Mystery Comes to the Dragon Race

Chapter 414 The Truth About Utopia
……

Lu Mingfei was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect that he would meet the postman who gave him the monocle so soon.

The main reason is that the postman was too hasty when he left last time.

I just handed him a monocle, said a bunch of mysterious things, and then rode away, not knowing why he came to find me.

It's impossible to come here on purpose to amuse him because he saw himself strolling casually in the street.

And Lu Mingfei also felt that although the postman was weird and looked like a brat who needed to be beaten, he should know a lot of things.

After all, he himself said that his uncle is a resident of Utopia, and he might be able to find out some internal information.

But a thought here.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help frowning.

The terrifying picture seen in that single eye is still in his mind, lingering, as if reminding him that everything here is not what he sees on the surface.

Maybe this person was telling him something.

but……

Lu Mingfei preferred to believe that it was a prank.

Maybe it's just some tricks on the glasses, and then let the user see some special scenes.There is indeed such a special magic prop.

However, because the monocle was accidentally broken by him, Lu Mingfei had no way of confirming whether the eye had been tampered with afterwards.

Lu Mingfei was unwilling to believe it from the bottom of his heart.

Because everyone he met was so gentle.

The lady proprietress in the hotel took them in because of the storm. Mrs. Wendy in the bakery saw that she was pitiful and gave him a nice drink. Even the customers were very amiable. .

Everything seems so gentle.

But...what if?
The postman couldn't have handed him a monocle for no reason.

It can also be emphasized that don't wear this monocle in front of people in Utopia.Obviously, the other party must know some inside information, otherwise it would be impossible to warn him like that.

then……

I put on my monocle cheaply.

Lu Mingfei is still very dazed and confused until now, but fortunately, the culprit who caused all this is standing in front of him with a smile.

Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, staring at the smiling postman walking towards him: "Why did you leave in such a hurry this morning?"

"Because I'm afraid of being hunted down by the owner of the bicycle." The postman said these words without changing his face, "I told you before that my bicycle came out of someone else's house. I see, isn't it going to be bad luck?"

The postman's thick-skinned and indifferent attitude was really something that Lu Mingfei couldn't handle.He had never seen such a brazen person.

To be able to say the matter of stealing things is so natural.

Lu Mingfei really admired him.

"..." Lu Mingfei didn't know how to answer for a while, even the question he wanted to ask was suppressed, and a new question popped up: "Where is the bicycle you stole?"

"It was found back."

The postman was confident: "Riding that bicycle is too obvious. If you don't pay attention, you may expose your whereabouts. Then I dropped it at the door of someone's house and ran away."

"..."

Lu Ming stopped talking without hesitation.

It seems that it is useless to continue talking to this guy.

This guy doesn't seem to feel shameful about his stealing at all, but is proud of it.

For an instant.

Lu Mingfei even felt so, believing that the postman himself was a bit of a badass, maybe this unreliable guy was really fooling himself.

If he believed it so foolishly, wouldn't it appear that the cerebellum was hypoxic.

"You seem to have broken the monocle I gave you." Looking at Lu Mingfei who was about to bruise, the postman asked kindly first.

"I remember that I told you not to wear the glasses in front of Utopians? It seems that you still wear them..."

"Yes... that's right."

Only then did Lu Mingfei regain the topic he originally wanted to ask.

"What the hell is going on with that monocle?!"

"Oh, since you've already carried it, it doesn't matter if I tell you." The postman smiled mysteriously, "Obviously, you seem to have seen the other side of utopia in it. Tell me, what exactly did you see?"

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, staring fixedly at the postman in front of him, as if trying to catch some clues from the other's expression.But it's a pity that this guy's expression was so cheerful and frivolous from the beginning to the end, and he couldn't see any changes.

"I saw a lot of thin black lines, and those lines diffused from everyone's body, spreading to infinity..." Lu Mingfei's voice paused slightly, thinking of Mrs. Wendy's terrifying face , gritted his teeth, and finally continued, "I also saw...the originally kind and kind old lady, as well as the gentleman's customers, all turned into hideous and terrifying monsters..."

Lu Mingfei's voice trembled a little. Obviously, he didn't believe what he saw at that time, and he didn't believe that those people he came into contact with were monsters.

Obviously they have their own life trajectory, have their own warm family, they will care about little things, and they will also enjoy those delicacies and all the good things in life.

How could it be possible for a normal human being to be a monster?
Until now, Lu Mingfei still does not believe that what he saw is real.

"I didn't expect you to see so much from that spectacles." The postman squeezed his monocle frame with a smile, "I thought you would faint from the stimulation when you saw some black lines. After all, there are some things that cannot be observed. If the level of life is not enough, if you look directly at it rashly, you may have a mental breakdown, or even become such a monster."

"But it seems that your mental defense is still very strong. You have seen that part of the truth and have not lost control. It seems that you are not an ordinary person."

The postman praised him without hesitation.

"It's no wonder you were pulled into this utopia. I originally thought that among the four people who came here, you were just a random one."

Lu Mingfei frowned tightly, and asked sharply: "What do you mean? Are you deliberately approaching us? Also, that monocle..."

"It's not interesting." Amon interrupted Lu Mingfei's words with a smile, "When you came here, the movement was too obvious. Four people who don't belong here suddenly came to Utopia. Like a big light bulb in the dark, how can it go unnoticed?"

"I am also a person who does not belong here. I found you only to find people with the same goal. I know that you want to leave this utopia, and I came here to help you for this reason. I will give you the bill The glasses are also for you to better see the truth here, but I didn't expect you to come into contact with those truths so early."

The postman sighed slightly, and said slowly: "I admit that I didn't explain it clearly to you in advance, but there are some things that cannot be said directly. You should pay attention to my warning."

But actually, he did it on purpose.

Humans are really easy to cheat sometimes.It’s okay if you don’t emphasize it specifically, but sometimes the more you emphasize it, the stronger your rebellious heart will be.

The more they emphasize what they cannot touch, the more curious they will be, until the desire for curiosity overshadows those warnings that have no deterrent effect.

This is why he deliberately emphasized not to wear glasses in front of utopians.

This is deliberately guiding Lu Mingfei to put on those little glasses.

Lu Mingfei's control over people's psychology is completely different from that of the other party.

He was still wondering why the other party wanted to help him.

"Didn't you say that your uncle is also a resident of this utopia? Logically speaking, you shouldn't be on our side." Lu Mingfei questioned.

He could feel the badness of the guy in front of him.

Who knows why this guy deliberately approached them?
The postman raised his eyebrows slightly, then sighed deeply, showing a trace of pain.

"Don't you understand? After you have seen the truth of this place?"

"This..." Lu Mingfei blinked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"What do you think those black lines you see represent?" The postman's expression was serious, and even his tone was not as light and lively as before, "Those black lines are far more terrifying than you imagined. That is the spirit thread that controls every resident in Utopia, you can also call it the puppet thread."

After Lu Mingfei heard these words, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

If the term "thread of the spirit body" still doesn't make sense, but after hearing the word "thread of puppet", Lu Mingfei instantly realized something.

"You mean, all the residents in the entire Utopia are puppets controlled by that weird puppet before?!" Lu Mingfei shouted loudly, his expression extremely shocked.

He felt that his worldview had been subverted.

On the surface, this seemingly harmonious and warm city is simply an ideal city, Utopia, and the harmonious and friendly residents in it are all puppets controlled by those black threads? !

Such facts simply overturned Lu Mingfei's imagination.

This also means...

That Mrs. Wendy who greeted her with a smile and asked him if he would like a cup of sweet iced tea with concern... was a manipulated puppet.

Those customers who come to buy bread in the bakery are also manipulated puppets...

The marching band on the street, the pedestrians surrounding the band, the proprietress who kindly took them in, and even the children playing on both sides of the street were all being manipulated...

The entire Utopia is like a large-scale puppet show stage. Every resident inside is a puppet being manipulated. They are controlled by those black lines according to their own character settings, and stage the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of all living beings...

Lu Mingfei felt a biting chill hit his heart, and an indescribable fear occupied his mind. He couldn't even imagine how such a terrible thing was done.

Lingling...?
No, it's impossible, he has never heard of such a powerful speech spirit.There is no record in the periodic table of speech spirits at all, and even the Dragon King does not have such a terrifying speech spirit.

Lu Mingfei finally understood what the oldest and deepest fear is, the fear of the unknown...

He felt a deep sense of absurdity.

"Impossible...this is a lie!" Lu Mingfei stared at the postman in disbelief, "Those people are obviously normal people, and they are obviously no different from the human beings in the outside world! "

"No matter what you say, the truth can never be changed." The postman shrugged nonchalantly, "You can choose to believe it, or you can choose not to believe it. It is up to you to decide whether to cover your eyes or not."

"If you can, you can also choose to leave here immediately and stay away from Utopia. In that case, you don't have to be troubled by these things."

The postman's tone was full of melancholy: "After all, I can't stop you. When people encounter the unknown, it is indeed the best choice to escape. No one will blame you, you are just protecting yourself."

"However, now that you have stepped into this vortex, it is not up to you to decide whether you can leave. Even if your spirit body is not controlled by that person and has not become a puppet, but still There will be a pair of invisible hands manipulating you. Do you think that if you accidentally came here, you can really get out of your body?"

"..."

Lu Mingfei fell silent.

Just like the postman said, he can treat everything as if he didn't see it at all, just treat it as an illusion, and then work in Mrs. Wendy's bakery with peace of mind to earn some living expenses, and then wait for the arrival of the ship and then leave.

This does sound like a perfect option.

Everything in Utopia has nothing to do with him, he can also choose to know nothing and cover his eyes.

but……

It just sounds good.

First of all, they can't even leave here now. They are penniless, and they don't even have money for food, so they can only go out to work.They have truly entered utopia.

Lu Mingfei has never seen someone who entered the big boss's lair and was able to escape unscathed.

Plus……

He has now seen the other side of this beautiful utopia, the other side full of weirdness and horror.

How could he feel at ease and treat this place as an ordinary city?

"I..." Lu Mingfei looked at the postman seriously.

"So what's next?"
