Chapter 107: Reasons for Defection
The hurried flow of people shuttles through the corridors of the hospital, each with a different expression (qíng) on their faces, and the joys, sorrows, and sorrows blend together to compose a vivid ukiyo-e.
Wu Qinyuan and Zhang Changxu walked through the crowd and walked outside the hospital, and suddenly felt empty.
The two of them have their own thoughts, and different expressions (qíng) are transformed on their faces, revealing the myriad thoughts of the two of them. Zhang Changxu remembered what Ren Yuan said to himself yesterday: Even if Shangguan Shanshui wakes up, it doesn't make much sense.
Wu Qinyuan, on the other hand, was thinking about something else (qíng) in his heart, and hesitated again and again but asked
"Commissioner Zhang, I think, are you suspicious of Shangguan Shanshui or something?"
Zhang Changxu was stunned for a moment, turned his head and asked
"Can't you?"
"It's not that it can't, it's just..."Wu Qinyuan thought for a while and said, "After all, Shanshui has just woken up, and after this great change, his sense (qíng) may be more sensitive, and his tone may not be very good..."
"I'm not suspicious of Shangguan Shanshui because of her attitude." Zhang Changxu walked to the front of the car and got into the car, after Li Mo sacrificed, because he didn't want others to hear the content of the frequent exchanges between him and Wu Qinyuan (rì), he personally took the position of the driver, "It's just that the current situation is grim, if it weren't for the need, I don't even want you to believe it." ”
This sentence stung Wu Qinyuan's sensitive nerves, although he had accepted the fact that he had betrayed in the past year, it didn't mean that he wasn't sad, and he couldn't help but say in a slight tone
"That's true, in short, the branch of S City is easy to be traitors, there was Ren Yuan in the past, and now there are years of injury, it's always right for you to be cautious."
"You're too worried, that's not what I meant." Zhang Changxu smiled and said, "I don't know much about Shangguan Shanshui, or what I know about her is just from her archives. What happened that night on the third was always her family's words. I was right to ask with skepticism. Besides, this is the style of the Blade Brigade, and Shangguan Shanshui is also a member of the Blade Brigade, so she can understand it. ”
"So what are you suspecting?" Wu Qinyuan accepted this explanation: "There is no need for Shanshui to lie, right? ”
"Well, I don't believe in the reason for the knight's rebellion." Zhang Changxu paused, and said thoughtfully: "Although I only learned about the life of the knight through the archives, I still don't believe it, because I knew that there were almost no strangers in the ministry who had lived for ten years, so I chose to defect. ”
"Huh? Didn't you swear that you were a traitor at the beginning, why are you now? Wu Qinyuan sat behind and stared at Zhang Changxu's eyes in the rearview mirror, wondering what this shēn secret commissioner meant.
"The knight has defected, this is an objective fact, why should I doubt it." Zhang Changxu didn't start the car, and Suo (xìng) leaned back in his chair and patiently explained, "What I don't understand is the reason for the knight's rebellion, Shangguan Shanshui's statement is too rash. ”
The two of them came in a hurry, and the parking space of the hospital was very tight, so the parking position was very, and in front of the diagonal was a vehicle with accompanying bodyguards, and sitting in the car was Xiao Xin, the nickname "mercenary", and his dragon Mu Su Xiaoyu. This is the perfect time to discuss things (qíng).
"What are they talking about? Why don't you set off yet? "Xiaoxin is too big, sitting in a modified bulletproof car is very crowded and uncomfortable, I just want to go back to the museum as soon as possible.
"We just need to follow Uncle Zhang and them." Su Xiaoyu comforted his companion slowly
"Hey, it's an eventful autumn, I want to go back to the north, and now it's like this, summer is hard." Xiaoxin sighed helplessly, and his eyes were retracted from the black car behind him.
Here, Wu Qinyuan frowned and asked, "Is it important to discuss the reasons for the rebellion now?" Didn't the ministry decide to erase him? ”
"This is very important, but it is more important to figure it out than to erase the knight." Zhang Changxu hesitated whether to explain to Wu Qinyuan, considering that Wu Qinyuan was the only person who could discuss after Li Mo's sacrifice, or did he say it, "How much do you know about knights?" ”
"I thought I knew." Wu Qinyuan shook his head and said, "Now it seems that not only do I not know about him, but I have a fundamental problem with the perception of aliens. ”
"It's not surprising, it's not a good thing to know too much about Inhumans. For example, Li Mo if... Forget it. Zhang Changxu stared at him and said, "Let's talk about the knight, after confirming the knight's rebellion, I looked through the knight's information and found many amazing records, which also made me understand why the knight was able to be demoted from H-level all the way to J2 level to serve as a resident of the Thunder Dragon Brigade in S City." Speaking of which, do you know why the ministry sent knights to garrison S City? ”
"I've heard of this, and it's said to be a plan to deal with Ren Yuan?" Wu Qinyuan asked
Yes, that's one of the two major tasks he's tasked with. Another reason is that S City, as the discovery site of Xenomorph Three, really needs a strong and reliable combat force to garrison it. The knight is an Inhuman who is recognized by the ministry as strong and reliable, and an Inhuman that the ministry believes can still be reliable after ten years. ”
"Didn't you say that Inhumans wouldn't last ten years?" Wu Qinyuan said in surprise
"There are exceptions to everything, and there are two living exceptions in S City." Zhang Changxu said with a smile, "And the knight is the existence that has high hopes from the ministry, you may not know, the ministry actually thinks that even if he retires from the Thunder Dragon Brigade at the end of the ten-year period, he can still be used as a plan to deal with Ren Yuan." The townsmen who originally assessed the knights believed that the knight's stability period would be guaranteed for at least twenty years. It's only because it's happening now that I'm telling you that. ”
"Why?"
"Because of his experience." Zhang Changxu said lightly, "So even if it is clear that the knight has rebelled, the opinions of the ministry are still not unified at the first time." At the meeting presided over by Chief Liu Kong, a considerable number of the townsmen expressed surprise at the knight's rebellion. ”
"What did he go through?"
"You are now one of the acting commanders of the Blade Brigade in S City, and you can go to the department to read the relevant information when you have the opportunity in the future."
Knowing the meaning of Commissioner Zhang's words, Wu Qinyuan stopped asking this question. Many of the materials in the ministry have the right to read only when they reach a certain level, but they do not have the right to paraphrase. For example, Long Mu, who is connected with the Xiaolong Brigade, only has the right to read the information of the docking alien, but Yan (jìn) relays it to a third party. Zhang Changxu's sentence implies that the information of the injured year is unrelatable, and it seems that he can only wait for the opportunity to see it in person.
"Then from today's Shanshui's expression, what do you think of the rebellion with wounds?"
"That's what I can't figure out about this question." Zhang Changxu pondered for a while and said slowly, "According to Longmu Shangguan Shanshui, the knight was bewitched by a mysterious person, thinking that the ministry would cook rabbits and dead dogs, so he simply defected from the ministry. In the end, because Shangguan Shanshui refused to go with him, he stabbed Shangguan Shanshui to prevent the reason for his rebellion and the existence of the mysterious person from being exposed to us. ”
"Any questions?" Wu Qinyuan also had two questions about this, but he wanted to hear Commissioner Zhang's opinion first
"There are two problems, the first is that although the disaster ministry is responsible for erasing strangers, this does not mean that they will kill indiscriminately. In fact, those Inhumans who signed a contract with the Thunder Dragon Brigade and failed to survive ten years were killed in battle, and finally came to an end for personal reasons, and this pot really can't be carried on us (shēn). ”
"Even if that's the case, that bewitching B-class Inhuman will definitely say that the deaths of those Inhumans are all due to the secret poisoning of the disaster department, right?" Wu Qinyuan asked
"It's not certain whether that B-class alien is a mysterious person in Shangguan Shanshui's mouth. But I am sure that if the knight knew that the ministry would wipe him out after the end of the ten years, I am afraid that there would be no complaints, and I would still feel that it would be a relief. ”
"This?" Wu Qinyuan was taken aback, and then reacted, I am afraid that this is the reason why the ministry will demote him from H-level to J2. Wu Qinyuan didn't know what happened in the past of the sad year, judging from Commissioner Zhang's words, he had already died ten years ago, but he didn't know what kind of pain was hidden in the heart of the seemingly sunny and optimistic sad year.
"But people always change, ten years ago maybe he had no nostalgia for the world, but over time he has changed again?"
"There's got to be a reason." Zhang Changxu guessed that Wu Qinyuan would say this: "You must know that the values of the aliens and we can be said to belong to a completely different world, and the desires they pursue are difficult to guess with common sense." At least from the information we have, there may be only one person who can change his mind in the past ten years. ”
"Is Shangguan Shanshui?"
Yes, his perception of life and death is contradictory. And the reason that can make him nostalgic for life seems to be Shangguan Shanshui is the reason. Zhang Changxu said: "Old Wu, why do you think the knight stabbed his Long Mu with a shot?" ”
"Don't want to expose too much to let us know." Wu Qinyuan only groaned and said
"Then why was it that he was able to kill Long Mu easily, but he still had a glimmer of life?"
"I don't want to give it because I have a special feeling (qíng)." Wu Qinyuan's mind conjured up the image of Wound Liunian raising his right hand and showing off the huge ring to himself.
"Don't you think that's contradictory?" Jang Chang-wook said, "If you say that, because he wanted to live with Long Mu, he decided to defect to the ministry when he thought that the ministry would forcibly erase him (qíng). So why did he choose to assassinate Long Mu because he didn't want to expose too much to us? Isn't the best option to forcibly take the officials into good water? It wasn't too difficult for him. ”
"Sure enough, you think so, too." This is also one of the two questions that Wu Qinyuan has been thinking about since he walked out of the IUC ward, but he didn't know that he had already died in the injured year.
"If the mysterious man gave him something else, a reason to live. So why did he keep Guan Shanshui's life? It doesn't make sense here. Zhang Changxu said, "It can only be said that the mysterious man gave him a reason to live, and Shangguan Shanshui has a special position in his heart." Then this begs another question..."
"Is that what the mysterious man said to him?" Wu Qinyuan said, "This is also another question of mine, although I don't know what happened in the past few years, but I really don't believe it, just because I suspect that the ministry will erase him and defect." I also think that the passing years are not so easy to be seduced. ”
"That's why it's worth knowing the reason for the knight's rebellion, I'm very curious. What is the reason for the quiet change of the alien who has high hopes in the ministry? They even developed and grew in S City under layers of blows. If this problem cannot be clarified, then even if the ministry deploys other combat forces, it will be meaningless, but it will bring huge risks. Zhang Changxu said in a deep voice: "This is also the reason why the ministry asked me and Li Mo to come to S City to investigate first." ”
"So do you think that this mysterious person, or the Adventist organization that has been exposed so far, will be in the same vein as the four Adventists at the time of the Third Xenomorph Crisis ten years ago?" Wu Qinyuan asked
"I think it's probably high." "They have experience in fighting against the Ministry of Disaster, and the last day of Operation Resistance was indeed full of doubts. ”
"Then I think someone might know about this (shēn) of the man in black!"
