Chapter Twenty-Eight: Karma
As the night darkens, the cars on the road are thinning out, and the abandoned skyscrapers in the West End are lit up dimly, and Osaka seems to have a different face at night. [Full text reading. In the hotel room, Hinti leans sideways, arranges her skirt in front of the mirror, and checks her back for crumpled creases. After she got dressed, she walked up to Lei Yujian, "Give me one." β
"Take whatever."
"No, you can light it for me."
Lei Yujian handed her the cigarette in his hand. Cindy then took the cigarette contentedly, put it between her lips, took two puffs, and then returned it. There was still a lip print on the cigarette, and he took it in nonchalantly, and then smoked, "So, what is the reason for that strange thing you just said?" β
Xindi smiled, "You want to know now." β
"I'm not worried about you yet."
"You shouldn't just worry, but also jealousy and hatred. Mr. Fu completely fiddled with me as a toy, aren't you angry at all? β
He didn't answer.
"Don't you love me, why did you send me to him. Or are you afraid of him, right? After all, Mr. Fu is an absolute big shot. β
The smoke was filled, and Lei Yujian was still silent.
Hindy walked up to him: "You love me, don't you, look at me and tell me you love me." β
"Hmm."
"Then why are you doing this, what do you want from Mr. Fu, what is more important than me." She saw that Lei Yujian was silent, so she sat down beside him, "I'm scared, I know it's only a matter of time before I die, but every time I think of death, I'm still scared." β
"Don't be cranky."
"I was warned like this."
"The people around Mr. Fu are inevitably jealous of you, so you don't have to take it to heart."
"It was the people of the special police who said it. Do you know the man who died in the river a few days ago, he just came to me before he died? β
"What did you say?" Lei Yujian was a little surprised, "He went to look for you that day." β
"I knew it. What the hell is going on, tell me quickly. β
"Have you actually seen that person, you are sure."
"Yes, in Tokita Shinchi."
"I see."
"You're finally willing to talk to me."
He snuffed out the cigarette butt, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it seems that Mr. Fu already knows about my affairs." I'll pour you a glass first. Lei Yujian stood up and walked to the door, pulling out the champagne left by the waiter from the ice bucket, "Mr. Fu does have one thing in his hands, well, to be exact, he is occupying, because he can't control it yet." This state will not last long, and he will not live long. Whether he can control it first or die first, many people are waiting for this result. β
"Is it a hundred days?"
"It's not the problem of the 100-day ghost for a long time, but the place where the 100-day ghost came."
"You mean the other world."
"So to speak. The old world is hopeless," he handed the goblet to Hinty, the champagne rippling, "these are the last legacies of the old world, enjoy." The simulation of the whole world by the Hundred Days Ghost system is almost complete, and we will all usher in that new era, to the other world. β
"You're kidding."
His expression was serious: "It's not a joke, everything is irreversible." The mission of the Central Continental Expeditionary Force has been completed, and now no armed force can confront it. So you can also see that the expeditionary force and the government forces in the background are being dismantled. He spread his hands, "As for the last person left behind, it is the special high police. They were established to ensure the transition from the old world to the other worldβeveryone had to enter the other world through the Whooping Ghost system; Those who are prescient, those who resist, and even those who ask too many questions are eliminated by the special police. β
"You men, you're crazy."
"What do you think is happening in the circle of black holes, where do you think the Central Continent has gone, and disappeared out of thin air? The other side of the world was not built in a day. β
"You knew it when you were in the castle tower, didn't you?"
"Not exactly, that's when I got the information. The fighters that the expeditionary force eliminated to the government army, remember, the bomb told me that there was something wrong with the map, and it was those old maps that guided me. Hehe, I used to be as surprised as you, so I'm going to rule out all other possibilities to prove that this is the only ending, but I don't have the ability, I have to find someone to replace me. β
"Assault?"
"Yes, I want him to remove the false target of the Central Continent for me, the mask of the Hundred Sun Ghost. The Centoulier is the product of this plan, and the cover, which is responsible for creating panic in the Old World, destroying the Old World, and forcing everyone into the system. It's just that the whole process is disguised as an accident. Repeatedly destroying the Hundred Days Ghost is actually peeling off its layers of camouflage. Every step of the way is guided by me, every step. From the South Seas, Osterria, the former United States, and the Japanese islands, his actions accurately eliminated the camouflage of the Central Continent and forced the situation to escalate. Now there may be only one left, the other world, and this is the only truth. He uncovered the conspiracy and contributed to it. What do you think...... Is he really like a 'headless fly'? β
Xindi took a step back, the wine glass in her hand almost falling, "How do you know this, this is, what I said to him." β
"Meng Struck told me that he was distressed, and that he told me what you had said to him in the rose garden. You say that he is like a fly without a head, lacking self, these words make him uncomfortable, he actually cares about you very much, he thinks about these words of yours for a long time, and your departure deeply hurts his heart. He came to me and asked me if I should tell you everything. I told him not to care about your words, because I needed him. Of course, you don't have to blame him for telling me these words, I have always been his best brother. β
She pursed her lips and waved her hand vigorously to hit him.
Lei Yujian grabbed her hand.
"You deserve it too!" She glared at him.
"I knew you were still thinking about him. But you're not innocent, you knew about it when you were in Castle Tower, you destroyed his plane, you got the Centennia tracking pod, you provided him with the Centennia system. You think I don't know where your purchases come from, but those things come from the Komaki Minami factory. Later, every step of his action was your support. β
"You made me do that."
"So you've made your choice a long time ago. Hinty, look at me. He stared into her eyes, "I know it's hard to accept, but you're the same person as I am!" Unlike them, we have never had one choice. You know, we only have one choice, and this shouldn't be blamed. β
Xindi shook off Lei Yujian's hand and sat on the edge of the bed, she felt weak: "Say, then what do you want." β
"Now, it's a foregone conclusion, and you have to be aware of that." He said solemnly, "What I want is to change the role in the final." β
"You want to replace Mr. Fu?"
"It's not a replacement, it should be said that inheritance is more accurate." When he said this, he suddenly laughed helplessly, "After all the calculations, I still couldn't defeat that old monster." You're right, if that high-tech police officer had been looking for you before he died, you and I would have been in danger. β
She gradually calmed down.
"I'll admit you're better than all the women I've ever met, but politics isn't that simple. Mr. Fu was the first person to perceive that the Central Continent was building the world on the other side, and he knew during the First Sino-Japanese War that the Central Continent was going to fundamentally control the world, control everyone's mind, and every soul, so he gambled everything on it - using his own power and financial resources to support this plan. And the Central Continent needed him for this, especially after the war. After all, the Rev Chamber of Commerce is a non-governmental organization that can do many things that the expeditionary force can't. Mr. Fu played with the provisional government of various parts of the South Seas and the Japanese state, and even the Oshu Shogun and the Pan American Entente asked him. Therefore, the Central Continent is very happy to use his power to let the Hundred Day Ghost System quickly spread among the people, infiltrating every corner. β
He looked out the window, "Now, the world on the other side is close to completion, and Mr. Fu's mission is basically over." If it weren't for his imminent death, the special police would have killed him a long time ago. In fact, you have also guessed that Mr. Fu himself knows that time is running out, and he wants to control the other world before he dies, so that he can continue to have these rights in hell; He also knew very well that the special police would act at any time, so he was very vigilant. I'm not surprised at all that he dared to use the special police, but I didn't expect it to be you. Then everything is much easier to explain, you are the woman he chose, and before entering his mansion, the people of the special police will suddenly look for you, so Mr. Fu will get rid of that person. In other words, Mr. Fu has long decided that I am in league with the special high police, and sent you to his mansion in order to obtain information about the final construction of the world on the other side, and then assassinate him. β
Lei Yujian sighed, "It's all over, we have to leave Osaka." I'll send you to Tenia first, where I have my friends, and then we'll figure it out. β
"No, it's not over yet."
"What?"
"Mr. Fu doesn't know you, he hasn't heard your name."
He frowned and pondered, "...... How do you know. β
"I asked myself. I mentioned your name to him when I asked him what kind of woman he wanted, and he said he had never heard of it. β
"My name doesn't matter, but it's possible that he's lying."
"Then why didn't he kill me, nor did he kill you, and Manager Liang didn't have anything abnormal. Besides, I know when men lie. β
Lei Yujian lowered his head and meditated, silent.
Xindi stood up and walked in front of him, with her back to the window: "I'm willing to take this risk and get what you want from Mr. Fu." On the condition that you tell me what it is. β
"Well, maybe you're right. The thing I wanted...... Are you really determined to know? β
"At this point, there's no turning back."
"Well, I don't need to go into details. The post-war 100-day ghost project was run by Mr. Fu, and he had a lot of cards in his hand. I can be more blunt, he's dying, so he's desperate to turn the tables completely β to master the whole other world. Once he succeeds, ** will no longer matter, and the whole world will become his subordinate. No one wants that to happen. So I had to get one thing before he could do it. β
"What?"
"Mausoleum. The mausoleum is the code name for the entrance to the other world, and I want to know what the mausoleum is and where it is. β
"I see, I'll get it." Xindi replied, "I have another request, though. β
"Say, I won't refuse."
"Say you love me."
Xindi grabbed Lei Yujian by the collar, pulled him to her side, and pressed her body against him, "Tell me, say you love me." I'll find you a mausoleum. β
