Chapter 9 Identity Exposed?

"No..."

Chen Fan lowered his head to avoid the "gaze" of the statue.

He tried his best to hide the fear in his heart: "I, I'm fine."

His mother frowned.

As the person who knows Chen Fan best in the world, she keenly noticed something wrong.

To be precise, she had vaguely noticed something unusual since Chen Fan suddenly locked himself in the room a few days ago.

At first, she thought it was just the result of excessive psychological pressure on Chen Fan, who had just become the Chosen One of God.

But now it seems that her original guess seems to be wrong.

She finally couldn't suppress the confusion in her heart: "Xiao Fan, what happened to you these two days?"

"Why do I feel..."

The mother hesitated again and again, and finally said the doubts that were stuck in her throat: "...You are like a different person?"

The moment he heard this, Chen Fan felt a tremor in his heart.

Damn it.

Is the identity he tried so hard to hide going to be exposed so soon?

Feeling the gradually stagnant atmosphere around him, Chen Fan quickly thought about the words to respond in his heart.

Too much pressure?

No, this excuse has been used before. I have to think of a new way of speaking.

Directly point out the truth and say that I have found a problem with the gods?

Don't be kidding!

Saying this to a devout believer, isn't this purely a suicidal act!

This is not okay, that is not okay, for a moment, Chen Fan felt confused.

Just as Chen Fan was anxious, Yi's voice suddenly sounded in his mind: [Chen Fan, don't fall into the self-proving trap. ]

Chen Fan was startled, and then suddenly realized!

The so-called self-proving trap is that when a person is questioned, the first thing he thinks about is to prove himself.

But in fact, at the moment of proving yourself, you have fallen into a disadvantage.

No matter how he answers this question raised by his mother, he will eventually fall into a dead cycle of self-proving.

He cannot prove himself perfectly, and his mother will also have more questions because of his answer-a lie often requires more lies to make it whole!

"Yi, thank you."

Chen Fan expressed his gratitude to Yi in his heart.

[This is what the machine should do. 】

The electronic synthesized voice continued to ring in his mind: [You should think about how to solve this problem quickly. This machine cannot analyze human nature and cannot help you with this. 】

After realizing that he had fallen into the trap of self-proof, Chen Fan's stagnant thoughts suddenly became open.

As the saying goes, whoever advocates, shall provide evidence.

But asking his mother to produce evidence is definitely not feasible.

As for the reason...

He is indeed a fake! ! !

What if his mother really tells him one, two, three, four, wouldn't he be shooting himself in the foot?

In this way, if he wants to solve this problem, he can only start from another direction:

instead of proving himself, it is better to lead the contradiction to a third party!

Who is the third party? In his opinion, there is no better object to blame than the gods!

Chen Fan took a deep breath: "Mom, don't you feel it?"

"What?"

In response to Chen Fan's question, the mother was stunned and stopped praying involuntarily: "What did you feel?"

Chen Fan's face showed a little confusion and uneasiness: "Recently, God seems to have become more concerned about us."

"I remember that God didn't come to us so frequently before..."

"Silly child."

Before Chen Fan could finish his words, his mother interrupted him: "Is this what you are worried about?"

Seeing Chen Fan nod, the mother smiled with relief, clasped her hands together again, turned her head and looked at the statue in front of her: "Xiao Fan, God is everywhere, and He will pay attention to every one of His believers."

"But not all believers are qualified to listen to God's teachings."

"You are now God's Chosen One, the one chosen by God himself, and you deserve more."

If it were yesterday, Chen Fan would have only sneered at these words, but now...

a storm has already been set off in his heart!

'God is everywhere.'

In Chen Fan's opinion, this sentence is not accurate.

The correct statement should be that the statue of God is everywhere!

If he is not wrong, the statue of God should be the tool used by the so-called gods to monitor believers!

Thinking back carefully, the time when the gods speak is when worshiping the statues!

Because of this, the so-called gods did not find that the original owner had died, nor did they find the abnormal events that happened in the room last night-the statue of God was in the living room, and He could not "see" the scene in the room through the door!

After thinking about the truth behind all the strange events, Chen Fan suddenly had a ridiculous idea in his mind.

The statue can emit a stiff electronic synthesized sound, can give corresponding answers to questions from the surroundings, and the answers have serious traces of templates, and can monitor the surroundings...

This...

This is not a statue at all, this is simply a smart speaker made in the shape of a statue!

Add to that the "voice-controlled incandescent lamps" in the room...

Isn't this a smart home?

After realizing the problem, Yi's voice became a little more serious: [Find an opportunity to get close to the statue.]

[In visitor mode, the smart terminal has a low-power basic scanning function.]

[This machine can help you simply detect the internal structure of the statue.]

Chen Fan was overjoyed when he heard this!

If he had known that there was this function, he would have taken an X-ray of this mysterious statue long ago!

[You didn't ask before...]

Chen Fan: "..."

"Xiao Fan?" Looking at Chen Fan who was stunned, his mother asked worriedly: "Do you understand what I said?"

Chen Fan naturally nodded in response to his mother's question.

More than understanding, he was thinking about taking an X-ray of the statue!

The mysterious veil of the gods was lifted, and more confusion immediately surfaced in Chen Fan's mind.

What's the matter with the Chosen Ones?

Are these devices that look like smart homes really given by God?

If so... wouldn't this god be a little too low?

Moreover, can't the people in this world see any problems? !

With such doubts, Chen Fan slowly stood up from the futon.

Suddenly!

"Bang!"

A dull loud noise came from outside the door, interrupting the actions of Chen Fan and his mother.

Before Chen Fan could react, his mother's face had become ugly.

"Here they come again, those beasts are here again..."

As she said, the mother hurriedly ran towards the door of the house.

Chen Fan, who was full of confusion, naturally would not give up this opportunity. He trotted to keep up with his mother's footsteps.

As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, he heard a noisy noise coming from outside the wooden door.

"Damn it, it's really those beasts!"

The mother clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed: "Lord..."

Seeing the look of shock and anger on his mother's face, Chen Fan frowned and asked subconsciously: "Who are they?"

"They?"

The mother opened her eyes and looked at the closed wooden door with gritted teeth: "They are a group of rats living underground and hiding from the light!"

Her face was distorted and her eyes were full of resentment.

Perhaps she was overwhelmed by hatred, and the mother did not notice the abnormality of Chen Fan's question at this time.

Rats that hide from the light?

Listening to the noise outside the door, Chen Fan suddenly had a vague guess in his mind.

Could it be that in this world ruled by God, there will also be "gangs"?

What about the gods who are said to be everywhere?

As a dignified god, can't he even solve a small "gang"?
