Chapter 44
The last ride of Jingwu's instructions was to let Tong Yu get on a bus. When Tong Yu stepped into the car door and was about to leave the school, the sniper gunner, who was palpitating, was as quiet as a sheep, and did not shoot the bullet that belonged to Jingwu into Tong Yu's head angrily.
In the last row of seats in the car, Tong Yu and Jingwu met, accompanied by L. At that time, Jingwu's outfit had already taken off his suit and put on the same hoodie as L. Jingwu said with a smile: "Without the seriousness of the suit, it's really not very accustomed." ”
Tong Yu said, "Really? The way it is now, I think it's more suitable for you. ”
L also said: "Thinking about completely detaching from the previous environment, or starting with changing yourself, this is what I reminded him a long time ago. ”
Jingwu was a little uncomfortable, and awkwardly changed the subject, saying, "Let's talk about business." He took out a small ball from his arms and said to Tong Yu, "Do you remember?" ”
Tong Yu nodded his head, this was the energy ball that Jiana retrieved from Yu Jin's hand that night, and when it appeared again, he asked about its origin and some other uses.
When Jingwu finished explaining everything, he said, "But this is a copycat." ”
Tong Yu nodded his head again and replied, "And then?" From the beginning to the end, he couldn't guess what Pure Enlightenment was trying to do with him. If this meeting was necessary, Tong Yu longed for a friend, but did Jingwu risk his life for the same purpose? This became something that Tong Yu couldn't understand. Tong Yu thought, he wouldn't let a powerless person help find the real thing.
But he heard Jingwu say, "We need your help." ”
This sentence made Tong Yu laugh, and he said: "It's really confusing, even your ability can't solve it, what reason is there to entrust this task to an ordinary person?" Tong Yu thought of something again, this energy ball should be in Cana's hand, and asked: "Finding the real thing is what Cana wants to do." Aren't you all against joining the 'Baike', why are you concerned about their affairs again? ”
L, who had been looking out the window, suddenly said a word: "Money." Then he turned his head and said, "She gave us money, a lot." ”
This explanation could not convince Tong Yu, in his impression, Jingwu and L would not do anything for money, after all, Jingwu had said that they did not want to get involved in the struggle between "Apocalypse" and "Baike". And the reality is that they are acting completely against their will. Tong Yu thought that they were friends with Cana too good to refuse the request.
Jingwu said, "Why do you always feel like you're just an ordinary person? Here, your "otherworldly" identity is special; And as an "ordinary person", you have been exposed to too much obscurity in this world, then you are no longer ordinary. ”
"But what does this do to the help I can provide to you, I can't beat Yu Jin all the time, let alone get the real energy ball back." Tong Yu said.
Jingwu quickly replied, "This kind of fight allows you to play, I think we should be friends with a deep hatred." ”
"But we're not."
"Of course, what we hope is that you can approach Yu Jin and help us find the whereabouts of the energy ball."
"I think that such an important thing, he must hand it over to the 'Apocalypse' organization as soon as possible."
"We've thought about it that way, too, but it's interesting to note that Apocalypse is also looking for it."
"So, it was Yu Jin who owned it."
Jingwu affirmed Tong Yu's statement and said: "The use of the energy ball needs to cooperate with professional technicians, and Yu Jin has not been able to use it for a while. ”
The energy ball is the finished product of a foreign biological research institution, and it is a very interesting and ingenious thing to talk about its maker. Jingwu said: "In the past, I would advise you to live an ordinary life, but now I have found that all these connections are so connected that you can no longer stay out of it, and the maker of this energy ball is called 'Zongcheng'. ”
"Zongcheng", Tong Yu must have heard it somewhere, and listened to Jingwu remind: "He is your roommate, and he has been sent to study abroad for a period of time." You may not have met him, but he knows you. ”
Jingwu also told him that now all countries are striving for "Zongcheng", and in the matter of energy balls, both 'Apocalypse' and 'Baike' need him to join, and this person also plays an important role in Jin. But not long ago, "Zong Cheng" suddenly disappeared mysteriously, and no one knew where he went.
After listening to the story of this coincidental roommate, Tong Yu did not respond, and his mind was still stuck on the sentence "can't stay out of the matter". If these are true, the feeling of fate brought by many coincidences really greatly enhances the persuasiveness of Jingwu wanting Tong Yu to help.
L, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "You help us find the energy ball, and we will provide payment." ”
"Maybe it's not about money, but we can't find a more suitable person. Yu Jin wants to find me through you, and you are in a relationship with his sister, and you have many opportunities to get close to him. ”
Tong Yu is not loud, if he makes the decision to help just because of his friends, this reason is too thin. A very important part of the reason is that he envisions himself to be doing a thankless task that does not provide substantial help. But if you add the weight of "Cana", Tong Yu began to tend to the idea of letting go.
Tong Yu thought to himself: "If you just explore and investigate secretly, and don't expose your purpose in front of Jin, then everything will not be a big problem for me." ”
It was a long drive, and Tong Yu and Jingwu also talked a lot. Here, Tong Yu once again asked why the Jingwu organization would hunt him down, and Jingwu said that it was the decision of the organization's top management, worried that he would one day kill back the same way and take revenge on them, and besides, the 'Apocalypse' was originally a secret organization, and once he lost control, they were worried that Jingwu would leak a lot of secrets like a time bomb.
Tong Yu also asked why they had left the organization, and he wanted to know the truth that Jingwu was reluctant to tell for the first time. Jingwu told him that the cruelty of the organization is not only reflected in the people of the "other world", the "Dawn" warriors are a powerful weapon that it must completely control, in order to cut off the warriors' minds to return to life, they will spare no effort to destroy everything they have, including their families, and Pure Enlightenment is particularly powerful among the "Dawn" warriors, so it is natural that he is the primary object of "care" of the organization's top management.
Sometimes, it doesn't have to be Bailey's. If his ability to achieve enlightenment is mediocre, maybe his family can still live smoothly, and he himself will continue to serve in the "Dawn", and L wants to escape from the organization and loses the strength to borrow, and it is very likely that he will fall on the way to escape, so who is responsible for curing Tong Yu's illness that night...... Now it's really unclear how everything will develop. To be able to get to this point, we have to define whether it is good or sad...... But it's all already happening. According to the previous Jingwu's explanation of the parallel world, in another time and space, another scene may be being staged, but for Tong Yu, it doesn't matter, the meaning of life only exists in the present, and any overthinking is empty and nihilistic.
There is already a scene of autumn outside the car window, Tong Yu's heart is too chaotic, he has no intention of appreciating it at all, he is willing to help, but for the specific approach, it is only a vague concept. He asked about Jingwu's arrangement, and Jingwu said, "If Yu Jin personally possesses the energy ball, then he will definitely not rely on the strength of the organization when he uses it. To exert the maximum effect, before using the energy ball, the human body needs about a week of long-term rest, and he will stop all external activities, generally to keep sleeping. ”
Tong Yu said: "If he has a phenomenon similar to long-term rest, do you want me to notify you in time?" ”
Jingwu said, "Yes, this is also the only chance he will take out the energy ball. ”
Just observing a person's state doesn't seem to be a very difficult action to implement. If Yu Jin wants to choose to rest, then home must be the first choice as a safe location. Now that he has an idea of how to find out the whereabouts of the energy ball, how can he go in and out of his house frequently? This has become a problem for Tong Yu again.
Jingwu suddenly said, "Do you know whose house this car can go to?" ”
Tong Yu shook his head, and Jingwu said, "Bai Yi." She is now in a difficult situation, someone wants to take back her property from her, and it takes money. If there is no house, one blow after another, I can't think of what kind of path she will take. You get off at the next stop. After speaking, Jingwu wrote Tong Yu an address and handed him a bag of money.
Tong Yu weighed the leather bag in his hand, and he remembered the last time Bai Yi sent money to L. Now, the amount of money in the leather bag is far more than what Bai Yi gave them in the first place.
Is it a profit-seeking merchant or a righteous man who helps others? Tong Yu couldn't figure out their identities for a while, and asked, "Have you joined 'Baike'?" ”
Jingwu said: "In the current situation, whether we join or not, we are all on the opposite side of the 'Apocalypse'. The Apocalypse will not let us go, and we will not let anyone take care of it. ”
L noticed the hesitant Tong Yu and reminded: "Don't think about it, considering that you won't sit idly by and watch Bai Yi's affairs, this money is just an advance of your payment." ”
Tong Yu chuckled, a little lost, everyone hoped that their friends would be sympathetic, not cold.
Jingwu smiled and said, "Don't be frustrated, you are in Bai Yi's situation, we are very willing to pay this money." ”
L said, "No, it's you, it's you, it's not us." ”
……
Before getting out of the car, Tong Yu remembered a very important thing, he actually had the need to contact Jingwu earlier, but he was worried about the exposure of Jingwu's whereabouts and other things, so he put this matter on the back of his mind, but now it is not too late to think about it. Tong Yu said: "Cancel our last transaction, don't hurt Yu Shanshan." ”
Jingwu smiled and said, "Don't worry, we know that you have no money and will not make a loss-making transaction." Judging from Tong Yu's performance that night, he had already sensed Tong Yu's intention to regret this transaction.
