"Shen Du wanted to betray the order and had already suffered divine punishment."
In Li Zhen's house, the dim lights fell on everyone unevenly, bringing different light and dark.
For nearly ten seconds, no one was speaking here, and even the sound of breathing seemed to be non-existent.
The whole room was as if someone had pressed the pause button.
Finally, the "guide" Ren Jie broke this silence, bent her arms, and made a shaken baby shape:
"Praise your tolerance!"
As soon as she finished speaking, there were rapid and heavy snorts in the room, and they seemed to have been holding back for a long time.
"Praise your tolerance!" All the members of the order saluted.
They are more religious than ever.
Shang Jianyao was mixed inside, scrupulously shaking the baby, and his voice did not fluctuate at all.
"Guide" Ren Jie turned and said:
"The sinner Wang Yafei also suffered divine punishment."
After saying that, she slowly looked around, making everyone lower their heads.
Ren Jie stopped mentioning Shen Du and Wang Yafei and began to preach.
This time, she was talking about the nobility and sacredness of life.
Towards the end, she once again swept her eyes over each member one by one:
"My Lord is forgiving and majestic.
"He is always watching the world.
"And the 'Holy Master' has been paying attention to us, and no one can hide his eyes."
Just now, she mentioned for the first time the internal structure of the "Sacrifice of Life" order:
After joining as a "new birth", with a certain contribution and developing many believers, he can be promoted to "guide", and above the "guide" is the "holy teacher".
As for whether there is a "holy master" and what it is called, Ren Jie did not say.
"Praise your tolerance!" The "newborns" once again made the motion of shaking the baby.
Since it was a temporary meeting and there was no sacrament, they quickly got up and left in batches.
Shang Jianyao was just about to go out, but was stopped by Ren Jie.
The "guide" smiled and said to him:
"Don't be too afraid, Si Fate is tolerant.
"As long as he does not blaspheme the gods and does not betray the order, He will only give blessings, not divine punishments."
Ren Jie's attitude towards Shang Jianyao was much kinder than before.
"Praise your tolerance." Shang Jianyao responded reverently.
When he left Li Zhen's house, he held a flashlight, approached the wall, and walked forward neither fast nor slow.
As far as his eyes could see, he saw Jian Xin and Zhuo Zhengyuan, who caused Wang Yafei's death.
Their flashlight was very faint, and it seemed that a new battery had to be replaced.
In the dim and swaying glow, the couple walked eagerly, as if they were afraid of some monster that would pounce in the darkness.
Shang Jianyao's pace accelerated slightly, and then returned to normal, watching the dim light representing Jian Xin and Zhuo Zhengyuan disappear around the corner.
…………
7:50 a.m., Room 14, Floor 647.
Shang Jianyao didn't wait for Long Yuehong to join him, and came to the room assigned to the "old tune team" first.
As he expected, Jiang Baimian had already arrived and was sitting in his seat, holding a pen in a daze.
Sensing that Shang Jianyao entered the door, Jiang Baimian waved:
"Some gains."
Shang Jianyao brushed the ground and jumped over.
「…… The action doesn't need to be so exaggerated." Jiang Baimian's expression was a little dull.
"Brain twitching." Shang Jianyao explained seriously.
"Okay, I know you have a doctor's certificate." Jiang Baimian sighed helplessly.
She turned to a serious expression and said:
"The initial clue is that the Awoken person is likely a resident of the 478th floor, or works there."
Before Shang Jianyao spoke, she roughly explained the source of the clues and the basis for judgment, and finally said:
"You can try to ask the person named Jian Xin to see if she noticed which resident on this floor did not go to work on the day of Wang Yafei's death, or the employees of the 'activity center', primary school, and 'order supervision room', before and after Wang Yafei's death, who had been close to the 'material supply market'?"
"What if there is none? Not at all." Shang Jianyao asked rhetorically.
Jiang Baimian smiled:
"That means that the Awakened person is likely to be a member of the 'Material Supply Market' on the 478th floor, and when the time comes, find a friend who lives on that floor, find a time to eat, go around, and observe whether those employees are different from ordinary people.
"You can also understand this through Jian Xin."
Speaking of this, she advised:
"But don't go recently, it's best to wait a few days, in a place like the 'activity center', when there are a lot of people around, find a secluded corner and ask, and, to be tactful, don't be so direct, it will scare the other party.
"I know you are not afraid of causing danger to yourself, but you have to consider whether this will bring danger to the other party, you shouldn't want to do something about Shen Du again, right?"
Shang Jianyao said calmly:
"I'm afraid too."
"It's just that there are some things that you have to do no matter how scared you are."
Jiang Baimian said "hmm":
"Okay, go read the information, forget about this matter in the next few days, don't think about it again."
Shang Jianyao turned around and turned back:
"I have one more question."
"What?" Jiang Baimian was suddenly a little scared, worried about what was a big deal.
Shang Jianyao thought for a moment and said:
"How can a person overcome the hidden fear in his heart?"
Jiang Baimian's eyes widened suddenly, and he subconsciously shrank back.
She looked at Shang Jianyao suspiciously:
"Why are you asking this question all of a sudden?"
Shang Jianyao said confidently:
"Have you forgotten?
"Du Heng said that to enter the 'Sea of Origin', you need to face your inner fears and overcome them one by one."
"Oh, I thought this matter was ......" Jiang Baimian shut up in time and suddenly woke up, "Have you entered the 'Sea of Origin'?"
Shang Jianyao nodded.
"When did it happen? Has there been any change in ability?" Jiang Baimian blurted out.
Shang Jianyao was very frank:
"No."
"Yes, you haven't overcome at least one fear in your heart......" Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully.
She hesitated for a moment and decided to be direct:
"What fear are you facing now?
"Only by understanding the specific situation can I find a suitable solution."
Shang Jianyao didn't speak, took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over.
Jiang Baimian reached out and took the paper and quickly unfolded it.
What caught her eye were many disordered blue lines.
These lines from the ballpoint pen seem to be connected into a shadow, enclosing a circle in the middle and "eroding" into it.
And on the edge of the paper, above the messy lines, there are two other circles.
In addition, there is a large blank space.
Jiang Baimian looked at it carefully for a while, and combined with Shang Jianyao's information, he vaguely had some ideas.
She said after consideration:
"In the past two days, I will try to think about it and hope to give you some suggestions as soon as possible."
After saying that, she seemed to remember something and asked curiously:
"This is the painting you drew in the car, when Qiao Chu ordered you to paint?"
"Do you remember?" Shang Jianyao did not hide his surprise.
The smile on Jiang Baimian's face gradually became obvious:
"I said that I have always been very careful and vindictive."
Shang Jianyao was about to respond when Bai Chen and Long Yuehong entered the room one after another.
Jiang Baimian immediately stood up and said with a smile:
"There are still two days left at most, and we will know what items we can get back and how much compensation we can get."
…………
On this day, Shang Jianyao and others spent time reading materials and doing various trainings, which was plain and fulfilling.
After dinner, when he returned home, Shang Jianyao thought about it and went to the "Activity Center" again.
He glanced over and saw Long Yuehong chatting with a beautiful girl with short hair in the corner.
Shang Jianyao couldn't help but shake his head.
"Do you also think Long Yuehong is silly, the first time you meet a girl, you actually made an appointment to chat at the 'activity center'?" At this time, a crisp female voice rang in Shang Jianyao's ears.
Shang Jianyao looked sideways and found that it was Meng Xia.
This girl is in the same age group as Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong, and Yang Zhenyuan, and they live on the same floor, so they must have a classmate relationship and are quite familiar with each other.
Meng Xia was tall, with a clean and delicate face, wearing a long camel coat, looking much more mature than before.
There was also a man beside her, in his twenties, with a height of 1.70 meters, only comparable to Meng Xia.
He looked quite good, but his skin was a little tanned, his face was full of traces of wind and frost, and his eyes were quite sharp.
Meng Xia and the man held hands, as if they didn't want to be separated for a moment.
"Yes." Shang Jianyao responded to Meng Xia's evaluation of Long Yuehong.
Meng Xia suddenly smiled and said:
"My husband just said that this is normal.
"Really, how noisy it is here, how nice it is to take a walk on a secluded street."
Shang Jianyao nodded:
"He's useless.
"He should sing a song as soon as we meet."
"......" Meng Xia didn't know how to respond.
Fortunately, Shang Jianyao did not continue this topic, and looked at the man beside Meng Xia and said:
"Your husband?"
He remembered that the husband assigned to Mengxia was a wanderer from the wilderness and was currently a D4 level employee.
Therefore, Meng Xia had already moved to the 622nd floor where the other party was, and it was usually difficult to meet her here.
"Well, Zhang Lei." Meng Xia introduced, "This is my classmate, Shang Jianyao, who has just been to the surface."
Zhang Lei took a step forward, stretched out his right hand and said:
"Hello."
He was very accustomed to blocking Meng Xia behind him.
"Hello." Shang Jianyao shook hands with the other party.
"Why are you back?" He turned to ask Meng Xia again.
"Isn't something wrong with Uncle Shen? Come back to see your parents." Meng Xia sighed.
Shang Jianyao thought for a while, and suddenly said:
"Lend it to your husband."
"Huh?" Meng Xia looked dazed.
Shang Jianyao explained politely:
"There are some things I want to ask."
Meng Xia laughed:
"Go, don't borrow it for too long."
and Zhang Lei came to the uninhabited corner of the "activity center", and after sitting down separately, Shang Jianyao asked directly:
"Do you know about the year and the awakened?"
Zhang Lei raised his eyebrows:
"Xia Xia said that you have been to the surface, and it seems that you know a lot of things.
"Well, I've been wandering in the wilderness for many years, and I know a few things."
Shang Jianyao thought for a moment and said:
"Then have you ever met an awakened person who can affect other people's hearts?"
Zhang Lei's expression gradually became serious:
"Yes, but not me, but a friend of mine.
"When he was in Weed City, he made a bet with a member of the Long Night Order that arm wrestling would determine victory or defeat.
"As a result, when he was about to win, his heart suddenly beat wildly, and he almost couldn't calm down."
Shang Jianyao thought for a while and said:
"Which year does the Long Night Order believe in?"
Zhang Lei glanced left and right, and said in a deep voice:
"Commanding Command."
PS: The third watch asks for a monthly pass~ The next few days will be slowed down, and the two watches will be resumed, and it will be gone in the early morning. I think they will do it again before the double ends.
