Chapter 17

Huayu Community.

It was already night at this time, but the police came to the door and the person being questioned was very cooperative.

During the actual questioning, the police stayed outside, while Sheng An and Hao Jingye were in the room with the people being questioned.

The scientific researcher who posted the message was named Song Linwei, and his face was filled with excitement.

Before Sheng An started asking, he couldn't wait to speak:

"Have you already determined that the end will come? The police don't believe me, but you should be people from a higher level, right?"

Sheng'an looked motionless and did not answer. Instead, he asked casually as if he was careless:

"Do you really believe in that so-called Iron Man?"

Song Linwei smiled: "Isn't it because you keep asking me for confirmation because there is something abnormal? If everything is calm, that post will not attract your attention, right?"

A doomsday poster attracted attention. The police didn't believe him at all, but they investigated him again and again.

Tonight, people with obviously higher authority came to continue the investigation. The police were outside and the three of them were inside.

Is there no problem with this?

Sheng'an looked up at him.

This man is very smart and has a clear mind. Judging from all reactions, he has complete control over his consciousness.

This means that he is not crazy, let alone talking nonsense.

Sheng An put the notes in his hand on the table and suddenly asked: "What research do you do?"

Song Linwei obviously didn't expect that she would ask this.

After a pause, he answered honestly: "Physics related."

Sheng An nodded and said, "Then you should be a person who believes in science. I'm curious, how did Iron Man make you believe in him?"

She leaned forward and stared at him.

Song Linwei: "His existence is already very unscientific."

He pointed to his eyes, "And I saw it with my own eyes."

Sheng An was noncommittal. She slowly sat back and leaned against the sofa with a smile on her lips.

"Okay, then Mr. Song, can you tell me - what does the 'Iron Man' you saw look like?"

Song Linwei's lips dropped.

He frowned: "I've already spoken to the police."

"I want to hear what you say with my own ears." Sheng An's smile did not change.

Song Linwei shrugged and sighed:

"Okay, let me say it again. Yesterday morning, before I went out to work, I suddenly noticed something flashing outside my window. I am a sensitive person, so I went to take a look.

"I saw Iron Man, a man covered in gold, no, it should be said to be humanoid. He was standing outside the window, and I happened to be face to face with him."

"Can't you see clearly?" Hao Jingye asked.

Song Linwei shook his head: "It's not so much a golden person, but rather a human-shaped metal. If you see it like that, you will see something unusual. It's very special."

Sheng'an: "What did you say?"

Song Linwei: "I was frightened at the time and took several steps back. My instinctive reaction was to pick up the broom and hit him, but he suddenly spoke and said he was Iron Man..."

Sheng An's eyebrows jumped.

Hao Jingye also frowned.

"He does look like Iron Man, real steel. I said I was going to call the police, but he said the end was coming, so what's the point of calling the police? If you have some spare time, just stock up." Song Linwei sighed.

"So you firmly believe that the end is coming?"

"With such unusual things happening, coupled with the problem of meteorites, do you wonder if there is something wrong with the end of the world?"

"No problem, you are very smart." Sheng An shook his head, "You can tell that Iron Man's gender is a man, but what about his age?"

Song Linwei shook his head: "You can't tell your age."

He sighed again and looked at Sheng An: "I have said everything I know. That Iron Man is real. You will be shocked if you see him."

"But we didn't see it." Sheng An smiled softly, his eyes bottomless, "Do you really have nothing else to say?"

Song Linwei shook his head: "No."

As if he had thought of something, he leaned forward with a distressed look on his face: "Iron Man seems to be very confident that you can't catch him. Can you catch him?"

"Do you want us to catch him?" Sheng An asked instead without answering.

"Of course I do. I also want to know more information. Will the end... come?"

He looked at them, pursed his lips, and asked softly, "So, can you tell me, is there really a doomsday?"

He asked cautiously and very nervously.

Hao Jingye was about to shake his head.

Sheng An suddenly said: "Yes, in 20 days, the meteorite will come, the end will come, and the world will suffer a devastating disaster."

Song Linwei's pupils were shaking.

Hao Jingye was also surprised, obviously he didn't expect why Sheng An said that.

Song Linwei lost his composure for a moment, shock, confusion, and clear despair flashed across his face.

His whole body hung down and his voice was hoarse: "As expected."

Sheng'an: "Now that you know, what are your plans next?"

Song Linwei shook his head, his eyes blank: "I don't know, what other arrangements can be made when the end comes?"

He took a deep breath and licked his dry lips, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret."

There was nothing he could ask here.

Sheng An stood up and said, "Then let's leave first. Mr. Song, if you have any more news, please remember to contact us."

Song Linwei nodded and sent them away.

Hao Jingye looked puzzled.

As soon as he went out, he lowered his voice and asked, "Sister Sheng, why did you tell him?"

The doomsday news is still under lockdown, and logically speaking, it should not be disclosed casually.

There were policemen beside him. Sheng An shook his head and did not answer.

The two were led to another house.

Sheng An raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are they two adjacent buildings?"

Hao Jingye nodded and lowered his voice: "Yes, they are two adjacent buildings, so the information about Iron Man's presence has some authenticity."

This family was a child, and Sheng An didn't ask many questions.

"Kids, what does the Iron Man you see look like?" Sheng An asked softly.

The child thought for a while and curled his lips: "It's not the same as on TV at all, he's very annoying!"

"Oh, what's so annoying about it?"

"He robbed me of Ultraman!" The child was about to cry.

"He's gone too far!"

Sheng'an squatted down, took out an exquisite Ultraman from the bag in his hand, and said with a smile: "Can aunty give this Ultraman to you?"

The child's eyes lit up and he immediately took it into his hands.

He looked at Sheng An with bright eyes: "Thank you, sister."

Sheng An touched his head and his smile became gentler:

"It's so cute. Can you tell me what he looks like? And what did he tell you? Tell me and we will help you find him and get Ultraman back for you."

Hearing this, the child's eyes brightened even more, he held Ultraman tightly and nodded heavily.

The child is remembering very seriously.

But children are not very logical. They kept saying something here and there. Sheng An and Hao Jingye concluded from the fragmented information——

Yesterday, the child was locked at home and suddenly heard movement outside the window.

The child couldn't open the window, but he opened the curtains.

He saw a gleaming Iron Man.

He asked: "Who are you?"

——He is also very courageous and not afraid at all.

The "Iron Man" heard the sound outside and opened the window directly.

He suddenly jumped in, and the child was so frightened that he cried.

"Iron Man" ignored him and just said: "Stop crying, you are so annoying."

At this time, he saw the Ultraman figure on the wall.

"Iron Man" asked the child: "Do you believe in light?"

The child was frightened and just cried.

The man curled his lips, and after saying something unknown, Ultraman left with the child in his arms.

Hao Jingye asked again: "Kid, do you really not know what he said?"

The child shook his head.

He was too busy crying at that time to remember.

Hao Jingye sighed.

Sheng An touched the child's head and looked at the fingerprint before leaving with Hao Jingye.

*

Out of the community gate.

The two said goodbye to the police and got into their cars.

Hao Jingye: "Their information overlaps a lot, and the two have never met each other and have not had any contact. Although the child's words are slightly different, the key information is the same and is the truth. It seems that 'Iron Man'... .could be true.”

"It's true from the beginning, a metal superpower."

Sheng'an started the car and said calmly: "Continue to investigate Song Linwei, check his living environment, family situation, his family members, relatives, etc., as well as the people he has come into contact with in the past three days, and sort them out for me."

Hao Jingye was surprised: "You doubt him?"

He sat up straight in an instant and said anxiously: "Does Song Linwei have any questions? But no matter how many times he asks, he always gives the same answer, and it doesn't sound like he is lying."

Sheng An told Song Linwei about the "doomsday", which already surprised Hao Jingye.

Hearing this, he noticed her different reactions.

Sheng An smiled: "He did not lie, but he must have selectively concealed some content."

"Is he the one with the metal power?!" Hao Jingye boldly guessed.
