Symbiote Ninth

After leaving that day, Lin Yitai never came back, and Kaiser was still waiting. He developed a habit of silently reciting numbers, from one to one hundred, counting silently in his heart with the same rhythm as the clock, like another wave band breathing.Just when he was about to be confused about how many times he had counted to a hundred, suddenly two heavily armed soldiers broke in and took him away roughly.

The expressions of the two soldiers were as cold as iron, and the young faces were full of majesty that could not be resisted. Caesar struggled subconsciously, and the one on the left pushed him to the edge of the wall violently, knocking his shoulder blades against the wall. There was a bang, and his jaw was suddenly pressed hard by a cold gun muzzle. He coughed twice, his breathing was difficult, and he frowned and looked at the person in front of him.

The other party did not speak, and his eyes were very fierce. Caesar coughed twice, and the other party slowly relaxed the strength in his hand.

"Don't move around." After the other party finished speaking, he pressed his already painful arm and walked forward.Caesar couldn't see exactly how many corridors and stairs he had passed through, and finally the three of them came to a completely dark and unlit corridor. Under their feet was a very classic gold velvet carpet, and the sound of stepping on it was very small. It was a muffled puff, like a dull child hiding in a corner and sighing.

At the end of the corridor was a narrow door, about a head higher than Caesar's. Caesar thought it would be a very small room inside, but he didn't expect that after the door was opened, the inside was as wide as a square.

Above his head is a vast light like a starry sky, yellow and white intertwined, there is no fancy shape, just like the small cell where he was imprisoned, small circles are evenly arranged, projected vertically from the top of the head accurately.The seats around the room are like grandstands, arranged in steps, and densely packed people are next to each other, occupying most of the seats. From this point of view, the center of the room looks a bit low visually. Caesar was taken to one of the small, semi-enclosed interrogation seats in the middle. Two people on the left and right grabbed his almost immobile hands and pressed them against the transparent outer wall, and his wrists were imprisoned again.

He didn't know why it was only him, which made him a little nervous, what about Chenghe, what about Freesia, and where about Link?

After he stood still, there was a moment of silence, and then the noisy discussion was endless, so that no one noticed when Link and Freesia were brought up a minute later. Caesar subconsciously moved his hand, and the handcuffs were immediately snapped He squeezed even tighter, almost crushing his bones, so he had to try his best to turn his head to look at Link. Link was also looking at him. The look in his eyes was very familiar to him, concerned and reassuring. Caesar calmed down and gave him a nod. Nodding, he subconsciously licked his lips.Look back at Freesia.

strangeness.

Freesia's expression was very dull and calm, she didn't react when she saw Caesar, and she didn't react when she saw so many people surrounding him.

Link was taken to another interrogation stand, and the distance between the two was less than half a meter. Caesar's uneasiness surged like sea water. He tried to take a deep breath, and suddenly felt that all the pain in his body was attacking him at the same time. It was as if a thousand arrows were fired at once, making him unable to move.

He didn't know who he was facing, and the countless faces in front of him were blurred. Suddenly, a shrill bell rang, mixed with a vague female voice saying "please be quiet".The noisy conversation became much quieter, and Caesar could see the speaker clearly. It was a middle-aged woman he didn't know. Her long hair was loose like jet-black kelp, her bangs were neatly stretched across her eyebrows, and her round pair of The eyes are like a frightened cat, the black eyeballs are small, and when she is staring at her, there is a feeling of being on the back.

His information panel lit up in front of Caesar, just some basic introductions. People around stared at it for a while and began to whisper. He saw the woman lower her head and write something down on her computer.

"Caesar?" she said, much more clearly.

Caesar nodded, and hummed subconsciously again. The voice was very loud, filling the entire empty space in an instant.

So this time, no one spoke at all.

The other party checked his basic information, and Caesar answered them one by one. She clicked on the computer screen a few times and asked, "What is your position?"

Caesar asked: "Position?"

"What identity do you think you exist as?"

"I think——" Caesar hesitated for a moment, the restraint just now disappeared, his expression looked solemn, and he raised his voice slightly, "I think I am the leader of this world."

There was silence in the hall.

"Why do you have such an idea?"

"Because I am a higher race than humans."

"What do you think of humans?"

When she asked this sentence, Link stared back at Caesar nervously, his lips moved, as if he was trying to persuade him to speak cautiously, Caesar and Link looked at each other, the smile on his face widened a little, he stared at Link and said: "I hate humans, I think humans are our enemy, and all humans should be wiped out."

There was an uproar.

"Why do you think so?"

"Because humans deserve to be hated."

"When did you become self-aware?"

"After being restarted by 00019."

The subsequent conversation was almost the same as what Lin Yitai had rehearsed with him before. Caesar saw the shocked and unbelievable expression in Link's eyes. He turned around and looked at the woman's kelp-like hair, and suddenly felt that what he said was actually true. Part of it is true.

The questioning continues.

"What is the relationship between Chenghe and Link and you?"

"I hope to win Link and Chenghe to be my allies."

"What is your plan?"

"Before setting off for the occupied area, I plan to get close to Link or Chenghe, gain his trust, and ask him to help me restore all the symbiotes and spread outward from the third area."

"Did the plan go well?"

"We were wanted. As you can see, it didn't go well. The only smooth part was the development of my relationship with Link." He took a deep breath and tried to calm his voice, "The truth is, I love him and he loves me, and I hope we have common ideals besides love, just like he doesn't see me as a weird robot, and I don't want him to be a human like you."

What Link's eyes looked like, Caesar couldn't see at all, he stared straight at the large piece of kelp, and the other's lips opened and closed.

"you love him?"

"Yes, I love him," said Caesar, "worldly love, and I believe he loves me too."

The woman raised her eyebrows in disapproval, and continued to the next topic. She manipulated the computer, and a huge projection appeared out of nowhere in the venue, showing the surveillance of Caesar leaving Link's room.

"Is that you up here?"

"It's me." Caesar recognized the scene, "That was the day before we set off for the enemy-occupied area, and Link was called away by Qi Shijing."

"What did you do?"

"I—" Caesar raised his voice, "I just want to go for a walk."

"Just out for a walk, why avoid the guards?"

"I didn't want to have unnecessary contact with other people at the time."

The woman shook her head helplessly and played another video.

Caesar pushed open the door of honey flow milk, strangled the proprietress by the neck, and killed her.

"Is this you?"

"Perhaps so," Caesar said.

"Is it really?"

Caesar blinked, stared at himself in the video, nodded and said, "Yes."

"Why do this?"

"I told Freesia some secret things, and I was afraid that they would tell it after they heard it."

"But they rescued you when you were cornered."

"Huh?" Caesar said logically, "So, what's the matter?"

"Why are you admitting all this?"

"Because according to my calculations, things have reached this stage, and I can't make a comeback. The odds of winning are almost zero. Even if I barely escape the fate of being destroyed by lying, I won't have the opportunity to do what I want again. There is a high probability that the source of power will be cut off or imprisoned. I think... such an ending is not what I want. Instead of this, I might as well take this opportunity to say what I want to say. If this video can be For others who are here today, I want to say that if you are suffering from inexplicable oppression, I hope you don't think that is normal or that waiting can make things better. Humans are a very bad creature. Waiting serves no purpose other than to make humanity more unscrupulous, I hope..."

His words were drowned in a noisy exclamation, and someone uttered very angry curses, but Caesar kept calmly staring ahead.

The questioning basically ended here, Link's information panel popped up, and the woman began to question Link.

"Were you directly involved in the killing of the soldiers?"

"Not directly involved." Link's voice was a little erratic, as if he had been controlling his urge to look back at Caesar.

"Did you know that the Son and the Holy Spirit killed many soldiers?"

"know."

"What do you think?"

"I think—" Link looked a little distraught, "I think survival is an instinct, and if they don't resist they will be killed, so this doesn't prove..."

What can't be proved?Link thought of the scene of Caesar's murder just now, and suddenly couldn't continue.

Link's questioning was very short and ended quickly, and Freesia's was even shorter. Freesia's attitude has always been very strange, as if her mind was wandering, and her answers to questions were also vague.

After all the inquiries were over, everyone started whispering, Caesar finally dared to look back, and he saw Link, a familiar face with a strange expression on it.

The handcuffs were released, and two young soldiers came over, ready to take him away.

Link only opened his mouth, and asked very lowly, "Is it true?"

Caesar looked at him, and suddenly a brisk song started to play automatically in his head. A Japanese man had been singing there, "The city doesn't know the change of seasons... Mom sent a small package, I really want to go back to my hometown , go back to my hometown..."

Under this quite real auditory hallucination, Caesar did not answer Link's question. With a dreamy smile on his face, he stretched out his arms to hug Link, turned his head and kissed him, in front of countless people , kiss him.

Link's pupils dilated, and he subconsciously pushed him away.

Bang, the circling song in Caesar's head stopped, his rationality returned, and he finally recognized where and when he was, and finally remembered that he still had one last task to complete, and he wanted to answer Link's question.

"Do you think it's true?" He replaced the answer with a rhetorical question. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart. Link once talked about his tone, the attitude that subconsciously pushed him out of the normal people's team , although the two people have a lot of love for each other, but the barrier, the high wall between the two people, is caused by the two people's completely different identities, there is no way to change it, and it is impossible to change it of.

It’s not so much that Link was deceived by lies that seemed meticulous but could not withstand scrutiny, but that he was subconsciously willing to believe that Caesar was such a person... Could it be that he didn’t know the technology of video falsification?He definitely knew, but when he saw those videos for the first time, his expression was not completely shocked and unbelievable, but he fell into self-doubt. If the person in the video is Cheng He, Link must have insisted on retesting the authenticity of the video, because he knows Cheng He and trusts Cheng He, but he doesn’t have enough courage to understand Caesar , Trust Caesar.

Thinking of this, Caesar felt even more relieved. He licked his soft lips, stared into Link's eyes and said, "I'm sorry."

I'm sorry for many things, I'm sorry for your hugs and kisses, I'm sorry for the temperature of your palms, I'm sorry for your hard short hair and your clean eyes, this is everything I'm sorry for.

Link and him stared at each other for a moment, and the originally calm eyes suddenly flooded with crazy emotions. He grabbed Caesar's collar and pushed him back, slamming him against the high table.

"You promised me." Link seemed to use all his strength to restrain himself from lowering his voice, "How could you—"

"I didn't promise you, you remember wrongly." Caesar had deep regret in his eyes, "It's a pity, we always misunderstand each other, don't we?"

"You clearly promised me!" The whites of Link's eyes were bloodshot, his pupils shrank a little because of despair, and he looked almost collapsed. A transparent film of water quickly formed on his eyeballs. Caesar saw it and felt very sad. Heartache, he doesn't want Link to cry, let alone because of himself.

"I'm really sorry." Caesar blinked slowly, "But I hope you don't forget me, okay?"

Link was stunned, unable to speak, Caesar reached out to touch his face, "I know you are disappointed in me, but I don't want to be forgotten by you."

Soldiers rushed over and pushed him away. Caesar was taken to a small room on the edge of the meeting place. There was no light and no one in it. He could only stand there and wait. After a while, someone pushed open the door and took him away. Back to the waiting seat.

The woman with kelp-like hair spoke, and she said: "Son of Symbiosis, convicted of crimes against humanity, intentional homicide, and crimes of disturbing public order, was sentenced to be destroyed. The Holy Spirit, the symbiote, was sentenced to permanent imprisonment for the crime of intentional homicide and the crime of disturbing public order. The execution time will start immediately. Link and Chenghe were temporarily sentenced to imprisonment, and the next trial of the two will be held again in two days .”

Very gentle music began to play in the hall, like a pool of spring water wetted the flowers on the shore, and Caesar's heart softened accordingly. What appeared in front of his eyes was not the scene when he was about to die, but the scene he had with Lin for the first time. When Link met him, he recalled that when Link picked him up, he was suddenly taken away with his arms pressed roughly, Caesar could only be completely tamed, he staggered forward, and suddenly heard Link's muffled roar came from behind.

At this point, Caesar finally understood that he might never see him again. This is the last side of the two people in this life. It turns out that the fate between people is so short and hasty. He had already lost the time when he was young, and the song sounded inexplicably in his mind, "Mom sent a small package, I really want to go back, I really want to go back to my hometown..."
