Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 42 Call from the Special Affairs Group (2/10 mass release, seeking followers!)

It must have been because he had already seen many strange and oddly shaped Spiritual Beasts in the Dream World that when he saw the black cat for an instant, Qin Chuan had not reacted.

It was only when the exceptionally hideous black cat gripped the kitten by the nape of its neck that Qin Chuan suddenly snapped back to reality—this was the real world!

Spiritual Beasts only existed in the Dream World.

In reality, such an abnormal animal should not appear!

Was this a congenital malformation, or some kind of mutation that the animal had developed?

If it were the former, then it would be nothing to worry about, but if it were the latter, the implications would be terrifying.

He quickly turned on his phone and aimed it at the black cat, pressing the record button.

The "beep" sound made the already vigilant black cat turn into a dark shadow and flee in an instant, fortunately, Qin Chuan had switched on video recording.

After finishing the recording, he looked at the clear contour of the black cat at the start of the video and nodded slightly.

Not bad, it's clear enough.

After glancing one more time at the now nowhere-to-be-seen black cat, Qin Chuan walked out of the dim alley and uploaded the video to the Dream Realm Forum.

"I'm in Changxing City, ran into a strange black cat on my way home from school. [Video]"

After posting, Qin Chuan pocketed his phone and quickened his steps home.

His mind began to race with possibilities.

If the appearance of the black cat indicated a recent mutation among real animals, did that mean many animals could potentially become like Spiritual Beasts in the future?

For the ordinary people in the real world who hadn't become Transcendents, this was a dangerous matter, after all, death in the real world meant actual death, unlike in the Dream World.

But if Spiritual Beasts did appear in reality, could they be contracted?

Various thoughts bubbled up in his mind, and before he knew it, Qin Chuan had already arrived at his front door.

"Creak~" The neighbor's door happened to open at that moment, and Tongtong, with her mother, stepped out.

"Hello, brother!" Tongtong, carrying her little backpack, greeted Qin Chuan happily, "Tongtong is going to school now!"

"Good, make sure to pay attention in class," Qin Chuan said with a smile as he patted the little girl's head and nodded at Tongtong's mother.

"I heard that high school students started learning the Extraordinary Course today?" Tongtong's mother casually started a conversation, "Is the Extraordinary Course difficult?"

"It's quite hard," Qin Chuan responded earnestly, "but the content taught is helpful for improving abilities, so everyone listens very attentively."

"You'll need to work hard then," Tongtong's mother smiled, "I heard that the knowledge will gradually be made available to societal Transcendents too, your father and I are thinking of learning it as well."

The number of Reverse Sleep Youth Classes, like bamboo shoots after rain, was growing more and more.

Students like Tongtong, who were under 15 years old and thus not suitable for entering the Dream World, had gradually moved to the Reverse Sleep Youth Classes.

Their classes started at eleven at night and ended at eight in the morning, which included not just studying but also other recreational activities, more a nursery than anything else.

In the Reverse Sleep Youth Classes, there was only one thing to be careful of, and that was not to let the students doze off.

The biggest limit for such classes currently was the number of teachers.

Teachers willing to give up the opportunity to enter the Dream World were far too few.

Luckily, many senior teachers who had underlying medical conditions that made them unsuitable for the Dream World stepped up and took on this work.

Now that Tongtong had adapted to the reverse sleep schedule, her parents no longer had to stay up all night with her. They both had become Transcendents, perhaps the incident with Zhang Zhe had instilled in them a sense of crisis, and the couple took the matter of improving their abilities very seriously.

However, they didn't know that the hero who played a key role in the capture of Zhang Zhe lived next door.

Knowing that Tongtong's mother had to send her daughter to class and then rush back to sleep before midnight, Qin Chuan didn't want to delay her any further. After a brief chat, he saw the mother and daughter off and entered his rented room.

No sooner had he put down his schoolbag than his phone rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, Qin Chuan's expression tensed slightly.

The number was the official phone of the Special Affairs Group.

Why would they be contacting him at this hour?

Soon, he thought of the post he had made on the Dream Realm Forum.

No way...

Despite his suspicions, he picked up the call immediately.

"Hello, this is the Changxing City branch of the Special Affairs Group. We have a few questions to ask you, don't be nervous," a gentle female voice came through the phone.

"Okay, go ahead," he replied.

"We noticed that you posted a discussion thread on the Dream Realm Forum ten minutes ago, is the video in the post filmed by you, or did you repost it from elsewhere?"

"I filmed it myself."

"Can you tell us the exact location where it was filmed?"

"No problem, the filming location is..." Qin Chuan gave the specific spot.

The other end of the phone paused for a moment before the voice spoke up again.

"Mr. Qin Chuan, here's the thing."

"The content of the video you filmed is closely related to some situations currently being investigated by the Special Affairs Group. As the Group has not yet fully clarified these situations, the related content should not be made public for the time being. Your post on the forum will be temporarily censored."

"However, don't worry. Once the Special Affairs Group completes the investigation and makes an announcement, your post will be automatically uncensored."

"I don't care about the post," Qin Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, "but you just said the Special Affairs Group is investigating some situations..."

"So are there many of these abnormal animals appearing?"

The voice on the other end fell silent for a moment, then with a casual tone, "This will be the extent of our phone contact for today. I wish you a pleasant life~"

"Beep, beep, beep~"

The call was hung up directly, and Qin Chuan fell into silence.

Sometimes, not getting an answer is an answer in itself.

It seemed his suspicions matched the reality.

Unaware to humans, animals in the real world had begun exhibiting abnormal changes.

After a glance at the time, Qin Chuan decided not to dwell on it further.

At this moment, he had something more important to do.

Sleep.

"Zixiu, that student of yours is really astute," said a short-haired girl after hanging up the phone, looking at Zhou Zixiu sitting across from her, "He guessed the truth from just a few words."

"Qin Chuan is not that simple," Zhou Zixiu chuckled without surprise, "Did you get the address?"

"Right here," the girl passed a slip of paper with the address to Zhou Zixiu.

"Good," Zhou Zixiu took the slip, "Let's aim to catch it before midnight."

"Don't need help from others?"

"A black cat that's not even at Juvenile Stage Lv1, you think too little of me?"

Zhou Zixiu strode out but then suddenly seemed to recall something and turned his head to look at the girl.

"When's the notice from above going out?"

The girl's expression became serious, "Starting at eight tomorrow morning, the TV news channel, all official media, and the Dream Realm Forum will speak in unison."
