Chapter 98 Don’t lie to me, I’ll forget it after a long time
"Where are you going? Then I'll go with you."
Sister Lan uttered a rebuking "tsk!" "What nonsense are you talking about? You're not even going to work? How can you be so willful? Can you please mind my life or death?"
Zhou Youlan ignored her. "Is it urgent? If not, wait until I finish this offline event, and then I'll go with you."
Wei Wei has been by his side since the filming of the show ended. His work and life are closely related to him. What private affairs could he have?
"No, it's just some personal stuff."
Zhou Youguan opened his lips. If he asked any further, it would seem like he was inquiring into his privacy. If it were him, he wouldn't like being probed like that, without any privacy.
"Ah'an..."
Wei Wei interrupted immediately: "I am not your pet. Even if we are in an employment relationship, I should have my own private space and time."
These words were hurtful. Everyone could see how Zhou Youlan treated him. This was just a normal greeting and concern. Wei Wei's answer was a bit cruel.
The light in Zhou Youlan's eyes dimmed noticeably, and Wei Wei softened his tone, "Let me and you take some time off."
There is no need for them to be so polite and distant to each other.
"Then I'll let Big Monkey take you." Zhou Youguan forced a smile. "You can't drive, so I'm confident he can take you."
"Need not."
Zhou Youguan pursed his lips in grievance, and Wei Wei had no choice but to coax him, "I will report my life to you every day and will not cut off contact with you."
"Really?" Zhou Youwan finally felt relieved. "Okay, Ah Yuan, it's a deal. You can't lie to me."
Wei Wei concealed the surging emotions in his eyes and said gently, "I won't lie to you."
Zhou Youlan was very uneasy. He didn't know why, perhaps because it was the first time he was separated from Wei Wei, and he was very anxious.
But he didn't dare to bother Wei Wei.
…
That night, Wei Wei left the hotel.
But before that, he had contacted Zhang Longtong.
The person who came to pick him up was as silent as a robot along the way. The car stopped for a while at the place where he had lost his final direction when he came here before. Then he was blindfolded and the vehicle continued to drive.
This is indeed not the final destination.
After driving for about another hour, the vehicle finally stopped.
This place is more like a pipe entrance, but it is wider and very dark, almost pitch black.
They walked along the pipe for nearly ten minutes, and after many turns, they finally arrived at an elevator.
Wei Wei observed that all the tests here were for fingerprints, and no one could get out without someone carrying them.
The elevator traveled for about a minute, and then Wei Wei was taken into another elevator, changed again, and finally arrived.
When the elevator door opened, the sudden brightness made Wei Wei close his eyes for a moment.
Wei Wei stepped out of the elevator. The place was brightly lit and separated by transparent glass. It was filled with instruments. The numbers on the projection screen kept jumping. From time to time, people in white coats walked around, fiddling with the electronic instruments and recording some data that he could not understand.
As they walked further, the guide stopped, turned around and said to him, "You can't take anything with you in."
Wei Wei didn't have anything extra on him, just a set of clothes and a sword.
"We have a requirement that no weapons are allowed inside."
Wei Wei hesitated. This sword was of great significance and importance to him. He had lost it once and didn't want to lose it again. He had to keep it with him no matter what.
Seeing that he didn't move, the man wanted to go forward and take it away by force.
Wei Wei dodged his touch by moving sideways, and at the same time, a voice call came from above his head.
"03, let him in."
It was a man's voice, probably in his thirties.
The transparent partition door in front slowly added a layer of hazy curtain from the left and right sides. When it was opened again, the scene was completely different from before.
It seemed like the rotation of physical space, but Wei Wei still couldn't figure out how it was done.
He walked in. It was still as bright as day, with electronic beeps interlaced with each other, slow and rapid. There were four beds lined up side by side in the laboratory. People were sleeping on the first three beds, both men and women. They looked calm, as if they had just fallen into a deep sleep.
If it weren't for the faint movement of his breathing, I would have suspected he was dead.
The bed was covered with a transparent screen, and light blue subtitles displayed their identity information. Wei Wei glanced at it casually, and saw their real-time physical condition, heart rate, and even their subjective consciousness language floating in the air.
Wei Wei frowned slightly. He should be right. That should be the subject's language information.
Some of them were asking for help, some were regretting, and some were cursing...
Something suddenly connected in Wei Wei's mind, but before he could think about it, someone interrupted his thoughts.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Wei Wei."
The man was more handsome than he had imagined, but he looked very thin, with skin that was an unhealthy pale color from years of not seeing the sun. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and looked gentle, but his eyes were eerily sinister and made people feel uncomfortable.
Dai Leng's eyes were filled with a faint fiery heat, as if he had suddenly found a treasure, and his eyes were full of inquiry towards Wei Wei.
"It's really different." Dai Leng circled around him, his tone full of amazement, "Your physique hasn't been affected at all. It's amazing."
"Your purpose."
Wei Wei is very direct.
This made Dai Leng stunned for a moment, and he suddenly laughed: "Don't be anxious, shouldn't you get to know me first?"
Wei Wei remained silent. He was very passive, but he had seen many scenes of life and death, so he could remain calm no matter what unknown danger he faced.
"My name is Dai Ling. I've been researching parallel time travel for over a decade. I've conducted no fewer than a hundred experiments over the years, but I've always been the one sending people back. I've never been able to bring back anyone from another era because I've always failed. They've all been annihilated in the time tunnel. You're the first person to successfully travel from another era to the modern era."
“…”
It sounds incredible, but it's true.
So those sleeping people are the ones he sent to different eras through parallel time and space?
Wei Wei felt that this was very anti-human, and the frequent intersection of time and space would only bring unknown disasters to that era.
"This is a great research. You know, as long as my experiment succeeds, I will become the master of every era. It will be easy to control this era as I wish." Dai Leng became more and more excited. "They will become what I want them to be. I will change history and change the world."
"The butterfly effect will do the trick."
Dai Leng's eyes were filled with greed, and he was as crazy as a madman.
But this madman seems to have some skills.
"So, what do you want?"
Want to get something from him.
Dai Leng's excitement came to an abrupt end. He retracted his raised hands, pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and calmed down instantly. His expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
"I'll take you back to your own era." Dai Leng said seriously, "To be honest, I'm also very interested in this era."
Wei Wei's gaze fell on the sleeping people. "And then, like them, you will be constantly watching and controlling them."
Dai Leng: "There are always people who are greedy. They promise me they'll be under my control before they go, but over time, they start to resist having their subjective consciousness implanted, which makes me very unhappy. As test subjects, they should know their role. Trying to get rid of it will only lead to death."
"You still haven't told me what you want me to do."
"Hmm..." Dai Leng walked back and forth with his chin in his hand. "You are different from them. Controlling consciousness and controlling the subject and consciousness are two different experimental subjects. If the subject and consciousness exist at the same time, it will probably be more difficult to control them."
"But it's also more challenging!" Dai Leng instantly became excited again.
If he succeeds in this experiment, he will be able to control everyone and any world at will. The huge benefits are unimaginable.
Dai Leng looked at him with a sinister smile: "I want you to obey me completely."
"It's a fair exchange for letting me take you back."
"You have no choice. Believe me, here, no one can make you go back except me. In fact, I was responsible for your coming here in the first place."
In fact, that was also one of his failed experiments. The Blood Moon discovered a crack in the space-time tunnel and accidentally brought Wei Wei here.
Wei Wei was shocked that the future world had developed to such a terrifying level. It was obvious that Dai Leng's experiment had succeeded more than once, and failed more than once. He had only seen puppets having their consciousness controlled.
But now it seems that those people are also another form of puppets.
This is not a good thing. If Dai Leng really reaches the point where he can manipulate the changes in time and space at will, it will probably be a disaster for all ages, because Dai Leng is obviously an ambitious person.
Wei Wei lowered his eyes, his mind already turning in a thousand turns, but at this moment he had to go back, no matter what the cost.
"I accept your terms."
He couldn't say but, because Dai Leng was now the complete leader.
Dai Leng wanted to implant a chip the size of a fingernail into him. Wei Wei didn't know how such a small chip could completely control his consciousness.
Soon Wei Wei was taken to another room, where Dai Leng wanted to conduct various physical examinations on him, a process that might take a day.
During this period, Dai Leng kept showing off his various experimental results. Anyone who heard these remarks would think they were just wild and exaggerated imaginations, but Dai Leng had already succeeded.
Wei Wei remained silent. He just listened quietly and analyzed countermeasures secretly.
No one would want to have their consciousness completely controlled by another person and be driven by others. Perhaps some people sell themselves out in order to experience life in another time and space, but Wei Wei himself is a person from another era.
Wei Wei's physical condition was better than Dai Leng had imagined, and he was quickly sent to the transport cabin.
"Actually, there's no need to go through so much trouble when something unusual happens in the sky, but there's nothing we can do. It's been over half a year since the last blood moon appeared, and that was when you came."
Dai Leng confirmed once more that the chip had been implanted in his body and smiled with satisfaction: "Don't even think about removing it. No one except me can completely remove it."
Wei Wei clenched the sword in his hand and suddenly thought of Zhou Youlan.
From their first meeting to the gradual easing of their relationship on the show, Zhou Youlan thought she was his suitor and had been avoiding him, but later she fell in love with him first.
And he also developed feelings for Zhou Youlan during their daily interactions.
But fortunately, time can erase everything.
After a long time, you will forget it.
As he stroked the bracelet on his wrist, he could already imagine how heartbroken Zhou Youlan would be when he discovered the truth and realized that he would never be able to find him again.
"Good luck." Dai Leng closed the hatch.
The air became congested, making it almost impossible to breathe. Wei Wei quickly fell into a coma. Before he closed his eyes, he could only see Dai Leng's calculating eyes, and then there was eternal darkness...
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Dai Leng's research is like the system in the plot of a book, anyway, it's roughly that idea.
Wei Wei is going back to ancient times to kill, kill, kill. The story won’t be too long and will be over soon.
