"There is a demon living inside me, and that demon wants to live a peaceful life."
The little painter smiled, his eyes always on his drawing board.
"He hopes to fall in love, get married, have a small family, and become an ordinary painter like normal people, and support his family with meager painting fees every day."
"He wants to leave this place completely and never come back. He wants to abandon his belief in art. What do you think he is if he is not a devil?"
Those blue eyes followed the brush as it moved on the drawing board.
The entire underground temple is his masterpiece.
Lu Wen and Wu Yu walked further inside step by step.
Walking slowly.
Failure to understand your opponent's intentions is the most fatal thing.
Lu Wen speculated in his mind about the relationship between the little painter and No. 0.
friend? Relatives? Or... the little painter replaced the code name Zero
"What's your relationship with Zero?"
Wu Yu had the most doubts in his heart, and the information he knew was not as comprehensive as Lu Wen's.
So he was the first to ask.
"He is my teacher, a man who knows all the knowledge in this world."
It turned out to be master and apprentice.
Before Wu Yu could speak again.
The little painter suddenly stopped the brush in his hand and looked up at the two of them, with his long golden hair hanging down in front of his forehead.
He turned the drawing board in front of him and presented it to the two of them.
The picture is very dull.
White background.
Portraits of several people.
It seemed that before he could describe it carefully, he was interrupted by the arrival of Lu Wen and Wu Yu.
"Me, you, Xia Chuluo, Jiang Xiaonian, himself, and a 0, a total of six people's portraits."
The light was dim, so Lu Wen introduced Wu Yu one by one.
"There is a deviation in the calculation. According to the teacher's earlier calculation, the probability of the four of you arriving together is as high as 74%." The little painter shook his head gently, "But there are only two visitors today. Probability cannot be trusted."
He picked up the brush and dabbed it with a little red paint.
Then he pointed to Lu Wen’s portrait.
"dummy."
The brush lightly painted on Lu Wen's portrait, and it soon turned into a red patch.
Very bright red and a little sticky.
Immediately, the brush moved to Xia Chuluo's portrait.
"patient."
Xia Chuluo's portrait was also painted in red.
Can't tell what the original looked like.
The young painter pointed at Wu Yu's portrait, looked at him carefully, and spoke with a faint smile.
"fraud."
Lu Wen turned his head and glanced at Wu Yu, and found that Wu Yu's brows were frowning.
"Why do you say you are a liar? Have you met before?"
"No, I have no interaction with him."
Judging by the tone, this sentence is probably true.
But Wu Yu must be hiding something.
Everyone has his own secret, no need to delve into it, he will tell it himself one day.
The paintbrush moved to Jiang Xiaonian's picture.
"Faust... no..." the young painter thought for a moment, "just a clown."
The brush moved to his own portrait.
"artist."
He said these words with great satisfaction.
Then he painted his own portrait into a ball of red.
The brush comes to the 0 symbol.
The little painter thought for a long time, frowned and said nothing.
The brush rested on that drawing board for a long time.
at last.
Slowly draw a red question mark.
"You don't know the identity of No. 0 either?" Wu Yu asked.
"Teacher is everywhere. He can be anyone. His identity is not important to him."
That 0 was also erased by the little painter.
On the white drawing board, six scarlet graffiti looked very dazzling.
"Lu Wen, you started to doubt me a long time ago. No, you doubted the devil. Let me think about it... That time I sent you a text message to lie to you that there was a sound underground, or that time I gave you a message by the South Lake Do you provide information about the teacher?”
Lu Wen did suspect him early on, but there was no evidence.
Zero seemed to deliberately want to expose this little guy, so he asked him several times to deliver news to Lu Wen.
"The teacher said that you are not very smart, but your learning ability is very strong, surpassing most of the bionic people he has seen, so you will become stronger and stronger, but Xia Chuluo has limited your development space, she can All I can teach you is experience.”
"But she doesn't do things by experience, but by her smart mind, so you can't learn much from her."
"What, you want me to join you?" Lu Wen smiled, really finding it funny.
"The teacher's original intention was just to dismantle you and do a research he has been doing for a long time. Later, he felt that you were valuable, so he planned to dismantle you after pushing you to the position of a member of parliament."
The little painter's speaking style is exactly the same as that of Number Zero.
He told me directly what he had planned.
It won't be hidden at all.
"I'm just here to represent myself, or the devil in me, and invite you to join." The little painter gently put down his brush, "That devil thinks you are a very good person. He has been wandering for more than ten years and rarely sees you. You are such a good person, so I don’t want to see you die.”
"You know it's hard for androids to die, right?"
"Yes, but I believe that the teacher has the ability to find all your data backups, so you... can't escape death."
Can't agree.
The young painter and Lu Wen couldn't come to an agreement.
Lu Wen also couldn't get along with him.
"Actually, I'm curious about your current state, your second personality?"
Many senior executives, as well as some physicians, do not recognize the existence of multiple personalities.
Lu Wen occasionally watched the lecture videos recorded by old executives to interns. Many experienced executives told the interns with certainty that there is no such thing as multiple personalities. The so-called multiple personalities are just rumors and movies. Novels and other literary and artistic works have become myths.
The multiple personalities that the old executive officer had seen were all put on by criminals to avoid trial.
The Executive Board sometimes has medical scientists give lectures.
They also said that most of the multiple personalities they had come across were fake, some were on drugs, and a very few were mentally unstable. They had never seen a real multiple personality.
"Over-interpretation and psychological implications."
This is what an old professor said to an intern during a certain lecture.
Of course there are some who believe it exists, but very few.
"Most of the people who recognize multiple personalities are teenagers. They have a strong and even pathological pursuit of this disease. They seem to think it is very... in their words, cool."
The old professor's words remained in Lu Wen's memory chip.
But he was not a man who believed in authority.
He was skeptical about many things, especially after knowing that Yin Long was the real time traveler.
Time travel is possible, and multiple personalities don't seem to be impossible.
"I am me, the only personality of this body. As for the devil who wants to live an ordinary life... he occasionally appears in my dreams."
Can't tell the difference between a dream and a dream
Or is it that Zero deliberately guided the young painter
From a very young age, he began to give psychological hints to the little painter, artificially causing the little painter to separate into the second state
