"Speaking of which, there have also been some accidents on the military's side recently."
Zhu Yuan happened to remember something, so she spoke to Mo Xuan again. She was the type who couldn't stay idle. Now that she had a rare break, she felt it was better to say something.
"What accident?"
Mo Xuan asked, following Zhu Yuan's words.
"A few military mechs went out of control in a Hollow. The military is hiding this information, but we at the Criminal Investigation Special Operations Unit have to enter and exit Hollows often, so we got some inside information, telling us to be careful when we encounter a mech."
Zhu Yuan had no emotional fluctuations. Mechs, these computer-controlled things, were created to clean up the Ethereals in a Hollow. Now that the technology level had gone up, of course, not every commission required humans to personally eliminate them. But mechs were relatively expensive and difficult to deploy on a large scale. Not many people knew about them.
It was not strange for a mech to go out of control in a Hollow. After all, military computers also have their limits. A Hollow can even erode machinery. After the mech was no longer controlled by the computer, it began to wander and attack indiscriminately. This was fatal for Hollow investigators. If the military even hid it from the Public Security Bureau, then there would be no room for discussion between the two sides in the future.
"There are too many accidents. What if the mech comes out of the Hollow and hurts people?"
Mo Xuan complained a bit. He thought that as a knight, he sometimes had to deal with things other than monsters. Uncontrolled creations seemed to have also been kicked by a Rider.
"That probably won't happen. The military has strict surveillance. I heard they have been wandering in the depths of the Hollow. If they get close to the exit, they will definitely be discovered. If they get close to the periphery, it will be easier to recover."
Zhu Yuan thought for a moment and said. Then she and Mo Xuan both let out a sigh of relief. Although the loss of these things was a pity, as long as they could be kept from hurting people, it was fine.
Just as Zhu Yuan and Mo Xuan were continuing to chat, her communicator suddenly rang. The female officer quickly answered it and heard the anxious voice of the operator inside.
"A sudden associated Hollow accident? I understand."
Zhu Yuan put down the communicator and frowned, then looked at Mo Xuan, who was already preparing to leave.
"A Hollow accident suddenly occurred in Seventh Street. The surrounding area has been sealed off. Because the situation was sudden, many citizens are trapped inside. The situation is extremely serious."
"So close to my home?"
Just as Mo Xuan showed his surprise, his phone rang. He looked at it and saw it was an unfamiliar number. The situation was urgent, so he didn't answer. But after he hung up, the other party called again, seeming very anxious to find him. Mo Xuan could only answer.
"Mo Xuan, something big has happened! Belle, Belle!"
Wise's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, almost incoherent. Mo Xuan's heart also tightened.
"Take your time. What's wrong with Belle?"
Mo Xuan tried to persuade Wise in a calm voice. The other end of the phone quickly returned to normal. Wise was also a person who had experienced big scenes and knew that being anxious at this time couldn't save anyone.
"Belle was affected by an associated Hollow and is inside. At this time, I can only ask you for help."
"What, she went to Seventh Street?"
Mo Xuan knew from Wise's previous tone that something bad was going to happen, but he didn't expect it to go to the result he least wanted to see. The place where the Hollow disaster occurred was too close to Sixth Street. He only had these two friends, and they were unfortunately in distress.
"She went to stock up for the video store. I was supposed to go with her, but she said the films she needed this time were different and wanted to run to a few more suppliers. And then this happened."
Wise explained with great conflict. But it was also a good thing he hadn't gone with Belle. Otherwise, there would be no one to ask for help now.
Mo Xuan then thought of Belle coming to ask him what films he needed in the morning. He hadn't cared at that time and had just casually said a few needs. The place Belle went to stock up was within the range of the Hollow. He probably had some responsibility for this, which made Mo Xuan's scalp tingle.
"Mo Xuan, please. She's my only sister."
Wise's voice was a little choked. The strongest agent he knew was undoubtedly Mo Xuan. As long as Mo Xuan entered the Hollow, everything would be fine. Now it was a race against death.
"I know. I'll do my best to save her."
Mo Xuan took a deep breath after hanging up the phone and looked at Zhu Yuan, who had been watching him without leaving.
"Captain, I'm applying for permission to act alone."
"Mo Xuan, you are a Public Security officer now. You must act according to the orders of the Public Security Bureau."
Zhu Yuan's orange eyes looked directly at Mo Xuan and said. Of course, she knew what was in the phone call. It must be that Mo Xuan's friend was in an accident. But she couldn't approve it at this time. She was afraid that Mo Xuan would lose his calm and composure because of emotional impulse. That would only lead to death in the Hollow.
"I know. I'm not going to save my friend because of emotional impulse. I will save all the victims I encounter along the way. If she really... has an accident, I can only say it's bad luck."
Mo Xuan clenched his fists and said. He had thought about directly bypassing everyone to find Belle, but he couldn't do such a thing. Now Belle and many people were trapped in the Hollow together. In terms of personal preference, of course Belle was more important than anyone else. But he was not the type to see death and not save. Based on the idea of saving one is one, what he could do was to race against time and save Belle and others at the fastest speed.
"Okay. I approve your action. Mo Xuan, come back alive."
Zhu Yuan's serious expression eased a little. She looked at Mo Xuan and said. This was also what Zhu Yuan would do. The two of them had coincidentally chosen to treat the victims equally. Perhaps it was a bit cruel to themselves, but this was what a Public Security officer should do, to treat all life equally.
"Yes, sir."
Mo Xuan saluted Zhu Yuan. He felt his nose was a little sore. To have such a supervisor as Zhu Yuan was really like having saved the world in a previous life. Even under such circumstances, she still chose to believe in him, saving him the tedious procedures of the Public Security Bureau and going directly to the Hollow. He had no time at all now to participate in the deployment of the rescue plan.
After leaving the Public Security Bureau, Mo Xuan got on his motorcycle and rushed towards Seventh Street at a speed of 120 mph. If it weren't for the heavy traffic in the city, he could have gone even faster. In just a few minutes, he had already arrived at the entrance of Seventh Street.
At this time, the street had been completely sealed off. It had to be mentioned, as expected of the Hollow-prone New Eridu, the reaction speed of each Public Security Bureau branch was top-notch. Once a disaster occurred, they would immediately seal off the roads and evacuate the public to prevent more people from being in distress.
Mo Xuan parked his motorcycle next to the police car that was blocking the road, and then walked inside. On the way, he met a colleague from the Public Security Bureau wearing a blue protective suit and a cricket helmet. Mo Xuan also showed his ID.
"Criminal Investigation Special Operations Unit, carrying out a solo mission."
After checking the ID, the officers let Mo Xuan pass. The identity of the Criminal Investigation Special Operations Unit gave him a lot of convenience, which made him understand that his decision to join this organization was correct.
