Lao Mai raised a hand and opened his palm and said.
He Zhou directly stretched out his left hand. Seeing this, Lao Mai also stretched out his left hand and touched He Zhou.
5,000 credit points were successfully transferred from He Zhou's name to Lao Mai's name.
This is an offline credit point that can bypass Skynet's monitoring.
"Here, here is the CD you wanted, enjoy it."
After Lao Mai handed the CD to He Zhou, he stood up with a smile full of meaning.
He Zhou sat in the booth and played with the CD in his hand while sipping the coffee in his cup.
The last time he got the CD, he left in a hurry to read the contents on the CD.
But this time he was no longer anxious because he knew this was not a good experience.
It can even be said to be torture.
Since you are undergoing torture, there is nothing to rush about.
"Evil God..."
He Zhou murmured to himself.
What exactly is an evil god?
He wanted to find out the truth quickly, but he knew that the truth was still far away from him for the time being.
The amount of coffee in the cup gradually decreases.
Finally, after almost ten minutes, the coffee in the cup was finally empty.
It's time to go.
He Zhou stood up slowly, hid the box containing two CDs in his arms, and left the coffee shop.
It was already late at night, but the lights were still brightly lit outside.
Colorful neon lights emit messy and mottled light in the rain, adding a special color to this cold city.
After He Zhou walked out of the store, he instinctively glanced to the left.
That direction was the direction that a large number of mechanical security personnel were heading just now. It seemed that something big happened in that direction.
Buzz buzz——
At this time, police sirens were heard continuously from that direction.
The mechanical security team formed a circle to separate the onlookers from the site of the incident.
"Mind my own business."
He Zhou withdrew his gaze and quickly walked to the super building where he lived.
He himself is in danger now, so how can he care about the life and death of others.
He Zhou held an umbrella and walked back as quickly as possible.
The people on the road were all in a hurry, as if they had urgent things to do.
He Zhou has long been accustomed to all this. Most people in this era are very selfish.
Everyone only cares about his own life and doesn't care what others are thinking unless other people's thoughts interfere with his life.
Just like He Zhou, if it weren't for the strange events that happened at home that interfered with his life, he wouldn't have taken it seriously at all.
For example, if He Zhou heard about such a thing from the news, that someone's house is haunted, then He Zhou would just laugh it off and immediately look for the next news that can stimulate his senses.
His daily life is like this.
Until something happened to him.
He was forced to figure out the truth, forced to figure out the world he had long been accustomed to.
Or rather, the world he took for granted.
Maybe the world is not what he thought it was, who knows.
At least He Zhou has never thought in this direction.
After a long journey, He Zhou finally returned to the downstairs of the super building where he lived.
After verifying his ID, he walked into the high-speed elevator.
There were other people in the elevator. Most of these people were residents of this super building like him, but some were staff, such as food delivery people, express delivery people, etc.
Each super building is equivalent to an independent small community, where a variety of people live and therefore have a variety of needs.
For example, there is a person in the elevator who is obviously a manicurist and may be providing door-to-door services to a beautiful woman.
He Zhou's eyes kept moving, observing these strange and familiar people.
Everyone's expression is different.
Some people are obviously eager to do something with a clear purpose, while others have tired faces and look like they have had a tiring day.
Once upon a time, He Zhou was just like them, with a single emotion.
Either I am tired after a long day and continue to rest, or I have something to do urgently.
But now, he found that he could calm down and observe the world.
Observe other people in the world.
This was something he had never been able to do before.
In other words, he never thought about observing other people before.
In his mind, other people were just tools and part of this world.
He never treated other people as independent individuals.
"When can I be like them again?"
He Zhou suddenly remembered the scene he saw on the CD last night.
That image has been deeply ingrained in his mind, and it will pop up from time to time, giving him a very bad feeling.
Now, the appearance of this picture brought his thoughts back instantly.
He Zhou instantly forgot all about the other people in the elevator, his mind was filled with images in his mind.
He tried hard to forget those images, but unfortunately he couldn't.
"We must understand the truth about this world! We must quickly understand the truth about the world!"
He Zhou thought secretly in his heart.
Of course, the people around him didn't notice the change in He Zhou's expression at all.
They all only care about their own affairs and don't care about other people around them.
The changes in other people's emotions and expressions are just a little embellishment in the world to them.
These embellishments are not important at all.
"Ding dong!"
The elevator chime sounded, and then the elevator door slowly opened.
He Zhou looked up and saw that it was his own floor, so he quickly squeezed out of the crowd and got off the elevator.
There were noisy radio and TV sounds outside.
The super building is very large, and there is a holographic screen at the elevator entrance on each floor, just like a small square.
At this moment, a breaking news is playing in the holographic image above.
"It is reported that the deceased died in a very horrific manner. His whole body was corroded by an unknown liquid and turned into a puddle..."
Hearing what was reported on the news, He Zhou stopped instantly and looked up at the holographic screen.
When he saw the picture, he was even more surprised.
Because the incident happened not far from the coffee shop where he just made the transaction.
"Is this where those mechanical security guards are surrounding you?"
He Zhou recalled.
When he left the coffee shop, he looked specifically in that direction, only to see a group of heavily armed mechanical security guards.
Those iron knots tightly surrounded the place where the incident occurred, making it impossible for onlookers outside to see what was going on inside.
Hezhou was so far away that it was naturally harder to see clearly.
But I didn't expect that such a terrifying thing would happen in that place.
When He Zhou saw that scene on the computer screen last night, he had difficulty adapting to it. If he saw it live, he would definitely feel even more uncomfortable.
"Why did this happen?"
He Zhou felt that all this was too weird.
He had only seen such a scene on a CD, and then something similar happened in the real world.
Is there any connection between the two?
Originally, He Zhou would not have thought in this direction, but who would have thought that the incident happened not far from the coffee shop where he traded?
At such a close distance, it's hard not to think of it.
