Train to Moscow
This was a dark tunnel, and it was pitch black all around, making it difficult to see the path. However, Jiang Ke had been here before. Therefore, even though Miss Leir walked quickly with the light source in hand, she didn't care much about Jiang Kexin's feelings.
Jiang Kexin could also walk down step by step in the dark with ease.
As he walked, he looked up and ahead.
Leier in front was holding a candle. Her European-style long skirt was simple and plain, and the skirt rippled with her movements. The candle made her face flicker, and it looked blurry among the lights, just like watching flowers from across the river.
Jiang Kexin turned his gaze again, lowered his head and concentrated on the road ahead. It was so dark that he had to be careful not to fall while walking.
As he walked the same path he had come before, he was also very curious. He didn't understand why Leir brought him here. He brushed his fingers lightly over the railings and stepped on the stairs.
In a daze, he actually recalled the scene of Earl Stanford holding him and leaving here.
An inexplicable electric current passed through his heart.
Jiang Kexin knew that this was because Earl Stanford had left him with deep memories. Earl Stanford was like rain that had created a large puddle in his heart. Those puddles seemed to disappear quickly but would inadvertently leave a shadow on Jiang Kexin.
Jiang Kexin put Earl Stanford out of his mind, shook his head, and continued to follow Miss Leir. They seemed to be going very deep and far, at least Jiang Kexin had never gone that far. During the time when Jiang Kexin couldn't help but ask, Miss Leir turned left and right in the darkness until she turned into a small room. She stopped here. The light was neither too bright nor too dark, just illuminating the small room.
Jiang Kexin followed closely behind, and the first thing that caught her eye was the dusty space. Thick dust covered the tabletop, bookshelves and the floor, making the originally shiny surfaces dull.
The furniture in the room looked tattered and dilapidated. The desk was strewn with scattered documents and materials, their yellowed pages covered in illegible writing. The books on the shelves were faded and damaged from long periods of disuse, some even showing signs of mildew. The scientific diagrams and lab reports hanging on the walls were faded and blurred, eroded beyond recognition by time and moisture.
In one corner of the room lay a collection of discarded lab equipment and broken instruments. Once vibrant and vibrant, they had witnessed countless scientific experiments, but now, abandoned in this desolate corner, they had become mere memories. In a corner, a row of test tube racks held a few rusted tubes, their contents long since evaporated or deteriorated, no longer of any experimental value.
Ignoring all this, Lei'er walked around the mess with ease and squatted down. She picked up the candle and motioned Jiang Kexin to hold it. Jiang Kexin held the candle in her hand and observed Lei'er's every move. While observing, he was also planning how to escape and what to do if he encountered danger.
He glanced back and saw that he was already dozens of meters deep in the dark room where he had fallen. He could no longer see the way he had come from. When Jiang Kexin looked back, Miss Leir had already found the door she wanted to open. She smiled happily and held the key against the door.
The key turned round and round.
The door opened with a "click". Jiang Kexin moved his gaze back. When he saw the small door open, he was slightly surprised. He pursed his lips and was a little hesitant. Just as he was hesitating, he saw the book, a book that fell on the table.
This book was inexplicably similar to the nightingale he had seen before, and Jiang Kexin realized that this was his clue.
And he really needed to know something, otherwise it would be too passive to follow Leir without any preparation.
Jiang Kexin thought so and made the final decision. He pretended to follow Miss Leir in but actually stayed outside for a while.
Jiang Kexin walked to the tables. The rotten papers had no value anymore, so Jiang Kexin didn't care much about them. He squeezed the papers lightly and they broke into pieces. This was not what Jiang Kexin wanted to know. He frowned, holding a candle in one hand and flipping through books with the other.
It was a bit troublesome to find that group of books. Jiang Kexin couldn't find anything, but Jiang Kexin was unwilling to give up. He bit his lip and frowned, and a dong dong dong sound appeared in his mind.
Jiang Kexin's Inspiration test result: 1d100 = 68/60 "Failed"...
This is actually very strange. Jiang Kexin put down the book, thinking in confusion, he didn't trigger anything that required inspiration, so what was this identification about? But Jiang Kexin knew that all triggers were intentional. Just because he didn't know it now didn't mean it was meaningless.
Before Jiang Kexin understood, Miss Leier turned back when she saw Jiang Kexin was not catching up. She was standing at the entrance of the secret passage. She saw Jiang Kexin's behavior and sneered, "Jiang, come here quickly."
After hearing this, Jiang Kexin looked up and saw Miss Leier standing there. Because the candle was in Jiang Kexin's hand, he couldn't see Miss Leier's face. For some reason, in the shadows, Jiang Kexin vaguely saw that Miss Leier seemed to have some tentacles coiled around her body, and they seemed to be baring their fangs and claws...
Tentacles, yes, Leir is also a monster. Jiang Kexin realized that she was too eager to know the truth and forgot this point. Since it was a monster, it must not be so kind. If she really went in with her as she wanted, then something really bad would happen.
He must know now what her purpose is in helping him. Jiang Kexin took a step back calmly, and when she stepped back, the air moved with her. There was a lot of dust in the air, and the dust entered his nasal cavity.
He was choked and coughed from time to time.
"What are you doing, Jiang? We agreed on these things, didn't we? Are you going to break our agreement? That's not good. That's not what a good child should do. Come here now while Earl Stanford and the others are away."
"Let's not waste any more time. In fact, we only need a minute to end this. Let me be free, and when I'm free, that's the time to tell you everything you want to know. Isn't this a happy ending? I won't hurt you. Darling, hurry up and end this with me."
Miss Leir's words were full of excitement. She stretched out her hands to hug the air as if she was hugging herself, so loving and so terrifying.
"But you've been acting alone from the beginning. I think we need to change the terms of the deal. You need to tell me exactly what I want to do, who you are, and everything I want to know. Then I'll help you accomplish what you want. What you want is simple, and what I want is even simpler. As you said, we don't have that much time to waste now. What's your decision?"
Jiang Kexin pressed his fingers on the table to brush off the dust. He smiled confidently, and his smile sparkled like pearls under the candlelight.
[Result of Jiang Kexin's Pleasure Test: 1d100=9/95 "Extremely difficult to succeed" You know this, you've always understood this, but you've been spoiled and arrogant. They always give you what you want, they never give you any trouble, your smile and love are an honor to them, why are you unwilling to stop and respond?
You know, love means you can have whatever you want. If you still don't believe it, then just wait and see.
Jiang Kexin ignored those misleading words and waited expressionlessly for Miss Leir in front of him to tell the truth.
There was a stalemate between them for a long time, and then Miss Leir sighed in the darkness.
It was as if she had no way to deal with Jiang Kexin. She walked out of the darkness and passed by Jiang Kexin.
She chuckled and patted Jiang Kexin, as if she was patting her lover, saying gently and lovingly, "Okay, relax. You want to know everything, right? You're a smart kid. Don't be nervous. I'll tell you everything you want to know, and the answer is right here."
Miss Leir flipped through the books easily and then she opened a book that was so worn out that it was unreadable. There was a line of flamboyant handwriting on the book.
Miss Rael flipped through the book, its old pages becoming even more antique with the baptism of time. As she turned the pages, she read:
"This is a note about human research on parallel worlds. Okay, let me see, oh, this is the paragraph. Scientists' bold exploration has uncovered a mysterious phenomenon: the existence of parallel worlds.
These worlds share similarities with our own reality, but also exhibit unique characteristics and interdimensional diversity. Using advanced quantum technology, researchers have first transcended the boundaries between reality and fiction, delving into the realm of parallel worlds... and the rest needs no further explanation.
What you want to know is very simple: we do not belong to this dimension, we are not human, we are objects discovered and studied by you. I know what you are wondering, but as I said, I will tell you everything you want to know.
As for why it's an amusement park, the reason is actually very simple. We were originally discovered by a Russian businessman's exploration team. He then sold the discovery, along with our parallel land, to Area 51 in the United States, which was currently conducting research.
Later, to better facilitate their research, Area 51 staff incorporated an amusement park template into this simulated environment... And then there were things beyond human control. That's all I know.
Isn’t it incredible? Humans are truly remarkable, but it is this remarkable spirit of exploration that has trapped us for so long…”
Miss Leir closed the book, she laughed, and stood on the floor. She looked like a lifeless doll, inexplicably filled with sadness.
She sighed. "We are the Sora Fish, from the Hewei Dimension. Let's get to know each other again. I'd like you to help destroy the electronic screens that are trapping us and keeping us in this endless cycle of reincarnation. Only humans can accomplish this task. Apparently, only you can do it. How about my sincerity? Is it enough?"
