Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Thea and Little Plum Meet
The blonde man thought for a moment and said, "If I can do it, you have to give me a promise." Otherwise, why should I believe you? ”
"You don't have a choice, you can only trust me, what's the matter, are you willing to gamble, or do you want to spend the rest of your life in repentance." The middle-aged man said to Kerr. The blonde man didn't speak, just nodded. "Go pick your teammates, don't pick the wrong person this time." With that, they left in a helicopter, and the blonde man decided to get on the plane and go to Paris.
The blonde man, Daum Cole, is a dream thief who uses a device that allows them to enter other people's dreams and steal their secrets. In an accident, his wife, Mel, committed suicide, and he was identified as a murderer and wanted by the police, so he had to flee the United States without his children. Previously, he and his assistant Arthur had been commissioned to enter the middle-aged man's dream and steal trade secrets, but failed. After the defeat, when the two were about to escape, they were found by a middle-aged man, and then what happened just now happened. The middle-aged footpot man, Saito, is an energy tycoon who, after being stolen by Daum, discovers his talent and wants to hire him to help him plant ideas in the mind of his rival's son, who helps him return to the United States in return, which is just a phone call away for him. In order to return to the United States, Daum had to agree to Saito.
On the plane, Daum and Arthur sit opposite each other and eat breakfast, and they have some disagreements.
"I know you want to go home, but I can't do it." Arthur said.
"It's done, it's just that you need to go deep enough." "You know that?" "I've done it before." "Against whom?" Asked this, Daum was silent.
"Why Paris?" Arthur asked.
"Find a new dreammaker." Daum replied.
When the eyes came to Paris, the time came to the afternoon, and after school, the professor was still studying the drawings drawn by Sear in the classroom, and some of Sea's insights and opinions in architecture made the professor appreciate this to the students more and more.
At this point, Daum walked into the classroom with a paper bag, sat down in a seat, and said, "You've never liked to be in the office, have you?" ”
The professor glanced up at Daum, unable to see joy, and then went back to his business, "It's like a closet there, is it safe for you to come here?" ”
Daum stood up and walked over to the professor and said, "You also know that there is an extradition regulation between the United States and France, and it's a mess. ”
"You're too bold, maybe you're not so lucky this time." The professor said.
Daum placed the paper bag at the lecture and said, "If it's convenient, help me give the gift to the child." ”
At this time, the professor said a little jokingly: "You want the children to feel that there is a father, and it is not enough to give some small gifts occasionally." ”
Daum retorted, "I'm just doing what I learned from you." ”
The professor immediately retorted, "I didn't teach you to steal. ”
"You taught me how to manipulate other people's minds, but after that accident, I didn't have the ability to do it almost legally." Daum said.
The professor sat up straight and asked with a serious expression, "What do you want to do here?" Daum. ”
"I've found a way to go home, to do something for a powerful man, and he has a way to drop the charges against me permanently, but I need you to do me a favor." Daum said.
The professor said, "You want to take my students, right?" ”
"You know what I can give them, let them decide for themselves." Daum said.
The professor replied angrily, "Money?" ”
"It's not just money. You know, they can, build the cathedral, the whole city. Build things that can't exist in the real world. Daum said convincingly.
"You're asking me to let someone go into a dream with you?" The professor said.
"You don't have to enter the dream, you just design the blueprint that needs the dream, and then explain it to the person who enters the dream, that's all." Daum replied.
"Design it yourself!" The professor still didn't accede to Daum's request.
Daum continued: "But Mel always destroys. She kept interfering with me in my dreams. ”
When the professor heard the name, his expression suddenly changed, and he persuaded Daum: "Come back to reality, Daum, please, go back to reality!" ”
Daum still said with an unchanged face: "Your grandchildren are waiting for their father to come home, this is their reality. This quest is the last one that will help me get home. If I had any other way, I wouldn't have come to you, I need a dreamer as good as I am. ”
After listening to Daum's words, the professor finally wavered and said to Daum: "I have a better than you, she has more ideas in architecture than many people, and I can't even guarantee that she is better than her." ”
Hearing the professor say this, Daum began to wonder, "Did you train her?" ”
"No, it's just a student in my class, I didn't find out about this student until a few days, and I didn't have any communication with her before." The professor said.
"It's kind of weird." Daum thought.
"I'll help you contact her now." The professor said, opening a note with a string of numbers and the word "Thea" written on it.
Kerr and Thea were having dinner at a three-Michelin-starred restaurant after school when Thea's phone rang. The phone was bought by Kerr for Thea, after all, it is strange that modern people do not give a phone. Thea looked at the ringing phone and couldn't help but think, who called me? I remember I only gave the phone to the professor of architecture.
Thea glanced at Kerr, picked up her phone and answered the call. "Hey, hello, may I ask who you are." Thea greeted.
"Hello Thea, I'm a professor." The professor identified himself. "That's right, there is a person who needs someone who is proficient in architecture, I recommended you to her, I don't know if you are interested in taking this job."
"So, Professor, can you tell me what kind of work it is?" Thea asked.
The professor glanced at Daum and said, "It's a special job, I can't say it on the phone, let's find a time to talk." ”
"Well, okay. You see what time is right. Thea said.
After thinking about it, the professor said, "Then after class ends at noon tomorrow, is that okay?" ”
"No problem, goodbye Professor." Thea hung up.
Kerr looked at Thea and asked, "Did the professor introduce you to work?" ”
"yes, it's a special job that requires an architect." Thea replied.
Kerr put down his knife and fork and said to Thea: "We are not from this world, and we don't need to work for money. You have to remember that we have business to do. ”
Thea said, "I know, I'm just embarrassed to refuse the professor, just to meet up, and then oh find an excuse and just shirk it." ”
"This is not a paradise, I don't dare let you meet by yourself, I have to go with you, and what reason are you going to find to shirk it?" Kerr said.
"Why don't you say that my brother is worried about my safety and has to work with me?" Thea said mischievously. Kerr wasn't angry when he saw Thea teasing himself, and that's what it was.
The next day, at the end of class at noon, the professor took Thea and Kerr to the library and met with the man.
"Thea, this is Mr. Dom Kirby, and he's going to offer a job." The professor introduced. "Hello, Mr. Kirby. I'm Thea, and this is my brother Kerr. Thea and Daum's hands were shaken.
The professor then leaves, leaving Thea and Daum behind. "Let's do a quiz first, and draw the maze that you find the hardest in one minute." Daum took out a notebook and pen and handed it to Thea.
Thea didn't start talking when she got the notebook and pen, but asked, "Is it a two-dimensional maze or a three-dimensional maze?" ”
Daum hesitated for a moment and said, "Two-dimensional." ”
So Thea wrote and drew in the notebook, and a circular labyrinth was drawn. Daum looked at the labyrinth and couldn't help but think that the person recommended by the professor was really good. It took three minutes for Daum to unravel the maze. This level is already qualified for the position of dream maker. "Can you draw a three-dimensional maze?" Daum asked.
Thea smiled and replied, "Of course." So, Thea spent two minutes drawing a three-dimensional maze on paper.
Daum looked at this labyrinth, frowning slightly, this labyrinth was a little tricky. After five minutes, Daum still hadn't solved the maze, and finally Daum gave up and asked, "How do you solve this maze?" ”
Thea smiled and said, "There is no solution, there is no exit to this labyrinth." Daum looked again, and sure enough, it was.
"You can do the job. Can we talk about it separately? Daum glanced at Kerr next to him. I'm afraid it won't work, if you insist I might only have..." Thea was about to take advantage of this and turned down the job when she was interrupted by Kerr.
"I can do the job too, you can hire me too." Kerr said.
Daum glanced at Thea, such a good person, Daum didn't want to give up, so Daum decided to accept the job as long as the male student could meet the minimum standards. "Okay, you draw a maze too."
Kerr picked up the pen and paper and began to draw, Thea looked at Kerr very surprised, what kind of trouble at this time, don't you really want to take this job? Thea didn't know that Kerr was doing tests in Thea before, so he investigated this Daum, and after investigating, he found that Daum was not so simple, he was a dream thief, a unique profession in this world.
As Kerr investigates more and discovers that this world is not so simple, Kerr accidentally discovers that there is something special about this world, in which there is a device that allows people to enter other people's dreams, and such a device is very interesting to Kerr, and if it can be brought back to the park, it will definitely sell for a good price. So Kerr decided to join Doom's Inception gang with Thea to see if there was a chance to get the device, and as for detecting the world barriers, he could wait until this was over.
This is the protagonist who is really entering the plot of the coming Stolen Dream.,There's a more offer in the afternoon.,Ladies and gentlemen, a lot of cheers!
