Chapter 135: Promise
Here is the clinic of the bald doctor.
Liu Ye lay leisurely on the bed and watched the latest news. While it sounds too strange to be on vacation in the hospital, these few days have been a rare time for him this year.
The bald doctor said that as long as they stayed here, they would be absolutely safe, so Liu Ye didn't rush to leave, he chased too hard a few days ago, not only himself, Shi Lan and Vanessa also needed to rest and rest. Because the next days will only be more difficult, and they don't know what kind of danger awaits them ahead.
In fact, just as the doctor said, no one came to find trouble, and his energy seemed to be even greater than Liu Ye imagined.
"Alasβ" The young man, who had recovered to the peak of his physical strength, sighed softly, he rarely needed the help of doctors in his past life, and he had always hated the smell of disinfectant water in the hospital, but he did not expect to become a regular visitor to the hospital this year.
"Don't sigh, can you come out with some masculinity?" After receiving a slap on the head from Vanessa, Liu Ye fell on the small table and let out a long sigh.
"WellβI wonder if it's time to get out of here. Liu Ye raised his right hand in front of his eyes, blocking the sunlight that came through the cracks in the curtains, "You can't stay here all the time to affect other people's business, right?"
"I'm fine, I can go whenever I want, aren't you the most difficult person here?" Vanessa shrugged her shoulders and leaned against the window lattice, her long black, gray and white hair hanging down her hanger-like shoulders, "As long as you're healthy enough to be discharged, we can leave at any time." β
"Do you still want to live like you used to live in hiding in Tibet, panicking all day long, and worrying all day long?" Liu Ye put his left face on the table and said with a pout, "Or you can stay with the bald doctor, I promise you, those people will definitely get the sanctions and punishments they deserve." β
"Shut your mouth, you don't have the power to remove hatred for me. Vanessa smiled and pressed his head, leaned her face over to him and whispered, "No one has the right to forgive them on my behalf. β
The warm snort blew on Liu Ye's face, he squinted his eyes, and sighed: "Then have you thought about it, what to do after revenge?"
Vanessa's neck shook back slightly, and Liu Ye asked her blind spot with this sentence.
"Never thought about it?"
"You don't care. Vanessa clasped her hands to her chest and turned her back to him, and pushed the curtain against a small corner with her shoulders, letting the warm spring sun shine on the bridge of her small and firm nose, "What to do after revenge is something to think about after revenge, I know in my heart." β
"Alas-you haven't thought about anything at all, have you?" Liu Ye pursed his lips, slowly straightened up with both hands on the table, and looked at Vanessa's back in the sun, "What happened after revenge." β
"Have you thought about it?" Vanessa asked rhetorically, without looking back, "where are you going after you find out the truth about the Scarlet October Project, after you find out the secrets on you?"
"I ......" Liu Ye showed a smile on his slightly pale face, "I will probably find a factory to work in, anyway, I don't want to live this kind of three-day life when I either run away or lie in bed to recuperate." β
"Hey, life isn't something you can calm down if you want to. Vanessa pursed her lips, "I want those who have bad intentions and are afraid that the world will not continue to cause trouble." β
"There will be that day. Liu Ye sat on the hospital bed and said softly, "There will definitely be." β
Vanessa swept the gentle and somewhat lonely expression on Liu Ye's face with the corner of her eye, as if her heart was suddenly pressed by a stone.
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Shi Lan walked in in a hurry, threw herself on the hospital bed, her eyes shining, "Liu Ye, what do you think now?"
"I don't have a problem anymore. Liu Ye smiled, "Just now I was discussing with Vanessa when I would be discharged from the hospital." β
"Oh, is that decided, when are you going to leave?" Shi Lan looked at Liu Ye and then at Vanessa.
"Not yet. Liu Ye said softly, "Let's stay here for a while." β
"Good. Shilan nodded, and used her hand to pick up the folds on the quilt.
Vanessa glanced at them both obliquely, then turned her head to look at the traffic and pedestrians in the street.
"By the way, I have something to ask you. Liu Ye picked up the old music box on the bedside table, "This thing...... Where did you find it?"
"I found it in an antique shop, what ...... called, 'Old Times'. Shilan said, "That shopkeeper is a bit of a strange person?"
"A little strange?" Liu Ye raised his eyebrows, "What's a strange method?"
"I can't tell...... Shi Lan tilted her head in thought, "it's like it's hard to focus on him." β
"The usual tactic of businessmen is to focus the customer's attention on the goods. Vanessa interjected, "It's just a small vendor soliciting customers on the street." β
It wasn't that they didn't suspect the identity and mind of the shopkeeper, so after Shilan and Vanessa got the music box, they walked around Boyun City for two days before returning to the bald doctor's clinic, and after so many days, nothing happened, and that little doubt disappeared
"Little trader...... Liu Ye flipped the music box up and down, his slender fingers fiddling back and forth like turning a Rubik's cube.
Maybe he was thinking too much, and it was just a coincidence that the two music boxes were similar in style.
After all, the one that Baili Ming gave him as a birthday gift back then was just a small gift that could be seen everywhere on the street, and her real heart came from her own assembly.
And that music box was blown up by the three war robots along with his apartment after the Tears Company incident ended.
Speaking of the three war robots that suddenly appeared, Liu Ye remembered that it seemed to be the safe house that he had found after tracking Fourier, but the identity of the person who manipulated them had not been confirmed so far.
Who could it be? Liu Ye frowned, the one who has the ability to call a weapon of that specification should be the official person, the Scarlet October Project led by Tianyi Workshop was taken over by Zhi Hi-Tech after it went bankrupt, then there must be an inextricable connection between Zhi Hi-Tech and the official of Boyun City, that is, the Council.
If that's the case, then it's dangerous to continue to be the enemy of the highest.
But why hasn't he been wanted? Liu Ye touched his chin, if the equation of high-tech equals the council is true, then offending high-tech is equivalent to offending the official, and he should have been on the global wanted list a long time ago.
But until now, one's identity can still be spent unhindered in the city, and this anomaly must correspond to a rational explanation hidden in the shadows.
Is it because there is inconsistency within the body? Liu Ye squinted his eyes, it is very likely that not all the directors who support anti-human scientific experiments such as the Scarlet October Project, and the council is not monolithic, if he can successfully find this person, it may become a big help for himself to bring down to high technology.
and Chen Siyun...... Liu Ye was now more and more unsure of what he was thinking.
Maybe the attack at the Secret Garden restaurant that day, the truck that flew up to the third floor, or even the subsequent trip to the Tears Company, were not as simple as they seemed.
"What are you muttering about?" A fairy-like and pure face suddenly approached Liu Ye's nose, and he couldn't help but shudder in fright, "Hey, the food is going to be cold." β
Liu Ye covered his chest with one hand, and the back of his neck was tightly pressed against the wall, and people really couldn't notice the changes in the outside world when they were thinking seriously.
"Hey, why do you have such a ghostly expression?" Shi Lan pouted slightly dissatisfied, "I take care of you every day." β
"No, it's not. Liu Ye exhaled a long breath, "I'm thinking about my next step." β
"Do you want to keep chasing?" Shi Lan held her cheek in one hand and held the green silk in her ear, "Don't you think it's too dangerous to do this?"
"It's dangerous, but it's something I have to do. Liu Ye lowered his head, his eyelids drooping slightly, "Shilan, you know, even if we don't do anything, when we return to Century Dawn, trouble will come to the door." Because, I am me. β
The girl in the yellow dress moved her gaze to the foot of the bed, and her eyes revealed a mixture of emotions such as depression, distress, pity, and overwhelm.
"For more than half a year, there has been turmoil on both the magic side and the scientific side, and this turmoil is continuing to expand, and the starting point of all this is the day you and I met. Liu Ye blinked slowly, his eyes flashing with a determined brilliance, "As time goes by, the context of these turbulent events gradually becomes clear, and they are more or less related to me, Liu Ye, I think, this is not a coincidence." β
"......," Shilan used the index finger of her right hand to draw circles on the quilt one by one.
"Everywhere I went, the people behind the scenes would force me to get back on stage. In other words, wherever I go, there is the stage. Until I find him and crush his plot, there will never be an end to it. Liu Ye reached out and held Shi Lan's cold and small hand, "So, please help me." The event is not over yet, and in order to become stronger, I need your strength. β
Shi Lan looked up at him, the young man's black eyes sparkling, and the corners of his mouth hung with a smile that was gentle enough to melt the polar wind and snow.
"This is my agreement with you, are you willing to end this with me?"
"Ahem, sorry, excuse me. Vanessa's slightly hoarse voice rang out, a wicked smile on her face, "So, what's next, or do you two don't need me anymore?"
Liu Ye then remembered that there was another person next to him, and embarrassedly let go of Shi Lan's hand.
Shi Lan buried her face in the quilt without saying a word, and the roots of her ears were red.
"The next step is this, after leaving here, we first need to find someone. Liu Ye turned his head to look at Vanessa, "Do you know the Special Investigation Bureau?"
"Of course I do. Those rice buckets, with high salaries but can't do anything serious, are obviously a special department set up for special terrorist activities, but those guys are becoming more and more rampant. Vanessa's tone was full of disdain, "What, you're looking for them?"
"Yes, but the Bureau of Special Investigations is not our ultimate goal. Liu Ye continued, "The Scarlet October Project was led by the Tianyi Workshop, and after the bankruptcy, it was transferred to Zhigao, and the Tianyi Workshop was once an official organization. There must be a shadow of the high-level of Boyun City behind the Scarlet October Plan, which means that the transformation plan is officially being done. β
Vanessa frowned, her long eyelashes glistening in the sun.
"But the establishment of the Special Investigation Bureau is mainly for the purpose of investigating the terrorist activities of the reformed human groups, don't you think it's strange?
"So what, it's not like they can't do such things. β
"No, according to the information transmitted by Zeng Chen, the agents of the Special Investigation Bureau still have a certain sense of justice, no matter what the above means, at least they are sincerely working for the safety and peace of this city. Liu Ye smiled, "But their actions are not restricted in any way, but are supported by a lot of resources, do you know what this means?"
"Is there anyone on the council who opposes the Scarlet October Project? or doesn't know about it?" Vanessa's eyes lit up.
"That's right. As long as we can find that person on the council, we have the strength to really compete with each other, and we are no longer a small team. Liu Ye said, "This is very important for us. Against high technology, the three of us alone are definitely not enough. β
"You have a point, but how do we find it? Rush straight to the headquarters of the Special Investigation Bureau?"
β...... Of course not. A row of cold sweat broke out on Liu Ye's forehead, "Why do you think so......
"Then what do you say?" Shi Lan sat up, her hair was slightly messy, and her face was still slightly red, the color of a half-ripe cherry.
"I saw a familiar name in the list sent by Zeng Chen. Liu Ye gently turned the black bracelet on his right wrist, and a small blue light lit up, projecting an archival document on the wall on the side, "Senior Agent of the Special Investigation Bureau, Li Wenqing." My college classmate, after losing the 100 Talents Program, has always been suspicious of Tianyi Workshop, we can start with him and find out how he joined the Special Investigation Bureau. β
"Li Wenqing?" Vanessa bit her thumb, she didn't have much impression of the name, but she didn't have any opinion on Liu Ye's plan.
"I will ask Zeng Chen to find out Li Wenqing's address and phone number, and then I will contact him. Liu Ye took a deep breath, his eyes deep and bright, "Moreover, I still have some things to clarify with him." β
