"Name."
"...Gu Shen."
"age."
"Seventeen years old, my birthday is one month and three days away... I need to remind everyone that I am still a minor. If you want to do something, you must think carefully... Some things are legally responsible. !”
"gender."
"???"
Under the spotlight, in the interrogation room, there are three people at a table.
Wei Shu was on the left, Nan Jin was on the right, and Gu Shen opposite was handcuffed to a chair by vines. He was twisting his body like a catfish, winking at the one on the right, and being ignored.
"Residence."
"...Room 703, Building 13, Beihuan Residential Building, Dadeng City, Qinghe District, Dongzhou...Is Brother checking the household registration?"
After asking for personal information as usual, Wei Shu nodded to the camera in the upper right corner.
The basic information is correct and the boy did not lie.
Mr. Shu in front of the screen was holding hot tea, smiling and snapping his fingers.
"Crack-"
In the interrogation room, the two vine handcuffs came loose and turned into dust.
Gu Shen breathed a sigh of relief and moved his wrists, finally feeling comfortable. He grinned at the camera and nodded to express his thanks... He could tell that the old man was not a bad person. The handcuffs had been holding him for a long time, but they were tight and not strangled.
The interrogation had officially begun, but the presiding officer Wei Shu was sitting in his chair and lost in thought... On the way to the interrogation room by helicopter, he read the boy's file no less than ten times. From his birth trajectory to his major deeds, this was actually He is a very ordinary boy.
But at the last minute, Deep Sea Link provided him with a video from a light rail train.
Under the influence of A-009's ability, the light source of the entire carriage was almost shattered. It was difficult to see the specific details, but it could be seen that... the young man named Gu Shen remained absolutely calm during the conversation with A-009.
This is rare, but nothing.
A-009 is a crazy "out-of-control person", and her characteristics have not been fully explored yet... But obviously, it is useless to be calm in front of her. If it were anyone else, there is a high probability that she would become... calm corpse.
In the video, this boy actually made A-009 "calm down"!
Wei Shu slowly leaned forward, his rather handsome face looking gloomy and pale under the light.
In interrogations, this is a way of applying pressure.
This boy was shackled because his "dangerousness" was still uncertain. A guy who could "tame" A-009 would attract too much attention.
According to past experience, people with ordinary files like this often possess many unknown secrets, are good at disguise, refuse to communicate, and will not cooperate even if they enter the interrogation room. Wei Shu believes that this is a difficult nut to crack. He is ready for a long battle.
He said word by word: "You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will become evidence in court and be recorded in the files."
The young man had a confused look on his face and was pretending well, but Wei Shu caught it with his sharp eyes and the young man swallowed his saliva.
Well, it's a sign of nervousness...has it worked?
Wei Shu: "What happened on the No. 13 light rail at 23:00 last night? We already have the video, as long as you are truthful..."
"Sir."
Gu Shen interrupted him and scratched his head: "I'm sorry... I'm so thirsty. Can I have some water?"
Wei Shu frowned.
"Sir, are you curious about what happened on the train?" Gu Shen drank the water, cleared his throat, and gesticulated with fear: "Let me tell you... this train is too scary, and I'm just a child. After getting in the car, I saw an eight-foot tall man, oh no, a burly lady..."
Wei Shu stared at Gu Shen dancing and vividly describing what happened after getting in the car.
Quite different from what I imagined.
This is not a stubborn person who is taciturn and refuses to communicate at all, but a social arrogant person who tells everything without revealing anything.
There are some minor problems with the video of this light rail trip.
Seemingly eroded by the power of A-009, Deep Sea only provided a small part of the scene as it was about to exit the tunnel. Based on the young man's emotional description, Wei Shu completed the entire story of the real incident bit by bit.
Half an hour later, the world finally became quiet.
Gu Shen slumped down on the chair, took another sip of water, and asked expectantly: "Sir, how was my speech just now?"
He concealed the story of his meeting with the girl in the white dress and the last silver ruler.
This kind of concealment is a kind of temptation and also a protection for oneself.
The other party didn't seem to notice anything was wrong... This disappointed Gu Shen. It seemed that the carriage monitoring had been destroyed.
"...That's a good point, please don't say it again."
Nan Jin responded coldly.
She glanced at the blank file in Wei Shu's hand, which was now filled with dense handwriting. This interrogation was undoubtedly a fruitful one, because all the expected questions were reasonably filled.
This boy discovered the characteristics of "A-009" during his first encounter, successfully dealt with it, and survived... Although this explanation sounds really incredible.
But the living person is right in front of you.
This boy named Gu Shen looked harmless and innocent, but Nan Jin knew very well that what happened on the train was something that could not be achieved by pure luck... This required very strong powers of observation.
"that……"
Gu Shen asked cautiously: "Sir, are you done with the transcript? Can I go home?"
Nan Jin hesitated.
Wei Shu rubbed his fingers in silence and looked at the transcript, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
"Squeak——"
At this moment, the door of the interrogation room was slowly pushed open.
"Teacher." Nan Jin stood up respectfully.
Wei Shu hurriedly ran over and sent the file over. The old man with the dragon-headed staff stood in front of the door. He just glanced at the file, then smiled and waved his hand to indicate to Wei Shu that he could just keep it.
"Young man, come here." He smiled and waved to Gu Shen: "I'll take you home."
Why does this sentence sound weird...
Gu Shen took two steps back and said with a shy smile: "The old gentleman must be very busy, right? In fact, I suddenly don't want to go home... It's good to sleep here. It's enough to have a heater, a beautiful girl and a quilt." "
…
…
15 minutes later.
A black commercial vehicle was driving slowly on a suburban road.
Really slow.
At this rate...it might take until dawn to reach our destination.
Gu Shen sat in the passenger seat and yawned widely.
"As you get older, you have to pay attention to safety when driving. If something happens in the middle of the night, it will be bad..." The old man in the driver's seat smiled and turned his head: "Are you waiting, young man?"
Gu Shen smiled bitterly: "How dare you..."
"You are not that timid." Mr. Shu wrote lightly: "I saw the surveillance video in the carriage. I deduced the 'answer' to the question by observing A-009's newspaper at close range. You are very observant and lucky. Not bad, if there had been physical contact, it would be a puddle of corpses now."
Hmm... It seems that the scene where he took over the "ruler" is lost.
Gu Shen tightened his clothes and smiled awkwardly: "Good luck, good luck."
This old man, who is respectfully called "Mr. Tree", has a face with ridges and grooves, but his eyes are clear and not muddy at all. When you are around him, you will not feel the slightest pressure, but it is like bathing in the spring breeze.
"Normal people will not be as calm as you when exposed to an 'extraordinary event', and they will not be as calm as you after surviving." Mr. Shu smiled and said: "We are alone this time, do you have any questions to ask? "
"...Of course." Gu Shen sighed softly, "But some questions are better not asked. I still understand this truth."
What a smart young man. The old man nodded approvingly.
However, some questions don’t have to be asked before they can be answered.
"Before A-009 lost control, she was a member of the Ancient Literature Society. This organization spread across five continents and studied forbidden science. She successfully mastered the extraordinary power of 'corrosion and dissolution' and successfully sent herself into the abyss." Mr. Shu crackled. Daduo: "Then...she became what she is now. For some research needs, we did not kill her directly, but kept imprisoning and transferring her."
"You were lucky enough to meet her and survive. Now someone has begun to pay attention to you... The world will change soon. Do you want to consider hugging someone... like me?"
After saying this, Mr. Shu looked at the young man with a smile.
"...Ah, I didn't hear what you just said."
Gu Shen acted poorly and pretended to be confused. He pointed out the car window and said, "There was a dog barking just now, and it was still lame."
The car was driving very slowly, and there was really a lame dog on the roadside. It seemed that the two were racing, and the speed was about the same.
A black line appeared on the old man's forehead.
Kick the accelerator.
The roaring sound shook the dark night——
The strong push on his back firmly pinned Gu Shen to the seat. The old man driving the car had an expressionless face and pressed the accelerator to the bottom. The slightly bulky business car moved nimbly, speeding on the empty night road in the suburbs.
ten minutes later.
"arrive."
The old man parked the car, and Gu Shen rushed out of the door. His face was ashen, he leaned against the wall and retched... This old guy was so vindictive that the speed of his car just reached 180 yards!
While Gu Shen was vomiting, the old man observed the mottled and old Tongzi Tower in front of him, his eyes narrowed, and he said with a teasing smile: "Live here? You are so poor, you really don't want to take advantage of me?"
"Pooh."
Gu Shen stared angrily at the old man's rubbing of his fingers: "You can't be moved by poverty and humbleness, and you can't bend by force. Don't try to bribe me with money... I have a lot of backbone."
"Oh...is that so?" Mr. Shu laughed heartily: "I admire you."
"You mighty and unyielding young man, this is my number." The old man slowly rolled up the car window, and at the end handed out a note, "If you change your mind, call anytime."
Gu Shen glanced at the note and wrote down the numbers.
The note flashed, made a "chi" sound, spontaneously ignited without fire, and slowly turned into ashes. The old man didn't mess around at all, leaving behind the flying ashes of the paper, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
