Rebel Demon King

Chapter 357 Unexpected encounter

(two-in-one update)

The fate of cicadas is to sing for one summer, and the fate of ants is to serve the species. Everything in the world cannot escape their respective beliefs and missions. Even if human beings possess supreme wisdom, they cannot escape their own fate. ——Yan Funing
--------------

In the midsummer of Star City, the sky is full of gold and stone, the vast sky is cloudless, blue and bright, the dazzling sun and the streamer on the glass curtain wall complement each other, the scorching fireball quietly exudes suffocating power, and the pedestrians on the road are wrinkled. Brows, gait vain.

Yan Funing opened the car door, and the boiling air rushed in. He was used to the cool summer in London, and the furnace-like weather in Star City made him feel physically and mentally uncomfortable. Yan Funing turned around and said goodbye to Li Jiting and the seniors in the car. Sorry, I jumped out of the commercial vehicle.

Yu Rong looked at Yan Funing, who was still meticulously dressed in formal attire in the [-]-degree hot weather, tightened the car door, and then the commercial vehicle slowly slid forward. He looked at Yan Funing's back through the glass with a dark sunscreen film, hugged the chair and said : "Boss, this kid is nothing special? But why do I feel that you value this kid? I think you were not so kind to me when I first entered the Qianlong team as an intern, let alone repeatedly persuaded me to stay. Now you It’s just a matter of promising Yan Funing to be the successor, which is too unfair, you know, we are also members of the Mensa Club, and members of the Huaxia Honker League, but we are not only a star and a half better than a graduate student from Imperial College.”

Li Jiting glanced back at Yu Rong's somewhat greasy face, rolled his eyes and said: "Now is the age of looking at faces, the gay men in our Qianlong team, except for me who is handsome, look at each of you. I don’t care about my appearance, I don’t pay attention to my image. How can I improve the average appearance of our Qianlong group if I don’t bring in a handsome guy?”

Li Jiting's complaints were immediately exchanged for a burst of protest, and everyone sitting in the carriage despised Li Jiting's behavior of judging people by their appearance.

Yu Rong, a slightly chubby man, pushed his glasses and said: "Boss, I'm not very good, but my carrier is extraordinary! It's not like I can't experience the feeling of being a handsome guy. To be honest, the carrier will last forever, and I really don't want to care about my body experience." Whatever happens, let yourself go and enjoy your life!"

Everyone laughed ambiguously when they heard Yu Rong's words.

This smile contains a deeper meaning, just because Feng Luwan was present, everyone was embarrassed to express it, for example, using a carrier has stronger endurance, higher sensitivity and does not need to carry an insurance cover. This kind of convenience and ability is simply not possible on the body When it is achieved, the vast majority of people who have used the carrier will dislike the ontology.

Just like you have a Ferrari, a Rolls Royce, and a Lamborghini, would you still like to drive a QQ car?

However, Li Jiting, who always likes to laugh and jokes, didn't laugh, and said with a sneer, "Huh? You mean you used the carrier when you were not on a mission, and you used the carrier to pick up girls?"

Tai Chi Dragon's internal affairs regulations stipulate that it is not allowed to use carriers to intervene in the lives of ordinary people without performing missions.

Although this kind of thing is difficult to supervise, and they didn't use the carrier to do anything illegal, it did violate Tai Chi Dragon's internal regulations.Violating the regulations in Taijilong will be severely punished.

Even if everyone in Tai Chi Dragon thinks that it is harmless to use a carrier occasionally to experience life, the internal regulations are too strict. Who hasn't done a few fun things with the carrier in private?
But no matter what they think, no one dares to violate the regulations on the surface.

Yu Rong shook his head like a rattle in horror, "How dare I violate Tai Chi Dragon's internal regulations! Besides, I'm half a robot, won't I scare people to death when I walk on the street?"

"Hehe! Don't think that I don't know your little tricks. You choose to maximize the human body, and use concealer to cover up the linear lines a little bit. How can ordinary people distinguish them?" After a pause, Li Jiting said earnestly: "I see You are so comfortable that you have too many days, I warn you! It is strictly forbidden to confuse the life of the carrier and the body, and use the carrier as the body, as if the body is a burden, you bastards really need to take a few days of ideological education
"From tomorrow, we will gather at [-] o'clock every morning to do morning exercises, run [-] kilometers at a fast speed, and then take a one-hour class on internal affairs regulations. I will personally supervise you." Li Jiting said with a serious face.

Immediately, there was a sound of wailing in the carriage, but no one pleaded for mercy, nor did they find an excuse not to participate.

Using the carrier to do some private affairs is even more unavoidable for the Kanglong Group, and it is indeed difficult to supervise. Most of the time, the people above can only turn a blind eye, as long as they don't do big things that are out of proportion.

The identity and background of being able to enter Tai Chi Dragon is not small, so using the carrier to experience life is an unspoken rule that is not mentioned at the bottom and not pursued at the top.

Feng Luwan saw through the rearview mirror that everyone in the Qianlong team in the car had a painful expression, but no one asked Li Jiting to run less.

The vast majority of law enforcement officers will not spend points on strengthening the main body, especially the official chosen ones, because the official chosen ones, mostly cyborgs, have high requirements for physical fitness, and strengthening the main body It can be achieved through exercise, and it is not worth spending points.

Therefore, no matter whether you are the official chosen one or not, you will not waste so many points on strengthening the body. At most, it is enough to point out the first point of genetic enhancement
Therefore, a [-]-kilometer run is not a small burden for the body, especially for a computer genius like Yu Rong who doesn't like exercising, and who spends most of his time doing logistics is even more fatal. But Yu Rong didn't fight at all, he just looked worried with a mournful face.

Li Jiting sighed to the group of people behind and said: "Do you know why I value Yan Funing? Because he clearly separates the body and the carrier. Even though many things are easy to do with the carrier, he still chooses to use the body to do it at all. Coveting convenience, maybe this is a bit stupid, just like insisting on wearing formal clothes on a hot day, it is meaningless except to make oneself suffer, but such a person has strong willpower."

But Li Jiting didn't say the last sentence, "Although his character has some flaws, I think he can adjust it."

--------------

Wearing a dark suit, Yan Funing walked into the Lohas City, attracting a lot of attention from men, women and children. Countless people pointed at him, and some even tried to find if there was a camera behind him. don't care.

He walked to the map of the shopping mall and glanced at it, quickly determined the location, and walked directly to the walking elevator, heading towards the location of the hair salon on the first floor that Yan Yitong told him.

After getting off the elevator, according to the location map in his mind, he walked straight to the door of the hair salon with almost no need to search.

The decoration of the hair salon is gorgeous, with white European-style wooden frame walls, golden hollow-rimmed mirrors, and a lot of high-power spotlights installed on the top surface of the black aluminum grille, which illuminate the entire space very transparently and brightly. There is a smell of Armonia in it, which is slightly pungent.

Yan Funing walked inside, looking for Yan Yitong and Fu Yuanzhuo among the glamorous hair stylists and female customers, and soon he saw Yan Yitong who was waving to him with a face full of surprise in the VIP area, and then he saw Yan Yitong from the tall feet Fu Yuanzhuo stood up on the stool and shouted: "Brother Ning!"

He was just about to nod and smile, but he saw the face of a man who was sitting on the barber bench with his back to him and his head slightly lowered, cutting his hair beside Yan Yitong and Fu Yuanzhuo.

Black-rimmed glasses are placed on a white table, a glass of boiled water is rippling in a transparent plastic cup, blue hair is falling like snow under the silver scissors.

The stern face he was already familiar with appeared in the sun-shaped gold-rimmed mirror
Yan Funing clearly remembered this indifferent expression, it was a kind of loneliness that originated from fate.

It is not the kind of loneliness that is incomparably high and cold, nor is it the kind of solitary admiration that is hard to find, nor is it pain, self-pity, or sadness.

It is a kind of loneliness accompanied by death that emerges from the bones, as if life will disappear from time at any time, you can't grasp anything, you can only watch with cold eyes
Yan Funing couldn't forget this expression. On the 240, he stared at the troubles on the K24 20 hours a day, and most of the time he spent most of his time observing the behavior of this boy named Cheng Mo on the monitor, and then trying to figure out what he was doing. What, what is his purpose of doing this.

Yan Funing can probably figure out the logic of Cheng Mo's behavior, but he regrets that Cheng Mo didn't do well enough and was a little emotional. For example, Cheng Mo went to inform the American couple and secretly informed the family of three to get off the car. If it was him, he would definitely I won’t talk too much; for example, Cheng Mo should have stirred up the chaos on the train earlier, but Cheng Mo only killed a few members of the Wild Wolf Gang. If it was him, he would also kill a few members of other gangs and mobilize civilians rise up against
In Yan Funing's view, Cheng Mo is sensible enough, but he cannot escape the constraints of the social and moral framework.

Therefore, after K20 and 240 lost contact, he guessed the fate of this boy and Xie Minyun. He deduced it countless times. In the case of the clown Sith, no matter what, this weak boy has no chance of surviving. So he didn't even open his mouth to ask Li Jiting for confirmation.

However, he never expected that the boy he thought was impossible to survive would appear in front of his eyes at this moment.

This kind of inconceivable was comparable to his surprise when he came into contact with Ouroboros for the first time.

It was the first time that Yan Yitong saw his brother in a daze, and he was still looking at his future boyfriend in a daze. He was a little at a loss, and thought: "Could it be that there is a telepathy between geniuses?" Yan Funing's arm, said a little shyly: "Brother, what are you looking at? Do you know Cheng Mo?"

Yan Funing's heart sank, and he said calmly: "I don't know me, I just want to see what kind of person my sister is full of praise."

"Hey! Brother, I guarantee you will like him, he is a genius just like you!" Yan Yitong said happily.

Yan Funing touched the short wig on Yan Yitong's head, and the spotlight shone on the thick black wig. He said lightly, "It doesn't matter whether I like it or not, as long as you like it."

In front of Yan Funing, Yan Yitong didn't deny that he liked Cheng Mo like he did in front of Fu Yuanzhuo, but just shook Yan Funing's arm blushingly and said, "Brother, Cheng Mo and I are just friends."

Yan Funing didn't speak, but just moved his eyes away from Yan Yitong, and glanced at Cheng Mo in the mirror. From this position, he could see Cheng Mo's face through the mirror, but Cheng Mo couldn't see him, just like he was in 240 same as above.

At this time, Fu Yuanzhuo also came over, and said with some complaints: "Brother Ning, why don't you tell me in advance when you come back, so I can go to the airport to pick you up."

Yan Funing looked at Fu Yuanzhuo and said with a smile: "I came back with my classmate, and he happened to be picked up, so I took his ride."

"What are you doing in someone else's car? You can't do that next time!"

"There's no need to care about these little things, our relationship doesn't pay attention to them." Yan Funing patted Fu Yuanzhuo's shoulder and said.

"It's been a long time since I saw you. You didn't come back last Chinese New Year. Originally, Tongtong and I wanted to visit you in England this summer, but you didn't allow us to go." After a pause, Fu Yuanzhuo said: "Not much Having said that, I will be the host at night, and we will go to the Red House to have a good meal, and we must drink until we are high."

Yan Funing nodded and said, "OK."

After the three exchanged pleasantries, Yan Yitong pulled Yan Funing to the side of Cheng Mo who was receiving punishment and said, "Cheng Mo, let me introduce you. This is my brother, Yan Funing."

Cheng Mo's head couldn't move, but his eyes turned sideways in his eye sockets to look at Yan Funing in the mirror who looked like a British gentleman in a black suit and said, "Hello, my name is Cheng Mo, and I'm Yan Yitong's classmate."

Yan Funing didn't look at Cheng Mo's face, but only looked at Cheng Mo's pupils reflected in the mirror. Those dark pupils, which looked like black-eyed galaxies, were not as deep as Yan Funing imagined, nor complicated and harmonious. Cold and silent, but like a white paper without wrinkles, blank and calm.

This is different from Yan Funing's imagination. A person who has killed many people can be so calm. It is not the kind of indulgence without guilt, nor is it the fearlessness of pretending to forget that nothing happened.

It's a pure conscience, not the absence of guilt.

Yan Funing looked at Cheng Mo's eyes in the mirror, smiled and said, "I feel like we've met somewhere before. But I can't remember it all at once."

Under normal circumstances, Cheng Mo doesn't like to use micro-expressions to observe others, especially people he knows, so although he was a little strange, he didn't try to figure out Yan Funing's expression, but just glanced at Yan Funing's handsome face in the mirror and said: "Yes Is it? It’s probably the case with a public face like me, and there will always be people who think they’ve seen it somewhere.”

Yan Funing shook his head, "Maybe it is! I heard from my sister that you are quite smart, and you even helped Fu Yuanzhuo get No. 2 in the whole grade, which severely dampened Du Leng's prestige."

Cheng Mo said: "I'm not smart, I just prefer to know some knowledge that others are not willing to understand."

"Coincidentally! I also have such a hobby. I especially like to look for the history that is unwilling to be made public in the old library, read those rational philosophies, and look for the ultimate mystery of numbers, such as the British Library. There are not only 5000 million collections, but also the manuscripts of Da Vinci and Michelangelo. Sometimes when you are tired of reading books and researching information, you will go to see their paintings and let go of the tired, yellowed There are their fantastic ideas on the graph paper, which makes people have to marvel at the sparks of those thinking. It's just a pity that the books now are mainly novels, the discipline of philosophy is about to disappear, and scientific works are getting more and more less and less”

If it was Cheng Mo in the past, he might agree with Yan Funing's point of view, but now he doesn't think so, "I also like libraries very much, but I don't quite agree with your point of view. I think that if libraries and museums in the world are Destroyed, all works of art and books are all gone, then there will be nothing left of humanity, all hope will be shattered, we will not survive by reason alone, that is why poets and artists must exist. Although science Hundreds of years have now been given the task of fulfilling human fantasies, but science is lacking in minds that yearn for ideals, because it dares not promise too generously, because it cannot lie. But we humans , is an animal that needs hopes, even if those hopes are false."
