When they went there was a team of twelve, and when they came back they became eleven.

Marco was the only one who died in "borderless cause and effect".

The death rate in the S-level difficulty "World" is already very high, and it is normal for personnel to be damaged. Only one person died is a very good result.

If it hadn't been for the message from Ji Shu, although Bing Hao would ask the person concerned about the cause of Marco's death afterwards, he probably wouldn't suspect Baroque and tattoos.

"I have no idea."

Ji Lu replied:

"Our two groups act separately in the maze, and there is no connection between each other."

He spread his hands, "So, I'm not sure what happened on your side."

Bing Hao nodded.

Judging from his expression, the white-haired youth seemed not surprised by this answer.

Although he didn't know Ji Yu for a long time, it only took less than two months to get a good deal.

But for some reason, Ji Xiaoniao has a trustworthy temperament on him, and it turns out that he has never failed his companions.

To be sure, it was Ji Shu who pointed out that Baroque was a traitor, and there was no substantive evidence to prove this except for what he claimed to be "back in time."

Even so, in the face of Bing Hao's sharp and straightforward information, Ji Lu did not add any subjective conjecture to Baroque.

——I don’t know, I don’t know.

On the contrary, Ji Xiaoniao's calm attitude made people feel that he did not lie.

In fact, when Ji Yu said that he had gone through the maze twice, Bing Shi unexpectedly felt a sense of realization.

In this way, all the places he felt violated before suddenly became explainable.

As a participant who has personally entered the maze of the Vatican Flower Palace, Bing Hao has confidence in the abilities of himself and his companions.

Everyone he brought, even Su Rong and the robot with relatively weak combat effectiveness, was placed in the entire "Peach Blossom Spring", and they were also experienced first-class players who had cleared the level of S-level difficulty "World" many times.

He admits that there is indeed a gap in the strength between him and the "Lan Ling King", and that even he himself doesn't know how big the gap is.

It's just that the "Vatican" arranged for them a huge three-layer three-dimensional maze.

In addition to overwhelming combat power and keen observation, trying to break through a maze depends largely on extraordinary luck.

Therefore, Ji Lu and Ren Jianmo were able to clear the customs quickly at a significant pace faster than the other groups. In addition to the good luck, perhaps there is really only the possibility of "because they know the customs clearance route in advance". NS.

Thinking of this, Bing Hao let out a sigh of relief quietly.

Bing Hao clearly remembered that before leaving "Borderless Cause and Effect" and returning to "Peach Blossom Spring", he and Zero were trapped in the deepest part of the mirror house, fighting the monsters hidden in the mirror.

In order to protect him, Zero had dozens of knives in his body at the time, and his whole person had become a blood gourd, already dead.

If it was delayed for another half a minute...no, ten seconds or so, Zero would really be dead.

Therefore, it can be said that if Ji Yu and Ren Jianmo had not cleared the customs in time and brought him back to the "Peach Blossom Spring" when Zero was dying, then Bing Yu had lost his shadow, his closest and loyal companion, and His half-length.

Bing Hao is actually very grateful to them.

In addition, Bingyu did not tell Ji Xing about their situation at the time, but when Ji Xiaoniao recalled the timeline of his first pass, he clearly pointed out the approximate time of Zero's death.

Bing Hao summed up in his heart, and it was indeed almost the same as the two of them were in the mirror castle.

Such a superposition of the two sides confirms the credibility of Ji Xiaoniao's "Retrospect of Time" rhetoric.

So Bing Hao exposed the scene of Marco's death, and instead asked carefully about the details of the last contact between Ji Shu and Baroque.

Ji Xiaoniao didn't hide it either.

He explained how he noticed the Baroque anomaly, and how he designed with Ren Jianmo to lure the other party to tear off the disguise.

"Because time was tight at the time, Mr. Ren only asked him two questions."

Ji Shu finally added.

Bing Hao frowned and tapped his fingers on the table twice.

In this limited information, he knew at least two pieces of information.

The first is that Baroque can indeed obtain another person's abilities by some means, and the second is that Baroque has a murderous intent on him.

——In this way, it is enough.

Bing Hao nodded.

He will not let go of daring to calculate the malignant tumor of him and his team.

He will investigate everything to the bottom, and then let the traitor get what he deserves.

"Thank you for telling me this."

Bing Ha picked up the two halves of the paper man on the table, put it back in his pocket, and slightly changed his sitting posture.

"Then, as a thank you."

The white-haired young man said:

"I will also tell you what I know."

Ji Lu, Mo Tiangen, and Fan's sister and brother looked at him together.

Bing Hao asked:

"How much do you know about Mr. Ren's past?"

Ji Lu opened his eyes wide: "What do you mean?"

"Mr. Ren entered the'Peach Blossom Spring' by the same group as us, and it has only been half a year now."

Teacher Dagen also frowned:

"Apart from being too strong, what'past' is there?"

He touched his chin, "Could he be a big star before?"

"Although I don't know why he will appear in the same novice'world' with you."

Bing Hao shook his head and said the information he had inquired from the stork.

"However, there is no doubt that Mr. Ren is the strongest person in the'Peach Blossom Spring' that has been missing for a long time, the'Lanling King'."

&&&&&&&&&

On June 17, at 8:15 in the morning.

Apartment building, Wisteria Room 0010.

"Hey."

Ren Jianmo, who was sitting at the dining table having breakfast, suddenly spoke.

A black cat got out from behind the corner of the sofa and quietly jumped onto the chair opposite him.

"Is that person still there?"

Ren Jianmo omitted the subject.

"exist."

The black cat answered.

Hearing this answer, Ren Jianmo's right hand holding the knife obviously paused, and the corner of his mouth was slightly pursed.

"..."

He was silent for a few seconds and asked:

"When did it start?"

The artificial intelligence still understood the owner's endless question, and quickly gave the answer.

"It started at 5:30 in the morning."

Ren Jianmo's knife cut open the sweet-boiled egg, and the tip knocked on the bone china plate with a crisp and loud "pang" sound.

The golden half-solidified egg yolk slowly flowed out and gathered at the edge of the dish, forming a beautiful crescent-shaped pattern.

"..."

Ren Jianmo put down the knife and fork, stood up, and walked straight to the window.

He reached out and wiped the control panel.

The deep ocean outside the window faded in an instant, revealing what a piece of ordinary floor-to-ceiling glass should look like.

Ren Jianmo looked out through the window glass.

The apartments where the participants live are like hanging boxes on a ropeway, hung on the iron ropes. Every minute and every second surrounds a thick pillar, following a long and continuous "∞"-shaped trajectory. Back and forth.

The room where Ren Jianmo lived was now marching to the middle section of the pillar, barely still under the clouds, so that there was no white invisible outside.

It's just a pity that it is located on the back of the pillar. From the current angle, you can't see the entrance and exit of the apartment.

Ren Jianmo stood motionless in front of the window and waited patiently for fifteen minutes.

The room finally turned slowly to the front of the pillar.

It’s just that as it rotates its angle, its height has also risen a bit, and it is already very close to the clouds, so Ren Jianmo can only see through a layer of white haze shadows on the ground with star points smaller than the tip of the needle. Can't tell which one is the curly brat that upset him.

Before coming to "Peach Blossom Spring", Ren Jianmo spent most of his twenty-four years in the research institute.

Although the research institute is not harsh on him.

In order to let the precious experimental individual have a complete and healthy personality, the institute will use "scientific" methods to train him from childhood to adulthood, including appropriate social and social contacts.

After he reached the age of eighteen, the institute no longer restricted his actions as a "guardian".

Ren Jianmo was allowed to enter and leave the organization at will, like an ordinary office worker, with working days and rest days, and free time, he could go wherever he wanted.

On the surface, he seemed to have become a normal person.

But Ren Jianmo is actually very clear that he has never been free in the true sense.

On the spinous process of his sixth cervical vertebra, there is an electronic chip with the size of a grain of rice.

The chip has three functions.

Firstly, it can monitor the host’s vital signs anytime and anywhere. Secondly, it is also a clear monitoring system that can record, upload and analyze any sound around him in real time. Third, it can accurately locate the host, even if it goes into the sky. Can't hide from the research institute's tracking.

If Ren Jianmo has any changes, whether it is trying to reveal his life experience or the secrets of his work place, or intending to escape the control of the institute, the chip will release sufficient nerve paralytic toxins within a tenth of a second to make him on the spot. Loss of consciousness.

It's not that Ren Jianmo can't get the chip out, he just doesn't think it is necessary.

He has nothing to do, no one to see, no place to go.

It's like a wild beast born and raised in a zoo. When used to staying in a cage, he doesn't want to go back to the wild.

Being in the research institute or in any corner of the world makes no difference to Ren Jianmo.

...

"Tsk."

He spoke lowly.

Then, Ren Jianmo seemed to suddenly realize how ridiculous his behavior of standing by the window was. He stretched out his hand to restore the French window to a holographic projection of the deep sea, returned to the dining table, and continued to eat his share of what was completely cold. breakfast.

The author has something to say:

Bing Hao: Come and go with courtesy, I will help you lift his vest! ==+
