Chapter 3194 The only Clue (10 Million Words, Achieved!)

"What!"

Li Yao almost spit out his mouth full of scallion fried buns, he wanted to grab Zhang Daniu's neck and ask, "What's the situation, you know this 'Ark'? Tell me, what's the specific situation!"

"that is--"

Zhang Daniu glanced at Li Yao's cell phone again. At this time, the sister of "Dream Traveler" sent a new message, which was a link to a website. When he clicked on it, his face became paler, "Yes, no Wrong, this is the 'Ark'. A few days ago, didn't we have an author group, some authors often chatted in it, bragging and discussing ideas, and then a stranger found me in the group, claiming to be this' The staff of the Ark Psychological Research Center are conducting a questionnaire survey on the life and psychological state of freelancers in our country, and they can also provide free psychological consultation. I will provide some basic information, including my contact information and The address is filled in everything, by the way, and my neurasthenia and sleepwalking, of course, I didn’t say that I would code words so mysteriously when sleepwalking—I’m not sure about this either.”

"You, how can you disclose such important information!"

Li Yao couldn't wait to slap the table, "You don't even know who the other party is, whether he is a liar or has malicious intentions. How could you tell him such important things as contact information and address!"

"I didn't know that at the time, even if you are a liar, what can you lie to me?"

Zhang Daniu said separately, "The staff member is a girl who just graduated from university. It is not easy to find a job. This questionnaire survey is counted in her job assessment. If she does not meet the standards, she will be fired. I heard from her. Poor, I thought there was no need to be so unreasonable, you must always support the legitimate work of young women, besides, she also promised to send me small gifts, and keep in touch!"

Li Yao took a deep breath and had nothing to say.

"No, nothing really happened, right?"

Zhang Daniu said, "At that time, she also told me that their institution does not study serious mental illnesses, but only intervenes in the psychological problems and sub-health states that modern people often have, especially freelancers like us. , often under a lot of pressure and even social criticism, so, in case of psychological deviation, you must not hide your illness from the doctor, and contact her as soon as possible—I think it makes sense!"

"Okay, stop talking, let me think about it, think about it carefully."

Li Yao closed his eyes and rubbed the center of his eyebrows and the bridge of his nose.

"Think, have you figured it out?"

Half a minute later, Zhang Daniu asked cautiously.

"Um."

Li Yao suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were filled with unstoppable light, and he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Niu, I'm still a little hungry, can we get 20 more buns and 20 dumplings each, no, 30, no, just put Is this pot all round?"

Zhang Daniu: "..."

Li Yao: "Look, I really have superpowers. If I didn't have superpowers, would I be able to eat so much in one sitting?"

Zhang Daniu: "I believe, I believe you have superpowers, isn't it okay? But Teacher Niu is really out of money, I won't lie to you, I lie to you as a puppy!"

Li Yao: "That's not right, you clearly promised to invite 'Little Rabbit in the Star Sea' to eat 'Heyin Cuisine' last night. I checked on the Internet, and the most basic set meal over there costs four to five hundred per person, two people Add up another wine, add a few dishes, etc., without 13,500, you can’t get it! The bone casserole we ate yesterday was 280 bills, which means that you still have at least 1,000 yuan in your pocket. I have calculated the cost, enough for me to eat and recover to a strong state, and then I will really tear the dumbbells for you to see!"

Zhang Daniu: "..."

Li Yao: "Hey, Mr. Niu, please don't leave. What do you mean by leaving like this? Running away won't solve the problem. Now I can be sure that this 'Ark' is after you! You can tell me to get out, but Can you really tell the staff of the 'Ark' to get out? Even, are you sure that the girl doing the survey is really a girl, not a muscular man with a full beard and a palm wide to protect his heart?

"You really don't want to see me, I'm leaving now, really, but in the middle of the night tonight, ten or eight strong men from 'Ark' sneak into your house, don't call for help, call me Can't hear it either."

Zhang Daniu stopped abruptly, and when he turned his head, there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Who the fuck did I provoke!"

The author cried out in grief and indignation.

In the end, instead of buying fried buns and fried dumplings, they ran to the nearby steamed bun shop and bought several hundred yuan of Gaozhuang steamed buns, which had no stuffing, pure flour, and were as hard as lumps of stone lumps.

Looking at the surprised eyes of the proprietress, Li Yao explained that they were on the construction site next door.

Energy-rich sports drinks were also expensive, Zhang Daniu was reluctant to buy them, but with a gloomy face, he bought five large bags of sugar and two large bottles of mineral water in the small supermarket and handed them to Li Yao.

Back home, watching Li Yao mix five packs of sugar in water, and eat thirty or fifty Gaozhuang steamed buns in one go without even burping, Zhang Daniu lamented, realizing that he was really messed up this time. Something's up.

"Now, shouldn't you believe it?"

Holding his half full stomach, Li Yao said, "'Dream Traveler' predicted the tragic death of the fantasy creator, and was sent to the 'Ark' for treatment, and this 'Ark' was still active in your author group some time ago— — If you think that this is all a coincidence, then your IQ is too sorry for the series of conspiracies and tricks in "Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation".

"So, you are the one who should face the reality. The reality is that you are being targeted. The other party knows your identity and address very well. It seems that the other party has unimaginably huge resources. Of course you can escape. But where can he escape and how long can he escape? Will there be a series of accidents on the way to escape, just like the creators of "Blood and Sand", "Forcible Colony Hunter" and "Star Ring World"?

"Understood, your only way out is to cooperate with me, we will take the initiative to find the truth together!"

Facing Li Yao's invitation, Zhang Daniu was silent for a long time, and said, "I was thinking, if I was really found by the 'Ark' people, what would they do to me?"

"You have also written about similar organizations in your novels. What do you think of them?"

Li Yao spread his hands and said, "The bottom line is three or five courses of electrotherapy, right?"

Zhang Daniu shuddered and stopped talking.

"It seems that you already understand your situation. Of course, my situation is by no means much better than yours. Now the two of us are grasshoppers on the same rope. If we don't work together, we will really be finished."

Li Yao said, "I need your help. First of all, tell me more about this 'Ark', as well as the questionnaire survey at that time. Do you have the manuscript?"

Zhang Daniu turned on the computer and found the electronic version of the questionnaire.

Li Yao took a quick glance and found that they were all common, innocuous questions. It seemed that the other party's purpose was to deceive the author's contact information and address, paving the way for the next contact.

There is also a link on the last page of the questionnaire, which is the official website of the other party, which is the same as the link sent by "Dream Traveler"'s sister just now.

Entering the official website, the first thing that catches the eye is the abstract icon of a big ship with wings, which seems to be the symbol of this organization.

Of course Li Yao has heard of the word "Ark", which means the last refuge when the world is destroyed. Whenever an ark appears, it means that a catastrophe that will destroy the world is coming.

After reading it carefully, I realized that this "Ark" is not just a center for psychological research and treatment of mental illness. It is actually a foundation with worldwide influence. The "Ark Foundation" has received countless mysterious funds and The support of the consortium specializes in the study of life sciences, the mysteries of the brain, genetics and neurology, etc., and its purpose is to explore the mysteries of life and even the soul, and constantly break through the limits of human beings—at least, that's what the official website says.

"I asked several friends who wrote books, and they also received similar questionnaires. Some of them even investigated the 'Ark Foundation', and there was no problem."

Zhang Daniu said, "This is really an international charitable organization. It has good cooperative relations with psychological associations, brain surgery hospitals, and neurological research organizations in many countries. It has branches in many developing countries and even war-torn countries. The ministry pays attention to the spiritual and mental health of the local people, and even unearthed many "gifted children" with extremely high IQs from war-torn countries. If it weren't for the Ark Foundation, these gifted children would definitely be buried."

"Yeah?"

Li Yao didn't believe a single word.

After searching the official website again and again, he couldn't find the general idea. After thinking about it for a long time, he could only bite the bullet and call the sister of "Dream Traveler".

He had a vague feeling that Dream Traveler's younger sister's attitude was not so firm - if she really believed that her brother was a lunatic, and Li Yao was also a lunatic, she didn't have to take the initiative to send a message, just ignore it.

Since she sent two messages in a row and also sent the official website of the "Ark Foundation", could it be that she is not sure?

This time, the call was connected quickly.

The fire of hope in Li Yao's heart became more and more intense, and he hurriedly said: "Hello miss, I have read all the links you sent just now, and I have read them carefully, but I still firmly believe that your brother is not crazy , but encountered some things that cannot be explained by common sense, can you give me a chance, and give your brother a chance, let us have a good chat? Really, schizophrenia is a very serious mental illness, once diagnosed , it is almost impossible to recover for a lifetime, do you want your brother to be locked up in a mental hospital for the rest of his life?"

There was silence on the other side for a while, and there was a faint sound of someone taking a deep breath, and then, the girl said, "What exactly do you want to know?"
