Chapter 139 Open Sesame
Tu Lanxun plans to invite Suo Niya and Xian Yu Qingyun.
Of the ghosts with suitable identities, these two have spent the longest time in the Rising Sea of Blue Sea, and they have had the most contact with the Heavenly Kingdom Group. Perhaps they can sense some clues while opening the door.
The most important thing is that they crossed the road under the nose of the Tourism Administration, which is an advantage that N and Mikhail cannot match.
Tu Lanxun reported this to Wenchong, who agreed immediately.
Xianyu Qingyun and Sonia were quickly taken out of the convenience store. Xianyu Qingyun was about to be assigned to the Xiaokunshan area. She was accompanied by police officers from the North Branch and the Municipal Bureau, as well as An Feng and Zheng Dongyang, whom she had met before.
A seat was solemnly cleared for her in the back row of the police car. Tu Lanxun personally went forward to open the door. After opening and closing it, the seat was still empty, but everyone already knew that the "passenger" had arrived, and they were all slightly startled.
Tu Lanxun smiled at them and said, "Thank you for your hard work on the journey. I will definitely bring the person back to me safely."
Lu Lianbing had already prepared for the pick-up in Xiaokun Mountain in advance. With this discerning person, she was not afraid that Xianyu Qingyun would get lost on the road.
"Goodbye, Consultant Tu."
"Bye, Officer An, Officer Xiao Zheng, and everyone else." Tu Lanxun continued to smile.

When Tu Lanxun returned to the South Branch, Wen Chong had already plunged into the temporary laboratory. She walked in, washed her hands with disinfectant, and asked, "When will the Tourism Administration building be completed?"
The reason why the office was squeezed into the South Branch is that, on the one hand, the South Branch is one of the branches with the most ample space in Lucheng, and on the other hand, this place is closest to the development zone, which is convenient for management and can also ensure the Game Administration Bureau's early style of coming and going without a trace.
But now the situation is different. The Tourism Management Bureau will soon be a twin unit alongside the Police Department. Regardless of whether it will be a single unit with two different offices, their offices will undoubtedly be located together. Therefore, the dilemma is whether to allocate two floors within the South Precinct for the Tourism Management Bureau, or to expand the courtyard and build a separate office building.
"I haven't decided yet." Wen Chong sat motionless in front of the computer. In front of her seemed to be a data simulation model. The human figure in the middle was the appearance of Dong Tianlong's soul, which was scanned by light waves over and over again.
Seeing that she had no intention of leaving for Xingfuquan Road, Tu Lanxun sat down beside her and asked: "Are you trying to crack Dong Tianlong's soul?"
"That technology is very old, there's no need to crack it." Wen Chong said ruthlessly, "I'm thinking about why Kris and Dong Yijian did this."
Tu Lanxun sighed inwardly. If those two black-hearted brothers simply wanted an heir, evenly compiling genes and seeking Viola's close bloodline would have been enough. Why would they bother with transforming a soul?
Dong Tianlong is not even a natural person, he is a discarded version of Viola's soul copy.
"Why did they make Dong Tianlong a male?" Tu Lanxun asked an awkward question, "If they wanted to recreate Viola, wouldn't it be easier to make her a daughter?" She would also look more similar.
Wen Chong's eyes remained motionless. "No, they don't want to resurrect a living Viola. Otherwise, there would be no need to add their own genes. What they want is to maximize... let Viola..."
Tu Lanxun reacted: "Let Viola at least have a souvenir in this ridiculous world. Dong Tianlong is not a son, nor is he a bloodline heir. He is a walking souvenir that combines the genes of the three of them."
Just like when someone plays Minecraft in construction mode, he/she always wants to leave something of his/her own creation among the flat green mud and grass world.
"Perhaps this also explains why Kris Dong Yijian is so cruel to others. To some extent, they regard themselves as players in this game - assuming that the earth is a game - there are only three sober players who put their true selves into the outside world. At least that's what they think."
Wen Chong replied calmly, "Viola, Kris, Dong Yijian."
Tu Lanxun took a deep breath. "Viola committed suicide not only because her mortal body was about to end in agony from a terminal illness, but also because she had glimpsed the world outside Earth, which made her want to escape and look down on Earth. Later, it was proven that there are many horror game worlds, large and small, outside Earth, and there may be others."
Viola's suicide directly or indirectly awakened Kris to this point. He did not have the determination to leave the earth directly, but began to use his brain to study, and may have brought his equally smart and excellent brother Dong Yijian with him.
"Viola, Viola. She's not just Kris's AI wife, not some game character with a romantic connection, but a projection of all of Kris's highest emotions." Tu Lanxun felt like he had finally glimpsed a glimpse into Kris's inner world. He spoke slowly, "Love, dreams, regrets, longing for another world, the dignity of one's own strength..."
Even Kris's bizarre plan of heaven to invade the earth involves Viola, who is far away in the galaxy and dimension.
Kris is such a treacherous, cowardly yet genius conservative that he dares not commit suicide to follow to another world, but regards the earth as his own paradise.
But now, his business was almost destroyed by a slap in the face before it was even halfway started. As the person who unintentionally extended that hand, Tu Lanxun felt that Kris hated him deeply.
Wen Chong glanced at Tu Lanxun with amusement. "I've been sitting here for thirty minutes and still haven't figured something out, and you finally figured it out."
Tu Lanxun laughed and said, "If I were Kris, I would have three options."
"What?"
"Option One: Commit suicide immediately to evade responsibility, and let your soul journey to Viola's world. Option Two: Activate the Heavenly Kingdom Plan ahead of time, allowing a massive, mysterious invasion to slow down all official forces, and inflict devastation on the people in exchange for a breathing space for resistance."
A dark light flashed in Wen Chong's eyes, "What about the third one?"
Tu Lanxun said solemnly, "Plan three, implement Plans 1 and 2 simultaneously, using destruction as an offense, and prepare a contingency plan for 'upgrading'. We have to simultaneously face the enormous strange □□ and even the pressure on the front line, as well as the fact that Kris could escape at any time."
The glimmer in Wen Chong's eyes brightened a little, but then faded again. She said, "Very insightful. That's why we need you."
"Because of my special physique?" Tu Lanxun thought of her characteristics that were not restricted by the Fourth Treaty, and her ability to capture the core of the soul. Originally, she wanted to "look in the mirror" to see her soul, but she was interrupted by busy affairs and lost track of time.
Wen Chong didn't nod or shake his head, only saying, "That's the biggest reason, but it's not the only reason—you're one of the few people who can completely put themselves in Kris's shoes."
Tu Lanxun felt a cold feather sweep across her heart. She was stunned for a moment: "You won't doubt me, will you?"
I doubt her true nature. Her unscrupulous nature had already been proven once when she was sixteen, during the warehouse fire. And now the convenience store's power is growing...
In the comparison with the bad guys on the other side, Tu Lanxun's initial ecological niche is closer to Dong Tianlong, but his behavioral height and current form are closer to the Kris brothers.
If the Tu Group had not gone bankrupt and the original capital that Tu Lanxun inherited had not disappeared, what would have become of her?
…
It's not like Kris, is it? She doesn't have a dead ex-boyfriend, no voices from the other world constantly echoing in her ears, and no secret intimate communication with the dead...
etc?
Does any place sound familiar?
Tu Lanxun nearly choked on his own saliva, but upon seeing Wen Chong's playful look, he realized he was joking. However, it was hard to say whether there was more to it than a joke, a test or a warning.
Wen Chong stood up, "Okay, enough teasing, we should get going, Advisor."
Tu Lanxun followed slowly. Xianyu Qingyun, An Feng and Zheng Dongyang's team were almost there. Once the plane landed, they could transfer to another car to reach Xiaokun Mountain, and they had to synchronize their steps as well.
Xingfuquan Road remained the same, with no clear cordon around it, but sentries were set up on the roof and inside the building. Wen Chong and Tu Lanxun went up familiarly and came to the semi-enclosed, large balcony that looked like a green rainforest.
Every time he comes here, Tu Lanxun feels a sense of happiness as if he is breathing in the forest. Damn, why do Kris and Dong Yijian enjoy themselves so much?
The monitoring equipment around was always on, and the outline of the red hidden space automatically appeared on the computer screen, but it was still untouchable.
Sonia appeared beside Tu Lanxun, her enormous humpback whale tail swaying in circles. Wen Chong, who was standing beside her, looked up and greeted her, "Long time no see, Miss Sonia."
Sonia possessed and shook hands with Wen Chong, but neither of them mentioned how Sonia's previous revenge incident was resolved.
The effect of using a ghost to try to open the door was more significant than using a living person. Tu Lanxun and Wen Chong couldn't even find the location of the red space, but Sonia swam to the coordinates according to the map and casually slapped the air. "Bang."
Tu Lanxun was startled by the somewhat reckless voice. Sonia turned to look at her and sneered: "It can't be opened."
Sonia's palm could barely touch the edge of the red space, but not every inch. It was elusive, disappearing in a flash and then reappearing in a flash.
Wen Chong said to the staff member next to him, "Has the equipment I applied for been approved?"
The staff member said quickly, "It has been dispatched here." He took out a sophisticated black box.
The box was opened, revealing something that looked like a handheld electric drill and a laser pointer. Tu Lanxun watched Wen Chong pick up the handle, try the gear, and go straight to Sonia. With the extension line of the other's palm as the axis, Wen Chong pressed the switch, and the tip of the electric drill gun emitted light.
An orange-red ray of light was streaked across the air, outlining the outline of the red hidden space. Tu Lanxun even suspected that it would be cut open, just like a cardboard box being cut open by a courier knife.
But in the end, nothing happened, and the line was "eaten" by the invisible space.
While Wen Chong was silent, Tu Lanxun suddenly had an idea: "I have an idea."
"What method?"
"We chose the wrong person to open the door."
"oh?"
Tu Lanxun's eyes flashed with a slightly terrifying light, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "Invite Zheng Liefeng."
