There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

After Xu Shuo finished administering the acupuncture, Yin Banqian only felt a warm current flow through his body, instantly invigorating his previously listless spirit, and the pain from his wounds was gone!

Moreover, he was in great shape and felt like he could go out and have a fight!

"This can only temporarily alleviate your condition, to fully recover you still need to go to a regular hospital for treatment," Xu Shuo said while giving himself an acupuncture needle in his own forehead.

"That won't be necessary, as long as my mental state recovers, my physical injuries will heal on their own," Yin Banqian said with a dismissive wave of his hand.

Xu Shuo didn't say anything, but he noticed that the heavy dizziness did not improve after he gave himself the needle.

He wondered what aspect of him was being drained by the use of these New Human superpowers.

He subconsciously felt that he should not use them too much.

Just then, a light knocking sound came from the door.

"Come in," Yin Banqian called out.

No sooner had his voice faded, the door quietly opened, and two figures darted in, quickly closing the door behind them.

The room was very crowded and cluttered with miscellaneous items, making it difficult for the two new entrants to find a foothold in the darkness without making noise; they had to carefully edge further inside.

Wei Ya first carefully set up the electromagnetic jamming device, ensuring signal shielding, soundproofing barriers, and all other protective measures were in place, before finally getting to the main topic.

Sniffing the blood stench in the room, she asked with concern, "How are your injuries?"

The four of them had teamed up many times and were quite familiar with each other.

Yin Banqian waved his hand, "Don't worry, I won't die."

While they were discussing, they noticed that the name on the upper right corner had turned back to gold, easing their concerns.

This meant he was no longer in a critically injured state.

Then, Wei Ya raised her eyebrows and looked at the young man sitting quietly like a chicken next to her, "So, didn't I tell you to stay at school? How did you come out?"

She didn't find anything odd about Xu Shuo's slightly mature and world-weary features; after all, she too was capable of shrinking her bones and changing her appearance.

It was somewhat heartening that the newbie knew to disguise himself before coming out.

Xu Shuo looked somewhat apologetic, "Sorry, I actually didn't plan to come out, it's just that I suddenly discovered my superpower, so I tried using it. I think this must also be the reason why that person wanted me to meet up with 'Delta'."

Cheng Can was curiously examining Xu Shuo at the side.

For some reason, although all his friends were strangers to this guy, he personally felt a weird familiarity.

As if he had seen him many times before.

But when this person first entered level one, he must have already been promoted to level two, right?

There was absolutely no way they could have competed in the same drama, and right after he got promoted to level two, due to a significant setback, he didn't rest at all and was eager to perform a new script to grow stronger.

There was no need to explicitly state what the setback was.

With such a big difference in levels, it seemed impossible for them to have ever met.

Yet if he ever saw the other party perform in a theater, he couldn't recall ever watching a level one show.

Strange, where had he seen him before…

Could it be in the real world?

Perhaps due to Cheng Can's intense gaze, Xu Shuo turned to look at him, his dark eyes carrying a hint of puzzlement amidst their calmness.

Cheng Can awkwardly shifted his gaze away.

Of course, Xu Shuo knew what he was pondering over, but naturally, he wouldn't disclose it, and his gaze also casually drifted away.

"Let's not dwell on that, but I didn't expect that even after the four of us have met up, the main mission still hasn't been triggered. Let's exchange information first," he suggested.

Wei Ya didn't notice the eye contact between them, and as she spoke, she took out a Micro-end: "Do you have any common electronic devices on you? I'll install an instant messaging app for you."

Yin Banqian and Cheng Can both had Micro-ends.

Xu Shuo: "...?"

Seeing this object, he suddenly remembered that while searching Professor Li's office, he found a similar watch in the drawer, which seemed to have not been used for a long time.

Why didn't he use it?

Wei Ya seemed to guess what he was thinking, and glancing at him, she said, "As far as I know, most professors in the history department are old-fashioned. The system of this new Micro-end connects to human neurons, using the human brain's computation as the operating program, so they refuse to install such things in their brains."

Hearing this, the two beside her couldn't help touching their heads and suddenly began to feel an aversion to the Micro-end.

Seeing their reaction, Wei Ya said with amusement, "Don't worry, I assure you that the Micro-ends of our kind of secret organization are special, and they are not so easily invaded by hackers. Besides, I am currently modifying your Micro-ends, aren't I?"

While Wei Ya was adjusting the Micro-ends, Yin Banqian also didn't waste time and began speaking, "My previous mission seemed to be to infiltrate an organization called 'Paradise Bird,' to gather some of their information, but in reality, my actions had already been exposed."

Cheng Can was slightly surprised, "You mean there is a spy in our organization?"

When he heard the word "spy," Xu Shuo's gaze reflexively shifted, but then he remembered the crucial point that his team members would never be part of the enemy camp.

Oh, then there's no need to worry.

The notebook Hong Rao had arranged for him to enter could still be trusted; there was unlikely to be chaos.

Yin Banqian nodded and continued, "Probably, anyway, from the start, I was evading a pursuit, and I spent a good half a day winding through a factory-style building. Later, I managed to send out a message using the Micro-end in my hand."

At this point, Wei Ya had already seen the damaged data left by his Micro-end, and after fixing it, it became visible.

One was a garbled text message inquiring about his mission progress.

Another was his reply stating he had been exposed and was now on the run...

Wei Ya noted the time difference and thoughtfully said, "The person who sent the message might be somewhat credible, because Professor Li and I received the news of the 'Delta' mission incident after this, and he had Professor Li go to support you, showing that the sender knew about Professor Li's capabilities."

Yin Banqian added, "Moreover, my ability seems to be invisibility, and when I'm invisible, no device can detect me."

"Then how did you still..." Cheng Can glanced at his arm.

"That organization activated the self-destruct mechanism of the factory. It wasn't just me; almost the entire factory was destroyed," said Yin Banqian with resignation. "I have no idea what exactly they were trying to conceal."

"So you didn't manage to find out anything and came out with serious injuries?" Cheng Can jabbed.

"..." Yin Banqian.

At that time, he was still in a state of total confusion. All he could do was use the Micro-end to capture the scene before him.

Whether or not there was any useful information in the video, he really didn't know.

Moreover, hadn't he figured out the name of the hostile organization?

Yin Banqian glared at him, retorting with a snort, "Then why don't you tell us, did you find any information on your side?"

Cheng Can stroked his chin, "I found out what our organization is."

Hearing this, the other two, who had been quietly listening, also turned to look at him, and Yin Banqian slightly raised an eyebrow.

Let's be real, they truly still didn't know what kind of organization they served.

This script had not provided any identity information.

Not keeping them in suspense any longer, Cheng Can chuckled in the darkness, flashing a set of bright white teeth: "It seems to be called—the New Human Evolution and Protection Security Bureau."

It sounded like a very official and formal organization.
