Chapter 172

"Mianyue Yihime, I ask you this question very seriously. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" On the holographic screen, although Shiki Yingji's face looked no different from usual, her anger could be heard from her voice, "Has Yuedu deviated from your original beliefs? Now, does the underworld have to consider terminating the cooperative relationship with Yuedu, or even preparing to go to war?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ All of a sudden, you're saying something dangerous. Frightened by these two words, Mianyue Yiji touched the recast knife that had just been sent over today, "Yuedu is at war with the underworld......? Terrible situation. Why did you suddenly mention this in today's contact?"

"Why, you're asking me why?" Slightly angry, Shiki Yingji twitched her eyebrows, and the movement of correcting the document in her hand quickly stopped, "Maybe you are the only one in this world who doesn't know why. Why, who, after issuing a request for assistance, deviated from the original mission plan, and now even sheltered the mission objectives that should have been obliterated. What's worse is that the principle of neutrality that was agreed upon by both sides from the birth of the Underworld and the Moon Capital in order to carry out the idea has completely disappeared?

"Regarding the former, that's what I should protest to you, Shikihime. I distinctly remember that I sent an invitation to the Underworld for assistance in the name of a private person, but when I found out the facts and wanted to stop the action, the Underworld has been pushing forward the process of the mission without authorization - please don't forget, maintaining the antiquities is the work of the Moon Capital, not your Underworld, you just need to take care of your own affairs!" Although there was no bottom in his heart at all, in order to strengthen his attitude, Mianyue Yiji still pretended to be angry and slapped the table, " As for the latter, everyone knows what kind of state the moon is in now. Appropriate sacrifices are perfectly understandable in order to ensure the continuation of the lunar capital - besides, we have not revealed any information against our beliefs to our new allies at all. The principle of neutrality has never been, and should not be, something we must abide by. ”

"In other words, just like hundreds of years ago, Yuedu plans to completely abandon the management of antiquities?"

"I must state that hundreds of years ago, it was the Underworld that took away the jurisdiction over youkai, gods, and other heritage lifeforms that should have belonged to the Moon Capital, and went further and further down the path of radicalization. Since more than 200 years ago, you have been planning to completely eliminate the existence of mass-energy transformation systems and heritage-type lifeforms from human society, haven't you?"

"In fact, the explosive development of human science and technology did not unfold until we had taken concrete action - if there was something convenient, no one would be willing to really delve into its principle, and even if there were, the real scientific law would have been detoured for a long time because of the distortion of convenience, and this situation has been confirmed by a long history. For the further rapid development of human beings, the 'heritage' of the mass-energy transformation system and the heritage-type life form can only be slowly discovered by them through progress, and must not become the foundation of their development, otherwise their theories will become paranoid and absurd, and completely lose their universality. This is also agreed by the monthly side. ”

The argument suddenly developed into a stalemate. At this time, Mianyue Yiji suddenly wanted Ge Yiwei, the guy who had just become his "assistant" during this time, to appear. That guy's eloquence is pretty good, if you can come over and help......

Unfortunately, this kind of thing can never happen. First of all, although the communication with the four seasons is a nominal "private communication", it is also related to the relationship between the moon capital and the underworld that has lasted for tens of thousands of years, and those who are not of sufficient level must not be able to observe. Besides, Ge Yiwei was originally the "mission target" in the argument between the two people, how could he be allowed to appear at such a time?

"In short, in this matter, the underworld has completely overstepped its authority. The underworld has never had the right to judge whether the moon capital has fulfilled its duties competently. Therefore, since the jurisdiction over the time machine is on the side of the moon, the underworld has no right to interfere with our co-optation of time travelers. …… Or, if you think you're good, how about snatching the time machine away?"

Mianyue Yiji believes that this sentence will poke at the sore spot of Shijiyingji at once. Since ancient times, for the "heritage" including "antiquities", the attitude of the underworld and the moon capital is not very compatible in some places, and the mentality of the underworld trying to govern all the "heritage" is not only the first day, but the unique advantages of the moon capital make them have to give up a large part of the authority, which is also equivalent to the crack in the relationship between the moon capital and the underworld, which should have been running well. It seems that this rift has now widened to the point where it cannot be ignored......

While thinking about these important matters related to the political situation and waiting for the response of Siji Yingji, Mianyue Yiji picked up the cup and took a sip of the brown sugar water contained in it - the brown sugar in it was sent by Ge Yiwei a few days ago. Feeling the warmth in her stomach, just as she was about to further discuss the rationality of Yuedu's inclusion of Ge Yiwei and his party, a call that was urgently inserted suddenly made her confused:

"Captain, the humans of that earth killed three moon rabbits who worked with him and escaped from his workplace!"

What!?Ge Yiwei!?ran away!?he......

The cup containing the brown sugar water fell to the ground and shattered.

Ge Yiwei no longer knew what the sisters surnamed Mianyue thought of him. If, based on his recent performance, it is understandable that Mianyue Yiji has relaxed her guard against him, but how can Mianyue Toyohime, who looks like an old fritter, let me go so easily? Is it because the use value is too low? Isn't it, if the use value is too low, then just kill me...... She's not like she's a casual person for her sister's sake......

Holding the pistol that still couldn't be returned to Lingmeng in the end and running on the streets of Yuedu, Ge Yiwei thought like this.

Although theoretically unnecessary, the interior of the moon capital simulates the existence of day and night, and it is not known whether the moon capital is trying to imitate the work and rest of the people on the ground (considering the high pride of this society itself, this is not very likely), or whether the moon capital itself was developed from humans (according to the "myths and legends" heard from Gensokyo, this should be true). Now, the location of the moon capital in this area is "night", so it is very easy to escape.

"Fortunately, there is no night market or anything in Yuedu, if it is so lively in the city, how can I run......" turned on the flashlight and moved quickly on the smooth road although there were no street lights, Ge Yiwei whispered to himself, "But...... Don't you even have patrols?"

This is a bit of an anomaly. Even in ancient times, the feudal dynasty had a watch, but now it is so quiet that it should be absolutely impossible to use your brain a little. Could it be that he stepped into a game that someone else had set up a long time ago?

This thought suddenly sent chills down Ge Yiwei's back. If someone sets up a game, then this person's eight achievements are Mianyue Fengji. But what kind of situation did I need to escape?

The exact location of the time machine - To be exact, the exact location of the "center" of the time machine has been ascertained using the authority of Mizuki Ichi. Ge Yiwei didn't understand why the word "central" was in the document, because he had the impression that the time machine should be something that could be easily transported. Could it be that the time machine in the moon capital is now in a state of sub-packing? It's incredible.

"There are more and more mysteries...... I really hope that this time I can solve it in one go. Some people made a time machine a long time ago, and then locked down the system, and then a criminal used a wide area brainwashing system to commit a crime, and these aliens slowly ...... Is it perished or what's wrong...... Wait, aliens?"

Originally, he just planned to roughly sort out the information he already knew in the process of escaping, but the sudden sense of disobedience made Ge Yiwei stop and began to try to recall the ambiguous memory: "Alien......s? Well...... Something seems wrong......"

Something definitely went wrong. Browsing materials are skimmed so quickly that some details are not overly concerned at all. Think about it, where there should be a contradiction...... Yes.

"Did I remember wrong?" along his forehead, Ge Yiwei's cold sweat suddenly flowed, "How can I remember that all the guys in it call themselves all ...... 'humans' and 'we humans' and the like...... Is this a good thing that humans themselves do?"

Or is this self-designation just a self-designation, and has nothing to do with the current human race? In fact, they have eight legs, six noses, seven ears, and so on...... When you get to the place, there should be a relevant database, right? I hope to find something reliable...... The top priority is to get to the target location as soon as possible. Bosses should be working on it too. According to the information gathered in the past few days, the long-distance public transportation in the moon capital uses teleportation stations, and the place to reach the target location is ...... Well, it should be this way.

Uh-huh......!

"According to the captain's orders, we will take you back, assistant!

The sudden appearance of the already ambushed pursuers from around the corner did not make Ge Yiwei panic, but gave him a sense of peace of mind - of course, it still hurt terribly to be punched in the stomach. Pretending to be in pain, he knelt on the ground, and when the Moon Rabbit in front of him was about to forcibly pick himself up, the muzzle of the Type 98 gun went directly to the chin, and three bullets rushed out of the opponent's head with the pull of the trigger. Seeing that something was wrong, the two-month rabbit who was working together behind him immediately rushed up to carry out further coercive action, but suddenly was hit on the head by something and fell to the ground.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Old Mr. Auston?" and some of his eyes were not convinced, Ge Yiwei turned his head and saw the figure of the old gentleman who pressed his hat. He was still the same as before, carrying the handbag in his hand: "Hello, non-observer. For me, this is the first time you and I have met, but it doesn't seem to be the case for you anymore. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Please don't be so polite. I owe you another life. Smiling a little helplessly, Ge Yiwei shook his head, but at the same time became vigilant, "The observer sent you? By the way, the student who led the head of the time project is also called the 'observer' in the file...... Could it be him?"

The answer is in front of you, but it would be rude to try to get the answer without moving forward. Shaking his head, Auston replied with a smile, "But, it's an honor that this time the Observer has asked me to play the role of guiding you to the answer." When you get there, I'll explain to you what you should know. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's uncomfortable. I remembered, five years ago, no, to be exact, it was the same last time, for the truth is the state of my answer to Mr. Lin. I always seem to be doing something stupid, just bury these old things completely, and humans can live their lives without the intervention of these funerary things. ”

"But you're already aware of the truth about the 'burial goods,' aren't you?"

…… Is it really the fault of the human race itself? Who is the observer, where is it, and why does he know what seems to have happened to me?

It's really an empty "funeral item". At the beginning, I was ashamed to say to Sanae that I wanted to grasp the "present", but it turned out that I kept wiping my ass with the "past". Suddenly thinking of this, he clenched the gun in his hand, and Ge Yiwei pursed his lips. But if you think about it, human beings must have an eye on the future rooted in the past, and then take practical action to "grasp the present". It's just that the "past" on which my actions are rooted is a little too old. And the future I'm looking at may be too futuristic - the impact of the brainwashing system, the impact of the time machine or something...... Sure enough, it's just a willful spiritual cleanliness.

"Then please advise me on the rest of the journey, sir. ”

"Glad to be there. Tapping his hat lightly, Alston replied.

It will be over soon. Sitting on a chair that was luxuriously decorated and comfortable to sit on, Sakura Okazaki felt a little uneasy in her heart. But the uneasiness was quickly erased: she thought back to all the things she was supposed to do, and realized that the whole process was actually surprisingly easy. Taking a few deep breaths again, she lifted her wrist and looked at her watch.

There is still half an hour left before the start of the meeting. Half an hour later, the current president of the United States will be invited by his secretary of state to meet with Sakura Okazaki in this remote villa to discuss the accident at the Johnson Space Center 2 laboratory. According to the script, half an hour after the meeting, Mr. President would be assassinated. The operation carried out by the former American special agent, Ackerman Adams, may also be accompanied by the fragrance of unknown people. That's the whole plan.

There should be no problem. It was a private, secret meeting, and security was certainly lax than usual. The assassin is a master of the subject, and the place is secretive β€” that is, after the president's death, the secretary of state can unhurriedly falsify evidence that can lead in any direction.

"Please tell me I didn't do anything wrong, grandma......" Sakura Okazaki whispered to herself, holding an old photo to her chest. Suddenly, the image of Yuka Kazami was forcefully inserted into her mind, causing her to feel a palpitation. However, the youkai should still be bewildered by the mystery of the Freemason......

…… There's nothing wrong with that, right?

"I'm going to touch up my makeup. Saying this to the attendants standing behind her, Sakura Okazaki stood up. She was now trying to figure out where the bottle of medicine to stabilize her spirit had gone.

It is said that Yumemi Okazaki, who is a genius and is plagued by mental illness, also takes that medicine. But that's just talking. Actually, Yumemi Okazaki does not have any medical record of mental illness. And that supposedly source......

It was Sakura Okazaki who spread this story.
