The Lightless Sea 73
Kai Xin had dinner, washed up and lay on the bed, recalling everything that happened in the past seven days.
On August 3, she returned to the Second World, received medical treatment after a thrilling fight with the Scythe Demon, and had to expose her extraordinary ability to regenerate flesh and blood. On the morning of the 3rd, Kai Xin accepted the Awakened qualification review. On the evening of the 3rd, Kai Xin went to the Mechanical Dawn headquarters to meet with Kai Haidong, and visited some new projects being developed by Rick Technology.
On August 4 and August 5, Kai Xin went to work normally and did not encounter any accidents.
On August 6, Kuixin and his teammates from Team Seven received a mission from the Investigation Department and prepared to board the Kraken to perform escort missions. On the evening of the 6th, all members of the Seventh Squad took an armed helicopter to the sea.
In the early morning of August 7, the armed helicopter arrived over the Kraken, and the seventh team boarded the ship smoothly. Half an hour after boarding the ship, the Kraken exploded. The mission execution team tried to support the seventh team, but was trapped. The armed helicopter that came to rescue was destroyed, and the boarding security team was wiped out. It was also in the early morning of the 7th that Kai Xin, who was struggling with the regeneration of flesh and blood, saw the cargo transported by the Kraken under the guidance of Adam-the cocoon.
Then Kai Xin died, time went back, she crossed the boundary of death, and returned to August 4th.
The second reincarnation.
On August 4, Kai Xin took the initiative to call Kai Haidong after the break, and went to the mechanical dawn headquarters to take the risk of testing, and learned from Kai Haidong that the mechanical dawn had noticed the existence of “players”.
On August 5, Kai Xin began to try a different route, looking for more possibilities, so that his butterfly wings could affect a wider range. She encounters Briarthorn and Silverface on her morning patrol, and Squad 7 engages them both in a fierce battle. The appearance of two superhumans at the port caught the attention of the Investigation Department, who searched the port and found a hidden blasting device. Mechanical Dawn’s mooring port blasting plan was forced to abort. At the same time, Red’s decisive action also caused heavy losses to the Investigation Department.
On August 6, Kuixin and his teammates of Mechanical Dawn boarded the Kraken with them after the mission meeting. In the early morning of the 6th, Kai Xin boarded a boat to capture Tang Guan, avoided the end of death, and returned with his teammates smoothly. During the daytime on the 6th, Kui Xin went to work in the Anti-Investigation Department as usual, and learned about the extraordinary ability of Deputy Minister Lin Xinji from Shu Xuyao. On the evening of the 6th, Kai Xin was invited to interrogate the imprisoned players at the mechanical dawn headquarters.
She met Zhao Wenyao, Rainier, and Tang Guan. After confirming Tang Guan’s true identity, the investigation progress of the task issued by the system finally reached 100%.
Kui Xin received an “invitation letter” as a reward.
August 7 and August 8 were relatively free, and her daily routine was office work and training.
On August 9, that is, this evening, Kai Xin had an open and honest exchange with the artificial intelligence Adam.
Today is also the day of returning to the first world.
From August 3rd to August 9th, although only seven days have passed, under the effect of “death reincarnation”, the time period that Kai Xin experienced was far longer than seven days.
She kept everything that happened every day in her heart. She grew up through the incidents, obtained information from the people around her, and gradually determined her own path.
Kai Xin doesn’t have a free day. Her brain is so full of things that it’s hard for her to stop and organize her thoughts. Most of the time, she thinks while walking.
Whether mentally or physically, Kai Xin was extremely exhausted. She longed for a good night’s sleep, a high-quality sleep without dreams.
In the first world, at the very least, Kai Xin didn’t have to worry about being assassinated while sleeping, and didn’t have to worry about whether his identity would be revealed and killed when he went to work tomorrow or communicated with people from Mechanical Dawn.
Kai Xin glanced at the time. It is now 22:36. She wasted a lot of time taking a bath, and now she needs to sleep for a while.
She set a watch for herself at 7 o’clock in the morning on the 10th, and she had to go to work in the investigation department tomorrow.
The Investigation Department is worthy of being the running dog of the consortium. The rest system for the employees in the department perfectly reflects the capitalist’s hateful face – squeezing the labor force. They implement a monthly rotation system, with three days off every month, and the holidays are not fixed, if the employees who take the leave during this time periodWith a large number of people, Kai Xin’s vacation time can only be postponed later.
Kai Xin set the alarm clock, got up from the bed and opened the bedroom door, stared at the shimmering living room and said, “Yinmian, don’t look too late, it will waste electricity. Also, turn down the volume, you are disturbing me.”
“Oh.” Yin Mian shrank his head and quickly turned down the volume of the TV. “I’ll watch it for another half an hour, okay?”
What responded to him was the sound of closing the door.
Kai Xin locked the door, lay down on the bed and fell asleep peacefully.
She knew that when she woke up again, she would return to the world she was familiar with.
…
“Om… Om…”
Kai Xin’s body shook and he almost fell down.
The strong balance of her body made her stabilize her body in time. She reflexively supported the dilapidated furniture beside her, and opened her eyes.
The familiar night view of the city came into view. In the distance were flashing neon lights and a bridge across the river. Looking down was the stone road in the old community with damaged street lights. The only remaining street light was stubbornly on.
When Kai Xin walked home at night in her third year of high school, it was the remaining street lamp that illuminated her way home and gave her the courage to walk in the gloomy night.
Kai Xin heard a buzzing sound in her ears. It was her mobile phone alarm ringing. The last time Kai Xin returned to the Second World to face the attack of the scythe demon, she specially set an alarm clock to give herself time to react.
Kai Xin picked up the phone and turned off the alarm clock, took deep breaths repeatedly, took a few steps back and sat on his bed, closed his eyes to meditate, and stabilized his emotions.
After a while, a new message popped up on her social software.
Yuan Lu: “Kai Xin, are you okay?”
Yuan Lu and Kai Xin actually felt a sense of strangeness when they saw this name. It was because she had been away from the first world for too long, and she had also been away from a peaceful life for too long, which caused her to feel as if she was in another world when she saw greetings from others.
Kai Xin and Yuan Lu, Yu Qiwen, and Xie Ganqing rarely communicated with each other after they met that time. After returning to the Second World, Kai Xin never thought of them even once.
The first thing Yuan Lu did after returning to the first world was to contact Kai Xin to ask if she was well, which surprised her somewhat.
Kai Xin replied: “I’m fine. How about you?”
Yuan Lu: “Yu Qiwen, Xie Ganqing and I were together when we returned. The three of us are fine. Did you encounter any difficulties when you returned to the Second World this time?”
“No, everything is normal.” Kai Xin said.
“Then I’m relieved.” Yuan Lu said, “Life must go on, let’s work hard together. Don’t think so much tonight, sleep well, good night!”
“Good night.” Kui Xin politely replied these two words.
On the other side, Yuan Lu put down his phone and muttered: “Well, it seems that my little sister didn’t encounter anything. I was exhausted from the seven days in the second world. The garbage boss called back the plan I made, and I did it repeatedly. Three proposals, none of which can satisfy him… When did I suffer this kind of anger?”
“Don’t mention it, Sister Lu.” Yu Qiwen said with a sad face, “My second world graduate advisor told me that my thesis was unqualified and asked me to rewrite it, but I rewrote it, but he took my old thesis for publication. He also threatened me that if I report it, he will keep me out of the limelight for the rest of my life.”
Yuan Lu poked Xie Ganqing’s elbow, “What about you, aren’t you leading a team to start a business in Second World? Is there any boss who saw your business plan and wants to invest in you?”
“Currently, there are several big companies interested in investing, but they all require absolute control. I can hold 49% of the shares at most.” Xie Ganqing said quietly.
Yuan Lu said: “As expected of a world where financial groups control the power, it is really difficult for ordinary people to stand out.”
“Class solidification is the biggest problem in the second world.” Yu Qiwen said.
“By the way, did you pay attention to what happened to Kai Xin in the second world?” Yuan Lu turned to look at Yu Qiwen.
Yu Qiwen said: “Of course I noticed, but I didn’t find any relevant information about her in the resident database. She seems to be an invisible person… There are two situations that can explain it. First, Kai Xin’s information belongs to encrypted information, not in the superficial level. In the resident database. Second, she is a black household, a homeless person without identification.”
“If it’s the first case, then Kai Xin’s citizenship level is at least level three, or even higher.” Xie Ganqing said, “If it’s the second case…”
“Then she is really unlucky.” Yuan Lu said sympathetically.
Xie Ganqing said: “I specifically checked how the citizenship level can be improved, and found that the conditions are very harsh. First, pay enough taxes and pass the review of relevant departments. Second, serve in an official federal agency. Third, be a federal deputy ministerial leader. Immediate family members of officials. Fourth, a doctorate degree or above. Fifth, become an awakened person.”
Yu Qiwen: “From undergraduate to Ph.D., I did the math. It is conservatively estimated that it will cost at least 5 million yuan, and to obtain a degree certificate, I need to prepare an additional few million yuan to bribe school leaders and tutors…”
“Suddenly I feel that I have a new understanding of the darkness of the second world.” Yuan Lu said in shock, “I now think that little sister Kuixin may be a criminal. This is the simplest and most realistic explanation.”
The three of them looked at each other and sighed heavily.
Yu Qiwen turned on the computer and said, “Let’s take a look at the forum first, maybe there will be some important announcements again, we must not miss the first-hand news.”
Xie Ganqing and Yuan Lu leaned together in front of the computer. Yu Qiwen looked at the bloody number of survivors at the top of the forum, and couldn’t help but say, “Damn it!”
The number of survivors: 9201.
Yu QiwenEyes straightened: “Why are more and more people dying! I thought everyone would learn to hide themselves, and fewer and fewer people will die in the future…Why is this happening?”
He was about to check the registration of the death broadcast carefully, but Yuan Lu stopped him, “The popular science master 233 posted a post! The title of the post is…”
Yu Qiwen saw the title of the post: “The federal government of the second world already knows the existence of players and the first world, and they are capturing, interrogating, and cleaning players.”
This post seemed to be a nuclear bomb, which made everyone in the forum dumbfounded.
…
Kai Xin didn’t want to post this post at first.
She thought that there would be captured players who would stand up and post. Even if ordinary players didn’t have the courage, Rainier would have enough courage.
But she didn’t know how deep and firm the Mechanical Dawn’s consciousness implanted into Rainier, so she was waiting, waiting for Rainier to come out and post.
This is a test, to test whether Rainier can get rid of mind control after traveling through the world.
But she waited for ten minutes, but no one came out to post.
At this moment, Kai Xin realized that the situation was more serious than she had imagined.
The players in the forum didn’t know anything about it. They were arguing endlessly around the fact that Depriver No. 233 killed again. They discussed Depriver No. 233 far away in the sky, discussed the threat she brought to them, and commented She was crazy and cruel, but she didn’t realize that the danger was close at hand, and even lurked around them.
So Kai Xin tapped the phone screen and typed the title.
She thought for a while, and said on the first floor of the post: “Don’t take chances, don’t reveal any flaws, and don’t trust the people around you too much… We think we are hiding in the dark, but our enemies are hiding deeper dark place.”
