Chapter 45 011 "Leave everything to me, I will rescue you...

【Why didn’t you reply? 】

【Didn’t you see it?】

【Still don't want to pay attention to me? 】

As Lucas followed the local police officers to the interrogation room, he took out his phone for the twelfth time and clicked on the chat page marked as a special reminder.

Am I being too straightforward?

After scanning, 03399 did not find any problems with the message, and as for why not reply to such complex emotional issues, it chose to play dead online after searching without any results.

——The system that completely disappeared was like an inconspicuous piece of air.

Lucas didn't expect to get an answer from an intelligent AI. He skillfully clicked on Wu Cisheng's profile picture and looked at it for a few seconds, then reviewed every message he had sent him in the past.

"It's just ahead."

The police officer who was in charge of leading the way must have been a newcomer who had just joined the company. He obviously had trouble controlling his facial expressions and kept secretly looking at Lucas along the way.

This is normal.

Ever since Lucas chose to reject the simulated state and enter the small world with his real appearance, every day when he walks on the street, he will receive countless glances.

Look at his somewhat excessively tall height, his frizzy red hair that makes him stand out from the crowd, and his exotic facial features that clearly show he's not from this area.

"The sentinels are all so tall..."

The young police officer's very quiet mumbling fell into Lucas' ears, but it was almost the same as loud beeping.

The two officially entered the observation and command area.

This is the outer room of the interrogation room, which is equipped with several monitoring devices for other investigators to observe the interrogation process or conduct remote command.

The two police officers on duty inside saw Lucas and the police officers outside come in, subconsciously looked at Lucas, and then hurriedly stood up to report some basic information.

Lucas listened, his eyes fixed on one of the high-definition surveillance images with no blind spots.

Inside was the interrogation room scene.

The entire interrogation room is not large, with walls painted in a monotonous grayish-white color and no decoration, which makes it stand out. In the center is an interrogation chair made of high-strength alloy steel, with restraint devices on both sides and the front of the chair to fix the suspect's hands and feet.

Sitting on the chair was a black-haired young man. The overly bright lighting above his head made every strand of his hair and every expression clearly visible, especially the horrific burn that occupied half of his face on the left side.

"This prisoner is quite cooperative, answering all the questions. This is his entire record so far..."

A police officer on duty handed Lucas a thick stack of interrogation records, while another added some relevant details.

According to regulations, there are differences in authority levels, jurisdiction priorities, importance levels, etc. in the handling of the same case. The Abnormality Management Committee is the department with the highest priority under the current structure, so when Lucas is present, they should indeed report the case status to him.

Lucas looked down at the records in his hand, which clearly recorded every charge he admitted to, including but not limited to intentional injury, bribery, perjury, abuse of power for personal gain, illegal detention, and so on.

And as reported before, in almost every one or two lines one can see the suspect asking questions persistently, saying that he wanted to see Wu Cisheng and would repeatedly ask the question even if his request was rejected.

There seemed to be no problems, and progress was going smoothly. Lucas should have been happy, but as he stared at the young man with his head bowed in the picture, he suddenly felt something... strange.

I can't tell exactly where the abnormality is.

I remember that when I first arrived in this small world, Lucas secretly looked at the mission target, and naturally he also saw Cheng Yuan who was accompanying the mission target.

The first impression was quite deep.

It was still dark outside, foggy, and the street lights were still on. There were few vehicles on the streets, and most people in the city were still asleep, including Wu Cisheng.

Lucas had just disappeared into their room and was approaching the door of their villa when the man on the bed in the bedroom suddenly opened his eyes alertly.

He seemed to have discovered Lucas?

At that time, Lucas immediately noticed the abnormality of this "NPC" and instantly entered combat state, but the expected situation did not happen.

The man who wore a mask even when sleeping seemed to just stare at the ceiling for a few seconds before closing his eyes and falling asleep again.

The system was floating on the ceiling at the time.

03399 was shocked by the abnormal reaction at that time, but soon it remembered that the unbound humans should not be able to see it.

So it thought it might be an accident.

In the following days, when Lucas had already contacted Wu Cisheng and was collecting evidence and traveling between local authorities and the Alien Management Committee in order to rescue the person legally and in compliance with regulations, he was always worried that Cheng Yuan would interfere, so he had to ask the system to check on the NPC's situation from time to time.

Cheng Yuan installed a surveillance camera in the studio where Wu Cisheng worked, so he could see Wu Cisheng's work from time to time...

At the radio station where Wu Cisheng worked, anyone who spoke to him for a few more words would quickly be remembered by Cheng Yuan, who would then fire them under various pretexts.

Oh, or maybe it wasn't a dismissal, but finding another job. He was really generous, so no one would make trouble.

It can be seen that he seemed to want to isolate Wu Cisheng from the people and things around him, making him like an isolated island even if he lived among the crowd.

It's obvious.

This person definitely has ulterior motives!

Lucas was worried that he would come forward to stop him, but it seemed that this person did nothing except causing some trouble at the beginning.

Including the day he was arrested, some young people from the Alien Management Committee and local authorities were still worried that this man would go all out and threaten the poor guide.

Based on this consideration, not only did they carry a large number of manpower when they went out on patrol, they also secretly arranged countless snipers in the dark and invisible places.

As long as he makes any wrong movement, the sniper will get the order immediately.

But... nothing happened.

He really cooperated when he was taken away, and even ate breakfast as usual before leaving.

Lucas felt strange when he thought of that scene. He took two steps forward, and these two steps made the police officer who was originally sitting at the control console immediately stand up and give the command position to Lucas.

Lucas was not polite either. He used a tissue to open the microphone leading to the interrogation room.

"Cheng Yuan..."

There was no need to pretend your voice when talking to him. Lucas's natural voice was like a rusty saw cutting wood. Every sound scraped against one's eardrums, making one feel uncomfortable.

The police officers present all frowned silently, but Lucas didn't care. He held the notebook and asked the suspect inside:

"So you're admitting that you hired someone to cause Mr. Wu's eye injury, bribed the local police chief to hastily close the case, bribed students inside the tower to fabricate false testimony, bribed the student affairs office teacher to illegally expel Mr. Wu, and for the past few years, closely monitored Wu Cisheng's life and attempted to control him using unapproved psychiatric drugs, correct?"

The young man inside buried his head in silence when his crime was accused so bluntly.

The strange feeling in Lucas' heart grew stronger, and he raised his voice: "Speak!"

The young man inside finally spoke up: "Oh, I admit it, I did it all."

"reason."

"Didn't I say it before? Because I love him, I love him very much. Okay, I've said what I wanted to say. I want to see him..."

Lucas neither agreed nor refused. Without warning, he mentioned something other than the case: "I'm not here to ask about your case. I want to ask about something else. Do you know... what the Savior System is?"

The young man was silent for a few seconds, then began to repeat the previous sentence to himself: "I have already explained what I have said. I just want to see him. This is my only request."

Lucas's eyes were fixed on the movements and expressions of the young men on the screen. After a few seconds, his face changed drastically, and he immediately asked the police officer beside him, "Did you arrest the wrong person?"

This statement was incoherent and the police officer next to him obviously hadn't reacted yet, and subconsciously retorted, "How is that possible?"

"Open the door!"

"hurry up!!!"

Perhaps it was because he had just started working and it was his first time encountering such an emergency, or perhaps he was frightened by Lucas's sudden momentum, the police officer holding the key was too nervous. As soon as the key touched the keyhole, his hand shook and the key fell to the ground.

Lucas was impatient and couldn't wait any longer, so he grabbed the door handle and pulled it out. It seemed like he didn't use much strength, and the metal door handle bent like plasticine.

Bend... bend...

Damn, is this a human?!

The door lock was violently broken. Amid the alarm, Lucas walked up to Cheng Yuan. He seemed to be still the same as in the surveillance video.

[According to your speculation, Cheng Yuan, who is beside Wu Cisheng, should be the previous system owner. Can you check if he has it...]

The light on Guangtuanzi's body flickered, and in the end, it turned out that the light was not on him.

"Hello? Where's the remaining debris of the system?"

The black-haired young man seemed to be blind to Lucas in front of him, and continued to repeat the same words as before: "Ask whatever you want, I will tell you everything. I just want to see him once, this is my only request."

At this distance, Lucas could clearly see the uneven scars on Cheng Yuan's face and his unfocused eyes.

Rather than being a human being, he is more like a puppet, like a machine with a pre-programmed program.

"Shit, he ran away!"

The three police officers behind him looked at each other, then looked at the young man sitting peacefully on the interrogation chair, and then looked at Lucas.

One of them asked in confusion, "What are you talking about? Isn't the person right here?"

Another added: "We've been watching the whole time, since we came in. The surveillance outside is available 24 hours a day!"

Lucas didn't have time to explain patiently to the young police officers. He dialed Wu Cisheng's number while asking the system to call up the surveillance footage.

One of the policemen had good eyesight and saw a clear figure on the phone. Before he could calm down, the tall sentry who was in front of him just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.

I just heard something wrong?

What's wrong with the people in the room?

What's wrong?

Several police officers looked at each other, confused about the current situation.

Only one of the police officers pondered for a moment, then took the initiative to ask the black-haired man sitting in the interrogation chair: "Speak."

The man drooped his eyelids and repeated the same words in the interrogation book: "Ask whatever you want, I will tell you everything. I only have one request, let me see him..."

The more experienced police officer among the three suddenly shuddered.

*

Time goes back fifteen minutes.

Wu Cisheng heard a knock on the door. The voice outside said it was a hotel waiter, saying that a gentleman had ordered a dessert for him.

Coincidentally, when we were on CS300 before, Lucas mentioned for fun that he had stayed in a hotel owned by the Alien Management Committee for a few days, praising their food and beverages, especially the desserts?

Wu Cisheng stood up naturally and walked towards the direction of the sound at the door. Before opening the door, he still habitually let the little ferret out to "check" the situation outside.

Soon, the little ferret's message came back: there was indeed an ordinary man with a height of 178 cm standing outside, wearing a hotel uniform, and there were several desserts in the robot next to him.

Only then did Wu Cisheng feel relieved.

Just then, the voice outside the door asked again: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

"Please wait a moment."

Wu Cisheng unscrewed the door lock, opened the door, exchanged a few words with the waiter at the door, took the dessert handed to him, and lowered his head to smell it.

A fresh scent of mango.

It just so happens that he likes mangoes.

"Thanks."

Wu Cisheng was groping to close the door, and at this moment, the waiter who had been acting normally just now suddenly moved without saying a word.

The incident happened so suddenly that Wu Cisheng only felt a slight tingling in the skin of his hand, followed by a strong feeling of dizziness. At the same time, the connection between him and his spiritual body became intermittent.

It happened so suddenly!!

"Who are you?"

Wu Cisheng's body fell due to weightlessness, but he did not feel the expected pain. Instead, he was caught steadily by someone.

Who is this? !

Why attack yourself?

No, Wu Cisheng’s thoughts were racing. In fact, this could not be considered an attack. The other party did not release any attack signal.

If this person had revealed a little bit of hostility towards him when opening the door, Wu Cisheng, with his alertness, would have noticed it long ago.

The fact that he didn't notice it only means that the person had no subjective intention to hurt him, but was just trying to make him drowsy.

This feeling... is so familiar.

In a flash, Wu Cisheng was not at all panicked. He understood everything instantly and pulled the corners of his mouth before falling into a coma.

So that's how it is...

Cheng Yuan... Oh no, it should be the "outsider" living in Cheng Yuan's body, the previous savior who saved him in his dream.

Always by my side.

Those vague dreams suddenly became clear at this moment, with similar scenes and images in memory overlapping and intertwining with each other.

"Hello, what happened to your leg?"

"Hello, what's wrong with your eyes?"

"Ah, be careful."

"Ah, be careful."

“…”

“…”

A handsome black-haired young man smiled slightly, half-crouched in front of Wu Cisheng's wheelchair, and looked up at him: "Why are you living alone in such a remote place? Sorry, I'm an outdoor enthusiast and accidentally broke in..."

"Why don't you speak?"

"Are you a guide? Your world is really interesting. I also have spiritual power, and I have abilities similar to those of your guides here. I can heal, so let me see."

"Are you imprisoned here?"

"How pitiful."

"But it doesn't matter, leave everything to me, I will get you out."
