Chapter 7: Adrian Helmris
Chapter 7: Adrian Helmris
Suddenly falling from the altar to the world, many elites and dignitaries from various countries came to Washington, and they felt very uncomfortable, and they were unwilling to stay in that cramped and depressing room in a daze. Although they were all able to get tickets, they heard extremely cruel news every day, people's hearts were long, and many people were very sad and chose to come out to relax.
Abraham Lincoln was a hero who liberated the Negroes, and the Lincoln Memorial itself is a very famous attraction that is visited by many people and is crowded every day. If it had been placed in the past, the person in charge would have laughed from ear to ear.
The four of them walked up the stone steps, passed under the tall columns, and entered the memorial hall, where they were greeted by a marble statue of Lincoln in the center. On the wall above the statue is an inscription: "Lincoln will live forever in the hearts of the people." On the left, he was engraved with his re-election speech, and on the right is the famous Gettysburg address.
Lincoln sat upright in his chair, quietly watching the people come and go, and in the passage of time between night and day, he watched the country to which he had dedicated his life, little by little, become strange and prosperous.
I just don't know, did he ever expect everything today? It's just that even if he is reincarnated, he will be at a loss.
"If it were you, Mr. Lincoln, would you have a way to deal with what is happening today?" A low murmur came from the mouth of a man beside Zhang Shen.
Zhang Shen looked over, it was a black American, dressed very formally, with deep brows, revealing deep sorrow and depression. He looked up at the statue of Lincoln, his forehead showing a forehead wrinkle. The slightly pale and weak face, the messy stubble that has not been cleaned up for a while, and the exhaustion and depression of being under great pressure for a long time make people feel pity at once.
The man noticed the gaze from Zhang Shen, turned his head, was stunned suddenly, and then thought of something, his eyes darkened, and he smiled kindly.
Before Zhang Shen, Walter Stuart's face had been exposed to the FBI, and at this time it was also a black face, which was probably very coincidentally similar to an acquaintance of that person.
"Adrian Helmris." Adrian suppressed the turmoil in his mind and smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Dorek Kakarot."
Adrian was a little surprised by Zhang Shen's calm performance, and then laughed at himself in his heart and put it behind him.
"Mr. Kakarot......"
"Just call me Dorek." The corners of Zhang Shen's eyes jumped, and he felt as if he had become some kind of strange creature with a tail.
"These three are my friends. Mantha, Tanya, Wood. ”
The five of them greeted each other, walked out of the memorial hall, and came to the bottom of the column.
"What do you think of the current situation?" Adrian snapped into words.
Well?! Zhang Shen and the four exchanged a vague look, and their hearts were full of joy, listening to this Adrian's tone, it seems, is it still a big fish?
"My luck hasn't been bad yet." Ignoring Bu Lichen's strong luck, someone shamelessly takes credit for himself.
"By the situation, you mean ...... The United States, or the whole world? ”
"Is there a difference between the United States and the whole world?" Adrian's words were sarcastic.
He didn't seem to expect to get any profound answers from Zhang Shen's mouth, and continued to ask himself: "You say, for us human beings, are we dying in ignorance, or do we know that everything is counting the end with a desperate mood and suffering into death?" ”
On the way here, Ouyang Tianqi and the three of them also had a better understanding of the "reality" of this world, and when they heard this, they were immediately silent.
This question, after hearing the broadcast, Zhang Shen has been thinking about it, however, this is a dead knot with no answer.
From the first time something called "civilization" appeared in the minds of human beings, it was the instinct of all people to seek the truth, especially in the last few hundred years, the word "freedom" has taken root in the hearts of the vast majority of people. The pursuit of "freedom" is, to a large extent, the search for the truth of the world.
But if this "truth" is so cruel and desperate to know in advance, will anyone want to know?
This is an unsolvable question, after all, there is no way to turn back time.
However, for the people of this world, in the final analysis, the source of all tragedies is the overwhelming G8 record on October 1.
And this, without a doubt, has nothing to do with the betrayer!!
"Betrayer~~~" For a while, Zhang Shen was full of hatred for this existence that he had never seen but only heard a lot of rumors.
"This is my business card, if there is any trouble, I can still help a little." Perhaps it was Zhang Shen's "appearance" at this time and the atmosphere of this trip to the Lincoln Memorial that aroused some emotions in Adrian, and he took out a business card and hinted at his "energy" in Washington.
And in fact, it is true, with his current "identity", he is indeed qualified to say such domineering words.
"Don't you do it yet?" "Captain, do you want to do it?" Zhang Shen heard the urging and inquiry of Ouyang Tianqi and several people in his ears.
"Of course!!"
Zhang Shen knew that the more the guardians controlled the upper echelons of this world, the smoother the next move. And everyone's actions are all aimed at saving more human beings, which is beneficial to the entire human race.
Moreover, the control methods used by the guardians are relatively mild, and they are not the kind of methods that completely erase the will of the self, and do not hurt the roots. For example, the golden lotus flower that Zhang Shen hid in the palm of his hand at this time has the function of "degree", so that the person who is tempered becomes a devout Buddhist believer, although he will obey the words of the person who refines the lotus, but his own will and wisdom have no effect.
Zhang Shen was about to start, when he heard a scream, and the rich smell of blood came.
"Someone's in trouble!" "It's badly injured, don't touch him!" "Call an ambulance, call an ambulance!" "No, it's so congested on the streets, the ambulances are too slow! Is there a doctor on site? Or know how to do first aid! "Me! I'm a doctor, let me come! "I'm also a surgeon, let me in!"
Just now, someone had an accident and was seriously injured. However, the people here are worthy of being highly qualified elites, who do not panic at all and carry out first aid in an orderly manner.
Unfortunately, the man was so badly injured that when Zhang Shen and the five walked over, the man had stopped breathing. Next to the corpse, a mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried, heartbreaking, which made people sigh.
From the whispered talk of others, Zhang Shen learned that when the man went down the stone steps, he suddenly stepped on the air, and then his head just hit the edge of the stone brick, and a hole was smashed in his head, and he died in less than a minute.
Security guards arrived and took the deceased away, leaving only a large red stain of blood, which was particularly dazzling on the shiny ground.
The people around them scattered, as if they wanted to stay away from this unlucky place.
"Another ...... What the hell is going on in this world......" Adrian looked at the blood stains on the ground that had not yet dried up, and muttered, his face was very ugly, and his eyes were full of confusion and uneasiness.
"Another one?" Ouyang Tianqi's pupils shrank, and he asked, "Adrian, could it be that a lot of similar things have happened recently?" ”
Adrian nodded, his eyes a little hollow: "I've seen several cases." ”
"Every death seems a little inexplicable. Although it can be explained by coincidence, when the number of coincidences is large, it is not a coincidence. ”
Li Jingxiu frowned slightly: "I remember that many similar events were broadcast on the radio, and it happened all over the country. Moreover, the Cult of Doomsday Shinrikyo also took the opportunity to declare that this was the devil descending on the earth or something......"
The corners of Adrian's mouth twitched: "Devil? It's just the delusions of poor people who are completely desperate. ”
Adrian, who has received a quality education since he was a child, is disdainful of things like gods and ghosts, but Zhang Shen and the four of them are nervous, and their attitude towards this matter is extremely cautious. Linking the inky black qi pillar that Ouyang Tianqi saw before with Tianluozi's "The country will die and will be born demons", it is obvious that these inexplicable deaths are by no means so simple.
"Actually, at the end of the day, we're just poor people clinging to the last glimmer of hope." Suddenly, he laughed to himself.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have something to do, so I'll leave first. Happy stay in Washington, D.C., and goodbye. With that, he began to take his leave.
"Wait!"
"Hey, what's more...... Hmm~~" was suddenly stopped by Zhang Shen, Adrian turned around, but saw a golden Buddha light shooting out from Zhang Shen's hand, divided into two strands, fell into his eyes, and condensed into two extremely small "swastika" symbols.
After being stunned for a moment, Adrian shook his head vigorously and asked in confusion, "Dorek, what happened to me just now?" ”
"You're probably too tired, and I suggest you go home and get some rest."
"I just saw a golden light shooting out of your hand......"
"Golden light? In my hands? Zhang Shen spread out his hands and looked strange, "Adrian, it seems that you are really tired, and you are hallucinating in your eyes." Once again, I seriously advise you to stop what you are doing and rest for a few days. ”
"You look in the mirror, that tired look...... By the way, how long has it been since you've taken a serious break? ”
Zhang Shen's words of concern moved Adrian for a while, not to mention that he also had a familiar face on his head, which made the latter feel even more cordial, and immediately put any golden things behind.
"Thanks, I know."
"I'll pay attention, go back and get some rest." When I think about it, I really haven't slept well for more than half a month. Even when you fall asleep, you will wake up in a nightmare.
As for the content of the nightmare...... Even during the day, it still gives Adrian the creeps in the back.
"Adrian, why is your face so ugly all of a sudden?"
"It's fine, it's just that I suddenly remembered bad memories."
"Goodbye, then, my dear friend." Adrian suppressed those terrifying images into the depths of his memory, smiled and beckoned to Zhang Shen and the others, and his figure gradually disappeared.
