Chapter 260 Face

Who is she?

Her name is also "Xia Ye", but "Xia Ye" is not a rare name. Maybe she is indeed related to Sir Xia Ye, but it may also be just a coincidence. This is not the most important issue.

The important thing is, first of all, she cannot be Lady Xia Ye, this is obvious. It's not just a matter of appearance. Just listen to a few sentences of her speech and observe her movements and demeanor for a moment, and you can easily come to the conclusion that this is a guy with a flamboyant personality and a strong personality, and (at least on the surface (Get up) The gentle and restrained Natsuye-sama is completely different.

Then, more questions arise from this:

Why does Sir Xia Ye's body appear here?

How does it connect to another person's head, become that other person, and move around?

Does "Aether Prospecting" know about this? Or is this simply some kind of weird experiment they are conducting?

If that was the case, why would the city lord agree? Her affection for her sister was there for all to see that day, and I don't think she would have allowed it without some extremely special reason.

Ever since I discovered that the person in front of me was using Sir Xia Ye's body, my mind was no longer on the speech. Although judging from the reactions from around me, it seemed to be a very successful speech, but I had no time to care about it.

These questions are like the heads that flew out of the accelerator that day, surrounding me, circling, dangerous, strange, but fascinating...

If all unreasonable assumptions are eliminated, then...

There is still one hypothesis left there. It has been there since a long time ago, but I have long thrown it into the corner and ignored it. It is only now that I finally noticed its existence again.

A special feeling crawled up my spine. It wasn't until it took over my body that I remembered that I was actually not unfamiliar with it. During the period shortly after Isom's death about two years ago, I've experienced it before, and it's a wonderful mixture of fear and excitement.

After the speech, I didn’t have enough courage to get close to the “person” using Lady Xia Ye’s body. Who knows who she was, if she noticed my thoughts, she would kill me when I got close. What should I do if it falls?

As in the past, I am a person who is afraid of death.

Just when I was debating whether I should get involved in danger, danger came to me.

This is the so-called "what you are afraid of will come to you", right?

Just the day before yesterday, with the mentality that there is no harm in giving it a try, I contacted a security company and asked them to investigate whether anyone was secretly investigating me or "Mos Bio" recently.

Originally, I was just on the safe side, but unexpectedly, I received feedback this morning - someone is indeed investigating "Moshi Biology".

When I asked for more information, the security company said that they could neither confirm the other party's identity nor when they started investigating. Obviously, the other party was also a professional.

Although there is no evidence, my intuition tells me that it is the person also named "Xia Ye" who is secretly investigating "Mo's Creatures".

Thinking of this, I suddenly turned my head and looked out the window, as if the other party was peering at me through this window... Of course this was just a delusion. I didn't see anything unusual, only people coming and going, riding brooms on high buildings. shuttle between.

After a night of thinking, I feel more and more that that hypothesis is correct. Although it seems very incredible, if other hypotheses are all more unreasonable than it, and new emerging facts indirectly prove its correctness, then, I can no longer ignore this assumption——

Is it possible that Sir Xia Ye's experiment a year ago did not fail, but succeeded, at least partially?

Previously, many people, including me, believed that the experiment failed. The reason was obvious - Lord Xia Ye, a key figure, died on the spot. No matter how you look at it, this cannot be a sign of success. In addition, judging from the subsequent leaks, Master Xia Ye seems to have severe delusions. Therefore, this experiment designed based on delusions probably had no possibility of success from the beginning.

But now looking back and thinking carefully, does the death of Sir Xia Ye definitely mean that the experiment failed?

What is the nature of this experiment?

——It is to guide the power that is suspected of being a "god" from 144 "heads" and connect these powers to Lord Xia Ye.

What do you think of Sir Xia Ye?

——She believes that she is a "god". As long as the connection is completed, she can regain her own power and become a "god" again.

What was my thought at that time?

——The experiment may summon "gods", and once the "gods" come, it is likely to cause a disaster that will destroy the world.

Lady Xia Ye was wrong, she was obviously not a "god".

My idea was also wrong. Now everyone except Mr. Xia Ye is alive and well, which is the best proof.

But is it possible that the two of us actually guessed part of what we were thinking...

By connecting those "heads", Lady Xia Ye did become a "god", but not in the way she thought, her body became part of the god's body - perhaps, this can also be counted as "becoming a god"?

And "gods" did come to our world through experiments, but the so-called "destruction upon arrival" is just my imagination. Why can't it come to our world quietly?

Perhaps even it itself is in some kind of doubt: it doesn't know who it is or why it's here.

In this way, it is logical that it will definitely investigate its origins. It just doesn't know what the reason is that draws its attention to "Mo's Creatures".

However, although "Mo's Creature" is not the place where it was created, it is indeed related to its birth.

An idea suddenly came to me:

Instead of waiting passively here, waiting for the other party to investigate into your head, why not take the initiative and try to contact the other party?

Another unexpected thing happened today.

As soon as I walked into the company's office, I found a black mask waiting for me inside - I hadn't seen them in more than a year.

Seeing me, Black Mask didn't say much, and straight to the point conveyed the notice from the "Ether Exploration" headquarters:

From now on, I have been appointed as the person in charge of the research project No. ETHP44012301096. The laboratory required for the research is ready and assistants are in place. I need to arrive at the new laboratory before 2 o'clock this afternoon and start working.

This temporarily arranged project is actually not a new task, but something I have done countless times before - testing those "brains".

Just as I predicted a year ago, "Ether Exploration" will summon me to work as a coolie again when necessary, because I am the only remaining person who has a relative understanding of the "brain".

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I walked into the laboratory and once again saw those "old friends" I had not seen for more than a year. Then I immediately understood why Aether Prospecting was so anxious for me to re-examine them.

Those "heads" changed. They originally had different appearances, but now they all look the same. And I had just seen this appearance just a few days ago.

This is the face of that "summer night".
