303. Chapter 300 New Chapter 0274 Consciousness Chain
"Then... Meng Nan, can you guess what his next plan is?"
When it comes to calculating people's hearts, only Li Mengnan can keep up with Aina's thinking rhythm. Even if Wu Ansu is no longer willing to admit defeat, he has to ask for help from Li Mengnan.
"Even if I were a roundworm in her belly, I couldn't possibly know what she was thinking." Li Mengnan spread his hands to express his helplessness.
Women are so blind. Once they trust and rely on you, they will feel that you are omnipotent.
Looking at Wu Ansu's slightly disappointed expression, Li Mengnan also realized that it was meaningless just to say such sarcastic remarks. He thought for a while and said: "It's just a waste of time to guess so hard now. You might as well agree to the other party's conditions first and see.
What exactly does he want to do? It’s possible that he will reveal his flaws in the process. But in my personal opinion, the purpose of his conditions is not as simple as it seems on the surface."
Probably the conditions proposed by Aina were too reasonable and normal, but Li Mengnan felt that there seemed to be some kind of abnormality in them.
Of course, he had no basis, it was just a subconscious intuition.
Wu Ansu nodded, turned around, took a step forward to face Aina, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I can agree to your conditions on behalf of our police, but you must promise not to hurt the hostages again, and not to use your abilities during this period.
Do anything to the hostages..."
"Some of you can tell whether I move or not." Aina gave Li Mengnan a meaningful look.
Li Mengnan shrugged helplessly, noncommittal.
"That's it...Xiao Wang, just do as he says."
While giving instructions to a young police officer, Wu Ansu secretly gave him a wink, indicating that he would notify the police station to make corresponding ambush preparations.
Although she didn't think that such an arrangement would have much effect on Aina, but as Li Mengnan said, it's better to show off her tactics as soon as you see them, than to do nothing.
Not long after, the police officer responsible for contacting the bureau ran back and whispered in Wu Ansu's ear that everything was ready.
Wu Ansu signaled the other party to go back and stand by, and ordered other police officers to evacuate the onlookers.
After the entire corridor was cleared, Wu Ansu came to Aina and said: "I have prepared a filled car for you. It is parked downstairs now. I hope you can keep your promise and not hurt the hostages... In the end, I still
As I said before, even if you can escape for a while, you can't escape forever, and it's not too late to stop now."
"Officer, I'm touched by your professionalism, but I won't bother you to worry about my affairs..." Aina smiled charmingly, and pushed the shard of glass in her hand towards the kidnapped girl's throat again, and said sternly
: "Get your people out immediately! From now on, no one from the police is allowed to appear in my sight, otherwise don't blame me for breaking my promise!"
"Okay, we'll leave right away."
Wu Ansu raised his hand and made a retreat gesture, and the police forces deployed on the floor began to gradually evacuate in an orderly manner. However, there were always a few people who intentionally or unintentionally kept a distance of about ten meters from Aina, stroking her waist covertly.
Hold the handle of the gun and keep an eye on the opponent's every move.
In order to prevent being attacked from behind, Aina always moved slowly with her back against the wall, completely hiding most of her body behind the kidnapped girl, and adjusted her posture from time to time to not give the police any opportunity.
Just when Wu Ansu and Li Mengnan retreated into the stairwell, they suddenly heard two violent bangs coming from the corridor. It seemed that a certain bedroom door had been violently broken.
The sudden change caught everyone by surprise.
"What's going on? Is he going to jump out of the window and escape?" Wu Ansu asked in shock.
No one thought this was possible. This was the sixth floor after all. Unless Aina could fly to the sky and escape, she would either die or be disabled if she jumped.
Li Mengnan vaguely felt that he might have overlooked some crucial link. Suddenly a flash of thought flashed through his mind and he shouted: "No! 610!"
He finally knew what he had overlooked - in fact, from the beginning, Aina's purpose of taking hostages was to enter the 610 dormitory, negotiate terms with the police, and make a gesture of escaping, which was just a cover-up to cover up this purpose.
.
"610? What 610?" Wu Ansu was confused by Li Mengnan's confused voice.
But at this moment, she no longer needed Li Mengnan to answer her questions, because in the empty corridor, there was only one bedroom door open, and it was dark inside, like the mouth of a monster that chooses people to eat.
The two police officers subconsciously wanted to rush inside, but Li Mengnan quickly grabbed them by their collars and threw them into the corner.
"what are you doing?"
The two police officers were both young men who had recently joined the team. When they were young and energetic, they would argue with Li Mengnan when they got up.
"What are you doing? Save your lives!"
Li Mengnan borrowed a strong police flashlight from a police officer and shined a light inside the dormitory door. Everyone present could not help but gasp, and the two police officers who were filled with anger were too dejected to say anything.
In this supposedly abandoned dormitory, five or six men and women, obviously dressed as students, gathered inexplicably. On the table around them were smoking candles and white paper with strange patterns drawn on them.
What makes people feel creepy is that the students in the room, including Aina who later broke in and the kidnapped girl, all maintained a fixed posture, like lifelike figures in a wax museum, responding to the sounds of the outside world.
He turned a deaf ear, as if his soul had been sucked away by some special force.
There is no doubt that if the two police officers had rushed in recklessly, they would have met the same fate now.
"Mengnan, this is..."
"Don't ask first. Contact the school immediately to evacuate the students. Don't leave anyone in this dormitory!"
The light spot of the flashlight shone in this seemingly ordinary bedroom, and Li Mengnan's face was surprisingly solemn.
He never expected that from the beginning, that Aina had no intention of leaving this dormitory alive.
Although she didn't understand what happened, just looking at the strange scene in the dormitory in front of her, Wu Ansu knew that this was beyond the scope of her intervention, and hurriedly mobilized people to issue orders one by one according to Li Mengnan's instructions.
"Mengnan, can you tell me now, what happened?" Wu Ansu asked Li Mengnan while his police officers were organizing students to evacuate from the dormitory building.
"Okay, I can tell you the truth, but I can't guarantee that you will understand."
Li Mengnan organized the language in his mind and said: "These students in the dormitory are members of a school called the Unscientific Club. The purpose of coming here is to study the legendary supernatural phenomena, but in fact the so-called supernatural phenomena are just
Because this 610 dormitory has a small phantom force field that can interfere with human brain waves, I don't know whether they got the answer they wanted. I only know that Aina took advantage of this phantom force field's natural influence on the human brain.
The interference ability drags everyone into a common dream..."
Wu Ansu looked confused, and he really didn't understand.
"In short, these students were kidnapped by Aina in a special way." Li Mengnan said concisely and concisely.
"Like we are in Ju Xiaoxing's conscious world? In other words, these people are now trapped in Aina's conscious world?" Wu Ansu suddenly seemed to understand something.
Li Mengnan shook his head repeatedly: "It is not that easy to drag others into the conscious world you created. This is a highly difficult illusion technique. Looking at all the Qi Sects, only our magicians can do it... Don't talk about him.
He doesn’t know the method at all, and even if he knew the method, he, a hypnotist with an intermediate level at most, would not be able to drag so many people into the conscious world at the same time in such a short period of time.”
"Then he is..." Wu Ansu became more and more confused as Li Mengnan talked.
"If I guess correctly, what Aina uses is - consciousness chain."
Although the world of consciousness can be infinite, human spiritual power is always limited.
Naturally, limited mental power cannot create an infinite world. In order to create a wider and more real world of consciousness, the method of consciousness chaining came into being.
To put it bluntly, consciousness chaining is not complicated at all. In fact, it is to connect the consciousnesses of multiple people together in a special way, with one of them as the leader and the others as assistants to jointly create the same consciousness world.
In other words, Aina knew very well that he did not have the ability to trap the people in the dormitory in his dreams, so he simply settled for the next best thing and created a conscious world similar to a local area network, trapping everyone within the range, even him.
I was trapped in it myself.
"What he did...does it have any practical significance?"
After listening to Li Mengnan's explanation, Wu Ansu was stunned by Aina's act that could be called crazy, and could not understand why the other party would do such an almost suicidal act.
“This is the difference between people like us and ordinary people’s understanding of ‘life’, ‘world’ and ‘reality’.”
That is to say, the person standing in front of him is Wu Ansu. If it were anyone else, Li Mengnan would not bother to explain, because people who have not personally experienced the world of consciousness will not understand what he is talking about.
"You mean, Aina knows that she cannot escape the punishment of the law, so she simply uses this method to continue her life?"
Before today, Wu Ansu would have definitely thought that Li Mengnan was just telling a joke. How could a person be willing to become a vegetative state that is unaware of the outside world and live forever in his own consciousness?
But after being brought into Ju Xiaoxing's brain by Li Mengnan, Wu Ansu saw with his own eyes magical scenes that could never be seen in textbooks. At the same time, he also learned for the first time that the world of human consciousness is not just a chaotic darkness, but in some kind of darkness.
In a sense, human consciousness is the second world in which we live.
If analyzed from this perspective, then Aina's move is reasonable.
"Then why did he bring so many people together? Is it just for the last moment of madness?" This is the only question Wu Ansu doesn't understand at the moment.
"This is not difficult to understand." Li Mengnan smiled, pointed at the motionless Aina in the room with the beam of flashlight and said: "Although his consciousness has sunk into the depths of his brain, his body cannot leave the real world, so he must
He needs to bring a few people on his back to ensure that no one will do anything to his body... Otherwise, if the body dies, the consciousness will not exist."
"You mean, if this Aina is hurt, other students in the dormitory will also be hurt?" Wu Ansu drew a terrible conclusion from Li Mengnan's words.
"Consciousness chain, as the name suggests, is to tie everyone's consciousness together, regardless of you and me, one loses and everyone loses... And I might as well tell you something more troublesome. Their current consciousness connection is through the illusion in the room
If a person leaves the range or dies physically due to the force field, everyone will die collectively."
Wu Ansu originally thought about whether he could remove these students one by one using tools similar to horse roping poles, but now it seems that it is absolutely impossible.
"Can we just sit here and watch those students being dragged to death by Aina?"
This is a completely dead end situation and Wu Ansu is at a loss what to do. Even if he can give these students nutrient solution to survive, it is not a long-term solution after all.
Li Mengnan took a long breath and said: "It seems that I am the only one who can go there personally..."
"You? You want to enter their conscious world?"
Wu Ansu now knows how dangerous the world of consciousness is. The personal consciousness of one Ju Xiaoxing almost killed them. The danger coefficient of the collective consciousness of these seven or eight people may increase geometrically.
"To be precise, it is not to enter their conscious world, but to be like them, connect to them through a chain of consciousness, and become one of them... Only in this way is Aina's outermost defense against the invasion of external consciousness
The system will not keep me out."
"Wouldn't that be more dangerous?"
"Apart from this, do you have any other better ideas?"
Wu Ansu couldn't help but fell silent. In fact, she knew better than anyone else that only Li Mengnan could solve this dead situation, but she also knew the danger contained in this seemingly simple sentence.
Deep in her heart, she even had an extremely terrifying thought - just let these people die, so that Li Mengnan would not have to risk entering the conscious world to save people.
"Meng Nan, after all, you are not from our police station. If you don't want to, you don't have to force yourself... Do you understand what I mean?"
When she said this, Wu Ansu kept her head down, feeling extremely ashamed. She never thought that one day she would make such a selfish decision.
But she didn't feel any regret. If she had to make a choice, she would rather trade her conscience for Li Mengnan's peace.
This was an almost explicit reminder. Li Mengnan never thought that Wu Ansu, who had always adhered to principles, would be willing to make a decision to betray his heart for him. Suddenly, there was a feeling in his heart that he had never felt before since they met.
"Thank you, Susu."
Li Mengnan opened his arms and hugged Wu Ansu tightly. Wu Ansu was caught off guard by the sudden revelation of his true feelings.
"Meng Nan, I... don't want anything to happen to you."
Li Mengnan held her shoulders and straightened up, spread his fingers through her silky black hair, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you still don't know my character? I'm just going to take a look, and if I can save it, I'll take it with me.
If I can’t be saved, I will definitely escape first…”
"Cunning." Wu Ansu smiled, but tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably for some unknown reason.
"Okay, I'm going... don't cry either. I'm not used to people seeing me off with tears, as if it's like a funeral." Li Mengnan waved his hands pretending to be relaxed, turned around and walked towards the open door of dormitory 610.
go.
"Mengnan!"
Hearing Wu Ansu's cry, Li Mengnan turned around subconsciously and looked at her in confusion.
"Although...even though you have never said those three words to me, I really don't want to wait any longer. I think it's better for me to say these three words first..."
Wu Ansu smiled and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, clasping his hands in front of his mouth.
"Li Mengnan, I - love - you!"
…
Oh no!
When Li Mengnan completely stepped into the door of the 610 dormitory, the sound of confession echoing in the corridor suddenly stopped like a twisted tape.
Looking back again, Wu Ansu, who was staring at him with tears in his eyes, had also disappeared.
Li Mengnan took a long breath.
He left in such a hurry on purpose. Wu Ansu's confession of love was too sudden, without any warning in advance. He was not mentally prepared at all, and he didn't know how to reply to Wu Ansu.
Although he knew what the best answer to such a show of love should be, before confirming his true feelings, he didn't want to say things that might not be responsible at all.
Even if the other party doesn't mind, it's just a lie to deceive oneself.
But Li Mengnan also had to admit that at the moment Wu Ansu cried for him, he was really attracted to this simple and persistent girl.
Perhaps as the "ageless fairy" Wu Xia said, he didn't know enough about Wu Ansu...
"Li Mengnan? Why are you here?"
Just as Li Mengnan was quietly sorting out his thoughts, an inexplicably surprised and familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
Li Mengnan turned to look outside the dormitory door. Sure enough, he was an acquaintance. It was Le Youyou's dormitory friend Chen Lingling who had had a barbecue with him not long ago.
There is also a passer-by, a boy I have never seen before.
Well, no matter how perfunctory the author is, it is impossible for the author to give a minor character with a few hundred words of scenes a simple and clear name like "Passenger A", but Li Mengnan really has no interest in knowing a character who has no characteristics in any aspect.
What is the boy's name?
The other party has no intention of taking the initiative to introduce himself, so let’s just call him “Zhang Goudan”.
"Li Mengnan...you are Li Mengnan, right?"
Seeing Li Mengnan just staring at her but showing no sign of speaking, Chen Lingling couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"Besides me, is there anyone else in our school who can be so handsome and outstanding?" Li Mengnan shook his head coolly and gave Chen Lingling an eight-and-a-half-eye smile.
