Ten Billions of Stardust on the Wire

On the evening of November 11, the case of Ling Chi occurred, and Yan Yuhang was kidnapped in Blue Mill that night.

On November 11th, at the roundtable meeting of the supervision and investigation team, the joint task force began to investigate the personnel related to the general election of Faust Technology and the Chamber of Commerce one by one.

On the afternoon of November 11, Wang Yang asked Yan Yuhang to meet at Rusty Lake Coffee.

On the evening of November 11, Wang Yang received news from Yan Yuhang and went to Blue Mill, where he was reproduced by Yu Linyuan.

In the early morning of November 11, Wang Yang escaped from Blue Mill and Yan Yuhang died.An Zhuoyue met him at Rusty Lake, and Meng Liang took An Zhuoyue away.

Late night on November 11th——

Yu Linyuan's location is not unexpected, it is Wang Yang's home.Yu Linyuan is Wang Yang, and Wang Yang's home is his home.no problem.

The residential density in the old city is astonishingly high. Standing on the balcony and stretching your arms casually, you cross the border into the neighbor's territory.However, generally no one will open the transparent hatch of the balcony casually. The floor is too high, and the outdoor winter temperature and air flow are fatal to ordinary people.

The old apartment has one bedroom and one living room. The lights of the aircraft outside occasionally pierced through the fluffy snow curtain and shone into the room, like a searchlight in a prison.The sound insulation of the room was poor, and Wang Yang heard slight breathing in the bedroom.He didn't push the door right away - it was open, leaving a tiny crack.There are people in the bedroom.

Yu Linyuan was lying on the bed, curled up like a baby, completely different from his upright posture standing on the wire rope.He wrapped himself tightly, the quilt was pulled up to his chin, half of his pale side face was exposed under the messy hair, the charming makeup of the sea monster on the stage faded away, like a newborn child, clean, helpless, sinking in a dream .Wang Yang wondered if androids would dream of electric sheep.

No one has lived in this bedroom for a long time, it is Wang Zicheng's room.Wang Yang couldn't help laughing. It turned out that when Zicheng was there, he "seized" the only bedroom. Wang Yang was forced to sleep on the sofa, and he got used to it when he fell asleep.It's the same now, he has to sleep on the sofa.

Everything has changed, yet nothing seems to have changed.

"He's not Zicheng," Wang Yang told himself, it would be great if he was.

He wanted to light a cigarette, but in the quiet night, the sound of the lighter rubbing was as loud as a bomb.He didn't light a cigarette.

It's a strange feeling, you see yourself lying in bed, and another you takes over your whole life.You may feel anger, hate, contempt, but twinned with these emotions are doubt and curiosity.

He became me, what would he do?

He looked at him as if he was peeking into his own life.

Wang Yang took another step forward, and the sound of breathing in the bedroom stopped.

The moment he pushed open the door, a gust of wind blew towards his face with snow in the bedroom, and a figure was reflected on the fluttering white curtains, moving with the wind—the transparent hatch of the balcony was opened, and Yu Linyuan's whole body Hanging outside the window, one hand clasped the groove of the window, as long as he let go, what awaited him would be the abyss of the city hundreds of meters below his feet.

But he stood firmly on the rusty railing, just like he had stood on a steel wire as thin as a gossamer time and time again.For a moment, Wang Yang had the illusion that Linyuan Linyuan, when he used this name to replace the code name of the bionic man, he made up his mind to lock himself forever in the place closest to the abyss and destruction, standing on the wire all the time.

Wang Yang rushed forward, dragged another Wang Yang back from the edge of the abyss, and dragged him into the room. Two identical chests collided with each other, making a muffled sound.

In just a few seconds, a layer of crystal clear hoarfrost hung on their bodies, and snowflakes swirled in the high-altitude air currents, covering their sight and covering each other's expressions.

Yu Linyuan was completely woken up. When he jumped out of the window just now, he was almost in an unconscious state. He was so tired that most of his thoughts were still deep in sleep.The window was raised and opened, and if someone came to grab him during his sleep, he always had a way out for himself.

It's Wang Yang.Fortunately, it's Wang Yang... Yu Linyuan thought.He stood up on the ground, and felt a handful of wet liquid on his hand, which was blood.

"You..." Yu Linyuan slipped his hand and sat back on the ground.He pressed on the wound on Wang Yang's left arm. The wound extended from the inside of the elbow to the shoulder blade along the upper arm. Fresh blood oozes out from under the clotted blood. The weather is too cold to smell fishy.He saw the red scars of frostbite on Wang Yang's shoulders and neck, which were left by the rusty lake in the early morning.

"You, you were going to jump out just now?!" Wang Yang asked awkwardly with his tongue tied.He is actually afraid of heights.

He firmly grasped Yu Linyuan's wrist, "If someone wants to grab you, you will jump out of the balcony directly?! Do you know how high it is down here!"

Wang Yang was angry, and Yu Linyuan could hear it, "I am you now, if I fall to my death, Wang Yang, you will be a dead person in the citizen file. Are you worried about this?"

Wang Yang froze for a moment, he didn't think in that direction at all, "I can't let you jump off!"

A complex look flashed in Yu Linyuan's eyes, "Maybe, no one knows what will happen if nothing happened." His toes involuntarily curled up a little bit, grabbing the floor, as if he was not sitting steadily at the moment. On the ground, but standing on the steel wire.

"You still know how to be afraid!" Wang Yang said.

He got up and poured two cups of hot water, and it took a long time for the heat to feel warm on his face. Holding the cup, Yu Linyuan replied after a long while: "The people in the supervision and investigation team began to doubt my identity. I messed up." He He raised his face and smiled at Wang Yang, full of self-mockery.

"I thought you were exhausted," Wang Yang said.If the replacement of his identity is suspected, he cannot return to the supervision and investigation team.If you don't come back, don't go back.

Wang Yang lit a cigarette and held it between his fingertips. He didn't smoke, but watched the tobacco gradually burn into unbearable ashes. "There is no evidence at the crime scene that can confirm the suspicion. All relevant personnel are under investigation. Wei Qingyang's parents No exception. As long as you don't directly identify the murderer, other words will not be against you."

He glanced sideways at Yu Linyuan. He still remembered the silver bell in the hands of the deceased. If Yu Linyuan didn't know the inside story, Wang Yang wouldn't believe it.

Yu Linyuan noticed Wang Yang's gaze, "I don't know who the murderer is. There are at least a thousand bells on the costumes. Every time I clean the stage and the backstage, I can pick up a dozen bells. Maybe someone picked it up casually. "

Is it just a coincidence... Wang Yang stared at the other Wang Yang without saying a word.

Six days after the incident, the craziest version of the [Lingchi case] circulated on the Internet was that the father of the deceased, Wei Xiaoqian, was worried that he would lose his fortune in the general election, and wanted to get rid of the most powerful candidate for the next election, which was his son. Wei Qingyang.

"For power and profit, father kills son. This kind of thing is common in ancient times, but it is outrageous to put it in the new interstellar world." Yu Linyuan took the half-burned cigarette from Wang Yang's fingers, and tried to put it in his mouth. Side gestures.

Wang Yang also doesn't believe in the rumors of "father killing son", because so far the task force has not been able to find any evidence that can confirm "father killing son".

In the news, Wei Xiaoqian and his wife Wan Jing were devastated. Wei Xiaoqian even wailed loudly regardless of his image, saying that he had only two sons. The trees that were built eventually died miserably.

"How could I kill my own son!" Wei Xiaoqian wept at the camera, his voice trembling with elegance and vicissitudes, his cheeks full of age spots were sunken.He and his wife Wan Jing supported each other, and the new interstellar KU-32 united with Star City's magnificent and respected chairman and wife of the chamber of commerce, aged ten years overnight.

"The world is miserable, incompetent and white-haired people give black-haired people." Wang Yang sighed.Yu Linyuan snuffed out the low-quality tobacco stem and threw it into the glass, and finally couldn't help coughing it out.

"You're not used to the smell of smoke," Wang Yang said.

Yu Linyuan smiled dryly, "During the meeting yesterday, Li Shengfeng handed me cigarettes, and I frowned."

"Is it Li Shengfeng who suspects you?"

"Yes. He knows that you never leave your cigarette. Any hesitation is a flaw," Yu Linyuan replied, "An Zhuoyue should have shown it to you. Li Shengfeng has a problem. Logically speaking, he should be dead. Wang Yang, don't you here?" Be safe, find a way to go."

"It's safe for now," Wang Yang put the glass on the window sill, only Yu Mangmang outside the window. "I have already dealt with the ones that chased me before," he said.

The journey home from Rusty Lake Coffee was not too far away, but Wang Yang walked all day and arrived home late at night.

On the way back, he encountered 12 batches of monitoring probes. The probes are small aircraft with extremely high sensitivity.Wang Yang spread the EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) interference code-named [Stardust] to them, blocking the probe's signal reception, causing a cognitive bias towards his own tracking objects, and forming a small monitoring gap in the old city area.

This blank space is enough for Wang Yang to go home and take a short rest.

It turned out that what he was worried about had already been taken care of, which was beyond Yu Linyuan's expectation.Wang Yang actually let his own despicable tricks and weak threats go, and chose to stand on his side.

"You still jamming? I thought the police wouldn't do that."

"It's the same system you used in the basement of Blue Mill. The one Zicheng taught you to use is the one I taught him. But the name [Stardust] was given by Zicheng," Wang Yang looked for from the bottom of the closet. He took out the medical bag and handed it to Yu Linyuan, "Can you sew needles?" The wound extended to the back, and Wang Yang couldn't sew it by himself.

Yu Linyuan hesitated, and traced the open flesh with his fingertips vaguely. His pain nerves were underdeveloped, and he didn't know how painful it would be for ordinary people to be stabbed like this. "I can't sew... I can learn now."

His learning ability is indeed very strong. The first three or four stitches are trembling, and the stitches are crooked, and he becomes more and more proficient in the latter part.The opened flesh was tightened, Wang Yang gritted his teeth and endured it.In fact, there are anesthesia needles in the medical kit, but Wang Yang generally does not use them.

"Your junior brother has gone home?" Yu Linyuan asked.He thought that there should be two people who came, but it is possible that the young master went back to find his father earlier.

Wang Yang frowned inadvertently, and Yu Linyuan realized that he had acted harshly, so he said harshly, "I'm sorry."

"The basement burned," Wang Yang said.

"It's okay," Yu Linyuan sighed.The managers of Blue Mill are best at dealing with people who are not good at supervision. There are not many "food" who can escape alive, and not many people who look down on "food" can survive.

"Those ashes..."

"Their souls have already flown away, stronger than mine."

"Those fish..." Wang Yang thought of the big stupid silver fish in the tank, they were not the same as the ashes, they were alive, "Sorry, I messed up too."

"Do you think there is a difference between live fish and bionic fish?" Yu Linyuan's hand stopped.

"No."

Wang Yang's shoulders sank, he wanted to look back, but Yu Linyuan pulled him back. "Don't move," Yu Linyuan said.

"You and Yan Yuhang have a very good relationship," Yu Linyuan said in a declarative sentence.

Wang Yang nodded, "Why?"

"It's nothing, I'm a little envious," Yu Linyuan said, "It's strange, envious, it sounds like a person. They made us like human beings, but they refuse to treat us like human beings."

"They lack slaves. They have been lacking since ancient times. People are willing to trample people under their feet. Those below will always want to stand up."

"Can you stand up?" Yu Linyuan asked.

Wang Yang thought for a moment, "Some people can stand up."

"Oh shit."

"Huh?" Yu Linyuan's voice was so soft that Wang Yang couldn't hear it clearly.

"Oh shit!"

Once upon a time in the laboratory, Wang Zicheng firmly refused to allow Yu Linyuan to learn swear words.Later he learned to imitate many people, imitating experimenters, imitating cautious clerks, imitating those provocative Yingyingyanyans at Blue Mill, actors and actresses, and imitating high-ranking children like Yan Yuhang.

He swears a lot in parodies, but never once has he despised the world for who he is, for what he wants, as he does today.

"Damn!" Yu Linyuan laughed loudly, "Damn! Damn! Damn Wang Yang, I found out that I might like you! It's disgusting."

"Like" is a disgusting word in his opinion, everyone who went to sleep with him in Blue Mill 20370 said "like", Yu Linyuan felt disgusted.His body, which is piled up by technology and the mind supported by artificial intelligence, has no way to distinguish the two contradictory emotions of "like" and "disgusting".

He is so dirty, but his eyes are so clean, and his smile is also clean.

Wang Yang was burned by Yu Linyuan's words.

"Like" is never a mean emotion, he just didn't expect these two words to be uttered from Yu Linyuan's mouth so easily.This is something Wang Yang can't do, he's past the age where he can easily confide in his heart, even if he goes back to his boyhood, he can't do it.

Yu Linyuan is too young, he has only opened his eyes to see the world for seven or eight years, and he can learn things far beyond human beings from the interconnected things.But those are dead knowledge for him, he has no practical experience, and he will not have feelings beyond the system settings.

The "like" he said was just a kind of recognition.

Wang Yang put on his coat, and the stitches from his elbow to his shoulder blade looked like a dormant centipede.This is the only difference between him and Yu Linyuan's disguised Wang Yang.

"You don't understand what liking is. You can learn it slowly," he said.

Yu Linyuan didn't understand what he meant, "I learn everything very quickly."
