The next day, Wang Xu and Qi Bing were called to the principal's office by the radio during class.
As soon as they opened the door and went in, four big men in neat suits immediately blocked the door. But how could Wang Xu and Qi Bing not know how many people were in the room, they had already been mentally prepared, and still acted calmly, even if these four immediately took out their submachine guns and fired at them, they would definitely not be hurt at all.
A middle-aged man was sitting with his back to them, drinking coffee opposite the principal's desk. At this moment, he turned around slowly: "Don't be nervous, I am the captain of the special police team in this city, and my surname is Zhang. I would like to ask you to follow me." Go back and just answer a few questions."
Wang Xu was disdainful: "Are you a policeman? Who are you bluffing? This battle...at least at the level of the National Security Bureau? Maybe someone from Ziye pretended to be..."
Qi Bing was expressionless: "Okay, let's go now." He could only answer this way, because the headmaster looked at him with fear and suspicion, and he didn't know how much this Captain Zhang spread about him and Wang Xu. Rumors of wrongdoing.
Not long after, the two of them sat in a black stretch car. In a school like Xiangyi, even a super long Lincoln car is not too conspicuous. Parents of students here often take this kind of car Yes, therefore, they left the school so quietly without attracting any attention.
Wang Xu and Qi Bing sat side by side opposite Captain Zhang. When the car drove away from the school, Wang Xu took the lead and said, "Old Zhang, you can reveal your real identity now."
The captain Zhang sat upright, talking neither humble nor overbearing: "When you see my boss, you will naturally know our identities. What I can tell you now is that we belong to the government and represent the interests of the country. I hope you can cooperate with our work. "
Wang Xu looked back at Qi Bing, and then realized that he seemed to be unnecessary, because he couldn't see his attitude from his face. If Qi Bing didn't want to go with them, he probably would have done it long ago, so Wang Xu shut up. , continue to wait.
Many people think that those state secret agencies must have a very hidden base, either in the desert, or a certain military region, anyway, it is far away from the common people, and it has to be built underground, and the air strikes can't find the target.
But the reality is that Wang Xu's destination is in the downtown area of City S. The location is not considered prosperous, but it is not remote either. A ten-story building does not look like a residential building, nor does it look like a business building. The building can be called a factory building, or it can be called a warehouse. There is a wall outside the building, but there is no barbed wire on the wall, and there is no high-voltage power grid in Wang Xu's fantasy...
There are some parking spaces in the fence, and the old man watching the gate is approachable and amiable. He is sitting in the gate room drinking tea and reading newspapers. When the car Wang Xu and the others drove to the gate, he and the driver waved and greeted each other. Greeted, and then pressed the switch of the electronic door.
After the car was parked, Wang Xu and Qi Bing got out of the car with Captain Zhang, and they came to the gate of the building. Of course, the gate was not protected by the laser rays that Wang Xu imagined... But when they entered the building, they finally saw We arrived at some special places, because behind the gate, except for an elevator, there were only walls on both sides.
The four big men in suits did not follow in, only Wang Xu and the three of them filed in together. To start the elevator, the captain's fingerprint, voiceprint, and pupils were required for triple insurance. There is only one floor key left to choose.
"Generally, if people are invited here, they have to put on a headgear before reaching the final room, but you are in a special situation, so you didn't handle it like this," Captain Zhang explained.
Wang Xu sneered in his heart: "You still want to put a headgear on Lao Qi? Believe it or not, he froze your head into a mahjong first."
What Qi Bing is thinking at the moment is that the designer here is really clever, there is no sign on the outside of the building, and it is built in the urban area, which seems to be hidden in the city. It's like you pass by a certain commercial building every day when you come home from get off work, but you never care about which companies are in this place and what business they are doing.
Therefore, the location of this extremely confidential organization seems to be invisible here. I really have to lament the indifference of today's society... and those who know how to use the indifference of people's hearts to facilitate their actions...
The elevator door opened, and in front of them was a snow-white corridor with dozens of doors neatly lined up on both sides. It looked rather like the passage in the Matrix in The Matrix, except that this corridor had an end in sight, and Wang They are going to the last room.
Captain Zhang turned the doorknob, he was the first to enter the room, and then turned around and said, "Please come in."
Wang Xu and Qi Bing exchanged glances before stepping into the room, but when Wang Xu saw the two people in the room, he exclaimed: "Why are you two here?!"
Master Cat turned around and said, "Old Shang invited me to play chess, isn't this just the way it is?"
When Shang Weiguo saw Wang Xu coming in, he put down the chess piece in his hand: "Come with me." He stood up and opened another door in the room, it seemed that he was going to invite Wang Xu to the small black room talk.
Qi Bing asked: "What's going on?"
Master Cat waved to him feebly: "Sit down with me and continue, I'll tell you."
The captain Zhang had already closed the door and went out, and Qi Bing really sat down to play chess with Master Mao. Wang Xu's brain was short-circuited for a while, and he was dragged into the next room by Shang Weiguo in such a daze.
The strange thing is that the room next door is exactly the same as the room where Mr. Cat was just now. It is a very ordinary office layout, the same furniture, the same decoration, and even the placement of things on the table are like those in the mirror. Like the reflection.
Wang Xu didn't know the significance of such an arrangement. He asked the question he was most interested in at the moment: "Well... Uncle Shang... Aren't you engaged in antique business? Why are you here?"
Shang Weiguo did not answer this question, but stared at Wang Xu: "You really don't know where my daughter is?"
Wang Xu sighed: "If I knew, I would have gone to her long ago..."
In fact, Shang Weiguo had already asked Master Cat this question, and from the look in Wang Xu's eyes, it could be seen that he was not lying.
"Then, do you know why she left?"
Wang Xu laughed dryly: "I really don't know..."
"Then what do you know?"
"I… "
"Are you going to tell me that you don't know anything?"
Wang Xu only knows one thing, that is, Shang Weiguo is very dissatisfied with his future son-in-law, and now it seems that he does have reasons to be dissatisfied...
"Hey... whatever..." Shang Weiguo sat down on his own, and lit a cigarette for himself.
In fact, Wang Xu was quite wronged in his heart. His girlfriend ran away and there was no news. He had no choice but to continue to "work" to distract himself after that, but now Lao Shang brought up this matter again. The implication is that he is very incompetent as a boyfriend and has an inescapable responsibility for Shang Lingxue's departure.
Shang Weiguo took a breath: "First of all, let me clarify my identity. The name of our department is the 'Ninth Division', and it has nothing to do with any other government agency. Whether it is the police, the procuratorate, the army, or the National Security Bureau, we all look for it. There is no information about our department, and we have no right to interfere with our actions, but we can get them to cooperate with us through very convenient procedures. It can be said that in this land of China, we have the highest law enforcement authority.
And I am the person in charge of City S. I am usually a businessman, but when necessary, I can become a soldier or even a killer. "
Wang Xu didn't show any surprised expression, because he was a little too shocked...
Shang Weiguo continued: "Twenty-one years ago, our department was formally established. At that time, the government selected a group of people from the army, armed police, ordinary police and some special talents. As the veteran members of the ninth department, I am one of them, and our job is unprecedented, which is to investigate all events that cannot be explained by science, and to ensure that these supernatural things do not endanger national security.
Over the years, our work has never slackened. We have investigated ghost hunters, marginalized people, superpowers, and even the existence of Yin and Yang, but it is difficult for us to intervene in this world, because we are just a group of mortals. The best special forces are as powerless as children in the face of spiritual or superpowers. "
He took another deep breath: "Until ten years ago, there was a man named Yu An, the old man you call Emperor Song, who took the initiative to contact us and reached many agreements with us. It was all verbal, but it's still in use today.
The first of which is that our ninth division cannot come to disturb the lives of your ghost hunters. We quickly reached a consensus with him on this point, because we must also admit that you are all heroes, and you can set yourself apart. Regardless of life and death, to save and protect the heroes of ordinary people.
And he also promised that the ghost hunting world has an obligation to eliminate those scum who use spiritual power to do evil, which is undoubtedly much more effective than our intervention. "
When Wang Xu heard this, he laughed embarrassingly, his expression was like that of Shinnosuke Nohara saying: "I'm not that good~"
Shang Weiguo really wanted to add: "Only you are not like a hero or a bear". But after all, he is not as mean as Master Cat, so I can't say this...
Wang Xu asked: "So... today is this..."
Shang Weiguo's face was very solemn: "Today, I have to come to negotiate with you, because the development of something has far exceeded our control. If you don't rely on your strength, the consequences will be unpredictable …”
