Chapter 604 Jiang Wengao's Sentimentality
After speaking, Edward took out a small notebook and a USB flash drive from his body.
“I have submitted the information that everyone can know to the parliament, and it is estimated that everyone will know it soon.
The book contains my network of contacts with various identities, and the USB flash drive contains some of my Monternet accounts. I communicate with them through those accounts. The passwords and verification information are all on it.
It may come in handy in the future, but I guess it will only be able to help a small number of people. "
"Why do I feel like you're asking for help?" Xia Shou took the notebook and USB flash drive.
"No way. If the integrated resources are not used as much as possible, they will be wasted. This time I am going to recycle history. I won't be able to use these things if I take them there, and there is no place to save them. It feels more secure to leave them to you." Edward Said in a matter-of-fact tone.
While they were talking, their plates were empty.
Xia Shou's cell phone vibrated, and the message he received was that the deal with the funeral home had been completed.
The souls of the members of the funeral home that he handed over a few days ago have arrived on the other side, and the body of the member named Huangfu Zuoren that he requested has also been received and revived.
Currently, the thousands of civilians kidnapped by the funeral home have returned to their original appearance and have been properly placed in other cities by the Control Bureau.
In addition, the Control Bureau also created a new mailbox for him, specifically used to receive letters from those who were rescued in this incident. He can choose to go up and read them, or he can ask the administrative department to help with the replies.
"The meal is finished, it's almost time for me to set off." Edward stood up.
"Be careful." Xia Shou didn't know how to say goodbye to the other party, so he could only be so polite.
Edward waved freely and said goodbye with a smile: "Goodbye."
They parted at the door of the restaurant. Xia stayed in the middle area between the office area and the museum, watching Edward disappear behind a revolving door, and then let out a sigh of relief with complicated emotions.
Is this the legendary investigator?
They seem to be living a completely different life than the person they ended up with, which makes people a little curious.
After dinner, I returned to Department 3. Jiang Wengao was the only one in the office, and Shangguan Yan didn't come back either.
When Jiang Wengao was sitting alone in the empty office, there was a bored emptiness on his face.
Everyone was obviously busy at this time, but he looked dull and confused as if he had nothing to do. When he saw Xia Shou coming in, he was flustered for a moment, and then showed a guilty expression.
"Brother Shou." Jiang Wengao called softly.
"Why were you nervous just now? I'm not a minister." Xia Shou joked.
Jiang Wengao sighed and said nothing.
Xia Shou walked behind the other party. On his computer was the branch's official website, which contained today's latest reports.
The transfer of civilians in Jiangbo City has begun, and the family members of the management and control bureau employees are all on the first batch of escort lists.
In addition, the distribution of abnormality index in the city has been completely disclosed.
Originally, you had to apply to access this data, but now you can open the city map and see the level of anomalies in each area.
There are only a few areas of safe green, most of which are unstable yellow, and about 10% of the area has turned dangerous red.
The most serious areas are still flashing red, as if to remind viewers that this place is very dangerous.
In the floating text, the number of casualties is updated in real time. If you glance at the news headlines, you will know that the number of murders in the city has doubled. The local secular government is about to collapse due to the pressure of public opinion.
Those numbers are so realistic when they fall into my eyes.
Looking at these cruel numbers, Xia Shou suddenly knew why Jiang Wengao had that expression.
The changes that have taken place in this city can no longer be reversed by one person's efforts. The situation is getting worse step by step, almost unstoppably.
Anyone who sees this trend will feel tired and hopeless, and even have no motivation.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, it has nothing to do with us." Xia Shou patted Jiang Wengao on the shoulder and comforted him.
Jiang Wengao looked at Xia Shou in shock. He saw that Xia Shou's expression was calm and he didn't seem to have much sense of urgency.
"Brother Shou, aren't you worried?"
"What do you mean?"
"This city."
"There must be worries, but only God knows what the outcome will be. The only thing we can do is to go all out." Xia Shou comforted.
In fact, he had begun to regret talking to Xiao Gao. He was not good at comforting his juniors.
However, at this time, I still need to give you a few words of enlightenment.
Xia Shou organized his words in his mind and tried his best to speak in a serious tone:
"I understand Xiao Gao's desire to protect others, and I also understand his current inner struggle and powerlessness, but I actually don't care much about the future of this city."
"Ah?" Jiang Wengao looked at Xia Shou blankly, thinking he heard wrongly.
Xia Shou continued:
“When something like this happens, all I care about is whether I gave my best.
As long as you push everything to the limit, then whatever happens afterwards, whether it's sadness or pain, leave it until later.
Tears are shed after the war. During the war, you just have to immerse yourself in the charge. When you are tired, lie down in the trench and rest. Don't think about how many people died because of my laziness after I rested for such a while.
This kind of pressure is useless, you just need to pay attention to your body, whether your muscles are tired, whether the shot is accurate, and whether you can survive the subsequent artillery bombardment.
Reviewing and learning are left until after everything is over. This is the case with everything. "
Jiang Wengao was stunned.
Xia Shou could tell that the other party was frightened by his words.
Very good. If you want this effect, urge him to work immediately. I really can't pretend anymore.
"With your current mental state, you are... unqualified as a finisher. Instead of looking at these casualties in a daze, don't you have a report to write?
I don't believe the minister didn't assign you a task. "
"I...I'm almost finished writing, so I'm going to take a short rest." Jiang Weng's floating emotions were suddenly pulled to the ground by Xia Shou.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and several people filed in one after another.
Ke Hen applauded with an expressionless face and praised in a cold tone: "Oh, great, great. I heard all the speeches made by the seniors. They are so mature and steady."
Walking behind Ke Hen was Bai He.
Xia Shou couldn't see the shape of the other person's mouth under the mask, but from the other person's curved eyebrows, he could tell that Brother Bai was making fun of him!
Damn, they were all heard.
Sure enough, except for a fool like Jiang Wengao who could bluff someone like Jiang Wengao, these old fritters wouldn't believe it at all.
Damn it, I should have known better and wouldn’t have said anything. It’s so embarrassing.
"You...are all back." Xia Shou scratched his head.
Bai He glanced at Xia Shou, then turned to Jiang Wengao, and said calmly: "What Xia Shou said just now is indeed good, but I have a better way to adjust my mentality. Do you want to know?"
"What?"
“In the past month, the number of people killed in secular wars in the oil region was 40,000, which is much more than the number of people who died due to anomalies in Jiangbo City.
And according to statistics, the number of deaths caused by human-human wars has always been much higher than the number of deaths due to abnormalities.
This does not include the secular war involving supernatural intervention.
War happens all the time, and the efficiency of human beings in killing their own kind is much higher than that of anomalies.
Even this time, in the final analysis, it is a war between humans competing for names.
Many times, anomalies are just tools for humans to massacre their own kind.
Xiao Gao, if you want to save as many people as possible, you don’t need to be the finisher. It’s better to be the peace ambassador.
The Control Bureau was not established in the hope of world peace and allowing all mankind to live a stable life.
Now that only a few people have died in this city, you are no longer motivated. In the past, so many people died in battles every day, and you never had trouble eating. "
Bai He paused and added: "I think if those who are in danger know what you are doing in the office, they would rather you watch one more online class than stare at the casualty data in a daze."
Jiang Wengao: "..."
