Chapter 156 White Mist
Sylvie gently rubbed Flora's smooth cheek with the back of her hand. She stared into Flora's eyes as if to induce her.
The other person's eyes made Flora feel dizzy. She felt that Sylvie's eyes were like a blood-red abyss that was about to suck her in. The slow and warm feeling of falling like sinking into a swamp made her feel uneasy.
She tried to look away, but she couldn't.
Finally, it was Sylvie who looked away.
"Hehe, it's okay. As a leader, I always respect the privacy of my employees. Xiao Ming also has secrets, and I didn't force him. So if you don't want to tell me, you don't have to. Just tell me when you want to." Xi Wei said, "Give me an answer now? Are you going to Bai Wu?"
“…”
Sylvie gently held Flora's hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. I'll tell you something in secret. Put your ear close to me."
Flora, like a puppet being controlled, obediently put her ear close . Sylvie moved her lips a few times, and Flora's drowsy eyes suddenly lit up for a moment. She leaned back in the chair and nodded blankly.
“…I’ll go.”
…
The next day, Ying Shuran woke up an hour and a half earlier than usual. The first thing she did after waking up was to open her mobile phone and check the intended support rate on the official website of the Investigation Bureau.
Yesterday's interview between Su Ming and Flora received very good response after it was broadcast, but she does not have any news worth promoting yet.
On the official website, Arthur's support rate is far ahead, and Su Ming ranks second, far behind Arthur but much higher than her. If we only look at public opinion, there is no way she can become the district mayor.
Ying Shuran sighed, sat up from the bed, and changed her clothes skillfully.
She has gotten used to life without an arm, but she has not gotten used to her current environment. From ten years ago to now, she has not been able to get used to it.
Dongyang Island changed from a society where superpowers prevailed to a society where humans prevailed, and the lives of many people were changed. Except for the old nobles and gangs who were once high and mighty, the lives of ordinary people were getting better and better.
After so many years, most people have forgotten how hard life was ten years ago.
But Ying Shuran couldn't forget. She eats and drinks well now, but she could not forget what she had experienced.
Because of the skin infection and loss of fertility caused by the abuse, the name of the person burned by the cigarette on the back is still there. If you close your eyes and think about it, you can still smell the urine smell and stench.
The most unforgettable thing is the blood of the older brother and younger brother. One was hacked to death with an axe, and the younger brother was locked in a cage, crying loudly, and was scared to death. But clearer than the younger brother's crying was the sound of the first axe hitting the older brother's back, and the crisp sound of the second axe cracking his spine.
The memories are no longer so . The anger has burned so many times that even if it could really ignite the blood, it would have burned dry long ago.
She would kill everyone in Longyun Society, she swore.
"Another...month?" Ying Shuran murmured, staring at the date on her phone.
There is still one month left until the election results are announced, which means that one month later, it will be decided whether she has a chance to take down Longyun Society.
If she could become the district chief, she would be able to lead people to take down the Longyun Society. Zhang Tianxiao would help her pass the application and clean up the mess.
But if she can't... then she won't be able to take down Longyun Society. Even though she has many people under her, it's impossible for them to do something illegal for her personal vendetta.
As for her alone, it is even more impossible to succeed. There are too many people in Longyun Society. Even with the power of the devil, she cannot kill them all. The result is bound to be failure. There is no doubt about it.
However, judging from her current support rate, she has already lost, and like other unfavored competitors, she can almost give up early.
As for the future, there would probably be no chance because she only had a few years left to live. It seemed that she was destined to never complete her revenge in this lifetime.
The moment she came to this conclusion, dark despair enveloped Ying Shuran, and the worst-case scenario immediately emerged in her mind. If by then, she really could not complete her revenge, she would just kill as many as she could.
She especially needs to take care of the bosses who were in charge of her family's territory at that time. She has kept those people until now in order to kill them slowly. She killed three in the first few years, and now there are five left. They are all alive and well now and in very good health.
This is also what Ying Shuran wants to see most.
"Thump, th ...
A melodious prelude sounded, and before the caller could start singing, Ying Shuran picked up the phone.
"Yeah... OK... Got it... I'll be there soon... It's okay, I get up so early anyway."
After hanging up the phone, Ying Shuran let out a long sigh. The call from the publicity assistant made her sober up a lot and also helped her suppress the crazy thoughts in her mind.
That’s right, it’s not the final moment yet, it’s too early to give up now, I must work hard to find a way to become the district mayor.
However, since there is no legitimate way, are there any unorthodox ways that might work?
For example, asking Su Ming to let her go?
Perhaps, she should really go and have a good talk with Su Ming. If she opens her heart honestly, maybe he will understand.
But when Ying Shuran went to work to inquire about Su Ming's whereabouts, she heard that Su Ming had gone on a mission. He actually went on a mission at this critical juncture?
…
"You are running for district chief, and they still want you to carry out tasks. I didn't expect it! This is exploitation!" Xia Xiaoyu put her hands on her hips, indignant for Su Ming.
Su Ming sighed, turned to look at Lin Fei beside him, and asked, "Is this mission the minister's idea?"
"Yes, if you can solve this weirdness, I think you should be able to surpass Arthur in one go!" Lin Fei said.
A mission that could surpass Arthur in one go must be very dangerous.
Su Ming sighed. He had known for a long time that this mission would not be that simple.
The location of this mission is a street under the jurisdiction of the 19th Investigation Bureau. This street is connected to the alien space. More than one hundred operators have entered it so far, and even more .
Because the scope of this strange phenomenon was extremely large and had a tendency to spread, it caused great panic in the surrounding areas, so the 19th Bureau asked for help from other investigation bureaus.
But because there were not enough deaths in the 19th inning, the only one who agreed to lend a hand was Sylvie from the 7th inning.
And Sylvie sent Su Ming here to carry out the mission not because she wanted to be a good person, but because this strange social response was huge, and Su Ming had few achievements. Many people also doubted Su Ming's experience in carrying out missions, so she wanted Su Ming to take this opportunity to prove himself.
The 14th Bureau had no plan to send Arthur, but because Su Ming volunteered, the 14th Bureau also hoped that Arthur could perform well, so they sent him over.
"Where is Ying Shuran?" Su Ming asked Lin Fei.
Lin Fei shook his head: "She was not called. Minister Zhang did not seem to have any intention of letting her participate in this mission."
"Is this mission dangerous?"
"The rating is still uncertain. It was C before, but now it's B. The scope of impact is expanding, and it may slowly become A or even S. In short, it must be resolved as soon as possible."
Su Ming nodded. He had heard about the strange characteristics of this incident a long time ago.
At the beginning, this incident was a case of disappearance of an entire gym. Then after investigation, it was found that thick white fog would appear in the gym every half an hour, and anyone who entered the gym during the fog would disappear.
The initial measure taken by the 19th Bureau was to isolate the area around the gym.
A few days later, the area where the white fog appeared expanded, and the white fog in the gym at the center no longer dissipated. The 19th Bureau began to pay attention to this and sent ordinary operators into the white fog to investigate.
Most of the operators who entered the white fog never came back, but occasionally a few operators and ordinary people who came out were obviously mentally abnormal, and had inexplicable beliefs and special abilities, including but not limited to, making people quickly contract incurable diseases, allowing their spirits to enter corpses, etc.
There were fifteen people in total who came out of Baiwu, five of whom were agents of the Investigation Bureau. Within three days after leaving Baiwu, they all had an urgent desire to return to Baiwu and their behavior became uncontrollable.
After being stopped by the Investigation Bureau, the five operators' bodies began to deform at the same time, with their bodies swelling into flesh balls, but they still retained their sanity, and their desire to return to the White Mist became even stronger.
Afterwards, the Investigation Bureau sent all the remaining ordinary people back to the white fog. Currently, the white fog area is still expanding.
"It sounds very mysterious and a bit tricky." Su Ming frowned.
"It is quite supernatural, but the situation is not the worst yet. At least we have a lot of information about it. The era of that alien space seems to be a bit similar to the Middle Ages before the Great Collapse, and some people in it can communicate with you."
"Is this good news?" Su Ming complained.
"That's good news. At least we have some information about what's inside. You know, you didn't have any information before you entered the Black Gate."
Suddenly, Sylvie's voice came from behind, and then a short creature hugged her:
"Dad! Dad! I'm here!"
Su Ming turned around carefully and saw Alice's bright eyes looking at him. She hadn't seen Su Ming for a long time and was very happy to see him this time.
"Alice? You're here too ?" Xia Xiaoyu came over with a smile, took out a handful of candy from storage box number seven and handed it to Alice.
Alice glanced at her warily, then gently took the candy from Xia Xiaoyu's palm with her little hand and nodded obediently: "Thank you, sister."
"So good!" Xia Xiaoyu gently pinched Alice's soft little cheek and smiled, "Don't you want a mother, Alice?"
"think."
"Then how about my sister being your mother?"
"You're not my mother," Alice said seriously.
Xia Xiaoyu's eyes twitched, and she continued to ask patiently, "Then who is your mother?"
Hearing this, Alice lowered her little head, stared blankly at the ground, and quietly clenched Su Ming's hand.
"Alice has no mother," she whispered.
