Chapter 100: Staying alive (7)
"Want to hear how I saw through you?" Zhao Gao grinned and spat the blood on the ground.
"Yes." The young man nodded, "I think I'm perfect and try to avoid being in public, and that old friend of your colonel doesn't even see through that I'm a fake, how do you think I'm behind everything?" ”
"After all possibilities are ruled out, the remaining option, if it is no longer possible, will be a fact." Zhao Gao said, "Compared to other people, I am more likely to doubt you...... The idiots of the Executive Department and the Hummingbird team have unconditional trust in the Colonel, and it is impossible to suspect you. ”
"So how did I sneak here?" The young man asked, "You are very well guarded, and it is difficult not to notice if a stranger invades." ”
Zhao Gao was silent for a moment, "You didn't invade the safe zone. ”
The young man was stunned.
"If I'm not mistaken, you've been in the academy all along, and you've been lurking in the safe zone for more than half a year."
The young man smiled and shook his head, "This is impossible, how could I have been lurking in such a heavily defended place for so long?" Your executive department will be aware of it...... Even if I can look like another person, I can't completely replicate his personality and habits, and it will inevitably arouse suspicion over time. ”
"Of course, there will be suspicions if you pretend to be anyone, but there is one exception." Zhao Gao said, "No one doubts the lifestyle habits and personality changes of a mentally ill person, right...... Mr. John Jones? ”
The young man was momentarily stunned.
"During last year's Killer Attack, the Executive found you in the restricted area outside the Academy, they thought you were the real John Jones, but in fact the real John Jones died after touching you, and you pretended to be John Jones and fell to the ground and had the Executive bring you back...... That's why I just said you didn't hack into the safe zone. Zhao Gao said, "Of course, you didn't take the initiative to invade the security zone, it was the executive department who brought you in." ”
"You're pretending to be a schizophrenic who has been over-frightened, with impaired memory, cognitive impairment, and all your abnormalities can be explained by that, so no one will suspect you." Zhao Gao continued, "Professor Albert thinks you have multiple personalities, but in fact these are all fake, you have deceived a psychologist with extraordinary acting skills, and successfully convinced him that you are just a patient with a damaged brain...... You're such a dramatist. ”
The young man was stunned for a while, and laughed, and he clapped vigorously, "Go on! ”
"You've been in the academy for most of the year pretending to be a mentally ill person, and you've had plenty of opportunities to figure out everything in the safe zone, including Maxwell Sean and his own." Zhao Gao said, "If I'm not mistaken, that killer hiding under the academy was also manipulated by you, right?" Those idiots spent the whole night desperately killing the monster, not knowing that the culprit was standing in the hospital a few hundred meters behind them watching them. ”
"What else? What else do you know? The young man asked with interest, "When did you guess that John Jones was mine?" Tell me all. ”
"I've looked at Albert's diagnosis carefully, and he's written down all the conversations between you, and there's one note like this...... Rutgers: You have another name, don't you? What's your other name? John: My other name is ...... Night...... No, John Jones. Zhao Gao replied, "I was always wondering what that sudden 'night' meant, and it wasn't until I ran into your stand-in when I caught ghouls in the restricted area that I realized it was a name." ”
"That name is 'nightlord,' and night is the first half of the phrase, which translates to 'night king.'" Zhao Gao raised his head, "The Night King is your self-title, and after I figured out the meaning of this word, I immediately realized that there was something wrong with John Jones, but I couldn't get back in time because Lu Xun and I were attacked by a siren when we crossed the Huangpu River. ”
"That thing was lying in ambush under the bridge, it jumped up the moment we crossed the broken bridge, I fell into the Huangpu River with it, if I didn't do it, the whole car would be ripped off by it, and the moment I fell into the water, four sirens pounced on me and chased me, and it took me a lot of effort to escape." Zhao Gao said, "That's when I realized that there was a siren banshee's lair in the river, and none of these banshees were wild...... They're artificially made, aren't they? ”
"Oh?" The young man narrowed his eyes, "Why do you think so?" ”
"I'm as familiar with this city as you are, I've lived in the forbidden area for many years, and I'm that stupid ......" Zhao Gao hesitated for a moment and skipped the last two words, "When the security zone of the Shanghai Naval Military Academy was not established, I was already struggling to survive in this ruin, at that time there were no killers in Shanghai at all, these sirens seemed to appear suddenly, but it was impossible for a high-level hunter like a killer to appear suddenly, and the only explanation was that someone had released them." When Lu Xun and I were catching ghouls, we found a large number of newly dead corpses, all of which had signs of mutation and surgery. ”
The young man nodded, motioning to continue.
"You've got survivors on your hands." Zhao Gao said, "You're experimenting with them, you're using your blood and cells to mutate them into hunters. ”
The young man didn't deny it, he turned his head and glanced at Zhao Gao, "Because I'm curious." ”
"Curious?" Zhao Gao frowned.
"I'm curious, what is the meaning of life in this world?" The young man said leisurely, "Whether it's the hunters, you humans, or me...... I was born in a hell, and when I walk in this world, I think about what is a human being, a hunter? What am I? I've been searching for the answer to this question for years. ”
"You're just a mistake." Zhao Gao said coldly, "A monster made by mistake. ”
"No...... I am God. The young man smiled, his smile as clean as the morning sun.
"You've killed hundreds and thousands of people just for such a boring question." Zhao Gao was furious.
"You humans will also sacrifice thousands of mice and monkeys in order to find a cure for the disease." The young man waved his index finger, "This behavior is no different from what I did. ”
He then squatted down, patted Zhao Gao's shoulder gently, and said with a smile: "I still have more than a hundred survivors on my hands, if you can defeat me, they will all be yours...... That's the end of the topic, let's get down to business, and then say, how do you see through me? I'll admit you saw through the first half of my plan, I did pretend to be John Jones, but what about later? What happened in the days that followed? ”
