Eddie stared quietly at the place in front of him. The various spots of light on the surface of the Prometheus server behind him were still breathing.
"Sir Eddie, please leave quickly. According to my calculations, Sir Eddie, your escape probability is 33%. Please enter the emergency escape!"
Prometheus was still persuading, and Eddie leaned comfortably against the warm surface of the server. Eddie raised his head and glanced at the time. It was already 11:56, and it would be 2226 in 4 minutes.
"You probably won't be able to make it this year!"
A smile appeared on Eddie's originally cold expression. He raised his head and rested his head on his hands.
"I will not leave, Prometheus. This is the territory of our Hillman family. If the owner of the territory leaves, then the Hillman family will truly die."
A smile gradually bloomed on Eddie's cheek, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he smiled relaxedly.
"Master Eddie, please leave. As long as you leave, according to my calculations, we will still have..."
The voice of Prometheus gradually faded away from Eddie's ears. Eddie knew very well that after all, it was just a machine, a bunch of data language programs, and it was impossible to deeply understand the hardships of being a human being.
Eddie doesn't know whether everyone will review their life when they are about to die, or whether human beings are such creatures that they will want to review their lives when they die.
Eddie has never thought about failure since he was a child, because he has seen too many people in the Hillman family who failed, and the result is death, so Eddie cannot fail, whether in study or life, all the way
Along the way, Eddie has failed countless times, but such failures did not make Eddie die, but made him stronger.
The happiest time in Eddie's life was during his college years. Those short four or five years were the best times in Eddie's life. From childhood to adulthood, there was almost nothing that made Eddie happy or happy.
"Maybe!"
Eddie's heart felt sad, and his originally cold body became hot again. In Eddie's memory, there was such a warm and happy moment.
One time when he was a child, Eddie was severely beaten by his father because he made a mistake. However, Eddie did not make a mistake. It was his father who was wrong. That was the first time Eddie argued, but his father became angry and beat him severely.
It's Eddie.
As a result, Eddie was covered in bruises and crying on the path next to his home. Eddie didn't understand why his father beat and scolded him when he was obviously right and not wrong.
"Are you crying Eddie!"
That was the first time Eddie saw his cousin, this beautiful girl with a smile, who took him to her room to clean himself and treat his wounds.
That was the only time when Eddie felt warmth as a child. He liked this girl very much. He liked this gentle and kind girl. His cousin was a little different from other people in the family and would always reprimand some inappropriate behavior.
However, with the failure of Eddie's parents, they lost their status in the Hillman family, and Eddie began to be bullied by some children of the same age. At this time, the person standing in front of Eddie was his cousin.
Eddie could see that his cousin was very reluctant, but the voice started to spread, and his cousin started to take action. Eddie was happy at that time, because if her cousin refused to take action, she would become like Eddie,
Being bullied by others.
Gradually, my cousin changed and became like the rest of the Hillman family. Everyone in the family is the same. Crime and violence are the most indispensable food in the family.
Everyone was eating the food crazily. Time and time again, Eddie may have thought about breaking away from these shackles. He woke up and started planning to seize everything from the family.
The long, painful and torturous childhood finally ushered in the dawn after taking everything away.
"All this is for the prosperity and strength of the entire family. If you don't step on others, you will be stepped on. Don't have mercy on anyone. This will harm yourself and drag down the entire family!"
The voice was always filling Eddie's mind. This unknown voice made Eddie clearly realize that he was also a member of the Hillman family and a piece of the huge twisted body of the Hillman family.
No matter what Dee wanted to do, no matter how much he wanted to disobey, he still could not escape the huge shadow of the Hillman family.
Eddie wanted to seek some comfort, some warmth, and some help. Eddie saw something different in his eight classmates. He wanted to get along well with those classmates.
I really want to be like friends and be able to chat and laugh with them.
However, every time the words came to his lips, they always turned into vicious sounds, and the thoughts came to his hands, they always turned into conspiracy and calculation. Eddie really wanted to have a good chat about medical treatment with Freya, and he really wanted to have a good chat with Wu Qun.
Talking about happy things is the same as other students, but Eddie can't do it. He will mess up every time. It is obvious that these are not his sincere words, nor are they what he really wants to do.
Even his favorite cousin, Ran Zhi once said in the past that Eddie did not know how to love others. Eddie did not refute or think about this problem, because Eddie knew what love was and was clearly seizing the power.
Finally, Eddie wanted to hug his cousin and give her the most beautiful thing in the world, but in the end he gave her the cruelest thing in the world.
"cousin!"
Eddie muttered, and a light and shadow screen immediately appeared in front of Eddie. Eddie smiled and looked at the woman lying in a pool of blood on the screen. It looked like she was not killed by Alpha, but committed suicide.
Eddie looked at it with a sad expression. At this moment, everything seemed to be coming to an end. There was a sound of footsteps at the entrance of the passage. Eddie looked over and Alpha walked in. Eddie closed his eyes with a smile.
With no friends, no lovers, and no relatives, Eddie slowly stood up and looked at Alpha walking over step by step.
11:59
“It’s really long!”
Eddie looked at Alpha with a smile. The Alpha in front of him was cold and ruthless. Eddie could no longer see the light. In the past, no matter when and where he saw Alpha, Eddie could always see it in Alpha.
The intense light, which seemed to be able to warm everything and even scorch everything, became increasingly dimmer.
"My life is over!"
Alpha raised his fist, Eddie blinked slightly, a tear slipped from his left eye, and he looked at Alpha with a smile.
"Your life is the same!"
boom
A violent roar sounded.
The flowers were fluttering, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, and Eddie was sitting among the flowers and green grass. He raised his head comfortably, enjoying the warm sunshine, and the breeze blew across his forehead from time to time.
Eddie smiled, and a beautiful and gentle woman walked over slowly, while Erwin stood quietly aside.
"Erwin, this world is obviously very beautiful, isn't it?"
"Yes, Lord Eddie!"
The woman sat next to Eddie and leaned on Eddie's shoulder.
"It is such a beautiful world!"
Everything fell into darkness. Eddie glanced back at the black shadow behind him, and the black shadow gradually transformed into Ran Zhi's appearance.
"Wise man! This world is actually very beautiful!"
There was a rumble, and Eddie's body was embedded in the Prometheus server. There was a sizzling electric current on the ground. Alpha had turned around, and blood flowed down Eddie's chest, dripping down.
on the ground.
The entire space was rumbling, Prometheus servers were exploding, and debris was falling. The lights flickered on and off. Alpha walked towards the long passage, and darkness fell after the lights went out.
Dang Dang Dang
January 1, 2226, 0:00
The new year is coming. In an instant, bunches of fireworks are launched in various areas of the city. Violent cheers erupt from the streets everywhere. People are cheering that the new year is coming, and this year is also bright.
The city’s 51st year.
Half a century has passed, and Bright City has been built for 50 years. In just 50 years, society has undergone countless changes. The city has changed from small towns separated by one another to the high-rise buildings it is today.
The streets are all connected, and countless neon lights flash brilliantly every night.
“Hope everything goes well this year!”
Someone made a wish in the square to repay love. Everyone is the same. In the past few years, people have experienced the Great Depression in the city and witnessed the rebound of the economy due to the opening up of science and technology. But now the economy has fallen again.
Everyone hopes that life will be better in the new year, and many people gather together to tell their beautiful vision for this year.
Everyone is celebrating the New Year as the first half of the century ends and the second half begins.
This year is a very special New Year. It has been several minutes, and the New Year's fireworks are still exploding in the air. The fleeting brilliance makes everyone look up and quietly watch this fireworks show.
On the First Avenue, the breeze was caressing, the fallen leaves were flying in the wind, and the ground was constantly changing colors due to the fireworks in the night sky. Eight people lined up in a row, accompanied by several directors, little by little.
Walking towards the end of the First Avenue, at this time, the patriarchs of the surrounding families came out one by one, and soon the crowd gathered.
Freya looked at the senior executives of the business department in front of her with a solemn expression. Gradually, as the distance got closer and closer, Freya turned her head and looked at the Hillman family in shock. Everyone stopped.
The large-scale light and shadow environment simulation system has been lifted.
The section chiefs and secretaries were carrying the corpses and piling them to the outside of the manor. No one spoke, they just watched all this quietly. Some people were already slumped on the ground.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Gene, who was standing at the gate of Hillman Manor. He stood there, smoking silently. Locke was standing next to Gene. The family area had been completely blocked.
Already, a large number of light and shadow environment simulators have been launched in peripheral areas.
No sound can be conveyed from here, the network has been disconnected for a long time, no one knows what is going on, but the first thing everyone thinks of is Alpha Angus.
There was a sound of footsteps, and the gathered family patriarchs moved out of the way. Violet walked over with a pale face, and she ran behind Jean.
To be continued...
