Chapter 132 Bai Ye: We have two lives, one corpse!
Night Tide Prison, Offshore Platform.
"What's the situation now?"
Meihua, who had been conducting research in front of the door for dozens of hours, finally regained consciousness. She rubbed her forehead. The excessive energy consumption made her brain extremely clear. She looked to her side. Hongxin was leaning on the railing of the platform. Her fiery red hair was blown by the sea breeze. She stared at the light screen in her hand with a serious expression, processing various documents from the Law Enforcement Bureau.
“It’s not very good.”
Redheart shrugged and turned his gaze to the sky.
Because of the unique characteristics of the red and blue door, after Meihua finished her research in the dark room and obtained enough information, she took the red and blue door to the surface of the offshore platform for observation. After all, the previous behavior also required concealing information, but at present, no further clues have been obtained, and there is no need to conceal it from the public.
because……
Red Heart and Plum Blossom turned their gazes towards the sky together. High in the sky, heavy dark clouds covered the entire sky, stretching to an endless distance. Among those layers of dark clouds, wisps of golden light diffused, like thousands of strands of golden light, but without the bright feeling of sunlight. Instead, it carried an ominous and oppressive feeling, showing its majesty to every city circle in the world under the sky.
Insurmountable majesty.
Everything the Senate has done has been openly displayed to everyone in the surface world. Even the dullest person can guess through the spreading golden threads that there is a problem with the Wheel of Fortune. Public opinion on the Internet has long been in an uproar, and the blame has been thrown back and forth between the Law Enforcement Bureau and the Demon Apostles. However, no one thought that the real culprit would be the Senate.
Red Heart tried its best to maintain order, but it did not expect that the power of the Wheel of Fortune would actually pass through the red and blue door. The extended golden line stretched from the red and blue door to the sky and sprinkled in every city circle.
“That is…?”
Saotome Rin walked over with Xuedie, holding Ten Cong Yun in her hand. The remaining law enforcers and Night Island ninjas were temporarily organized by Hong Xin to maintain order in Night Tide Prison. She and Xuedie held Ten Cong Yun, the token of the Ten Commandments, which was the last hope, and dared not move easily.
"That is the script rewritten by the Wheel of Fortune. Those golden threads are used to fulfill the destiny written in the script. They will extend from the Wheel of Fortune, hang down to the earth, penetrate the inner and outer worlds, and turn all the people in these two worlds into nutrients for the Senate's Eden Project."
Meihua explained a few words with a serious expression, and her gaze returned to the door opened by the Ten Commandments token. However, her tone was not relaxed this time. She was rarely calm and instead made a "hiss" sound.
"What's wrong? What did you find out?"
Hongxin quickly looked at Meihua. Meihua didn't bother to respond to her. She increased the speed of her wheelchair and quickly moved to the door. She bent down carefully and scanned the door from bottom to top with her eyes.
"wrong."
The sound of plum blossoms contains an ecstasy that cannot be concealed.
"What's wrong?"
For the first time, Redheart felt like a fool, unable to immediately understand what her researcher friend was talking about.
"The size is wrong! Look!"
Meihua raised her hand, and the data dots covered the red and blue door: "This is the approximate data of this door that I recorded a few hours ago. Look carefully at the edge. Although it is not obvious, but...
The door was slowly shrinking due to some unknown force. Although it was weak, it was indeed shrinking.
Hong Xin, Saotome Rin and Xuedie have been on routine duty in front of the opened red and blue door for several days. Although they no longer have strong hopes after several days of waiting, the uncontrollable fantasy still blooms in their hearts.
That’s Youyu, and there’s the phantom thief Wonder who can steal everything. If there’s anyone else in this world who has the potential to win everything at the hands of fate, it’s only them.
And now, their expectations and hopes actually received a tiny response from Meihua herself.
"This door made up of the Ten Commandments is falling apart--!" Meihua shouted.
"It's Youyu! I'll go inside to support them!"
Saotome Rin showed a relieved and expected smile. Since the incident in Huangquan Town, even if they had to face enemies like the legendary Senate and the Wheel of Fortune, she never doubted that Youyu and Wonder could definitely do it all. She clenched the Tiancongyun in her hand, looked at Xuedie, and the two of them held hands and prepared to jump in.
Meihua was about to say something, but she saw that Hongxin had already stopped the two young ninjas before her.
Meihua nodded: "Really, that's right, are you crazy——"
Before she finished her words, she heard Hongxin pat her chest and yell in a tone that she could already tell was PTSD: "Don't worry! Don't forget me!"
Meihua felt like she was about to faint:...What on earth do you want to do? ! At least be vigilant!
**
A platform in an unknown land deep in the core of the Wheel of Fortune.
Bai Ye climbed up from the golden plane, his body aching slightly from the impact of the fall, but his brain became clearer than ever before: he vaguely remembered that when he and King were falling into the depths of the chaotic fate line, it seemed that something intercepted them from falling into the deepest core of the Wheel of Fortune and becoming the nourishment of the Wheel of Fortune that was executing the Eden Plan.
The rotating loom dial was right in front of him. Bai Ye stood up despite the pain. He covered his chest, staggered a few steps, and looked around, but did not find any trace of King. Instead, the broken soul fragments of King, which were very similar to his, surrounded the entire core of the Wheel of Fortune. After King's efforts, he and King successfully fell back to the core platform of the Wheel of Fortune.
Bai Ye's mouth twitched. Thinking of You Yu, who should have returned to the Senate Temple by now, he felt that the places on his body that were hit during the fall just now were not very painful anymore.
He has now sent the "protagonist" to the final boss, his mission as wonder has ended, and now, he needs to do what he wants to do as Bai Ye.
I don't know who sent him and King here, although there are only a few options...
"T173," Bai Ye covered his chest and supported himself with the golden wheel beside him to stand up. He took two deep breaths before he could gather the strength to ask, "Logically speaking, I didn't follow the villain's script when I faced King just now, but why hasn't my price come yet?"
t173 sneered: [I don't know, maybe it's because you are deaf. I called you for a long time but you didn't respond. Maybe the script felt it was too cheap to bother with you about this. 】
Bai Ye relaxed and chuckled, like the sound of a white bird spreading its wings and flying high: "Really? Never mind. I don't care if you don't tell me, because I know - it's because the script was written like this, right?"
「What are you talking about──」
T173 swallowed his own voice and made an unbelievable sound of "tsk", which sounded like he really wanted to kill him.
Bai Ye ignored him, covered his chest and coughed lightly a few times, but this time he did not spit out blood. It seemed that his current physical discomfort was all caused by the fall, not the payment of the price.
This is already very good. Wonder has fallen into a messy fate with no possibility of return in front of Youyu. The scene of the thief has been completed, and he has finally gotten rid of that bad script. The ending is many times better than he expected.
"And the one who saved me...was also me, right?"
The young man leaned back and smiled relaxedly. Ever since he was entangled by this damn t173 system, he had never smiled so relaxedly again. Even in front of You Yu and others, the script represented by t173 had been chasing him like a bone-eating insect. Sometimes, looking at the members of the detective agency in the sun, Bai Ye would even doubt himself.
Perhaps even judging from the name, I am completely unsuitable to walk the same path as them, let alone become their friend who regards each other as a part of their life.
But those three guys all reached out to him, even though he was stigmatized by the script, even though it was Queen's work, even though he was full of doubts and was closely connected to the Phantom Thief Wonder, but those three guys... still chose to believe him.
so……
t173 was so shocked that it was speechless. It really didn't expect that Bai Ye, the youngest high school student among them, could understand the situation so quickly.
"T173, you are me, the DM, and the King, so, so - don't stand on their side and suffer for the script. The proposition of [fate] is wrong in itself."
"Tell me, come with me, t173. You are the one among 'us' who has spent the longest time with me and has the best relationship with me."
【……】
The light screen of t173 flashed, and he couldn't speak, but the flashing light screen showed his complicated mood at the moment. Whether it was the amount of information Bai Ye knew, or Bai Ye calling him "myself", the person with whom he had the best relationship, it made him feel a little unbearable.
A subtle pain exploded in its heart, which no longer existed after it was digitized. It wanted to say something, but found that its throat, which had lost its vocal organs, was extremely bitter.
[You really are... you can actually say such a thing. You are really willing to risk your life for those little guys from the Squid Detective Agency. 】
t173 let out a long sigh, but this sigh was the most gentle words Bai Ye had said since he had communicated with it.
"Of course... After all, if you have three friends like this who will never abandon you, you will also realize how lucky I am."
Bai Ye stood up and continued to stagger forward with difficulty, passing through countless soul fragments that looked almost exactly like him, but of different ages, and walked towards the other end of the core.
There, King with a grim expression stared at him coldly. He raised his pen like a machine that had been programmed long ago.
"Stop the script. Those who built Eden must die. Variables detected. Rejection begins—"
"After all, the protagonist has his own battlefield, and the villain has his own battlefield."
Bai Ye stood in front of King without fear. He was pale and weak, but he looked confident, and the smile on his lips was as confident as You Yu.
"Please let a miracle happen!"
Just before the sword-like pen tip in King's hand pierced Bai Ye, who had lost his ability to move and fight, Bai Ye's cobalt blue eyes once again turned into the red and blue that only Wonder had.
"DM system! The last 'me', you saved me and King, you can't really just plan to watch me die right before your eyes, right?"
Bai Ye gave a sly smile.
"Ah, let me add that t173 and I are still together. We have one body and two lives!"
