It was almost time, and when Ying Xize came to the office area, all the command layers in Pingcheng had already gathered together.

There is still half an hour before 9 o'clock, and the lifting of the ban has entered the final countdown stage. However, at a glance, there is no smile in everyone's eyes, and it is replaced by tension that is even worse.

Compared with the ordinary people who know nothing, there are always a group of people who rush to the front of the front line and need to carry the burden.

"You're here." Ji Song took the initiative to say hello after seeing Ying Xize, which made the others look a little more curious in this dignified atmosphere.

There were not many people from the research institute present today, and most of them were managers of Pingcheng. I was a little surprised that Ji Songhui showed such enthusiasm for a young man like Xi Ze.

Ying Xize habitually ignored these gazes, and asked Ji Song: "Is the communication system restarted at 9 o'clock as well?"

"According to the original plan, that's right, but we just held a temporary meeting this morning, and after discussing it, we decided to start it 5 minutes earlier." Ji Song paused for a while, his tone as calm as possible could not hide the ambiguity. Heavy, "After all, in this way, we can better obtain more information and ensure the safety of the unblocking process."

5 minutes early?

Ying Xize looked thoughtfully at the time on the phone.

Such actions fell into Ji Song's eyes, and he somewhat understood: "Are you waiting for news from Su Fengzhou?"

Ying Xize paused for a moment: "No."

Ji Song smiled noncommittally: "Actually, when you were in a bad state that day, you already saw it to some extent. The relationship between you...is really good."

Ying Xize was stunned for a moment: "That day?"

"The volunteer experiment caused you to feel unwell." Ji Song said, "Looking at the performance of the leader of the seventh group at that time, if you really want to stop him from taking you back, I'm afraid even I will suffer. fist."

Ying Xize was in a bit of confusion at the time, and he vaguely felt that Su Fengzhou had some conflicts with the others in taking him back to the dormitory, but he was not so clear about the specific situation.

It turned out that Su Fengzhou's behavior at that time was... so fierce?

Ji Song apparently just picked up a random topic just to relieve his emotions a little, and didn't continue to say anything more.

The countdown seemed extremely tormented at this time, and the entire office area returned to silence.

In the era of rampant electronic equipment, there are no clocks around, otherwise, you may still be able to clearly hear the process of time passing in the sound of "tick".

Finally, the final countdown ended with everyone holding their breaths.

The staff took a deep breath, and announced loudly while pressing the button: "The city's external communication system is restarted—!"

The moment the words fell, dense cell phone ringtones and vibrations suddenly filled the entire work area.

Through the window, one can feel the sudden agitation in other areas of the city from far and near. It is obvious that the residents of other areas in Pingcheng have also been bombarded by the information that has been blocked during the closure of the city.

Everyone began to quickly read the received messages. At this time, those advertisements seemed particularly annoying, and they could only search for the effective content they needed as quickly as possible.

After officially feeling the signal on the eve of the unblocking, the people outside have come out of the residential buildings one after another and gathered in the adjacent square.

In such an atmosphere, there should undoubtedly be a grand carnival to follow. However, as the restlessness intensified, all the laughter and laughter were only left with exclamations and panic.

I thought that the news of the city closure that should be at the top could not be found on the hot search terms, but on the contrary, my eyes were full of words such as #怪式##异形##做天# and other words.

It’s easy for people to react to these contents as some new big-budget sci-fi film, but wait until you see the specific content of the entry before clicking in. The videos shot by people in different regions are bloody and bloody. Telling everyone that all this happened in reality.

The more I looked down, the more shocking I felt. Before the carnival had time to start, there was only the sound of gasping for air.

Under the huge gap, someone finally broke through the spiritual induction conducted by the guide before, and the buried memory about the alienated person broke out from the depths of his mind again. Under the excessive panic, someone began to shout "" We also have this kind of monster in our city", while desperately starting to run towards the exit.

At first there were only one or two people, and then a large crowd began to appear.

Once the panic was contagious, it became more and more out of hand.

The mayor of Pingcheng reacted fairly quickly, and immediately arranged for the team in the city to assemble and devote themselves to the process of maintaining order.

Just as he was about to explain a few more words to the captain of the guard next to him, Ji Song suddenly interrupted their conversation: "Not only do we need to maintain order, we must stop everyone who wants to leave the city."

"Intercept? Do you mean to cancel the unblocking? But... why?" The mayor obviously didn't understand very well, "Since the existence of aliens is no secret, it is doomed to cause panic. Is the situation in our city leaked? Shouldn't it be that important anymore?"

"In short, arrangements must be made first, and no one can be allowed to leave the city. If the masses really do not cooperate, coercive means can be considered when necessary." Ji Song's face sank to the bottom, "Now it is not a question of whether the news leaked, according to the Judging from the investigation information of the Seven Groups, excluding the few safe areas that may still exist, the outside has at least basically fallen."

The captain of the guard was shocked by the meaning of these words, and didn't ask any more questions. He walked towards the door with a white face, took out the communication equipment in his hand, and raced against time to complete the communication in the city. deployment.

The mayor also forcibly suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, and immediately issued new instructions to various departments, but he was not very sure whether his arrangement would achieve the desired effect.

Compared with these, what made him feel more trembling was undoubtedly the cruel reality that Ji Song just heard: "Dean Ji, so you mean that we really guessed right, the reason why there is no liaison officer outside is not Not because we forgot about our Pingcheng, but because..."

"There is no way to come." Ji Song took a deep breath, looked down, and quickly scanned the release time of the latest content under each entry.

Some were posted two or three days ago, and some have even stayed at the release date of a week ago, and a lot of content information is full of desperate distress signals.

The corner of the mayor's mouth was pressed to the extreme, and finally he gritted his teeth and turned to the communication department next to him: "Quickly check the signal system to see if the communication signals of several nearby cities are complete, hurry up."

Communication department staff: "Understood!"

Ji Song still stood there for a long time, and from the gradually chaotic sounds outside the window, he could feel the extreme fear from the hearts of ordinary people.

He couldn't help being a little distracted, until a voice suddenly sounded: "Teacher."

With a slight jolt, Ji Song pulled back his thoughts and turned around to look, just in time to see Ying Xize standing not far away looking at him.

It wasn't until seeing this young figure that the sense of panic that suddenly struck at the end of the world was a little more stable.

Fortunately, at least there is one last hope.

Ji Song took a few deep breaths to adjust his emotions, and asked: "I'm afraid there will be a tough battle in the next period of time. Don't worry, leave it to us here. You can go back and have a good rest."

However, Ying Xize did not answer his question, but asked in a calm tone: "You just said that you will form a new investigation team, and I want to sign up."

In one sentence, Ji Song's chest heaved violently a few times, and after being choked by saliva, he coughed again and again, almost breathless, and his expression was even more disbelief: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Don't worry, I'll be back."

While Ying Xize was speaking, his fingertips gently rubbed the screen of the phone in his hand.

Just a second before the screen went dark, it clearly displayed the latest received text message: [It's dangerous outside, stay in the city and don't come out. 】

It's just a pity that Ying Xi Ze is used to doing things in his own way, but he is really not an obedient person.
