Chapter 184: The Devil's Chess Game and Pieces Part 1
"Why, the eldest sister obviously loves us so much, and everyone in "Wutong" is obviously so happy, why do you want to do such a thing..."
"I don't know. It would be great if Brother Xu Feng was here. If he was here, I wouldn't have to think about such complicated and difficult things."
"Sometimes, it's really good to be a fool."
——The dazzling sunlight shone into the carriage, and the captives heard the sound of the door opening.
"I didn't expect you to come."
"Jin Ming" wore a special collar from "Shadow Kill" around his neck and watched as the man wearing a mask walked into the detention compartment.
The collar locked his powers, while the wrist guards on his hands and feet locked his body.
"I heard that you chose to cooperate with the second lady?"
"Dagger" leaned against the inner wall of the carriage, leaned up and sat opposite "Jin Ming", looking up and down at the tired prisoner.
"Jin Ming" chuckled and turned his head to the side.
"What? Don't you believe me? Now everyone in "Shadow" knows about your relationship with the second lady, why are you trying to hide it in front of me?"
"Rumors are terrible... I didn't expect that I had only been out of the mountain for a few months, and I had already made up all these gossips."
"Dagger" frowned, his arms resting naturally on his thighs, and he sat in a posture similar to that of someone paralyzed on a sofa.
Opposite him, "Jin Ming", whose hands and feet were bound, was leaning sideways, pressing his shoulders against the inner wall of the carriage, with a quaint look on his face.
"Okay, since you want to talk to me about something, can you drop these indifferent pretense first?"
"Hmph, okay, I'll just try to impress the second lady. Yes, I am her sweetheart!"
(Pfft!)
A cute sound of choking came from the earphones. "Dagger" blinked his eyes and stretched out his hand to scratch his temples.
"So, why did Mr. Dagger, the second young lady's boyfriend, come to see me this time? Didn't I tell the second young lady everything that should be asked and answered?"
"I'm just curious about the plan mentioned by the eldest lady. Can you tell me in detail?"
"Dagger" is thinking about some ideas, and for this he needs to get as much relevant information as possible.
"Didn't the second lady tell you? The eldest lady, in order to completely wipe out the devil Damon through "Shadow Kill", she voluntarily became a rebel known to all. In order to absorb these deeply hidden rebellions like a black hole
Those who want to fight for power will be wiped out by fighting for power."
"I see. No wonder I cried all night last night, which kept me awake all night."
(Ahem!!)
"Here, you are really elegant. Is this the so-called self-confidence of a strong person?"
"Jin Ming" smiled bitterly and shook his head. He really didn't expect that the second young lady's method of venting would be...
"Last night's cries were heard by the companions at the waterfall. Didn't you hear them??"
"Ah? I really didn't hear it..."
"You don't look like an undercover agent planted here at all."
"..."
The air froze, "Jin Ming" shook his head as if he hadn't heard anything, rubbed his left ankle with his right foot a few times, and the bitter smile on his face became even worse:
"I should have told the second lady that if there really was a mole in our "Wutong", this civil war would have been impossible to fight from the beginning!"
"Jin Ming's" tone gradually became heavier, and the wry smile on his face became a bit sullen. He still shook his head, like an old man who was used to being in the same position.
"It's you, why do you know my investigation route? When it comes to arranging informants, your newly born "Xie Zhi" has more say, right?! Just like the eldest lady and the second lady, you will not be prepared if you are not ready.
Will take action."
"
Although I am very grateful to you for saving the second lady and not letting Damon's evil plan succeed, but looking back now, you "Xie Zhi" should be the most terrifying one, right? Such extraordinary combat power without any intelligence, as if it was born out of thin air.
Generally speaking, this is like hiding gold in the slums of Eagle Country, it is a fantasy."
(Oh, the slums of Eagle Country, this metaphor...)
"I thought that "Lin Shuwen" was already outrageous, but it turns out that you are just like an advanced version of him. No wonder the second lady doesn't like him. Which woman with such a crush would fall in love with another man? You
Just take off the mask and let me see how handsome he is. He’s been beaten up in all directions anyway, so he still looks like this!”
"You're changing the subject."
"Ha! Okay, okay, just think of me as changing the subject. Then let me ask you, if I was an undercover agent, what would I be doing? Damon is no longer invincible. He can be scared away by your look. What should I do?
Do you want to follow him?! The eldest lady is so kind to us... Yes, she treats us like our closest relatives, I have to be crazy to want to betray her!"
"There is no conflict between being an undercover agent and betraying the eldest lady. Maybe the condition offered by Damon is to let the eldest lady go?"
"How is it possible? Even if he really made such a condition, would anyone believe him? It's not like he doesn't know the consequences of negotiating terms with the devil."
"Jin Ming's" eyes were lonely, as if he was reminiscing, and seemed to feel pity for someone. Such an expression did not seem to be fake.
"So, you are a smart person?"
"Clever or not, it doesn't matter if you can save your life."
Another pun, whose life is being saved?
"Dagger" sat up straight, crossed his arms over his chest, and crossed his legs.
"Then let's talk about something else, your past."
"Isn't my past all in the archives? Or do you want to learn a specific craft?"
Having said this, "Jin Ming" reached into his arms, took out a "Garden" identity tag, and threw it to "Dagger".
"This belongs to the person who put the shackles on me. It's been a whole night and I haven't noticed anything missing. If this brand can open the lock, wouldn't I just run away casually?"
"Jin Ming" had a slightly bitter pride on his face. This was his best craftsmanship and also his most unspeakable craftsmanship.
"That's not necessarily true."
"Um?"
"Dagger" flipped through the nameplate and pointed it at the window on the carriage door. The noon sun illuminated the nameplate transparently. The color and reflection of the hair in the photo changed abnormally under the sunlight.
The hidden secrets were revealed.
He placed the name tag and handed it back to "Jin Ming", looking at his shocked expression.
"Guess what that chip does?"
"Locator and recording device?"
(Teacher Xi Nian, the analysis of the technique can start from the direction of collection. It is very likely that its purpose is not transmission.)
"Jin Ming", who is still single, sadly lost to the sinister Xian Chong.
"Maybe, but I guess it's not that simple."
"Dagger" stretched out his hand and pointed at his pupil, and "Jin Ming" discovered that a faint symbol composed of several quadrilaterals had appeared in his pupil at some point.
A black mist flashed across his eyes, and the symbol was erased by him. While "Dagger" wiped away the tears caused by the stimulation, he explained to "Jin Ming":
"I have a very powerful mysterious teacher. According to my speculation, this technique is a recording technique. He will backup and store the light signals you see. It can be kept for a month, as long as it is not deleted like me.
Erase, within a month, even if you
Even if you die, we can still know what you saw."
"Gu...it's really scary..."
"Jin Ming" did not ask "Dagger" to unlock the spell for him. In fact, this spell will become invalid after being carved. In other words, the current spell does not actually exist in the eyes of "Jin Ming".
If he had just tried to let the "dagger" be unlocked for him, Ye Lanxin would have asked Xinlian to prepare a hint.
Sometimes accepting fate is the right choice.
"Why don't you let me untie it for you?"
"Would you make additional demands when you are at the mercy of others? No matter if he agrees or not, once you ask, it will be like replacing the white silk around your neck with steel wire. It's too much work."
"I thought you would say that if you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows."
"..."
"Jin Ming's" forced smile froze unconsciously, then he shook his head and looked at "Dagger".
"It is a very happy thing to be alive. Even if you can only survive every day eating scraps, work hard, and get beaten, you can't even get a meal. Oh, if you just say that you have enough to eat, don't be surprised, because
At that time, I was exhausted just thinking about eating."
"I know those days. I have slept under the bridge for some reasons. I didn't dare to turn over because the quilt would make me cold if I turned over. I ate the steamed buns bit by bit and looked for water in the streets and alleys. If
If it weren't for the help of a kind uncle, I might not have been able to bear it on the first day, but he took my coat away on the second day, haha."
"Dagger" went to experience the life of a homeless man for some time to collect information. In seven days, he lost almost fifteen kilograms. However, when he came back, he overeated and gained twenty kilograms more than before.
"My uncle is only a little bit similar to you, in terms of following things..."
"Jin Ming" smiled and looked at "Dagger" with his eyebrows raised and lowered.
"So, is this the reason why you are afraid of death? Are you reluctant to live a good life?"
"Yes, to a large extent. The rest should be regarded as repaying the favor. Ten years ago, Sister Lan took me in, and three years ago, someone told me that if I live a good life, there are possibilities.
"
"who's that person?"
"I can't remember clearly. He was the one who saved my life for the first time. I was covered in blood at that time. If he hadn't given me emergency treatment, I wouldn't have been able to wait for the police to come."
"It's the same experience as a certain cow-dung student."
"ah?"
"Nothing, I just remembered an anime character."
"You really look like that "Lin Shuwen". "Yan" often mentions that "Lin Shuwen" when chatting. He always thinks of that "Lin Shuwen" from time to time, and then comes up with a few lines from anime or special photography, which makes her confused.
I spend my free time binge-watching anime, and I don’t even watch variety shows.”
"The more similar a person is, the harder it is to deal with him. If there is a chance, I will kill him. After all, he is a man~"
"Hehehe..."
While talking and laughing, "Dagger" had already opened the carriage door. He said goodbye to "Jin Ming", got up and walked out of the carriage.
On the other side of him, Yu Wenmo, who had completed the interrogation of "Mercy", was dressed in a priest's uniform and walked out of another escort carriage.
The two looked at each other and closed the carriage door at the same time.
(Lan Xin.)
(Um.)
(It seems we need to find out who saved "Jin Ming" thirteen years ago.)
(You noticed it too.)
(Just a small guess.)
Forgetfulness may be a music box with beautiful things locked, or it may be a music box with Pandora's box still being closed...
