As he spoke, the middle-aged man paused.

Jing Chen didn't answer, just looked at this person.

The middle-aged man raised his head, looked around again, and faced Jing Chen again,

「…… In this terrible world, this apparent order and peace is the biggest lie."

"There are enough people who think it's real."

The middle-aged man spoke up again.

Jing Chen paused, looked at the middle-aged man, and then raised his head to look around,

All around, on the original riverside streets, there were pedestrians walking by from time to time, and there were some snack vendors in the long queue near Old Man Hong.

The shops on the other side of the street are also open.

It was indeed a lively and peaceful scene.

As the middle-aged man said, most of the people who walk on the road have no idea about the real world, which is a bit bad.

It's just that under the difficult maintenance of the abnormal bureau, he lives his life as usual, three meals a day.

Strictly speaking, this is indeed a big lie, deceiving enough people, and the Anomalies have not been able to change and expose this lie.

But at the moment,

There was also something like that happening on this street where the Anomalies had captured the man with the power of demagogy in that alley.

The number of pedestrians passing by dwindled silently until the last passer-by looked around and hurried by.

The vendors on the side of the road also moved, as if they thought that there were few people, so they packed up their stalls and rode away.

Across the street, shops also closed their doors, and the people left the neighborhood one after another.

Only the long queue in front of Old Man Hong's stall, probably under the influence of fate, was still stubbornly there.

Apparently...... It was Lao Chen and the others who left who were doing something.

Turning his gaze back, Jing Chen looked at the middle-aged man again,

The middle-aged man faced Jing Chen, as if he didn't care about what was happening behind him,

A smile reappeared on his face, and he continued with his previous words,

"When it comes to creating lies, the Bureau of Anomalies does a better job than we do...... Well, I smell some lies again. It seems that the Bureau of Anomalies is really good at doing this."

The middle-aged man exhaled again, with a smile on his face.

"Then you're not leaving? Think there's nothing the Bureau of Divers can do with you?"

"No, I always have the utmost vigilance and expectation of powerful official organizations."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man raised his gaze and looked at the mysterious and powerful man in front of him.

He naturally had a plan to escape, but he underestimated the strength of this mysterious man.

At this moment, try to get out in front of this powerful man,

It felt like tore off all his original disguises and turned into a tiptoeing clown.

"Is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Jing Chen looked at the middle-aged man and asked again.

"Sir, we are not enemies. Perhaps the Anomaly and the Powerful should focus more on our Lord."

"My Lord is a lie and a deception, and even if she comes, there will not be much movement, only quietly...... The Great Lord will come at an unexpected time."

The middle-aged man still said calmly, unabashedly his attitude,.... "Well, in addition, maybe we should pay more attention to the existence of Mother Earth, the Mother of Life, behind the Fountain of Youth."

"Then speak of your Lord. When did you become a believer in her?"

While Jing Chen asked again, his eyes also looked at the middle-aged man and focused his attention,

The middle-aged man didn't dare to look at Jing Chen, and subconsciously lowered his gaze,

"I was born in a lie, and I was resurrected again in a lie. It was the Lord who deceived death so that I could return."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man's eyes revealed some reverence.

"And you are now a betrayal of your lord?"

"Of course

No. I believe in deception and lies, and that is my greatest devotion and faith in my Lord."

"The greatest lie is, of course, directed to the Lord."

The special behavior of a middle-aged man, taking the identity of a middle-aged man, seems to be understandable,

If you are a bystander, you can't understand it.

"My lord is hiding in lies and deceit. Everything she says will be true, and everything she does will be true."

"The land where she has arrived will be happy and fulfilling, peaceful and tranquil, and all will be immersed in the gracious kingdom of the Lord."

The middle-aged man spoke up again.

Jing Chen also peeked into the future of this middle-aged man.

Indeed, he is the leader of the group of those who wield the power of demagogy and deception, known as the Substitute.

The information I got from the future picture could not find any conflict with what the middle-aged man said now.

However, even the middle-aged man in the future picture exudes the power of demagogy anytime and anywhere.

Other words...... This middle-aged man's words are either all true, or everything he says is a lie anytime and anywhere.

From the future picture, it is difficult to judge the truth or falsehood of this middle-aged man's words.

His gaze fell on the middle-aged man again, Jing Chen paused, and then raised his gaze to look behind the middle-aged man,

In the shadow under a tree next to him, Jing Chen felt the shadow of the reptilian incarnation.

In the light that passed through the gap in the trees, Lao Chen's avatar hid in it.

In addition to the stall of Old Man Hong, there are no pedestrians passing by at all.

Probably the middle-aged man also felt the changes around him, and the piety and fanaticism in his eyes faded,

A smile on his face again.

"Lies and deception are approaching again, and it seems that my friends in the Anomaly still have some thoughts about me."

After saying a word, the middle-aged man looked at Jing Chen again, and then lowered his head.

"Sir, I wonder if you, who are strong and kind, can you also give me some inspiration?"

The middle-aged man asked humbly.

"What do you want to know?"

"I want to know, has the Lord come?"

"Probably not."

Jing Chen paused and replied.

He couldn't be completely sure, peeking into the future in the recent past.

There are no big changes and changes in the picture, everything is ordinary.

Of course, it may also be, as the middle-aged man said, that "lies and deception" have come quietly.

However, judging from the feeling alone, Jing Chen still feels that at least at this moment and for a short time in the future, this god who holds lies and deception has not yet come to this world.

"Thank you, sir. Can I ask again, will I die in the near future?" "No. But everything can change."

If this middle-aged man will die in the near future, he will see it first.

Listening to Jing Chen's words, the middle-aged man first paused, then lowered his head and seemed to be a lot more relieved.

"Thank you, sir, for your revelation. Do I need to pay you?"

"I've got some potions here."

The middle-aged man humbly and respectfully took out some potion materials from himself and placed them on the stall where Jing Chen was spreading.

Jing Chen glanced at it, didn't speak, just looked behind the middle-aged man.

The shadow under the tree has moved behind the middle-aged man with the deflection of light,

Make sure that Jing Chen finished communicating with the middle-aged man.

A shadow quickly climbed up the hands and feet of the middle-aged man to restrain him,

At the same time, Lao Chen emerged from the light, and after launching an attack on the middle-aged man,

With the assistance of the reptile, he took out something that resembled a vine and tied it to the middle-aged man.

「…… Tatsu investigator, self-investigator. I didn't say I was going to run away, so why be so nervous."

I saw that the vine fell on the middle-aged man, and it followed the middle-aged man's body

The upper skin is rooted downward, and at the same time, like a python that binds people, the middle-aged man who is bound is tightened more and more.

But although the middle-aged man was already aware of the existence of the investigator of the Investigation Bureau, he did not resist at the slightest at this moment.

Just let the people of the Anomaly Bureau easily control him.

Jing Chen turned his gaze and paused when he looked at the vines on the middle-aged man's body that controlled the middle-aged man and grew wantonly at the same time.

Obviously, it is a special item in the possession of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau, and it is estimated that it has some special effect if it dares to be used to tie up this middle-aged man.

"Sir."

After controlling the middle-aged man, Lao Chen looked at Jing Chen again,

Jing Chen nodded and didn't say anything.

The middle-aged man who was controlled next to him smiled, raised his head again and looked at Jing Chen, and then lowered his head again.

As a devout believer in lies and deception in the world, he had a way to escape.

But in front of the gaze of this mysterious and powerful man, he still chose to give up for the time being.

Immediately after, this side ended, and some investigators from the periphery of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau also rushed over, surrounded by the middle-aged man who was under control, but did not get any closer.

The people queuing in front of Old Man Hong's booth over there were a little curious and looked at this side, but they were probably afraid of leaving the *** line, so they still stubbornly stood in place.

"It's quite big. Tatsu investigator, self-investigator. Actually, I didn't do anything, did I?"

"The Fountain of Youth, which they take voluntarily, is even willing to exchange money and resources for."

"And everyone who wielded the Dream Dagger knew very well the price of making a wish. It's fair, isn't it?"

The middle-aged man didn't face Jing Chen, just looked at the other investigators and said with a smile.

When this middle-aged man spoke out loud, his actions and words always carried the power of demagogy.

Hearing Jing Chen's ears, it was like a mosquito buzzing and annoying.

Several ordinary investigators paused, their eyes briefly flickering, but then quick and clear.

Lao Chen and the reptile were indifferent, and they didn't pay too much attention to the middle-aged man. The reptile looked, and then, together with the other investigators, took the middle-aged man who seemed to be bound away from here,

Leaving Jing Chen and Lao Cheng behind, they are still in this fortune-telling booth.

"Sir, I don't know......

Lao Chen looked at Jing Chen and spoke again.

Jing Chen knew what Lao Chen wanted to ask, and basically repeated the conversation with the middle-aged man just now to Lao Chen.

Let Lao Chen and the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau determine the truth or falsehood of what the middle-aged man said.

After listening to this, Lao Chen was silent and did not speak for a while.

Jing Chen didn't say anything more, just diverged some thoughts along this related matter.

If it is purely according to what the middle-aged man said.

Then he appeared here, and the purpose of communicating with Jing Chen or the Abnormal Investigation Bureau was very clear.

After creating three lies that turned into truth, using the advent of the "God of Deception and Lies", the middle-aged man who has strengthened his own power does not want "Deception and Lies" to come.

It wasn't necessarily that he was scared as he said, or it could be that he didn't want a god with a more powerful power of deception to appear on his behalf.

But because of what he said, there was a big lie in this world, and he couldn't prevent the "gods" from coming.

So reveal enough information to the Bureau of Investigation, hoping that the Bureau of Coordination can prevent this from happening.

There may even be a plan to divert the attention of the Anomalies so that he can continue to improve his strength.

But......

Herein lies the problem.

This is the purpose of a middle-aged man to tell the truth completely.

But this middle-aged man is a believer in deception and lies,

There may not be a single truth in the words.

Perhaps it is to divert the attention of the Anomaly Bureau and focus more time and energy on the big lie that already exists.

Thus ignoring what he made

Three absurd lies.

In the end, because of the three ceremonies he presided over, "deception and lies" really came.

This is the second possibility,

There are third, fourth, fifth......

It is even possible that both ideas existed at the same time.

He wanted to distract from the Anomaly and improve his strength, but at the same time he did not reject the arrival of his Lord as a fanatical believer.

In this case,

The train of thought seems to be in a dilemma.

「…… Thank you, sir, for your advice."

After Lao Chen was silent for a while, he raised his head again and thanked Jing Chen,

Then he paused, and then said,

"The Bureau of Anomalies may act at the same time to solve the spread of those three lies as soon as possible."

"But...... The original lie mentioned by the agent ......"

This is something that the Bureau of Anomalies cannot solve.

It is impossible for the Abnormal Bureau to tear apart the current order and peace, which will only bring disastrous consequences.

While most of the world is in a panic, memetic mystical messages continue to spread.

The world will only get worse, even worse than the God of Deception and Lies.

But here's the problem...... This is indeed a lie.

The Bureau of Anomalies is only barely trying to maintain itself.

That...... Is there nothing there is to stop this god who holds the power of lies and deception from coming?

What will happen to the world after it comes, living in a lie? ....How to deal with the existence of such conceptual lies?

Lao Chen thought down, his eyes couldn't help but be a little dazed, and then quickly recovered, as calm as ever.

"Sir, can you know when the God of Lies will come?"

"I'm not sure, but she shouldn't be in this world in a day or two...... In addition, the existence of Mother Earth may require you to do just as much."

"I know ......"

When Jing Chen said this, he felt a strong sense of depression and despair.

I couldn't help but raise my head and look at the sky.

Lao Chen listened to Jing Chen's words, paused, lowered his head, and responded.

Standing up again, raising his head again, Lao Chen took his leave.

"Sir, there is something else."

"I'll take my leave first, and I'll bring someone to visit another day, hoping that Mr. will give me some advice. A little inspiration for those of us who are approaching a dead end."

"Hmm."

Jing Chen answered and didn't speak again.

Lao Chen stopped, turned around and hurried away.

Jing Chen watched Lao Chen walk away and sat down behind the stall again.

Looking back, Old Man Hong's stall didn't seem to have been affected.

is still telling fortunes to one guest after another.

「…… Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, although you have had many quarrels before, but when you return home this time, all disputes will naturally ease."

"After that, we must be lenient and understanding with each other...... Remember that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and don't interfere with them and ruin the blessings of your children and grandchildren."

"I remember, thank you, Master Hong."

"Well, go ahead...... Don't thank me, it's all fate."

"Yes...... Be...... Everything is the best arrangement of fate."

Watch an old lady leave the stall with a thread of fate on her head.

Jing Chen, who was already a little upset, exerted his strength again,

Broke a thread of fate.

I watched the old lady stand there and was stunned for a moment, and then turned to leave.

Jing Chen's irritable mood was relieved a lot,

Nodding in satisfaction.

Then he sighed again.

If only all "gods" had a "fate" so easy to bully.

This was beaten

Silent.

Maybe fate doesn't care about these broken silk threads.

Jing Chen thought about it, and was a little irritable,

Raising his hand, he rubbed the Blood Eagle on his shoulder fiercely.

"Tweet ......"

"Don't scream, I'll add you a bun for the night."

The blood eagle's blood-colored feathers were smoothed down Jing Chen's hand.

Jing Chen didn't turn his head, and said something in passing.
