Chapter 334 New reasons for taking leave

The wish still did not show itself in front of Chen Yan.

'Ahem...'

The voice of desire became smaller and sounded much more normal than before.

'I mean... who is she?'

Her pale words could not conceal the hostility in her tone.

Chen Yan said truthfully: "Her name is Messiah, and she is Marina's child."

After a brief silence, Wishes said: 'No... I can tell at a glance that she is not human!'

Chen Yan almost lost his temper because of these words, and said angrily: "You are definitely looking at my damn memory..."

Wish then said: "Humans don't have this. She is a carbon-based creature, but her consciousness is no longer human. She has at least a hundred brains the size of a library in Yanan City, and her brain nerves are more developed than ordinary people."

There are so many...'

The vision of desire is different from that of ordinary extraordinary beings. From her description, Chen Yan roughly knew what was inside Messiah's head.

'It stands to reason that there are still two things in her head.'

The wish is firm in tone.

'I remember that last time in the [Path of the Dragon of Rebirth] created by the bone dragon, when the child was first born, his eyes had three colors...Liang Ansheng is not counted, because he is already dead.'

'A blue that represents the Aiel people, a metallic ice blue, and a strange crimson.'

'After she was born, Azure's consciousness became the master of her body, but Ice Blue and Crimson didn't stop either. They... were developing her brain.'

'Or maybe they did something else that ultimately caused her brain to develop.'

Chen Yan frowned and said:

"Will she be different as a result?"

Wish replied straightforwardly:

'Absolutely not, because they don't want her to become a being like them. It's best for her to be like this. Although she knows some things, she has a serious language barrier and can't even speak.'

Chen Yan said thoughtfully:

"language disability……"

wish said:

'There is a saying in Asian slang that Hui Ji will be injured. This is her current situation.'

'They developed her brain and even modified her body in preparation for them to take over her body.

But her consciousness had only been born for two days, and even if she had grown during their transformation of her body, that growth was limited.

Her consciousness was not enough to bear the knowledge of their gods, so there was a language barrier...

The consciousness is very weak, but it carries a lot of things - if you know too much, if you can't bear it, you will be stupid.

In fact, she is pretty good like this.

I mean, it’s pretty good that she hasn’t been turned into a fool or madman by the knowledge of gods in her head.’

Chen Yan frowned and said, "I see..."

After a brief silence, Wishful suddenly said: 'She can see me.'

When Chen Yan turned his head, he saw Messiah staring at the position next to him, with curiosity shining in his beautiful blue eyes.

'Damn, she really doesn't recognize me anymore? She really doesn't...'

Chen Yan asked curiously: "She was just born, how could she know you?"

On the seat next to Chen Yan, out of his sight, the silver-haired girl was looking at Messiah with squinted eyes, and the hostility in her eyes almost overflowed.

But after a moment, she finally couldn't maintain such a gaze, and was defeated by the gaze of Messiah's innocent eyes.

She didn't see any other colors in her eyes.

So she ignored her gaze and changed the topic: 'After you got off work this afternoon, I saw the place underground.'

Chen Yan suddenly became energetic: "How do you say it?"

She said: 'I can confirm that there are only ruins and wreckage left there. Well... although there are still living things, the living things are not the residents there, but people who entered from the outside and are latecomers.'

Chen Yan immediately told Wish about the conversation he had with Alice this afternoon.

After hearing this, Wishful asked curiously: 'Huh? How is this possible? The ruins I have seen are obviously very dilapidated. Judging from the aging of the buildings in the ruins... they are at least hundreds of years old.

She thought carefully and affirmed:

'That city must have been destroyed a hundred years ago.'

Chen Yan thought: "But according to Alice, she entered the underground ruins in her dream about half a year ago."

Wishful thought: 'This is strange...I'll go back tonight and take a look. Maybe I really overlooked something before.'

Chen Yan took out the hot fried chicken from the bread oven and placed it on the dining table. While she was eating the fried chicken, she said:

"By the way, I have something to do tomorrow, so I won't care about you."

Wishes gnawed on the fried chicken and gave a hesitant hum, indicating that he understood.

The kitchen became quiet, and the sound caused by the occasional sparks exploding in the bread oven seemed particularly loud in such a quiet winter night. The street lights outside the window were already on, and the cold white light shining into the kitchen could not dispel the sound rising from under the floor.

of warmth.

Only when it was quiet like this could Chen Yan feel that the sky-high cost of floor heating was worth it.

Messiah's eyes have left the wish, and then focused on Chen Yan.

She seems to have a strong curiosity about the world, looking at everything for a long time and never getting tired of it.

What's even more bizarre is that Chen Yan actually got used to such gaze after a while.

He was thinking that there were more and more people in the apartment now, and after Nuomiguo and Messiah went to school, they would need their own desks and necessary lighting devices.

Should the apartment be renovated?

For example, install chandeliers in every room? Or buy some desks?

It was a big expense, but he could probably afford it. More than half of the 25 pounds he earned from Colin Frankenstein was given to Ogami, and the remaining 10 pounds was enough for him to buy and renovate an apartment.

Required items.

Or...

Issue an invoice and ask the company for reimbursement?

But tigers don’t seem to need a desk or read under a chandelier...

Thinking of this, Chen Yan sighed in his heart, the money he should spend really has to come from his own pocket...

There are many things to do tomorrow. Give the six lists to Vidya Gandhi to purchase the items needed for repairs and find decoration workers...maybe you also need to buy some ingredients.

Although these things are not difficult, they are very time-consuming and may take up a whole day of his energy.

It seems that I won't be able to go to work tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan thought of what happened before.

At the beginning of last week, he had a phone call with Lawrence, the zoo's first agent, about asking for leave.

Lawrence had made it clear that Third Uncle's research on the zoo would be of great help. If he wanted to conduct a follow-up investigation on Third Uncle, he could not go to work until he was sure that his wish was okay.

Too many things happened after that, and Chen Yan was so busy that he completely forgot what Lawrence said.

Now that the third uncle is dead and the body has been taken away by Colin Frankenstein, if Chen Yan doesn't go to work tomorrow, how will he explain to Lawrence when he asks?

Speaking of which, judging from all the previous signs, Lawrence must be very well-informed. When Ogami was killing people in the Lower City, Lawrence quickly learned the relevant information.

So, Lawrence most likely knew what happened in the apartment building at No. 33 Walker Street last Sunday night...According to Gotlind's description, "even the monsters under the Smoky Lake knew about it."

In other words, Lawrence now probably knows that his third uncle is dead.

even……

Lawrence may even know that he handed over the body of his third uncle to Colin Frankenstein.

Lawrence had always been kind to him, but now he had done such a "treacherous" thing and gave Colin Frankenstein the research object that Lawrence had entrusted to him.

Fortunately, he had an agreement with Colin Frankenstein that he would only leave his third uncle to them for three days to study.

Colin Frankenstein took away the third uncle's body this Monday. Three days later, that is, Thursday afternoon at the latest - the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at the latest, according to the agreement, he will send the third uncle's body back.

Colin Frankenstein had better send his third uncle's body back obediently and don't let him pick it up himself...

Chen Yan found it depressingly, but if Colin really wanted him to get it, he had no way to refuse.

Chen Yan couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the weird place at Miskatonic University.

Let’s talk about the day after tomorrow. There is no need to think of the worst case scenario before it happens.

At worst, I'll be shameless enough to go find Ogami with me.
