Global recovery: A century of being stuck in the game

She is not interested in these things.

But Mrs. Qian was very enthusiastic and gave her a big piece directly: "Eat it quickly, this is new stuff from the supermarket, it's very fresh, others want to eat it but can't!"

Tao Yao pretended to pick up food from the bowl with chopsticks while casually glancing in the direction of the door: "Grandma Qian, who lives across the street?"

When Mrs. Qian heard the word "opposite", her face darkened: "Why are you asking this?"

Tao Yao: "Yesterday morning when I went out for a walk, I ran into the aunt next door. She invited me to her home..."

"What!" Old Mrs. Qian stood up suddenly, her face trembling, she was very emotional, and slammed her hands heavily on the table in anger: "This old woman!"

As she spoke, she was shaking violently, and the skin on her face was faintly oozing with blood, as if she was about to become weird, but she eventually regained her composure, turned around and walked out: "I'll go find her, you continue eating!"

Taoyao: "Okay."

Old Mrs. Qian ignored her, opened the door, and went out to knock on the door opposite.

Tao Yao casually put some of the meat on the table into her backpack, poured a little soup into the empty bowl to cover the bottom of the bowl, and stirred the bowl gently with chopsticks.

"You old woman, come out here! Do you hear me? Come out!"

Old Mrs. Qian was still banging on the door, one bang after another, sharp and piercing.

But no matter how hard she knocked, the door didn't move at all.

After a while, she came back, her hands behind her back, her face grim, and she muttered, "Don't let me find this old woman, or I'll make her pay!"

She looked up and saw Tao Yao, her anger still lingering: "Eat quickly!"

Taoyao raised her bowl and said, "Grandma Qian, I'm full. You should eat quickly too."

Old Mrs. Qian was stunned for a moment, then she noticed that more than half of the meat on the table was missing.

"So good." She smiled and praised, then sat back down and ate heartily, her mouth full of blood. She spoke to Tao Yao seriously, "The old woman next door is not a good person. Stay away from her. If I invite you to my house next time, tell her to come to me."

"Okay, I understand, Grandma Qian."

So good.

The more Mrs. Qian looked at it, the more she liked it: "Do you like eating these? I'll make them for you next time."

Tao Yao: "Okay, Grandma Qian's cooking skills are so good, I like it very much!"

You don't have to.

"It's good as long as you like it. It's good as long as you like it."

Tao Yao didn't say anything. The new meat in his backpack could barely be considered a prop.

[The broth carefully prepared by Mrs. Qian.]

Introduction: The food is delicious and is loved by the residents of the Aries community. 】

Although the scene is not very pleasant, this thing is still useful.

After having meal with Old Mrs. Qian, she took her to watch TV.

The whole day passed by dealing with Old Lady Qian.

As night fell, Old Mrs. Qian left as promised, and she was the only one left in the room.

Unlike yesterday's aimless wandering, tonight she had a clear goal and headed straight for Unit 5 in the dark.

Tonight's mission: Investigate 402.

The residents of room 402 were also among those who disliked Xinyu, so there were strange people guarding in front of unit , waiting for her to escape and then catch her red-handed.

But when she arrived, all those weird things gathered together, and one of them even had a person on his back.

So the weirdos went to divide the cake, which saved a lot of time.

Looking forward from downstairs, the windows were pitch black. There was no light and I didn't dare turn it on.

She pried open the door lock, walked in and closed the door. She didn't need to worry about the second bedroom at all, so she turned around and went into the master bedroom.

When the door was opened, there was no smell of decay as expected. I turned on my cell phone and with the faint light from the screen saver I could see that the room was very tidy, in stark contrast to Old Lady Qian's home.

She quickly found a notebook in the drawer.

April 23, 6, sunny.

My daughter is already eighteen years old and I have finally raised her. However, the neighborhood has become more and more dangerous recently. Many people have died for unknown reasons. How can I send my daughter out of the neighborhood?

……

July 23, 6, overcast.

Yesterday, something happened to the couple next door. It's almost my turn. What should I do? When will the people from the Weird Bureau find out that something is wrong in the community?

May 23, 6, light rain.

Today the sky is gray. My daughter said her classmate Xiaoli wanted to play with her. But Xiaoli and her mother died two months ago. Is she finally here? It's too late...

April 23, 6, sunny.

I finally found a way to save my daughter...

……

July 23, 6, overcast.

My wife is dead. I know she was also trying to be actively eroded and contaminated by the weirdness, but she failed. I will try again tomorrow. I only have this one child, and I will protect her no matter what.

The diary ends here, and the parts before this have been torn up.

But just from these few words, we can already associate some things.

The Aries Community was infected by weirdness, and people died one after another here. They could not get out and could only struggle to survive in the community.

Later, the owner of the diary chose to wake up and become a weird person. If his obsession was strong enough, he would protect his daughter.

Tao Yao paused, took pictures of the contents of the diary, and put them back where they were. He searched other places but found nothing else useful.

Combined with the information obtained from players in Area B, we can already piece together the outline of the situation.

Something happened in the neighborhood, and they tried their best to survive, but they couldn't find a way out. Finally, they came up with this idea.

Some people choose to become weird on their own initiative, and their only obsession is to protect humanity.

Yes, their obsession is human beings.

It seems a little ridiculous to say.

Because what they are doing now doesn't seem to be protecting humans.

But they are no longer human after all. After becoming monsters, if they are not strong enough, then their instinct as monsters will prevail over their obsession.

Therefore, because of their obsession, they will "protect" everyone who comes here like a pet, be kind to them, and give them everything they think is good.

However, because of their desire for flesh and blood, they will gradually lose their rationality, so when people are disobedient, they will instinctively attack humans.

This is a dead knot that can never be untied.

I don’t know how long this community has been weird, but what is clear is that the weirdness here has lost its original purity. On the one hand, they want to kill everyone, but on the other hand, they protect them because of their own obsession.

So it eventually evolved into what it is today.

When thinking about these things, Tao Yao couldn't help but feel some emotion in his heart.

Coming out of Unit 5, she glanced at Old Mrs. Qian who was walking not far away.

However, their obsessions during their lifetime were destined to be unfulfilled.

Because the people they were supposed to protect had already died in their hands.
