Chapter 44: Bohemian Rhapsody
After a "beep", the lights in the room disappeared, leaving only the smooth surfaces of two symmetrical gray metal doors, one south and one north, reflecting a faint fluorescence from nowhere. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info The Van Tin people are all gone, and powdery particles are rising from the bodies of those lying on the ground, and they seem to be translucent at a very slow rate.
Ji 87 stuffed me with a bag of plastic balls, and then beckoned to the people who were still standing, and motioned for everyone to follow him to the north door. I, on the other hand, need to go through the south gate in the opposite direction from them, which is the one that PB62 brought me in, as I had previously arranged.
Passing through the door, I should have seen a staircase going down, but as soon as I came up, I was placed in a roomβa box sized room, with a door on each of the six planes.
"Ji 87, the layout has changed, I don't know which door leads to the second teleportation room. It's ...... up and down, left and right, front and back."
"--Pick any one and go in." Ji 87 didn't wait for me to finish.
"Okay."
I tried to walk towards the opposite door, but the door under my feet opened on its own, and I fell straight down.
When my feet touched the ground again, I opened my eyes and found that I seemed to be hitting a crooked blow, and that it had landed in a large circular teleportation room.
"Looks like the right choice."
"No, you will land in the same place wherever you choose."
"So how do I get out?"
"Complete the task first, and someone will pick you up."
I shrugged. According to Ji 87's plan, my mission tonight is to enter as many rooms in the First Sector as possible for an hour to cause trouble, and then retreat. This obviously doesn't seem like an important task, maybe the core of tonight's plan will be handed over to Duan 28 and Tin 16, who didn't show up all night.
When a person stands in the middle of such a circular teleportation chamber, I can't help but have the illusion that the next moment all the doors will open together and all sorts of monsters rush in. I was inexplicably reminded of the strange church on Earth, even though there was no resemblance between this place and there.
I walked to the edge of the room and pushed open one of the doors as softly as I could.
"Are you sure there's no one here now?" I asked Ji 87 through the chip.
"I'm not sure."
"Hey."
"I can only be sure that there is no one in most of the rooms. Did you open the door? β
"Hmm."
Inside, a bustling commercial street suddenly crashes into view, dense billboards make the otherwise spacious street look very narrow at first glance, and the design of the store signs is also very old-fashioned, changing the font color back and forth in the most traditional way. The models are still covered in winter furs in the windows, the trailer of a movie from twenty years ago is playing on the big screen in the upper right corner, the smell of freshly baked bread is coming from the bakery, and the restaurant next door is mechanically barking. All this was probably a common scenery more than ten years ago, except that there were no tourists or clerks here.
"Throw a ball in and change the door."
I did the same, and when I got back to the teleportation room, I took off my coat and placed it at the door of the room as a marker.
"Can you tell me the purpose and plan of this operation now?"
In the second room is a sunny beach. I have a feeling that my location is like a library of background assets.
"I go to the first squad dinner every month, and it started out purely for fun. Until one time, a girl and I boasted that I had a way to take the Milky Way water out for her to drink, only to be discovered by the first team when I tried to do so. It wasn't a big deal, but they said I didn't respect the system and 'invited' me out of the party. Later, I inquired and found that no one had ever succeeded in bringing the Milky Way out of here. No matter how clever you hide it, they can find out. β
"So?"
"Of course I'm not going to give up. I noticed that there was a surplus of the Milky Way Water every time, so that if someone accidentally spilled the wine, it could be 'replenished' in time, so I paid attention to the Milky Way Water. I began to consciously try to remember my state after drinking the Galaxy Water, but found that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get that memory back, so it was obviously unrealistic to try to steal it after drinking, but in other words, I could steal it while everyone else was unconscious. Finally, I found an opportunity to pretend to drink with my head up, but in fact I spilled all the wine on my body, and then learned to fall to the ground in a groggy state. β
"And then you found out the truth?"
"No, someone from Team 1 found out that I didn't drink the Galaxy Water, and I was kicked out again."
"Huh?"
"It's weird, why don't they pass out when we drink the same amount of galactic water?"
"Because you don't drink the same?"
"It could also be because they have antibodies, or because they have taken some medication beforehand for prevention. After my careful observation later, I found that the people who distributed the Milky Way Water were very particular, among the members of the first team, the wine of the first batch of immigrants was all personally distributed by Xiao 339, but after careful comparison, the two kinds of Galaxy Water are not different, at least in my opinion, they are exactly the same, the only difference is that Xiao 339 will only take the top layer of Galaxy Water from the cart every time. So what is the purpose of one group of people deliberately feeding another group of people a drink that can cause them to lose consciousness? I can't think in a good direction. What's more, I feel a strong sense of happiness every time I drink a drink, and the first team is wise and powerful, and it is extremely honorable to join it......"
"You think that's a brainwashing drink?"
The third to tenth rooms were all of a variety of residential areas, and I was starting to get bored.
"I don't rule out that possibility. But to prove it, I need at least four helpers. First of all, there needs to be a person who drags the MP7 who is taking care of the drink, and one person needs to be the one who makes the members of the first team highly vigilant, and one person needs to replace the drink when the MP7 is distracted, and any one of the three people can take the Galaxy Water. The problem was that only the first team could attend the dinner at a time, and most of the people who were invited occasionally would not be caught by me, so not only could I not find a helper, but the implementation of the plan itself was also risky for me. Besides, there is a possibility that I guessed the wrong answer, and then there would be a need for Alternative B, and Alternative B would require a larger number of people. β
"So you found a chance this time?"
"Yes, I've always thought that investigating the galaxy water would be able to find out the true purpose of the first squad, especially after they have stabbed so many moths now, but Tin 16 proposed another plan to me."
Tin 16, that's a surprising name.
"Tin 16 doesn't seem to be the type to take care of these things."
"He has a purpose. As we all know, the entire First Sector is under the surveillance of the First Squad, and after entering this area, your information will be transmitted to the First Squad through the chip, and they will know at any time who has entered the First Sector. At the same time, every message you send and receive in Zone 1, any conversation that goes through the chip, they can be monitored. Therefore, anyone who wants to explore the secrets of Team 1 in any form will not succeed. β
"But now the people of the first squad are all stunned by their own drugs? Ah, I think I've found another teleportation room. β
"Let's go inside."
I counted the 32 rooms that were exactly 32 rooms away from the room I had marked, went back and picked up my coat, then counted back to this one, pushed the door in, and continued to repeat the "task" I had just done.
"I've come to understand that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and you have the means to get to the details of District 1, but what's the point of what I'm doing now?"
"The bag I gave you is full of discarded bracelets that Fa 01 took from the Backhand Bracelet Association, and when the people of the first team read the intrusion data, they will find that there are traces of outsiders intruding in so many rooms, which is enough to delay them for a while."
"It's a trivial job."
"By the way, we've all evacuated safely with the Milky Way Water."
"Huh? Leave me alone? β
"No, there's Duan 28 and Tin 16."
"Where are they?"
I started to lose more and more interest, and I didn't bother to look inside when I pushed the door open, so I just threw the ball in.
"Duan 28 was looking for the control room of the sleeping pod, and Tin 16 was looking for MP7's pharmacy room, but they took off the bracelet and entered the first area after receiving information that the first team had drunk the galaxy water. Now the bracelet has been recovered by Law 01, so I can't contact them until they meet. You know, Tin 16 insists that Cloud 09 was drugged to death by the first squad. β
"Didn't the first team claim that the group of people who didn't come back are being treated?"
"It's up to you to believe it or not, Tin 16 obviously doesn't believe it, but it would be nice if he could find a treatment room."
"According to you, if there are other people who don't make it to the dinner, then we're all in danger."
"I believe in their abilities, Duan 28 was a secret agent when he was on Earth, and Tin 16 has a lot of experience in the past."
Agent...... It's really hard to associate Duan 28's image of Wei Guangzheng with "agent", I always feel that he and Xiao 339 are the same kind of people, if Xiao 339 is a presidential candidate, Duan 28 is like a secretary.
"Actually, I've always felt that Tin 16 might be more powerful than Duan 28."
"What did he do before?"
"Ask him yourself if you have a chance, if he wants to say it. The little kids who have seen hell are terrible creatures. β
I can't help but think of LL9.
"Wait, the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes, you put me, a pure amateur, in the same dangerous situation as two experts, and let me be cannon fodder?"
There was a leisurely laugh from the other end of the chip communication device, "You have a trump card like the Van Xi Xingren, and you are obviously the safest." β
"That's weird."
It was another teleportation room, and this time I didn't count or mark it, and just pushed the door open and walked in.
"I've heard the M6-2 mention your purpose, so I'm pretty sure they'll stop at nothing to keep you safe. Later, if the situation is not right, I will notify them immediately to rescue you. As long as the Van Tin is present in Sector 1, the information and evidence left here will be completely dispersed by their data, and unless Tin 16 and Duan 28 are caught red-handed by them, the first team will only be able to search for suspects in the bracelets you left behind. It doesn't matter if they can find out about you, after all, you're not an inter-Asian immigrant, and they don't have control over you. β
"M6, where are they now?"
"The galactic water didn't work for them, so they were teleported directly to the Poma Planet's dinner after they drank it."
"That's really polite."
"M6 They seem to have come with the male Van Xi star named R5, and how the dinner itself is not their focus is on, but they can definitely help us a lot by coming to your rescue."
"Okay, anyway, I'm cannon fodder."
It took me most of the circle to finally find a new portal entrance.
"No, no, no, you're important to us."
"Oh. Anyway, I'm running out of balls. β
"You're a little fast."
"I'm not interested in the scenery here, so do I have to wait for Duan28 and them to join you before the Van Xi people show up and take me away? orβ"
My voice choked in my throat.
This time I couldn't throw the ball directly into the room, because when I opened the door, there was an old man standing in the doorway.
βDY247οΌβ
I felt that my internal organs had been pinched, and although this old man did not belong to the first squad, he was also one of the first immigrants, and it was hard to see if there would be any connection between them. If all the conversations between me and Ji 87 were overheard, what would we do if our actions were under surveillance all the time?
Sensing that the situation was not good, Ji 87 immediately interrupted the call.
While I was anxiously thinking about how to excuse myself, the old man in front of me put away his surprised expression and squinted his eyes and grabbed my hand warmly.
"Great, great, I'm worried I can't get out. Oops, you see, I was invited to a dinner party, and I ended up getting lost, I'm really old and useless, can you take me there? β
Is this a disguise or a temptation?
"I ...... I'm lost too. "I decided to go with him first.
"Oh? You're not from Team One. β
"Yes, I wanted to leave early, but I don't know why I didn't need to move, so I was stuck here." The lie went more smoothly than I expected.
"Hey, what can I do?" DY247 still hasn't let go.
"Then, let's find our way together."
"-I don't have to."
I felt someone grab my collar from behind, and the next second, I was back in the teleportation room leading to Sector 1, where Ki-87 was waiting with a cigarette in his mouth.
βM6οΌβ
As Ji 87 said, she appeared very timely, but she didn't even bother to look at me, put me down and turned to leave. In that case, I'm happy to dispense with thanks.
As soon as I reached out and returned the bag to Ji 87, the door to the first district was opened, and Tin 16 walked out with tired steps.
"You're so fast, how's it going?"
Ji 87 immediately greeted him, but Tin 16 just shook his head and threw over a paper ball.
"It's all electricityβ"
Before he could finish his sentence, the door opened again, and a knife pierced his chest from behind, shaking me dizzy. In the next second, Tin 16's body was gone, as if it had never existed.
"Hello."
LL9 withdrew the knife and grinned at me, and I turned my head to look for Ji 87, only to find that he was gone.
