Chapter 273 The truth behind Xiao Jin’s assassination
Chapter 273 The truth behind Xiao Jin’s assassination
The people in the garden soon dispersed.
Wen Ren Jing and Xun Hui both believed what Wen Xishu said and felt fortunate that they did not step onto the 70th floor.
Wen Ren Jing was even happier than Xun Hui, because things in the Wen family seemed to have taken a turn for the better.
Evelyn headed towards the top floor, ready to look for Luo Feng.
As for Wen Xishu and Albert, they were in the school, preparing to find Xiao Jin that day.
Albert's original plan was to let Xiao Jin reveal his flaws within two or three days.
But now, after getting some news about Wen Xishu, he felt that he should be more efficient.
"I believe you. I think Lao Jin must be hiding something from me. I also believe what you said, that Lao Jin's heart is still in Longxia, and he even loves Longxia more than the bunker. But I believe even more that he will not harm us."
"No matter what, we'll know once we find Xiao Jin."
Wen Xishu and Albert were on their way to the principal's office, and would then arrange for Jabeur to issue an order for all teachers and students to assemble.
Wen Xishu asked:
"Principal, if Xiao Jin finds out that it was Mr. Jin who ordered him to assassinate me, you will..."
Albert glanced at Wen Xishu:
"Some things are hard to choose, but one is a pioneer of the last era, and the other is the hope of the future. I know how to choose. People cannot live in the past."
This statement was said so frankly that Wen Xishu was quite impressed.
To the extent that, he also hoped that everything was really as the old principal said, and it would be best not to find out that the assassination he encountered was related to Mr. Jin.
Albert said:
"If one day in the bunker...you and Lao Jin can only choose one, I know what to choose, but I will pray that there will not be such a choice."
Wen Xishu didn't know how to respond, and finally could only say:
"Thank you, Headmaster."
After thinking for a while, he asked again:
"How do you plan to find Xiao Jin?"
Albert said:
"His abilities are strange and unpredictable. The reason why we can't find him is because he can transform into anyone."
"But it's limited to the department area of Three Towers College. So he must be hiding in there."
"I originally thought of looking for him slowly, after all, he was in an emotionally unstable state."
"But I don't want to wait any longer. Next, I will expand my perception to the entire college, and I will ask all teachers and students to gather in the non-department area."
"The people from the Bunker Security Bureau will block all the school exits. I will give orders for them to guard every entrance and exit. Even if they see me, you, any colleagues or superiors coming out of the school, they are not allowed to leave."
"Next, I will sense his presence, find him, and subdue him."
Simple, the whole plan sounds extremely simple, but the difficulty lies in one place, that is perception.
However, Wen Xishu absolutely did not doubt the old principal's perception ability.
Wen Xishu remembered that the old principal once said that as long as he was in the bunker, no one could hurt him.
He absolutely believed it.
……
……
The whole operation unfolded quickly.
Wen Xishu is always with Albert.
With the help of Jabbar and the school spirit, all the teachers and students soon gathered on the playground of the school.
The process took only thirty minutes.
Afterwards, Wen Xishu contacted Liu Jinsen, who quickly arranged for the third team of the Bunker Security Bureau to come and guard the Santa Tower Academy.
Each entrance and exit is guarded by a five-man team armed to the teeth.
Judging from the situation, it's the same as counter-terrorism.
The entire bunker was in a mourning atmosphere at that moment. Suddenly this happened and no one knew what was going on.
But the bigger the event, the more people are willing to cooperate. After all, no one wants to be affected by some trouble.
After all preparations were in place, Albert's perception scanned the entire Three Towers Academy.
After a few breaths, he opened his eyes:
"found it."
"So fast?" Wen Xishu was a little surprised. He knew that Albert was strong, but he didn't know that Albert was so strong.
"Xiao Jin may be emotionally unstable... As a relative of Lao Jin, even if we are not related by blood, I don't want to push him into a desperate situation."
Albert knew that Xiao Jin must have some special meaning to Lao Jin. Maybe it was also related to the Longyin Plan.
He did not reject that plan. He felt that the bunker and Long Xia's deification did not conflict. After all, they were both for the purpose of allowing humans to return to their own land.
Albert was unwilling to hurt Xiao Jin unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Come with me, we'll take him down. He might be able to hurt you, but he won't succeed."
It feels so safe.
Wen Xishu still had to admit that climbing the Slaughter Tower was indeed necessary, especially to the level of Albert.
……
……
Department area.
In the corner of the library.
When Wen Xishu and Albert came to the library, even Wen Xishu could sense the familiar breath.
Yue Yun.
Yue Yun no longer had the coldness he once had, and he looked confused and dazed.
When Yue Yun sensed Wen Xishu approaching, he raised his head instantly.
That look was filled with confusion, struggle, and anger.
"die!"
Yue Yun moved.
He has amazing explosive power and incredible speed.
But if it were just that, let alone the fact that there was Albert behind Wen Xishu, even Wen Xishu would be able to react easily and perfectly deflect the attack.
Wen Xishu dodged easily.
"Xiao Jin, don't you recognize me?"
He also didn't want Xiao Jin to be an enemy, even though they had only spent a short time together.
But Xiao Jin once risked his life to save him.
Yue Yun seemed to realize that although he was fast, Wen Xishu was no match for an ordinary Luta person.
His figure changed immediately.
Luo Feng, one of the five elders, appeared in Wen Xishu's sight again.
This time, Luo Feng's suspicion was completely cleared.
The familiar Guanshou appeared, but both its momentum and power seemed stronger than before.
Kill with one blow!
This is Xiao Jin’s idea.
"Give it back to me! Go to hell!"
Wen Xishu saw the barrage at this moment.
[No! Don't do it! ]
【Give it back! Give it back! 】
The barrage distracted Wen Xishu a little, so that Xiao Jin, who had transformed into Luo Feng, had already reached Wen Xishu's chest with his piercing hand, as if it would pierce his heart in the next moment.
But this did not happen.
Because an old and strong hand gently pressed Xiao Jin.
The powerful hand suddenly lost all its strength and could not move forward at all.
Xiao Jin only felt infinite power. Compared with that hand, this attack that condensed the full strength of the Fifth Elder Luo Feng seemed insignificant.
“Grandpa…Grandpa Albert.”
Xiao Jin's face began to change. Half of it was Xiao Jin's original appearance, and the other half was still Luo Feng's appearance. It looked extremely strange.
At this moment, Albert was ready to subdue Xiao Jin with a knife.
But Xiao Jin seemed to have a surge of malice in his eyes again.
He changed in an instant, and the hand held by Albert lost many of its old wrinkles and became delicate.
Evelin’s appearance appeared in Albert’s eyes.
Then, a huge mental shock made Albert want to let go.
Wen Xishu was also shocked, and he felt as if everything had become irrelevant.
I am in a state of mind where I don't want to care about anything or pay attention to anything.
Even if Xiao Jin wanted to kill me, it didn't seem to be a big deal, so let him kill me.
There is nothing much to say about being alive, and it doesn’t matter if you die.
This huge negative impact also had an impact on Albert, but only a very minor one.
"Humph!"
Albert snorted coldly, his momentum was like a violent tsunami destroying the coast.
Xiao Jin felt dizzy, and Evelyn's form could not be maintained for a moment.
"She herself doesn't even dare to do that, you are really brave, kid."
There was no longer any mercy in Albert's eyes.
He felt that Xiao Jin seemed to be willing to do anything to kill Wen Xishu.
At this moment, his eyes were sharp, like a beast. No one had ever seen Albert like this, and no one dared to face Albert like this.
Xiao Jin was also very scared and terrified to the extreme.
But soon, he showed a ferocious look again:
"give me back!"
Xun Hui's face replaced Evelin's face.
Albert was a little surprised. His spirit was about to be crushed by fear, but...
There was a strange force that allowed Xiao Jin to quickly rekindle his fighting spirit.
Xun Hui is naturally not as good as Luo Feng.
But Xun Hui has a special method.
The state of no self.
Albert just felt his hands were empty.
The original touch is gone.
Xiao Jin, who turned into Xun Hui, broke free from his restraints. After the state of selflessness was opened, he lost his target.
The next moment, Xiao Jin burst out with astonishing speed and rushed towards Wen Xishu.
But Wen Xishu was not panicked at all.
Because Albert is much faster than Xiao Jin.
First, a force pushed him away slightly, and then, Wen Xishu, who was unbalanced, saw Albert swinging his fist.
Wen Xishu was thinking: Could it be possible that the old principal can still hit Xiao Jin when he is in a state of selflessness?
The next scene confirmed his guess.
Wen Xishu was surprised to find that when Albert's fist landed on Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin, who was supposed to be in a state of nothingness, suddenly began to twist his body, as if he was hit by a huge force. He fell heavily to the ground and could not move.
Albert tried his best to restrain his punch, but Xiao Jin was still on the verge of death.
The battle is over.
Xiao Jin struggled and tried to climb towards the Wen Xi tree, but he had no strength left.
Soon after, he fainted.
Albert said:
"Arrange for someone to treat him. Take him to a place where the power of the three towers cannot be used, and interrogate him thoroughly."
Wen Xishu said:
"Actually... I just saw the barrage. I already know why Xiao Jin wants to kill me."
Albert remembered that the first time he saw Wen Xishu, Wen Xishu looked above his head.
At that time, he was in extreme joy. He wondered if Wen Xishu could see things that others could not see.
Albert asked:
"What? What did you know?"
When Xiao Jin imitated Luo Feng and tried to kill Wen Xishu with his hand, Wen Xishu had already been touched by the barrage of bullets released by Xiao Jin.
He already knew part of the memory through the scenes in the barrage.
He said:
"There is a will within Xiao Jin's body that longs for unification."
"Do you remember, according to what Mr. Jin said before, Xiao Jin seems to be very special and can simulate the twelve constellations..."
"Everything was normal before, but when Xiao Jin simulated Gemini, he became two people."
"I guess one is the kind-hearted Xiao Jin, and the other is the Xiao Jin with an evil personality."
"Mr. Jin originally defrauded Capricorn, and what he got back was the evil Little Jin."
"That's Xiao Jin we saw."
"And the other kind-hearted Xiao Jin has a very important thing called the Heart of Fusion."
"I don't know what this thing does yet, but maybe... one of its functions is fusion. For example, it allows a small financial unit that is divided into two parts to merge."
"Based on my experience in the Weird Tower, the Heart of Fusion seems to be able to solve a problem. That is, when multiple people merge, who is the master of the will of the merged body?"
"I don't know if you can understand what I mean. For example, if Senior Xun Hui and Senior Wen Ren Jing merged, after the fusion, would a new will be generated to dominate the body, or would Senior Xun Hui dominate the body? Or would Senior Wen Ren dominate the body?"
"The Fusion Heart, I guess it can solve this problem."
"The Fusion Heart was originally in the possession of the kind-hearted Xiao Jin, but for some reason, Xiao Jin gave the Fusion Heart to the three people in the Demon City."
"I also went to the Demon City during a trip and found the Heart of Fusion in a place called the Hall of Good People."
Albert understood:
"So Xiao Jin attacked you... because of the Fusion Heart? When he said give it back to me, did he mean that you stole his things?"
Wen Xishu sighed:
"Now it seems that there is a big gap between Xiao Jin's simulated Gemini and the real Gemini."
"I don't know why Xiao Jin is so special and has this ability, but every constellation he imitates may have problems. This ability is not stable yet."
"The real Gemini, the separated Gemini, trust each other."
"But the twins that Xiao Jin separated from seem to have some kind of problem, causing them to be hostile to each other."
"The Fusion Heart can determine the will and dominance, so the evil Xiao Jin, after sensing the existence of the Fusion Heart, immediately suppressed the kindness in his body and attacked me."
"He wants to obtain the Heart of Fusion, wants to become the master of will, wants to merge with another Xiao Jin, and control the merged body."
Albert was very surprised. On the one hand, he was surprised at the truth, and on the other hand, he was surprised at the amount of information Wen Xishu could obtain.
This kid is really a natural interrogator.
Wen Xishu said:
“I’m thinking that Mr. Jin keeps asking Evelyn to dilute Xiao Jin’s memory, trying to change Xiao Jin’s background… and turn Xiao Jin into a kind person…”
"Perhaps it is also hoped that Xiao Jin, after being integrated in the future, can also become a kind person."
Albert immediately asked:
"So Xiao Jin killing you... has nothing to do with Lao Jin? Right?"
Wen Xishu nodded:
"It doesn't matter. This all just happened in a certain period of time, which led to my misjudgment. But now... this problem has been resolved."
"The next thing to solve is how to dismantle Xiao Jin's evil, and find out what Xiao Jin is."
"Why can he imitate those constellations? The meaning of his existence, his existence itself...what is it all for."
Wen Xishu actually did not give up thinking of Mr. Jin as a "bad guy".
In his opinion, Liu Zhizai died in place of Mr. Jin, and then Xun Hui and Wen Renjing died on the 70th floor...
All of this can be blamed on Mr. Jin.
But he also tried to think from the principal's perspective: what if Mr. Jin wanted to have the best of both worlds?
It’s true that he loves Long Xia more, but what if he also loves the bunker?
Albert nodded:
"It has nothing to do with Lao Jin, which is good... Thank you. There are some choices I know how to make, but even if I know, it's too difficult to make that choice."
"Fortunately, I don't have to make a choice for now."
"It's just a puzzle between Lao Jin and Xiao Jin. Why do I feel like there are more puzzles the more I solve them?"
Wen Xishu said:
"When the truth comes close, there will be a process that makes everything seem tangled and confusing."
"But I believe that as long as I keep climbing the tower, I will be able to solve the puzzle."
Albert knew that Wen Xishu was going to start climbing the tower again.
……
……
Xiao Jin was taken away quickly.
Although Albert's punch was already being restrained, it still knocked Xiao Jin to the brink of death.
Wen Xishu did not ask how the old principal broke the state of selflessness with one punch.
He guessed that the principal's punch was probably similar to Sagittarius's archery, and contained a part of the law of cause and effect, meaning that once it was thrown, it would definitely hit the target.
Of course, these are all just guesses.
It seems that no matter how powerful a person like Albert is imagined to be, it is never too much.
Wen Xishu currently has another problem to solve.
"It's time for me to climb the tower, but unlike the Slaughter Tower, how can I... get seven death row prisoners to team up with me?"
Once the colorful feather pen is used, make sure at least seven of them die.
The best way is to arrange seven of the worst, conclusively guilty, and awaiting execution to be with him.
However, Guita currently does not have stable and effective team props.
Wen Xishu had a headache.
Of course, he could also gamble on his luck and bet that in the upcoming journey to the strange tower, he would definitely be assigned to a level with no less than seven people.
"It's a bit troublesome."
At this moment, Wen Xishu has returned to the office of Guita Academy.
The large gathering at Santa College not long ago made teachers and students speculate whether something big had happened in the school.
Wen Xishu doesn't care much about these public opinions.
His problem now is that he either doesn't use the seven-colored feathers, in which case he won't have to worry about the dilemma of the number of people falling below seven.
But it would be a pity not to use this complete Death Note.
This problem troubled Wen Xishu for a while.
But not long after, he suddenly had an idea and thought of a solution.
"Stupid, how could I forget such a useful thing!"
Wen Xishu was very excited when a solution to the problem of less than seven people in the copy suddenly came to his mind.
He didn't delay any longer and took out the login device.
A new round of tower climbing has begun.
