Chapter 32 Seeking the initiative [two-in-one]

Qi Ming was originally quite nervous when she saw her boss getting angry.

But when they got out of the elevator, walked back to the witness room and closed the door...

Seeing the calm, calm and gentle look of his boss Wang, Qi Ming was really a little unable to recover.

"Huh? What's wrong with you, Xiao Qi?"

Wang Ze glanced at Qi Ming and said warmly: "Go and rest. Just sleep until you wake up naturally tomorrow. I've been tormenting you for the past two days."

"Okay, boss, go to bed early."

Qi Ming turned around and left obediently.

When she closed the door, she was wondering if Wang Ze was mad at the unscrupulous capitalists from her home planet, when she suddenly heard humming from behind.

Well, it's a little off-key, but it still sounds pretty good.

After making sure that her boss was in a good mood, Qi Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly she felt a little dizzy and dragged her tired body to the witness room next door.

A few minutes later, two young police officers arrived with stools and stood guard in front of Wang Ze's door.

——He Chou is still worried about Wang Ze’s safety.

Outside the door, two police officers held their own Internet terminals and browsed dark red websites and forums. They exchanged opinions on the current public opinion situation from time to time. They strictly abided by the department's confidentiality discipline and did not make any noise on the Internet. .

Inside the door, Wang Ze was holding a cup of cold tea, sitting in front of the unfolded projection screen, and quickly browsing the same page.

In the next room, Qi Ming yawned profusely and entered the bathroom holding a bath skirt, while his brain was reluctantly reviewing the entire incident.

A conference room somewhere on the ground floor of the same building.

Lin Weilin glanced at the list of work items and confirmed that all the items were marked with green marks. Her slender body huddled on the sofa. After a while, her breathing became even.

The lights in the conference room gradually dimmed.

The assistants on shift adjusted the projection screen to other directions, continued to monitor public opinion on the entire network, and issued action instructions to the larger team in the distance.

Everything is running as normal.

Public opinion was slipping according to the curve they had calculated urgently.

After all, there are many things in this world, and many people die every day.

Although a serial murder case that threatens the network environment will indeed have a greater impact on the home planet that has been peaceful for a long time;

But there is a lot of news happening at the same time;

Using rich information to divert public attention has become a basic skill in the public relations industry.

……

In the corridor outside the side door of the dispatch hall, several figures were smoking near the window. They were all 'old men' in the police station.

"Old He, Wang Ze is really angry?"

"How can that be impossible," He Chou muttered, "I have known him for so many years and I have never seen him angry. It was clearly just for Wei Xing to see. He probably felt that he was too passive and didn't want to be led by ghosts. Walking on the nose, jumped out on purpose.”

"Indeed, there is not much room for him to play in this case."

"Who the hell is that ghost? He is causing trouble with banned brain-simulating technology. The defense force has not even let out a fart, so we ordinary police forces are left to handle it!"

"There are people above who don't like Wei Xing."

He Qiu shook his head and exhaled softly: "I feel a little uneasy."

"What's wrong?"

"Old Wang must have discovered something, but he is too passive now, so he chose to remain silent, but he reminded me before..."

He Qiu looked a little solemn:

"You see, regarding the Wen Quan case, the ghost design is very detailed. Even if Lin Xiaoxia hadn't spoken and a piece of cake had revealed flaws, we would have been unable to verify whether each piece of evidence was credible.

"But Zhang Lishan's side... is very rough.

"In the black box game, Zhang Li was attacked by a ghost and his heart was crushed in the air. In reality, Zhang Li died tragically in a public place wearing a helmet.

"Due to the previous fermentation of Wen Quan's case, Wei Xing Public Relations deleted posts on a large scale. Netizens, especially Liming Street users, have become very sensitive. Now that Zhang Li's case has come out, it has directly aroused public opinion.

"What time is it? I've never seen a post get more than 120,000 replies within half an hour.

"From the perspective of the criminal, Zhang Li's case was too crude and rough, and even left doubts that even a fool could figure out - Zhang Li changed his usual habit of finding a seat and abnormally chose the modified helmet.

"But in terms of arousing public opinion, Zhang Li's case is more disseminating and provocative. It is much simpler than the secret room murder of the Wen family, and it is also easier to be accepted by the masses who do not have access to all the clues."< br>


After He Qiu said this, he touched his chin and muttered:

"I think this is a complete public opinion war against Weixing Group."

A colleague reminded: "Did you plan to say this at Wei Xing's press conference this morning?"

"Of course it's impossible to say this," He Qiu shook his head, "We are the police and public servants who protect the safety of citizens. We must follow principles, start everything from evidence, and obtain valid proofs to maintain the authority and authority of our police announcements. The purity of the police force.”

He Chou cursed again: "It's quite disgusting when you think about it. Lao Wang picked it out on purpose, and the whole mess was left to me."

"You haven't grasped such a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds? Lao He, you must be secretly happy in your heart! When there is a position on the top, you can just put oil on the soles of your feet and go up."

He Qiudan laughed twice, with a bit of depression in his eyes: "In this case, it will be enough if you don't demote me."

"Team He!"

A slightly anxious shout suddenly came from the dispatch room:

"The helmet inspection and monitoring results have been obtained!"

The police officers cheered up and rushed into the dispatch center like the wind.

……

The next day, 8:20 in the morning.

Wang Ze was awakened by intermittent knocking on the door.

He adjusted his dark blue fiber pajamas, picked up the cleaning spray and sprayed it into his mouth. After making sure that there was no possibility of being rude, he opened the door to his room.

The two police officers who had just changed their guard were sitting upright on either side of the door, like the stone beasts that guard the house in ancient oriental culture.

Qi Ming, who had dressed up a lot today, now stood in front of Wang Ze with a guilty conscience, fearing that her boss would take issue with her behavior that disturbed people's dreams.

Wang Ze frowned slightly when he saw Qi Ming.

It’s not because of anything else, it’s just...

Qi Ming wore a low ponytail and full bangs today. Her face with makeup looked a bit younger. She wore a small shirt that just covered her belly button, a plaid skirt, and pure white knee-length socks and The sneakers look like a female student who has not yet graduated.

Really not mature enough for an assistant.

"Come in."

Qi Ming breathed a sigh of relief and walked in cautiously.

"Don't close the door," Wang Ze reminded her.

"Okay boss," Qi Ming responded in a low voice, "There is urgent news here, so I knocked on the door and called you."

Wang Ze walked to the bed and made the bed skillfully.

"What news?"

"Captain He and the others had identified the suspect Zhang filed last night, but they failed to arrest him overnight."

Qi Ming quickly got into the mood, put her watch on the coffee table, sat in the corner with her legs together, and quickly turned on the projection screen.

A wanted poster appeared on the projection screen, which contained a full-length portrait of a middle-aged man.

This man looked elegant, wearing rimless glasses, with a square face, medium height, a beer belly and a Mediterranean hairstyle.

"His name is Gu Wanzhong. You may not be able to imagine his identity.

"He is a well-known scientist on the home planet. He is affiliated with a research institute under the Omir New Energy Group. He specializes in new anti-gravity materials. He is said to be a master in this field and has published many blockbuster papers. , he has the title of honorary professor in several relatively good universities on his home planet

"According to the surveillance video, after the helmet was repaired in the maintenance department, it was idle in the workshop for a period of time. A very fat staff member took the helmet away and put it on the transportation position three minutes later. After that, the helmet was not there anymore. Get out of surveillance again.

"Then, the police locked in on this staff member and traced them all the way. They found that he left the maintenance station an hour later, rode a hover motorcycle to an apartment complex mostly occupied by rentals, and then disappeared out of thin air.


"The police investigated the apartment building overnight and finally found a rental house, where they found silicone face masks and work clothes... Finally, after investigation and comparison of surveillance videos and inquiries from residents of the apartment building, they targeted on this person.”

Qi Ming licked her lips:

"A scientist is said to be a rich man. I really can't imagine that he would do such a thing, and it's even more exciting!"

Wang Ze blinked: "Awesome?"

"Ah, this means thrilling and exciting," Qi Ming gave up and whispered, "According to the videos, photos and other evidence found by the police at Gu Wanzhong's home, it has been confirmed.

"He is Kong Gu Feisha, the fourth member of the regular team who is as gentle as jade!"

Wang Ze nodded calmly. He walked to sit next to Qi Ming and carefully looked at the information Qi Ming brought.

There was no surprise at all.

However, Wang Ze really didn't expect that among his gentle and gentle teammates, there would be such a master-level person in a certain field.

Qi Ming whispered: "Boss, I feel like this guy is the mastermind behind the ghost."

Wang Ze asked back: "A person in charge behind the scenes, doing dangerous things that will inevitably be exposed by himself?"

"That's right," Qi Ming muttered, "Go and tamper with the helmet. No matter how meticulous the plan is, it is very easy to go wrong. Every corner of the entire home planet is shrouded in virtual enhanced equipment, and these equipment can be used for monitoring. .”

"Yeah," Wang Ze responded and read the information intently for a while.

After a few minutes.

Wang Ze asked: "He escaped?"

"Escaped, and is nowhere to be found. The surveillance cameras can't find any trace of him. It's like he disappeared from the world."

Wang Ze was silent again, sitting on the sofa and thinking quietly, and soon sighed.

"Boss, Weixing Group's press conference is about half an hour away."

Qi Ming whispered:

“The current public opinion situation on the Internet is a bit confusing.

"Last night at 2:30 a.m., there was a revelation that the ghost and the deceased were together, and their goal was to bring down the Wei Xing Group.

“But this revelation not only failed to gain traction, it also caused counter-effects.

“I don’t know who is behind the scenes. The whole network is so hot that I can’t suppress it. Not only on portals, but also if you enter some public chat rooms now, you can see jokes about ghosts.

“Also, ghost emoticons are starting to go viral!

"Some people even claimed that they were the next target of the ghost, and then they were taken away by the local police while live broadcasting."

Wang Zedao: "Has Ms. Lin contacted us?"

Qi Ming pursed her lips: "She came to see me in the morning and looked very bad. But I said, boss, you are still resting. She asked me to convey my apology to you, boss, and left by herself... It's really hard."


Wang Ze rubbed his neck. The pillow here made him a little uncomfortable.

"Is there any progress over there, Director Zhao?"

"Yes," Qi Ming said, "They have used a lot of computing power. They have searched the entire network dozens of times, but no trace of the ghost has been found... It stands to reason that the artificial brain requires a lot of computing power to maintain, and it must be Hosted on a large server.

"Boss, do we really not have to do anything?"

"Well," Wang Ze said with a smile, "I don't have much room for action in these cases, and the other party's purpose is not to tease the police, let alone provoke us.

"Or it can be said that all the current situations should be within the opponent's plan.

"Xiao Qi, can you calculate how long it took for Wen Quan's case from the time it was reported to when we made key progress?"

"Four days, five days!"

"How long did it take from the time the hijacking occurred to when we learned Zheng Wenzheng's identity?"

"One day!"

"How long did it take for Zhang to file the case from the time of the incident to identifying the key suspect?"

"Less than half a day!"

"That's right," Wang Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, "Have you noticed it? The interval between Wenrun Ruyu's regular teammate's identity being exposed has become more and more rapid, but Konggu Feisha still escaped calmly, indicating that all this is still planned by the opponent. Within.

"What does this mean?"

Qi Ming finally reacted: "Explanation...they must strike while the iron is hot?"

"Yes, they clearly know how terrifyingly these large groups, especially large groups like Wei Xing that span the fields of virtual reality, virtual reality, and virtual reality, control public opinion.

Wang Ze said calmly:

"The ghost side started the whole plan not when we found the key clues, but when the 'police station broke the news'.

"They used Wen Quan's case as a trigger. When sparks burned in the dark corners of Liming Street, they attracted groups of eyes. They took advantage of the dissatisfaction of weak individuals with strong collectives. In a few days, they spread the gunpowder packets across the entire network. Every corner.

“When the ‘police station revelations’ emerged, Wei Xing Group’s suppression of public opinion had the opposite effect, and a large number of people began to pay attention to the Liming Street murder case.

“At the same time, people’s right to know was violated by Wei Xing Group and they were offended by Wei Xing Group’s public relations behavior, which caused more dissatisfaction.

“In current online public opinion, are there many posts listing Wei Xing’s previous evil deeds?”

"Yes boss!"

Qi Ming was a little surprised. The boss hadn't gotten up and surfed at high intensity before?

She explained:

“Ninety percent of the voices now are condemning Weixing Group.

"Half of it is because of the panic caused by ghosts and Weixing Group's inability to protect the lives of users, and half of it is detailing Weixing Group's evil deeds."

Wang Ze smiled, crossed his legs habitually, and said calmly:

"Zhang Liken is the flash point of these dissatisfaction. The mastermind behind this plan must be a more powerful public relations expert than Lin Weilin.

"No matter what Wei Xing does now, it is wrong, but he cannot do nothing.

"But there is a problem that layout designers have to consider."

"What?" Qi Ming asked subconsciously.

"The heat of any news will pass, and the public opinion that explodes will eventually extinguish like exploding fireworks. Weixing Group only needs to wait, and the discussion on this matter will naturally disappear after a few days.

“This carnival to denounce Wei Xing can only last for one or two days.

"People's emotions are affected by endocrine, and brain excitement is also a physiological phenomenon.

"The organizers sacrificed several lives and can only produce limited stimulation to people. They must seize the time and launch a fatal attack on Wei Xing while Wei Xing cannot suppress public opinion.

"This is actually the main reason why I decided to get away temporarily last night."

Qi Ming pursed her lips and frowned, not knowing how to answer the question for a while.

She asked in a low voice: "Boss, what will happen next?"

"If the ghost is more aggressive, he may take the initiative to show up at the press conference," Wang Ze sighed softly, "Or, he may die in front of the public."

"The empty valley is flying with sand..."

Qi Ming lowered his head to think and heard Wang Ze's murmur again.

“It’s almost here, it’s already so soon before the ghost tells the truth.

"When I look at this matter, from a murder case to a public opinion war, the logic is completely smooth.

"Now I can be completely sure of one thing. The other party's attack must be when the traffic is at its highest, and even the ghost will build momentum in advance to attract attention."

Qi Ming looked at her boss and found that his eyes were full of light.

It seemed to be a desire, just like the ancient gladiators' desire for battle.

"Boss..."

Buzz!

Qi Ming's watch suddenly vibrated, and a message popped up automatically, but it was a voice message from He Qiu.

"Hurry up and tell your boss to get up and show him the Liming Street bulletin board!"

Bulletin board?

Wang Ze had some impressions of this. On the street of Liming Street in the virtual community, there were several bulletin boards about system updates and major news.

Web port login also has this interface.

Before he could reach out, Qi Ming had already moved quickly, found the largest interactive forum on the home planet, and clicked on the official homepage. The bulletin board was on the lower left side of the homepage.

And at this moment;

The bulletin board turned into pitch black, with black fireworks wrapped around the frame, and two lines of bloody characters inside:

‘News conference at nine o’clock;’

‘See you or see you. ’(End of this chapter)
