Chapter 601 Gattuso

In the current situation, Newcastle can't count on much help, and he has no control over the affairs of the Ministry of Security, let alone the special departments under the official government.

As someone's spokesperson, Hannibal Lecter has shown enough value in himself that he can't find a reason to refuse.

Besides, as the deputy director of the Epidemic Prevention Institute, it is not so embarrassing for Newcastle to issue an announcement.

Anyway, making a difference is better than sitting in an office waiting for bad news to hit your door, isn't it?

"Today at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, I will hold a press conference, mentioning the admission and treatment of severely infected patients, and raising the epidemic prevention level of Qianfan City again."

After a short thought, Newcastle gave an affirmative response. He originally planned to find an opportunity to disclose some information about the epidemic to all walks of life in order to attract widespread attention and avoid confusion when the time comes. Knead it into a ball and throw it into the trash can, and then said,

"Before the press conference, I will let the epidemic prevention department transfer several patients in the name of epidemic observation. Mr. Lecter, you should understand that at present we have no cure, and severe patients may die at any time. Certainly. I want to know why."

"Sorry, Newcastle Deputy Director, I'm just a messenger, it's really hard to explain, but next time Mr. Rona contacts me, maybe I can ask for you?"

While watching the religious program in the window, Zhu Jue still didn't want to explain. He is a spokesman for honesty, and he can't disclose information about his employer at will.

Even if the employer is himself.

Newcastle didn't mean to embarrass Zhu Jue, after all, in his eyes, Hannibal Lecter was really a messenger, so he could only temporarily suppress his curiosity.

Hanging up the phone, Zhu Jue looked back at the TV screen in the window. This talk show mentioned a lot of interesting information, and there seemed to be a lot of "awakened people" who could see illusions. I thought I had to find someone if I had a chance. Ask and turn around and walk into the shop.

Said it was a religious supplies store, but Zhu Juefu was taken aback when he entered.

On the left and right sides of the store door, there are dolls with mechanical structures, which are roughly in the image of "heavenly soldiers and generals". The eyes are filled with small lights, and the light is bright red. The iron crowns are all holding the iron mace in the left hand, posing an independent posture of a golden rooster, while the right hand is stretched forward, the index finger and middle finger are close together, because there is a table under the feet as a cushion, all four fingers are poking at Zhu Jue The location of the temples.

It seems that the next second the person who enters the store will be full of peach blossoms, which makes people look a little weird.

There is not much space in the store, and it can barely accommodate a few rows of shelves, ranging from crosses as large as half a person to Buddha statues as small as palms.

The open space next to the wall is also utilized, and several wooden windows are spliced ​​together, which are specially used for displaying various small objects.

"I didn't find similar items in the store, but Ginkgo found a picture of a lantern in a book."

Suzi noticed that Zhu Jue had entered the door, and came forward to meet her. While talking, she turned sideways, revealing Gu Yinxing, who was holding a religious book and flipping through the shelves behind her.

That is her spiritual world. Although she can create items through self-imagination, it is not a dream after all. It is unrealistic to imagine out of thin air. If she wants not to wear clothes, she must be familiar with the details of all aspects of camouflage in advance. It is best to have a clear reference.

"Newcastle has promised to help us issue an 'operation order', the specific release time should be 3 pm, so we have to prepare as soon as possible, at least before dinner, because I just found a Chinese restaurant on the Internet, their I like the braised soft-shelled turtle very much!"

The two people who informed them of the situation, the so-called "action order", that is, the announcement to be issued by Newcastle himself, was naturally for the members of the Ouroboros organization to read.

With the help of Gu Gingko, the biggest gain in entering the Gadamon Illusion is undoubtedly the discovery of the Bone Tree in the Illusion and the interaction between the members of the Ouroboros organization and it.

The cultists feed the Bone Tree with the souls of infected people as fertilizer or energy to make it affect the real world, which means they need a lot of souls.

If Zhu Jue wants to find Gadamon's location, he will definitely not be able to do it by mistake. He must have a clear goal, and the bone tree is his opportunity.

On the premise that there will be a large number of severely infected people in the epidemic prevention center.

Zhu Jue is almost certain that under normal circumstances, cultists who hide from XZ in the Middle East in the real world will undoubtedly "strike hard" under the shelter of Gadamon's illusion.

All he has to do is sit on the sidelines and try to find a way to extract valuable information from them.

On the premise of knowing what they want to do and how they are going to do it, it is not difficult. The key is whether he can play the "stake" well!
And it depends on whether Gu Ginkgo, the "Props Master", can work hard.

"Can pictures be copied?"

Zhu Jue leaned over and glanced at the page in Gu Ginkgo's hand. There was only one illustration and a description in a few words on it, and he couldn't help asking.

"I don't know either. It might be much better if there is an actual reference."

Kneading the center of her brows, Gu Yinxing resisted the mental discomfort, relying on moonlight wine and incense, her mental state has actually recovered a lot, but there are only some sequelae.

"The actual reference, you wait."

Zhu Jue looked around the shelves around him, then quickly walked to the counter near the door and knocked on the table.

"God bless you, what do you want?"

An old man sat behind the counter and asked after hearing the sound.

His attire is very exaggerated, yes, Zhu Jue thinks this word is tailor-made for him.

A white turban is wrapped around his head, and a rosary is held in his right hand, but a cross necklace is hung around his neck. If you look carefully, you can find that there seems to be a colorful bead string behind the cross. He is wearing a gray cotton robe. In front of him is the Taoist scripture with the Bagua picture printed on the cover.

"You're really busy, don't you usually spend a lot of time praying?"

Zhu Jue stared at his "avant-garde" appearance for a while, and said with a strange expression.

"Prayer? I don't pray. Oh, you mean my clothes. I need to eat. I can't help it. I wear it like this. Do you feel closer? My child, may the light shine on your way forward .”

The index finger was bent on the forehead and paused for two seconds, and then he made a decent religious gesture in front of his chest. Seeing that Zhu Jue didn't respond, he subconsciously stroked his beard, then changed his posture, and turned his head to pick out the whisk placed behind him.

"Stop, I'm not a believer, so I'll save this one. I want to ask if you have the tools and materials to make a lantern. It's a lantern like this."

Take the illustrations on the pages to the old man.

"I do have tools. This is a grocery store, but what about materials? If you can afford the money, just dismantle the things on the shelves and use them."

The old man is also a cheerful person, pointing to the shelf behind Zhu Jue and said.

A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem!
Taking advantage of the time before 3 p.m., Suzi and Gu Yinxing began to hand-craft the lanterns in the illustrations with the help of items in the store.

Zhu Jue then approached this store manager named Gattuso. With his exaggerated attire, he was obviously an old fritters, and he also ran a religious supplies store. He probably had a lot of contacts with believers.
