In the dark room, an air mattress was placed in the center of the floor, and the person on the bed was wrapped in a thin blanket, sleeping soundly with messy hair.The room was very narrow, the bed alone took up most of the area, and the rest of the space couldn't even fit a wardrobe, the clothes were thrown in a mess in the corner, and the medicine boxes were piled up beside the bed.

There are no windows in the room, only a hole is opened in the high part of the wall, and a ventilation fan is installed, and the dark yellow light penetrates through the gap.The fan blades rotated slowly, and the hazy light and shadow passed over the face of the person on the bed. Rosie moved her eyelashes in a half-dream and half-awake, and opened her eyes sleepily.

There were still traces of the dream on his face, which gradually disappeared like the ebbing tide.Rosie got up drowsily, grabbed a shirt and put it on. While buttoning the buttons, a sporadic fragment suddenly flashed back in his mind, which made him wake up suddenly, sat up straight, and almost pulled a button with his fingers.

Last night, he failed to continue the quarrel with Deng Huailing, so he ran away in despair.After breaking out of the Huanhai system, he passed the business card to Piper, and he plunged into the temporary residence Piper arranged for him to sleep, trying to use deep sleep to forget what Deng Huailing said to him.

But the man didn't let him go even in his dream, and Rosie had a horrifyingly real dream, and all the scenes were vivid.

He dreamed that he sneaked into the main city, followed Deng Huailing to apologize, and begged the other party to give him a chance to clarify.Deng Huailing walked ahead impatiently, while he chased the erratic corner of his clothes in the wind. On the way, he passed the hunter's guild where the other party often went, and passed the factory where Deng Huailing put the ring on him.Neither looked back at him.

In the end, night fell with heavy rain, and Rosie could no longer find Deng Huailing in the huge city.He was wandering among the neon lights, drenched by the rain, and finally made up his mind to ring the doorbell of the other party's apartment.

It was Rosie who came to open the door. The little android who looked exactly like him showed a warm smile and generously ushered him in.He took the towel handed by Rosie, shivering on the cat cushion in the corner, through the wet hair, he saw Deng Huailing coming out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, whispering and hugging Rosie's waist, put the bionic man against the door frame and kissed.

Luoxi couldn't move at all, and stared blankly at the two people who kissed from the bathroom to the bedroom, and fell on the bed. Deng Huailing unbuttoned Rosie's clothes, and the clothes slipped off to reveal a smooth back. There was no scar on it, and it was dazzlingly white.He touched his arm again, and the surface of the skin was covered with new and old injuries, so that when he wore a dress to sneak into the banquet, he had to wear long gloves to cover it up.

Not just his arms, Luoxi's whole body is covered with hideous scars. For a warrior, this is a proof of the highest honor, but in front of clean and beautiful bionics, these scars make him feel ashamed.He saw Deng Huailing's hand caressing Rosie's naked back behind the bedroom door. The latter noticed the sight outside the door and turned back to give him a slight smile.

For a moment, Luoxi felt that he was hit by a huge panic, and jealousy, humility, shame, and powerlessness swept through his heart like a torrent.Although he knew that this was just a dream, that Rosie did not have such a character, and that he could not even complete the detailed follow-up process due to his lack of experience, Rosie gradually understood what he had been worrying about all this time.

He was worried that Deng Huailing loved him so much that he would risk his life, it was true; but what he was more worried about was that the other party did not love him.He was afraid that Deng Huailing would confuse love, transfer the part that belonged to Rosie to him, or simply treat him as a substitute for Rosie, and sacrifice and give everything for him in a muddle like this.

Roxi's pride refused to accept such love.Facts have also proved that Deng Huailing did not think clearly at first, what the other party has always been obsessed with is Rosie's phantom-according to Deng Huailing's original words, he has the same face, but it is just a bonus.The little hunter entangled with him in exchange for a vengeful kiss, which not only punished him, but also satisfied Deng Huailing's imagination of Rosie.

In the end, no one liked the real, scarred him.Rosie raised the corner of her mouth, how could he allow Deng Huailing to get the lock of the brain?I took away a kiss this time, what do you want to take away next time?

His expression turned serious, he put on his shirt and trousers, combed his hair, and went out with the toiletries.He temporarily lives in the underground military building of East 3. For the convenience of deployment, Piper specially set up a separate operation unit of the Magic Sea system. Rosie still maintains the old habit of living in the same place as the soldiers in the team.

If it weren't for the constant discussion of tactics and the need for some privacy, he would probably have moved into a dormitory.Rosie walked around the cleaning robot wandering in the hallway and stepped into the bathroom. Just as he was holding the sink with his mouth full of foam, the communicator rang.

"Piper?" he answered vaguely.

"The business card you gave me yesterday, I followed the above information to find some clues. Apart from the four coordinates that hide the key clues, there are a series of less important small locations, which are the easter eggs left by Cesina..” Piper’s voice was tired, as if he hadn’t slept all night.

Rosie was stunned for a moment, remembering that the flow of time in the Magic Sea system was 24 times faster than in reality, seven hours had passed since he fell asleep, that is, seven days in the Lost City, if he got the business card and looked it up immediately, he would know whereDid Cecina go to Dashawn in a week?

"She contacted DaShawn." Before he could ask, Piper gave an affirmative answer, "Not only that, they fell in love madly in a very short period of time, and Cecina was in every dating placeRe-enacted her love memory and saved it as an Easter egg in the Lost City."

"Thanks for your hard work." Rosie quickly followed her train of thought, "So among these Easter eggs, are there any clues related to the brain lock?"

"Not for the time being, the reason why easter eggs are easter eggs is because they are not that important." Piper said in a regretful tone, "At present, it seems that Cecina just wants to show her secret love history to future generations, so that they will not be buried in historyin the dust."

She paused for a while, and said dissatisfiedly, "I asked my subordinates to record all the dating process, and the texts have also been sorted out, except for the endless love words, which are the vows between lovers. Can you imagine Cesina asking in the tone of a little woman?"Do you really love her or the way I'm? It's so frustrating."

Rosie chuckled. He switched the communicator to his other hand, washing off the foam. "Just because your perfect image of Cecina has collapsed?"

"That's Cecina von Richthofen," Piper yelled indignantly, and Rosie could almost picture her freaking out on the other end, "my Wisdom since childhood!In this male-dominated world, her invention saved all mankind and named the city after herself. How can she delay in petty love and take the initiative to surrender to men? This is simply a betrayal of women!"

Rosie couldn't breathe from laughing.

"You're still laughing! You know how I got over it when I first became an adjudicator? I flipped through Cecina's biography and slipped into town to visit her memorial museum—oh, you're still in Bloody ChristmasLooting that museum and taking the Black Ring away completely shattered my spiritual sustenance."

"I know," Rosie pleaded, "I noticed you idolized her, and those rings were meant to be given to you. I swear to God, I only snatched this one place... just didn't get a chance to hand it over later.Once it is in your hands, it will be passed on to someone else."

Piper fell silent, seeming a little moved and a little annoyed.After a while, she said, "Then do you know why I regard Cecina so important?"

"Why?" Rosie asked.

"When I was young, my mother and I lived in West 5," said Piper, embarrassed to use a provocative tone, so he pretended to be casual, "Now that place is much more prosperous, but the core remains the same, women are thereIt can be traded privately. I am a child born to my mother with an unknown man...but she loves me very much, she takes the money she stole and sold to send me to school, and she carefully avoids me when receiving clients."

"She picked up an autobiography of Cecina, full of inspirational words, and she always read it to me in a rough pronunciation, and put it next to her bed even when she was sleeping with someone. One day I picked it up.It, found the book cover covered in semen." Piper laughed, "Mother tried to tell me that even as a woman, someone can live like that, and even if she can't set an example for me, I have an illusionrole model."

The last bit of the smile on Rosie's face also subsided. He knew the background of each adjudicator. Piper's mother was raped to death more than 20 years ago, and she had witnessed it all.She should be a little sad to bring up the old story, but Rosie is not sure whether to comfort her, and Piper puts on a look of indifference, just not wanting him to care.

"You don't need illusory role models anymore." Rosie said earnestly, hearing Piper's soft breathing on the communicator, "No matter what kind of love history Cecina has, whether she surrenders to men or not is none of your business. YouYour beliefs are strong enough to guide you down a long road, and you don't need the strength of others. Besides, most great people are not even as good as ordinary people in emotional matters."

Piper listened to the first half of his words without making a sound, until Rosie mentioned the last sentence, she couldn't help laughing: "Is it possible that a great man can't handle his emotional problems, so he empathizes with me?But seeing you and Deng Huailing fighting in the garden in full swing, it turns out that whoever the bandit likes will use force."

Rosie was speechless.The sharp-tongued woman hit him where it hurt, apparently to avenge the ridicule he had made a few minutes earlier.But Piper was right, he really didn't know how to communicate with Deng Huailing, and it seemed that there was no need to communicate.

Piper "hummed" proudly, and said, "Let's not talk about feelings anymore. Although we don't want to, we still have to look at those easter eggs together and confirm the next step. I notified the killer and Parisa,The online meeting starts in ten minutes, come to my office."
