Chapter 38: Baichuan City with no way out
When Tang Jing returned to Baichuan City, it was already noon.
Today is a rare sunny day, and according to the construction personnel of the transmission station in the mining area, the weather on the southern islands in the mining area is also good.
Tang Jing went directly to Jumang's laboratory.
Ju Mang still looks like the same as in the past, nothing to dissect small animals, or study flowers and plants.
The only difference with Zhong Xiuxiu is that Zhong Xiuxiu can still study the highest mission of mankind if he is fine.
Ju Mang really wanted Tang Jing to come and see him, after all, the current Tang Jing is Tang Jing, and he is no longer the annoying Konstantin.
"Here, sit." Ju Mang tied up his dark green hair and tied it in a ponytail.
Not long ago, she asked Li Xiaoyu how she caught up with Tang Xian, after all, Tang Xian is the real Constantine, and he should be the one who doesn't understand feelings the most.
Li Xiaoyu didn't have time to answer this kind of question that was too difficult to answer, so he said that he was a famous teacher and a high apprentice, and it all depended on Qiao Shanshan.
Although Ju Mang felt that Li Xiaoyu, who had come from Zhangkou in the current candor, was not credible, he still asked Qiao Shanshan with the attitude of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
Qiao Shanshan turned her attention to Tang Jing when she heard Ju Mang, and that joy and enthusiasm made Ju Mang suspect that Qiao Shanshan had changed her personality.
Qiao Shanshan really worked hard this time, and gave Ju Mang a good analysis inside and out, including the appearance first.
She said proudly:
"Tang Xian is a straight man enough, right? But after looking at the shape I designed for the second lady, it was also honest. β
So Ju Mang has this dark green hair ponytail shape, at first glance, it looks like a live-action version of Hatsune.
Tang Jing didn't know how to complain about this shape, so he thought about it, forget it, or said that it was easier to get down to business, so he sat on the bamboo chair.
"You can tell Akath what I told you, but everyone else will forget it."
"About spying on Qi Xun?"
Ju Mang was still waiting for Tang Jing to praise his new look, but Tang Jing went straight to the point.
Tang Jing nodded and said:
"There are only twenty-eight days left, and I have to help my brother buy some time. For the rest of the time, I shouldn't stay in Baichuan City. β
Tang Jing had arrived in Baichuan City the day before, and before that, he had stayed in the Holy Mountain. And when he left the Holy Mountain, the court happened to have a little change.
A powerful creature that he didn't even know, the court's new presiding judge, seemed to have angered the judge with something.
Tang Jing realized that this might be an opportunity.
So before leaving, he planned to explain the biggest hidden danger in Baichuan City.
Ju Mang frowned:
"Song Que's ability is not below me now, even Li Xiaoyu is not simple, there are many capable people in Baichuan City, don't underestimate them."
"Qi Xun understands Song Que, if Song Que knows that the orderlies have spies in Baichuan City, even if they cover it up well, they can't hide it from Song Que, the most important thing is that they will habitually deal with Qi Xun in the same way as they deal with humans."
"Are you sure it's Qi Xun, I've observed that person, but his panel is normal."
"Everything we see is just some genetically contained abilities given to us by the orderly, and it does not necessarily mean that it cannot create individuals who can restrain these abilities."
Tang Jing's expression was very serious:
"You can even infer more from that. My brother won't honestly trade with the orderly, and in the same way, will the orderer be honest with my brother? In the past ninety days, I have understood some of the thoughts of that god, she will not let the situation get out of control, and she will definitely try her best to know the situation in Baichuan City, and even manipulate it. β
ε₯mang says:
"You mean that the man named Qi Xun is the eyes and ears of God? When did you start to suspect him? β
"From the Ark Meeting." Tang Jing said.
Ju Mang was shocked, she knew about the Ark meeting, but that was a long time ago. At that time, there were only 3,000 people in Baichuan City, and he and Tang Jing were both cute and charming villains.
It's just that Ju Mang had only heard of that meeting and did not participate in it.
Ju Mang was puzzled and asked:
"At that time, even you couldn't count the changes that followed."
"Naturally, I can't figure it out, but the reaction of each lord at that time can give me a lot of reference."
Tang Jing paused and said:
"For example, the person who represented the Holy Land Fortress at that time, the person around Song Que, that Lin Jie. He gives the impression that he is very similar to Qi Xun, and he is also a ruffian. But Lin Jue said it when he had something to say, and Qi Xun gave people a very gloomy feeling. Lin Jue scolded whoever he wanted to scold, he scolded Li Wanye, which made Li Zheng indignant on the spot, and it can be seen here that Li Zheng is also a person who takes care of his family. β
"And the biggest difference between Qi Xun and Lin Jue is that Lin Jue has a position, but Qi Xun does not. Qi Xun seemed to be helping Li Zheng, but when Song Que revealed his true face, he felt funny, and it looked like he was helping Song Que. Such a person, in fact, no one helps, but it is not a big deal to watch the excitement, because he knows that the lord of the Ark Fortress has nothing to do with him. Therefore, I wish that Song Que and Li Wanye would lose both. β
"Qi Xun is actually ambitious, and in the top three families, Qi Xun looks the most gentle, but there is a price for it, and not everyone can be thrifty from luxury."
Ju Mang didn't expect some subtle performances and some facial expression changes from so long ago, Tang Jinghui will always remember.
"How do you remember so clearly?"
In a sense, it changed the course of the world and shook the foundations of the order. It was also a turning point for me as an overseer. I didn't participate in that meeting, but I was an overseer, and I kept an eye on it, and even my perspective was more nuanced than most of the participants. β
ε₯mang says:
"This is too far-fetched, you must know that there are many people with similar personalities like Qi Xun, if you really doubt it according to your personality, it will be a big project."
"Yes, but Qi Xun is also very consistent in terms of motivation. I did leave behind the names of many people, such as the lord of the 22nd Fortress, the lord candidate of the castle tower fortress, the chaebol of some big conglomerates, etc., and I have listed all the names and biographies of these people, including some of my personal opinions about them, and recorded them all in a book. β
"You're really ......"
"The most useful thing for me is my memories from my time as an Overseer, aren't they?"
"No, you have a lot of useful places, you can be specific to individual organs."
Ju Mang recalled what Qiao Shanshan had taught to praise the other party from time to time, so that the man had face, and there was a feeling that you treated him specially.
ββ¦β¦β
Tang Jing was silent for a second, then continued to return to the topic and said:
"I showed this information to my brother, and he focused on dividing some people."
"So in fact, you and Tang Xian have already had a plan?"
"Yes, some of the projects after Baichuan City are actually fake. It's very simple to deceive Qi Xun, but if you want to hide from the order, you have to fake it. β
"What a fake show."
"First of all, Akath and I are responsible for keeping an eye on these people on weekdays, Akath is responsible for compiling intelligence and suspicious phenomena for me, and I am responsible for dealing with some special data. These things happened long after the riots. β
"At the time of the riot...... Haven't you returned to Baichuan City yet? β
"Yes, after you solved these problems, my brother thought that something was wrong with the riot, although soon because of your ability, the source was found, but your brother's way of thinking you know, he doesn't think that all this is the source, because the opponent is the order, is the god of machines who has observed mankind for hundreds of years with two hundred pyramids, and he thinks that the other party's infiltration methods should choose some unexpected people.
At the very least, the Orderlies should be able to figure out what we're capable of detecting spies. So there should be a corresponding means. β
Ju Mang nodded, probably understood.
Tang Jing compiled some important memories of the Inspector into a book and gave it to Tang Xian, who listed several key goals that needed attention.
Among them was Qi Xun, as well as some other suspicious targets.
But Tang Xian only told Tang Jing and Akasi about this matter.
Akasi tracks others without leaving a trace, and Tang Jing is the real number one brain after Tang Xian leaves the mining area.
After several investigations, Qi Xun was still noticed by Tang Jing.
"But the Divine Throne is in the air, and if the Knights of Judgment were to attack, they would have attacked a long time ago, and they are now all restrained by the Order, waiting for the end of the ninety days of trading. What do the Orderlies want from us? β
"Get the back road to Baichuan City." Tang Jing said.
"Back?"
"I've seen God as he is now. It was a woman who was seven points similar to her brother's biological mother. β
Ju Mang was shocked, Tang Xian's biological mother? It's a great vessel indeed.
"So what I did at the Eye of Origin and Order didn't work?"
"No, you did delay the cultivation of the children of order, but God's actions are much more complicated than we think. She had been calculating the world since she had been calculating the world very early, and because of this, I had misjudged the timing of her resurrection. β
Tang Jing recalled the day he came face to face with God, and he still has some fear:
"I have to assume that this is a being who is no different from my brother, and even has more computing power than my brother. Therefore the elder brother will calculate the orderly, and the orderist will calculate him in turn. She would think about whether there was a way out for humanity, and she would think about the possibility that her brother would use these ninety days to directly intercept all the inheritances. β
"And these means are embodied in Qi Xun?" Ju Mang didn't expect that under his nose, the two brothers Tang Xian and Tang Jing had actually started to play against the orderly.
"At present, it seems that it is Qi Xun."
This sentence is extremely conservative, and Ju Mang realizes that perhaps the orderer has other means.
"So what did you and Tang Xian do? What is the retreat from the city? β
"There is no way back."
The "......" sentence never expected such a result.
"It is true that hoarfrost can move cities with it, but cities that are too large and have a population of tens of millions will also have to overdraw the capacity of hoarfrost, and the interval between this is too long and there are too many variables. It was too easy for the orderer to find Baichuan City in this world, and my brother directly denied this method. β
"Then why did he ......?"
"Why send someone to find a city to move to?"
"Yes. Could it be that he did it on purpose? β
"That's right, my brother and I made the decision together. That's what we do best. Some things become true when they are fake. If the Orderer wants to cut off our retreat, if we do have a retreat, she will find out anyway. But what if we have no way out, deliberately asking her to find a way out? β
Ju Mang now understood.
"When two smart people make a move, they will prepare for the worst in advance, so that no matter what happens, it will not exceed the expectations in their hearts. Qi Xun wanted to find a way out of Baichuan City, so his brother arranged for people to go to the ruins of other cities to investigate very early, these people didn't know the true purpose of his brother, they really thought that they would open up new cities in these ruins. Tang Jing said.
"Then how can you guarantee that Qi Xun will take the bait?"
"We can't guarantee it, and we haven't thought about it, we just think that if we release a clue, the orderly will definitely be able to find it. If we deliberately leave clues, those who seek and order will detect traces of deliberateness. β
Ju Mang was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect that the two of them seemed to be cautious, but they were actually very bold.
"So how did Qi Xun find out? Theoretically, if you want to cover up something, you can't find out. β
"What if Qi Xun has been transformed into an existence similar to us?"
Ju Mang was surprised again.
"It's like we can't see each other's panel needs, what if Qixun's panel requirements are fake? What if he wasn't an ordinary human anymore? Tang Jing's expression was extremely serious.
"I'm sure Qi Xun can sense the changes in the people around him, that is to say, he is now able to show his talent in the world outside the mining area, so it is very likely that he has the same perspective as us, so I didn't tell Li Xiaoyu and Song Que about this matter, I just told you, because only you and I can't be seen through."
Recalling some of Qi Xun's actions, Tang Jing believed that Qi Xun had been able to perceive the creatures around him.
But the good thing is...... He is not a living being, he is an apostle.
Ju Mang finally understood it completely.
"So did we fool her? I mean the orderly. β
"I don't know, Qi Xun has been deceived. But the Orderlies may not be so easy to deceive. β
"What then?"
"There is no other way, we are just delaying the footsteps of the orderly. The situation is for the best. β
