I can see the barrage from all over the world

Chapter 3 Free Will and Fatalism

"With our joint efforts, our country's post-war economy has developed rapidly... The scientific research department has developed a new type of magic revolver, which can also be used by ordinary people. It has strong lethality against evil spirits. It is currently conducting the final step of experiments... before removing it. With the combined efforts of the Secretary of State and the entire country, our city will be safer.”

Our cities will be safe…

Si Bin looked at the strange barrage above the host and muttered: "I hope so..."

"...If you find that your body is abnormal, please contact the Department of Disaster Control in time. For the safety of you and everyone else, please do not hide it..."

He turned off the TV. Although the official did not say it to the outside world, and even deliberately concealed it, he had already learned exactly——

This is a world of extraordinary power.

For the first time, he felt that the power was so close to him, just like the evil grinning in front of him yesterday.

Is my ability to see barrages considered a supernatural power?

It should be counted, because it... is really annoying...

He looked out the floor-to-ceiling window, seeing tall buildings, flying birds and white clouds. Danger lurked in the peaceful city.

Why is the Buster withholding information about this?

Maybe it's because I'm afraid of causing panic among ordinary people...

A stable city with ample food and clothing is also a simple happiness.

However, happiness comes at a cost.

Looking away from the window, the cold wind blew in. He left the window open and wanted to let the room breathe, so he added a black printed sweater jacket.

In the late winter and early spring season, today's weather seems to be particularly dark and a bit cold.

There are classes today, and the university is only two subway stations away from where he lives.

He tightened his clothes, bent down to tie his shoelaces, tied a simple bow, then got up and headed to Tianyun University, the best university in Tianyun District.

Tianyun University.

In the politics class, the bald teacher was talking about profound philosophical issues.

The back row collapsed.

"Abin, I've ordered it for you, call me daddy!"

"?"

Because of what happened yesterday, Si Bin kept staring at the barrage above the heads of pedestrians on the subway, trying to find the source of the barrage. As a result, I passed my station, so I was ten minutes late.

"Fan Zhi, are you planning to take politics classes seriously? Choose such a front position?"

"How is it possible? Politics class is so boring. If I hadn't come late, who would have sat in the front!"

Si Bin was silent. He was not interested in political classes either, but out of his serious habit, he still remembered the changed test points. Now, the politics teacher is obviously teaching some extracurricular knowledge.

He, who rarely loses focus in class, remembered what he had experienced last night and couldn't help but look out the window.

The classroom is on the first floor. Outside the window, the streets on campus are covered with greenery. Occasionally, a few college students passing by on bicycles will pass by, and a string of barrages will float above their heads from time to time.

[Neptune, our role model! 】

Si Bin had long been accustomed to it. What really surprised him was that when he was highly focused, the world began to flicker and switch back and forth between reality and weirdness.

Strange evil spirits are wandering on the streets, on rooftops, and in alleys; figures of people in strange clothes shuttle back and forth, holding knives, casting spells, and fighting wantonly.

This made it difficult for him to breathe, and his heartbeat could not help but accelerate, pumping blood vigorously.

The scene in front of me was very similar to what I saw in the dean's office yesterday.

His fingers trembled slightly, and the standing book fell down on the table with a bang. Fan Zhi, who was holding his cell phone on his crotch and sending messages secretly, was so frightened that he suddenly raised his head.

Chuer, black and gray, fade away like a tide.

The politics teacher's lazy voice reappeared in my ears.

The students whispering to each other, the branches blowing, the car horns honking, everything is full of life.

"Abin, what are you doing? You scared me!"

Si Bin came back to his senses, and his Adam's apple moved with difficulty.

"Nothing, I was distracted..."

"Are you also distracted?" Fan Zhi glanced at him mischievously, "Yes, this teacher's lectures are boring to death. Philosophy is really boring. I think those philosophers' thinking is not as good as mine. Random thoughts come with depth.”

"Oh? What do you usually think about?"

"For example, I've been thinking that our Chinese character "福" has always been pasted upside down. So why don't manufacturers just produce the character "福" upside down?"

Si Bin was stunned for a moment. He glanced at the door of the classroom, where there was an upside-down word "福" on it.

"Hiss, the angle is novel!"

"Right!" Fan Zhi suddenly became energetic and added, "Also, last time I read a book, it said that our world is about 70% ocean and 30% land. I am very curious. In addition, Where did 30% of the ocean and 70% of the land go?”

"Hiss! Thought-provoking!"

Although Si Bin pretended to express exaggerated praise, he was suddenly touched by these words in his heart.

Could it be that world? !

During the break between classes, Si Bin accidentally saw a rare barrage floating on Fan Zhi’s crewhead:

[I am super, boiling sheep! 】

Si Bin narrowed his eyes slightly. Although Fan Zhi's skin was a little darker than his own, it wasn't like that of a boiling sheep, right?

He saw that Fan Zhi kept looking down at his phone. He was not playing a mobile game, but texting someone, all throughout the class.

"Who are you talking to? So passionate?"

"Hehe!" Fan Zhi put away his laughter and said with a smile, "A senior student majoring in literature."

"Senior sister? How did we meet?"

"play basketball!"

"Literature major? Play basketball?"

"To be precise, she was on the cheerleading team. At that time, I was playing basketball on behalf of our School of Planning and Design."

Si Bin remembered that this happened, and he went to see it at the time, but he was not impressed.

"Then what?"

"Then after we won the game, this senior suddenly asked someone to ask me for my contact information!"

As Fan Zhi spoke, he raised his phone to light up the lock screen, and a photo of a long-haired girl wearing light lipstick appeared.

"Have you got your luck, kid?"

"Don't open the champagne too early. I'm taking things step by step. Girls in literature are more traditional and sensitive, so they can't rush!"

"You know it very well?"

"Learned it from Taozi."

Fan Zhi's name for Taozi is Jiang Haitao, and they were once roommates. There is another person named Qiu Yun.

Jiang Haitao and Si Bin were classmates in high school, and Qiu Yun and Si Bin were classmates in high school.

Later Si Bin moved out and lived in his own home. There were only three of them left in the four-person dormitory. Si Bin only had classes in the morning and afternoon and went to the dormitory to rest.

"Speaking of which, where are Qiu Yun and Tao Zi?"

"Qiu Yun asked for leave and didn't come to school for several days."

"Taozi is sitting in the back and having a deep love for his girlfriend! Sure enough, love can make people corrupt!"

In Si Bin's impression, Jiang Haitao was an old otaku, and back then he was someone who would set fire to a doggy man or woman if he saw them.

"Damn it! I want to fall too!" Fan Zhi gritted his teeth and turned to look at the boy with glasses in the last row, his eyes full of envy.

"By the way, Abin, among the four of us in the dormitory, you are the only one who is not single yet!"

"Aren't you still single?"

"Hey, I think I can hit the bases soon! This is easier than dunking!"

Si Bin looked at Fan Zhi's head, hesitating whether to tell him the barrage information in a gentle way.

But he couldn't be sure that what the barrage said was true. If it was wrong, wouldn't he miss someone's life-long event?

"Hurry up and find a girlfriend. Then call Taozi and Qiu Yun and go play an escape room together!"

"You know, I have long drawn my sword of wisdom and slashed..."

Si Bin was just about to make a joke, but unexpectedly a beautiful female voice came from the door.

"Spin?"

He looked up and saw Zhao Yumiao wearing a smart business suit, black stockings and high heels, and pretending to be wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, waving to him.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Zhao Yumiao smiled slightly, with red lips and white teeth, which attracted the attention of all the boys in the class.

"Fuck, do we have such a beautiful teacher in our school!"

"She teaches something, I want to take her class!"

"She just called Si Bin. I heard that wasn't that boy suffering from depression?"

"Isn't this a psychology teacher?"

Si Bin felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and he was too embarrassed to stand up.

Fan Zhimeng pulled Si Bin's sleeve and whispered: "I'll go, this teacher can become a star! Abing, you are not kind! You secretly find a beautiful teacher for one-on-one tutoring, right?"

"She is not a teacher..."

"Not a teacher? Your sister?" Fan Zhi's eyes lit up, "Introduce her to me quickly."

Si Bin didn't know what to say to him.

On the side, Zhao Yumiao and the politics teacher were communicating.

Si Bin sighed, thought for a while, and said to Fan Zhi, "Fan Zhi, I have a suggestion."

"What?"

"I suggest you confess your love to your senior sister immediately and see how she responds."

"Isn't this good..." Fan Zhi looked at Si Bin in confusion, "That's not right. Your boy's love experience is cleaner than my exam scratch paper, and you actually came to give me advice on crawling!"

Si Bin said seriously: "If I really like you, maybe I can't wait for you to confess."

He pointed at Zhao Yumiao next to the podium and told a rare lie, saying: "For example, we only met once and we trusted each other with our lives."

"?"

Fan Zhi watched Si Bin leave, and then glanced at Zhao Yumiao dressed as a female teacher at the door.

"I heard before that this kid has depression. His love is all a lie, right?"

After saying that, he lowered his head and picked up the phone, typing something quickly with his fingers.

Si Bin did not give Fan Zhi such dangerous advice on a whim.

In fact, he has always wanted to understand which barrages are more credible.

After a period of research, some insights have been gained.

The sender of these barrages seems to have a higher perspective, similar to his usual live broadcast, going back and forth between various live broadcast rooms.

Once there are melons nearby, they will join in the fun.

In other words, everyone is a live broadcast room.

So the barrage posted above Fan Zhi just now must be someone who happened to go to the senior sister's live broadcast room to watch. Maybe they discovered something, so they came here to laugh at it.

And they didn't seem to know that Si Bin could see these barrages.

This type of information is very likely to be true.

However, there is still a certain risk. After all, many people may just see the appearance or hear what they heard, and then send a message as they wish.

For example, yesterday’s information about Zhao Yumiao’s age.

Under the leadership of Zhao Yumiao, Si Bin came to the Disaster Elimination Department.

The main building of the Department of Disaster Control is a three-story spire building. The flat-roofed annex extends for tens of meters to the left and right. The interior is designed in a cloister style. There are exquisite white plaster carvings on the window sills and door frames. They are slightly faded and look quite old. old.

The interior of the Disaster Removal Department is very large, with many rooms. Si Bin followed Zhao Yumiao to an office.

The person who received him was a middle-aged man with a mustache, tall and thin, with sparse hair.

Standing next to her was a tall, gorgeously dressed woman with long rose-red hair, willow eyebrows and thin eyes. She had a slender stabbing sword on her waist. Her appearance was cold and her temperament was pure.

The woman's red lips parted slightly and she asked, "Jade Cat, is this college student the one who saved you at that time?"

"Um."

Si Bin suddenly felt a little embarrassed. This could not be considered as saving her.

The man was wearing a black suit. He pinched the tip of his beard, raised his head slightly, and said, "Captain Li of their fifth regiment is away today, so let me do it for him. My name is Wu Zhu, commander of the third Yingjie regiment."

The Disaster Removal Department is a long-established and large department spread throughout the entire Wu Kingdom.

There are eight major organizations among them. Each organization is divided into several regiments, and each regiment is divided into three teams.

Zhao Yumiao was born in the Holy Qihui, one of the eight major organizations, but now works in the second team of the fifth regiment of the Yingjie Department.

"Hello, Captain Wu!" Si Bin said politely.

Zhao Yumiao took the initiative to introduce: "This is my colleague and teammate, Xinglan."

"Hello."

Xinglan nodded towards Si Bin, her eyes stayed on him for a moment, and there was an elegant smile on her lips:

"Hello!"

Si Bin saw a string of barrage floating above Xinglan's head:

[I am so, so beautiful, my wife! 】

[Take it back and don’t drop it on my wife’s head]

[Is she a pervert from the sex club? 】

A love affair?

After a brief greeting, Wu Zhu said: "You have done a great favor to the troubleshooting department. To a certain extent, you have saved the entire hospital."

"Actually, I didn't do anything..."

"The troublemaker knows that his identity has been leaked, and the troubleshooting department will not let him go, so if he is not solved at that time, he will have no need to continue to hide, and in turn, he will bring harm to the entire hospital and make a lot of money. ”

"Identity leaked? Make a fortune?" Si Bin was confused by Wu Zhu's words.

"Oh, I forgot, you are still an ordinary person." Wu Zhu coughed lightly and glanced at him.

"So serious? Then why don't you send more people..."

"This is the responsibility of their commander Li." Wu Zhu looked like he was not concerned about the matter, and put his hands behind his back.

Zhao Yumiao explained: "According to the intelligence, it was just a first-level evil and not very powerful. I didn't expect that it was actually an ugly girl from Huangquan in disguise."

"The fundamental reason is actually that our Tianyun District Disaster Control Department is seriously short of manpower."

"Captain Li has already applied for manpower from above."

Zhao Yumiao looked at Si Bin and smiled, "If, brother, you..."

Halfway through her words, she was interrupted by Xinglan.

"Jade Cat, we still have a mission, so without further ado, let's go over there first. Just leave this to Captain Wu."

"OK."

When Wu Zhu saw the two leaving, he also walked out of the office and ordered without looking back: "Follow me."

Si Bin quickly followed up: "Are you going to get rid of the evil influence on me?"

"Yes, but before that, I'll take you for a test."

"test?"

"There will be a reward after the test, just treat it as a reward for your bravery."

Si Bin knew that there would be bonuses for assisting officials in handling cases. Although this was not his purpose, he happened to be short of money, a lot of money.

"Is it money?" Si Bin confirmed.

"Absolutely. It depends on the situation." Wu Zhu said perfunctorily.

"About? It depends on the situation?" Si Bin was confused.

"Don't ask so many questions." Wu Zhu turned his head and glared at him impatiently.

Si Bin stopped talking, but secretly glanced at Wu Zhu's head, and found a few scattered barrages passing by:

【The show is coming! 】

【Hey Hey】

Si Bin was silent.

Why are the barrages all about The Riddler?

After a while, Si Bin came to the door of a room.

Wu Zhu opened the door, and the room was filled with endless darkness.

Si Bin stared intently and found that the darkness was not simply lightless, but as solid and thick as substance, much like the world he saw yesterday.

"Go in." Wu Zhu said calmly.

Si Bin's Adam's apple moved, "Where is this?"

"You'll know when you get in." Wu Zhu sneered, "Don't worry, our Disaster Control Department won't attack you, an ordinary person, and besides, you're still a student."

Si Bin had no choice but to muster up the courage and walked in.

The moment he walked in, he felt like the world was spinning, and the world seemed upside down. He lost his sense of direction for a moment, like a drowning person.

He instinctively spread his limbs and waved around randomly, trying to find a point of strength or something to cling to, but he fell deeper and deeper.

Tick ​​tock!

The sound of water dripping sounded in Sipin's ears. He felt a pain in his buttocks. His violently beating heart calmed down. He found that he was sitting on a wooden chair.

Where is this?

"Swish!"

Two beams of light shot out from nowhere and landed on the table in front of Si Bin.

Two exquisite maroon brocade boxes were placed in front of him. He wanted to get up and touch her but found that he couldn't stand up.

The whole person seemed to be glued to the wooden chair.

"do not worry."

A strange voice came from the space, as if synthesized by a machine, without any emotion.

"This is your reward."

"There are two boxes in front of you. The box on the left must contain items worth 10,000."

"The box on the right may contain items worth more than a million dollars."

"You have two choices:"

"One is to take away both boxes."

"The second is to only take the box on the right."

Si Bin frowned slightly, "Who are you?"

"I'm a super-intelligent machine, I'm very good at calculations."

"When I figure out that you're going to take both boxes away, you're not going to put anything in the box on the right."

"When I calculate that you will only take the box on the right, I put items in it."

"I've already put the items away. The box is just there and I won't move it again."

"Please make your choice."

Si Bin reacted, no wonder Wu Zhu said how much he could take depends on his choice.

He was lost in thought.

Wouldn't it be a sure profit if I just take the one on the right?

Do you still need to choose?

Spencer stared at the two boxes in the light.

Suddenly, a strange scene happened.

A barrage actually appeared above the box!

[Brothers, are you guys here to see if there are any good things in the box on the right? 】

[Can’t tell, this box is a special talisman]

[Hey, someone is making the choice again, I love watching this kind of thing]

[The guy coming back here is quite handsome. I want all his information within a minute! 】

[Can’t follow him? 】

[Go and pay attention to his family! 】

[His parents are both dead]

【……】

[Stop talking about whether these are some or not, quickly place your bets on which one he will choose]

[Which one will you choose? Which one will you choose? 】

[I have always won everything I pushed, and I have never lost]

[Indeed, taking both is the right choice]

[However, this box is also metaphysical. It is said to contain a talisman of the Broken Rainbow level. I have never seen anyone open it.]

[This is how card drawing looks like]

[I really wish that a European emperor could expose me to my face and let me see a rainbow-level treasure! 】

The barrages were getting faster and faster, and Si Bin's eyes were sore from watching them.

He closed his eyes and calmed himself down.

Wait, barrage actually still appears on items?

Does this mean these two boxes are unusual?

The barrage also said that everyone who came took two boxes?

This seems unbelievable. After all, I don’t believe that person would look at it every time he opens the box.

But this seems to indicate that many people will choose to take it all.

Why do such a risky thing? Isn’t it very stable to just hold the right side?

Wait, the box is already there, and the voice says it won't be touched again.

What’s inside is actually already certain.

No matter which one I choose, it won't change, so it makes sense to take them all.

No, no, the robot said he could calculate and could figure out which one I would take... Should I believe him?

That's right, you should take the one on the right...ah, no, I won't lose anything if I take both!

The items in the box will not disappear out of thin air!

Si Bin felt that his head instantly turned into a ball of paste.

Neither option seemed appropriate.

After so much trouble, it shouldn't just be a reward for me, right?

Is there another deeper meaning?

Jiqiao said it could predict which one I would take... Can it do something like [predicting the future]?

Kamisa is pretty much the same!

Or is this trick just playing the role of a "god"?

Si Bin reacted: "What are you testing?"

There were particularly many barrages on the two boxes. From a certain distance, he could barely see the rapidly rolling barrages. So he lowered his head slightly, closed his eyes, and stopped looking. His heart suddenly became calm, and he had forgotten the distracting thoughts caused by the barrage.

That is, when he settled down to think, everything seemed to stop, including the messy thoughts.

His mind was empty, and he didn't know how long it had been and what he was thinking.

I only know that I made a decision out of instinct and my heart.

"I choose the right."

At this time, Si Bin did not know that this small dark room could allow participants to face their truest selves and their truest thoughts.

Can't be deceived, can't be changed.
