Jiu Zhengxuan

"But."

"I feel so relieved to have beaten you up like this."

Qin Yiguan looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "Come on, spit some blood from the corner of your mouth again. To be honest, you acted really well."

"You...!"

Jiu Zhengxuan looked at Qin Yiguan with a strange yet incredibly shocked expression. Unexpectedly, at that very moment, blood actually began to flow from the corner of Qin's mouth.

Jiu Zhengxuan quickly wiped himself clean, "I wasn't acting!!!"

Qin Yiguan pursed his lips. "Playing yourself is the highest level."

"You..."

Jiu Zhengxuan felt as if his heart had been wounded.

Then Qin Yiguan asked again, "Are you convinced?"

Jiu Zhengxuan was furious. "Submit? Do you think this is a fight between two children? You're the childish one! Why should I submit to you!"

"Regarding those cases, I've been racking my brains these past few days, gathering evidence, and I've finally come to an answer."

Qin Yiguan looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "If you submit to me, I'll share some of the truth with you."

"The truth?"

Jiu Zhengxuan suddenly paused, looking into Qin Yiguan's eyes, hesitating for a long time.

Finally, Jiu Zhengxuan slightly loosened his fist, turned his head to the side, and said, "I give up."

"Hehe."

Qin Yiguan's expression suddenly turned serious. "Then you'd better be mentally prepared."

Jiu Zhengxuan frowned slightly.

But then Qin Yiguan shot him a gaze, his voice low and deep. "Have you ever thought about why you're called Jiu Zhengxuan?"

"?"

Jiu Zhengxuan's expression crumbled slightly. "Why did I even think about that! That's my name, my name is Jiu Zhengxuan!!!"

But Qin Yiguan was still staring at him with piercing eyes.

Jiu Zhengxuan hesitated slightly, "You mean 'Nine'? My original surname was Lu, but my father said that the mother who nurtured me had the character 'Nine' in her name, so my everyday name is Jiu Zhengxuan, in memory of her!"

"Hehe."

"Commemorate?"

"You're so naive, you actually believe that?"

"Your father, Lu Zun, is truly a man of great vision."

Qin Yiguan smiled inexplicably, "Thirty years ago, he was just a minor official in the Metaverse Government, yet he had already begun cultivating his own children. Those children born through in-vitro fertilization were important pawns in his future plans."

Jiu Zhengxuan's eyes widened. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm only 18!"

You are indeed 18 years old.

But others may not.

Qin Yiguan slowly said, "Through a friend, I found out about your father's child-rearing information, but I only found out about the first three times. After that, he became a high-ranking official, and the information has been strictly kept confidential."

Jiu Zhengxuan was stunned. "What do you mean by 'the first three times'? What do you mean by 'others'?"

But Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes. "I once saw a charred figure in the basement of the Zanyin Group. I even thought it was you, and felt a little guilty."

"But less than 24 hours later, you appeared before me unharmed."

"Within the Metaverse, a user's body is linked to the logic of reality; this applies to life and death, as well as the speed of recovery from injuries."

Even with advanced medical technology in the Metaverse, it's impossible for you to recover from a charred corpse to a normal person in such a short time!

Therefore, the truth is obvious.

That person is not you.

"But he looks 90% like you!"

"To confirm this, I made a special trip to the Zanyin Group."

"Result..."

Qin Yiguan looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "Not only has that charred man disappeared, but Luo Sijie of the Zanyin Group has also lost all memories related to him. No matter how I ask him, he always firmly tells me that he never treated such a person!"

Jiu Zhengxuan's Pupil contracted slightly. "What do you mean?"

"And Teacher Qing."

Qin Yiguan frowned. "He occasionally thinks about the murderer who hurt him! The first time, he pointed at me and shouted 'murderer,' but I was quite shocked at the time and overlooked a detail. Looking back, I felt his eyes were very strange."

"And."

"Later, when I helped him change his clothes, I discovered that his arm had been dislocated due to the violent transport by those puppet robots."

Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes.

The scene of meeting Teacher Qing in the Rust City flashed through my mind.

Teacher Qing stretched out her dislocated arm and pointed tremblingly to her eyes.

"It was you! You shot down my city! It was you...!"

At that very moment, a puppet robot that looked exactly like Jiu Zhengxuan stood behind Qin Yiguan!

"Then."

"Teacher Qing's arm is impaired, making it difficult for him to control his direction precisely!"

"The murderer he was referring to..."

Qin Yiguan suddenly turned around and looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "It was actually you!"

A thunderclap exploded in Jiu Zhengxuan's heart, his Pupil shrinking sharply, "Me?! How could it be me!"

As for your maid, Auntie Lan...

Qin Yiguan recalled, "On the day she was murdered, I did go to your home in the Metaverse, but I only watched quietly from a distance."

"Guess what I saw?"

Qin Yiguan's gaze was unwavering. "I saw a hidden room in your house, where another version of you was hidden. He was disheveled, with lifeless and unfocused eyes!"

"His abilities are similar to those of Dark Creation, but he seems only able to create plants."

"He created vines and dismembered the maid, Auntie Lan."

He also said that he had eaten many of the foods made by Auntie Lan.

He wanted Auntie Lan to stay with him forever.

"But your father, Lu Zun, suddenly returned, forcing me to leave."

Qin Yiguan looked at Jiu Zhengxuan and continued, "When Auntie Lan died, there was blood everywhere. You must have gone back afterward, right? Was the floor of your house cleaned up long ago? Is your father, Lu Zun, trying to make me take the blame?"

At this moment, Jiu Zhengxuan's face had turned somewhat pale.

Qin Yiguan muttered to himself, "Lu Zun, we must cover up that underground compartment and the other ' Jiu Zhengxuan,' so he needs to clean up the scene and find a scapegoat!"

At this moment, Jiu Zhengxuan was speechless—there was indeed no blood on the ground when he returned home!

But Qin Yiguan continued, "Based on my guess, your father, Lu Zun, conceived multiple children through in-vitro fertilization! These children are all his tools!"

"Now that I think about it, why was your name Jiu Zhengxuan?"

"Because you are number nine!"

Jiu Zhengxuan froze completely, his eyes widening in disbelief. "Qin Yiguan, you're talking utter nonsense!"

"Shouting?"

"So Jiu Zhengxuan can swear too?"

"But congratulations anyway!"

Qin Yiguan said with a half-smile, "You have eight older brothers above you!"

"Perhaps a few have died, but at least three remain!"

"The coke in the basement of the Zanyin Group is one of them!"

"The murderer who killed Auntie Lan in the secret basement of your house is someone else!"

"But neither of them should be able to defeat Teacher Qing, so you have another older brother who looks extremely similar to you and is incredibly strong!"

"He!"

"They are the real culprits who hurt Teacher Qing!"

"It was also because of him that I inexplicably made Black Calamity take the blame. I seriously doubted myself and almost succumbed to self-blame!"

The boy in black clenched his fist slightly. "Teacher Qing is right. Killing will light my way. I will kill you, my brother! I will avenge Teacher Qing! Only then can I find peace!"

At this moment, Jiu Zhengxuan was trembling all over, his eyes filled with disbelief. The sudden shock had even rendered him unable to speak.

"Jiu Zhengxuan, you should feel fortunate!"

"Because all my reasoning is based on trust in you!"

Qin Yiguan suppressed his anger, his expression returning to calm. "Similarly, your father, Lu Zun, trusts you greatly, placing you in the public eye as a member of the 'Bright Youth Order Squad ' to gain the sympathy of the world. If one day his unknown, evil plan succeeds, you will be his best tool for whitewashing!"

Jiu Zhengxuan was on the verge of collapse, "This is impossible..."

"I remember."

Qin Yiguan recalled, "You said that you were locked in Black Room by Lu Zun since you were a child, in order to train your brainpower? To gain Fusion Rate, and to obtain the one-in-a-million Reality Enhancement?"

"Your eight older brothers should be the same."

"Only."

"You're the only 'finished product'."

"Not only did he gain Fusion Rate and the ' Black Room ' ability, but his mind was also undamaged, making him the only mentally sound one among the nine brothers!"

At this point, Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes slightly, "As for the one in the hidden compartment, the moment I saw him, I had a feeling—he's mentally ill! His mental illness stems from being locked in Black Room for so long, causing a mental breakdown!"

"In my experience, mental illness is a kind of ability within the Metaverse."

So, your eight older brothers are truly hidden talents!

now.

Jiu Zhengxuan suddenly screamed hysterically.

"Nonsense!"

"Qin Yiguan, you're talking nonsense!"

"That can't be!"

"My father is not that kind of person!"

I don't have any brothers!

"Teacher Qing, perhaps it wasn't you who harmed him, but it definitely wasn't my brother!"

"So what if you've seen a charred man!"

"You can't prove that it has anything to do with my father!"

"And what about the real killer who murdered Auntie Lan? How can you prove his existence?"

"What kind of in-vitro fertilization is this? That's utter nonsense!"

Jiu Zhengxuan roared, his eyes bloodshot!

It was at this time.

Jiu Zhengxuan felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason. He turned around inch by inch, and then his eyes widened in shock!

All I could see was behind me.

At some point, another figure appeared, and it was unclear how he managed to enter the ' Black Room ' so silently.

The newcomer bore a striking resemblance to Jiu Zhengxuan, almost like a twin.

He was also wearing a white suit, but it was covered in stains, and there was a huge black stain on his chest that looked like a drop of chocolate had been spilled and then wiped away by his palm.

His hair was disheveled, his face was pale, and he had dark circles under his eyes.

He seemed to be a malnourished and long-suffering Jiu Zhengxuan!

"Hey-hey."

He gave a sinister smile. "Father always says I'm disobedient and don't follow his orders. He always scolds me. Oh... because I turned Auntie Lan into a plant, he scolded me for a whole hour."

I think it's unfair.

"We're all the same, so why am I the only one who can hide underground?"

"Can you only see the light when you kill someone?"

He looked at Jiu Zhengxuan, "And you, you have always lived in the light, and in people's eyes, you are equivalent to the light?"

"Hey-hey."

"I am prepared to disobey my father's orders again, but I promise this will be the last time."

"Because I'm going to kill you and take your place."

Oh, by the way.

"My dear brother."

"Let me introduce myself."

My name is Seven Zheng Xuan.
