistant to abnormal events. They can avoid abnormal influences caused by sounds, images, etc. to the greatest extent, and can record and capture information more accurately and timely.

After all, we need to directly connect with the core figures of each branch.

The reason they are able to call here is 100% because they have encountered very serious abnormal incidents, so the operator has a very heavy responsibility.

The call was connected within a second after Cyborg dialed.

The other side also said in a simple voice: "Please speak."

Cyborg said, "I am Cyborg, the captain of the second team of the Dayuan City Operations Department. Just now, when we were carrying out the mission to contain the B-level anomaly, the originally planned support did not appear in time, and the personnel carrying out the mission were almost wiped out. We were lucky to survive due to special circumstances."

"The support was provided by a newly promoted B-level ability user from the Southern Province. We questioned him after the mission was completed, and he reported that it was the director of the Dayuan City Abnormal Processing Bureau who cancelled the support."

The operator on the other end asked, "Are you going to file a malfeasance charge against the director of the Dayuan City Abnormal Handling Bureau?"

Cyborg said, "No, please listen to me. Later, I learned about the situation through the operator and found out that a Class B anomaly had occurred in the Dayuan City Abnormal Processing Bureau. In addition, my exclusive operator's logical cognition and language habits had changed significantly, and he strongly requested that I return to the Abnormal Processing Bureau immediately. I suspect that he was also affected by the abnormal incident."

"What I want to say is that there may have been a phase change in the Dayuan City Abnormal Processing Bureau, but I have not received any abnormal prompts from the monitoring system. This is the most abnormal thing."

The operator on the other end of the line replied: "OK, got it, I'll check it out now..."

"The monitoring system inside the Dayuan City Abnormal Processing Bureau did not trigger the alarm of abnormal intrusion. I will try to conduct a self-check here."

The operator browsed the background log of the monitoring system through the computer and found no infiltration record warning at the node in Dayuan City. It seemed very calm.

However, the operator did not dare to be careless and immediately started self-checking.

After the self-test program was restarted, although there was still no obvious abnormality, the operator discovered the problem when reading the environmental information around the detection node.

Almost all the internal personnel had experienced brief periods of blurred vital signs that needed to be identified, but they quickly returned to normal.

This situation usually only occurs when the awakened person is promoted, because after the promotion, the vital signs may change, so it will be recorded by the system but no warning will be issued.

But now during manual self-inspection, this situation becomes somewhat conspicuous.

The operator also found that this kind of situation in Dayuan City mostly occurred when people gathered.

The operator then began to try to use the monitoring system to restore the movement trajectory of the people, and found that compared with before, the frequency of people meeting and communicating today increased by 324%, and a large number of gatherings also occurred.

Judging from this, there is a high possibility that something might go wrong.

Rather than believing that all personnel in the Abnormal Processing Bureau awakened and were promoted one after another in a short period of time, a more reasonable explanation is that they were all affected by an unknown abnormal event, and that this abnormality bypassed the early warning logic of the monitoring system based on the detection habits of the monitoring system.

The operator immediately said to the waiting Steel Bone, "There are indeed some abnormalities. I have recorded and marked the situation. It is being processed... It has been processed. The current plan is: Team 1 of Dayuan City's Operations Department will suspend group training and go to support immediately. Team member Steel Bone, you will lead Operations Department 2 to go first, survey the situation on the scene, take isolation measures, and wait for Team 1 to arrive."

Upon hearing this, Cyborg immediately said, "Operation Division 2 is currently out of combat capability. We just engaged in a battle with a Class B anomaly, and almost all of our members are injured and unable to carry out the survey mission."

The sound of typing came from the other end of the phone: "Okay, I'll report what you said to my superiors... Sorry, Captain Steel Bone, the superiors have ordered you to go on the investigation and allow you to rest after you arrive near the scene."

Cyborg didn't say anything, but just hung up the phone.

As soon as he put down the phone, Ganggu saw Zhuang Chenggong standing beside him.

Zhuang Chenggong looked at him angrily, and waited until he hung up the phone before adjusting his glasses and saying, "What's wrong with you? Didn't we agree to report back after I finish communicating here?"

"You know I'm the leader of this mission?"

Cyborg said, "It is my duty to report any abnormalities promptly."

Zhuang Chenggong laughed out loud when he heard this, and asked the key question directly: "Does it say anything about the arrangements for us?"

"Yes." Cyborg was silent for a moment, then said, "Go to the Abnormal Processing Bureau immediately to investigate the situation."

If you conduct surveys around an abnormal event, it is very likely that the conditions will be triggered and you will be involved in the abnormal event. The risk is quite high and is almost equivalent to intervention.

Zhuang Chenggong couldn't help but sigh and said, "I told you not to report it. Are you satisfied now? These brothers behind you are really unlucky to follow you. They just escaped from the fire pit and fell into the tiger's den. Oh, it's really... Forget it, let's delay for a while and go over slowly. We can just say that we encountered other situations on the way..."

Cyborg looked at him and said, "We're not going anywhere until we're fully recovered."

Zhuang Chenggong said in disbelief: "You are disobeying orders from above..."

According to Zhuang Chenggong's idea, they should move slowly. As long as they keep moving forward, it will be fine. Although anyone with a discerning eye can see what is going on, facing such an obviously inappropriate task, they can explain away the fact that they move slowly, and no one will delve into it.

But now Cyborg thought that if they stayed where they were, it would be a clear act of disobedience.

Cyborg's expression remained unchanged: "A general is not subject to military orders when he is away from home. The higher-ups don't know our situation, so we can only do this."

Zhuang Chenggong couldn't help but ask, "If you want to do this, why do you report it? If you have already reported it, why do you do this? You are not doing it for the sake of convenience, you are digging a hole for yourself. What are you thinking?"

In his opinion, doing so is a thankless task.

Cyborg looked at him and said, "There was no abnormality reported from the Southern Province because to them, this was just a normal cancellation of aid."

"For me, it is my duty to discover abnormalities, report abnormal situations, and issue warnings in a timely manner. It is my duty as the captain to do my utmost to protect the lives of team members and complete the mission. The two are not contradictory. Only by recovering on the spot as soon as possible can we provide support at the fastest speed. This is my judgment as the captain."

"This place has just been covered by the confinement zone of the mantle worms. The abnormal aura is very strong. No other abnormal events will occur here in the short term. We can only get the greatest safety guarantee if we stay here."

Cyborg briefly explained his thoughts.

Now they must recover.

If they drag their injured bodies and force themselves to move, they may easily suffer casualties if they are involved in other abnormal incidents.

What's more, the Action Team 5 that had previously escorted the survivors of the Mist Game was completely wiped out. Their current condition is not comparable to that of the Action Team 5 in its prime. Who knows whether this escort process will attract other abnormal events.

In the previous plan, the basis for allowing the survivors to evacuate first was to ensure that there were support personnel. Now the situation in the Abnormal Processing Bureau is unknown, and it is certain that there is no support. They cannot take risks.

Zhuang Chenggong nodded, which was the same idea as his: "But in this way, we will be disobeying orders... This is definitely not a wise move."

Ganggu felt that he and Zhuang Chenggong were not of the same kind, so he was too lazy to explain too much. He just waved his hand and said, "If Section Chief Zhuang has his own ideas, he can do it on his own. If he is worried about safety issues, he can stay with us."

"If the higher-ups ask, just say I forced you to do this."

Zhuang Chenggong had no intention of acting alone: ​​"This was originally your decision. If the higher-ups ask, I will tell them the truth about what happened today."

He lowered his voice and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Your current actions may seem to be very principled, but in fact, they are just your own meaningless insistence. They are actions that have no substantive meaning at all."

Cyborg turned around and waved his hand: "As you wish."
