The appearance of Chen Chen naturally aroused the vigilance of the soldiers in the car.
Several guns stretched out from it, but the next second, the eyes of the two senior military officials showed a look of confusion. They lowered their arms and walked out of the car door, leaving their seats in the car vacant.
Chen Chen smiled and sat directly in the back seat of the car.
At this point, in addition to the soldier driving the car, the woman who followed Zhao Shanhe sat in the co-pilot, while Chen Chen and Zhao Shanhe sat in the back seat of the military vehicle.
Immediately, the vehicle drove towards the center of New York again.
"I have to say that the power of your civilized principles is truly incomprehensible."
Chen Chen looked at Zhao Shanhe beside him, "Manipulate people's thoughts and make them become marionettes to do whatever you want. No wonder you can single-handedly create the Earth Federation. With this ability alone, you are already invincible. . ”
"But the power of civilized principles cannot affect you."
Zhao Shanhe took a deep look at Chen Chen, he held his hands slightly, and was also secretly wary of Chen Chen, "But after thinking about it carefully during this period, I found that there are still many flaws in your rhetoric. I dare to assert that you are not at all The last holder of the key to the plane! So who are you?"
Chen Chen nodded, "I didn't intend to lie to you for long. Yes, I am indeed not the previous holder of the plane key, but as long as you know, I can help you."
"If someone whose identity you don't even know says he wants to help you, would you believe it?"
Zhao Shanhe chuckled and said, "What's more, why do you insist on cooperating with me? You just have some conspiracy against me."
Hearing this, Chen Chen couldn't help laughing. A flash of pity flashed in his eyes, "Do you really want to know who I am? If you do, I'm afraid you will regret it."
Zhao Shanhe still looked at Chen Chen intently, as if Chen Chen would not cooperate unless he revealed his identity.
Seeing this, Chen Chen thought for a moment and then said, "Tell me, what year was it in the real world when you came to the "Odd Evil" plane?"
Zhao Shanhe frowned, but still said, "It was 2002, what?"
"I'm from 2040."
Chen Chen immediately said, "I am 38 years old, and it has been 20 years since I got the plane key. I was a student in the Department of Biology, Shangdu Jiaotong University, and when I got the plane key, I got it in Professor Wang Xi's class..."
Hearing Chen Chen's words, Zhao Shanhe's expression changed drastically. Even the woman in the passenger seat turned around in disbelief and stared at Chen Chen, "No, you lied to us, right? You must have over-investigated. , so they concocted this kind of lie to deceive us!”
Chen Chen ignored the woman in the front row, he just looked at Zhao Shanhe silently.
Zhao Shanhe's expression was a little gloomy. He stared into Chen Chen's eyes, trying to see whether Chen Chen had any signs of lying, but he was disappointed.
Chen Chen's eyes were pure black, like a dark pool, unable to distinguish between truth and lies.
"No, you must have lied to us, definitely!"
The woman in the front row screamed even louder. She even broke down and was about to take out her lightsaber, but was stopped instantly by Zhao Shanhe.
Seeing this, Chen Chen continued slowly, "You founded the Earth Federation in 1993, but due to the infection with antimemes, the entire Earth Federation completely forgot about your existence. Only a quantum computer still maintains the fragile alliance... "
"Because you knew you might die, you left an image in Adam. The image hinted at a hidden crisis. At the same time, you suspected that your predecessor was Professor Wang Xi, but for some reason you couldn't explain it clearly. Therefore, we can only use means to store your student certificate in the campus server. Only by investigating the entire network can we find the only trace of your existence, and Professor Wang Xi’s name is also on it... "
Chen Chen continued, "You left a reminder in the image that you were going to the "Odd Evil" plane. Am I right?"
Hearing this, Zhao Shanhe fell completely silent.
Chen Chen understood that it was normal for the two of them to react so strongly, because if what he said was true, it meant one thing - Zhao Shanhe was really dead in the "Odd Evil" plane.
"No, maybe it's a parallel universe!"
The woman in the front row still didn't want to believe it all. She emphasized, "It's a parallel universe, right? Aren't the worlds we constantly travel through parallel universes? We shouldn't die here, absolutely not!"
But Zhao Shanhe just smiled bitterly and shook his head. Only he understood that parallel universes do exist, but the plane key is as unique as the principles of civilization in his hand. If the mysterious young man in front of him is really his next holder Or, there is only one reason, that is, he is really dead...
He wanted to refute, but what the other party said was indeed his plan to stay in reality. Only the holder of the plane key could tell all this in detail, right
For a moment, Zhao Shanhe felt weak all over his body.
[No, I won’t necessarily die...]
But at this moment, Zhao Shanhe seemed to remember something. A dark light flashed in his eyes, and at the same time he thought in his heart, [He said that he was also affected by antimemetics. Doesn't that mean... If I adopt what I think in my heart? There may be a way, there may be a turning point...]
Thinking of this, Zhao Shanhe took a deep breath and cheered up, but on the surface he still laughed, "I don't know whether what you said is true or not, but since I am here, I am naturally prepared to die! "
"oh?"
Chen Chen suddenly looked at Zhao Shanhe with a half-smile, "You don't have to believe me, but everything I say is true. Now can you tell me everything you know?"
"What else do you want to know?"
Zhao Shanhe asked solemnly, "As long as I know something, I can tell you."
"All the secrets of the "Odd Evil" plane."
Chen Chen said, "And how you connected Professor Wang Xi with the plane key."
"That's a long story."
Zhao Shanhe's expression suddenly became solemn. He turned his head and looked at the black cloud across the sky in the distance, showing a sad look, "I was originally an ordinary college student... My parents are both from the mountains. For To support me in college, they pawned almost all the valuables in the family, including the land... "
"And I'm pretty good at it. I finally got into Shangdu Jiaotong University and entered the Department of Biology..."
“在入學那年，我認識了我的人生導師—王曦，他知道我家裏窮，平時很是照顧我，而且在得知我對電腦方面很感興趣後，便自己親自資助了我一臺computer."
However, when he said this, a trace of hatred appeared in Zhao Shanhe's eyes, "But I didn't expect that all of this was part of his plan. One day, I picked up a CD in his class. I originally I wanted to hand it in, but in the end I still wanted to go to the computer to see what was in it. At that time, I was still young and had a strong curiosity about everything... "
CD
Chen Chen's heart suddenly moved. He still remembered that Zhao Shanhe graduated in 1988, which meant that he went to college in 1984. At that time, there were indeed no storage tools like USB flash drives.
In other words, at that time, the plane key existed in the form of a disc
"So, I secretly took the CD back to the dormitory and put the CD into the computer when all my classmates were not around."
Zhao Shanhe didn't know what Chen Chen was thinking at this time. He just continued, "But I didn't expect that what was stored in it was actually a movie...a movie called "2001: A Space Odyssey"..."
Chen Chen's pupils shrank when he heard this. It turned out that Zhao Shanhe had obtained the black slate so early? But why is it this movie? The black slate is so precious. If you get it yourself, you will never want to hand it over to others.
Is there any more far-reaching plan behind the scenes
"Since then, my career has been out of control..."
Zhao Shanhe turned to look at Chen Chen, "I think you can guess what happened next. I easily reached the pinnacle of life by virtue of the principles of civilization, and easily entered the top level of the country. Then I discovered those movie planes in various movies. Humanity is in a state of extinction or on the verge of extinction. There are various clues in the pattern, so I gradually infer that human civilization is probably not far from extinction... "
"I didn't want my homeland to perish like the movie plane, so I single-handedly created the Earth Federation, hoping to use the power of uniting all mankind to deal with that crisis... But at the same time, I have been tracking this magical disc in my hand. Who left it behind? But when I investigated my mentor Wang Xi, I was surprised to find that Wang Xi had disappeared... "
Chen Chen's heart suddenly moved. He also remembered that when he first suspected that Professor Wang Xi was related to the USB flash drive, Professor Wang Xi also disappeared without a trace, just like the antimeme had wiped out the relevant information about Professor Wang Xi. everything of.
Now it seems that that incident was no coincidence.
"So, I started to continue investigating, and when I checked his home, I found a black box... "
Zhao Shanhe's expression at this time was slightly frightening, "I will never forget that day. There was something so terrifying in that black box... Fortunately, I relied on civilized principles to resist, and I was able to resist its invasion, but This also caused me to become antimemetic and could die at any time!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Chen immediately interrupted, "So, what's in that black box?"
"Can't say..."
Zhao Shanhe suddenly showed a strange expression. He put a finger to his lips with a look of fear, "If you tell me, I will die."
Chen Chen frowned.
"But I have to remind you."
Zhao Shanhe suddenly changed the topic again and said with a cold smile, "You must think that the principles of civilization in my hands are very powerful. I can even fight against antimemes, but you must know that even you are burning this in the plane key. Movies can't capture it either. The principle of civilization is actually as unique as the key to the plane."
When Chen Chen heard this, he immediately showed an expression of disbelief.
"If you don't believe it, you can go back and try."
Zhao Shanhe said nonchalantly, "By the way, since you have also been hit by antimemetics, it is obviously Wang Xi's masterpiece. He probably has a huge conspiracy and definitely has no good intentions."
Chen Chen could only nod his head, "I understand, what's next?"
"That's all."
Zhao Shanhe leaned back in his seat and began to close his eyes to rest, "I have told you everything I can know."
"There is also the "Odd Evil" plane."
Chen Chen frowned, "Tell me, why are you here?"
"I just noticed that this seat has traces of memes."
Zhao Shanhe closed his eyes and replied, "It has been five years since this movie was released. I discovered the existence of this movie very early. Then out of curiosity, I tried to burn the movie into the plane key, and it turned out to be successful. ”
"It's just that I didn't plan to enter here originally. After all, the plot of this movie is too weird. But it wasn't until I got caught by an antimeme that I made a desperate move and came here to find a way to survive. Even if you assert that I will die in the future, I Still want to give it a try…”
"Understood."
Chen Chen nodded and said no more.
For a moment, the entire car was completely silent, leaving only the three people with ulterior motives, a controlled driver, and the roar of the car engine.
Chen Chen knew that most of the information disclosed by the other party was half-truth and half-false. At least he was clearly prepared for entering the black mist without hesitation.
However, Zhao Shanhe concealed the secret. As for the credibility of other words, there is obviously a question mark.
Half an hour later, the military vehicle completely arrived in front of the black fog and stopped here.
Zhao Shanhe apparently unknowingly activated the power of the black slate, and the troops stationed at the edge of the black fog gave way, allowing the cars to drive in unimpeded.
"Crunch!"
With the sound of brakes, Chen Chen and Zhao Shanhe got out of the car one after another, as well as the woman who gradually calmed down.
"Are you just going in with us alone?"
Zhao Shanhe looked at the calm black mist in front of him and suddenly turned around and asked, "If you can get the plane key and travel in all the major planes, you should have your own elite team."
“What number of people does it make sense to get in here?”
Chen Chen said calmly, "Besides, my people are special. They are all a group of robots. They can only help with ordinary things, but in this situation, they can't do anything."
"oh?"
Zhao Shanhe frowned and said, "In that case, then you can come with me, but I have to agree in advance that if you encounter a situation that even I cannot take care of, I will not sacrifice my life to help you."
"Of course."
Chen Chen nodded calmly, "Just rely on your ability, but before that, do you at least tell me about the dangers in the black fog?"
"Can."
Zhao Shanhe nodded and said solemnly, "My team went in to investigate before. Once the black fog covers this place, it will completely turn this area into a ghost town. There are many unexplainable things inside. You can You can think that the ones inside are ghosts, or you can think that they are a memetic effect, and the only way to avoid them is to close your eyes."
"Close your eyes?"
Chen Chen turned his head and looked at Zhao Shanhe, showing a surprised look.
"Yes, close your eyes."
With that said, Zhao Shanhe walked directly inside and said as he walked, "Remember, no matter what crisis you encounter inside, even if you will die on the spot in the next second, never open your eyes!"
With that said, he stepped straight into the black mist without giving Chen Chen a chance to continue asking!
The woman who followed Zhao Shanhe also walked in without hesitation.
Seeing the two people disappearing into the black mist, Chen Chen's somewhat puzzled expression immediately dissipated. He raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth, took a step, and completely entered the black mist.
