9: Chapter 9: Mirror World and Building C 9: Chapter 9: Mirror World and Building C Wei Zhi continued, “The murderer ca from the Mirror World.
As far as I know, it was the first ti a person from the Mirror World ca to our world.”
“Subsequently, in the 7th, 5th, and 3rd years ago, there were instances of the Mirror World’s portal opening in our country, allowing many natives from the Mirror World to enter our world, posing a serious threat to the lives and property of our people.”
“It wasn’t until about a year ago that the frequency of the Mirror World’s gates opening greatly increased.
Even more natives appeared in our world, and it was from that ti that we started to have a better understanding of the Mirror World.”
“Take East Sea City, for instance.
This year, aside from the man you t at East Sea University, two others also ca from the Mirror World.”
Lin Xing asked doubtfully, “Do the people who co over from the Mirror World always commit cris?”
Wei Zhi said, “That’s what I’m about to discuss.”
“Based on intelligence gathered from these individuals, the Mirror World should be a world extrely similar to ours in terms of environnt, culture, and history, which is the origin of its na.”
“But there are two differences: one is that the Mirror World seems to be far more underdeveloped than ours.
All sorts of modern electronic and digital products are things the natives have never seen before.
The second is that everyone who cos over from the Mirror World has more or less ntal issues, coupled with a strong inclination towards violence; they nearly all hold human life extrely cheaply.”
Although the information about this other world described by Wei Zhi was shocking, Lin Xing, as a superpower user, naturally had a much greater capacity to accept it than an ordinary person.
He imdiately asked, “Before , was there no one who had been to the Mirror World, no one who managed to obtain skills?”
Wei Zhi said, “As far as the intelligence I, at my level, can access, very few people have entered the Mirror World.
Apart from you, I don’t know who else has returned.”
He sighed and then explained, “We’ve never mastered the pattern of when the Mirror World’s gates open, and the duration they remain open is also extrely short, and overall, there haven’t been many openings.
So, in the past, we’ve never had the opportunity to explore the other side systematically.”
“By the ti we hurried to the site, the gate would have already closed.
The result would be soone from our world disappearing or a native from the other side coming over.”
“Now you should understand that the Mirror World is very likely a place where everyone harbors malice in their hearts, everyone has skills, and everyone possesses great physical strength.”
“An ordinary person who mistakenly enters that world almost stands no chance of coming back alive.”
“Thankfully, starting this month, the higher-ups have obtained technology to predict the opening locations of the gate, and then we discovered you.”
Lin Xing pondered a different issue: “If instantaneous movent and space teleportation are all results of the Mirror World’s gate opening, then could there really be no organization with superpowers that wants to kill ?
Is it really that I…
misunderstood?”
Wei Zhi pointed at a five-story building in the distance, where several ard soldiers were clearly visible guarding the entrance.
He introduced, “Xiao Lin, this is Building C of the research institute, which will be your workplace from now on.”
Lin Xing curiously asked, “What will my job be?”
Wei Zhi looked at him seriously and said, “As I told you before, apart from the transmigrator from the Mirror World you encountered at the university, there are two more transmigrators; they are both locked up in this building.”
“For the past while, we’ve been researching their ntal states, studying their strong physiques, and trying to communicate with them to obtain more information about the Mirror World.”
“You should understand that, before a gate opens, the most convenient way for us to get intelligence about the other side is to communicate with these transmigrators.”
“But they’ve always been very resistant to communicating with us, and despite all our efforts to engage them, the results have been quite limited.”
“So…
I’d like you to try and communicate with them.”
Lin Xing asked in surprise, “?
How can I communicate with them?”
Wei Zhi smiled slightly and said, “You’ve forgotten, you’re soone with skills, you can pose as a transmigrator from the Mirror World to communicate with them.”
Lin Xing quickly understood and asked, “You want to go undercover?”
Wei Zhi said, “This task might involve so danger, if you’re afraid, I won’t force you…”
Lin Xing quickly responded, “You know I can reverse ti; danger is the least of my worries.
I’ve got this task covered!”
Wei Zhi patted his shoulder and said, “Good, I knew I wasn’t wrong about you.”
Lin Xing then said, “But I’ve t one of them at the university.”
Wei Zhi responded, “That’s not a problem.
We’ll arrange for you to et with him separately first.
If you can’t win his trust, we won’t let him et with the other two transmigrators.”
He pointed at Building C not far away and continued, “The three transmigrators are watched over as high-risk psychiatric patients due to their ntal issues.”
“Most of the staff in this building are ordinary people, just like most of the other regular staff mbers in the research institute.
They are unaware of the Mirror World’s intelligence, and for those in the building, their job is to monitor these high-risk patients.”
“To make it easier for you to gain the transmigrators’ trust, aside from the person who will fetch you, I won’t reveal your undercover identity to the other people inside Building C.”
Lin Xing nodded and said, “I understand, to deceive the other side, you have to deceive your own people first.”
…
The next day, Lin Xing walked into Building C under the watch of several soldiers.
Upon entering the building, Lin Xing felt the strict managent of the entire building, surveillance caras everywhere, heavy iron doors, and standing soldiers.
As he walked, Lin Xing thought, “If the people in this building don’t know the information about the Mirror World, and they don’t know my true identity, then in their eyes, am I just a regular psychiatric patient?
But I’m not sick, could the three transmigrators see through my act?”
After a physical examination, Lin Xing was temporarily stripped of his clothes and changed into a set of blue and white striped garnts, then under the watch of several soldiers, he entered an office.
He saw a female doctor sitting behind the desk, her cold eyes sizing him up.
Lin Xing calmly observed the female doctor, realizing that despite her icy deanor, she was quite attractive, to the point where even the soldiers watching over him couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.
The female doctor said calmly, “Xiao Lin, hello, I’m Chu Qingxin, your primary physician.”
“Don’t be nervous; today we’re just going to have a casual chat to get to know your situation.”
While glancing at the case file in her hand, she asked, “Xiao Lin, I heard that you can reverse ti, is that right?”
Taken aback, Lin Xing wondered if the woman could ask such a question, was she the person here to et him?
He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Where did you hear that from?”
