Three-stream detection simulator

In the game "Third-rate Detective Simulator", the name of the CEO of Apocalypse is Argos.

In Greek mythology, Argos is a hundred-eyed giant, so things related to eyes and supervision will use it as a name - the eyes of the Sky Eye Society focus on superhumans, and the eyes of Apocalypse Company are all over the earth.

Hercule feels that almost all technology leaders in the cyber world view have similar settings: every camera you pass by, every web page you log in, every word you say and write, every thing you have done and are about to do, are integrated by the invisible network and finally transmitted to a certain person or artificial intelligence desk.

Argos of Apocalypse Company is the person sitting behind the desk.

Sky Eye Society... Hercule is not sure whether the same name of the two is a coincidence. Will the words of New York Director George Stacy, "coincidences are mostly inevitable", come true at any time in the current situation?

In addition, he just repeated the words "May the residual warmth of the universe guide you" twice, one of the purposes is to tease others to satisfy himself, and the second purpose is because this sentence reminds him of the murderer of the New York arson case.

When Black Widow relayed SHIELD's request, she wanted Hercule to meet with the fire investigator of the arson case. Before this could be implemented, the detective flew to Hawaii for vacation.

However, Hercule had a good memory. Batman had played him a video of the fire investigator's speech, and now he can still repeat every word of it:

"The entire surface of our planet is burning with invisible flames. The gravitational waves generated by the bending of space-time are its flames, and the dark matter that fills the universe is the ashes it throws away when it ignites the stars. When God withdraws His grace, this flame will stop jumping, and the future of mankind will fall into a boundless emptiness and darkness..."

The words of the fire investigator seem to echo the codewords of the Yuwen Church.

Yuwen, Yuwen, only when the flame is extinguished will it leave Yuwen. Does this mean that the Yuwen Church is hinting that the earth is about to be destroyed and the fire of human civilization will be cut off from now on?

...It sounds scary, but considering that the one who spread this statement is a cult organization, it makes people feel that it is no big deal.

If the connection between the Church of Remaining Warmth and the fire investigators is confirmed, it may be said that the tentacles of Apocalypse not only cover the east and west coasts, but also include the Hawaiian Islands. In order to achieve some unknown goal, they gradually developed into a giant like the one in the game on the unfamiliar earth.

Hercule had a strange feeling-

The rise of Apocalypse in the game is repeating itself.

But on the other hand, if the conspiracy is always attributed to Apocalypse, it seems to fall into the enemy's trap again.

Since there are speculations about parallel universes or future worlds, Hercule has opened the system panel from time to time to find the game worldview forgotten in the corner. The same as his impression is that there are three very well-known villains in "Third-rate Detective Simulator" among the player community.

They are also the three most influential business groups on the earth. Among them, Apocalypse has a long-standing reputation and was established the earliest. Due to the special nature of the industry, it has an almost unshakable absolute rule on the earth.

Following closely behind is Ark Pharmaceuticals.

Apocalypse is famous for its computers, artificial intelligence and network interconnection, while Ark Pharmaceuticals has the world's most advanced biological and chemical technologies, including agriculture, energy, medicine, and even biological and chemical weapons that are essential to human life.

Hercule was not very serious when he played the game and read the plot before he crossed over. At this time, he only vaguely remembered that it seemed to be mentioned in a certain side quest that Ark Pharmaceuticals was originally a subsidiary of Apocalypse.

Later, due to the disagreement of the management philosophy of the senior management, the boss of Ark Pharmaceuticals chose to resign directly and start a new business. During the war, they developed nanorobots targeting specific DNA chains and used them to pollute the water sources in the war zone, causing thousands of deaths overnight.

Water is living water, flowing into rivers and seas along the rivers and rushing to thousands of households. From that day on, there were rumors that Ark Pharmaceuticals became the marker of every human on the continent. As long as they modified the program of the nanorobots, they could kill anyone they wanted. Therefore, the chairman of Ark Pharmaceuticals had a nickname as people spread it by word of mouth, called the "Helmsman of the Styx".

This leads to the third question Hercule is thinking about, which is the title of the leader of the Yuwen Church, the "helmsman". The helmsman can refer to the captain, and sometimes also refers to the person in power of an organization, which coincides with the nickname of the boss of Ark Pharmaceuticals.

If it is a parallel universe or a future world, is Apocalypse the only gaming force that appears on Earth? Is the similar title of the leader of the Yuwen Church and the chairman of Ark Pharmaceuticals also a coincidence?

Or, could Ark Pharmaceuticals have appeared a long time ago, but they are hiding deeper than Apocalypse?

—— Hercule thought of the Owl Court and Pioneer Technology's plot against the Mechanical Heart.

The Mechanical Heart is a high-tech product driven by special energy.

Ark Pharmaceuticals covers the field of new energy in the game.

If the design of the pyramid that turned into a pipe refers to the headquarters building of Apocalypse, then the Mechanical Heart may be derived from another technical group, that is, Ark Pharmaceuticals.

But thinking this way means that Iron Man is related to the villain in "Third-rate Detective Simulator". Coincidentally, A.I.M. was funded by Stark, and the two did establish some kind of connection.

Hercule's mind could not help but come up with various hypotheses, such as the reversal of good and evil (there may be an evil Tony in the game), technology theft (someone successfully stole Stark's blueprints?)...or not that It's complicated. Maybe his guess was completely wrong. The background of the game and the earth he is currently on are not parallel at all.

Conjectures based on insufficient evidence are indeed just castles in the air.

"What are you thinking about?" Constantine asked Hercule, "I have an intuition that you are not too worried about the identity of the 'captain' and the life-sharing contract."

He found that during the exchange of information just now, only the detective seemed absent-minded.

Hercule came back to his senses. Although his concentration was not concentrated, it did not affect his ability to hear people's conversations clearly, so he could explain smoothly: "Excuse me, that's it - I personally don't think the enemy will In order to target you, choose to start from my side.”

The reverse is more likely.

Thinking in the worst direction, wouldn't Apocalypse Company or Ark Pharmaceutical really try to assassinate Constantine in order to get rid of Hercule? For them, this is a golden opportunity to exploit taboo loopholes.

Hercule now felt that Constantine was more unlucky than himself.

However, as a member of a non-minority group, Constantine had never heard of the four taboos and did not know about the novice protection period, so he was not convinced: "Why? You have to prove it to me."

Hercule was looking for an opportunity to set off to find the outside believers who had received his order to hide, in order to verify the connection between the Yuwen Church and the New York arson case, and to trace the traces of the existence of Ark Pharmaceuticals. Hearing this, he said happily: "Of course, we'll talk as we go - please go first."

Even though he found that the detective treated everyone equally, Constantine still couldn't get used to his polite tone, and occasionally he would have the illusion that he returned to London incognito.

The reason why I think of London is because the sincere irony that comes out of Hercule's mouth from time to time exudes the smell of British antiques from the last century. The reason why I am anonymous is because basically no one who has heard of Constantine's name will have a good look at him. …

In short, while Constantine could feel that Hercule was not as friendly as he seemed, he also realized sadly that very few people even pretended to be friendly to him.

The mage from Liverpool felt uncomfortable.

Somehow he felt that he was at odds with Hercule.

On the way, Master Wither was a little confused. He pointed at Hercule and asked Agent Bowen: "Why can he walk out of the police station so easily?"

Agent Bowen's mouth twitched: Of course it's because everything in Hawaii cannot be normalized at the moment.

Especially their team. Not staying with the FBI would be a good thing for the FBI.

Constantine is a bit of a masochist. Since the life-sharing contract couldn't be broken off in a short period of time, the more he felt uncomfortable being close to Hercule, the more he had to pretend to be indifferent and go up to chat.

As for Hercule - he had a keen eye for fire, a gentle attitude, and he accepted everyone who came.

Now standing on his left was Constantine, on his right was Alsop, the small leader of the Yuwen Church who was released from the police station to help guide the way, and behind him was the FBI agent with a bad face who had to help carry the luggage.

The three of them spoke to him from time to time. Alsop and the FBI agent insisted on calling him Captain. Constantine sometimes said 'Hercule' and sometimes called him 'Detective'.

Then the conversation seemed magical.

Constantine: "Actually, the effect of the captain's magic on you is very strange. Normally, you should completely become another person in the eyes of everyone, and you won't even keep your own name. You can't prove that you It's not you, and 'Hercule Hugo' becomes non-existent from now on..."

Halfway through his words, Alsop, the little leader who led the way, interrupted him rudely: "You'd better not mention that name, mage. I don't want to hear it."

"Don't mention what?" Constantine was confused and asked suddenly after a long time, "Hercule Hugo?"

Alsop glared at him and nodded silently.

"..."

Constantine said tentatively: "Hercules."

Alsop shivered unconsciously, his expression ferocious to cover up his fear: "Do you want me to pick you up and beat you up?"

Constantine changed his title nonchalantly: "Okay, then detective."

Alsop didn't refute this time - Hercule's Yu Wen Church intranet ID was 'Detective'. As a result, the FBI behind them said angrily: "What is wrong with you?! He is the captain!"

Do you have any mechanisms that are triggered by names?

Hercule rubbed his brows, Master Withered couldn't help but grin, and Agent Bowen took the recorder and planned to send the audio to his boss. Constantine vaguely understood: "I see, your name and identity cannot be taken away or replaced...Interesting."

In fact, after the exchange of intelligence, Hercule thought about this issue earlier.

He came to the conclusion that half of the names players give to their characters are fixed, and that the game he played was called "Third-rate Detective Simulator" after all, not "Third-rate Captain Simulator" or the unapproved "Cult." Boss Simulator".

Constantine also had his own ideas. But this guy was born with evil intentions. On the way, he would change his title every two minutes, periodically irritating the cult leader and FBI agents.

Being called the Detective of Hell was a humiliation for him.

Constantine's title should be 'The Mental Teasing Man'.

Master Blight once asked him with curiosity and a little ill intention: "Why don't you try calling him Captain?"

This way, the SHIELD agents can also join the battle.

Constantine bit his cigarette and said with a smile: "You are not dumb, man, why don't you try it yourself? Remember to be pious."

Agent Bowen didn't have time to stop this farce. Master Blight spoke faster than his brain, and changed his tone to a respectful one and called Hercule: "Captain Hugo."

After a few seconds, his expression gradually became dazed. Agent Bowen suddenly had an ominous premonition: "What happened to him?"

Constantine's smile widened: "It's what I wish for." He turned to Hercule and said, "Can you perform that again, the Yuwen Church codeword?"

Hercule was serious and had no intention of joking. But Agent Bowen watched him and said to Master Withered: "May the residual warmth of the universe guide your navigation direction."

Master Withered nodded in a daze.

Hercules showed more sympathy: "I hope your mind is still as agile as your eloquence just now. Do you remember who I am?"

Master Withered was much older than him, but at this moment he was like a newborn lamb: "I don't know... The people in the FBI office prison seemed to say 'Sir the Helmsman', do you mind if I call you that?"

"..."

Agent Bowen made a clear grinding sound, and his right hand couldn't help but touch his waist.

Constantine successfully brought the last normal person into the battle.
