Chapter 1293 What a Father Should Do
"I am indeed just an ordinary person." Zhang's father said expressionlessly, "If you are looking for the murderer of Sluder, then you are obviously looking for the wrong person."
"Relax, I'm not here to cause trouble." The old man watched the two colored balls go into the hole, changed directions, and leaned down again, "And I know that what happened at Copenhagen International Airport was not your fault, because this You haven’t been away from Ireland for a while, right?”
"Are you spying on me?" Father Zhang's face darkened, "We had an agreement when we separated. You promised not to disturb us again."
"I remember my original words...if that child is not in danger, I will not show up again." The old man swung again and knocked a black ball into the bag. "I have kept my oath, these ten I haven’t bothered you and your wife again in eight years, but as I said before, maybe I underestimated you from the beginning. If I had known you better, I probably wouldn’t have made such a promise.
"You shouldn't have come back." Father Zhang said solemnly.
"No, on the contrary, it should be said that it's good that I'm back, otherwise you would have been in big trouble." The old man put away his cue, looked at Zhang's father, and sighed, "To be honest, I didn't expect you to go up. In such a way, I thought you were one of the few people who really understand us. You will neither worship us too much nor be completely dismissive of us. You and your wife are like two bystanders. You know our History, understand where we come from... so why not continue to watch and get involved yourself, no one should know better than you how dangerous this is."
"I do not understand what you are saying."
"This kind of bullet... was invented by you, right?" The old man finally stopped playing riddles and pointed at the bullet casing on the table. "I want to apologize here. My people started staring at you and me four months ago. Your wife, I originally wanted to know if your attitude towards Zhang Heng has changed. After all, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, and humans are a species that can easily change their minds. But I accidentally discovered You are secretly communicating with a group of people without telling your wife."
"You are very careful. You never make phone calls, only send emails, so you don't leave your own voice, and you don't use your own computer, tablet or mobile phone. You go to the Internet cafe every time, and you often change places, even You didn't hesitate to drive for an hour to the next city, and you used a temporary email address that was only valid for 24 hours, so my people couldn't find out who you were communicating with, and this matter also aroused my curiosity. .”
"My responsibility as a husband requires me to hide this relationship." Zhang's father said seriously.
The old man was amused by him, "It's useless even if you make a fool of yourself. Don't forget who I am. I can't change the past. But after you leave the Internet cafe, it's okay to go back half an hour and take a sneak peek." Yes, besides, do you want to make a bet?"
"What bet?"
"I bet the magazine of the gun behind you is also filled with the same kind of bullets." The old man put the billiard cue on the ground and said leisurely, "What a pity. We had such a good chat before. I thought we would become friends. On."
"Friend? I will never forget that you forced us to enter that city under the ice."
"Then you also saved the world, didn't you? You know very well how bad things would have become if the owner of the city under the ice came out. If I hadn't organized that scientific expedition, the entire world might have been destroyed by now. Shrouded in fear, and later on when you offered to adopt the child, I agreed and gave him a talisman to help him block contact with the owner of the city under the ice. I did almost everything I could." The old man spread his hands.
"That's the problem. From what I know about you, Chronos would never be so kind for no reason."
"So ten years ago you began to search all over the world to contact those who hate the gods for various reasons, bring them together, and at the same time consciously guide them to help them find ways to compete with the gods as mortals, and finally Made this god-killing bullet for these extremists?" The old man said as he picked up the bullet casing from the edge of the table again.
"They are not extremists, they just have relatives or friends who died in the hands of the gods. Most of them are not even the targets of those gods. For example, there was a captain who took his brother and son out to sea for fishing, and met Bose. He was in a bad mood that winter and set off a forty-meter-high wave on the sea. Eventually, his son and brother died in the shipwreck. He has been living in despair and pain for so many years because no one believed in him. If so, I just think that he is an hallucination caused by excessive grief, and he also thinks that he will never be able to take revenge."
"Then you gave them hope and hatred, which is the best driving force. I admit that some of us are really rough in doing things, but these bad habits are also given to us by you humans, because you think our image will be more full. Flesh and blood is more similar to you, and is more conducive to the spread of those stories." The old man put his palms on the club, "Dramatic, most of us also hate this word, this is like a certain A curse.
"And don't flaunt yourself as being so righteous. Others may not know it, but I know your true purpose of doing this, which is not to avenge those extremists. You must have already figured it out in your heart. Sooner or later, Zhang Heng's true identity will be leaked out. It is not difficult to guess how the gods will react on that day. Killing him is the easiest way to solve the problem. You know that this child will become the enemy of all the gods one day in the future. , so you have already started thinking of ways as early as ten years ago.
"If the gods want to kill him, then kill them all. If I hadn't peeked at your email, I wouldn't have believed that an ordinary person who seemed very easy-going and had a good temper according to his friends could be so crazy and crazy. Arrogant ideas come.”
"I just did what a father should do." Father Zhang said calmly.
"Even if this decision will destroy the entire world? Not only us gods, but also other humans, you should understand that letting Zhang Heng live means that the owner of the city under the ice may escape... Interesting, although his body There is some of your blood flowing in him, but after all, he was not born from you and your wife, is it necessary to do this?" the old man asked curiously.
