Chapter 154: That's a contact lens, do you believe it?
Uncle Chen suddenly asked such a question, which made Mu Bai's scalp tingle instantly.
He was terrified.
Ever since he first inexplicably entered an unconscious state at the Nine Eyes Bridge and ate a werewolf, deep down in his heart, he had already realized that he might be inhuman.
Whether it is an ordinary person or an awakened person, there will never be a existence that feeds on youkai.
Mu Bai was well aware of this, but he did not immediately accept this fact.
Because he's confused.
Even if he knows that he may not be human, what is he?
No one could help him answer this question, and the only one who had any hope of letting him know what he really was was just nagging in his unconscious state and somehow locking his veins.
Mu Bai has watched a movie called "Happiness Terminal", the movie tells the story of the protagonist on the way to the United States, a coup d'Γ©tat occurred in his hometown, the government was overthrown by the rebels, and then the passport he held was not recognized by the United States government, not only was he denied entry, but the flight back to China was also canceled indefinitely, because his motherland had died.
The protagonist of the movie can only stay at the airport, trying to survive at the airport, and live for nearly a year.
And this movie is based on a true story, the prototype of the film, a person who has a similar situation to the protagonist of the movie, has been at the airport for seventeen years.
This kind of situation is actually quite good, because in the end, you can find a home, even if you are endlessly lonely and helpless, but in the end, you can finally return to the country, and finally ...... Still a citizen of humanity.
But for Mu Bai......
His homeland is prosperous, he has all the legal documents of his homeland, and he will not be stranded at the airport.
But he is not human.
Growing up in human society from childhood to adulthood, receiving all human education, all living habits and ways are the same as human beings, and suddenly he suddenly discovers that he is not actually human......
Feelings of disbelief and overwhelm naturally surged into his brain like a tidal wave, and he could not leave it all day long.
The reason why he was always reluctant to accept this was because he didn't know if he could find a home at the end like the protagonist of the movie, who could wait for the plane that was more than nine months late, but he didn't even have to wait for the plane.
In the place where he died naked before, he found that he shot through the earth with a cold and fierce shot, and the golden mangs hit the atmosphere like an electromagnetic cannon.
If it were just an ordinary awakened person, they would be happy to find that they have such a powerful ability, even though this ability cannot be used for their own use and completely controlled by themselves.
The increase in combat power allows the Awakened to have more capital to survive when dealing with youkai.
But Mu Bai didn't mean to be happy in the slightest.
After a moment of astonishment, all he could feel was confusion.
Immediately, for the first time, he admitted in his heart that he was not human, and then, thinking about all the details about covering up his anomaly, whether it was eating monsters or golden pupils, or predicting the future time to stop plundering, or even such a shocking golden light, it was a strong proof that he was not human.
In order not to be ostracized by the night bureau of the seventh district to which he currently belongs, and in order not to be chased and killed by the secret department as an alien and shouting the slogan "If you are not of my race, your heart will be different", he must hide all this to the death.
Then I met Uncle Chen.
Inexplicably, I helped myself smooth two clean clothes, and inexplicably asked to take a bath, and almost took him to take a meat bath by accident, and then came to the sauna place to take a bath......
Then, Chen Bo asked the question about the eyes being golden.
It was the first being besides himself, other than his blood relatives, to know that he was not human.
A big guy of the demon clan, a big guy whose strength is beyond his cognition.
Uncle Chen's expression was still smiling.
He didn't continue to ask Mu Bai, but watched quietly, smiling silently.
Mu Bai didn't know if the old man's smile in front of him was hiding a knife in his smile, but he pondered that the probability of such a situation was extremely small.
If such a big guy really wants to hurt him or even kill him, maybe just a thought is enough.
It is absolutely impossible for the golden pupil to be useful to the big guy, the distance that can be escaped in the few seconds when time stops can be reached in an instant for Uncle Chen, maybe that golden mang can pose a threat to Uncle Chen, but Mu Bai himself doesn't know how the golden mang is shot, let alone be able to threaten Uncle Chen.
A demon clan boss who wanted to kill him easily wasted a lot of time doing some useless things before asking this question.
Whether it's clean laundry or a meat bath......
All this was obviously meaningless, because Chen Bo should have been able to get what he needed from Mu Bai in 10,000 ways, but he didn't do it.
He chose to talk in a very peaceful way, in a very ordinary way in human society, without exerting any pressure on Mu Bai, let alone any threatening words against Mu Bai.
So, should I talk to Uncle Chen about the golden pupil?
A voice lingered in Mu Bai's mind.
That was after Liu Xiaoyan took him to complete the relevant procedures for joining the secret department, she had repeatedly emphasized that "if you are not of my race, your heart will be different".
Is this statement absolutely true?
Mu Bai didn't know if this sentence was absolutely correct, but he had seen it before, that Uncle Qin, the gatekeeper who had similarities with Uncle Chen and was also unfathomable, had watched the stars with Uncle Chen in that barren mountain.
Later, he saw Uncle Qin, who was lying on the ground unconscious, and Uncle Chen, who was so severe that he made Chi tremble and was teaching Chi a lesson.
It can be judged that Uncle Qin, the awakened person of the Night Bureau of the Seventh District, has a certain relationship with Uncle Chen, and the most recent is the relationship between friends and friends.
So, Uncle Qin, who is also from the secret department and has worked in the night bureau for many years, doesn't he know such a simple sentence as "If you are not from my race, your heart will be different"?
"Maybe there is no such thing as absolute right in this world, and the absolute justice we think of is only based on the camp we are in. β
"For human beings, people kill demons in order to protect themselves, which is a thing that conforms to the hearts of the people. β
"For the demon clan, the demon eats people to feed themselves, which is the instinct given to them by the laws of nature. β
"What's right or wrong? There's no right or wrong. β
Mu Bai's heart was touched.
His instincts told him whether Uncle Chen was good or bad to humans, but he could be very sure that the other party would not do anything against him.
However, what really made him decide to answer Chen Bo's question honestly has nothing to do with it.
"Your parents may not be dead, and to prove it, answer my question first. β
"Your eyes are golden, aren't they?"
Compared with his mother who died in a car accident in junior high school, and his father who said goodbye when he became an adult, Mu Bai felt that some of his obsessions, about not wanting to face that he was not human, and about not daring to expose himself to the eyes of outsiders, were actually unimportant.
He took a deep breath.
"Uh...... Uncle Chen, that ......"
"I said I have a habit of wearing contact lenses, do you believe me?"
