Phantasmal Genesis

Chapter 44: Hooked

Views:

A base in Tianhai City.

Zheng Shanhai just finished solving Chen Zhou's matter, and he hasn't had time to rest for a few days.

"Isn't it? Is there something else?"

Zheng Shanhai wailed and said, just now, a notice was sent to the two of them, and the Xicheng District Police Station found something abnormal, please go quickly.

"Not long after the establishment of the department, there were not enough staff, and they went to work on that matter again. Now it's only you here. You know, I also want to let you rest! It doesn't matter at all! Young people do well."

A man patted Zheng Shanhai on the shoulder and left.

If this person is not his immediate boss, Zheng Shanhai will definitely blow his head.

"Forget it, hey." He shook his head and reluctantly called his partner Ren Yuyan.

The two took the car and soon arrived at the Xicheng District Police Station.

Before they got off the bus, the two saw that at the gate of the police station, a dozen men and women were standing there, chattering and not knowing what they were discussing.

Zheng Shanhai walked ahead and entered the hall.

"I… "

"You came from here too?"

Before he could finish speaking, an old policeman sitting at the front desk interrupted and asked.

Zheng Shanhai was startled and stopped talking. He took out his documents and handed them over to the old policeman, saying, "We are here to deal with abnormal events."

The old policeman didn't even look at his documents, and suddenly said: "I said the director asked me to wait for someone here, so it was you who were waiting?"

"Is it abnormal? Those people at the door are abnormal."

The old policeman's voice was gloomy, and he said seriously:

"Since yesterday morning, these weirdos have been coming to the office one after another to turn themselves in. However, they also said that there are rules that cannot be said, and they have indeed committed crimes..."

"Then the regulations also require them to turn themselves in? What the hell!"

"I feel like they must have been brainwashed by a pyramid scheme, or it's a prank."

Zheng Shanhai and his partner Ren Yuyan looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

They are the top case investigators selected from the public security organs across the country, and it is rare for this kind of case.

Turn yourself in? Can't say the rules? Can't leave the police station

Intuition told Zheng Shanhai that this group of people was probably threatened by some kind of existence.

Ren Yuyan suddenly approached his ear and whispered.

"Is it possible that they are... within the system?"

people in the system? Some department they don't know either

Just when the two were about to find a place to discuss, a woman walked in.

"I'm going to surrender myself!"

Suddenly, the hall fell into a strange silence.

Zheng Shanhai looked at the woman, raised his hand to stop the old policeman who was about to speak, and stepped forward himself.

"Did you know that the group of people outside also turned themselves in?"

The woman looked at him strangely, like watching an orangutan in a zoo. She said, "I know, but this is the procedure. I will first turn myself in, and then be kicked out by you, or locked up."

"Process? What process?"

"can not say."

"Is there a rule that I can't say it?"

"Huh?" The woman looked at him suspiciously and said, "You know?"

Sure enough, Zheng Shanhai thought of Ren Yuyan's guess, and smiled slightly: "We are also a key part of the regulations, I don't know, how can you continue?"

"Ha!" The woman smiled and said to herself, "I just said, this must be an exam!"

take an exam

Zheng Shanhai pondered this sentence secretly, and continued to test: "You have such a good test result this time, you must be cheating..."

If there is an exam, there is cheating. If this person thinks she is taking the exam, then someone in the exam room says she is cheating...

The woman's pupils opened slightly, she seemed to think of something, and she said nervously, "Can you cheat in this exam? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Knowing that the woman was hooked, Zheng Shanhai glanced at her contemptuously and said, "You forgot?"

"I...forgot?" The woman was at a loss.

Zheng Shanhai stopped talking. He knew that this woman would definitely find an answer for herself in her heart and convince her flustered heart.

Sure enough, the woman spoke quickly and said hesitantly.

"Have you not?"

After a while, facing the woman's dilated pupils, Zheng Shanhai nodded without a word.

"I just said... How can people in the exam suddenly know about the exam... That's how it is..." The woman muttered to herself, the more she said, the more excited she became.

"You are here to help me with the exam, right!" The woman pointed at Zheng Shanhai excitedly.

Zheng Shanhai paused, frowning: "Did you just say that?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, and quickly covered her mouth, her eyes looking around, nervous, as if she was afraid that someone would hear what she just said.

"... I won't deduct points like this?"

Zheng Shanhai sighed in disgust, waved his hand, and let the confused old policeman take the woman away.

Wait until the woman leaves.

"So it is."

Ren Yuyan summed it up and said, "They are taking an exam. There are regulations in the exam. You can't tell others that you are taking the exam."

Zheng Shanhai nodded and said, "I've seen their information, it's not a cult organization, and each of them is in a normal life and suddenly turned himself in."

"By coincidence?"

"No, we can't let those people outside stop where. If every person comes, they exchange information like this, it will be difficult for us to deceive those who come later."

Zheng Shanhai nodded and asked the people from the police station to lock everyone outside. During this process, these people were all excited and happy, as if... passed the exam

There was a vague concept in his mind, and he was ready to try it.

Soon, a man walked in.

"Where's the police? I'm going to turn myself in!"

The two Zheng Shanhai, who had changed into police uniforms, walked out and looked at the man seriously.

Without a word, the man was brought into the interrogation room.

After recording the basic information, Zheng Shanhai looked at the man and asked, "Why did you surrender?"

"If you commit a crime, you will turn yourself in. If you have anything to say, just arrest me. Don't waste your time. I have something to do at home."

The man said impatiently.

Zheng Shanhai asked again: "If you are locked in the bureau, you can't take care of anything at home!"

"Uh... this... you don't need to worry about this, hurry up and arrest me!" The man was stunned for a moment, then said impatiently.

"Haha." Zheng Shanhai suddenly smiled strangely and said, "Don't you think that when you enter the police station, the exam is over!"

"I... I wipe!" The man was startled and looked at Zheng Shanhai in disbelief.

"You... how do you know about the exam?"

"How do I know?" Zheng Shanhai smiled disdainfully and said, "The regulations don't say I can't know!"

"... um, it seems like... there is really no..." The man thought for a while, as if there was really no such rule.

Zheng Shanhai laughed, the fish was finally hooked.
