1432 、 Searching for the Truth
"Neo?! Ugh … "When Tang Yu heard the name, he felt like his head was about to explode. Almost every nerve in his brain was aching. The pain from the inside out caused him to squat on the ground and groan in pain. What was even stranger was that Jane Connor was also clutching his head in pain!
A trace of seriousness appeared on Morpheus' face. He said in a low voice, "This is an instinctive reaction of the brain. It is because your cognition is disrupted, or rather, contradictory. Now, don't think about anything else. Think about something else! Think about what you had for breakfast this morning. Think about the route you took to get here! "
Tang Yu did as he was told. His headache seemed to have lessened a little. He raised his head and said, "I want to save Peacock! I want to go now! So, no matter what you know, tell me everything! "His face was contorted by the pain.
"Of course you need to save your girlfriend, but that's not what you need right now," Morpheus said calmly.
"I don't have time to waste here!" Tang Yu said loudly.
"You need to spend some time so that you don't waste any more time. Please. " Morpheus said as he gestured for them to sit down. Behind them, a few stools had already been set up.
Tang Yu also calmed down a little. He nodded and walked over to pull out a stool to sit down. Jane Connor also walked over and sat beside Tang Yu.
The companions that Morpheus had brought with him immediately spread out and guarded the area. After that, Morpheus and Neo sat down and said expressionlessly, "I know you have a lot of questions, but I'm not the person to answer them. I just want to show you something. "
"What is it?" Tang Yu asked.
"The truth."
"I don't think I have any truth to find out other than why I'm being hunted," Tang Yu said.
"No, you have many more questions. For example, this world … "Morpheus was as still as a statue.
The world! Hearing his words, Tang Yu's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "What exactly do you know?"
"I know a lot about you. For example, you are the design director of General Motors, and you are designing and developing an advanced driverless car. And this project has received the attention of many powerful people that you would not expect. In other words, you are more important than you think, "Morpheus said.
"The same thing was said by those Black Agents! Then why? "Tang Yu said in a low voice.
"I can probably guess why, but I can't tell you the answer yet. Why don't we change the topic … "Morpheus spread his hands and said," Have you ever wondered what kind of world we live in? The sights we see, the things we touch, the sounds we hear, and the scents we smell tell us that this is a wonderful world. However, in such a world, there were always such things that you couldn't explain. For example, your ex-wife, Song Hana. "
"How do you know about Song Hana?!" Tang Yu's face darkened, and he asked coldly.
However, Morpheus did not answer this question. He only continued to say, "Anything we touch will be converted into a signal and then transmitted to our brain. Now, you are holding onto the armrest of the chair, and your brain is telling you that this is made of wood. Now, you are smelling a moldy smell, and your brain is telling you that this is caused by the damp furniture. But what if your brain is lying? For example, your brain is telling you that you once had a wife named Song Hana, and this is just a fake memory? "
"The memory of Song Hana in my brain is fake?!" Tang Yu suddenly stood up and asked loudly. He was extremely agitated. Although he had made such a guess before, now that the answer was right in front of him, he still could not accept it.
"According to our information, you have been investigating Song Hana's death, or rather, you have been investigating her life. You have discovered all sorts of strange phenomena. It is through this information, combined with what we know, that we came to the conclusion that Song Hana is just an illusion in your brain, a fake memory, "Morpheus said calmly.
"Then what is a real memory?!" Tang Yu asked anxiously.
Morpheus shook his head and said, "I don't know, because this is your memory. However, this memory of yours is also very important to us. Because that will tell us exactly what you put in the living room. However, although I can't tell you what your memory is, I can give you a chance to see it for yourself. "
"How do I see it?" Tang Yu asked.
Morpheus reached out with both hands and placed two capsules on each of them. One was red and the other blue. "The blue pill will allow you to return to your normal life. You can turn yourself in at the police station. Based on your level of importance, the agents should be willing to spare your life. Then, you can continue to live happily ever after with Peacock and enjoy your blissful life. If you take the red pill, you will say goodbye to this world and … go to a real world. The answer you want is there. "
Tang Yu thought about it and reached for the red pill without hesitation. However, Morpheus suddenly pulled back his hand, and Tang Yu grabbed nothing. Then he said, "Remember, after you take the red pill, you will lose everything. Design director? An eight-figure annual salary? Everything will disappear, and there will be no turning back. "
Tang Yu took a deep breath and said slowly, "If I take the red pill, will I still have a chance to save Peacock?"
"Peacock has fallen too deep. Later on, you will understand what I mean. Thus, I will not hide it from you. The chance of you saving her is fifty-fifty. However, there is one thing I can tell you with certainty. If you want to save Peacock, the red pill is a necessary prerequisite. "Morpheus stretched out his hand once more. The red pill rested in the middle of his palm, glittering and translucent.
Tang Yu reached out with two fingers and gently picked up the red pill. He placed it on his palm and inspected it. Next, he suddenly raised his head and shoved the pill into his mouth!
An indescribable pain exploded out from his brain once more! Next, an innumerable amount of information began to appear within his mind. The amount of information was so vast that it nearly caused his brain to explode in an instant! Additionally, unlike before, this time, the information was so clear, so detailed …
Tang Yu's entire being instantly entered a hazy state and countless images flashed before his eyes. He saw himself rising up from within a cocoon-shaped petri dish. He was surrounded by ferocious looking machines and countless humans trapped within the petri dish dish! He saw himself being flushed down the drain by the petri dish like a toilet! Next, he saw himself being brought onto a spaceship! He saw Morpheus and the others wearing coarse clothing surrounding him. The eye-catching sunglasses and trench coats were nowhere to be seen.
