Chapter 168 The Secret of the Cyberpunk Zone
Chu Zhixin and Tang Shu went to bed very late at night. After returning, Chu Zhixin couldn't sleep at night. She lay in bed and kept asking them about their experience in Burlington.
Li Xiaoyun was lying on the bed. He turned to look at Su Xi, who was playing with an electronic bracelet on the bed next to him. He raised his chin and asked, "Didn't Hou Yuxuan say he discovered something new? Why are you silent now?"
"I don't know." Su Ci stared at the projection screen, "It's rare for him to not reply to my message for so long."
"Did you go play with your friends?"
Tang Shu turned her back to the two of them and spoke.
Su Silu sighed, rubbed her head, and suggested: "I'm so sleepy, let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Let's talk more, Tang Shu." Chu Zhixin looked down from the upper bunk of the bunk bed and held Tang Shu reluctantly to prevent her from sleeping.
Tang Shu blinked her eyes.
"I've said everything I need to say, there's nothing else to say."
"What are you going to do next?" Chu Zhixin asked, "Hand in the Book of Life again?"
Tang Shu shook her head hesitantly.
She didn't know how to explain it. If she wanted to tell the whole story, it would involve her own special situation. Those managers would not be like Chu Zhixin, who would not have doubts after covering some key points in a few words.
If it really develops like Tang Shu's original omitted statement, there is no way to explain why the Book of Life was stolen and given to her.
Chu Zhixin lay back, her clothes wrinkled and exposing her belly, and the quilt was pushed to one side of the bed. She looked at the skylight that let in the light, thinking about the problem, and said: "How did he steal the Book of Life and control it?"
Someone came here specially to give it to you?"
"magic?"
Tang Shu spoke uncertainly.
Chu Zhixin sighed: "Moving a small part of the place that should have been in the UK to Burlington in the United States, time is still stuck in the past. This is too complicated, and it is more difficult to understand than the incident in Shanghai."
"The incident in the Magic City? What incident?" Tang Shu suddenly became interested.
Su Ci also woke up a little and listened to Chu Zhixin's words without saying a word.
"The rating of Cyberpunk Evolution World has been downgraded." Chu Zhixin said, "Everyone who has been living in the Magic City knows this."
"Magic City is now a level two evolutionary world. So where is it? Level three or four?" Li Xiaoyun teased disapprovingly.
"Level 13."
Chu Zhixin’s words were astonishing.
"What?" Su Silu exclaimed.
Tang Shu's eyes widened in disbelief and she sat up.
The evolutionary world on the same level as New York City was downgraded to level two?
"What happened?" Tang Shu sat up.
"I don't know." Chu Zhixin also sat up on the upper bunk, her feet hanging down naturally, "The evolutionary world of the Magic City began very suddenly. On one day, a large number of equipment mutated, the buildings suddenly changed, and everything developed towards high-end technology.
But without human accommodation, the old order collapsed. People could not leave the Demon City, and it was not easy for people from outside to come in. At that time, the Demon City was the most chaotic place."
Su Ci understood: "So it's level thirteen."
"But about three or four days later, the closure of the Cyberpunk Evolutionary World ended, order slowly restored, and the government began to operate in an orderly manner. After a while, I don't remember how long, the Cyberpunk Zone was established.
The level was directly reduced to Level 2.”
Tang Shu, Li Xiaoyun and Su Ci's eyes were dull. This news was true and they did not expect it.
Su Silu murmured: "What happened in the middle?"
"Obviously, something happened that relieved the original danger of the Magic City." Tang Shu lay down again.
Chu Zhixin shrugged: "That involves a confidential matter, which is not something we can know."
The surroundings became quiet again, and the four girls were thinking about their own things. The sound of cups rubbing against each other as they turned over could be heard intermittently in the room, and a hazy sleepiness enveloped several people.
In the underground city, the assassination has occurred, the calm of the night has been broken, and people are enjoying the last appearance of peace and waiting for dawn.
…
…
In the morning, Su Silu was the first to get up and help make breakfast in the kitchen.
The remaining girls also got up one after another, washed themselves and walked out of the concierge.
Chu's mother brought out the breakfast worriedly, sat at the table and persuaded Chu Zhixin earnestly: "Don't go out to play today."
"Why? Is there anything going on at home today?"
Chu Zhixin was puzzled.
"No, it's not that there's something wrong at home. It's not safe outside." Chu's mother sighed.
"What your mother said is true." Chu's father also came over, "A series of bad things happened last night."
"last night?"
Chu Zhixin was stunned.
"This morning's news, several people died last night. It was a premeditated killing." Chu's mother held her forehead.
Chu Zhixin's reaction was much greater than that of Tang Shu and others: "In such a safe environment, with patrols every night, how could something like this happen!?"
"What's the meaning?"
Li Xiaoyun didn't realize that there was any big problem. Although murder was definitely not a good thing, Li Xiaoyun didn't understand why Chu Zhixin's family had such a big reaction.
Chu's mother sighed for the second time, with a depressed expression: "Since the Demon City had patrols, this kind of thing has never happened again, and even petty theft is rare. This is why no one can increase taxes to build Luosheng Hall.
Objection. But now..."
Someone killed someone in front of the patroller's eyes, or a group of people.
Tang Shu completed what Chu's mother wanted to say in her heart.
This is just an introduction to the turmoil and chaos in people's hearts. Will people no longer trust the patrol to protect them?
Who did this? It was so cruel.
Tang Shu clenched her fists.
The room was speechless for a while. Even if they lived a comfortable life, no one would forget what kind of virtue this world has become.
"I don't feel very good." Su Silu suddenly whispered.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable? After breakfast, go back to the room and take a rest." Chu's mother said gently, placing her warm palm on the back of Su Silk's hand.
Su Silu nodded, finished breakfast quickly, and returned to Chu Zhixin's room with Tang Shu and Li Xiaoyun. After closing the door, Tang Shu heard Chu Zhixin's family chatting quietly. Chu's father kept telling Chu Zhixin to pay attention to safety. If it was true,
If you encounter this kind of situation, give priority to escaping.
"Is it your supernatural power?" Li Xiaoyun lowered his voice in Su Sil's ear.
Su Silu nodded slightly and replied: "It's very weak and inaccurate, but it really doesn't feel good."
Li Xiaoyun took a deep breath and exhaled heavily.
The situation this time is different from their previous ones. It is not only about their personal survival, but also involves a war between two races.
Tang Shu sat on her bed, pressed the pillow with her right hand, and felt the texture of the Book of Life under the pillow with her sensitive fingertips.
Misfortune never comes singly.
At this time, Hou Yuxuan's video request popped up from Su Ci's electronic bracelet.
"video?"
Su Silu was stunned.
"Is there something you can't understand clearly?" Li Xiaoyun also frowned in confusion.
Su Silu connected to the video in confusion. The screen flickered, and the other party's signal seemed to be poor.
Li Xiaoyun preemptively asked: "Hey, where did you go last night? You can forget something if you tell us."
Tang Shu came over and saw that behind Hou Yuxuan was a gray wall. The light there was very dark, and Hou Yuxuan himself seemed not to be in good spirits, his face was ashen, almost blending into the background wall, as if... he had not slept all night.
