Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Contact
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yuanqing tried to keep his tone calm:
"Officer Li, I'm Zhang Yuanqing."
"..... It's you." The other party laughed, "What do you want to see me for in the middle of the night?"
Zhang Yuanqing said in a deep voice: "I have a clue to report. In fact, Lei Yibing sent me a card before he disappeared."
"Why didn't you tell me before?"
There was no surprise in Li Dongze's tone.
This... Zhang Yuanqing hesitated slightly and told the other party all his guesses about the missing brother Bing's case.
There was silence for a long time, and then laughed:
"You are good at adding drama to yourself."
Guan Ya was right. Zhang Yuanqing was actually a very lonely person. A normal college student who was cheerful, optimistic and positive would not be so wary. .
"Sorry..."
Zhang Yuanqing was a little embarrassed and immediately changed the subject, no, got to the point:
"I encountered some strange and incomprehensible things tonight. Well, can you understand what I mean?"
"So it seems that you have successfully walked out of the spiritual realm." Li Dongze's tone was a little relieved.
Yes, I just walked out and almost died in it... Zhang Yuanqing felt relieved when he heard such an answer.
The other party really knew the spiritual realm.
Li Dongze said: "College student, congratulations on becoming a spiritual realm walker. This is the title of people like us. I am also a spiritual realm walker. The difference is that I am an official one and you are wild."
Spiritual realm walker... Zhang Yuanqing savored this sentence and asked:
"What is the spiritual realm?"
He had too many questions to seek answers, so he could only start from the most basic questions.
"I can't tell you now. If you want to know about the spiritual realm, you have to make a choice." Li Dongze said in a deep voice:
"The official attitude towards the spiritual realm is divided into two types. One is to absorb and cultivate, and the other is to supervise and control. The former means joining us and becoming a member of the official spiritual realm practitioners.
"The latter is to be a casual cultivator. You only need to register with us and promise not to use your ability to violate the law, and we will not care. Of course, you can't get any help from the official. "
Zhang Yuanqing said without hesitation: "I am willing to join the organization and shed blood for the country and the people."
Li Dongze smiled and said: "You are worthy of being born in a family of security guards. You are very conscious."
Zhang Yuanqing couldn't tell whether the other party was mocking or praising for a while.
"Then go to bed early. I'll pick you up at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Li Dongze said.
Ah? Not now? Zhang Yuanqing hesitated: "Tomorrow?"
"Otherwise, what time is it now? If you want to shed blood for the organization, you have to wait until the organization goes to work. "
You don't want to tell me over the phone, are you afraid that I will regret it and get the information for free? So you have to wait until tomorrow to meet offline... Zhang Yuanqing could only helplessly say: "Okay. "
After hanging up the phone, he looked at his phone. The time showed 11 o'clock in the evening. The passage of time in the spirit realm was the same as that in the outside world.
After successfully contacting the official organization, Zhang Yuanqing felt relieved. At this time, the fatigue brought by struggling to survive in the spirit realm surged.
He lay on the bed, set the alarm clock, his eyelids became heavier, and he fell into a deep sleep.
......
The next morning, at 7:15, Zhang Yuanqing was awakened by the alarm clock. He almost had a cardiac arrest and died on the spot.
While turning off the alarm clock, he got out of bed yawning.
The quality of sleep last night was not ideal. I had several nightmares, each of which was related to ghosts and woke me up several times.
In the living room, my grandfather sat on the sofa watching the news. He had sparse silver hair, a tall figure, and a wrinkled face. He was serious and stern.
My grandmother was making breakfast in the kitchen. At the long dining table, my aunt squatted on a chair playing with her mobile phone, puffing her cheeks, like a cute hamster.
"So early?"
The aunt looked at her listless nephew and groaned, "You look like you've indulged yourself too much. Did you do something bad last night? I'm going to check your trash can."
In normal times, Zhang Yuanqing would have said sarcastically, "Go find something to eat?"
But now he was thinking about the spiritual realm and the meeting with the official organization, and he was in no mood to argue with his aunt.
He sat down listlessly next to the woman, waiting for dinner with his eyes blank.
Soon, grandma came out with hot rice porridge, fried dough sticks, boiled eggs, and a basket of meat buns.
Zhang Yuanqing took a sip of the hot porridge to moisten his throat, looked at his grandfather, and asked tentatively:
"Grandpa, I remember that when the construction team of the Sheling Tunnel disappeared, the Public Security Bureau organized a search team to look for you, and you were in it at the time."
Grandpa said "hmm" and said with some doubt, "It's all old news. Why are you asking this? "
"I saw this story online again yesterday. Do you know how the worker who was found is doing now?"
Grandpa frowned and said, "I forgot. It happened so long ago that I can't remember."
"Didn't he disappear again?" Grandma next to him interrupted and joined the discussion with interest, "And it was a strange disappearance. This incident caused panic in the police force at that time. It was not until the leaders of the police station came down to appease the situation that it was considered over."
"Is this true?" Grandpa did not admit it.
"Old Chen, are you old and have Alzheimer's disease? You told me this in person." Grandma argued.
…..Grandpa lowered his head and drank the porridge: "You should believe in science and don't be keen on these superstitions. The older you get, the more gossipy you are. "
After finding it, it disappeared again... Zhang Yuanqing drank a mouthful of porridge in a somewhat depressed mood.
It was obvious that the survivor entered the spiritual realm again after 36 hours, and this time, he did not come out alive.
He was right in his prediction. The mortality rate of the mountain temple was extremely high, and the second main task was very, very dangerous.
If you want to survive, relying on the authorities is the most correct decision.
After breakfast and a simple wash, Zhang Yuanqing took the elevator downstairs and waited at the gate of the community for more than ten minutes.
A black commercial vehicle slowly stopped, and the electric door slid open automatically. Li Dongze sat on the white leather sofa, leaning on a cane and putting his legs together.
Dressed the same as yesterday, black suit, black vest, white shirt, oily hair neatly combed back, and two delicate mustaches.
"Get in the car, college student."
Li Dongze smiled.
"Okay, investigator. "Zhang Yuanqing smiled back.
After he got in the car, the black business car merged into the traffic and drove slowly on the street in the early morning.
Li Dongze opened the car refrigerator and asked, "What do you want to drink?"
"Coke!"
"Then you can only go to the supermarket to buy it yourself later." Li Dongze poured himself a glass of whiskey, put an ice ball in it, held the wine, leaned back in the chair, and said leisurely:
"I will take you to complete the entry procedures and give you basic training. First of all, let me introduce myself. I am Li Dongze, a level 3 spiritual realm walker, the Songhai branch of the Five Elements Alliance, the second squad leader of Kangyang District, and my occupation is a scout. "
Scout? In addition to the Night Wanderer, are there other professions? Zhang Yuanqing put on an attitude of listening carefully.
Although he was confused, he did not interrupt.
As a person who is good at socializing, Zhang Yuanqing knows that it is impolite to interrupt others casually, and he will not let himself be deducted points for these trivial matters.
Li Dongze took a sip of wine and said: "Let me tell you first, what is the spiritual realm!"
Zhang Yuanqing immediately perked up.
