Chapter Six, Chu Ling
He certainly does not wish for the girl to be imprisoned like A-009
Even the dead, as long as they have been born, will not have such a void
Gu Shen yawned, took out a large bag of cat food, and poured it into a plate, "Orange, it's time to eat"
The way he eats... Gu Shen looked on with a hint of disdain
A single sentence is like a heavy hammer
Did I forget to turn off the holographic screen on the desk when I left by myself? Gu Shen was momentarily taken aback
Gu Shen pushed open the door and called out softly.
Accompanied by a sharp cat's meow, Juzi jolted awake, emerging from a deep slumber, the glow in his eyes fading, and with a fierce aura, he jumped off the table and buried his head in the plate, indulging in a hearty meal.
The mottled light in the bedroom flickers faintly
This ruler does not seem to possess the ability to corrode
He was striving to digest this large amount of information, and the last message from Chu Ling in the dialogue box was still that sentence from when the train departed
result
Blank
Suddenly, a dialog box popped up on the computer screen
New Era ... ... New Era ... ...
An orange cat is sitting on the table in front of the screen of the full and the books, intently gazing at the front door
Gu Shen furrowed his brows, glanced at the breaking news, and felt that something was amiss. He wanted to strike the keyboard but suddenly stopped.
This blank space does not indicate that it has not been filled out, but rather that there are no fields to fill in at all. On this small information card, there is no name, gender, date of birth, hobbies, signature, or anything else.
The story, which was hastily concocted while taking a sip of water, was taken very seriously by that guy named Wei Shu...! It is evident that there was an issue with the train compartment's surveillance footage, and those people had no idea what had actually transpired on the train
The dialog box shows that the other party is typing: "... ... You answered that question correctly, very impressive."
This is ... ... Gu Shenleng was taken aback.
Gu Shen's fingers hovered over the projection keyboard, and in that moment, his mind short-circuited
I am back
Gu Shen now feels fortunate... He is grateful that he did not honestly confess in the interrogation room earlier. Who knows what those aggressive individuals who arrived by helicopter to collect A-009's body would do if they found out that there exists an unruly character like the girl from the library?
"Not eating? If you miss this village, there won't be this shop anymore." Gu Shen turned back with annoyance
So much has happened today that I returned home after 2 AM, and it is commendable that it has waited until now
Who is the girl, what is the situation with that train, and what about A-009 and that newspaper... There are so many questions that I can't count them all
A light "ding-dong" sound.
What they saw was the normal Line 13
Only blank
After boarding that subway train, the scenes unfolded in reverse, freezing and flashing back one after another
My name is Chu Ling. The girl seemed to possess telepathy, as she immediately replied the moment Gu Shen sent the message: "... I know you have many questions to ask, but now is not the time; the person who wants to kill you is on the way"
The shabby one-bedroom apartment is empty and desolate, measuring around 30 to 40 square meters. Aside from a table and a bed, there is nothing else; describing it as bare walls is not an exaggeration.
Gu Shen was at a loss, rubbing his brow, muttering to himself: "That old man said that the new era is about to arrive..."
Gu Shen was well aware that the search traces he casually left behind could very likely become clues for those with ulterior motives to investigate
Gu Shen was somewhat surprised that this silly cat did not come over immediately. With his back to the table, he did not see that the orange cat on the table was looking down from a height, its eyes emitting a faint glow
The current situation is quite dangerous. Communication will be blocked next, and the network will be cut off. I will contact you in another way
He has too many questions he wants to ask
At the first opportunity, Gu Shen attempted to find the other party's information... However, in the profile and related sections, no matter how Gu Shen clicked, everything displayed was blank
Gu Shen had too many doubts in his heart... He originally thought he could obtain some answers from the mouths of those people in the interrogation room
This is a stray cat that Gu Shen just picked up not long ago, and it is named Orange. After bringing it home, he discovered that... this creature can really eat a lot. No wonder it is a big orange; however, its weight does not seem to increase much, as it eats without gaining weight.
The daily response to him is an urgent meow of a hungry cat, but today the response was a bit slower and sounded much calmer than usual
If someone is truly paying attention to me ... I must be cautious
What exactly is going on with that girl and A-009
The silly cat ate its fill and, with a swagger, found a place to curl up and sleep soundly
Meow
Gu Shen, survive
Open the webpage
There has been such a commotion tonight, yet there are no related reports or posts
What exactly is the purpose of this thing
Gu Shen sat in front of the holographic screen, carefully wrapping his fingers with a tissue as he took out the ruler from the collar of his garment, gazing at the silver ruler... He fell into deep thought
Thank you. Gu Shen politely replied, then eagerly asked: "I have some questions I would like to ask... For example, who are you?"
This sentence reminded Gu Shen
I recalled a phrase from an elderly person on the bus
Congratulations
Meow!!!
However, what I began to climb onto was the old and mottled "Zero One".
No response
In the year 638 of the new calendar, thanks to the supercomputer "Deep Sea" developed by Alan Turing, the five continents were closely connected through a virtual network, allowing all citizens to enjoy a vast amount of real-time information and extremely rapid super-intelligent services without leaving their homes
Regardless, it no longer matters
The holographic screen displays a special effect of waves rolling and crashing in layers.
But everything on this card is blank ... ? ... Is there a malfunction in the system
At that time, when A-009 handed this thing to himself, it seemed there was no malice involved
There is no need to worry about anyone disguising themselves... Gu Shen was very certain that his encounter with the young girl was known to no one else, not even that enigmatic "Mr. Tree".
The other party's avatar is a blank space, but the tone is clearly that of the girl in the white dress encountered on the train.
Gu Shen had never encountered such a situation, where every citizen of the five continents must provide blood samples to be recorded in the Deep Sea Database, and only through real-name registration can one access the Deep Sea Network
