Chapter 2073: Panic (Part 1)

7:38 AM
Several people in the 2nd department are in an alley. Both sides of the alley have been blocked by the 5th department. The local 5th department received a report early this morning. The two men were missing. The report was made by their family members.
Surveillance has been called, and it was discovered that the two men walked into this alley, but they never came out again. Some residues in the alley have been investigated, and the biological information of the two men and another one have been found. The biological information of the missing female.
Such a discovery made people in Division 2 feel uneasy. I don’t know how many people were parasitized like Hu Xue. The streets were full of onlookers. Pedestrians didn’t know what happened, but they saw people in Division 2. Here, you know that there will be no good things.
The above has already strictly ordered a more detailed investigation of the surrounding area. By analyzing some DNA information and finding the biological information of the missing woman, her whereabouts can be determined. Soon several members of the 2 families who performed biological DNA information identification on the roof were found. DNA information of missing women.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the Operations Department urgently issued a curfew order. After 0 o'clock, all shops will be closed and all shops will be returned home. Don't come out.
Many people don’t know what happened. Outside the district council office in District 46, there was a crowd of people. Many councillors didn’t know what had happened, but they had already received notice from the leaders of several factions. Everyone in the area is at home after 0:00 in the evening.
At this time in the local security management office, Qin Dong was looking at the investigation information that came back from the scene, and Lilian looked serious on the side.
These parasitized people have already begun to attack passers-by, which is enough to show that they have no ability to control the parasitic plants.
Based on many inquiries to Hu Xue last night, one thing can be determined. Hu Xue often has the idea of ​​wanting to eat people around him. Such thoughts will turn into concrete actions. This is why Hu Xue went to the city. The reason for the edge is that if it weren't for being hungry for five days, Hu Xue didn't plan to contact people.
The current situation is to implement a large-scale curfew to find the parasites as quickly as possible. If Frye’s hypothesis is correct last night, then these types of plants are likely to be parasitic on humans on a large scale. Humans are completely reduced to monsters.
There are so many places in this city that there is no light, and there is no way to conduct a comprehensive investigation.
The installation of railings and bright lights in the subway station has already started and will be completed by 12 noon at the latest.
The streets are full of doubtful people, because the reason given by the Action Division is that there are some problems with power recently and the power equipment needs to be upgraded, so the curfew can only be implemented to reduce the loss of power.
Many people obviously don't believe this argument, because many people feel it has nothing to do with power loss and equipment upgrades. If this is the case, there is no need to install guardrails and bright lights in subway stations.
"Paper can't contain fire, what should I do."
Qin Dong murmured, Lilian was also a little helpless, and the two were assigned to be responsible for the inspection work command for the night of the curfew.
"We can only hide it temporarily. If this matter is made known to the people now, the city will fall into panic."
"I hope there are no casualties."
Qin Dong murmured, the two continued to watch the on-site investigation, and soon another disappearance case appeared. The area was in the 96th district at the bottom, and the man who went out to drink at night disappeared on the way home.
"Let's wait until the decision is made above."
As Lilian said, Qin Dong nodded. He planned to hold an urgent press conference to formally make a curfew speech.
8:03
In the conference room of section chiefs of the General Affairs Division, Wu Qun and other representatives of the congressmen have all come over. Locke and Michelle are explaining the matter, and the other section chiefs are already busy with their own affairs.
"That is to say, this kind of plant can turn parasitic people into monsters. Why didn't you inform us last night for such an important matter."
Beckinsale looked a little annoyed, because someone was missing in the film and television area. He is currently under investigation and is a young actor.
Wu Qun waved his hand and grabbed the excited Beckinsale.
"This is an issue of urban safety, and it has nothing to do with you!"
Michelle replied, the atmosphere in the conference room was a little serious, and Wang Ying laughed.
"It really has nothing to do with us, but the key is that this kind of paper-like reason can convince the public?"
Lin Xiao echoed the road.
"Indeed, if this continues without revealing the truth, the people will become suspicious, and when a bigger problem arises, that's not the case."
Chris also agrees and feels it is necessary to announce the truth. Locke also knows that publishing the truth can at least enable the public to respond when encountering such parasites, but these matters involve some secrets, and in case people with ulterior motives use it. With this kind of plant-like power, then it will be in trouble.
Especially those rioters lurking in the city, they should not miss this opportunity to disrupt the city.
"Wait a minute, check the curfew for several consecutive nights. If you can catch these parasites, you can solve the problem smoothly."
Although Wu Qun viewed it in this way, he still felt uneasy, one thing after another, completely endless.
"What should I do if there is still no way to catch the parasites after the curfew?"
Beckinsale asked.
"Then we will announce the truth."
Michelle replied that the congressmen stopped talking at this time, but the latest news came. Three people disappeared last night. Through research and observation of Hu Xue and inquiries, some things can be obtained. These things are The activity time and cycle of this parasite, and the time period during which the body's consciousness may be deprived.
When the body is weak, when hungry, or when the emotions are strong, the consciousness will be deprived of the plant-like species, and what will happen afterwards, although the parasitized person has memory, it is rather vague.
So this time the problem is more serious, and everything can only be seen by the curfew tonight.
"Everyone, go to my private lounge first. Let's have a cup of tea and talk, and I hope you will inform the district councils everywhere."
Wu Qun stood up and nodded, and the group left the meeting room.
At this time, an interview made the headlines. A large number of reporters were interviewing Le Xiao, and Michelle looked at it with a serious expression.
"As for what the matter is, we can only announce it after the matter is over. I hope everyone believes that there are indeed some problems. That's why the curfew is implemented. Therefore, I hope everyone can strictly observe the curfew time, from 0 o'clock in the evening to the next morning. Stay home at 6 o'clock and never go out."
Michelle breathed a sigh of relief. Le Xiao said that was just right. As long as the people in the city know that there is indeed a curfew problem, at least the people will have a certain amount of psychological preparation in advance.
8:25
Le Xiao returned to the desk in the shop. She looked tiredly at the reporters who were still reporting outside. There was another huge problem in the city, and it seemed that the problem would never be solved.
"What's wrong, Le Xiao."
Le Ying leaned over with a smile, and Le Xiao looked around.
"This is a confidential cousin, but I can tell you."
Le Xiao pulled Le Ying and went upstairs. Of course, C knew what had happened. As soon as Le Xiao went upstairs, he said a lot about plant-like things, and C could only be extremely shocked.
The news is full of reports about the truth about the curfew, but Le Xiao’s words have broken something because there is indeed a serious problem.
For a while, many people seem to be in a hurry, whether it's going to work, work, or eating, because many things have to be done, otherwise, when it's 0 o'clock, there will be no way to move outside.
Many food shops have carried out temporary promotional activities, and you have to quickly consume some of the ingredients in the shops. After all, many shops do business at night. If a long-term curfew is imposed, it will cause problems for these shops that are open at night. A devastating blow.
Some barbecue shops even start selling pickled food and drinks during the day. The curfew is not allowed on the street, and no shops on the street are allowed to open their doors, but there are no restrictions at home.
Many people plan to buy some barbecue materials in advance, and wait to cook at home in the evening.
The tense atmosphere envelops the city, and the streets are overwhelmed. The people of the 5th department are trying their best to help, but this kind of congestion becomes overwhelmed at 8 o'clock in the evening.
Many shops are overcrowded, and many people are rushing to buy something, because they realize that there must be some major problems with this curfew, otherwise it would be impossible to implement a full curfew.
9:03 p.m.
Le Xiao dragged his exhausted body back home. The street was in depression. Many shops had closed ahead of time. The subway station was too congested. The city has gone from the hustle and bustle of the past. Many streets are no longer empty, and most of the street lights are off.
There are only a large number of members of the 5 Sections patrolling along the street, they all carry sufficient light sources, and the surveillance in each district is watching. If any abnormalities are found, the members of the 5 Sections patrolling nearby will be notified to pass.
"Mom, don't turn off the lights. If that kind of plant climbs up, it will eat us."
Le Xiao said drunkly, she was drunk again, only then can she stop and relax her tired head.
"Knowing Lele, you hurry up to rest, don't you have to go to the General Affairs Division tomorrow at 5 o'clock."
Le Xiao gave a hum, carrying a bottle of wine, strolling around with a few mouthfuls, picking up some vegetables and stuffing it into her mouth. Su Xin was a little worried, because Le Xiao has become more and more like a drunkard recently. I used to drink a little before going to bed at night, but now according to Le Ying, she also drinks a little while working at noon.
"Can your body stand this going on!"
At this time, a ray of light flashed outside, and some people in 5 subjects walked on the street. The people in 5 subjects were informed by the exact situation at 8 o'clock. Many people couldn't believe it, but they had to believe that everyone. They all took their phones and adjusted the lighting to the maximum.
As it approached 11 o'clock, some news appeared on the Internet. Some light-fearing monsters were moving in the city, and the Action Division was vigorously searching.
This kind of news detonated the Internet in an instant, but soon the news disappeared. Everyone was speculating on the authenticity of this news, but it is said that someone heard it from a friend of 5 subjects.
But the speculation soon became a reality, because many people have seen that in the 5 subjects patrolling along the street, everyone has a light source. Such a move has shown the authenticity of the news that appeared on the Internet.
The lights came on, and some people who already believed turned on the lights at home, but the Acting Division still did not give any explanation.
People from the special management team are already on standby in the center of each district. Once there are any problems, they will go to the place where the incident occurred as soon as possible.
Although these monsters are extremely powerful and fast, they are still not comparable to well-trained mutants. The most important thing is that they are humans, so when they are captured, they can only be suppressed, directly using mind power to suppress them. Then it can be contained with special equipment.
"How's it going!"
Niya entered the temporary command office of the District 46 Public Security Administration. Qin Dong and Lilian were still looking at the situation in various places, checking the patrol route and situation.
"Section chief, there is no situation for the time being."
After sitting down with a yawn, Niya lit a cigarette, looked at Lilian who was a little nervous, and said with a smile.
"Relax, if this monster has no weaknesses, maybe we should be nervous, but doesn't this monster have obvious weaknesses!"
Dididi
As soon as Niya's voice fell, news of the discovery of the parasite came from the horse in Area 49. Qin Dong immediately gave the order and Niya laughed.
"My old lady went over and took a look in person, here is very close to over there."
Soon Niya went directly to the roof, and quickly shuttled across the top of the house, and the people from the special management team rushing over there could already be seen.
Niya came to the scene 5 minutes later and saw the parasites who had been put in the low-light cage. There were people from the special management team all around, and many general staff in the 5 departments looked at them with a little fear.
"Thanks, everyone, it's okay. Once you find these parasites, you can directly use strong light to stop them."
Niya's words made many people feel a little more relaxed. After a while, news came from another area where the parasite was found that the parasite had been captured.
It was just another news that puzzled Niya, because someone reported the crime and a family disappeared. Niya immediately confirmed the location and rushed over.
The person who reported the case was a neighbor, because he heard a loud noise next door. When it passed, the family of four had disappeared. After coming to the scene, Niya looked serious and looked at the missing part of many places in the house. It seems to have suddenly disappeared into another dimension.
