Chapter 184: The Interweaving of Light and Darkness (6)
A piece of dusty past was excavated, and the once clueless lines began to be densely entangled, gradually forming a huge net with clear veins, and in the faint lighting firelight, both sides tried to clear all the details in this net, and found information clues in their favor. At this time, Hua Lian accepted the reality of the Anomalous One, and she realized that in the original sin of the former East Island Survivor Organization, there was a person who had obtained the ability after the destruction day, and this person was now dead, and Morad died at his hands.
Chang Ji said, "Didn't the Holy Church have this news?"
Hua Lian shook her head slightly and said, "At least I don't know. β
Chang Ji smiled: "In this way, you came to the East Island alone without any clues, if you didn't meet us, you could only visit in the dark in this ruins." β
Hua Lian said: "When I came here, I didn't give up too much hope, I just wanted to be able to feel the breath of this land, after all, this is..."
Chang Ji said: "It seems that you are also a person with deep affection, and you have not let go of things after so many years." β
Hua Lian said: "Because I haven't learned the truth for so many years. With that, his gaze swept to Hugo, and Hua Lian could see that Hugo did not tell all the truth, although he already knew the cause and effect of Morad's death, Hua Lian wanted to know more details.
Not only does he want to understand the process of Morad's death, but he also wants to explore the deeper secrets behind it.
Chang Ji said: "There is enough information for you, now you have to answer my question." Do you know why the Tsukishima military didn't rescue us and poisoned us survivors?"
Hua Lian said: "After the East Island Incident, the incident has attracted great attention from the whole world, especially in the early stage of the destruction of the incident, its vision video was wildly circulated on the Internet, although the government later used the Skynet system to completely delete and block these video materials, but there are still many people who witnessed the initial appearance of the matter, and for a time the talk of the coming of the end was very loud. In addition, the number of survivors of the former residence of East Island is huge, and their attention to East Island is also extremely high. Therefore, at that time, all the official departments of Tsukishima were in an extremely tense state of operation, and even the Holy Church, which we had never been concerned with mundane matters, was inevitably involved. β
"I hadn't entered the Templar at the time, so I didn't know much about the core secrets. β
Chang Ji sneered: "A disaster caused no one to survive in the entire city, and there has never been such a time in the entire history !!of mankind. No matter how stupid the world is, how can they be deceived by Bemeng!"
I didn't want Hua Lian to shake his head and said: "Actually, there are survivors in the East Island Destruction Day, and the number is about a thousand. β
"What?"
Hearing this, both Hugo and Chang Ji exclaimed in unison, they didn't expect that there would really be so-called survivors on the East Island, and the number was as high as thousands.
Hua Lian said: "This number of survivors is the number given by the government three days after the destruction of the East Island, and then the government has compensated them in the most generous way. β
Chang Ji said: "If that's the case, then the situation of the destruction of the East Island is also told by these survivors!" Hua Lian nodded lightly.
"These people deserve to die!" Tsuneji said angrily.
Compared to the Tsukishima soldiers who raised their butcher knives at them, Tsuneyoshi hated those villains who distorted the truth, and this kind of soul blow was the most tragic and fatal.
Hua Lian said: "The truth of history is often not written by the experiencer, otherwise there would be no need for historians in this world." β
Chang Ji let out a long sigh of relief, the anger in his heart had accumulated too much, and many things could no longer make Chang Ji feel angry.
Hua Lian pulled the topic back and said: "As the biggest security guarantee on the Tsukishima mainland, the main direction of the Templar's work is to prevent the occurrence of some internal and external troubles. β
In this way, three years have passed, and the destruction of the East Island, which shocked the world, began to fade out of people's vision and was gradually forgotten. β
At this time, the military came up with a plan to conduct a scientific investigation of the then sealed East Island to further investigate the cause of the destruction day. β
Chang Ji sneered: "Scientific investigation? Is it enough to use dozens of combat mechs for scientific investigation?"
Hua Lian said: "Of course, the so-called scientific expedition project is just an official fig leaf, and many forces are well aware of it, especially its motives for asking for help from the Templar are even more suspicious. However, I don't know if there was any secret communication between the military and the knight chief, and whether the conditions were met. β
After a pause, Hua said pitifully: "At that time, I had just entered the Holy Church, although I had some doubts about the content of this plan at that time. I didn't think much of it though. In particular, I firmly believe in Morad's quality..."
Speaking of this, Hua Lian frowned a little painfully, perhaps he recalled the moment of separation with Morad, he once thought it was a short and sweet parting, but he didn't want to end up being separated forever.
Hugo and Tsunegi didn't have any sympathy or pity, and if the man named Morad had been lucky enough to come down to the village, I'm afraid that even Hugo and the two would not be able to sit here today.
"To some extent, you and we are both victims of the Tsukishima military, but we are in a very different position. β
Hua Lian said: "When I learned the news of Morad's death, my whole body was about to collapse. I didn't believe everything I heard until the moment I saw Morad's body. Speaking of the most desperate and sad moment, Hua Lian's emotions calmed down, and the sadness could not be heard from his voice.
The room was quiet again, and the three of them didn't seem to have much to say at this moment, too many questions to find out, but not at this moment.
After a while, Hugo suddenly spoke: "So what is the purpose of your coming to the East Island this time? No matter how much you miss your fiancΓ©, the Templar will not allow you to enter here without permission." β
Hua Lian said: "It is said that some incidents have occurred in the metropolitan area recently, and the source of these incidents may come from here, so this time the Holy Church has formed a team to enter here, the purpose is to protect several scientists to analyze and investigate here." β
Chang Ji sneered and said, "This reason is really tried and tested! Who knows what you people want to do! Hmph, I think you didn't expect that there would be survivors like us on the East Island now." β
Hua Lian smiled faintly and said, "It's true that no one has thought about this, but others should be able to realize this soon." Chang Ji was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized the problem.
Hua Lian did not enter the East Island alone, she also had an unknown number of companions, and the fact that Hua Lian was trapped here for a long time will soon be realized by her companions, then everyone will know that there are survivors here.
Tsuneyoshi was aware of this earlier, but he forgot about it in the conversation that followed, and when he reflected on it now, he realized that time had passed minute by minute in the time he had forgotten, and the passage of time was extremely unfavorable for Tsuneyoshi and Hugo.
Hua Lian is using a seemingly open-minded negotiation method to gradually regain control of the overall development of the situation. Although he is still tied to a chair, his identity is no longer a mere prisoner.
In fact, this situation was already doomed the moment Hua Lian was captured, and no matter what choice Hugo and Chang Ji made, they would enter an unfavorable state.
"Are you kidding us?" Chang Ji said angrily to Hua Lian.
Hua Lian shrugged his shoulders and said, "Where did this come from, I am now your prisoner." β
Chang Ji snorted angrily, although Hua Lian was a little tricky to a certain extent, but the dominant power has always been in his hands.
Hugo on the side said: "I said a long time ago that one shot to solve her is the best choice." β
Chang Ji said angrily: "Shut up, didn't you pick out all these baskets?"
Hugo said: "But you want to be entangled with this woman for so long, and my clothes are still wet." β
"You deserve it!" Tsuneyoshi said dissatisfied.
Looking at the two of them who were annoyed and angry, Hua Lian smiled and said: "Two gentlemen, now is not the time for you to quarrel with each other, I am sincerely afraid to see that you are hurt and angry because of me." β
Chang Ji hated Hua Lian's cool words to the core, but at this moment he had no other better way to deal with it, and after a moment of silence, Chang Ji said to Hua Lian: "What do you want?" He believed that since Hua Lian would take the initiative to bring up this matter, then he would definitely not want to let the matter go to an extreme. Just like the previous fighting methods between the two sides, what Hua Lian wants is also a bargaining chip in his hand.
"We've been in a stalemate for more than an hour, and according to the Templar's agreement, no matter what I'm doing, I'm going to keep in touch with the organization, and now it's almost time limit, and I'm afraid I'll be forced to locate if I don't open the communication." β
Chang Ji said: "You want to talk to your organization? β
Hua Lian said: "This is not a matter of whether you approve or not, if you don't want to fight face-to-face with the mechs of the Templar next, you can only agree." β
Chang Ji sneered: "Your life is now in my hands, how dare your companions act rashly!"
Hua Lian said: "I can only say that you don't know about the Holy Church, the Holy Church is not an organization that pays attention to the righteousness of the rivers and lakes in the movie, it is the best military institution on the entire continent, and the military has only one vocation, obey orders." So what you envision doesn't hold true in many cases. β
After that, Hua Lian smiled again: "Also, you may have overestimated my value. As a knight of the Templar, you must follow a strict self-esteem of honor, and now that I am a prisoner of your ranks, my value in the Templar has also diminished, and for an organization like the Templar that is full of honor, do you think it will do its best to protect me?"
Chang Ji and Hugo glanced at each other, they didn't understand what Hua Lian said, but from some logical aspects, what he said seemed to be reasonable.
Hua Lian said: "Of course, no matter what, as long as you feel that your life is not too important, you can make this bet with me, but whether it is worth it to do such a thing as life for life depends on your own intentions." β
Tsuneyoshi looked at Hugo again, and he didn't have any good ideas at the moment, so he asked Hugo for advice.
But seeing that Hugo muttered for a while, he got up from the sofa and gradually walked towards Hua Lian, and when he passed by Chang Ji's side, Hugo whispered: "No matter what happens later, as long as there is a slight abnormality, shoot without any doubts." Chang Ji was stunned, and then nodded vigorously.
Hugo walked up to Hua Lian and said to him in a deep voice, "Tell me what to do." β
Hua Lian said, "You can see that there is a three-stage half-moon communication device on the back of my neck, which is specially provided by the inside of the Holy Church. β
"There is an orange-red button on the middle segment, which is activated by pressing the communication device. β
"It's that simple?" Hugo wondered.
"It's as simple as that. β
Hugo narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and after a moment's thought, he turned and walked into the darkness behind him, and a moment later Hugo walked out with a stainless steel spoon in his hand, and then he pressed the spoon against the back of Hua Lian's ear.
"Don't play any tricks on me!" Hugo warned as he tapped his finger to the button.
A series of slight mechanical sounds rang out, and the three-stage communication device completely merged into a half-moon shape, which was tightly pressed against the back of Hua Lian's neck, and there was no room for it.
And Hugo also bit the handle of the spoon with his teeth at this moment, and blocked his ears with his hands. In this regard, Hua Lian and Chang Ji both understood Hugo's intentions, and they wanted to use this bone conduction method to eavesdrop on Hua Lian's call.
Seeing this scene, Chang Ji also directly pushed the bullet into the chamber, and aimed the muzzle of the gun directly at Hua Lian's head, if Hugo gave him a warning, he would inevitably smash Hua Lian's head with one shot.
Although Hua Lian smiled bitterly at this, she also raised her vigilance. He gently closed his eyes and began to try to calm his mind.
A moment later, a voice came from Hua Lian's head, and at the same time, it followed the spoon and entered Hugo's head through his teeth.
"Is it you?"
The voice on the other side of the communication was gentle, and it sounded more polite, like the voice of a young teacher.
Hua Lian said: "That's right, it's me." β
The gentle voice didn't say anything more, but quietly waited for Hua Lian's next words.
"Tonight's night order is: I think, therefore I am. β
The other person replied, "What an interesting sentence, do you know who said it?"
Hua Lian said calmly: "Tarkovsky. β
When Hugo heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, because he knew that this sentence was not what Tarkovsky had said. And what kind of secret is there in this?
