I Just Want To Retire Quietly

Chapter 101: The Battle to Defend the Hollow (I)

Views:

Minister Yu criticized Tan Yan extremely harshly, gave him a warning, and punished Tan Yan to be confined for three days, recite the Criminal Law and a series of laws and regulations that reflect the values of a harmonious society, and write a 5,000-word self-criticism. He publicly stated that if such beatings of comrades occur again in the future, he will never tolerate it.

However, before Tan Yan could finish speaking, Liang Xian turned around and helped Tan Yan write a 5,000-word self-review and handed it to Minister Yu. His sincere attitude was a model for the industry, and Minister Yu was so angry that he threw the self-review aside.

"I was wrong," Tan Yan touched the bandage on Liang Xian's forehead, who had come to visit him, "I am willing to bear any punishment."

"But I needed this wake-up call at that time, and you saved me." Liang Xian grabbed his hand and said, "I used to think that as long as I kept working hard to improve my strength, I would be able to keep up with you. But in fact, my weakness is not only in my strength, but also in my experience and heart. When will I be able to keep up with you?"

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably say, "I'll walk slower and wait for you," but Tan Yan just smiled and said nothing.

The current situation does not allow Tan Yan to stop and wait for others, and he does not have the time to wait.

After Zhang Hua woke up, he tossed and turned several times, and was suppressed by sedatives.

Three days later, after the armed police and the police jointly raided Shen Biao's lair, Zhang Hua's emotions finally calmed down.

Qiao Zhixue said that his consciousness was severely damaged. Liang Xian had treated Zhang Hua several times but was unable to heal the trauma. He is now very weak.

"Although we didn't catch Shen Biao, we cleared out a dark force hidden in the sun, and it was your credit." Tu Zishi sat beside Zhang Hua's bed and read the latest intelligence to him. "You were able to leave clues for us even when you were controlled. It's really amazing. Minister Yu said that he would apply for the second-class honorary merit for you to commend your contribution to the country. If it weren't for you, we would still be in the dark and wouldn't know that there was such a terrible person behind the disappearances."

Zhang Hua didn't say anything. After he woke up, he first held his head and yelled "Get out of my head", "Get lost", "I will never listen to you" and so on. He always believed that someone was controlling his mind and tried to stay awake by self-harm. The medical staff could only inject sedatives to prevent him from hurting himself. After three days of stabilization, Zhang Hua was unable to react to things in the outside world. No matter how Minister Yu consoled him or how Tu Zishi encouraged him, he did not respond.

He lay blankly on the hospital bed, eating and going to the toilet, but not speaking.

The doctor said that this was the result of the brain's over-protection of the body. If it gets worse, he may suffer from depression. I hope he can resolve his problem as soon as possible.

Seeing him like this, Tu Zishi felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to cry again. But when he thought of Tan Yan's encouragement to everyone that day, he forced himself to hold back his tears. It was not that he couldn't cry, but he couldn't let himself become more cowardly.

At this time the door opened, and it was Tan Yan, who had just finished memorizing three days' worth of laws and regulations and came out to visit Zhang Hua.

Seeing him, Zhang Hua, who had been in a daze, finally had some color in his eyes and stretched out his hand towards Tan Yan.

Tu Zishi stood up and moved aside. Tan Yan sat on the edge of the bed, and Zhang Hua held Tan Yan's hand.

He put his ear close to Tan Yan's and whispered, "I heard them talking. The man named 'Shen Biao' said that the supervision in City B is too strict and it is not suitable for development. They want to move to a second- or third-tier city closer to City B."

Zhang Hua didn't react at all, but when he saw Tan Yan, he immediately told the information. It seemed that at this time his eyes could no longer recognize anyone other than Tan Yan, and everyone else was an enemy.

Tu Zishi looked sad. He and Zhang Hua were best friends. After awakening his superpowers, it was Tu Zishi who recommended Zhang Hua to the organization when selecting new members. But now, he has harmed Zhang Hua, and Zhang Hua can't recognize him anymore.

"'Shen Biao' said that he can control the human brain, but there are conditions." Zhang Hua continued, "The environment of this world is relatively depressing, which is not conducive to the survival of consciousness. He can't control people for too long, especially those with special abilities. He can only control their bodies temporarily, but they will soon break free from his control. For ordinary people, the time can last longer, about three to five days, and the number is about 10,000 to 20,000 people, but it can't last too long, because it consumes too much energy. There is not enough energy in the surrounding environment, and he doesn't want to waste the power in his body."

This is extremely important information!

Tan Yan knew that he had to call everyone over to discuss this matter. He grabbed Zhang Hua's hand and asked, "Zhang Hua, your information is very important to everyone. I can't convey it as clearly as you can. Can you tell everyone?"

Zhang Hua's hand trembled, as if he was afraid.

"There are me, Minister Yu, Professor Qiao, Secretary Xu, your best friend Tu Zishi, and the members of the Superpower Team. There is also Liang Xian. You are not familiar with him and have only met him in the interest group before, but you should have heard about Liang Xian's story and he is back too. Can you tell these companions who trust you and whom you also trust what you heard?" asked Tan Yan.

"I, I can't see clearly..." Zhang Hua whispered, "After I woke up, everything in front of me was blurry and I couldn't recognize faces. Only after you came in could I see clearly. I didn't dare to trust other people, fearing that they were pretending."

"Disguise? Is there someone disguising themselves as us?" asked Tan Yan.

"Yes," Zhang Hua nodded, "That night I heard some noise in Zhao Tianming's room. Just as I was about to go out to check what was going on, I heard someone knocking on the door. Through the window on the door, I saw that it was Tu Zishi with Zhao Tianming. I thought there was a new order, so I opened the door.

But Tu Zishi and Zhao Tianming teamed up to attack me. They scratched my arm very quickly in front of the door, and then I lost control of my body.

In that situation, I could only press the wall next to the door and leave a message. I was afraid that they would destroy the message, so I hid inside the wall.

Since then, I have lost the ability to see people’s faces. I always feel that I cannot trust anyone.”

It was not until Tan Yan rescued Zhang Hua from the underground casino, carried him outside step by step, and saw the sunlight.

"Since you trust me, then trust the people I trust." Tan Yan said, "This is the base, and I am surrounded by my companions. No one is pretending to be someone else. If there is, I can tell."

This sentence really gave Zhang Hua a shot of adrenaline. He nodded, supported himself and sat on the wheelchair, and was pushed into the meeting room by Tan Yan.

"Damn, Zhao Tianming is such a bastard!" Tu Zishi was so angry that he punched the wall after hearing Tan Yan's account of how Zhang Hua was taken away. "He must have revealed our appearance! I shouldn't have saved him in the first place. I should have killed him at that time!"

"You can't say that," Minister Yu said. "Potential criminal consciousness cannot determine a person's fate. Everyone will have the desire to commit crimes due to different emotions and reasons such as anger and frustration, but reason will suppress this consciousness. Zhao Tianming is just an ordinary person. If no one instigated him, he might have been an ordinary person in this life. The real crime is that evil consciousness. Zhao Tianming and others are just victims and accomplices."

"It's so tiring to live by the rules." Cui Heyu looked at Zhang Hua, feeling a little upset. "We can obviously do more with our power."

"But if even law enforcers cannot abide by the rules and regulations, then our society will rot from the root." Minister Yu knew that he had to calm everyone down at this time, so he spoke gently.

Everyone understood that saying this at this time was just complaining.

With Tan Yan's encouragement, Zhang Hua bravely recounted what he had just said.

After hearing this, Minister Yu praised: "You did a great job in obtaining important intelligence under such circumstances!"

Zhang Hua was encouraged and blushed. He said a little embarrassedly, "No, 'Shen Biao' controlled me at that time. He wanted to lock me up for a few days to wear down my will. If I can be as 'sensible' as Zhao Tianming and other superpowers, I will be 'one of us' and it won't matter if he tells me the plan. If I don't 'see what's good for me', I will 'deal with it'. The dead won't reveal secrets."

Everyone felt heavy-hearted when they heard Zhang Hua's description.

At this time, Qiao Zhixue said: "I have been thinking about one thing. Since the consciousness of the other world can turn people into zombies, why not do the same here? If a large number of ordinary people become zombies, even the country and the army will find it difficult to control the situation.

It was not until I heard the information provided by Zhang Hua that I realized that it was not that he did not want to, but that the environment in our world could not produce zombies. "

"It should be." Liang Xian nodded. "That is to say, the environment in the previous world caused a large number of human deaths, so Shen Biao could use his consciousness to control the corpses and turn them into zombies. But in our world, there is no such condition, which will weaken his power."

"I feel the same way," Ah San said, "In the real world and some apocalyptic worlds, superpowers will become weaker."

"Before, in the world that stopped rotating, Tan Yan once separated a part of his consciousness to look for us, and I was able to respond to his consciousness. But in the real world, Tan Yan cannot use the same method to look for Zhang Hua and others." Liang Xian looked at Tan Yan.

"Yes," Tan Yan nodded, "The environment in the real world is not suitable for consciousness to leave the body. I can't find the whereabouts of people who are too far away."

"In other words, our world is not suitable for the survival of conscious beings. If that is the case, why does that consciousness have to live in our world?" asked Qiao Zhixue.

Liang Xian: "The only special thing about the real world is the 'void'. He once said that as long as he has the coordinates, he can reach any world. The 'void' allows him to enter countless worlds and set coordinates in them. After a long time, he can obtain energy from countless worlds at any time."

Qiao Zhixue: "There should be some superpowers. Since he can absorb human consciousness, superpowers are also a great tonic for him. He can produce a large number of superpowers and absorb their energy after using them up. People like Zhao Tianming are just pigs he raises, making the best use of them."

After listening to everyone's analysis, Minister Yu said: "Based on your analysis, the place he is most likely to choose..."

Minister Yu tapped the map with his finger.

Shijiazhuang!

There have been two "holes" with a large population and convenient transportation.

Minister Yu said decisively: "Contact the Shijiazhuang police, mobilize all personnel, and expose all illegal groups such as pyramid schemes and cults. All group activities must be monitored in real time, and the evil consciousness must not be given the slightest opportunity to grow its power!"

The author has something to say: Tan Yan: I never thought that one day, "voids" would become a rare thing and we would still have to protect them_(:3∠)_

I'm very glad that everyone accepted the previous chapter very well. My understanding of this plot is that this kid is stubborn and can be woken up by a rough beating. Between brothers, there is no problem that can't be solved by a fight. If it can't be solved, then fight again.

However, the wording is inappropriate and will be modified appropriately

Continue before 10pm.
