"You didn't do it..." Wen Rulan's expression became serious: "Who could it be?"

After asking this question, he suddenly had another guess. He looked up into Meng Xing's eyes and got the same answer from the other's eyes.

"Wu Jin?" Wen Rulan said the name.

"I don't know..." Meng Xingyu frowned: "I saw him near the ring before, but before Jian Wenhong and the others activated the mental interference device, he had already left. He had time to do it, but. …”

There is no evidence for that.

Wen Rulan understood what Meng Xing meant. Not only did they have no evidence, neither did Jian Wenhong and Cheng Peng. They didn't even have any doubts about Wu Jin, and they were probably still confused and infighting about why the plan failed.

"If Wu Jin did it, then he is too strange. His so-called motives can't support him to take such a big risk to do all this." Wen Rulan pondered.

Meng Xing nodded in agreement, and added: "And I just..."

He wanted to say that just now he suddenly realized that he could not remember Wu Jin's appearance at all, but he heard footsteps from far to near, so he stopped talking.

He and Meng Xing looked behind together, and there was an employee working in the Upper Council walking towards them.

"Mr. Wen, I have found you." The employee breathed a sigh of relief: "The duel is over, and I need to trouble you to stay here for a while. The upper council has some matters to hand over to you."

Wen Rulan is the winner of this duel, so he is the next leader of the psychics, perhaps needless to say, the next one, after all, the S-level psychic should have taken over the position of leader when he was an adult.

This time, it was delayed for so many years because there were two S-level spiritual power users. Now that the winner is finally determined, Wen Rulan should naturally take office immediately.

This is also the meaning of the upper council, to hand over the affairs at hand to Wen Rulan as soon as possible.Although both Jian Wenhong and Yan Desheng were very unwilling to let Wen Rulan take over, but the rules are here, and there are three other members of the Upper Council, their ideas can't control the situation.

So when the news of Wen Rulan's victory was spreading to the whole world through the live broadcast network, the employee responsible for taking Wen Rulan to the handover came to him.

Wen Rulan understood the purpose of this employee's visit and also knew that this was a necessary procedure, so he nodded and agreed.

The employee led the way. Wen Rulan and Meng Xing followed behind him. They left the basement floor and came to the fifth floor where Jian Wenhong's office was located.

In addition to the offices of several upper council members, there are actually several vacant rooms on this floor, one of which is reserved for the future spiritual leader, that is, Wen Rulan's.

This employee was very conscientious, and helped Wen Rulan set up the fingerprint password of the office door lock, and brought a stack of documents for Wen Rulan to confirm and sign one by one.

Wen Rulan read the instructions on the document line by line, while Meng Xing waited quietly beside him. Although he still had something to say to Wen Rulan, he was not in a hurry.

This stack of documents is not too much, half an hour is enough to get it done, Wu Jin, he can discuss it slowly with Wen Rulan on the way home.

Meng Xing's estimation was correct, Wen Rulan signed her name on the last document, and it was only 25 minutes later.

With a "click", Wen Rulan closed the cap of the pen.The duel that started at eight o'clock, the time of the game plus the time for Wen Rulan to process the files, was just in the early nine o'clock.

Although the rest of them left after the game, it wasn't too long to work overtime.

While packing up the signed documents, the employee said politely: "The rest of the handover procedures will be carried out tomorrow, and we will be here tonight. Please excuse me, Mr. Wen. I will help you contact the driver to take you back. ..”

Before he finished speaking, his field of vision suddenly fell into darkness where he could not see his fingers.

The sudden darkness immediately touched Meng Xing's tense nerves. He reacted immediately. He couldn't see in the dark. Relying on the memory before he lost his vision, he grabbed Wen Rulan's shoulders and held her tightly. Holding it firmly in his arms, he was alert to any changes in the darkness.

However, there was no change, only employees who muttered "it seems that the power has gone out".

The heavy darkness was broken by the bright light on the mobile phone screen. While dialing the number, the employee apologized to Wen Rulan: "Mr. Wen, wait a minute, there may be a problem with the power supply system. I will call you a car."

As he spoke, he pressed the dial button, and a "beep-beep-" sound came from the handset of the mobile phone, but it was not the voice of the person being answered, but a busy signal indicating that he was not in the service area.

"Strange..." The employee muttered again, and he changed the number again, but it was busy again. He still didn't realize the problem, and was about to dial the number for the third time.

Wen Rulan stopped him: "Don't call, there is no signal here."

He also took out his mobile phone. The communication signal that should have been full in the urban area disappeared at this moment. It wasn't the employee who couldn't get through, but everyone in the area couldn't get through. There was a problem with the communication signal.

And...Wen Rulan turned her head to look at her side again, the French window with the curtains not drawn, outside the window was as dark as this place, the city that should have been brightly lit seemed to be covered with a black curtain, at this moment Only darkness remained.

It wasn't just this clock tower that was without power, the entire city was without power.

After being reminded by Wen Rulan, the staff found out that their mobile phone had no signal and the city had a power outage. They quickly apologized and said, "Mr. Wen, please sit here first. I'll go downstairs to see what's going on."

"En." Wen Rulan responded.

The employee then turned on the flash of the mobile phone and went downstairs in the dark.

There were only two people left in the office. Although the screen of Wen Rulan's mobile phone was also on, this faint light could not dispel the huge darkness that enveloped the entire city.

And inexplicably, after no one spoke, this otherwise ordinary office seemed eerie for no reason.This gloom not only pervades the office, but also the dark city outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Electricity has already permeated every part of human life, and it also maintains the normal operation of the city. When the power supply is suddenly stopped, it is as if the heart of a giant animal has stopped beating, and the whole city has come to a standstill, revealing a dull and dead air.

If such a large-scale power outage and signal interruption were normal, Wen Rulan would be able to deal with it calmly, but tonight, on this unknown date...

His heartbeat accelerated due to nervousness, and he couldn't help reaching out to hold Meng Xing's hand.The performance of the ferret was a little more obvious. It violated Meng Xing's previous order not to leave the body, and jumped directly onto Meng Xing's shoulder, curling up into a ball uneasily.

Meng Xing understood why Wen Rulan was like this, so he comforted him: "It's nothing, it should just be a power outage."

While comforting, he also touched the fur on the back of the ferret locked on his shoulder with one hand, and with the other hand, he firmly held Wen Rulan's fingers back, and passed his body temperature and determination through the palms passed to the other party.

With Meng Xing's company in the dark, it seemed that it wasn't so eerie anymore, and Wen Rulan's heart calmed down a little.

This silence and darkness didn't last long, and the employee who went downstairs to check soon came back, and at the same time as he came back, the light on the top of the office flickered twice, and then resumed the lighting.

Brightness can always bring people a sense of security, Wen Rulan couldn't help but relax a little bit, but he didn't let go of Meng Xing's hand, and still held her tightly.

Meng Xing didn't refuse, and let him hold it like this.

The employees didn't notice that Mr. Wen and his assistant were holding hands together abnormally. They went back and forth, and there was no elevator. Boss, I'm sorry, it seems that a typhoon is coming. When it landed, it blew down the signal towers and power supply facilities in the urban area. The government is already rushing to repair it, but it will take a while. The current electricity is used by the clock tower for backup The power generation facilities have limited power generation, I asked them to give priority to powering up your office, and there is no way to power up other rooms and corridors."

"As for the communication... there is nothing we can do. We can't contact the driver for the time being, and the entire urban area is cut off, and the traffic lights can't be displayed normally. It's not safe for you to go back now, or you should go back to the city first." Waiting in the office?" The employee suggested.

"Just stay here for now." Wen Rulan agreed.

"Okay. Mr. Wen, I'll go downstairs to check on the situation. I'll report back to you immediately if I have any new news." The employee went downstairs again and left after getting Wen Rulan's consent.

Once again, there were only two people left in the office. Although the lights were on, the city that had lost its vitality still seemed too silent.

Wen Rulan is not a person who likes to make noise, but at the moment he hates this kind of silence, so he took the initiative to ask, "What were you trying to tell me before?"

It was only when Meng Xing was reminded that he remembered what he wanted to say before, and he told Wen Rulan the discovery that he could not remember Wu Jin's appearance at all.

Wen Rulan also tried to recall Wu Jin's appearance. He also couldn't remember any of the other's facial features, but this was normal. After all, he hadn't met Wu Jin a few times in total, and he hadn't paid special attention to him. appearance.

But Meng Xing said so, he chose to believe Meng Xing's judgment, there is definitely something wrong with this person.

"What are you going to do?" Wen Rulan asked.

"I..." Meng Xing hesitated for a moment, he wanted to go to the negative second floor to find out if the mind-directed interference device was actually Wu Jindong's hands and feet.But... Except for this office, the power supply has not been restored in the corridors of other rooms. There may be unexpected dangers hidden in the darkness. Meng Xing can't leave Wen Rulan, let alone take Wen Rulan to take risks.

So he replied: "Leave him alone, even if it's his hands and feet, he is helping you. Since he hasn't shown any hostility yet, we don't need to pay too much attention to him."

"The focus right now is..." Meng Xing glanced at the time on the phone: "21:59, there are two hours and one minute left..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a dull bell.This is the tradition of this bell tower, and the dull and distant bell will ring every hour.

In other words, there is no more than 1 minute, and there are still two full hours.

As long as he survives the last two hours, Wen Rulan can get rid of this doomed death, and Meng Xing can also pass the level successfully.

Just get through these last two hours.

The two of them didn't talk anymore, simply waiting is very torturous, so Wen Rulan found something for herself to do.

In addition to the documents that the employee had given him earlier, this office for S-level psychics also stored other important documents, so Wen Rulan casually found a few and flipped through them.

He relieved his tension and uneasiness by devoting himself to official duties, which had some effect. The ferret lying on Meng Xing's shoulder was no longer uneasy. Although he still held Meng Xing tightly with his paws, Ken let go.

Meng Xing, on the other hand, became more and more anxious. He said to leave Wu Jin alone for the time being, but in his heart, he was thinking about him all the time.

He cares about Woo Jin a lot, very much.This person has simply become a thorn in his heart, making him restless.

Although Wu Jin's actions so far have been to help them, but he just... Maybe it's a deep intuition, he feels that this person is very dangerous, and he will never be a partner with them.

The dull and distant bell rang again, and amidst Meng Xing's growing anxiety, the hour hand crossed 11 o'clock.

One hour left.

Even though Meng Xing's anxiety was so severe that he couldn't sit still, he never thought of leaving Wen Rulan behind to find out the truth, until the system that had been silent for a long time suddenly spoke in his mind.

"Ding dong, the player triggers a side mission - to find out the truth about the tampering of the psychic force-directed interference device."

This is the second time the system has released a side mission. Meng Xing was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to refuse. He had to stay by Wen Rulan's side to protect her...

But before he refused, he saw the additional instructions at the end of the quest: "There are rich rewards for completing the quest, and after accepting the quest, the player can immediately get an SR-level protective barrier card reward. The card effect is as follows: Within a three-meter diameter range of the barrier, an invisible protective barrier is formed, with a defense level of S, which can resist all attack methods in the current world, including mental power attacks or thermal weapon attacks."

This is like giving a pillow when you are sleepy. This defensive card is what Meng Xing needs most right now, but the condition for obtaining it is that he must accept this side mission.

In other words, he had to leave Wen Rulan.

This side quest attracted Meng Xing both in terms of rewards and the quest itself. He had always wanted to find out the truth, but he was asked to leave Wen Rulan. He had promised that he would never leave...Meng Xing fell into hesitation.

"What's wrong?" Wen Rulan's inquiry suddenly came from the quiet room.

Although he was reading the official documents, he kept his attention on Meng Xing. He could see the hesitation on Meng Xing's face, so he asked aloud.

Meng Xing took a look at Wen Rulan, hesitated for a moment, and said about the system's release of side missions.

In fact, from a rational point of view, it is far more useful for Meng Xing to accept this task to find out the truth than to stay here.After all, he is just a mortal, flesh and blood, what can he do if he stays beside Wen Rulan?The protection that this SR protective barrier card can provide is far greater than his.

However, compared to choosing this SR-level protective barrier card, Wen Rulan probably prefers that Meng Xing stay here with him.Meng Xing speculated on Wen Rulan's thoughts based on his understanding of Wen Rulan.

Wen Rulan really thought so too, but he said: "Go and check."

He saw Meng Xing's hesitation, and he also saw Meng Xing's anxiety.

so......

"With the protection of this SR card, it's fine." Wen Rulan said incredulously: "You can go and check to make sure Wu Jin is fine."

While speaking, the ferret voluntarily jumped off Meng Xing's shoulder, returned to the owner's side, and looked at Meng Xing together with the owner.

Wen Rulan had already shown such a firm attitude, Meng Xing didn't refuse any more, he accepted the side mission, and then used this SR-level protective barrier card.

He tried it himself again. With Wen Rulan as the center, there were indeed more invisible but tangible protective barriers. Meng Xing was blocked by the barriers, and he punched the barriers hard, not to mention cracks in the barriers. , without even the slightest tremor, as solid as a mountain that has stood for thousands of years.

After testing the defensive power of the barrier, Meng Xing warned again: "The protection range of this barrier is three meters. No matter what happens, don't leave here."

Wen Rulan nodded and agreed.

Meng Xing stopped hesitating and turned around to leave.Wen Rulan and the ferret looked at his back together, and saw Meng Xing suddenly stopped before leaving the door.

"I'll be back soon." He turned his back to Wen Rulan and said.

Wen Rulan froze for a moment, then bent her lips: "Well, I'll wait for you."

Meng Xing really left this time. After leaving Wen Rulan's office, he started running. He wanted to finish the investigation as soon as possible, and then return to Wen Rulan's side.

In just over a minute, he arrived at the second floor.

Although there were still employees on duty and debugging the power generation equipment inside the clock tower, they were all concentrated on the basement floor and the ground, so when Meng woke up and went to the basement floor, there was no one there.

Meng Xing didn't go to the warehouse with the directional interference device for mental force, instead he went directly to the monitoring room on the second floor.

He had studied the building and knew that the second floor was a warehouse for storing data, so each warehouse was equipped with surveillance cameras.

Meng Xing is not a policeman, nor does he have professional evidence collection equipment. It is impossible for him to infer who did it from the clues left around the mind-directed interference device, but as long as he checks the surveillance, the answer will be clear.

Now, although there is a power outage, and the backup generator in the clock tower cannot supply power to the entire clock tower, there is always a priority for power supply, and the lighting for employees is secondary. This kind of monitoring for security is the most important thing. The echelon that needs to restore power first, so the monitoring room is powered at this moment.

Meng Xing went straight to the monitoring room, and retrieved the camera records of the B04 warehouse, which was equipped with a psychoactive interference device.

But when he retrieved it, he found that the camera record was damaged.

Not all the records were damaged, but only the camera records in B04 were damaged.

Meng Xing slammed the wall in frustration. It seemed that the other party was very cautious, and even made a special trip to destroy the camera record.

Because of this, he probably couldn't find anything. As I said before, it was impossible for him to deduce from the remaining clues whether it was Wu Jindong's hand.

Just when Meng Xing thought that his mission had failed, the system said again: "The player has obtained an SR card, an electronic record repair card."

Electronic record repair card?

Meng Xing didn't know for a moment whether he should be surprised that the card given by the system was so appropriate, or surprised that the system gave him the card on his own initiative.

But whether he is surprised or not is not the most important thing. The important thing is that he can finally know the truth.

Meng Xing immediately used the newly obtained SR card, and saw on the display screen that the message that the record was broken disappeared, replaced by the monitoring screen in the B04 warehouse.

Meng Xing recalled the time, and dragged the time of checking the monitoring to the time when Wu Jin left his sight, which was around 20:30.

At 20:30, there was no one on the surveillance video, only a piano-sized interference device standing quietly in the middle of the warehouse.

But at 20:35, someone came.

The monitoring angle was limited, Meng Xing could only hear the sound of footsteps approaching the warehouse, but he couldn't see the appearance of the other party.

As the footsteps got closer, Meng Xing couldn't help but hold his breath, and stared at the screen without blinking. Finally, the visitor was completely exposed to the surveillance.

It's really Woo Jin!

Meng Xing's guess was verified, he suppressed his excitement and continued to read.

Wu Jin in the surveillance is no longer the submissive look with his head down all the time in front of people. His eyes are straight ahead, and his walking posture is not at all nervous or uneasy because of the risk of sneaking in. Instead, it is full of randomness, like He didn't take the danger of being discovered at all.

There is still a slight smile on the corner of his lips, it is hard to tell whether he is smiling, or the corners of his lips are naturally raised, even though his face is expressionless, it seems to be smiling kindly.

Meng Xing saw Wu Jin's completely different expression, and that dizzy headache came again, and it was stronger than every time before, so strong that he could hardly stand still.

There was a sound of the seat being pushed and moved, and Meng Xing fell to the seat in front of the monitoring screen. He shook his head vigorously, holding on to Qingming, and continued to watch the screen on the monitor.

Wu Jin walked to the interference device and stood still, he sighed helplessly: "Obviously I have given so many hints, but I still want to do it myself."

As he spoke, he shook his head, as if he disliked the other party's stupidity.

However, if he disliked it, he still operated the interference device. After modifying the object of interference, he showed a satisfied smile, and even hummed an unknown tune in a happy mood.

Humming a little tune, he turned and left, but before he left, he paused suddenly. He looked up, and he finally noticed the camera hidden in the corner of the warehouse roof.

He smiled at the camera, and then a glass crack appeared on the screen, and the picture was frozen here, and Wu Jin's face was also frozen in front of Meng Xing.

This was the last scene before the camera was destroyed. Wu Jin looked directly at the camera. At this moment, it seemed that he was looking directly at Meng Xing who was sitting behind the surveillance screen.

Meng Xing had a splitting headache, but he didn't look away. He stared at Wu Jin behind the screen, wanting to see through the other's false disguise and peep into the other's real truth.Meng Xing didn't do anything, but the system's profile suddenly popped up in front of his eyes. Wu Jin's ID was still Wu Jin, and the profile was still the ordinary profile.

But along with that increasingly intense headache, the system began to flash the snowflake screen again.

And in the brief introduction of Xue Huaping and Wu Jin's ordinary appearance, there seems to be some other pictures mixed in.Meng Xing couldn't see clearly, the screen flashed too fast, his head was hurting and dizzy, as if the world was spinning, he couldn't even maintain his balance, his whole body was shaking.

Meng Xing fought against this headache, he had vaguely touched the threshold of the truth, only the last step... the last step...

Finally, in the short but long pain, as if he finally found the exit in the dark corridor, Meng Xing broke through the fog that had been deceiving him.

The flickering picture was frozen again, and the cracked monitoring screen still showed a smiling man, but it was no longer the ordinary-looking Wu Jin.

He has a handsome appearance, and his facial features are as perfect as if he had been measured with a ruler.

His name is not Wu Jin, his name is Wujin.

Emberless Vision's... Emberless!

Character introduction Following his appearance to reveal his true face, Meng Xing finally knew the identity of the other party, this is the giant python in the dream outside the territory!It is a monster born in the world of endless vision, the carrier of all negative and dark forces in the world!

At the same moment when the truth was revealed, the system interface suddenly began to flash dangerous red.

"Warning! Warning!" The reddened system interface uttered a rapid alarm tone.

Meng Xing has encountered fatal dangers before, such as bullets and cold arrows, and the system only issued a small warning under the attribute bar. There has never been such a warning that the entire interface is completely red.Because Wuzhu's level of danger was unprecedented, far from being comparable to bullets and arrows.

While the system was warning, it also changed the only main line for the first time.

"Main quest correction..."

"Add a second main line..."

"Execution... Wuxin!"
