December 18, 440

I worked almost all night in the lab last night, so I didn't have time to update my diary until now.

As I suspected, we worked for more than a dozen hours, and in the end we couldn't figure out the cause of those brain changes.

In my report to Ether Exploration, I wrote:

“…… There must be some kind of complex and intricate internal structure of these 'heads', but they are like completely enclosed boxes, and none of the above conventional means can peek into the inside of these boxes, but we still have enough reason to believe that if we use the accelerator again and perform an acceleration collision experiment on these heads, it will be possible to obtain more information, and this is the only means we can obtain information about these 'heads' at present. ”

However, I guess Aether Exploration won't be conducting another collision experiment.

The last experiment cost so much and cost the life of a great witch, but in the end there was almost nothing. This is something that only a madman like Summernight can do, and now that she's gone, the board's usual style is not going to agree to my suggestion.

But I still included it in the report, which is a testament to the fact that I've been busy for so long, or at least not without results. And beyond that, I hope it can provide a little bit of cover for what I really want to do next.

I lied in the report to get the information of the 'head', the collision experiment was not the only way, at least I had thought of another one and was hesitant to put it into practice.

I plan to take a few "heads" and meet the "man" named Summer Night.

The reason is simple: since the appearance of the "head" has suddenly changed and become exactly like her, there must be some connection between the two. In addition to the fact that she still occupies the body of Lord Summer Night, it is even more obvious that she has something to do with this matter.

What will happen if I give her my head? Will she gain the power of the so-called "gods"? Or will it be like Lord Summer Night, who will split his head in an instant and become one of those "heads"?

If I'm going to do it, it has to be as soon as possible.

Since I can think of this, there is no reason why "aether exploration" can't be thought of, it's just that in the style of the board, making any decision has to be slow and debating for a few days, and this is my chance, and in these few days, I have to think about whether there is any way to quietly take the "head" out of the lab.

……

December 19, 440

Today a guy popped up in my lab and told me bad news, and good news.

The bad news is that "Aether Exploration" has noticed that the person who spoke the other day is the one named "Summer Night".

The good news is that there is still a bit of disagreement between the Lord and the other directors about what to do with Summer Night, so it will be at least a few days before the board takes action.

Then the man asked me if I needed to ask her for a favor. Like helping me get a few heads out of the lab.

I looked at her appearance, and there was nothing conspicuous about her, and if she were thrown into the crowd, I was afraid that she would disappear without a trace. But I didn't dare to despise her in the slightest, because one second I was alone in the lab, with those "heads", and the next second, she suddenly appeared behind me.

After a moment of silence, I told her solemnly: "You have broken into a place where you should not have entered, all I need to do is scream, and the black mask guarding the door will immediately rush in, arrest you, and take you away for interrogation." ”

The other party showed an indifferent smile: "You call it." ”

I immediately shouted, "Help!!" ”

Two black masks rushed in and asked me what was going on, and I pointed to her: "This person suddenly broke into the lab and coerced me at the same time. ”

The Black Mask glanced at each other, and one of them asked in a strange tone, "Did you mean there was someone here just now?" ”

"Isn't it just now, she's here now, can't you see it?!"

I can imagine that the expressions of the two black masks must have become even stranger after hearing my words, and one of them waved his arm, and several extremely thin silk threads shot out, passing through the intruder's body without the slightest hindrance.

The black mask withdrew the filament and said to me with a hint of pity: "Chairman Mosha, you are under too much pressure, maybe you should go back and rest." ”

I was stunned for a few seconds, and finally nodded: "I understand, maybe these weird heads put too much pressure on me, and when I finish dealing with the work in hand, I will apply for leave from the headquarters." ”

It wasn't until Black Mask left the lab that the intruder spoke again: "Can you consider my proposal now?" ”

"......" I looked at her, silent.

The other party seemed to see my concerns: "Don't worry, no matter what you say next, it won't be heard by anyone else, except me and you." ”

After hesitating for a while, I finally reluctantly gave up this opportunity in front of me, and asked, "...... What do you want me to do for you? ”

The other laughed: "Nothing." As I said, I'm here to 'do you a favor,' not to make a deal with you. ”

"Well, even if you can help me get the 'head' out, and then?"

"And then? Then it's up to you, you can do whatever you want, I don't bother to care, even if you give them to others, it's none of my business. ”

Hearing this, I suddenly understood the intention of the person in front of me: she even wanted to give the "head" to Xia Ye, but for some reason, she didn't want to go through her own hands, so she needed someone to do it for her, and I was this person.

"What if I refuse your help?" I asked.

"It's not going to be good." The other party made a helpless gesture, "Even if you refuse, I won't kill you, Chairman Mosha, at most, I will only cut out this memory of you - and this is also for your safety, I believe you can understand." ”

Of course, I can understand that since the two Black Masks turned a blind eye to her, I knew that I didn't have any power to resist in front of her, and that the other party could promise not to kill me, which was already a great kindness.

Because of this, I have a little more trust in this uninvited guest, and this trust has finally made me make up my mind.

"Please do me a favor." I saluted her, and asked in the most sincere tone.

The other party bowed his head slightly, came to the experimental table, turned his head and asked, "How many do you want to take away?" ”

I never thought about it, and casually said the number: "Three...... Three of them. ”

"Okay."

The man picked up her head and threw it into the rudimentary cloth bag she carried with her, like a customer picking melons at a fruit stand, and after loading the three heads, she smiled at me again:

"I hope you can leave work on time today and go home early to rest."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and gently wiped it beside her, a zipper appeared out of thin air, she unzipped it, revealing a colorful and strange space behind her, and after stepping into it, she waved goodbye to me before retracting her upper body as well. Then, the zipper closes and disappears without a trace.

I suddenly realized who she was!

Although there is no evidence, I know that it must be her, and it is precisely because of her that the events just now and the events of a year ago can be connected and thus become reasonable.

Does she also believe that Lord Summer Night is not really dead? I can't help but think so.

……

Since both Black Mask and the Great Witch had advised me not to work overtime, I decided to follow their advice.

As soon as it was time to leave work, I left the lab and returned home as fast as I could.

When I opened the door, my eyes were immediately drawn to the coffee table, where the three "heads" that the man had taken from the laboratory were neatly arranged.

The person in charge of the whale exchange said that he could help me get in touch and meet with "Summer Night".

"If it's fast, maybe we'll see you tomorrow." The other party thought that I had business to cooperate with "Summer Night", so he was happy to help with this.

……

December 22, 440

Lin told me that the other party replied that we could meet at half past nine this morning.

Finally this moment has come.

When I get back, I'll update my journal for today, if I'm still alive by then.
