Number One Player - Chapter 262

When the strategy meeting was over, the time had pointed to seven o’clock in the evening.

Shang Yinhe walked out of the conference room together with the flow of people. Before he took a few steps, Captain Mu Shiming came to him with a smile, and patted Shang Yinhe’s shoulder enthusiastically: “Speaking of which, Yinhe, you haven’t seen the movie in which you guest starred, right?

“‘The Extraordinary Earth’? I really haven’t watched it yet,” Shang Yinhe shrugged regretfully, “When this film premiered, I was just starting the endgame campaign; All kinds of chores are handed over; when you return to China, it is the triumphal ceremony and the meeting just now, how can you go to the movies?”

“That’s a pity,” Xu Shaoyang also joined up, “You don’t know, ‘The Extraordinary Earth’ is now well-received and the box office is booming, it’s so popular!”

Shang Yinhe laughed: “So, the quality of the movie is not bad? I heard you always say that you have to be in a hurry, in a hurry, and you thought the quality of the movie would be mediocre.”

“Yes, the quality of the movie is very explosive,” Mo Shiming praised sincerely, “The script, special effects, emotional rendering, rhythm control… Everything is in place, it’s really hard to imagine that this is our only It took half a year to drive out a movie, I thought it would be the kind of shoddy stuff.”

“Hey, I put a lot of effort into it!” Xu Shaoyang protested, “What is shoddy stuff?”

“Shaoyang did a really good job this time, the theme of the movie is very charming,” Nie Zhibo interjected, “the theme of the homeland is behind us, and I can give up everything in order to protect it is really fascinating. resonance.”

“Yeah, so, Yinhe,” Mo Shiming invited, “Would you like to watch this movie together tonight?”

“Of course I’d love to,” Shang Yinhe hesitated a bit, “but I think you’ve all seen the movie. Wouldn’t it be nice to watch a movie you’ve seen with me?”

“This movie is worth watching two or three times, and watching it once is not enough,” Mo Shiming laughed, “I’m the one mentioned on the Internet… What’s that called? Tap water?”

“Okay,” Shang Yinhe looked at Captain Mu Shiming in surprise. He, an old antique who was originally isolated from the Internet, now uses the Internet-based vocabulary of “tap water”, “Let’s go, I can’t wait to make Mu Shiming go. What kind of magical movie will the captain become tap water?”

“I have already asked someone to buy the tickets,” Mu Shiming took out two paper movie tickets from his pocket, “I guessed that you would agree.”

Looking at these two movie tickets, all the colleagues around showed meaningful smiles on their faces.

Xu Shaoyang was the first to speak: “I wish you a good night, let’s go first~”

Then Nie Zhibo also said goodbye: “Go to bed early at night, don’t stay up too long.”

Lu Yanchi, who was walking at the back, showed a narrow smile: “Then, say good night in advance.”

Shang Yinhe was confused by the farewell speeches of his colleagues and the hints of these two movie tickets. Coincidentally, the intuition in his mind started to call the police again, which made Shang Yinhe feel dumbfounded:

Etc., etc? Wouldn’t it be what he meant, would it?

————-

Facts have proved that Shang Yinhe seems to be a little bit selfish.

Mu Shiming bought milk tea with him normally, walked into the cinema with him normally, and watched the movie in silence.

– Are these things normal? Is it abnormal?

The movie is really good, even if he has an inexplicable mind, even if his intuition makes a fuss in his mind, Shang Yinhe is still very fascinated.

Two hours later, the two of them walked out of the theater together following the crowd at the end of the viewing.

Mo Shiming, who had been silent all the time while watching the movie, finally spoke up: “Galaxy…”

He hesitated for a moment, and then summoned the courage to continue: “…Speaking of which, we haven’t chatted for a long time.”

Shang Yinhe glanced at Captain Mu Shiming, then glanced at him again, and after struggling for a while, he gave a single-syllable answer: “Yes.”

“I know there’s a pretty good place nearby,” Mu Shiming said seriously, “it was originally a small desert, but later it became a nest of evolutionary animals and plants. After the nest was pulled out, the traffic was too inconvenient, so I just I left that mess there, and I haven’t had time to sort it out yet.”

Mu Shiming solemnly initiated the invitation: “There is no one there, and the scenery is pretty good, do you want to go shopping together?”

The intuition in Shang Yinhe’s mind jumped again.

He was a little inexplicable, a little surprised, and a little wary.

After hesitating for a while, Shang Yinhe finally replied, “Okay.”

Mo Shiming laughed. He stretched out his hand to Shang Yinhe: “Come on, I’ll show you the spatial coordinates.”

Shang Yinhe hesitated to hold Mu Shiming’s hand.

It’s been a long time since they launched space abilities together.

It’s a very strange feeling. The perceptions of two people are connected through physical contact, the world is divided and continued in the perception, the X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis, the three-dimensional coordinates are clearly visible in their world, and they are in another dimension together. Overlooking the world, their perceptions spread to the boundless distance together…

As if looking at flowers in the fog, listening to the tide in the waves, and as if separated by a hazy curtain, Shang Yinhe heard Mu Shiming’s voice coming from the slightly distant end: “You can let go…”

Shang Yinhe let go.

That sense of sustaining is broken, and the world is suddenly halved.

The people who saw the world with you also disappeared.

Shang Yinhe couldn’t help but take a deep breath before soothing his slightly fluctuating emotions.

The night was already deep. In this barren area, there are no lights, only the faint moonlight, barely reflecting the road ahead and the people around.

With the superhuman’s optimized vision, Shang Yinhe could barely see the expression on Mu Shiming’s face.

It didn’t look like some kind of apprehensive expression before confession, but… instead, it was a solemn, serious, and serious expression.

“How do you feel about this “Transcendent Earth” movie?” Mu Shiming spoke first. As he spoke, he stepped on the fine sand on the desert and walked forward.

“It’s really a great movie,” Shang Yinhe walked forward with Mu Shiming, “Xu Shaoyang did a really good job this time.”

Mu Shiming smiled and asked, “Then, Yinhe, who is your favorite in the movie?”

“Well…” Shang Yinhe thought for a while and gave an answer, “Let’s be the male protagonist, his growth is very real and moving.”

“I also like the male protagonist the most,” Mo Shiming said, “Do you know why this is?”

“why?”

“Because…because he always reminds me of something,” Mu Shiming seemed to be talking about the hero in the movie, and seemed to be implying something, “It is very tiring to shoulder the heavy responsibility of saving the world. things.”

Intuition is a slight jump.

The beating of this intuition has been very frequent recently, and Shang Yinhe is extremely skilled in pressing the intuition back into his mind, so as not to let it continue to interfere with his own thinking.

After reviewing the skill [Rationalization Fog] again to make sure that this skill is indeed turned on, Shang Yinhe replied slowly: “Maybe it will be very tiring, but I think, as long as you think about the meaning behind this responsibility Something, this heavy burden, seems to have become sweet.”

He pretended that Mu Shiming was really discussing the movie with him: “Look, at the end of the movie, how happy the actor’s smile is, and how moving the world is at peace. Even for such an ending, he should go there. take this responsibility.”

Mu Shiming seemed to be just discussing the plot of the movie with him: “Galaxy, do you think this movie actually has a bit of personal heroism?”

“I don’t think so,” Shang Yinhe said calmly, “I do think that the main concept of this film is a community with a shared future for mankind, and the feeling that all mankind is working together to save their own destiny is more shocking than individual heroism. .”

“That’s true,” Mu Shiming nodded thoughtfully, “In the face of such a large-scale disaster, one person’s strength is indeed not enough, the fate of mankind is indeed a community, and all mankind should save the earth. struggle.”

Intuition kept bouncing in his mind, and Shang Yinhe forced it down again.

After double-checking the opening status of [Rationalization Fog], Shang Yinhe decided not to talk about such a dangerous topic, and he began to forcibly change the topic: “Speaking of which, the special effects of this movie are simply shocking. It’s unimaginable, Our country can now make such awesome movies with special effects.”

“Yeah,” Mu Shiming smiled slightly and took over the topic of Shang Yinhe, “This movie uses a lot of new special effects technology, and also uses a lot of old movie shooting techniques—by the way, you know, The hero in the movie is an image edited directly from Jiuqu’s video, and then directly integrated into the big screen through a series of technical means.”

“Really?” Shang Yinhe showed a ceremonial smile.

But he has been secretly complaining in his heart.

– Strange, this topic, how come to such a dangerous area again?

– Could it be that there is a huge loophole in the [Rationalization Fog] produced by the system?

-Theoretically, it’s impossible…

As if tired of going around in circles like this, Mu Shiming went a step further and provoked a more sensitive topic: “By the way, Yinhe, do you think Jiuqu and the brave are the same person?”

“I don’t know,” Shang Yinhe chose his words carefully, “however, most people in society now recognize that they are one person.”

“I don’t know either,” Mu Shiming looked at Shang Yinhe thoughtfully, “but I think it’s very possible that they are not alone. Those so-called people who used to think that Jiuqu and the Brave are the same person. The real hammer evidence, and now it looks again, is full of flaws.”

Mu Shiming said: “In the beginning, we felt that the hero’s predictive ability in the white fog dungeon challenge video, the ability to know all the traps and crises in advance, and easily complete the white fog dungeon challenge, and Jiuqu’s ability to predict the world line in this video of the death of the gods has overlapped to a large extent, so we guess that Jiuqu and the brave are likely to be the same person.”

“Later, the brave man appeared in reality, by the way, at your alma mater,” Mu Shiming looked sideways at Shang Yinhe, with a smile on his face, “At that time, the brave man said in reality that I would make an announcement. ; Then, Jiuqu really issued an announcement. This is the real hammer that we say that ‘Jiuqu and the brave are one person’.”

Mu Shiming shrugged with a smile, and concluded: “Actually, all of these are speculations, just one-sided words, aren’t they?”

“Are Jiuqu and the Brave the same person?” Shang Yinhe narrowed his eyes slightly, “Is this important?”

“Is it important? Isn’t it important?” Mu Shiming’s smile faded a little, “We happened to discuss this matter. Yinhe, do you want to hear our analysis?”

Intuition began to sound the alarm.

It was bouncing, jumping, making noises in Shang Yinhe’s mind, and even exaggerated to the point of humming a song.

Shang Yinhe frowned slightly, and forcibly pressed back the tumultuous intuition in his mind again.

While dealing with his own intuition, Shang Yinhe said calmly, “It seems very interesting. Come, share?”

So Mu Shiming really started his own “sharing”:

“A long time ago, people have been guessing the real identities of Jiuqu and the brave. Using facial recognition technology and body type recognition technology, check the monitoring of roads and vehicles where the brave may appear, proofread the possible accents of the brave, and use the brave’s voice. The itinerary appears for identification and judgment…”

“But no matter what means are used, people can’t find any clues to Jiuqu and the brave.”

“When the brave man went to challenge the dungeon, he seemed to have fallen from the sky without any trace of traffic; when the brave man made a rapid rescue, he appeared in various cities around the world at a speed that surpassed the existing traffic on the earth. Facial recognition and body shape recognition have all failed, and the accent is more directly the standard accent of Huaguo News Network…”

Mu Shiming couldn’t help but add a sigh: “The hero’s anti-reconnaissance is really good.”

Shang Yinhe was no longer smiling.

“But now,” Mu Shiming continued, looking at Shang Yinhe, “in fact, we can still infer something.”

“First of all, the hero should have very strong camouflage skills. His very attractive appearance is probably a disguise of some kind of extraordinary ability or extraordinary props.”

Intuition seems to be playing the guitar in my head, plucking the strings again and again.

Shang Yinhe gave an “um” without changing his face, and commented: “An interesting guess.”

As if encouraged, Mu Shiming continued: “Secondly, the hero should have a strong spatial ability. Only in this way can he appear in every corner of the world without knowing it, and bypass the current society like a net like heaven and earth. monitoring.”

Intuition hit the drum, dong dong dong dong beat non-stop.

Shang Yinhe’s eyes drifted slightly: “There are not many space capable people in this world.”

“That’s right,” Mo Shiming nodded with a smile, “and, in terms of real space-capable powerhouses, in the current world, there are only you and me.”

“Speaking of which,” Mu Shiming looked at Shang Yinhe meaningfully, “Yinhe, your space ability was originally taught by me. Even now, some of your space use technologies still carry those you Those little tricks I’m all too familiar with.”

Shang Yinhe reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth as a response.

“In the end, the hero is probably not alone.” Mu Shiming retracted his gaze, “Especially, if the appearance of the hero is actually a disguise of an extraordinary item, then anyone who wears the disguise of the hero can Appearance, you can become a hero himself.”

“If you look at it from this point of view,” Mo Shiming said, “then some of the contradictions that seem to be conflicting schedules, as well as some alibi that used to confuse me, can be completely explained.”

Intuition is no longer jumping around in my head, but a rock concert directly in my head. The vocals, guitars, and drums are all ready. This is the prototype of a small rock band.

Shang Yinhe disliked his intuition for being too noisy, and once again forced it back into the depths of his mind.

Intuition is not to be noisy, but some things are still in reality, waiting for Shang Yinhe to deal with.

Their conversation now is like dancing on the edge of a cliff, and every word has a dangerous edge.

However, when the words were so straightforward, Shang Yinhe calmed down.

“Is this your own inference?” Shang Yinhe’s mouth even put on a shallow smile again, “It sounds very reasonable. However, I don’t seem to have seen such an article in the internal reference file? “

“I’m not that smart,” Mu Shiming also laughed, “It’s not entirely my own inference, but also with the help of others.”

“Other people’s help?” Shang Yinhe raised his eyebrows curiously, “Who?”

“Who else could it be? Those smart people we all know…” Mo Shiming said vaguely, “I provided some things, and everyone discussed the possibility, and that’s about it.”

“However, you don’t seem to tell others about this speculation,” Shang Yinhe’s smile deepened, “At least, I don’t seem to have seen any articles related to these in the internal reference.”

And there was nothing wrong with my trip back home this time.

“Yeah,” Mo Shiming said, “we really didn’t report it, we really kept this guess in our stomach.”

“Then why are you doing this?” Shang Yinhe was really curious now, “Is it because you think your guess is inaccurate? Or is it because you think your guess is too absurd and won’t convince others?”

This question made Mo Shiming silent for a while.

They walked along the desolate path, leaving shallow footprints in the desert.

“I joined the army very early,” Mu Shiming said after a long while, he did not answer the question directly, but talked about his own experience, “I also exposed my talent in combat very early on. .”

“Then, I was transferred to a national-level special force,” Mu Shiming fell into his memories, “I quickly emerged and became an elite figure in this force, with a first-class merit. Two second-class merits and five third-class merits have almost become mythical figures in the army known as the king of soldiers.”

Hua Guo’s first-class merit is not so good, to be able to get first-class merit in that peaceful era is almost equivalent to a god-like existence.

Basically, it is only possible to get a first-class merit in very few cases, such as winning the first place in a national military competition, winning the championship and runner-up in an international military competition, and sacrificing for the people. You know, once a soldier gets first-class merit in the army, the state will organize personnel to go to their parents’ home in their hometown to issue a certificate. [Note]

“Some of the tasks I have experienced are confidential tasks, forgive me for not being able to tell you the details of the tasks,” Mu Shiming’s face showed a unique sense of melancholy when recalling the past, “I can only say that my The experience may not be inferior to the plot in some movies.”

“Later, something happened, and I took the initiative to leave the special force that I knew and loved the most.” He looked at Shang Yinhe, “Do you know what happened?”

“What happened?” Shang Yinhe asked curiously.

“Actually, it’s nothing more than a few things…” Mu Shiming’s face showed a little disappointment.

He walked silently for a while before slowly opening his mouth.

“In one mission, according to the order of the superior, for some… some filthy political purposes…”

He paused and finally used the extremely derogatory term “dirty”. It sounded like that event still had a big impact on him.

“In short, I need to turn my back on my conscience, dump my teammates, do something…do something that’s totally against humanity.”

What he said was vague and simple, and his words were carefully chosen.

“I was young and frivolous at that time, I thought I was the eldest, my second child, and I was full of blood and justice, and belonged to that kind of decent soldier,” Mo Shiming laughed at himself, “How could I personally abandon those who I see as my own? Teammates for my family? How could I do that kind of thing with my own hands… that kind of thing that would get my hands completely dirty, make me have nightmares every day in the future, and never look back on it?”

In the thick night, Shang Yinhe turned his head slightly and looked at Mu Shiming.

The expression on his face was complicated. Disappointment, regret, memories… mixed feelings, but only no regrets.

When Mu Shiming first met him, he was assigned the task of teaching the relevant abilities of the Shang Galaxy space system.

Since he had been on non-stop assignments all over the country at that time, Mu Shiming didn’t have enough time to tutor Shang Yinhe, so he stayed up all night and made a copy of the experience of using space system powers, all the difficulties, experiences and skills he encountered. Plenty of money to teach.

There is no exclusion, no small shoes, only enthusiasm and sincerity. At that time, Shang Yinhe was deeply moved by Captain Mu Shiming’s warm-hearted actions, and deeply understood why Captain Mu Shiming was a model who claimed to be “ruthless and ruthless in treating the enemy like severe winter, and warm and enthusiastic in treating one’s own people like spring”.

Captain Mu Shiming, who has such a character, will indeed not do things that “will throw away teammates who are regarded as family” as he said, and “would completely get his hands dirty”.

“Actually,” Mo Shiming sighed, “thinking about it now, in fact, we should have taken on some of the dark side of the country. Where there is light, there is darkness. As a special force, we have to deal with some dirty things. of.”

“It’s just, it’s just…” he said in a daze, “I’m not such a person.”

“You are indeed not such a person.” Shang Yinhe said.

“Yeah, yeah…” Mu Shiming’s smile took on a bitter taste.

“Anyway, after that mission, I took the initiative to leave the special forces.”

“My boss has been keeping me. He said that there are actually many tasks in the army that don’t involve the dark side, just like the ones I did before. I can only do the tasks on the light side and put the dark side on the side. leave the task to others.”

“However, I ultimately refused.”

They fell silent again.

The wind lifted the grit, and there was a little charm to the eyes.

“You should know what happened later,” Mu Shiming said again, “I joined Lieutenant General Zhong Qingxiong’s army and pulled out an elite special force in the army by hand.”

“After the White Mist mutation, Lieutenant General Zhong Qingxiong’s army was transferred to the vicinity of the White Mist Temple. As the strongest soldier in the army, I began to challenge the White Mist dungeon, and finally successfully cleared the level and gained space ability. , and… also met you.”

“Galaxy,” Mu Shiming said, “I am now the deputy director of the logistics department of the Huaguo Transcendent Affairs Bureau. Due to the special nature of the Huaguo Transcendent Affairs Bureau, and also due to the particularity of this era, my current position is quite Yu Banji stepped into the high-level political circles of China.”

“Politics…Politics,” he sighed helplessly, “it can never be clean, it’s always full of compromises. It means that many times, you have to turn your back on your conscience. , to make certain choices.”

Shang Yinhe was silent, listening to Mu Shiming speak.

“Of course, people say that politicians have no conscience, and that politicians have black hearts,” Mo Shiming simply kicked a pebble in the desert, “I now think that this is really true. “

“My ability has become stronger, and my position has become higher,” he began to kick the sand again, “but what I miss most is when I was a special forces soldier.”

They fell silent again.

Mu Shiming was right at the beginning, the scenery in this area is indeed not bad.

The location here is not far from the famous scenic spot Mingsha Mountain Crescent Moon Spring. Although there are still some traces of war, but looking around, the earth under the moonlight has an empty and pleasant beauty.

In such a silent and empty world, it seems like a normal thing to tell your heart.

“You…” Shang Yinhe hesitated for a while before breaking the silence, “Captain Mu, are you saying that you don’t trust the high-level government of China?”

“There is no distrust. Our leaders are very good. They have lofty vision and exquisite layout. They have successfully brought China to the international status it is now,” Mo Shiming shook his head, “I just… I just don’t trust the nature of politics. .”

“Do you think,” after a pause, Mu Shiming asked, “Is it a good thing that the true identity of the brave is exposed?”
