Chapter 0001 is a disaster that can't be avoided
Even though the "Camber Charter" clearly states that biological robots do not belong to humans, they have exactly the same understanding of the whole world as humans, so Xia Chenghao has an illusion of the scene in front of him, and he is a little suspicious that the lost planet Gliss is under his feet.
The first snow of the night swept under the streetlight, and he stared blankly, his gaze following the white trail, the snow flakes carrying his thoughts and melting into the ground. In the end, there was not even a watermark left, like Xia Chenghao's life, the long way to come, and he couldn't see the way back.
The Night Ghost may have been destined to be so lonely, and now it is the target of a global hunt by the Purges of the Red Moon. Why he embarked on today's road, it is difficult to explain clearly, he just doesn't want to be used for a lifetime in the predetermined trajectory.
"Actually, everything seems so normal here, but it's me who is not normal." Xia Chenghao smiled bitterly sourly.
Suddenly, this state of mind came to an abrupt halt, and he quickly frowned. Because the dangerous aura coming from the alley was sensed in an instant, was it forward or backward now? Faced with another choice between life or death.
From the moment I stepped on the shuttle of the red moon at the age of ten, I realized that there is a saying called "whether it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided", whether it is good or bad, what should come will always come.
Xia Chenghao has learned how to face those things that are unavoidable.
Beginning one day, the most heavily organized cleanser suddenly declared himself to Red Moon One to be the ghost of the night, and the excellent cleaner was transformed into a purge overnight.
The snow is still falling, and the "Reversible Resting Program" progress bar has read to 79%, and if God gives him another three minutes, he will be able to completely break through the last nerve shield.
Finally, the whole ten-minute function restart procedure was completed, and the body returned to its due lightness and agility.
He took a big stride towards the end of the alley.
The road narrows, the ground is uncleaned all year round, except for the women who work in the factory not far away, who follow the rules and step on the 20-centimeter-wide path, and the surrounding area is almost entirely full of debris.
The deeper you go, the more uneven the road becomes, and the rain and dust in summer and autumn firmly compacted the debris, which is completely different from the flatness of the alleyway. It is precisely because this section of the road is not easy to walk that the women who rent in the same small building as Xia Chenghao pay much less rent than those sisters at the entrance of the alley.
Through the broken brick hole on the left side, you can already see familiar clothes hanging on the branches under the window, the red small overalls are Xiaoyue's from No. 102, and the blue protective clothing is ...... from No. 202 Xiaofei.
Xia Chenghao is not interested in the clothes of his neighbors, but carefully observes any subtle things in his surroundings, even the reptiles passing by on the branches of trees, or the lazy white cats in the courtyard.
More than once I opened the window and saw the idle female workers drying all kinds of clothes. Xia Chenghao's tens of thousands of sensors are capturing information all the time, distinguishing the most imperceptible changes in each direction, so everything in the yard is engraved in his mind.
Twenty steps were needed to open the gate of No. 31 Crape Myrtle Lane, which was his safe house when he was part of the washers.
"Thirteen-twelve-" Xia Chenghao held his breath, tilted his head slightly, cautiously approached the doorway, and reached into his waist with his right hand to take the key.
The law and order situation has not improved much, and the female workers need to guard against burglaries at all times, locking the yard even during the day, and guarding against sudden attacks at night.
"Three-two-"
If he just went home, then Xia Chenghao's remaining actions were only to twist open the dark gray wooden door, but the atmosphere tonight was completely different from before, and the closer he got to the door, the more hesitant his steps became.
However, the porch was not blocked as he expected.
"They probably won't use guns." Xia Chenghao secretly guessed in his heart.
Even a fool knows that this is not a place to use guns, and if someone who really knows Xia Chenghao will never use a gun easily, ordinary bullets have almost no effect on him.
The cleansers who had been sent to Zion from overseas had wanted to do a thorough study beforehand, but due to limited information, they had to rely on hearsay to make an assessment. Xia Chenghao's life experience and skills have long been impossible to investigate because of the successive accidental deaths of those in the know.
His ability to resist gunfire has been rumored in the Cleanser community for a long time, so guns are not the first choice for the Cleaners tonight.
The snowflakes under the streetlights suddenly went berserk with the night wind, abandoning their chaotic scattered tracks, and all of them swooped into the air with a certain force.
Xia Chenghao secretly shouted in his heart: "It's finally here!" ”
The right ear moved slightly, and quickly caught the vibration below 60,000 hertz within 500 meters.
The hand that took the key slowly moved to the laser dagger on his waist, a high-powered weapon, and his left hand was gently held towards the Coma proton gun, which fired a beam of protons instead of bullets from most pistols on Gliss.
The place where the gun was obtained was called Planet Agni, which was Gris's extraterrestrial colony, a remote planet firmly controlled by the Red Moon Order.
Suddenly, an overwhelming ferocious murderous aura swept in, holding messy snowflakes like jet fighters flying over their scalps, and the strong impact of sound waves was enough to knock people down.
Xia Chenghao raised his head suddenly, a shallow smile inadvertently flashed on his face, but soon this smile condensed like ice and then quickly disappeared, and he said coldly in his heart: "I finally showed up, but I want to see which master is coming this time." ”
A man in black ghostly walked out of the shadow of the street lamp, standing quietly ten meters away from Xia Chenghao, holding his hands behind his back and looking at his opponent coldly.
In such a dim light, he was still reluctant to take off the sunglasses, and the mirror reflected the light of the street lamp, which reflected Xia Chenghao's eyes, and there was a posture of giving up who else.
Suddenly, the snow was heavy, and the north wind squeezed in from the mouth of the alley, puffing up the hem of the man in black. The whole body was covered in a black trench coat, and the black hair on the top of the head fluttered in the wind together, but the pale face seemed to be petrified.
After the human immigration, the country was divided and transformed according to the continental blocks of the earth, and people of the same race and similar skin color were still used to living in the same area, so the pale face on the opposite side has already indicated that the cleaners are from the countries of the Western Hemisphere.
Both of them continued to burst out with an overwhelming killing aura, just as cold as the weather, but the confrontation between you and me was a little weird.
Xia Chenghao let go of his hand from the handle of the gun and quietly waited for the other party to act, and the man in black just stood quietly, letting the cold wind blow by his side, like a combat robot that had lost power, and the miserable pestle did not move there at all.
The two looked at each other for a long time, hoping to find out the true intention in each other's eyes.
Xia Chenghao was very calm, the holographic detector in his eyes had the ability to penetrate the other party's sunglasses, and anger was burning in the depths of the eagle-like eyes of the man in black, which was a kind of crazy killing intent, and it was the excitement before the ghost of the dark night in his hand.
