After making the necessary preparations, Fanning stood up and opened the door.

He came to an office with an open door next to him, and knocked on the door twice with "Bang Bang".

The two police officers working inside looked at him, and then got up immediately.

"Coffee, slightly more than half." Fanning spat out a few words.

"Wait a minute, sir." A man stood up and walked quickly, taking the large glass bottle in his hand.

Commander, this cup is a bit big. It drank more than I did. It was a retro wide-mouth cork. He took a brief look at the bottle, then walked to the hand grinder, and began to prepare it according to Vassius' taste.

"Thank you." Fan Ning took it a minute later, turned around, and saw two police officers holding a large stack of documents standing at the door, smiling respectfully at him.

"Let's sign together next time."

"Boss, the longest one has been on hold for eight days."

"You can also find a chance to ask Aletov to sign on your behalf." Fan Ning passed by them expressionlessly.

In the series of "OK, ok" responses behind him, he puffed on his coffee and took a sip, and walked straight to the end on the left.

There are three steam lifts there, go into the middle one, press -2 floor.

There was a high-pitched and sharp jet sound, and the elevator stopped on the -2 floor. This is still a normal office area. A cleaning staff passing by dragging a black garbage bag turned to look at himself.

Fanning continued to press and hold the -2 icon, so he continued to descend to the undisplayed floors.

The door opened, and the narrow and long steel underground passage was filled with dazzling white light. After two turns, he came to a cast iron explosion-proof door.

There are leisure facilities similar to the previous headquarters building, and there are also people on duty playing cards, but the location is in front of the door instead of behind the door.

"Sir, do you need to enter the sealing room now?" asked the gentleman with a cigarette in his hand.

Fan Ning gave an indifferent "hmm".

"Your case needs to be registered, sir."

The gentleman held the cigarette in his mouth, arranged the ledger and papers, and looked ready to take serious records.

"I need to make sure that the haunted umbrella is still alive." Fanning chose a mysterious incident that Vassius had handled in June as an excuse.

The staff on duty quickly wrote down the pen tip. After closing the ledger, he walked to the mechanical safe on the side of the wall, bent over and took out a flat black wooden box.

There are more than a dozen small cylindrical objects wrapped in brown rubber. Judging from the positions of the grooves arranged horizontally and vertically, this seems to be a consumable, and the remaining pieces are only half.

The gentleman with a cigarette in his mouth took out one of them, held a pair of tweezers in each hand, and carefully cooperated to tear off the brown rubber covering the outside.

Inside is a glass vessel shaped like an hourglass, with relatively separated containers at both ends, and a narrow connection opening that seems broken but not connected in the middle. The whole device is hooped by a small, complicated, dark hollowed out bracket with a weird texture.

Fan Ning calmly stretched out his arms and rolled up his sleeves.

When this strange vessel was held by tweezers and one end was close to Fanning's skin, those complicated hollow brackets began to wriggle like tentacles, and a sucker-like thing was directly attached to Fanning's arm.

This is an extraordinary item made by the Special Inspection Office with special moving substances and trace spirits. According to the information Fanning learned from the management system of the sealing room, their internal name can be literally translated as "two friend".

...

By comparing the blood samples before and after the subjects entered and exited the sealed chamber, it can be used to detect the changes in the contamination they received within a certain period of time.

The sucker was wriggling, and there was a slight tingling sensation, and the end of the glass "funnel" was gradually filled with Fanning's blood.

After temporarily storing the "two friends" aside, the officer on duty said: "Sir, according to the management method that Mr. Salman and you have set together, we need to check your belongings when entering and leaving. For items that need to be brought in or taken out temporarily, please tell me, and I will register for you."

"No." After Fanning took two sips of coffee, he stretched out his arms to signal him to check.

The duty officer showed his dedication in front of his boss, and then he opened the swing-type cast iron explosion-proof door, made a gesture of invitation, and reminded him friendly: "Sir, the current time is [-]:[-] pm."

Fan Ning responded lightly and stepped in.

"Ang——" "Kangdang."

The high-pitched and sharp sound of steam dragged on for a long time, accompanied by the sound of the heavy cast iron door closing.

"As expected of you, sir, you can drink coffee leisurely after you go to the sealing room." The officer on duty said with a sigh.

"To be honest, every time there is a task that requires entering the sealed room, I have been unable to sleep since the night before." Another investigator who had just returned to the card table shrugged.

The sealed rooms of each county branch housed all kinds of weird objects produced by a huge city in mysterious events over the years, which accumulated to a huge amount.

As for the sealed room of the headquarters, it's just that the contained items have a higher personality and are more dangerous, and the number of them is not as good as that of the branches.

Extraordinary items whose characteristics have been clarified, suspicious but temporarily incomprehensible objects, abnormal tissue or organ samples, books with taboo content, and ritual objects used internally. A batch of weird objects that are purely dangerous, but have no use value, should be destroyed as much as possible, otherwise the venue would have been full.

According to the principle of the law of entanglement in the secret history, if different Extraordinary items are more scattered, the probability of accidental and complicated events will be smaller, but the authorities do not have the hardware and manpower to build sealing rooms everywhere, and various official organizations can separate them in units of counties. It's not easy anymore.

Centralizing the management of the sealing room, the risk control of Extraordinary items is still far better than letting them spread uncontrollably among the people.

Fanning felt that the temperature in the sealing room was a bit cold, and the field of vision was narrow and lengthy. All he could see were the monotonous whitewashed walls and the abrupt and dazzling white light of carbonized lamps.

"Hey--" "Gulu--"

On the ceiling above the head, there are dense metal pipes and electric control hubs exposed, and the background noise of liquid flow or current noise is heard from time to time, which is very obvious in an overly quiet environment.

The voltage also seems to be a little unstable, and the carbonization lamp will flicker slightly every few seconds.
Fanning's spiritual sense found that there were extremely subtle and complex phase disturbances in this area.

Although he has been promoted to a high position, the psychological hint of "danger, be careful, and hurry up" is constantly emerging in the depths of spirituality.

...

He even felt a vague and ubiquitous "oppressive feeling" or "shaking feeling" in the air, as if something would suddenly rush out of the corners of his vision in the next moment.

Fanning now has twenty minutes.

Or he'd better fix it in twenty minutes.

Because the Extraordinary factors in the sealed room are too dense and complicated, it is difficult for those who have knowledge to stay in it for too long, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be affected. If it is a direct physical or spiritual injury, it can be dealt with immediately. Pollution is imperceptible. Everyone who comes here hopes to complete the task and retreat quickly.

In order to objectively evaluate the risk of investigators being exposed to pollution, the Special Inspection Office has internally divided a set of risk duration levels for detention:

Exposure within [-] minutes is a general pollution risk;
Exposure exceeding [-] minutes but within one hour is a greater risk of contamination;

Exposure of more than one hour is a significant contamination risk.

Regardless of whether the length of stay is within the estimate or exceeds the estimate, it will be determined according to the actual entry and exit time.

This setting is not long, because the main function of the sealing room is to store or retrieve things. If it exceeds [-] minutes, it is either to retrieve dangerous items, or there is some small accident. If it exceeds an hour, it must be encountered. What a big deal.This is the experience summed up from a large sample of disorientation or distortion accidents.

Therefore, the entry and exit records of general pollution risks only need to be registered internally. Such records account for 90%, and the superiors will only conduct spot checks from time to time, while the records of relatively large or serious pollution risks must be reported to the headquarters for notification.

Although the latter is still within the scope of normal work, if possible, Fanning does not want Vassius to add an entry and exit record in the headquarters out of thin air.

On the wall on his left hand is an enlarged version of the floor plan, and under his feet are the stairs that continue to extend downwards. At a glance, he can see several warning signs drawn by the steps.

On the right-hand side, there are passages at intervals of height. The deeper the passage is, the more dangerous the contents are.

The source of the sense of danger in Fanning's spiritual sense also mainly comes from the direction deep in the steps.

Fortunately, Fan Ning didn't need to go deep, because his mobile phone was a "suspicious but undiscovered" weird object, and it was stored at the shallowest level, so it couldn't even be said to contain it.

Go down a few steps and turn right to the first passage. The corridor inside looks a bit like a piano room in a school, with a set of opposing rooms every few meters on both sides.

Fan Ning strode directly inside and pushed open an unnumbered horizontal sliding door between No. 9 and No. 10.

This is a rest room and buffer room, equipped with passages on each floor, it can not only be locked and unlocked from the outside like other doors, but can also be locked from the inside.

The room is equipped with facilities such as telephone, folding bed, washstand, flush toilet, and food storage cabinet. If you encounter sudden danger, fleeing here to call for help can win a glimmer of hope.

Fanning opened the toilet lid, poured out the coffee in the drift bottle, rinsed it with water, and then he gestured with the bottle and the hole in the toilet.

"Sure enough, this bottle won't be able to be put in the toilet and be taken away." Fanning walked out of the buffer room immediately.

...

Even if it is forced to go in, I am afraid it will be crushed.

However, he didn't need to dismantle the toilet because there was a destruction room in the inner part of the corridor on each floor.

This side is only used to collect domestic sewage, and a sewage collection pool is specially set up in the destruction room for dumping Extraordinary item residues, ashes, or biological tissue fluids.

Fanning then went to Room 15.

The storage methods of objects on this floor are relatively simple and homogeneous. There are more than a dozen items in one room, and Fan Ning quickly found the target locker with his name and a brief description of the event on the label.

The key of each locker is inserted in the lock, which is equivalent to just a handle, and he holds and twists it to pull the locker open.

"Empty?" Fanning's eyes widened.

Right?According to the information I had in Vassius's office before, the suspicious items confiscated by the Special Inspection Office in the previous series of mysterious incidents at Saint Lenia University were all placed in this room.

His name was written in black and white on the label.

Fan Ning then found the locker next to it with the label of Anton Conor, and found the basic occult literature of the metaphorical dream control method "Sound Flow, Texture and Dreamland".

He didn't plan to take other things away, adding trouble without a clear need, but it can be confirmed that this is here.

Next to it was another tag of Anton Conor, whose name was crossed out and another strange name was written on it. After Fanning pulled it away, he saw a gorgeous butterfly in amber.

It stands to reason that this should be the original fragment of the audio sequence before, but due to a series of human deaths, its control level was raised and moved to a deeper level below, so another strange object was replaced.

"Transfer. Transfer control level" Fan Ning pondered for a few seconds.

Could it be that his mobile phone was also transferred away?
There is indeed such a possibility, because the statistical date of the paper documents he saw in Vassius's office is as of June 6th. There is no electronic carrier in this era, and it is impossible for the Special Inspection Office to update in real time.

"By the way, look at the management ledger." Fan Ning's eyes lit up.

Running out of time, he started rummaging around and found a notepad and pen in an unlabeled compartment in the corner.

Fan Ning quickly flipped through the pages.

It does record a lot of transfers of contained objects back and forth, both lowering and increasing the control level, and the reasons for the records are different: if a new related vicious event occurs, if the investigation fails due to mysterious characteristics, if in the Relevant records have been verified in mysterious documents.

Soon, Fanning found his account.

This item was directly referred to as a "flashlight" by the Special Patrol Office, and it was described as a personal search item of the survivor of the mysterious incident at the University of Santa Maria, Carlone Van Ning. room number.

The time was at 8:17 am on August 7th, but the reason was not described in detail, but simply and rudely stated that Rudolph Homon requested!
Just moved away a few days ago?Fanning couldn't help frowning.

On August 8, I participated in the United Dreams meeting of the Special Patrol Office. At the meeting, He Meng gave a high evaluation of his promotion potential in front of Poglirich. Then in the afternoon, he performed "Gothenburg Variations". Could it be because these reasons?
If you want to develop your artistic career in this world, if you want to get on the right track, you will definitely enter the field of vision of the discussion group.It is a more realistic way to have a higher level of "ge" in order to gain greater voice in front of the Special Patrol Office. An extremely conceited leader like Poglerich simply does not look down on other people's mysterious side strength.

However, the B-level sealed room is already the branch's highest level of control over the contained items. The original location here is not even considered a D-level.

About ten minutes have passed.

Fan Ning didn't stop. After calming down a little, he returned the messy objects to their original positions, then went out and turned around.

It was just a small accident. Even if this phone was put in the corridor where the A-level sealing room was located, it was only because the Special Inspection Office had raised the expectation that "there might be a big problem". The essential attributes have not changed.

Isn't it just going through another corridor again?
No problem, hurry up.
