Life Game In Other World-Chapter 1617: Preparation

Bang—

The porcelain doll girl fell from the table to the ground, shattering into pieces.

Then in the next instant, these pieces were instantly restored.

The doll girl jumped back onto the chair and climbed onto the conference table again.

After He Ao entered the conference room, knowing that everyone was going to have a meeting, Sui excitedly climbed onto the table and started playing.

"Is this Sui?" Reid glanced at Sui, who was entertaining herself in the corner of the conference table, and asked softly.

"Yes," He Ao nodded slightly, "after she entered the doll, she became like this, and her mental state became a bit ’excited.’

"Let’s not talk about this for now," He Ao withdrew his gaze and looked at Reid, Chen, and the man with the straight mustache in front of him, and asked softly, "How is the investigation of the missing cases going?"

Chen and the man with the straight mustache also withdrew their gaze at this moment, glancing at He Ao and shaking their heads.

"We’ve gathered all the missing case data from the City Police Bureau and the Federal Bureau of Investigation related to Lorinse Street, excluding possible accidental homicides and cases highly related to gang members,"

Chen raised his hand, pulled out a tablet from the pile of chaotic files on the conference table, and handed it to He Ao, "From six years ago until now, there are about fifty suspected missing cases related to the orphanage."

"So many?" He Ao took the tablet and was slightly stunned.

"These are just the reported cases that are documented," Chen shook his head, "excluding street wanderers and those who went missing near Lorinse Street after coming from other regions but are recorded elsewhere, the ’abnormal’ trigger and occurrence probability is likely not low."

"Living on the streets isn’t easy," He Ao seemed to think of something and nodded lightly, sighing, "especially for those without family."

The man with the straight mustache beside him remained silent.

Meanwhile, He Ao was already quickly flipping through the documents and materials.

Eve was rapidly scanning these case files through his glasses, extracting information, and archiving them.

Soon, He Ao ’finished’ looking at all the documents and returned to the first page.

The ’bang bang’ sounds in the conference room had quietly subsided at some point.

He Ao lifted his gaze and looked at the three people gathered in front of him, focusing on Reid, "What’s your judgment?"

"We haven’t found any ’survivors’ returning from the abnormality, so we can only judge the factors of the abnormal rules through some external characteristics," Chen spoke up.

"We haven’t started a detailed search yet. For now, the common factor we found is that most of the missing cases occurred in the summer," Reid said softly, leaning on the edge of the conference table, "This indicates the abnormal trigger may have some connection with the season, but we can’t rule out whether cases from other seasons just weren’t reported."

He Ao glanced at the summaries and conclusions made by Eve in his glasses and nodded slightly.

"What clues have you gathered?" Reid looked at He Ao and asked softly.

"Water," He Ao pondered for a moment and said softly, "A lot, a lot of water, seeping into buildings."

"What does that mean?" Chen asked with some confusion.

"Perhaps it means ’rain,’" He Ao looked at the tablet in his hand, recalling the ’answer’ he found in the ’corridor,’ and said softly, "There’s particularly a lot of rain in summer. I remember the orphanage building isn’t in good shape. When it rains, water often seeps through the corner gaps."

"In other words, the entry rule requires rainy days?" Reid pondered.

"I’m afraid it’s not just simple rainy days," He Ao shook his head, lifting the tablet in his hand and looking at a file that mentioned ’heavy rain’ in a report, "We can check the weather conditions before and after the times of these missing cases."

"That’s simple, you can directly check it on the meteorological website," Chen took out a tablet and quickly accessed the meteorological website.

He Ao handed the tablet to him so he could look at the cases and search for specific times.

Soon, his search was complete, and he integrated all the data, looking up at the group, "In most of these missing cases, Xiluo City experienced heavy rain a few days before the occurrence."

"Were those people missing during heavy rain?" The man with the straight mustache pondered.

"So, a core entry condition is a heavy rain day?" Reid speculated, "That’s why these disappearances happen suddenly in summer? Because only in summer, Xiluo City has clear heavy rain days?"

"But it’s almost December, where can we find heavy rain days?" Chen rubbed his eyebrows, "In the past few years I’ve been here, it doesn’t even rain at this time."

"How about having people spray hot water to simulate heavy rain?" The man with the straight mustache suggested softly.

"If the entry rule is a large amount of water sprinkling from the sky, it’s possible," Reid responded, "But if it’s ’rainy days,’ then it’s not."

"Are the rules for these abnormalities this strict?" The man with the straight mustache asked hoarsely.

"Not really," Reid shook his head, "Within the rules, there are actually many areas that can be ’flexible,’ but the prerequisite is staying within the rules. Spraying hot water can be considered, temporarily listed as a backup plan."

"Rain happens because the weather is too cold. Do you have any transcendent items or abnormal props that can ’heat up’ the weather?" Chen looked at Reid, "I’ll say first, the Federal Bureau of Investigation doesn’t have any that require wide-range heating."

"There is." Reid replied solemnly.

"There really is?" Chen was slightly surprised.

"There is an anomaly that can produce a short-term heating effect," Reid contemplated, "though I’m not sure if it will work."

"If the temperature is increased, how do we make it rain?" The man with the straight mustache asked softly.

"Artificial snowfall can be done," He Ao quickly added, "Once snowflakes are near the ground and melt in high temperatures, they will form raindrops."

"That can work," Reid nodded slightly, looking at the man with the straight mustache, "You can contact the meteorological department for localized artificial snowfall."

"I’ll give it a try," the man with the straight mustache nodded, "Not sure if it will succeed."

"It should work. The cloud cover over Xiluo City is quite thick today," Chen said, "There was even a bit of snow in the morning."

"Okay, when should it happen specifically?" The man with the straight mustache looked at Reid.

"At night, preferably at night." He Ao interjected.

Reid raised his head and looked at He Ao.

He Ao lifted his bracelet and displayed the news on it, which was the news of the orphanage fire, "That fire occurred at night."

In the aforementioned case files, those involving rain mostly mentioned that the missing person went outside at night or close to nighttime when they disappeared.

Bang—

At this moment, a quiet sound echoed behind the group.

Everyone turned their heads.

He Ao shifted his body, looking behind Reid.

Sui, who had reassembled into the doll, had climbed up from the ground, gotten onto the desk, and looked in He Ao’s direction with an akimbo stance.

During the heated discussion, she didn’t continue playing ’falling games’ but instead tidied up most of the messy files and equipment on the table.

Arranged neatly.

He Ao looked at her ’See how amazing I am’ expression, smiled, and gave her a thumbs-up.
