Chapter 21

Since that incident happened, Wu Lin slept for the first time for a long time. Although she was still awakened, but when she woke up, she found that it was already daytime outside for the first time, and she was not so tired all over her body, let alone Symptoms from being in John's car that day.

The first thing I did was look at the watch beside my pillow, it was ten o'clock in the morning.

The second thing is of course to check the phone to see if there are any missed text messages or calls.The result is no.Wu Lin put a contented smile on her lips, lay lazily on the bed, turned several times, and then remembered the injury on John's leg.She bit her lip. To be honest, guilt is certain, and gratitude is also there, but...for the time being, she doesn't want to see him at all!

Now she will return to the days of wasting her brain cells every day!Especially for John, who obviously knew much more than he said he knew, he always felt that he was simply weak.Wu Lin couldn't help but think of yesterday's "confession".She can only say that it is roughly correct, and she has concealed a little bit about the small details.

Like...it wasn't actually the bomb inside her that made her succumb.Although she didn't know there was a bomb when she accepted this mission, she did know that she had a tracker on her body so that people who came over in the future could find her.And when she knew about the bomb... She didn't give in.However, after that, she knew that she couldn't take out the tracker/detonator. Once there was no sign of her life, the detonator would detonate automatically.

Another example...she found that her feelings for John's Finch were not as easy to let go as she imagined, especially...they were almost the only two people she really came into contact with after coming to this world, and the third person she had contact with within two years. as a friend.When their lives were threatened, she would do anything to keep them safe.However, don't tell them about this.

What gave her a headache was how to explain her return to John and Finch, she couldn't tell them directly, if it wasn't for her, it could only be another demon who forced a confession.Moreover, she was [-]% sure that neither John nor Finch would give up the machine information they knew because of physical threats.

She and Peter felt that John and Finch definitely knew more about that demon than anyone else.

What made her even more troublesome was how to keep this balance?John's Finch knows it, and he has to tell her slowly, how to keep John's Finch from making the devil want to torture himself, and make them feel that she doesn't have any stereotypes. It is necessary after getting familiar with her. A step of?

hateful……

Wu Lin scratched her messy hair, she had to think about it now.But... how fast are they not suspicious without putting them in danger?

Suddenly, she sat up and decided to make herself something to eat.It's always going to get better.The boat goes straight to the bridge, doesn't it?Wu Lin couldn't figure out how to be "quick", so she could only hope that she would have time.As for why she came back...or did she just say that she was doing it for the machine?Anyway, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible for them not to know...

Wu Lin was bored surfing the Internet to see if she had any inspirations, especially spy ones.So, Google is a good friend.After Wu Lin rummaged through all the information, she gradually formed a barely explainable explanation.Barely...really barely...

Rubbing her temples, which were starting to ache again, Wu Lin felt that she was simply too weak... Especially for someone like John, she was simply not good enough!And she had to keep his interest with her, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get anything out!She's seductive | forget it!

Well... She thought about it for half a second, and finally crossed out the idea of ​​sex | seduction.First, she has no capital.Second, does John seem like someone who can be seduced by sex?Third, she instinctively rejected the idea.

As if to vent her anger, Wu Lin slammed the door and went out after getting dressed. She had to find something to eat. She felt uncomfortable after patronizing her a few days ago, and she hadn't had a good meal for several days.hungry.After the so-called heart knot is slowly untied, everything becomes cleaner.

She still can't forgive what she did, but... the matter is over, she has done what she did, no matter how entangled or sad, it should be put aside.Instead of letting herself be immersed in a state of self-abandonment, she might as well do something more meaningful, such as helping Finch and John save people, such as minimizing the danger of John and Finch.Although this cannot make up for her regret [-]%, it is better than nothing.At least... she can no longer lose the chain at a critical moment.

In the afternoon, Wu Lin still couldn't ignore her guilt, so she arranged a first-aid kit outside and knocked on John's door.Seeing John limping, Wu Lin wanted to laugh. She walked over and supported John naturally. John just froze for a moment but didn't respond, and let Wu Lin play around.

John was wearing a gray T-shirt and sweatpants that were the same gray but darker.After Wu Lin helped the man to the sofa, she opened the first aid kit and changed the bandage for John.The two didn't speak. Wu Lin thought that John would ask why she came back, but John didn't ask.This caused Wu Lin to feel itchy in her heart, and she almost blurted out that she came back because of the unreliable reason that "the person she killed was the boss of a gangster".

Biting her lips dejectedly, looking at John's still indifferent face, she couldn't help but wonder whether he wanted to know or not!

Is it better to be frank?Or is it better to resist and be strict?Should she explain that her mission is a machine?If they don't explain it, John and the others will definitely find out in the end. If they find out, will they not let her stay with them?

Wu Lin didn't realize at all that she could be distracted by John's side without any pressure. Even after experiencing the paranoia that had trained her to be persecuted, she still subconsciously believed that John would not have any harm to her. Danger.She didn't even realize that after she mechanically bandaged it herself, she hurt John.

When John saw Wu Lin's state of being distracted and hesitant to speak, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. His move was indeed effective. As Sun Tzu said in Art of War (Note 21), what is false is false, and suspicion arises.He purposely didn't ask, so that Wu Lin couldn't help but ask, either to confess, or to test, or... Maybe he would hear a completely unreliable story?

After watching Wu Lin slowly come back, John's face became serious again. Wu Lin opened her mouth and was about to speak when the phone rang in their ears.Wu Lin immediately shut up and turned on the phone. It was Finch.

"New number, are you ready to go to your honeymoon room?"

"what?"

Wu Lin's surprised look obviously entertained John. The corners of his mouth became more and more curved, and he looked angry: "Why, do you want to regret the marriage?"

"I don't know who wants to regret the marriage!"

Wu Lin quickly recovered, raised her eyebrows, looked at John provocatively, and raised her hand to give John's calf a hard blow, but finally stood up and hit John on the shoulder without making a move.

Finch over there finally said: "Mr. Hayes and Ms. Hayes, the quarrel between lovers should go to the honeymoon room."

Wu Lin and John shut up at the same time, looked at each other and smiled, and John became serious: "Address?"

"238 B Street, Apartment, Room 5, 511th Floor, Wheelchair Accessible."

****238 B STREET APARTMENT****

"...he will never shut up."

The corner of Wu Lin's mouth twitched a little as she looked at the "suspect" who had just left. He was the manager of this apartment, Ernest P. Chask.This Mr. Chasker was there talking all the time, introducing the apartment, asking why John was in a wheelchair, how she and John met, or how he used to have six nightclubs in Miami, mansions by the sea and pet tigers, blah blah blah some type of.This reminds Wu Lin of a character well-known to Chinese people: Tang Seng.Speaking of which, she hasn't watched that movie for a long time, maybe drag Finch and John some other day to watch one of her favorite classics together?But she still doesn't know if there is this movie here.

"Maybe that's why he got into trouble?"

John tilted his head, Wu Lin couldn't help but chuckle with a serious look on his face.Finch slowly walked out from the dark part of the room: "You can never underestimate the importance of keeping your mouth shut."

Wu Lin shrugged: "Well, do you have any information?"

Finch began to introduce the basic information of this person: [born in Goodland, Florida, population 394.There are no nightclubs, mansions, and no pet tigers.Not sure where the threat came from, but he had been a caretaker for 14 years and lived and worked in the same place, so the crime scene must have been in the apartment, and there were 241 people in the apartment. 】

When John and Finch were talking, Wu Lin suddenly felt that she couldn't get in her mouth at all. The tacit understanding she had cultivated was a bit sad, but it should be a good thing for her.After all, if they said it smoothly, they would reveal what only they would say, and she would be able to know more things by the way.

Finch did some research before coming, [he found that Chesk called three pawn shops last week, that kind of shop specializes in selling pistols that are difficult to trace without registration, so it is very likely that Chesk is the murderer].However, maybe he already knew he was in trouble, so he bought a |gun to defend himself.

Wu Lin still didn't interrupt, Finch turned on the computer, even though it was such a temporary "headquarters", Finch still configured several monitors.He quickly [hacked into the nanny monitor, security system, laptop network, and turned these into their eyes and ears, at this very moment], Wu Lin heard a very important message.

John said: "[It's like a machine.]"

Suddenly, Wu Lin felt as if she had opened a door.

Finch's voice sounded a little erratic, while Wu Lin's was still leaning against the wall, listening carefully: "[Foreign, if you imagine an apartment as the whole world.]"

It turned out to be the case.

It really is the same thing as Skynet!But it has a wider range of uses than Skynet. With so many channels for obtaining information, it's no wonder that it can accurately find out all the people involved in trouble.Then such an intelligence network is definitely not only used by the two of them, it will also be used by the government|government.This can also explain why she was hunted down, and they must not let others know their identities.

So... It was probably the reason for keeping her by my side in the first place.In other words, even if she didn't say anything about the reason for her return this time, they would definitely not let her go.

It's good, so she probably doesn't have to bother thinking about any plots to stay, as long as there is any one that makes sense, she should be able to stay.

So what kind of system is a machine?

With such a huge intelligence system as the basis, if Finch and John are a branch of the main program, then she can conclude that this system is definitely used to analyze intelligence.What intelligence to analyze?The United States, intelligence, violence, it seems... something is connected.

Note 21: He really watched Sun Tzu's Art of War...kneeling...everyone understands...

The author has something to say: La la la~ Wu Lin finally returned to normal~ Sahua~
