Chapter 35: Trapped in the Chamber of Secrets
"No, I have a question." Looking at Finger who was a little fanatical, Chu Zihang calmed down and said, "How could Shigan let us see such an important thing so easily..."
"Look at the safe being twisted like this, I guess it's troublesome." Finger said casually, then began to take out his flip phone from his pocket.
"Well, this is the strangest thing... Whose safe will be twisted like this..." Chu Zihang said, and turned around and saw Finger who took out his flip phone behind him. "When is it now? Do you... still want to take a picture as a souvenir? Or... post it on Moments?"
Chu Zihang became autistic. He found that after staying with this guy for a long time, people gradually became "finger" and their vision of the world was a little different.
"I'm contacting EVA and ask her to scan this document and save it, so don't lose it later." Finger rarely showed a cautious look.
Chu Zihang came to his senses and carefully looked at the old antique flip phone in Finger's hand for the first time. The pink Sony model from the 1990s didn't look like a thing that could make video calls. And Chu Zihang thought it was strange to see the pink color scheme.
But EVA's virtual portrait does appear on the screen, and it is still vivid.
The equipment department is really omnipotent, Chu Zihang thought. He probably is the product of the transformation of those madmen. Under the seemingly old mobile phone case, there is actually a hidden existence that can beat the Apple system.
The group of madmen liked this simple and unpretentious sense of stunning. They believed that this would catch the enemy off guard at a critical moment. Although they scared their own people a little more times, they could not deny the strength of the equipment department at all.
"Why are you looking for me again? I've never thought of taking me when I was having a good time outside, so I'll come to someone whenever I have something to do!" A stingy voice came from my phone.
Is this EVA? Chu Zihang was a little confused, which is different from the quiet girl in the academy system I saw before.
The moment he heard the sound, Finger was obviously stunned for a moment, staring at the girl in the video, and didn't speak for a long time.
"Eva..." Finger seemed to be mumbling in his dreams and immediately adjusted his status: "Look at this file, you can back it up, and then upload it back to the college's overall system."
"It's so annoying. I have to do this every time..." Finger's EVA complained, "You're good at cameras, you're always so irritable!"
"Okay... OK, it's right, it's up." Finger changed his previous cynicism and carefully flattened the materials, aiming them at the camera page by page, like a child who was supervised by parents to complete his homework.
Chu Zihang, who was standing by, finally understood the scene in front of him. The EVA of Finger's mobile phone should only replicate some of the functions in the main system of the academy, which is "EVA's 'e' in Finger".
(Reference: Everyone here is Eddie Peng ×× City "Fenyan", and the EVA inside Long Si also gave Lu Mingfei a "Finger version")
It's just that kind of arrogant personality... Chu Zihang can't complain, maybe this guy is good at this.
"Okay, what's so important? I have to wake me up. I'm very power-consuming when I run it. When the power goes out, you will forget to charge it again. I have to remind me!" EVA continued, like a nagging little wife.
"Nothing, a very important thing..." Finger was stunned for a longer time before he said slowly, as if he was recalling some past events, with a sad expression, "I won't talk to you anymore, my phone will run out of battery again later."
Chu Zihang had an illusion that Finger seemed to choke just now, although this guy still looked hippie and smiling.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!" EVA shouted, "Didn't you notice that something is wrong with your surroundings?"
"No, look, I'm still alive." Finger still looked inappropriate, but he was a little different from before, and there seemed to be a hint of complex emotions.
"What's wrong?" Chu Zihang, the "light bulb" beside him, was very calm. As soon as EVA reminded him, he realized something was wrong, and it seemed... he was getting more and more "bore".
Yes, it’s the kind that’s stuffy and can’t breathe, Chu Zihang thought.
"I just checked it by the way. The carbon dioxide around you is constantly rising and the oxygen is also decreasing a lot. Have you forgotten to ventilate or be under the water?" EVA reminded.
"Damn!" Even Finger, a very nervous guy, reacted this time.
They were not trapped in a luxurious office, it was simply a completely closed "sealed urn" that could not even air enter!
No wonder Chigan only took away that white skull when he left, because it wasn't that important to know more about the corpse.
Although Chigan didn't know that the two were of mixed races, he happened to have a most effective way to deal with them. On Earth, no large animal can survive under anaerobic conditions.
In theory, as long as you can create a confined space that can trap the Black King, you... can "bore" him to death.
"What's wrong?" EVA asked curiously when he saw the two of them with a surprised expression.
Finger didn't say anything, but just quietly pointed the camera at the entire panoramic glass next to him.
They also tried to knock on the surrounding walls, but when Chu Zihang recognized that the walls were made of "nanomaterials" that made spacecraft, the two of them unanimously felt that breaking the glass in front of them might be easier.
"This structure...is...is Rupert's Tears!"
EVA thought for a while and then explained: "The melted glass will naturally drip into the cool water to form this strange structure - Rupert's Tears. The head of this structure is extremely strong and can withstand several tons of impact, but its tail is very fragile and it will break completely when pinched. It is a strange object in physics."
"Tons? It's gone..." Finger was a little dejected, as if he had recovered from the strange state just now, and then turned back to the "nonsense" that Chu Zihang knew.
"EVA means this thing has weaknesses!" Chu Zihang knew that this guy would never get the point, so he ignored his discouraged words, but said to EVA on the screen: "Do you know where the weakness is?"
"It's not clear at the moment. Try to hit it. I'll listen to the sound." EVA said, then looked at Finger and reminded: "Oh, remember to open the Word Spirit first."
Finger's state that had just recovered was disrupted again, and that inexplicable emotion once again enveloped him, and a memory hidden deep in his heart surged up.
"Why are you always so arrogant and always self-righteous? You don't need to be spiritual until the last moment. If I don't come, you will be finished!" The girl in my memory is still so cute, Finger thought.
That time he met a dragon who could use the "Shi Yan Spirit and Forbidden Law". When he wanted to open the Shi Yan Spirit, he found that his power was limited to death.
"How can I challenge my limit if I don't do this!" Finger couldn't help but say what he said when he was pretending to be in front of a girl.
A man can fall down, but he cannot be embarrassed in front of the girl he likes. This is Finger's life creed back then. Finger was much harder than Chu Zihang now.
"I don't care. You must remember to open the Word Spirit first, otherwise... or I will ignore you again!" the girl said angrily.
"Okay, okay, I promise you." Finger looked at the girl's long-lost red lips and couldn't help but want to kiss her.
However, in reality...
"What promised me?" The girl's sweet voice was no longer the girl's voice, but another... a cold male voice, and the girl in front of her immediately became... Chu Zihang.
Looking at Finger who was pouting his mouth, Chu Zihang complained: "You speak out! You guys, what kind of girl you are learning to be cute..."
There is no way, even if he is as cold as Chu Zihang, he can't calm down when facing the current "Fen Dog".
"Yes, I'm distracted..." The mutation of the painting made Finger not react for a while, but he immediately released his spirit.
Word Spirit·Bronze Royal Host!
Finger's originally thin body quickly expanded after using the Spirit, and his muscles swelled unscrupulously, revealing his blue veins, making him look like a German Hulk.
"You back, I'm going to hammer!" Finger raised his big fist and hit the glass side of Rupert's tear structure with all his might.
"Dong!"
A huge sound resounded throughout the office, and Chu Zihang could clearly feel the whole room shaking.
"If you don't have it here, hammer the other side." EVA directed.
"Boom!" Another shock.
"Not..., how could it be..." I couldn't understand when I returned to EVA, "You continue to hammer, don't stop, I'm analyzing."
"Dong, dun, dun..."
The loud noises came one after another, and the whole room was shaking like a roller coaster.
"No, no, no, no..." EVA denied it over and over again, Finger was like a "donkey from the production team" and did not dare to rest.
"Huhuhuhuhu..., I can't do it anymore..." Finger said with some loss. His breathing became rapid, and even his mind was blurred. He murmured in his dream: "Why do I feel that you are taking revenge on me, taking revenge on me that I did not protect you back then..."
"..." EVA on the screen typed a string of ellipsis on the top of his head. The "e" in Finger's phone was just Eva's memory and personality when she first met him, and she couldn't understand the loneliness in his tone.
"No..." Chu Zihang also had difficulty breathing. Although Finger used the Spirit to make his power much stronger, he also accelerated the oxygen consumption rate.
Obviously, the consumption of the meal just now had wasted a lot of oxygen, but Chu Zihang still tried his best to calm himself down.
Under the tremendous pressure of suffocation, an inexplicable melody and the young man with a red bow tie suddenly surged into Chu Zihang's mind.
"The flowing water has no shape, and the drifting wind cannot find any trace. The reasoning of any case depends on the heart. When all possibilities are eliminated, the impossible becomes possible, because there is always only one truth!" After the boy with red bow tie said that, his index finger slightly raised, as if pointing to the truth.
Chu Zihang's brain became active in an instant, and a light of inspiration flashed by, "Ground, we haven't tried the ground yet!"
The dreamer woke up with a word, and EVA finally realized. The two of them looked at Finger who was lying on the ground.
"Hey~, even the donkeys in the production team will be exhausted." Finger struggled to stand up, "It's the last time!"
"Dong!" Another shock.
However... there seems to be no movement.
"Huh~, I really can't do it." Finger collapsed on the ground again with exhaustion.
The moment he fell, the glass behind him was like a camel crushed by the last straw, shattering into powder in a "small" response, shining with crystal brilliance.
"Hahu~, hahu~, it's finally broken." Chu Zihang breathed violently.
"Yes! It's finally broken." Finger, who was lying on the ground, repeated Chu Zihang's words, and then turned off the EVA in his phone as soon as possible, leaving only the latter's stammering and unfinished words.
"Finger, wait for me, you can kill me..."
"Ha~, the one who bullies you is, the 'little stupid donkey, don't worry, with that material, I will definitely find a way to revive you..." Finger said to himself firmly in his heart.
Outside the window, the moon was revealed from behind the clouds.
