Overturned Tower

Vol 2 Chapter 14: The Phantom Betrayer

【Overturned Tower】【】

On the surface, Russell is sitting quietly and obediently in the pizzeria in the form of Alice, while Delphinium is curled up and resting on Alice's lap.

But in fact, there is another picture in Russell's mind at this moment—sharing everything she sees with delphinium.

In this way, he personally experienced the dexterity of Delphinium's cyber incarnation. It's like watching a holographic image, watching Delphinium occasionally escape into the nothingness of pure data, leap and run skillfully in the network, and control all the cameras around it.

It's like a virtual hunter who only lives on the Internet.

The pure white wolf spirit was running freely, following behind the man who looked a bit crazy, following the various traces left by the man.

While distracted by the vision reflected in her mind, Alice nodded to the waiter who brought the food, showing a gentle and polite smile.

She pointed her eyes at the delphinium, and at the same time put her hand to her lips, making a "shh-" motion.

The young waiter immediately understood what she meant and nodded repeatedly. He hastily covered his mouth with his hand, indicating that he would not wake up the delphinium.

The child was obviously still a little worried - after he returned, he immediately grabbed the other waiters who were laughing and talking, and whispered something. At the same time, he looked towards Alice.

...What an overzealous kid.

Alice was a little helpless, but she didn't correct the other party's misunderstanding.

Instead, she clasped her hands together, closed one eye, and tilted her head to make a cute request.

In fact, just because Alice guessed that the other party would ask the question "Is this lady asleep?", she simply signaled in advance that Delphinium was asleep.

In the end, he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so great.

Is it because of the looks of himself and the delphinium?

Or, is it simply a good mood or a nice person?

But that doesn't matter. Since the other party has good intentions and wants to help them, of course Alice will not try to correct the other party's misunderstanding—

With Alice's gentle personality, not only will she not explain clearly when the other party misunderstood, but she will simply turn around and ask the other party generously, so as to cater to and satisfy the other party's kindness.

We can't let good people be disappointed by doing bad things with good intentions after they have good intentions—if it's not troublesome, it's better to cater to them or help them secretly, so that this "good thing" that was originally misunderstood will come true.

In this way, I only paid a small price for cooperating with the other party to play a scene. But the other party can get positive feedback and "girl's gratitude" because of his kind thoughts and deeds. In this way, the mood of the other party will also improve.

It is a pure joy of "self-actualization". It is so powerful that it may even reverse a person's psyche and even save a person.

Taking a step back, it is also possible to increase the "sum of happiness" and "sum of goodness" within this group.

This kind of thinking mode is completely different from Russell's...it doesn't care about the truth or justice, but puts itself in everyone's shoes. Not only to protect the safety of the other party, but also to protect the dignity and belief of the other party.

This kind of gentleness as delicate as water, bland and invisible, is exactly Alice's way of doing things.

At this moment, in Russell's mind, the thinking core belonging to "Russell" was temporarily separated.

Just like a CPU with multi-core computing, Russell remained completely calm and objective while thinking.

For the first time, from such a close distance... he came into contact with "the truth of the past".

Those doubts that he had temporarily shelved and silently remembered in his heart also gradually surfaced at this moment.

—First of all, the act of cursing and killing itself is unnatural.

When Alice first left Happy Island, she was not yet anonymous.

As long as you send mercenaries there, you can also assassinate her. Those who can investigate psykers who have concealed their identities, force or request them to perform curse killings... Such people must also be able to afford mercenaries.

Why do you have to let a weak psyker with two levels of strength try to curse Alice?

It doesn't help at all.

Sheath's identity at the time was the bishop of the Cyber ​​Church. Although Russell doesn't know if the sheath can do this kind of thing... But the Cyber ​​Church can bless others and heal wounds through the power of the Holy Order. This weak curse should also be easily removed.

One piece of evidence is that in Nan Liujing's memory, there has never been a scene where Alice was weak or fell ill. Before the sheath left her, she hadn't even been sick.

That is a matter of course, the next question is...why did the sheath leave Alice?

And why did Alice stay quietly on Sogo Island for more than 20 years?

Even if it was to hide his identity, it was too long. For twenty years, the sheath has never returned, and Alice has never complained to Russell about him...

Moreover, if the sheath had betrayed the Tower of Babel at that time, then Alice's hiding place should have become unsafe.

Why didn't Alice evacuate?

Correspondingly, the third question is—why did the second curse kill against Alice increase to four people, and the success rate suddenly increased?

Russell remembered that Alice was not the only one who was cursed to death half a year ago.

"Doctor", "Du Juan", "Lycoris", "Aurora".

Within three months, four official members were cursed to death one after another. And this is the motivation that made Bad Day try to contact Russell and pull him into the Tower of Babel for protection.

According to what he and Lu Shouxiang ~www.wuxiahere.com~ leaked this information, it was a traitor related to the internal high-level personnel.

Bad Day strongly suspects that the "sheath" of Babel has been betrayed, but there is no proof. Russell at the time believed that this might be a prejudice, an arbitrary judgment mixed with personal emotions.

Thinkers

But now, after seeing the "monkey-faced eagle", Russell suddenly realized—is it really so easy for the members of the Tower of Babel to betray the head of the deer?

The technology developed by the monkey-faced eagle is the same as that of the deer head.

The next... and most critical question is.

Who is that "betrayer"? Or, does this betrayer really exist?

Looking back now, the sheath had left Babel for twenty years.

Twenty years—could he really still enter the back door of that year?

【Overturned Tower】【】

In twenty years, this back door has never been repaired or reset?

And, what exactly is the back door of the Tower of Babel? Why is it only known to high-level people?

Today's Russell should be considered a high-level person. Whether it's status, background or ability...his status within the Tower of Babel must at least be at the level of a cadre.

So, what separates Russell from the others?

After thinking about the "peripheral members" he had met, Russell knew the answer.

—The so-called "high-level Tower of Babel", the only difference from the ordinary members of the Tower of Babel...

The question is whether they have [seen the body of the deer head with their own eyes].
