24 hours to save the world

[Two to three thousand, maybe more, I haven't counted them, it's just an estimate. ]

Apple Pie opened her mouth wide, obviously she was busy following Zhu Shijiu's orders and running away, she didn't expect that she would lure so many super soldiers... She didn't even know there were so many super soldiers in this area before!

She was busy following Zhu Shijiu's orders and drove. She drove wherever Zhu Shijiu told her to go. She braked whenever Zhu Shijiu told her to step on the brakes, stepped on the accelerator, turned, released pheromones... She did everything. She hesitated at first, but then gradually let go, just mindlessly following orders.

So much so that she didn't even notice the huge number of super soldiers she had lured.

[Why, is this a lot? ]

"A lot! Super a lot! You know, the most I lured before was only fifty or so super soldiers, and you let me seduce more than two thousand super soldiers at once... Are you crazy? Do you want these super soldiers to go to war with the organization?!"

Apple Pie finally couldn't help it.

If it was just a small fight each time, she would have listened half-heartedly. In her opinion, it would not affect the overall situation anyway. Now the number made her feel shaken and afraid.

[So what? You have become my accomplice now, right? This is also what Commander Xu meant. ]

Apple Pie opened his mouth but remained silent, his expression changed.

"Commander Xu... Prophet, tell me the truth, does Commander Xu want to eliminate dissidents?"

Zhu Shijiu answered immediately: [I don't know. ]

"Commander Xu wants to use the oppression of super soldiers to make the rebellious organization in the United States automatically reveal itself?"

[I don't know. ]

"There are many different factions in the organization, even Commander Xu does not fully control them, and at this critical period, Commander Xu does not want any faction to interfere with his plan, so he wants to use super soldiers to identify enemies and friends..."

[I don't know. 】

"Prophet!" Apple Pie finally got angry, "You don't know this or that, what else can you know? Do you really think I haven't thought about it? If all this is part of Commander Xu's plan, then am I wrong? Give me a definite answer!"

[I don't know. ]

Zhu Shijiu still said this, but the next moment he changed his tone and let out a little bit of something: [But you are right about one thing, there are indeed different factions in the organization. If Commander Xu's real Ark plan is known to people, almost all factions will strongly oppose it. ]

"So what is Commander Xu's real plan? God knows whether what you said is true or false!" Apple Pie complained, "As long as you tell it, maybe I can become your real one. You don't have to be so wary of me, right?"

[Want to know? Then find Commander Xu and give him the note I gave you. ]

It seems that this note is really important.

Apple Pie actually tried to decipher the content of this note in secret, but she tried all kinds of deciphering methods but couldn't decipher the content of the note.

She suspected that the garbled code on the note was a kind of "agreed password".

The so-called "agreed password" means that the two parties agree on a way to decipher the password, using one character to represent a specific sentence or a means of deciphering. This kind of password is absolutely impossible for others to know the true content of the password except for the two parties who know it.

In Apple Pie's opinion, if the prophet really has a special agreed deciphering method with Commander Xu, then the password is indeed highly confidential. Even if it falls into the hands of others, others cannot decipher the true meaning.

However, at this moment, perhaps it was a flash of inspiration, or perhaps it was noticed that something was wrong.

Apple Pie noticed a sentence that frequently appeared in Zhu Shijiu's mouth and was repeatedly emphasized.

——"Find Commander Xu".

Since receiving this note, she has been trying to find out the truth behind the New York incident by trying to test and talk to Zhu Shijiu. From that time on, Apple Pie has been secretly paying attention to Zhu Shijiu's words and analyzing the logic of Zhu Shijiu's words.

So she found a detail that Zhu Shijiu may not have noticed.

That is, Zhu Shijiu never talks nonsense. This guy seems to be very concerned about time and efficiency, or maybe he has become alert after noticing her probing behavior. In short, this guy always responds to her questions with short and efficient replies.

And every time he mentions the note, Zhu Shijiu always says something like "find Commander Xu and give him the note."

From the perspective of sentence efficiency, the first half of the sentence can be completely ignored, and only the emphasis on "give the note to Commander Xu" is needed.

However, every time Zhu Shijiu tirelessly adds the half sentence "find Commander Xu", from a psychological perspective, this frequent and unconscious emphasis in the conversation can reflect a person's emotional tendency towards something.

Zhu Shijiu doesn't know but cares about Commander Xu's location.

Apple Pie thought of the communication requests that Zhu Shijiu showed her, which were all displayed as unanswered.

Since he cares about Commander Xu's location, why didn't he answer the call when Commander Xu contacted him? He was worried that the communication was monitored by the organization, but it should be okay to confirm Commander Xu's location after answering the call, right?

Why did he still ask her to look for Commander Xu?

Apple Pie never gave up thinking about it.

The only explanation she could think of was that Zhu Shijiu was not sure about the status of Commander Xu on the other end of the communication, and he was not even sure whether it was Commander Xu himself on the other end of the communication.

In other words, Commander Xu's current situation might be very bad, he might be imprisoned, controlled or...

The more Apple Pie thought about it, the more terrible it felt, and this possibility confirmed the truth of Zhu Shijiu's unconscious repeated mention of "find Commander Xu".

She did not speak out her guess.

Because this possibility was too absurd and terrifying.

The highest commander of a black soldier organization was imprisoned and controlled? Is there any hope for this world? Can Commander Xu's plan still succeed?

However, what made Apple Pie feel even more empty and painful was that it was more reasonable to interpret the whole incident from this perspective.

Why did the prophet suddenly "betray" the organization and stir up trouble in New York? Because he was Commander Xu's hidden man, there might be some way for the two to confirm personal safety. The prophet knew that Commander Xu had a problem in some way, so he tried to stir up trouble in New York to attract the mastermind behind the scenes.

Why did the prophet provoke the confrontation between the organization and the United States? It was the same reason, because there was a person who controlled Commander Xu, who could control Commander Xu himself who was protected by the Black Soldiers. The only person that Apple Pie could think of was the "Black Soldiers".

That's right, the person who could imprison and control Commander Xu was most likely the Black Soldiers themselves.

The prophet just said inadvertently that there were factional disputes between the organizations, and Commander Xu's real plan was not tolerated by other factions. This is also related to the conjecture.

So if the conjecture is correct, then the truth from beginning to end should be:

Commander Xu had a real plan that only he and the prophet or a very few people knew, and this plan was accidentally leaked out. After being known by the bigwigs of other factions in the organization, the bigwigs planned to control Commander Xu.

At this time, the prophet also came to New York. After knowing everything, the prophet deliberately muddied the waters and provoked the confrontation between the United States and the Black Soldiers Organization. And because the Black Soldiers of other factions were too powerful, it was necessary to bring out the Super Soldiers to fight against the Black Soldiers. In order to avoid being targeted, the prophet muddied the water and disappeared from the organization's sight.

After that, the prophet took a risky move and chose to publish the "Decision" to completely ignite the United States' dissatisfaction with the black soldiers, thereby successfully luring out the super soldiers.

But after luring out the super soldiers, the prophet still needed to further use the super soldiers to rescue Commander Xu, so she took action... Thinking of this, there is a question that must be mentioned-why did the prophet target her instead of other elite black soldiers?

This can also be explained: because when she was investigating the manor incident, she told the prophet and Da Vinci that she was from the command.

The prophet was isolated and helpless in New York. Every black soldier might be an enemy of other factions, but do we need to say more about the loyalty of the black soldiers from the command to Commander Xu?

The prophet framed her and forced her to have no way out. In fact, it was to confirm that she, an elite black soldier from the command, was not an enemy, so that she could enter the game as a chess piece.

It was precisely because of isolation that the prophet had to gather the surviving rats in New York before the rat extermination operation to gain their power. So when she fell into the hands of the mouse, the prophet let her go on his own initiative, because the prophet was not really on the side of the mouse, his purpose...

His real purpose was not to let her pass a meaningless note, but to use all available means-"find Commander Xu"!

No, to be more precise, it was-"rescue" Commander Xu!

"Found...the truth!"

After reasoning to this point, Apple Pie half seemed to take a breath of cold air, and half seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and was extremely confused.

The head was uncontrollably hot.

She just unconsciously used pheromones to make herself "transcendent thinking".

The prophet would never have thought that she could analyze so many things through a simple conversation.

Apple Pie didn't want to believe this was true, but the clues seemed to be arranged, tightly strung together to form a logically self-consistent context. The confusion that always existed in the chaos in New York was also suddenly clear after reasoning out the conclusion, and more importantly, the prophet's various operations were supported by logic.

【What's wrong? It sounds like you are out of breath. 】

The voice of the prophet sounded in the headset.

Apple Pie forced herself to calm down, organized her words, and made sure that her emotions had calmed down before speaking: "It's okay... By the way, Prophet, I have a very simple question, can you answer me?"

However, the corners of her mouth still curled up unconsciously.

[Say. 】

"Commander Xu... Is he alive or dead now?"

In the headset, the prophet suddenly fell into a long silence.

The corners of Apple Pie's mouth also curled up a big arc, as if a slave who had been oppressed in despair for a long time finally found a weapon to resist.

The prophet threatened her with her situation, but on the other hand, if her guess was correct, then the person who was most worried about exposing her whereabouts should be the prophet.

She found it, found a weapon to reverse the offensive and defensive situation in one fell swoop.
