I created the Anomaly Control Bureau

Chapter 494 492. Flickering Candlelight (4k ask for a monthly pass~)

After practicing with his senior sister, Shen Tianyi once again asked Ma En a few questions as usual, and solved the difficulties he encountered in boxing and cultivation. Then he followed his senior sister to Zangshuge to study. In the early hours of the morning, I returned to my residence to wash up, lay down and get ready to take a good rest to welcome the new day.

But not long after the boy lay down on the bed, just when his consciousness was a little fuzzy, he heard a few dull knocks on the door that penetrated into his ears as if passing through thick fog, and woke him up gently. .

The young man raised his eyelids and got up in a dazed state. He was so sleepy that he didn't notice the extraordinarily bright moonlight outside the window tonight, nor did he notice the strangeness permeating the air.

And when he opened the door, it took several seconds to see the figure standing outside.

It was his master Ma En.

Before he was surprised, Ma En asked:
"May I come in?"

The boy nodded repeatedly, and immediately made way for Maren to enter the house. At the same time, the scene in the house that he couldn't see behind him became clearer, but he didn't notice it at all because of his drowsy head.

It wasn't until Ma En sat down face to face with him in the room that the boy realized that something was wrong. Why did the master come over suddenly after he fell asleep? Could it be something particularly urgent?
After Ma En sat down opposite him, he asked unhurriedly:
"I noticed that you recently collected some information about Skywalker?"

The young man didn't feel any surprise that Ma En would know this, because he had no understanding of the abnormal world at all, and he would not be particularly surprised no matter what Ma En did.

So Shen Tianyi just nodded:
"That's right, after you mentioned her to me, master, I really want to know what kind of person she is."

Mann asked:

"Then do you have any ideas?"

The boy showed a pensive look:

"In the beginning, I actually heard about Shen Xiao's current situation, as well as the conflict between the Federation and her. At that time, I still felt that the battle between Shen Xiao and the Federation was a bit like the warlord brothers of the Southern Federation fighting for power.

"But after I saw more detailed information, I felt that my initial thoughts were a bit misunderstood. This matter seems to be more intense and bloody than when they mentioned it, right?"

The boy raised his head and looked at Ma En with a questioning look.

Marne nodded slightly and said:
"That's right, you should have known that I once participated in a battle in the Salvation Alliance following Shen Xiao. At that time, I was helping Shen Xiao secretly by hiding my strength, and I have to admit that I did want to secretly rescue Shen Xiao." Xiao Xiao's idea, although in fact the possibility of my success is not high.

"But unfortunately, I was forced to sign a contract with the Federation some time ago, and I can no longer provide any help to Shen Xiao, and the current situation of Shen Xiao is that she is still subject to the Federation.

"I think the information you got may also mention the reasons for the confrontation between Shenxiao and the Federation. What do you think?"

The boy frowned slightly:

"The information actually lists the reasons for the Federation and Shenxiao to act, and I always feel that something is wrong."

Mann smiled:
"Of course you will think it's wrong, because they are just confusing black and white, even if I don't need to look at it, I can think of hundreds of excuses to deal with Shen Xiao, and it is especially easy to make up the reason for doing something against such a capable person.

"Worry, doubt, fear, they have countless reasons to do it, but if the Federation really doesn't have its own little thoughts, it can definitely come up with better countermeasures than it is now.

"When the Federation takes such a quick and relentless stance, it means that they don't have any idea of ​​solving the problem by other means, and they don't care that their judgment is wrong.

"Because the reasons you can see are all excuses they made up after they imprisoned Shen Xiao."

Hearing this, the young man showed a look of enlightenment. During this period of time, he was indeed a little entangled in the "love-hate relationship" between Shen Xiao and the Federation, and always felt that there was something wrong with what the senior sister said.

And when Ma En said this, he immediately noticed the violation.

"I see." The young man also showed a thoughtful expression.

Mann went on to say:

"At that time, I actually didn't expect the Federation's action, otherwise Shenxiao would not have lost, so I really just wanted to get in touch with Shenxiao by joining the Salvation Alliance, and secretly lurk inside it.

"But when I first joined the Salvation Alliance, the Federation also launched a siege to all members of the Salvation Alliance who were in the Federation system at that time in order to imprison Shen Xiao, and they did not intend to let me go.

"So maybe I can't say what Shenxiao is like, but I can tell you from my own experience that the Federation is an extremely ruthless organization, and it's not an exaggeration to call it evil.

"At least this face of it is extremely dark, of course, this is not its full face, and this world still needs such a bad organization, otherwise Shen Xiao would have confronted it head-on.

"Because there are many organizations in this world that are far worse than the Federation, so even though it is a pity, its existence does have a lot of positive effects on the world strictly speaking. I think this is why Shen Xiao has never thought of trying to The reason for dismantling it, these evil organizations include the guy who exposed my identity.

"Actually, although it was difficult for me to rescue Shen Xiao, I still did a good job of lurking in the federation, and I was found by them a while ago because an evil existence that wanted to deal with me exposed me."

"If it weren't for him, I'm still inside the Federation, and I wouldn't be your master here."

Hearing this, the boy's expression obviously became a little gloomy:
"I didn't expect the world to be so bad. I used to expect that only my surroundings would look like that. But when I think about it carefully, if the whole world wasn't like this, the Southern Federation wouldn't be what it is today."

At this moment, Shen Tianyi's mood became extremely heavy and uncomfortable. Ma En's words proved the worry that the young man had lingered in his heart from the beginning to the end and could not be dispelled. The world after the opening of the curtain was far darker than he imagined.

In addition to the resistance to the cold reality, the young man still has strong powerlessness and exhaustion in his heart. Just imagining that he lives in such a world makes him feel a little depressed.

Ma En also saw the young man's mood at the moment, and immediately comforted him:
"But because of this, Shen Xiao is so dazzling, and besides herself, there are many capable users who are angry and dissatisfied with injustice and darkness, and they are members of the Salvation Alliance who follow Shen Xiao.

"And you have to know that they are the most determined group of these good people, and there are many good people who have not made up their minds to risk their lives to fight, but their hearts are still buried in kindness.

"Although they did not rush to the forefront, they were also the pillars of those fighters.

"There are many good people who have been, are, and will be fighting for what is right."

Hearing this sentence, the boy's eyes on Ma En became brighter:
"And Master, you are also one of them."

Marne raised his hand and waved:

"Due to being calculated by the evil existence, I can no longer fight at the front line, but I will try to do some good things, such as raising a kind-hearted child like you.

"If you were given a chance, would you choose to be someone like Shen Xiao?"

The boy didn't expect Ma En to ask such a question, and fell into deep thought again, then shook his head slightly and said:
"I don't think I can be that great. I'm far from that ability."

Mann asked:

"And what if you could do it?"

This question stopped the young man again, and he said with an extremely hesitant expression:

"Then I will definitely stand up to fight the evil, but I really feel that I am not good at doing this kind of thing. Compared with fighting the bad guys, I hope to heal the good people who are hurt.

"So I'm actually very interested in Dan Dao. I want to be a doctor who can save lives and heal the wounded."

Ma En looked at him and nodded slightly and said:
"Then what if I say that there is an opportunity in front of you to help others right now?"

The boy looked at Ma En with some surprise and expectation and asked:

"Does Master want me to cure diseases and save lives?"

Obviously, the teenager is a little excited about helping others, and even a little eager to try.

But Marne shook his head slightly, and then asked:

"No, the one who needs your help is none other than me."

Shen Tianyi opened his mouth in surprise:

"Master?"

Man looked at him and asked:
"Will you help me?"

The boy was startled, but still nodded heavily:

"Of course, as long as I can do good deeds, I am obliged to do so."

Ma En glanced out the window, and then said slowly:

"I just mentioned that there is a mastermind behind the scenes who is dealing with me. In fact, I have some doubts that he will take advantage of our apprenticeship to arrange an undercover agent by my side, and according to my investigation, it seems to be the case."

The boy had already thought of something, and his expression became a little unbelievable:
"Master, you mean Senior Sister..."

But what he didn't expect was Man's reaction.

He shook his head:
"No, I'm talking about you."

The boy was stunned for a few seconds before he realized it, then frowned slightly and began to think about whether there was any special meaning hidden in Ma En's words, and then he fell into strong doubts and puzzles.

"Me?" the boy asked blankly.

Mann nodded:

"That's right, but I know you're innocent, so I have a new suspect. What I'm going to say next may be particularly difficult for you to accept, but according to our investigation...

"You are a pure white undercover agent trained by your grandfather. He has many problems."

As Ma En said, Shen Tianyi did not immediately accept this statement:

"Impossible, my grandpa is a good man."

Mann nodded:

"I would like to believe this too, but now all the evidence points to him, so, let me ask you...

"If your grandpa found you suddenly and told a plausible lie and asked you to do something that might be detrimental to me, would you possibly believe his lie?"

The boy's face turned pale instantly, but he still did not admit what Ma En said:
"Grandpa can't do this kind of thing, I know..."

Marne looked into his eyes and said:

"I am more willing to believe in this possibility, but I think you have enough time to understand me this month, you are very clear about what I have done in the past, and you also know what Shen Xiao has done.

"And if your grandpa is just an ordinary person, there's no reason for me to target him, is there?"

The boy was still trying to argue:
"I believe you, Master, but maybe you made a mistake..."

Mann went on to say:

"No matter what the truth is, you should be able to think that now I firmly believe that your grandfather is probably the man behind the scenes, otherwise I would not be able to tell you these things."

The boy tightly shut his mouth and clenched his fists tightly.

He knew very well that what Mann was telling was the truth, and it was impossible for Mann to be lying to him, because if what he said was false, then Mann would have no reason or motivation to do this, after all, it was impossible for him to tell his ordinary grandfather start.

So in fact, the young man has vaguely believed what Ma En said at this moment, but he is still unwilling to accept:
"Grandpa raised me for 16 years. He couldn't have thought of the conflict with you 16 years ago."

Ma En said the cruel fact calmly:

"That's right, but some existences can easily take 16 years to train a possible undercover agent. To them, this amount of time and energy is nothing at all, and it doesn't matter if you don't use it.

"And do you really think that it is really reasonable for you to be able to worship under my sect because you were suddenly detected with an extremely rare root bone?"

The young man's face became paler and paler. In fact, in the eyes of Ma En or outsiders, this might be reasonable, but Shen Tianyi himself could not believe that such a lucky thing would happen to him.

The beauty of these days is like a dream to him, now it seems...

Maybe this is really just a dream that can be awakened at any time.

If what Ma En said is true, it means that he has lived in cruel lies for the first half of his life, which is just as he learned through his senior sister-this is a cold world.

Seeing the young man fell silent, Ma En also said:
"I'm here because we need you to lower your grandpa's vigilance. I want you to cooperate with us to trap him with abnormal power, but if you really think that your grandpa is not a bad person...

"Then why not come with us to see what his true face is like, after all, if this is really a misunderstanding, it won't do any harm to him.

"And if he's really a bad guy, your help may also help us better defeat evil."

The boy asked slowly with a difficult expression:

"Master, can you not hit my grandfather hard?"

Marne looked into his eyes and asked:

"Even if he's really the bad guy?"

The young man lowered his head slightly, showing an expression of extreme shame and pain:
"But he's still my grandfather."

Shen Tianyi's current appearance perfectly matched Ma En's speculation, and this was the reaction his grandfather wanted.

"I will try to control him as much as possible." He promised the boy, "as long as it is not necessary."

The boy with his head down said weakly:
"it is good."
