Chapter 851 Broken Surveillance

Since meeting this old man, he has been keeping calm, but when it comes to the meeting room, the old man's expression can't be controlled.

Fear, worry, entanglement...

Countless emotions flashed across the old man's face, and his pupils began to tremble and turned around helplessly.

What caused this always calm old man to react like this?

"Just because the surveillance is broken?"

Li Luo looked at the old man's strange behavior and was a little confused.

"Are you okay?" She asked carefully.

Hearing Li Luo's question, the old man trembled and broke away from the uneasy state.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

He raised his wrist with a trembling hand and looked at the mechanical watch.

"It's time."

In the evening, seven o'clock.

As the second hand passed the 12 o'clock scale, the old man looked at the meeting room where the disappearance case had occurred.

However...

The expected sound did not come, and there was still silence around.

The bubbles in the sky swayed slowly, and the halo of neon lights permeated every corner of the research institute. The conference room that once caused a sensation in Mengdu just stood there quietly, allowing the colorful light to ripple through it.

Silence, still silence.

The old man looked at his watch and frowned.

The uneasiness that had just recovered began to brew again, and the old man's body began to tremble uncontrollably again.

He opened his lips slightly, as if he wanted to exclaim, but his old throat could only squeeze out a little hoarse groan, and the hot air from his mouth was exhaled onto the dial of the mechanical watch, covering the dial with a misty water film.

The old man's pupils dilated again, and his breathing became rapid. He slapped the mechanical watch in panic, but the pointer on the mechanical watch was still turning clockwise little by little, getting farther and farther away from seven o'clock.

"Click, click."

The old mechanical watch is turning to the unknown.

"It's seven o'clock, why hasn't it sounded yet?" He muttered softly, his voice trembling a little.

"Young man, is my watch inaccurate?"

He looked at Li Luo and asked in a daze.

The look in his eyes was full of expectation, like a wandering traveler, sending a distress signal to Li Luo.

Li Luo looked at the time on the electronic screen, swallowed his saliva, and decided to tell the old man the truth.

"Your watch is very accurate."

After she answered, there was a brief silence between the two.

Li Luo looked at the conference room and said comfortingly: "Don't think too much, maybe the surveillance has been repaired?"

"No one has come to repair it..." the old man whispered.

"These electronic products are like this, sometimes they will suddenly break down, and sometimes they will suddenly work. It may be that the components inside are not in good contact, or it may be that the power supply load is insufficient... There are many possible causes for this situation, don't worry too much."

Li Luo saw that the old man's condition was not right, and hurriedly found various explanations.

It is very common for surveillance to be good and bad from time to time. It is something that is not often maintained, so it is normal to have problems.

"Really? Young man... Is it a problem with the electronic products?"

"Yes." Li Luo said affirmatively.

"I know these things are unreliable. If someone is watching inside, these problems will not occur."

"You are right..."

Li Luo kept echoing the old man's words.

With Li Luo's comfort, the old man's anxiety was relieved a lot, but he still stared at the conference room, looking very concerned...

After a while, there was still no sound.

The building stood there quietly, exactly the same as when she first saw it.

Li Luo looked at the old man and began to think about what reason to comfort him.

But thinking about it, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Why is the surveillance working just after I came here?"

No...

Li Luo suddenly thought of something and looked at the cube.

She seemed to have found the culprit.

...

A correct version of the book in 1619!

Observation is the only way to prevent those sounds from coming out.

Whether there are people in the conference room or the surveillance cameras installed in the conference room, the conference room can prevent those strange noises from coming out.

As long as someone can "see" everything that happens in the conference room, nothing will happen.

And "seeing" is what Mo Ling is best at.

At this time, Mo Ling's vision spread throughout the conference room, examining this not-so-big room without blind spots.

"No sound?"

Mo Ling hadn't noticed what was happening outside the building, nor the torment the old man was experiencing. All his attention was on the banquet in the center of the conference room.

Before, he had only seen the text description on Li Luo's electronic screen. Now that he saw the scene of this strange disappearance with his own eyes, Mo Ling was still very excited.

He felt like a detective exploring a dusty unsolved case, carefully looking for clues left at the scene of the crime...

"It's fun."

There was nothing particularly strange about this conference room. If it weren't for the fact that this was the scene of a missing case, no one would think there was anything wrong with it, and no one would think that the "atmosphere" in the room was wrong.

This is an ordinary room. Because it is spacious, it is used as a meeting place. On one side is a screen that can be used for projection, on the other side are some sundries, and in the middle is an ordinary long table.

Perhaps because of the spacious location, this place was borrowed as a banquet venue. The long table was filled with food and some decorative embellishments. The tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks were neatly arranged, waiting for the guests to take their seats.

But the conference room was empty. The "guests" who were supposed to take their seats had disappeared without a trace. Mo Ling also looked at the second floor of the conference room. It was full of all kinds of sundries and there was no space for people to hide.

Looking at the food on the banquet, it was still emitting heat.

A faint white mist slowly floated up and dissipated under the soft lights of the conference room.

When I thought that these foods had been here for twenty years and were still "steaming", a weird atmosphere suddenly surged up.

There were no signs of fighting in the conference room. Although it looked a bit messy due to the arrangement of the banquet, it was generally neat and clean. The food and bowls and chopsticks on the table seemed to have been specially arranged. I don't know if it was sorted by later people or it was like this from the beginning.

"No one should destroy the scene..."

Looking at the warm food, Mo Ling felt more and more strange. After observing for a while, he controlled his vision to get closer to the food.

He wanted to observe these "expired foods" that had been stored for more than 20 years closely to see why they could still remain warm.

Unconsciously, Mo Ling's vision went deep into a roast chicken.

The meat was delicious, the heat was just right, the outside was crispy and the inside was tender, sizzling with oil...

It looked no different from a normal roast chicken just out of the oven.

Looking at the delicious roast chicken, Mo Ling swallowed his saliva.
