Chapter 22 The morning heard that it was okay to die at night
Shen Mu looked at Li Zhen in silence, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "What you said is right. This collision will continue – until the two become one. You...... I thought of it. ”
"For what, Dr. Shen?" Li Zhen looked at him coldly, "You know such a result, but you still don't stop?" ”
Shen Mu lowered his eyes and raised his head again: "Chaowen said, you can die at night." ”
"But it's not your business alone. You want the whole world to bury you. If the two continue to merge – will the other laws change? Will this world as we know it still exist? None of this is on your radar? Not even Zhao Jin? Li Zhen said coldly, "Before I came, I asked you twice and gave you two chances. ”
Shen Mu's chest rose and fell slightly. Li Zhen immediately held him down and said in a low voice, "Don't shout." Otherwise...... I may be forced to hurt more people. ”
Shen Mu stared at him: "You want to kill me?" ”
"You're going to kill someone like me?" He gave up his intention to call for help, lowered his voice, and his face was hideous, "What did I do wrong?!" I am in pursuit of the truth! With a mind like me, can you expect a second one in the history of mankind? If you kill me, humanity may never figure out this theory - we may always be as ignorant as beasts! ”
"Of course I've thought about what you're talking about—but what do we live for? From a human perspective, does it make sense for mammals to live other than to increase the biodiversity of the planet? In the same way, if humanity is forever confused. What's the point of multiplying in this world? ”
"How do you know what the consequences of merging the two worlds of the Dao Dao will be? Maybe we'll all become new life forms, beings who can fly out of the Celestial Realm? ”
Shen Mu grabbed Li Zhen's hand tightly, and his face changed from hideous to pleading: "Ziwen, you can't kill me—I set up a spiritual position for you!" You were the one who got me the money in the first place, and you are my father-in-law! I'm not wrong, I'm just chasing the truth! You can sacrifice yourself for so many innocent people in the Philippines, and now you want to kill me? What I do is the same thing as what you do, we are both in pursuit of justice and truth! ”
Li Zhen sighed: "Dr. Shen." I know what you say. I have never doubted your mind either. Even if you are praised as the treasure of all mankind, I approve of it with both hands. There is nothing wrong with what you are doing – what you are looking for is the noblest and most justified in every sense of the word. ”
"Then I'll ask you the most of the time. I want you to stop thinking about your theory and change your life for a happy and stable life for the rest of your life. Do you say yes or not? ”
Shen Mu clenched his teeth and stared at Li Zhen's eyes. After a long time, he turned his head: "Okay." ”
Li Zhen nodded expressionlessly, sighed, and put his hand on Shen Mu's cheek: "Dr. Shen." You are the pride of humanity. ”
Then his hand slammed into it.
There was a soft, "click" sound.
Shen Mu's head turned to the other side. Hanging down again.
"You seek the truth." Li Zhen said in a low voice. "You died for the truth. I'm sorry. ”
There was a "bang" sound from behind. Li Zhen turned his head suddenly.
The door of the study was opened silently, and the water cup in Zhao Jin's hand fell to the ground. She stared at Shen Mu in the chair with wide eyes, and her lips trembled for a moment. Turned around abruptly—
Li Zhen had already rushed behind her back to cover her mouth, kidnapped her into the study, and kicked her to the door.
Zhao Jin struggled desperately, big tears fell on the back of Li Zhen's hand, desperately let out a "woo" sound, and beat the man behind her with his hands, feet, and all possible parts.
Li Zhen pursed his lips tightly and slashed at the back of her neck with a palm. So Zhao Jin collapsed in his arms.
He stood with the soft body in his arms for a while, sighed, found a roll of duct tape from Shen Mu's desk, wrapped Zhao Jin around the sofa, and sealed her mouth.
After doing all this, he locked the door to his study and listened to the movement outside. This factory building is quite large, in fact, the two guards at the door of the loud conversation here may not be able to hear it.
So he walked to the sofa and woke up Zhao Jin.
The woman woke up slowly, but after seeing Li Zhen, she became excited again, tears overflowed from her eyes one after another, and she twisted her body desperately.
Li Zhen sat on the coffee table opposite her and stared at her for a while, and said in a low voice, "You know who I am." I am a man of power, and my power can destroy an entire city. If you shout loudly, it will attract two people at the door. In that case, I'd have to kill them—but that won't work. Now there is no electricity, surveillance footage cannot capture me, and it is impossible for them to call for reinforcements. So, the number of dead people will go from one to four. ”
Zhao Jin's movements slowly stopped, but the tears did not decrease at all.
Li Zhen continued: "Dr. Shen and I have no grievances or enmity. I admire him and I think you're good. You are an enviable couple. If there is one person in this world who knows him best and doesn't want him to die, it's me. But as you can see, I killed him—I did it for a reason. Whether you can understand it or not, I want you to listen to me, can you? ”
Zhao Jin looked at Li Zhen with red eyes and did not speak.
So Li Zhen slowly tore the tape from her mouth.
"you! You should cut it with a thousand cuts!! Zhao Jin hoarsely stared at him, "Lao Shen said that you are his benefactor!" He also set up a spiritual throne for you! You're not even a brute!! ”
This is such a kind woman. She did keep her voice down, and she didn't want to implicate anyone else.
Li Zhen looked at her expressionlessly: "Listen to me." Dr. Shen is researching a theory called 'Unified Quantum Theory'. He's great, and so is this theory of his......"
Li Zhen said as Zhao Jin cursed him fiercely.
At first, she didn't listen to anything, and after scolding her weak, she asked "what are you doing?" with tears in her eyes. But Li Zhen waited patiently for her to vent, and then continued the topic.
Just like Shen Mu said, this is a woman who "doesn't understand anything". But she knew that Shen Mu was her beloved husband, and their happy days came to an abrupt end on this reddish sunny afternoon after only one year.
But Li Zhen's voice was low and powerful, not hurried, and slowly, she listened.
Her scolding slowed down, her eyes slowly red and swollen, but her tears did not diminish at all. After reaching the end, she only bit her lip and looked at Li Zhen's eyes, as if she was going to take a look at this expressionless young man who had eaten at the same table with them dozens of minutes ago and praised her for her braised pork for a good job......
Is there a trace of guilt and humanity?
But she didn't see anything. The other party's eyes are like a pool of deep water.
“…… Just now I asked him if he would like to stop thinking and spend the rest of his life with you. Li Zhen said slowly. When Zhao Jin heard this, he cried again.
His answer was yes. But I know he's lying. If it were someone else, I would have done a lot to keep him from looking into it. But he is Shen Mu, and he doesn't even need to rely on anything. Li Zhen frowned, "He has the best mind and the most persistent heart in this world. He is a person who can leave everything behind for the sake of what he is pursuing. What dignity, duty, money, reputation...... He can leave it behind. He is a man born for the truth, he is like an arrow shot by fate, and the target is only the bull's-eye. Everything else was just a breeze to him. But that's why I had to kill him. ”
Li Zhen looked at Zhao Jin: "If you were me, what would you do." ”
Zhao Jin trembled all over, and bit his lip to bleed: "He's just a scholar - a scholar!" What's wrong with him as a scholar? Did he hurt anyone? Did he harm others with his fallacies? You say he's right—how can he destroy the world?! ”
Li Zhen lowered his head: "I know that in your opinion, it is incredible. But what I said was true. Sister Zhao, why do I kill him, don't you want to be known? ”
The next time the aurora will appear, his theory will one day prove right. That way, there will be many, many people working on his theory — the concern I told you...... I want it, and others will think about it. Now they don't think, just because they don't believe. Once they believed...... They will come to the same opinion as I do. ”
"Dr. Shen will be killed by then. But when he dies, he will be left with infamy—everyone will think that he is mad and wants to destroy the world for his own ideas. ”
"If I kill him now, I'll destroy all his information. In that case...... People only know that there is a man named Shen Mu in the Dao, who is only one step away from the truth. He was close to making it, he had the best mind in the world. They won't see anything else—Shen Mu will go down in history. ”
"you, I just want to live a good life with him——!" Her word "ah" fell off for a long time, and it turned into a heart-rending cry at its worst.
Li Zhen lowered her eyes, and waited for her voice to become weak and low before she asked softly, "I also want to ask you a question, Sister Zhao." If you let you go, can you keep it a secret. ”
"Get out, you die!"
Li Zhen clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, and his voice trembled slightly: "...... Give me a chance...... Let me believe in you. ”
"You die—you die now, and I believe you!" Zhao Jin's eyes were red and tears flowed, and he snorted on Li Zhen's clothes.
So Li Zhen stood up, walked behind Zhao Jin, and put his right hand around her neck.
Then he turned his head, bit his lip, and closed his reddish eyes.
The crying stopped abruptly.
Li Zhen maintained this movement and stood for a long, long time.
Then he staggered back a few steps, leaning against the wall, his chest heaving violently. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
