After the fat man had completely left, Old Zheng and the nurse finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"What do we do now?" Old Zheng asked Ling Yi.
"Just wait!"
"What are you waiting for?" the nurse asked.
At that moment, the sound of police sirens rapidly approached from afar, and the two instantly understood Ling Yi's meaning.
"Wait a minute... what do you mean?" Old Zheng asked in a low voice.
"To be honest," Ling Yi said with a smile.
As they were talking, three police cars and a black SUV screeched to a halt in front of the ambulance, and heavily armed police surrounded Ling Yi and his group.
Old Zheng and the nurse had never seen anything like it before. Faced with more than a dozen dark gun barrels, they turned pale and trembled all over.
Fortunately, seeing that Ling Yi was still able to maintain a calm expression, they calmed down a bit.
A bearded Black man approached the car door, knocked on the window, and said in an unquestionable tone, "Open the door and get out!"
Ling Yi stood in front of the car door, slowly opened it, and stepped out with his hands raised.
Old Zheng and the female nurse also quickly got out of the car and followed suit, raising their hands.
A young Black man, holding a green cesium-cased device that resembled a microphone, scanned Ling Yi and his companions. After checking the readings, he said to the bearded man, "R35 level 2%, indicating a contact."
At this moment, Ling Yi pointed to the camera and said, "This camera is intact. I suggest you check the surveillance footage immediately; you might still be able to find traces of that person."
The bearded man glanced at the camera, then said to the young man next to him, "Rookie, go check the surveillance footage."
"Yes!"
The young man showed no displeasure at being addressed by the bearded man, respectfully responded, and immediately ran back to the black SUV.
The bearded man looked at Ling Yi with interest and said, " Ling Yi, right? You have good adaptability. You were able to remain calm and deal with the criminals even in the face of danger, and successfully protect yourself. That's remarkable."
"Just trying to protect myself!"
"Why would the other party park their car here?" the bearded man asked, pointing to the security camera.
"I told him the cameras here are broken," Ling Yi said with a smile.
The bearded man paused, then a smile of approval crept onto his lips. "That's right, this definitely saves us a lot of trouble."
At this moment, Ling Yi took the initiative to ask, "What is R35?"
The bearded man waved his hand, pointed at Old Zheng and the female nurse, and said, " Captain Gao, would you please take them back for questioning and go through the proper procedures?"
He paused, then added, "You lead the team back first. As for this kid, I want to question him myself."
"Yes!"
The armed police officers didn't ask any further questions, clearly indicating that the bearded man wielded immense power and had complete command over them.
Old Zheng and the female nurse were taken away, and the emergency ambulance was also driven away by an armed policeman.
Soon, only Ling Yi, Big Beard, and the black SUV parked by the roadside remained at the scene.
Only then did the bearded man look at Ling Yi and ask solemnly, "Do you really want to know?"
"Curious!" Ling Yi nodded.
"You should know that once you get involved in some things, you can never get out of them, and you might even die because of it."
I believe in myself!
"I've looked at your profile, it's very ordinary!" This statement was quite blunt, implying that Ling Yi wasn't qualified to know these things.
Ling Yi smiled slightly and said slowly, "That fat woman isn't her real appearance; she's a woman."
"Although she disguised herself well, her tone of voice, her gait, and some of her behavioral habits cannot be faked."
The bearded man chuckled, "Looks like you know a lot about women?"
"I'm a medical student, specializing in orthopedics. You should know that men's and women's skeletons are very different, and that woman is clearly not used to this body yet, so her walking posture is very awkward."
In other words, this fat man's body houses a woman's soul.
"It's not a soul, but a transfer of consciousness!" the bearded man explained.
" Alien?" Ling Yi asked.
"It's even worse than that." The bearded man admired Ling Yi, and since their department had just been established and was in dire need of manpower, he intended to recruit Ling Yi into the department; otherwise, he wouldn't have said so much to Ling Yi.
"R35 is a New Element synthesized in a laboratory, Element enables Quantum -level energy interaction."
The bearded man seemed uninterested in these technical terms, so he spoke them awkwardly.
After organizing his thoughts, he continued, "About a year ago, our scientists successfully created a Quantum Virtual World using the R35. It is said that once a person's consciousness enters it, it is no different from living in the real world."
"But then, this virtual world went out of control. The originally planned world was just a virtual city with a small space, but then it automatically evolved into a universe, a universe completely different from our own."
Seeing that Ling Yi was listening attentively and even looked deep in thought, Da Hu Si breathed a sigh of relief. Explaining these things was really too difficult for him.
"At first, scientists thought this was a self-evolution of a virtual world, because the core of this world, Quantum computer built with R35 Element, might possess self-evolution capabilities."
"But it was Later discovered that this wasn't the case. That Quantum computer... had huge problems with its calculations and simply couldn't evolve these things automatically. Even if it could evolve, it would take thousands of years to create such a world."
"After that, this virtual world seemed no longer virtual; numerous life forms appeared within it, possessing extremely advanced civilizations, and were even able to communicate with scientists."
"Are you sure it's a dialogue, and not a threat?" Ling Yi had already guessed based on the name of this world.
"They claim to be gods, which roughly means they will provide us with powerful technology, enough to conquer the universe, but on the condition that we Sharing our human world."
" Sharing? That's more like hacking."
"Yes, it was an invasion. Naturally, the higher-ups wouldn't agree, and the meeting ended badly. Afterward, the laboratory exploded, killing all the scientists present, including two generals."
"In other words, we used R35 to open a channel to a microscopic Quantum Universe, and that virtual world became the bridge between the Quantum Universe and our world. Is that a correct understanding?" Ling Yi asked.
"That's right!" The bearded man gave a thumbs up, and after rambling on for a while, the core meaning was this.
"That fat guy, is he from the Quantum Universe?" Ling Yi asked again.
"Yes, they've taken over human bodies through the internet."
"The internet? Since the other side can connect to the internet and take over human bodies through it, the situation should be terrible. If they take over most human bodies... no!"
Ling Yi paused and murmured, "To possess a human body, there must be conditions, R35?"
The bearded man nodded and said, "Yes!"
Do people in the Quantum Realm know how R35 is made?
"Yes, scientists stored all their data in Quantum Quantum at the time, because they considered it the safest place in the world."
"So, the invasion of the Quantum Realm is now inevitable?"
"The government is making every effort to control R35 production; any cases discovered will be dealt with immediately."
Control? It's uncontrollable.
Faced with absolute profit, many people will take risks.
Even if it can be controlled in Ancient Country, can it be controlled in Western countries? Those countries controlled by capital, when faced with interests, would probably not only not control it, but would also secretly promote it.
The Ziming this, Ling Yi understood it, and many others understood it as well.
"I want to join!" Ling Yi said bluntly, taking the initiative to apply.
"Our department is called the Special Incident Defense Bureau, or the Defense Bureau for short. I'm Zhao Hai, the head of the Hongbei Region!"
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Hai added, "You go home first, I'll come find you later."
Through brief contact, Zhao Hai has already begun to approve of Ling Yi. Of course, the specifics will depend on Ling Yi's future performance.
Furthermore, Zhao Hai needs to conduct a more detailed investigation into Ling Yi's identity information, and Ling Yi can only officially join the Defense Bureau after passing the above approval process.
The Defense Bureau was given immense power, and resources were provided almost without limit.
Although there is a current shortage of manpower, it's not something anyone can just join.
It is very likely that Ling Yi can only remain an unofficial staff member for the time being.
However, Ling Yi didn't care about any of that; he just needed to get involved.
He was unfamiliar with this world, didn't know if it was an anime world or a novel world, how the plot would develop, where the Protagonist was, or what the Protagonist's cheat ability was—he knew nothing about any of it.
But as long as you get involved in the plot, these things will gradually come to light.
By the time Ling Yi returned home, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening.
Seeing the disheveled woman in the room, Ling Yi was stunned for a moment before remembering that the character he had switched roles with had a girlfriend.
Of course, it was gone very quickly.
This so-called girlfriend has a good figure, but her looks are just average, especially her triangular eyes and downward-pointing eyebrows. She looks like the whole world owes her something, with a bitter and resentful expression.
This woman was Ling Yi's college classmate. Ling Yi had been her devoted admirer for three years before they officially became a couple just before graduation.
"Weren't you out on a house call today?" the woman asked, her words showing not a trace of shame for being caught cheating.
"You, cheating on me is one thing, but bringing it home to cheat on me? Couldn't you at least go to a hotel? You found this woman, and she can't even afford to pay for that little bit of money?"
Ling Yi said calmly.
"Hey buddy, stop hiding, come out and chat!"
" Ling Yi, what do you mean?" the woman shouted when she saw Ling Yi, who looked completely different from usual.
A greasy middle-aged Uncle came out of the room and awkwardly explained to Ling Yi, "Um... I just came to borrow the restroom."
Ling Yi glanced at the woman, then at the greasy Uncle, nodded, and said, "My bathroom is quite functional, isn't it?"
" Ling Yi, how dare you call me a public servant...?" the woman shouted.
Ling Yi nodded and praised, "Good comprehension..."
