End of Mystery

"Yes, it's that simple."

On the train, Xiao Xiao was still ignorant, and honestly told Lin Bo and others: "Everything I did in Night City was based on the perspective of the old president of our Black Gate City on the aborigines. In-depth research and calculation of the theory, and I personally just carried out a little trial and verification on the basis of his theory, but it is obvious that this attempt is very effective."

"The foreigner organization in Yedi City felt the pressure, so they finally agreed to trade with me."

"As you can see, the transaction process is very pleasant, and we are all very satisfied, although he said that I am no longer welcome to come..."

"..."

Lin Bo and the others were busy recording while listening, their expressions were a little dumbfounded: "It's that simple?"

Xiao Xiao said calmly, "Of course."

"We've only spent so much time in Night City, how complicated can it be?"

"..."

"...It's reasonable!"

Lin Bo tilted his head and thought for a while, then sighed, "Things are going much smoother than we imagined."

"It's okay, it's okay, we all had a good harvest, and we didn't cause any serious trouble..."

"..."

Xiao Si, who was dozing off next to him, glanced at them contemptuously, thinking that if these talents earn more money, they will have a good harvest?

Xiao Xiao was also curious when he heard it, and said, "Then what did you think at the beginning?"

"What I thought at the beginning was much more exciting than this..."

Lin Bo suddenly became interested, and said: "In the original plan, once we came here, we would probably be made things difficult by Night Bottom City, right? This group of people are notoriously stingy and stingy, and I guess you will definitely There is a little conflict, after all, neither of you is at a disadvantage, after the conflict, it will be my turn, and I will mediate for you as the Dante organization."

Seeing that he became more and more excited as he talked, Xiao Xiao also became interested: "How to mediate?"

Lin Bo smiled and said: "It depends on who you take advantage of in this skirmish. If you take advantage of the conflict, then I will favor you and go with you to take advantage of Night City. This will not only help You, also hold the grudge we suffered before."

"If Night Bottom City took advantage, then I will turn to them when I mediate."

"Not only can you gain a good reputation for your search for the fourth element, but you can also hold our hatred in Black Gate City..."

"..."

Xiao Xiao was dumbfounded when he heard this, this plan is really shameless and frank.

The key is that I followed his train of thought and thought about it, why did I feel it was so reasonable?

If he hadn't read too many materials left by the old president before he left, and saw the aboriginal perspective, maybe things would go as he wished, and even said that it was more serious than he expected, and he was at a disadvantage , and can't get back the unquenchable heart...

can only say……

Xiao Xiao sighed and said, "Thanks to the information left by the old president."

No matter what, I still have to keep my little secret, so I can explain myself to Lin Bo's guess:

The old president is too arrogant.

Because of the old president's approval, things went so smoothly for me.

Anyway, he's dead, so he can't come out and explain that he's not that awesome.

"really."

Lin Bo listened, and was also deeply moved: "You old president of Heimen City, I have heard of his name before, and there is no simple person in these cities who have mixed up with the status of president, but you know He is so powerful because he actually cultivated such a powerful person as Yang Jia, but looking at it now, this person is really good at academics and has a lot of talents."

Xiao Xiao smiled, and said to Lin Bo, "Can you do business now?"

"sure."

Lin Bo took out the things he had just recorded at hand, and said: "The things you did in Night City can be regarded as a very important piece of experimental data. The Dante organization has always attached importance to these theoretical things. Look at them. It even exceeds the strengthening element."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

When Lin Bo took these things to Dante's organization, the reputation would most likely belong to the old president.

It's just that, strictly speaking, what I told them is indeed the set of theories left by the old president. It's just that, through the experience of the aboriginal perspective, I have carried out some key data on these theories. Some modifications, his own identity is a bit special, although he doesn't know what this means, but from now on, he has already prepared in advance.

"No problem, far better than we imagined."

The team members under Lin Bo were a little excited when they heard the words, and said: "In addition, in order to make our data appear important, when we report, it can be said that in the process of obtaining this data, we received help from Heimen City and The serious difficulties in Yedi City were all obtained after we endured humiliation, acted according to circumstances, and paid a lot of money and points..."

Lin Bo was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help patting his thigh: "That's right..."

"Anyway, Night Bottom City is notoriously stingy, and the Black Gate Society has a very bad reputation..."

"In this way, if we take this report back, it can't be regarded as atonement, but a proper contribution!"

"..."

Seeing their excitement, Xiao Xiao felt happy for them.

It's just that I feel a little awkward in my heart: "You say that our Heimen City has a bad reputation in front of me, the president..."

"...Is it not very good?"

"..."

Lin Bo narrowed his eyes: "Don't interfere with our work."

Does this person not understand how the reputation of Heimen City became bad?

Xiao Xiao: "..."

I always feel that Lin Bo is really shameless.

I just got the points and report I donated as a gift, so I am not so polite to myself...

"What's all this?"

Just as they were discussing and putting away the recorded content, the man in the plaid shirt under Lin Bo was suddenly a little surprised:

"Isn't it too much to say?"

"..."

The people around were a little surprised at the same time, and looked at him: "What's wrong?"

"The people in Night City are simply too much..."

The man in the plaid shirt turned his tablet over and said, "Look at what they said, just now this guy whose ID is Yedi Ghost is breaking the news on the Internet: Which bastard told that pervert in Heimen City that we have him here If you need anything, that guy came here empty-handed. If you don’t want to give a point, you just want to get a white wolf from our night city..."

"who is he?"

"He is a big monster who killed hundreds of people from the hell organization without blinking an eye!"

"He is an old pervert who turned Heimen City into a restricted area of ​​hell by himself..."

"Where is our Yedi City his opponent? That guy directly pushed the chainsaw into our faces and forced us to negotiate terms. Not only did he take away a precious A-level collection without spending a penny, he even blackmailed three of us. 100,000 points... It's not that the people in Night City didn't resist, but it wasn't just that our perfect line of defense was torn apart by him expressionlessly, even the city we were loyal to..."

"...The city was beaten to tears by him!"

"Is there still a law of heaven? Where is the king's law of a foreigner?"

"..."

"Um?"

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Xiao saw all the content of the posts, and couldn't help being surprised:

"How did you tell the city's will?"

"...No, that girl didn't cry, instead she looked a little gloating..."

"The others are even more outrageous?"

"...I obviously only extorted 30,000 points!"

"..."

Lin Bo and others looked at this post and felt a little dumbfounded: "Didn't you buy it with points?"

"yes!"

Xiao Xiao said: "I haven't even seen their city will!"

"Why do you say this with a guilty conscience?"

Lin Bo and the others were stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "There is no need to explain this. Every city is a living body, but this living body is at a high-dimensional level. Even the president of his own city wants to see this city. It’s not easy to manifest your will, let alone an outsider, I guess this is an exaggerated statement, no one will believe it, but other things they said..."

Xiao Xiao said firmly: "The others are also fake, slander."

"That's true."

The man in the plaid shirt also nodded and said, "More than 90% of the things on the forum are untrustworthy. Everyone is used to it."

"Look, now there are people below who refute him..."

"..."

Sure enough, Xiao Xiao swiped down his mouse, glanced at it, and saw that a hidden account had already replied below: "Speaking of President Xiao, no one knows him better than me, I think The people in Yedi City are obviously talking nonsense, this President Xiao is just a person who likes dancing and dogs, and the worst thing he can do is to skin the living people..."

"Dance when you kill..."

"I feel better when I'm alone with a dead body..."

"In many ways, it shows the same temperament and hobbies as the hell organization..."

"..."

"..."

"These words don't sound like rebuttals..."

Xiao Xiao was a little confused when he looked at it: "In addition, why is this ID hidden on purpose?"

The mood is somewhat confused.

Since Yang Jia gave me this forum, I haven't seen any good things on it. It stands to reason that my reputation has been so badly smeared, so I should go up and explain it, or just turn around and go back to Yedi City to ask what's wrong. What happened, but when he thought about the few problems before him now, Xiao Xiao felt that these things were not important anymore, and he still put the overall situation first.

First, I have obtained the Unextinguishable Heart, which also means that the investigation of the Black Forest should begin.

This company, which is well-known among the aborigines and seems to have a lot of influence, what did it do to itself at the beginning, and what are they doing now, the pioneer plan that was involved without their knowledge, and What effect?

Second, should the old president's Noah plan be really pushed forward?

The old president is indeed remarkable. He is a stranger, but he has done a lot of research on the theories of the aborigines.

And now judging from my own verification, most of these studies are actually true...

But it's only half true.

After all, the old president is a foreigner, and he has his own limitations in many places. Can his plan to stay succeed?

But if he doesn't carry out this plan, how will Mr. Ye and Yang Jia explain it?

These two people jointly pushed themselves to the position of the old president of Heimen City. They also concealed and guarded against each other, but it was obvious that the two people had the same attitude towards the old president. They waited to push forward. Has this been a long time coming?

And finally, most importantly...

... a mysterious guide.

... What role does it play in this matter, and what does it have to do with Miss Record Player?

...

mystery!

All of these are like a huge fog, covering the sky above Heimen City.

How to see through the truth in this fog?

The answer is actually very simple, just walk in.

Now, I already have the qualifications to step into this fog and start to unravel all this.

The unquenchable heart is in your own hands.

According to Dante's organization's calculations, as long as he gets this thing, he can step into the fourth stage of strengthening of the insight.

And in the third stage of the insight, I have already seen many things that other foreigners are unable to see. Then, this is already strong enough to offend the city, but what kind of things will I see? What is the answer?

"It's time..."

While Xiao Xiao was thinking about these things, Lin Bo and others put away the report and closed the forum page.

They knew there were more important things to do, so they all avoided.

Only Lin Bo looked at Xiao Xiao and reminded him: "In about an hour, we will be back in Heimen City, we can't wait any longer."

"You mean unquenchable heart?"

Xiao Xiao looked into his eyes and asked softly.

"yes!"

Lin Bo said: "I told you before that Black Gate City will not like you looking for the fourth element, because it means that your ability will exceed her bounds, and you will have the influence to resist her, and to see Some secret powers that she doesn't want you to know, but you have made a decision before, successfully went to Night City, and brought this key thing back..."

"Then, you'd better complete the strengthening before returning to Black Gate City."

"Otherwise, the city will of Black Gate City does not guarantee what will be done to this heart when you enter the city."

"..."

"..."

"It's all going too fast..."

Xiao Xiao sighed silently in a low voice, since he walked out of the bedroom, many things developed too fast.

So fast that you don't have time to prepare yourself.

But fortunately, I have the ability to think explosively, and I can slow down the time to think about all this.

So what?

So what to offend the city?

The self four years ago was struggling in pain in the bedroom, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion, and unable to live like an ordinary person. I was fighting against the huge fantasy and the ravings of unknown origin every day, like an ant pressing on the bed. He desperately dug out and dug out of the mountain above his head, just to find an escape route for himself, but who would have thought that after coming out, it would be another bedroom?

A series of thoughts seems to be very long, but in reality, only a short time has passed.

The answer is ridiculous.

Xiao Xiao suddenly felt that he was ridiculous, and had always wanted to get rid of this unknown and mysterious torment.

Now that he has the opportunity to officially step into the mystery, he is hesitating instead?

Don't hesitate!

He suddenly looked up at the carriage. There are many people in the carriage. From the perspective of foreigners, they are all asleep. From the perspective of natives, they are awake. According to the theory left by the old president, The reason why most of the time when foreigners leave the city, they are seen sleeping is because the strangers are far away from the power of their own city...

The space outside the city is not ruled by any city, but borders and intersections appear.

Therefore, the maternal power that always affects foreigners from other lands will also shrink its own influence, and simply make them invisible to foreigners.

However, these are not what Xiao Xiao wants to study.

He just pondered for a while, and called out a name in his mind: "Miss Record Player!"

Soon, faint electromagnetic hoarseness and melodic sound appeared, echoing in the minds of everyone in the carriage. In Night City, probably because the distance was too far, Xiao Xiao was unable to summon the power of Miss Record Player, even if it was It was not enough to fight against the armed forces of Night Bottom City, but now that it is closer to Heimen City, Miss Record Player's power has returned to Xiao Xiao's control at this time.

As the melody sounded, the aborigines in the carriage began to be affected, their eyes became confused, and they got up and walked out of the carriage.

But in Lin Bo's eyes, it was Xiao Xiao who looked at it with a single look. The flesh and blood in the carriage and the aborigines sleeping in the flesh and blood melted at the same time, and then they exited the carriage little by little. An empty area was left.

It was as if, when Xiao Xiao cast his eyes, all the power of will retreated voluntarily.

Xiao Xiao was left with a clean space.

After Xiao Xiao finished these, he slowly opened the gift box and looked at the beating heart inside.

The palm slowly moved towards the heart, and said in a strange tone:

"Strengthen...not extinguish the heart!"

"..."

In an instant, Xiao Xiao's palm felt unusually hot.

The expression of this heart, that never-ending flame, unexpectedly exploded all of a sudden, filling the entire carriage.

Even Lin Bo, who deliberately stayed in the carriage to avoid problems during Xiao Xiao's strengthening process, was taken aback by the flames. He felt a kind of spiritual burning, and his body jumped up suddenly. He retreated to the edge of the carriage, raising his hand to cover his eyes.

"Plop" "Plop"

Immediately afterwards, both he and Xiao Xiao heard the sound of a beating heart.

At the same time, what they didn't know was that when Xiao Xiao yelled that sentence, Heimen City at this time had been co-existing with the aborigines and foreigners in Heimen City, but no one could peep into it. This kind of thing seems to be pulled out of the city at this time, in a world that is different from the reality of ordinary people, like a shadow that is spreading rapidly, it quickly welcomes this train...

To describe it accurately, it is that part of the soul of Heimen City is leaving the body to meet the train.

Wherever this shadow passes, all thinking is closed, even including some relatively weak mysterious sources in the sea of ​​mist. They are wandering, looking for their own hosts, but when the shadow approaches, they stop. Thinking luck.

Until this shadow quickly enveloped the train, everything in the train also stopped moving.

Including Xiao Xiao and Lin Bo.

It was as if time had been taken away, and everything became blurred, only Xiao Xiao and the heart on his lap.

The flame above the heart beats quietly.

Under the reflection of the flame, Xiao Xiao's handsome face looked pale and fragile.

And the shadow coming from Heimen City vaguely turned into a vague human figure. She slowly bent down, ripped off the clothes on Xiao Xiao's chest, and then slowly cut open his chest , Picked out a strange thing in his chest, which was obviously different from the real heart, without hesitation, even with a little disgust, directly crushed this thing.

Then, she slowly put the heart in the box into Xiao Xiao's chest.

That heart seemed to fit Xiao Xiao so well.

"It's returned to its original owner..."

She looked at her work carefully, as if admiring a beautiful piece of art.

Then, she melted again and turned into a vague black shadow, pulled away from the train little by little, and returned to Black Gate City ahead of schedule.

...

...

"finished?"

In the realm that no one can see, there are curious voices asking.

"Um."

The helpless voice replied: "He is even wary of me, but he doesn't know..."

"This heart, only I can put it on for him..."
