Overturned Tower

"...a gap in time?"

This word that sounded too fantastical made Russell feel a bit confused for a while.

But Grandma Lan nodded very patiently and explained carefully: "Ms. Sai Lun mentioned this to me, and this is what the victim said.

"The first person to be killed was Director Lazaniel of Theosophy Heavy Industries; the second was Director Sisila from Ampoule Biomedical. After they were reborn, they both provided exactly the same testimony - their memory backups There was no malfunction in the program, but those memories were cut off out of thin air.

“They all said they had no grudge against Bad Sun, and they didn’t even see Bad Sun in their memories.

"On one day, I suddenly woke up from the body of a child. Only then did I realize that my predecessor was dead. But in the recovered memory, there was no memory of 'my own death', nor did I realize that my previous body was dead." They could never find where their body was. They could only check the blood stains and find the last location of the body... and from there they found the letter left for them by Bad Day.

"What's strange is that the time displayed on the Internet when the memory backup was triggered, the time when they were assassinated and killed, and the last time in their memories are all completely consistent. And the memories stored on the server have not been modified. Mark of.

Grandma Lan said seriously: "Do you know what this means, Ultramarine?

"——They seemed to die in a 'moment' and fell into the void of unconsciousness. Only when they were reborn did they realize that they were dead."

"I see……"

Ultramarine nodded slowly: "If this is true, it means that Bad Sun has the skills to ignore the resistance of all directors and kill anyone he wants to kill."

No wonder he is called "the most dangerous criminal in the world."

But this shouldn't be possible.

If Bad Day could really do such a thing, there would be no way he would be chased around.

"So it's impossible."

Grandma Lan sighed: "But this does not prevent the child from being wanted."

"But……"

"Actually, the elves are not sure that this thing was really done by Bad Sun. Although they used handwriting experts to verify that the letter was written by Bad Sun. But the detection may also be wrong. And to say the least, Even if the letter was really written by Bad Day, it doesn't prove that he did it.

"They have no grudge against Bad Sun, and have not even had contact with him... The directors are actually very aware of this matter, but they still chose to arrest Bad Sun."

Grandma Lan's meaning was very clear. She actually didn't think it was done by bad people.

But this kind of wanted status is the attitude that the elves must show.

So Russell reacted immediately.

"You know Bad Day?"

"Not only do I know Bad Day, but I also know your parents."

Grandma Lan said kindly: "You are very much like your mother...both are little cats who look very well-behaved but have quite evil intentions."

Hearing this, Russell felt guilty for a moment.

He didn't know how to refute Grandma Lan's words, so he could only continue to ask: "Then can you continue to tell me about bad days?"

"That kid from Bad Day was born in Taoyuan Island."

She said casually: "He used to be the eldest young master of the Nan family."

"Nan's family?"

Russell heard one word, and then noticed another important point: "Once?"

"Yes. This is called a 'surname'. It is something that a large family will add before a name because it has been passed down for a long time. A long time ago, it was a common custom to keep the surname in the name."

Grandma Lan nodded and pushed the tea she had made for Russell in front of him.

"In terms of relationship," Grandma Lan looked at Russell with a kind smile, "I'm still that child's aunt.

"Although we are not related by blood, I hugged him back then."

……No wonder.

Russell suddenly understood.

So last month, when Russell asked Bad Ri for a reliable intermediary, Bad Ri introduced Russell to Grandma Lan.

——When introducing the middleman to Russell, Bad Ri said that the old lady was trustworthy. But he won't come.

At that time, Russell was still wondering if Bad Day had another bad idea to trick him...

But now that I think about it, if he doesn't come back to see Grandma Lan, maybe there is an element of drawing a clear line between him and her.

Although I came here to ask for information about Kamalse.

But now, Russell has developed a stronger interest——

"So, why 'once'?"

"The free time has run out."

Grandma Lan looked at Russell with a smile: "The rest is the paid content."

"...How much does that cost?"

"for free."

The short old lady said lightly.

Hearing this, Russell's heart sank.

Things that cost nothing...that's the most expensive thing!

"Answer for answer. I want to ask you something... Of course, you can choose whether to answer. But as long as you choose to answer, you must tell the truth. No problem."

"……Can."

Russell thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

The first question Grandma Lan asked made him numb:

"Have you seen the deer-headed statue?"

Russell was silent for a long time and couldn't help laughing.

"Grandma Lan, you are too cunning."

This question doesn't need an answer at all.

The moment it asked, it already had the answer.

No matter how Russell answered, it was actually a response to another question: Was he from the Tower of Babel?

Even if Russell forcefully said "I don't know what you are talking about", the moment of surprise when he heard the question actually revealed the truth.

He is indeed a mature man.

Rabbits are also very scary when they get old.

——And from this question, Grandma Lan also revealed another piece of information.

That is, she knew the existence of the "deer head statue".

Then, if not a formal member of Babel, she is at least closely related to Babel.

Russell suddenly relaxed a little.

"Do I still need to answer this question?"

he asked rhetorically.

Even if Grandma Lan is credible, there is another person present after all.

"It's better to be cautious."

Grandma Lan looked at Russell happily: "I really want that boy to learn from you.

"But I can't say that about him...after all, his current personality is basically learned from your parents."

Immediately, the old lady was quiet for a while, sorting out her thoughts or recalling the past more than 20 years ago.

"I can't tell you exactly what happened at that time. I can only tell you... he left the Nan family in the first place because of his inner sense of justice."

"……sense of justice?"

Hearing this word from Bad Day, Russell felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Grandma Lan nodded with certainty: "His betrayal brought about a series of chain reactions, which eventually led to the death of many people... But although I can't say that what he did was right, I think it was right. At least it's not wrong.

"You should know his name. His real name is Nanliu Jing... which means sun."

"sun……"

Russell murmured.

I would like to see you in the south, and see you in the light.

He does know this poem, but he is not sure whether the meaning of "Southern Scenery" in this world is the same as what he knows.

"The title he first gave himself was called 'Evil Sun'. It was a somewhat self-deprecating title, taken from 'Everything in the world that is born with the energy of the sun has a poisonous sting.' He thought he was a A harmful person full of venom.

"Later, it was your father who gave him the code name of 'Bad Sun'. It means 'Corrupted Sun'. He readily accepted this name and made a clean break with his past.

"——Since then, he is no longer the Nanliu Jing of the Nan family."

I’m going to do nucleic acid analysis tomorrow morning, so I can’t sleep too late... I’ll write the second chapter after I get back from doing nucleic acid analysis. It might not be at 12:02, it will be a little later, but it will definitely be around 12 o’clock. I’ll post it when I finish. ~
