Chapter 88: Trouble is coming
In the evening, after the end of school, Colley took a leisurely carriage back to the restaurant.
Investigation takes time, and the discarders in the Tower Path are too good at hiding and seeking, not the unreasonable infiltration and elimination of gem secret realms, and it is really troublesome to catch them.
Bart must have been back a long time ago, and he had no money to go out to eat, and there was no place to stay in the city, so he had to keep circling at the door, occasionally crouching and waiting.
Ke Li got out of the car, walked up to him and asked, "How did you do it?" I didn't have class today and I still got into a fight with someone, so you don't have clothes like this when you go out, do you? ”
Bart frowned and hid his slightly trembling fist: "They did it first." ”
Ke Li opened the door of the store, threw his hat on the shelf, tore off his tie and tied his apron: "Reason, process, result." ”
As if he had been interrogated, Bart honestly confessed what had happened to him today, his tone full of anger from above, and some of the desire to win approval: "A lot of things happened today. ”
"First of all, my affairs became known, and everywhere I went, I was treated like an unlucky plague god."
"I don't know who spread the story, in short, my reputation is finished, many people know that I have a criminal record, saying that it is giving me a chance to correct it, and the next second they want to force the school to expel me."
"I thought that I only needed to endure until the research was successful, and I could prove my innocence! However, the teacher who was in class was taken away and said that he was suspected of stealing the factory's secret pharmaceutical formula......"
Before he could finish listening, Ke Li guessed the general development.
Oh, it seems that the tower path has not only not converged, but has instead intensified to engage people, but the means are more hidden, more like an ordinary business struggle.
Bart continued to confide, hoping to get a little support and help from his boss: "I know it's unbelievable, but those classmates, they are like crazy! ”
"They said that the teacher's arrest had something to do with me, that they didn't have classes, that they didn't have classes, that they didn't have to postpone their studies and exams, and that they were going to beat me."
"What about you?" Colley asked.
Bart bowed his head: "They were too many and wouldn't let me go, so I took advantage of the chaos to punch twice, scattered the backpacks and things of the roadblockers everywhere, and escaped while they were picking them up......"
Colley walked to the door, felt in the mailbox, and found that there were indeed letters sent by the school, mentioning that Bart had caused trouble on campus during the day, and even the seal was real.
Colley glanced at it a few times, and the whole article only mentioned Bart's mistakes, and never mentioned the abnormal situation of other classmates:
The mind of the person who set up the game is really so psychopathic, knowing that Bart is just an ordinary young man with no extraordinary abilities, but this method is forcing him to be cornered, and a wave of accidents and bullying come in a row?
No, in fact, the more you do it, the easier it is to be exposed.
From the perspective of the setter, an unlucky stupid boy like Bart who has no strength and no background, encounters a wave of cold treatment from his honest parents, and basically has no sound in this life.
But I never expected that because of the need to play the assessment, the Brave Hunt Church interfered and screened people in Ink Winter City, directly giving Bart a chance to come back and allowing his teacher to continue.
In other words, Bart himself is a piece of evidence, and the traces of experiments and drug reactions on his body can prove the source of the unproduced potion, which happens to be a dead end that pretenders can't tell.
In this way, the initial explosion accident should have been intended to kill Bart, then take away the research results and destroy the evidence, and take the formula of the potion for himself.
After all, who would believe that an ordinary student would have an expensive potion formula in his hand before graduating from college?
It's just that I don't know why, the other party's plan didn't succeed, and the follow-up operation predicted a series of mistakes.
Especially when encountering people like Ke Li who have an intuition about the path to the tower, their small movements are not easy to hide.
If Bart's original parents were replaced, he would have been told that every day should not be called the earth, and he could only wait to drop out of school and disappear from people's field of vision, not knowing when he would be wiped out.
"Please trust me......" Bart's voice was small, part scared and shaken, part angry and unwilling.
Ke Li nodded: "I can trust you, and I can also take you to the church to record and testify, you can organize your thoughts and logic first, if you contradict yourself with nonsense, it can't be used as evidence." ”
"Now you go clean up first."
"Thank you, Mr. Kidd." Bart gasped for relief, and he turned wearily to the back door, where he was lightly stabbed by the hidden crystal in the doorknob's hand.
"Is it static electricity?" Bart rubbed his fingers together and made preparations in the warehouse room.
The second test result, Bart was still angry:
"Dad, Mommy, why are you just watching!"
"Obviously, if you do these medicines well, the diseases caused by pollution and the pollution itself will be treated, why did you give up!"
"Didn't you say that you miss the vegetable fields and orchards of your hometown? Isn't it said that pollution and illness have always been very hard, I have been struggling for this dream, I will not hurt you! ”
"Why, why do you just refuse to stand up, just stand by and watch, in the end, no one is protected, not only lose more money, sign more unreasonable treaties, and now the teacher is also arrested!"
"Why can you give me all your faults with peace of mind, and if you admit it, you will be let go? Your naivety and stupidity are almost killing us all! ”
"If I have the power to resist, if I have the power to resist, damn it, what should I do......"
"Does Mr. Kidd really believe me? He wouldn't just just say casually, go to church and disassociate me from the school, and directly apply for my withdrawal......"
"No, I can't be caught by nightmares, I can't retreat, I'm going to move forward, I'm going to leave this place, I'm going to save my benefactor and teacher, it's definitely not okay to pay the price now!"
"I don't want to regret it for the rest of my life, I have to."
Colley was a little embarrassed when he heard this: How do you feel that Bart is more suitable to be the actor of the Prisoner of Perdition than himself?
He was deeply bound by the world and society, flying high at first, but immediately falling to the bottom. Obviously I have gained temporary freedom, but walking on the street is like going to prison like running into a wall everywhere.
Bart's anger and his desires erupted so bluntly and unabashedly, while Colli's side was a bad heart, headache, chronic torture, and malicious consumption that gave a little remorse and turned his head to rot.
"Maybe I feel from the bottom of my heart that a bad gambler like Gid is not worth saving."
"He is ordinary and stupid, and he will not become a knot in my heart. Self-proclaimed smart gambling dog, what gambling winning or losing technology, losing only one person or unwilling to sober up. ”
"Can I entrust the Brave Hunting Church to give him some militarization education? I guess they won't take this fat man in. ”
There is indeed a reward for playing, and Colley even feels a strange difference in talent, he himself is gradually getting used to playing others, while Bart expresses himself explosively.
"To express yourself, you have to face the true feelings of your heart, otherwise you will never be able to reach that truth, the truth that belongs to matter, consciousness, inspiration, and character."
"But once I express it, I'm not sure how things will turn out, and that's the root of my reluctance to gamble, and I'm not only tied to others, but also to myself."
"Okay, it's not like I didn't touch the door this time, at least I touched the doorknob and the keyhole, as for this key......"
"We have to find a way to force the people passing through the tower to show up, and if we can't find the key, we can use your heads to open the door."
