I'm playing cards in Duel City

Chapter 1253 16 years ago
16 years ago.

That was not long after Ushio Tetsu started working in the Vigilante Bureau.At that time, he was just a rookie, the lowest guard in the bureau, full of ambitions, dreaming of solving big cases and catching the most vicious criminals in galloping duels.

As a newcomer who has just arrived, his daily work schedule is packed to the brim.After a whole day, he wished he didn't even have time to go to the bathroom, and even sat on his police D-wheel for meals.

Sometimes I received a task just after eating, and I had to throw aside the lunch I had just eaten, and immediately rode the D wheel to the scene.

The most painful thing is that even if you go in a hurry at such a time, you will only find out that they are all trivial matters, not worth the unfinished lunch.

But overall, Uxo still likes the job.

At that time, D-wheels were everywhere, and perpetual motion machines had become an indispensable part of people's daily life.

At that time 16 years ago, the first generation of perpetual motion machines had just been running for a short time, and that thing was still quite novel.In contrast, it is still a rare commodity to use the perpetual motion machine to drive the D wheel of the new dueling equipment.

If it wasn't because of his status as a vigilante, Ushio would really not be able to get a D round by himself.

At that time, everyone was ecstatic about the birth of Moment, and the emergence of Galloping Duel pushed the game of dueling monsters to an unprecedented height.At that time, the eternal colorful light of the perpetual motion machine was the lighthouse of the whole city, the torch that illuminated the future of human civilization and guided human beings to the path of evolution.

But at that time, almost everyone forgot that although fire can lead mankind to a new future, it can also bring destruction.

The night before, a phone call had pulled Oxtail up from under the covers.With sleepy eyes, he answered the phone with some annoyance that his sleep was interrupted, and asked angrily, "Who?"

"It's me, Ushio-san." On the other side of the phone was a man with an anxious and tired voice.

"Who?" Niuwei didn't hear it, and began to wonder if it was a scam call.

"It's me, Murakami. We went to the same high school when you were the disciplinary committee, and you used to grab my lunch?"

Ushio woke up a little bit, and an image of a bookworm wearing glasses appeared in his mind.

He immediately remembered something, and said in surprise, "Wait a minute. Murakami? Aren't you being wanted?"

If he remembered correctly, he had just seen this guy's arrest warrant in the bureau yesterday.However, in fact, he doesn't need to be a guard and he will definitely not forget Murakami, because Murakami's arrest warrant was just broadcast in the news a while ago.

An old classmate who was wanted, calling himself a vigilante guard?Think you didn't get caught fast enough?

"I remember you worked in the Haima Group before, right?" Niu Wei frowned and asked, "They said that you sold confidential items to foreign forces, and the Haima Group sent people to the bureau just a few days ago and asked us to fully cooperate in the arrest.

You realize that it would be a great service for me to report you, right? "

Murakami was silent for a moment, and said: "I was wronged. What they said was not true at all. The reason why I was wanted was not because of selling secrets, but because of
Well, the news actually blurred out the key information, and I bet that [-]% of what Haima Group told you is false.

But the truth is, I was actually a key technician in Moment's development department until I was wanted. "

Uxo was surprised: "Moment? Is that the perpetual motion machine?"

"The machine that lights up the whole city non-stop, yes," Murakami said. "That's the department I work in."

"Then why didn't they explain?"

"Because in the work of maintaining Moment, I discovered some secrets." Murakami said Shen Sheng, "Some secrets that they tried their best to cover up and didn't want anyone to know.

They wanted it all to be covered up so much that they would kill anyone who knew the secret. "

"Huh?" Oxtail didn't come back to his senses, "Brother, you didn't drink too much, did you?"

The birth of the perpetual motion machine is an epoch-making milestone in the history of human civilization, marking a new era for human civilization, and it gives everyone hope for the future.

But it sounds like what the old schoolmate means is that behind Moment's shining light of hope lies a darkness that will be concealed even at the cost of blood.

"Whether you believe me or not, it's true."

Murakami's breathing became more rapid, and his voice sounded more tense.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. But that's it. I'll give you an address at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. How about you come to me here?"
You are a guard and I am a fugitive. It should be a matter of course for you to arrest me, right? "

Oxtail was even more at a loss.

"What the hell are you talking about? Why are you doing this?"

"Because I have no one else to trust." Murakami said, "But before that, you have to promise me one condition."

"You speak first." Oxtail said, "Only after you speak, can I decide whether to agree or not."

"You have to go to a place to get one thing first, a very important thing that may rewrite the future of mankind. After arresting me, keep that thing well and don't tell anyone about it"

"Wait, if I don't know what that is, there's no way I'm going to say yes hastily"

"It's definitely not something that involves 'trafficking secrets,'" he said. "Or, at least, wait until you see what it is before you decide whether to agree to my terms. Is that okay?"

"Uh okay."

The other party has already made such a concession, and it seems that Oxtail really can't think of any reason to refuse.

And for Oxtail, this is indeed a good opportunity.After all, Murakami is currently the key target of arrests in the bureau, and the Haima Group has repeatedly put pressure on them to speed up the progress.As a newcomer who has just arrived, if he can be arrested and brought to justice, his future career will undoubtedly be smoothed a lot.

So the next day, according to the other party's instructions, Uxo rushed to the place he designated and got the thing that the other party asked him to keep.

Sure enough, as the other party said, that thing didn't seem to have anything to do with the charge of "trafficking secrets" charged on Murakami. At least it seemed so on the surface.

That's just a card.

And it's just a white board card, without any patterns or text, it looks like it hasn't been printed yet.

Oxtail really didn't understand how precious such a whiteboard was, so he put it in his pocket without thinking much.

He originally thought that he would ask Murakami himself what was going on with this whiteboard card when he met Murakami himself at the appointed time in the afternoon, but he didn't expect that he could not wait until that time.

Because on this day, a super-large perpetual motion reactor out of control accident occurred in Xintong Shiye, which shocked the whole world, "zero point reversal".

The next time Ushio saw Murakami, he was on the list of confirmed casualties in the "Zero Reversal" accident.

He never had the chance to ask in person what the meaning of this blank card was.
