[Science Fiction] Escape from Paint City

The woman and child were taken out and placed on the ground. Shuichen and Sha Qianxing's hands were covered with blisters from the high temperature.

His nerves suddenly relaxed, and Shui Chen thought of the three of them lying side by side on the bed motionless like corpses, and shivered unconsciously.

"This is a mandatory lunch break? Why didn't the protection mode on them work?"

Only this reason can explain their abnormality, Shui Chen thought, and couldn't help being confused.

During the day, the Qicheng people are still in a normal state, and the protection mode of the chip should control them to leave the fire scene in time.

And the fire came out of nowhere,

But Sha Qianxing thought of something, and his face was a little hesitant.

Shui Chen noticed it and asked Sha Qianxing, "What's wrong?"

Sha Qianxing said directly: "I am equivalent to a virus to you. The longer I stay in Qicheng, the more the city will collapse and more disasters will happen."

If the watchers were ruthless, they would ignore them, but Sha Qianxing was still a little soft-hearted. He always felt that these people were still living beings, but with more limitations.Besides, being in contact with them is also beneficial for Shuichen to know more and recover more.

Of course, if they threatened Shuichen, he would strike without hesitation.

"Now there may be a fire all over the city. It doesn't look serious at the moment, but the chips of people in my area will fail, so there is no response."

Sha Qianxing continued to add: "You can go to other streets to have a look alone, and you will be sure."

Hearing what Sha Qianxing said, Shuichen thought of something else.

"Alright, now that your shielding mode has expired, it's inconvenient to follow me to save people."

The two originally planned to sneak into the Science Affairs Office during the city's lunch break, but were interrupted by the unexpected fire, and could only look for the next opportunity.

Sha Qianxing nodded, both of them thought of the abnormal behavior of the puppet old man last night. They were shocked by the disappearance of the old man's body, but forgot his abnormal behavior of attacking Shui Chen in the first place.

"You said, was the attack at that time related to that warning sound?"

Shui Chen was thinking, the old man had been ignoring him before, and after the warning sound, he suddenly turned around and attacked him.

Sha Qianxing was standing in front of Shuichen at that time, and he noticed more, the old man's eyes were red, as if the eye sockets were filled with blood, and more was about to drip.

"His eyes, black and white, are all red. Not sure if he is an exception, but you still have to be careful."

Although judging from the situation just now, the people of Qicheng are still not hostile to Shuichen, but they still have to be careful.

Shuichen nodded and said: "I'll go and have a look and I'll be back, you wait for me in the pawnshop pond."

The two separated here, and it was not suitable for anyone to take the rescued woman and child with them. They could simply be placed where they were, and there would be no danger.

Sha Qianxing went back to the pawnshop pond, but didn't go into the house, just sat and waited on the stone bench in the small park.

On the other side, Shuichen repeatedly wet his clothes in the public water area and rescued all the people in the nearby houses.

All of them were dragged out by Shui Chen, and those who were rescued still had their eyes tightly closed, showing no signs of waking up.Fortunately, the fire spread very slowly, so Shui Chen had time to rescue the person.

Shuichen has been busy for an hour, when he left this area and stepped into Leopard Turn, he saw several people standing in front of every burnt house, they should all be the owners of the house.Their eyes are still closed, their whole bodies are relaxed, their limbs are drooping, and their heads are drooping, somewhat similar to the puppets at night.

Shuichen approached and found that some people were still making slight snoring and teeth grinding sounds.

It seems that these people are still on their lunch break, Shui Chen thought to himself, the chip protection mode should work, taking them away from the fire zone.

He patted several people on the shoulders, but there was no response as expected.

After confirming that people outside the area can escape the danger, Shui Chen started to run towards Qin's house at high speed.

Before being busy saving people, Shui Chen didn't think so much in his heart, but now he suddenly remembered that Qin's father and mother's situation is different from others, they are equivalent to entering a dead state, and don't know if the chip can still work.And they are still locked in the room, I don't know if they can escape successfully.

When he ran to Tan's house, Shuichen was already out of breath.He saw Qin's father and mother lying on the ground in the garden, with no burns other than being stained with mud, while the Qin's family was burned down to nothing but a shelf.

Shuichen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the chip was still working.

Although Shuichen repelled it after knowing the true face of the chip, it has to be said that thanks to the presence of the chip this time, Qicheng was able to escape.

The Science Affairs Office should come to deal with the aftermath, thinking about it, Shui Chen left Qin's father and mother in place.Although he cared about them, it was impossible for him to bring them back to the pawnshop pond.

Now that he has arrived at the Happy Path, Shui Chen plans to go home to see if Father Shui and Mother Shui are safe and well.

The invisible clock reached three o'clock, and at this time, as if they had received a unified order, all the Qicheng people standing outside their houses suddenly opened their eyes, and then all had smiles on their faces, and looked at each other. Say hello and chat about topics of interest to you.

Some people quickly pulled out their cameras and snapped pictures of themselves with the burned house, claiming it was a once-in-a-millennium spectacle.Some people immediately wrote poems on the Internet about the ruins before them, and claimed to have vaguely felt the state of soul anxiety.Some people began to pick and choose among the ruins, and wrote the paper "On the Influence of Various Factors on the Path and State of Burning".

Everyone acted calmly as if it wasn't their own house that was burned, and they didn't care about why this happened.They are just thinking about how to make the most of this thing and add another achievement to their hobby career.

After all, the Scientific Affairs Office will take care of everything.

Shuichen has already rejected all chip-related services, so naturally she didn't see all this on the Internet.But when he went out, he found that all the faces were filled with bright smiles, as if they had encountered a great good thing, and their fingers frantically moved on the virtual panel.

This kind of collective carnival made him feel out of place. He couldn't help but grab the old aunt next door and asked, "Auntie, aren't you panicking?"

The old aunt looked at Shuichen affectionately, reached out and patted his head, and said, "It's Shuichen, why would you ask such a question? Those are not things we need to think about, we just need to be happy. "

The feeling of being touched is very gentle, but Shuichen feels a cold current from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet.

He didn't even have time to say hello, he left quickly and walked in the direction of Shui's house.Along the way, seeing everyone immersed in happiness, some people called Shui Chen to stop and join them.

It's not normal, it's very abnormal.

Shui Chen roared crazily in his heart.The people of Qicheng at night are controlled, so they are like puppets; the people of Qicheng during the day have their own consciousness, but their behavior is even more terrifying.They were confined to their own one-third of an acre of land, and they couldn't see anything else.

It was like there was a dragon lingering outside the door, and he was the only one who noticed it and swung his sword desperately, while the people inside the door were still engrossed in their dinner.

At this moment, Shuichen realized that the people of Qicheng were hopeless, and it would be pointless for him to face them again.

In order to restore his memory, to find out the truth about Tan Chen, and to save the people of Qicheng, he must go deep into the Science Affairs Office to discover all the secrets.

Thinking about it this way, Shui Chen no longer paid attention to the state of those people on the side of the road, and simply walked to Shui's house with a sullen head.

Unexpectedly, the house of the Shui family was in good condition, it was not burned at all, and the outer wall was as white as snow.Shuichen stared at it, feeling that this white was somewhat similar to the white of the lighthouse.

He didn't see Shui's father and Shui's mother in front of the door. He was about to enter the house to look for it, but found that all the entrances, such as doors and windows, were locked, and there was no movement when he opened the house authority.

Shui Chen could only knock on the door desperately, but no one responded for a long time.All the curtains were drawn, and he couldn't see what was going on inside the house.He put his ear against the door again, but he didn't hear anything.

Shui Dad and Shui Mom have always been very homely. Shui Dad still occasionally goes out to communicate with friends, but Shui Mom basically doesn’t go out. She only watches new dramas and shows on the Internet at home, and even communicates with her girlfriends through the interdomain net.

Shuichen began to worry, whether it was because of the special circumstances that Shui's house was not burned down, or because of his own reasons, the Science Affairs Office arrested Shui's father and mother.

At this time, I happened to see some fellow carpenters of Shui's father passing by, Shui Chen quickly grabbed one of them and asked, "Uncle Li, have you seen my father?"

Uncle Li shook his head, and said casually: "Maybe I went to find a colleague to communicate with. Let alone, I just happened to have an inspiration for a new work, so I have to hurry up and communicate with my colleagues to draw drawings."

After speaking, Uncle Li shook off Shui Chen's hand, and left with the others.

None of them were interested in the undamaged house in front of them, and they didn't care why everyone else's house was burned down, only Shui's house was still in good condition.

Shuichen asked a few people nearby again, all of them were indifferent, and only wanted to hurry up and do things related to their hobbies.

Without any clues, Shuichen could only go back to the pawnshop pond to find Sha Qianxing.He planned in his heart that when it got dark, he would go to Yixin Park with Sha Qianxing, and inquire about Shui's father and Shui's mother at the Science Affairs Office.

He walked faster and faster, and his face became more and more gloomy. When he reached the small garden in front of the pawnshop pond, he found that Sha Qianxing had been sitting under the cherry tree waiting for him.

Seeing Sha Qianxing, Shui Chen's face softened a little, and he greeted Sha Qianxing.

"Brother Chen, what's the matter? I've been looking at you with a gloomy face from all the way?"

Shuichen rubbed her hair and said irritably, "My parents are gone."
