"Cough...I'm not..." The young man lowered the brim of his hat a little, as if trying to cover his face, and his tone revealed the final stubbornness, "Don't talk nonsense, I won't admit it."
It's just that the appearance is secretive, and there is no such domineering posture just now.
"That's it." Looking at the man, Bo Ye felt that whether it was his demeanor or tone, he looked more and more like that dark loli with a doll.
His heart relaxed, and the tense atmosphere around him completely dissipated.
Not only Bo Ye, but the other two also lifted the alarm in an instant.
"Your brother is very handsome." Gu Meng looked up and down at the person standing upstairs, and praised without hesitation, her tone was as kind as if she was gossiping, "I changed my vest, I almost didn't recognize him."
Man: "..."
Tang Zhi interjected, "I think, if Peter is here, he will be very shocked to see his little girlfriend having a sex change."
"Hey!" The man almost jumped when he heard this, and reacted fiercely, "Who is his little girlfriend?!"
It's a pity that the three men at the bottom of the stairs ignored him and chatted away on their own.
"I don't know how Peter is doing now?" Bo Ye seemed to be lazily supporting the railing beside him, and said indifferently, "After that unlucky child left us, I wonder if he has grown?"
Gu Meng said: "I hope he can hug the right thigh in the game, otherwise it will be too easy to deceive."
Tang Zhi leaned on the railing with his upper body, tilted his head to look at Gu Meng, and said, "I don't think it might be optimistic, Peter is too stupid."
"..." At the top of the stairs, a dozen or so imposing men in black looked at this and then at that, and were left completely silent.
They're here to arrest people, not to the tea party.
The leading young man's face was getting worse and worse, but he didn't immediately interrupt the opposite party, as if he was brewing something.
The three men trapped in the corridor seemed to have no insight into the surrounding situation. Therefore, the atmosphere in the same corridor was half black and evil, and half relaxed and happy, very harmonious, and the contrast was sharp.
Suddenly, Tang Zhi's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of a good way, and said, "Since Angela seems to have a high status, there should be a way to bring Peter out of the game, right?"
Then, he raised his eyes to look upstairs, blinked, and asked, "Is that okay?"
Maybe it was because the little beauty's eyes were too lethal, the young man was obviously taken aback, looked at Tang Zhi and said, "Yes, yes..."
Behind him, his subordinate coughed lightly in time and reminded in a low voice: "Zero..."
The man was suddenly pulled back to his senses, and he pointed his finger downstairs and said violently, "You have a good idea!"
"If you can't do it, then you can't do it." Bo Ye smiled kindly, and said calmly, "Let's go find Enjin now, he should have this ability."
In private, he tugged Tang Zhi's hand hintingly.
"Then let's go first, see you next time!" Tang Zhi greeted the dozen or so men in black upstairs, turned around and headed downstairs, jumping down three steps in two steps almost impatiently, with a dexterous figure.
Now that Bo Ye found an excuse to escape, Gu Meng quickly followed suit: "I will say hello to Enjin on your behalf!"
As soon as he turned around, the relaxed and harmonious atmosphere among the three of them suddenly changed, and no matter how they looked at their backs, they seemed to be running away.
The young man sneered, and walked downstairs step by step without haste, with his head held high, his expression revealing that he was bound to win.
Immediately afterwards, a clear young voice came from downstairs: "The door is sealed!"
There was annoyance and urgency in his voice.
Above the stairs, the young man lifted his lips and smiled gracefully, looking contented.
Looking at the position on the first floor, it was supposed to be the iron gate of the safe passage, but it turned into a mottled black wall, as if it had been roasted by fire, and it was out of place with the rest of the wall.
"A century ago, the wall in front of you was the outer courtyard wall of a certain church. It was originally intact, and the door was not cut." Accompanied by the soft voice, the leather shoes of "Kudden" and "Kudden" stepped on the tiles. There was a sound of the floor, and soon after, the figure of a young man appeared at the corner upstairs.
As the man went downstairs, he continued to explain unhurriedly: "But after the baptism of World War I, it became like this, tsk tsk... It's very old-fashioned, isn't it? So, there is no door here. Why do you say 'sealed'?"
The man approached step by step, Gu Meng, Bo Ye and Tang Zhi watched him warily.
Gu Meng didn't play around, and asked straight to the point: "What are your plans? Are you an enemy or a friend?"
"Enemy? Friend?" The young man lowered his head, straightened his white gloves with one hand, and said coldly, "Gu Meng, I never regarded you as an enemy."
"Of course, I didn't regard you as friends." The man then raised his head, changed the topic, and said, "In my eyes, you are all excellent test subjects, oh, maybe not now."
The young man showed a slightly ferocious smile: "Now you are disobedient and unable to recognize the situation, and the test subjects are to be scrapped!"
"It's really unpleasant to hear..." Tang Zhi stood behind Bo Ye, staring directly at the opposite side with piercing eyes, and whispered, "Is he really Angela?"
Bo Ye was the calmest, and said to the arrogant man, "Who the hell are you?"
"Me?" The young man asked back, raised his slender jaw, and half-raised his hand lazily.
Behind the man, a tall man with the brim of his hat pulled down so that his face could not be seen clearly spoke, and introduced in a deep voice: "He is the time controller—"
"zero."
There was silence in the corridor for half a minute.
"Which zero?" Bo Ye suddenly asked, "The '0' from 'No 1, no support, zeros floating everywhere'?"
Gu Meng: "..."
My friend, why are you always so good
People in black: "..."
It seems that they understand the other meanings of "zero", so they all become less daring to speak.
As for the young man, his fair face turned green with anger.
The result of Bo Ye's skinning is that the once dark little loli is directly irritable.
"There is a way in heaven, you don't want to go, but you want to bump into me." The man named "Ling" sneered, pointed at Gu Meng with a white gloved hand, and said, "Okay, then I will fulfill you, anyway, you escaped It's also death, why don't you let me personally end your sad and boring life."
At this moment, Gu Meng felt a strange feeling in her right hand, as if it was being entangled and restrained by something, and it was slowly tightening.
He lowered his head, raised his hand to look, and couldn't help being startled.
I saw that the originally shiny and slender right hand was rapidly drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye. The skin was covered with wrinkles, and the blue-purple veins became distinct, like cracks on dry land, and light brown spots even appeared in many places. .
Zero seemed to have found the fun, and laughed wildly: "Before you die, let me experience the feeling of getting old, so as not to say that it is a pity to die young."
Gu Meng finally understood that this is the man's ability to control time. Not only can he manipulate time to go backwards, but he can also speed up the passage of time. I believe that in a short while, his appearance will show an old state of seventy or eighty years old.
"Don't be crazy."
A deep male voice interjected at this moment, and at the same time Gu Meng was pulled behind by one person.
Ling paused, then looked at the man standing in front of Gu Meng and him.
At the same time, the aging process of Gu Meng's right hand stopped, and the wrinkled skin was recovering its elasticity.
"He belongs to Enjin." Tang Zhi stood beside Bo Ye, also blocking Gu Meng, and said in a cold tone, "Enjin is still in this building, you'd better think about it before moving him."
Zero looked sideways at the ground, as if he was really contemplating, but after a while, he turned his gaze to the three people in front of him again, and said: "You may have misunderstood the current situation. We are standing in 1916 now, And Enjin is in 2022, so it's a pity to disappoint you, Enjin is not here."
Tang Zhi was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the mottled black wall behind his eyes, and instantly understood.
The man moved the entire space they were in forward for more than a hundred years, so the door disappeared.
"Also, because he is Enjin's person, it is necessary to..." Ling stared at Gu Meng, squinted his eyes, and said in an unclear way, "Brother has changed too much for you, and continue to keep you by my side." Beside, it will get out of control sooner or later..."
Ling stretched out his hand to Gu Meng again, turned his head towards Bo Ye and Tang Zhi, and said, "If you plan to jump in line, I can help you two first."
The situation is tense at this moment, and it is about to explode.
"It's me you hate, let Bo Ye and Tang Zhi go." Gu Meng calmed down and said, "I dragged them out of the balance cabin, and it's none of their business."
Bo Ye and Tang Zhi looked at each other and exchanged eyes for a moment—
Tang Zhi: Can't help it
Bo Ye: I can't help it.
Tang Zhi: What should we do now
Bo Ye: I can't help it, sell teammates.
Then, the two stepped aside at the same time.
Looking at the vacant seat in front of her, Gu Meng was a little dumbfounded: "..."
Bo Ye looked at Ling, as if he had changed his attitude, and said calmly: "Yes, it's none of our business, you send us back first, Gu Meng can do whatever you want."
zero:"???"
Tonight, it seemed as if I had watched the Human Behavior Awards.
Gu Meng turned her back and beat the wall, cursing while beating: "Plastic! Plastic! Plastic!"
Before he could hit it twice, cracks suddenly appeared on the black wall in front of him.
Gu Meng was taken aback, quickly took two steps back, facing the wall in fear and apologized: "I'm talking about Gou Ye, not about your plastic, you... why did you just hit it twice and it collapsed?"
The cracks on the wall grew more and more until the wall collapsed.
Zero had a bad premonition, but he didn't have time to think too much. He covered his mouth and nose with his hands, and stepped back up the steps to avoid the dust caused by the collapse of the wall.
A dozen subordinates followed behind, and the sound of footsteps was chaotic.
A huge hole collapsed on the mottled black wall, and the smoke and dust gradually sank and dissipated.
Everyone looked up again, and saw the black night outside the wall. Black smoke filled everywhere, flames blazed everywhere, and the sound of bombing could be heard from afar. The war land was in a mess.
A tall figure was covered by dust and smoke, walking towards them with the flames behind, the hem of his clothes was blown away by the hot wind.
"Brother..."
"Enjin."
Ling and Bo Ye spoke at the same time.
One seemed slightly nervous, and the other was completely relieved.
After Enjin stepped over the ruins of the wall and walked in, she first glanced sideways at Gu Meng.
Gu Meng raised her hand and scratched her cheek, lowered her head and turned her back—
Take the initiative to face the wall and think about it.
A trace of unknown emotion flashed in Enjin's eyes, which was so fast that no one noticed.
When she saw Bo Ye and Tang Zhi, En Jin gave them a shallow nod as a greeting, then walked down the stairs non-stop, and finally stood still.
Enjin was also dressed in an officer's uniform, maybe because of her aura, she looked more intimidating than the dozen or so people on the opposite side combined.
The man looked at the crowd at the top of the stairs, and his eyes stayed on the face of the young man at the head for half a second. He said in a low and soft voice, "Are you planning to make me look up to you just like that?"
Ling Zhang's clear face was slightly pale, and he walked down the steps step by step, and walked in front of Enjin.
The subordinates behind him looked at each other, Ling made a gesture, and the crowd disappeared suddenly.
"Brother..." Ling muttered.
Behind Enjin, Gu Meng glanced quietly, surprised in her heart, to see the man who was arrogant just now, now he is as obedient as a milk cat.
Enjin looked at Ling in front of him, and said without beginning or end: "That's it?"
Zero looked up at him for no apparent reason.
Then, Zero's complexion changed suddenly, and his figure suddenly became shorter.
Gu Meng looked down, and found that the young man made a half-bent knee inexplicably, his knees were trembling, as if some heavy force was pressing on his shoulders, so he was silently resisting.
Under Zero's feet, his military boots sank into the tiled floor, and he finally knelt down under Enjin's gaze.
The young man lowered his head and gritted his teeth silently.
"How many times have I said that?" Enjin lowered her eyes lightly, looked at Ling, and said, "Learn to respect them."
Zero had a gloomy expression and didn't make a sound.
Enjin's soft voice could not detect any emotion, and asked, "The last time, do you understand?"
After a while, Zero nodded very inconspicuously, and did not say a word from the beginning to the end.
"Clean up here."
After speaking, Enjin led the others and disappeared, leaving Ling Ling kneeling on the ground, hot wind blowing from the wide hole in the wall.
The young man stood up and silently patted the ashes on his knees.
"Respect?" Gritting his teeth, he said, "A bunch of idiots..."
Thinking of something, Zero stood there for a while, stared blankly for a while, and then a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
A panicked shout suddenly sounded from behind: "It's over, it's over, it's over, I'm going to die! Help!"
A person rolled down the steps out of thin air and stopped after bumping into Zero's black military boots.
He frowned as if he was annoyed, then turned around and said, "It's so noisy! Idiot!"
The little boy rolled to the corner and sat up, raised his head with a black and gray face, and opened his big eyes in fear, like a little beggar.
Ling walked up to him, blocked him in a corner, condescended, and looked at him critically: "It's a surprise that he hasn't died yet."
"You... who are you?" Just now, he was still being chased by ghosts and rolled all over the ground. In a blink of an eye, he arrived in a completely unfamiliar environment. There was a handsome young man standing in front of him. Peter Pan hugged his knees, feeling terrified.
"Don't worry about who I am first." Zero raised his hand and squeezed the white glove on the other hand, and said slowly.
"Then what can I do?"
"..."
Peter Pan was as honest as ever, Ling was silent for a moment when he asked him.
The young man in front of him gave Pan Peter a sense of déjà vu, so his heartbeat gradually eased.
Anyway, no matter what you face, it is better than facing ghosts.
Zero raised his foot, and his military boots rested on the wall next to Pan Peter's cheek.
Peter Pan shivered, and immediately sat upright against the wall, his double chin protruding from tension.
"You just need to know..." Zero bent down at this moment, approaching Peter Pan face to face, and said in a soft voice, "I saved you, and you will be my pet from now on. You must be obedient in everything, understand?"
Peter Pan's black and white eyes widened, and his eyeballs turned left and right nervously. Then he looked at the man in front of him, and asked uncertainly, "You mean... you want me to be your lackey?"
Zero said: "..."
The author has something to say:
Zero: Excellent, full score for reading comprehension.
