The Path Toward Heaven

The snowflakes still seem to be floating irregularly, but they are not.

The room was still as quiet.

Jing Jiu exited the room without leaving the room, and waited calmly.

After a while, the man in the fog also left the room, and followed him to the distance.

The hidden net in the virtual screen is like a void universe, which can construct a barrier according to the user's mind, and a house can be built in an instant.

If you like, you can even build a palace here, but this palace is built on the sand and gravel of data, and it only needs a gust of wind to collapse.

Jing Jiu pushed open a door in the void, and motioned for the other party to follow him in.

The man in the fog was obviously dissatisfied with the square house he built, shook his head, and built a Ferris wheel not far away.

— This is a woman.

Jing Jiu came to this conclusion not only because the other party likes ferris wheels, but also in the novels and movies he has skimmed through, there are quite a few men who like ferris wheels. The problem is that that person also likes to cover his face in a cloud of fog like Master Bai.

Only a woman would do that except himself.

As soon as he and the man walked in, the Ferris wheel began to rotate, the speed was fast and slow, which represented the automatic update of the algorithm. At this time, it was believed that no one could overhear their conversation. The man obviously wanted to show off his technical ability to Jing Jiu, but unfortunately Jing Jiu obviously didn't care.

The person you want to check is Chen Xin. He used to be a space soldier from the Fourth Military Region of the Alliance. He died in the battle against the Sea of ​​Dark Things eleven years ago.

The man in the fog said: Since you want to investigate him, it means that he is still alive, right?

Jing Jiu said, He's dead now.

The man in the fog guessed the meaning of his words, and after a while of silence, he continued to ask: Then what exactly do you want to investigate?

Jing Jiu said: He is an assassin, I want to know who bought him, or which organization he belongs to.

Modern people generally call killers. That person was not used to calling assassins. After a long silence, he suddenly asked, Have you ever heard of butterflies?

Of course Jing Jiu knew that what she was asking about was not that kind of Lepidoptera insect.

The man in the fog said: About two hundred years ago, there was a special department in the alliance military. It had no serial number or organization code, and it didn't exist in the files. You don't have to ask me how I know this department. I just need to tell you that it did exist, but it was disbanded by the military soon.

Jing Jiu said, Continue.

The man in the fog said: Although the special department does not have any code name, in the first three operations, traces related to butterflies were found on the scene.

Jing Jiu was not used to this style of half-talking and waiting for the other party to answer, but he had no choice but to ask, Huh?

In the first scene, there are two arcs, which can be seen as a stick figure of a butterfly's wings. In the second scene, there are three dead yellow butterflies, and in the third scene, there are two eyes. The man in the fog realized that Jing Jiu had no intention of talking, and continued a little bored: You know, eyes are the pictures that often appear on butterfly wings.

Jing Jiu asked, What are the contents of the three actions?

The man in the fog said directly: In the military's top-secret files, there are only post-surveys and no content records, but according to my search, they are all very terrible things. The second operation even directly led to the destruction of a planet.

Jing Jiu asked, What does this have to do with the person I'm looking for?

There are very few people who are qualified to know this special department. I was also a child... I saw some records by chance. According to the records, this department has been disbanded, but I don't think so.

The man in the fog didn't know what he thought of, and said in a low voice: I think that butterfly has been flying among the stars.

Jing Jiu said, Evidence?

I have studied all the major incidents of the Starship Alliance in the past two hundred years, and about 11% of them have unexplained aspects. In those incidents, I saw traces of butterflies. I believe that organization has always existed, but I don't know if it is good or bad...

The man in the fog said: For example, during the alliance election 30 years ago, one of the most vocal committee members was quietly assassinated on the heavily guarded main planet. Another example is the war with the Sea of ​​Dark Things 70 years ago. The Stargate base fell, and hundreds of millions of people were about to die. Suddenly, a super-large electronic storm erupted in the stars of the galaxy, directly destroying the connections between the monsters of the Sea of ​​Dark Matter, allowing the people in the base of the Stargate base to survive. What exactly is that butterfly trying to do?

Jing Jiu said, Huh?

The man in the fog looked straight into his eyes and said, The image of that electronic storm is a pair of wings of a butterfly.

Jing Jiu said, You think too much.

This is an accurate judgment given by an astrophysicist.

The man in the fog said: If Chen Xin is an assassin, he could only be working for that butterfly.

Jing Jiu said: A dead man survives to become an assassin, according to the movies and novels, it is more likely the will of the alliance.

The man in the fog said: Trust me, it's not the alliance.

Jing Jiu said, So you suspect that he is related to that butterfly?

The man in the fog said: Otherwise, who else can hide the fact from the Alliance and let a military Star Warrior escape by feigning death?

No matter in the underground district, Xinshi College, or Shou Er City, Jing Jiu could feel that the Galaxy Alliance seemed loose, but in fact it had a strong control over all social classes. Those ubiquitous scans have almost completely blocked all criminal organizations across the galaxy, and the pictures in the movies and novels only exist in imagination.

So this inference seems to have some truth.

It's just that the overalls assassin didn't have any traces of butterflies on his body. Thinking of his weak cultivation, Jing Jiu wondered if he was a lower-level member of this organization.

Regardless of whether the man in the fog is correct or not, he provided accurate information about the man in the overalls, and also proposed a possible reference.

He said, The deal is done, what do you want?

The man in the fog stared at his face and said, I want to know who you are.

A few days ago in that room, when he asked for help from the most powerful cloud ghosts in the Galaxy Alliance, he promised to do one thing, although whether it can be done or not is ultimately up to him to judge. Who would have thought that the man in the fog would actually use this condition on him.

At this time, the ferris wheel had already turned a dozen times quickly and slowly, and the two of them talked face to face for a long time.

But they don't know what the other person looks like, and the voice is of course fake.

The man's technique was indeed very good, even too showy, the ferris wheel made a slight friction sound, making the room quieter.

The atmosphere became a little depressing. The man thought that Jing Jiu would definitely reject his request, and was about to taunt him a few words, but unexpectedly heard an unexpected answer.

I'm Jing Jiu. If Jing Jiu doesn't interfere with river water, nine times out of ten he won't do what he wants.

A certain person's after-sales service was very good. His fingers drew an image in the void and said, I look like this.

The atmosphere in the Ferris wheel suddenly turned cold.

If there is a so-called atmosphere in this world simulated by data.

The man in the fog looked at the portrait, and after a moment of silence asked, Why do you have such a weird name called Jing Jiu?

Jing Jiu said, The name hare is also very strange.

The atmosphere became colder.

Yes, he had already seen that the man in the fog was the hare he chased to the battleship.

It was really unexpected that it was this guy who had a grudge against him who was helping him to investigate with all his heart.

The hare sneered and said, My name means that even if the rabbit is in a hurry, it will bite.

...

...

The universe is darker outside the galaxies, and the countless stars in the distance seem to be forever inaccessible.

Looking back from the battleship, you can see the shape of the entire galaxy, like a toy in a child's hand.

The captain stood outside the locked captain's room, his face was extremely ugly, his hair was extremely messy, he waved away those subordinates, and helplessly shouted into the intercom: The battleship has been off the grid for more than ten minutes... What are you going to do!

No one answered his question, and he could only vaguely hear someone calling something like a liar inside.

The door of the captain's cabin slid open, and the voice became clearer: Liar! All men are liars!

The captain's face changed suddenly, and he rushed into the captain's room as fast as he could, locked the door behind him, came to the corner and asked, Bitter Winter! What happened?

A girl in military uniform is holding a computer, sitting in front of a red metal box, her face is flushed, and she is angry.

Her name is Ran Handong, and she is the computer maintenance officer on this frontline battleship.

Of course, she has technical ability and family background far beyond ordinary computer maintenance officers.

As for her family background, only three people in the entire fleet know.

Damn it! Ran Handong ignored the captain, looked at the perfect face on the computer, and said with a sneer, I helped you with good intentions, but you actually lied to me with a picture of the game!

The captain leaned over, looked at the face, and said slightly startled: Which company made this game? Thunder? Who is the original artist? It's really art!

Ran Handong was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and quickly operated his fingers on the computer, searching for the name of Jing Jiu.

Sure enough, he is a liar! The face is fake, and even the name is fake. Do you want face!

Looking at the search results on the light curtain, she almost cursed.

Those search results are all a novel called The Way to the Sky.

The more the captain listened, the more confused he became, and a little uneasy, wondering if the eldest lady is dating someone online? And was cheated?

I want to apply for leave!

Ran Handong stood up, stared into his eyes and said.

The captain thought to himself that you want to take a vacation, so I dare not approve, but there must be a reason. Does it mean that if you use the treatment of emotional injuries, if you want to pass it back to the main star, do you want to live?

I want to go back to the Stargate base.

Ran Handong turned around and looked at the stars in the dark universe, I have a distant cousin who is not in good health, and I want to visit her on behalf of my mother.

Knowing her family background, the captain naturally thought of who the distant cousin was, and his expression changed slightly.
