Chapter 54, Recovery

The siren was played in a loop, and the rioting crowd grew more and more.

The local army wanted to support the blockade area, but was the first to be stopped by the rioting people.

"Is what that person said true!"

"The government and the army are abandoning us!"

"Say, what purpose do you have!"

The threat of space-based weapons, mixed with the huge power of public opinion, overwhelmingly attacked the dark blue military uniform.

A major general committed suicide by drinking a bullet in a tall building of the military headquarters.

The last words he left were—[I can no longer bear the pressure of such a heavy lie, finally, I am relieved. 】

That last words, pasted next to the hot screen, with blood splashed on it.

"I only offer one hour, and I hope the military will seriously consider it." On the screen, Bei Qiao stretched out a finger.At the same time, a picture appeared next to his face again, which was the control interface for locking space-based weapons in space.The countdown shown above has started.

"If there is any unexpected situation during the period, I will turn on the weapon at any time, and if the connection between World 0 and this place is lost, the weapon will also be turned on automatically." Bei Qiao said.

Looking at Bei Qiao on the screen, the secretary holding a fax said to Commander Luo: "Commander, what he said is true, the space-based weapons are starting to warm up. Now the public's reaction is very excited, should we cut off the screen first?" ?”

Commander Luo shook his head, "He was able to destroy No. 0 ruthlessly, and he was able to destroy the dungeon, so don't act rashly."

The secretary nodded yes.Commander Luo thought for a moment, then continued: "You go there yourself and bring the doctor from the research institute that Luo Xingu locked up. Within an hour, you will get control of the No. 0 world main base."

"Do you need to contact the colonel in advance to prepare?"

"No." Commander Luo said, "Don't tell him."

The secretary took the order to leave.Commander Luo took off his gold-rimmed glasses and rubbed between his brows.He glanced at the photo frame on the table - a middle-aged man was sitting on a sofa chair in front of a brown-red background, and two teenagers stood beside him, one on the left and one on the right.

He looked at it for a while, then reached out and put the photo frame on the table.

"Clap."

The sound disturbed Su Qi who was sleeping on the hospital bed. She opened her eyes drowsily, and the siren sounded from all around trembled her eardrums.The head injury was still throbbing, she stretched out her hand to press the bandage and sat up, looking around in confusion.

It was very noisy outside, and some places even lit up the sky with fire.Su Qi glanced at the clock on the wall, and then at the medicine on the table—it was sleeping pills.Her pupils tightened, and she immediately called out, "Doctor! Nurse!"

But no one paid any attention to her.

Su Qi stood up, still a little dizzy.She staggered to the door and shouted outside: "Is anyone there!"

A nurse hurried past her, and she grabbed her arm.

Suki: "What happened? Someone put sleeping pills in my water."

Nurse: "Only the colonel has been in and out of your room. Don't worry about it, run away, it's a mess outside."

When Su Qi heard the word "Colonel", her hands loosened slightly, and the nurse took the opportunity to shake her off and ran away.

Su Qi turned back to the room and turned on the communicator, but all she heard was the harsh siren.She immediately found the army's internal paging device that she carried with her, and called the colonel repeatedly.

But the colonel never responded.

Time passed by, Su Qi persevered in doing this operation, until finally there was a "beep" on the other end.

"Lieutenant." The colonel's voice was very clear, as if he was standing in an open space.

"Colonel, where are you?" Su Qi spoke faster, "Did you add medicine to my water? Did you leave alone? This is different from our plan."

"It's the same as my plan."

Su Qi was taken aback.

"The trial has already begun. There shouldn't be any vacancies in the seat, but Su Qi, that seat is enough for me to be alone," said the colonel.

"...This can't be done," Su Qi waited for a long time before uttering these three words, "You can't do this."

There was a laugh from the colonel. "You finally don't need honorific words."

"It won't work." As if trying to convince herself, Su Qi repeated again, "Bei Qiao and the others are not aggressive and put people to death. Just like what we discussed before, they have accepted me and even allowed I help them with a lot of confidential things. If I tell them the truth, they will believe it, the truth should be known."

"The truth itself is not important, what matters is what kind of ending everyone wants to see. Someone is destined to be responsible for this farce." The colonel's voice came lightly.

Su Qi's hand holding the pager trembled slightly.

"The rule of the military will be overthrown one day, and people like me cannot appear as a positive savior. There will be people with ulterior motives who will use me as a guise, label them as heroes, and extol the benefits of autocracy. If If it really becomes like that, the world will repeat the same mistakes.” The colonel continued, “And, Su Qi, do you think it’s more convincing for a heinous person like me to be a hero, or to be judged and die as a sinner? What? Which one do people want to see more?”

There was a faint cry.

"Su Qi," the colonel softened his tone, "someone must bear the anger of the people. In the past, we chose that person as Little Red Riding Hood, but now, that person is me."

The sirens roared outside the house, and the noisy footsteps and voices were stacked together, mixed with the sky-high flames.

Tears flowed down Su Qi's cheeks line by line.

"Then you at least take me with you." Su Qi's voice trembled, "How could you abandon your most trusted subordinate?"

"We are no longer a stand-off."

When the colonel said this, Su Qi was stunned for a long time. "You..." She was speechless.

"You are one of the heroes who crusade against sinners. You have helped Beiqiao and the others, and they will remember your kindness." The colonel said with a smile, "You have done so many shameful things for me, I will not allow you to His subordinates also died with a stigma."

Su Qi finally couldn't help crying.

She broke down holding the pager and shouted: "Luo Xingu! Tell me your location! Hurry up! I beg you! I don't want to be a hero! I'm just your subordinate!"

However, on the other side, there was no response.

Su Qi rushed out of the room, looking for communication equipment everywhere, and even begged passers-by to ask how to connect to the communication.

"The entire blockade check point is in chaos, you should run quickly. The communicator is occupied by the person on the screen, and now no one can connect to the communication device." The passer-by left this sentence and left in a hurry.

Su Qi stood where she was, looking at the appearance of Bei Qiao displayed on the huge screen on the side of the street.

She leaned against the wall and knelt down slowly.

Half an hour passed.

Bei Qiao gently raised his hand, and countless white light spots rose from the black world.

They are like countless balls of fluff, rolling slowly on the ground and background space, gentle and beautiful.

Suddenly a communication came in.

Bei Qiao glanced at the screen, and the place where Luo Shang'an was originally standing was replaced by another man.The man's condition looked extremely bad, as if he had been severely abused.

"Dr. Lin." Bei Qiao recognized him after a long time, "You escaped."

"He let me come back." Lin Yu whispered, "Maybe he thinks I'm useless."

Bei Qiao raised his eyebrows, and then fell into deep thought again.

"The government has become a puppet controlled by the military, and it's normal that we don't get any feedback. But it's really strange that the military hasn't responded yet," Bei Qiao said.

"Commander Luo trusted his eldest son very much, and gave him the central management of the blockade." Lin Yu said, "It should be because the colonel has not responded for a long time."

"Could it be him..." Bei Qiao frowned.

"No." Lin Yu said firmly, "He is a devil through and through."

Bei Qiao heard Luo Shangan's voice from beside Lin Yu, "He tortured you."

"No, no." Lin Yu gritted his teeth, and slowly clenched his hands, "But he... did something worse than torture. He is no longer the Luo Xingu in the past..."

Neither Bei Qiao nor Luo Shang'an answered the phone.

After a while, Luo Shangan broke the silence.He said: "Doctor, can you please talk to the public as a representative? You are a scientific researcher who has been recognized by the government and participated in the No. 0 World Project. The public has a good understanding of you. Now my father's prestige is still there, What he did publicly has benefited many people, including some staunch supporters. He has the confidence not to respond."

"What do I need to do?" Lin Yu asked.

"They helped us make World No. 0 into a beautiful utopian fairy tale, and we will take advantage of it." Luo Shangan continued, "Little Qiao will reshuffle that world for people to live in."

"Isn't that the same as the previous No. 0 world?" Lin Yu frowned. "If the research institute is controlled, the new world will eventually fall into the hands of the army."

"Have you ever heard a piano?" Bei Qiao interjected.

"some."

"I used music codes to disperse the basic programs and databases of the New World to all devices that can receive communications, including storing them on the Internet. If they want to completely wipe out the New World, they must And the Internet is completely wiped, and the technology is set back 1000 years."

"It's obviously impossible." Lin Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

"Then let's prepare." Luo Shang'an said, "The dialogue will start in five minutes."

There was a hasty knock on the door of the office, and the secretary ran in, sweating profusely.

"Commander, it's not good, that doctor..."

Before he finished speaking, the image on the screen in the room suddenly changed, and Lin Yu's slightly depressed face appeared.

"No, see you..." The secretary spat out three words.

Lin Yu on the screen didn't say anything about what the army had ordered him to do. He only said one sentence at the beginning.

"Do you still remember "Utopia"?"

That utopia that once attracted the attention of all parties in the world, that world of lies that hides its dark core with its beautiful appearance, that fairy tale paradise that was destroyed by its creator.

"Now, it's back." Lin Yu said.

A soft and clever sentence.

All the introductions and explanations have been discarded. The pain caused by the disappearance of "Utopia" in the hearts of the people will never be erased.As long as this banner is played, thousands of words will be left behind.

Commander Luo's face was grim.

It is impossible for the army to deny the "Utopia" - they single-handedly launched this world back then. If they stood up and denied it, it would be equivalent to slapping themselves in the face.

In the black screen behind Lin Yu, the stars twinkle and light up, one point, one row, one piece, red, orange, cyan, the starry sky is laid out one after another.With the shadow of hope, the white velvet ball rises from the ground. When it kisses the starlight, it blooms like a flower, illuminating the entire darkness.

Then, the sun reappears, and the whole background becomes a sea of ​​light.The green grassland spreads out from the distant horizon, and under the blowing of the wind, it glows with layers of phosphorescence.Mountains, water, clouds, sky, everything is breathing freely.

They played the song of rebirth of the world.

The singing sounded far, far away.

Military boots marched upwards to the beat.

Finally, the colonel in dark blue military uniform stood still on the high platform, his overcoat was blown by the wind, and he looked at the world on the screen.

There was another sound of footsteps coming from below, and the colonel turned to look—the boy was standing firmly behind him.

The boy smiled and said: "It's really hard work, are you satisfied with this big show?"

The colonel responded with a smile: "You can contact them, please contact my brother, the military requests dialogue."

The boy didn't answer him directly, but after a while, the boy threw him a square box.

"Go ahead."

The colonel stroked the edge of the box, and after a long time called out: "Xiao An."

It took a long time for the other end of the communication to hear: "Brother."

"Turn on the comm video, let's talk," said the colonel.

The huge screen instantly split into two parts. This time, Bei Qiao was on one side and the colonel on the other.

The colonel said "Oh", "Aren't you going to listen to me say something else, just broadcast it to the whole world? Let me meet my brother..."

The next second, Bei Qiao interrupted the colonel.That person with sky blue clear eyes exuded a chilling aura from his whole body. "Colonel, time is tight. We are only accepting this one request from the military."

"Just what I want," said the colonel.

The voice was transmitted to all parts of the world along the communication broadcast, and people all over the world were paying attention to this conversation.

"We ask the military to withdraw the 'Whale Fall' plan and the Human Clearance Plan." Bei Qiao did not specify the content of the plan, but also left some leeway for the military in this negotiation.

but--

"I refuse." The colonel said, "resources are so precious, only the elite of the elite are worthy of survival, and not everyone can enter the dungeon if they want to. Why can't those low-level people who have not contributed for the purity and beauty of the world , die voluntarily? If you don’t want to, then let us help you.”

Bei Qiao's eyes paused on the colonel for a few seconds, and he frowned slightly.

But soon, Bei Qiao continued.

"We ask to restart "Utopia", but "Utopia" is independent of the world and absolutely not subject to the control of the military or the government. The military's plan can be transferred to the "Utopia" remodeling plan, and the new world can carry it With more than 50.00% of the population, underground cities and "ideal towns" coexist."

The colonel suddenly laughed, "It is impossible for us to agree to this kind of request. The world out of the control of the army is unstable, like a timed bomb that may backfire at any time. Why do we keep a bomb by our side?" ?”

"Just for this reason, you want to destroy two-thirds of the human beings in this world."

"Yes, sacrifices are inevitable for a better future," said the Colonel.

"Then we really have nothing to talk about." Bei Qiao finally came to such a conclusion.

As this conversation was spread, the whole world boiled again.

The mutiny first started from within the army—not everyone knew the truth of the plan. Although many low-level soldiers had obtained the qualifications to enter the dungeon, they had parents, wives and children, and their relatives did not obtain the qualifications. Into the scope of "purge".This means that they have been working hard, but in the end they are helping others to put a knife on the neck of their relatives.

The conversation on the screen was still going on, but the office was so quiet that it seemed as if the sound of a needle falling could be heard.

Commander Luo wiped his glasses rimmed with gold thread and put them back on.

"Commander," the secretary said with a desperate look on his face, "Colonel, he..."

Commander Luo was very calm. Ever since he saw his son's face appear on the screen, he never expressed any opinion. "I never thought that the person who cut off all my thoughts would be my own child." Commander Luo said slowly.

The secretary lowered his head.

"About seven years ago, Xiaogu tried to persuade me to let Xiaoan leave the army and go to college to study business. He said at the time that 'there is another way out for the family'. Hehe, it seems that he has been thinking about it since then. Well, today's ending. No... Or sooner, when he sold the piano at home and followed me to the army." Commander Luo's eyes were blank, "That's fine, that's fine. I'm really very happy. Tired, finally able to rest."

"commander?"

"Go out first, I want to be alone for a while."

The old order is being disrupted and new rules are being created.

The conversation has long since been cut off.

The situation has developed to such a point that it is impossible to solve the problem through peace talks, and a real winner must be determined.

The colonel heard the young man behind him say: "Someone is coming, they will go upstairs in a while, do you think they are here to arrest you? Who do these people represent? The people? The army? Justice?"

The colonel was silent.The boy continued to say: "Who do you want to be judged, Bei Qiao or Luo Shang'an?"

"None of them are qualified." The colonel tilted his head and smiled slightly. "No one can judge me, except myself."

"Oh..." The boy nodded thoughtfully, then raised his right hand, holding a small silver pistol in his hand, pointing the gun at the colonel.

There were noisy voices downstairs, intermittently.

"That guy is on top!" "Catch him down!" "Sentence him for crimes against humanity!" "Death penalty! Death penalty!"

"boom--"

A shot went off.

It seems that everything is still, only the bloody flowers blooming on the chest are whispering.The military coat swayed in an arc in the air, and the figure of the colonel, like a bird with broken wings, fell straight towards the roof.

"Goodbye, Luo Xingu." The boy said this, and then he slowly closed his eyes, staggered, and fell forward to the ground.

……

【Three years later】.

The wind blows a little fast on the top of the mountain.A white pigeon landed on a rock, and it turned its head to look at a human beside it.

It was a young man.

The young man was surrounded by blue light screens, and he seemed to be dealing with the problem very seriously.However, after about ten minutes or so, he resignedly pushed the screen away, sighed, and lay back on the ground.

Beside him stood another young man, looking at him with a smile on his lips.

"Ah——Lolo, you know I'm joking." Bei Qiao pulled up Luo Shang'an's trousers with some dissatisfaction, "I work 365/[-]! I don't even have a bonus! You can't hire someone Someone to do this for me? How about we take a vacation every once in a while."

Luo Shangan squatted down and looked at him with interest, "Want me to coax you?"

"It's never good for you to coax me!" Bei Qiao said angrily, "You will be the person in charge of "Utopia" in the future, not me."

"Okay, what's wrong with it, it's giving you such a headache."

"I fixed a bug."

"Oh, and then what?"

"Then more than 100 bugs broke out!!! It was running fine before, but I don't know why it became like this."

"Or we can contact Lin Yu in the dungeon and ask him to interrupt the communication and restart. You can reset this part of the content." Luo Shang'an said patiently.

"No." Bei Qiao was a little frustrated, "There are already a lot of people living there. If I ask them to store their mental bodies and move out, I will be complained. If I am complained, my authority will be lowered. Look... Originally, I was The highest authority management, in the past three years, my authority value is almost one-fifth lower than yours!"

"Hmm... Do you have any dissatisfaction?" Luo Shangan approached Bei Qiao and stared into his eyes.

The kiss fell gently, accompanied by the fresh air and the distant smell of rice.

The white dove spread its wings and took off. It crossed the mountains, the flowing streams, and the green wilderness that could not be seen at a glance.

It disappears at the end of the sunny day.

The author has something to say: Thank you for your company all the way, may the phantom of Utopia never be shattered, may happiness come to this land in the end, and ideals and love will be preserved forever.
