Two-Dimensional Alien Species: Human Security Agency - Chapter 197
“We said as we walked, I want to find something.” Xie Zhifei walked towards the depths of the temple.
“Looking for something?” Agrace asked, but she kept up with her, “Is it Behemoth?”
“No,” Xie Zhifei shook his head, “it’s something else, but I don’t know exactly what it is.”
“Anyway, we’ll talk about this later. Let’s go back to the topic of exchanging information.” Xie Zhifei looked at the carvings on the temple, just like a church paints stories from the Bible on the walls. All are the deeds of the gods.
Here is a picture of a shirtless man fighting various monsters, Hercules? After seeing the trial of the famous golden apple, Xie Zhifei finally came to a conclusion. “We know about the same thing as you. The Mafia wants to use Behemoth to start a revolution against the church and even against the Big Four. The way they break the seal is through a serial murder case.”
“Murder case?” Agrace frowned, “It doesn’t sound very reliable, although it is very common to contact seals through blood sacrifices. It is a common method in ancient times. But why is it a serial murder case?”
“We don’t know about this either.” Ji Qinger shrugged, “We just investigated this. Every time we enter this dream world, it is after a new murder case occurs.”
“So we originally thought that the three of us might enter here because of the particularity of the Green Pool or the manager of the arena. This situation is uncontrollable.” Xie Zhifei turned to look at Agrace, “but according to Tang , it became controllable.”
“He didn’t know you two existed, and if he did, you two would have been hunted long ago. So it’s also impossible for him to know that we’ll be exchanging information here, so there’s no reason for him to lie to me.” Agrace said slightly After thinking about it, Jia replied. “After all, to him, I’m just a prisoner who has been completely controlled, and there is absolutely no need to lie to me.”
“Well,” Xie Zhifei nodded, “I think it’s the number of people that’s wrong. Do you remember what Tang told you?”
“He left a door behind the door, a treasure that people can’t refuse, and only a specific person can open it. The way to screen this specific person is through the mark of the arena of destiny.” Agrace recalled that time. Conversation with Tang, and described it in the simplest possible terms, “Then we pushed open the door by ourselves, because we took the initiative, so there was no way to resist.”
“Well, that’s the problem.” Xie Zhifei nodded, “If his target is you, there is absolutely no need for him to set the number of people passing through the gate to three of us. He only needs to catch one of you. .” He pointed to Agrace’s face.
“After all, it’s just a metaphor. He may only have a way to control the characteristics of opening the door, but there is no way to control the number of people. After all, he doesn’t know that there are two other people who have participated in the arena of destiny here.” Agrace retorted.
“No, he can.” Xie Zhifei interrupted decisively, “I entered this place once before you came to Sicily.” He turned to look at Ji Qinger.
“At that time, Qing’er and I were in the same winter house, separated by a wall, but she didn’t come in, I was alone. If it was said that they did the experiment to capture you, then it proved that they had already I have mastered how to control the number of people passing through the ‘door’.”
“That’s right, I really didn’t come in that time. I only found out about it after he woke up.” Ji Qinger nodded to confirm Xie Zhifei’s statement.
“If they just want to capture you, there is no need to widen the pass rate of the door at all. The fact that we all came in proves that they opened the door deliberately.”
“This…” Xie Zhifei’s logic was correct, and Agrace couldn’t think of anything to refute for a while.
“Actually, there is another possibility.” At this time, Xie Zhifei continued. “That is, as the ceremony of his door gradually progresses, the door they control becomes more and more stable, and more and more people can pass through,”
“Yes, this situation is also possible.” Agrace nodded, she almost had to think about this level.
“Qing’er, did you hear the nursery rhyme when you came in?” Xie Zhifei asked again.
“Well, I heard it.” Ji Qing’er replied.
“Where have you been?”
“Ten little Negroes dined out;
One choked to death and nine people remained.
Nine little blacks stay up late;
One overslept, and there were eight left.
Eight little blacks, going out to play;
One stayed there, seven left.
Seven little Negroes chopping wood;
One cuts himself in half and there are six left.
Six little **** to poke the honeycomb;
One wasp stings one and there are five left.
Five little black men enter the courthouse;
One was left with four remaining.
Four little black men came to the sea;
A red herring swallowed one and there were three left.
Three little black men walked into the zoo;
A big bear grabs one and there are two left. “Ji Qinger’s excellent memory makes her a good word, and she can even sing it with a decent melody. Lolita sings nursery rhymes, which are very suitable together.
But now Xie Zhifei doesn’t have the energy to sigh about this, “Two?” He nodded, “It’s the same as I thought. According to the second possibility, it has now reached the penultimate step of the ceremony.”
“So it can hold three people?”
“No, four.” Xie Zhifei replied. “It’s him I’m looking for.”
“The fourth person?” Agrace suddenly became horrified and looked around. “Didn’t you say you don’t know what you’re looking for?”
“This is also true, because I really don’t know what he is. I just think he is a person for the time being.” As the crowd advanced, they finally passed through the entire temple. Between the twisted woods, a winding path leads to the next shrine.
“Since the door is to be opened in two worlds and then let us special people in, have you ever thought, who is this person who set the door?” Just as he finished this sentence, a blood-red Lightning slammed through half of the sky, as if tearing the moon into two. Clouds instantly covered the entire sky.

Chapter 105 Capital
“Let’s make such an assumption.” The huge moon, which seemed to fall at any time, was submerged by dark clouds. As usual, it was followed by thunderstorms. Even though Behemoth was in a deep sleep, it was still affecting all the time. this world. Xie Zhifei did not care about the rainstorm that was about to fall, and continued his reasoning.
In this way of narration, he sorted out these messy things in his mind bit by bit, and at the same time, he also used the thinking of the other two to verify whether these logics are reasonable.
“The nursery rhymes we heard in our dreams had something to do with breaking the seal, and in fact, the number of couples who died because of ‘The Devil of Florence’ so far is exactly 8, just like the place where the nursery rhyme was sung. So the total number of people needed to unlock the seal should be ten, and now they have completed four-fifths of it.”
“If what you said about the connection between serial killers and the dream world is true, this should be a fact, not a conjecture.” Agrace nodded.
“That is indeed true,” Xie Zhifei emphasized again, “As for the conjecture, it is the next part.”
“Although the number of people is ten, but they are all together, we can assume that the node of the ceremony should be five, and as the ceremony is not completed by one-fifth, the door can be opened a little bigger to accommodate more Come in alone.”
“When you entered the dreamland for the first time, the ceremony was two-fifths completed.” Ji Qinger asked, “Agrace hadn’t come to Sicily at that time, but I really didn’t come in… Wait, You mean to say…”
“That’s right, the doorman. Or the doorman. I didn’t come in alone that time. I also met a little boy.” Xie Zhifei nodded.
“What happened to the little boy?” Agrace frowned, “Why haven’t I heard of this.”
“Just a little detail, I didn’t think he had anything to do with the mafia’s big moves when I exchanged information with you.
To put it simply, when I first came to this world, in a church on the top of a mountain, I met a little boy who called himself Edmond who was looking for something. I had a few conversations with him, and then a monster suddenly appeared and returned to reality. “
“My original investigation center was that monster. After all, compared to a little boy who can talk, a twisted monster that will take the initiative to attack people is far more like the cause of the incident.”
“Because of the reason that I met the gods for the second time, I instinctively thought that the monster that killed me the first time was also gods, but now I think about it, it’s not right. I didn’t notice it until it walked behind me, if it was gods. If so, the chaotic aura of my lifelong enemy shouldn’t be incapable of feeling even if I lose the power of Leran.”
“Now that I think about it, in a world dominated by Behemoths and gods, it is the strangest thing to have a young boy who is alive and kicking. And according to what he said at the time, what he was looking for at the time was probably the Killed my monster itself.”
