The plainclothes officer took out his police ID and threw it to Lin Moyan. Lin Moyan saw that the police ID didn't seem fake—the police badge and the steel seal were similar to the ones he had seen before.
While they were in a standoff, other public security officers arrived one after another. Outside the alley, nearly ten police cars were parked, with fifty or sixty fully armed police officers.
"Are you really police?" Lin Moyan looked at the police cars outside, and most of his doubts vanished.
"We are. Were you coerced by someone? Put down the gun and let's talk slowly." The man held at gunpoint by Lin Moyan saw that Lin Moyan seemed a bit shaken and spoke. He still tried to persuade Lin Moyan to put down the gun—after all, having a gun pointed at his head was really uncomfortable.
"I'm from the National Aerospace Bureau. My surname is Lin. Let your superior talk to me." As he spoke, he took out his ID and threw it to the plainclothes officer opposite.
The plainclothes officer didn't know if the ID was real. He left one person there and took the ID to go outside.
"Xiao Lin, how's the situation inside?" A middle - aged man in a police uniform, slightly chubby, pulled the man who had just come out and asked.
"Director Zhang, the suspect is calm. He gave me an ID, and I can't tell if it's real, so I brought it out for you to see." Xiao Lin handed the ID Lin Moyan gave him to Director Zhang.
"What is this........." Director Zhang took the ID and examined it. When he opened it and saw the emblem, his pupils constricted. Then he quickly turned and entered the equipment vehicle, and at the same time, called everyone out of the vehicle.
Then he turned on the computer, logged into his director's public security account, entered a string of codes, and jumped to another interface. The standard of this interface was exactly the same as the emblem on Lin Moyan's ID. Then he carefully entered Lin Moyan's ID number one by one.
He repeatedly verified it several times. After confirming the ID number was correct, he clicked to query.Query Result: Lin MoyanGender: MaleDate of Birth: July 26, 1948Place of Birth:..........
-..........Disappearance Time: October 21, 1973Disappearance Place: Lanshan District, Black Qun MountainsDisappearance Reason: Unknown..........
Director Zhang was a bit stunned. The ID was real, but this person had been missing for 55 years. How could he reappear?
Director Zhang thought for a while and separately enlarged Lin Moyan's black - and - white photo on the big screen.
"Xiao Lin, come in for a moment." Director Zhang walked to the back door of the technical vehicle, pulled it open, and said to Xiao Lin.
When Xiao Lin got into the vehicle, he pointed at the computer screen and asked Xiao Lin, "Look, is that person inside him?"
"Yes, Director, it's him." Xiao Lin was very certain—he had seen Lin Moyan's face.
"Are you sure? Take a closer look." Director Zhang still had some doubts and repeatedly confirmed with Xiao Lin.
"Director, I'm sure, absolutely sure."
"Okay, go out. Let me calm down." When Director Zhang heard Xiao Lin say this, he held his forehead and sat down, looking very troubled.
After Xiao Lin went out, he took out his phone and directly pressed the 1 - click speed dial.
"D ......... Hello, that person." The phone rang a few times and was answered. The voice on the other end was a man's, very deep, slightly aged.
"Chief, there's a situation here. We might need the special department of the Aerospace Bureau to get involved." Director Zhang didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point.
"Need the special department of the Aerospace Bureau? What big thing happened?" The old chief got excited as soon as he heard this.
Then Director Zhang told the old chief everything. The old chief was silent for a long time after hearing it. After a while, he said, "First, keep the person steady. This matter is beyond our control. I'll contact the person in charge of the special department."
"Yes."
After hanging up the phone, Director Zhang took off all his equipment. He had to be friendly enough to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. And only he had the authority to know about this matter, so only he could handle it.
If it was fake, he might die, but if it was real, it would be a great achievement—maybe he could even get promoted and enter the special department.
"Director, you........." The person next to Director Zhang was about to say something but was stopped by Director Zhang raising his hand.
"Lao He, after I go in, you'll take over the command. This matter is a bit complicated and has already alarmed the top leaders." Director Zhang patted the shoulder of the person next to him and said.
"Lao Zhang, take care. I'll handle things outside." Lao He realized the seriousness when he heard Director Zhang say this. He didn't use official titles anymore and directly called him Lao Zhang—they had known each other for over twenty years, had been through life - and - death situations together, and were like real brothers.
"When this is over, I'll treat you to a drink." Director Zhang said this and entered the alley.
When he went in and saw Lin Moyan, he raised his hands to show he had no ill intentions.
He was shocked when he saw Lin Moyan's face—it was exactly the same. Then he said to the plainclothes officer still in the standoff, "You go out. I'll handle this."
"Director........."
"Can't you hear me when I tell you to go out?" The plainclothes officer still wanted to say something but was yelled at by Director Zhang. The words died in his throat, and then he looked warily at Lin Moyan and went out.
"Comrade Lin Moyan, we've verified your identity. It's real. This is a misunderstanding. Can you let him go first?"
"Okay." Lin Moyan let the person go without hesitation, but of course, he didn't return the gun.
Then Director Zhang let that person out too. Now only Director Zhang, Lin Moyan, and Yun Qingsheng were left in the alley.
"Comrade Lin Moyan, shall we talk here or go back to the public security bureau and wait for your people?" He said this as a test. If it was really him, he would agree to wait at the bureau without hesitation, and vice versa.
Actually, even now, Director Zhang was still in shock. If it weren't for the big - data screening showing no one matching his appearance, he wouldn't have believed that a person in their eighties or nineties could still be so young. Also, he thought of rumors within the department that a certain department had developed gene - enhancing drugs.
So he was taking a gamble!!!
"Go to the public security bureau and wait for my people. There are some things you aren't qualified to know yet." Lin Moyan chose the latter without hesitation. The reason for his strong attitude was that his authority was far higher than that of a district - level public security director—who only had the right to know of their department's existence, nothing more.
"Okay, please come with me." Director Zhang was relieved that Lin Moyan agreed so quickly. Then he took Lin Moyan and Yun Qingsheng out.
He didn't think much about Yun Qingsheng's identity, assuming the two were together.
"Everyone, put down your guns. They're on a special mission. This is a misunderstanding." Director Zhang walked at the front. As soon as he left the alley, he told everyone to put down their guns.
When all the police heard the director say this, they put down their guns.
Then Director Zhang took Lin Moyan and Yun Qingsheng to the command vehicle. All the police left, and it took less than ten minutes, leaving many onlookers confused.
In the vehicle, Lin Moyan and Yun Qingsheng talked with Director Zhang about many things about today's society.
Although they still had a glimmer of hope, the cruel reality hit them hard.
The era they were in now was really 2028—55 years had really passed. For a moment, both fell silent. Lin Moyan thought of his younger sister, and Yun Qingsheng thought of Yun Bixin.
55 years had passed, and things had changed. Maybe the people they cared about were no longer there. They had only stayed in that space for a few days, but 55 years had passed in the outside world.
"Ahhh!!!" In the end, Lin Moyan couldn't take it anymore and shouted while holding his head in the vehicle.
..........
"Report to the Leader, Civilization 14 has been destroyed. And some of its fragments have invaded Civilization 21."
"What stage has Civilization 14 reached?"
"Interstellar Era, Type 4.5 Civilization, reached the fourth stage."
"What about Civilization 21?"
"Information Era, has already started space exploration, barely qualifies as a Type 2 Civilization."
"Okay, save the file records, delete all data related to Civilization 14. Speed up the progress of Civilization 21 and a small number of experimental subjects to Civilization 21."
"Yes."
