"If I guess correctly, you should be the relevant department that specializes in dealing with this kind of thing, right?"
Just when the policemen began to think about whether Chen Xiyao had gone crazy, Chen Xiyao suddenly spoke and asked such a question. After hearing this, the leading policeman took out his ID from his arms and took his photo.
And the page with the big steel seal was shown to her. After she clearly confirmed the details on it, she said:
"That's right, we are from the Yanguo Weird Countermeasures Bureau. This name should be unfamiliar to you. To use a more popular name, it is approaching science."
"Getting closer to science? Are you serious?" Chen Xiyao originally thought that the Weird Countermeasures Bureau sounded quite impressive, but in the end, she was getting closer to science?
The policeman did not respond to Chen Xiyao's question, but instead said:
"Do you know where that place is that you went to?"
"I heard it's called Infinite City." Chen Xiyao was not vague on this issue, but directly said the name she heard from Feng Xue. The policeman nodded slightly after hearing the words, and then explained:
"Weird stories have existed in this world since ancient times. In ancient times, people invented gods because of their fear of nature, and from the worship of these gods, the first batch of strange stories were born. But as time goes by, the knowledge that humans have mastered
The power is gradually increasing, the technology is slowly improving, and the fear of nature and gods is also decreasing day by day. This has led to fewer and fewer strange stories about the new life, and the power has become weaker and weaker. Especially more than 400 years ago, with the rise of Colombia
The Quetzalcoatl of Europe was killed by the Iberian colonists along with the Aztec civilization, marking the official end of the era of ghost stories and gods."
Chen Xiyao knew that this story could not end here, otherwise there would not be such an organization, but she did not open her mouth to praise, but quietly waited for the next chapter. Sure enough, after the police took a slight breath,
Then he said:
"But after the 1970s, Dongguo's self-confidence was over-inflated due to the economic bubble. After the bubble burst, the spirit and economy of Dongguo people suffered an irreparable blow. After that, there was even more
The so-called lost generation..."
"I know this. The story of Spirited Away is actually the story of a lost generation working hard to find themselves..." Chen Xiyao thought of the analysis of the movie she had watched in her heart, thinking silently, and at the same time once again put Feng Xue and
Bailong drew the equal sign.
The police obviously didn't know what Chen Xiyao was thinking, so they continued:
"Because the Eastern Kingdom has been a belief in elves since ancient times, believing that all things can become gods, and the spiritual emptiness of the lost generation and the confusion of the golden generation after falling from heights created a huge emptiness of faith, which led to a large number of people in the Eastern Kingdom.
The cult, along with it, the weird stories that had not been born for a long time, began to appear in the East Kingdom like a spurt. Although most of them were just slit girls, night monks and other weird stories that were at most the level of ordinary murderers, but they were also
There are some extremely powerful existences, such as the place you went to this time, the world called Infinite City."
When Chen Xiyao heard this, she unconsciously straightened her body and regained her energy from the relaxation after returning home.
Seeing her expression, the policeman didn't know what he was thinking. While paying attention to Chen Xiyao's mental state, he said cautiously:
"The predecessor of Infinite City was a large-scale high-tech community built in the capital of the Eastern Kingdom in the 1970s. You may not know it very well, but your parents' generation should not be unfamiliar with this matter. At that time, the Eastern Kingdom claimed to have transformed the world.
The most advanced technology is concentrated inside, which can become the blueprint for all communities in the future. This is indeed the case later. Many luxury communities now adopt the design concept of that community in terms of layout and design plan. However, as Dongguo at that time
This community, a reflection of national self-confidence, fell into disrepair as the economic bubble burst."
"It's rotten, it's rotten?!" Chen Xiyao opened her eyes in disbelief and repeated this unexpected and reasonable answer. Such a large community cannot be completed in one or two years, but why?
Speaking of which...it feels weird.
"Yes, it was unfinished. This building complex that almost embodies the national self-confidence of the Dongguo people at that time seemed to have disappeared overnight. Then, the community really disappeared, I mean on the physical level.
"
When the policeman said this, he was silent for a moment, as if waiting for Chen Xiyao to absorb the information. As expected, Chen Xiyao asked:
"So this community went to another world? It became Mugen City?"
"It is true that I became Infinite City, but I did not go to another world." When the policeman said this, his expression became serious——
"Infinite City turned into a super-large monster under the overall sluggish environment of the Eastern Kingdom. It disappeared into this world together with the glory of the Golden Age, but it has sneaked into the shadow of the world. This is not a description, because
From then on, Infinite City will occasionally generate channels connecting to reality.
"At first, these passages were concentrated in the East Kingdom, because there were a lot of ghost stories there, and everyone just thought they were missing ghost stories similar to the 'Shenyin'. But as time went by, these passages began to appear all over the world, almost every time
When the passage is opened, an ordinary person will disappear, but what really makes all countries vigilant is that Infinite City is producing strange stories."
"Can the weird story be produced?" Chen Xiyao vaguely noticed something and asked immediately. The police immediately gave a positive answer:
"Yes. Human thoughts have weight. When countless thoughts gather, kaidan will be produced. And those things living in Infinite City will torture living people to get the fear they want, thereby turning themselves into kaidan.
, and when these ghost stories grow to a certain extent, they will use those doors to invade reality and gain more power through large-scale killings.
"In the past thirty years, there have been more and more cases like this, and the methods of residents in Infinite City have become more and more cruel. Especially in the past ten years, almost everyone who has come back from there by chance has suffered unimaginable consequences.
Torture, very few people can communicate normally, and those who can barely communicate have extremely limited information.
"This is the first time in ten years that a returnee like you is intact and has a relatively normal mental state. So we hope to learn from you what the world is like over there?"
The policeman's tone suddenly became serious and serious, making Chen Xiyao even involuntarily want to stand at attention and salute.
She took a deep breath, and many of her experiences in Infinite City began to fit in with the information the police told her. Many of Feng Xue's strange behaviors seemed to have corresponding answers.
