"That's not the case. I can still give you a piece of information that is barely a reminder - that is, everything I said to you before is related to this matter, and it is closely related." Sister Lan carefully said
, said very slowly, as if he was afraid that any word would trigger the time bomb in his brain again.
"Everything you said before...are you referring to Guixu's study of prions that invade the brain?" Zhang Keqi asked, "What does this have to do with controlling time and resetting the world?"
"Just keep thinking in this direction. I can't say any more. Even if I say one more word in this regard, I will be cleared immediately, and you will also be in danger." Sister Lan shook her head and said:
"If you really can't figure it out, you can think about a question - what is the essence of time? What is the definition of time given by people? If you think about this clearly, almost all the abnormal phenomena you see can be explained.
Already."
"Okay..." Zhang Ke nodded slightly. He understood that Sister Lan could risk being silenced and still pass on so many memories to him under the dual threats of prion bombs and hypnotic instructions that could detonate in the brain at any time.
Information is no longer easy to come by.
You can only walk the next road on your own - at least, now you are no longer in the state of ignorance. I believe that the road to the truth will be getting closer and closer.
"I have one last question." Zhang Ke hesitated before saying, "It's a somewhat offensive question."
"Say." Sister Lan's eyes changed slightly, as if she had guessed something.
"What exactly is your position? I think you are definitely not a tool or a simple accomplice of the Guixu organization. After all, you revealed so much information to me without telling them. I even saw you in Shanghai Flower Bar - but
, you don’t look like a complete rebel, but you stay outside the chess game and secretly do some tricks.”
Zhang Ke considered his words and said cautiously: "What is the purpose you want to achieve? Is it simply because your own conscience cannot approve and accept Guixu's behavior, so you are secretly causing trouble for them?"
"My position? Haha, it's really a sharp question." Sister Lan smiled coldly, but she didn't seem to be angry. "It is indeed as you said, I have no intention of betraying the organization directly.
What's more, I don't have the right to make such a choice, because the fate of defectors is death."
"Then why don't you cooperate with Shanghai Flower Bar? In my memory, I saw you appearing there, but you didn't talk to anyone, and Ritsuko never mentioned you. Does this mean that you also keep a distance from them?
"Zhang Ke asked, "If you really want to resist Guixu, Haihuahua is the biggest force you can rely on."
"Flower of the Sea...Actually, before meeting you, I just met their leader." Sister Lan said, recalling the events of walking through the tunnel before.
"Chief? Is it Lao Ji? Have you reached any agreement?" Zhang Ke asked hurriedly.
"No, not at all - all Haihuahua wants from me is some internal information about Guixu. As for technical support, there are already better candidates than me who are secretly supporting them.
." Sister Lan said, "However, my brain does not allow me to reveal too important information, so my value to BigG is very limited."
"But even so, as an existing member of Guixu, you should still be very important to them, right?"
"Do you want me to join Shanghai Flower?" Sister Lan took a deep look at Zhang Ke, her eyes a little complicated, and after a moment she said meaningfully, "Zhang Ke, let me give you another piece of advice. As for whether you believe it or not.
It’s up to you.”
"you say."
"Shanghai Flower Bar is indeed the most powerful force against Guixu, but that place may not be friendly to you."
"I understand, after all I killed Xu Xiaoli, it is normal for them to be hostile to me." Zhang Ke replied calmly.
"No, it's not just that, you don't understand." Sister Lan suddenly put her hand on the other person's head and stroked it gently. The action was like an older sister's love and protection for her younger brother, "Because you are
...The most special thing is the same for both Guixu and Shanghai Flower."
"Special? Do you mean the structure of the brain?" Zhang Ke asked puzzledly, "I know that those patients admitted to Bianhua Sanatorium are all born with structural lesions in the brain, and this is how they have escaped time.
Cyclic memory reset... But why am I the most special? Is it because I am a perfect rememberer?"
"People with perfect memories are just symptoms. Although you are rare, you are by no means the only one. What's special about you is that you are the first case..." Sister Lan suddenly felt another sharp pain like being torn apart in her brain.
, immediately stopped talking, "No, as expected, up to this point is also the taboo part. Before, BigG was talking and I was responding, so it wasn't triggered, but the reverse is different."
"...The first case?" Although Zhang Ke didn't know what Sister Lan couldn't say, he could probably guess the direction and asked, "This means that my brain is compared to other retroactive...
Come on, it’s worth more research, right?”
"Yes, if you fall into the hands of Haihuahua, their people will not hesitate to cut open your head and dissect your brain tissue to find the source and secret of everything." Sister Lan said.
"This... it's really hard for me to believe that when I was lying in the hospital, Ritsuko said that it was also Haihua's property. At that time, I couldn't even move. They obviously had many opportunities to dissect me, but they didn't do it.
." Zhang Ke shook his head, but said with a somewhat uncertain tone.
"That's because the right time hasn't come yet, and the hospital is not a confidential enough place. If they perform an autopsy on you, it will immediately lead to more serious consequences." Sister Lan said seriously: "But if you
If you fall into a trap, return there, and obey their instructions, what happens next will be out of your control."
"..." Zhang Ke fell silent. Faced with Sister Lan's warning, he had no reason to question it and was unwilling to question it, but he also didn't want to suspect that Ritsuko would be harmful to him.
"As for my position you asked about before - I don't have too much loyalty to Guixu, nor do I have a rebellious heart that must overthrow it. I do think there needs to be such a person hiding in the shadows, excluding everything
An institution that can devote itself to scientific research and constantly explore cutting-edge truths despite obstacles such as money, regulations, ethics and even human nature."
