Section II. New Managers
Leaving the room, the Sith saw the Lightson brothers waiting around the corner. Sith glanced at the two of them and took the elevator back to his seventh floor.
"Xiaowen, let's go too."
"Aren't we going to explain it to our aunt? Is it okay for us to leave now? Letwin asked.
"Cut, what a hassle!" Lightson smacked his lips.
"That brother, do you want me to ......?"
"Not yet, I'll talk to the Sith in a moment, if ...... Xiaowen You know what to do. ”
"Yes, I listen to my brother."
Red Moon Main Building:
"I'm sorry for letting Kaoru suffer with me this time." Ling, who returned to the main hall, helped Zhuge Xun make a cup of tea.
"You don't want to go to the fifth district." Zhuge Xun said.
"I see, isn't the moon in the main building?" Ling saw the weather outside through the window, and it turned out that it was already evening in the main building.
"It's either in the front store, or upstairs."
"I'll go upstairs and have a look, Kaoru can rest too."
"Hmm." Zhuge Xun knew what was happening in the fifth district, because when he left, although he removed the direction symbol, he left a 'sound symbol' there, but he didn't expect it to be such a development, and he couldn't let Ling know about it.
"Mr. Kaoru is back." Hongyue returned to the main hall from the gift shop in front and saw Zhuge Xun sitting alone on the sofa.
"We've just come back from the Fifth Civilian District, and Ling is upstairs, looking for something for you. Is the store in front of you okay? ”
"Kaoru-san and Ling seem to have gone to a lot of interesting places?" A red moon in a blue princess dress clapped her hands, lighting up the candles in the hall on the first floor.
"You've planned it so far? Can you tell me why? I've been curious about your purpose ever since. Zhuge Xun asked.
Red Moon smiled lightly. "It's time."
"The last time I asked you, you answered me the same way." Zhuge Xun sighed. "Why didn't you see Kate?" Kate borrowed gas from Ling, and this time she came back to see Kate's situation.
"He must be eating outside." Red Moon Road. "Any other questions?"
"Why is Ling special?" Zhuge Xun saw a flash of expression in Hongyue's eyes when he asked this question.
"Alas, Hongyue is back, is there anything in the store in front?" Ling saw Zhuge Xun and Hongyue on the first floor on the second floor, as if they were saying something.
"You're looking for me?"
"You wait for me." Ling came down from the upper floor.
"Since Ling has something to do with you, then I won't listen, I'll go back to the room, you won't tell him what happened in District 5, right?" Zhuge Xun got up and went back to his room.
"Here's for you." Red Moon handed Zhuge Xun a withered branch.
"Kaoru is going to rest, isn't he?"
"If you're going to the next district, call me."
"Hmm."
Zhuge Xun didn't go back to his room, but went to the library on the third floor, where he usually stayed when he was fine, where the collection of books was very complete, and he could also find some 'special' books.
"Red Moon, I have a question for you, if you can answer me, please answer me seriously, if you can't answer me, please tell me the reason." Ling looked at the red moon seriously.
"Just ask."
"Why are you special to me?"
"Huh?"
"Zhuge Xun said that you are special to me, not like what the hall owner should do, I want to know the reason."
"What do you think makes me special to you?"
"I don't know."
"Because...... You're special, for this museum. ”
"What do you mean? Why? ”
"When the time comes, you'll know everything."
"When was that? Are your candles burning? ”
“……”
"Okay, I'll wait.
"Rest well. This one is up to you. Red Moon also handed Ling a withered branch.
Fifth Civilian Zone: 7th floor.
"Can I come in?" Letterson and Letwyn stood outside the Sith's office door and asked.
"I'm thinking about letting you in." The Sith in the room said.
"Does this need to be considered?"
"Of course I do, I don't want to die inexplicably."
"You're really joking, have you thought about it?"
"Think about it."
"The result?"
"Please come in."
Lightson and Lightwin looked at each other, then pushed the door open and entered the room.
There were no lights in the house, and nothing could be seen in the dark.
"Why don't you turn on the lights?" Lightson asked.
"So that we don't see each other's faces, so we can tell the truth."
"Hmph."
"There are two chairs by the door, you and your brother can sit there, the door is locked, only I know how to open it, there is no listening equipment in this room, so I can tell the truth." Sith said.
"Truth? How can you tell if it's true or false? Sith, do you mean to tell the truth? "Yanqing has adapted to the darkness in the room but still can't see anything, even Xiaowen, who is sitting next to him, if he doesn't hold his hand, he wouldn't know about his existence at all. So now I don't know if the Sith is in this room or not, Xiaowen's eyes are normal, so he can't see, and he is really passive!
"Okay, then I'll tell you first, truth one: Uncle Ryker's death wasn't caused by ZERO at all. Truth 2: You came to me to cooperate with me. Truth 3: If I don't agree to your offer to cooperate, I'll be killed by ZERO too. Sith said.
"Hehe, that's funny. Saying that the uncle's death was not caused by ZERO, who is the murderer? But I'm really here to ask you to cooperate, because we're the same kind of people, but it's not a cooperation now, at least let's sit down face to face and talk slowly. Lightson tried to discern the Sith's location by sound.
"Don't go around in circles. If you have anything to say, just say it. I let you in because I wanted to hear what you had to say. I'm the only one here. ”
"What do you know?" Lightson asked.
"What do you mean? Is Xiaowen's body modified by you for other purposes? Or is it Ryker's death? Or is it something you're plotting with the 'man in the cloak'? No matter what, this layer is also under my control, the things you usually do, although you hide it from me, but you also underestimate me too much, if you don't say it, it means that I don't object, if you don't have a showdown with me now, I don't think there is a place for you brothers to stand in this fifth district. When I say that, you should be able to understand. ”
"Brother." Letwin shook his brother's hand.
"If, as you say, you know everything, then why don't you tell Loko and the rest of your Lakers?" Lightson asked.
In fact, it was not clear to Lightson how much the Sith knew their secrets, and if that experiment had made the Sith known...... You can only probe his tone first.
"As I said, I'm interested in you."
"Looks like we're really all the way. Now that things have come to this point, it doesn't hurt to tell you, I killed Ryker. From the day I came, I hated Lake so much, if it weren't for their death to my father...... And this fifth district is also very important to 'us', and I say so, are you satisfied? Lightson said calmly. Judging from his usual attitude, Sith has been coveting the position of the manager of the fifth district, and Lake is an obstacle for him, now admitting that Lake killed himself, you can also test Sith's reaction, if he really wants to cooperate with him, then he now admits that it will also make the cooperation between the two smoother, if he just tests himself, then he can deny the relationship between Lake's death and himself at any time, anyway, there is no evidence now.
Sith didn't expect him to admit it so freely, having only guessed that they were murderers. "Why? Just because Lake didn't recognize your father? However, this matter was the decision of the previous manager, Conslade, and had nothing to do with Lake directly. And you say 'you' are you and your brother? Or are you ...... same thing?"
"'We' are not only me and my brother, but there are many civilians behind us who are dissatisfied with the current society, and they are like worms at the bottom of the society, we are not reconciled, why can those people live in the protective circle! So we're going to rebel!
And our ultimate goal is the Hunters' Association, the Central Circle, and our dream is to live in the Protective Circle, but we don't have the ability to resist now, or the ability to resist is too small, so we need a stronghold, and this Fifth Sector is where we need it, and if that doesn't happen in the Second Protective Circle, that's our goal, but it's a pity. That's why we chose this purpose, but this is not where we ultimately want to be.
The cloaked man and the Lord have found their stronghold, and are gradually developing our power. If District 5 joins us, it will be a better place to live. Kelek's antique ......
Sith, you have extraordinary abilities that are different from others, your mind is the closest to ours, and you want change in your heart, are you willing to live like a worm in this underground for the rest of your life?"
"If I'm not mistaken, your ultimate goal is the second civilian district, this is just a springboard, and a mere five districts is not enough to satisfy you."
"You're smart. I sincerely hope to be friends with you. ”
"Who is the man in the cloak and the adult?"
"To be honest, I don't know, and I've only 'seen' the Cloaked Man, and even though I've 'seen' him, I don't know what he looks like, and the 'Adult' is also known to us through the Cloaked Man.
But is there something wrong with that? We are all using each other, they use us to overthrow the rule of the world government, we use them to make our lives better, so it doesn't matter who the other party is, what matters is whether it can bring benefits, for the egoistic Lake family, isn't that enough? ”
"What's next for you?"
"If you don't come out, how can I tell you. We chose you, in fact, it was also the man's suggestion, he said that you are a person with us, and it is true, and you also have more important resources in our hands, but we don't trust you now, just like you don't trust us, but we can also cooperate in this relationship of mutual distrust, right? It's just that you can't even see each other like this, how can we cooperate? ”
"What do I get by cooperating with you?"
"Aren't you going to meet with us?"
"I haven't decided to cooperate with you yet, at least let me hear the conditions."
"Be careful. The benefit we can give you right now is this Fifth District. ”
"What do you mean?"
"You're the new administrator of District 5."
"Isn't that your goal here?"
"Of course, as I said, this is only temporary, and my brother and I are outsiders, and you are a member of the Lake family, and you will only need a little help for our brothers after you become the new administrator. As I said, our goal is the second civilian zone. ”
"How do you convince the others?"
"I have talked to your parents and aunt and uncle before I came to you, and they also want to catch the murderer of Ryker ZERO as soon as possible, and also proposed that you are more suitable to be the new manager, of course your parents did not object, and your parents on your aunt's side also said that they can help convince you, if the older generation is in favor, then your chances are better, and you still have the lifeblood of this fifth district. The rest are the three Loko siblings, and if they object, then the solution is not without ......"
"I'll consider your proposal. You go back first. ”
"Okay, you can think about it. Xiaowen, let's go. By the way, is this door open? Lightson took Lightwin's hand.
"The door is open, you can go out."
"Then I'll wait for your news. But hurry, time is precious. ”
Zone 5, Level 10:
"Brother, what should we do next?" Lorton asked Loko.
"My little sister is so uncalm today. But the Sith also told me that we were family. Loko said.
"Can you believe it?"
"At the moment he can still believe that Sith is a smart man. By the way, do you think it's really ZERO for your father's death? Loko was also suspicious.
"It's hard to say, we haven't had a deep relationship with Zero, and we don't know what he's like, but the two brothers can't be trusted, and since they arrived, District 5 hasn't been as peaceful as it used to be. The brothers couldn't let them stay here. Lorton said fiercely, I used to see the two brothers unpleasantly, but because of my father, I couldn't do anything to the two brothers, but now it's different.
"I'm still worried that the Sith guy will be co-opted by those two brothers, and if that happens, it will be a disaster for us." Loko said.
"Sith bastard! He is just because he is too smart, before his father's death, he began to covet the position of manager, although the little sister is impulsive today, but she is not wrong, we better be careful of the Sith. ”
"Well, it's me. Well, I'll go over now. "Loko turns off the communicator." That bastard asked me to go to him. ”
"Brother, it won't be ...... You can't go! If the Sith and those two brothers breathe out of the same nostril, aren't you dangerous?! ”
"You must go, just in time to find out the attitude of the Sith. That way, after an hour, if I don't come back, you'll cut off all power on the Sith level. ”
"Well, you have to be careful."
