Enforcer's Handbook

On January 21, 2141, Mr. Benjamin Abele was laid to rest in District One.

This is another important victory of the Department of Homeland Security's anti-terrorism operation, which severely dealt a blow to the arrogance of the "outside" terrorist forces. The commander of the operation, Mr. Vince Mott, received the third-level Gold Medal of Peace awarded by the Senate. Medal in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the coalition government's counter-terrorism cause.

But there are also rumors that the arrest of Benjamin Abele that day was full of weird atmosphere.

According to some insiders who asked not to be named, Benjamin died suddenly and violently.

His chest was pierced by an unknown attack, and he could see the scenery on the other side straight.

When people recovered from the trance, Benjamin had fallen into a pool of blood.

Homeland Security agents arrived later, and at least according to those who experienced the incident that day, all they did was recover the bodies.

Immediately afterwards that evening, Benjamin Abele was identified by the Council as the number one terrorist, and a series of recent incidents were related to him.

These questions have always troubled Vince Mott's heart.

When he was awarded the medal, there was no joy or pride in his heart, only endless doubts.

He checked the video of the prosthetic hospital that day countless times, trying to restore the scene at that time, trying to piece together the truth that had been buried by history. However, what was left to him were only the puzzling fragments.

The Department of Homeland Security could not find any suspicious characters in the video. They only found Benjamin Abele standing there with his eyes wide open, as if he had seen an extremely terrifying scene. It was difficult for them to imagine what kind of scene could make him A terrorist looks like this.

Then, an invisible force penetrated his chest.

"call--"

Vince Mott, who was in the staff room, turned off the video he had watched countless times and felt briefly in a trance.

His boss's words came to his mind.

Who killed Benjamin Abele and why he died are not important. What is important is that Benjamin was an out-and-out terrorist who intended to subvert the coalition government, and the Department of Homeland Security had killed the terrorist on the spot. Defending the safety of the country and the residents of District 1 is a definite fact.

For this reason, he deserves to be awarded the Gold Medal of Peace, Third Class.

As a specially appointed teacher, Vince Mott has an independent office at Daystar College. As long as he looks up, he can see the medal hanging on the wall.

This medal, which originally symbolized honor and contribution, was full of irony.

If he had any regrets about his position in the Department of Homeland Security, it was probably that he was unable to investigate clearly what happened back then until he retired. His intuition told him that this matter was far from as simple as it seemed.

But……

More than 20 years have passed, and the dust of history has settled. He has also changed from a front-line commander to a "Danger Prevention" teacher who was re-employed from retirement.

There were still two classes in the morning, and Vince Mott reminded himself that he should focus on the classes for a while. Among the freshmen of this class, there are several children who like to laugh and laugh, which is a headache. When he thinks of those who are involved in anti-terrorism operations, He couldn't help but have a straight face and teach them a lesson about the sacrificed peacekeepers.

Perhaps one day, the memory of being taught a lesson in class will keep them alert and prevent them from losing their lives on the front line.

Vince Mott picked up the tablet and walked out of the office.

He is a person with an extremely regular life. He always likes to leave the faculty office at 7:15 in the morning and walk around the campus, watching the students rushing to the classroom, with laughter or distress on their faces. Make Vince Mott feel like he is truly living in this era.

Occasionally he would meet the cleaner when he went downstairs, an old lady in her 60s.

His children all work in the unified military industry, and he found a job for her at Daystar through connections. If he followed his past habits, he would definitely stop and chat with the old lady.

But today, Vince Mott stopped.

He stood behind the cleaner and stared at him.

The cleaner was so focused on her work that she didn't notice Vince Mott who stopped and was bending over to adjust the code of the sweeping robot.

The responsibilities of cleaners have also changed greatly in 2167. They no longer need to do everything themselves, but only need to be proficient in the use of various cleaning robots to ensure that they can always operate normally.

"What happened to your arm?"

After a long time, Vince Mott finally asked.

He saw that the cleaner's originally waxy skin turned purple, and the blood vessels under the skin were clearly visible. This looked like a sign of some kind of disease, but the cleaner turned a blind eye to it.

"Oh, it's Teacher Vince, arm? What do you think happened to my arm?"

The cleaner's expression didn't seem to be fake. After hearing Vince Mott's question, she raised her arm and observed it carefully for a while. Finally, she moved her wrist in a serious manner. She didn't know why Vince Mott suddenly acted like this. asked, but explained, "My arm is fine, it's always been like this."

No, this is a lie.

The change occurred today. Vince Mott clearly remembered that he had greeted the other party yesterday, and there was nothing unusual about her body at that time.

The cleaner's answer confused him even more.

Could it be that it’s not just the cleaner’s arm that’s wrong, but also her eyes or her cognitive system?

Before he could continue, the sight he noticed from the corner of his eye made Vince Mott realize the seriousness of the problem.

While the two were talking, three students hurriedly passed by the staff building. Vince Mott clearly noticed that the same symptoms appeared on their wrists. The purple color spread to the cuffs, but because they were long-sleeved, School uniform, he couldn't tell for a while whether the symptoms had spread to the point of cooperation.

What's even weirder is that the three students, like the cleaners, didn't notice any changes in their bodies.

The incident more than twenty years ago was caused by a strange disease among psychics. The mystery left behind at that time plagued his heart like a nightmare. But now, another symptom that he had never seen before appeared.

…

the other side.

After a brief trance, Song Lan and others returned to a familiar place.

They stayed in a strange era for a long time, but the time dimension of "now" was only a snap. The night passed and dawn came. Lu Xiang mobilized the "Sea of ​​Souls" to understand what they had done in the past few days. The butterfly effect.

In Song Lan's words, Mr. Benjamin Abele failed to catch the train to the new generation, and his life stayed in 2141 forever.

Therefore, the man who broke into the prison in this time dimension and was holding the "Holy Sword" also disappeared.

Benjamin is an important character to history.

He founded the Spirit Watcher and created the vigorous "Witch Hunting Movement". Looking at the information revealed in the "Sea of ​​Souls", Lu Xiang suddenly remembered a long-standing academic debate.

At least on this issue, the battle between the heroic view of history and the people’s view of history has a clear outcome.

The "Witch Hunting Movement" did not end with Benjamin's era. Three months after his death, the wake was established. The new founder inherited his legacy, and finally set off a war against psychics. Movement of party unity against dissenters.

The difference is that not long after the emergence of the "Witch Hunting Movement", an organization appeared in the "outside" with the mission of rescuing psychics. It was rumored that the leader of the organization was a woman, who was called a "nun" within the organization. After all, the government's intelligence agencies were unable to find any specific information about this mysterious woman.

This news made Qi He's hanging heart finally fall to the ground.

Qi Yun survived and became the leader of the psychic organization according to the guidance they left.

It's an amazing feeling.

More than twenty years is a long span, but it passes in a blink of an eye. Even the accumulated fatigue and embarrassment are always brought back here.

And at the end of that trip, they witnessed with their own eyes the scene of being hated and hunted by the entire world.

Everything you experience will become a murder weapon. Even a leaf or a drop of rain may take your life in an unexpected way. That is far from the relaxed situation described by Song Lan. It is closer to it. The difference between the horror films produced by Kolo Films in the past years and featured the theme of death and accidents is that in reality, misfortune strikes much more frequently, with an average of more than three attacks occurring within a minute.

This is the price of killing Benjamin.

It was hard for Qi He to imagine how they would have spent that dangerous period without Song Lan, an existence that completely exceeded their cognition.

The look of such ease made him wonder if the other party had done many similar behaviors before.

Another thing that puzzled him, but he didn't have time to ask, was the reason why Song Lan took action against Benjamin.

"There's something wrong over there at the dump."

Lu Xiang broke the silence and suppressed Qi He's question.

This seemed to be another unexpected change caused by the butterfly effect. "Medale said that after Gefu woke up, his whole body turned green."

"What does it mean to turn green?"

Song Lan fell into confusion.

"The whole person turned blue-purple and became a blue Kufu."

Lu Xiang also raised the same question to Madele and received this answer, "Ge Fu claimed that he did not feel any discomfort in his body. He also said that people are originally blue. He also said that Madele and Dr. Bai Zhu have a little brain. question."

Symptoms can cause a person to behave aggressively.

This is the first conclusion that Madele came to. If it were normal, the husband at the bottom of the food chain in the garbage dump would not dare to say that they have brain problems in front of them. In order to prevent the spread of the disease, they have isolated the husband. got up.

According to Medel, under the persuasion of her and Baizhu, Gefu finally accepted the setting that "people are not originally blue", but he adopted a passive strike attitude of "Yes, what you said is right".

After being isolated, Gefu has been playing with his newly developed hornworm device. Apart from the change of color, there seems to be no significant difference from usual.

Madele could tell that Ge Fu regarded this as a prank game in his boring life, and he became the target of Madele and Baizhu's pranks today.

When suddenly one day, your friends suddenly tell you 1+1=3, and you can't refute them, you can only adopt the attitude of "Ah, yes, yes, yes".

"Medale wants to ask if you have any idea about this?"

If possible, they still hope to solve the problem of Xiaofu's discoloration as soon as possible.

They believe that a bluish-purple complexion is very unhealthy and gives the impression that someone is poisoned and will die soon.

Overall, my husband is a good colleague. They really don't want a black-haired person to send someone with hair loss.

"...Why do you think I will turn people blue?"

Faced with the torture of everyone's soul, Song Lan was confused. What kind of image did he usually have in the eyes of these people?

"Because among the levels that can do this kind of thing, you are the one most likely to actually do this kind of behavior."

Lu Xiang said seriously that she could think of many abilities that could change a person's color and change their cognition, but there were only a handful of psychics in this world who were really idle and had nothing to do.

"It's a nutritional injection."

Qi He suddenly spoke to clear Song Lan's suspicion. After a brief trance, some strange information appeared in the depths of his mind, "They mixed something into the nutritional injections sold by Yungang Biopharmaceuticals." … Is it possible to bring something back to this era in the practice of your abilities?”

The year 2141 was the day when strange diseases among psychics broke out. Many people believed that an infectious disease caused by psychics was spreading rapidly among the population.

The first time they returned to 2167, a strange disease caused by nutritional injections appeared.

Qi He vaguely "recalled" that he had used his change of authority to investigate Yungang Biopharmaceuticals, but in the end he ended up with no results.

When nutritional injections became popular, many people claimed that this was a conspiracy of the company. Too low prices completely replaced food. Even if you are a penniless beggar, the injection distribution office of Yungang Biopharmaceuticals will considerately provide you with food. Provide you with supplies for your basic life.

Poverty finally defeated warnings and conspiracy theories, and the popularization of nutritional injections became a national movement even when the company was almost losing money.

Qi He understands how the company operates, and he knows even more clearly that Yungang Biopharmaceuticals will never act out of kindness.

But no one knows what ingredients Yungang Biopharmaceuticals adds to its nutritional injections.

Everyone who ever tried to investigate the matter ended up mysteriously disappearing.

What worries Qi He even more is that this time travel seems to have triggered some kind of switch. But when the switch is activated, an unprecedented change occurs.

Lu Xiang's next words confirmed his guess, "Medale said that Gefu had a third eye."

First, his whole body turned purple, and now he has a third eye. This is obviously a sign of mutation.

"Is there anything unusual about him?"

"Geff said to them, 'Crazy, people have three eyes'."

Small theater its three hundred and fifty:

A certain day of a certain year, a certain day, a Tuesday, early morning

Lu Xiang discovered that Song Lan was actually a theoretical master, but like all theoretical masters, he always stopped at talking on paper and neglected practice.

This is bad.

When Daystar was in school, the teacher emphasized to them more than once the seriousness of the lack of practical training.

"In the worst case scenario, you could die."

When the first ray of light shone into the house in the morning, Lu Xiang sat cross-legged on the bed and looked at each other with Song Lan.

Song Lan asked cautiously, "Lao Lu, I want to confirm first that we are talking about love, right?"

"Um."

"What serious situation could lead to death?"

"Have you ever heard of such a story?"

Lu Xiang looked serious and said seriously, "A long time ago, there was such a person. He always called his wife Lao Lu. Later, he died."

"...Why do I feel that you have included personal information in this story?"

"I just brought in private goods."

Lu Xiang admitted frankly, "I have already said that I don't like the name Lao Lu."

"So, wife?"

Song Lan called out tentatively. After a long period of experience, he could now say this disgusting name without a beat of heart.

"Very good, you're ready."

Lu Xiang nodded with satisfaction, "Today is the first lesson of practical theory."

"Wait a minute, what is a practical theory?"

Lu Xiang ignored his inquiry and continued, "The theory you proposed yesterday has many loopholes that lack practicality, so today's practical training must be based on reality. So, the theme of the first practical lesson is kissing."
