End of Mystery

Chapter 9 The Mysterious Source

Xiao Xiao was thinking about all this, and when he was lying on the bed numbly, Yang Jia, who had just returned home, was sitting silently on the sofa with a lingering solemn expression.

After hesitating again and again, she still made a call.

The signal came to the very center of the city in a lightning-fast way, where there was the tallest building in the whole city, with more than one hundred floors, but without any billboards or decorations.

And on the top floor, it was quiet, there was no one there, only sophisticated instruments, and dazzling wiring, which were closely connected in a glass tank in the middle.

In the glass tank, in the dark green liquid, is a brain, a human brain, without any protection, only connected to it with many circuits.

Yang Jia's call was picked up by an instrument outside the glass tank, her voice echoed in this room with only cold machines, complicated wiring, and a brain:

"I met that newcomer today and helped him see the truth of this world..."

"..."

The cold electronic voice unexpectedly had a hint of gentleness: "I don't know whether to be thankful that we have another companion, or sympathize with another person who has fallen into a nightmare!"

"This newcomer is very strange."

Yang Jia slowly kneaded her temples, and said softly: "He is calm, decisive, has strong analytical skills and the courage to fight against malice, but he is not ruthless."

"It can be said that after so many years in a foreign land, this is the first time I have seen such a potential guy."

"But at the same time, there are some things in him that I can't see through."

"..."

After a pause, she said softly: "Obviously what he did was very reasonable in retrospect, but it always makes people feel surprised."

"So, I hope you can investigate him."

"..."

The gentle electronic voice was silent for a while, and said, "I'll try."

Yang Jia said softly, "Thank you."

Then he stopped talking and just waited patiently.

In a room full of machinery and complex circuits, the quiet part of the brain seemed to vibrate slightly on the surface, entwined with tiny electric sparks. These weak electric sparks sparked intense tension among the surrounding machinery. Even some cables churned up like pythons, countless screens were filled with garbled characters, and the huge server was in a form of overload, running crazily.

There seemed to be some sort of microwave, starting to stir the city.

The huge and majestic city foundation is vibrating in a way that ordinary people can't detect, sending out weird signals, intertwined into a scattered network.

Yang Jia could also feel this vibration. She held the phone, motionless, and waited patiently.

After a long time, the vibration disappeared, and a gentle electronic tone rang on the other end of the phone:

"I have accessed all his information in this city, and it went smoothly, and there is no trace of being blocked or tampered with."

"Judging from this information, he should not have intersected with this world as a foreigner, nor does he seem to be remotely replaced or controlled by some kind of will."

"So, my answer is, at least on the surface, he is a newcomer who just woke up."

"but……"

The voice paused for a while, and the machine made a faint roar of high-speed operation before saying: "Four years ago, he was troubled by a strong mental illness and went to the hospital for an examination."

"four years ago?"

Yang Jia frowned and said, "What symptoms?"

"According to his self-described dizziness, headache, auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, sensory disturbances, intense depression and great depression..."

"...But the final inspection results showed that everything was normal."

"..."

Yang Jia's expression suddenly became serious, and she sat up straight: "It seems to be in a daze affected by a mysterious source."

"Yes."

There is no syllable-syllable answer in the electronic voice: "Those mysterious sources peeping at the city will indeed capture certain individual wills in the city through the influence across space for some reason."

"But he is different. You and I both understand that no individual can maintain the integrity and rationality of his self-form under the influence of a mysterious source."

"..."

Yang Jia, who was nervous, frowned even tighter, but her tense muscles were slowly relaxing: "Yes..."

"If he was really influenced by a mysterious source, a person who has been influenced for four years..."

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but smile wryly, and said, "Don't talk about whether there will be distortion or not, the painful substances in his body may flood the entire city, right?"

"..."

"There's no way that's going to happen."

The electronic voice also expressed his own conclusion: "So, I think he is a clean individual."

"Judging from the young people in this city, his level of isolation and residence is not an exception, and there are even many."

"Often, people just think it's depraved."

"most……"

Speaking of this, even the extremely rational and stable electronic voice was a little bit stuck, and he chose a rather humane vocabulary:

"A little sick?"

"..."

Yang Jia nodded, her expression was a little sad in the mist, and after a long time, she whispered: "In any case, his potential is huge, and we have no other choice..."

"I just hope that when he understands the truth in the future, he won't blame me..."

"..."

The next day, Xiao Xiao woke up very early.

He didn't know why, but he slept surprisingly peacefully yesterday.

In the previous four years, he had frequent headaches, and his whole head seemed to be soaked in pain and fear all year round. But yesterday, he learned the truth of this world, and his fear reached its limit.

But under such circumstances, he suddenly calmed down, as if he had the courage to face it calmly.

At this time, my mother has also got up and is making breakfast in the kitchen.

Xiao Xiao didn't want to meet her, so even if he woke up, he just sat on the bed and waited for the movement in the living room to disappear.

At about 8:30, there was a sound outside that the courtyard door opened and closed. Mom had already gone to work, so Xiao Xiao walked out of the room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in the living room, he saw the food left on the table, as well as the notes and banknotes pressed under a carton of milk.

"Boy, I'm off to work."

"There is no one who doesn't need money to talk to. Don't be too stingy when dating such a beautiful girl."

"..."

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment.

She misunderstood the relationship between herself and Yang Jia, and she also considered that she had no money since she hadn't gone to work, so she gave herself pocket money?

A strange feeling rose from the bottom of my heart.

What's this?

After signing the contract with the city, the city, and the people living in the city, began to show kindness to themselves?

Or, the feelings expressed by the mother herself?

Just now, he felt that there would be no surprises anymore, but this note and the two banknotes made him feel complicated.

After a long silence, he sat down, ate his breakfast, and put away the note and pocket money.

After breakfast, I just sat quietly at home. Now I was ready to face everything, but unexpectedly found that there seemed to be nothing urgent for me to face.

Yang Jia didn't say much yesterday, but just showed herself the truth about the city.

She said that there will be a special person to guide her, but who is this person and what should she do?

While thinking about this question, the phone rang in due course.

"How did you sleep last night?"

Yang Jia's voice still seemed so calm, with a little bit of laziness, as if she didn't fit in with this world.

Xiao Xiao replied honestly: "Very good, very down-to-earth."

"very good?"

Yang Jia was somewhat surprised. After realizing the truth of this world, the newcomers were in panic all day long. Some called themselves all night, and some committed suicide that night.

Xiao Xiao's answer was actually "very good"?

"right."

Xiao Xiao replied softly: "Didn't you tell me? In such a city full of monsters, what else can I do but feel at ease?"

Yang Jia didn't know what to say, after a while, she smiled and said: "You are really a very persuasive person."

Facing these words, Xiao Xiao didn't know how to answer them.

It was Yang Jia who heard his silence and said with a smile, "Since you are ready to face all this, it's time for the next step."

Xiao Xiao moved slightly, and said, "What do you mean by the next step?"

"We are so weak, of course we need to find something to protect ourselves."

Yang Jia's voice seemed a little mysterious, and said: "This is a very complicated problem, but don't worry, I have found an experienced designer to help you."

"Be polite to her, she is a very good and quiet girl."

"..."

"OK."

Xiao Xiao agreed, thinking about the person Yang Jia was going to introduce, he felt a faint expectation.

After waiting for a while, he heard the notification tone of the mobile phone. Yang Jia really pushed a contact information, but Xiao Xiao was stunned when he saw it. The profile picture was a cute girl in a maid outfit.

And the nickname is: [old aunt eighteen sitting on the ground and sucking soil]

"This quiet girl's nickname is somewhat wild?"
