Act Eighty-Five. A paradise for alchemy dolls
Is the last yokai book......"
Back at home, after dinner, Bai Ge sat on the sofa listening to the news and muttered to himself.
The current whereabouts of the Book of the Dead are unknown, and the only thing Raflanzer can tell himself is that the book was taken out of Alexandria ten to fifteen years ago, and who it was after that, and where it went.
It's a bit tricky to find.
Of course, it is impossible for Bai Ge to send a missing person notice and ask who has taken the monster book, please return it immediately, this is too strange.
However, he still has some clues.
The Book of the Dead itself is special in that it can preserve the will of the dead, create the undead, and leave some anecdotes such as urban legends, and if you use the materials of the Library of Alexandria to search carefully, you should be able to find a few traces.
Bai Ge asked [Lao Tzu's World's No. 1 Lovely] about the [Traveler's Oath] and the Book of Monsters again, but there was no more gain, this abyss relic seems to have been sealed here in Ravlanzer after Bai Lu obtained it, and MI5 didn't even have a corresponding record.
"Halleyson judged that the master was in trouble."
At this time, Bai Ge brought a drink by his side, not coffee, but a popular mixed juice in Alexandria, with a moderate sweetness, quite delicious after being chilled, Bai Ge had also bought it for Helleson to learn before, and recently she seemed to have finally mastered the skill of blending, and played it, becoming more suitable for Bai Ge's taste than the original.
"Thank you."
It seems that the previous complaint Halleyson still heard it, and Bai Ge thought to himself that this time this alchemy puppet finally didn't bring a cup of coffee when he was tired and then add a sentence like "Master, you can't rest yet".
"Halleyson, if you had one thing that could bring the dead back to life, would you resurrect Mr. Williams?"
Bai Ge asked, trying to analyze the mind of the holder of the Book of the Dead to find out what he might do.
"Resurrection? Halleyson needs to remind his master that people cannot be resurrected from death, and the pursuit of resurrection from the dead generally does not lead to good results. ”
The alchemy puppet with soft blond hair and dark purple eyes reminded.
"I'm just assuming, for example, that you're able to talk to someone who's dead somehow, what would you want to say to Mr. Williams?"
Bai Ge asked in a different way, and at the same time, he also had some understanding.
The holder of the "Book of the Dead" is estimated to imprison the will of the deceased in the book and place his thoughts on it, but as Halleyson said, people cannot be resurrected after death, and if they indulge in dialogue with the dead, then they will inevitably lose the motivation of real life, and their external manifestations will become simple, silent, isolated, and even lose the concept of life and death.
Faced with Bai Ge's question, the alchemy puppet dressed in a black and white maid costume pondered for a moment before speaking.
"If I can talk to Townsend, Halleyson will tell him that I'm doing well now, don't worry."
When she said this, she was no different from a human.
After a moment of silence, Halleyson continued.
"Halleyson has always been puzzled, after the death of a human being, all bodily functions are lost, there are no more vital signs, and the brain has stopped functioning, why is there still a saying such as soul and heaven?"
It was rare to hear the alchemy puppet ask questions, and Bai Ge also thought about it for a while.
"This is because of good wishes."
He sat Halleyson down and said.
"Because of the fear of death, people have made up these myths, Hades, Hades, Heaven, Valhalla, hoping that they can still prosper after death, hoping that death is not the end, but a new beginning."
"It's a strange thing to deceive yourself like this."
Halleyson tilted his head, and his blonde hair shook with it.
"There are a lot of things that deceive oneself in human beings, such as fairy tales, legends, strange stories, ......"
However, these legends have become a reality now, under the influence of the existence of the ascended person, if there is an ascended person corresponding to the name, maybe heaven, Valhalla, Hades and other places will truly reappear in the world.
"Alchemy dolls may have a paradise too."
Bai Ge thought of the description in the old era movies she had seen, in which the robot hoped not to separate herself from the paradise of mankind, because being able to serve humanity was her greatest wish.
Although from Bai Ge's point of view, such a description is quite moving, but after in-depth understanding of the alchemy puppet, Bai Ge can only feel a little sad.
"Alchemy puppets probably won't believe in heaven like this."
Halleyson said in a flat tone.
"I think so."
Bai Ge smiled.
His mobile phone rang, and Bai Ge saw the caller ID, prompting Sheriff Victor.
"Sergeant Victor, what's the matter?"
It had always been Bai Ge who had bothered Sheriff Victor late at night, but he didn't expect him to find him so late one day.
"Mr. Yasen, General Yegor is looking for you, the car is ready, please pack it up."
Sheriff Victor's voice was a little serious and frightened.
"I see."
Bai Ge didn't ask much, he knew that General Yegor was probably looking for him for the alchemy puppet rebellion, maybe there was some serious accident happening.
"I'll go out for a while, you can just rest without waiting for me to come back."
He said to Helletson.
"I see, though, Halleyson doesn't need to rest, he can wait for his master to come back."
Halleyson said to Bai Ge with a blank face.
"Whatever you want."
Bai Ge changed his clothes, and soon, the police car in Alexandria came to the community, Bai Ge took the police car to the police headquarters in the central district of Alexandria, where the lights were bright even at night, and the police officers in police uniforms came and went, Bai Ge came to a smaller conference room, and saw General Yegor in civilian clothes, and the alchemical doll behind him, Hathaway.
Speaking of which, it seems that this general will take this alchemy doll with him wherever he goes, and it feels a bit exaggerated to say that he is his wife.
General Yegor is a powerful ascender, and he no longer needs an alchemy puppet to protect himself.
Probably people who like spherical joints have some problems at some point.
"Mr. Yasen, how are your injuries?"
General Yegor didn't get to the point directly, but looked at Bai Ge's arm.
The news of his wounding in pursuit of the Faceless Ones has spread among the upper echelons of Alexandria, and everyone admires Arsene Hercule's bravery and wisdom, both Councillor Gram and Councillor Rhodes, who are full of praise for him, and even the mayor of Alexandria is ready to give Bai Ge an honorary citizen award, but he politely refuses.
Of course, Bai Ge knows that most of these politicians are just doing this just to rub off on the popularity and win the favor of the public by the way.
"Curator Lockhart has treated me."
The wounds on Bai Ge's body had long since healed, and a certain level of Curator Olufei's name should be related to a figure such as a doctor, which could heal the flesh, and the effect was better than that of ordinary medicines.
"That old guy is only a little reliable when healing others."
General Yegor laughed, and then asked Sergeant Victor to take out a file bag.
"Mr. Yasen, although I have just escaped from danger, I am a little reluctant to bother you, but this is for the sake of the safety of the Pan-Western Sea, and I hope you can participate as an advisor."
General Yegor said quite politely.
"Did you find anything?"
Bai Ge took the file handed by Sheriff Victor and flipped through it briefly.
His movements suddenly stopped.
"Huh?"
Bai Ge saw that this file was an investigation report, on which the military and the police collaborated, through the investigation and tracking of the rebellious alchemy dolls, they finally discovered the root cause of the appearance of these alchemy dolls, which was a factory in New Macedonia City in the middle of the Pan-Western Sea, and the military immediately sent personnel to investigate and deal with this factory, but later found out that this factory belonged to the industry of the Sand Tooth Foundation, therefore, General Yegor believed that the key to the awakening of the consciousness of these alchemy puppets might be in the Sand Tooth Foundation.
It's the Sand Tooth Consortium again......
Bai Ge felt as if he was on a par with this company.
Not only did he kill the manager of his trading company, but he also killed the wanted criminal that his family took in, and stole the ring of his boss, what else......
If the other party knew that Bai Ge had done all this, he would probably do his best to buy his life.
"There are also people in the Sand Tooth Consortium who are engaged in related research at the Pan-Western Sea Free Academy of Sciences, and perhaps it was their project that went wrong that led to the rebellion of the alchemy dolls."
General Yegor said that the Sand Tooth Consortium is a large consortium that controls almost most of the cities bordering the Pan-Western Sea and Zhuxia, and that Councillor Grank is now very popular, so it is very difficult to investigate them.
But at the same time, if the matter is investigated and turns out to be a mistake by the Sand Tooth consortium, then Congressman Grandk's approval rating may now plummet, and his opponent, Congressman Rod Burundisi, should go on to become the candidate with the highest support rating.
As for the Alexander consortium behind Easter Buscifaras, the current Speaker Randolph Woodstock, etc., they are currently not as high as the Rhodes Congressman.
"So the general wants me to investigate?"
Bai Ge quickly understood what the other party meant, General Yegor, as a military, is theoretically on the side of the current Speaker, if he comes forward, although he can win the opportunity to investigate, but it is more of a political influence, and there will be a feeling of "the current Speaker persecuting the Sand Tooth Foundation".
It's like a problem exposed to you by a competitor, if it is not an ironclad hammer, then it is easy to be bitten back by the Sand Tooth Foundation, claiming that it is a trap for the Central Consortium to slander the Sand Tooth Foundation, which is not clear, but it will make the Speaker and General Yegor fall into the passivity of public opinion, and they need to prove their innocence and let the other lineups benefit.
Therefore, the best way to do this is to have a person who everyone can trust to preside over the investigation under the condition that the major consortia check and balance each other.
This man, no doubt, is Yassen Hercule, who has just shown his wisdom and bravery at a charity banquet in the school city.
