I, Zhongli, Wander the World

Zhongyuan Zhong, who was only one step away from social death, pushed Adam away from the campus.

Like a common gangster in Yokohama, he pushed people into the alley and said through gritted teeth, "The origin, purpose, and follow-up actions, I'll give you a minute to explain."

Adam, who is a tall European in appearance, looked down at Zhongyuan Zhongya with some difficulty, and said politely: "Would you like to introduce yourself again? Okay, this machine belongs to..."

"Not those messy things!" Zhongyuan Zhongyao said tiredly, "Well, starting from your identity, you are a robot?"

The strange name of "this machine", coupled with the somewhat mechanical wording and official number, although it is incredible, there is still a bold guess in the Central Plains.

Adam confirmed his guess, "Yes, this machine is the first type of self-help thinking computer made by Dr. Wollstone Crackoff. The purpose of coming to Mr. Nakahara this time is to ask you to assist me in arresting yours. Brother, Paul Verlaine."

"...?" Zhong Yuanzhong's head was full of question marks for a name he had never heard before, "Who is it?"

In the past few years, Zhongyuan Zhong has also done a lot of investigations on his own life experience and also on Leibo Street. With the convenience of the detective agency, he reluctantly found out his identity as an experimental subject, and even ran around in the Edogawa River. With the help of him, he found traces of being a human being, but he had never heard that he had a European brother.

"So that's the case, don't you understand at all?" Adam nodded clearly, "The priority has changed, please allow this machine to explain the cause and effect of the matter to you."

Then Zhongyuan Zhong also listened to the robot gushing about the love-hate relationship between Verlaine, who is an artificial superhuman personality, and his partner Rimbaud and the experimental body of Araba.

And the time is stuck at exactly one minute, not even a millisecond error.

Zhongyuan Zhong, who received a lot of information in a short period of time, also said with a big head: "So, that Verlaine recognized me as his younger brother because he was also a power experimenter, and because of this, he turned against his old partner Rimbaud, and now he is with him. His old partner fights all over the world, and is about to hit Yokohama recently?"

"To be exact, we almost confirmed the death of Arthur Rimbaud. During those years, Verlaine kept walking in the gaps of various countries and assassinated many important people. Until Rimbaud suddenly appeared in South America three years ago. Only by appearing and chasing Verlaine did the upper echelons of Europe determine Rimbaud's survival." Adam said flatly, "But the strange thing is that after that, Rimbaud ignored all contacts from Europe, and just focused on fighting with Verlaine all over the world. . Battlefields from South America to Africa, and even through Russia and Australia.”

"Ah, by the way, their battle in Australia destroyed an entire plain, which happened to be a hare colony, and the local farmers are thankful that the storm that came from out of nowhere has flattened the rabbit hole..."

"No, you don't have to tell me this." Zhongyuan Zhong also said blankly.

"The native means, they are dangerous, and they brought that danger to Yokohama."

Adam said earnestly: "This machine has seen from the e-book that a certain transformation can make human beings more aware of intangible things. Now this machine is using this analogy to try to make Mr. Nakahara understand that if no action is taken, Yokohama It's the next Australian rabbit hole."

This sounds a bit like a threat of coercive cooperation. Zhongyuan Zhong also stared at the robot who didn't know whether it was a fake or a real black belly, but Adam on the opposite side refused to let it go. He also looked directly at Zhong Yuan Zhong's unfriendly gaze, and even tilted his head and pulled out a perfect revealing eight. toothy smile.

"I beg you?"

Zhongyuan Zhongya, who was facing the Uncanny Valley, almost didn't catch his breath.

"Don't show this expression, it's too scary... No, after all, why do you need my assistance? Just based on that unilaterally identified 'brother' identity?"

Adam took back the shape of the artificial leather as if he had changed his face, "Because in the past three years, Verlaine was not just being hunted down, that man still had enough energy to assassinate important figures from various countries while he was being hunted down. This is also the case in Europe. The agency wanted him as the main reason for his arrest."

"And since he can turn against his partner for Araba, he will also contact you or your guardian when he still has the energy to spare."

"Wait." Zhongyuan Zhong also changed his face slightly, "You mean he will still go to see Mr.?"

"Mr. Zhongli is a strong man of the same level after all. In fact, if Verlaine wants to take you away, a confrontation with Mr. Zhongli is almost inevitable." Adam said affirmatively, "This is one of the reasons why I came to you. , the attitude of Rimbaud, who was chasing Verlaine, is unclear and cannot constitute cooperation. If a cooperative relationship can be established with Transcendence through Mr. Zhongyuan, both the mission success rate and the safety of both parties will be greatly improved."

Zhongyuan Zhong also gave a "tsk" with a headache.

"I can't easily believe what you said now." Finally, the ochre-haired boy said, "I need to discuss it with someone. If you want to know the result, you can go to the detective agency with me first."

In short, please walk around to see the truth of this person,

He also has a small partner in the Central Plains, and he will not be stupid enough to carry such a big thing alone.

Adam did not show any reluctance, but instead showed an extraordinarily artificial excitement, "Oh, this is what humans call an interview. This machine knows that I didn't expect a robot without voting rights to be interviewed by humans."

"Do you need this unit to prepare anything? Resume? Opening remarks? How about this unit plan to say it again?"

"A battle plan on how to arrest Verlaine and test Rimbaud's betrayal..."

After trying to sell his robot "Papa" according to anthropology, he finally received a warning from Zhongyuan Zhongya before pushing the door into the detective agency.

"You're so noisy!" The ochre-haired boy said while pushing the door, "I don't trust you yet. It's useless if you say more, I won't take it lightly..."

His voice gradually weakened as he saw the strange and familiar man in the detective agency.

"Oh! Tachibana-kun!" Edogawa Ranbu, who was impatiently receiving men, immediately stood up to say hello, "Although I know it's been a few days, you're too unlucky, Tachibana-kun, do you want to watch a TV show and choose one? Lucky numbers?"

The young man said with a smile, and with his happy greeting, the man who was sitting upright opposite also looked at the door.

Arthur Rimbaud.

A transcendent whose position is unclear, who has obviously recovered his memory, but insists on not contacting France.

Chinatown at the same time.

Zhong Li walked out of an antique shop holding a small wooden box, with a feather-combed thrush on his shoulder.

Due to his vast knowledge, he is occasionally invited to be a mediator of certain things. For example, this time, he was originally just walking the birds leisurely on the street, but he was sincerely invited by the owner of the antique shop to appreciate an antique stove that had been in dispute for them.

Xuande furnace has ten furnaces and nine fakes, and this one is no exception. After Zhongli even made the exact copy of which master from which dynasty, which generation, which workshop, the customer who originally wanted to cheat money with the high imitation fake stove hurried away with the stove. The boss who was almost deceived thanked him a lot and gave a small jade pendant as a gift.

After coming out of the antique shop, he should have continued to walk the birds, but instead of going along the original planned route, Zhongli turned around and walked towards China Street near the pier.

Little Thrush moved his feet uneasily on his shoulders.

The water vapor in the air became more and more obvious. Zhong Li stopped on an open road where he could see the coastline in the distance, and said in a low voice, "Although this is not the best place to talk, it is much more suitable than the noisy urban area. Are you sure you can't talk about it?"

The sea breeze gently blew the salty smell of the sea water, and the empty road was silent. Zhong Li closed his eyes and waited quietly for a while, when he heard a low chuckle coming from the alley behind on the right.

"This is really... surprising." The blond man stepped out of the shadows step by step, "I didn't expect those so-called transcenders and guardians of Zhongya in the information to be not human?"

This was an accident Verlaine never imagined.

Across the paper, all descriptions define Zhongli as a powerful ability user, who is suspected to have the ability to control the mountains and the earth. Almost all of Verlaine's previous preparations were based on these assumptions.

But he didn't expect that under a face-to-face, the majestic and deep breath of the other party would tell him a completely different answer.

The form of existence that is almost at one with the earth under the non-human senses is definitely not human.

This prompted Verlaine to change his original plan, making him involuntarily stand in front of Zhongli at the moment when he should not have appeared.

Zhong Li in front of him turned around and stared straight at him with golden eyes, "Left and right do not walk in the world, what's the difference between right and wrong?"

"There is no difference..." Verlaine repeated this sentence softly, and suddenly laughed.

"...It's really an attitude that makes people angry." He looked at Zhongli as if he was looking at a fellow who had gone astray, "I see how you get along with those humans, are you just misleading? Is it? You think that existences like us can coexist peacefully with human beings?”

"For those humans, aliens are always aliens, they can be weapons, they can be props, but they are not equal."

"No difference? Haven't you ever been treated differently by that group of humans?"

Zhongli raised his eyebrows.

do not have it?

It must be - impossible.

Whether it is the years of conquest as the Demon God of Rock, or the thousands of years of guarding Liyue Harbor as the Emperor of the Rock, people fear the Demon God, respect the Rock God, and even the arrogance of those who do not respect the Immortal God.

Morax, who has ruled Liyue for a thousand years, has endured far more sights than anyone imagined.

However……

"I look at people in the world for profit, running around for a living, and being troubled by love, but I'm just in different situations. How can people look at me like this?" Zhong Li said lightly, "Looking at me in a mirror is nothing more than this."

He was a man, then a god, and then a man again.

Morax, who has experienced all kinds of situations in the world, knows better than anyone how to feel and how to be a real "human".
