If you become a monster, you will succeed.

Chapter 58 The Past and Present of Infinite City
"If I'm not wrong, you should be the relevant departments that specialize in dealing with this kind of thing?"

Just when the policemen began to think whether Chen Xiyao had gone crazy, Chen Xiyao suddenly asked such a question. Hearing this, the leading policeman took out his own ID from his arms, and took out his photo And the page with the big steel seal was shown to her, and after she clearly confirmed the details on it, she opened her mouth and said:

"That's right, we are from the Yan Country Wei Tan Countermeasures Bureau. This name should be relatively unfamiliar to you. In a more popular way, it means approaching science."

"Get closer to science? Are you serious?" Chen Xiyao originally thought that the strategy of ghost talk sounds quite compelling, but it turned out to be closer to science?
The policeman did not respond to Chen Xiyao's question, but instead said:

"Do you know where the place you went to is?"

"I heard it's called Infinite City." Chen Xiyao didn't ambiguous on this issue, but directly said the name she heard from Feng Xue. The policeman nodded slightly after hearing the words, and then explained:
"Ghost stories have existed in this world since ancient times. In ancient times, people made up gods because of their fear of nature. From these worship of gods, the first batch of ghost stories were born. But as time went by, the human beings mastered The power is gradually increasing, the technology is slowly improving, and the fear of nature and gods is also decreasing, which leads to fewer and fewer new monsters, and the power is getting weaker, especially more than 400 years ago. The Feathered Serpent God was killed by the Iberian colonists along with the Aztec civilization, marking the official end of the era of ghost stories and gods.”

Chen Xiyao knew that it was impossible for this story to come to an end here, otherwise there would not be such an organization, but she did not open her mouth to cheer, but quietly waited for the next one. Sure enough, after a slight change of breath, the police came to Then said:
"But after the 70s, Dongguo's self-confidence was over-inflated due to the economic bubble. After the bubble burst, the spirit and economy of Dongguo people were hit irreparably. The so-called lost generation..."

"I know this. The story of Spirited Away is actually the story of the lost generation who worked hard to find themselves..." Chen Xiyao thought of the movie analysis she had watched in her heart, thought silently, and at the same time put Feng Xue and Bailong drew an equal sign.

The police obviously didn't know what Chen Xiyao was thinking, so they continued:
"Because Dongguo has been an elf belief since ancient times, believing that everything can become a god, and the spiritual emptiness of the lost generation and the loss of the golden generation after falling from a high place created a great emptiness of belief, which led to a large number of people in Dongguo. Accompanying it are ghost stories that haven't been born for a long time, and they began to appear in Dongguo like a blowout. Although most of them are just ghost stories such as rip girls and night monks, which are at most ordinary murderer levels, but they are also There are some extremely powerful beings, such as the place you went to this time, the world called Infinite City."

Hearing this, Chen Xiyao straightened up unconsciously, letting herself regain her spirits from the relaxation after returning home.

When the policeman saw her expression, he didn't know what was going on in his mind. While paying attention to Chen Xiyao's mental state, he said cautiously:
"The predecessor of Infinity City was a large-scale high-tech community built in the capital of Dongguo in the 70s. You may not be very clear about it, but your parents' generation should be familiar with this matter. At that time, Dongguo claimed to be the world's most The advanced technology is concentrated in it, which can become the blueprint for all future communities, and it is true later. Many luxury communities now adopt the design concept of that community, whether it is layout or design plan, but as the Dongguo nation at that time The community that embodied self-confidence, but with the burst of the economic bubble, it was unfinished."

"Rotten, unfinished?!" Chen Xiyao opened her eyes wide in disbelief, repeating this unexpected and reasonable answer. Such a large community must not be completed in a year or two, but why? Let's just say...it feels weird.

"That's right, it was unfinished. This building complex, which almost embodies the self-confidence of the Dongguo people at that time, seemed to disappear overnight. Then, this community really disappeared. I mean the physical level. "

When the policeman said this, he was silent for a moment, as if he was waiting for Chen Xiyao to absorb the information, and Chen Xiyao really asked:
"So this community went to another world? It became an infinite city?"

"It did become an infinite city, but it didn't go to another world." When the policeman said this, his expression became serious——

"Under the overall sluggish environment of the Eastern Kingdom, Infinite City has become a super-large ghost story. It disappeared into this world together with the glory of the golden age, but it has sneaked into the shadow of the world. This is not a description, because Since then, the Infinite City will occasionally produce passages connecting with reality.

"In the beginning, these passages were concentrated in Dongguo, because there were a lot of ghost stories there, and everyone thought they were disappearing ghost stories similar to 'God's Hidden', but as time went by, these passages began to appear all over the world, almost every time When the passage is opened, an ordinary person will disappear, but what really makes the countries vigilant is that the Infinite City is producing strange stories."

"Can Guai Tan give birth?" Chen Xiyao faintly sensed something, and immediately asked, and the police immediately gave a positive answer:

"Yes. Human thoughts are weighty. When countless thoughts gather, ghost stories will be produced, and those living in the infinite city will torture the living to obtain the fear they want, so that they can turn themselves into ghost stories. , and when these ghost stories grow to a certain extent, they will use those doors to invade reality, and gain more power through large-scale killings.

"In the past 30 years, there have been more and more cases like this, and the methods of the residents in Infinite City have become more and more cruel. Especially in the past ten years, almost every one of those who came back from there by chance suffered unimaginable torture. , there are very few who can communicate normally, and those who can barely communicate have extremely limited information.

"It's the first case in ten years that you are a returnee who is intact and in a relatively normal mental state, so we hope to learn from you, what is the world like over there?"

The policeman's tone suddenly became serious and serious, making Chen Xiyao even involuntarily want to stand at attention and salute.

She took a deep breath, and many experiences in Infinite City began to match with the information the police told her. Feng Xue's many strange actions seemed to have corresponding answers.
