Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 23 Transparent World
After an unknown amount of time, Shang Liang broke the silence: "The whole thread of the incident is actually not difficult to piece together. The antimeme attacked the execution squad and protected Xia Shou.

The trainer should have killed Xia Shou, but didn't, which might have been due to its interference.

Furthermore, since the abnormal level of this antimeme is higher than Yun Xi's, it is very likely that it solved the blood demon."

The colonel added: "This also explains why 678 gave up halfway. It should also be due to the interference of the antimemetic creature. The fact that 678 was unable to give any explanation is due to the characteristics of the antimemetic ability."

Lin Yanxue nodded slightly: "Dr. Modice also thinks so, and the current tentative conclusion is this. This existence with an unknown identity is tentatively named [Transparent Human], numbered 23-857.

It killed Blood Demon for some reason, and for some reason, it protected Level 678 employee Xia Shou from and the firing squad, and that's all we know for now."

"So, you called us here as part of the observation and research, right?" the colonel asked calmly.

"Dr. Modice wants to observe whether this indirect speculation will be axiomatized over time. You two are the highest-level finishers who can act freely and are the best experimental subjects." Lin Yanxue acknowledged the other party's speculation.

"Hahaha! I've been treated as a guinea pig." Shang Liang pressed his forehead and chuckled.

“Of course, I’m telling you this not just for testing.

Although the abnormality of the Blood Demon House has dissipated, the Blood Demon incident cannot be said to be over. In fact, some very special events have occurred recently, which are about a special insomnia whose incidence has suddenly increased sharply among ordinary people in recent months.

At first, the Intelligence Department did not think that this was related to the Blood Demon's House, but just now, after the investigation team entered the Blood Demon's House and collected photos of the abnormal space in the house, they found that the scenes dreamed of by those insomniacs after falling asleep were surprisingly similar to the scenes in that house.

So this abnormal incident has not actually been completely resolved.

According to current intelligence, the Invisible Man has overwhelming strength against the Blood Demon, and he seems to have a special desire to protect Xia Shou, so after discussing with the Scepter Council, the deputy director decided to let Xia Shou take over this continuation mission.

Allowing Xia Shou to participate deeply in this extended mission will help the Control Bureau discover more detailed intelligence about the abnormal entity [Transparent Human]. Maybe we can control it through indirect means.

After all, it has been confirmed that the antimemetic power of the anomaly is only effective on humans, and as an anomaly, 678 should be able to communicate with the transparent human world. "Lin Yanxue explained.

Shang Liang stretched and stood up from his seat: "Dr. Modice should have thought of it, right? Since this invisible person favors that first-level employee, does Minister Shangguan, who sent this employee, know more?"

Shangguan Yan tucked her hair behind her ears and smiled, "I only know a little more."

"Then it's better to let Miss Shangguan handle this matter first. I really have no interest in it. I suddenly remembered that the supermarket is having a special sale today, so I have to leave first."

After saying that, Shang Liang waved his hand, and his figure disappeared out of thin air in the conference room.

The colonel at the side tugged at his military uniform and stood up with the help of his iron cane: "If everything is fine, then I should leave. In my opinion, there is no need for us to take action in this matter."

"That's it for now. Take care." Lin Yanxue nodded politely and said goodbye.

The colonel nodded very gentlemanly and walked towards the door of the meeting room.

When they reached the door, the colonel suddenly stopped and said, "By the way, Edward's life lamp is still on, but we can't find Edward. Isn't it a bit strange?"

Lin Yanxue said admiringly: "You have thought it through very carefully. Dr. Modice has also thought of this, but there is a logical loophole in this assumption. If Edward is the antimeme creature, then why didn't he kill the blood demon until today?"

"Maybe there is a reason? Haha." The colonel let out a few hoarse laughs, turned and walked out of the room.

The door of the conference room closed again. Lin Yanxue let out a long sigh and looked at Shangguan Yan beside her.

"Minister Shangguan, could you please take me back to your office?" "My pleasure." Shangguan Yan picked up the tray steadily and walked out.

Soon, everyone left and the conference room became empty again.

At the empty conference table, Su Weiyu, who had listened to the entire discussion, finally stood up and turned to walk out.

……

……

"What's the situation?" Xia Shou asked Su Weiyu who had just walked in.

“Their idea is this…”

Su Weiyu spent ten minutes briefly recounting the contents of the entire meeting.

After listening to this, Xia Shou realized that the senior management of the Control Bureau had completely misjudged the truth behind this incident.

They attributed the credit of killing the Blood Demon to Su Weiyu, and did not think that he had the ability to kill the Blood Demon. This was good news for Xia Shou, as at least it would not attract undue attention in the future.

But Xia Shou understood why they were wrong. After all, one was an unobservable anti-memetic creature, and the other was a first-level employee who looked extremely ordinary no matter how he looked at him. Putting the two together, anyone would think that it was the former who killed the Blood Demon.

"But it's quite strange that Edward was not found." Xia Shou said thoughtfully.

Edward's life lamp was still on, which meant he was still alive, but he was not in the Blood Demon's House. Where did he go?
Could it be that there was actually another way to leave the Blood Demon's House, and Edward had already escaped, but just never returned to the Control Bureau?

Weird... Really too weird...

At this time, the door of the detention room opened again, and the uncle who had escorted him before stood outside the door and said to him: "Xia Shou, you can go back to the dormitory now. You have worked hard."

Xia Shou stood up and walked out of the detention room. The museum was silent. Only the overtime employees of the Control Bureau were walking back and forth in the aisle with a look of sudden death on their faces. It was four o'clock in the morning and the sky was already turning pale.

"No, I have to go back to sleep." Xia Shou yawned and felt sleepy.

Su Weiyu patted Xia Shou on the shoulder: "Wish you a good dream, I also have to go back to pack some things, see you tomorrow!"

"Okay, see you later." Xia Shou waved goodbye to Su Weiyu and returned to the dormitory alone.

He took off his shoes with difficulty and climbed into bed. He fell asleep before his head touched the pillow.

The moment he closed his eyes, Xia Shou's brain became clear instantly, just like last time, the heavy sleepiness disappeared instantly, as if he had just woken up after a high-quality sleep.

Have you entered that strange dream again?

Xia Shou opened his eyes.

But this time, the surroundings were no longer the pitch-black deep sea, but a shallow azure sea. Schools of fish with black and white stripes swam around the red coral reefs. In the distance, transparent jellyfish emitted a pink glow. Cleaner shrimps crawled in the crevices of the reefs, and the dim skylight fluctuated in the sea water.

There was still a ruler next to Xia Shou, with only 30 meters marked on it!
