For Xu Ying, going to the underground human base was a very easy thing.
Just like now, she and Xu Xin were already walking on the bustling city streets.
Both of them wore masks and sunglasses on their faces. After all, their images are deeply rooted in people's hearts. If they don't cover them up, there will probably be big problems.
The last time Xu Ying appeared next to the statue in the city center, it is still in the headlines of the news and the popularity has never subsided.
If these two people appeared together, it would be even more chaotic.
Of course, in addition to the two of them, there was also a little brown and white guy on Xu Xin's shoulder.
Faced with the busy streets, the little guy acted a little timid. He kept lying on Xu Xin's shoulder without moving, and had no intention of jumping down and walking by himself.
But this is normal. This little guy Coco is very shy. From the first time I saw it, it has been very resistant to strangers and even doesn't let anyone touch it except Xu Xin.
At that time, even Li Wenxi took a long time to build a good relationship with it.
Now seeing strangers everywhere, even though the little guy has become accustomed to contact with humans during this period, he is still very timid.
The little head moved around, looking at everything around it with a very curious look.
Its cute little appearance attracted the attention of many people around, and they all looked over at the two of them.
In addition, the two of them were dressed very uniquely at the time, and they attracted a lot of attention along the way.
"Brother, you shouldn't have brought this little thing out." Xu Ying glanced at the lump on Xu Xin's shoulder.
"Uh... I didn't know this little guy would get so many people turning back to look at him." Xu Xin was helpless.
“Bing!” Although the little fellow was a little uneasy because of being stared at by the crowd, he still looked at Xu Ying dissatisfiedly and waved his little paws, “Bing, ing, ing!”
"Ah! So cute!"
"What kind of animal is this?"
"Is it a puppy or a bear?"
There were screams all around, and even people shouting.
Coco is so cute that she simply conquers everyone around her.
"Even a thousand years ago, if you walked down the street with a red panda, you would get almost 100% of people turning their heads to look at you. Not to mention the people today. They have never even seen a red panda, a species that was on the verge of extinction a thousand years ago!"
Xu Ying whispered, then glared at those who had been looking at the two of them.
Unfortunately, she was wearing sunglasses and a mask, so people couldn't see Xu Ying's fierce expression at all.
Of course, when Xu Ying looked at them, they still felt Xu Ying's dissatisfaction and subconsciously turned their heads away with some embarrassment.
"Haha, the people here are of very high quality." Xu Xin said with a smile.
"This is the central city of the underground human base. It is under the feet of gods, so of course the quality is high." Xu Ying pointed at the statues of the two people not far away, "How about it? Isn't it magnificent when you look closer?"
“Very magnificent indeed.”
"Um, hello!"
At this time, a woman's voice came from behind the two of them.
The two looked back and saw a woman in formal clothes holding a microphone standing behind them.
Next to him was a young man carrying a camera.
"Hello! Can I interview you?"
"Who are you… "
"I am a reporter from xx News. I am currently interviewing the public and would like to hear everyone's opinions on the appearance of the 'god' a few days ago. May I ask you two..."
"No!" Xu Ying immediately refused and pulled Xu Xin forward quickly.
Coco climbed onto Xu Xin's other shoulder and looked curiously at the man and woman behind her.
"Hey, please wait a moment!"
The female reporter was chasing closely behind him.
The photographer also ran very fast, even faster than the female reporter, and took a lot of photos of the two of them.
"I say, do we need to hide now? Didn't you say that the situation in the underground world has been basically resolved?"
Xu Xin was forced to be pulled forward.
His sister was stronger than him and couldn't stop at all.
"What a hassle! I'm just showing you around here. It would be terrible if they pester me! I have social anxiety and I don't want to be interviewed."
"You're still socially anxious... At worst, you can just teleport away."
Xu Xin was not on guard against the reporter and the young man behind him.
because…
He could read the thoughts of both of them.
These two people are so weird! Wearing masks and sunglasses, and with an unknown cute little thing I have never seen before!
The most important thing is, it’s a man and a woman!
No way, I won’t really encounter the real thing!
Regardless of whether it is true or not, we must interview them!
That little animal is so cute!
The female reporter was very excited.
The photographer had basically the same idea.
Is this true or false? Is this true or false
The voice of the woman just now sounded similar to the voice of the god that appeared next to the statue of the god!
Could these two be our 'Gods'
Xu Xin smiled helplessly as he was pulled forward.
It seems that they have now been recognized by the two sharp guys behind them.
Their appearance would indeed arouse suspicion.
Especially the two people behind him, they are a team of reporters who are specifically responsible for interviewing passers-by about their views on the "appearance of gods". Naturally, their minds are full of thoughts about gods, and they have also watched the images of Xu Ying and Li Wenxi beside the statue countless times.
It was normal that they could recognize the two people.
It’s a pity that Xu Xin and Xu Ying don’t have much time.
The two of them came to walk the streets mainly because they wanted Xu Xin to use his mind-reading ability to check the people nearby to see how many of them had problems and what proportion of them had problems.
In order to attract the attention of the people in question, Xu Xin also wore a Mao hat with a lush world tree painted on it.
There is definitely something wrong with people who cannot read their minds.
And among those who can read minds, if someone sees the world tree image on his hat and has certain thoughts in their mind, that would also be a problem.
However, up to now, Xu Xin has not found any problems with the people around him.
This surprised him a little.
Xu Ying had said before that the underground world had been infiltrated. It seems that they haven't infiltrated too much.
"Oh, please don't go that way!"
Seeing Xu Xin and Xu Ying about to turn into an alley, the female reporter said in a panic: "That place has been blocked! Many people have disappeared there, don't go there!"
"So many people are missing?" Xu Ying stopped and turned to look at the female reporter. "When did it happen?"
"It's... it's what happened last night."
The female reporter seemed a little restrained when facing Xu Ying's questions.
"People living at the entrance of this alley noticed that many people walked into this alley one after another last night and never came out again. Someone walked in almost every minute."
"So, this morning, people living in the alley called the police because they were afraid that some evil forces might do something illegal here. As a result..."
"As a result, those people are missing." Xu Ying took over the conversation and then asked, "Have the identities of those missing people been found out?"
"We've found out." The female reporter nodded. "Basically, they are just some very ordinary people, including company employees, students, and the elderly. Now they have all disappeared and cannot be found. So this place has been blocked and no one is allowed to enter. This morning, their family members were making a fuss here for a long time, and they should have been dispersed now."
There is indeed almost no one at the entrance of the alley now.
Just now, Xu Ying pulled him to a place with fewer people. She probably wanted to use her teleportation ability to a place where no one could see her. She didn't expect that they would end up here.
Xu Xin looked into the alley and saw two fully armed men holding guns standing at the entrance of the alley.
But there seemed to be no one else.
“…I see. Brother, let’s go in and take a look.”
"good."
"Hey, you guys...!" The female reporter wanted to stop them.
At this time, the cameraman next to him urged, “Follow them, what are you standing there for! If those two people are really… are they afraid of disappearing?”
"Ah! Yes!"
A man and a woman immediately followed the two into the alley.
"It's very dangerous here now. No entry is allowed. Please go back."
Two soldiers guarding the entrance of the alley stopped them. At the same time, they both looked at Xu Xin and Xu Ying, who were wearing masks, with scrutiny.
Xu Ying didn't say anything, but took out an ID card from somewhere, opened it and showed it to the two soldiers.
Immediately, the two soldiers' expressions changed.
Became very excited.
But after all, he still had the qualities of a soldier and did not do anything inappropriate. He raised his hand as if he wanted to salute Xu Xin and Xu Ying, but when he saw the reporter and photographer behind him, he immediately stopped.
The two of them stepped aside: "Master... please."
Xu Ying nodded, then pulled Xu Xin into the alley.
As for the communication, the female reporter and the male cameraman were very surprised at first, and then became excited.
The two men immediately walked up to the two soldiers.
"Excuse me, the two people who just went in...!"
Before the female reporter finished her excited question, she saw one of the soldiers snatch the camera from the photographer.
Before the female reporter and the photographer could react, the soldier skillfully took out the card from the camera and returned the camera to the photographer.
"You...!" The female reporter immediately became anxious, "How could you do this!"
"Confidential matters must not be disclosed."
"We are the news department directly under the Yuan family. You have no right to do such things!"
The female reporter immediately said fiercely.
"Even the Yuan family would never agree to you leaking the images of this alley."
"Images of the alleys...? We don't have any..."
At this time, the cameraman pulled the female reporter's arm and said, "Forget it, let's go. They have guns in their hands! What happened to the Wei family during this period of time, who knows what the new head of the Wei family is like? What if..."
"I..." The female reporter was also a little scared. Finally, she could only stomp her feet. She was pulled out of the alley by the photographer and walked a few dozen meters to a hidden corner.
"Those two people, a man and a woman, are definitely of high status!"
The female reporter was a little excited. She turned her head to look at the statue standing not far away, then turned back and said, "We can't just give up like this. Those two soldiers must have done that because we took the photo of them. If I'm not mistaken, they might be..."
As she spoke, she looked at the photographer angrily: "How could you be so careless and let the other party take your camera away directly! And you didn't insist on getting the card back, you..."
"Hey, you can't just rely on your brilliance, you have to use your brain." The cameraman tapped his lens and smiled mysteriously, "The camera is my life. Do you think I would let someone take it away so easily?"
"… What do you mean?" The female reporter was stunned. "It was taken away. Or do you want to say that you did it on purpose?"
"Look what this is?" The cameraman opened his hand and a memory card appeared in his palm.
“This… This is…!”
The female reporter was so surprised that she wanted to scream, but the cameraman quickly covered her mouth.
"Keep your voice down!"
The cameraman whispered, then chuckled.
"Before entering the alley, I had already replaced the memory card. The card they just took away only contained some garbage images I had taken beforehand."
"Oh my god, you're so smart!" The female reporter suppressed her excitement and whispered, "Doesn't that mean that the scene we just filmed is all inside?"
"I've dealt with people with guns countless times, and I've experienced this kind of thing countless times." The cameraman was very proud. "Places like this where big news happens usually have people from the Wei family."
Then he said with some regret: "It's a pity that the scene of those two people taking out their IDs and being released was not filmed, otherwise it would have basically been confirmed. Now what we have in hand can only guide public opinion a little bit."
"What do you mean by guiding public opinion? This is called announcing the truth to the people! Don't forget, we are an official media! Although we didn't film that scene, we saw it with our own eyes, and we didn't make it up!"
The female reporter took one last look at the alley and said, "At least that woman is very likely our 'god'! Send the card back immediately, keep a backup, and publish a report quickly! I'll wait here to see if they come out again!"
"Great! Haha, now we have really discovered big news!"
…
"The two people outside just now have recognized us." Xu Xin leaned against the wall in the alley, took off his hat, and rubbed his stuffy hair.
"… I knew it." Xu Ying glanced outside and rolled her eyes. "Otherwise they wouldn't have kept pestering us. How could they keep chasing after one person for a street interview?"
“Hmm…?” Keke looked into the depths of the alley, “Hmm?”
"They also filmed us and planned to release it to the public. Will this be a problem?"
"Uh... Never mind. Let's make it public. The people in the underground world should know the truth." Xu Ying stroked her smooth chin and said, "It's a good opportunity for them to build momentum for us first. It will be easier for us to bring them to the surface later."
"That's good. Coco, is there anything inside?" Xu Xin said, touching Coco's little head.
Little Coco kept tilting his head and looking at the wall at the deepest part of the alley.
"Coco also discovered it." Xu Ying reached out and grabbed Coco's big tail and said with a smile.
“… Is there something unusual there? Could it be a transmission device?” Xu Xin guessed.
A dead end, many people disappeared in one night, the possibility of being teleported is very high.
"Of course it's not a teleportation device." Xu Ying walked towards the wall. "The teleportation device is the end point of the teleportation. If there is a teleportation device in this city, I would have discovered it long ago."
The two walked to the wall.
"Hmm...? Smell of blood?"
Xu Xin smelled an unusual smell in the air.
"Yes, it's the blood of mutant creatures."
"... Teleportation array?" Xu Xin looked at the wall.
The faint smell of blood seemed to be coming from this wall.
"The answer is correct, but there is no reward."
Xu Ying touched the wall and said, "This wall has been painted with teleportation patterns many times. I'm afraid someone has teleported away."
Then she turned to look at Xu Xin: "Brother, you were on the road just now, you shouldn't have found anyone suspicious, right?"
Xu Xin nodded, then thought for a moment: "Those people with problems were all teleported away from here?"
He thought of what the female reporter had just said.
Company employees, students, the elderly...
Are those the running dogs that have infiltrated this underground human society
Come to think of it, this has indeed permeated every aspect of this city.
"They are smart. They know that the leader here is dead. If they stay here, they will only fall into the trap, so they just left." Xu Ying patted the wall and said, "It saves us a lot of trouble. It seems that you only need to find some lackeys from those three families."
"By the way, can you tell me what happened to the Wei family?" Xu Xin crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Xu Ying. "You are always telling me riddles. I am very upset."
"It's mainly because it's hard to explain, and..."
A hint of sadness flashed across Xu Ying's eyes.
Then she shook her head and patted her cheek: "Well, let's go to the Wei family now! Ah, wait a moment, I'll contact someone first."
"who?"
"Let the new head of the Wei family, Wei Shishi, explain it to you."
