End of Mystery

Chapter 198 The Core of the City (5,500 words)

"died?"

Xiao Xiao clearly felt Yang Jia's shock and abnormality from Yang Jia's reaction, and even a little bit of horror.

In her heart, she suddenly felt an indescribable sense of boredom, and even wanted to hang up the phone directly and throw it far away. At this moment, what was Yang Jia thinking about? Shocked that he killed his own father and treated himself as a monster just like the dead father? Perhaps, I should explain myself? But what's the point of such an explanation...

Ridiculous, ridiculous, his heart is actually full of disgust for this world.

What I hate the most is myself.

However, countless messy thoughts flashed through his heart in an instant, and these thoughts were even about to overwhelm him.

Yang Jia's answer suddenly exceeded his expectations: "Where are you?"

"I'll go pick you up."

"..."

Such a reaction suddenly made Xiao Xiao startled, he stood quietly for a long time, and said slowly, "Why?"

"Why else?"

Yang Jia whispered: "Because you are in a bad state, wait for me."

Xiao Xiao quietly listened to the voice coming from the microphone, and after a long time, he nodded slowly.

After hanging up the phone, he sat down on a bench by the street, lowered his head, and watched the traffic flow in front of him form a line.

In his head, there was always a blunt sound echoing, making it impossible for him to form effective thinking.

It's back to the state it was four years ago...

My thinking seemed to be smashed into a paste, a mysterious and unknown force entered my head, smashed everything, and also made me lose the ability to concentrate, I couldn't think, I couldn't perceive, only one There is a clear feeling, that is pain, like a nightmare in a state of high fever all the time, confusion, depression, and endless stretching of time.

The ability to think explosively allows you to do things that many people cannot.

It's like reacting faster than others, understanding something faster, and even feeling the external pain a little longer.

But only, the painful perception that emerged in his mind could not be resolved.

Not only could it not be solved, but also because of the explosion of thinking, it doubled the perception of the pain in my mind.

Xiao Xiao actually wanted to see Yang Jia very much, and especially wanted to see other people at this time.

But he didn't know how long it would take for him to see her in this situation where he let his thinking stretch. Maybe Yang Jia would rush to where he was right after hanging up the phone, maybe driving normally. It takes twenty minutes, but she arrived in five minutes by using the brander's ability. However, in her own world, these five minutes may feel like five days...

...even as long as five years.

This discovery caused Xiao Xiao to suddenly fall into a deep panic.

When I am in pain, I always hope that someone will accompany me, as if this can dilute my pain.

But unfortunately, when you are in pain and alone, the time always becomes long, making it impossible for you to escape.

Everything in this world can be discounted.

Only pain always requires a person to bear silently and clearly.

...

...

My mind is full of all kinds of weird ideas.

Xiao Xiao just sat on the bench like this, letting his thoughts prolong, silently enjoying the tearing and painful feeling in loneliness and silence. The image of the person shaking in front of him is a meaningless shot. After the chaotic editing, it is quickly played at ten times or twenty times the speed, and the distortion and collapse of the whole world can be seen.

I also want to take a deep breath to get myself out of this state.

But I can't do it. Some particularly easy things always seem to be more difficult than the sky in some painful times.

So he simply let it go, savoring all the anger, hatred, sadness, and pain carefully.

Father died.

Perhaps the only option to allow yourself to downplay this pain is to deny him.

Deny that he really exists, and believe that he is just an appearance in this city, just a monster in the skin of his father.

Because he is a monster, everything he does has no substantive meaning to him.

But at this moment, Xiao Xiao couldn't deny his truth, because just before, when he was fighting against the white demon, the power of the third stage of the clairvoyant was used to the extreme, and then at that moment, he suddenly saw the world Reality, seeing all illusions disappear, all twisted and mysterious things disappear, a clean and real world.

Strangers all look forward to returning to their hometown.

The world there is real, and the people are real, just like in memory.

So, is what I saw at that time the real world?

...

...

I don't know how long it has passed, in Xiao Xiao's perception, it has been so long that he seems to have turned into a fossil, and a thick shell of thinking has appeared.

He suddenly heard Yang Jia's voice and slowly woke up.

There is a feeling as if it has been a lifetime, and I faintly think of my father's death, it seems that it has been many years ago.

He tried his best to concentrate, looked up, and saw Yang Jia...

... quarreling with people.

At this time, she seemed to have just changed her clothes not long ago, and her hair hadn't been completely dried. She was frowning at this moment, looking at an old man standing beside her with a dog, and said displeasedly: "He's not in good condition, why should he give you his seat?"

"It's not about whether the condition is good or not, let me tell you..."

The old man was holding the dog, spitting everywhere: "This kid is not polite, my old man has been talking to him for a long time, and he doesn't pay attention to people."

"Besides, I just asked him to get up and move his seat, and sit there, what? Are you tired?"

"..."

Yang Jia's eyes were displeased, and he said coldly: "There's no need for him to give it to you."

"The benches are public, anyone can sit here and rest, you can, he can too."

"..."

"But my old man comes here every day, and it's just right to sit here when I'm tired from walking the dog..."

The old man became angry and almost poked Yang Jia's face with his finger: "Go over there and sit on the lawn."

"I have bad legs and feet, so I just don't want to go there."

"You young people are so qualified now that you don't even want to move your legs?"

"..."

Yang Jiaqi's pretty face turned pale, but she couldn't speak.

"Boom!"

At this moment, Xiao Xiao completely pulled out from the feeling of confusion and confusion, and suddenly drew his gun and fired a shot into the sky.

The violent noise made Yang Jia startled, and the old man was also startled.

The dog led by the old man was also stunned.

Those who watched the excitement by the side of the road, or pedestrians passing by, were also suddenly stunned.

Then Xiao Xiao frowned, suddenly raised the muzzle of the gun again, and fired two shots into the sky one after another.

"Boom" "Boom!"

"..."

There was no sound around, and suddenly everyone ran away with their heads in their arms. The old man threw the dog into the air and ran away like a kite.

"What's wrong?"

It wasn't until the surroundings became clean that Xiao Xiao raised his head and belatedly said to Yang Jia.

"fine."

Yang Jia looked into his confused eyes and found that he seemed to be ignorant of what had just happened.

Not only was he a little worried, but he said, "How are you doing?"

"fine."

Xiao Xiao shook his head and said, "I was a little unhappy at first, but I still feel a little unhappy when I think about it now. After all, it is my father. I can understand that he sometimes prefers another child, and sometimes he even feels I don't care what he did, but when it came to the critical moment, I couldn't accept it all of a sudden, and... I felt quite shocked."

As he spoke, he laughed at himself, reached out and rubbed his face, and said with a smile:

"However, it's over."

"..."

"Passed?"

Yang Jia's eyes suddenly looked a little unbelievable.

Just after listening to what Mr. Ye told her, she immediately called Xiao Xiao, but she didn't expect that as soon as the call was connected, she got the news that Xiao Xiao said that he was arguing with his father and that his father had died... …Normally, Yang Jia wouldn't care about these things. Even if Xiao Xiao really killed his father, Yang Jia's sense of him would only stay at a strange level.

For example, someone who can destroy a toy that looks like his father.

But the point is, according to Mr. Ye, Xiao Xiao is from the aborigines, and he lives in the cracks.

He is different from the Abnormal in his attitude towards certain things.

Then he...

With this in mind, she rushed over as fast as she could, but only saw Xiao Xiao sitting on a bench by the street in a very depressed state, letting an old man with a dog beside him scold him, but he didn't say anything. Just a word, without any reaction, the oppression and desolation on his body at that moment almost made her feel terrified, so she didn't even care about his image, and wanted to let the uncle leave quickly and let Xiao Xiao be quiet for a while.

But she never expected that when Xiao Xiao woke up, he would act so calmly.

As if that had been a long time ago.

Time can dilute everything, leaving only a little depression in the eyes.

She didn't know how to describe this strange feeling for a while, and slowly sat down beside Xiao Xiao, without asking anything.

On the other hand, Xiao Xiao, after sitting quietly for a while, suddenly asked, "Is there any smoke?"

Yang Jia was stunned for a moment, her expression was a little embarrassed, she was not used to carrying cigarettes with her anymore.

What's the use of bringing it?

How many sticks can you draw into your own mouth?

But after struggling for a few seconds, suddenly there was a slight noise from the sewer pipe not far away. Xiao Si pushed the cover of the sewer with his head, got out from inside, and silently put an unopened box of mint cigarettes and another Putting the lighter beside Xiao Xiao, he took two steps back and whispered, "Brother Xiao, don't worry, I have taught that old man a lesson just now..."

"I picked up his dog's shit on the road and threw it into his bed..."

"..."

Xiao Xiao's reaction was half a beat slow, and he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Looking at the menthol-flavored cigarettes in his hands, he thought silently, "Did Xiaosi wash his hands before buying cigarettes?"

It's already picked up anyway, it doesn't matter.

He silently tore open the package, smoked one in his mouth, lit it, and let the coolness flow in his mouth.

Then he said to Yang Jia: "You, and Mr. Ye, know everything about Heimen City very well."

"However, about the Black Forest Biology Laboratory in Black Gate City, and the Black Goat Club in the aborigines..."

"……understood?"

"..."

Yang Jia focused slightly, realizing that Xiao Xiao already knew a lot of things.

She pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "I know their existence and their operating logic, but I don't understand more."

After a pause, she added an explanation, saying: "As foreigners, we can do many things, but there is one principle that can never be ignored: we are not the masters of the city, the will of the city is the black gate." We are the true masters of the city, we are only existences serving the will of the city, and everything we can do is only allowed by the city."

"Therefore, there will always be some things in this city that we cannot get our hands on."

"Just like the original... people in this city, because of their own influence and the different functions of the city, we exchange them at different prices, and all the secrets in this city, some It can be easily displayed in front of us, and some are hidden deep in the city. If we investigate and understand, it will cause dissatisfaction and even rejection in the city.”

"..."

Xiao Xiao listened carefully, and suddenly said: "Then what will happen if I forcefully break into the Black Forest and see all their secrets?"

Yang Jia was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No one has done this before."

"Again, I don't advise you to do that."

"..."

She seemed to be organizing her own language, and after a while, she continued: "In this city, that guy code-named Shepherd, I have fought against him, his strength is incomprehensible, I can also understand Even so, until the city gives us clear instructions, we cannot pay him bystanders, and even investigate him is difficult."

"Because whether dealing with him or investigating him is an act against the will of the city."

"Investigation means peeping. For the will of the city, or the source of mystery, peeping is a crime."

"It is a blasphemy against the existence of a high position."

"..."

"Peeping is a sin?"

Listening to Yang Jia's words, Xiao Xiao suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The ability of the clairvoyant is to see all the secrets of the city without being bound by the rules.

Doesn't that mean that this is inherently a profane ability?

Although it was the first time he talked about Yang Jia's words, he actually knew something before, but he didn't think about going against the will of the city in the past, so of course it didn't matter to others. But now, he has already developed a strong feeling for the Black Forest and the Black Goat Club. Interest, in other words, this is not an interest, but a responsibility, a responsibility to oneself, so we must figure out the responsibility...

Then what should I do?

Will you be punished for investigating these things without authorization?

With a slight movement in his heart, he suddenly raised his head and looked at a place.

The Black Forest Biological Laboratory, as a landmark building in the city, may be mysterious in the eyes of many ordinary people, but in the eyes of foreigners, at least their location and nature are not secrets at all. Xiao Xiao knows that he is located in the city. which location.

The eyes of the seer appeared, and the city in front of him began to become deep.

The building between the Black Forest Biological Laboratory and itself has become blurred and even disappeared in an instant.

I can directly see this huge building complex, and even, as if I can see through it directly, and see everything inside.

[Warning: You are touching the core of taboo]

[Points are being deducted...]

【…】

But Xiao Xiao just looked at the black building, and just as he was trying to penetrate it, he suddenly received a strong signal. Generally uncomfortable, and at the same time, my points, like a stopwatch that is accelerating, the points dropped rapidly in an instant, until my eyes completely moved away from the black forest.

In just this one glance, more than 300 points were lost.

"So strict?"

Xiao Xiao couldn't help being slightly startled, realizing that there was nothing wrong with Yang Jia's words.

Not to mention breaking into the Black Forest by force, even if you just peek into the Black Forest by force, you will be severely punished.

How long can these 100,000 points last?

He temporarily dismissed this idea, looked at Yang Jia, and said, "But if I do have something that I want to know about?"

"Not a stranger..."

"..."

He tried to explain: "It refers to the aborigines, some things that happened among these aborigines."

"You really want to know about this?"

Yang Jia's face became a little serious at some point.

She stretched out her palm, pressed Xiao Xiao's hand, and said in a low voice: "This is not the first time you have such doubts, maybe this is a side effect of the insighter's route, you will always doubt something , However, when you had doubts before, I took you to see the edge of the city and dispelled your doubts, but for your doubts this time..."

After a slight pause, she looked into Xiao Xiao's eyes and said, "Our world is an abyss."

"Look too deeply, and you will suffer."

"..."

"So she already knew..."

Looking at Yang Jia's eyes, Xiao Xiao suddenly understood.

The discerner's sensitivity is different from that of ordinary people, which made him discover that Yang Jia already knew the problems he was facing.

I was worried about whether to tell them, but I didn't expect that Yang Jia knew these things, and after knowing these things, she was not vigilant and suspicious of herself, but advised herself how to stay away from these things...

Silent for a long time, just in my own consciousness, silent for a long time.

Xiao Xiao suddenly said: "I probably can't be considered a real foreigner, and I might not be considered an aborigine..."

"I don't even know what I am..."

"...Then how do you understand me?"

"..."

Yang Jia listened, also a little surprised, she thought Xiao Xiao would hide that secret, after all, even she and Mr. Admitted in front of myself.

"I don't know everything..."

It took her a long time before she spoke slowly, not wanting to lie in front of a clairvoyant, she just said slowly:

"So I don't know what state you belong to."

"..."

"but……"

She remained silent for a while, then met Xiao Xiao's gaze, and said softly: "At least I still remember, before everything happened."

"I didn't wake up, you didn't encounter these things before."

"We were still classmates then."

"..."

Xiao Xiao's eyes gradually changed, and it was difficult to describe his inner feelings at this moment.

"Especially, although you are very remarkable in the eyes of others, you have become a legend who defeated the hell organization."

Yang Jia smiled a little more relaxed, and said with a smile: "But in my eyes, after all, he is just a newcomer who has just woken up."

"It is also the responsibility of us guides to answer the inner doubts of the newcomers."

"Last time, in order to answer your doubts, I showed you the edge of the city."

"Then, in order to answer your doubts this time, it is also appropriate to take you to see the core of the city."

"..."

Xiao Xiao listened to Yang Jia's words quietly, and suddenly felt a little sour in his eyes.
