Overturned Tower

Vol 2 Chapter 9: peter pan

After signing for "Winter", Russell went with the inferior to hand over the signed extension document to Peter Pan.

As the saying goes, there may be a wrong name, but there is no wrong code name.

The person in charge of the reconstruction agency code-named "Peter Pan" looks even younger than Russell.

His limbs are unusually slender, even slender to a somewhat morbid level.

And between his elbow and ribs, there was a layer of flying membranes—only from this feature, Russell could judge the other party's relatives.

There is no doubt that it should be some kind of animal of the flying squirrel family.

Another name for the flying squirrel is the flying squirrel. It is a small animal that can glide and fly in the forest and looks like a squirrel.

"Put the file there and I'll look at it."

Peter Pan wore a gaming goggle that looked like an eye protector, lay on his back on the massage chair, and said casually, "And then, Shabby?

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

"I still have to get two original copies of the chip and approve it for me."

The inferior looked at the documents on Peter Pan's desk without changing his face, and said unceremoniously: "I want the original chips of 'Blind Snake' and 'Winter'...well, the ones that can be copied fifty times are fine."

"Fifty times?"

Peter Pan pulled off the blindfold: "You're thinking fart, the original that can be reproduced fifty times is already scheduled for next year!

"I mean, you haven't been back in over a year—any excuses?"

That moment.

Russell clearly felt a strong sense of crisis.

It seems that the surrounding space is distorted...

It's like being drunk, standing up straight and looking around. It seems that every space is bulging inwards and then expanding outwards, and the whole world seems to be hit by a transparent water ball. An inexplicable sense of dizziness made Russell subconsciously stretch his hand into his arms.

The inferior suddenly put his hand on Russell's shoulder, signaling him to calm down.

But he said mercilessly: "Because the existing chips have not been used up, and there are no new chips to apply for, of course I don't need to come back.

"You don't think I have to stay here with you, do you?"

"...can't you?"

Peter Pan, who was originally fierce, suddenly had red eyes and burst into tears: "I want you to stay here and play with me..."

When he cried out, the distorted sense of space dissipated immediately.

Russell suddenly felt a strange sense of psychological discomfort.

You know, Peter Pan was the person in charge of the Reconstruction Agency when the bad guy was only six or seven years old. At that time, he couldn't be a minor.

Up to now, twenty years have passed...but Peter Pan still lives here.

Although he looked like he was only eight or nine years old, like a thin boy in the second or third grade of elementary school—the age that dogs would hate.

But his real age should be at least thirty or forty years old.

It is strange to say that on the surface, he is a mentor in his early twenties, and his real age is six hundred years old, but Russell doesn't feel anything; but Peter Pan, who looks only seven or eight years old, is only 30 to 40 years old in real age, and even Russell felt a little uncomfortable for less than a fraction of Sally Ruth...

And the inferior ones are not moved by this.

He just reiterated coldly: "Take two original copies of the chip and approve it for me. If not fifty times, ten times will do. I got permission from the board of directors to execute your order. If you want me to Stay here and go to the board of directors to submit a request."

In the end, Peter Pan opened the drawer with a pouty mouth and a stinky face, and handed over the original chip that he had prepared before to the inferior.

Russell still wanted to calm down the opponent, but before he could open his mouth, the inferior man yanked his arm violently.

So Russell immediately shut his mouth knowingly, and left with him.

It wasn't until they had left the reengineering institution that the inferior said, "Don't get involved with Peter Pan."

"Is he a madman?"

Russell probably guessed.

The inferior added: "To be precise, he is a mental patient.

"The tricky thing is that he's also a psyker...his psychic power involves time. That's why he can never grow up, never age."

"Psychic energy of the time system..."

Russell frowned: "But why is he here?"

—Peter Pan spent twenty years at Reconstruction, probably more.

In a sense, Peter Pan himself is also a prisoner imprisoned here.

The only difference is that the devil has a time to die, but he has to live here forever... If Peter Pan's spiritual power can really make him immortal, I'm afraid this sentence is "forever".

"Because he too is a sinner."

The inferior replied: "A serial murderer who killed more than ten children."

"…what?"

"Have you ever heard the fairy tale of Peter Pan?"

"Ah...Peter Pan who will never grow up?"

Russell's expression became a little subtle.

He had roughly heard the fairy tale.

He is in another world and has even seen a film adaptation of this fairy tale.

This world has the same fairy tales...just slightly different in the details.

In other words, the story of "Peter Pan" is closer to the original novel.

"What version of the story did you hear?"

The inferior asked back.

Russell thought about it for a while: "That's what my mother told me when I was young.

"Roughly speaking, it's a story about a giant flying baby who will never grow up, and tricks other people's children to take risks on the 'Never Island'. It's also about fighting fierce beasts, and forming an air pirate group They robbed houses and houses, and in the end they took the treasures of the thieves, defeated the robots that looked like thieves, and so on.”

"Then I'm going to tell you, this isn't actually a fairy tale. It's a true story."

The inferior said, and got on the floating car parked outside.

He patted the seat next to him and motioned for Russell to sit in the front row. In this way, he can tell stories conveniently without looking back.

...Speaking of which, has the relationship between them become less cold?

Russell thought so, and sat in the co-pilot's seat.

"Have you ever wondered why this fairy tale character... is called Peter Pan?"

"why?"

"Because that's his name."

The inferior replied: "It's not a code name, his name is Peter Pan."

He then told another version of the story:

Peter Pan was a bestselling author. He was the last user of the first batch of chips, and the second batch of chips became available after he was born.

He wrote many fairy tales for children throughout his life, and those stories have been passed down to modern times. But people didn't even know who the author was ~www.readwn.com~ until one day, his inspiration was exhausted. "

"He got Calvin?"

"No."

The underdog knows the meaning of this word by accident.

But he denied it: "It was because he received a letter... It may be hard for you to imagine that there were paper letters in that era.

"It was a letter sent to him by a young reader. It was a sharp criticism written in a child's handwriting, claiming that the child in one of his highly rated fairy tale books at the time was 'not like a child at all', but just 'with a child' Of course, we later learned that this was a conspiracy played by colleagues who were jealous of his talent. The purpose was to influence his creative state so that he would not have time to participate in a very important fairy tale award that was selected across islands at that time. .

"But Peter Pan didn't know about it. He really thought he had written it badly.

"So he began to think hard about 'how children should think'. In the process, he received five or six critical letters in different handwriting, all in the tone of a child, criticizing his last book. That award is called the 'Innocent Award', which is the highest level fairy tale award in Happy Island.

"He began to wonder if there was a difference in the aesthetics of fairy tales between the judges as adults and the readers as children? His joy after winning the award became dim. He is not married, so he has no real children...so He can't get a real 'kid's evaluation'.

"So he tried to imitate the actions of the child, imitate the tone of the child and talk to other people. And people thought he was crazy ... Soon, he was really crazy."

"So, he turned into a demon?"

"No, he just awakened the psionic power—the psionic power that returned himself, and his mind, back to childhood."
