Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 396 A Woman's Revenge

"The last blink?"

As Han Su listened to the eccentric doctor's words, he felt as if fate was overwhelming him and crushing him head-on.

He was incredibly angry at that statement and that person's attitude.

This person was simply recounting the cause and effect, but it brought him immense pressure from all sides, and he, at the very center of that pressure, felt utterly powerless to do anything.

The feeling of being completely manipulated by others is too painful, like drowning in the deep sea with no way to escape.

"Release the time-space freeze!"

At that moment, Dr. Strange looked calmly at Han Su, as if he had taken in every struggle and anger in Han Su's subtle expressions, and lowered his voice: "Watch me get killed by the Annihilation Cannon, or shoot me in the head again!"

“I know you are very sad. Maybe seeing me die again will make you feel better.”

"But I'm sorry..."

His voice was low: "I know what I did was wrong, but I couldn't control myself."

"I must see this civilization breathe again, and see what the shadows behind it look like."

"This is human nature, and it's more terrifying than any form of pollution!"

"..."

"you!"

At this moment, Han Su felt incredibly difficult. Was all of this meaningful?
I don't want to pay attention to those things. The biggest difference between me and the eccentric doctor and that Ms. Shen is that one of them has a "great" goal and the other has a "great" feeling, while I do not.

All I wanted was to survive; I didn't care about anything else.

But ironically, in this meeting, one could talk about his goals, and the other could indeed vent his emotions by "killing him," but only he himself, his own goal of wanting to live, was shattered so casually, leaving no hope behind.

Therefore, at this moment, whether we see him killed by the annihilation bubble or shoot him into a sieve, it is insignificant.

"Not allowed!"

But just as Han Su felt his scalp tingling and his body incredibly heavy, yet he was powerless to do anything, a frustrated voice rang out.

Surprisingly, the one who seemed to shout out those three words with all her might was Ms. Shen, whose eyes were red.

She seemed utterly desperate, even releasing her grip on the Doctor's collar, but her anger remained undiminished as she shouted, "I will not allow you to send him to his doom a second time!"

These words had no practical meaning, and Dr. Bizarre was only slightly taken aback.

For the first time, Ms. Shen looked at him with such eyes, without pain or despair, regret or torment, only pure anger, and said forcefully: "You all have many experiences that I don't remember, but only I know, I know what I am thinking."

“I betrayed my own child. I am shameful, despicable, and deserve all the punishment…”

"But that's not what I meant at all..."

"..."

Her eyes were filled with a gray despair: "I did cooperate with your plan and send our child into the castle, but at that time, I was just gambling, gambling that I could rescue you."

"My plan isn't to cooperate with you on some grand scheme, nor is it to trade this child's life for yours. My ideal is to use him to take risks in exchange for your freedom..."

"My vision is that all three of us can live in Qinggang..."

"..."

"you……"

The eccentric doctor, who had always been full of confidence, suddenly noticed something subtle and looked somewhat surprised.

Han Su felt the same way; it was as if a flash of lightning had struck his mind, illuminating a detail in a certain corner of his mind.

Ms. Shen stared intently at the eccentric doctor, and suddenly, a self-deprecating smile appeared on her lips: "How do you think our children escaped from the castle the first time?"

"So, the initial variable..."

The eccentric doctor's eyes suddenly turned sinister, and he straightened his back slightly, eager to ask a question.

But Ms. Shen interrupted him: "You're such a jerk!"

"Bah!"

After saying that, she suddenly pulled the trigger, blowing his head off in the frozen space-time.

This obviously doesn't have any real significance, but it did manage to shut him up.

After firing the shot, Ms. Shen immediately turned to look at Han Su. At this moment, it seemed that her anger, resentment, or frustration had reached their limit, and she actually showed an unexpected indifference.

With a devoid of emotion, she quickly said to Han Su, "Don't be deceived by him. I am now certain that he is using you, and even your emotions."

"My escape from the castle, is it related to you... to you?"

Han Su was also having great difficulty speaking at this moment, as the pressure from the mechanical fragments was becoming increasingly intense.

Maintaining this frozen state of time and space is already extremely difficult for me.

But most importantly, mechanical fragment number 01 is also at work, and Blink has begun to attempt to descend.

At this moment, he could return to the past with just a thought, which would be the safest course of action. However, the words of the eccentric doctor had made him extremely vigilant, and for the first time, he felt fear about returning to the castle.

What does he mean by writing his name into Contract No. 02? What will happen after he returns to the castle after writing it into the contract?
"No, the most important thing is still you."

Ms. Shen said in a low voice, "I just really hope you can escape. If you escape, we can declare the Divine Descent Plan a failure, and perhaps the Guardians of the World will think that the plan is not mature enough. Then our family of three will have a chance to be reunited."

"Of course, things have proven that everything I thought was very naive."

"What I can confirm is that I did indeed modify some subtle parameters and try to add some variables at the very beginning of the Divine Descent Plan. However, I always thought I had failed..."

"...Did you see that cat?"

"..."

"A cat? Duke Black Cat?"

Han Su's pupils constricted sharply, and his voice even changed slightly.

"That cat, it's probably the only gift I've ever given you since you were a child..."

Ms. Shen sighed softly and shook her head gently: "However, now is not the time to talk about these things, and I have no right to tell you what I have done."

"Fragments of the throne..."

She turned her head and glanced to the left and right: "You were able to freeze time and space because you used the power of the throne fragment, weren't you?"

“This is truly a magical existence. Before you pulled me in, I didn’t remember any of these things. It wasn’t until I entered their influence that I remembered that I had been with these things, but after leaving them, my memory was forcibly erased.”

"However, if I remember correctly, these things seem to have the ability to let us see the future?"

"..."

Han Su could only nod with difficulty after hearing her words.

Mechanical fragment No. 02 has the ability to rewind time, while fragment No. 03 can accelerate time. Theoretically, they can indeed see the future, but that requires a large number of sacrifices.

"Then I know what to do."

Ms. Shen looked at Han Su seriously and said, "No matter what his plan is, he will not succeed."

Seeing her so determined, Han Su was even a little surprised.

Ms. Shen's smile only revealed a slight hint of bitterness: "I promised you that as soon as we met..."

"...I will avenge him with you, don't you believe me?" "..."

"So... what do you plan to do?"

Han Su asked the question with some difficulty.

Want revenge?

Of course, I would have such thoughts, but the difficulty now is not whether I want revenge, but because this person's actions are crazy and mysterious. He seems to have said a lot, and even seems to have opened up about himself.

But in reality, he didn't reveal any of the key issues.

Some "clever guys" can't help but talk about what they've done and show off their brilliance to their opponents, but this eccentric doctor clearly doesn't have that habit; he keeps the key information to himself.

It could be said that his appearance here was merely to announce that he was finally about to succeed.

Meanwhile, outside of this time and space, the Annihilation Beam has been activated, and all people and things related to Dr. Bizarre have been locked down. Even with the golden pen in the dark room, Shuki is unable to transmit information. Everything is irreversible.

Therefore, Han Su didn't know what else Ms. Shen could do.

"I have my own way of doing things."

Ms. Shen hesitated, "I've already heard you escape from the castle more than once, which means you've been kidnapped more than once, and you've experienced many different lives. So, what should we do..."

"...Have we already met?"

Han Su suddenly paused for a moment.

Of course I had met Ms. Shen before, on the timeline of my life ending in Qinggang, but I never thought of letting her know.

"I don't want to believe you can be so cold to me."

Ms. Shen raised her hand, rubbed her face, took a deep breath, and said, "I would rather you hate me, or want to kill me, so seeing you like this just now, I really found it hard to accept..."

"Although it's my own fault..."

"It wasn't until I heard what you said just now that I realized why you're like this. Have we met before in another lifeline?"

Han Su was already feeling a bit impatient and had no interest in discussing this at all.

Ms. Shen seemed to have noticed this as well, and immediately asked, "If we've met, did I give you anything?"

"thing?"

Han Su was suddenly stunned; this was indeed true.

From his reaction, Ms. Shen knew that the item really existed, and she even became a little excited: "I knew it would exist. I've always carried it with me, just so that when I see you, I can let you know some things that are inconvenient to say."

"However, when the patrolling knights were arresting me, they destroyed everything, including that crystal skull..."

"You...you didn't already throw it away, did you?"

"..."

She was genuinely worried when she asked that question.

They worried that Han Su had already carelessly discarded these things.

Faced with her worried expression, Han Su remained silent for a moment before opening his briefcase, taking out the crystal skull, and gazing at the shimmering light emanating from it. He then handed it back to Ms. Shen without expression.

"You actually still keep it with you..."

To be honest, Han Su put the crystal skull into the box simply to store intelligence.

But in Ms. Shen's view, this was something that made her extremely excited.

This seemed to suggest that Han Su had once understood her inner pain.

Moreover, Han Su kept this feeling with him, in the suitcase he always carried with him.

"What problem can this crystal skull solve?"

"..."

Although Han Su could see Ms. Shen's inner turmoil and emotion, he still couldn't figure out her purpose.

"There's a lot to it; at the very least, we can see through his plans..."

As she spoke, she gently held the crystal skull in her palm, raising it to the level of her brow. Then, her spiritual power seeped from her forehead, resonating with the crystal skull.

The crystal skull, which had lost its luster after being separated from its original owner, has been reactivated under the stimulation of her spiritual power, possessing an eerie beauty.

As Ms. Shen gazed at the crystal skull, her expression became more pure than ever before.

Her voice was low, and it was unclear whether she was making a promise to Han Su or adding to the explanation: "I did love him; it was a kind of all-consuming and devoted love."

"But because I cared about him so much, after realizing his betrayal and scheming, I will do my best to see through him and demystify him in my mind."

"This is something that everyone who has ever been in love will do. There are many heartbroken people in this world, and every heartbroken person will become the one who breaks down the wall of the shadow in their heart."

"So, he can't succeed..."

"A rational and intelligent person like him, I wonder what an emotional person would be like when they get serious."

"He doesn't realize what a huge mistake it was to come and see the two of us when all his plans were almost complete."

"he……"

"He shouldn't have wanted us to be his audience after bullying us!"

"Of course he's arrogant, arrogant enough to look down on everyone, but this time, I'll make him understand that he can look down on anyone, but he can't maintain such arrogance in front of his wife and children..."

"..."

As she finished speaking, she suddenly looked up and smiled at Han Su.

At this moment, Han Su was already suffering from unbearable pressure from the mechanical fragments, but he habitually suppressed this feeling and did not show it.

Ms. Shen, however, seemed to sense his burden and said softly with an apologetic tone, "Thank you, at least you tried to understand my feelings..."

"Now, I no longer hope that my family can be reunited..."

"I only ask that you live!"

"..."

"..."

"So, someone used the power of the throne to freeze that spacetime?"

In the underground facilities of Zhen Dan City, an old man dressed in a Zhongshan suit frowned, and it was not hard to guess why the annihilation beam cannon had not worked.

When he heard that the data retrieved from Doctor Strange wasn't the data he wanted, he even frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "This person didn't necessarily have to crawl into this pocket..."

"Why did he go through all this trouble to come here to his death, displaying the power of the throne before us? What exactly is he trying to do?"

"..."

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and he tensed up, shouting, "Quickly, find someone to check the Three World Contracts. Are they currently being...?"

"High Priest, something terrible has happened..."

Before he could even finish speaking, someone suddenly rushed out of the elevator in a panic, shouting, "World Contract No. 02 has shown signs of modification..."
