Chapter 3579 Witch's Stage (23)
Q: This is an artificial paradise with no worries about food, accommodation and entertainment, so why is Brother Bin crying?
A: I am an illegal resident with no identity. I can only get a few bites of food in the canteen of the logistics park with the help of magic talismans... I have to get food to feed Ah Xing at night. It's a life of fear and it's really unbearable.
……
……
"...So, after you escaped from that hospital, you never went back, and you don't know the exact location of Da Liu Sir who was captured with you at the time?"
"Well... although we have secretly inquired about it during this period, we have not gained anything." Lin Guobin sighed, "By the way, Lin Feng, how did you come to the [Human Emperor Realm]?"
"The situation is quite complicated. I'll explain it later." Lin SIR interrupted and said, "By the way, where is Yun Xinghe now? Is he safe?"
"We all live in a sewer outside the logistics park... it's relatively clean." Lin Guobin lowered his voice and said, "Axing has been collecting materials to make talismans. We plan to find an opportunity to sneak away from this place."
"Huh?" Lin SIR asked in surprise, "Have you found a way to leave?"
"This is the place." Lin Guobin pointed to the ground. "According to our observations during this period, things produced in the Human Emperor Realm will be sent out through various logistics parks every once in a while... and the channel will be opened at that time. I am trying to figure out their delivery pattern, and I will start the action as soon as Ah Xing is ready... I didn't expect to run into you at this time."
Mr. Lin and Lin Guobin had only not seen each other for two days, but for Lin Guobin, it was already more than two months. He could clearly feel that Lin Guobin had become more serious... probably because he was forced to do so.
The two talked for a while.
Lin Guobin whispered, "It's time for me to have dinner. If I don't go back, it will arouse suspicion... I'm going back first. If there's anything, we can talk after work."
"Go back right after get off work." Lin SIR nodded: "I will come to find you."
Lin Guobin said nothing. He calmly took the plate and walked to the team collecting the plates. Then Mr. Lin looked at Xiao Afei, "By the way, what did you want to say to me just now?"
Ah Fei thought for a moment and said, "The Big Liu SIR that person just mentioned is my Big Liu... I left a space mark on him, originally for the convenience of timely support in case of emergencies... Now, I sense the aura of the mark here again, but it is very obscure."
"Try to sense the location of this mark." Lin SIR thought for a moment and said, "When the opportunity is right, we will go and rescue him."
Xiao Afei nodded, silently picked up a chicken leg from his plate and put it on Lin SIR's plate, muttering: "You eat it, I'm not hungry!"
——You were a dirty adult before.
Mr. Lin couldn't help but smile.
"I don't know what's going on with Ximenka."
……
……
Senior staff can enjoy more benefits in the cafeteria... In a small private room, [Eclipse] took out a fist-sized metal ball from his arms with an expressionless face and placed it on the table.
The sphere cracked and seemed to release something, but Ximenka couldn't tell what it was.
"This is a signal blocking device." [Eclipse] said calmly: "Don't be fooled by the peacefulness here, but in fact we are being monitored all the time... Be careful."
Ximenka's eyes lit up slightly, "It seems that you have been staying in this place for quite a while."
"Don't test me." [Eclipse] said directly: "Simon, since you can find your way here, it must be because you already know something... I need you to answer a few questions for me first, okay?"
"ask."
[Eclipse] was silent for a moment, then asked seriously: "Did I give you something?"
"Yes."
[Eclipse] looked as if he understood everything, and then continued, "How did I die... or rather, do you know how I died?"
This question sounded very strange, but Ximenka answered truthfully: "You were assassinated first, but I didn't see the murderer... Then, your ghost was taken away by two wandering gods."
"Describe the manner of my death."
Simonka gave a brief description.
This time [Eclipse] was silent for a long while before he heaving a long sigh, "Finally... have you read what I gave you?"
Simonka answered in the affirmative.
[Eclipse] nodded as if to be expected. "Okay, I have asked all my questions... Now it's your turn. What do you want to ask?"
Ximenka stared at the other person expressionlessly, "You, what exactly are you? Are you really [Eclipse]?"
“You can say that.” [Sky Eclipse] said calmly: “When you see with your own eyes that the [Sky Eclipse] you knew is indeed dead, then I will be the only [Sky Eclipse] so far.”
"Are there many [Eclipses]?" Simon Ka couldn't help but frown.
"There is only one [Eclipse]... but many can be produced here."
Ximenka frowned even deeper, "Be specific."
[Eclipse] thought for a moment and said, "[Infinite City], you can think of it as a box. In this box...everyone who has lived there will have something called [Genetic Information] quietly collected by the group. It can be used to produce corresponding people...including me, and even you."
"Me?" Simon Ka felt a slight chill on his back.
"You have been active in Infinite City for such a long time, the group must have known your information long ago." Eclipse sighed, "Even just a hair would be enough."
"Are you sure you're not kidding?" Ximenka took a deep breath. "According to you, you and I sitting here are not real?"
"There is no real or fake." [Eclipse] said seriously: "If the previous [Eclipse] is no longer here, then the current me is the real one... As for you, you are very lucky. I can only say that up to now, you should still be the original one. Because, you have not encountered idiopathic death yet."
"A question." Ximenka said in a deep voice: "How do you know I'm the original one?"
"I've been to that factory." [Eclipse] said in a deep voice: "I've seen your information, which shows that you haven't been [out of the factory]. But this time, almost everyone in [Infinite City] has [been out of the factory] once... and many of them are [out of the factory] for the first time."
"You mean, after last night's incident, almost everyone in [Infinite City] was killed?" Simon Ka was shocked.
"Based on the current situation, I'm afraid so... Although, this result is hard to accept." [Eclipse] smiled bitterly for the first time, "Simon, after knowing the truth, do you still plan to continue investigating?"
Ximenka's eyes flickered.
“You may think I’m crazy.” [Eclipse] shook his head and said, “But you’ve read the information I gave you. You should know that the group has a [factory] somewhere that can manufacture this kind of thing.”
“Blood Saint…” Ximenka subconsciously picked up the cup and took a sip. Even though he was sitting on a thick chair, he still felt as if he was suspended in midair… This was a terrifying thing for a great monk. “It seems that being a detective will not end well. Sooner or later, you will fall into the abyss because of your curiosity.”
"Besides you, has anyone else seen that information?" [Eclipse] suddenly asked.
Ximenka shook his head and said calmly, "No, I'm the only one who has seen it... It also opened automatically after a certain time. I later tried to find more clues. I went to your office, and my spirit beast detected your scent and deduced that you might have [resurrected from the dead]. Finally, I found the space crack where you disappeared in the [Sky Tower], and then came to this place."
[Eclipse] couldn't help but frown, "This is impossible, that passage should have been closed... I checked it, how did you find it?"
Ximenka shrugged and said, "It's not closed. When I found it, it was half open... It took me some effort to get in."
[Eclipse] frowned even deeper, "Could there be someone else who knows about that passage?"
Ximenka suddenly asked, "Why, is this passage very secret? [Eclipse], are you alone... or with a group?"
"What a terrifying intuition." [Eclipse] sighed, "As you can see, I can travel back and forth between [Human Emperor Realm] and [Infinite City]. It is indeed not something that I can do alone... But I cannot reveal their existence to you at the moment."
Ximenka thought for a moment and said, "I don't understand... Could it be that the manufactured [people] can really seamlessly connect all memories? Do all the people who appeared in [Infinite City] today know that they were manufactured? If not... you, how can you confirm whether you have been [factory-made] if something happens?"
"It's nothing special." [Eclipse] said calmly: "Once I leave the factory, my memory will be reset... There will be a blank period of only two or three days. In fact, the group will strengthen the memory of those who leave the factory to ensure that nothing here is leaked... The reason why I know is not because I can recall it, but because I have [stored] what I know. I will ensure that I will not be discovered by constantly clearing and [reading] these memories."
Ximenka frowned and said, "So what you know is actually what you read from your [Storage] this time... Are you so sure that these [Storage] are also true?"
[Eclipse] said helplessly: "Simon, your attitude of doubting everything is good... But I am also a detective. I have already dispelled my doubts and accepted these."
Ximenka shook his head: "You are very calm."
"Otherwise I'll just go crazy."
Simonka looked deeply at this former friend who seemed so familiar and yet so strange... Perhaps he had gone crazy at this moment?
"Why did you come back this time?"
"I hope to put an end to all this." [Sky Eclipse] said in a deep voice: "This is also what [we] have been trying to do all along... Ximen, in the entire [Infinite City], do you know how many people there are? So many people have been replaced, do you feel terrified? But what if I tell you that the [genetic information] stored by the group even covers the entire [Fire Cloud City]? Including all the places that the group has radiated to... All the lower continents, the entire human race?"
"This is impossible!" Simon Ka almost lost his composure...and his voice.
[Eclipse] sighed, "Of course it's impossible now. No matter how powerful the group is, it can't quietly replace all the human race... But it has been developing for so many years and has already collected countless information. Hundreds, thousands, thousands of years later... Who knows what the result will be?"
The small room was as silent as a stagnant pond, except for the sound of Simon Ka's heartbeat which he could not hide no matter what.
"Why did you give me that information?" Ximenka said in a hoarse voice. "If you can't get it back when the time comes, it means that you have already prepared to let me know about this."
"Yes." [Eclipse] nodded. "I know your character well. You will definitely keep investigating... When you realize that the corner behind this conspiracy is as terrifying as the abyss, I think you will make these things public."
"But you can publish it yourself."
"They found me." [Eclipse] shook his head, "They knew I stole a piece of information... so you saw that I was [killed]. But they didn't find the information, so this time they [resurrected] me and [expelled] me at the same time, probably intending to let me take the initiative to find the information."
"They..." Ximenka pondered, "Are they from the group... or are they part of the 'you' you mentioned?"
[Eclipse] gave a bitter smile. This colleague was really too scary. "We... did have some disagreements among us. Some of us have already sided with the group. Currently, those of us who are still holding on... have retreated to the [Human Emperor Realm] and dare not contact them easily."
"...When you came back this time, has the group discovered you?"
"Probably not yet." [Sky Eclipse] shook his head, "In [Human Emperor Realm], I have several different identities... This is also the result we have achieved at a great cost."
"Aren't you afraid that someone has discovered me?" Simon Ka suddenly asked.
[Eclipse] said: "I am willing to contact you because there is no problem with my observation for the time being... In fact, if I were discovered, the group would immediately send people to capture me instead of letting me chat with you here."
Ximenka nodded, "One last question."
"You said."
Ximenka said calmly: "Why should I believe you?"
"You can choose not to believe anyone." [Eclipse] said calmly without any surprise, "You need to see it with your own eyes, to verify it, and to dig it out. There is plenty of time here, enough for you to believe it."
……
……
"…Did he really say that?"
Simonka shrugged and took out a recorder.
Lin SIR shook his head, indicating that it was not necessary. Instead, he asked in a very serious manner: "Did [Eclipse] reveal their actions to you in the end?"
"I don't believe him." Ximenka shook his head and said, "Just like he and the people behind him won't easily believe me... However, he promised me that he would try his best to introduce their leader to me, but it will take time."
Mr. Lin nodded. "This group of people have been able to lurk in the Human Emperor Realm for such a long time, and they have been able to act quietly without being noticed by the group. I believe they really have some abilities... Moreover, they know a lot of the group's secrets. It wouldn't hurt to meet them if I have the chance."
"This is a place that Eclipse arranged for us to stay. It will be very troublesome for us to go there without our ID cards after dark... Of course, if you want to use force, just ignore what I said."
"Before that, I have to meet someone."
"?"
……
The place couldn’t be described as good, but at least it wasn’t uncomfortable… The capital’s sewers were unexpectedly clean—two single tents were set up next to the canal.
When Mr. Lin brought Simon Ka and Ah Fei to the scene, Lin Guobin was cooking something over a fire next to the canal.
Suddenly a figure walked out of one of the tents.
"Simenka?"
“Yun Xinghe, when I first heard the name, I was thinking… I didn’t expect it to be you!”
