Death is the best silence.

A living person can speak, but a corpse cannot.

However, some things were not buried with Wu Hong's body.

What appeared in front of Su Xia's eyes at this time was all the information he had exchanged for his life.

"Whoa......

Su Xia gently flipped through a few pages, remained silent, watched quietly, and memorized all the information on the material in his heart.

On the side, Ding Can was also flipping through and looking very carefully.

Wu Hong's parents didn't disturb them, and the room was quiet, so quiet that only the noise of the fan of the mechanical equipment remained.

In the process of browsing, Su Xia found that this incident could be traced back to a long time ago, and the timeline was quite long.

It has been around for centuries.

At a time when science was just beginning to emerge, similar experiments were already being conducted.

The most common is to remove the internal organs belonging to the young people, and then replace them with the body of the elderly, and later there are bone exchanges, blood exchanges, spinal pith exchanges, and so on.

Moreover, Wu Hong is not the only one who is investigating this matter.

That's when someone was investigating.

It's just that in the age of steam and brass pipes, people's eyes were blinded by the billowing smoke of industry, the whole world was moving slowly on the gears of dark tones, and information and communication technology was not as mature as it is now.

Therefore, some people who know the truth write what they know into it, mostly detectives or suspense, in order to reflect reality, hoping that their readers can perceive it.

Some of those have been passed down to the present day, and they are still talked about today.

And the main messengers hiding behind the scenes also sensed that something was wrong and began to release some true and false messages.

How to deny a thing? 】

In the information, Wu Hong raised this question.

In the next line, there is the answer he gave.

[Deliberately turned this matter into a conspiracy theory, released a lot of fake news to make this matter a joke, and made ordinary people feel that - people who believe in this matter are crazy]

Yes, the best way to cover up the truth is to turn it into a joke.

Telling the truth in a playful way does not arouse suspicion.

There is a very classic example in Wu Hong's information - more than ten years ago, an elderly rich businessman was invited to the show, when the host asked him how to stay young, the rich businessman smiled and said, "Of course, it is like what is said on the Internet, absorbing the lives of young people", which made the audience laugh, because they all thought it was a joke.

After the birth of the Internet in this world, similar news often circulated on the Internet.

But everyone who sees it thinks that such news is a joke, and there is no such thing.

Ordinary people don't care at all, and they rarely talk about it, even Su Xia has never heard of it before.

[If that didn't happen, where would so many people who go missing every year?] 】

Wu Hong wrote such words in the information, as if he was questioning himself.

He has done an investigation, and the number of missing people every year does not match the number of underground online trafficking.

Less than one-tenth of the children, youth, women, etc., sold in the underworld disappear every year, and the other nine-tenths seem to have disappeared from the world.

"Damn, there are people in Seahorse City who do this kind of business!" When Ding Can saw this, he was angry, and his fists were clenched.

Seahorse City is his and his father's territory, and his father managed the city with great difficulty, making it a rare prosperity.

You know, this city is a rare model city that has been praised by the cyborgs.

In the past few years of Ding Can's activities, he thought that he had investigated the affairs of those flies and dogs in the city, and even knew the number, leader, and scope of activities of each street gang clearly.

But what he didn't expect was that there were so many transactions out of his sight.

"I don't have enough strength right now." Ding Can whispered to himself, "Next time I go home, tell that old Wang Ba if he ......"

As he spoke, Ding Can's heart suddenly tightened, and his face changed slightly.

Judging by his father's control over the city, it was impossible not to know these things.

In other words, his father acquiesced in those deals.

"Governing a city is not that simple, there are so many things to compromise." Su Xia suddenly spoke, "So you can't sit in that position now, your father knows it, and many people in the city here also know that you are too young." ”

"But I don't want to compromise!" Ding Can clenched his fists and said.

"Good!"

Su Xia looked pleased, nodded lightly, and didn't say anything more.

The old couple also looked at Ding Can, their eyes were complicated, they seemed to be happy, and they were a little worried.

Time passed quickly, and before Su Xia could finish reading the information, it was almost twelve o'clock in the morning.

The more I watched, the more I understood what Wu Hong's mechanical friends were saying—what he was doing didn't make much sense at all.

There are not many people who know the truth, but how many are willing to speak out?

At this moment, Wu Hong's father suddenly looked at a certain monitor screen and whispered, "Someone is here." ”

"Huh?"

Su Xia put down the information in his hand, turned his head, and looked at the monitor screen.

Someone is indeed coming.

It's just that the other party went to the bait room and didn't know that it existed.

It can be seen that outside the 102 bait room, two black vans are parked, and six or seven men dressed in black have come out of the cars.

The other party didn't know where Su Xia and they went, but only guessed that they might come to find the reporter's parents, so they rushed to check.

To their disappointment, there was no one in the room.

"Winter Winter ......"

Someone stood at the door and knocked on the door.

At the same time, there were people hiding on both sides of the door, fully armed and looking focused.

There are also people who hold life sensing instruments and explore around the house.

Soon, the man shook his head and made an evacuation gesture to them - there was no one here.

One of them, who seemed to be the leader, nodded in agreement when he saw the gesture and beckoned to the others.

They're going to look somewhere else.

"These are the people!" Wu Hong's father looked at the monitor and said to Su Xia.

"Yes, there are the same signs."

Through the monitor, Su Xia saw that on the clothes of those people, there was an eye-like sign.

Apparently, these people are from the "Left Eye Security Group", which is the same company as the previous landfill security guards.

On the side, Ding Can said: "My lord, why don't I find a new car, the previous car has already left an impression on them." ”

Su Xia nodded: "Okay, the protection ability can't be weaker than the previous car." ”

"Don't worry, I know."

Ding Can was reassuring, and soon sent a message to his subordinates to prepare a new car.

At this time, on the monitor, the people had already returned to the car and drove in the other direction.

Looking at the surveillance footage, Wu Hong's parents had hatred in their eyes, it was those people who caused the car accident, killed their son, and even killed their daughter-in-law.

If it weren't for the fact that the death of the whole family was too strange and easy to attract attention, most of the two of them would not have escaped.

"These scum who have lost their conscience, don't they have a little conscience?" Wu Hong's father's voice trembled, with both hatred and sadness.

More, maybe it's just helplessness.

They had also read the information left by Wu Hong a long time ago, and knew that the two of them couldn't do anything at all, but they still insisted and silently collected more information.

Su Xia whispered, "Mr. Wu, you are very right, that person probably does not have a conscience. ”

"How so?" Wu Hong's father doesn't understand, as long as he grew up in a normal environment, how can he have a little empathy when he sees those hardships, right?

"They could be clones."

"What?"

"I'm just guessing."

In that landfill, when she saw the descriptions of those security guards, Su Xia had such a guess.

The personal descriptions of those security guards were so simplistic that they were only one line.

There is not even the most basic information such as "name".

In the past, even a wanderer on the side of the road could let Su Xia see a lot of descriptions and personal information.

Therefore......

Su Xia guessed that those people might not have names at all, only code names.

They have no real parents, they are manufactured like assembly line products in the factory of childbirth, they have no contact with the outside world at all when they are young, and they are instilled with the knowledge given to them by the group since they were young, and they have become flesh and blood machines with no emotions and only know how to obey orders.

Those people's worldview is not compatible with the outside world at all, so naturally there will be no empathy.

Of course, this is just Su Xia's speculation.

Until the truth is seen, no one can be sure of the specific situation.

"If that's the case, could they possibly have a clone legion?" Ding Can suddenly thought of this question.

"No, it won't." Su Xia shook her head.

"Why?"

"The Machines won't allow a clone legion to exist."

"That's right......"

On this topic, the discussion was stopped for the time being.

The two continued to rummage through the previous materials, trying to find the next breakthrough from them.

In the information, Wu Hong wrote his speculation about the death of singer An Shen.

He felt that An Shen just didn't want to be tied to the community of interests by those people and wanted to expose this matter, so he was killed.

Through investigation, he found that An Shen is not the only star who has died unexpectedly over the years, and many celebrities have died inexplicably, and most of them have been found to be suicides.

Some were forgotten not long after they died, as if there was a hand secretly erasing their influence in all directions.

There are also too many influences, and they really can't be eliminated, so they are splashed with all kinds of dirty water, and they will be slandered when they die, such as "having a special X fetish".

After all, dead people can't speak, can't refute.

All kinds of slanderous news are flying all over the sky, and there are always some people who will believe it.

If someone stands up for someone who is dead, they will be blamed as well, and it won't be long before someone breaks the news about them, leaving them to take care of themselves and their reputation damaged.

"These clues are too complicated, distributed all over the world, and they can't be investigated one by one." Ding Can said as he flipped through them, "Even if we find those people, those people will not necessarily tell us the truth." ”

"Yes." Susha recognized.

"My lord, why don't you go first, and put this matter aside for the time being."

Ding Can persuaded Su Xia to leave again.

Seeing now, even he agreed with what the mechanical creatures said.

He was only worried about Su Xia's safety, and hoped that Su Xia would leave the city as soon as possible, and as long as the person was still alive, he would be able to investigate it one day.

But Su Xia shook his head and said, "Wu Hong is right, even if it's only the tip of the iceberg. ”

"My lord, leave the follow-up to me, I will lead someone to raid that landfill and find out the matter with my father!"

"No, your people are no match for them."

Su Xia knew very well the strength of the two sides, and Ding Can was still too weak.

The lockdown only started at 6 a.m., there is still time, there is no need to leave now.

This task is related to the "anti-stance device", even if it is not for the truth, just for this device, Su Xia cannot give up.

He continued to look through the rest of the information, combing through the details in his mind.

Time passes slowly......

Finally, in the second half of the information, Su Xia finally saw a useful message.

Those friends of the mechanical clan told Wu Hong that if he only wanted to solve the problems here in Seahorse City, he could go to investigate [Ace Villa], where a key person lived.

The location of the lodge is not far from the landfill, less than twenty kilometers.

[Quest Hint: A special mountain villa, you may be able to find a lot of discoveries there]

Quests also give hints.

【Mission map has been updated in real time】

[Click to view]

On the map, another small red dot appeared, waiting for Suxia to explore.

At that time, Wu Hong was in a car accident before he could investigate the villa, and his parents were unable to investigate because the area was private and the outside was heavily guarded.

The old couple tried a lot of things, but they couldn't find much information about the villa.

"Where are you going?" Wu Hong's father was worried: "It's dangerous there, and there are patrolling security guards everywhere. ”

"Don't worry, we'll take care of that."

Su Xia did not hesitate and immediately got up.

With his ability, if he couldn't enter that mountain villa, there shouldn't be many people in this Seahorse City.

"If you really want to go, take this with you."

The old couple didn't have anything else to do, but just gave Su Xia and Ding Can a lucky charm, which they asked for in the temple.

Sadly, both of them had a strong belief in science.

But since the accident with their son and daughter-in-law, they have given up everything before, and even began to seek the help of mysterious powers, whether it is true or not, whether it is useful or not.

Su Xia and Ding Can accepted the lucky charm, and then said goodbye to the old couple.

Due to the previous arrangement, Ding Can's subordinates had already prepared another car, and now they would park not far away and wait for them.

Sukie, who was pregnant, was also transferred to that car.

After the two went downstairs, someone immediately greeted them: "Boss, come here." ”

"Okay."

The two walked over and got into the car in turn.

It doesn't take long to get to the outskirts of the villa from here, forty minutes at most.

Ding Can is still the driver, and after he gave a few words to his subordinates, he started the engine and drove towards the destination with one foot on the accelerator.

It was late at night, and as the lockdown approached, the atmosphere in the city became more and more tense.

During the time they were flipping through the materials, the whole city had changed a lot.

Ding Can drove to the main road in the city, thinking that the main road was spacious and could let go of the speed.

But after he drove into the main road, he found that there were many cars from other places in front and behind, all of them were out of the city, and the dense car lights were connected in a string, causing the main road to be a little crowded.

"Didi-Didi-"

The horns on the road were blaring, and it seemed that everyone was in a hurry.

Ding Can pressed the window and asked the parallel car next to him, "Hey! Brother, why did you all run away? ”

The driver of the car replied: "Don't mention it, the cyborg are crazy, they really want to lock down the city, don't you run now and wait to be dumplings?" ”

I don't know who leaked the news.

With the sensitivity of the zero point tavern to information, it was naturally known at the first time, and even the exact time of the lockdown was known.

Everyone is here for the bounty, and they don't want to lose their lives here.

"Don't hesitate, run now!"

The convoy out of the city formed a long line, and the scene was comparable to a holiday outing.

In the long convoy, Su Xia also saw several familiar cars - special vehicles for the Zero Point Tavern.

Those cars are right in the rear.

At the head of the car, the driver who drove the car was actually a bartender Ah Feng.

Su Xia felt strange, this product was a contracted member of a local tavern, could it be that he also wanted to run?

He asked Ding Can to slow down the car, parallel to the car, then pressed the window and asked Ah Feng, "Why are you running out too?" ”

"Huh? Brother, you're running away too? ”

When Ah Feng saw Su Xia, his eyes lit up, and he immediately shook his head and said, "No, I'm just sending a few friends and sending them outside the city." ”

"Aren't you running?"

"Of course I'm not running!" Ah Feng patted his chest, "Brother, you think there are a lot of people here, but in fact, less than two-thirds of the people have run, and at least one-third of them are still in the city." ”

"Aren't they afraid of the stand device?" Susha asked.

"Afraid of what? They all wanted to see how powerful the stand device was! ”
