Don’t panic when the apocalypse comes, stock up on food first and then guns

Chapter 473: Lao Qi, I don’t want to be Suzaku

Seventh floor of Dawn Tower.

Unlike the heat outside, the entire office is extremely cool, with the air conditioner blowing cold wind.

The huge screen on the left side of the room almost covers an entire wall, and the wall is full of surveillance footage.

These surveillance pictures divide the entire underground assessment site into pieces, some facing the long and narrow aisles, and some facing some corners...

In the frontmost surveillance pictures, there are contestants who are constantly fighting in the rotunda.

The leather office chair faced the door with its back, and a pair of short and thick thighs that looked like two mallets were tapping their toes unconsciously. A small amount of white smoke was floating in the area blocked by the back of the chair.

"Knock Knock Knock!"

There was a knock on the door.

"Lord Qi, Priest Suzaku just appeared at the entrance and is coming this way."

"I see."

After a moment, the office door was pushed open from the outside, and a figure wearing a red bird head mask and a black robe appeared at the door.

She is a bit thin, so the Suzaku head mask looks disproportionately large to her body.

The boss's chair turned 180 degrees, revealing a short and fat young man.

This man is only about 1.6 meters tall, with a short build, and is very fat. He weighs about 1,780 pounds by visual inspection. He has a chubby wheat-colored face and looks very kind.

"Hey, Priest Suzaku, why are you free to come sit here today?"

He jumped off the chair, limped to the ashtray, and put out the unfinished cigarette in his hand.

After Suzaku entered the door, he sat on the sofa beside him and stared at the pudgy young man with his eyes behind the hood.

Qi Louzhu felt uncomfortable when she looked at him, "What's wrong with you? You suddenly looked at me like a monkey, I'm not used to it."

He sat back in his boss chair, feeling a little irritable.

I wanted to smoke, but I thought of something and suppressed the urge again.

Suzaku was silent for a long time and kept staring at him. The atmosphere in the office was stagnant.

After a long time, she asked.

"Old Qi, where did you bring that robot?"

I didn't expect that this was what she asked, and the host Qi was a little surprised.

"Why are you asking this? Is it possible that you know that robot?

But I’ve brought it back for so long, and you’re asking now, is it too late? "

"Don't worry about anything else. Just tell me where you brought it back from."

"..."

"can not say?"

"The high priest has confessed..."

What was explained, Qi Louzhu did not explain clearly.

"Then tell me, did the high priest know anything from that robot, and why did he suddenly change his mind..." Suzaku asked instead.

"..." Qi Louzhu remained silent.

Suzaku stood up angrily and paced back and forth. The Suzaku head mask around her neck seemed to be a little anxious as she moved.

"You can't tell me this? Why?!"

"Suzaku, you shouldn't ask these questions in the first place."

"Why? Why?!

I am one of the four high priests, and you are just the host. Why can't I know what you know? "

Qi Louzhu was thoughtful and could clearly see that Suzaku was in a very abnormal mood, so he knew that she must have met the high priest.

Only after meeting the high priest did she have such severe mood swings.

He sighed, "Suzaku, do you want me to die by asking this question?"

"The high priest is doing something, and both the four high priests and the building owners are all participants in it, but everyone participates in different parts and knows different things.

He split a huge secret into countless puzzle pieces and handed them over to each person's hands, so the secrets in each person's hands were different.

What I know you don’t know.

Similarly, I don’t know the part you know, Suzaku, have I asked you? "

These secrets are their lives.

Once the third person finds out, the high priest will not let them go.

As soon as these words came out, Suzaku felt as if a ladle of cold water had been poured on his heart, and he suddenly woke up.

Behind the empty eye sockets of the mask, those violent eyes quickly calmed down.

"Lao Qi, I'm sorry, I was reckless today." The voice was a little childish and full of uneasiness.

"fine."

Master Qi waved his hands indifferently, "Suzaku, your biggest problem is that you think too much. We have been with the high priest all the way. If it weren't for him, we would all have died three years ago.

He never misses what he wants to do, so why would you question him? "

"I just……"

Suzaku was speechless, "...Old Seven, don't you think the price is too high? If we continue according to the high priest's plan, all of us will die."

"The end of life is death, but it just comes too early. One day we will grow old and disappear silently in the dust.

But the high priest will make our lives as gorgeous as fireworks. When our lives explode, they will be remembered by everyone.

We will completely dispel this darkness and usher in the dawn.

This is the meaning of the existence of Dawn Tower. Only by living toward death can you see through everything.

Suzaku, you have become greedy for life, which is not like you. "

Qi Louzhu had his hands behind his back, and his young face looked very peaceful, as if he had seen through life and death.

Then he suddenly thought of something, his pupils trembled, and his sharp gaze was directed at Suzaku.

"Suzaku, are you... worried about me?"

Suzaku shook his head, a little pitifully, "No, no, I really didn't, I swear."

The priest was obviously superior to the host, but it was clear that the host Qi was in the dominant position in the conversation between the two in front of them.

Suzaku's voice was trembling and slightly choked.

The thin figure was wrapped in a large black robe, looking empty.

"Old Qi, I don't want to be a Suzaku. Can I give you the Suzaku head? I don't want to wear this mask..."

“Why don’t you want to be Suzaku?

The high priest said that Suzaku was the one who accompanied him out of the Tower of Dawn, which meant that only Suzaku could survive. Do you know how many people want to be Suzaku!

Do you think anyone can be a Suzaku? ! "Lord Qi grabbed Suzaku's thin shoulders and growled through gritted teeth.

"But...but...I just don't want to watch you die in front of me one by one...

I would rather stay in the Dawn Tower forever with you than go out alone.

Lao Qi, I’m scared, I’ve seen a lot of corpses, and I don’t want you to lie coldly in front of me like that one day…”

As if comforting a child, Master Qi patted Suzaku's back gently.

"How can you be alone? The high priest is with you. He is our brother, the brother of everyone.

Do you still remember what the dean’s mother said? Everyone who died will be reunited in another world. We just go to find other brothers and sisters first. Suzaku, you are the strongest, aren't you?

Only the strongest people have the courage to go to the end, so will you do this favor for everyone?

Live on our behalf until the end and help us see if everything we have done has any meaning. "

He was not tall, but he made Suzaku feel particularly at ease.

"But Lao Qi, I'm afraid..."

There was an inexplicable panic in her heart.

No, it seems that the high priest has deceived everyone.

He will not leave the Dawn Tower at all, and he will stay here forever, so in the end, the only person who leaves the Dawn Tower is himself.

She would be alone, carrying everyone's lives on her back. This kind of weight made her feel terrible even thinking about it.

Suzaku was not the one who accompanied the high priest out of the Tower of Dawn, but the one who collected the corpses for everyone.

In other words, everyone in Dawn Tower will die, including the eight tower masters, the four high priests, and even the high priest!

The high priest said that Hope Base and City No. 9 are heading in the wrong direction, and everyone is heading in the wrong direction.

They didn't find the right direction, so no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't see the dawn.

But he found the right path...

What is the way of the high priest?

Suzaku was trembling uncontrollably. Qi Louzhu's stubby hand gently patted Suzaku's shoulder, but his eyes were looking at the dense surveillance screen on the left.

In the picture, Miao Dao's cold light flashed, and plasma splashed on his dark face, instantly dyeing his black and white pupils red.

The key to the high priest has been found.

He looked at the surveillance camera, and the people in the picture seemed to be looking at him through the surveillance camera.

Qi Louzhu was stunned for a moment, blinked hard, and looked again, and saw that the man's figure had disappeared from this scene and appeared in the next surveillance section.

Maybe I saw it wrong. No one has ever noticed the monitoring of the assessment site.

That kind of micro-monitor is only the size of a soybean and is hidden in every corner and dome. Even if you look closely, you can't find it.
