Chapter 23 The mysterious disappearance
The chat channel was flooded with “?”

Everyone thought they heard wrong.

It’s only been a few days, and you can go home already?
Ning Jun immediately sent a message to Xiao Qichen, "Is this true?"

Can they really return to the real world?
She cheered, but there was a voice in her heart telling her.

This is not right, there is something wrong!

Xiao Qichen's reaction was different from everyone else's.

There was no trace of a smile on his face, instead it looked even heavier.

Obviously, it's not like that
In the previous life, the people from Blue Star entered the game together, but because they knew nothing, many people died in the first few days.

He survived until the late stages of the game and learned that the survival game had been tested in beta.

He was one of the top 50 masters who had no worries about food and drink, but ended up committing suicide.

Before he died, he wrote a long message on the World Channel.

Among them, the internal test was mentioned.

Most of Xiao Qichen's information about the internal test came from this person.

But those players who participated in the internal beta test were almost seamlessly transitioned to the public beta test and had no chance to go home at all.

What's wrong?
How could there be such a big deviation?

Xiao Qichen couldn't think of anything for a moment.

But he heard clearly what the game officials said.

"Officials will not lie."

This is something everyone knew in the previous life.

Ning Jun's heart started pounding when he heard this.

"So, we can really return to reality?"

Did she really have a chance to say goodbye to her grandfather?

Xiao Qichen's thoughts were extremely clear at this moment.

“Not everyone can go back.”

He remembered clearly that the official said "some players can go home."

This means that not everyone can return to reality.

“It should be conditional.”

Just as Xiao Qichen guessed, soon, all the players' panels popped up automatically, and a list appeared.

There are only five numbers on it.

"666, 356, 12, 244, 98"

Ning Jun was selected, but Xiao Qichen was not.

Player 356 is the European Emperor that everyone is familiar with.

The other three are rarely seen in the chat channel, and no one knows who they are.

"Was this a random selection?" Ning Jun was puzzled. Otherwise, how could she explain why she was chosen but Xiao Qichen was not?

Xiao Qichen didn't know either. "There must be special conditions. It might be related to the supplies the player has."

His supplies were all with Ning Yun, so he was not selected.

But Ning Yun ranked first.

They are speculating here, and players in the chat channel also have a lot of speculation.

[What do you mean, only five people can go back, what about us? ]

[No, I found that this game discriminates against non-Africans. Why is 356 also here?]

[That's right, @game official, I request a re-draw! ]

@Player356, Boss, when you return to reality, can you help me deliver a letter to my parents? My home is in Unit 2, Building 5, Wenboyuan Community, Wutong City, Room 301.

[@Player356, Boss, please also pass on a message for me. My home is here.]

【@player356】

Perhaps it was because Ouhuang 356 was quite active in the chat channel, and many people looked for him, hoping that he would report to his family that he was safe.

His chat channel was also flooded with messages.

He had no choice but to speak in the chat channel.

[There are too many people, I can't remember them all. Sisters and brothers, please don't send messages, I really can't keep up.]

After he said that, the others turned to look for the other four people. Ning Yun's friend's message almost dazzled her.

Fortunately, she won't have to worry about it soon.

Because a countdown appeared in front of her.

"10, 9, 8"

What is this countdown?
Could it be that he was sending her back to reality so quickly?

There was no time to think, the countdown quickly reached "0!"

Ning Jun saw a flash of white light and immediately lost all consciousness.

In a trance, she seemed to hear a voice.

"3 days later, the game will be officially launched~"

Xiao Qichen sent her a message, but it was rejected.

It says, "The player is in a special area, please send again later."

-

And at this moment, in Blue Star, China, City X Public Security Bureau.

Cheng Minghui had a headache. Five days ago, their public security bureau received two missing persons cases.

This type of case is not particularly difficult for them.

Especially now there are so many cameras and there is also the Sky Eye.

As long as the missing person is not in a remote rural area, he or she can usually be found.

But what is strange is that in these two missing cases, the missing persons were young people, a man and a woman.

The time of disappearance is almost the same.

Neither the Sky Eye nor the camera captured anything.

Especially the missing woman, Ren Keke, who shared a house with another girl and had two cats.

There is a camera in their living room, which is used specifically to monitor cats.

The person who reported the case was the girl who shared the apartment with him.

"Ren Keke and I have been sharing a house for over a year. She has a good temper and we get along very well. Sometimes, we even eat together in the living room."

"That night, we had dinner together and then went back to our own rooms. The next morning, I got up and went to work."

"When I got home again, I didn't see Ren Keke until evening!"

"Her door was unlocked. I knocked but no one answered. I pushed the door open and no one was inside."

The police investigated Ren Keke's house and found no signs of struggle, nor any other people's footprints or fingerprints.

They also investigated the social relationships of the girl who shared the apartment with them and found that she did not associate with any suspicious persons and had no close male friends, so she could be temporarily ruled out as a suspect.

Most importantly, the police investigated the surveillance footage in Ren Keke's living room, which happened to show the door of her room.

Just as the girls said, they had dinner and went back to their rooms.

The next day, the girl went to work as usual, but Ren Keke's door was never opened again.

It was not until the girl came back at night that she realized something was wrong, went in to check and called the police.

"How could Ren Keke just disappear out of thin air? There was no surveillance footage nearby."

Cheng Minghui has been a policeman for several years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a strange case.

In addition to Ren Keke, another missing boy had a similar situation.

What’s even more bizarre is that such disappearances don’t just happen in City X.

Similar disappearances have occurred in every province and city across the country.

The missing persons are basically young men and women, and no whereabouts can be found through surveillance.

What bothered Cheng Minghui the most was that these strange disappearances were widely reported by the media and attracted widespread attention from the society.

Some people said that they were abducted by UFOs.

Some people also said that they were captured by a mysterious organization.

Due to the great pressure from public opinion, their superiors asked them to solve the case as soon as possible.

But Cheng Minghui had a hunch that these missing cases were not that simple.

Until a policeman suddenly pushed the door open and spoke loudly.

"Cheng Minghui, the missing boy is back. He's on his way to the police station now!"

Cheng Minghui didn't have time to push the stool away, he immediately stood up and rushed out!
