The villain is trapped in the system and begs me to let him out [Moriarty who worries about the coun

In the living room of Room 1, Unit 6, Building 402 of the Teacher's Apartment, William was leaning on a single sofa alone, flipping through a hardcover book borrowed from the library, which was Calvino's "Invisible Cities".He still remembered that when he first arrived, the first book Du Ruoying showed him was Calvino's "The Baron on the Tree".

At this moment, Du Ruoying was taking a shower in the bathroom.

Opposite the sofa, on a thin, thin-frame LCD TV, is playing the evening news of a young male star whose career has been ruined by a strange addiction.The channel was randomly chosen by Du Ruoying before, and he was not interested, so his attention was always on the pages of the book.

"There comes a point in your life when more people you know are dead than alive," William read slowly, in a decibel that only he could hear, "and at this point your heart starts to refuse to accept More faces and more expressions. Each new face bears the imprint of the old one, each looking for a suitable mask." [1]

He had to admit that he enjoyed reading some sentences more than glancing over them silently.Every utterance between his lips and teeth is like a gentle pressing of a piano key deep in his heart, which can more violently stir up some kind of melancholy that he can't express.He wanted to temporarily immerse himself in such emotions, as a kind of remembrance.

Although this will also make the thirst more frequent.

Just as William reached for the black tea on the glass coffee table, the phone screen next to the teacup suddenly lit up.He looked up and saw that it was a new WeChat message.

[Bai Qirun]: See you at two in the morning.Three strokes are short, three strokes are long, otherwise the door will not be opened.

Before he could take a closer look, Du Ruoying had already walked out of the bathroom.She was wearing a loose sky blue pajamas, her long wet hair was coiled up high with a pale pink towel, leaving her fair neck unobstructed.

William quickly turned his gaze back to the page.

However, Du Ruoying still noticed something.She quickly stepped forward to pick up the phone, and found out that it was Bai Qirun's message, her deer-like eyes suddenly revealed a vigilant look: "You——didn't peek at my phone, did you?"

"Am I such a boring person?" He slowly turned the pages of the book and asked in a non-hurried manner.

"Hmph, it's better not." She gave him a displeased look, raised her hand to turn off the TV, and then went back to the bedroom, "I'm going to bed, good night."

"Good night." William closed the book and smiled unpredictablely towards her back.

"Oh, at two o'clock in the morning, three times short, three times long...?"

After lying on the bed, Du Ruoying's serious brows suddenly relaxed. She turned on the phone and happily replied to Bai Qirun: "Good job, he saw it successfully."

"Oh, that's fine." Bai Qirun said, "Then we'll lure him out of the cave at two o'clock in the morning."

"Well. Just to be on the safe side, let's check the time node in the plan at the end." Du Ruoying said, "I went out on time at two o'clock in the morning, and I got rid of his stalking halfway. If I can't find me, he will definitely come to you directly The apartment is estimated to arrive in about 10 minutes. I rode a bike to find you one step ahead of him, and then we left together and hid nearby. Then the recording of our conversation started to play automatically in your bedroom, making him mistakenly think that we were in the house. Recording Remember to play it deeper, lower the volume, and keep the door unlocked, so as to lure him in. Finally, as soon as he walks in, the mechanism will be triggered, all doors and windows will be locked, and hypnotic gas will be released—"

"I've already remembered. Are you bothered by nagging so many times?" Bai Qirun said speechlessly, "The only important thing now is—don't oversleep for me. If you dare to oversleep, you will be responsible tomorrow morning." Collect the body for me."

"...do I look like that kind of pig teammate? Don't worry, I don't plan to sleep at all on such an important night." After finishing speaking, she picked up the tablet next to the bed and clicked on an architectural software tutorial website Class looked up.

The full moon outside the window gradually moved westward, and the time soon reached two o'clock in the morning.

Accompanied by imperceptible footsteps, William walked into her bedroom silently, and covered her with a thin blanket while she was sleeping soundly.Then, he picked up the sun hat she put on the desk and put it on his head.

"It seems that the tranquilizing medicine mixed with shower gel has a good effect." He walked to the full-length mirror with a sneer, and raised his hand to adjust the position of the brim of his hat to ensure that he would not go through when looking at him from Bai Qirun's monitoring perspective.

At the same time, on the other side, Bai Qirun knocked on the table with his fingertips anxiously, and looked at the surveillance screen at the door from time to time, but there was no one in the screen.

When the time in the lower right corner of the monitor jumped to 2:07, three short knocks and three long knocks finally sounded.Bai Qirun walked quickly to the door and opened it, only to be met by a pair of bright red pupils——

Before Bai Qirun could close the door reflexively, a section of rubber wire breaking with electric sparks appeared ten centimeters in front of his Adam's apple, forcing him to stop all movements.

It turned out to be Moriarty!

On such a clear summer night, the strange visitor's attire looked simply too bizarre.He was wearing a beige sun hat, and his whole body was wrapped in a pitch-black robe. The collar of the black robe was turned up high, covering his mouth and nose tightly, leaving only his eyes exposed.

Bai Qirun glanced at the wires that were close at hand, and the hand that was holding the wires under the black glove: "It turned out to be Professor William James Moriarty, who came here late at night, and I don't know what he can do. "

Dare to call him by his real name, it seems that the young man in front of him already knows everything.

"Actually—" William's voice was soft and calm, "I just had a nightmare. I dreamed that there was a circuit failure in your room, and you were electrocuted to death unfortunately. This ominous premonition is so strong, it is really Worried me, so I decided to come over and see if you were okay."

"Of course it's fine," Bai Qirun looked unexpectedly calm, "Once my heartbeat is abnormal, for example, it stops suddenly - it will trigger an automatic alarm device and send real-time location data to the police. Although The fact that I have no neighbors seems to have been noticed by you, but don't forget, cloud monitoring technology is not weaker than the ancient protection device of 'neighbors'."

"Oh?" Even if he didn't know what those strange techniques Bai Qirun introduced, but by observing the changes in his pupils and breathing rhythm, William could realize that what the other party said was true.

"Hey, Du Ruoying's elm head...I knew things would turn out like this..." Bai Qirun lowered his head and sighed lightly, then raised his head and showed him a sick smile, "It doesn't matter, it's better to say, it's actually like this Even better—because the person I've been waiting for is you."

From the very beginning when Du Ruoying conceived the plan, he expected such an ending.He wasn't naive enough to believe that she could really successfully plot Moriarty, not to mention that the secret code he and her had really agreed upon wasn't three short and three long.

So this door was opened just for William.

"You, are you waiting for me?" William unhurriedly drew a circle in front of Bai Qirun's Adam's apple with a broken wire, "Are you not scared at all?"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. As long as you are still interested in the mystery of the resurrection system, you will naturally not be willing to kill me. Who designed this system, how does it work, and whether it can successfully resurrect you? Why did you choose?" Resurrecting you, not choosing someone else...don't say you're not curious about these questions." Bai Qirun said, "And I'm the only one who can give you the answers."

"To be honest, I really admire your conceited attitude. For the time being, regardless of whether I can find another person to crack this system instead of you, let's talk about the position first-you and Xiaoying together Isn't cracking the system just to put me at a disadvantage?"

"It's Du Ruoying's elm head that wants to put you at a disadvantage, not me." Bai Qirun said, "There are not many interesting things in this world, and now I have finally discovered this one. I don't want to let it go so soon." Clean it up.” He paused, then raised his voice a little higher, “Hey, let me ask you, this feeling of wandering alone in a foreign country in the 21st century—it must be very lonely? However, If you can solve the mystery of the resurrection system and know the principle and method of resurrecting you, then it is not impossible to resurrect other people. Think about your brothers and friends, you will have the opportunity to reunite in this new era. Ju. Are you going to give up this opportunity?"

Brothers... reunion? !

A trace of surprise flashed in William's heart, which made him unconsciously lower the wire in his hand a little bit, but his expression was still stern: "Is this kind of thing really possible?"

"If you kill me, then of course you can't do it." Bai Qirun replied lazily, "I know you still don't trust my technology, and you think you can find a replacement. In order to prove to you that this is What an impossible thing, I might as well reveal a piece of data to you now-I have already seen your mission four, which is to spread a new type of computer virus to the teachers and students of the school, but you still have no way of knowing the mission four What's the reward, right?"

"Well, that's right."

"I've unlocked the peripheral code of this reward program," Bai Qirun said with a very relaxed ear, "The reward for mission four is 'Dream Invasion', you can use it to peek into Du Ruoying's dreams—ahhh , What a nice reward. That guy's secrets have always been hidden very deep, so he only hopes to find out in his dreams. I only tell you this information, not Du Ruoying, because if you let her Knowing that, she will definitely resist mission four."

"So, you unlocked the data information of the reward of mission four in advance." William thought, "What does this mean?"

"Huh?!" Bai Qirun obviously couldn't accept the other party's calm reaction, "...Okay, okay, I forgot that you are an old antique from the 19th century, so let me explain a few more words—— In just a few minutes, a peripheral program of the resurrection system was unlocked, and the information obtained is also easy to verify—you only need to complete task [-] to know that I am not lying. And this exclusive information I only I told you. In fact, the program of this resurrection system is more complicated and difficult to understand than any program I have seen before. Even a mere peripheral program is designed to be extremely dangerous. I dare to bet you that you will never find out The second person can do this, if you don’t believe me, try it and see how far others can solve it.”

"So, in this field, you are at the top level?" William put down the wire completely, and showed him a smile of appreciation, "And you plan to stand on my side, not Xiaoying's side?"

"Yes, you can be lucky." Bai Qirun said, "However, even if I am a top player, it is impossible to completely break through the entire system in a short period of time. What I want to do now is to guide Du Ruoying, an elm-headed man, to obediently control the system." Continue the mission, let the program run, and gradually open the deeper black box, so that I have the opportunity to peek into the core secrets. From the perspective of 'continuing the mission', we can establish a good cooperative relationship .”

"Partnership...?" William half-closed his eyes, and began to look at the boy in front of him again.

The young man's eyes were as deep as ink, and there was a faint sense of abnormal excitement. His pair of bony fingers had long nails, which seemed to have not been trimmed for a long time. From the bite marks all over the tips of the nails, it could be seen that He has the habit of biting his nails.The wrist bones of his limbs are extremely thin, as weak as brittle branches, and his strength is so weak that he can't even lift half a bucket of water.

The details of these appearances are no different from the impression when I first saw them during the day.

However, something is different...

There must be somewhere in him, now, completely different from the day——

Bai Qirun tilted his head to meet William's scrutinizing gaze: "Any questions?"

"Yes, the last question." William smiled. "Originally, you were the one who was recruited by classmate Xiaoying to help her, but now you say you want to cooperate with me—in view of your puzzling change of position, I I can't help but want to know, what is the relationship between you and classmate Xiaoying?"

In the early morning of the next day, the bright sky made Du Ruoying wake up suddenly from her drowsy drowsiness.She picked up her phone and saw that it was already 05:30.A huge uneasiness rushed to her forehead in an instant, almost drowning her out of breath.

"...Bai Qirun...Qirun!" She rushed out of the door immediately, ran to the door of the bedroom across the corridor, and saw that William was still sleeping.

However, how could she easily believe this illusion?

Forget about brushing her teeth and washing her face, she hurried downstairs, got on a shared bicycle, and rushed to the door of Bai Qirun's apartment.

There was silence in the corridor of the apartment, and the door of his room could be seen from a distance.Although the anti-intrusion mechanisms he usually designed still made her feel a little apprehensive, she still ran in without hesitation.

"Bai Qirun! Answer me if you are here! Qirun! Bai Qirun! Bai..."

However, the scene in front of her suddenly stopped her anxious shouting in an instant——

In Bai Qirun's messy bedroom, she saw him with his back to the door, buried in a bright red desk, motionless.The viscous red liquid on the table was still slowly spreading, until it reached the edge of the desk, and then suddenly dripped down, making one sound and another light sound.At five o'clock in the morning, which was so quiet that it made people deaf, the sound made Du Ruoying's brain go blank...
