Chapter 227 Establishment of Fraud Organizations and Anti-Fraud Companies
Wen Rong picked up the card and looked at it. There were several gaudy URLs on it that didn't arouse his interest at all. When he turned to the back, one of the URLs with a triangular eye mark on the front made him interested.
This triangular eye mark, it seems that the person in their family told him that it may be related to the group who arrested Ms. Bi.
He checked the time, and it was more than half an hour before six o'clock, and Kuo Mo would come to pick him up at six o'clock.After thinking for a while, he left a message to Kuo Mo's communication account, got up to check out, and prepared to leave.
Boss Wu came to see him off in person, and when he asked about the location of the 'old mansion', this man misunderstood: "Are you going to see Mr.'s fake body?"
Now it was Wen Rong's turn to be surprised.Fake remains?
Boss Wu drew a simple map for him, and originally planned to take him there himself, but was declined by Wen Rong. For the sake of each other's safety, it's better for him not to get too close to each other.
Saying goodbye to Boss Wu, Wen Rong followed the map and walked to 'Friendship Street'. The 'Old Mansion' was at the corner of this street and another street, about a mile away.
If it was because of curiosity about the 'ceremony' that the student said before, now Wen Rong wants to see the fake corpse even more.
After walking for more than ten minutes, he found the address of the 'Old Mansion'. The first thing Wen Rong saw was not the 'Old Mansion' but the 'New Mansion' standing diagonally across the wide street from the 'Old Mansion'.
During the New Year's holiday, the majestic, clean and beautiful "New Mansion" buildings are bathed in the evening sun, the Union flag at the top is flying in the wind, and there are honor guards and patrol guards standing guard at the gate, and there are constant There are tourists who come from other places to take pictures outside the gate.
What a thriving scene.
Wen Rong's eyes turned back to look at the gray ruined building hidden at the corner not far behind, not to mention the overall size is more than half smaller, just the gloomy feeling, it is more like a castle left by a dilapidated noble family. It doesn't look like a former administrative building either.
Of course, tourists occasionally come here to take pictures.
As Wen Rong approached, he heard two tourists who were taking pictures talk about the history here.
"The corpse of the head of state is still preserved in the small museum here for people to pay their respects to. Let's go and see it too." Tourist A said to Tourist B.
"Look at the dead, what's there to see? The head of state is said to have no merits. It's all thanks to the generals. I heard that he was the first Bole who discovered the talents of the five chief executives. He had food in his hand. At that time Well, with enough food, you can build a base and become a leader." Tourist B's tone contained admiration for Leto and contempt for the former head of state.
"You are a fan of General Leipzig. Your Excellency the Führer still has merit, but it's just that the tea is cold and gradually faded away."
"Hi! You are not also a fan mentality. Don't forget that you worship a dead person, and the one I worship is still alive. Let's not just discuss this, if you want to worship him, go." Two tourists entered the gate with their respective cameras.
Wen Rong walked in behind them silently.
This is an open free 'attraction', except for an old man guarding the gate at the gate, there is no management staff inside.
The whole building complex is divided into three parts, the first part is the administrative office building at the front, the second part is the circular garden in the middle, and the third part is the museum at the back, that is, the former living building, which was converted into a museum at the back.
Most people come here to visit, mainly to visit the front administration building and the circular garden.In particular, the circular garden is more distinctive, and there is still a small maze inside. In the early years, there were "urban strange stories" from here, saying that if you wander alone in this circular garden, you will sometimes encounter legendary "monsters" '.
As for the museum at the back, there are occasional elementary school students and kindergarten children who come to have a look. Adults rarely go in unless they are admirers of Mr. Yuan.
"Actually, adults know it's a fake, so everyone doesn't have much interest." Tourist B is discussing with Tourist A whether the remains inside are real or not.
Tourist A, who is a fan of His Excellency the Führer, naturally believes that the corpse lying inside is real, and is willing to pay homage to him every time he comes, while Tourist B, who insists that it is a fake corpse inside, is unwilling to go to see it: "I still go to the garden , see if I can meet a 'self-defense monster', if I can catch one, I will be prosperous!"
"What you said is a lie, isn't there such a thing as 'self-defense monster' and 'Urban Strange Tale' is just a novel, you really take it seriously!" Tourist A teased his companion.
Their voices were neither high nor low, just enough that Wen Rong could hear them following behind.
The two tourists parted as they passed the circular garden.Wen Rong took a special look at the location of the circular garden, and suddenly his heart was pinched hard with just one glance, and he felt uncomfortable.He rubbed the back of his head, staring intently at the direction of the garden... There seemed to be something there.Because there are many "awakened ones" around him, even if he is an ordinary person and spends a long time with them, he can still sense slightly unusual energy fluctuations, as if he sensed a little bit just now.
However, he was not confident in his sensing ability and would make mistakes from time to time, so he didn't intend to go and have a look.His main goal was to see the fake corpse of their family.
Following Tourist A, Wen Rong walked to the innermost side with him.On the way, Tourist A turned around to take a special look at Wen Rong, and greeted him with a smile.
Wen Rong smiled back at the other party.This young man is a fan of their husband, and he has an innate liking for him.
There is a small path between the garden and the museum. Dragon claw flowers are planted on both sides of the path, and they are specially bred black dragon claw flowers.Wen Rong thought of Moshi's personal seal which looked like a hand that looked like a dragon's claw flower, so she couldn't help but took several photos.
The time is 52:8 in the afternoon, and there are still [-] minutes before the 'six o'clock' that the student said. I don't know if I can really see the 'ceremony' that the other party said.
A milky white three-story western-style building in front is the museum. Wen Rong walked over and found that there were more than [-] people gathered outside. Except for a small number of young people, most of them were middle-aged and elderly people, especially the elderly. most.These people looked like a group, but they didn't speak to each other, they just looked at tourists more when they saw tourists.
The tourist shrinks his body and walks towards the middle gate of the museum, which leads to the mourning hall. After entering, he detours to the back hall where the remains are stored.
Wen Rong thought for a while and continued to follow Tourist A.Compared with the strange and weird gatherers, the little fans made him feel safer.
Entering the interior, a strong scent of sandalwood mixed with a strange smell like a shroud permeated the atmosphere, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn and solemn. Wen Rong adjusted his mood and walked towards the back hall step by step.
There is a relatively wide corner corridor in front of it. On both sides of the corridor are abstract paintings, and there is a huge bust portrait of a person. The eyes of the other party give Wen Rong a very familiar feeling.
Although the appearance is different, Wen Rong still 'recognized' that the one painted in the portrait is their family, to be precise, it should be their former appearance.
He stopped to appreciate it for a moment, and came to a conclusion: the current appearance is more in line with his aesthetics.
Turning a corner, I saw a transparent glass coffin. Wen Rong's footsteps stopped again, and he adjusted his breath twice before walking over.Even though I told myself in my heart: It's not him, it's not him, he's still alive, and the one lying down is a fake.When approaching, his heart was still depressed and uncomfortable.
I couldn't help but think that if this wasn't a fantasy world, he might really be in a long sleep now, and the real body didn't know who hid it somewhere.
Tourist A bowed reverently to the body in the glass coffin, brought two fresh fruits as an offering, and walked around the coffin counterclockwise three times.
Wen Rong didn't do that, he just stood there to see and feel.What does a person worship when he is still alive?
Tourist A glanced sideways at Wen Rong, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, but he still couldn't help but say, "At least respect the deceased."
Wen Rong smiled gratifiedly in his heart, nodded politely to the other party, took out a small bag of divided biscuits from his pocket and placed it in front of the altar.
Tourist A rolled his eyes, knelt in front of the altar, put his hands on his chest, closed his eyes, and silently recited a series of prayers.
At this moment, the group of people who were waiting outside came in one after another, and Wen Rong took a few steps back to the previous corner.
Tourist A opened his eyes after making offerings, was shocked to see so many strangers around him, stood up and prepared to leave.
After they both backed away, the thirty or so people who came in began to prepare some strange props without saying a word. They each took out candles, silver cups, silver plates, knives and forks and other tableware from the packages they brought. Place it on the ground in front of you.
Tourist A realized what they were doing, turned pale with fright, turned around and left, saw Wen Rong still watching at the corner, and reminded him: "Go!"
Wen Rong waved his hand, signaling that he would stay and continue watching.
This should be the ritual that the student was talking about, he wanted to see how mysterious it was, and what the hell they were doing.
Seeing Wen Rong not leaving, Tourist A left first.
Wen Rong silently stared at the silent actions of the group of people inside, and laughed after seeing clearly.It turned out that they came here to share the meal, and the ceremony was just pretending to be mysterious... The silver cup was poured with red wine, and the silver plate was served with bloody beef.
It's not good for this group of people to have a dinner in front of a coffin with a fake corpse!
Immediately afterwards, an old man held his silver cup in both hands, closed his eyes and watched as he struggled in pain a few times. The red wine in the cup was frozen from the inside to the outside, and a thin layer of crushed ice formed on the surface.
The others were shocked by his hand, stared at the old man with devout eyes, and kowtowed to him.
"Responding to the call of the great ancestor's bloodline, we can regain transformation and have supernatural abilities!" The old man turned around holding the ice cup in his hand to pay homage to the glass coffin behind him, and then passed the ice cups to other people one by one.
Wen Rong rolled his eyelids, and after a long time, it turned out to be a magic stick!He knew why these people were attracted here. He guessed that they were the kind of people who believed in the existence of "awakened ones". Maybe some of them had old people who had awakened abilities and were later abandoned by fools. of.The old man in the lead should be a descendant, and he still has a little bit of ability, so let's use this ability to bluff people.
He lacked interest and turned to leave. The tourist A who left before stood behind him and looked up like him. It seemed that he did not leave immediately because of curiosity.
"They are just a group of swindlers who use the name of Your Excellency the Führer to make money." The two walked out of the museum together along the path. Tourist A looked back, his expression full of sarcasm.
"Then, do you want to call the police?" Wen Rong didn't know the laws here very well, so the liar should be arrested.
"It's useless to catch them, they'll be fine as long as they speak in unison. The more mysterious things these days are, the more they can deceive people." Tourist A glanced at Wen Rong again, tentatively : "Are you, an admirer of that gentleman?"
"Yeah!" He adores him and loves him.
"Me too. If you are interested, don't believe this. Go and look for old books and materials, preferably old books about history from 80 years ago." Tourist A said carefully, for fear that the person in front of him and He's not really a fellow man.
"Thanks, I'll look for it."
While talking, the two walked to the circular garden and looked in the direction of the garden almost at the same time. I wonder if that tourist B has walked out of the garden maze?
"That's my classmate, we came out to play together." Tourist A saw that Wen Rong was looking in the same direction as himself, and realized that he had the same thoughts as himself, "Let's go outside and have a look, if he comes out Will wait for me outside."
The two continued to walk out.
Tourist A continued to introduce: "Almost every holiday, there are various organizations that use non-governmental academic and cultural research to engage in such confusing behaviors. Today's group should belong to the 'Lingyue Organization'. They They are all theological fanatics. It is very strict to enter them. The website requires a membership code to open. You should be an outsider who saw their leaflet and was notified to watch the ceremony. This is the easiest way for them to attract basic members I suspect that there may be chemicals in the ice glass that the old man is holding, something that accelerates heat release and can turn liquid into a solid. This is what they regard as a mysterious power."
Wen Rong didn't respond.He believed most of what the man said, but he disagreed with the last old man's statement that he changed the liquid into a solid.
But it doesn't matter, Wen Rong took out the card he received before and gave the enthusiastic tourist a look: "I was curious, there is a mysterious logo on this business card, so I wanted to see if it was right You can really witness the existence of mysterious power.”
"This is the logo of the 'Lingyue Organization'. Many people don't know it. I also know a little bit of network technology and accidentally went to their website and saw it. Their organization is currently the most secretive among all non-natural research institutions. , On the surface, they also set up a lot of non-profit organizations to cover them as a shield."
Wen Rong realized that he had met a real master, and what this young man said was similar to what Mo Shi had told him before.
"You don't believe in the supernatural abilities they said?" Wen Rong began to test him.
"Believe it! According to a lot of information currently available, I believe that this ability exists, but I don't believe that people who engage in these stupid rituals can have that ability. I believe that one day because of the development of technology to a certain level, we will be able to pass some kind of The means to obtain such special power."
"What's your name?" Wen Rong admired him a little bit, "Are you interested in setting up a cultural communication company with me to oppose this kind of cultural communication company that hoodwinks people with false theology?"
Tourist A is dumbfounded?ha?He is just a little tourist who came out to see the person he admired during the holidays. Why was he suddenly invited to start a company?However, it seems to be a bit in line with his career ideals.He didn't like those organizations that used the name of his idol to deify him with some pseudo-religious cloak and relied on him to make troubles.
He has studied some previous materials. His idol, the head of state, pays attention to the research and development of science and technology. Many mysterious machines hidden in the museum were invented when he was still alive.The most famous one is the 'Golden Sprinkling Knife'. Unfortunately, there is only a model of that thing on display now, and the real thing is hidden somewhere waiting for further research.
When Kuo Mo arrived, Wen Rong and this classmate Qin Yi had already had a simple conversation about what kind of company they wanted to open, how to allocate shares, where to choose a location, and who to contact for communication.
Kuo Mo listened to their business discussion and stepped aside, waiting patiently.
"Can my classmate join? The one who came with me just now." Qin Yi, as a freshman in society who has just graduated and is still struggling to find a job, because he has such a great opportunity, he will think about it when he is happy. I want to support my classmates.
"But he likes the general, which is different from your position." Wen Rong asked him back.
"...Forget it, it's okay to raise an argument in normal times. Different positions at work are not conducive to the development of work."
When Qin Yi said this, Wen Rong believed that he had seen the right person.Anti-fraud is only the most superficial part of his cultural company, but in fact, he also wants to arrange the communication output of cultural forms one step ahead.
He didn't want one day, after the big guys learned the truth, they would really talk about and worship their family as a god and ghost.
The one in their family is just an ordinary man with advantages and disadvantages.As for why there is such a powerful power, I can understand it with Wen Rong's own thinking, that is, all human beings in this world will gradually have such power, which is a natural improvement of the world itself.When civilization reaches a certain point, it will naturally happen if you want to seek further breakthroughs.The cause may be triggered by the arrival of the end times, and the original result should be that with the end of the end times, human beings embarked on another new, higher-level beginning.
Unfortunately, the situation that should have naturally evolved to that point was artificially contained and forced to retreat.It seems that a pair of invisible hands are holding back the human beings' further self-improvement here, trying to trap them in this dimension forever.
Also, it's not clear what kind of organization that 'Lingyue Organization' is, but he has a vague idea that if he doesn't find a way to deal with the other party from now on, in the future... it may become a big hidden danger.
The conversation was almost over, they were about to say goodbye and leave, Wen Rong looked behind him: "Your classmate hasn't come out yet?"
As soon as the voice fell, I saw that classmate staggering over from a small road, his face was pale, his skin was blue, and his eyes were a little dull.
Wen Rong felt something strange when he was approaching, and Qin Yi beside him had already taken the initiative to meet him.
Wen Rong took a special look at Kuo Mo. He didn't know why he wanted to look at him, but...it didn't feel right.This classmate's breath is not right, and the feeling of the young man who loves to argue is completely different.
