On the other side of Liberty City, Colin declined the invitation from Section 1, saying that he was assigned a new liaison officer and a new partner.
Things went very smoothly. What Colin didn't expect was that Irina was already a member of the second department. After telling everything about Pim, Opal, and the high command of the Countermeasures Bureau, Irina...
Lina chose to trust without hesitation.
Anyone can be questioned about their motives, but this man cannot be questioned, neither about the people he has killed nor the difficulties he faces.
No one wants to end this more urgently than he does.
Under Colin's pressure and Irina's encouragement, his ex-wife has been transferred from the second department.
But somehow.
Colin felt a little afraid, and he did not dare to face the woman directly.
What ruined this marriage was not the conflicts, quarrels, and hysteria, but the weird illness and Colin's extremely cruel, cruel, and indifferent abandonment of her when she was most helpless, confused and painful.
Irina said that she was transferred to a very safe nursing facility. Although it was still in the second department, the medical staff there were different from the madmen in the second department. They were just ordinary nurses, and there was no essential difference between them and the resort.
, Irina is solely responsible for it.
Colin originally planned to visit, but after Irina warned him, this approach was rejected.
"Why?"
"In that case, what's the point of doing all this?"
Colin's expression was a little sluggish. Although he said so, he was actually relieved. Even he himself felt angry at this mood.
He actually longed for Irina so much that he had a very valid reason, but he didn't have the courage to face that woman.
In the same cafe as before, the two former Section 11 personnel looked extremely gloomy.
"You understand, there are two ways to slow down the sinking speed of patients with submersible syndrome."
"The first is to make tokens, but it is better to say that it is to deepen the connection with the symbolic world, like the anchor of a sailboat, to stabilize it."
"The other thing is... to kill as many infected people as possible. The faster the latent disease spreads, the faster the infected people's condition will deteriorate."
"Many people have this kind of doubt: why is the latent disease spreading faster, but there are fewer and fewer incidents of people out of control violently killing people."
"It's because the number of infected people now has reached a relatively serious level. Unlike before, people who are not mentally strong enough usually take three days to a week to die after being infected. At this time
The incubation period is the most terrifying, as they will do extremely crazy things before they die."
"But now there is no need to consider this problem. As the base number increases, the incubation period becomes shorter and shorter. A large part of the newly infected people have been killed by the abyss before they go crazy."
Irina made this judgment. After the video footage shot by Di Bong was widely circulated, the abyssal disease spread even more severely, but on the contrary, the threat was reduced to a certain extent. The dead will not continue to affect other people.
However, we cannot make any assumptions before we fully understand the transmission path.
"But your wife's condition..."
"It has deteriorated to a more serious level. Because she has no professional means, she has been fighting alone."
"It was reversed under the extreme treatment of the second department, but it was also because there was no so-called... um... 'drug resistance' in the early stage."
Irina explained it in more common terms to make it easier for Colin to understand.
"But now it can no longer be solved by the first two methods."
"I call it hibernation therapy. It allows her to temporarily forget herself and take on another journey. This therapy is still under experiment, but your wife cannot wait until it is perfected and must start it immediately."
"So, you can't go there and do some stimulation, as that will speed up her death."
"As far as I know."
Irina suddenly paused mid-sentence, hesitating whether to tell Colin.
"What?"
Colin asked.
"She didn't say it herself, I just felt it from some words."
"She hates you very much."
"Very……"
After some words.
There was a long silence.
Colin fell silent.
…
…
…
An hour later.
Colin walked aimlessly and lost his mind on the poor streets of Brooklyn.
Things in Los Angeles.
It has caused a huge blow to the West Coast economy. With such huge fluctuations, it is logical that it has also affected the East Coast.
He remembered that this neighborhood, although it had changed a lot, had lived here for a long time, hanging out with some gangsters who had dropped out of school, most of whom were already in jail.
Many of the things in my impression have gradually disappeared, replaced by countless domestic garbage that no one has cleaned up and discarded everywhere, too many half-paralyzed drug addicts wandering around, and tents set up by homeless people.
The biggest phenomenon of social deformity is that due to structural problems, it cannot provide more jobs, but only creates virtual jobs in the sales network, gradually dragging everything down until everyone is unemployed.
A group of homeless people used iron buckets to roast garbage to keep warm. When they saw Colin approaching, their eyes lit up because he was wearing good things. But after seeing his face carefully, they gave up the idea of plundering.
In this cold winter, Colin couldn't help but gather his clothes. The ringworm on his arm became even colder and spread several inches further. His condition was also getting worse.
"Do you know what the truth is?"
"No one cares about your wife's life or death."
"She is nobody."
"You have more important things to do."
"So many days have passed, and Pim has been frozen into a mummy and is about to starve to death."
"And you are still revisiting your old place, taking a walk like a primary school student on a spring outing."
"You have more important things to do."
Opal's sarcoid breathed in Colin.
Colin got angry and pressed his fingers against the tumor, squeezing it hard, causing blood to ooze frequently. Opal's pain could be felt in Opal's choked throat.
But Opal was still struggling to pronounce words.
"Actually you don't care either."
"You no longer have any feelings for that woman."
"It's just your false sense of responsibility that's causing trouble."
"I just want to make you feel better."
"You are so hypocritical Colin, so hypocritical that it makes you laugh."
Opal sneered mercilessly, because Colin had no right to refuse at all. Everything was as stated in the book, and he would face the most terrifying abyss in the universe.
At this moment.
What the two of them didn't know was.
McConaughey's ability far exceeds everyone's imagination. Under that terrifying suggestion, anyone can be a puppet, and official systems and surveillance networks can also be infiltrated.
At the corner behind them, an uninvited guest had arrived.
White was wearing an inconspicuous down jacket and was following Colin. People often said that Liberty City was a good place, but White did not agree.
He wants to kill this man and return to the warm Mediterranean air.
