Chapter 23 Mobius
Blaise and Shen Yan stayed together for three whole days.
I was forced to leave on the fourth day because of some work that had to be dealt with.
He closed the door and set an extremely complicated password for the room. Then he thought of Shen Yan and the boss behind Shen Yan who seemed to be proficient in hacking technology. He still felt it was not enough, so he placed a few companion robots that he had modified into the room.
These small robots are only half a person's height and have a delicate appearance.
Blaze named the robot that looked exactly like him and was the most exquisitely crafted as Xiaobu.
He made Xiaobu overnight while Chen Yan was sleeping for some purpose that made it inconvenient for him to think deeply. It was just for the sake of beauty and not too aggressive.
The rest of the robots won't be so harmless.
If Shen Yan successfully cracked the code without his permission and forcibly left the room, the potions and other tools hidden in the other robots would put Shen Yan into a deep sleep painlessly.
This way, he would have enough time to go home and have a good talk with Shen Yan.
Everything was ready. Blaise, who had just walked to the door, hurried back to Shen Yan's bed, stared at Shen Yan who was sleeping soundly after staying up all night, and went over the security measures in the room in his mind again. Only after making sure that Shen Yan could not escape did he really leave.
Shen Yan slept until noon.
He rubbed his eyes and heard a rustling sound beside him. He turned around and was unexpectedly frightened by the puppet next to him that was quietly watching him. He fell into a half-dream.
Xiaobu: "Good morning, Xiaoyan."
"Morning." After Shen Yan reacted, he turned to face Xiao Bu and said lazily, "I guess your name is Xiao Bu."
Xiaobu blinked his emerald green eyes in a very human way and said, "Congratulations, you guessed it right."
Shen Yan smiled: “Where’s the reward?”
Xiaobu thought for a while, flipped through the decorative pockets on his clothes, and looked at Ana Shen dejectedly, “Sorry, Xiaoyan, I’m a robot, I don’t have any money.”
Ana Shen was so cute that she pressed down the corners of her mouth and pretended to be angry, “What should I do then?”
"Sorry, Xiaoyan." Xiaobu said blankly, "I'm a robot, I don't know what to do."
Ana Shen laughed out loud, and said maliciously: “How come the little robot doesn’t know anything? Do you want me to teach you?”
Xiaobu was happy: "Okay."
Shen Yan originally wanted to let Xiaobu act cute and play a prank on Blaze's face, but it was too similar to Blaze. Shen Yan always felt a little guilty. He asked him while getting up, "What is one plus one?"
Xiaobu: “Two.”
Ana Shen stretched, opened the curtains to let the light in, and said with a smile, “What about two plus two?”
Xiao Bu slowly got up, followed Shen Yan's buttocks, and answered in confusion: "Si, do you need me to organize a basic number operation table for you?"
Shen Yan continued: “What about seven eight □□ five plus five one two two six six nine?”
The sudden surge in difficulty is no different from one plus one for artificial intelligence.
Xiaobu quickly replied, "Five-two-zero-one-three-one-four."
Ana Shen was washing up, her mouth full of foam, she lowered her head, and said to Xiao Bu with a triumphant smile: “I like Xiao Bu too, thank you.”
Xiaobu was stunned for a while before he remembered to search for Internet terms. After seeing the meaning of this string of numbers, he quickly imported it into his own program so that he could use it as a reward in the future.
And organize the situation this morning and synchronize it to Blaise's terminal.
Ana Shen walked around the room. Blaise told him last night that he would be very busy afterwards, so he was not surprised that Blaise was not there.
But he was a man who couldn't sit still. After playing games with Xiaobu for a while, he felt bored, poured himself some wine, and went to the window to look at the scenery.
The castle covers a large area. The jagged spikes of the Gothic-style castle point straight to the sky. In order to distinguish Mobius from other ordinary people, they joined forces with other families a hundred years ago to forcibly change the terrain, turning the originally relatively flat and open seven districts into artificial concentric circle stairs.
They are independent above the clouds, and all the surrounding infrastructure serves these families.
In order to make it look more popular and lively, and to make it easier for them to select slaves, thousands of third-class citizens who have been strictly screened are sent to Eden IX every year.
For third-class citizens, this is a leap forward; their efforts are recognized, and the reward is to live next to families like the Mobius, who symbolize power and wealth.
If I were lucky enough to meet Mobius one day, and be appreciated by them, or even join Mobius to work for them...
That would not only bring them enormous wealth, they could also use Mobius' power to become the most powerful people in District 7.
Ana Shen has heard Blaise talk a lot about District 7 these days.
Mobius likes to play redemption games. He would first set traps for his prey, bring them to the bottom of the valley, and then appear as a hero. In this way, he could easily gain that person's admiration and all his loyalty.
He uses power and money to wrap his rotten and stupid self in a noble and elegant manner, and then takes whatever he wants under the banner of love. The prey is afraid but also envious of the wealth that seems to be within reach. Under Mobius's repeated temptations and guidance, in order to prove his "love", he gives away everything little by little.
Anyway, you are rich enough and any organ in your body can be reshaped by machinery. You can get what you want as long as you endure it. Why not do it?
So Blaise warned Ana Shen very seriously, telling him never to step out of the house without his company.
A healthy natural person who has not been transformed at all, a healthy personality full of vitality and vigor, has a taboo attraction for Mobius who lives in darkness and distortion.
Some of the tribesmen who were not so clear-headed might risk crossing Blaze and hurting him when they were sick.
Shen Yan took a sip of wine. There was a lively laughter coming from the forest not far from the castle. Shen Yan used the telescope function of the terminal and looked over curiously.
At the junction of the forest and the grassland, several blond Mobius stood together, talking about something, with ropes of various styles in their hands. At the other end of the ropes were several humans who were not highly modified and were dressed beautifully.
They were also talking to each other, their voices much quieter than those of Mobius, and there was no fear or panic in their expressions, only a sense of being tamed and at ease.
After the Mobius agreed on the rules, they took off the collars from their necks, gave each of them a basic weapon, and drove them into the deep forest.
They have positioning and monitoring systems on them, and Mobius can check their situation through terminal screen projection.
Ana Shen glanced at the projection screen. Those people were injected with drugs, and their movements became more agile and their strength increased. Even if they were injured, they only screamed and had no intention of retreating.
The Mobius went to the barbecue grill that had been prepared on the lawn. They played and joked with each other, and the sunlight fell on their sickly white skin and light blonde hair, making them look as if they were glowing.
Just looking at this beautiful scene, no one would think that their next meal is the injury and death of their own kind.
Shen Yan looked at him for a long time, and a tall young man noticed his gaze, turned his head and accurately found Shen Yan's position, and the two looked at each other from a distance.
The distance was very far, and to Shen Yan they were just small dots, and they looked at Shen Yan the same way.
Ana Shen drank the wine slowly before closing the window and leaving the man’s sight.
On the grass, the young man surrounded by people suddenly laughed.
"Is that Blaze's new toy?"
"Yes, Dad." Aiya's arms tightly held the rabbit, "My brother played with him for three whole days! I made delicious cookies for my brother and wanted to share them with him, but he just used the robot to get rid of me. He didn't even let me into the house and didn't even treat me as his wife!"
Bosen patted Aiya's head gently. "Poor little Aiya, tell me the name of that toy, okay?"
“His name is Shen Yan.”
“…Shen Yan.”
Bosen chewed on these two words in his mouth. His appearance was as gentle and elegant as his temperament, like a popular teacher in a university classroom. When he smiled, he was like a spring breeze, making people want to be close to him.
But the Mobius knew Bosen's true nature.
Someone is going to be in trouble.
Aya looked at Bosen with sparkling eyes, and the others also smelled something unusual and started asking him whether they were going to steal Blaise's toys, how to do it, what to do with them after getting them, etc.
Bosen took a piece of cake, and the soft and dense cream melted in his mouth. He savored the sweetness in his mouth and said meaningfully: "It is not advisable to lose one's ambition by playing with things. We are just helping Blaze solve the problem. How can it be considered as robbery?"
Several little Mobius were stunned for a moment, then they started laughing and echoed, completely agreeing with Bosen's opinion.
This is much more interesting than watching slaves killing each other. Aya couldn't wait to ask: "When do we start? Blaze's room is hard to enter, how do we get access?"
"Why do we need permission?" Bosen still smiled, "Can't we just let the little toy open the door for us?"
-
The day after leaving home, Blaze's terminal received a message that the gate password was being cracked.
He couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or what, but his expression became even colder.
Mingming had repeated to Ana Shen many times not to go out, and Ana Shen had already promised him, but he still did not abide by the agreement between the two.
But he couldn’t stand it for two days, and Ana Shen didn’t seem to regard him as a friend.
Blaise won't be back until the day after tomorrow at the earliest. These two days' work is very important and he cannot make any mistakes. Even the slightest emotion cannot be caught by his opponent.
He closed the terminal and changed the settings of several other robots, asking them to stop reporting Shen Yan's behavior synchronously so that they could concentrate on their work.
On Saturday, Blaise stood at the bedroom door like a stone sculpture, looking stiffly at the violently demolished door and the messy bedroom.
The several robots he used to control Ana Shen were dismantled and lying crookedly on the ground. The injections stored in their bodies had been used up. There were many messy black footprints on the ground. Everything in the room had been turned out. It was not difficult to see how crazy those who broke in by force were.
Blaise felt dizzy and he held onto the broken wall to ease the sudden dizziness. Veins bulged on the back of his hands and he squeezed the hard steel that imitated stone into the shape of fingers.
When the feeling finally faded, Blaise straightened his back and walked into the room.
His bedroom was so thoroughly dismantled that there was almost no place to stand, and Blaise thought as he walked, where is Ana Shen?
Was it also like his home, torn apart and destroyed by those people?
He shouldn't have indulged himself.
It has been like this since I was a child.
As long as he showed clear aesthetic tendencies that were not in line with the Mobius family's, the things he liked would inexplicably disappear and then reappear bloody and rotten the next day.
Later, when he was in his current position, no one could treat him like this anymore, so he started to grow bolder and wanted more.
He became Shen Yan’s unprovoked disaster.
His eye sockets were hot but his eyeballs were dry. Standing in the ruins, Blaze once again felt the desire to burn everything.
Until he heard a familiar voice.
"You are finally back."
He turned his head suddenly and saw Ana Shen leaning against the window and walking into the room, with a frightened Xiao Bu hanging on his shoulder.
Blaise didn't react for a moment, staring blankly at Ana Shen walking towards him, and punched him on the shoulder neither lightly nor heavily.
"Your brothers and sisters are really sick. When I told them not to open the door, they went crazy. They used high technology, bombs and lasers, and made a huge noise."
"Fortunately, I was smart. I climbed out through the window and hung on the wall. I didn't come back until they left."
"By the way, why didn't you answer my message? I thought something happened to you."
Blaise looked at Ana Shen steadily, and suddenly said, “Let’s go.”
Shen Yan: “What?”
"Let's go." Blaze pulled Ana Shen, his eyes became firm, "Let's go to a place where only we are."
