My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 804 - 404: Moonlight, Confessions, Su Zimai’s Questions
"Tell me everything clearly, what is really going on here." Su Zimai leaned on his shoulder and said in a low voice.
"Alright, alright. But can your brain really comprehend it?"
"I'm getting angry."
Gu Wenyu pondered, "Let me think, where should I start."
"At the train station earlier, you mentioned the name 'Xia Pingzhou'..." Su Zimai lowered her eyes, hesitating to continue.
"Yes, what's the matter?" Gu Wenyu asked.
"But wasn't he the one from the White Crow Travel Brigade?" Su Zimai raised her head and finally couldn't help but ask.
"He used to be, but not anymore."
"What do you mean?" Su Zimai was puzzled.
"Xia Pingzhou defected from the brigade."
Su Zimai was stunned.
"Let's not worry about all this mess." Su Zimai shook her head, "Why did you say he was you? At first, I thought I heard wrong."
"Do you really want to know?" Gu Wenyu was silent for a moment before asking.
"Yes, otherwise what's the point of you kidnapping me? With my capabilities, if I wanted to escape, I'd have done so already." Su Zimai joked, "This is what you call deep infiltration into enemy territory."
"Alright, alright, you're the best."
"Good to know, now answer my question."
Gu Wenyu said, "Xia Pingzhou is just one of my bodies."
"Bodies?"
Su Zimai was stunned, turning her head to stare at Gu Wenyu's cheek, slowly recalling her previous encounters with Xia Pingzhou.
The first time was at the Tokyo Auction, then if Xia Pingzhou hadn't gone easy on her, she might have died already—if Xia Pingzhou hadn't targeted her, that ninja from the brigade would have, and she was no match for that ninja;
The second time was in an underground bar in London, where she met those Salvation Society kids and was escaping in the Jurassic Century world with Xia Pingzhou.
Similarly, if it weren't for Xia Pingzhou's help, she might have been swallowed by that blonde-haired kid's dinosaur by now.
And after these events in London, the Ghost Train Corps ended up being targeted by the Salvation Society, leading to Lin Zhengquan's death...
Su Zimai suddenly recalled how, the night before her departure, Gu Wenyu, all emotional, insisted she stay. But she didn't listen.
"So, it really is you..." she murmured.
Gu Wenyu asked again, "Do you remember those kids we saw in London?"
"Yes."
Su Zimai nodded slowly.
Gu Wenyu continued, "One of those kids was me."
"Huh?"
Su Zimai was taken aback.
"The one... with the white-haired little girl, who looked too weak to even kill a chicken..." Gu Wenyu thought for a moment, then gave up on describing further, "Well, just the one who looked the weakest among them is me."
Su Zimai blinked, utterly stunned, unable to say a word.
She slowly lowered her head, recalling the faces of those kids in hospital gowns at the underground bar, the impression already blurry, but she indeed remembered a boy always holding a white-haired girl, his eyes as cautious as a young wolf.
After a long while, Gu Wenyu let out a low sigh.
He lowered his head, troubled, "I told you, with your mind, you wouldn't be able to grasp the situation, better not tell you, easier for me."
Su Zimai paused and then earnestly frowned and said:
"No, I want to hear it."
"Nothing worth hearing, just give up."
Su Zimai stayed silent, and so did Gu Wenyu.
Slowly, Su Zimai's eyes turned red again.
"You always do this."
In the silence, she spoke softly.
"Do what?" Gu Wenyu turned his head and saw the tear flowing from her eye, suddenly freezing.
Su Zimai slowly said, "You always keep everything to yourself, never willing to clarify, always making me sad."
Lowering her voice, she said brokenly, "Yes, I am stupid... I am not as smart as you... bullied by you since childhood. But... as long as you tell me nicely, I will definitely understand."
Gu Wenyu paused for a moment, then lowered his eyes, looking at the brightly lit city.
He said, "Suppose there is a very powerful superpower user whose ability is to create an artificial person, making people remember and accept him. People around him would have false memories because of him, how would you think then?"
Su Zimai shook her head.
Gu Wenyu continued, "Gu Wenyu is an artificial person, merely a product of superpower. Actually, your brother never existed from the beginning."
Su Zimai slightly frowned, subconsciously wanting to refute his words.
But in the end, she held back.
Gu Wenyu was silent for a moment, slowly raising his eyes.
He looked at the koi kites rising towards the sky from the long street, wobbling into the night under the neon lights.
"In short, this all starts with a twelve-year-old child being captured into an experiment facility..."
.....
.....
"Restricted-level Superpower User, number 1002—Ji Minghuan, Mentor's visit, make preparations immediately."
That night, Ji Minghuan once again heard the familiar cold prompt, so he yawned, slowly opened his eyes, and stared blankly at the ceiling for a while.
The final deadline was approaching, but he still wasn't sure what counter-measures the Salvation Society would take. Perhaps, they might get desperate and try to harm his main body.
His situation was no longer safe.
Thinking of this, Ji Minghuan slowly sat up from the bed, turning his head toward the exit of the confinement room.
The metallic door was slowly opening, and bright light from the corridor flooded into this silver-white world.
At that moment, a blurry figure stood in the light, clad in a white coat, with hands clasped behind his back, glasses reflecting a faint glimmer.
After a while, the mentor slowly stepped in, and the door of the confinement room closed behind him.
The mentor's face appeared somewhat grim, unlike his usual gentle demeanor. He pulled a chair to the table and sat down.
"What's the matter?"
"Sit down first."
"How annoying, can you not disturb someone's peaceful sleep if it's not important?" Ji Minghuan said as he got out of bed barefoot, pulling a chair over and sitting down.
The mentor remained silent.
Ji Minghuan quietly tapped the tabletop with his fingers, occasionally glancing at the mentor.
He thought that the mentor didn't mention the Lake Hunting matter because he felt guilty, guilty about "using Kong Youling's ability to brainwash Zhou Jiuya and Zhong Wujiu from Lake Hunting."
Thinking of this, Ji Minghuan couldn't help but chuckle softly and asked:
"What's wrong with you, silent for so long, have you encountered some good fortune?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"Ji Minghuan, the Artificial People project we mentioned earlier has been successful," the mentor suddenly said.
"Artificial People... successful?"
Ji Minghuan raised an eyebrow, slowly lifting his eyes to meet his gaze.
