Bohemia couldn't hold it back and exclaimed in a low voice. "This world - it's so disgusting, and it's so priceless? Ah, of course, I'm not questioning you, sir..."
"It's normal for a miscellaneous fish like you not to know."
The puppeteer sat far away, his face and figure shrouded in shadow. Only when he turned his head slightly, the bright pink in the corners of his eyes dimmed and then dimmed.
"For the evolvers who understand the world, Edible Truth is a resting place where people can relive their old dreams." He only said this sentence, and suddenly stopped talking, but from Doctor Cat to Mia the Bastard Fish,
No one dared to speak out to urge him.
Behind them, Lin Sanjiu slowly stood up from the ground, her body still trembling with waves of dizziness.
"This world..." she asked hoarsely, "what is going on?"
The puppeteer was silent for a while. After a few seconds, half of his face trembled, as if from the deepest part of the night, a half-sneer gradually emerged - when everyone present could not help but shudder, just listening to him
The voice said softly: "Since you all want to know so much, you might as well go and see with your own eyes."
Alarm bells rang in Bohemia's mind, but before she could muster up the courage to say "Actually, I'm not very interested", the figure not far away suddenly stood up silently - he just got up and stood up.
The shadow of the "chair" immediately split to the left and right, splitting into two independent black shadows, and then stood up.
"Follow me."
...If you don’t want to become a puppet being used as a chair, you’d better just follow it obediently.
Although everyone was of different species, their thoughts were exactly the same. Lin Sanjiu swayed and seemed to still be a little unsteady on her feet. Bohemia reluctantly stretched out her hand to support her, thought for a while, and asked in a low voice:
"Let me ask you, what happened when you were alone with the puppet master? That piece of saliva towel..."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the mosaic next to him saw the opportunity, twisted around, and rushed out into the night far away in the blink of an eye. Its movements were silent and so fast that it was difficult to catch. Wait a few seconds
By the time people reacted, it had already run out of sight, leaving only one sentence echoing in their minds: "Now that the game is over, I won't keep you company. Now we don't owe each other anything. Goodbye."
Bar!"
"I forgot to trap it with my consciousness!" Bohemia woke up and gritted her back teeth and said, "This guy is really good!"
After leaving the game, she never thought of continuing to "detain" Descartes; the latter also remained motionless, as if he had forgotten about it - Bohemia's consciousness is extremely fast, so it
He waited until she was distracted before escaping.
"Let it go, it's just a worry if you keep it." Lin Sanjiu took a breath, "Don't hold my arm so hard..."
"But……"
Bohemia looked blankly in the direction where Descartes was fleeing, but ultimately said nothing.
By the time this group of injured, disabled and one cat finally stopped, they had already gone deep into the city. It was the darkest night and just before dawn, almost all the buildings on the roadside were dark.
, forming a forest of shadows of varying heights under the night. There were only street lamp posts arranged one after another at will, casting clusters of irregular gray light on their path.
"...Does this kind of street lamp lead to car accidents every day?" Doctor Cat asked in a low voice full of suspicion.
The street lamps are crooked. Sometimes there are several lamp posts clustered together, and sometimes you can't see any lamp posts even after walking for ten minutes. The people who built the street lamps may be as drunk as the people who built the buildings. Even in the middle of the road,
On the steps beside the road and in the entrance of the sewer, there are street lamp posts of uneven thickness drilling out.
Not far away, at the edge of a dim white streetlight, was where the puppeteer stopped. The tall and thin figure eroded the light, forming a deep blackness.
"Sir, sir," Bohemia glanced at Lin Sanjiu and saw that she was still lost and distraught, so she had no choice but to ask: "We are here... because, because..."
"Don't you want to know the truth about this world?" The puppet master's cool voice seemed to contain a hint of sarcasm, "Then come and meet the master of this world."
"Yes, does it mean that truth... Where is it?" Such a face-to-face conversation made Bohemia's voice become weaker and weaker due to guilt and fear, and she glanced at Doctor Cat as if asking for help - what a pity.
The height difference was too big, and the tacit understanding was not good. Her eyes only focused on a round head and two pointed ears.
"Isn't this everywhere?" The puppet master smiled mockingly, turned his head slightly, looked at Lin Sanjiu and said: "The meaning of life that you have been thinking about is all here, why, you can't give it to your dear street lamp
A bow?"
Bohemia and Doctor Cat made a choking sound together.
"What?" She even forgot who the person opposite was, "Road, street light? Why a street light?"
Lin Sanjiu stood blankly in the middle of the road, his eyes roving back and forth between the puppet master and the street lamp. The gray street lamp was thick at the bottom and thin at the top, stretched into the air, and then it seemed that he suddenly remembered that he still wanted to illuminate
As if, a circle of dim light sparsely emerged from the semicircular "head".
Even though he knew clearly what he had missed, even though the loss was still throbbing in the hollow of his chest, when Lin Sanjiu saw the street light, he was still shocked and speechless by the sense of absurdity that hit him.
.
"I..." She stared at the street lamp, and after a few seconds, she stared blankly at the buildings of different shapes on the roadside. "Is this the goal I found in life...? I clearly remember that it was very
Important, very meaningful things..."
"Take care of the truth, safeguard the truth, and live in harmony with the truth...why is it not important?" A half-sneer appeared on the puppet master's bloodless white face. "You can't recognize yours without the shit in your eyes."
Does life have meaning?"
Bohemia struggled and hesitated for a long time, but finally lost to curiosity, and asked Lin Sanjiu in a low voice: "I, I still don't quite understand..."
The person who answered her was the puppet master.
"Every street lamp and every building you see is not built by man. They are living things growing out of the ground, that's why they look so strange. They have thinking, like to claim to be the truth, and are called truth.
They are so blind that they think they are servants of the truth. These so-called truths have another name," he paused, his voice like a cold wind hitting his skin in winter: "...bacteria
