Bulwark of Light

Chapter 6 Chu Ling

“I’m back—”

Gu Shen pushed open the door and shouted softly.

The simple one-bedroom is empty, 30 to 40 square meters, with nothing but a desk and a bed. It is not an exaggeration to describe it with four walls.

The mottled rays of light in the bedroom flicker faintly.

Did you forget to turn off the holographic screen on the table when you left? Gu Shen startled.

“Meow—”

The usual response to him is a cat meow eagerly for food, but today’s response was slower and sounded much calmer than usual.

An orange cat, squatting in front of the holographic screen on the table, is staring at the door of the house.

This is a stray cat. Gu Shen just picked it up not long ago, and its name was Orange. After picking it up, I found out… This product is so edible, it is indeed a big orange, but it is not heavy.

How to increase, just eat without getting fat.

Too many things have happened today. It’s past two o’clock in the morning when I get home.

Gu Shen yawned, each minding their own business took out a large bag of cat food and poured it on a plate, “Orange, dinner is ready.”

No response.

Gu Shen was a little surprised that this silly cat didn’t come over immediately. He turned his back to the table, but did not see the orange cat on the table looking down condescendingly, with a faint glow in his eyes.

“Don’t eat? If you miss this village, you won’t have this shop.” Gu Shen turned his head back angrily.

“Meow!!!”

Accompanied by a sharp cat meow, the orange was shivered all over, the big dream woke up, the fluorescence in the eyes disappeared, the murderous-looking jumped off the table and buried his head Gorge oneself on a plate.

This food… Gu Shen looked a little disgusted.

The silly cat had enough to eat and drink, and swaggered to find a place to purr to sleep.

And Gu Shen was sitting in front of the holographic screen, wrapping his fingers with a tissue, cautiously taking out the ruler from the placket, looking at the silver ruler… He fell into thought.

This ruler does not seem to have the ability to corrode?

A-009 didn’t seem to be malicious when he handed this thing to himself?

Just this thing, what does it do?

After getting on the subway, the scene rewinds, freezes, and flashes back.

Gu Shen had too many doubts in his heart… He thought he could get some answers from the people in the interrogation room.

As a result…

I tried to make up stories on my own while drinking water, but the guy named “Wei Shu” remembered it very seriously… Obviously, the surveillance video of the carriage showed The problem is, those people simply don’t know what’s going on in the train!

What they saw was the normal line 13.

But the one I boarded at first was the old and mottled “Zero Zero One”.

“…that girl, and A-009, what the hell is going on…”

Gu Shen had no idea, rubbed his brows, and muttered to himself: “The old man said that the new era is coming soon…”

“The new era…the new era…”

Open the web page.

The holographic screen has the special effect of layers of waves sweeping and scouring.

In the year 638 of the new calendar, thanks to the supercomputer “Deep Sea” developed by “Alan Turing”, the five continents were closely linked by a virtual network. Enjoy a wealth of factual information and extremely fast super-intelligent services.

“There is so much noise tonight, there are no related posts…”

Gu Shen frowned, glanced at the temporary news, and felt that something was not right, he wanted to type on the keyboard , suddenly stopped.

The words of the old man in the car came to mind.

[“Someone has started to follow you now.”]

This sentence reminded Gu Shen.

“If someone is really following me…I have to be careful.”

Gu Shen knows very well that the search traces he left behind are likely to be tracked down by people with intentions clue.

A very soft “ding dong” sound.

Suddenly, a dialog box popped up on the computer screen.

“Congratulations.”

The dialog box shows that the other party is typing: “…that question, you answered correctly, very difficult to deal with.”

This is… Gu Shen was taken aback for a moment.

The other party’s avatar was blank, but the tone was obviously the girl in the white dress she met on the train.

Don’t worry about someone pretending… Gu Shen is sure that no third person knows about his encounter with the girl, not even the unfathomable “Mister Shu”.

Immediately click on the avatar frame, Gu Shen tries to find the other party’s information… But in the personal information and related fields, no matter how Gu Shen clicks, the display is blank.

This kind of blank is not not filled in, but not filled in at all… On the small information card, there is no name, gender, date of birth, hobby, signature, nothing.

Blank.

Only whitespace.

Even dead, as long as they were born, there is no such void.

Gu Shen has never seen such a situation. Every citizen of Wuzhou must take blood and record it in the deep-sea database. Only the real-name system can log in to the deep-sea network.

But everything on this card is blank…is there something wrong with the system?

It doesn’t matter anyway.

Gu Shen is thankful now… He is glad that he didn’t tell the truth in the interrogation room before. He knows the guys who drove aggressive helicopters to collect the body of A-009, and know that there are still girls like this. What crazy things can an unruly character do when he exists?

He didn’t want the girl to be imprisoned like A-009!

“Thank you.” Gu Shen replied politely, then asked eagerly, “I have some questions…for example, who are you?”

He has a wife So many questions to ask.

Who is the girl, what happened to that train, and A-009, and that newspaper… There are too many questions.

“My name is ‘Chu Ling’.” The girl seemed to have the ability to read minds, and Gu Shen replied instantly as soon as the message was sent: “…I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but not now At that time, the person who killed you is on the way.”

“??!”

A sentence is like a heavy hammer.

Gu Shen’s typing fingers hang over the projection keyboard, and his brain short-circuits for a moment.

“The current situation will be more dangerous. The communication will be blocked, the network will be cut off, and I will contact you in another way.”

He struggled to digest This large piece of information, Chu Ling’s last message in the dialog box, is still the sentence when the trains parted.

“Gu Shen, survive.”
