Chapter 20 A Precursor to Tragedy, a Secret Confrontation
A few days later, Bella learned the good news.
Wutong is dead.
This was indeed good news for her. Brother Wutong was finally out of the misery of the world. However, for some reason, Bella couldn't be happy. Not only was she unhappy, but she also strengthened her belief in annihilating all human beings.
She wanted to avenge Wutong.
Bella didn't believe what Fire Chaser said to the outside world. She thought Wutong was murdered.
The Fire Chaser Moth announced that Wutong had become the Tenth Herrscher who had no thoughts or emotions and only knew how to kill, and was later killed by Sakura.
Not only Bella, but many people who are familiar with Wutong don't believe this statement.
Wutong could not become the Herrscher.
For some people, the news of Wutong's death is also good news. This scourge is finally dead and they can finally sleep peacefully.
After Wutong died, these people felt that the air became fresher and the world became more beautiful.
But for others, this is bad news.
They could accept Wutong dying on the battlefield, in the hands of the Herrscher, and on the operating table... However, they couldn't accept Wutong dying so mysteriously.
They had the same idea as Bella, to investigate clearly and avenge Wutong.
Therefore, those who thought it was good news at first were not happy for a long time before they became restless again.
Birds of a feather flock together and people divide into groups. Those who are close to the sycamore tree may be even more troublesome than the sycamore tree.
They say the people who know you best are not your friends, but your enemies.
But Wutong was well hidden. Even if he died, he still tricked his enemies. As long as one of the top executives of Fire Chasing Moth knew Wutong's true character, he would never use such rhetoric to the outside world.
It is impossible for high-level people who can become Fire Chasers to have low IQs, but their intelligence is mostly reflected in the aspect of "self-interest", and they are very powerful when seeking personal or family interests, so they are still stupid.
If they were really smart, they wouldn't have made so many enemies and would even be regarded as enemies by Wutong.
Of course, not all of the top management of Fire Chasing Moth are such people. There are still nearly half of them who are really worried about the country and the people and wholeheartedly fight against Honkai. The relationship between these people and Wutong is not good, but they are still Not bad, at least not an enemy.
Unfortunately, most of the power in the hands of these people is not as great as that of the "idiots", because they do not put all their thoughts and energy into the struggle for power. Although they have the right to speak, they are still relatively weak. A weaker position.
Due to the proper handling of Wutong and others, the Tenth Herrscher has not disrupted the human race yet, but Wutong's death has disrupted the Fire Chaser Moth.
However, what everyone did not expect was that the first person to cause trouble was not Mei, Kevin or Mebius and other friends who were familiar with Wutong, but a person who was not very familiar with Wutong, Qianjie.
After Qianjie learned the news of Wutong's death, he went to the "deepest place". After coming out of the deepest place, he found Mebius. With the help of Mebius and the surveillance of Kevin, Qianjie Zed successfully integrated into the genes of the Honkai Beast "Feitian" and became a fusion warrior.
One day later, Qianjie, who became a fusion warrior, went directly to the headquarters of Fire Chaser Moth, vowing to kill all the top leaders of Fire Chaser Moth.
Although Qianjie's mind was not normal, he had a strong sense of "justice", and his adjutant Yin Moer had an accident not long ago, which made him feel particularly angry at Wutong's tragic end.
Qianjie's logical thinking is very simple. He doesn't know who the murderer is, and he doesn't want to know, but as long as all the suspects are killed, the real murderer will be dead.
Qianjie, who has extreme ideas, believes that they are all moths and should be buried with them.
The fusion warriors stationed at the Fire Chasing Moth headquarters almost failed to stop Qianjie. Fortunately, Kevin and Hua rushed over and worked together to "suppress" the frantic Qianjie.
Hua Gang awakened the super-mutable factor and became a fusion warrior, but her fighting ability is good.
During the "trouble" of Qianjie, Poison Chrysalis was disbanded, and a riot broke out during the disbandment. Mebius sent Sakura to suppress it.
The "top" of humanity is a mess.
Although it was Sakura who killed Wutong, no one cares about her at present, because she is just a "sword", and humans still need her "sword".
When the judge decides, he will only judge the prisoner, not the murder weapon. The murder weapon is evidence. Only after the case is completely over will the murder weapon be disposed of according to the specific circumstances.
Therefore, no one cares about Qianjie, because Qianjie is also a "knife", but he doesn't know it. As for who his "holder" is, the top management of Fire Chasing Moth has not investigated yet. clear.
However, even so, Qianjie was still imprisoned in the deepest place.
The different "ends" of Qianjie and Sakura also reflect the "energy" gap between the two sides who are secretly confronting each other.
In addition, Qianjie's behavior also had a profound impact. He made some people even more afraid of the fusion warriors.
Under the deliberate propaganda and guidance of these "cowards", today, not only ordinary people who don't know about fusion warriors are more afraid of fusion warriors and regard them as monsters, some scientific researchers are even afraid of fusion warriors as a group. psychology.
This also further contributed to the smooth occurrence of the "Restraint Tragedy" not long after, but of course, this is all a story later.
Human beings are good at "self-mutilation".
The sky is a hundred feet tall and the night is green, the autumn stars are sweeping away and the dawn frost is falling.
late at night,
In front of Wutong's grave.
Sakura placed a white lily in front of the tombstone next to her.
That is Klein's tomb, she is Wutong's neighbor.
There were no bones in either grave.
Wutong was not dead, and as for Klein, she left no bones.
"You're late." Sakura said suddenly.
At some point, Wutong appeared behind her, silently.
"Sorry, I've been too busy these days."
Sakura turned around, took out a USB flash drive from her pocket, and threw it to Wutong.
"I've got what you want. From now on, you and I will owe each other nothing."
"Thank you for your hard work. Don't be so cold. You and I are old acquaintances after all..."
Sakura interrupted: "Don't be too close. I'm not familiar with you. How long are you going to pretend to be dead? It's too chaotic now, and the Fire Chaser Moth can't stand the torment."
"Don't worry, it's easier to do things with dead people. Human beings have always had overt and covert struggles. You should know that. Otherwise, people like you wouldn't exist. Now it's just floating on the surface. Maybe this is a good thing. .”
As he said that, Wutong took out a pear from the environmentally friendly handbag he was carrying and threw it to Sakura: "Here, here's your reward."
"I won't eat it." Sakura threw the pear back again.
"That's such a pity. I used to raise a little white fox, and it liked to eat pears." Wutong paused and continued, "It's much cuter than you, and it especially likes to pester me. I masturbated it, but unfortunately, it died later. Oh, by the way, its name is Ling."
"choke!"
Sakura instantly pulled out the knife, pointed it at Wutong, and said coldly: "What do you mean?"
The name Ling touched Sakura's nerves. The person she cherished most was her sister.
As Sakura drew her sword, the surrounding temperature became colder, and the frost on the ground became heavier.
"Don't be nervous. I don't have any ill intentions. I won't do anything to Ling, and I won't threaten you with Ling. Well... I just want to remind you out of good intentions, Sakura, you don't want Ling to be watched by bad people, right? !”
Sakura's face softened slightly, and then turned ugly again: "You mean... they are monitoring Ling?"
"If you don't believe it, you can check it yourself."
"Have you been discovered down there?"
"That's not true. It's just that the cowardly fools are afraid of the 'weapons' they created because of their strong support. Sakura, our kind of 'weapons' are too dangerous and need to be restrained. s method."
Wutong stepped forward, inserted the pear in his hand on Sakura's blade, and said expressionlessly: "Sakura, by helping me, you are also helping yourself. Go back to confirm and consider whether you want to do me another favor. If you like, I will come here again tomorrow... Oh, by the way, my 'reward' is much richer than those stingy egoists."
After saying that, Wutong turned and left.
Sakura stood silent for a long time, then took off the pear from the knife and took a bite.
Although the pear was a bit cold, she did not refuse the pear this time.
