Chapter 622

Although I feel this kind of appearance is a bit deliberate. But after all, time is limited…… As an opening, being a bit deliberate is fine.

Boteo walked up and said: "Who are you, a person of Zhigengniao? No…… you are a Memorizer?"

Very keen intuition, but that identity is not important. I appear here only out of a pursuit of cinematic aesthetics.

What is his precious one saying?

Reke slightly bowed and said: "For you, my appearance is somewhat sudden and can be considered lacking preparation. Normally, I would never accept such an unrefined arrangement. But for this film, I am willing to set aside some of my insistence and provide a small connection for the two wanderers."

Oh, so you came from the Chaos-breaking faction? No wonder you speak as evasively as she does.

Reke's purpose for this trip is simple; he sees that the people here do not want to accept help from the family, and he proposes that if they want to get through the crisis without relying on the family's aid, they must sing their own 【Harmony】 song.

I have prepared a gift for you all; it is the outline of the next act. When you uncover it, you will naturally understand.

He pointed to the not‑far‑away stage used for performances and a sealed box.

Why should I trust you?

The fleeting madness flashed in Reke's eyes; he slowly closed his eyes, as if enjoying something: "In this play, I am both director and actor. For my final scene before wrapping up…… I have no reason not to pursue the utmost."

Spy × Family

The Harmony song?

Yor, who had just finished cleaning the living room, tilted her head, her expression quite confused: "Do you mean…… the kind of massive vocal chorus we heard in the church? Can that defeat the meme virus?"

Imagining everyone standing in neat rows, singing in unison, and then the monkeys below one by one turning back into human forms, the feeling…… is a bit strange.

"Of course it's not that simple, Yor. If it were just a big chorus, the problem would have been solved long ago; the key is "Harmony," which probably requires not only the voices to be in unison, but even more than just sound—it is a resonance of a "state."" Lloyd lowered the newspaper in his hand and shared his thought.

"State?" Anya hugged Bond, tilting her head in confusion, "Anya doesn't understand."

"Well…… simply put, their Harmony song should not be limited to the music of lyrics and melody as we understand it, like……" Lloyd's words trailed off slightly, his gaze sweeping over the living room, over the neatly arranged fruit on the table and the clean kitchen, until it reached Anya's expectant and curious eyes.

His heart stirred slightly.

"Just like our family——although our identities differ and our voices differ. But when our hearts face the same direction——for instance, wanting to maintain this family's happiness——these different "voices" will understand each other, coordinate with each other. This state of moving from difference toward harmony is probably what Mr. Reke means by the 【Harmony】 song."

Anya's big eyes lit up instantly: "I get it! So we just need to make everyone in Liúmèng Jiāo feel happy, right?"

Lloyd rubbed Anya's head with a smile, "Well…… actually not quite——never mind, Anya, your understanding is fine."

Boteo walked up to the huge box, intending to see what was inside.

Before lifting a corner, he had many guesses——and he also believed that no matter what he saw, he could maintain his habitual disdain and mock the other's pretentiousness. But after doing so……

"This is……" Boteo froze for a moment, but after a few seconds of dumbfounded silence, he burst into hearty laughter: "Ha…hahahaha!!"

"Actually, that's right! That little cutie has some skills. Wanting the people of Liúmèng Jiāo to sing the Harmony song—there really is no better way!"

"It's time to go back and see the big star! His precious one, this place really isn't lacking to the point of needing family help!"

Spirit Cage

Due to the angle limitation, nobody knew what Boteo had seen inside the box, and they discussed it heatedly.

"So what exactly did he see?" Shan Da scratched his head curiously, not quite sure what could make Boteo so excited.

"It's probably some kind of weapon or something—give the survivors of Liúmèng Jiāo a gun each, and they can take down Banana Helper on sight; in a sense that would completely solve Liúmèng Jiāo's safety problem."

"Um… you sure it's completely solved the safety problem? Or are you just magnifying the safety problem?" Xia Dou gave Xu Tong a somewhat speechless glance, "After dealing with Banana Helper, this bunch of armed people will start settling scores among themselves."

"I guess it's probably some kind of amplification device."

Bai Yue Kui's voice came from the passenger seat: "Similar to a loudspeaker—if the Harmony song is to spread throughout Liúmèng Jiāo, what's needed is precisely a device that lets everyone hear it."

"So is Boteo planning to invite Zhigengniao to form a choir? Use singing to fight the meme virus?" Xia Dou still thought this approach was a bit too crazy.

Xu Tong smacked his lips: "The point is 【Harmony】, Xia Dou. Besides, wasn't Reke's earlier plan to cut out the Luanpo ninja virus and cover the little monkey virus? Maybe after this song is sung, the people of Liúmèng Jiāo will turn into those Luanpo ninjas—or maybe not."

Boteo returned to Mika's side and happened to see that the two had worked out some results.

Seeing Mika looking rather embarrassed, Boteo joked, "What's up, buddy? In a bit I'll have to learn to greet the family."

"Quite the opposite. In Liúmèng Jiāo, that's absolutely impossible to happen. After all, I'm just a night watchman, not the leader of Liúmèng Jiāo, and I shouldn't interfere with the residents' right to choose."

"Choice? Do you really think they becoming monkeys is voluntary?"

Mika shook his head: "That's exactly what I'm saying. For those who pursue freedom, I don't believe they'd willingly erase themselves to gain happiness. I won't stop them from rushing toward destruction, but the premise is… they must be able to make a clear decision."

"Ha, exactly like that!"

"If someone wants to become a monkey, I don't deny that's an aspiration. But at least, Miss Zhigengniao can put the right to choose back in front of them."

Zhigengniao: "There is indeed a way to resolve the imminent crisis in Liúmèng Jiāo without anyone noticing. Since the tuning of 【Harmony】 can eliminate noise, if the residents are willing to sing harmonious music under my guidance, perhaps we can dispel the evil melody echoing in Liúmèng Jiāo."

"But considering some residents' prejudice against the family, this might not be an easy thing."
