Chapter 15: The True Plan
At the same time, Southern Cross County, in a villa.
Although it looks like an ordinary civil building from the outside, the interior of this villa is very dramatic; With the exception of the porch and living room, which have been renovated to hide their original appearance, all the other rooms have been transformed beyond recognition, as if they were a rather professional biochemistry laboratory.
At this moment, the worshippers are sitting in one of the rooms, holding an I-PEN, reading the news and drinking morning tea.
This Caucasian who doesn't speak English well, but is very good at Chinese, also has a slightly sagged habit, that is...... He prefers Cantonese morning tea to English afternoon tea, and often eats it all morning.
Di Di –
Just as the priest was stuffing the third pineapple bun he had eaten today, suddenly, a device beside him rang twice.
He turned his head and looked in that direction.
There, a cylindrical glass container more than two meters high and more than one meter in diameter was placed, the base of the container was electrified, and the inside was ...... Also loaded with a person.
It was a man, in his twenties, with short hair, who looked like he was of mixed Eurasian descent, but his appearance could only be described as mediocre.
With the sound of the instrument, the man woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he looked around him, and soon found himself soaked in liquid, naked, and with tubes for supplemental oxygen and nutrient solutions inserted into his throat and nose...... However, he didn't seem surprised by any of this.
It only took him a few seconds to get used to the body, and then he looked at the priest outside the vessel and knocked on the glass from the inside.
However, after staring at him for two seconds, the priest pretended not to see it, turned his gaze away, and continued to eat the pineapple bun.
Boom!
Seeing this, the man in the container slammed the glass wall of the container again, attracting the attention of the sacrificer again, and raised his middle finger at the latter.
The priest was helpless, got up impatiently, and pressed a few switches on an operating table next to him.
In the next second, only a "goo-" sound was heard, and the water inside the glass container was quickly drained, and then the outer wall of the container opened from the middle.
The man in the container himself pulled out the tube from his throat with his own hands, retched twice, and walked out of it.
"Whew...... It really hurts me. Lance grabbed a bathrobe that he had prepared and put it on.
"What? Can you still feel the pain from your 'last body'? As he spoke, the priest sat back down and continued to eat his morning tea.
"Physiologically speaking, it is naturally painless." "But on a conscious level, I bring some of the residual impressions with me, and it takes time for the brain to digest that information and convince itself...... That's all delusion. ”
"There is something I don't quite understand but I haven't had time to ask you about it...... "Since you've decided to use an 'artificial body', why would you want to make such an ordinary body?" Just ask the 'doctor' to help you adjust your DNA...... The color of the pupils, the contours of the face, the size of the skeleton, the innate strength of the body, and even the hair quality can be changed, right? You can turn yourself into a sleek stallion, can you? ”
"Do you think it's too long to make yourself so dazzling?" Lance replied, "Besides, if I really want to rely on basic physiological conditions to make myself more powerful, why should I use a man's body? I directly became a beauty who captivated the country and the city, and then added the extreme physical fitness of ordinary people to this beauty...... Isn't it much more advantageous than being a man? ”
"Hmm...... It seems like that's the truth. After hearing this, the priest nodded and said, "Forget it, don't talk about that......" He paused, and then asked, "What are you going to do with that Hel?" ”
"Just let him stay in this county for the time being, and give him a few 'small tasks' every once in a while, so that he feels that he really has something to do." As he said this, Lance walked over to a sofa chair across from the priest and sat down, and unceremoniously began to eat the food on the other's plate, "But be careful...... Try not to let him do anything too dangerous, I don't want anything to happen to him anytime soon. ”
"How long do you think this 'trick' will be able to fool Carmen?" The priest asked again.
"First of all, only I can call her Carmen, you don't know her well, don't call her nonsense." Lance replied, "Secondly, Carmen has obviously known about the effect of my abilities through the car detectives, of course, that information was originally revealed to Che Wuchen by me, which ...... Details such as 'prerequisites for transfers' and 'how much time must be separated between transfers' are both true and false.
"However, in the face of Carmen...... I can't leave anything to chance, I have to make sure nothing goes wrong; So, I'm going to assume that she's prepared for the fact that the information about her abilities may not be correct, and based on that, we'll have to live Hull for at least four months to stay out of the picture. ”
"Hey...... Aren't you telling me this in a different direction when you say that to me now...... Is the interval between the activations of your abilities actually less than four months? The priest said, "Let me know that this is really all right?" ”
"It's okay." Lance smiled and continued, "After this period of observation, I have ruled out the possibility that you are an undercover agent, and I also appreciate your ability, so ...... Congratulations, you're officially in the same boat as me. ”
"Oh...... I'm really flattered. "I don't have to thank you for not putting me in the same category as those 'incompetent fellows,' or I would have been disposed of by the Detectives by now." ”
"No thanks." The other party's words were obviously sarcastic, but Lance accepted it cheekily, "You should be grateful to yourself, you can live...... Not because of my kindness, just because you do have that qualification, that's all. ”
"Heh......," the priest laughed dryly, "whatever you want." He sighed, "Now that I have been regarded by the Federation as your hardcore comrade, it is difficult to get rid of my involvement...... Tell me what that ship is. ”
"Okay." Lance said, standing up and leaving the room.
In less than two minutes, he returned, with a black card in his hand.
"This is it." Lance handed the card to the priest.
The priest took it and looked at it, and found that the card had a unique texture, and at first glance it was used as a token of some kind of "organization"; The card features a white, ornately designed cross on the front and a number "11" on the back.
"What is this? My code name in the organization? The priest looked at it for a moment and asked.
"No, it's your 'jury number.'" Lance continued, "There are thirteen of them, and you're number one. ”
"Your organization is called the Jury?" The priest said again.
"No, it's called 'Reverse Cross.'" Lance said, "This juror number...... I'll explain to you slowly, because you will need to play a play with me on the day of the trial. All you need to know now is that you are already a member of the 'Reverse Cross'. ”
"Oh." The priest replied casually, and then said, "Then what is the difference between this 'reverse cross' and the 'Xuduluo Mountain'?" ”
"'Mt. Xudulo' and 'Judge'...... It's just the props I've used for this project. Lance replied, "The Judgment Show was never meant to administer justice, and the Judge was not the embodiment of justice; I went to play such a role, and to attack those hot people in society in a high-profile manner, in order to provoke a faster federal response and lead Carmen...... Or to introduce the 'tea banquet' organization behind her into the game.
"Only a fool like Hull would believe in this set of things, in this petty, self-satisfied, despicable justice......
"Actually, in the past six months, this plan I have implemented has nothing to do with justice, and its real purpose is threefold - first, to cut off the many problems left by the identity of 'James Lance' in the past few years, so that the Federation will not notice what I am really doing in a short period of time, second, to see if you are qualified to join the Reverse Cross, and third, to test the 'Tea Party' guys through the contest with Carmen.
"So far, the plan has been perfected......
"Carmen thinks she's won and thinks I've moved into Hull Schneider's body, and the agents have stopped their stealth operations targeting me...... From today onwards, in the next few months, as long as Hull doesn't die and doesn't make any big noise, my own movement will be free and safe.
"I won't go into detail about your review, you just need to know...... For half a year you thought you were 'behind the camera', but in fact it's the opposite.
"As for the 'tea banquet'...... They have a wise man like Carmen, and they can mobilize countless guys with amazing execution like Cha Wuchen...... It's tricky indeed, and it must be admitted that they are the most troublesome force in the federal camp. ”
"Well...... the most troublesome force in the 'Federation faction'...... Mean, your organization's enemies are not just from the Federation? The priest quickly realized the problem.
"That's nature, there are many forces in this world that you don't know about, and monsters that you can't imagine." Lance replied, "Let's say the founder of our Reverse Cross......"
"Wait...... Aren't you the boss of this organization? When the priest heard this, he was so stunned that he interrupted Lance; Because he had just realized that Lance was not the leader of the Reverse Cross, and he had the impression that Lance was by no means a man who was willing to be subservient.
"Of course not." Lance replied, "I'm neither the founder nor the boss in charge of the current affairs, at most a boss candidate." ”
"That...... Is it too late for me to get off the boat? In the next second, the priest asked in a complaining tone.
"Huh...... Disembarking......" Lance smiled, "It seems that you don't know much about your current situation...... Do you really think you're hiding well? Li Xiaofan. ”
When he heard these three words, the priest felt a thrill, and even the teacup he held in his hand trembled visibly.
"Don't panic, I'm with the Reverse Cross...... Not a threat to you. Unsurprised, Lance watched the other man's reaction, and continued, "But the PUT-OID (Parallel_Universe_Traveler_Observation_and_Intervention_Department, or the Alternate Universe Traveler Observation and Intervention Bureau) has been eyeing you for ten months...... If I hadn't been secretly helping you out, they would have taken action against you. ”
"You ......" the sacrificer, or Li Xiaofan, hesitated for a moment, thinking about the truth of this sentence and the information that might be tested when he answered, "...... No, I should say 'you', you know a lot......"
"Hah! People can know, why can't we? Lance asked with a smile.
"But the day you and I met, it's only been more than six months since then, how can you help me block the ...... ten months ago" The priest wanted to ask again, but as soon as he said this, he himself found out that it seemed to be nonsense, "...... Ah, when I didn't say it. ”
"I'm right about you - you're not a fool. You see, as soon as I tell the truth, you will soon figure it out. Lance replied in a relaxed tone, "So...... Xiaofan, do you want to go with our ship, or do you want to swim by yourself in the sea where you don't know the depths...... Give me an answer. ”
