"Xiaobai, you know that the original intention of the Academy of Sciences was to study the original stone that changed everything."

"However, getting close to such a great solidification miracle is an extremely dangerous thing."

"No, we can't say it's dangerous. It should be said that we humans are not qualified to admire that great miracle."

"At the moment of approaching the First Stone, all [matter] and [concepts] will be distorted."

"Space, time, mind, memory, life, basic natural constants, reality..."

"Everything you can think of will change. The First Stone is there, but it's not just in the safest house in the world. It spans the past, present and future."

"In the beginning, scientists would carry sophisticated instruments to test the First Stone, but when the workers entered, they turned into thin feathers and seven-color rainbows, and the instruments disappeared, only to reappear in the Seventy-five years later.”

"The research on the First Stone is full of difficulties. Although some results have been achieved, the best way is to start with its derivatives."

Shen Bai suddenly realized:

"For example...the Creation Card?"

"Yes, the Academy of Sciences once owned a complete set of Creation Cards, but due to an incident, most of them were lost. But having said that, the derivatives of the First Stone should not belong to any person or force. The Academy of Sciences only paid the price and borrowed them. It’s just power, no one can possess the Creation Card, except..."

He glanced at Shen Bai, and the meaning was self-evident.

Shen Bai could only look silly and happy, unable to answer the call.

Du Shanfeng did not embarrass him and continued:

"Originally, research on you and the [Creation Card Sunday] in your hand has been put on the agenda, but considering your age and combat power, and knowing that you are going to participate in October Crazy, we postponed it again , but it has been notified from above that the formal research will start early next year.”

"Okay, no problem." Shen Bai nodded.

"Xiaobai, what I want to remind you is... actually, those crazy people in the Academy of Sciences are more interested in you as a person who can possess the Creation Card."

"Oh, you mean, I'm going to be studied?"

"Don't worry, the Academy of Sciences always gives preferential treatment to experimental materials."

"...the words "experimental material" make people feel a little nervous when they sound like it."

Shen Bai smiled bitterly, but for some reason, he wasn't worried at all.

He knows that Sister Mao'er will protect him.

After chatting with Du Shanfeng, Shen Bai found Qiao Mianmian and Lao Mo who were still recovering from their injuries, stayed for a while and then left the Blue Rose Hotel.

He did not go home, but came to the old house of Li Xiaorui's family to visit the father of Agent Peach Blossom Eyes.

After Li Xiaorui died, Uncle Li stopped drinking.

The old man is not short of money. Li Xiaorui's pension is very high, which is enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life. However, he does not spend lavishly and no longer drinks alcohol. Instead, he raises some kittens and puppies and plays with them from time to time.

On the balcony filled with the golden glow of the setting sun, Shen Bai and Uncle Li were lying quietly on chairs, chatting about what happened in Lanhai City during this period.

They all made a tacit agreement not to mention the deceased agent.

However, even if the shadow of Li Xiaorui is no longer in the words, sadness is like a nail hole in the fence, staying there forever.

Shen Bai had dinner at Uncle Li's house, cleaned the dishes and left. However, when he was leaving, the old man who was no longer an alcoholic suddenly stopped him and said in a deep voice:

"Xiao Bai, it is our most glorious dream to dedicate ourselves to the Federation and humanity, but... if we are in a desperate situation that we cannot save even if we die, we should try our best to survive. Your adoptive parents don't want to see this underground. Young you."

Shen Bai was stunned and smiled brightly:

"Okay, uncle!"

…

Back home, Shen Bai and Sister Maoer chatted about what happened today.

Shen Bai had a vague feeling that something might happen on August 16th.

He had carefully analyzed the behavior of the Shadow Empire and found that this evil organization was very strange.

The young mutant who twisted and twisted to intercept the transportation of the Academy of Sciences, set off a shadow game cholera among the citizens of Lanhai City, and colluded with the old land to besiege the king-level powerhouse...

But no matter which of the above things it was, the Shadow Empire did not devote all its combat power. At least Luo Hebei did not take action all the time, nor did he kill everyone.

It's like an innocent child playing boringly in the afternoon.

——Everything he does seems to be just for “fun.”

This kind of enemy who acts without logic is the most terrifying.

"Sister Mao'er, do you think our Lanhai City won't be in chaos again? I always feel that Luo Hebei is going to cause trouble."

"It doesn't matter. Chaos and disorder are the norm. The order that humans pursue is retrograde."

"...This is the first time I've heard of this theory. Do you have any explanation?"

"Oh, dear, everything will die, things will eventually decay, everything is changing, and eternity is only a short moment..." Miss Black Cat said, paused, and a smile appeared in her voice:

"Of course, there are always exceptions to everything. Some things will never fade away, and some things will last forever."

"Uh...like?"

"For example, I will always love you, my dear."

Chen Bai's ears were a little red.

Sister Maoer, flirt with Xiaobai Di Shen!

"No, no, I can't stand it anymore." Shen Bai raised the black cat and said expectantly:

"Sister Mao'er, please turn into a human form. I want to kiss you."

"Ah? Why are you so horny all of a sudden, my dear?"

"You've brought out the atmosphere..."

"Haha, but, dear, today's half hour has been used up."

"Huh? When did it happen? Why do I have no memory at all..."

"Morning." Black Cat smiled briskly:

"At around six o'clock, when it was almost dawn, you were sleeping soundly, and I turned into a human figure and nestled in your arms. Have you forgotten?"

"...I thought it was a dream, and I also wondered why there was such a big pillow in my bedroom..."

Shen Bai lamented, put the black cat on his shoulder, and continued:

"Sister Mao'er, there is also the matter about the Academy of Sciences. They said they will start studying me at the beginning of next year... Do you think the black hole in the palm of my left hand will not be discovered?"

"What are you thinking, my dear, if they can't even discover the [life hole] of the aberrations, the scholars of the Academy of Sciences might as well just wipe their necks and commit suicide."

"Doesn't that mean I will be in danger?"

"It's okay, they will keep it a secret for you, and maybe you will get something unexpected."

Shen Bai was speechless:

"How dare the Academy of Sciences be so bold? Abnormal mutants have been fighting with humans for countless years. They are the enemy of the race. Are you really not afraid that the incident will be revealed and there will be no recovery?"

"Hmm... It seems that the current federal textbooks have been deleted a lot." The black cat licked its paws and said something that made Shen Bai stunned:

"The Academy of Sciences is an extremely ancient human organization. It only obeys the Federation in name. Otherwise, why can it monopolize the Holy City?"

"Their goal from the beginning to the end is to solve the mystery of the First Stone. Of course, as a human force, the Academy of Sciences also firmly stands on the side of the Federation."

"As long as there is no problem with racial justice, the Federation will not interfere too much with the freedom of the Academy of Sciences. As long as confidentiality work is done well, the Academy of Sciences can do many extraordinary things."

"For example, collecting human corpses and transporting underage aberrations..."
