Chapter 30 New World

The strange incident in the parking lot was perfectly resolved, and Xu Xiaoqi brought Lin Jue and others out, and the remaining aftermath work was all handed over to Captain Wang.

"Go back and be safe."

Lin Jue waved to a few people, picked up a shared bicycle on the side of the road, and rode it home.

More than ten minutes later, he walked into the apartment building. As soon as he went up the stairs, he noticed something was wrong.

There is a foul smell in the building!
It's different from the weird smell of corruption, it's more like the fishy smell of a lot of sewer bugs gathered together.

Going up the stairs, the stench became stronger and stronger, as if it was coming from the third floor.

"Third floor? Isn't that my floor? Is someone raising bugs in the house?"

He frowned slightly, and when he stepped onto the last flight of stairs, he heard a slight sound of a door closing. The sound also came from the third floor.

"Is someone going home? But I didn't see anyone just now." Lin Jue stood at the door of the corridor and looked inside. There was no one in the corridor, and obviously no one came out.

"No one's going home, and no one's coming out, so why are we opening and closing the door at this hour?"

Lin Jue glanced at the time on his phone. It was almost one in the morning. The most likely scenario was that someone had left the door open and was observing something, and then closed the door after hearing him come upstairs.

The doors of all the rooms in the corridor were closed, so it was impossible to tell which room was closing its door just now.

When he reached his neighbor's door, he stopped again.

Bed bugs were constantly coming out of the gap between the door and the floor.

The bugs seemed to have sensed someone coming and quickly crawled in through the crack in the door.

"Is there a pile of garbage in this guy's house?" Lin Jue looked at the door of his neighbor's house and reached out to knock on it.

The door opened unexpectedly quickly. In less than three seconds, the door was opened a crack and the middle-aged man's head appeared.

As soon as I opened the door, a foul smell hit my nose.

When he saw that it was Lin Jue, the man's expression of faint expectation suddenly collapsed: "What are you doing?"

"The door opened so soon? This guy has been guarding the door the whole time? What is he expecting? It's like he's waiting for someone to knock on the door."

Lin Jue was puzzled and stepped on a crawling stink bug to death. He said with a smile, "Sir, you should pay attention to hygiene. So many bugs have crawled out of your house."

As he spoke, he stretched his head over and peeked inside through the crack in the door.

"It's none of your business!" the man cursed angrily and was about to close the door.

"Hey, don't be so angry." Lin Jue suddenly reached out and locked the door, his eyes fixed on the room behind the man: "As your neighbor, I'm just reminding you out of kindness."

The man tried hard to close the door, but it wouldn't budge. He could only grit his teeth and say word by word, "Let go! If you do this again, I'll call the police!"

Hearing this, Lin Jue let go of his hand, and the door slammed shut the next moment.

Looking at the closed door, Lin Jue's eyes were deep. Although the time was short, he still saw something.

There are many insect specimens hanging on the walls of the corridor in the room. Some of the insects even have strange characteristics, such as spiders with red wings and centipedes with two heads as long as a palm.

"Could this guy be an entomologist who loves studying strange insects? Am I overthinking this?"

Lin Jue stepped on another bedbug and killed it, then returned to his room.

……

The next day, as soon as he arrived at the Inspection Office, Lin Jue heard the sound of cursing coming from the office of the captain of the Firefly Squad next door.

There were all kinds of dirty words, and he could vaguely hear the captain yelling something like "get out if you do this again" next time.

"Xiao Qi, what's going on?" He put his bag on the table, a look of curiosity on his face. "It's about yesterday." Xu Xiao Qi didn't even look up from his gaze at the photo on the table. "You're the only one who believes what that guy said. He fled in such a desperate state, and we were there. The captain of the Firefly Squad must have felt embarrassed, so he started scolding Huang Yong this morning."

"Brother Hao, please help me go to the bottom row of the third filing cabinet in the clerical department and get me a file code-named X."

"Oh, okay, okay." Lin Jue took a look at the photos on Xu Xiaoqi's desk. They were all photos of strange corpses taken last night.

After walking through the corridor and arriving at the clerical department, Lin Jue came to the archives room under the guidance of others.

There are more than a dozen cabinets lined up in a row, but only the first three cabinets are full, and the rest of the cabinets only have a few scattered file boxes.

"The third cabinet... the last row."

Lin Jue squatted down and ran his fingers over the file boxes one by one. Each file box had a label on the side.

"Sanjiang Mingyuan Training School..."

"New world..."

"Codename X, found it."

He pulled out the file box and looked around.

He is the only one in the entire archive room. Now that he is an employee of the Audit Department, it should be no problem for him to look at the files.

He took out the file box of [Sanjiang Mingyuan Training School], opened the lid, and found only a thin document inside.

[Strange Event: Sanjiang Mingyuan Training School]

This was an off-campus training institution for middle and high school students during the winter and summer vacations. It disappeared during a heavy fog a month ago. It is speculated that it is hidden in the fog.

Death toll: Unknown

[Danger level: unknown]

There are two more lines of text below.

[Seven days after Chen Fu of the Night Ghost Team disappeared from school, they entered the fog to search for him, but to no avail.]

[Ten days after the disappearance of Zhuang Kai from the school, the Zhenhai team went into the fog to search for him, but to no avail.]

This concludes the file.

The whole school disappeared in the fog?

Lin Jue's eyes moved slightly, and he opened the file box named [New World].

[Mysterious Organization: New World]

[Special organization, whose members are suspected to be suffering from the aftereffects of severe pollution. Most of them are irritable, bloodthirsty, and insane. They have artificially created many strange events.]

[The number of members is unknown, three people have been arrested so far]

Sufferers of severe pollution sequelae? This meant that this so-called New World Organization was filled with people who had illuminated the spiritual realm? But their personalities had changed drastically, and they were filled with negative energy?
Also, can strange events be artificially created?
Lin Jue continued to flip through the pages and found several confessions at the back, which should belong to the three members who were arrested.

[Confession 1: The world is turbid, dilapidated, and unsightly. The fog brings cleansing, and pollution is a beacon. One day, the whole world will be as clean as a mirror...]

[Confession 2: The strong prey on the weak, and the winner is king. The new world will be absolutely fair, provided you possess the strength of a king...]

[Confession 3: The so-called flesh is merely a carrier of the spirit. Evolution is unstoppable. Your Inspection Department is merely a stumbling block to world change. In the future, fog will envelop the entire land, and a new world will dawn...]

These confessions look crazy. Just from the mental state of these people, we can see what the entire New World Organization is like.

Not only do they not resist the fog, they even actively embrace it.
