Luo City.
Xie Biqi was startled by the sound of someone banging on the door.
Bang bang bang!
She looked at the door with a displeased expression. "Who is it?"
The door opened and a group of men in black walked in. The leader bowed to her. "Senior Inspector Xie Biqi, we are from the Imperial Department of Internal Affairs. This is your transfer order! Please come with us. Li Ziluo, please come with us. Some of your office supplies will be sealed. Please cooperate. "
The Imperial Department of Internal Affairs?
This was a department even more feared than the Disciplinary Investigation Department. It was not under the jurisdiction of the Cabinet or the Prime Minister, but directly reported to the Emperor of the Xia Dynasty.
Xie Biqi took the transfer order and stroked the complicated texture of the paper, as well as the clear metal seal. She knew that it was real.
"I've been transferred to … the Special Games Review Bureau? A newly established department? "
As a bureaucrat of the Empire, she knew how difficult it was to establish a new department. It was not unusual for it to take years to prepare.
Moreover, to transfer people across departments without her knowledge, the authority required was unimaginably great.
"Yes, the Special Games Review Bureau. It was just established last night. Please come with us."
The men in black from the Imperial Department of Internal Affairs looked cold as if this was a mission they could not refuse.
"I understand. This is what I want."
Xie Biqi nodded and followed the men out of the office. It was already chaotic outside. A large number of men in black were sealing up all the documents.
She glanced at the innocent Li Ziluo and gave him a comforting look. She followed the men out of the building and into a black limousine.
"Although the Special Games Review Bureau is a new department, it has been authorized by the Cabinet and the Emperor. If necessary, we can even mobilize the garrison to cooperate …"
An emotionless voice came from the front, "Captain Xie Biqi, please do not let the Empire down. Now, there are two people who want to see you!"
The back of the car seat opened up and a screen appeared.
The person inside looked very familiar to Xie Biqi.
She often saw this old man on TV. She could not help but say excitedly, "Prime Minister …"
…
Xie Biqi got out of the car in a daze. She sensed that she had arrived at a secret base in the suburbs.
She was still immersed in the meeting just now.
As a low-level bureaucrat, she never dreamed that she would have a few words with the Prime Minister and the Emperor.
But just now, all his dreams had come true!
He even encouraged her to let go of her emotional baggage and work hard.
"What's the structure of the Office of Special Investigations?"
After getting out of the car, Xie Biqi was full of energy.
"The Bureau of Special Investigations only has one director, Shen Mo. He's in charge of several special operations teams and logistics teams. There are currently nine captains, and you're one of them."
A man in black bowed and said, "The chief is waiting for you!"
Xie Biqi walked into the Office of Special Investigations and arrived outside a conference room.
He heard a fierce quarrel.
"Unbelievable … Combining all the cases, we can be sure that everyone was affected by a mysterious force, causing them to completely ignore the initial signs of danger."
"What is this? A large-scale hypnosis? "
"No one can hypnotize everyone in the world, unless he is God!"
"I suspect that there's a problem with our internal department. Those officials who have come into contact with the report must be investigated …"
"In the current situation where everything is unknown, I think it is extremely irresponsible and dangerous to investigate such a phenomenon! It is very likely to anger the existence behind the game, leading to unpredictable consequences! "
"Everyone here is an elite from all walks of life. I don't care about anything else, but before today, we must come up with a plan to live up to the trust of the Prime Minister and His Majesty!"
…
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the conference room opened, and a middle-aged man walked out. "Captain Xie, hello, I'm Shen Mo!"
"Hello, Chief Shen!"
Xie Biqi recognized the voice of the spokesperson and quickly shook his hand.
"Let's talk in my office. Captain Xie's serious and responsible work attitude is admirable, especially the hundred files that you've created, which have been classified as top secret. They've been of great help to us in our investigation of the players …"
Shen Mo's words and actions had a kind of swift and decisive flavor.
Everywhere he passed, everyone, be it ordinary staff or the men in black from the Internal Affairs Department, bowed their heads in respect.
The two talked as they went to the office.
At the door, a capable woman who looked like a secretary quickly reported, "Chief … The small factory that makes the glasses has been found. So far, a total of 99,527 units of VR glasses have been produced. 30,000 units have been sealed in the warehouse, and the remaining 40,000 units in the transportation sequence have also been seized by customs. 15,368 units in the retail and dealer channels have also been urgently recovered … The remaining 14,159 units have been sold and are being tracked …"
"The sealed equipment has been sampled and analyzed. The material is the same as the game equipment, and it can be confirmed that it is the same batch of products … The factory owner and workers have been controlled, and the blueprints have been sealed. This type of glasses is a counterfeit product. The designer is in the Celestial Alliance, and now the overseas department is negotiating …"
Xie Biqi suddenly felt a little suffocated.
The power of a country was overwhelming, and it was not a lie!
And judging from this strength, the determination of the people above was also incredible!
"Continue to follow up."
Shen Mo listened without changing his expression, sent the secretary out, and personally poured a cup of tea for Xie Biqi. "Now, we can talk about this game."
"What? Its developer hasn't been found? "Xie Biqi was surprised." I remember it came from a small company with overseas funds … "
"That's simply a shell company, and we can't find any clues …"
Shen Mo sat down and said, "First of all, welcome to the team. Then, we all know that we are investigating what kind of magical game it may bring hope, or it may lead to the crisis of world destruction … It's not just extraordinary power, but something closer to the rules. You reported it before, but you didn't get a response, right? In fact … in this game, the senior officials of all countries in the world have their intelligence forcibly lowered, or they instinctively choose not to believe it. "
"Then, last night, this power mysteriously disappeared …"
"Disappeared?" Xie Biqi felt a chill down her spine.
"About this game, let's say it's a game for now. You know more about its magic than I do. I'll tell you the results of our current investigation. It hasn't passed the review, it doesn't have a review number, and it has always been in closed beta … However, its official website is like a ghost, and even the best hackers can't find the slightest trace of it, and its server is actually located in an empty space!"
Shen Mo said in a deep voice, "This may be a game of God, or it may be the temptation of the devil."
"Then, what is the purpose of the Special Investigation Bureau?" Xie Biqi took a deep breath and asked the most important question.
"To carefully explore the secrets behind the game, and … to deal with the extraordinary players, and the completely different domestic and international situation!"
Shen Mo replied in a deep voice.
