walking with the devil

Guan Kai rushed to Jia Xin's office angrily, and slapped a small button-shaped thing on his desk, "You put a bug on me?!"

"Resource sharing." Jia Xin was very calm. "I just want to know the truth. It would be best to broadcast it live. Unfortunately, the tiny camera on your body fell during the fight between you and Shen Yue."

"You!..." Guan Kai was furious.

"Don't be angry, let me ask you something." Jia Xin lowered his voice and said in secret, "You should have known Zhao Qing for many years—you were friends when you were students, and you heard him talk about many things. Is Wu the name? You also heard it when you went to find Shen Yue. Bu Lu was not called Shen Yue, but Xu Wu. Lu is still asking him about Xu Wu, do you think this is strange?"

Guan Kaizheng's expression changed slightly, Zhao Qing did mention Xu Wu's name, but he didn't tell him, but he heard him talking to himself, and he said with a straight face: "No, Zhao Qing didn't I didn’t mention anything about Xu Wu. I’m leaving, goodbye. You’ve helped me this time, we’re even, but next time you plot against me, it won’t be so easy.”

Jia Xin smiled and watched Guan Kaizheng go out. Guan Kaizheng helped him a lot this time. He finally knew that "Xu Wu" referred to a person's name. Although he didn't know which two words it was, but which two words Maybe it's not that important, is it?He took out a large volume of materials in the safe, with a black leather cover, with gold stamped words on it: SCL file——Bulu, he opened the cover, and looked at the inner pages one by one, each page was cloth. Lu's photos and information, but if you look closely, you will find that the details of the photos show that they are not from the same era. From portraits drawn with a pen to black-and-white photos to color photos, each one looks like Lu, and the people next to him Introduction, everyone's name is Bulu, and they have different resumes. The only similarity is: they have been wandering all their lives, and they are trying to find something.

SCL is the abbreviation of Strange Events Research Laboratory. Jia Xin is one of the researchers of SCL. This laboratory has an ancient history and studies many strange creatures and events. Bulu is one of their longest researches. They have always suspected these People named Bulu who look the same are actually the same person, or the same creature. A few years after his death, he will be reborn again, and he will appear out of thin air in the appearance of an adult, and can integrate into society. People discovered that there was a human-like creature on this planet suddenly, but the researchers of SCL recorded it and found that he was looking for something, and today Jia Xin found that he was looking for a person, and it seemed Already found it. SCL needs to hold a landmark meeting, they need to formulate a new detailed research program, and make the most important decision in nearly a century.

The headquarters of SCL is in a modern building. Many new researchers are very disappointed. There is no mystery of ancient history here.The highest floor is the conference room, which seems to be tiled with cold-colored marble extending infinitely on the ground. There are several huge crystal chandeliers suspended from the dome of the hall, which are crystal bright. There is a huge round table in the center of the hall, surrounded by 20 people. Sitting on a large chair with a round table.

Sitting at 12 o'clock is the president. Seeing that everyone is already there, he announced the start of the meeting, "This is the 141st chief researcher meeting to discuss experiment No. 89. Everyone has seen the briefing. Congratulations to him for his breakthrough."

Jia Xin stood up and nodded to everyone. Everyone applauded and congratulated him.

"Next, we will discuss how to proceed with our research in the next step. Please use your best talents."

"I don't think it's appropriate to alarm our test subject too early. It will be troublesome if the fish dies and the net is broken. The test subject can be reborn after death, but we don't know how many years we will have to wait to monitor him again, and we don't know whether he can change his shape. , if we can, then we may never find him again."

"The subject of the experiment should not commit suicide to escape our pursuit. His purpose is to find his target. Our top priority is to find out why he found the target of 'Xu Wu', whether it is the same kind or something else. reason?"

"The most important thing is that we don't know what the next move of the experimental target is. He found what he was looking for, and then, is he going to leave or continue the next move? If we are going to hunt him down, what is the probability of a successful hunt? , What are we going to do after we capture it? I think that although the opportunity is not lost, there is no need to act rashly.” This time the speaker was an old man with a white beard, “We need more data to support us to make more accurate Now we are still in the fog, unable to tell the direction, and acting blindly will only increase the probability of failure.”

Someone retorted: "Then we just sit here and wait? You are always a faithful believer in the God of Creation, do you want to tell us to sit here and wait for God's will?"

The president stopped it aloud: "It is forbidden to attack other people's religious beliefs. More than half of the people here believe in the God of Creation. After all, we are used to mysterious events. Why do we insist on not believing in God? And the God of Creation It is our biggest research topic, and I am looking forward to your breakthroughs on this topic. Now let’s turn the compass forward and continue our discussion: Experiment No. 89.”

Jia Xin said: "I also agree to continue to observe. I can basically grasp the whereabouts and movements of the experimental subject Bulu. We still need more time to understand the target of the experimental subject Xu Wu. But I have to admit that this has a lot to do. Big risk because we don't know if they will do more than we think."

Everyone is silent, and the unknown is the most daunting. They have been pursuing the answers to unknown events all their lives, but they are inevitably full of worries when they are approaching the critical moment.

"I also agree to observe for a period of time, but we can have some backup emergency plans, specifying the circumstances in which we can take emergency action."

"Same as above, continue to observe and make emergency plans."

"Same as above..."

Bulu also convened a meeting with the key personnel of the firm. He was going to reduce his workload. In the future, the firm would be managed by Lu Xincheng, and all the businesses he had in hand would be handed over to other people in the firm.Xin Xin didn't understand. She looked at Shen Yue outside the meeting room. Could it be because of him?It seems that everything has changed since this person appeared.

Shen Yue doesn't know anything, he doesn't care much, his life seems to be bad enough - apart from remembering his name and not losing the mobility of an adult, he doesn't have any specific memories. Is it getting worse?

After the meeting, Bulu went to Shen Yue and took the milk from his hand, "How many cups did you drink today?"

Shen Yue thought about it blankly, he didn't remember it, since he never drank water anyway.

Bu Lu raised his head and drank the remaining half glass of milk in the glass, Shen Yue looked at him with raised eyebrows.

Bulu explained with a smile: "It's already cold, but you still want to drink it. I'll get you a hot cup."

"……no need."

On the way home, Bulu stopped the car and took Shen Yue to the book city. The two stood on the escalator leading to the upstairs. People feel that life has become more fulfilling.”

Bulu smiled and said: "I know, you have said this before. You have a library ten times larger than this book city. But to be honest, you are just a collector, and all you really want to read are idle books. , You haven’t read many of the must-read books recommended by experts and scholars.”

Shen Yue laughed after being shocked, shook his head and said, "I have a study room, but it's hard to understand what I want the library for."

Bulu leaned on the escalator and looked at Shen Yue, "It's not that you want it, but you already have it. You have everything that others don't have, but you don't live very happily. Now, you have lost everything you had. , you are still not very happy. Xu Wu, what do you want?"

Shen Yue smiled, and said, "Be careful..." The escalator came to the end, Bulu was not on guard, and almost fell, Shen Yue took a step forward to support him, his smile could not be suppressed, "Watch the road carefully."

Shen Yue let go of his hand, wanting to step back, but Bu Lu grabbed his wrist, "Tell me, Xu Wu, what do you want?"

Shen Yue is very helpless, you ask a person who can't remember the reason for the answer, "Okay, don't keep reminding me what my real name is. Maybe I don't want anything. Didn't you say that I once had everything? Then maybe Is nothing now what I really want?"

Bu Lu was sad, "But I want you to go back."

Shen Yue nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, then I'll go back with you." The truth is, it seems that you can't go back by yourself.
