Chapter 12 Time Bomb

As a result, since then, Lucifer has not been able to talk to Sandalphin properly.
He needs to transfer and seal up Lucifer's legacy. Since it is a big guy, just carrying and preventing information leakage is enough for Lucifer to spend the whole day in the workplace, and the time to return to the atrium will be shortened. reduce.Even if we go back, since it's midnight, Sandalphin is probably already asleep.He didn't want to wake Sandalphin, so he put the matter aside.He even wondered if it was possible to change the method, since Sandalphin seemed really unwilling, let him stay by his side...?But he soon had to make a firm decision to let Sandalphin endure because of the objective situation—the other party came faster than he thought.
"At 3:00 this morning, I received a warning message from Gran Saifa." Raphael, who is in charge of managing the farther area, reported to Lucifer with a solemn expression: "They found the body by the beach. Check the documents It was discovered that it was one of Canaan's co-researchers who had worked with Lucifer. There were traces of torture on the body. Gransafar has not reported to the human side for the time being, but asked your opinion."
"..." Lucifer wasn't too surprised, but rather solemn, he said to Raphael, "The name of the dead?"
Raphael reported his name, and Lucifer directly looked it up in the database, and then said: "Yes. I understand. This professor is not used to walking by the sea in the early morning. Canaan's security system is also Did not call the police, that is to say..."
"That is to say." Raphael seemed to have an idea: "There are people who know Canaan very well. Or the word I don't want to use but I have to use... internal response."
"This judgment is reasonable. Although from my personal point of view, it is also an ending that I am very unwilling to face, but since someone has crossed this line, it has exceeded the bottom line of tolerance. And Gransafa's side I also need an answer." Lucifer turned one of the tablets over to show Raphael, and Raphael glanced at it and asked, "Have you identified who it is?"
"I have noticed it, but I can't guarantee it's completely correct." Lucifer took out a list of strengthened people who needed to receive psychological treatment before.
"Then all the staff arrange the brain surgery this afternoon and clear all the memories to ensure nothing goes wrong."
"Hmm. It's true that it's better to deal with it this way——but, if it's a friend..."
Lucifer stared at the long list, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"One brain surgery requires at least three researchers and several low-level augmented humans as assistants. If measures are taken immediately to reduce damage, it means that augmented humans who are working in other positions must be transferred from other positions to work for a long time. This is For Canaan, it is a gap. If it is a friend, he will probably take advantage of this time to come."
"Come on? You mean the dead former director of Lucifer...?" Raphael couldn't keep up with Lucifer's train of thought. He didn't understand Lucifer and the legacy left by Lucifer like Lucifer did. .It's just vaguely aware that there is such a thing, and it has been sealed by Lucifer.Lucifer nodded: "Of course, it won't be him. But he has something left in Canaan, so he will definitely find a way to get it away. What Canaan will face next is not a specific person, but The wisdom of a friend."
"I see. But without brain surgery, there needs to be a different way of finding the killer."
"Let's also set up simple traps here." Lucifer replied: "Notify all Canaan staff that the brain experiment will start at [-]:[-] p.m., and ask all staff to hand in all personal belongings and wait before [-]:[-] p.m. In your own house. When informing them, reveal some rumors about the deceased. In addition, inform Uriel to secretly monitor all entrances and exits, sewers, and communication between Canaan and the outside world."
"So that's the case, let the other party take the initiative to show their feet?"
"Well, let's implement it like this first. It would be great if the matter can be resolved so smoothly. If this action does not find out who should be investigated, I will also tell you the follow-up plan."
——Already thought about the follow-up?When did you think about it?Raphael glanced at Lucifer slightly in surprise, but left Lucifer's office without saying anything. After saluting, he left Lucifer's office.Lucifer sat down on the chair, which reminded him of the scene of playing chess with Lucifer when he was first created.He was able to beat Lucifer by relying on calculations, but later Lucifer asked Beryl to play with him, and he gave Beryl a very macroscopic order, and then the outcome became [-]-[-].As a kind of game, it can still be said to be somewhat interesting, but Lucifer doesn't want the pawns to become human lives at all.Thinking of Belial, Lucifer suddenly realized that he almost forgot one thing - Beryl's body has not been found yet
Of course, the fact that he fell into the sea is supported by surveillance video, and there are also a lot of eyewitness testimony.Therefore, they all took Beryl's death as a premise to think about the following things.Even if a strengthened person falls into the icy sea water in early winter without his hands, there is no possibility of surviving.But this conclusion also has a premise, Beryl is a strengthener.
Lucifer still couldn't forget what he saw in Beelzebub that day.Driven by Lucifer's newly researched power core, unless the connection between the core and the brain is cut off, Beelzebub is still "alive" and extremely aggressive even if the body is scorched and deformed by high-voltage current.And Belial installed that core, at least Lucifer confirmed it with his naked eyes that day.It is very possible that Belial is not dead, but his life and death will not cause any change to what he is going to do. Lucifer was already 120 points vigilant when dealing with the delicate situation in Canaan , even if there were really more Belials on the opposite side, he didn't have to adjust his defenses. The only change was that he had a little more emotional thinking.
As a human, Lucifer is definitely dead.Lucifer also went to see those pieces of meat that were so broken that they couldn't even be put together into a complete body. The former friends turned into a lump of vaguely shaped pieces of meat. This kind of occasion was really not very pleasant.But compared to himself, Belial, who has directly witnessed this process and is still working hard in accordance with Lucifer's will, must have endured far more pain than himself.
As for whether that pain would change Beryl's behavior style, Lucifer couldn't predict it.He stopped thinking about the past that could not be changed, and stood up.Now that a trap has been set, if you don't keep an eye on it, the trap will lose its meaning.He didn't have much time to be sad.
Enhanced people who have awakened free will will not obediently undergo brain surgery. When they hear that their own memories are going to be erased, they will definitely come up with some ways to try to prevent this.Man does not want to revert to the state of the tool, and that is what he takes advantage of.And he knows that these enhanced human essences are still new things that have been created not long ago, and they have no experience in dealing with them.Using ignorance and good intentions to set a trap, it sounds... like it's my fault.
...Maybe it was really me who was wrong.There is nothing wrong with humans, and neither are these augmented humans.
News of the experiment quickly reached Sandalphin.
Sandalphin didn't respond, it's better to say that he has been quiet and unresponsive for so many days, he doesn't have to leave the atrium after class.Like the plants in the atrium, he basks in the sun every day at sunrise, and washes and rests at sunset.Do nothing extra... and nothing.
At the beginning, I may still want to fight for it.But as Lucifer left early and returned late, Sandalphin's strength to fight was gradually exhausted.He just wants to procrastinate now, procrastinating not to think about when he will be thrown out.After hearing the news of the brain surgery Harut and Marut said, he even felt a little turning point.
"Master Lucifer wants to adjust me?" He asked softly, "Turn me into someone useful to him."
"It shouldn't be an adjustment just for you. Don't be too nervous." Marut thought he was afraid of the operation, so she softened her voice and said, "Everyone has to do it. I heard that it is a wave of sorting out the memory. It may be Empty and refill with knowledge."
"Empty...?" Sandalphin froze for a moment: "Why do you want to empty it?"
"I don't know. Then I have to ask Lord Lucifer. Ah yes, your personal belongings are also temporarily handed over for safekeeping. Let me see the receipt... Mobile phones and other electronic equipment, and personal documents... Well, Sandalphin, you should hand over your phone, right? It will be returned to you after the operation is over." Harut looked at the receipt and said to him, Sandalphin's mobile phone was on the table, he heard this, Go back and get your phone.Just as an email came in, the phone beeped.Harut asked casually: "Are you on the phone with a friend? Then we can wait?"
"No, the phone or something..." How could someone call himself?Sandalphin hadn't even turned on the phone much, but after pressing it now, he immediately saw the email from that number.
"...!"
that number.The number that didn't reply at all and said a lot of strange things.This cannot be seen by Lucifer.Sandalphin didn't know why he thought this way, but his first reaction was to delete all these emails in a hurry.But the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't operate it properly. As soon as he pressed it down, the phone slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a thud, which made his back tremble.The Gemini over there also heard the voice, and Harut laughed seeing him: "Don't panic, we still have a lot of time to wait, it doesn't matter if you finish speaking slowly."
"Ah, ah, good..." Sandalphin took a deep breath and tried to look normal, then picked up the phone and completely deleted dozens of emails.Should... delete it?He was vaguely worried that invisible records would be left behind, but there seemed to be no other way to deal with it.He anxiously handed the phone to Gemini, and Marut took it over: "But I think, such a sudden experiment is really because of the murder in the early morning?"
"Murder?" Sandalphin became curious about this matter, so he asked, Marut replied: "Well, someone found a researcher's body by the sea this morning, so I think it should be to find the murderer Let’s go through everyone’s memories.”
"Read all, all of them? Is it possible to do such a thing?"
"It was impossible to do it before, but Master Lucifer said that he has a way. Whether it's memory or thoughts, he can probably see everything clearly."
"idea……"
Sandalphin felt her heart skip a beat, and her face turned pale.It turned out to be here—in my own head.He tried hard to keep those negative, dark thoughts under wraps.Now you say you want to expose it to Lucifer?Including his own hesitation and those petty entanglements... How could Lucifer look at these?What would he think when he saw this?Seeing that his expression was not right, Harut asked worriedly, "Sundaefern, are you feeling well?"
"Ah, no. No, is there nothing else?"
"Well, it's gone. Remember to go to the hospital if you feel unwell?"
Sending off the teaching twins, Sandalph sat down on the chair.
Already helpless.It seemed that everything that happened was accelerating the process of Lucifer throwing himself away.What an idiot I am, I should have found out in the first place.It was already a great favor for that person to lend a helping hand.And no matter how hard I try to grab that person's hand, I will eventually be let go.The initiative was in Lucifer's hands, when Lucifer got tired and gradually let go, no matter how much he struggled, it was just a poor performance.
However, he didn't want to accept it.He doesn't want to accept it anyway.There should, should be some other way.He wants to be on the same level as that person, wants to be needed by that person, and wants to be with that person forever.When he was tugging at his hair in confusion, he didn't know how long he thought, there was a strange commotion outside the door.
"My compatriots! Realize the fact that you are being used and consumed!!!"
Someone shouted on the street, more than one person, they seemed to be incited, and they patted every house in the residential area with righteous indignation: "Have you heard about it! The experiment! Why did the group of humans use us as tools to come here?" Use? Send it back and restart it if you don’t like it? This is unreasonable! Come out! Let’s go to the director for an explanation!”
It was an Augment in a guard outfit, and he was followed by five or six other Augments.Although these people shouted quite loudly, they didn't knock on a few doors, so they were still screaming hoarsely: "The deputy captain wanted to be free, but they killed him! Now they want to continue to use us! We were created Is it just to be enslaved! I don’t believe it!!!”
"That's right! Let the director discuss with humans and come up with a result! Obviously we are the better ones!"
"Let him suspend the brain surgery plan! Our memory is our own! Our will is not allowed to be tampered with!"
Sandalphin stared at this group of people expressionlessly. They can make trouble all the way here. Although the scale is small, it also represents something.The guards they encountered didn't approve of them, but they didn't disapprove of them either.An enhanced person saw San Defen in the courtyard, and shouted at him through the iron fence: "Compatriots! You join us too! Go stop Director Lucifer! If he speaks, it will definitely change our current situation." of!"
"Sorry, I'm not interested." Sandalphin's response was the same as turning down a normal cold call.The other party suddenly showed an angry expression: "You don't know how unfair the situation you are in! If you go on like this, one day the unfairness will be rewarded to yourself!"
Sandalphin ignored him.The other party walked away angrily and knocked on the door of the next house.If the security personnel in other areas are alerted after a while, this group of people will be suppressed.But San Defen found that at some point, the long-haired man who had given him earphones was suddenly standing around the corner.
The man stared at the direction in which the small group of people left, and murmured: "They are going to find the director. They want the director to lead them to freedom. This is really strange."
Sandalph didn't find it strange.That adult is the leader here, why is it strange that they place their hopes on him?
"Director Lucifer himself has never been free. How can he lead others to freedom?" The man said, suddenly turned his head to Sandalphin, and handed him a mobile phone.Sandalphin looked up at him—it wasn't normal, most Augments don't have cellphones these days.Where did this guy get his phone?But he just maintains a deadpan outstretched hand, looking like a clumsy but faithful machine carrying out orders.If Sandelfin doesn't pick up, then he might just stand there forever.Sandalphin really lacks the means to contact Lucifer at hand, so he can only deal with it according to his own cognition: "This thing shouldn't appear here now, do you want to protest like those people?"
The long-haired man himself didn't speak, but there was a voice from the phone that made Sandalphin's body tense instantly: "Protest? Ah, you mean those little ants who are yelling over there? That's I beg them to make a little commotion so I can have a word with you—Sandy, I guess you've forgotten about me in so little time, have you?"
"You...Belier! Are you still alive!?" Sandalphine frowned suddenly, and a series of cheerful laughter came from the phone: "Yeah~ who made me lucky? Not only alive, but also incredibly happy outside, above and below."
Sandalphin immediately pushed away the chair, stood up and rushed out the door. It was obvious that he was going to report the matter by himself, but the long-haired man who was still motionless just now stretched out his hand and clamped his crotch arm.Sandalphin was startled and shook it hard, but failed to shake it off, and said coldly: "Let go."
"I can't let you go." The man just said so.
"Oh, Sally, did you hold him back? Actually, you can let him go. Now that you let him go, maybe he will be in time to die with Lucifer?" Beryl said in his tone. Full of sarcasm, it came out low and clear from the hands-free cell phone, and you could even hear the sound of water coming from the other end of the phone: "Sandy, I heard that kissing someone at the moment of death will be so refreshing Oh? You can just try it."
"What do you mean?" Sandalphin's sight, if there is any entity, probably has already stared at the phone.Beryl said lazily: "I'm just here to give you good intentions. There are dead people in Canaan today, and Lucifer wants to check everyone's brains. I don't need it Did I tell you?"
"Since you are alive, I think this matter has nothing to do with you." Sandalphin felt that his arm was being pulled to go to other places, and he used all his strength to keep himself in place: "Lucifer I haven't settled with you for your lord's suffering."
"Hey~ It's really too much——" Beryl dragged out his tone: "It's so intense from the beginning, is it a new type of scolding play? It's not bad. But it has always been human beings who hurt your Lord Lucifer Oh? Last time, and this time too. Let me tell you, haven’t you ever wondered why Canaan suddenly died?”
Sandalphin knew he shouldn't pay attention to him, but what Beryl said really hit his curiosity in a tricky place.In his silence, Beryl continued: "I investigated the project and source of the enhanced human system, and found something interesting. Human happiness promotion agency-this is the name of the enhanced human being created, but in reality This is not the case at all. We are just a weapon, a prop that does not belong to anyone, but wants to be used by anyone. It is more beautiful to have the name of human happiness in front of it. It is good to strengthen human personality. Whether it's Canaan or not, it's just a sugar coating on the outside. And what happened last time has already made some people unable to sit still - Lucifer is in the way."
This is not the first time that Sandalphin heard this theory, so he was not quickly angered like last time, but he still gritted his teeth unconsciously: "What the hell do you want to say."
"Some people want to push this matter on Lucifer. Ah, yes, it's not just this matter. Lucifer will have a lot of troubles in the future. He will be accused today, suspected tomorrow, and forced to take him away the day after tomorrow. Go...maybe you can gather all kinds of postures? As long as this system is maintained for one day, he will have to bear the trouble for one day. Of course, I personally have no objection, I am already a 'dead person', I can't care about these things .”
"What basis do you have for saying this..."
"No." Belial simply gave a negative answer: "Then you can treat me as nonsense. Did you use the mind reader made by Fasan last time? Then you just wait and see him again." Being tied up again to prove your innocence?"
"--!"don't want.Now that Sandalphin thinks about the scene he saw that day, he will still be seized by terrible fear. His rationality tells him that this is probably Belial's nonsense, but he is also afraid that even if there is only a slight possibility, it is true.Beryl continued: "Oh, but Sandy, if you like that kind of gameplay, you can let it go? First destroy Lucifer, and then tie him by your side, you want to do that, right? ""I don't!!!"
Sandalphin's roar was drowned out by the loud shouts of the protesting crowd behind him, his breathing became short of breath, and Beryl snickered: "In a hurry?"
Why, why hasn't anyone come over yet?Isn't this place full of security guards?Sandalph was thinking confusedly, come on, come on and stop all this.But no one came.Belial whispered like a devil: "Sandy, I tell you all this because I think you, like me, don't like humans. What is there a saying? The enemy of an enemy is a friend. So this is my advice to you Ah...you don't believe me, you should also believe my loathing of humans?"
Sandalphin slammed away the hand of the man who was holding her, stepped back a few steps and lowered her head.His chest heaved with intense emotion, and finally the sound of security guards suppressing the protesters came from behind him.Amidst the roar of cursing, the man called Shali spoke up: "Vice-captain, we can't delay."
"OK, thank you for your hard work, Sally." Belial thanked him, and left a last sentence: "Hey Sandy, at 1 o'clock tonight, you come to the cliff in the northwest by yourself."
"I...why should I listen to you..."
"I have the information of the person who wants to kill Lucifer, whether it's his name or his address. Let's use each other, I'll make you happy."
Sandalph didn't answer, he just clenched his fist tightly.Sariel hung up the phone, threw the phone on the ground, crushed it, and then left silently.Sandalph stood alone, feeling a little blurred in front of his eyes.why why.He doesn't understand anything.What to believe?He raised his head, and found that the surveillance camera on the corner of the street was facing his face—clearly and vividly conveying his expression to an unknown person in the distance.
Whether it's memory or thoughts, he can probably see everything clearly.
These words sounded out of place in Sandalphin's mind.
In the monitoring room, Lucifer and Michael silently stared at Sandalphin on the screen.For a while, no one in the room spoke, until Michael broke the silence: "... Director, according to your instructions, I have deliberately delayed the time to stop the commotion. The changes in various places have been recorded, San Defen ...It was also recorded. However, due to the interference of other voices, he could not understand the content of the call just now. Further interrogation is needed to understand the situation..."
"Sandall was just pulled out to lobby. He didn't do anything." Lucifer's voice didn't waver at all.
"But just now, Sandalph's mobile phone communication records have been retrieved. You can look at these emails." Michael handed him a stack of information, but Lucifer didn't answer it: "I will ask. Sandalphin will tell me what happened to him, and I will fill in the missing part of the call in this video. But Sandalphin can never be the murderer, so there is no need to take any compulsory measures against him.”
"Yes." Since Lucifer expressed the intention to take care of it personally, Michael didn't say anything more, and she continued to ask: "Then what about the escaped Sariel? He was originally at an extreme level of consciousness. The low-level enhanced person now seems to have obvious sprouts of self-awareness, should he also be arrested?"
"No, monitor him. Maybe someone else will be drawn out. I'll leave this up to you." Lucifer grabbed his coat and put it on, looking like he was about to leave the monitoring room.
As a result, since then, Lucifer has not been able to talk to Sandalphin properly.
He needs to transfer and seal up Lucifer's legacy. Since it is a big guy, just carrying and preventing information leakage is enough for Lucifer to spend the whole day in the workplace, and the time to return to the atrium will be shortened. reduce.Even if we go back, since it's midnight, Sandalphin is probably already asleep.He didn't want to wake Sandalphin, so he put the matter aside.He even wondered if it was possible to change the method, since Sandalphin seemed really unwilling, let him stay by his side...?But he soon had to make a firm decision to let Sandalphin endure because of the objective situation—the other party came faster than he thought.
"At 3:00 this morning, I received a warning message from Gran Saifa." Raphael, who is in charge of managing the farther area, reported to Lucifer with a solemn expression: "They found the body by the beach. Check the documents It was discovered that it was one of Canaan's co-researchers who had worked with Lucifer. There were traces of torture on the body. Gransafar has not reported to the human side for the time being, but asked your opinion."
"..." Lucifer wasn't too surprised, but rather solemn, he said to Raphael, "The name of the dead?"
Raphael reported his name, and Lucifer directly looked it up in the database, and then said: "Yes. I understand. This professor is not used to walking by the sea in the early morning. Canaan's security system is also Did not call the police, that is to say..."
"That is to say." Raphael seemed to have an idea: "There are people who know Canaan very well. Or the word I don't want to use but I have to use... internal response."
"This judgment is reasonable.

"Then all the staff arrange the brain surgery this afternoon and clear all the memories to ensure nothing goes wrong."
"Hmm. It's true that it's better to deal with it this way——but, if it's a friend..."
Lucifer stared at the long list, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

If measures are taken immediately to reduce damage, it means that augmented humans who are working in other positions must be transferred from other positions to work for a long time.

"Let's also set up simple traps here." Lucifer replied: "Notify all Canaan staff that the brain experiment will start at [-]:[-] p.m., and ask all staff to hand in all personal belongings and wait before [-]:[-] p.m. In your own house. When informing them, reveal some rumors about the deceased. In addition, inform Uriel to secretly monitor all entrances and exits, sewers, and communication between Canaan and the outside world."
"So that's the case, let the other party take the initiative to show their feet?"
"Well, let's implement it like this first. It would be great if the matter can be resolved so smoothly. If this action does not find out who should be investigated, I will also tell you the follow-up plan."

"Murder?" Sandalphin became curious about this matter, so he asked, Marut replied: "Well, someone found a researcher's body by the sea this morning, so I think it should be to find the murderer Let’s go through everyone’s memories.”
"Read all, all of them? Is it possible to do such a thing?"
"It was impossible to do it before, but Master Lucifer said that he has a way. Whether it's memory or thoughts, he can probably see everything clearly."
"idea……"
Sandalphin felt her heart skip a beat, and her face turned pale.It turned out to be here—in my own head.He tried hard to keep those negative, dark thoughts under wraps.Now you say you want to expose it to Lucifer?Including his own hesitation and those petty entanglements... How could Lucifer look at these?What would he think when he saw this?Seeing that his expression was not right, Harut asked worriedly, "Sundaefern, are you feeling well?"
"Ah, no. No, is there nothing else?"
"Well, it's gone. Remember to go to the hospital if you feel unwell?"
Sending off the teaching twins, Sandalph sat down on the chair.
Already helpless.It seemed that everything that happened was accelerating the process of Lucifer throwing himself away.What an idiot I am, I should have found out in the first place.It was already a great favor for that person to lend a helping hand.And no matter how hard I try to grab that person's hand, I will eventually be let go.The initiative was in Lucifer's hands, when Lucifer got tired and gradually let go, no matter how much he struggled, it was just a poor performance.
However, he didn't want to accept it.He doesn't want to accept it anyway.There should, should be some other way.He wants to be on the same level as that person, wants to be needed by that person, and wants to be with that person forever.When he was tugging at his hair in confusion, he didn't know how long he thought, there was a strange commotion outside the door.
"My compatriots! Realize the fact that you are being used and consumed!!!"
Someone shouted on the street, more than one person, they seemed to be incited, and they patted every house in the residential area with righteous indignation: "Have you heard about it! The experiment! Why did the group of humans use us as tools to come here?" Use? Send it back and restart it if you don’t like it? This is unreasonable! Come out! Let’s go to the director for an explanation!”
It was an Augment in a guard outfit, and he was followed by five or six other Augments.Although these people shouted quite loudly, they didn't knock on a few doors, so they were still screaming hoarsely: "The deputy captain wanted to be free, but they killed him! Now they want to continue to use us! We were created Is it just to be enslaved! I don’t believe it!!!”
"That's right! Let the director discuss with humans and come up with a result! Obviously we are the better ones!"
"Let him suspend the brain surgery plan! Our memory is our own! Our will is not allowed to be tampered with!"
Sandalphin stared at this group of people expressionlessly. They can make trouble all the way here. Although the scale is small, it also represents something.The guards they encountered didn't approve of them, but they didn't disapprove of them either.An enhanced person saw San Defen in the courtyard, and shouted at him through the iron fence: "Compatriots! You join us too! Go stop Director Lucifer! If he speaks, it will definitely change our current situation." of!"
"Sorry, I'm not interested." Sandalphin's response was the same as turning down a normal cold call.The other party suddenly showed an angry expression: "You don't know how unfair the situation you are in! If you go on like this, one day the unfairness will be rewarded to yourself!"
Sandalphin ignored him.The other party walked away angrily and knocked on the door of the next house.If the security personnel in other areas are alerted after a while, this group of people will be suppressed.But San Defen found that at some point, the long-haired man who had given him earphones was suddenly standing around the corner.
The man stared at the direction in which the small group of people left, and murmured: "They are going to find the director. They want the director to lead them to freedom. This is really strange."
Sandalph didn't find it strange.That adult is the leader here, why is it strange that they place their hopes on him?
"Director Lucifer himself has never been free. How can he lead others to freedom?" The man said, suddenly turned his head to Sandalphin, and handed him a mobile phone.Sandalphin looked up at him—it wasn't normal, most Augments don't have cellphones these days.Where did this guy get his phone?But he just maintains a deadpan outstretched hand, looking like a clumsy but faithful machine carrying out orders.If Sandelfin doesn't pick up, then he might just stand there forever.Sandalphin really lacks the means to contact Lucifer at hand, so he can only deal with it according to his own cognition: "This thing shouldn't appear here now, do you want to protest like those people?"
The long-haired man himself didn't speak, but there was a voice from the phone that made Sandalphin's body tense instantly: "Protest? Ah, you mean those little ants who are yelling over there? That's I beg them to make a little commotion so I can have a word with you—Sandy, I guess you've forgotten about me in so little time, have you?"
"You...Belier! Are you still alive!?" Sandalphine frowned suddenly, and a series of cheerful laughter came from the phone: "Yeah~ who made me lucky? Not only alive, but also incredibly happy outside, above and below."
Sandalphin immediately pushed away the chair, stood up and rushed out the door. It was obvious that he was going to report the matter by himself, but the long-haired man who was still motionless just now stretched out his hand and clamped his crotch arm.Sandalphin was startled and shook it hard, but failed to shake it off, and said coldly: "Let go."
"I can't let you go." The man just said so.
"Oh, Sally, did you hold him back? Actually, you can let him go. Now that you let him go, maybe he will be in time to die with Lucifer?" Beryl said in his tone. Full of sarcasm, it came out low and clear from the hands-free cell phone, and you could even hear the sound of water coming from the other end of the phone: "Sandy, I heard that kissing someone at the moment of death will be so refreshing Oh? You can just try it."
"What do you mean?" Sandalphin's sight, if there is any entity, probably has already stared at the phone.Beryl said lazily: "I'm just here to give you good intentions. There are dead people in Canaan today, and Lucifer wants to check everyone's brains. I don't need it Did I tell you?"
"Since you are alive, I think this matter has nothing to do with you." Sandalphin felt that his arm was being pulled to go to other places, and he used all his strength to keep himself in place: "Lucifer I haven't settled with you for your lord's suffering."
"Hey~ It's really too much——" Beryl dragged out his tone: "It's so intense from the beginning, is it a new type of scolding play? It's not bad. But it has always been human beings who hurt your Lord Lucifer Oh? Last time, and this time too. Let me tell you, haven’t you ever wondered why Canaan suddenly died?”
Sandalphin knew he shouldn't pay attention to him, but what Beryl said really hit his curiosity in a tricky place.In his silence, Beryl continued: "I investigated the project and source of the enhanced human system, and found something interesting. Human happiness promotion agency-this is the name of the enhanced human being created, but in reality This is not the case at all. We are just a weapon, a prop that does not belong to anyone, but wants to be used by anyone. It is more beautiful to have the name of human happiness in front of it. It is good to strengthen human personality. Whether it's Canaan or not, it's just a sugar coating on the outside. And what happened last time has already made some people unable to sit still - Lucifer is in the way."
This is not the first time that Sandalphin heard this theory, so he was not quickly angered like last time, but he still gritted his teeth unconsciously: "What the hell do you want to say."
"Some people want to push this matter on Lucifer. Ah, yes, it's not just this matter. Lucifer will have a lot of troubles in the future. He will be accused today, suspected tomorrow, and forced to take him away the day after tomorrow. Go...maybe you can gather all kinds of postures? As long as this system is maintained for one day, he will have to bear the trouble for one day. Of course, I personally have no objection, I am already a 'dead person', I can't care about these things .”
"What basis do you have for saying this..."
"No." Belial simply gave a negative answer: "Then you can treat me as nonsense. Did you use the mind reader made by Fasan last time? Then you just wait and see him again." Being tied up again to prove your innocence?"
"--!"don't want.Now that Sandalphin thinks about the scene he saw that day, he will still be seized by terrible fear. His rationality tells him that this is probably Belial's nonsense, but he is also afraid that even if there is only a slight possibility, it is true.Beryl continued: "Oh, but Sandy, if you like that kind of gameplay, you can let it go? First destroy Lucifer, and then tie him by your side, you want to do that, right? ""I don't!!!"
Sandalphin's roar was drowned out by the loud shouts of the protesting crowd behind him, his breathing became short of breath, and Beryl snickered: "In a hurry?"
Why, why hasn't anyone come over yet?Isn't this place full of security guards?Sandalph was thinking confusedly, come on, come on and stop all this.But no one came.Belial whispered like a devil: "Sandy, I tell you all this because I think you, like me, don't like humans. What is there a saying? The enemy of an enemy is a friend. So this is my advice to you Ah...you don't believe me, you should also believe my loathing of humans?"
Sandalphin slammed away the hand of the man who was holding her, stepped back a few steps and lowered her head.His chest heaved with intense emotion, and finally the sound of security guards suppressing the protesters came from behind him.Amidst the roar of cursing, the man called Shali spoke up: "Vice-captain, we can't delay."
"OK, thank you for your hard work, Sally." Belial thanked him, and left a last sentence: "Hey Sandy, at 1 o'clock tonight, you come to the cliff in the northwest by yourself."
"I...why should I listen to you..."
"I have the information of the person who wants to kill Lucifer, whether it's his name or his address. Let's use each other, I'll make you happy."
Sandalph didn't answer, he just clenched his fist tightly.Sariel hung up the phone, threw the phone on the ground, crushed it, and then left silently.Sandalph stood alone, feeling a little blurred in front of his eyes.why why.He doesn't understand anything.What to believe?He raised his head, and found that the surveillance camera on the corner of the street was facing his face—clearly and vividly conveying his expression to an unknown person in the distance.
Whether it's memory or thoughts, he can probably see everything clearly.
These words sounded out of place in Sandalphin's mind.
In the monitoring room, Lucifer and Michael silently stared at Sandalphin on the screen.For a while, no one in the room spoke, until Michael broke the silence: "... Director, according to your instructions, I have deliberately delayed the time to stop the commotion. The changes in various places have been recorded, San Defen ...It was also recorded. However, due to the interference of other voices, he could not understand the content of the call just now. Further interrogation is needed to understand the situation..."
"Sandall was just pulled out to lobby. He didn't do anything." Lucifer's voice didn't waver at all.
"But just now, Sandalph's mobile phone communication records have been retrieved. You can look at these emails." Michael handed him a stack of information, but Lucifer didn't answer it: "I will ask. Sandalphin will tell me what happened to him, and I will fill in the missing part of the call in this video. But Sandalphin can never be the murderer, so there is no need to take any compulsory measures against him.”
"Yes." Since Lucifer expressed the intention to take care of it personally, Michael didn't say anything more, and she continued to ask: "Then what about the escaped Sariel? He was originally at an extreme level of consciousness. The low-level enhanced person now seems to have obvious sprouts of self-awareness, should he also be arrested?"
"No, monitor him. Maybe someone else will be drawn out. I'll leave this up to you." Lucifer grabbed his coat and put it on, looking like he was about to leave the monitoring room.
