Picturesque mountains and rivers of the motherland

central star.federal police.

Yeseiwo is next to a fence in the large garden of the police station.In the police headquarters, which is busy day and night, the large garden has always been like a decoration, and this bamboo path at the corner of the garden is even more inaccessible.

This is Ye Sai's favorite place when he is upset.

Yesai recalled what he had seen and heard in the past few days, and organized his thoughts.

When Pang Er was brought back from Huaxia Star, Yesai regarded it as a very high-level and expensive commercial kidnapping case.

Pang Er already had a criminal record in the police station. He was a black-gold mercenary who gave the federal police quite a headache. He specialized in collecting money for murder and arson.

The process of interrogating Pang Er was quite difficult. The other party seemed to have been damaged by drugs to the nervous system, and the words were repeated over and over again.As for whether he took the medicine himself or the mastermind behind the scenes, Yesai didn't know.

Interrogation did not reveal why, Ye Sai originally planned to hand over the person to the procuratorate for review and prosecution, but changed his mind at the last moment, and discovered his long-term residence by obtaining the information in Pang Er's forged authenticator.

Yesai went to Pang Er's residence alone. Unexpectedly, his residence was not in a place full of fish and dragons, but in a cozy neighborhood with an elegant environment.

The residence is very simple, and there are no traces of other cohabitants.Yesai searched briefly, but found nothing suspicious. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed half a red and black book in the hanging bag on the side of the sofa.

look familiar.

Yesai turned back by a strange accident and picked up the book.

Big characters on the cover - "You without supernatural powers are a gift from God".

Ye-seo is silent, he’s on the verge of PTSD about the book.

Ye Sai flipped through the pages, and a card fell out of the page.Ye Sai picked it up, his expression changed.

This is not an ordinary card, but a "black card from the outer domain network".

All the websites, interstellar stations, and virtual places of the Federation are attached to the interstellar network, which provides a smooth connection and technical support platform, and is also supervised and reviewed by the interstellar network.This is the responsibility and obligation entrusted to StarWorld by federal law.

But outside of the interstellar network, there are also existences that do not want to be supervised by it, commonly known as the outer domain network.Most of those who build and use external domain networks are criminals.

Extranets are not easy for people to connect to, and often require special password cards and connectors, commonly known as "extranet black cards".

Ye Sai's fingers rubbed against the uneven lines of the black card.

This card is not available to ordinary cats and dogs. Those who can build a black card for the Outer Domain Network usually have strong financial resources and superb technology behind them, and those who use this card are generally not ordinary people.

This Pang Er is just an ordinary black gold mercenary. Nissan has a special black market for buying and selling, and there is no need for such advanced things.

Yesai hesitated for a moment, then found a common Internet access device to connect.

After inserting the black card of the external domain network, after 5 minutes of connection, the page jumps to a website, which seems to be a black card of a designated website.

Website login requires a user name and password, the user name is saved by default, and the password is empty.

Ye Sai entered Pang Er's name to convert the number, but an error was displayed.Enter the end of the Yesai certification number again, still wrong.

Yesai thought for a moment, thinking of the "Son of God" that Pang Er babbled about during the interrogation process, but failed to convert the "Son of God" into numbers.

Ye Sai used Pang Er's forged identity authenticator to crack the password again, but the error message still popped up.

The error message of the box is very concise, and there is no prompt that the user will be locked after entering several times, which looks very humane.

Yesai called up Pang Er's file, and entered in sequence according to the major milestones in his life, such as the date of graduation, such as the time of the first crime, but still saw stubborn error boxes.

It was almost dusk outside the window, and the weak light with the last trace of tenderness fell down on the window sill.

Ye Sai seemed to think of something, and picked up the books that were put aside.

Previously at the home of the missing mech soldier, Yesai deduced information from the number of pages and lines he had recorded.

What about the other way around?

Ye Sai cut the code for identifying Pang Er's false witness into the words on the page, and searched for the words with corresponding numbers in the bibliography. Coincidentally, the combination of them is exactly one sentence - I will always be loyal to the Son of God.

Yesei frowned.

What exactly is the Son of God?religion?

Yeser has also been exposed to cases of extreme religious crimes, and he dislikes religion.Without going further into the meaning, Ye Sai translated the sentence into numbers according to the character code, and entered it.

【Welcome to the Realm of God and strive for the common faith】

A sentence pops up on the page.

Yesai was disgusted in his heart, and thought it was a major discovery, but he didn't expect that it was just a religious website, and there was a high probability that it would be a cult.

Ye Sai was planning to withdraw and hand over the black card to a colleague in charge of the supervision of the spiritual civilization of the Internet, but he glanced at the content of the home page.

This website is in the form of a simple forum, borrowing from the largest forum in the Federation [Skyline Forum], advocating "the simplest is the most advanced."

You can see many posts being refreshed on the page.

At this moment, the title of the post at the top is "Don't worry believers, the son of God has already developed a special medicine and vaccine for the CGTLP virus. You only need to apply in the mailbox interface, and the son of God will mail it for you.

CGTLP virus, the name given to the unknown virus discovered in the seventh star field last month.

In order to maintain stability, the virus has been kept secret from the outside world. In order to confirm the spread of the virus, the Federation also conducted tests in the name of the census.The sample test was carried out at the Seventh Starfield Research Institute, and the test report was issued three days ago.

The report shows that the virus covers a very wide area. Infected patients were found in nine star domains. Fortunately, the number is not large. Most of the cases in each star domain are concentrated in [-] cases. Compared with the huge population base of the Federation, it can be said to be negligible Excluding.

However, the virus is extremely deadly. Once infected, it is difficult to detect, and the incubation period is uncertain. It will kill immediately after the onset, and there is no time to delay it.

Therefore, the Federation listed the virus as an S-level virus, and ordered all research institutes, research offices, and school scientific research institutions to make breaking the virus a top priority.

According to the ad hoc research conference, it will take about a month to break through the virus, to find out the solution thoroughly, and to develop a specific medicine, which will take as little as three months and as long as a year.

These things are kept secret to the outside world. Yesai knows a lot because he works in the corresponding department and his family is in politics.

Yesei looked at the post title.

It's too informative.

First of all, this person knows the CGTLP virus, which means that the person who posted the message and a considerable number of people who browse the website also know the virus.Those who can know the existence of the virus and accurately know the name confirmed by the conference two days ago, these people are either rich or expensive, at least there are high-level military, political and scientific research personnel.

Secondly, this person said that a specific drug or vaccine has been developed.

This falls into two cases.

The biggest possibility is that this is a lie. After all, all the high-level members of the medical and scientific research circles agree that it will take three months at the earliest for a specific medicine.

If it is false, it is an ordinary scam, and the purpose should be to defraud money.

But suppose this is true?This is worth looking into.

If there are special medicines and vaccines that are true, or if this Son of God is an amazingly talented person, he will throw away all the medical scientists and scientists in the Federation.

The odds are slim.

Then there is another possibility.

The other party is the person who developed or even threw the virus.

According to the detection of the Seventh Starfield Research Institute, the spread of the virus is wide and average, and the average is as if it was deliberately released by humans.After all, viruses do not have the ability to level a bowl of water.

Yesai's heart was overwhelmed.

Behind this discovery, the rise and fall of the entire Federation may be involved.Ye Sai vaguely smelled a conspiracy, this conspiracy will subvert the federation.

For a moment, Yesai's sense of justice was overwhelming, and he clicked into the inside page of the post, trying to find clues.

However, to his disappointment, the main post of this post just repeated the title, and the replies below were all worthless, all flattering like "Thanks to the Son of God", "I will always be loyal to the Son of God", "The Son of God is indeed the greatest existence" and so on .

Ye Sai looked at the content of the forum for a while, and most of them were discussions on current affairs and military affairs.The more Ye Sai watched, the more frightened he became. Most of these people knew the secret news from the military and political circles. Or, this group of people had powerful and terrifying channels to know the news, or, this group of people themselves were very important figures in the military and political circles.

Either way, it's shocking.

Most of the most popular posts on the forum are about the cultivation of supernatural powers, and among these posts, there are constant replies who mention "thank you, son of god", "fortunately, there is the elixir of son of god", etc. Ye Sai guessed that this son of god Only by being able to develop drugs to improve abilities can they gain the support of this group of people.

Ye Sai clicked on a red triangle icon in the upper right corner of the forum and found that it was a personal mailbox.

There is only one receipt and one reply letter in the mailbox.

Ye Sai clicked on the received letter and found that the date of receipt was not far away, just a week ago.

The sender shows—Son of God.

Ye Sai's pupils widened suddenly.

The content of the letter is only a few words.

"Go to Huaxia Star, the fourth star field, to capture Bai Ting alive. You need to make sure everything is safe. The employment payment has been transferred to your account. Remember, the movement should be quiet, and there must be a living person. Wait for the good news."

Ye Sai checked Pang Er's account and found that a huge sum of money was remitted a week ago, but the sender could not be traced through the online system operation of the black market.

Ye Sai quickly concluded that this was a one-sided link.The Son of God knows all the information about Pang Er, such as his identity, ability, bank account, etc.However, since Pang Er was still unable to spit out any news when he was in a state of confusion, it can be seen that Pang Er knew nothing about the Son of God.

Ye Sai clicked on the reply letter, confirming his thoughts.There is no useful information in the reply, and the whole text is Pang Er's words about being flattered by the mission given by the Son of God, willing to work for the Son of God, and so on.

The amount of information was too large, and Ye Sai couldn't digest it for a while. He planned to take the black card back to the federal police station before making further plans.

Years of police experience made Yesai cautious. He took out the screen recorder and lit the forum to record.

When recording to the third page, the screen suddenly went black.

Ye Sai checked the equipment circuit, and there was no problem. Is there something wrong with the website itself?Or, the other party discovered his existence and cut off the link authority of this black card in the outer domain network?

Time goes back to the present.

Ye Sai regained consciousness from the memory, and took out the black card of the outer domain network that had been hidden in the storage device.He has linked several times in the past few days, but there is no response.

He confirmed it with Bai Ting, and Bai Ting was sure that he and Pang Er did not know each other, nor did he have any strange beliefs.

Ye Sai looked up and looked at the sky.

Today's clouds shattered into eggs, as if the sky was shedding tears.

Virus?Bai Ting?Son of God?

What is the connection between them?

==

at the same time.

Another tall building in Central Star.

The old man looked at the screen in front of him with resentment. On the screen was the photo of Ye Sai's entry formula.

"What a troublesome person." The old man complained.

What answered him was the chuckle of the man by the window.

The old man thought that a few days ago, the anti-reconnaissance website he set up on the extranet suddenly sent a message of abnormal monitoring, and some people failed to log in with wrong passwords many times.

The old man only glanced at it and found that it finally logged in successfully, so he didn't care. Maybe someone was drunk, maybe someone had a bad memory.

It wasn't until the man reminded him that it's better to be cautious in everything, that he carefully checked the abnormal information.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

The account of the login person turned out to be Pang Er.

You know, Pang Er was arrested at the Federal Police Station a few days ago, and the old man didn't know whether he failed in his mission to capture Bai Ting, or he didn't take any action at all.

It was inevitable that Pang Er leaked the news, and the old man gave him some drugs that would damage the nerve center.

In any case, this registrant cannot be Pang Er.

If it wasn't Pang Er, the most likely possibility would be to arrest Yesai who interrogated Pang Er.

The old man: "May I find a chance to get rid of Ye Sai."

The man by the window smiled and said, "Don't, it will be of great use for me to keep him."

The old man disliked: "What's the use? Although I directly shut down his permission to browse the website, I don't know how much content he saw before that."

The man didn't take it seriously: "Although the content inside is not irrelevant, it is not fatal. Just read it."

"You have such a good attitude." The old man's tone was three points sarcastic, seven points envious.

The man looked at the clouds in the sky: "Did you know? Sometimes, a crisis is also an opportunity. Thank you Officer Ye, I already have a brilliant idea."

"Naturally, I trust the Son of God. Oh yes, what about Bai Ting? Did Pang Er make a move? It doesn't matter if he didn't. If he did, but didn't catch him back, then we might have to re-evaluate Bai Ting's strength."

The man by the window did not speak, watching a butterfly fly into the window and land on the curtain.

The butterflies seem to be attracted by the fragrance of the room, greedily stretching their tentacles.

The man sneered and pinched the butterfly's wings.

The butterfly desperately tried to break free, but the man swiftly removed its wings.

The old man watched the man's movements and remained silent.

The man shook the butterfly powder in his hand, and said quietly: "Boss Bai is indeed not to be underestimated. Since it is difficult to know the depth of it, why don't you go and meet him, and then remove his right and left arm."

Huaxia Star, West Lake Villa.

Bai Ting and Lou Kaimo had breakfast.Suddenly, Bai Ting put down the tableware.

"What's wrong?" Lou Kaimo saw Bai Ting's expression was different.

Bai Ting: "No, accompany me to a new scenic spot later."

Just ten seconds ago, the Shenzhou system issued a notification sound: "Congratulations to the host, the new map has been successfully opened, Shanghai."

Shanghai, the magic capital in people's mouth.

This city has sky-high housing prices, increasingly high living costs, impenetrable driveways, and total inconvenience.

But at the same time, this city also has youthful dreams and an inclusive environment.

Bai Ting was born here and spent most of his student years here.

The whole of Shanghai was unlocked as a scenic spot. In order to match its status as the number one city in China's CDP, the system set a sky-high unlocking fee for it, which almost cost Kuoting's fortune.

Bai Ting still chose to unlock Shanghai without hesitation——

This is the city that he keeps cutting and straightening out, the city that has witnessed his transformation from a babbling child to a handsome young man, and the city where he has been happy and sad for many years.

Bai Ting led Lou Kaimo, and the two slowly wandered around the streets of Shanghai.

The roads are new or old, wide or narrow, and there are occasional French plane trees lined up on a street. The old villas are hidden behind the plane trees, not showing the mountains or showing water.

Such a quiet street was once what Bai Ting longed for.

But at this moment, there is only an empty shell left in the city. The mediocrity of the past is gone, but the human touch is also gone.

When a city is without thousands of lights, it is not a complete city after all.

Lou Kaimo felt Bai Ting's loss, and gently touched the back of his hand to comfort him.

Bai Ting: "Let's go to the Town God's Temple for a walk."

"it is good."

When he was a child, Bai Ting always thought that the Town God's Temple was unique to Shanghai. It wasn't until he traveled to many places and saw the Town God's Temple in many cities that he realized that the City God is the lord of the city in the world of ghosts and gods. The whole city is in danger.

The original city gods had no names, but gradually local officials with political achievements, patriots, loyal and benevolent people became the city gods of the city.For example, Yang Shushan, the city god of Beijing, Ji Yongning, the city god of Urumqi, Wen Tianxiang, the city god of Hangzhou, and so on.

The Shanghai City God Temple is the only one in China, enshrining three city gods, Qin Yubo, Huo Guang, and Chen Huacheng.And in the City God's Hall is Qin Yubo.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Qin Yubo resigned from office and lived in seclusion in Shanghai County because he was dissatisfied with the war.Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he was a clean and honest official and managed well, so he sent people to invite him to come out of the mountain many times, but they all declined.Then Zhu Yuanzhang came in person, and Qin Yubo agreed to serve as an official in Nanjing, and he was loved by the people.After he died of illness, he was granted the title of City God of Shanghai by Zhu Yuanzhang.

It is said that in the Ming Dynasty, the city of Shanghai was repeatedly invaded by Japanese pirates, and the people complained a lot.The governor went to Shanghai for inspection. In order to cover up his repeated defeats, Wang Jing, the general soldier, falsely accused the Shanghai people of collaborating with Japanese pirates. The governor believed it and accepted Wang Jing's suggestion to massacre the Shanghai people.As a result, at night, the governor dreamed of Qin Yubo, the city god of Shanghai, to explain the truth, and sanctioned the commander-in-chief Wang Jing.

Since then, Town God's Temple has become more and more sacred in the hearts of the people, and the incense has become more and more prosperous.

In modern times, there are more and more controversies about Shanghai Town God's Temple, fakes are everywhere, and sex is often seen, and it is even rated as one of the most popular attractions for foreign tourists.

But for the people of Ala Shanghai, and for Bai Ting, there are many good times there.

First go to the temple to burn incense sticks, and walk across the Jiuqu Bridge to pray for a smooth year.

Then enter the childhood favorite foraging link.Begonia cake, Ningbo glutinous rice balls, Shanghai restaurant eight-treasure rice, Nanxiang steamed buns, pear paste candies...these ordinary-looking foods in today's restaurants are the childhood memories of many Shanghainese.

After eating and drinking enough, wander into the surrounding alleys, old houses, Shikumen, dormer windows, where the rapid development of the city has not followed the rapid development of the city, retaining the years of old Shanghai.

Lou Kaimo and Bai Ting turned around, they finished eating the snacks on the street, and then came to the City God's Hall to pay their respects.

"Make a wish." Bai Ting lit a stick of incense and handed it to Lou Kaimo.

Lou Kaimo held up the incense, turned his head and asked Bai Ting: "Do you have faith?"

Bai Ting: "I believe in Marx and Engels. What about you?"

Lou Kaimo lowered his head: "I didn't believe anything at first."

Bai Ting let out a "hum", a girlish CEO who believed in Wishing Lake, said "I don't believe in anything", which is really not convincing.

Lou Kaimo didn't explain, and imitated Bai Ting to make a wish by inserting incense.

I was sure, I didn't believe anything.

There are too many long nights alone, and I am used to the quiet and deep night, so I don't long for the hope and enthusiasm of dawn.

And your presence is a gift from God.Because of God's favor, I can have you.

If it wasn't for that accident, if I couldn't get over myself, if you didn't want to give me a chance, we would all miss it by a minute, a second, a tiny bit.

I was sure, I didn't believe anything.

But I now believe that there is a god in the sky, and good will be rewarded.

And you are all my beliefs.
