Chapter 4: The Road Crossing
【New, do you think so.】
"Indeed." Shang Luo subconsciously followed.
【.】
"."
Shangluo was frozen in place, and something seemed to be wrong. It seemed that something was talking just now?
An inexplicable feeling surged up, but it seemed like an illusion. This was even completely different from the situation when I felt the generators before - this time it was not an ambiguous flashback clip, but a clear and clear sound. And he could be sure that it was not his own voice.
"Who are you?" he asked subconsciously.
【.】
A breath could be heard, but there was no response.
"Mr. Xiao Shang? What are you talking about?" Jefferson next to him asked.
"Ah, it's okay, I heard it wrong."
[No, no, no, no! You heard it right! It turns out that I can really hear it! I thought it was my illusion!]
Just like a drowning man grabbed the life-saving straw, the voice suddenly popped out, afraid that Shangluo would not listen to her. Before Shangluo could reply, she immediately continued:
[Help me! I've had enough of these nonsense guys. They only accept the results they want. Once they fail, they will divine repeatedly. I'm almost annoyed by them! You can hear my voice, right?! Can you hear it? Do me a favor! Please! Just recite silently, you don't need to speak.]
"Why should I help you? Are you a monster?" Shang Luo said silently in his heart.
[What is before you is the infinite divine machine "Apollonia". The creator of destiny, the pioneer of future, the divine machine of light and prophecy, the wisest of the divine machine, and the eternal of the wisest of the wise.]
"I can't fit so many people in my home."
[Okay, okay! I am Apollonia, Apollonia is me. An unlucky guy who needs help, and you are the only person who can hear me. I need your help.]
"Wait a minute, you haven't explained why I want to help you."
[As you can see, the tricks of throwing coins just now come from my power. But these fools only play magician tricks, and they don’t know what the real miracle is - for example, now I can help you escape. Do you believe it or not, they actually have no intention of letting you leave alive, there are killers outside now. If you don’t believe it, you can find an excuse to say you want to go out. Otherwise - Shangluo, use urine escape!]
This line has an inexplicable sense of familiarity, which makes him feel a little strange. However, Shangluo decided to give it a try because he really couldn't believe in these barbarians.
He raised his head and asked, "Luojia, where is the toilet?"
Jefferson still had a smile on his face: "Oh, Mr. Xiao Shang, the matter here will be over soon. Otherwise, I will teach you how to use miracles now? Or I will divine your destiny?"
“But I really want to go to the bathroom now”
"Please wait a moment. It will be over in a short while." Jefferson stood up, his face a little unhappy.
[What I said just now! He doesn't want you to leave this room at all! Do you believe it now?]
"What should I do now?" He solicited opinions from the mysterious voice who called himself "Apollonia".
[Divine first. Divination can determine your destiny through observation, and then we will decide the path.]
"good."
The cards were right in front of him, and Shangluo drew two.
Two clowns were smiling at him. One was the king and the other was the little king.
"What does it mean to draw the big and big kings?"
[What else can it mean? King Blast! There are no taboos, just rush out!]
"Is there a king bomb in the tarot card??"
[I said there is, there is no taboo! There is no taboo! It's all over. Otherwise, you're going to sit here and wait for death? The twenty or so gunmen outside are real.]
"Okay. Then should I go straight to the rush or do some preparations?" Shang Luo hadn't lived enough, so he didn't want to die here.
[There is a pistol in the first drawer on the left side of his desk. Perhaps bringing that gun can make you feel more at ease. There is a music box placed with the pistol, which is my body. Bring these two things and rush out immediately.]
"Mr. Xiao Shang?" Jefferson asked again, "Why are you standing still? Check if there is any problem. Stop! Why are you going in!"
Shang Luo walked towards the desk without saying a word, then stretched out his hand to the first drawer on the left-
"Hey, what are you doing!" Jefferson knew what was there than anyone else and rushed up to intercept it. But Shang Luo was closer to the table, and he opened the drawer and there was indeed a pistol inside.
A silver pistol.
The 0.50-mm self-defense pistol "Gladius" is a standard equipment for the Roman Army. However, unlike other Roman weapons that have regiment badges printed on it, there is no mark on this pistol that can prove the identity of the user.
The insurance has been unlocked, and the pistol is ready to be fired, just to take it out and shoot at any time. But when Shangluo's hand touched the gun, the gun itself seemed to provide more information.
A box-shaped white music box also lay quietly beside the pistol.
"You said, there are no taboos, right? I will never die no matter what?" Shangluo made the final confirmation.
[Yes, once fate is observed, it is determined, just like before you can guess correctly 15 times in a row. Now you have no taboos. Hey! What are you doing! Where are you pointing at?]
When he touched the gun, he had already figured out the situation of the gun. However, the person in front of him didn't know.
"Well... there are no taboos, right?"
Facing Jefferson, Shangluo looked at him with a smile.
"What are you going to do?"
Shangluo raised his pistol, pointed it at his temple, and pulled the trigger.
With a "click", he heard the sound of hammers hitting. This mechanical movement was often directly covered by the sound of gunpowder ignition. However, now he could hear it clearly.
Jefferson heard it too. He was shocked.
"You just got the King and the King... and then said 'No Taboo'." Jefferson's voice began to tremble, "Can you talk to the angels? Is the angels providing you with additional protection!"
"That's right, that's right." Shang Luo walked over step by step - he reached out and picked up the deck of playing cards.
"Lend your cards for use."
Shangluo walked out the door, staying there and talking to himself, Jefferson did not stop him.
Outside the door, the door opened with a creaking sound. Shangluo walked out slowly.
Sure enough, there were twenty-four gunmen outside, no more or less. They all squatted in the corner of the wall, leaving a road in the middle.
Shangluo walked out of the door, turned around and gently brought the door.
"Thank you for your hard work." He nodded to everyone, and then walked through the middle with a swagger, as if he was working here.
Among the more than 20 people, several people returned the gift, and most of them held their guns and stood against the wall. But no one reached out to stop them, and no one even watched Shangluo leave their sight. After all, Senator Jefferson did not give an order.
After walking two steps, I reached the T-junction of the tunnel, and there was a fork in front of me.
"Well, men left and women right, so go to the left."
He turned to the left and ran into Franklin who had previously sent him in.
Franklin was walking through the corridor with an orange carton in his arms. He was shocked when he saw Shangluo, because Shangluo obviously shouldn't have appeared here at this time:
"Why are you out? Hello, I'm talking to you, why are you out? Come back!" He tilted his head and poked his head out from behind the cardboard box, but Shangluo walked forward regardless of the matter. He carried playing cards in his left pocket, and the music box in his right pocket, moving slowly in the corridor like a walk.
"Hey hey!" After calling twice, Franklin threw the orange cardboard box directly to the ground. He walked to the door of the Senator's office in three or two steps: "Come on! Catch him! Catch him back!"
The 24 gunmen glanced at him, but were still unmoved, just stood there quietly with the gun in his arms.
"Hey! Do you know that you have let go of the most important person? You don't want to live!"
"Stop shouting." Jefferson pulled the door from inside and stood at the door. "They don't understand your official language. These soldiers recruited from London are different from you. They only speak English."
"Senator, he ran away! Hurry up and let these people catch him back!"
"You can't stop him." Jefferson shook his head, "Ange is protecting him, but if you can't stop him, let him go and leave us some decent."
"His Excellency Senator, we finally invited him. Are you watching him leave so much? It's ridiculous!"
"Okay." Jefferson sighed, "After all this, I still can't accept my fate. Human beings are always struggling in vain."
He cleared his throat and issued a chasing order in English.
[You scared him just now.] Apollonia made a sound, but there was no echo in the narrow corridor.
Shangluo can be sure that this sound may not exist physically.
"But I didn't scare me, I wouldn't just do anything to my life. The gun told me that it had stuck, and I just scared him. I can't believe whatever you say unconditionally."
[No wonder you can talk to me and you can feel the simple consciousness on a simple mechanical basis. Then, in me, you should be able to feel the "infinity".]
"Infinite? What is that?"
[It's nothing, you can escape quickly and talk about it. Someone is chasing me from behind.] Apollonia reminded.
The dense footsteps rang out from behind. The underground stronghold was actually not big, and it was only a matter of time to find him.
"Is the ban on no taboos you just mentioned useful? There is a fork in front of you now, so I can do whatever I want?"
[You can indeed be more casual, but fate may have a different view of "no taboos" than you. After all, no taboos can guarantee that you are alive, but whether your body can be intact...]
