The bright red curtain was pulled open to both sides, the other lights in the auditorium were extinguished, and in the dimly lit space, eight circular spotlights cast bright columns of light that focused on the center of the stage.

It's a teenager playing the piano.

It was a young man who looked the same as Li Fan, wearing black trousers like a dress, and leather shoes on his feet that were so clean that they could reflect the surrounding scene, but his upper body was wearing a trench coat composed of pitch black flames, the hem was very long, almost hanging to the ground, and the trench coat was open, revealing angular chest and abdominal muscles.

and the hole where blood has dried up in the left chest.

The young man's slender ten fingers danced gracefully on the keys, and his body swayed with the emotions contained in the music, sometimes fierce and sometimes slow, as if he was fully immersed in the world of music, regardless of everything in the outside world.

One minute...... Three-minute ...... Five minutes......

Eventually, with a long note, the performance ended.

Li Fan, who had been frowning lightly during this period, suddenly heard applause erupting around him, he turned his head to look, there was no one in the audience in the next row except him, but there was applause, and it was so intense, it was as if there was an invisible audience sitting in every position.

With applause, the lights in the room turned on, the space lit up again, and the young man on the stage also got up, kept a polite smile at the corner of his mouth, nodded to the left and right, and finally bowed deeply to the front, that is, where Li Fan was.

When the boy straightened up, the applause suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, a miserable white mask with an exaggerated smile painted in red paint-like substance appeared on the boy's face.

"It's been a long time." He smiled and greeted Levan with a smile.

Li Fan stared at him for a while, and sighed softly: "Although I have made relevant mental preparations, it is still so uncomfortable when I really see you." ”

It's a lie that I encountered in the simulation of Kumar's underground experimental base before.,Although the special simulation is not the same as the simulation.,But the location is the same.,It's really possible to meet this guy in the simulation again.。

"Eh, don't be so disappointed, it's hard to meet once." Lying smiled, took a few steps to his side, and as if ignoring the elegant image he had just created, he sat on the edge of the stage and reached out to pull a book from his long trench coat made of pitch-black flames.

It is a book similar to an autobiography, with a frontal photograph of Levan on the cover, in which he has his left hand on his chest supporting his right elbow, and his right hand is raised and touching his chin in a contemplative motion, and at the very top of the cover, the words "Biography of Levan " are written in English in artistic font.

Li Fan stared at the book in Lies' hand and asked, "What is this?" ”

"A book made from your memory." Lie opened the book, "Let me see what you've been up to lately." ”

"Petrified Forest...... Sophia, it's not good to bully other little girls......"

"Skull Town, I didn't expect you to actually go back...... Let your own people and the outsiders live in peace, you still agreed, tsk, it's really boring......."

"Huh? Ha ha! It turns out that you kid is doing this! Not bad....... Hehe, I'm really curious what kind of expression Le Lianxue will have when she returns to Skull Town, and what kind of expression will she have when she knows that she has done it......"

"Finally, the special simulation of the interactive area," the lie casually threw the book away, "I said how the feeling this time is different from the last time, it turns out that it is not the same simulation. ”

"I want to change the future through this simulation, hehe, how do you feel now?" He tilted his head and smiled at Li Fan, "In this simulation, but my territory, as long as I don't agree, you won't get any information about the future." ”

"If you can't get information, you can't do things, you can't change the outcome, and you can only compromise in the face of the doomed crisis...... Caught in a desperate situation, there is no way back, hehe, are you in a hurry now? ”

The lie laughed happily, as if the more Levan got into trouble and became more powerless, the happier he became.

But gradually, his laughter stopped, because Li Fan, who was facing him, did not look panicked in the slightest, and lay his body back, his ten fingers crossed on his stomach, looking at him quietly with a flat expression.

"I'm in a hurry." Levan said to the lie, "So, what about you? ”

"If I can't change the future with simulation, I'm destined to choose negative traits in a crisis and accept the consequences of those traits, but overall, it's acceptable."

"But, what about you?"

"I'm sure you can understand that even if I choose the negative trait of 'lie', I will become the new 'lie', and you will disappear at that moment and die at that moment."

"Can you accept this consequence?"

Li Fan smiled lightly at him, with a hint of pity and sarcasm in his smile: "Please don't make a mistake, the person who is really in a desperate situation is not me, but you." ”

Lying was wearing a mask and couldn't see the expression below, he was silent for a while, and then laughed: "You and I are still the same person, I have experienced so many life and death crises since I was a child, you actually think I will be afraid of death?" ”

"Of course you're afraid." "Because I'm also afraid of death." ”

"It is precisely because I have experienced life and death that I will cherish my life more, and sometimes I will block everything including life to fight for something, but this does not mean that I despise life, it can only show that those things have a heavier value."

"What about you, what are you going to do with your life? Fun? ”

Li Fan sneered: "It's okay to lie to others, just lie to yourself." ”

"You're not a madman who would trade your life for pleasure."

"If you really wanted to make fun of me, you wouldn't show up here, but let the simulation go on as it should, only give me false, false information at critical moments, make me mistakenly think that the simulation was successful, and return to reality with confidence, only to be embarrassed by a completely different unfolding."

"And what about you now? I constructed this magnificent scene, appeared in a way full of compulsion, and laughed at my current situation without saying a word...... All of this is nothing more than a bluff for the negotiations that follow. ”

The lie didn't speak for a longer time this time, and even the pitch-black flames wrapped around his body were no longer burning, and he stared straight at Li Fan, the expression under the mask could not be seen, but it didn't think it would be a hippie smile.

"Looks like I guessed right." While smiling, Li Fan leaned forward and said, "However, we do have some common thoughts. ”

He put away his smile and said very seriously: "Lies, I want to make a deal with you." ”
