Symbiote Ninth

Shi Yu looked in shock at the two people who were breaking free, and then at the strong man lying on the ground whose life or death was unknown. Link subconsciously protected Caesar behind him, guarding against his sudden violent attack. Unexpectedly, Shi Yu said: " You go, hurry up, the people outside have been taken away by me, and the rest of the people are in a meeting, there is a hole in the fence in the northeast corner, don't go through the main entrance."

Both Caesar and Link looked at him suspiciously, Shi Yu became anxious, pointed at the door and said, "Let's go!"

"Whose people are you?" Caesar asked him.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go!" Shi Yu pushed them towards the door and pushed them out. He suddenly grabbed Caesar's wrist as if repenting, and took off his torn clothes to see the wounds in his body.

What he saw was not fuzzy flesh and blood or scarred wounds, but bones made of circuits and steel.

As if he was facing a big enemy, Link pulled Caesar back, but Shi Yu didn't make any other moves. He seemed to have been greatly frightened or knew some creepy facts, and just stood there blankly, Until Link took Caesar away from here, he didn't turn to look at them again.

Link and Caesar run away.

The two didn't want to go back to the tent to take risks, because they knew in their hearts that there was a high probability that there were people there, but they had to take this risk. Without the tent, they would never survive tomorrow.

When they went back, it was already dark, and the surrounding area was pitch black, with no fire or light. Their tent was still in place. The two approached the tent as lightly as possible. When they got closer, Caesar bent down and got in first. There was no sound from inside, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, he felt that someone covered his mouth and fell heavily to the ground!

"Don't move." A familiar voice sounded in a low voice.

Caesar was stunned, and reached out to touch the other person's face. The other party hesitated to hide, and let go of his hand. Caesar said, "It's me."

Hearing his voice, the other party quickly let go, and said in surprise and joy, "I knew it was you!"

When the light came on, Freesia squatted in front of him, Caesar and Link asked together, "Where's Chenghe?"

"He's nearby, and he'll drive over later."

As soon as Freesia finished speaking, the sound of the car engine came from far and near. He opened the tent and looked out. The car stopped nearby, and a figure jumped out of the car and limped closer. Freesia waved her hand happily and said, "Here!"

Chenghe came over, saw Link and Caesar who were still panting, and excitedly slapped Link on the shoulder, "I fucking thought you were dead!"

Link: "...Thank you for your concern, I thought you were dead too."

Chenghe still wanted to talk, but Link waved his hand and said, "Pack up your things and get in the car, it's dangerous nearby."

After the tent was packed, the four got into the car. Caesar and Freesia sat in the back seat. Freesia held Caesar's injured left arm and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"It's not a big problem, it can be fixed." Caesar patted his head, "What about you?"

Cheng He looked back vigilantly along the endoscope, and interjected: "He's fine, I'm dying."

He was shot twice that day. Fortunately, he was blocked by bulletproof clothing, so he didn't hit any vital points. Freesia's handling behind him was timely, and finally nothing serious happened. He recovered, walked with a limp, and forced Freesia several times to swear that even if she was limped, she would not run away with the wild man.

The car drove away, and the four of them exchanged information. Cheng He gave bad news, and Lin Yitai seemed to be under house arrest.

"...how come?" Link said.

"It's true. The night before yesterday, Freesia helped me hide my location. I watched it on the public channel, and the news had been hanging for several days. The former general Lin Yitai was under investigation for violating discipline. That's probably what it said. , because someone has been trying to track me, I quit my account without clicking on it, but the title is indeed right.”

After he finished speaking, the car was silent. Link closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. Caesar could probably guess that he might be hesitating whether to tell Chenghe his true identity.

If you don't say it, you will inevitably involve the other party in the end, and you may pull Chenghe, who still has a trace of life, into an even more embarrassing situation. Hesitant to accept Link's true identity?

Freesia put her arms around Caesar's arm and leaned on his shoulder, showing a very close look. Caesar thought that it would be better for Link to tell this matter later, and he didn't want Freesia to have to worry about who to talk to. Let's make a choice.

"Is that statue really exactly like you?" Freesia asked.

"That's right, I don't really know what I look like." Caesar said casually, "What do you think I look like?"

"Ah?" Freesia raised her head to look at him, her eyes sparkling, "You look so pretty."

Chenghe coughed twice, very artificially, Caesar deliberately stretched out his hand to pinch Freesia's face, and praised him: "You look good too."

Freesia didn't realize it, she still hugged Kaiser and didn't let go, Chenghe rolled her eyes, drove the car to a sheltered place and stopped, the four of them got out of the car, cleared an open space to make a fire, dug some snow and started to boil water , Chenghe snapped his fingers at Freesia, and signaled, "Come here."

Freesia reluctantly left Caesar, went to sit in front of Chenghe, and sat down next to him. Chenghe was very satisfied with his self-awareness, and embraced him from behind without hesitation, holding him face to face. Putting her face close, she said affectionately: "Why do you always like to get together with others?"

Freesia said, "No."

Caesar rolled his eyes, and Link bent his fingers and tapped him on the head, "What are you doing?"

"You don't care about me." Caesar said, "Give me the computer and think about where we should go."

Holding Link's computer, he called up the map and roughly determined the current location of the four of them. Suddenly, he felt that things were very difficult. How should they go now?Back in the residential area, maybe their arrest warrants have been posted all over the world, crimes against humanity... Maybe that's how they are characterized?Cheng He and Link may still have a chance of life, he and Freesia will definitely be caught and destroyed soon, and maybe all artificial intelligence will be affected.

But if you continue to hide in the enemy-occupied area, it is definitely not a long-term solution. He and Freesia can not eat or drink, and Link and Chenghe will have to eat up their supplies one day. Although they can catch rabbits as food, But what's the point of hiding here all the time?

He thought, it's meaningless, if you just live for the sake of living, it's meaningless at all.This is what he said to Freesia, and he himself cannot forget it.The ferocious expression before the death of the piggy bank came into his mind again, and the hatred gradually smoothed by the wind, snow, hunger and cold in the occupied area and Link's face surged up uncontrollably. At this moment, he suddenly and clearly recognized a In reality, he thought that he and Link were on the same road, but in fact, this idea was just his wishful thinking. If Link knew the plan he had flashed in the past, the two would definitely end up parting ways.

It is a river that cannot be broken through between two people.

Seeing him in a daze, Link sat beside him, clutching his immobile left hand and asking, "What's wrong?"

Caesar closed the computer, stood up and said, "Come with me."

Link froze for a moment, followed him, Caesar got into the car, Link also followed, and he closed the car door with a bang.

"what happened?"

Caesar said, "What are your future plans?"

To Caesar's surprise, Link said, "I'm going to steal that diary back."

"Huh?" Caesar said, "Stealing a diary?"

It never occurred to him that Link was still thinking about it.

"We haven't figured out why those animals went crazy. What if the virus is really transmitted to the residential area? The residential area is full of ordinary people, and their self-protection ability is very poor. Now that we probably know the virus It has something to do with the owner of that diary, maybe what’s written in it can make the military fearful, so it’s better not to cause more serious consequences.”

"But you're not—"

"As I said before, I don't belong to anyone, nor do I belong to any faction. Only some people in the Freedom Army are my like-minded partners. We are willing to work hard for the same purpose and change the current order, but we My ultimate goal is to bring the world back to its best, and I cannot and should not sit idly by."

Caesar opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a moment. Link rubbed his hair and continued: "And look at the statue in the laboratory that looks exactly like you, and Shi Yu saw it. Your reaction afterwards, I always feel that things are not that simple, I have a hunch that we must not treat this incident as if it didn’t happen, if we seize the opportunity, there may be a possibility of a comeback.”

"Noble personality." Caesar smiled, "worthy of respect."

"What do you mean?" Link sensed something was wrong with his emotions.

"Nothing." Caesar shook his head.

"I know what you're thinking." Link leaned over, his foggy eyes seemed to be able to see through him, "This world is not supported by endless hatred, hope is tomorrow, tomorrow is the future, we want to something to chase."

"Do you really know what I'm thinking?!" Caesar pushed him away violently, his emotions suddenly became agitated, "You don't know, because you are not me."

"I know you have hatred for human beings, but it is meaningless to cling to hatred. Besides, you have killed so many people, more than 130, isn't it enough for you to vent your anger?"

"...Do you think I killed people to vent my anger?" Caesar looked at him in disbelief.
