Li Liang raised his chin at Shuiye.
Mizuno nodded, turned around and smiled: "Mr. Allen, dinner is ready..."
"Ah, ah, okay," Allen pulled up Kujo Yui, "Hey, tell me, how many brothers do you have..."
Kujo Yui struggled to look back at Li Liang, and reluctantly walked out, muttering: "Onii-chan, it's better for you. To tell you the truth, I actually have a seriously ill mother..."
Watching the three people leave, Cain said enthusiastically: "It's 'banana peel' again, right?"
"Why are you so excited?" Li Liang couldn't laugh or cry, "Don't you think we will be too busy in the future?"
"Just say it or not."
"It's possible, but we were misled anyway."
"What's the meaning?"
"At first we discovered that someone was hoarding weapons, and we suspected that it was done by gangs. They may have transferred the weapons out of Zhongjing through SoftBank's cargo ship, but the investigation has been fruitless. Later, K learned the secret of the Natural Sect from Tao Chong. channel, and chased to Denali, but the contact person Buhe died. We discovered that the Natural Sect was related to Titan, and also found that Buhe’s secret warehouse contained supplies from the Alliance of Human Destiny. Then the clue was broken, and China was very timely. gave another clue, the 'Subversion Plan', we followed this clue to the Fuji, and finally found...'The Lord of the Void'."
"ah."
"I now feel that the 'Cardinal' line has nothing to do with the Natural Sect," Li Liang shook his head. "Whether the Cardinal is our future self or not, leaving this clue is just to lead us here."
Cain smiled and said: "No matter how I hear it, I feel that this is done by us in the future."
"The suspected 'banana peel' incidents include... well, digging me out of the trash, tampering with the psychic's mission information, Prometheus, going underwater twice in Dongjiang Port, what you encountered on the moon, Not long ago we were at the Activision headquarters in Rocky Mountain, etc. If it is true that we returned from the future to the present, then we have directly intervened in the development of things every time. What is the purpose this time?"
"For you to discover the Lord of the Void?" Cain thought for a moment, "Didn't you suspect that the Zerus Zerg broke through the defense line before, but that Harlan Potter led the wolf into the house..."
"Now we only know that those five people have seen the 'Cardinal' and can summon the Lord of the Void. We don't know anything else. Besides, what can we do if we find out? I am not the only one who can think of such a thing as luring a wolf into the house... and I can’t learn ethereal magic..."
Cain gestured to the next door with his thumb: "To give us that thing?"
"Eye of the Void?" Li Liang frowned, "If it were you, would you use such a risky method? What if those five people disobey after so many years?"
"No, we know it will be successful because we have experienced it."
The two stared at each other.
For a moment, Li Liang shook his head: "This is a question of which came first, the chicken or the egg."
Cain raised his eyebrows: "The chicken comes first."
“So where did the first chicken come from?”
"boy."
"..."
Li Liang looked helpless: "Where did you learn this ancient joke?"
"Haha..." Cain held his waist and giggled: "Isn't it funny..."
"thank you."
Cain raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Okay, seriously, what's next?"
"First send the 'Eye of the Void' to the temple to see if No. 0 can research anything. We will inform 'Ao' to check if there is anything weird about the previous life trajectories of these five people. You ask Zhang Dongxiu to cooperate. Others... ...We still have to continue to search for those weapons..."
"The goods are mixed with the supplies of the Alliance of Humanity's Destiny. It's very troublesome to check," Cain said casually. "During this period, the Alliance of Humanity's Destiny has sent out too many supplies."
"It's troublesome to investigate. K will probably arrive tonight. Maybe there will be any new clues."
"Well, should we let that girl continue to approach Via?"
"Via is a key figure, the deputy secretary-general of the Human Destiny Alliance, a priest of the Natural Sect... let's wait for a while," Li Liang thought for a moment, "wait until I talk to Titan and find out their strength."
"Oh, how are you studying?"
Li Liang suddenly felt as if school was about to start but found that he hadn't done his homework yet. He waved his hand and said, "It's almost time."
"Come on, Lord Demigod," Cain raised his fist and "pumped up" seriously.
"You...you can retreat."
Li Liang took a deep breath, walked to the sofa and took out "Plenty: The Mysterious Language System" from his bag. He had just turned two pages when Cain came over and said ungratefully: "Are you tired? Let's go downstairs for a walk?"
"I just watched it for a minute..."
"Let's go," Cain grabbed the book and threw it away, holding his arm, "You haven't visited the Fuji yet..."
"Isn't it just this afternoon..."
"now it is night!"
"K..."
"K hasn't arrived yet."
The moment he opened the door, Cain returned to his seriousness and shook his finger at the Spade member at the door: "Tell Sonoya, let's go out."
"Yes," the dark crowd gave way to the passage.
Half an hour later.
The two took the Samsung Corporation's crane train to a container building in the middle section of the Fuji, and then took the elevator down to the first floor.
The moment he stepped out of the elevator, Li Liang felt deeply what a huge crowd meant.
In other cities, there are traffic jams during the evening rush hour, but the Fuji Line is jammed with people.
The air was stuffy and hot, and the narrow aisles between the container buildings were blocked like cans. The crowd could only squirm slowly. Even so, there was still a steady stream of people climbing up from the slums below, like ants pouring out of the ant nest before it rains.
There are no lighting equipment such as street lamps on the ground. The holographic signs and large and small screens outside the containers cast colorful light and shadow, flickering in and out, and the place is crowded and bustling.
"I like this place very much," Cain shouted in Li Liang's ear.
Li Liang wondered: "Why?" His voice was drowned in the sudden sound of music from above.
"Huh?" Cain tilted his head.
"I said, why!"
"Because there are so many people!" Cain laughed.
Li Liang shook his head.
It is indeed much more lively than Zhongjing. On ordinary days, it is as overcrowded as the XC area on the final day of the drama. The main reason is that the place is too small.
He stepped on the ground, so many people came up, plus the weight of the container building, the floor above the pipe equipment was able to withstand it. It seemed that Xi'an's transformation of the Fuji went deeper than it seemed.
After walking more than ten steps into the crowd, he felt someone approaching quickly from behind. When he turned around, Cain's gun was already pressed against the man's head.
It was a half-grown child, with a gun pressed between his eyebrows, but he was grinning.
"Go away," Cain mouthed, his eyes searching the crowd for a moment, and then he raised his middle finger in a certain direction.
Li Liang looked in that direction and saw three people squatting vaguely on a protruding container in the distance.
He was accustomed to this scene. Taking advantage of sheep to break doors and pick locks has always been the "business scope" of gangs. When pickpockets are working, they are surrounded by superiors who lead the team.
He narrowed his eyes. As soon as the three people stood up, they fell neatly into the crowd, causing a commotion.
"Ha," Cain gave a satisfied thumbs up and inserted the gun back into the holster strapped to his thigh.
The passers-by around him were not surprised by this kind of thing, but many people glanced at Cain's face, and the turnaround rate was quite high.
After that, he encountered no more blind thieves. Li Liang followed the crowd and looked up at the "forest" composed of containers. Many high-altitude containers were changed into transparent curtain walls. There were restaurants, bars, and casinos, and some containers lay across the street. Above the head, two buildings are connected, with a holographic bunny girl twisting her waist, and a container building with a whole screen on the facade, playing an advertisement for Sapporo Beer. At the end, a line of advertising slogans is projected in mid-air: "Maruく" Nana, Hoshi Nana".
Tsk~~~
The sound of bubbling beer echoed around him, and coupled with the dull air, Li Liang felt his throat burning.
Cain fanned his face with his hands, stood up on his toes, looked around, and said excitedly for a moment: "Over there."
The two of them walked through the crowd and came to a small square. There were many square platforms with a height of one person set up on the square. There were stalls on each platform, mostly fruit sellers. They were all materials distributed by the joint meeting, with messages of hope printed on them. I don’t even bother to open the Anshi packaging.
There was a vending machine in the corner of the square. Cain approached and roughly pulled away the people in front of him. He walked all the way to the vending machine, raised his bracelet and shook it on the biometric payment machine, then took the machine and spit it out. With two bottles of beer, he returned the same way in a dignified manner.
Next to the vending machine is a wide barbed wire staircase leading to the fourth floor of a container shopping mall. The stairs are full of people.
The two of them climbed until they were close to the entrance of the mall before finding their spot.
After Cain sat down, he popped the bottle cap with his thumb, took a sip of wine, then propped his elbows on his knees and looked at the crowd below.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
"Do you like crowded places?" Li Liang took a sip of cold beer and exhaled the smell of alcohol. Sapporo is a specialty of Fuji and is expensive. It is indeed better than Asahi and Kirin.
"Um."
"You have so many enemies, aren't you afraid of being shot in the face?"
"There used to be a gang leader in Zhongjing who would bring dozens of subordinates with him every time he went out. But he died later."
"How did you die?"
"I drank too much and took a shower, and drowned in the bathtub. It only took a few seconds." Cain shrugged. "Life and death are determined by fate and wealth. We can die no matter what. Why do we join a gang if we are afraid of death? Maybe we drank This bottle of wine was poisoned."
Li Liang took a sip of wine and said, "I'll tell you next time."
Phew~
Cain laughed out loud, propped up his cheek and asked, "Hey, Li Liang, how much money do you have in your account?"
Li Liang was stunned for a moment, raised his wrist, woke up the bracelet, and clicked on the small light screen that popped up. The account balance column showed: 0.
"Tsk, tsk," Cain looked sympathetic.
"Wait a minute," Li Liang pointed to the small plus sign next to 0, "Look..." He clicked on it.
The next second, the account balance became 1,000,000.
"Depend on!"
"These are all external things..." Li Liang said and clicked the plus sign four more times.
Cain watched as the number jumped to 5,000,000.
"What are you looking at?" Li Liang calmly closed the bracelet, "I just like the number five million."
"Depend on!"
"I used to think it was too difficult to make money in this era, and it was completely different from the future I imagined..." Li Liang rubbed his wine bottle and looked at the crowded square under the stairs. People who climbed up from the slums were sweating but lingered. , like a drowning person struggling to surface and breathing greedily.
"Well," Cain shook his head mockingly, "No one would have thought that it was all fake. It's just a few numbers."
At this time, the surroundings suddenly lit up, and the people sitting on the stairs turned their heads.
Li Liang also looked back. It turned out that a holographic image several meters high was projected in front of the shopping mall behind him. It was a middle-aged woman wearing a black gauze skirt. She walked a few steps and sang a soothing Japanese song. , the singing voice is calm and quiet, and the trembling voice reveals a touch of compassion.
Gradually, many Japanese people in the square began to sing along.
Li Liang couldn't understand Japanese, but he felt that the style of this song was a bit like Misora Hibari's "The Stream".
He suddenly saw a five or six-year-old child not far away, squatting on the steps with his face in his hands, looking up at the holographic image. His body was dirty, but his eyes were exceptionally bright, reflecting light and shadow.
Noticing his gaze, the little boy timidly retreated into his mother's arms.
He smiled, and the little boy blinked and smiled too.
