The Secret History of Mars.

Chapter 8 Jia Liang, the Man of Many Faces

At eight o'clock in the morning, Du Ming waited downstairs in the laboratory on time.Feng Shuhai sent Yuan Yizhou out of the laboratory, and handed him a dense bag. Yuan Yizhou saw that it was the Qieluotang water blade.

"Just in case, take it with you." Feng Shuhai urged.

Yuan Yizhou nodded and bid farewell to Feng Shuhai.

Du Ming sent Yuan Yizhou back to his private apartment in the city center. Yuan Yizhou told Du Ming, "Go back to the company directly. I won't go out today. By the way, tell Xiaoai for me that this week's schedule is all cancelled."

"Then what time will I pick you up tomorrow?" Du Ming asked.

"I'm going to No. 1, Dayun South Road, Jiexiong North Street, again tomorrow. This time I have to be there on time at 10:30 in the morning. You calculate the time, and according to your road conditions, just drop me off at ten o'clock." .” Yuan Yizhou trusted Du Ming’s professionalism very much, so he let him decide when to pick him up.

"Okay, no problem, Mr. Yuan, you are ready to leave at the apartment at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and I will be downstairs at nine o'clock on time." Du Ming said confidently.

After Du Ming drove away, Yuan Yizhou entered the password of the apartment unit door, entered the lobby, and walked towards the elevator room. Before he took a few steps, he heard someone shout: "Mr. Yuan, please stay!"

He looked back and saw that it was Xiao Li from the property. "What's the matter?" Yuan Yizhou asked.

"Good morning, Mr. Yuan, here is a package just delivered to you by express delivery. I wonder if you can sign for it now." Xiao Li said while taking out a package from under the front desk in the apartment lobby , It doesn't look heavy, but the volume is not small.

Yuan Yizhou glanced at the courier slip on the package, the recipient was indeed him, and the sender column was blank!After signing Xiao Li's receipt record, he carried the package into the elevator.

This is a villa area located in the bustling city center, where it is quiet amidst the hustle and bustle. Yuan Yizhou's apartment is a duplex in the complex. The elevator enters the house, and when the door is closed, it is a seclusion, and when you go downstairs, you are in the red world.It was also the wedding room that he and Cui Xingmeng had just prepared, so the layout of the room was very novel and unique, full of the elegant taste and affection of the future hostess and hostess.

After Yuan Yizhou entered the door, he put the courier package in the entrance, took off his suit jacket, put on slippers, then found a pair of scissors, and began to unpack the courier package without a sender.After removing the outer express mail package, there was a black dress box inside. As Yuan Yizhou expected, the inside was carefully wrapped with soft paper. It was the silver-white suit that Ye Qinghe customized for him in Tsing Yi Pavilion, Luotang.

Yuan Yizhou took out his clothes and put them on the sofa, and went to the bathroom to take a shower. He needed to catch up on his sleep to prepare for tomorrow's unpredictable appointment at Miemeng Gallery.

In the 72 hours after Cui Xingmeng's disappearance, Yuan Yizhou didn't close his eyes. In addition to the mental work that lasted all night last night, he slept very deeply. When he woke up, it was already sunset.After waking up, his brain was very clear, as if the clues that he couldn't figure out before going to bed, in deep sleep, the background of his brain was processed.

He suddenly realized that he had overlooked a person. This person was at the scene when Xingmeng disappeared. This person also had the key to the Miemeng Gallery. This person also helped Lin Die successfully complete the task of inviting himself into the Miemeng Gallery. He It's my childhood friend, Jia Liang, the producer of the TV station Paibao program!
"Maybe it's because I know the other party too well, so I just turned a blind eye to it." Yuan Yizhou thought angrily, and dialed Jia Liang's phone number.

"Hey, Yizhou, what's the matter?" The familiar voice sounded a little strange at the moment.

"What do you know about Xingmeng's disappearance?" Yuan Yizhou went straight to the point.

There was silence on the other end of the phone. After a long time, Jia Liang said, "Have you had dinner yet? I came to see you at the barbecue restaurant near your home. We haven't had a drink for a long time."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the barbecue shop." Yuan Yizhou agreed quickly.

After hanging up Jia Liang's phone, Yuan Yizhou made a greeting call to his mother. At the end of the call, he said to his mother, "Mom, I might have a long business trip, so I won't be able to call you recently. Take care of yourself." If you want to take a stroll, come and see me, the envelope in the first drawer on the left side of the TV cabinet in my living room is for you in case of emergency."

After chatting with his mother, Yuan Yizhou put all his bank cards and password letters into an envelope with "Mother Yuan Qi" written on the cover, sealed it and put it in the drawer that he had agreed with his mother.If something really happens to me and Xingmeng, these mothers who have worked hard all their lives can live a peaceful life in their old age.

After the arrangements were made, Yuan Yizhou put on his coat and went downstairs for a short walk before arriving at the barbecue restaurant Jia Liang had mentioned. He ordered barbecue and beer and waited for Jia Liang to appear.

Not long after, Jia Liang arrived. He sat in front of Yuan Yizhou, his eyes met. Obviously Yuan Yizhou didn't intend to speak first.

"I do know some things related to Xingmeng's disappearance." In the end, Jia Liang spoke first, "But you will naturally know about these things when you arrive at Miemeng Gallery, so I didn't tell you, for fear of adding to your troubles."

"Tell me, what's the matter." Yuan Yizhou tried his best to control his emotions and focus the conversation on the key points.

"I am Ye Qinghe's experimental seed recruiter." Jia Liang saw that there was no need to hide it anymore, so he confessed everything. "Mainly responsible for helping her recruit excellent seed players for the earth experiment, Cui Xingmeng is the No. [-] seed who meets the requirements in all aspects."

"Are you not from Earth?" Facing Fa Xiao, who he grew up with, Yuan Yizhou struggled for a long time, and finally asked this sentence.

"Yes, not really." Jia Liang was noncommittal, "It depends on your definition of a human being on Earth."

"The definition of a person on Earth?" Yuan Yizhou imagined Jia Liang's countless answers to his own questions, but never imagined that he would say this.

"I'm actually an Earthling, because my entire physical structure has evolved through several generations, and I don't need Luo Tang's help. I can fully adapt to the Earth's environment, and I'm no different from what you call an Earthling." Jia Liang continued. Said, "The only difference is that I am no longer limited by the time coordinate."

"Restrictions on time coordinates? What do you mean, you can travel?" Yuan Yizhou tried to understand Jia Liang's words.

"It can be said that if people on earth can only travel in three-dimensional space, then the civilization of my home planet is no longer limited by the time dimension, and can travel in four dimensions." Jia Liang tried to explain to him with Yuan Yizhou's words.

"The civilization of your home planet? So you are from Mars?" Yuan Yizhou asked tentatively.

"It seems that you gained a lot in the identification laboratory last night. A piece of leftover material from Luotang actually allowed you to find so much information." Jia Liang said approvingly, "It is indeed the seed catalyst I recommend! Yes, my wisdom Both the body and the soul come from the civilization of Mars, but these all need a carrier and container, which is my body as an earthling." Jia Liang finally found a more precise expression to answer the question of whether he is an earthling.

"I am the seed catalyst you recommended?" Yuan Yizhou would not find it strange what Jia Liang said at the moment, but the combination of these words made it difficult for him to connect with himself.

"Yes, Xingmeng is the No. 1 seed of the Shiyiji Earth Experiment approved by the elders' house. Her lover, that is, you, is the catalyst for this seed. Without you, they can't do anything to Xingmeng." Jia Liang Explained, "So they asked Lin Die to invite you to Miemeng Gallery."

"Is Lin Die a Martian like you?" Yuan Yizhou could only find out what he could understand from Jia Liang's words and asked.

"No no, she is a native of the earth just like you, but I hope she is an immigrant from Mars, so that my chances will be more." Jia Liang said sincerely and helplessly, "She is the No. 1 backup seed who voluntarily participated in the earth experiment. .”

"What are the earth experiments and seeds you keep mentioning?" Yuan Yizhou tried to keep the conversation within a scope he could digest. "Where did Xingmeng take you now?"

"I'm just a recruiter. I can't know the confidentiality level of these questions. You may have to ask Ye Qinghe yourself." Jia Liang shrugged.

It's Ye Qinghe again, it seems that tomorrow we really have to meet this person, no, it's the Martian who is behind the scenes manipulating the so-called Earth experiment!
