Chapter 55
Night. Deep blue.
The sound of light footsteps and the rubbing of clothes easily woke up Shen Jian.
He opened his eyes and was silent for a while, looking at the room in front of him which was almost identical to the leader's room in the Source World.
He sat on the dark red sofa placed in the corner opposite the desk.
Shen Jian moved the muscles on the side of his hand very slowly, and a rare sense of horror flowed through his blood vessels.
Although he had a very obscure and brain-twisting information exchange with the leader, he should not have hallucinations... Thirty minutes ago, he had just closed his eyes and fell asleep in the dark leader's room covered with curtains because he had finally solved all the existing mysteries.
Instead of appearing in a leader's room that looked like neither the source world nor this world, he seemed to be dead - he meant that it seemed as if this leader could not see him.
Shen Jian just hoped that it wasn't the next damn world change. Please forgive him. The workload in the past few months was more tiring than correcting documents for ten consecutive years!
He lowered his eyes and gently stroked the cotton-wool armrest on the palm of his hand, then clenched his palm and put his fingertips into the palm of his hand.
…is a physical entity. It can touch objects and feel pain.
However, this does not mean that there is a high probability that this is reality.
Shen Jian stroked the communicator and Solomon's chip that suddenly disappeared on the inside of his wrist, and his heart finally calmed down.
He finally turned his gaze and looked at the other self in front of him.
Exactly the same look, black hair and black eyes, a military uniform similar to the one he wore during the war, with a cape half hanging on the ground.
The other person was correcting documents, with a superior and gentle aura of a high position settled in his eyes, and his whole body was surrounded by elegance that he unconsciously exuded from the long-term baptism of aristocratic etiquette.
……Wait a mininute.
Shen Jian, who had been slightly relaxed, realized something and slowly opened his eyes wide, fixing his gaze on the other person's fingertips.
A pot of familiar-looking white tuberose was being taken very good care of, blooming happily in its own small pot.
There is a piece of white and soft cloth at the corner, which seems to blend in with the petals. It can be seen that it has been decorated with care.
Shen Jian swore by his excellent eyesight that he clearly saw the words written on the cloth: "Shen Ansong, only Mr. and I can water it personally, otherwise (a staggered scratch, as if it was scratched by many people)."
All of Shen Jian's guesses about the current situation exploded with this pot of flowers. He finally understood the leader's feelings when he faced him, that he had already guessed it, but just didn't want to admit it in person.
——He also has a pot of tuberose, although it was trimmed to pieces by him within a week after Shen An sent it over, and it should be in Shen Xiuzhu's hands now.
No matter how similar the parallel worlds are, they shouldn't correspond in every detail... Otherwise, why don't countless parallel worlds simply merge into one world?
Staring at the other self who had sorted out all the documents, Shen Jian sincerely felt that the headache that he had just recovered from was coming back to him again.
——Damn it, was this his dream? Could this person be himself before he lost his memory?
Only this answer is more in line with the norm. After all, he has solved all the clues he left behind, and his memory should be opening up to him step by step.
Shen Jian thought so, but casually shook off his thoughts, and turned around to think deeply for a while whether to go up and punch this guy now. And because this guy is also him, he doesn't know whether the pain will be fed back to him and regret giving up.
Look, look! This guy has only been working for a short time, but he has already finished reviewing all the documents! And he, on average, has not even slept two hours a day in the past three months.
Shen Jian glanced at himself gloomily, gritted his teeth and sneered, then crossed his legs and put his arms at his sides.
"If it wouldn't interrupt... our progress, I would have to drag you out and give you a good beating sooner or later." The young man muttered softly to the air.
“Well…it doesn’t seem to work.” [Chen Jian] seemed to have heard the abuse, and responded gently and softly while holding a document, with a little mischief and smile at the end.
Shen Jian raised his eyelids, indifferent to himself who exuded a strong leadership charisma.
Sure enough, the other party was not talking to him at all.
[Chen Jian] put down the documents and called his subordinates through the intercom, "Sorry, everyone in the Fire Seed Group, I need you to come here."
Shen Jian pulled the corner of his mouth and watched [Shen Jian] lower his head again to pick up the pen and cross out some content.
…Has he been this type of leader before?
Chen Jian fell into a second period of contemplation, and glanced curiously and cautiously at Chen Jian's gentle smile that was always on his face.
He had ample reasons to doubt whether he had beautified himself. After all, this was a "dream" that he had unlocked and that was set up by his previous self, so it should be natural for him to manipulate this dream.
While Shen Jian calmly waited for the door beside him to be opened, he couldn't help but drift to another realm because of what he was thinking.
It was not until thirty minutes ago that he, or rather, the entire Wuyan Tower, understood why the Wuyan Tower had developed quantum transmission.
Shen Wenyan was responsible for the development of all space and time projects. With this kind of wall-breaking space transmission method alone, he could surpass Shen An's [Quantum Weapon Manufacturing] and become the second level of Wuyan Tower's authority, but he didn't.
Thinking about it this way, even if [Space Expansion and Contraction Technology] was released, Shen Tu did not send Shen Jian a proposal document to "increase Shen Wenyan's authority by one level", not once. Even Shen Wenyan himself never complained about it.
This means... at the very least, he was not the person in charge of the main research, or in other words, there is another more realistic possibility: he took over the research and development when his predecessors had already made great breakthroughs.
And the leader simply solved Shen Jian’s confusion: the so-called "great breakthroughs of predecessors" were most likely the remains of historical data that had not yet completely cleaned up from the last reincarnation after the world was restarted.
When Chen Jian was confronting the leader, both the Wuyan Tower in this world and the Wuyan Tower in the source world that appeared in this world in the form of a circular projection were very clear that this "very likely" could be determined to be an infinite non-repeating decimal with a probability of 99.99%.
In other words, Shen Wenyan developed quantum teleportation entirely based on his previous research.
As soon as these words came out, Shen Jian took off the micro headset in a hurry, and threw it on the table under the kind smiles of a group of direct descendants of the Wuyan Tower in this world.
As expected, the faint tail sound floating in the air showed how excited Shen Wenyan was: if he dared to kick the door of Shen Jian's leadership room to chase Shen An, he must have the courage to smash the ornaments in Shen An's office.
Of course, Shen Wenyan still firmly believes that he is a civilian.
It is said that Shen Tu has been writing the promotion report document with cold sweat on his face under the coercion of the other party, and he is just waiting for Shen Jian to go back and sign.
And Shen Jian was just glad that he saved his ears.
Now that he saw [Chen Jian], Shen Jian truly understood why his subordinates were sometimes so unscrupulous and insolent… For example, Shen Wenyan’s roar just now, cough.
He had reason to suspect that this was all [Chen Jian]'s habit, and he would have to bear the consequences now.
Shen Jian exhaled a foul breath, and saw out of the corner of his eye that the door was opened a little. He paused and tilted his head with interest.
Shen An stepped into the leadership room with a soft smile, followed by a dozen tightly wrapped researchers.
"Sir? You're looking for me." He asked softly, stopping three steps away from [Shen Jian]. The researchers behind him bowed their heads in tacit understanding.
"Ah, Shen An." [Shen Jian] smiled, stood up and picked up the cloak, "The Spark needs to change the external plan, we need some disguises."
Shen An was slightly startled, his eyes swaying back and forth as [Shen Jian] checked the cloak, "What do you mean...?"
He didn't dare to guess what the leader meant, even though he had a slight premonition in his heart when he stepped in here.
The coolness climbed up his fingertips, and the clear sound of his heart beating made him more nervous and stiffer than the previous second.
Sure enough, the gentleman said nonchalantly with a warm and lively smile, "We need a scapegoat to protect this weak spark? Well... although it makes me sound like a villain."
[Chen Jian] gently lowered his hand and touched the tuberose, and seemed to think for a while, "We will release some information that is not in our public research field. The research project that leads to the output of this information is called [Fire Seed]."
"Oh," the gentleman seemed to have thought of something, and tapped his left hand on the palm of his right hand, "Hasn't the control panel been idle lately?"
Shen An forced himself to turn his thoughts around, only to realize that this organization had just ended a bloody leadership change, and the battlefield seemed to be in the civilian city that Mr. cherished very much.
The gentleman smiled and said, "Then let's give this good task to the operation desk and give them something to do... Of course, I mean, we still have to recycle this achievement."
Seeing Shen An's back getting stiffer by the second, Shen Jian calmly took back the excellent evaluation he had just given to [Shen Jian].
He noticed that Shen An was in an abnormal state, but could it be that Shen Jian couldn't notice it?
Shen Jian took a quick glance and could see that [Shen Jian] looked at Shen An, who lowered his head and dared not speak, with a slightly appreciative look, as if he regarded this as a way to relax, and his eyebrows relaxed slightly.
……really.
Shen Jian looked away and sneered silently.
He never thought that he had once taken the frightened expressions of his subordinates as work entertainment, and viciously nailed his original self to the bad pillar of a person with bad taste and fun.
Of course, it wasn't just the way he teased Shen An that looked extremely hateful. The most hateful thing was that Shen Jian's words very clearly revealed how Yun entered the Wuyan Tower at that time.
In other words, Yun was "recovered" by Chen Lanhe. Even if the child came here on his own, it is possible that Chen Lanhe guided him there.
...Therefore, since Shen Jian met Yun but did not recognize "Solomon", the research he gave himself, he had already exposed the fact that he "came back but lost his memory".
Shen Jian: “…”
Shen Jian endured for a while, but finally couldn't help it and punched the other person when [Shen Jian] passed by the door.
No, that is to say, if he had been exposed at that time, then wouldn’t his subsequent series of performances have been without Yanta acting with him?
Maybe, she might even share with him behind his back, smiling, "How did the gentleman try so hard to cover his exposed vest today?"
Shen Jian hugged his weak and helpless self painfully.
