Chapter 559: Mikael, Who Hasn't Appeared for a Long Time, Wants a Handsome

"If you want to know the truth, you have to bear the consequences of knowing the truth."

The lighting in the interrogation room was a bit dazzling, thanks to the fact that everything from the table to the armrests and backrests of the chairs, to the walls and the door, were all made of stainless steel or aluminum alloy, without even paint. But if it was to save costs, they didn't hesitate to make the surface mirror-like, probably to cater to someone's special hobby.

Such a result was somewhat disastrous - the light emitted by the fluorescent lamp was not dazzling, but it was constantly reflected between multiple mirrors, and the fine light was intertwined and woven into a mesh, making everything in this room look like it was coated with a layer of silver.

Of course, it was so complicated, but in fact two words were enough to describe it - dizzy.

"The truth may be far more cruel than you think... So, for most people, a truth that is too cruel to accept is probably better not to know."

The words came out uncontrollably, his hands crossed in front of him, and then silently held in front of his lips, all of which were completely out of his control.

The two girls opposite fell silent all of a sudden, especially the girl with gray hair and blue eyes, who looked quite handsome, so much so that she was almost misidentified as a gender when registering earlier. Her pupils shrank a little more than before, and she kept trembling. As for whether the emotion guiding her was anger or helplessness, it was not something a man could know.

"Hua... that is... Carol... so strange..."

Everything in sight turned to the unreal side under the halo of strong light, and the voice was even more ethereal and distant, as if it was transmitted to the ears through several layers of thick quilts, as if everything that was happening in front of him was just a dream.

Hmm? Dream?

This is rare. He did finally regain the ability to dream, although he didn't realize it himself. He used to be a person who never had no dreams, but starting in the spring of 1477, he dreamed for five hundred years in a row. Since then, dreamless sleep has replaced dreams and become the biggest part of his night.

So such a deep dream is really rare for him.

No, it seems that it is not just a dream.

The man seemed to suddenly realize something and began to look for the answer in his long and complicated memory.

It didn't take long, or rather, when he saw Hua and Carol in this state, the answer had already appeared in his mind.

Isn't this the first time they met?

Why did he dream of such an old thing?

What does this dream indicate?

He has long passed the age of being suspicious of prophetic dreams, but for some reason, at this moment, he seemed to have returned to the age in the dream, subconsciously thinking about those unfounded things.

Dreams should be chaotic and confused. Even so-called lucid dreams are never so clear as to be so immersive. It's like... extracting a certain section of memory and then pressing the play button in the dream...

If it were someone else, he would probably think that he was disturbed by some spiritual power. But since he is a person with the power of the end, it is impossible for someone to do this quietly. At least as the end, he did not find any traces.

Besides... this feeling is not unfamiliar.

The memory in the dream was not disturbed by his thinking, and it was still playing down according to the original trajectory.

"Come on, get in the car first, it's getting late, I have to take you back to school."

"Hey! You don't look much older than us! Do you have a driver's license?"

"No, but I'm not driving. This car has automatic driving. Don't worry, I've tried it several times, and this AI is still very reliable."

"But as far as I know, even if you use automatic driving on the road, it doesn't mean that you don't need a driver's license..."

"Hey, hey, hey, little girl - do you see where we came from? We are all family, how could I be caught by the traffic police?"

"Puff -"

This sudden laugh did not come from any of the three people present in the dream, but from the heart of Mikael who was in the first-person perspective.

He knew what would happen next. He successfully sent the two children back to school, but was stopped by a diligent traffic police captain on the way back. In the end, it was Mobius who rescued him.

He still had some impression of the traffic police later. Later, when the collapse broke out, he saw this guy helping to maintain order in the Canghai City Shelter. Later, he joined the Fire Chaser Moth as expected. The last time he saw him was at the celebration party after the ninth collapse, that's all.

The memories of the past poured out uncontrollably, as if a troublesome guy was reciting these meaningless things in his mind like a treasure, which was a headache and helpless at the same time.

The man hadn't felt this feeling of "being unable to control himself" for a long time. And at this moment, at least at this moment, the feeling of powerlessness in the past once again surged into his heart, but unlike in the past, he faced this feeling of powerlessness again at this time, but he felt that it was nothing more than that.

If we want to investigate the reasons, one is that the past is just the past after all, it is the path he has already walked no matter what. Not to mention just memories, even if he walks it over again, it is completely fine. Even if the twelve short years of experience contained too much pain, there was always a non-painful side, which was much better than the 50,000 years he spent later, when life was worse than death.

The second thing is... that feeling of helplessness is not just for the memory, but more because... he already understands why he dreamed these things without external interference.

At first, I just felt that such a lucid dream was somewhat familiar, but when I searched through my memory, I couldn't find any similar situation except for the time in the Eighth Herrscher.

But if you haven't forgotten it when you see this, I...oh, Mikael's memory, this Mikael's memory now, does not only include "his own" memory.

"It's really... quantum entanglement..."

In other words, in this world, it is of course possible that there is not only this world, but at least another existence that dreams the same thing as him.

Who could it be?

"boring."

Seeing that he had been stopped by the traffic police in his memory, Mikael just uttered two words in his consciousness. The time of the entire dream was delayed to almost stagnant in an instant, and then collapsed like a castle on the beach.

All the colorful images passed away like gravel, leaving only the darkness of nothingness. But Mikael's consciousness unexpectedly did not return immediately. Instead, after losing all support, he started to fall from slow to fast, and began to fall meaninglessly.

There was nothing but darkness all around, and he couldn't even see his own body.

To be precise, in a place like this, it would be extremely inappropriate to even call the surroundings darkness. But phenomena always require corresponding "descriptions" to be displayed - Mikael doesn't know why he is still struggling with these things at the moment.

There is no light, no reference, and there is no way to know even the speed of his fall or whether he is still falling. He seems to be imprisoned here, and this imprisonment may never end...

No. This can only mean that the guy over there hasn't woken up yet.

Mikael is not in a hurry. He has experienced this kind of situation of falling in dreams countless times as early as 50,000 years ago. Now that he is reliving it again, he does not feel the sadness and anxiety that he only felt at that time. This makes him somewhat sad. People are a little sad.

What are the differences between him now and him 50,000 years ago?

Forget it, this kind of thing doesn't matter at all.

Whether there is no change or where there is change, it doesn't matter at all.

If you really want to say it, the only valuable change is that he has more "time" now than he did in the past.

In the past, Mikael was a fool who went against time and destiny, always thinking that it would be better if he had more time. But now, he is a corpse that is moving down the long river of time, impatiently waiting to reach the end.

Even so, he is still much more calm than before. At least he didn't mind wasting a few minutes, or a few hours.

After all, this is...a rare break.

Then get down.

Then fall.

Sometimes it’s not a bad thing to re-experience the powerlessness of the past, so that you can better grasp...

The fall stopped.

The original darkness was gradually dyed reddish, which is the feeling of light being captured by the eyes through the thick eyelids.

"Is it over? It's so slow..."

Mikael opened his eyes. The fluorescent lamps that were turned on regularly were far more dazzling than the morning light seeping in from the window, but there was no way. They were snakes nesting underground.

It seemed that he had slept for a long time, and his head was heavy, as if he was wearing a helmet. But when he raised his hand and touched it, it was clear that there was nothing except his hair that had not been cut for a long time and was a little too long.

"Isn't it a little late?"

Mikael looked thoughtfully at the wall clock aside. The hour hand had clearly passed the number "11". It looked like that guy had a long sleep.

Take him with you.

"Hmph!"

For some reason, there was a hint of joy in his cold snort.

There is also another possibility, maybe it was not a cold snort at all from the beginning.

That's right, a smile soon spread across his face.

"Forget it, even though you can't hear it, but...thank you."

After brushing his teeth with ice water, Mikael took a rare pot of hot water and soaked the towel in it for half a minute. Then he raised his head and threw the towel on his face with a "snap".

"Well……"

He hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time, and he moaned uncontrollably. Anyway, since Mebius disappeared, no one else has entered his house, so he won't worry about anyone hearing him.

And after such a simple and casual hot compress, which although considered quite exquisite for a man, may look extremely careless to any woman, the fatigue and top-heavy illusion caused by a long sleep really quickly subsided. .

"Well... Jackal must be impatient, but... it's none of my business!"

It seems that the influence of quantum entanglement is still lingering, so that his character is inevitably influenced by some great lady who cannot be named (in fact, she has no name until now).

Mikael held the towel with both hands and wiped his face dry with a force that was strong enough to rub the chaff from his face and a rough technique that was completely opposite to his previous delicacy.

The rag was thrown away and hung on the shelf under the guidance of the space power. The warm water that had not been used much was poured out casually, and the basin was thrown aside. At this moment, Mikael has put his right hand on the door handle, and as for his left hand... his left hand is pressing the button.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, Jackal was standing at the door - using the power of time can indeed predict the future, but Mikael only heard the breathing outside the door. In this place, there are only two people who are qualified to bet on his door. Except for Jackal, the other guy doesn't need to breathe.

Even through the thick mask, even though the Jackal's mask was specially made with bright yellow lenses that could light up to cover his eyes, Mikael could still feel the resentment in her eyes.

"Lord, you... didn't have any rest last night, okay?"

"Is there something urgent? World Snake won't fall apart just because I slept in all morning."

Mikael closed the door, and then leaned his back against the door panel casually.

If it were 50,000 years ago, even if it was a superior-subordinate relationship, he would have apologized immediately. The effect of that dream seemed to be a little long-lasting, and until this moment, such thoughts were still popping up in his mind.

But he can't do that.

It's neither necessary nor possible.

World Snake, just like the name, if the anti-entropy doctors are harmless goats and Otto is a sinister, but as long as it does not hinder his progress, there will be no great danger to the wild wolf, then the world Snakes are mixed with too many snake-like beings.

They do have idealists, or in other words, how many of those who dare to fight against Honkai are not idealists? But this organization was founded by Mebius single-handedly. With destiny in the front and reverse entropy in the back, she was somewhat non-vegetarian when selecting people. In comparison, Jackal was quite good-natured.

As an airborne Lord who has long been revered as a legend, Mikael can sleep in, but he must not act too gentle.

In the eyes of those people, gentleness is equivalent to weakness, and strong words and blunt attitudes are more in line with their expectations of the Lord.

Jackal sighed softly. In the past, she would only show such an expression in front of Mebius.

"Lord, you may not know that without Dr. Mebius, many problems will inevitably arise in the operation of the entire organization..."

"That's what you need to deal with. Doesn't Mebius have a plan for when she becomes incapacitated?"

"Of course there is, but Dr. Mebius has never been found, and everyone is a little... panicked..."

"Why are you panicking?"

"Well……"

Jackal was stunned. She had imagined countless answers, but she never expected that the Lord would give such a series of rhetorical questions so forcefully.

"If something happens to Mebius, I am the one who should be anxious and panicked the most. As for you, I will be the one holding you up if the sky falls, so there is nothing to panic about."

The jackal was so excited that all the hairs on his body stood up.

But Mikael didn't give her a chance to sort out her thoughts. He leaned his back against the wall again and asked in a cold tone:

"What else? You can't wait at my door just for this kind of thing."

"Well... that's it, Lord. Early this morning, Otto suddenly sent a message. He wanted to meet you..."

"Time and place."

"Uh...he told you...'the place where we first met', and he will always wait for you."

"..."

"Lord?"

"I'll go have breakfast first. If he's willing to wait, just let him wait a little longer."

"Well……"

Even Jackal, who had always shown himself arrogantly, could no longer hold his nerve at this moment.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, that's fine. That guy is obviously a coward who can only hide behind the Valkyrie. Since he said he would wait, let him suffer for himself. As expected of the Lord! But now, go and talk to O If we ask for a meeting, over there in China..."

"It's just a chat with Otto, and then I will rush directly to China."

"My subordinate understands."
