Every day is one step closer to reality

What Xiao Yi found was similar to the news Xiao Geng brought.

It was indeed pressure, or an order, from a higher level.

In fact, if you think about it, the only way to unify the mainstream media in N City is through high-level pressure.

Feng Yi was not so narcissistic yet that he felt that these were all for him.

Just like Xiao Geng said, the wings of butterflies have begun to flap. In this sensitive period, in order to promote follow-up plans, any related incidents that trigger public opinion need to be handled with a firm attitude.

Think back to the guesses made by the butler.

Once the butterfly's wings begin to flap, the invitation begins.

What decision should I make?

In fact, Feng Yi already had the answer in his heart.

Of course, the public discussion on this matter is far from over, and there are various exaggerated and outrageous speculations about Feng Yi one after another. I can't even refute the rumors.

This matter really cannot be explained clearly, and for this reason, various refutations and clarifications seem to have no obvious effect.

There are some pots that Feng Yi must bear.

This matter can only be explained clearly when the Butterfly Project is truly exposed.

However, when that day comes, the label on Feng Yi may be more complicated.

Because of the incident involving the man in the wolfskin coat, the originally planned return time was postponed for another two days.

Except for going to the Federal Security Bureau to cooperate with some investigations, Feng Yi stayed in the hotel the rest of the time and did not go out.

There are many reporters outside and it is easy to get blocked when going out.

On this day, Feng Yi had just returned to the hotel from the UN Security Bureau. It was getting late and he was going to have dinner when he met Uncle Bao who was about to leave.

Uncle Bao frowned when he saw Feng Yi.

As soon as he looked at Feng Yi, he thought of the strange behavior of the mainstream media in N City in the past two days.

There are people on the Internet who are bragging and praising that the N City media has finally been upright.

Uncle Bao doesn’t believe it!

This is so funny. When did the media in N City become so upright? !

Looking at their reports and the rigor of their wording, I would have thought they were watching some international political news! Even if it is international news, there will be ridicule and personal indoctrination from different angles, and experts will be leveraged when necessary.

Uncle Bao has been criticized many times by the media in N City. He is very aware of the urinal nature of these people. It's all about business, it's about money, and it's not just about money.

But regarding Feng Yi's incident this time, it's amazing that they have such a unified voice.

When he saw the news report, his first reaction was: Did the housekeeper take action?

Then he denied it.

Even if the housekeeper takes action, it won't reach this level.

He is quite powerful and mysterious, but he will not affect this level so quickly.

I don’t know the reason, I can’t figure it out.

When he failed to receive reliable information, even Uncle Bao felt that the outrageous speculations on the Internet seemed to make sense. Coupled with the existing filter...

Is this the authentic Feng family?

awesome!

"Uncle Bao." Feng Yi came over and said hello.

"Are you eating now?" Uncle Bao looked very kind.

"Just came back from the N City Branch of the Joint Security Bureau. Uncle Bao, why did you come to the hotel?" Feng Yi said.

"Come to meet a friend." Uncle Bao said.

Feng Yi didn't ask any further questions. He looked at the people following Uncle Bao.

When I went to have dinner with Uncle Bao that day, I saw a few people with abnormal emotional information. For some unknown reason, they were not with Uncle Bao today.

Although Uncle Bao and the people around him controlled their facial expressions very well, judging from the real emotional information, their inner emotions were very strong at this time, both positive and negative.

These emotions are not directed at Feng Yi.

When Xiao Yi checked the media, he also checked some things about Uncle Bao. Feng Yi knew that Uncle Bao's company seemed to be unstable recently.

But Uncle Bao wouldn't tell him those things, and Feng Yi wouldn't say much either.

Uncle Bao saw Feng Yi today and was worried about him again.

“Be safe when traveling!”

"I know. I'm just staying in the hotel and not going anywhere else. I will go back to Yangcheng after I finish handling the matters with the Joint Security Bureau." Feng Yi said.

"That's good! If you go out, be sure to bring more people with you. There are too many people paying attention to you in N City recently."

Although Uncle Bao really wanted to chat with Feng Yi for a while, why did the mainstream media have such an attitude?

But there is really no time now. Just now, the subordinate gave Uncle Bao another gesture to remind him of the time.

"I have an important meeting later, to meet an old friend. Let's talk when we have time!" Uncle Bao said.

"Well, Uncle Bao, go ahead and get busy."

Feng Yi paused, looked at Uncle Bao's strong emotional messages, and said:

"Uncle Bao, please pay attention to your safety. Be more careful."

Hearing Feng Yi's words, Uncle Bao couldn't help but smile, and the boy even warned him in turn!

"Uncle Bao, I understand, don't worry."

Unexpectedly, Uncle Bao raised his hand and pulled out the large gold chain he was wearing, letting Feng Yi see a copper coin hanging on the gold chain. As if joking, with a more comforting tone:

"It'll protect me."

This copper coin belongs to Uncle Bao's own zodiac coin. He once wore it for his daughter. Later, he went to Yangcheng to attend the ancestral ceremony there. When he met Feng Yi, Feng Yi gave his daughter a new zodiac coin. daughter.

Later, Uncle Bao put back his own zodiac sign.

Feng Yi glanced at the zodiac coin and said, "It doesn't have that function." Don't be overly superstitious!

"I know. But, for me, this is a belief." Uncle Bao stuffed the copper coin pendant back into his collar.

Smiling and waving to Feng Yi, he walked towards the car parked not far away.

After sitting in the car, Uncle Bao's smile disappeared completely, his face darkened, and the car was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

"Let's go."

Several black cars left the hotel, drove past the bustling high-rise buildings, and turned into a certain street.

There are no tall buildings here. The buildings on both sides of the street are quite old. There are shops selling everything, neon lights are flashing, and the excitement at night has just begun.

Continuing forward, there is an alley near the end of the street.

There is no conspicuous signboard outside, but usually at this time, there will be many customers' vehicles parked here. It's pretty empty tonight.

A group of cars drove over and stopped in the open space.

Someone was already waiting at the entrance of the alley. When they saw the person coming, they hurried over and whispered: "Brother Bao, he is indeed the only one in there."

"Well, the others stay here, Ryan comes with me."

"Brother Bao, I really don't want anyone to follow you."

Brother Bao waved his hand and walked inside.

Walking into the alley and continuing inside, the lights are not bright and it is slightly dark.

Open a door and go down the narrow stairs.

There is a bar here.

But today, for this meeting, it is not open to the public.

Brother Bao looked at the wall of the stairs.

There are still graffiti on the walls from more than 20 years ago, some painted by him and his old friends, and some painted by younger children.

Things are different and people are different.

Withdrawing his gaze, he opened the door in front and walked in.

There were no other guests today, and the lighting seemed to lack some mood.

There was already a man sitting at the bar. Hearing the noise, he picked up a bottle of whiskey and poured two glasses.

The subordinate Ryan who followed over, at Brother Bao's signal, hesitated, stood outside the door, and closed the door.

Inside the door, there were only two long-time friends.

Outside the alley, more old-fashioned neon lights lit up, and the streets that were not eye-catching during the day became more colorful at night.

People with rich nightlife are talking, laughing and noisy.

The people guarding the alley looked at the street.

When I was a kid, the houses here looked very old. Looking at it now, it still looks the same.

Over the past twenty years, it seems that not much has changed here.

Alas, I don’t know what Brother Bao is talking about inside...

boom!

A huge explosion suddenly sounded in the alley.

The people guarding the alley were rushed to the ground.

Ignoring wiping the blood on his forehead, he looked into the alley in shock.

The old buildings are crumbling.

Speakeasy.

All the lights in the room went out, it was a complete mess.

Brother Bao was choked by dust and coughed.

I noticed something was wrong just now and reacted quickly, but I was still trapped here.

Being betrayed by this extremely trustworthy old friend, still in such a violent way, his heart is so complicated that he has no time to think about it for the time being. Now he only has one thought - get out!

The buildings here have been built for too long and cannot withstand such an impact.

Ryan couldn't stand due to the impact just now, but he was in much better condition than Brother Bao. He came over to help him: "Brother Bao, leave quickly! This place is going to collapse!"

There was darkness all around, with only a flickering light from time to time allowing them to identify their direction.

When I took out my phone, I found that the screen was cracked and some functions were abnormal, but the flashlight still worked.

Someone must have called for rescue outside. What they need to do now is get out of here as soon as possible!

Unable to see clearly what was under their feet, the two stumbled toward the exit. There were flickering lights there, and it was people outside trying to rescue.

Outside the alley.

Parked vehicles blared with sirens due to the explosion. The screams and shouts of the crowd were mixed in, and it was difficult to make out what was being shouted.

It seemed that he heard his own voice, or there were other voices, and his hearing was shocked and he was not very sensitive.

The thinking nerves are also affected, making them slightly sluggish. However, years of experience and desire to survive still allowed them to accurately judge the direction of the exit and possible obstacles.

Dust and debris kept falling from above, and I didn't know what would fall down next moment.

They quickened their pace.

The closer you get to the exit, the more you can hear people outside shouting to clear the obstacles blocking it.

Hurry up!

boom--

The floor above suddenly sank, the steel of the light frame made a sharp and fragile creaking sound, and various old and new building materials fell apart.

At that moment, their minds went blank for a moment, thinking that the floor would directly come down.

However, the floor sank for a while and then stopped, just above their heads.

Their feet didn't let up at all, and they still headed towards the exit.

Buzz——

The zodiac sign worn around the neck vibrates.

Brother Bao's thoughts were a little confused. He was very familiar with this sound. In order to prove to his daughter that copper coins could scream, he used tools to test many copper coins.

This is an energy resonance.

But why does it bark on its own when there is no specific tool to stimulate it?

Why?

Uncle Bao, who was being helped out by his subordinates, looked back if he felt something.

Bah--

The sparks erupted from the electronic equipment, and a not-so-bright light flashed past.

But he also saw that there seemed to be a figure there.

Still a bit familiar...

who is it?

Who is it?

He opened his mouth, wanting to shout something, but it seemed as if he had lost his voice and no sound came out.

Too shocked, too confused in thinking, completely out of control at the moment.

When he was successfully taken out, Uncle Bao was still in a daze.

boom--

The dilapidated building finally collapsed.

The surrounding vehicles were shaken and sounded piercing sirens again, and their lights flashed, making people panic.

"Brother Leopard? Brother Leopard, are you okay?!" Someone called him next to him.

Brother Bao came back to his senses slightly and looked at Ryan who had just helped him out: "How are you?"

Ryan then reassured and wiped the blood on his head: "I'm fine. I may have had tinnitus due to the shock just now. I kept hearing a buzzing sound. It's fine now. What about you, Brother Bao? Do you have tinnitus?"

"...Nothing's wrong." Brother Bao said.

On the pendant, the zodiac sign has stopped buzzing.

He clutched the zodiac coin tightly through his shirt, his fingers still trembling.

Seeing this, Ryan thought something was wrong with him and exclaimed: "Brother Bao! Are you okay? Someone, come quickly!"

Brother Bao waved his hand: "Stop barking! It's okay!"

"How is everyone doing?" he asked again.

"Everyone is fine. Only two of them were slightly injured. They were unconscious just now, but they are fine," Ryan said. But he still urged the medical staff who came over uneasily.

Everyone's lives are safe. Brother Bao doesn't have so many grudges and hatreds in his mind now. What keeps flashing is the scene he just saw in the dark and critical situation of the underground bar.

Thinking about that familiar figure in the faint light of that spark.

familiar……

After so many years of experience, he thinks he can identify people very accurately. Even in dim light, he will never make a mistake!

Brother Bao's fingers holding the zodiac sign's money trembled even more, and he pulled a subordinate who had been guarding outside the alley. Under the intense emotional impact, his words were a little incoherent.

"Have you seen... seen... Feng... Feng Yi?" he asked.

"Brother Bao, who are you talking about? Feng Yi? I saw it!"

The subordinate didn't expect to be asked about Feng Yi suddenly. Although he didn't know the reason, he still answered honestly.

Brother Bao's breathing was stagnant and his voice was hard.

"Where, where? Where is he?!"

With such a violent reaction, the subordinate thought that the matter was related to Feng Yi, so he did not dare to delay. He immediately took out his mobile phone, opened the circle of friends, and handed it to Brother Bao:

"An acquaintance was dining in the hotel just now. When he saw Feng Yi, he took a secret photo...Brother Bao, is there something wrong with him?!"

Brother Bao stared blankly at the circle of friends displayed on his phone. The person in the photo is indeed Feng Yi, whom I met in the hotel before coming here. He is indeed wearing the same clothes. The background is also a VIP restaurant on a certain floor of the hotel.

Rubbing his eyes, he looked at the release time. just now.

In other words, it is impossible for Feng Yi to appear in two places so far apart at the same time!

Your friend saw Feng Yi, so who did I see?

Such a familiar figure!

Did I see something wrong?

The person standing there is not Feng Yi?

If not Feng Yi, then who?

Or is it that there was a hallucination at that time, but no one was actually there?

No, no, no, there must be someone!

Who is it?

He clutched the zodiac sign under his shirt to spend money.

Could it be...

Did the ancestors appear? ! !

Damn, it’s late!
