Ten minutes after Chen Chen threw the Rubik's Cube, Chen Chen saw the black vortex in front of him begin to shrink rapidly. In just the blink of an eye, the black vortex collapsed into a ball.
Then with a pop, like a flame extinguished, it completely disappeared from Chen Chen's sight.
Chen Chen knew that Xiao X had responded to him.
He did not let these black knights or Yashenji return to reality, because Chen Chen was not even sure whether these brainless clones would be infected with weird events. If they were really infected, then once they returned to reality, they would only bring a certain impact on reality. A special 'infectious disease' with no solution.
Even if this 'infectious disease' breaks out, it will only bring destruction to the world, just like the world of "Killing City".
Therefore, the only thing Chen Chen can do is to completely isolate himself and others from reality.
Of course, Chen Chen would not sit still and wait for death, otherwise he would not have asked Xiao X to prepare a Faraday cage.
I just hope that Xiao X can move faster.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen raised his head. At this time, the setting sun had begun to set in the west, dyeing the endless sunset glow on the horizon red. At first glance, it looked like endless flaming clouds, burning the entire sky red.
At this moment, the abandoned city, the fallen civilization, and the burning clouds in the sky reflected each other, making Chen Chen feel a special kind of loneliness in his heart.
It's like being abandoned by the world.
However, as the visibility became lower and lower, the uncertainty in Chen Chen's heart began to increase.
He couldn't tell what it felt like. It was like a death row prisoner facing trial. Any sound of footsteps would make him feel frightened, because he had realized that those were the footsteps of the God of Death.
At this time, Chen Chen also felt the same way.
"Yakami Temple."
At this moment, Chen Chen suddenly spoke and asked the boy beside him, "Have you heard the crash coming from next door?"
"Is that... a weird event?"
Yagamiji, who was also feeling a little uneasy next to him, suddenly raised his head. He seemed to understand something, "Please continue."
"I entered a strange room during the day yesterday. There was a woman in the room, but she was already dead. She hanged herself."
Chen Chen said silently, "But what's strange is that there are marks made with a baseball bat on the wall of her bedroom. It seems that she hit the wall with a baseball bat during her lifetime."
"What's on the other side of that wall?"
Taking advantage of Chen Chen's pause, Yashensi asked quickly.
A flash of approval flashed in Chen Chen's eyes. He was indeed a young man who could survive from the apocalypse to this day. Did he become acutely aware of the most critical condition after just the beginning of his story
Thinking of this, Chen Chen immediately replied, "On the opposite side of the bedroom wall is another family. I have also been in that house, but there is a lot of dust there. It seems that when the end comes, it will be uninhabited, but..."
Chen Chen's voice became lower and deeper, "However, I saw an impact mark on the wall of this house. The impact mark has sunk into a small part of the wall. In other words, something is constantly hitting the wall, as if it wants to Until the wall is broken through."
"What if we change rooms?" Yagamiji asked again.
"The woman did change a bedroom at that time, but the same was true in the new bedroom. There was still that banging sound coming from the opposite side of the wall."
Chen Chen replied, "Not only that, I also found some oil stains on the wall of the bedroom here. It seems that the woman before her death often lay on the same position on the wall, listening with one ear on the other side."
Yagamiji's expression suddenly flashed when he heard this, "I understand, I think it should be like this."
"That woman lived alone in that room, but one day, she suddenly heard a faint banging sound on the opposite side of the wall. At first she thought there was someone in the opposite room, but because this was the end of the world, there was no law and morality, so She couldn't tell whether the other party was friend or foe, so she could only keep putting her ear against the wall, trying to hear the conversation on the other side."
"But gradually, she realized something was wrong."
Yagamiji walked slowly and said as he walked, "Maybe there is something special about this impact sound, such as it lasts for a particularly long time, or the rhythm is particularly uniform or something. Gradually, the woman began to suspect that the sound on the other side of the wall was something special. The impact, was it a person? Or something else... "
"As time passed, the crashing sound continued, even to the point where it continued throughout the day and night. Finally, the woman collapsed."
Yagamiji continued, "The sound seriously affected her sleep and made her heartbeat. At this time, she had vaguely understood that the sound was definitely not made by humans, but was the most feared thing in her heart..."
"So, she finally broke down and started to take out a baseball bat and hit the wall here, constantly venting her inner fear. It seemed that as long as she showed her fierce side, the other party would retreat. This is a human fear. common psychology at the time.”
"Then, she tried countless possibilities, but in the end she couldn't find a solution, or she had a vague understanding of what would happen after the collision."
Having said this, Yashensi looked at Chen Chen again, "This is all the logic of the woman's actions and mental journey that I guessed. In the end, she thought that instead of dying at the hands of strange events and suffering fear and torture, it was better to Why don't you commit suicide? Am I right?"
After listening to Ye Shensi's analysis, Chen Chen immediately applauded, "It's very good. It's exactly as I guessed. But I can't guarantee whether it's correct or not."
"I understand, it's just this weird thing that caused you to be infected."
Yagamiji nodded, "I just don't know how you were infected with this strange incident. If there are more clues, maybe we can find a countermeasure."
"I don't know either, but I have some guesses."
Chen Chen thought for a while, pointed at the three black knights and said, "Perhaps the whole room is a curse. As long as you enter, you will be infected by this 'crash' strange event. The reason why I am only infected is because the three people next to me are all infected." Not fully human.”
"Not fully human?"
Hearing Chen Chen's words, Yashensi couldn't help but be stunned, and then said, "I have long thought that these three people are too rigid, but I just don't understand what it means to not be a complete human being, a clone?"
"Not only are they clones, but because they were specially treated from the embryonic stage, these people actually do not have brains."
Chen Chen explained, "The reason why these people act as usual is just because they are controlled by the X-112 artificial intelligence I have been talking to."
"But this doesn't make sense. After all, weird events don't distinguish whether a person has a brain or not..."
When he heard the identities of the three people, Yagamiji showed a look of surprise, but after thinking about it, he shook his head again, "So I think it is more likely that there are other infection conditions, and only you triggered this condition. , so I was infected with this strange event called 'Impact Sound'."
