Chapter 179 Lies

Until I saw the strange spirits congratulating each other and leaving with those people...

Xu Yihua was still a little dazed.

The coffee made her not feel sleepy at this moment. When she opened her phone to check the trending searches, she found that all the negative things discussed before were also covered by new things.

The hot search term "from the second dimension to the third dimension" that appeared for a moment also fell out of the rankings in the first time.

Xu Yihua tried to smile a few times, but he just couldn't.

Somehow, she pushed open the door of the clean and tidy guest room, looked at the white shirt thrown on the bed, and suddenly realized that she had done a lot of irrational things last night.

But fortunately, she regained her sanity in the end.

Even though I know the matter has been resolved, I still feel a little empty deep down.

Xu Yihua covered his chest and said to himself, "I feel like if I keep him here, I can avoid this feeling."

But it definitely won’t work.

Xu Yihua did not have the courage to bring unknown disaster to the country that gave birth to and educated him by himself.

Therefore, even though she felt uncomfortable, she could only pray, hoping that the spirit He Jingtong could complete his goal sooner and leave here.

"The miracle is over, now it's time to sleep."

…

On the other hand, the alien spirit He Jingtong who was taken away also faced a lot, whether it was verifying his identity, proving that he was harmless, or taking the initiative to take out the Nine Gates and handing over dangerous objects that symbolized weapons to others...

He thought he had done a good job on the scattered details, but he never put down the comic book in his hand.

The action of taking a knife from the air once again deepened the officials' understanding.

Comics are ultimately for children.

So when a group of official personnel and the alien spirit He Jing sat together, reading comics in the dim morning light with a cup of hot tea each, this picture always had an inexplicably harmonious, yet inexplicably weird sense of déjà vu.

Until the end, when both parties were sure that they understood the information, the person who invited the spirit He Jingtong to have tea spoke first: "If you are really the character named Yiling He Jingtong in this comic, then you...are you no longer a human being?"

"I thought that before you knew whether I was a human or not, you were more concerned about whether I would cause harm to the world." The alien He Jingtong also closed the comic book.

The place they are currently in is not the visiting area of ​​the police station, but a real interrogation room.

But because there are so many people here, it doesn’t seem so cold.

"That's indeed the case." The initiative of the conversation was taken by the person sitting on the right hand side of the alien spirit He Jingtong.

"This is definitely what we care about the most. However, judging from the fact that you have not resisted and have been cooperating with us, whether subjectively or objectively, I think you have no intention of actively harming others."

"Secondly, the incident happened too suddenly. The lady named Xu Yihua did not take any protective measures when she met you. So I assume that you may not be carrying any high-risk viruses."

"Of course, this lax assumption is only to allow us to take you from a civilian's home to an official territory in the shortest possible time to avoid causing greater harm, rather than a true assessment that you are not a threat. And next, you still need to do some physical examinations, in addition to blood draws, including some of your nails and hair."

"After that, it's almost time to make some indicators to confirm your level of strength." The man unfolded the comic book, and the picture showed the scene when the actress Ji Yu was in a car accident and the alien spirit He Jingtong stopped a high-speed car by himself.

This is just a plot from the early days of the comics.

When He Jingtong becomes even stronger, the alien He Jingtong will also use the abilities of time and space...

All I can say is that even for official personnel, it takes some time for them to accept the information about the rules of the other world.

The physical examination period is a time of acceptance.

Just as the person who grasped the topic and finished talking about the key points in one breath said, the spirit He Jingtong was really cooperative, whether it was the subsequent physical examination or taking the initiative to pull out the hair...

At the same time, official staff are sorting out more questions and waiting for his reply.

There is a saying that goes, "Those who are not my kind must have different hearts." No one can guarantee that those who come from another world and are not human beings are safe and harmless.

However, when the alien He Jingtong finished his physical examination and was halfway through filling out a form with a lot of questions, the people who had been surrounding him and paying attention to him suddenly heard him say, "Compared to whether I can still use the power of time and space in this world, I think what you are more concerned about is whether this world will be breached on a large scale by beings from another dimension."

"What do you mean?" Everyone became nervous immediately.

"You can try to investigate the author of the "Alien" comics."

After this sentence was said, no matter how much the subsequent investigation and evidence collection pointed, they could not find the real author Jing. At most, they could point to the system as an existence that could be found but could not be accurately locked. And the real original author of "Oddity".

However, the information that the author who won 50 million in the lottery can provide will only point to him as a simple story creator. The original "Otherworldly" can only be interpreted as the author accidentally glimpsing everything in the other world and choosing to draw it...

What about the new "Alien"?

Who drew this?

The alien He Jingtong knew very well that these actions would temporarily label him as high-risk, but this was also his purpose.

Then he slowly picked up the pen and filled in the form filled with questions, saying that he had no way to use time and space in this world, perhaps because of the oppression of a purely materialistic rule...

But other than that, all abilities related to the spirit itself can be used.

All of them, regardless of what label they are, have the same goal of making "Alien" truly move from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, getting rid of the state of observation and being able to influence fate.

And what they all chose to do was to shape the system into a truly extremely dangerous entity.

It's just that even though the other party is at high risk, he can't really read other people's minds.

The comics are drawn by the system, and the discrepancy between the comics and the facts lies in the tiny resistance made by the guys who are aware that they are being observed, doing their best.

This is a drama that will deceive the entire alien world——

But there is still truth in comics.

For example, the alien He Jingtong that has been evaluated many times is nothing more than a non-human state, and He Jingtong who cannot perceive the emotions in the memory...

This will also be information that everyone in the other world will know.

As for the alien spirit He Jingtong, he will push all the investigations and evidence collection, all of which will lead to the conclusion he wants.

.

"The medical examination report is out, he is healthy."

"What kind of outrageous conclusion is that he is healthy... an inhuman medical report says he is healthy?"

"So should I tell you that he also has some calcium deficiency, which looks like a nutritional deficiency caused by growth stagnation...? Do you think that would make more sense than what I said above?"

“…”

"All medical reports indicate that he is no different from the people here."

"But he can create something out of nothing, like taking out that ritual knife."

"And if you think that a medical report alone can prove that he has some kind of paranoia, then you can just use the comics and have him demonstrate some of the abilities in the comics. Anyway, I don't think any normal person can hold up a high-speed sports car with one hand, and..."

"If we really can't draw blood and do other detailed examinations, that would be even more terrifying."

"That means we will have no effect on him, and since his body is still physical, it means that bullets and other weapons can cause damage to him. In general, his danger to us has been greatly reduced in a sense. We are no longer like those people in the comics who can only rely on spiritualists to fight."

"I feel relieved..."

"So how's the investigation into the author of 'Alien' going?"

"I found two authors. One exists but doesn't exist. The other is currently traveling in Yunnan and was hospitalized for eating mushrooms..."

"???"

…

The above dialogues all took place in a location that the alien spirits could not hear.

When talking to a group of people again, the first thing that the alien spirit He Jingtong said was: "Did you find anything wrong?"

“That’s hard to say.”

The official personnel of the original version of "Alien" have been found on the Internet and they are vague about it.

In this person's logical cognition, there is a very obvious message, that is, as a being from another world, it is impossible for him to have any theoretical understanding of this world.

Therefore, before the alien spirit He Jingtong wants to obtain any information, he must first provide them with information that they do not understand.

The same attitude when viewing supernatural phenomena also symbolizes this.

Being vague means that the alien He Jingtong needs to give information first before he can think about whether he should respond to the information.

The not-at-all-stupid spirit He Jingtong said in the first sentence: "I have read most of the comics. Although I may not understand some of the details so thoroughly, I can tell you with certainty that there are obvious differences between this comic and what I have actually experienced."

These words immediately aroused everyone's vigilance.

"What I mean is that all the characteristics displayed by the Occult He Jingtong in the comics are indeed me, but the overall expression mode of the comics is still one-sided, one that is consistent with the facts, but also has obvious differences."

"For example...?" The person who asked the question couldn't help but become solemn.

"For example, I have never had a real hostile relationship with the otherworldly."

"For example, He Jingtong is not as simple as he appears in the comics."

"For example, the existence of the 'Observer'."

His words made everyone's breathing become heavy.

"I guess you don't quite understand what the word Observer means, but I can explain it now..."

The alien spirit He Jingtong explained to the humans in the other world in a clear and concise manner that, compared to the situation in the comic where the story begins with He Wanchen encountering misfortune, the real fact is that He Jingtong was told by a being called the System that his world is false.

Yi Ling He Jingtong later stated that he came to the system just to complete his thesis.

However, related information, such as the achievement of 100 million points to reach the third dimension, and He Jingtong's ability to control the direction of comics, were all hidden.

"That being from the fourth dimension saw the fate of my world and tried to make He Jingtong, who knew at that time that he would die in the future, try to reverse and change his fate."

One recorder blurted out: "It's just like the golden finger in some novels..."

Another person who was in the same information exchange position as the spirit He Jing said: "What happened next?"

"I don't think anyone would believe that the future would be like that just because someone told them about their fate. So He Jingtong chose to verify whether the future was really like what the system said."

"And Jiang Nan's death is the greatest proof..."

"The future is like the information given by the observer, it is a destiny that has been determined."

The spirit He Jingtong chose to change the subject at this moment and continued in another way: "I think you should have some guesses, for example, prophecy is not so much a prophecy as it is a certain destiny line that is showing another destiny line that has not experienced that destiny from a pure information perspective."

"So He Jingtong assumed that the observer could travel through time."

"He Jingtong believed that the observer came to the beginning from his death node, and hoped to see that he could influence and change his fate. But the reality is that after the fate was told, the display of this fate line that was supposed to be made by another fate line became an established fact."

"Even if we can save people and change a lot, death will still come as expected."

The spirit He Jingtong said in a calm and emotionless tone: "From the moment He Jingtong was subjected to the spirit experiment, he knew he would die."

"But the fate affected by the observer will not end with his death..."

"A world has a future. What observers value is definitely not the end of a world. The so-called fate only points to He Jingtong's death. That is just the middle of a world, or in other words, it is just the end of He Jingtong's life."

The alien spirit He Jingtong exhaled deeply.

"After his death, a different spirit will be born. That is me and another me."

"Are you saying that He Jingtong, the protagonist of the comic book "Alien", knew that you would be born after his death?" The person who listened to everything patiently frowned.

The alien He Jingtong shook his head: "He doesn't know, this is just like what is shown in the comics."

"My brain memory and everything I've experienced tell me that the comic book "Alien" has actually given too much information. What has not been given is that He Jingtong did not make any predictions at first. He just used the information given by the system to pretend to be a prophet and tried to save people with it."

"The real message is that he really touched the line of fate when he experienced death again and again, and only then did he have the real prophecy."

"Like I said earlier, prophecy is, in a way, a manifestation of a destiny that has already experienced everything."

"In one, or even several, displays, He Jingtong could see that the result of his death was the birth of a strange spirit."

“That me has no humanity at all.”

As if to remind himself of the danger, the alien He Jingtong said: "Aliens themselves are this kind of existence."

"For example, a child, a child who has not been educated and guided, can be so cruel as to tear off the fur of animals, dig out their eyeballs, and scald them with boiling water without restraint... In short, all cruelty is not cruelty in the cognition of that kind of existence."

"The spirits will destroy everything. In the prophecy, my existence will lead us to slide into an irreversible abyss in the future."

"He Jingtong's way of saving himself was to do everything he could to prevent his birth, and at the same time..."

The recorder asked again: "At the same time?"

"At the same time, He Jingtong also chose to facilitate my birth." The alien He Jingtong patiently explained the statement that the author Jing Ping said had many loopholes, but was subtle enough to be self-consistent and even gain the trust of others.

"But your statement is wrong and has obvious problems," the official pointed out. "If He Jingtong wanted to facilitate your birth, how could he not know about your existence?"

"My existence and my birth, in He Jingtong's cognition, are just a hypothesis, a preparation, a safety device that may not be able to be achieved in the future to ensure that the alien spirit cannot be prevented from being born."

"He Jingtong couldn't be sure whether I could really be born. The only thing he could do was not to feel resentment or let negative emotions affect him until the end of his life, so that he could bet on the existence of me, whom he defined as a miracle."

Even though they read the comics for information, everyone who talked to the Irei Kakei at this moment understood the cruelty of that world.

Even until his death, He Jingtong was still thinking about saving...

If you didn't know that "The Supernatural" was a real thing, everyone here would try their best to find loopholes in the supernatural scenes and all the statements.

You don’t even need to add the prefix if…

That is the real world.

"My birth was no different from other spirits at first. Even though I had the same memories, I couldn't understand the emotions from them, let alone why He Jingtong was looking forward to my birth."

"At that time, I thought I was the spirit, not the spirit He Jingtong."

"Confusion and chaos are a state that every newborn must go through. What really made me sober and even sorted out everything was the birth of aliens. They even blocked my consciousness and began to transform humans into aliens in large numbers."

"I have to state a premise here. Even though I was not born from He Jingtong's sin, I am still an alien spirit. I am an alien spirit that may be able to empathize with humans, but I am no longer a human being."

"I did not become the last line of defense against the alien spirit as He Jingtong wished. Instead, because of fighting him, I became one of the roots of the destruction of that world."

"Is that world destroyed?!"

This is truly terrifying intelligence and information.

Although what He Jingtong said was a bit confusing, the official staff are very clear that the core point of what He Jingtong said is still that comics do reflect his life, but they do not reflect all of it.

And there is an observer who has never been revealed...

"...Yes, it is destroyed."

"No, wait."

"If that world has been destroyed, what does it mean for you to come to our world?"

Almost instantly, the special police in black gear pointed their guns at the head of the alien He Jingtong.

"This is just an accident." The alien He Jingtong said, "Even if the world is destroyed, I have the ability of time and space, so I can still go back to the past."

"He Jingtong gambled on my existence. He was not just betting on whether I could stop the alien spirits. He was betting that if I couldn't stop the alien spirits, then he would make sure that nothing had ever happened in the first place."

"So what you mean is that He Jingtong expects you to be born, and after you have the ability of time and space in the future, you choose to go back to the past and kill him at the source?"

"……yes."

"He wanted me to let him die before Fu Zexun conducted experiments on him. By that time, he would have saved many people who should be saved. And at that time, even if he died, it wouldn't matter."

…

Silence, dead silence.

"Before I came to this world, I didn't want to go back in time and kill him as He Jingtong wished."

"I still can't understand it. Those memories are like movie scenes. I can't feel the emotions."

“So I chose to gaze into time, trying to find the original source from the long river of time, that is, the first alien spirit in the world.”

"If there were no spirits in that world, just like your world, then He Jingtong, many people who were affected by the existence of spiritual masters and spirits wouldn't have to go through all that."

"But obviously, I failed. Both I and the spirits were observing time at the same time."

The recorder who was recording the entire process drew a circle on the manuscript paper with the tip of his pen. He pointed at the circle and said, "You said not long ago that you and the spirits are not really enemies."

"What does this mean?"

"And what does an observer mean to you..."

"I am a spirit, but I am not born of sin. I am a spirit that has completely abandoned human rationality, morality and emotions. The spirits and I were both born from He Jingtong. To a certain extent, we are one, but this is only to a certain extent. If we want to be truly one, the best way is to choose fusion."

"I will use all the remaining rationality and morality in me to limit all the unconventional cruelty of the spirits."

"And, using He Jingtong's obsession that has never disappeared in his short half-life, to carry out the so-called act of salvation. But He Jingtong saved his companions, and I, a non-human, want to save him."

“——That’s all.”

The spirit He Jingtong said a lot, but he did not forget the real point he needed to explain: "As for the observer, perhaps, the existence from the fourth dimension is the comic book author who released comics into this world."

"This is just my guess. Whether it is true or not depends on your judgment."

"Of course, whether I am dangerous to this world is still up to you to judge, but before I really show danger, I still hope you don't point your weapons at me."

"I don't want to stay in this world for a long time, and I don't have any need for it. I want to go back and try to save He Jingtong, rather than letting that world lose me and leaving behind only a spirit whose actions cannot be logically judged."

This grand lie, a story that the author Jing considered to be tragic, was put on hold at this moment.

Everything else needs to be thought about by three-dimensional people.

But all those statements that seem to have a beginning but no consequences, or consequences but no middle, will point to the same message when summarized.

——The observer’s observation effect can affect the world itself.

"If one day, an observer appears in our world, and he also carries information about another fate line that will destroy our world, will our world follow that fate line and head straight for a future destined for destruction?"

"Before that, there is another question to consider—"

"What?"

"The author Jing, whose identity could not be verified, sent new information to the comic company.

"He brought up the topic of the movie version of "Oddity" -

"What the hell...!

"The explanation given by the spirit He Jingtong is already very clear. It is a special existence from the fourth dimension that can see fate, influence fate, and even use itself as an anchor to imprison the fate of the third dimension. That is - the observer.

“…Is this a horror story?

“How would I know the answer?

"However, the danger rating of the alien He Jingtong can be lowered again.

"He will definitely not harm anyone, no matter what the medical report indicates, or what he has revealed on his own initiative. All of this means that he hopes we will not stop him, and even provide him with some help to return to his own world...

"It's just that I feel that, whether it's our world or Psych, the level of scientific development is not enough to directly study time and space...

"That is to say, it still depends on his own efforts.

…

…

A day and a night passed, and Xu Yihua's vacation was over. When she washed up and was about to go downstairs to buy breakfast, the doorbell rang the moment she turned the doorknob.

Xu Yihua stared out the door with eyes wide open.

Standing outside the door was the figure of the alien He Jingtong and an official holding a thick stack of notes.

After handing the heavy document to Xu Yihua, the other party said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Xu, I didn't have time to inform you in advance of my visit.

"But I think you don't care about these, but want to know why he came back...

"The conclusion is simple. He has been determined to be non-dangerous and can continue to live with you. As for why he is not being taken in by the government, I believe you will understand after reading these records. !
