Devil's Playground

"Obviously, you are still alive." Lin Yu said expressionlessly, "So, are you lying?"

"Don't be serious about adjectives!" Rick shook his fingers exaggeratedly, "The only advantage of our race is that we don't lie. The accusation of lying is the greatest insult and slander to us!"

"So what? Are you going to duel with me?" Lin Yu asked softly while adjusting the position of King Guang who was in his arms.

Yang Jin noticed his movements, and casually remembered that Lin Yu had been holding King Guang in his arms all the time, that soft and delicate movements were like a little girl holding a doll.

——What the hell are you doing?

Yang Jin became more and more suspicious.

Lin Yu's actions also caught Ruoke's attention, and his gaze fell on King Guang.

"Did you take out the mimetic alloy?" Sulker asked in amazement, then frowned, "How did you make this weird thing, or do you like that movie... Terminator?"

——Ru Ke doesn't know the King of Light? !

Yang Jin couldn't help being taken aback.

"It was arranged by e." Lin Yu replied speciously, then touched Guangwang's silvery white face, raised his head and asked Rick, "Who are you?"

"Huh?" Both Liu Ke and Yang Jin were taken aback.

"Maybe I should change the question." Lin Yu continued, "What is the Rick we summoned in the battlefield mission?"

Yang Jin was stunned for a moment and realized that Ru Ke and Guang Wang had been together in Caiguo for more than a month, and it was impossible that they would not recognize each other when they met again.

Liuk was stunned for a long time, and after a while he put away his strange face, chattering and laughing, "Did I show my feet?"

Lin Yu shrugged and did not answer.

"Oh, I see, you used the soul stone to summon me during the mission in the field." Rick said affirmatively, "And the 'I' over there has seen this little toy made of mimic alloy in your arms."

"Are you a fake over there?" Lin Yu frowned, and then denied his first guess, "No, e knows you well, if it's a fake, it won't be unaware, and..."

"What else?" Rick asked sensitively.

"Guess?" Lin Yu laughed maliciously.

Ruk seemed to have thought of something, and his face became very ugly.

"It seems that you guessed it." Lin Yu's smile was a little more curious, "What is the Rick you sent to us? A clone, or a copy? If you can fool e, it must not be an imposter. Simple."

"I prefer to call it a copy." Rick was unexpectedly not perfunctory, "If you want to call it a copy, there is nothing wrong with it, it is indeed an intelligent copy created by copying my memory and personality. "

"May I ask why you did this?" Lin Yu put away his smile and looked at Rick seriously, "Also, the strangest thing to me is why you don't know what happened to us in the field mission, don't you Didn't the copy of that tell you what happened over there?"

"You have a saying that when a fake is true, it is true." Rick grinned, "Actually, my smart copy was already hidden in the mimic alloy I gave you before you started the battlefield mission. Summoning is just to wake it up from a dormant state. However, neither you nor the copy itself knows that it is a copy, it thinks it is me, and naturally it will not think of giving me a tip-off. Of course, this is also not There is a way, who made the e guy too sensitive to space fluctuations, but if there is a slight change in my copy, it will inevitably be vigilant. Therefore, I can only play the whole set, and even deceive 'myself'."

Speaking of this, Rick shrugged, "As for why you did this, of course it is because of what you are seeing now."

"What do you want to do?" Lin Yu frowned.

"What to do? Of course it's... a game!" Rick let out his classic chattering laugh again, "I built this playground just to play games, but e they use it as a training base for reserve sergeants! This is simply Violence!"

"That is to say, the mission of returning to Earth... is also a game?" Lin Yu frowned even more tightly.

"What do you think?" Rick smiled.

Seeing that Liu Ke obviously didn't intend to tell them the truth, Lin Yu didn't bother to ask any more, but instead asked: "It seems that you don't intend to 'help' us anymore."

"Why do you think I have been chatting with you so patiently for so long? Of course it is because there will be no future!" Liu Ke laughed loudly, and then turned to look at Yang Jin, "Hey, Contractor, This may be the last time we meet, don't you want to express your thoughts?"

"Eh?" Yang Jin was still pondering the complex relationship between Ruke, Dungeon and e, and he was taken aback for a moment before realizing that Ruke was talking to him. He looked up at Ruke, thought for a while, and realized that he wanted to say the most The words are actually "it's easy to leave but not to see you off".

But saying such words is simply to provoke hatred. Yang Jin decided to be more rational and realistic, so he asked, "Can I ask a few more questions?"

"Of course." Liuk immediately replied, "I'm about to leave, how could I not satisfy you even with this little request?"

"Why did you choose me as the contractor?" Yang Jin asked.

Yang Jin has always been curious about this point.Although e has answered it once, the answer is specious, and Yang Jin feels like 11=2—everyone knows that 11=2, but why is it equal to 2 instead of 3?Mathematicians seem to have analyzed cause and effect, but what Yang Jin wants to know is the answer from philosophers.

Hearing Yang Jin's question, Liu Ke shrugged, "E has already delivered the bait to my mouth, if I don't eat it, won't it make him sad?"

"Bait?" Yang Jin had expected such an answer, but when he heard it with his own ears, he still felt unavoidable.

"The bait that tempts me to appear." There was a hint of pampering on Rick's face, but it quickly passed by, "I'd better say a little more—if you have already summoned my copy , then he should have told you about the relationship between me and your home planet Earth?"

"I mentioned a little bit, not much." Yang Jin replied.

"Since it's mentioned, you must know how cunning and vicious your home planet is... Well, the word vicious is not suitable enough, it should be replaced with vicious." Rick rubbed his chin and continued, "I am The second person who discovered the earth... well, how should I introduce it? If our race is translated into the language on the earth, it probably can only correspond to the word "ultimate life body", and our country can only be translated into...empire. Anyway—well, would you like to hear me speak a little longer?"

——If you want to say it, just say it!

Yang Jin tried his best to control the twitching of the corner of his mouth, and raised his hand in a gesture of "please feel free".

Rick immediately said: "This matter also starts with the relationship between me and e. e is the investigator of the empire, similar to the fbi of a certain country here, that is, a member of the violent agency that controls internal members of the country .As for me, I am somewhat similar to the terrorists on your planet, but I am more capable."

Yang Jin has never been very curious about details. When reading proposals and reports, he prefers to read the final summary statement rather than the specific detailed statement. However, he squinted at Lin Yu and saw that he was listening to With relish, he endured his impatience, closed his mouth, and patiently listened to Rick.

"One of the things I was most proud of was keeping the longest wanted record in the criminal history of the empire, and I was not arrested until...e entered the investigation bureau." Liu Ke sighed faintly, and sighed Yang Jin out of goosebumps "Actually, e's ability to handle cases is not very strong, but his ability to travel through space is very talented, even I can hardly match it. I thought I had seen through the whole set he set for me, so I boldly drilled into it." When I went in, I didn't expect that the trap was just a trap, and the real trump card was actually himself... It was a magical experience that was not so wonderful, but memorable."

"You were caught by him?" Yang Jin couldn't help but make a conclusion.

"Yeah." Rick said with emotion, "I thought there would be enough time to escape after triggering the trap, but I didn't expect that e's speed was far beyond my imagination, and I was trapped in his space trap in a blink of an eye. No The only way, I can only catch it with nothing."

Liuke talked about it and the e-story, but it can be summed up in one sentence: if you don't fight, you don't know each other, and then you fall in love and kill each other.

e successfully captured Rick, which aroused Rick's interest.During the return journey and the later interrogation process, Ruoke tried every means to get close to e, only willing to communicate with e, and ignored the inquiries of other tribesmen.When e accepted the interrogation under pressure, Rick did not confess his crime, and spent all the time the two "people" got together flirting, and even pursued e cheekily.

e turns a blind eye to all kinds of behaviors of Rick, no matter how coquettish Rick is, it only asks step by step, whether Rick answers or not, it will not have the slightest influence on it.

The two stalemate until Judgment Day. At this time, Rick uses his long-planned big move—alibi—to absolve himself of guilt.

From the inside and outside of Ruoke's words, it can be heard that it simply treats crime as entertainment, so as to fight wits and courage with its own people.But their race's definition of "crime" is very different from that of the earth. In the eyes of humans like Yang Jin, their crimes are not so much crimes as bad rules, breaking the accepted code of conduct, but massacres and looting are reasonable legal.Moreover, as Yang Jin and Lin Yu guessed before, the death penalty does not exist in their countries, and the most serious crime is life imprisonment, and the more serious crime is long-distance exile.

Before committing the crime, Rick had prepared a way out for himself and used the copy to create an alibi for himself.After being arrested, Rick was not in a hurry to clear himself of the charges, but seized all the time to get along with e, and did not throw out the evidence used to exonerate him until he went to the trial stand, which caught the judges by surprise.

Rick's race is very, very "rule-oriented". In the absence of sufficient evidence to confirm that Rick is the criminal, Rick was finally acquitted.

After regaining his freedom, Rick immediately launched a formal pursuit of e, but e unexpectedly did not refuse.

After coming and going, the two "people" have formed a substantial partnership.

But Jiangshan is easy to change, and nature is hard to change. Just as dogs cannot change eating shit, cats cannot change stealing fish, and it is difficult for Rick to give up his bad habit of breaking the rules.Just when the acquaintances around him thought that the two of them were about to form a formal partnership, and the empire would add a romantic story, Rick did a big job in the central galaxy, destroying the intelligent control center of the central galaxy, and then, Get away.
