She couldn't help but pull Jian Wugui's sleeve.
The latter glanced at her without any explanation.
He turned to look in the other direction and saw several people standing there wearing white suits with blue wavy patterns on their cuffs and collars——
This is the work clothes of Xinhai Group.
"I didn't expect that even Xinhai Group would send people here. It seems that there are quite a few people interested in this restricted area..."
He looked in another direction. Unlike the others who were in small groups, there was only a handsome bald man wearing cassock standing there. He looked like a monk.
As if aware of his gaze, the bald man turned his head and nodded to the people here.
"Yellow Spring."
Jian Wugui also nodded and murmured, "Is this the Seventh Yama..."
…
Time moves back slightly.
At eight o'clock this morning, a meeting was held in City No. 1 - it was more of a simple meeting than a meeting.
There were very few people present, only Yang Wuwei, the representative of the parliament this time, three members of Dongyang City, and Xu Han, one of the heads of the No. 1 City Anti-Prohibition Bureau.
"I'm sorry, Councilor Yang, everyone else has important matters to attend to, so we are the only ones receiving you for the time being."
A congressman smiled at Yang Buwei on the sofa opposite.
Yang Buwei casually observed the room and said with the same cheerful smile: "It's okay, there is no need to receive guests, just mind your own business. And I also know that managing such a large city must be very busy."
He looked at the four people opposite him calmly.
The three congressmen who appeared today are not the three from last night. I don’t know if this is the arrangement of the chamber, or if the three guys didn’t want to come last night...
But he didn't care about this problem, but asked: "I heard that you have a meeting today, I won't disturb you here, right?"
The congressman smiled and said: "Of course not, we just want to ask Councilor Yang to help make suggestions."
As he said that, he seemed to suddenly remember something, pointed at the short-haired woman beside him, and introduced: "I forgot to introduce you, this is Xu Han, the head of our Anti-Prohibition Bureau."
"This is Congressman Yang from the parliament."
Xu Han stood up from the sofa, bowed slightly and said, "Hello, Congressman Yang."
"Hello." Yang Buwei smiled and said tentatively, "There is a ban removal bureau here. It seems that the matter discussed today is related to the restricted area?"
"Yeah, someday it won't be."
One congressman sighed, "I have to worry about these restricted areas every day. It would be great if the restricted areas disappeared soon, so I might still be lying at home sleeping at this time."
"That's not necessarily true. The disappearance of the restricted area does not mean that we don't have to work. We might not know where we are at that time." Yang Buwei said half-jokingly.
"Hahaha, that's true. I have to thank the restricted area for this..."
The congressman laughed, then his face gradually turned serious, and he changed the topic and said, "Let's get to the point quickly."
He looked at Xu Han and said, "Sir Xu, please tell me."
"Okay." Xu Han nodded slightly and said straight to the point, "The preliminary investigation results of Pingping Paradise have come out."
Perhaps because she was worried that Yang Buwei didn't know what Pingping Paradise was, she explained: "Pingping Paradise is one of the restricted areas that has been expanding recently. The stone monument will expand outward by about one meter every day, and the tunnel at the entrance will be extended accordingly.
This may also mean that the range of activities of forbidden organisms will expand."
"Expanded restricted area..."
Yang Buwei pondered, "I've heard about the restricted area in Pingping Paradise. It's a C-level restricted area, and I also know some information. What, are there any other changes to this restricted area?"
"Yes, as far as we know, the rules of Equality Paradise have indeed changed."
Xu Han said solemnly, "Its original rule was that you could not fall to the ground in the paradise, otherwise you would be split in two and die. But now... the rules of Equality Paradise have become just like its name."
"Oh?" Yang Buwei raised his eyebrows.
"In the name of 'equality', everyone is equal in the current paradise. The abilities of extraordinary people will be banned, and their physical fitness will be reduced to the level of ordinary people."
After a pause, Xu Han continued, "Yes, in today's paradise of equality, everyone is the same, and no one can surpass anyone else."
Yang Buwei's expression changed slightly. He had never heard of such a rule.
"Is there an upper limit to this kind of 'ban'?" he asked quickly.
"This is not clear yet. Out of caution, we have not sent B-level extraordinary people in yet, but what is certain is that all extraordinary people below C-level will be banned."
"Well, it's a good thing to be cautious... What about the danger factors? What are the danger factors in Equality Paradise?"
The sources of danger in restricted areas generally fall into two categories: rule constraints and dangerous factors, which may not necessarily exist at the same time. The latter mostly refers to organisms in the restricted area.
"It's hard to be sure. Our information mainly comes from a video. If Congressman Yang is interested, you can take a look for yourself."
Xu Han turned on the computer and played a three-dimensional video on the display screen.
She said: "It is worth noting that all the extraordinary powers in Equality Paradise seem to have been blocked, even the power of the restricted area itself, so the signal of Equality Paradise has not been interfered with. This is a real-time video transmitted to the cloud
, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to see this video at all.”
"The photographer was a death row inmate and is now dead."
Yang Buwei stared at the image.
At the beginning of the video, the screen shook slightly, and then the face of the photographer flashed out. This was the death row prisoner, and then it entered darkness.
Not long after, the sound of a train roaring came from the video, and a train stopped in the camera lens.
The photographer...or rather the death row inmate got on the train with a miniature camera, and the entire video can be said to be his first-person perspective.
"If you want to enter Pingping Paradise, you must take this train, otherwise you will just get lost in the tunnel." Seeing that Yang Buwei was fascinated, Xu Han explained.
Yang Buwei didn't say anything, he already knew this.
The carriage looked very old, very similar to old-fashioned trains that had been eliminated for a long time. The infrastructure was relatively complete, but many seats were stained with dried blood, and the floor was also very messy.
The doors connecting the carriages were all closed, so it was unclear how many carriages there were and what was going on in the other carriages.
The camera shot lower and then stopped. It should be that the death row prisoner found a seat and sat down, waiting for the train to stop.
"This train has always been used as a buffer zone to enter Pingding Paradise. Logically speaking, it should be relatively safe and there should be no blood... Therefore, we judge that not only Pingding Paradise, but also this train has undergone some changes."
Yang Buwei nodded and continued reading.
Perhaps because the prisoners on death row were lucky, there were no unusual changes on the train. The train soon stopped and the door opened.
The prisoner on death row got out of the car. There were lights flashing in the darkness not far away, as if a colorful road was paved in the darkness, leading him towards the building.
Although there was some distance, everyone could still see that it was a rather grand amusement park.
The deep darkness, colorful lights, and the empty amusement park that was in operation filled everyone with a strange fear.
The condemned prisoner stood there for a long time, seemingly hesitating for a long time, before walking along the colorful road to Equality Paradise.
And as he got closer, everything in the amusement park gradually became clearer.
At the entrance is a huge iron door, the door lock has long been rusted and is slightly open. There is a single passage next to it, and behind the passage stands a 'person' wearing a huge doll suit.
It was a huge orange cat doll with a cute shape. From a distance, it looked round and fat, which looked very cute. However, when I got closer, I realized that this was not the case.
The doll's clothes were dirty and had obviously not been washed for a long time. The eyes on the cat's head were made of huge buttons, and one of them was missing for some reason.
A big red dot was painted on the missing eye socket with a red paintbrush, but for some reason, it was drawn further down, all the way to the cheek. It looked like blood and tears, emitting a faint light, which looked a bit weird.
The mouth is drawn with an exaggerated animated grin, showing white teeth, making it look very happy, but it seems a bit exaggerated, with the corners of the mouth extending all the way to the base of the ears, which is absurd and weird.
Although I don’t know what the doll is wearing, the doll is obviously alive. After turning its head sluggishly, it just looks in the direction of the camera, as if it is staring at the people outside the camera.
Everyone knew that the doll was actually looking at the death row prisoner, but they still felt inexplicably cold in their hearts. It had nothing to do with fear, it was like an instinct.
After discovering the prisoner on death row, the doll's movements suddenly became sharper, but it did not take action. Instead, it bowed in a decent manner and opened its hands as if to invite him in.
The prisoner on death row hesitated for a moment and walked into the amusement park through the gate.
The iron door slammed shut.
"Equality Paradise welcomes you."
The doll swayed its chubby body excitedly, and emitted a strange electronic synthesized sound from its mouth, "You have put in the coin. I wish you a happy future."
Hearing this, Yang Buwei, who was outside the camera, looked at Xu Han and asked curiously: "What does 'coin' mean?"
