Chapter 35.2
“...All the information about the mysterious flower shop in the past month is here. Its appearance time is irregular, and it has been found in various provinces and cities in Yao Country. Moreover, we have also found news about the mysterious flower shop on foreign networks. It is preliminarily judged that the flower shop is in a special space, and as long as the customer meets the requirements, no matter where they are on the Blue Star, they have the opportunity to enter the flower shop.”
“...These are the surveillance videos collected from various places during this period. It is obvious that the target suddenly disappeared in the surveillance video, and then suddenly appeared in the original place after a period of time. It should have entered the special space where the flower shop is located.”
“...According to the big data analysis and screening, among those who are most likely to become customers of the flower shop, four people have been confirmed in this period of time, but when they encountered that flower shop, they did not notify us as agreed. Afterwards, they said that at that time, they were like being hypnotized, uncontrollably wanting to go into the flower shop to take a look, and completely forgot to notify us. But their minds were clear.”
“...At present, we have equipped all the remaining targets with USB drives, videotapes, recording pens, etc., to ensure that they can convey our intentions to the shopkeeper when they suddenly enter the flower shop.”
Just at this time, someone rushed into the meeting room.
“Good news, good news, just one minute ago, one of the devices we sent out, number 7231, suddenly lost its signal and disconnected. It is suspected that it may have been carried into the special space where the mysterious flower shop is located.”
The others immediately showed a look of surprise. “Quick, quick, quick, bring out the target information of number 7231!”
Soon, rows of detailed information appeared on the screen.
“Xu Feng’e, 55 years old, three years ago, when she took her six-year-old granddaughter out for a walk, the granddaughter was lost. For the past three years, she has been looking for her granddaughter everywhere. Because of self-blame and the blame of her whole family, she has some mental abnormalities... We persuaded her to carry those little things she didn’t understand with her, on the condition that we would do our best to mobilize all resources to help her find her lost granddaughter?”
After reading the detailed information of this old woman, everyone present couldn’t help but sigh for her, and Liu Ningshuang even sincerely said, “I hope that flower shop is really as magical as the legend says, at least it can reunite this old woman’s family.”
“We, the police, will also do our best to find people!”
Although he had already left the original Yuanyang City Police Station, Li Fufeng, who couldn’t change his habits for a while, spoke up next.
The others also nodded in agreement.
“Anyway, this time we finally have a breakthrough in the supernatural event of the mysterious flower shop. As soon as people come out of the flower shop, we must invite them over as soon as possible!”
“...This might be our first time dealing with an extraordinary being in a proper manner, even if it’s just a remote communication. At least it’s a good start.”
Because they were worried about leaks, the USB drives and other items they asked the targets to hand over to the flower shop owner did not mention any supernatural events, just a normal video. A video conveying friendly information from the Supernatural Affairs Investigation Bureau.
They probably praised the shop owner’s good deeds, and at the end of the video, this diplomat, who was selected from many colleagues, was said to be proficient in psychology, micro-expressions, and had a high affinity, speaking as if he was a spring breeze.
–“You have been of great help to the people of Yao Country, and we are truly grateful. If possible, we hope to have the opportunity to meet you in person and express our thanks to you.”
In addition, they also included a special bank card with the USB drive, which the other party could withdraw money from any bank in Yao Country at any time, as a small token of sincerity.
——Of course, Yao Country would not deliberately monitor the flow of funds from this bank card, such a thing would only be annoying if discovered. For them, as long as this bank card is used by someone afterwards, it means that the mysterious shop owner has at least material needs in reality, and is not without desires or demands. Then they have a breakthrough in cooperating with the other party.
After such a self-proclaimed sincere operation, all they had to do was wait.
Wait for the response of the mysterious flower shop owner, and then decide what to do next based on his response.
If the attitude is friendly, willing to meet, establish a cooperative relationship with each other, and exchange information and resources for mutual benefit, that would be the best.
However...
“...According to the personality simulation we have built for the flower shop owner, he has a bit of a game world mentality. He is very likely to maintain a friendly attitude towards our goodwill, but he may not be willing to get too involved in reality and establish too close a relationship with the official.”
A group of experts in psychology who had planned this long ago spoke up, and it was all very well thought out.
“So, we just need to simply express our friendliness. Even if the possibility of the other party cooperating with the official is extremely low, with his personality, after we take the initiative to show goodwill, he is likely to choose to use some not important supernatural world information to express to us a friendly attitude of not disturbing each other.”
“——And this information, which is not important to him, is just to convey a friendly attitude, is very important to us!”
The next moment, the system’s narration revealed the truth.
[You are the first under heaven.]
Bai Yi: ???
“The first under heaven? Just this? Just this? I’m afraid it’s the last, right?”
[You dominated the martial arts world, suppressed Jianghu for twenty years. Swept through the current generation, the previous generation, the generation before that, you are a rare talent in a hundred years, the highest master under heaven.]
[You are a legend of an era.]
Bai Yi had even more question marks over his head.
[Life as the invincible under heaven is lonely as snow. After picking on each major sect, using the martial arts of each major sect to pad the table legs and bed legs, you decided to retire from Jianghu.]
[Everyone cheered and celebrated your departure.]
[But just a year later, your place of seclusion was discovered, and enemies from all over Jianghu came to kill you.]
[You looked down on this group of weak chickens, but found that you were the weakest weak chicken? The former defeated generals easily defeated you.]
[It turns out that during the time you were in seclusion, this world sneakily upgraded itself!]
[The martial arts world has become a Xianxia world!]
[Everyone has received the baptism of spiritual energy, successfully lying down and winning during the world upgrade, their strength has made great progress.]
[And you, once a martial arts genius, are actually a cultivation waste who is immune to spiritual energy!]
[You have been eliminated by the new era!]
[But you are not willing.]
[“It’s not me who’s wrong, it’s this world!”]
[“It must be this world deliberately targeting me!”]
[With this in mind, you decide to change the world.]
[Task: Knowing your mistakes and correcting them is a virtue, help the world to correct its evil ways. Don’t mess around because of jealousy of genius.]
“Hmm? Eh? Oh no!”
During the process of the system’s narration, Bai Yi’s expression also changed with the narration, he was chewing on a straw, and from time to time he uttered a tone word, the changes were very rich.
Until he saw this bizarre task...
“Amazing! So that’s what ‘heaven is jealous of genius’ means? Are you the modern idiom master???”
