The man wearing sunglasses combed his short golden brown hair and finally got permission to enter the room.
As he walked, he complained:
"Lan, on all the dust, who would take care of my hair like I do, always neatly combed? Well, except you.
"You still despise the lack of symmetry."
The female voice sounded again, no longer so cold:
"Remember, Welf, don't take your sunglasses off or I'll definitely dig them out.
"It's hard to believe that the effect of genetic improvement is so poor on you. You are simply a defective product."
While speaking, her figure appeared in the living room.
She was wearing a white shirt, blue denim, matching trousers, and a broad-brimmed top hat, all the details were symmetrical.
This includes her oval face, willow eyebrows, long black hair and bright eyes.
Normally, the human face and even the body cannot be perfectly symmetrical, and there will always be some flaws, but Xu Lan is not. She is like the work of a master artist, which can be folded along the central axis, just overlapping, no more or less .
This made her feel less natural and more traces of artificial transformation.
Welf, who was accused of being a defective product, was angry, but he didn't dare to show it, he could only mumble:
"Lan, actually I don't quite understand. Why do you keep fine-tuning your body? Anyway, you can't see yourself and won't be controlled by the damn obsessive-compulsive disorder."
"Don't tell me to never look in the mirror? This is such a cruel thing for a lady." Even if Xu Lan smiled, she had been tempered, and the corners of her mouth were upturned exactly the same.
Welf did not dare to refute, and instead said:
"But there is no need to spend so much time adjusting clothes and hairstyles, going out for a walk, fighting once, and it must be asymmetrical again."
Xu Lan sneered:
"Silly logic.
"You pull out everything you eat every day, so you don't have to eat?"
While speaking, she turned her attention to the glass coffee table not far away.
On the coffee table, there is an identical water cup on the left and the right, and the same red jewelry box, with a tablet in the middle supported by a support frame.
A thin dark red line hangs down from the camera position of the tablet, which perfectly bisects the whole.
Welf was indignant and decided not to partner with this damn obsessive woman on the next mission.
In the silent curse, he thought of other colleagues.
That's really nasty in its own way, and it's hard to describe.
A timid and weak person will always make people around him want to bully him.
Welf restrained his mind, watched Xu Lan light up the screen, and released the lock.
The strictly symmetrical lady then opened a telegraph simulation software and entered a string of numbers.
When the corresponding icon of the tablet shows that there is no network, Xu Lan directly selects "connect".
The LCD screen suddenly dimmed, as if all power was lost in an instant.
It didn't take long for the screen to light up again, and a blurry figure appeared.
The figure stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, and the lights were bright outside, like a galaxy falling to the surface.
A little further, there are towers dimly rising into the sky.
"Have you found the target?" The silhouette made a sound amid the frequent snowflakes around.
"Yes, 'Doctor'." Xu Lan lowered her head and replied respectfully.
On the one hand, she did this to express her respect and fear, and on the other hand, she did not want to witness the picture that made her blood rush to her head:
"Doctor" did not stand in the middle of the floor-to-ceiling window, but turned a little to the left!
Welf did not bow his head, and said with the same respectful attitude:
"I've found where the target is hiding, but they seem to be aware of that too."
"So you withdrew again?" The vague figure clearly understood Welf's style of conduct.
His tone became serious:
"Lan, you immediately take this tablet and go to the target's hideout with Welf.
"Be sure to lock them down!"
"Yes, 'Doctor'!" Xu Lan answered without hesitation.
In Zizzi's voice, she picked up a red jewelry box on the coffee table and opened it with a snap.
Inside is an antique gold ring.
…
Shang Jianyao led Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen back to the rental house where Genawa was.
"Have you found anything?" Jiang Baimian spoke a little faster than normal.
Genova moved his metal neck from side to side:
"No, everything is fine there."
Jiang Baimian nodded lightly and said:
"It does look like a trap over there.
"The information we have inquired is all modified memories."
Without waiting for Genava to respond, she directly gave the order:
"Target and his companions have locked us in and need to evacuate immediately.
"The details will be discussed in the car."
Soon, the "Old Tuning Team" recovered some of the cameras and got on their own jeep and the rented car.
This time, Genova followed Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao, and listened to them tell about the harvest at Odick's house, the corresponding speculation, and what happened to Bai Chenlong and Yuehong.
"One is an awakener in the field of 'Last Man', the price is timidity and weakness, and the ability to read and modify memories on a large scale; the other is an awakener in the field of 'Golden Balance', the price is symmetrical obsessive-compulsive disorder, the ability is temporarily unknown ... Your inference can indeed explain all the current problems." The red light in Genova's eyes flashed many times, and he imported all the details into the corresponding model and made a complete analysis, "Our previous whereabouts have been exposed, and in the future Diverting again is the best way to determine when the enemy will come back and when it will strike."
In the face of such a dangerous enemy, we must seize the initiative.
Jiang Baimian glanced at the alley into which the vehicle had turned, and said with a smile:
"So, this time, we have to take more detours from deserted streets."
This avoids the tracking method of flipping through memories.
A red light flashed in Genova's eyes and said:
"The exits of these streets and alleys are actually relatively fixed, with only a few.
"If the other party spares no effort to expand the scope and look through the memories of every human near the exit, they will definitely be able to track us.
"We'd better make some camouflage for the vehicle in an unmanned area, and then go out when there are no 'witnesses' in a large area outside by sensing human consciousness.
"Unfortunately, the 'mind guide' of feeding does not involve memory, but only interferes with logical ability and thinking style."
In Genova's view, the current plan can also delay the enemy for a while and gain more preparation time for the team.
Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao, smiled and said:
"Don't be so troublesome."
The red light in Genova's eyes flashed again, and he didn't speak again.
After detouring from the green olive area to the red giant wolf area, the "old tune group" circled back to the green olive area again.
According to Jiang Baimian's instructions, Shang Jianyao parked the car in front of an ordinary apartment with only five floors.
This is the base of "True Self Teaching"!
Long Yuehong, who was on the jeep at the back, saw her eyes widen, not knowing why.
At this time, Jiang Baimian pushed the door and got out of the car, and said to himself:
"Let's rent a room here tonight."
Ah... as expected of you... Long Yuehong probably figured out Jiang Baimian's intentions:
Only a few people know about the stronghold of "True Self Teaching", which is disguised as an apartment that can be rented to the outside world.
So, it makes sense to come here to rent a house.
At that time, the "Old Tune Group" will really gain an advantage, and let the "true self-taught" people see hope, and they will definitely not help but step in.
Of course, the premise is that "True Self" will acquiesce to the actions of the "Old Tune Group" and allow them to rent a room here.
Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao took the lead in walking towards the apartment, but were not unexpectedly stopped by members of the "True Self Sect" disguised as a doorman.
"We want to rent a room." Jiang Baimian was very direct.
The guard was stunned and said:
"You wait here, I'll ask the owner of the apartment."
He turned around and hurriedly looked for someone who could call the shots.
After about seven or eight minutes, he returned to the door and said to the members of the "Old Tune Group" with no expression:
"Come in, the occupant of a room on the top floor just moved out."
He didn't mention how much the rent was.
Jiang Baimian laughed and smiled very beautifully:
"thanks."
The "Old Tuning Team" found a place to park the vehicle, and after entering the room on the top floor, Shang Jianyao threw the tactical backpack in front of him.
He opened the zipper and took out the "Angel of Life" necklace.
For this, he had to stand on one foot.
Shang Jianyao immediately threw the silver necklace to Jiang Baimian.
"Huh?" While Jiang Baimian stretched out his left hand to catch it, his right arm sagged weakly.
This is the item that the company has pointed out that can be used to fight against danger, and she feels that it can be used to the greatest effect in the hands of the strongest person in the group.
Shang Jianyao smiled at her and said:
"I'm afraid the target and his companions will use the power of 'Nightmare'.
"With this necklace, you can protect against that risk to a certain extent."
The reason is correct, but... Jiang Baimian asked:
"how about you?"
Shang Jianyao didn't answer immediately, and grabbed the "Six Senses Pearl" from the tactical backpack.
He threw it to Long Yuehong:
"You take it."
"I can't use it." Long Yuehong's eyes instantly turned red after reaching out to catch it.
As an ordinary person, he only suffers negative effects.
"It has some weird aura in the Buddhist Holy Land, and it has a certain probability to help you reduce the influence of 'nightmare', so you have to wear it all the time, even if you take a rest, you can't take it off." Shang Jianyao said very seriously.
After speaking, he didn't know which personality to switch to and smiled:
"When the time comes, your dreams will be messy, and the 'nightmare' may not bear to look directly at it."
"Okay..." Long Yuehong agreed hesitantly.
At this time, the honest Genava said worriedly:
"Will this lead to congestive necrosis?"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little awkward.
Fortunately, Shang Jianyao is not an ordinary person. He took out the little jade Buddha from his pocket and threw it to Bai Chen:
"It also has its own uniqueness."
Bai Chen thought for a while and said:
"Would you like me and Xiaohong to exchange items
"That kind of torment, I have suffered, I am used to it, and I can endure it."
This time, she spoke candidly about her past encounters, and there was no trace of strangeness on her face.
"Also." Shang Jianyao was as good as a stream.
Waiting for Bai Chen and Long Yuehong to exchange good items, Jiang Baimian looked at Shang Jianyao with doubt and concern and said:
"You have given us all the special items, what do you do with yourself?"
Shang Jianyao looked around and said with a smile:
"I have Mr. Du Heng and Xiaochong to help."
He emphasized the words Xiaochong.
Jiang Baimian immediately understood his true meaning:
In his "Sea of Origins", there is a real smell of Xiaochong left!
