Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1634: Disposal
When Xie Feng was sick, she was lying on the bed doing nothing. She considered the short film and Dong Luorong's story at least a dozen times in her mind. This was the conclusion she felt was the most likely.
That was the last message Lanlingte sent on behalf of Morning Star, and it was related to the life and death of the human race.
At that moment, the resources and rules restrictions on interstellar communication no longer existed. If the size of one line is too large, send a few more. Even if it reaches the noon star intermittently, at least they express complete information.
If the message received by the Empire was indeed more than these ten minutes, and was edited and spliced from more materials... Xie Feng found that he was not surprised. This seemed like something the Empire would do.
It's just that she didn't expect that as soon as she said these words, Qiu Changtian's face changed, as if he had been stabbed with a knife, and his whole person was about to jump out of the rope **** - he had always been He didn't panic, his sudden change of color was seen by everyone, even Acheng couldn't help but stood up suddenly, his face turned pale for a moment.
Everyone couldn't help but take a step or two forward.
"...Have you really edited it?" Hairband asked word by word.
"No," Qiu Changtian said like spitting out nails. Perhaps he also realized that his words were unconvincing, so he gritted his teeth and thought for a moment, then added: "It's really not true, I've never heard of such rumors! The short films our superiors showed us are the same as the short films you watched. , Otherwise, how can I carry out my work if I don’t understand the real situation?”
The room was quiet for a while.
"What's more, I have made great progress in preventing evolvers. I did find that some people are much stronger than before..."
The more silent they become, the more Qiu Changtian becomes unwilling to be silent - or dare not be silent, and keeps filling the void in the room with sound. "They have not exercised systematically. How do you explain their increased physical fitness? It is because they are in the earliest stages of evolution. If they are left alone, they will destroy your City of Tears in the future..."
He also remembered to use offense as defense: "How could you ask such a ridiculous question? Where did you get the conspiracy theory? Do you have any evidence?"
Xie Feng sat on the stairs as he was, without moving or speaking.
"Everyone must be more emotional at that time, especially Lan Lingte, who is a woman. When speaking in the video, there may be situations where the logic is not connected, the organization is unclear, and the speech is incomplete." Qiu Changtian He said almost earnestly, "If you have any questions about the video, I can answer them for you."
The more he explained, the more she understood the truth.
Xie Feng suddenly pulled up the scarf covering his face and covered his entire face tightly.
She closed her eyes tightly, her hot tears quickly soaked into the fabric, and she was soon out of breath. Xie Feng's sobs echoed intermittently in the cabin.
The darkness covered by a hand and a piece of cloth was her only refuge. She didn't want to cry in front of Qiu Changtian, but she couldn't bear it anymore.
...What is this?
The two years of struggle, displacement, estrangement from family, hesitation and anxiety in the middle of the night, and the lingering guilt and pain, all turned out to be meaningless and wasted.
Under the overpass, in the capsule hotel, and in the street fast food restaurant, the issue that caused her and her friends to argue, discuss and grieve repeatedly - even if the city of tears regains its autonomy, how should we face the Evolutionary - It turned out to be a fictitious concept at all.
The City of Tears did not have to go through this, and they did not have to live on the streets. Their lives were supposed to continue as normal. She would go to school, go shopping, and watch movies without worrying about being paired up with someone from the Empire. But the empire doesn't care. If it's to expand a territory, the people and their lives on that land can be abandoned. Perhaps the City of Tears is just their first stop. There are several other countries on the Noon Star, and their plans are grand and broad.
But her life can never come back.
"You are lying," Xie Feng said with a very heavy nasal voice and twitching. "You always like to lie. But I didn't expect that...it turned out to be such a big lie."
Acheng finally spoke and said quietly: "It's just because it's so big that ordinary people wouldn't think it was a lie."
Qiu Changtian stopped talking and looked at them coldly.
"Wait a minute, I, I still don't understand..." Black Dog asked blankly, obviously feeling the weight of the event, and said with a pale face: "Is the end of the world a lie?"
"No, I'm afraid Neighbor Star has indeed suffered its doom. But only they know the specific situation." Acheng looked at the autumn sky and said slowly: "Don't scare us and say that the evolvers will follow us. We need their help to maintain security. How can we hand over our country to them?"
Duan Zai murmured and asked: "Then... what is the reason why the neighboring star was destroyed?"
This question may need to be answered starting from who "Lan Lingte" is. But looking at Qiu Changtian's appearance, he would never reveal the news easily.
"I know, he is very afraid of death." Xie Feng regained his composure after crying quietly. "People like him who are obsessed with power and status are very afraid of death. To be an imperial official, you must first be a living person."
Qiu Changtian pursed his lips - even when he was shaken and frightened, he seemed to have an awe-inspiring and upright face, and he really wanted to praise the empire for its ability to select talents. "Empire..."
"I know that the empire will retaliate." Xie Feng cried until he had no strength left, and said softly: "But maybe revenge is a good thing."
"How do you say it?" Acheng asked immediately and cooperatively.
"Now that the people of the City of Tears are split into two factions, there is such chaos," Xie Feng said almost numbly, "But when the empire prepares to take revenge on the City of Tears, everyone will unite into one faction again. ."
Although it sounds like this, in fact it is not that simple - for example, how many people will be imprisoned in vain? How to resist the divisive strategy of pulling together one faction and attacking another? If the empire does not use force, but retaliates softly through society, how can it resist it?
However, Xie Feng knew very well that there was no need for her to think in such detail: she only needed to make Qiu Changtian believe that the impulsive young people in their profession truly believed so, and that his life was indeed in danger. enough.
Acheng was indeed the brains in the action plan, and he immediately understood what she meant. The other people were a little confused at first, but after Acheng's repeated encouragement several times, everyone gradually agreed - the more consensus they achieved, the uglier Qiu Changtian's complexion became.
"Either answer the question or kill me," Acheng shrugged and said, "Now it seems that neither one is bad for us..."
"Wait a minute, I didn't lie. I don't know many things." Qiu Changtian interrupted him rather urgently.
"Then what do you know?" Xie Feng asked immediately, "Who is Lan Lingte? What is her position?"
At the same time, Acheng also asked: "Is it true or false that there will be evolvers among us?"
Qiu Changtian subconsciously turned to Acheng first and replied to him: "It is true. The end of the world will appear together with the evolvers. I guarantee this with all my wealth and life."
"Then why was Neighbor Star destroyed?" Duan Zai asked again.
Qiu Changtian turned his gaze to Danzai and said, "Maybe you don't believe me when I say it, but I really don't know. I only know that evolvers are a phenomenon produced by the end of the world, destroying neighboring countries. The star should not be an evolver, but the evolver can still cause us a lot of chaos and crisis. As for what caused the end of the world on the neighboring star, I am not high enough to know."
It sounds like the truth.
"In other words, the Empire has no legitimate reason to accept the City of Tears, and the City of Tears has no legitimate reason to submit to the Empire." Acheng whispered, "...Ah, I know what to do with you. ."
Xie Feng, who originally wanted to wait for everyone to finish asking the question and then repeat it himself, was shocked when he heard this. Not just her, everyone's eyes were on Acheng.
"The current factual context is that the empire received news about Neighbor Star, but edited the video to make people think that Neighbor Star was destroyed by the evolvers, and the evolvers are very likely to destroy it next. appeared on our planet." Acheng concluded, "Using this as an excuse, you reached an agreement with our chief executive. As for what benefits he got - he got benefits, right?"
Qiu Changtian nodded stiffly.
"Ha. As for what benefits he gained, it doesn't matter, because he did use this wave of man-made crises to hand over our country to others. Am I right?"
Qiu Changtian felt as if he had a toothache, and said with a cold breath: "No one will believe what you say, and I advise you not to say it outside. ~IndoMTL.com~ This matter is a major secret and can be easily leaked. You Will be regarded as the highest priority enemy by the empire..."
Acheng smiled.
"Thank you for your concern. I also know that the stakes are high and I dare not say nonsense." He said slowly, "So, I won't say anything anymore and let you speak. As the actual manager of the City of Tears, you Man, don’t your words have more weight?”
Qiu Changtian stared at him as if Acheng had just asked his mother to be sacrificed.
"What...what?"
Acheng seemed to have pondered the idea in his mind over and over again. "We won't kill you, we won't beat you, and we are even willing to put you back properly. As long as there is one thing, you must tell the truth about the empire's conspiracy and the end of the world in detail and completely in front of the camera. You If you don’t want to do it, it’s easy to do, because there is the sea outside.”
"Don't--don't be joking, then I'm doomed!" Qiu Changtian's face suddenly flushed, and he couldn't control himself anymore, and he shouted angrily. "I will be arrested and sentenced immediately. Once inside, do you think the end will be worse than sinking into the sea?"
"I won't force you to go to a dead end," Acheng said slowly. "After I shoot your confession video, I will give you two days to escape before uploading the video. Of course, you will not be as comfortable as you are now after you get out. , but you survived and still have personal freedom, which is already luckier than most of our brothers and sisters who were arrested."
"Stop joking, stop joking..." Qiu Changtian said these words over and over again, his eyes almost popping out of his sockets, as if he had stopped thinking.
Xie Feng felt chills all over.
After filming the video, did you go back to Qiu Changtian?
Then...what about Dongluorong? Qiu Changtian's official career has collapsed. As a lucky charm... can she still have a way to survive?
