223. Consultation and cooperation
Tie Yirou looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was already past eleven o'clock, there should be no guests coming so late, so let's get ready to close. At this moment, the door of the store was pushed open, and a man walked in. The man was long, just a camel-colored turtleneck sweater and dark slacks made him look personable, and the most surprising thing to her was the pair of amethyst-like eyes embedded in the man's face.
"We ...... It's still time to say that it's the first time we met. The man smiled faintly, "Although I have you brothers and sisters in my memory, you should be no stranger to me. ”
Tie Yirou quickly regained her usual blandness and said, "You look alike, but you are also different. How did you find here? ”
The man casually found a place to sit down and said, "Actually, it's not difficult, the most important thing is to lock the search scope." Xuanyuan Yue has seen you, and you are the only one in Shi Sui's circle of friends who is not of an unknown origin. I think if it weren't for Xuanyuan Yue's greater interest in Shi Sui, I think it would only be a matter of time before he was completely sure of your identity. And I happen to have memories of you, so it's simpler. ”
She didn't quite understand the man's intentions, and if she wanted to get her back, there was no need to sit there and gossip with her; But since you come to the door, you won't be fine. "What is the matter with you coming to see me?"
The man looked at her calmly, and his tone was serious enough not to hear a hint of joke, "I want to cooperate with you." ”
"Cooperation? What can we work with? She said lightly, "We are very grateful to your ancestors for helping us, but frankly speaking, the value of our brother and sister to the Xuanyuan family now is nothing more than that string of genetic code." After Xiao Mo returned those materials, we should be even less useful. ”
The man laughed and said, "You're too modest. If it were like what you said, the Xuanyuan family should have cracked the code of life a long time ago, and they would not still be studying it so far. ”
She didn't speak. Xuanyuan Lan had helped her and Yiran escape from Xuanyuan's house, and now the man didn't do anything to harm her, at least he listened to him.
"I think you should also see that the Xuanyuan family is actually a chess piece, but the people of the Xuanyuan family think that they are the masters of the instrument. Ridiculous, right? The man laughed to himself.
She wanted to say so what, but she was silent.
"Before Shi Sui appeared, I didn't think they could make any big waves, but now it's different." The man was serious but looked a little worried, "I'm not sure what kind of person Shi Sui is, but she is indeed the one who is most likely to inherit the thing we call 'Fuxi'. ”
"I know." She said coldly, "I gave Xiao Mo a hypnotic hint just to let him get Fuxi's things, but I don't know what happened to him." Not only did he not bring things back, but he even forgot what happened inside. ”
"How dare you do it?" The man said coldly, "If Xiao Mo really got that thing, with his mental state, all the people who were there at that time would have died in it, including Shi Sui and Xiao Mo himself." ”
She didn't expect Shi Sui to be there at the time. "But for Xiao Mo, maybe dying there isn't a bad thing." She replied coldly, "Because that's what he expects from the bottom of his heart, isn't it?" ”
"I understand, you don't care about the life or death of the Xuanyuan family or anyone else. If Shi Sui knew that you were such a person, she would definitely be very disappointed in you, right? ”
"She won't." She quickly said, "Spiky has known for a long time that I am such a person. She was a little surprised that Shi Sui could detect this in her usual bland interactions, and what surprised her even more was that Shi Sui did not change her attitude towards her because of this, but has always maintained this kind of indifferent friendship. It was also unexpected that Shi Sui would ask her about Xiao Mo in person two days ago, and in the face of her refusal, Shi Sui didn't seem to react.
"She knows you're such a person, but she'll still be sad." There seemed to be something more in the man's calm tone.
"You feel sorry for her?" She was astonished, she thought that those who inherited this blood line lacked mercy.
"Because she feels sorry for me too." The man smiled slightly, "And don't ask for anything in return." ”
She casually looked out the window and said, "Won't you tell me what you want me to work with?" ”
The man briefly introduced what he and Xuanyuan Yue planned to do, but she felt that it might not be easy to accomplish, but if it succeeded, she and Yiran should be able to end this life without end. "Okay, I promise you." She quickly decided, "I think my father would approve of it." ”
"Mr. Tiezhou......" The man's slow tone seemed to chew on these words.
Time can really dilute a lot of things. Now when she mentions her deceased father, she doesn't feel anything anymore, maybe her heart has already been numbed by the erosion of the passing time, right? "Why hasn't anyone wanted to take this step until now?" She noticed that she said this with a hint of sarcasm.
"No, even if people in the past wanted to change, it was difficult to do so." "However, even such a stable inheritance can have mutations." And this time the mutation of the Xuanyuan family happened to Xuanyuan Yuehe. ”
That's why this project was promoted? "It sounds like a long biological evolution." If it weren't for Xuanyuan Yue this time, the chess game would still go on according to the original setting, and what would it be like in the end?
The man smiled calmly, as if he remembered something, and said, "Did Shi Sui mention to you that Xiao Mo is gone?" ”
She shook her head, "What do you mean 'gone'?" Do you want to ask me if I have ever asked him to venture somewhere? ”
The man kept smiling and didn't deny it.
"It's a shame that this time it has nothing to do with me." She straightened her back and said, "I think your Xuanyuan family might be more interested in him. The day before yesterday, a policewoman named Zhu Jing came here to question Xiao Sui about Xiao Mo's situation, if you want to find someone, you can use that woman as a breakthrough. ”
"I think so." The man stood up and said, "I'm so late, I'll contact you when I've set a time to leave." ”
She said yes behind the bar and didn't move, because she hadn't intended to send the man off at all. When the man pushed open the door to go out, she asked, "Are you also called Xuanyuan Lan now?" ”
The amethyst eyes chuckled, "Well, yes." The man left a "goodbye" and left, and the door shook back and forth as the man left.
She didn't expect that she would meet Xuanyuan Lan in this situation. "Yiran, did you hear what you just said?" Looking at the door, she called another person's name.
Yi Ran came out of the lounge inside, and inserted the pistol back into the holster. "Interesting plan, isn't it?" Yiran laughed, "If it weren't for that, I would have planned to shoot him." ”
"No matter what, don't kill people in the store." She said, "But I didn't expect the Xuanyuan family to continue such a secret." According to what he said, the 'Fuxi Thing' is indeed very crucial, and Xiao Sui, who is most likely to hold the 'Fuxi Thing', will indeed become the key person. ”
"The merfolk believe that she is a descendant of God, but no one has actual proof." Yiran put away her smile, "And she's not simple, until now, no one can be sure that the 'Fuxi thing' is in her hands." ”
"Can't go underground to supply electricity again, can I ask the caretaker what happened?" She asked again.
Yiran shook his head and said, "All the spatial cracks, entrances and exits connected to the underground palace have disappeared, and the mysterious palace will be in its original closed state." ”
"If Xiao Sui gets the 'Fuxi Thing', then closing it off and not connecting with the outside world is the dark side of her heart?" She thought about Shi Sui's smiling face, and felt that the human heart was indeed elusive, and maybe Shi Sui herself didn't know that she had such thoughts.
