"I swear, there are no nuclear bombs in Dreamlands, there really aren't any."
At Phecda headquarters at Da Hwa City, Lucky complained as Wu Shiyu was on her way to the command central.
Lucky stood on her shoulder. He was wearing an orange jacket that revealed only his rodent face and two claws. He looked like a doll. He patted her shoulder and said, "Our place is a poetic place, we don't have cold-blooded creations like nuclear bombs, at least not that I've heard of."
After the tragedy at Mo Bei, Wu Shiyu did not follow the Spell Department to Mo Bei.
The day before the tragedy, she did an ultrasound on the baby and informed the higher-ups about her first month pregnancy.
Nuclear radiation affected children more than adults but it affected the fetus the most. Due to the frequency of cell division in the fetus, if the fetus was exposed to nuclear radiation, there would be a higher chance of error when the cells were repairing themselves. In the end, congenital diseases, abnormalities and even stillbirths could happen.
Therefore, the pregnant woman could not be exposed to radiation that exceeded the natural dose, not even the safe 100mSv.
Therefore, there was not a single pregnant woman at the frontline. Furthermore, this was Wu Shiyu and Gu Jun's baby, a new life that no one knew what it meant.
This was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but at this crucial moment, Gu Jun had disappeared. This caused the upper echelons and some of their close friends to feel a mixture of emotions.
There was a worry that they could not let go, was the baby normal?
Wu Shiyu's pregnancy was too short, she could not perform amniocentesis and the ultrasound could not reveal the shape of the baby.
But based on the current results, she was indeed pregnant, everything was normal.
'Then the illusion that Ah Mei saw … 'Wu Shiyu thought,' If the one she saw was really Dirty-minded Jun, then she was not in Dreamlands. '
She did not know the full situation. She arrived at the Spell Department's base quickly so Tong Ye did not say much on the phone but told her to hurry.
Even though it was midnight, the situation was serious. Finally, there was some news about Dirty-minded Jun so the baby had to stay up through the night.
Not long after, Wu Shiyu hurriedly arrived at the command center. It was a busy scene everywhere. She glanced at the screen. It was 4: 53 am. Most of the live footage showed the people chopping down the trees. The One was on standby outside the quarantine circle. Deng Ximei and the other two were receiving emergency care.
"This poster is definitely not simple …" At the Bureau Chief's command and dispatch desk, Tong Ye was talking to Yao Sinian and the others.
When he saw her walking over, Tong Ye hurriedly called out to her, "Shi Yu, come over and take a look at this poster. See if you have any thoughts on it."
"Oh." Wu Shiyu was also curious. He walked over to look at one of the computer screens on the podium and frowned in surprise.
Before this, Tong Ye and the rest were excited about Deng Ximei's success. It was a breakthrough and the One did not make any unnecessary sacrifices.
What Xi Mei saw in the illusion supported the conclusion of the Nuclear Energy Research Institute. It was indeed radiation from a nuclear explosion.
But where did this illusion happen and what did it mean? Why would Gu Jun be in the convoy?
There were two possibilities. One was that Gu Jun was really there, and the other was that Deng Ximei was mistaken because she could not be 100% sure. She just said, "It seems so."
The actual poster that Deng Ximei brought with her was still in a lead bucket at Mo Bei but a picture was taken and sent to them. The command central did a search but they could not find the same printing style or picture. It could not be found in Mo Bei City, the whole country or even the world.
The poster was simple. Other than a picture of the ocean and two dolphins, there was only one line of Chinese words, 'Protect the ocean, love our home'.
There was no name, no address, no time, no other information.
The words were written in the most common Xin Song font. There was no editing, only a bold font.
Therefore, their search suddenly came to a halt. The physical test was still waiting for the results, including whether it had radioactivity, whether it could be identified as carbon-14, and when it was produced. There was also the blood on the poster. They would take a sample for DNA testing to see what kind of creature the blood belonged to.
"Protect the ocean, love our home?" Tong Ye mumbled to himself, "Could it be related to the R'yleh Cult?"
Prof Jiang from Angell's Order was there as well. He gave his opinion, "That is possible, they believe the ocean is their home."
"Erm erm, Elder Tong, dear leaders …" Wu Siyu said, "This poster was designed by me. I was also the one who drew the background."
When she said that, the group of commanders was stunned. Tong Ye's face twitched and a chill rose in their hearts.
Lucky did not understand them but he could sense the tension in the air. He quickly leaned closer to Wu Siyu's neck and pretended like he did not exist.
"I made this poster for a World Ocean Day charity event when I was in high school, either in my first or second year of high school." Wu Siyu thought back and said, "It was just a small activity. We made a poster and made a hundred copies. Then, we distributed it to the students. If not for this poster, I wouldn't have remembered it. "
"Pretty girl, are you sure?" Tong Ye was surprised. "You can't get that wrong."
"I should have saved the original copy. I have a web drive and all the documents that I made are stored there."
At that moment, Wu Siyu went to a laptop that the staff at the podium had asked her to operate. She logged into her network disk and searched for it. She really found it. It was from the first semester of the second year of high school. She downloaded the folder titled 'Protect the ocean, love our home'. With everyone watching, she opened it. There was a PSD file with the background and poster.
She clicked on the poster and it was displayed on the screen. Ocean, two dolphins, a slogan, it was the same.
Tong Ye, Yao Sinian and Prof Jiang were silent …
The poster promoted World Ocean Day but there was no mention of World Ocean Day. Now that they looked at it, it did fit Wu Shiyu's style.
"I'm 21 this year." Wu Shiyu calculated, "I was 16 in my second year of high school, so that was 5 years ago. I remember printing 100 of them at the time and most of them were thrown into the trash can the next day. This kind of event is just a formality so I didn't put much effort into making this poster. I didn't even keep one for myself. "
But was it possible that the poster was one of the prints that Wu Shiyu made? Was it possible that the poster was transferred from Shen Hai City to Mo Bei City?
All of these were possible. It was just that they did not know the reason behind all of this.
At this point, Wu Shiyu felt like she had to clarify some things. "When Dirty-minded Jun first heard the signal and saw the symbol, it was because he was looking at my painting that he was triggered. Then on the day he disappeared, he brought my watercolor with him and now this poster … "
As everyone listened to what she said, they felt as if there was a huge, treacherous shadow looming over them from an unknown place.
Recently, many things related to Wu Shiyu had happened.
Kedou and Tourette Syndrome had just passed.
She was pregnant with Gu Jun's baby …
This was the reason Tong Ye, Yao Sinian and the rest chilled the more they thought about it.
There was no such thing as coincidence, everything was connected. Was Wu Shiyu really pregnant? Was the child inside her … really a baby?
At that moment, Wu Shiyu touched her stomach. She could feel the signs of life inside, it was not the result of overeating.
Therefore, she started to panic. For the sake of this baby, for the sake of Dirty-minded Jun's posthumous child, for the sake of her acceptance of this child.
"The original artwork for this background should still be kept in the storeroom at home. For some reason, these paintings of mine seem to have gained some kind of power. "
Wu Shiyu had no idea and neither did the others.
But immediately, the command central ordered Shen Hai Phecda to send people to the Wu family to take away all her paintings, especially this sea and dolphin painting.
On the morning of the 16th, the test results on the poster came out.
It was not radioactive, like it had never been exposed to nuclear radiation. Carbon 14 analysis showed that it was not an antique but a product of modern times. The blood stain on the poster was found after a DNA test.
It was Wu Shiyu's blood.
