The Ascension Plan of the Ancestral Star of the Shuttles

Chapter 202 This is Supernatural

The day before the actual combat test date, Mars was called to the office alone by Chen Shude.

"Mars, for your practical test tomorrow, I arranged an abandoned hotel."

"Actually, taking the test is just an excuse. The real purpose is that the higher-ups issued an order to carry out a secret mission in this abandoned hotel. I recommend you to go."

"However, this task is absolutely confidential. Even the two Madams and Sir Zhang cannot know about it. Do you understand?"

After listening to Chen Shude's words, Mars said solemnly, "yes sir."

Chen Shude nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile, "If you successfully complete this task, I guarantee that you will be promoted immediately."

"I heard that you have already chased after Chief Mao. After all, you are still a man, and your position is lower than your girlfriend. Someone will gossip."

"You have been with me for so many years, and I will definitely support you."

Mars said gratefully: "Thank you sir, I will definitely complete the task."

On the weekend of last week, Mars finally asked Mao You to have dinner.

He wooed Mao You in the restaurant, and his heart was exhausted, and there was no more worries about Mao You, so he finally put the ring he gave him on his middle finger.

At this point, the two finally came together, and Mars's years of waiting were not in vain after all.

After a few days, this matter has spread. After all, Mao You has an extra ring on his hand. The team members are not blind, so how could they not see it?
"Listen up, there is a red cylinder in Room 805 of the abandoned hotel tomorrow, and your task is to bring that cylinder out and hide it in the designated place."

"After you finish this, you have to go back to the hotel immediately and continue to take the test. Remember, don't let anyone find out about your actions, understand?"

"Yes sir."

"Very well, let's go!"

After sending Mars away, Chen Shude picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Mr. Qingdao, what you want will be available tomorrow, so get ready to give me the money!"

……

To the east of the city center of Yuen Long, New Territories, Hong Kong, on the Au Tou section of Kam Tin Highway, there is an abandoned hotel called Viking Hotel.

The reason why it was abandoned was that not long after the hotel opened, all employees and tenants, adding up to a hundred and ten people, all mysteriously disappeared overnight.

Eleven o'clock the next night.

The special operations team assembled here, looking at the dead and gloomy hotel in front of them, Octopus, Ma Xiaoling, and Mao You all frowned slightly.

Ma Xiaoling said solemnly: "My intuition tells me that there is something wrong with this hotel."

Octopus said in a deep voice: "My intuition is the same, but the Fayan can't see anything, the concentration of Yin Qi is normal, and there is no resentment at all."

Mao You has been practicing for a month now, and he also has mana, so he can naturally feel Ma Xiaoling's feeling.

Her one month is not just one month. One month of practicing Wuling Xuanyuan Jue is not comparable to one month of practicing Maoshan Taoism.

Let's put it this way!After a month of uncompromising practice, Mao You has already cultivated spiritual consciousness and entered the stage of agility.

Ma Xiaoling has practiced for 20 years, plus Mao You was instilled with mana back then, and then switched to Wuling Xuanyuan Jue, the transformed five spirits' mana is only in the agile stage.

It can only be said that the innate Taoist body is so terrifying.

Mao You looked at Chen Shude and asked, "Sir, why did you choose this hotel?"

Chen Shude said with a smile: "When choosing an actual combat test site, it is natural to choose a place with an atmosphere."

"This hotel was indeed haunted before, so it closed down, but there are many mages who have come to perform rituals, so it should be fine."

After saying this, he walked up to the team members and said solemnly: "The superiors attach great importance to the results of this actual combat test. If they fail, the whole team may face disbandment."

"So what if there is an abnormality? Will you be unable to cope with emergencies?"

Mars puffed up his chest and said, "No sir, we will not let you down."

Chen Shude showed satisfaction on his face, looked at Zhang Yu and Ma Xiaoling and said, "Sir Zhang, Sir Ma, let's start the test if there is no problem! I'll leave it to you."

Seeing what he said, Zhang Yu and Ma Xiaoling didn't think too much about it anymore. Anyway, with them here, even if there were any problems, they could solve them at any time.

Ma Xiaoling turned her hands and took out eleven lucky stars, and said to the team members: "This test is not only to evaluate the abilities of your team, but also to test the cooperation between you and Chief Mao."

"There are ten good ghosts here, and one evil ghost that only possesses the human body. Your mission this time is to find the evil ghost and catch it within an hour."

"As long as you make a mistake or hurt a good ghost, all of you will fail as a team, understand?"

All the team members shouted together: "yes Madam."

Ma Xiaoling threw the lucky star in her palm towards the hotel, and the lucky star turned into ten balls of green light and one ball of red light flew into the hotel.

"The test begins."

Following Ma Xiaoling's order, the team members quickly formed two assault teams, maintaining the battle formation and rushing towards the hotel.

Mao You and the others turned back and got on the command vehicle behind them. There was surveillance video on the vehicle, which was connected to the cameras on the team members' helmets.

The instant messaging system also allows Maoyou to deploy the entire team in real time at any time and provide information support.

"Group A, follow me, Group B, go to the stairs on the right."

"Yes sir."

Inside the command vehicle, Mars' on-site command voice sounded through the power amplifier.

Mao You has already put on the communicator and started to arrange strategic targets: "The first thing is to find out which one of the eleven ghosts is an evil ghost, and then lock the target and hunt it down with all your strength."

"Remember, no one is allowed to shoot without my approval. You only have one chance. Once you make a wrong judgment, the mission will fail completely."

"In addition, the results obtained for subduing evil spirits and killing evil spirits are also different. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not shoot lightly."

Ma Xiaoling sat leisurely and looked through the impurities, while Zhang Yu and Chen Shude stood behind Mao You, paying attention to the situation of the team members.

Suddenly, one of the screens turned into a snowflake, which was a shot belonging to Mars.

Chen Shude's expression changed, and Mao You said nervously, "Mars, is there something wrong with your camera?"

Mars' voice came from the communicator: "What's wrong?"

Mao You said: "Your surveillance screen has disappeared."

Mars said calmly: "Maybe there is a problem with the battery, it doesn't matter, the communicator is working normally, I will report any situation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Big R's voice sounded from the communicator, "Captain, I found something."

Mao You quickly looked at Big R's surveillance screen, it was a ghost holding a book, pacing in the corridor, emitting green positive energy from his body.

Then Skye's voice came: "Group B found two ghosts on the third floor."

Mao You said: "The three ghosts all radiate positive energy, they are good ghosts, please mark them."

The test was going on nervously, Chen Shude suddenly said: "I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."

"Oh!"

A few people didn't care, Ma Xiaoling was still reading the magazine on her own, while Octopus and Mao You focused on the surveillance video.

Time passed by minute by minute, and when there were only ten minutes left before the end time, all eleven ghosts were found.

Mao You looked at the screen in doubt, and asked, "Is there a mistake? Why are all eleven ghosts positive energy?"

She thought of something, turned her head to look at Ma Xiaoling and asked, "Ma Xiaoling, did you do something wrong?"

Without turning her head, Ma Xiaoling said nonchalantly, "Let's have a little bit! There are hypocrites in people, and there are fake ghosts in ghosts. There are only 10 minutes left!"

Mao You: "..."

Seeing Mao You's depressed expression, Octopus couldn't help but said, "My wife, you are too bad, you still know how to play."

Ma Xiaoling smiled, and said to him: "This is a test of their ability to adapt to changing circumstances, and it's not intentional to trick them."

Chen Shude, who had already returned to the command vehicle, said dissatisfiedly: "But you didn't say in advance that the energy of the evil spirit will be temporarily changed."

"What's the difference between this and brain teasers when you take a math test?"

Ma Xiaoling said as a matter of course: "Of course there is a difference. Mathematics is the most rigorous subject, so doing brain teasers is really fooling around."

"But they are not doing math problems, but catching ghosts. During the process of catching ghosts, any unreasonable situations are reasonable. This is supernatural."

Chen Shude was speechless, but his dissatisfaction was only faking.

His purpose from the beginning was to get the red cylinder, which was the spirit weapon, Alice's music box.

As long as this goal can be achieved, he doesn't care whether those players can pass or be dismissed.

When he applied for activity funds before, he had already made a lot of money. As long as he got the music box and the buyer's fee, even if he retired immediately, he would be able to live the life of a rich man.

Over there, Mao You ignored the argument between Chen Shude and Ma Xiaoling, because it was meaningless, and she was self-contained with the intensive arrangement tactics.

"Listen everyone, Ma Xiaoling has changed the energy of the evil ghosts, and now the evil ghosts are also disguised as good ghosts. You drive all the ghosts into the hall."

With 3 minutes left before the end time, the eleven ghosts had already been rushed to the lobby, but neither Mao You nor the team members at the scene could tell the identity of the evil ghosts.

Mao You also became anxious, brushing his hair back again and again.

In the original plot, it was the arrow who discovered the key to breaking the game. There is no arrow at this time. If no one has a flash of inspiration, then they are doomed to fail this test.

At this moment, the voice of the octopus suddenly sounded in Maoyou's mind: "Actually, Xiaoling has already given the answer at the beginning, think carefully about what she said before the test began."

Mao You was taken aback for a moment, and what Ma Xiaoling said before the test began immediately appeared in his mind.

"There are ten good ghosts here, and one evil ghost that only possesses the human body. Your task this time is to find the evil ghost and catch it within an hour..."

A flash of lightning flashed across his mind, Mao You's eyes lit up, and he said in a loud voice, "Sikai, take off your equipment immediately, everyone else, get ready with the magic-suppressing flashlight."

Hearing Mao You's words, the team members finally realized that the evil spirit only possessed human bodies, but they were all equipped with demon-destroying equipment, and the evil spirit dared not approach them at all.

Only by taking off the equipment can it be possible to lure that evil ghost.

A gratified smile appeared on Ma Xiaoling's face. She didn't know that Mao You got the octopus' tip, so she thought it was her own thought.

After Si Kai took off the equipment, the evil spirit really showed its true colors and rushed towards him, but the other team members who had been prepared for a long time stopped it and took it away with the magic-suppressing flashlight.

At this time, it was less than 1 minute before the end of the test.

Mao You let out a long sigh of relief, looked back at Octopus, and smiled at him, with a flash of gratitude in his eyes.

The octopus' hints are suspected of cheating, but speaking of it, it was Ma Xiaoling who played tricks first.

Besides, the octopus didn't give the answer directly, but just hinted at the idea of ​​solving the problem, so Mao You didn't pay too much attention to this little cheating.

After experiencing this time, both she and the team members have already learned this way of solving problems, and have gained tangible results, so there is no need to worry about minor flaws.

After the test was over, all the team members gathered outside the hotel again.

Chen Shude smiled at Ma Xiaoling: "Mr. Ma, you can rate it! [-] points for passing, [-] points for full marks, how many points do you give?"

Ma Xiaoling thought for a while and said, "Eighty points!"

"Ah? Only eighty points? No way!"

"Even if it took us a little longer, we still managed to complete the task anyway, so it should be ninety percent!"

A group of guys seem to be complaining about the low points, but in fact, everyone's face is already full of joy.

They are already very happy to pass the test smoothly, and eighty points are all in the good category.

Ma Xiaoling glared at them and said, "I'll be happy if I can give you eighty points! Your performance has just passed, and the thirty points are earned by you, Chief Mao."

Big R laughed and said, "Fortunately, Chief Mao is smart, otherwise we would not be able to pass the test."

"Thank you, Chief Mao."

Mao You said: "You don't need to thank me, in fact, Chief Ma has already given the answer from the beginning, but we missed the point at the beginning."

"So everyone must remember that when dealing with supernatural events, you must know how to adapt to the situation, that is, you must use your brain and not act recklessly."

The team members nodded in conviction.

Octopus smiled and said: "Okay, anyway, everyone did a good job today, let's close the team! I'll have dinner later, I'll treat you."

"Yes sir, Thank you sir."

……

Although the quiz was successfully passed, Mars' mission failed.

He only got back an empty cylinder, and the music box inside was left behind by him, causing the evil spirit Alice to be released.

Evil spirits are evil ghosts of a higher level than wraiths, much more terrifying than wraiths.

They like to torture the living to death in their own unique way, and that way is usually related to the source of their resentment.

The appearance of one is enough to cause harm to one party, and countless people are harmed, and those with advanced powers cannot solve it.

However, although the evil spirits are terrifying, they are still in the "ninety percent" category of the octopus, and they are not qualified to enter the "ten percent".

With the equipment of the special operations team, which is several grades better than that in the original play, even if Alice can't be subdued, self-protection is still more than enough.

Chen Shude was furious when he didn't get what he wanted, and ordered Mars to return to the hotel as soon as possible to retrieve Alice's music box.

However, in order to make big news, a group of TV crews who entered the Viking Hotel privately to film, disrupted Mars' plan.

At the same time, this group of people who wanted to die also inadvertently blocked the disaster for Mars.

If Mars hadn't been concerned about this group of people, Mars had rashly entered the hotel without any equipment, and the only result would have been to become a shadow on the hotel wall.

Mars originally planned to wait outside the hotel until it got dark, and then go in to pick up the music box after the people from the TV station left.

As a result, before it was dark, he received a call from Chen Shude telling him to return to the headquarters.

……

Special Operations Team Conference Room.

All the team members, Mao You, Zhang Yu, and Ma Xiaoling were all present, and a tape recorder was placed on the table, which played the recording of the call recorded by the reporting center.

In the recording is the scream of a man, mixed with the laughter of a little girl.

After playing the recording, Chen Shude said solemnly: "After the reporting center received this call, there has been no news from the filming crew."

"It's not known where they went or if they left the hotel."

"So we suspect that a supernatural crime may have occurred at the Viking Hotel."

Mao Youning looked at Octopus and Ma Xiaoling and said, "Actually, when we took the test, we already felt that there was a problem."

"But if there are really dirty things, Zhang Sir and Chief Ma should know about it."

The octopus spread its hands and said, "But the truth is, we didn't find anything unusual."

Ma Xiaoling pondered for a while, and said: "It is also possible that there are some evil spirits in that hotel that we have never seen before."

Octopus said thoughtfully: "There is another possibility, that is, there was some kind of existence sealed in the hotel, and we didn't touch the seal during the test, so there was no abnormality."

"The gang of deadly TV crews broke into the hotel without permission, accidentally touched the seal, and released the unknown evil spirit."

When the octopus said this, Mars frowned subconsciously, and turned to look at Chen Shude, only to see that he lowered his head slightly, with an unnatural expression on his face.

He had some doubts in his heart, is this really a secret mission sent by "above"?

If the so-called spirit weapon is what the octopus said, sealing an unknown evil spirit, then shouldn't a professional exorcist be invited to do this kind of task?
And why keep it a secret?It is reasonable to keep the public secret. In order to avoid social panic, some things are naturally not suitable for the public to know.

But why should it be kept secret from the insiders and Mr. Zhang and Mr. Ma who are exorcists?What's the point?

The more he thought about it, the more Mars felt something was wrong, and he became suspicious of Chen Shude in his heart.

"In any case, this incident involves the media, and the higher authorities attach great importance to this case. You should rush to the hotel as soon as possible to find out and rescue the people from the TV station."

Octopus and Ma Xiaoling looked at each other, and then said to Chen Shude: "In view of the special situation this time, let the two Madams and I lead the team personally!"

Chen Shude thought it was terrible, if they interfered, would the music box still fall into his hands?

But he didn't have any reason to reject this proposal at all, so he could only pretend to be relieved and said, "It's best if you are willing to help, and I'll leave this matter to you."

Octopus nodded, and said to the team members: "Remember, your main task is to save the TV station staff, and retreat immediately after you rescue them."

"If you encounter an accident, you should focus on protecting yourself, and leave the rest to me and Chief Ma, do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

……

After putting on the equipment in the equipment warehouse, all the team members filed out, but Mars called Octopus and the others.

He didn't hide any more, and told the three of Chen Shude's so-called secret mission.

After hearing his words, Ma Xiaoling's face showed anger, "Spiritual weapon? Someone dares to make such a thing."

Mao You's face was also very ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "The biggest problem is not this."

Octopus said seriously, "Mao You, can you speak to the higher-ups?"

Mao You nodded and said, "I know Superintendent Liu, the Deputy Director of the Police Department in charge of the Operations Department. I will call him immediately to confirm whether there is such a secret mission."

The Operation Department is a large department under the police force, consisting of four departments: the Operations Section, the Police Mobile Unit, the Explosives Disposal Section, and the Major Accident Section.

The Police Tactical Unit is made up of the Training Section, Support Section, Research and Development Section and the Flying Tigers.

In other words, Superintendent Liu, whom Mao You knew, was several grades higher than Chen Shude.

After Mao You called, he quickly confirmed that there was no secret mission about the Viking Hotel in the Operations Department.

Superintendent Liu also asked the chief in charge of the police mobile unit, and he did not send any secret missions.

In this way, it can be completely confirmed that this secret mission is Chen Shude's private behavior.

Octopus called Li Fei, told him the matter, and asked him to help investigate Chen Shude.

Li Fei naturally knew what was going on, it was just a trivial matter, and a document would appear on the desk of the ICAC soon.

After Octopus hung up the phone, he said to several people: "Don't worry about it so much now, and deal with the business first."

"Ah."

　New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year are constantly updated, but the second and third day of the second day and the third day have to be off for two days, because I have to pay New Year's greetings everywhere, sorry.
