cargo
After being surprised for a moment, the audience immediately knocked out a barrage on the public screen.
"Is this the car in the museum?!"
"How come you stop here..."
"There seem to be two people in the car? It seems to be Ke Xu and Xie Ji? Are they two?"
"This is kind of weird."
"Someone use their imagination and guess why the two of them are here?"
"I suspect that Xie Ji went to Ke Xu, and then the two of them quarreled again? Or Xie Ji wanted to prove his conjecture, so he went here with Ke Xu?"
"Then why stop at the door of the library?"
"Unintelligible. Why don't they get out of the car?"
The van stopped there quietly, but through the window glass, the audience could clearly see that there was a man and a woman sitting in the driver’s and co-pilot’s seats, and they were talking excitedly to each other what.
So some viewers sent out a barrage slightly confused: "Are they arguing?"
However, because this is just an empty scene, there is no way to adjust the perspective without the task force, and the audience can't hear their voices at all, so no one knows what they are arguing about.
But soon, the situation turned around.
About three to five minutes later, Ding Yi and Mu Jiashi appeared at the entrance of the library.
They heard the sound of the engine coming and stopping abruptly, and the sharp and piercing sound of the brakes attracted their attention.
Ding Yi glanced at the window on the third floor of the library and saw the van parked in front of the library.
She immediately realized that some strange changes had taken place in the nightmare. This van should have appeared from the museum after 3:30 and headed for the space agency, but now it's only three o'clock, it has appeared and stopped at the entrance of the library.
Ding Yi didn't know what had happened, but now that the change had happened, she immediately put down the information in her hands.
That document was a very important document found by Ding Yi in the reading room on the third floor, apart from the dispute over unknown objects.
Perhaps it is not very useful for this nightmare, but at least it allows them to pry into more secrets about the past.
That is a trace to the source of the madness that has spread to human society inexplicably.
Before that, Wu Jian had told the taskers the book he found on the second floor of the library, and that book was more narrative and description, while the material in Ding Yi's hand was more professional.
The author of this information, and his companions spent more than a year, carefully searching and comparing the time of the madness in different regions, and finally they found the origin of the madness—
It seems so, after all, there is no tangible evidence to prove their conclusion.
In their research, the origin of madness, or rather, the center, is located in Cangcheng where they are now.
To be more precise, it is the blockade.
"If this spreading madness is like an infectious disease, a plague, then the source of its outbreak, (more strictly speaking, the first infected person with the corresponding symptoms.) appeared in that apartment building."
Ding Yi didn't know the specific derivation process of this conclusion. Time was limited, so she could only pay attention to the most important conclusion first.
But that apartment building? That blockade
Fei and Wujian have already informed the rest of the task force of their gains, and their words did not emphasize that blockade.
In their view, the old man outside the blockade is the person who is really related to this nightmare.
But for Ding Yi, this is not the case. She has always been brooding about the existence of that blockade.
She knew that the nightmare corresponding to this blockade was the nightmare that trapped Sister Jiang.
Two of her subordinates once told her about the nightmare in detail, and she also got some tips from Mu Jiashi.
She also knew that the nightmare was the nightmare of the neighbor of the mysterious bookstore owner at the bottom of the narrow building.
These relationships are in a circumstance and chaos, but Ding Yi really cares about the existence of this nightmare.
But the origin of madness
Ding Yi couldn't help frowning deeply.
The problem is that in that nightmare, there were no lunatics in the apartment and the commercial district.
Those refined furniture—in other words, those who are trapped in the Internet...
Ding Yi was startled suddenly.
She thought, people trapped in the network
Doesn't that fit their status quo
Ding Yi was panic for a while, always feeling that he seemed to have discovered some special clues.
She jotted it down secretly, and then thought, the crux of the problem is that the two characteristics of refined furniture and crazy humans do not particularly match.
So, why did the investigator come to the conclusion that the blockade was the origin of the madness? Obviously their final performance is not the same!
Ding Yi looked through this information and finally realized that it was because there were indeed lunatics in that blockade.
However, in this material, the so-called "fine furniture" is avoided, and only the moment when the lunatic appears.
And if you look only at the appearance of lunatics, then indeed, that blockade is indeed the first place where inexplicable lunatics appeared since records.
But this surprised Ding Yi again.
There is no mention of fine furniture, so... what does this phenomenon mean? It is also a symbol of madness, or is there another mystery
Ding Yi felt a little puzzled.
More, it is an uncontrollable panic.
She took the document and started to daze.
After that, she heard the sound of the engine and the sudden braking sound from the street outside.
Ding Yi walked to the window and took a look, and realized that it was a van from the museum, so he put down the materials and went to the first floor of the library with Mu Jiashi. He Shujun also slowly followed behind them.
At a glance, they saw a man and a woman arguing fiercely in the van, and one of them was Ke Xu that Ding Yi met at the side entrance of the museum during the last round of nightmares.
She frowned slightly and kept walking, and came to the side of the truck. Before she could say hello to the two people, she had heard the content of their quarrel.
Ding Yi stopped and listened attentively.
In the live broadcast room, Xu Bei put the live broadcast's perspective on Ding Yi's body, and the audience could finally hear what they were arguing with.
"Don't think about those things anymore, Aji. Obviously we will get married next month, can you not be so pessimistic? We will not die, and there will be no accidents in this world..."
Unexpectedly, Ke Xu's tone was very polite, which was completely opposite to the irritable and impatient appearance when he appeared before. For others, it is really different from treating fiancee.
However, Xie Ji didn't seem to agree with Ke Xu's ideas.
She screamed: "No! No! The end is coming! Really... You believe me, Ke Xu, you really have to believe me."
Following her words, Ke Xu gradually became anxious: "Believe you? But how do I believe you?! Believe that we will die next moment, believe that we will go to Huangquan together soon
"Aji, you should be sober. It's not that I don't want to believe you, but... Isn't this really a fantasy? Something will fall from the sky? Who would believe this kind of thing!"
Xie Ji was already crying lowly: "That's why I asked you to go to the space agency, and you can take a look in person, okay? Something is really going to happen, I didn't lie to you. Really...we are all going to die..."
Ke Xu breathed in and out deeply, he didn't want to argue with Xie Ji. They were already arguing that everyone knew last night, so he was even more reluctant to do it.
However, he did not want to believe Xie Ji's statement.
It's unwilling, not really unbelief.
He held the steering wheel tightly, his body trembling. He thought, why Xie Ji didn’t understand...
Why doesn't she understand that the focus is on death, not what she has been saying, believing or not
That is, that is death. Death at hand.
Ask him to admit that he is about to die, and let him die generously... How is it possible
Who can face the eternal and silent death without changing his face? This is not a game, this is reality, this is death that can only turn into the icy ashes of the grave once it dies.
This is not a game that can be resurrected with a click of a mouse, death.
So Ke Xu already felt deeply tired.
He stared blankly at the road in front of the car.
An inexplicable anger and powerlessness drove him, and he almost couldn't help quarreling with Xie Ji.
That's how they quarreled last night.
If Ke Xu told Xie Ji about death, Xie Ji would say that she was afraid of many things, but she was not afraid of death. So why is Ke Xu afraid of death
And if Ke Xu said that he didn't believe it, there could be no such thing, then Xie Ji would say it again.
No, how could he not believe her? That was what she saw with her own eyes, and that was a disaster that would inevitably fall on this planet.
After all, Ke Xu thought, Xie Ji just wanted him to admit that he was going to die.
Their wedding will never be done again.
Thinking of this, Ke Xu couldn't help but pat the steering wheel hard. Anxiety and fear made his facial expression especially distorted.
The van made a beep, which shocked Ke Xu himself.
He subconsciously looked out, only then did he notice a few people standing outside the car.
He frowned, his always-tempered temper tumbling again. He opened the car window and asked impatiently: "What are you doing around here?!"
Ding Yi stared at him carefully, confirming that Ke Xu did not remember the process of the last nightmare.
She pondered for a moment, and then said: "We heard your quarrel... about, unknown objects in the sky."
Ke Xu frowned, just about to speak, but was interrupted by Xie Ji.
Xie Ji directly opened the door and got out of the car. The woman in the Big Bang dress came to Ding Yi and asked urgently: "You know... you believe it, right?! This is indeed the case! Please! Please help, please help me persuade Ke Xu..."
"Enough!" Ke Xu finally couldn't help but got out of the car and shouted loudly, "I admit it! I believe you! Then, what's the point?! Aren't we going to die?!"
Xie Ji looked at him blankly.
Ke Xu was trembling with anger, he didn't know why he was so angry.
His temper is not good, but he has always treated his fiancee very tolerantly, but at this moment, he feels a kind of boiling, flame-like anger.
He said: "You want me to admit that I am going to die, right? Yes, that's right! I am going to die! Let's die together, okay?! What do you want me to do?!"
In the quarrel last night, he remained silent at first, but as Xie Ji's mood became more and more fluctuating and heavier, he was eventually infected and confronted her.
But he thought all this was over. He thought that after the quarrel last night, Xie Ji had given up his plan to tell him about this matter. He didn't want to face such a possibility, he didn't want to believe it.
It's not that he doesn't believe it, it's just that he doesn't want to admit this reality.
What reality
That is, they really might be dying.
How ridiculous.
The woman who was about to enter his marriage for the next few decades told him that we were going to die. We have no future anymore.
And she even wanted him cruelly, she must admit this fact.
Ke Xu looked at Xie Ji fiercely, and said without a word: "So, are you satisfied? When you are satisfied, just shut up. I beg you, stop talking!"
Xie Ji's eyes were blank. After Ke Xu started a big fire, she seemed to be frightened.
She gradually paled, and said slowly: "Ke Xu, I am not afraid of death... I am not afraid. What I am afraid of is that even if I die, I don't know why I died..."
But Ke Xu said: "But I am afraid of death." He said, "I am willing to die without knowing it. Just let me die like this, Ji, please."
Xie Ji's expression was gradually becoming painful, she didn't understand why the man she loved so much thought. Why does he think completely opposite to her
Maybe they can live together peacefully in normal times. However, when disaster struck, their lives were completely changed overnight. They can no longer live together peacefully.
Xie Ji sat down on the ground and let out a mournful cry.
Ding Yi watched all this blankly, not understanding what was going on. Why did this unmarried couple quarrel like this? At the moment of the disaster, they are still arguing over their own ideas.
Perhaps, there is indeed no time. The only time left is enough for them to quarrel and struggle over each other's ideas.
Xie Ji instilled the thought of doomsday into Ke Xu over and over again, and maybe she just hoped, Ke Xu said to her, "It's okay, we must die together. We will always be together."
But it is obvious that Ke Xu is not such a character.
Therefore, Ding Yi could only watch the scene before him, silently.
Finally, she turned her attention back to the nightmare itself. Looking at the man and woman, she couldn't help but mutter to herself: "So, who is the owner of this nightmare?"
Her eyes fell on Ke Xu.
All signs indicate that Ke Xu is the master of this nightmare. He is a man, and there is a reason for this nightmare: his fiancee may have died in the heavenly fire.
If it is to be safe, then the taskers may be able to wait until the end of this round of nightmares to see if Xie Ji died in this disaster when the sky fire descends.
However, Ding Yi always felt that this was a bit dangerous. They cannot let the nightmare collapse.
Just like the nightmare she and Mu Jiashi have experienced together, letting it go once, the nightmare will continue to collapse.
If it weren't for Mu Jia's ability to turn the tide, then they are likely to fall into that nightmare.
So Ding Yi hopes that this nightmare will be solved in this round. There is enough time.
Just as she was thinking, two men and two women walked over the road to the west. It was Cuntou and Ye Lan, they also brought Xu Xiaoli and Zhang Minglian over, using the same excuse as the previous nightmare.
The two taskers returned from the residential area to the door of the library, and looked at the scene with a little surprise.
Cuntou made a joke: "Oh, everyone is here, it's very lively."
The tasker and the couple glanced indifferently.
Cuntou was boring to ask for himself, snorted angrily, and then began to understand the situation.
Then, he looked at the man and the woman thoughtfully, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "That Ke Xu must be the master of this nightmare, right?"
Ding Yi hesitated to speak but stopped.
She thinks so, but she thinks something is wrong.
Ding Yi may not know the three major contradictions summarized by the reasoning boss in the live broadcast room, but she has also realized that there seems to be something wrong in this nightmare.
Cun Tou looked at her expression, thought about it, and said, "Well, let's use a panel card."
Ding Yi was startled.
Cuntou said: "This kind of bad street prop card, it doesn't hurt to use it."
He made this decision, not just based on the tastelessness of the panel card.
More importantly, when he saw that Ke Xu and Xie Ji were both here, he realized that Fei and Wu saw it over there and mostly got nothing. And they better solve this nightmare as soon as possible.
It's a big deal to enter this nightmare next time and have a true ending. It's okay.
For taskers from higher levels like Cuntou, the more the nightmare collapses, the more dangerous the situation becomes.
He didn't want to sink into the nightmare of eternal collapse, especially after experiencing so many nightmares, and leaving everything behind and returning to the bottom of the narrow building.
He just wants to confirm safety as much as possible and guarantee his own safety.
So he put forward this proposal.
Generally speaking, questers always avoid the existence of prop cards in their nightmares. They are worried that their item cards will be stolen, and they are also worried that others will misunderstand that they have an attempt to their item cards.
Therefore, many taskers simply treat the item card as non-existent.
But Chuangzou does not have this concern.
After all, when he and Ye Lan entered this nightmare, they only brought one panel card—
Yes, I only brought a bad street panel card. He felt that when he entered this nightmare for the first time, he mainly focused on collecting information and did not need to do his best.
Therefore, at this time, he also mentioned the option of the panel card without hesitation.
This is a shortcut.
Generally speaking, taskers will not encounter such embarrassing situations in nightmares.
They also did not expect that in this nightmare, they were completely unable to determine who the owner of the nightmare was.
Indeed, in some nightmares, there will be some distracting items. However, as the nightmare progresses, the taskers will naturally realize who the owner of the nightmare is.
For example, the nightmare that Fei and Wujian had gone to before. The further forward, the truth that the little girl is the owner of the nightmare becomes more obvious and clear. In the end, it has become their consensus, even if the little girl is very inconsistent with the image of the narrow-building resident.
However, in this nightmare, this is not the case.
The nightmare has reached the third round, but they still cannot confirm the owner of the nightmare;
Even Ke Xu and Xie Ji, both of them may be the masters of nightmares.
Although Xie Ji does not match the gender of the residents in the narrow buildings outside, but... what if
Maybe she went for a sex reassignment surgery, or... For example, in a nightmare, he treated himself as a woman? Maybe he is also a lunatic
Or maybe it was Ke Xu who died in the sky fire descending into the world, and Xie Ji, in grief, began to imitate and act like his fiancé, and gradually turned the fake to the real
After all, in the narrow building, it is impossible for them to be hooligans to personally confirm the gender of the residents of the narrow building.
They were just guessing instinctively based on the voices, body shapes, etc. of the residents of the narrow buildings. Maybe the resident of the narrow building is actually a woman
In short, everything is possible.
The panel card can at least help them confirm who the owner of the nightmare is.
So Ding Yi said after being surprised, "Then I will trouble you." She paused, and then said, "If you want, I can compensate you later."
As a billionaire on the bottom of a narrow building, Ding Yi has given up the business empire he once built.
However, Ding Yi, who has a large family, still has wealth that ordinary taskers can't imagine.
Cuntou refused the offer with a grimace: "You are so kind. But no, it's just a panel card."
Ding Yi nodded, and didn't have a hot face against his cold ass. Her prop card would make people instinctively believe what she said. For example, at this time, Cun Tou didn't doubt whether she would say a good thing casually.
However, not all of her proposals can be accepted unconditionally.
Since Cuntou refused, Ding Yi followed him.
On the side, Mu Jiashi glanced at Cuntou faintly, thinking, stupid high-level tasker.
Haven't been to the bottom of the narrow building several times? Haven't heard of Ding Yi's name? Do you know that you are wrong
It seems that I don't know.
Cuntou, who didn't know what he missed, took a few steps forward, took out a prop card from his arms, and pointed it at Ke Xu.
After a while, he said: "I haven't run away, he is the master of the nightmare."
Ding Yi was a little surprised: "It's really him?" She paused, and then said, "It's not that I can't understand..."
Ke Xu looked at them inexplicably.
Cuntou pinched his chin and stared at Ke Xu: "He was afraid, terrified... It should be Xie Ji's death, right? So, if Xie Ji's death can be avoided, the nightmare should be over."
"But this is mostly just an ordinary ending." Ding Yi said, "Once the identity of the nightmare owner is confirmed, the ending is obvious."
They were discussing, and suddenly they heard two shouts from a distance.
Fei, Wu Jian, and Long Haired Man finally walked back to the library from the space agency. In addition, Xu Beijin, Ringo and Lu Chengzhe also walked out of the library.
Now, except for the two old men, all the key figures of this nightmare are gathered here.
And said in amazement: "You have confirmed that Ke Xu is the owner of the nightmare?" He couldn't help but said, "However, Fei and I think that Xie Ji is more likely to be the owner of the nightmare."
