The palm-sized Huo Li sat on the mini bed and looked at the black-haired boy blankly: "You can't know this... You weren't born yet at that time..."
The black-haired boy: "The kitten's prophecy."
Huo Li: "You already know it?!"
The black-haired boy: "To be precise, it's not a prophecy in text form, This kind of prophecy cannot be changed, just like when the little cat predicted that 'Happy Planet will be completely destroyed at 11:00 am on August 4, 12036.' The fate of Happy Planet has become a foregone conclusion. No matter what efforts are made, the last infected person on Happy Planet will be completely replaced by the parasite at that moment. "
Huo Li was even more shocked: "Xiaoyi, before you went to explore Happy Planet, you knew that no matter how you saved the world, this planet would definitely be destroyed?" "
The black-haired boy: "No, I was still trying hard to find a way to change the fate of the planet, because I was skeptical about the accuracy of the little cat's prophecy at that time. Until I realized that Happy Planet was really destroyed, I blamed myself and was depressed for 5 seconds, Then I thought: Since the prophecy is like this, even if I was wise and brave enough to find all the humans whose parasites have not yet broken out of their bodies in three days, they would definitely die at that moment due to inexplicable reasons such as heart disease, pulmonary embolism, car accidents or food poisoning. So since the little cat has predicted it, even if I eat and drink on the Happy Planet for those three days, it will not affect the ending. So I accepted the destruction of the Happy Planet and the truth of the little cat's prophecy with peace of mind. This is probably the fatalism of mankind. "
Huo Li: "..." Why do I feel like a positive and good alien has been corrupted by the decadent music of humans?
The black-haired boy continued, "As for the picture that flashed in the kitten's vision, it was completely different. The picture only predicted a possibility of the future. If the kitten tells others about the future picture it foresaw, or tries its best to change it, the future will develop in a different way, but often this way will be worse than what was predicted before. And three days before I was bound to 2d14, that is, before I escaped from the Welland Space Base and killed all the experimenters on it, you were sent by the main system to the polluted planet as an 'executioner' on standby at any time."
The three words 'executioner' made Huo Li even paler. He explained anxiously, "Xiaoyi, I really didn't know the main system's intention at the time."
The black-haired boy: "So what, If you saw an alien slaughtering the entire planet without knowing it, would you kill it immediately? "
Huo Li hesitated for a long time, avoided the boy's gaze and said frankly: "Yes, I will kill it."
Black-haired boy: "What are you blaming yourself for?"
Mini Huo Li, who was originally waiting for the boy's verdict on him, was a little confused: "Huh?"
Black-haired boy: "If it were me, I would kill it without hesitation. Oh no, In fact, I am more extreme than you. As long as I find an alien, I will kill it immediately, no matter whether it is destroying the world or not! "
The young man paused and touched Huo Li's hair with his fingers: "So you have nothing to blame yourself for, you will just make the same choice as me. You are going to kill an alien that is destroying the world, and that will definitely not be me."
Huo Li sat on the mini wooden bed in a daze. He felt like he had just taken a roller coaster ride. When he was about to reach hell, he unexpectedly came to heaven! The knot that had been lingering in the depths of his consciousness was finally untied. From now on, he would no longer have to worry about this deception, afraid that the young man would not be able to accept the truth after learning it one day.
The black-haired boy looked at Huo Li's silly look and thought he was so cute! The boy deliberately leaned towards the mini bed, and the mattress on the bed was pressed down. Huo Li, who was sitting on the small wooden bed, suddenly lost his balance and flipped the bed over. He fell on the cotton mattress that was tilted like a mountain and rolled several times before he stopped and stood up dizzy.
The young man simply lay on his side on the pillow, gently picked up Huo Li who was swaying on the mattress, put him beside the pillow, then touched his shoulder with his finger and said: "Hey! Wake up, I haven't told you the shocking secret between you, the main system and the kitten! That is: the kitten "saw" some scenes about the future when I was still imprisoned in the Welland Laboratory, including the scene of me slaughtering the Welland Space Station which has already happened, and at the same time, there is something even more tragic: I am using black silk to slaughter a certain unlucky planet, right?"
The little Huo Li, who was sitting on the pillow, had a look of astonishment in his eyes and nodded.
Black-haired boy: "But according to the nature of the kitten's supernatural powers, if she tells others about this and takes strong precautions against it, things will develop in a worse direction. The kitten doesn't dare to bet on what is worse than the alien slaughtering the world! But she can't let things develop when she knows that an alien is going to 'destroy the planet', so she told the main system about it.
According to the main system's analysis: If the kitten makes this matter public, then all the forces in the world will hunt down this alien, which will make the future worse. So the main system can only take this roundabout way of semi-surveillance, and never kill me before I do evil, and let me do it. A 'dangerous person destined to destroy the world' was roaming around various planets with a stupid system whose IQ was deliberately lowered. At the same time, with the transmission of 2d14's real-time signal, the main system got to know me better and better. At first, it suspected that I was a cunning alien in disguise. But as time went by, it felt more and more that I would never be an enemy of humans, but the kitten's prediction that I would inevitably destroy the world has always troubled it.
When the Interstellar Alliance put pressure on the main system to hand over the alien, the main system was not misled by the prophecy after all, but abandoned the images in the prophecy and made judgments based on what it saw and heard, so it protected the alien under tremendous pressure. I am this alien. I have to say it really made a very correct judgment. Although the main system was also very nervous about this, when the kitten predicted the destruction of the Happy Planet, the main system connected the causes and consequences, and it was at this time that I really gained its trust. Then the main system arranged a fake identity for me and sent me to "investigate the truth", all to ensure that the scene of "destruction of the world" in my prophecy would happen smoothly. "
Huo Li nodded with lingering fear: "If the main system really affects its judgment because of the prophecy and wants to kill you for no reason..."
The black-haired boy: "I may be completely disappointed with mankind and choose I will choose to be an alien and attach the black silk powder to the pedestrians traveling between the stars. After three months of silent transmission, it will explode on hundreds of millions of planets at the same time. In this way, even you cannot control my body across planets, and the human race will be completely extinct within a few days. And you can only choose one planet in the universe to protect, and the people on it will be the only survivors in the world. If I hate humans more than my own kind, I can even let each black spore regard humans as their mother and breed billions of different offspring... Even the most powerful mental power cannot control tiny cells, so even you cannot escape this massacre."
Mini Huo Li saw the coldness in the black-haired boy's eyes and subconsciously shrank back to his small wooden bed: "Xiaoyi, but none of this will happen, right? The prophetic picture that the little cat saw was actually the scene of you killing the parasitic beast when you were saving the world. Prophecy is sometimes really a harmful thing. The consequences of the misunderstanding it causes people are far worse than its warning function!"
Black-haired boy: "How do you know that the kitten didn't see the scene of me slaughtering real humans? After all, she can't tell the difference just by looking at the picture, right? She saw the future. As for whether I slaughtered humans or parasites, it doesn't depend on me, but on the choices of the main system, the kitten and you."
The black-haired boy watched Huo Li subconsciously wrap his Q version of himself with a hand-silk-sized quilt, and then sit on the small bed and say seriously:
"Yes! Xiaoyi, you are less than 4 years old. If something bad happens, it is not your fault. It is because we adults failed to guide you correctly. Even if you have malice towards humans in your heart, it is because the adults hunt you down and don't trust you, and fail to set a good example for you. You are just a child."
"Pfft! Hahahahahaha!" The boy couldn't hold back any more. The stern expression he had maintained for a while suddenly broke. He laughed breathlessly while holding the quilt. "Huo Li, you were so funny just now! Such a small and cute thing thinks of itself as an adult, and is still discussing my education seriously. Am I really a child? Hahaha!"
Mini Huo Li's face was full of black lines: Aren't you a child? Then why did you turn me into a figurine and play with me as a doll?
The next morning, mini Huo Li, who had been awake all night on his small wooden bed, thought all night with his brain smaller than a walnut, and then realized that something seemed to be wrong.
Mini Huo Li rolled down the small wooden bed and climbed up the pillow with his short legs. He walked to the ear of the sleeping boy with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He was about to shout, but was afraid of waking the boy up, so he stood on the pillow and looked at the black-haired boy's delicate profile and waited quietly. 20 minutes later, when the boy woke up, Huo Li was counting Xiao Yi's long eyelashes one by one. Then the boy sat up with his eyes closed. The pillow shook, and it seemed to Huo Li that a big earthquake had occurred.
The black-haired boy looked down at Huo Li, who had dropped his pillow with a grunt, and asked dazedly, "Eh? Why don't you sleep on your own little wooden bed, but climb onto my pillow? Aren't you afraid that I'll accidentally kill you when I turn over?"
Huo Li: "Xiaoyi, were you trying to scare me last night? Even if the main system mistakenly launched a hunt for you, you wouldn't go to the end of the world, I know you."
The black-haired boy yawned and lazily replied, "That's not necessarily true, maybe I'm just in a bad mood."
Huo Li was still trying to state the conclusion he had come to after thinking about it all night: "The scene predicted by the kitten may not be will happen, especially after she makes the prophecy public, that future will no longer exist. The outcome of things will indeed develop in a bad direction: you are no longer on the side of the Savior Alliance, the scene of the "destruction" of the Happy Planet will not happen, and humans may be completely occupied by parasitic beasts after losing you as an ally. This is the correct interpretation of the two results of the kitten's prophecy. "
Seeing that Xiao Huo Li looked serious, the black-haired boy just grabbed him and put him in his palm and said, "As long as you are happy, come on, let's go wash our faces, and don't use toothpaste as facial cleanser this time." How can I answer you a question that even I am not sure about?
Little Huo Li was not happy with the black-haired boy's change of topic. He jumped in the boy's hands to attract Xiao Yi's attention: "Xiao Yi, it only took you 4 minutes to figure out that the polluted planet was a trap. If you wanted to destroy the world at that time, you could have sneaked into the interplanetary flight to spread black silk, and you wouldn't have been so diligent in absorbing garbage." The
black-haired boy brought the bouncing little Huo Li to the same level as his face and said helplessly: "The reason why I saw that this was a test in the 4th minute after arriving at the polluted world was because when I was in space before, my brain weighed only a few pounds. Can a brain that weighs only a few kilograms be called a brain? At that time, my IQ was basically zero, and of course I couldn't tell that 2d14 was a stupid spy sent here to confuse me. But as soon as I arrived in the polluted world, my brain capacity began to recover rapidly. After 4 minutes, the weight of my brain finally reached more than one ton. Only then could I think normally, understand? For example, your current brain capacity... Huo Li, have you found that you have been particularly stupid these days! "Huo Li
felt that his knee was hit by an arrow, and decided to wash his face obediently and no longer use his brain as big as a date kernel to think about any problems.
Half an hour later, everyone came out of their cubicles one after another. Because everyone bought the first-level all-system superpower gift pack from the system mall, everyone just let out a little water in their rooms to wash in the morning. Now everyone is ready to start a new day's task.
Alena took out her own holographic projection and showed all kinds of strange animals and plants. She said to everyone: "This is the chart of mutant animals and plants on the nuclear contaminated planet that we have summarized in the past few months. Now we have traveled through one-seventh of the land on the planet and summarized 144 mutant animals and plants that are threatening to humans. Today we will conduct a further survey of this city." The black-
haired boy asked in confusion: "Survey? Doesn't it mean to destroy it?"
"Eliminate?" Britney said as if she heard something funny. "It would take more than a month for just a few of us to eliminate the mutant species in a large city, and this planet has at least several thousand large and medium-sized cities and countless small towns. And as long as the radiation sources that have permeated the entire planet are not eliminated, new species will still mutate, and humans will still not be able to survive on the surface."
"That's why we suspect that the main system sent us here to exile us! The custom for a planet like this after a nuclear war is to send a starship to evacuate all the survivors on it, so there is no need to save the world." Liu Mo continued. The
black-haired boy thought secretly: Of course it is necessary. If you don't come, who will cover my system signal?
Liu Mo finished speaking, and released a white halo that enveloped the whole body to each person in turn, while complaining: "So we are completely imprisoned here by the main system! Sister-in-law, um... Xiaoyi, you should also do a purification. It can at least maintain the radiation protection ability for 6 hours. Don't you need it? Sister-in-law, now that the boss is not around, you have to save your points. A bottle of purification potion costs 10,000 points!"
The black-haired boy: "Really, you don't have to thank me. Also, call me Xiao Yi. "
Liu Mo: "Uh..."
Alena had just glared at Liu Mo for his blunt remarks, and was slightly satisfied when she saw that he finally gave in, and said to everyone: "Okay, let's act quickly before the purification blessing disappears!" So
the group climbed out of the manhole cover and came to the streets of the dead city, which were almost pitch black in the early morning. The light of each person's powerful flashlight could only penetrate a few meters, and then was completely blocked by the thick black fog. The surroundings were
terribly silent, and the few people could only talk and chat to barely resist the depressing atmosphere.
Amidst the efforts to create a relaxing atmosphere and the discussion of interstellar attractions and interstellar food, the last tasker finally couldn't hold back and asked cautiously: "I wonder how the boss is doing now?"
Everyone suddenly became quiet, and no one answered for a while. The little bit of relaxation just created disappeared.
The tasker continued to speak: "We all know that the boss was wronged: first, he has nothing to do with 0193, and second, it is impossible for him to start a nuclear war!"
A somewhat depressed voice came from the front: "Everyone knows these two points, so what can we do!"
The black-haired boy thought silently: Human beings are so smart...
The tasker who was walking at the end mustered up his courage: "Let's go to the Interstellar Alliance together! Ask them to re-investigate and give the boss justice!"
The black-haired boy: "Puff! Cough cough cough!"
"What's wrong, Xiaoyi?" Britney asked concernedly. The boss's boyfriend couldn't make any mistakes under their noses.
The black-haired boy finally covered up his laughter with a cough: "Cough cough cough, it's okay, I just choked."
Alena's voice came from the front: "Have you forgotten the order that the boss gave us before he went to Happy Planet? No matter what happens, we can't act rashly! If the boss knew that we violated his order..."
In the dim light, several people shivered visibly.
Liu Mo: "No, no, no! I dare not! If the boss knows what I said to my sister-in-law, I will be dead, dead, not to mention disobeying orders again!" Liu Mo's voice was a little trembling, as if he was really afraid of Huo Li.
"Yes! Let's not act rashly," Britney's voice was no longer lively as before, but with a trace of lingering fear, "Have you forgotten how Lewis..."
For a while, the whole team was silent.
Only the black-haired boy asked curiously: "Who is Lewis? What happened to him?"
Britney caught up from behind, tugged at the boy's collar, and caused a 9.5-magnitude earthquake to Huo Li's temporary residence (pocket). Then she said: "Xiaoyi, you'd better not ask, this matter is really too... We are afraid of scaring you."
Liu Mo in front also turned around and said: "Yes, don't ask sister-in-law, if the boss knew we told you this, he would definitely kill us!" The
black-haired boy secretly used his hand to stabilize the mini Huo Li who was just shaken by Britney, and coaxed him: "It doesn't matter, you tell me! I will never tell Huo Li."
The big mouth Liu Mo really couldn't resist the temptation . Huo looked back and looked around, then approached the black-haired boy and whispered, "Well... well, after hearing this, don't have any bad opinions about the boss. The boss is a good person, but he is more terrifying when he gets angry... And, don't tell the boss in the future!"
The boy gently pulled Huo Li in his pocket with his hand to stop him from shaking left and right: "Well! I will definitely not tell!"
