After Perception Trilogy Hindsight

Things happened too fast, too fast, before he had time to react, think, or sort out his thoughts from the beginning, things had already happened, it was a foregone conclusion...

"Boss!" When Gianxi came to report, he was discussing with G about the recent events and the aftermath plan...

Giotto looked at him calmly, smiling to comfort the panting man, "Take your time, what happened?"

"X...", taking a deep breath, Gianci held his breath and reported under Giotto's gaze, "Mr. X is gone!"

Giotto perfectly concealed his emotions as usual, and the calmness on the surface successfully made Gianxi calm down, but the clenched fists at that moment could not deceive himself, let alone the one who had been paying attention to him all the time. Left and right hands, "What's going on? Make it clear."

"I was assigned to deliver the meals to Mr. X's room. Today, when I delivered the meals to the room as usual, I found..." I quietly glanced at my boss, and after making sure that the other party's expression hadn't changed, I continued. , "I found that Mr. X is no longer inside..."

Gianxi paused for a while, and continued after receiving Giotto's signal, "I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find it... I asked the guards and they said they didn't know, or they didn't know..."

After Gianci explained all the other details, Giotto waved him to deal with other matters, leaving only the two people from the beginning in the room...

Giotto didn't speak to break the silence, and G silently thought to himself.

The guards can't tell if they don't know, but if you think about it on the bright side, it means that the guards didn't fulfill their duties, and they didn't even know when they left...

But think deeper...

After taking a sip of coffee, he has been busy dealing with things these days, and coffee has no effect on him, at most it can be regarded as a drink...

If you think about it, you can easily leave the headquarters...

So, what is that person staying here for?In this case, leaving without leaving a message can almost be said to be able to immediately list that person as a traitor...

Glancing at Giotto, G put down his coffee cup and remained silent.

Giotto probably thought of this...

But he would never have thought of another possibility...

In the silence, G couldn't help but look up at the sky outside...

Rain, dripping on the ground...

That guy really has his own tricks...

I think I'll soon know where that person is...

Giotto, who was playing with the pen, seemed to be thinking a lot, but he didn't seem to think about anything...

He thinks about that person's purpose, then thinks about the kindness that person treats him...

Thinking of that person's behavior but also thinking of that person's contribution...

The possibility of the other party's goodness and complete malice keeps appearing in my mind...

Two completely opposite possibilities kept intertwining in his mind, any one was possible and could explain the other's actions...

People are like this, no matter what the original intention of that person is, as long as they already have some thoughts in their minds, they will more or less be affected by their own preconceived ideas when judging the other person's behavior...

The pen slipped out of the finger's control in a spin, and fell...

Dazed for a moment, Giotto didn't bend down to pick it up immediately, but turned his head to look at the gloomy sky outside...

In the sky covered by overcast clouds, you can't see the brilliance of the stars that should be at night...

Just like his mood at the moment...

I can't see a ray of light, I can't find a ray of hope...

he is confused...

Should he believe it?Believe in a person who can't even answer a few simple questions...

Shouldn't he believe it?Can't believe a guy who keeps smiling at him just to make him smile again...

What is the right way to do it?

What should I do?

X ...

Should he trust you...?

The icy cold water splashed on his body made him in a trance for a moment, and he didn't see things clearly until his eyesight worked again. He came back to his senses in an instant, remembering what happened before he lost consciousness...

He went deep into the forest and successfully found the so-called waterfall, but there was nothing behind the waterfall, because he was worried that the relationship between the weather and the rain might have made him ignore important clues or entrances, so he started groping again from the beginning again...

This time he was very careful, almost touching it with his hands to make sure, the bone-chilling mountain water poured on X who was only wearing a thin coat, the bone-piercing coldness...

Fortunately, the body trained by Reborn can still bear it...

But after searching carefully but still unable to find any clues, X couldn't help doubting his own guess. He lowered his head and thought that he still had no clue, and rubbed his swollen and painful temples a little irritably, wondering if he had overlooked something...

When he opened his eyes anxiously, the rapids below the waterfall broke into his field of vision...

It suddenly occurred to him that there was another place he hadn't looked for...

Before the mind can analyze the feasibility of this conjecture, the body has jumped into the rapids one step ahead of the brain.Falling into the water with a standard posture is perfect, but what is difficult is the waterfall that keeps falling from above and the icy deep pool. The icy waterfall keeps rolling the pool and hitting X...

Washed by the icy water, the trained X almost couldn't bear to be washed away because of the physical and mental exhaustion of the past few days. Holding his breath, he swam to the bottom of the waterfall with all his strength...

Carefully protecting his head from the impact of the waterfall, X desperately searched for...

he is betting...

Bet on whether your guess is right, bet on whether the place he is looking for is right, bet on whether the person he mentioned is the person Primo is looking for...

he is betting...

He can only gamble!

Searching desperately, enduring the coldness of the deep pool and the rapids caused by the wandering water, and the stomach pain that recurred due to the lack of appetite and lack of food for a while...

He held his breath and forced himself to swim deeper again...

The deeper water flow is not as fast as above, although it is still a torrent, but it is still more comfortable, at least you don’t need to worry too much about the heavy impact of the waterfall...

Taking advantage of the better view below, he looked around with the tiny light reflected in the water...

After a few minutes, X, who still hadn't found anything, began to feel a little anxious. He hesitated for a few seconds whether to return to the surface of the water immediately to breathe, and decided to hold on for a few more minutes.After making up his mind, he swam closer to search, and when he was looking around, he suddenly found that the oblique side was a little unnatural, and he swam over with more energy as soon as his thoughts turned...

At that moment, X felt that his eyes must have been brightened. There was a protruding rock on the oblique side. After swimming over the rock, he saw a small hole. The hole just enough for a grown man to swim through is covered up...

Without thinking too much, X, who was already on the verge of hypoxia, swam in with his body...

He can't remember what happened afterwards, only instinct...

He remembered that he swam to the shore of the cave by relying on his survival instinct, and swam up before he was completely out of breath by taking advantage of the little light...

He only remembered the moment he came up, his shoulder seemed to be stabbed by some sharp weapon...?

Blinking his eyes, he roughly understood his situation. He is now in a place similar to a dungeon.

However, the environment of the dungeon here is very bad, perhaps because this is a valley, and the hiding place of these people is under the waterfall, so this natural cold dungeon that has been eroded by water for a long time has become a good place for bacteria to grow.The wound on his body due to being scratched by the sand and stones in the torrent is fine, but the wound on his shoulder has festered...

X moved his shoulder lightly to feel it, and he felt relieved if he didn't feel too serious. The wound on his shoulder didn't hurt any muscles or bones, but the puncture was deeper, the blood flowed more, and he wasn't taken care of After cleaning up and the relationship with the environment, it looks a little more serious, but nothing else...

It can be said that it is surrounded by nature, or it is protected by nature. The entrance that needs to go deep into the bottom of the waterfall alone is enough to make those who just stumble or play with water. It was ruled out, not to mention the need to search carefully, if he hadn't seen the hole, he had no doubt that he might have missed the entrance...

No wonder even the Intelligence Bureau of the first generation of Yunshou has no clues...

While looking around the environment and organizing his thoughts, X sighed unconsciously...

They probably never expected to be in such a place, right?Even if he looked for the waterfall, he would probably go around to check behind the waterfall like he did before, but he would never have thought that there was such an entrance under the pool of the waterfall...

If it wasn't for You Mu's reminder, he wouldn't have searched so carefully to find the hole...

While he was sorting out his thoughts, there was a sound of footsteps not far from the corner, and a few seconds later it was replaced by a voice that was very light but became louder through the structure of the hole, "The person who sneaked in are you awake?"

"I didn't go to see it just now, and I'm going to go to see it again—"

"No, I'll just go." A man's voice that seemed to be a high-ranking person came across the cave wall, "Boss wants to see him."

Then came the sound of footsteps starting to move, and as the footsteps got closer, X just forced himself to sit up...

It turned out to be a purpose, so he hoped that he could directly enter the topic...

This might be the last thing he can do for Primo...

So he hopes that the sooner the better...

The sound of footsteps disappeared in front of the cell door where he was, "Who are you?" There was a face they were familiar with...

X looked up at the other party, licked his dry lips, "I want to see Mattis." Before he finished speaking, he felt the sudden but expected thick murderous look and piercing eyes...

"Don't worry, I don't mean anything malicious.", forcing himself to raise the corner of his mouth to smile, X tried his best to behave gentle and sincere...

The man didn't say anything more, but directly unlocked and walked in, and roughly pulled X who was sitting against the wall up, and then began to pull out without waiting for X to stand still, warning while pulling, "If you have What suspicious behavior, I will kill you directly." The sharp and serious tone revealed the seriousness and determination of the speaker...

This kind of tone and content made him very familiar. It seems that he hears this very often here, and a certain loyal dog has warned him like this...

The smile on his face seemed to be no longer forced, and X couldn't explain why, but he felt a sense of relief...

Smiling, X's answer to the other party's warning was very simple...

"it is good."

The man snorted softly and led him over without saying anything...

When he saw the so-called boss, X was in a daze. If he hadn't guessed it earlier, he would have been surprised. Although the man in front of him was not as similar as a twin to Ke Lisi, he still had a half-dozen. …

Not to mention the identical pair of eyes, it gave a lot of points for the similarity of the two people...

"You are Mattis.", stating the sentence, the moment he saw the other party, there was nothing to doubt, X was sure that he was not mistaken, luckily he didn't enter that cold pool in vain...

"I am..." Looking at the similar face, Matis's eyes were a little blurred, "You..."

"This face is my illusion." Knowing what the other person wanted to ask, X answered without hesitation, "I am a member of Vongola, and my boss is looking for you everywhere."

Hearing this, Mattis' eyes finally focused. His eyes were gentle, but he gave a negative answer, "I won't see him."

"..." After a moment of silence, X decided to speak out his guess, "A few days ago, the boss brought back a young lady, and then the boss ordered to look for you."

"...Miss?", Mattis twitched his lips slightly, but there was no trembling sound when he spoke...

"Yes, Miss Chrissy."
