Chapter 7: Adrian Helmris
第七章:艾德里安·赫尔姆里斯
Suddenly falling from the altar, many elites and politicians from all over the world felt very uncomfortable after coming to Washington, and were unwilling to stay in the cramped and depressed room. Although they could all get tickets, they heard extremely cruel news every day, and people's hearts were full of flesh, and many people were also very uncomfortable in their hearts, so they chose to relax.
Arabham Lincoln is a hero who liberated black people. The Lincoln Memorial itself is also a very famous attraction. There are many people who choose to come here, and there are crowds of people every day. If it were put in the past, the person in charge would definitely be smiling from ear to ear.
Zhang Shen and the other four walked on stone steps, passed under the tall columns and entered the memorial hall. In the middle was the marble-carved Lincoln statue. On the wall above the statue, there was an inscription "Lincoln will last forever and will always exist in the hearts of the people." On the left, his speech when he was re-elected as president was engraved, and on the right was the famous Getsburg speech.
Lincoln sat upright on a chair, quietly watching people coming and going, as the time passed by alternate night and day, watching the country he dedicated his life to, little by little, become strange and prosperous.
I just don't know if he had ever expected everything today? But even if he was reborn, he would be at a loss.
"Mr. Lincoln, if it were you, would you be able to deal with everything today?" A low murmur came from a man beside Zhang Shen.
Zhang Guan looked in the past. He was an American black man dressed very formally, with deep brows, revealing a deep sorrow and depression. He looked up at Lincoln's statue with his forehead showing his headlines. His slightly pale and weak face, a messy stubble that had not been cleaned for a while, and his fatigue and depression from being under great pressure for a long time, made people feel pity.
The man noticed the gaze from Zhang Shen, turned his head, was stunned, and then thought of something, his eyes dimmed, and he smiled with a kind smile.
Zhang Shen's face had been exposed to the FBI before, and the face of a black man was also exposed at this time. It was probably very coincidental to a certain acquaintance of that man.
"Adrian Helmris." Adrian suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart and stretched out his hand with a smile.
“多雷克·卡卡罗特.”
Zhang Shen's calm performance surprised Adrian, and then he laughed at himself and threw it behind his head.
"Mr. Kakarot..."
"Just call me Dorek." Zhang Shen's eyes twitched, feeling that he had become some kind of strange creature with a tail.
"These three are my friends. Mantha, Dania, Wood."
The five people greeted each other, walked out of the memorial hall, and came to the pillars.
"What do you think about the current situation?" Adrian suddenly said.
Well?! Zhang Shen and the other two exchanged obscure eyes and felt joy in their hearts. When they heard Adrian's tone, they seemed to be a big fish?
"My luck is not bad yet." Ignoring Bu Lichen's strong luck, someone shamelessly attributed it to himself.
"Do you mean the situation... the United States, or the whole world?"
"Is there any difference between the United States or the entire world?" Adrian's words were full of irony.
He seemed not to expect any profound answers from Zhang Shen and his people, and continued to ask to himself: "You think, for us humans, should we die in ignorance, or should we know that everything is counting the arrival of the end of the world in despair and suffering to the death?"
On the way here, Ouyang Tianqi and the other two also had a further understanding of the "reality" of this world. When they heard this, they were silent.
After hearing the radio, Zhang Shen kept thinking about this question, however, this is a dead end with no answer.
When something called "civilization" first appeared in human minds, pursuing the truth is the instinct of everyone, especially in recent hundreds of years, the word "freedom" has taken root in the hearts of most people. The pursuit of "freedom" is largely the search for the truth in the world.
But if anyone knew in advance that the "truth" was so cruel and so desperate, would anyone still want to know?
This is an unsolvable problem, after all, time cannot be reversed.
However, for people in this world, ultimately, the source of all tragedies is the overwhelming G8 record on October 1.
And this, undoubtedly, has nothing to do with the betrayer!!
"Betrelor~~~" For a moment, Zhang Shen was filled with hatred for this existence who had never seen but had heard a lot of rumors.
"This is my business card. If you have any trouble, I can still help you." Perhaps it was Zhang Chan's "appearance" at this time and the atmosphere of this trip to Lincoln Memorial aroused some of Adrian's emotions. He took out a business card and slightly hinted at his "energy" in Washington.
And in fact, this is indeed the case. With his current "identity", he is indeed qualified to say such domineering words.
"Don't you still do it?" "Captain, do you want to do it?" Zhang Shen heard the urging of Ouyang Tianqi and others, asking.
"certainly!!"
Zhang Shen knew that the more guards control the top leaders of this world, the smoother their next actions will be. The starting point of everyone's actions is to save more human beings, which is beneficial to the entire human being.
Moreover, the control methods used by the guards are relatively gentle, not the way to completely erase one's will, and will not hurt the root. For example, a golden lotus hidden in the palm of your hand at this time is to "savage", making the saved person become a devout Buddhist believer. Although he will obey the words of the person who refined the lotus, his own will and wisdom have no effect.
Zhang Shen was about to start when he suddenly screamed and a strong smell of blood came.
"Something happened to me!" "I'm very injured, don't touch him!" "Call an ambulance, call an ambulance!" "No, the streets are so blocked now, the ambulance is too slow! Is there a doctor on the scene? Or someone who knows first aid is OK!" "I! I'm a doctor, let me come!" "I'm also a surgeon, let me in!"
Just now, someone had an accident and was seriously injured. However, the people here are worthy of being high-quality elites, without any panic, and conducted first aid in an orderly manner.
Unfortunately, the man was so hurt that when Zhang Shen and the other two walked over, the man had already stopped breathing. Next to the corpse, a mother and daughter hugged her head and cried bitterly, heart-wrenchingly, which made people sigh.
From the lowly conversation of others, Zhang Shen learned that the man was down the stairs and suddenly stepped on the air. Then his head hit the edge of the stone brick, and a hole was smashed into his head, and he died in less than a minute.
The security guards arrived immediately and took the dead away, leaving only a large piece of bright red blood stains, which were dyed on the bright ground, which was particularly dazzling.
The people around them scattered, as if they wanted to stay away from this unlucky place.
"It's another... this world, what's wrong..." Adrian murmured at the stall of blood on the ground that had not yet dried up, his face was very ugly, his eyes were full of confusion and anxiety.
"Another?" Ouyang Tianqi's pupils shrank and he asked, "Adrian, have there been a lot of similar things happening recently?"
Adrian nodded, his eyes a little blank: "I saw several of them."
"Every death incident seems a bit inexplicable. Although it can be explained by coincidence, it is not a coincidence when there are too many coincidences."
Li Jing frowned slightly: "I remember many similar events have been reported on the radio, which have happened all over the country. Moreover, the Doomsday Truth Church also took the opportunity to declare that this is the devil coming to the earth or something..."
Adrian twitched his lips: "Devil? They are all delusions of a poor man who is completely desperate."
Adrian, who received quality education since childhood, was disdainful of the matter of gods and ghosts, but Zhang Shen and the other two were nervous and were extremely cautious in their attitude towards this matter. They linked the black air pillar that Ouyang Tianqi had seen before and the Tianluozi said that "the country will die will have monsters." It is obvious that these inexplicable deaths are not that simple.
"Actually, after all, we are just poor people who hold the last glimmer of hope." Suddenly, he laughed at himself.
"Everyone, I have something to do, so I will leave first. I wish you all a happy life in Washington, goodbye." After speaking, he began to say goodbye.
"etc!"
"Huh, what else... um~~" Adrian suddenly called out by Zhang Shen, and then saw a golden Buddha light shot out from Zhang Shen's hand, split into two strands, falling into his eyes, condensed into two extremely small "卍" symbols.
After being stunned for a moment, Adrian shook his head hard and asked in confusion: "Dorek, what happened to me just now?"
"You are probably too tired, I suggest you go home and have a good rest."
"I just seemed to see a golden light shot out from your hands..."
"Golden Light? In my hands?" Zhang Chan spread his hands with a strange look on his face. "Adrian, it seems that you are really tired and have hallucinations in your eyes. I once again seriously suggest you stop the work at hand and have a few days of rest."
"You look in the mirror, that exhausted look... How long has it been since you had a serious rest?"
Zhang Shen's concerning words moved Adrian, not to mention that he was even more familiar with his face, which made the latter feel more intimate and immediately threw something golden to the back.
"Thank you, I know."
"I will pay attention and go back and have a good rest." After thinking about it carefully, I have indeed not had a good sleep for more than half a month. Even if I fall asleep, I will wake up in a nightmare.
As for the content of the nightmare...even during the day, it still makes Adrian creepy when he thinks about it.
"Adrian, why did he suddenly look so ugly?"
"It's okay, I just suddenly remembered bad memories."
"So goodbye, my dear friend." Adrian suppressed the terrifying scenes to the depths of his memory, waved at Zhang Shen and the other two with a smile, and his figure gradually disappeared.
