Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Shadows Hidden Behind the Mask and the Veil
After eating and drinking, Wu Ming helped Zhao Jida clean up the dining table and walked out after a brief explanation.
Elizabeth was ready to take Siegphy to go shopping, and she swore not to give up if she didn't achieve her goal.
This made Wu Ming think of the 'certain degree of personality disorder' that the director said before, and he didn't know if this was an abnormal manifestation after integrating with other Elizabeths.
Although Wu Ming was also a little worried about whether these two superheroines would make a big deal when they went shopping, he thought about it and thought that Elizabeth didn't know how long she had lived in the human world, and she must have an understanding of the basic life common sense of human society, and Qi Gefei also received a certain degree of social common sense infusion from the director...... It is unlikely that something will happen...... Right?
In the end, Wu Ming, who was still a little relieved, left a new probe for Elizabeth, and told her and Ziegfei how to use the probe to contact him urgently.
The puppet girl is scheduled to stay at home and study the [Truth] pill in depth, preparing to figure out its composition materials, effective principles and reverse crack the production process in a short period of time, and strive to find a way to solve the problem of Lin Jiaojiao's extraordinary potential as soon as possible.
As for Wu Ming, he is going to follow the marking points of the auxiliary device to meet the prayer person first.
…………
Since today is a working day, and it is now the rush hour for work, Wu Ming can always see a very wonderful scene: the traffic on the lane across the road to the city center and the business district is endless, and the traffic flow was once so large that the existence of traffic lights has lost its meaning - anyway, whether it is a red light or a green light, the vehicles going to the business district and the city center are always connected head to tail, and they are blocked on the road to form a long queue.
On the other hand, there are far fewer vehicles on this side of the road than on the other side, and although the traffic is not small, the traffic is still able to pass at a basically unhindered speed.
"It's only eight o'clock......" Walking out of the back alley, Wu Ming, who was standing on the sidewalk, took out his mobile phone to confirm the time while waiting for the red light, "But the location of the wisher shows that he has already gone out, is he going to go out to play?" Going out on a weekday, the other party is still a student at school? And now is the peak season, will you choose this time to go out because the destination is far away, or to avoid the hot period? ”
For a while, Wu Ming's mind habitually appeared with a lot of random speculations that he felt useless.
Just when the speculation about this prayer popped up in his mind, Wu Ming, who was waiting for the red light, suddenly felt a shock in his left shoulder, as if he had been hit by someone.
Boom!
Wu Ming turned his head to look to the left, and found that it was a young man in his early twenties who bumped into him, wearing headphones, staring intently at the mobile phone screen, and after hitting him, he neither apologized, nor looked up to see what happened, as if he didn't feel that he had bumped into someone at all, he was still immersed in his own world and continued to walk forward.
However, Wu Ming didn't pay attention to what was playing on the screen of the young man's mobile phone, which caused the latter to be so fascinated, but was keenly aware of another thing.
The young man did not notice that the pavement was still red, and that there were still many cars on the side of the road where there was less traffic, but as if he did not perceive the danger at all, he walked towards the other side of the road as if no one was beside him.
didn't even need to think superfluously, Wu Ming raised his hand and dragged the young man who was about to walk onto the sidewalk and was hit by a car.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Ming felt that something was wrong, the young man did not stop moving forward, nor did he get angry because he was rashly dragged by strangers, but like a sweeping robot with imperfect intelligent program, even if he was stuck for some reason and could not continue to move forward, he still took forward mechanically unconsciously.
This is already a line of people who can't concentrate on watching the video as if no one is around!
Realizing that something was wrong, Wu Ming's arm was slightly strengthened, and he easily pulled this somewhat eccentric young man back, in order to avoid suspicion from the people around him, he quickly adjusted his expression and replaced it with a kind and sunny smile, looking like a warm-hearted and nosy passer-by asked with concern: "Little brother, are you okay?" Don't look at your phone when crossing the street. ”
But the moment he saw this young man's face, Wu Ming's deliberately adjusted smile froze on his face.
He saw a pair of amber eyes.
The young man's eyes seemed to be burning with golden flames, dyeing his pupils as golden yellow as amber, and he met Wu Ming's gaze with an expressionless face.
Just by looking at Wu Ming for a short time, he could tell that it was definitely not the gaze that humans have!
Or rather, something 'occupied' this body, looking at him through these pupils, in a way that transcends reality and void, space and even time!
There are ordinary people all around, and it's not good to start a fight on the road or stage a big change......
Wu Ming, who had already made a judgment in his heart for a moment, invoked the power of the auxiliary device, acting on the mental and psychological hints and cognitive tampering spread, first tampering with and reducing the existence of the two of them by ordinary people around him, deliberately diluting the presence of the two in the eyes of the people around him, and then taking advantage of the effect of the decline in the sense of existence, Wu Ming decisively opened the containment space, ready to throw this young man into the containment space first!
No matter what kind of existence you are, please sit in the containment space!
It? Or is it him? Sensing the consternation and nervousness in Wu Ming's eyes, he stiffly and mechanically stretched out his hand and pressed Wu Ming's shoulder, and then the body that was manipulated by an unknown existence grinned.
The incomprehensible madman's whispers suddenly exploded in Wu Ming's ears! It seemed to be a noise formed by thousands of people whispering different words at the same time, Wu Ming only felt a buzzing sound of gold stars in his eyes, and then it was unbearable, as if someone had drilled his skull open with a drill like a coconut came from the pain, which roughly interrupted his attempt to fit the young man into the containment space!
Mental resistance has always been Wu Ming's weakness and weakness, and this weakness has made him suffer several big losses so far.
The invisible fluctuations have spread, although mortals cannot feel the changes, but Wu Ming, who has extraordinary senses, can deeply feel that the objectivity and stability of the world is being questioned at this time, and Wu Ming, who is affected by the madman's whispering, clearly feels that the material world around him is becoming illusory and ethereal......
"Nest...... Goose ...... Plums...... The word wine is the sea ......"
The boundary between matter and spirit returned to a blurred state, and Wu Ming vaguely felt that something seemed to have changed in his body, but before he could find out the source of this change, he vaguely heard a voice that overshadowed the curtain composed of noisy and crazy babbling, echoing in his ears for a long time like a babbling baby.
"I'm a goose...... Wine is the word child......"
The voice with a strange pitch and a very chaotic logic was gradually becoming smoother, and the presence that occupied the body showed a very strong learning ability, and it took almost only a few seconds of trial and error and practice to master the correct intonation and word order necessary to speak.
The result is a complete sentence.
"I ...... No malice...... Save the child!! ”
