Chapter 1084: The Father and the Son (13)
Morbius didn't understand Loki's words, he just looked at him a little worriedly, and asked, "Do you think our director will come back?"
After speaking, he pursed his lips to himself, lowered his head, and said affectionately and worriedly: "Before he left, he specially instructed us to be sure to take care of that little girl, and asked us to get the answer he wanted after he returned, but we have already let her go, if the director comes back and finds that she is gone, we will die!"
After saying that, he covered his mouth with his hands again, gritted his teeth, and said, "No, perhaps, death is already the best outcome, in a place where the flow of time can be controlled, all your sufferings can be extended to eternity......
Looking at the look of fear on Morbius's face, Rogie sighed and said in a calm and powerful tone:
"Didn't you say that he hasn't returned yet?"
"Indeed, in the past, he was very punctual, and no one with the ability to travel through time limits could not be punctual." Morbius spread his hands and said, "Even if he is trapped, he can get out of it by going back in time and going back in time."
"But this time, he was really late, which means that there may be something that makes him not want to come back, or it is possible that he can't come back, but the possibility of the latter is too small."
Rogie shook his head, expressing a different opinion from him, and he said, "You said it, he can travel through the timeline, even if something delays his return, he can go back in time to avoid trouble, so as to arrive on time, for a person with the ability to travel through time and the universe, being late can only be forced."
"Although, I can't tell you the truth, or rather, I don't know the whole truth, but something does happen in our universe, let alone you or your director, and even those great beings that we can't understand have difficulty traveling freely as before."
Morbius's eyes suddenly widened, staring at Rogie, and asked hopefully, "So, the director is sure that he won't come back?"
"I can only say that there is a high probability that this is the case." Rogie nodded, but then, still, said, "However, no one can promise you anything, if your director is really as strong as you say, then perhaps, he will be able to return one day."
Morbius's face was not very good throughout, and it was clear that all the people involved in this case had been under a lot of pressure during this time, and Logie saw this, and she thought that this could be a breakthrough in the conversation.
"I've answered your question, so shouldn't you answer my question as well?" Rogie spoke.
"You ask......" Morbius looked absent-minded.
"About the other woman, Rockie, the little girl you let go...... What's so special about her? What do your directors want to know from her?"
Mobius's expression stiffened, he raised his eyes and glanced at Logie's expression, not seeing any other emotions in her expression, only faint doubt.
Thinking that he had already told her so much, that there was no point in continuing to hide it, Morbius said, "Actually, he asked us to torture the little girl, but he didn't tell us what he wanted to ask."
Seeing Logie's even more puzzled expression, Morbius sighed and said, "That's why we didn't want to do this, it seems that he just wanted to torture that little girl, and didn't really want to get any important information from her, which was completely pointless."
"But ......," said Morbius, hesitating, "Before the Director left, Lavona was most highly regarded by him, and she was considered a relatively high-ranking civil official, and she heard some rumors, but they were all rumors, not necessarily true......
"Tell me if there's any clue in it that you haven't noticed?" Rogie encouraged Morbius to speak, and continued. He tapped the table lightly with his fingertips and said, "You have to know that this matter has to be settled, either the director comes back and solves you, or you get rid of the director......
"The director in your mouth is so strong, but maybe it is not completely without weaknesses, he attaches so much importance to this little girl, maybe the key is in her."
Morbius stretched out his hands, covered his face, and said, "We are already mortal enemies with the Director, if he knew what we did, he wouldn't let us go, okay......
"According to Lavona, one time, when the director left our universe on a business trip, he received a prophecy that a special female being in our universe broke "a wall".
「…… Ah???" Rogie let out a short syllable with some confusion, and he didn't quite understand the whole thing that Mobius said, and Mobius himself shook his head and said, "I don't understand it a little bit either, but then. Lavona and I speculate that the Director wants to acquire this ability."
"What is a wall?" Rogie asked again.
"No one knows, but when the director was drunk, he occasionally shouted a few words, which probably means that we are all false, everything is false, no matter how many universes he rules and becomes a great leader, it is all fake, he wants to find the truth, conquer the truth, but he doesn't know where the truth is......
"Perhaps, he thinks that the barrier between the false and the real is called "a wall", and he wants to find this so-called person who can break the barrier, and obtain this ability from her to conquer the truth."
"He thinks this person is the little girl?" Rogie leaned forward slightly and asked.
Morbius nodded lightly and said thoughtfully, "That little girl is quite special, oh, of course, before you came, she was special, because, in so many universes, he is the only female Loki."
Logie recalled it and found that it was indeed the case, in the pictures she saw on the universe, among the countless story lines about her, there seemed to be only one who could truly be called the female Loki.
Of course, his transformation into a female Loki is only a matter of the last few years, and he can only be regarded as a halfway monk, and he should still be a man when this little girl is arrested, so, at that time, only this little girl Loki is a woman.
"True, false, 'wall'......" Rogie squinted as she muttered the words, feeling as if she knew something, but she couldn't grasp the point.
"But actually, we haven't seen that little girl use any abilities beyond Loki." Morbius sighed softly and said, "Actually, we all think that the so-called "wall" and the people who can break it are just drunken dreams of the director who has drunk too much."
"He didn't capture little Rogie for some ethereal ability, maybe it was to satisfy his evil hobby, that's why we joined forces to betray him."
"After all, he can do such a heart-wrenching thing, who knows if we will be the next unlucky one?" Morbius looked a little resentful, and said, "We're working for the Time Authority, and we do believe that we are maintaining the stability of the universe."
"If there is a time sin that really endangers the universe, then no matter how old he is or how cute he is, we will definitely judge him."
"But the little girl was completely innocent, she had neither committed a crime nor a mistake, and she was taken away from her parents, never to be reunited with them, and even to suffer terrible nightmares, which is simply ...... It's just ......."
Mobius collected his stomach for a long time, but he couldn't find an adjective, and in the end, he just muttered, "If you really let this tragedy happen in front of my eyes, you might as well kill me......
"You're a kind man." Rogie said, "You all are."
"Thank you......" Morbius said with a lack of interest, "you are the first Loki to praise me, and in the past, the princes of Asgard who came here wanted to eat me alive......
"However, this is not a kindness, but I instinctively feel that this kind of thing is really outrageous, and she is still so young......
Morbius sat in place, appearing to have
Frustrated, he shook his head and said, "It's the same with your daughter, you better not get involved in this disappearance, I don't want the tragedy to happen again."
"I'm already going to persuade Lavona to let you leave as soon as possible after serving 20 days of detention, no matter what, the child is innocent, and if the director comes back, you won't be able to leave."
"Don't look at Lavona's very serious behavior, but she is actually hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, if I persuade B15 together, she may let you go for the sake of the child, why should you get involved?"
Seeing that Rogie's expression had not changed, Morbius sighed and continued:
"Perhaps, you think, we saved a little girl, but you don't know how many Lokis have been executed here."
"It's not even just Rogie, in the days when the director is there, many crimes that are not so serious, but those who do not cooperate with the investigation will also be executed."
"But at that point, you didn't have a choice, did you?" Rogie looked at him and said, "All the sins of death are on the head of the chief, and the kindness of your thoughts has saved at least one person."
Morbius lowered his head, sighed deeply, and said, "Perhaps, you already found out when you came in, and we didn't plan to live at all."
"We all know that the Director will always return one day, and at that time, what awaits us is something more terrible than death, and we were prepared to blow up everything here as soon as we find out that the Director has returned, including ourselves......
"But do you really want to die?"
