Rules of Delta: Starting with the Lost Dam

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Tao Tao's eyes.

"You know?"

She glanced at Ye Yan curiously.

Ye Yan shook his head and said frankly, "I don't know, I'm just guessing."

"I've encountered fake people."

After a moment of silence, Ye Yan slowly began to speak, telling Tao Tao about his previous encounter with Red Wolf and Mai Xiaowen.

"Although they acted like humans and fired guns, they couldn't speak, as if everything was pre-programmed."

After listening, Tao Tao frowned and shook her head.

"No, that's not a fake."

Her tone was firm.

"You killed a shadow, an operator's shadow before it devoured the player operator."

"The fake agents I encountered before could talk and disguise themselves, almost exactly like real operators."

"Is it Uluru?" Ye Yan asked tentatively.

Tao Tao nodded. "That's right."

"That's why we reacted so strongly when we saw those two Uluru."

She looked up at Ye Yan, her expression grave.

"Of those two Ulurus, one must be a fake, or even both of them may be fakes."

Tao Tao sighed softly, a hint of heaviness in her eyes.

"And your doctor, Feng, is also highly likely to be one."

At this point, Tao Tao paused, looking at Ye Yan with a serious expression in her eyes.

"so."

"What are you going to do?"

Hearing Tao Tao's question, Ye Yan paused for a moment before asking:

"So, you're going to kill 'Uncle'?"

Ye Yan found this question rather difficult to ask.

After all, "Uncle" was the second teammate he had met since entering this world.

Even if we haven't known each other for very long.

But Ye Yan also found it hard to accept.

Furthermore, he doesn't entirely believe the one-sided account of the person in front of him.

"Just because of your guess?" he asked, his gaze fixed intently on Tao Tao.

Upon hearing this, Tao Tao frowned and asked in return:

"You don't seem surprised?"

"You probably already suspected it!"

"Then why don't you just say it?"

Faced with Tao Tao's three questions, Ye Yan remained silent for a moment and did not answer directly.

He gave Tao Tao a deep look and replied in a cold tone:

"Don't forget."

"You can be a fake too. If I kill my teammate because of your assumptions, then next time, can you kill me because of your assumptions?"

Ye Yan looked at Tao Tao, his tone calm and rational.

"And how do you know if these rules are true or false?"

That's right.

From the very beginning.

Ye Yan's understanding of the fake people was limited to what Tao Tao told him.

No matter how eloquently Tao Tao speaks, it cannot prove the truth of her words.

Furthermore.

Ye Yan recalled the prop he had obtained earlier: a cell phone.

The rules that Dr. Na Feng described may not be true.

Therefore, Tao Tao's description of the pseudo-human characteristics may not necessarily be true.

This is a test.

Ye Yan's words were truly scathing.

If it were someone else, they probably would have gotten angry long ago.

However, Tao Tao wasn't angry; instead, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Very good."

This reaction completely baffled Ye Yan.

"That's great?"

Tao Tao nodded, and said very seriously and happily:

"That's right, I never wanted to publish this rule from the beginning."

Why?

Ye Yan was somewhat puzzled.

Tao Tao's reaction really puzzled him.

Tao Tao didn't answer directly, but looked at Ye Yan with a smile and asked in return:

"Didn't you guess that too?"

Ye Yan raised an eyebrow but did not speak.

Tao Tao chuckled softly.

"Is it because you know that you said those things to shut me up?"

"Given the need for manpower, rather than revealing that there are spies among us, causing suspicion and leading to the team's disintegration, it's better to remain silent."

"We'll talk about everything once we've breached the dam's industrial elevator evacuation point."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yan gave Tao Tao a deep look but remained silent.

Seeing this, Tao Tao gave a self-deprecating smile.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you afraid I'm a fake and trying to set you up?"

Ye Yan nodded and said frankly, "I'm afraid."

"..."

Tao Tao was speechless, rolled her eyes, and didn't say anything.

"If I were truly a fake, I wouldn't say so many things about proportions and fake people!"

"Besides, if I really wanted to kill you, I wouldn't waste so much breath. My escort is top-notch!"

"As long as they're there, I can safely evacuate no matter what kind of player I'm facing."

She turned her head to look at Ye Yan, her eyes lowered, her eyelashes drooping, her expression carrying a hint of loneliness.

Ultimately, all we want is to go home.

"These are the words we said when we killed the fake man."

At this point, Tao Tao paused, looked up at Ye Yan, and asked earnestly:

"What do you mean?"

Ye Yan looked at her, puzzled. "What exactly is a fake person?"

When Ye Yan mentioned the fake people, he thought of that family photo.

Behind the family photo, four densely packed black characters were written:

I want to go home.

"Those words."

"Were they all written by fakes?"

Ye Yan frowned and asked in a deep voice.

Tao Tao remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking.

"go home?"

"Which home are we going back to?"

At this point, Tao Tao subconsciously looked at Ye Yan.

She was the same as the other person.

They all came in from outside.

Ye Yan remained silent and did not speak.

"Should we return to our original world, or something else?"

When asked about their original world, Tao Tao and Ye Yan exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

If we could go back to our original world.

"Then, shouldn't the fakes be their enemies?"

Tao Tao's tone carried a hint of annoyance and helplessness.

But the other side launched the attack first, without even hesitating the moment they saw them.

If it weren't for Qingfeng and Qingshui's quick reactions, and the fact that they were wearing the highest-level armor (Level 4) and using Level 3 bullets, they would have almost been killed that time.

A fake.

They had no idea of ​​the true purpose of the imposters.

Why did they happen to discover those bizarre rules?

Why should those rules warn them against hypocrites?

Why would a fake person have their own thoughts, just like them?

even.

If you look closely, apart from being cold-blooded and cunning, the fake humans are no different from normal humans.

and also.

the most critical.

Why does the fake man want to go home?

Who wrote those rules?

These problems have been troubling Tao Tao.

pity.

She couldn't find a clue at all.

time is too short.

So short-sighted that they didn't even know what the hypocrites were really trying to express, and those hypocrites died at their hands.

After those fake people died, their bodies turned into a pool of black sewage.

The sewage also contained some white bone fragments.

Some teeth marks remained on those bone fragments.

Tao Tao felt a chill run down her spine after seeing this.

Were those broken bones from fake humans, or left behind by other humans who entered this place like them?

If it's the latter.

Then, that's a big problem.

Why? Because those rules constantly warn them to be wary of imposters.

and also.

What would happen if these fake people followed them back to their original world?

They were unaware of these things.

"have no idea."

Tao Tao shook her head and sighed.

"The time was far too short."

"The imposter was already dead before he could say anything."

At this point, Tao Tao looked at Ye Yan and said earnestly:

"The reason I contacted you is simply to warn you to be careful around Dr. Feng."

"After all, a fake person can't wear their fakeness on their face."

however.

Ye Yan did not answer Tao Tao's question, but instead frowned, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing this, Tao Tao didn't disturb them, but waited quietly.

for a long time.

Ye Yan looked up at Tao Tao and slowly spoke:

"You all go and prepare."

"We are preparing to shut down the power and evacuate at 5 o'clock."

Before they arrived, Said had already told them about the evacuation method and the dangers.

So Tao Tao agreed without hesitation.

"it is good."

Tao Tao nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

She was going to tell Qingfeng and Qingshui what Ye Yan had said.

of course.

She went there not just to talk about this.

There are other things too.

"Dr. Feng, what a hypocrite!"

Ye Yan raised his head, his eyes filled with melancholy, and gripped the gun tightly in his hand.

If he could, he really wouldn't want to kill his teammate.

"Hi!"

At that moment, Uluru, the "Bao family," walked towards Ye Yan, forcing a smile onto his rough, oval face, and said:

"I learned that from Said."

He patted his chest and assured him:

"Don't worry about this!"

"Our team will definitely do our best!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yan gave Bao Quan a deep look and nodded.

"Oh, yes."

At this point, Ye Yan looked up at Bao Quan and asked:

"Is there anything else you'd like to say?"

"..."

Bao Quan was taken aback, not expecting Ye Yan to ask such a question. He was silent for a moment before laughing to ease the awkwardness.

"Haha, you sound so young, I didn't expect you to have such sharp insight."

He praised Ye Yan.

This sentence made the strange look in Ye Yan's eyes disappear a lot.

Seeing this, Bao Quan breathed a sigh of relief and cautiously took a step forward, trying to get closer to the person.

Upon noticing Ye Yan's gun, they quickly distanced themselves, not daring to take another step forward.

He said softly:

"I've come to tell you a secret."

"What secret?" Ye Yan raised an eyebrow and asked.

"The escort team is not to be trusted!" Bao Quan said with a serious expression.

Ye Yan frowned but did not speak.

"They're hypocrites!"

"I saw them kill someone!"
