Chapter 305: Exploding Across the Internet, the Official Account Stirs Things Up!

That evening, the news of Chu Chen appearing in London and his Rain Control Technique were like a rocket booster at full throttle, completely blowing up the global internet!

People in this world still have a very shallow understanding of magic; even a professional like Pinkman couldn't understand Chu Chen's operation, let alone ordinary viewers!

The performance had only just concluded when many edited videos began to spread like wildfire across the internet in various countries!

【Breaking! Miracle appears in London! Eastern wizard manipulates the weather!】 — The Independent

【Chu Chen's Rain Control Technique: Is it magic or unknown technology?!】 — The Guardian

【On-site video! Chu Chen! That man is back again! This time he actually used magic to stop the rain in London!】 — Daily Mail

Because it was simply too explosive, the Twitter homepage completely crashed within three minutes of the video being uploaded, with the retweet icon displaying a failed red cross for a long time.

Facebook, Instagram, YouTube... the number one trending topic on all mainstream social platforms was occupied by terms like "Chu Chen," "Rain Control," "magic," and "Eastern wizard," all accompanied by various exclamation marks!

Meanwhile, the public opinion back home was the same!

To seize the traffic, the programmers at the TikTok backend were working under pressure to urgently launch a "Rain Control Technique" special effect that had just been rushed to completion!

Once this effect was released, it instantly ignited a nationwide filming craze.

Various top-tier celebrities, internet influencers, and even some official accounts all uploaded short videos of themselves using the effect and imitating Chu Chen's various poses from this magic show, with every caption expressing extreme shock and worship.

【Is this the legendary magic?】 — The TikTok of renowned international film star Liu Jingwen; the effect she used was the latest rain control effect, and it garnered a million likes in less than ten minutes.

"Are we still in the world we are familiar with?" — The TikTok of famous tech mogul Luo Zhang; his video monologue was filled with a sense of existential doubt.

"I told you long ago he could do magic, you just didn't believe me!" — The latest TikTok update from Huaxia magician Zhao Zhiming!

Besides these celebrities, according to an anonymous royal staff member in London, Yingguo, the King of Yingguo was also very interested in it after seeing Chu Chen's magic performance; even though the performance had ended, he still drove to Trafalgar Square!

At this moment, the world's gaze was once again focused on that genius criminal from Huaxia — Chu Chen!

However, on the second morning, just as the global media were rolling up their sleeves, preparing to dig deep into this "supernatural phenomenon," and various occult experts and religious scholars were jumping out to interpret it, defining it as the "realm of God" or "the resurgence of magic."

At exactly 9:00 AM Yanjing time, the official Weibo account of the North China Institute of Science and Technology, with a near-robotic calmness, posted a very interesting new Weibo post, while tagging Chu Chen's verified real-name account:

"Congratulations to our school's doctoral student, Chu Chen, for successfully completing the public experiment of 'Directed Traction of Macroscopic Quantum Entanglement States and Dynamic Configuration of Water Molecule Cluster Levitation' at Trafalgar Square yesterday afternoon, London time. The relevant data collection is complete and the expected experimental goals were met. This project is jointly supported by our school's Quantum Physics Laboratory and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. 【Applause】 【Applause】"

Behind the text, they even attached a standard-format "Experiment Success" congratulatory image with white text on a blue background, as plain as an internal school notice...

The official Weibo of the North China Institute of Science and Technology often stirs things up; this is a feature of how they run their official account. No matter the trending event, they can always find their own angle and then offer their own perspective.

This time, the Rain Control Technique was no exception.

Due to the high level of heat, as soon as this Weibo post was released, it instantly occupied the top spot on the Weibo trending list, drawing much relish from netizens:

【Official account stirring things up?】

【What the hell is directed traction of macroscopic quantum entanglement states and dynamic configuration of water molecule cluster levitation!?】

【Haha, laughed myself to death!】

【This official account is so entertaining!】

【Impressive, my brother!】

【Is the person running the Weibo account born after 2000?】

【So full of life!】

As the heat rose, this Weibo post, like a silent nuclear bomb, was completely detonated amidst the various noisy and boiling trending topics!

It completely petrified all the netizens who were arguing about whether Chu Chen was a "reincarnated god" or an "alien visitor"!

【???????????】

【Directed traction of macroscopic quantum entanglement states and dynamic configuration of water molecule cluster levitation—I recognize every word, but I don't recognize them when put together! How strange?!】

【I thought he was Harry Potter, but you tell me he's Einstein? Maybe even more outrageous than Einstein!】

【North China Institute of Science and Technology: Basic operation, don't be surprised.】

【So... that wasn't actually magic, it was science? Science that we mortals aren't worthy of understanding?】

【I now seriously suspect that the laws of physics on our side are not quite the same as the ones on Chu Chen's side...】

【Hahahaha! @PeppaPig, really laughed to death!】

Meanwhile, while the outside world was clamoring, the atmosphere in the Expert Group was not so relaxed!

Inside the conference room of the London Metropolitan Police Service, smoke was swirling.

The people beside the conference table remained silent for a long time, each person's expression very solemn, as if they were thinking about something.

Just like that, two minutes passed.

Li Changyu finally spoke slowly: "Right now, the voices on the internet are very heated. I heard that even the King of Yingguo has become a fan of that guy, and many netizens are flocking to it. I really can't figure out how he escaped? Could it be that there was a loophole in our police deployment, which gave him the opportunity?"

Hearing Li Changyu say this, Wesley picked up the pipe on the table again and lit it very skillfully:

"That's impossible. After he disappeared, our people conducted a detailed search of Trafalgar Square and the roads in several surrounding blocks, and we didn't find a trace of him at all, not even a footprint..."

After he finished speaking, Margaret took over his words and said: "I don't believe anyone can truly disappear into thin air. We must have overlooked some details, which is why we fell into a misunderstanding. I think we might as well make a bold guess: perhaps he never left the scene at all?"

"Never left the scene?" Liu Xuemin asked in confusion.

"That's right. As long as there is a scene, there must be traces. If there aren't any, then the suspect never left the scene at all; he might have been right among us at the time..."
