Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 25 Thorns
As soon as Shi Yulian walked out of the room, he closed the door behind his back.A tall man in a mask was waiting for him outside the door.

The masked man said in a strange voice, "You're so gentle, Shigure."

Shi Yulian didn't respond to this comment, but just stated his results.

"After deleting the memory, I asked a similar question. After repeating this several times, the answer I got was basically the same as the value detected by the machine. If you don't consider that there is an impermanence that is stronger than me that has exerted influence, it should be considered that they have an impact on Know nothing about it.”

Just like everyday chatting, Shi Yulian spoke the facts in the same tone as usual, enough to make people sweat coldly behind their backs.

The conversation between the two in the room just now is not the first time it has been staged.

Takizawa's fear, anger, mourning, and confession have all been repeated several times.

The thing to do is simple.

Erase the other party's memory after questioning.Then, he walked into the room pretending to be meeting for the first time.Change the way of asking questions, observe his reaction, and collect another batch of data for comparison, so as to confirm the words just now.

In order to ensure authenticity, in order to prevent the other party from searching for intentions and thinking about lies during the long interrogation, in order to prevent him from collapsing prematurely under too much pressure, he keeps repeating.

Takizawa Yoshihisa doesn't know anything about it, and every time he behaves, it is true.

However, even if the person involved has no subjective cognition, in the eyes of others, the feeling brought by the same play performed again and again will fade away.Witnessing mechanically repeating actions in reality, are you looking at a person who knows nothing, or a puppet manipulated by invisible threads... No matter which direction you think about, the answer you get will not be pleasant. .

"Pull it down, even if the World Creation Envoy wants to make trouble, he won't work hard on the miscellaneous fish. This way things will be simple!"

Fortunately, the masked man never cared about these little things.Other people's opinions and thoughts have never been meaningful to this person, and spending time thinking about what to have for supper tonight is much more meaningful than thinking about those.

Shi Yulian thought for a moment and asked, "About Gongsun's ability..."

Before he finished speaking, the masked man interrupted with a sneer: "None of my business? If you want to know, ask him yourself. Let's go, and I'm going to settle this matter tonight."

The masked man strode away, Shi Yulian followed with a wry smile.

"Are you going to decide the outcome tonight?"

"Just today, just tonight, finish early so I can go back to sleep."

"You sound tired."

"Nonsense. The two things were squeezed into one day, and I had to go to heaven to talk to the emperor early in the morning. It took most of the day just to go back and forth, and I didn't even have to take a nap! What's wrong with the world."

The masked man left cursing, Shi Yulian followed behind, and ignored his complaints.

They went outside, and a girl also wearing a mask was waiting for them.The masked woman stretched out both hands, using the toes of one foot to maintain balance, bouncing up and down by the flower bed, and when she saw Shi Yulian came, she asked, "Is Shi Yu-jun here to work too?"

"This gentleman doesn't seem to want to give me a salary. It would be more appropriate to call it extracurricular practice."

"I should have it. Speaking of which, how is my hourly salary calculated?"

The masked man yelled angrily: "You talk back to the boss, kick the boss on the back, fight alone and can't even take down an idiot, so you still have the nerve to ask for a salary?! Get out!"

"It's too much."

When Shi Yulian looked at the mask, he thought of her usual performance and couldn't help laughing.

·
At 8:35 at night, outside the sewage treatment plant.

"You call this maximum assistance?! Your obstinacy will shame the cross on your chest!"

Alice Adar's lingua franca pronunciation was more standard than that of ordinary citizens in the kingdom's capital, and she couldn't hear any slang or common names in her speech. Unfortunately, no matter how elegant her tone was, she couldn't conceal the anger of the speaker herself. At this moment, Miss Alice looked exactly like To fry.

Gongsun Ce understands the other party's mood too well, the kingdom official is such a group of bureaucrats who don't know what they mean.When he deduced that the target of the dragon lunatics was underground, Alice immediately reported to the official and requested intelligence support.Judging from her current performance, the official support may not be very strong.

"It doesn't look good."

Alice hung up the phone, gritted her teeth and said, "I don't have enough authority, I need to ask my superiors for instructions, and I will inform you of the result after discussing the decision... It's this time, and noble gentlemen can still say such things!"

Gongsun Ce covered his face and sighed: "The Kingdom sitcom is really based on reality..."

"The bureaucrats look like this, it's the same in any country." Alice said anxiously, "In the end, they just told me that if we'd strayed into some areas due to force majeure', the kingdom would 'trust the frontline personnel Self-judgment, in order to avoid unforeseen accidents that may be caused by the intervention of third-party personnel, we will not send rescue for the time being."

Gongsun Ce waved his hands again and again: "Understood, we will find a way to go down on our own, and we will make an allowance for it. There is no official support at all."

Alice shook her poor follower vigorously: "Is this the time to speak sarcasm?! The leaders of the dragon lunatics have gone deep into the ground, who knows what they want to do!"

Mr. Gongsun can understand your anxiety.But at least don't treat a harmless esper like this, his glasses are almost shaken off by you.

Gongsun Ce said word by word: "You, first, don't be in a hurry."

As if finally realizing her gaffe, Alice let go of her hand quickly.

"excuse me, I……"

"I understand, I understand. I'm also thinking about the ridiculous possibility of what to do if the dragon of the sky is resurrected, but it's useless to be anxious now." Gongsun Ce patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly, "I Call Mo Yuankai and ask him if he has gone underground to inform, if we don’t even have him, we will go to the previous imperial experts to cooperate with us, what do you think?”

"Oh, good." Alice nodded subconsciously, and then said suspiciously, "Why are you so... calm all of a sudden?"

"Anyway, we are fighting alone." Gongsun Ce scratched his head, "Although the two masked guys seem unreliable to compete with each other, they should be very strong... even if we fail, they will make up for it." Come on, I feel a lot more at ease when I think of this."

This is not a lie.

Alice curled her lips: "You trust the official..."

"It's better if the dragon summoning method is used as a strategic deterrent by the official people, than being held in the hands of a lunatic."

Gongsun Ce smiled and called the intelligence dealer.

"Hey, Akai. I defeated Yoshihisa Takizawa, and I deduce that their leader has gone underground. Do you know of any way to go underground?"

Mo Yuankai was crunching potato chips on the opposite side of the phone: "Underground?"

"Dragon belly." Gongsun Ce said concisely.

"Oh. I know." Mo Yuankai's voice reassured him, but the information dealer's next sentence almost made him stumble, "Isn't it right next to your house?"

"Hey, are you serious? I have lived in the Thorn District for many years, and this is the first time I know that there is a passage to the ground near my house."

The intelligence dealer replied with a smile: "Ah Ce, you also have rough nerves. Have you ever wondered what are those giant white towers called thorns near your house that come from?"

Gongsun Ce was at a loss for words for a moment: "...Isn't it the thorn on the back of the dragon of the sky?"
