Chapter 111 - The Tempest in the Land of Twilight 02
"Mr. John Connor, I've figured things out, is there anything else you can do, if not, please go back. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Receiving powerful information, Dio smiled elegantly, gently lifted the corner of his skirt, and saluted John, and the appearance of knowledge made the eight-foot man opposite tremble. In the four years of coexistence, whenever the girl behaves like this to an acquaintance, it means that she does not want to see the person's face now. Of course... In Dior's world, there is also the principle of equivalent exchange, and usually in this case, if John wants to continue saying what he wants to say, he needs to satisfy the bad taste of this girl who is full of malice.
In other words, it's an alternative threat.
"Let's settle the score, Mr. John Connor, your strange hobby has led you to express your love for your sister on the radio, and what pups she is now facing and harassment, and your sister is now furious and will want to sink you into the depths of the Atlantic. In addition, Mr. John Connor, the president of the "Scar" company, has repeatedly obstructed her sister's actions, played her sister around with false clues, and at the same time is complacent about her own achievements, the only thing your sister wants to do after knowing about it... Just press your head into cow dung so your stupid head can sober up a little. ”
"That's what you taught me, Dio. You taught me how to deceive people, conceal facts, manipulate impressions, compulsive inducing, cover up clues... Including "Future Eve" and "Jack the Ripper" are all you told me. The reason why I have come this far is all because of you, Dior, and all these events cannot be said to have nothing to do with you. ”
"I didn't teach you how to justify your actions and do whatever you want. Dio sneered.
John looked away helplessly, he felt the cigarette in his jacket pocket, and was about to put it in his mouth, the next moment his eyes flashed, and the cigarette in his hand had disappeared without a trace. He paused for a moment, and immediately turned to look at the desk facing the main entrance, and at some point, the golden goblin had already taken the cigarette that had been snatched from his hand, knocked on Erlang's leg and sat on the desk, and leisurely lit the match. Her long skirt was rolled up above her knees, revealing the pouches and bullets tied to her thighs, as well as her snow-white skin. A strange sense of beauty bloomed from this uneducated girl in words and deeds.
"What does the skeleton have to do with you?" the girl exhaled a breath of mist, and in the smoke, her blue eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, looked directly at John, as if they could penetrate his soul.
John knew that when she uttered such command-like words, there was nowhere to run from him. If he dared to turn away without saying a word, the next second, a .50 Magnum bullet would knock his leg to pieces. She's definitely the one who can do that, and the man has no doubt about it.
“... "John lowered his hand, "As a requirement to exchange technology with the United States, the United Kingdom requires all Skull and Bones members to register in the United Kingdom. The British will do something for them, but in the event of trouble in the UK, any British people have the right to legally kill a member of the Skull and Bones Society. And I jumped at the chance and made a deal with Raman Whitney. The deal is that the Connor family will help the skeletons gain a foothold in the UK, and the opposite... They need to support my experiments and research unconditionally, and keep the Connor family members safe. ”
"No wonder Rahman would be so aggressive in inviting me in, he must be regretting it. Dio snorted.
"Perhaps, but this time... It was I who won, Dior. John sighed and laughed helplessly.
As soon as these words came out, the girl in front of him disappeared again, and the next moment, a huge force came from in front of him, he closed his eyes in pain, and before he could even react to what was happening, the cold muzzle of the gun had already pressed against his chin. The first thing he saw when he came back to his senses was the blue eyes, and Dio grabbed him by the collar and pushed him against the wall.
"Listen, Mr. John Connor, don't put that victorious face in front of me, I'm just not interested in your stuff. If any of my precious "D-10" members had any problems because of you, you would have only one ending. The safest place in the world is nothing more than a joke in front of me, and you'd better keep that in mind. ”
“... You don't look like someone who would cherish your fellow travelers. ”
"But I'm extremely possessive, and those are... It's all mine, whether it's D-10 or my relationships. I don't care what you do, and I'm not interested, and it seems to me that what you're doing is just some stupid behavior to get self-satisfaction, but if you think the so-called "Connor's house" can put any restraint on me, you might as well give it a try, it will be the last time you regret it in your life. ”
After speaking, Dio let go of his hand, she slowly walked behind the desk, sat down in her place, picked up a book and looked at herself, John silently arranged his folded collar, he looked at the girl sitting in the seat, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he wanted to say something, and then sighed, and then changed his words:
"Aren't you interested in all things 'human'?"
"Why, I like humans the most," Dio replied without raising his head, "Humans are completely in line with the benchmark of this world, and the creatures derived from this world, from the body to the mind, to the soul, there is no human being in any conflict with this world. ”
“... Are you saying that the world is as ugly and stupid as humans?" John frowned.
Dio suddenly raised his head, looked at John with wonderful eyes, and snorted softly.
"Are you an idiot? In the vast universe of 380,000 light-years, this is the only planet that gave birth to such a life form, which is fascinating. Humans are stupid and ugly, yes, I think so, but I also said that humans are not such pure things, and the world is the same. Is there any righteousness in the process of killing and devouring each other, and the creatures born in evolution continue to move forward for the continuation of the race? Is there any righteousness in the process of living beings who do not even have the most basic intellect? That is the instinct given to them by the world, and the same is true for human beings. ”
"I don't think humans are beyond animals, but humans are the most consistent beings in this world since the birth of known life. This snowy scene in nature is a vast white expanse, and any life shuddered at it, but from a certain point of view, it is not a beautiful scenery? Volcanic eruptions are natural disasters, but they can see a strange beauty from the eyes of human beings, and this is exactly what makes human beings compatible with this world. Human beings are stupid and ugly, but they are also intelligent and beautiful. Let me teach you one more thing, the difference between 'beauty' and 'ugliness' is not something that can be seen with the eyes, but something that is based on the 'will'. Creatures without sentient beings will not stop to watch the beautiful snowy scenery. ”
"But what you have done for this world, you have not done for humanity. ”
If what everyone wants to do needs to be linked to the world and the so-called "righteousness" of human beings, then human beings would have already moved towards the sea of stars, instead of nesting in this planet, which is too small compared to the universe. What I'm going to do, I have the final say. ”
What did she want? Didn't she think about what her future would hold? Even after four years together, John still didn't dare to say that he knew Dior. Sometimes she feels too conceited to be overbearing, and sometimes she is extremely cautious and takes every step of the way. Maybe either one of them was just the poker face she put on herself, and John could only be sure of one thing, this guy was by no means a kind person.
Dio put down the book in her hand, she walked to the hanger, picked up her coat and draped it over her body, as if she was going out.
“... Where are you going?" asked John subconsciously.
"Find what belongs to me. She replied coldly.
She doesn't have the slightest affection for the country, and she has little interest in the people of the country. All her actions are just for herself, and her mother is undoubted, but in this turbid world, her purpose is very simple. Trying in every possible way to find something "pure", she was not disappointed when she heard that the condition of the fairyland said by Zi Buyu was very different from what she thought. If it's that simple to find, it doesn't make any sense.
Sherlock's figure standing in the wind came into her mind, and even for a moment, she did feel something "pure" from the detective lady who acted for her "desire/desire".
“... What do you think Sherlock Holmes is?" Dior asked after pausing in front of the goal, turning his head.
"Righteous detective, righteous and awe-inspiring. John replied without hesitation.
"Big mistake. She is selfish and will only act for her own desires/desires, and will do whatever it takes to solve cases and "justice". Even if the wrong place is not people or things, but something else, she will still carry on her beliefs. She's the same kind of person as me, John, except that she looks a lot brighter on the outside. 'In the cage called fate, two prisoners look out the window, one staring at the pitch-black earth, the other looking up at the golden star'. ”
She shook her hand, left John alone, and strode out of the room.
