Chapter 892: The Jinxed Inheritance
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Bohemia was instantly shocked and took a step back, almost hitting the wall.
“Ah?” She could only utter that one word for a moment. “How did you… How did you know?”
“Guessed right? Stepping aside?” The shadow on the left asked, crossing his legs.
“With just a few words, we don’t know our accuracy rate.” The shadow on the right replied calmly.
Bohemia took a deep breath, trying to organize her thoughts in her mind and slowly extract the information she wanted to ask. However, after thinking for a few seconds, she couldn’t find a way to do it. She suddenly became irritated, “I can’t stand your behavior! Just tell me any information you have!”
“People who don’t know how to ask questions,” the one on the left said.
“…also don’t know how to find information,” the one on the right continued the second half of the sentence.
“Your mother doesn’t know how to find information.”
“Our mother indeed doesn’t know.” The one on the left said.
Bohemia pulled out the small bag Lin Sanjiu gave her and shook it vigorously in the air. “Can’t this at least replace a question?”
“Based on the size of the bag and the sound it makes, it’s either barely enough or it’s a bag of stones.” The one on the right answered.
Bohemia’s unruly temperament, like an unextinguished spark, reignited after leaving Lin Sanjiu. Without a word, she threw a red crystal at the face of the shadow on the right. “Stone, my ass!”
Indeed, the shadow in the darkness exclaimed, holding his nose and bending over, curling up into a ball.
At the same time, the one on the left also exclaimed, “Ah!” in pain, speaking with a nasal voice. “You don’t have to use so much force even if you’re paying!”
“How cliché,” Bohemia sneered. “So, twins definitely have a physical and mental connection, huh? You guys have no originality at all.”
“It is indeed a red crystal.” The one on the right seemed to have recovered from the pain, picked up the red crystal from the ground, and couldn’t help but give a comment. He thought for a moment, appearing somewhat unsure how to respond, and explained, “This is natural, not something we…”
“Enough, let’s get to the point.” Bohemia waved her hand impatiently. “Who cares about your conjoined twin situation.”
“Your money is probably not enough to pay.”
“Stop talking nonsense,” she spat. “Didn’t I just reveal important information to you? Do you think I don’t know how important that information is? If we convert it into money, it’s enough to buy you two ten times over.”
“No, that’s not what we meant… What we mean is, we can let go of the red crystal, but you have to exchange information with us.”
Bohemia raised an eyebrow, realizing that these twins still didn’t seem to have a clear understanding of the Great Deluge.
“Since you are not aware, how did you know that the order of the Doomsday World is going to collapse?”
“That’s a good question—”
“Don’t reveal trade secrets!” The one on the left shouted, and the one on the right immediately shut his mouth. After a pause, both of them sighed simultaneously. The slightly more composed shadow on the left spoke.
“I can provide you with the internal information of the Twelve Organizations that you are concerned about.” The left one seemed to have made a decision, and his speech became smoother. “Regarding the Great Deluge, currently, not many people are aware of it.”
…It feels like they just made some analysis based on what they said earlier and coincidentally obtained that piece of information about the “imminent collapse.” As for the specific details, they clearly have no knowledge of them.
Bohemia clicked her tongue in her mind.
The problem was, she didn’t know the specific details either! What could she exchange with them? After thinking for a few seconds, she decisively gave up. Since these twins didn’t know that she didn’t know, she would first deceive them into revealing the information she wanted to ask. She could deal with the rest later.
“Even if some people know, the number must be very small, and we haven’t noticed it,” the one on the right added at the exact moment when she made up her mind.
“And, the people who know about the Great Deluge haven’t taken any action regarding this issue, at least not yet.”
True, Lin Sanjiu had only just decided what to do last night, and she wasn’t even sure if she had any certainty… Bohemia nodded and raised a question, “But so many strange things have happened, like the Medical Station—why hasn’t anyone become suspicious?”
“You’re right. The ‘anomalous factors’ data in Heaven Underworld over the past five months has indeed shown significant fluctuations,” the one on the left said calmly.
“About ten posthumans who haven’t reached the transmission period have inexplicably disappeared. We suspect that this is only noticed because they are members of the Twelve Organizations. Besides these Twelve Organizations members, there may be more posthumans who have silently disappeared without anyone knowing.”
“Due to the small amount of data, there have been hardly any ripples spreading,” the left one regretfully stated, “It’s difficult for us to draw conclusions.”
Bohemia suddenly remembered the exit in the Orange Orchard that should have been guarded.
“One consular officer lost their ability and regressed to an ordinary person, causing an uproar in the Consular Officer association. They thought that someone had developed items or abilities targeting consular officers,” the one on the right added details, “Not just one witness claimed to have seen a pocket dimension detaching from its original location and wandering around the world. Four to five precious special items hidden at the ‘Summit of the Sea Mountain’ have become useless scrap materials. And there’s one crucial thing that made us suspicious. We have been closely monitoring it for seventeen days.”
“What is it?” Bohemia perked up her ears.
“There has been a power rift within the Twelve Organizations.”
“Say it again in plain language.”
The left one sighed and muttered, “Hard to earn money, hard to eat shit,” then explained from the beginning, “Power struggles have always been common within the Twelve Organizations. However, recently we discovered—”
“Only in Heaven Underworld,” the right one hastily added.
“…Yes, only within the Twelve Organizations of Heaven Underworld, both in terms of opinion flow and power hierarchy, there have been unprecedented changes that cannot be explained by any sample or precedent.”
“Do you call that plain language?”
While the one on the left kept silent, the one on the right spoke up, “…The winds have changed.”
“What winds?”
They exchanged a glance in the darkness, seemingly unable to comprehend Bohemia’s understanding.
“Well, let’s give you an example,” the one on the left raised a finger.
“For instance, a high-level decision-maker in the Munitions Factory makes a decision that requires lower-level members to complete a certain task.”
“In theory, this command should be passed down through the power hierarchy until it reaches the final executor,” they spoke seamlessly, as if sharing the same mind.
“But now there are cracks in this power hierarchy,” the one on the right nodded.
“It’s broken,” the one on the left clapped their hands together and separated them, perhaps indicating the meaning of being severed.
“We weren’t on-site, so we don’t know exactly what happened. We can only tell you what we’ve seen from the overall data landscape.”
“More and more mid- to high-level executives—”
“Most of them were previously in power,” the right one added.
“—have lost their power. Some are aware of their situation and have fled, some have stayed and resisted, but many mid- to high-level executives haven’t realized that they are effectively powerless. The forces resisting, neutralizing, and shifting the influence of these executives come from different directions. Before you arrived, we were investigating who these people are and how they achieved it.”
“All of this is analyzed and summarized from thousands of fragmented intelligence, details, and seemingly unrelated information,” the right one seemed to boast.
“All the anomalies that just happened, within the Twelve Organizations—”
“Some of the Twelve Organizations, it hasn’t spread yet,” the right one reminded.
“Yes, some of the organizations within the Twelve Organizations have interpreted the recent abnormal events as the work of hostile forces. It’s not surprising because there are forces within their ranks that drive this perception—it can be deduced from a few details.”
They spoke too quickly, and Bohemia found it difficult to follow. Finally, she managed to grasp the situation.
“Do you understand all of this so clearly?” she asked with suspicion. “If the Twelve Organizations find out, would they let you off?”
As soon as she finished speaking, the wall behind her suddenly shook heavily, almost knocking her down.
