[Science Fiction] Escape from Paint City

Qin's father and Qin's mother observed secretly, Shuichen's face showed no abnormality, it seemed that he had no memory of what happened last night.

Yesterday, when Shui Chen came to the door, Qin's father conveyed his strong resentment towards him and his longing for Qin Xing to the Science Affairs Office through the chip. At the same time that Qin's mother sensed the existence of outsiders, the Science Affairs Office urgently sent out the memory and identity Sent by the new inhabitants of the city, hoping to capture and destroy the outsider.

According to the analysis of the magnetic field sent back by Qin Ma, this time the outsider has the function of stealth. The Science Affairs Office can only use the crowd tactics to try to trap the foreign virus out in a closed space with high-density human body code, but it is a pity that it escaped .

Sha Qianxing also realized that now that he was expelled, he would never be able to come in again, and guessed that they would not cause any actual harm to Shuichen, so he ran away resolutely, planning to wait for Shuichen to leave Tan's house before waiting for an opportunity to approach.

Unexpectedly, the people sent by the Science Affairs Office not only erased and replaced Shuichen's memory, but also injected part of Qin Chen's personality and behavioral factors, making him dependent on Qin's father and mother.In the eyes of Qin's father and mother, it was like the child's soul still living in Shui Chen's body, no wonder they were so kind to Shui Chen.

At the same time, the Science Affairs Office tampered with the world settings, put more emotional factors into all the residents, and transformed everything on the Internet into offline activities to ensure the bonding between Shuichen and Qicheng.

Shuichen didn't realize it, he followed Tan's mother like a newborn chick clinging to his mother.Whatever mother Qin said, he would do what he said.

"Then let's pack up quickly. This is a serious event, and formal attire is required."

Mother Tan's face was full of smiles, brimming with happiness all the time, after Father Tan took a closer look at Shui Chen, he took Shui Chen to the sink and squeezed toothpaste on his toothbrush.

Shuichen raised his hand slowly, took the toothbrush in a very unskilled way, and brushed his teeth clumsily.

This time the memory was cleaned and changed too much, and the after-effects were still lingering, which made Shuichen feel like a machine that had been left unused for a long time, and had to adapt slowly until all instincts returned to normal.

The three of them tidied up for a while, and when it was just after nine o'clock when they went out, Shui Chen's movements were basically back to normal.

As soon as he went out, the neighbors greeted Qin's father and mother.

"This is Shuichen, the young man is really clever."

"This child is in your house again. He is really filial to you, just like his own son."

"Hey, at first glance, it looks really similar to Tan Ling. Don't mention it, Tan Ling will probably look like this when he grows up."

"It's not bad for one Chenchen and one Chenchen."

"The little Allegro played by Shuichen last time was really good, next time I will perform for the big guys."

The people around surrounded Qin's father, Qin's mother and Shui Chen. All of them were dressed in formal suits and walked towards the east of the city together.

--split line--

When they arrived at Heiyanzi, about [-] people had already gathered at the border of the barrier. Father Shui and Mother Shui stood at the edge, and when they saw Father Qin and Mother Shui Chen coming, they nodded their heads to say hello, but did not call for water. Chen stood over.From this point of view, Shuichen and Qin's father and mother are more like a family.

Everyone stood in a row facing the fog, and none of the 500 people made a sound.Qin's father and Qin's mother took Shui Chen to the very center of the line.

The leader in the front row was a hunched old lady with a taller crutch in her hand.She was pushing a multi-storey trolley covered with white lilies. When she passed by, everyone picked up a lily and held it tightly with both hands in front of her chest.

"Today, we gathered here to verify that the black mist is still unbreakable. It is the barrier created by the Science Affairs Office that protects us and prevents us from being engulfed by darkness."

After distributing the lilies, the old lady stood in the front row again.She is very old, but her words are full of breath, and she bites every word very hard, so that everyone present can hear clearly without loudspeaker.

"In addition, last night the Science Affairs Office discovered outsiders. Two of our compatriots were unfortunately killed. Let us mourn for them. Today, they will prove with their own bodies how stupid those who were lured by outsiders and tried to step into the black mist The Science Affairs Office will remember, and all Qicheng people will remember their contributions."

Hearing the outsider, Shui Chen's ears twitched, but he followed the crowd and became united.

He thought that he must be a bad person who would harm innocent residents. It would be great if the Science Affairs Office caught him sooner.

The scent of lilies was too strong, which caused Shuichen to sneeze uncontrollably. Tan's mother hurriedly held him down, reminding him to hold back and not make a sound on such occasions.

Shuichen sniffled, and quietly took the lily away. He thought that he would prefer the elegant smell of grass. There was such a smell in his memory. What kind of grass is it?

At the moment when Shuichen was distracted, the old lady had finished reading the eulogy.She stepped aside to get out of the way, and two cold-faced men in blue and white striped clothes carried out two corpses, one of which was even a 12-year-old girl.

Shui Chen couldn't help frowning, this outsider is too cruel, even children are not spared.

The cold-faced man carried the corpse onto the platform next to the barrier. They stood in the center and could be seen by everyone looking up.

The two corpses had become stiff, and the cold-faced man leaned sideways and raised the corpses' feet outward, slowly sending the corpses out.

The moment the foot was stretched out, all the surrounding black mist rushed in, and after eating the foot, it collided with the barrier unwillingly, and black streaks streaked across the barrier.

The cold-faced man took the body back and showed everyone that the feet were gone.Then send the legs in, retract them, and keep going up.The corpse becomes only half of the body, only above the chest cavity, only above the neck, only the head, and finally only the eyes and the top of the head.

The cold-faced man paused after taking back the body, and walked down the platform holding a small half of his head in his hands, showing it up close in front of everyone.

Arriving in front of Shui Chen, Shui Chen felt that he stayed for a long time this time, as if the cold-faced man wanted to put his head on his face.Shui Chen looked at the corpse's closed eyes, felt a nausea, couldn't help clutching his chest, trying to swallow the nausea in his throat.

After the display time was over, the cold-faced man threw the remaining part high into the mist, and the mist flew into the air, swallowing it up in an instant.

The leading old lady walked up to the platform one by one, and hit the ground twice with her cane, attracting the attention of the people in ecstasy.

"Everyone has also seen that when they are engulfed in the fog, there is nothing left. Outsiders are the most deceptive. They will mislead everyone, saying that stepping into the fog can reach the outside world. If you believe it, there is only one dead end. If anyone sees an outsider, they must report it to the Science Affairs Office as soon as possible."

The old lady's eyes suddenly became sharp, piercing through the crowd as if she was looking at Shui Chen, and these words seemed to be addressed to Shui Chen alone.

Shui Chen shrinks back in fear, grabs Tan Ma's clothes, trying to hide behind her.

After finishing the concluding remarks, the old lady looked away, coughed lightly, waved her hand, and said, "Okay, everyone leave."

As if they had been ordered to lift the ban, the crowd suddenly became noisy again.

"Okay, it's okay, it's okay, let's go back and make something delicious for you at noon."

Mother Tan patted Shuichen on the back reassuringly, and was about to take him home.

The crowd began to collectively move towards the Xingfu Avenue. At this moment, several smoke/fog/bombs rolled in from different directions, instantly billowing thick smoke, and nothing could be seen within the sight range.

The old man in the lead shouted: "Everyone, don't move around, move closer to the middle, this must be a trick of outsiders! Everyone get close together."

Everyone moved slowly towards the center. At this moment, Shuichen suddenly felt a stone-like hard object hitting his right shoulder. His right arm went numb, and he let go of Tan Ma's clothes.

A burst of grassy fragrance hits, this smell is very familiar, it reminds people of a warm hug.

Shuichen's expression was in a trance for a while, and the chip node behind the ear flashed a blue light very quickly, and no one noticed it.

Before the consciousness became clear, Shui Chen lowered his body to pick up the stone reflexively, and it seemed to be wrapped with a piece of paper.

He quietly put the stone-wrapped paper into his trouser pocket. At this time, the crowd was already huddled side by side. Tan Ma fumbled and grabbed Shui Chen's arm and pulled him up.

"Chenchen, what happened just now?"

"It's okay... my feet are a little weak."

Shui Chen answered vaguely, instinctively not wanting to mention that piece of paper to Tan Ma.

After a while, there was no movement around, the smoke gradually dissipated, and people's vision became clear again.

Tan's mother looked at Shui Chen nervously, groped his face with her hands, and muttered: "It's okay, it's okay."

The others also looked at Shuichen with concern, but it seemed that they didn't care about their own safety.

After a while, everyone returned to the happy path together.

Father Qin went around the house first, making sure that all the doors, windows and airtight passages were in good condition, and then opened the door a small crack, letting Mother Qin and Shuichen go in first, and then he waved the wooden stick leaning against the door in front of him. , before quickly flashing through the door.

After entering the room, Shuichen excused that he had some inspiration and wanted to go back to the room to write a song, Mother Tan readily agreed and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Shuichen returned to the room, locked the door, turned around and saw the violin hanging on the wall, took it off and sat on the bed in a daze.

He took out the paper wrapped with rocks in his trouser pocket and put it on the bed, but he didn't open it for a long time, but started to pluck the strings with the violin in his arms.

The sound of the violin, which should have been melodious, became muffled by plucking the strings, as if it had been trapped in a jar.

After plucking a song, Shuichen stared blankly at his left hand, there were indeed thick calluses on the fingertips, which should have been formed by pressing the strings for a long time.He touched the left side of his neck again, and there was also a callus, which should have been formed by the violin.

After touching the violin, half of the soul seems to settle down.Shui Chen knew who the person who threw the stone was, it was the outsider.But the other party doesn't know me, so why did he target me?And what is that familiar smell?

Why do I always feel so weird?Shui Chen thought.

At this time, the alarm clock that was tuned to "Candy Fairy Dance" suddenly rang again, and Shui Chen felt a burst of irritability in his heart. He jumped out of bed suddenly, opened the window and threw the alarm clock out.

The sound of the music gradually decreases, and finally disappears.

Shui Chen turned around and sat back on the bed again, looking at the stone in front of her, hesitating between throwing it away and opening it.In the end, the obsession and curiosity to dig out familiar things won out. He opened the crumpled paper and saw the following:

"At two o'clock in the afternoon, see you at Tangzi No. 37, the pawn shop. I have everything you want to know.

——your student Sha Qianxing"

The author has something to say: Emphasize that the deaths of the two Qicheng people are not all caused by Qianxing, and Shou absolutely did not kill young children. I emphasize here

In this chapter, Brother Chen seems a bit soft. This is actually the expression of Qin Chen’s personality factor. Soon Brother Chen will restore his previous personality. Don’t panic, little cuties.

Thanks to the little cuties who are still reading the text~ Today I fulfilled my promise and posted it before 3 o'clock~
