After the global recovery, I traveled through

Jianping.

Before leaving Zhao's house, Zhao Lue's cell phone left on the bed rang. It was Wang Xichen's call.

Ji Shun listened to the rapid gasping on the other end, as if Wang Xichen had just had a nightmare even more terrifying than the nightmare pipe.

Wang Xichen said: "You are at home, I will go find you."

Soon, Wang Xichen realized that the person who answered the phone was not Zhao Lue. He was silent for a while and asked, "Are you the dragon raised by Zhao Lue?"

Ji Shun frowned slightly, but did not correct him for saying the opposite.

Wang Xichen then asked: "Did Zhao Lue go to some arena?"

Ji Shun answered yes.

There was another period of silence, Ji Shun held the phone and flew into the sky.

When he looked down at the Xiangshan Mountain where the Zhao family was located, Wang Xichen asked another question, his voice low and hoarse: "Will he come back?"

Ji Shun said: "Yes."

His emotionless answer seemed to arouse Wang Xichen's dissatisfaction.

Some of Wang Xichen's suppressed emotions suddenly exploded: "——I mean Zhao Lue!"

"I'm not talking about anyone else! I'm talking about Zhao Lue, the eldest son of the Zhao family who grew up with me!" After a pause, he said discouraged, "It's not Lin Xingtao."

Ji Shun didn't pay attention to his ups and downs of emotions. As a god, his consciousness swept across the rivers, rivers and seas, looking for traces of Han Jianping.

After Wang Xichen apologized for his out-of-control tone, Ji Shun replied again: "I was right, he will go back."

Ji Shun hung up the phone, and the phone reappeared next to Zhao Lue's pillow, and on the ridge of the mountain, there was a white dragon from mythology and legend.

Beyond the mountains is a scenic spot with many tourists, taking photos, eating, and walking on the plank road. When they look down, they can only see a dragon shape shrouded in white clouds.

There is also a surging river beyond the mountains. The ancient dams built by modern people have cut off the river water.

Han Jianping was lying on the embankment, and when he was stabbed by the dragon's pupils that shrank in the sunlight, he exclaimed: "The Dragon King of the Yangtze River!"

Being able to pronounce these four words, Han Jianping has obviously recovered his memory from another earth.

Han Jianping originally traveled with memories, but was messed up by his mother Huang Chuntao. At this time, he finally recalled his brief memory of being a water god, and Lin Xingtao who casually made him a god in his memory. He also knew Lin Xingtao's pseudonym Zhao Lue.

Han Jianping said: "The Lord God knows that there is a mortal enemy named Lin Xingtao who cannot be let go, but the Lord God does not know about Zhao Lue."

"The Lord God thought that Lin Xingtao was from the SCP-SUA Foundation, that's why the two were so opposed."

The SCP-SUA Foundation does have a "Dr. Lin".

"I can help you find the reincarnations who have not entered the arena, but... I have a request." Han Jianping's face turned pale, "Let my mother change back to her original appearance. Only now do I know that she is not the main god at all. The Lord God is interested in someone else!"

Ji Shun didn't agree to him but didn't refuse either. When he was about to go to the foundation, he heard Zhao Lue's voice.

Even Ji Shun could not penetrate the barrier of the arena to transmit a voice to the player Zhao Lue. Zhao Lue's current voice transmission was either because he had awakened as Lin Xingtao, or he was using the power of the arena.

Zhao Lue is the latter.

He told Ji Shun his experience so far——

Zhao Lue completely integrated the Scarlet Brotherhood and acquired the identity of a local. After completing the first phase of the mission, he received a reward.

Everyone's reward is the same, choose one of three: redraw a card, refresh a relic, or contact a specific person in the real world for a period of time.

The arena is very considerate, taking into account the sudden opening of the 100th floor and the impact of long-term tasks on reality, although the time flow rate is not equal.

Zhao Lue said that he had a hunch on the first option. If he really drew cards again, he would draw a terrifying indescribable existence. As for the second one, he felt that he might refresh a relic that could draw cards again. The first and second may be the same.

So Zhao Lue chose the third one to contact Ji Shun.

Han Jianping listened from the side. As the son of Huang Chuntao, the winner of the first arena season, he knew many things, such as what the tasks of the second stage were.

For example, the so-called killing in the killing mission also includes changing the form of the original species. If a person becomes a ghoul, then he counts as one point. A ghoul turning into a human counts as well.

Ji Shun told Zhao Lue this, and Zhao Lue immediately responded: "I will attract the knights in three days and use them to gain divine power to release the big demon. Their opponents are vampires and they should come during the day." Ji Shun, be ready to come in."

Han Jianping took out the invitation letter that he had intended for himself and gave it to Ji Shun.

So Ji Shun calculated the speed of time and waited for the opportunity.

——

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xichen was startled and slapped the steering wheel hard.

He was in his garage, looking at the flickering car lights, his eyebrows knitting together.

After he returned home, he had a dream in which his own memories came back over and over again, giving him a sense of horror and uneasiness that exceeded that of a human being.

Zhao Lue...Lin Xingtao.

One is Fa Xiao with deep feelings, and the other is actually a complete stranger whom he only met once when he was very young.

[The boy from the Wang family, he has nothing to do with you. ]

Wang Xichen's dream ended when he was preparing to study abroad. He didn't know whether he had contact with Zhao Lue...Lin Xingtao later.

Probably not, after all, the situations of the two people are too different.

Thinking of this, Wang Xichen looked around impatiently and found a pack of cigarettes in the car.

He held the cigarette between his lips, but did not light it. There was a dry adhesion between his lips and the cigarette.

He remembered that Zhao Lue was in a bad mood once and opened a pack of cigarettes with a bad face.

Zhao Lue held the cigarette between his fingers and borrowed a lighter from someone next to him.

The flame jumped between Zhao Lue's slender fingers, licking the cigarette butts vaguely.

Wang Xichen looked at it at the time and stretched out his hand to block the wind for Zhao Lue.

But Zhao Lue got angry: "Why didn't you stop me!?"

Wang Xichen was a little amused: "If you don't want to smoke, then don't smoke. Even if you smoke, so what? Even Ye Feiyu has smoked before, you are the only one who has never smoked."

Zhao Lue lit the cigarette. The smell of high-end cigarettes was not choking, but it was slightly bitter.

Wang Xichen heard Zhao Lue's inaudible voice: "My mother had an abortion, and it is said that... it was successful."

Wang Xichen shuddered, and felt that the sparks were not burning the cigarette butt, but his body.

A gust of wind blew, and he almost disappeared with the ash.

"What do you say... am I?" Zhao Lue sneered, with unconscious coldness and indifference on his face.

Wang Xichen was at a loss under such a gaze. When he tried to comfort Zhao Lue with a pale face, Zhao Lue suddenly laughed out loud.

Zhao Lue turned around and gestured to the others: "I won! Wang Xichen really believed it!"

The others laughed.

Zhao Lue hugged Wang Xichen and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Brother Xichen, don't you think about it, how could my mother bear to let me go - Brother, are you angry?"

Zhao Lue walked away to play with his friends, leaving Wang Xichen's flames suddenly extinguished, replaced by the chill that penetrated into his bones.

He was like a naked man standing in the snow, with Zhao Lue's gentle words filling his ears - what am I?

The feeling at that time was just like now, Wang Xichen sat in the car and smoked a cigarette.

Maybe he thought too much, he thought.

Zhao Lue is Zhao Lue.

A spark of fire suddenly went out in front of him, and the headlights were bright instead.

The lights in Wang's underground garage fell into darkness, and only the headlights illuminated the wall in front.

In that small piece of light, a figure appeared.

Wang Xichen's car window was knocked.

A person stood outside and said to Wang Xichen through a small gap in the smoke: "Hello, Mr. Wang, I am a member of the SCP-SUA Foundation's executive team. Our mission is to collect unreasonable items in the world. Can you cooperate with us in the relevant investigation?"

Wang Xichen: "Get lost."

The Foundation staff was calm and said: "Regarding [SUA-014 Life Toll Station] and [SUA-015 Nightmare Meat Pipeline], we have a guess with a probability of more than 90%."

Wang Xichen put out the cigarette. ▼This work is organized and uploaded by netizens on the online reading site of Si Tu.

The staff continued, "We can confirm that their containment failure is related to Zhao Lue, the son of the Zhao family. Someone is using these two containment objects to promote the further awakening of Zhao Lue."

Wang Xichen opened the car door, looked directly into the eyes of the visitor, and said, "It's Lin Xingtao."

The visitor paused and said, "Do you mean that the person is Lin Xingtao? Or is Zhao Lue going to awaken into Lin Xingtao? We have a Dr. Lin in our foundation. I don't have the authority to know his name, but I suspect he is also related to the containment failure."

"We have a containment object [Any Door That Is Not Random at All], which is now installed on your car door. You can go to our foundation as long as you get off the car."

Wang Xichen got out of the car.

His eyes blurred, and he instantly came to a space full of the cold smell of steel.

This space has many rooms, and he is in one of them.

He didn't have time to look closely, and only saw a display screen in front of him.

There are words on the display screen:

Project number: SUA-043　　I want to convey my feelings to you across the world

Description: A small space of one by one by one that is invisible and intangible. The air content is slightly higher than normal. It is tasteless, colorless, and remains condensed and not dispersed. Any object, including the [Principle of Cutting the Ring], cannot destroy it.

The executed personnel found a telephone booth that had not been used for a long time and made the wrong judgment that the telephone was the containment object.

When carbon-based life is in it, it often feels a strong urge to express its feelings. Once this feeling is shouted out, it will be conveyed to carbon-based life in another world through SUA-043. After the doctor's experiment, as long as you think of a specific existence when expressing your feelings, your feelings can be accurately conveyed to that existence. There seem to be many forms of communication. In most cases, the communicator will see the image of the person being conveyed.

[Deleted.]

The doctor's casual record: [Fool! Listen to my heart! This is my last and serious feeling! You must accept it and believe me! Otherwise, I will not let you go, big fool! ]

M [deleted]: [So, Doctor, what kind of tone is this from anime tsundere heroine? Also, when did the Doctor have friends in another world? Did the Lord of SUA-002 give the Doctor the opportunity to travel through time? Is the Doctor a spy?]

A line of text was deleted in the middle.

“The Doctor deleted it. The Doctor’s authority is second only to M, so only M knows what it was originally.”

“Where is M?”

"In the arena."

"Where's Dr. Lin?"

"Seems to be in the arena, too."

Wang Xichen followed the staff's instructions and stood in the air where the containment was. He wanted to talk to Zhao Lue, but when he stood firm, another person's figure appeared in front of him.

He saw...himself.

Wang Xichen from another world.

The ridiculously young Prince Wang was heading to the airport.

He was going to study at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

At this moment, he suddenly showed a look of shock and confusion.

He heard his own voice shouting in his mind:

"——Go to Nan University! Go to Nan University! Go to Nan University! Go to see Lin Xingtao! He is Zhao Lue, a member of the Zhao family!"

When Wang Xichen recalled it later, he would only feel that this was an unreasonable impulse.

Just like when he was a child, he was obsessed with knowing who would have gotten the candy that was robbed from him.

[I went to Nan University to study on impulse, but found that Lin Xingtao was just an ordinary person who knew nothing. I felt that my actions were not worth it. ]
