The press conference was planned to be held in a large meeting room of the First Publishing House. The original time was 20:[-] am, but due to fans chasing and blocking, Bai Tansheng was late for more than [-] minutes. Except for the security personnel sent by the publishing house , Gu Jianrong was worried, and followed him.

When Bai Tan arrived, the conference room was already full of people. Xu Shubai led him through another internal passage, and finally stopped in front of a brown-red wooden door, and said leisurely: "Last time, I said I wanted to ask you a question. Questions, now is the time to ask for answers."

When he looked back, his black eyes were as deep as a pool, shining brightly, "Bai Tan, have you fallen in love with me?"

Bai Tan's first reaction was to look at Gu Jianrong. The young man was silently leaning against the wall, with a calm expression on his face, acting calmly to the extreme, as if he had expected Xu Shubai to say this a long time ago, but he was looking more at Bai Tan some deep meaning.

This inexplicable feeling of guilty conscience...

Bai Tan rubbed his nose, felt embarrassed for a while, and started blowing Xu Shubai's rainbow fart wisely, and said: "Senior brother, you are too sudden to ask, you are so outstanding, handsome and talented, people who like you will definitely like you." Standing on three streets, I..."

Gu Jianrong's expression changed, he stared at Bai Tan intently, his eyes were complicated and difficult to discern, with anticipation and jealousy at the same time, he couldn't help clenching his fists, even breathing lightly.

"So, do you like me very much too?" Xu Shubai stopped Bai Tan from eloquent, and smiled to extract the key points.

"This..." Bai Tan was in a dilemma. Because of Gu Jianrong's presence, he was embarrassed to say nothing, so that Xu Shubai would not be able to get off the stage, so he said sincerely: "Brother, I admit that I have a good impression of you, but I haven't liked that kind of thing yet." degree."

Xu Shubai looked at Gu Jianrong calmly, exchanged some information quietly, and smiled as usual: "I see, you go in first."

The security guards escorted Bai Tan into the meeting room, and there was an instant commotion inside. Numerous media's long guns and short cannons were already ready. Seeing the boss appeared, they pressed the shutter one after another, and the flashes blared. Drill forward.

The gnats are boiling, and their power cannot be underestimated. The excitement in the conference room can be felt through a wall. Gu Jianrong suddenly said: "It's almost time."

Xu Shubai sighed with emotion: "Yeah, it's almost over, everything is coming to an end." There are more and more awakened people, and the situation is out of control.

The two sides were silent for a moment, and Xu Shubai said unwillingly: "Do you think he will be willing to stay?"

Gu Jianrong smiled, and kindly reminded Xu Shubai: "You have already failed, I still have a chance."

Bai Tan has a special magical power. Anyone and everything in this world will unconsciously serve him, compromise for him, and can't help but be attracted to him. Just the cartoons drawn by himself can already make the whole Fangcheng fall into a trap. Crazy, after the real person showed up, this deceptive charm was immediately magnified ten times, a hundred times.

As a result, it was visible to the naked eye that the people in the conference room had crazy eyes and fiery expressions, and everyone respectfully and cautiously paid their respects to Bai Tan, as if the beautiful young man in front of him was their most precious and beloved person, No amount of profanity is allowed.

Bai Tan was originally explaining the necessity of stopping the publication of "The Truth" according to the plan made in advance, but slowly, Bai Tan couldn't continue, and looked at the surrounding crowd in fear.

Everyone, whether it's the fans who came here for the fame, the journalists in charge of the interview, or the staff of the First Publishing House, they all looked out of their minds and their souls were out of their bodies. They threw away the things in their hands and surrounded them layer by layer. , densely packed, crowded, and at a glance, their expressions and movements are uniform, surprisingly consistent, like robots controlled by the same program, but their eyes are extraordinarily bright and energetic, as if they have been hungry for three days and three nights. The wolf who finally caught the prey did not give in, and the green light shone coldly.

Yaoshou, what's the situation?

No matter how big his heart was, Bai Tan trembled in fright at this abnormal scene. He saw a gap and ran away, followed by hundreds of people who followed him with all their strength, chasing after him.

the end of the world?Zombie siege?

Bai Tan ran into the corridor, holding Gu Jianrong and Xu Shubai one by one in each hand, and ran away. The two hesitated for a while, but finally cooperated with Bai Tan's behavior.

The three of them ran for a few streets and hid in a small cafe out of breath. Bai Tan huddled behind the cashier and stared at the glass wall warily. The sound of chaotic footsteps, back and forth, one after another.

Judging from this situation, it will be a matter of time before the three of Bai Tan are discovered.

Bai Tan told Xu Shubai and the others: "You two must stay in hiding, those people outside don't know what's going on, they're just like getting mad, if you're caught, who knows if you'll be torn apart and eaten alive."

Xu Shubai and Gu Jianrong: "..."

Seeing the weird expressions of the two, Bai Tan thought they didn't believe it, so he shook his head helplessly. Time was running out and he didn't have time to waste words. Bai Tan took out his mobile phone and called Feng Siwei, asking the police to send someone to protect their safety.

Who knows, Feng Siwei paused for a few seconds after listening, and comforted him: "Stay where you are, don't move around, I'll be there right away, before that, I hope you watch a video first."

It's this time, what more bikes are needed!Bai Tan roared silently in his heart, but before he could refute, Feng Siwei hung up the phone resolutely, and a video was also received on Bai Tan's phone.

The three of them were trapped in this small cafe, and there was nothing else to do left and right. While paying close attention to the movement outside the window, Bai Tan clicked on the video to watch. I don’t know who took the video, it was blurry. , the light is dim, and the angle of view is also tilted downward. It looks casual, and the picture quality is particularly bad. A section of the iron carriage and a few pairs of legs wearing various clothes can be vaguely discerned.

Bai Tan opened his eyes wide, looked at it for a while, and a guess gradually emerged in his mind, this seemed to be the subway on Line [-], and there was the man sitting in the corner, chomping on potato chips, ignoring the slogans posted on the wall of the car The fat man was wearing a dark gray plaid shirt, beige loose cropped pants, and holding a volume of "The Truth" in one hand. He was clearly the headless male corpse!

Wait, there is another person at the edge of the screen!

The man was wearing a navy blue hooded long trench coat, covering his whole body airtightly. He turned slightly sideways, with his back to the camera. Following the shaking of the photographer's hands, he appeared and disappeared in the video. He couldn't see his face clearly at all. You can see him with his legs bent, with a computer on his legs, typing and editing some information quickly with his left hand, and curling up his index and middle fingers in his right hand unnaturally.

The video only lasted for a few minutes, and soon went dark, but Bai Tan felt as if he had been shocked by an electric shock. He held the phone for a long time and couldn't recover, so as not to make mistakes, he clicked on the video again, dragged the progress bar to the end, and saved One frame captured the picture of the man's right hand, and I watched it several times, and the more I looked at it, the more frightened I was.

Gu Jianrong and Xu Shubai squatted not far away, with relaxed limbs and a leisurely demeanor, not as panicked as Bai Tan was, but in contrast, Bai Tan who didn't dare to breathe, shrank into a ball in a cowardly manner was simply a frightened bird.

Because Bai Tan suddenly turned around, the two of them had no time to hide it. At this moment, it was clearly the most genuine reaction. The funny thing is, the fox's tail had already been exposed, and he even changed his face and put on an anxious and worried expression, squeezing out a fake smile , pretending to ask: "God, what should we do?"

That performance is really perfunctory, not distracting at all.

Bai Tan didn't even notice, he lowered his right hand to his leg, pinched himself quietly, used the pain to quickly focus his distracted attention, and managed to maintain his composure: "You guys stay here, I'll check if the doors and windows are locked. "

Bai Tan had been to this coffee shop before, and he remembered that there was a small door at the back, which was hidden by decorative flowers and trees, so it was difficult for ordinary people to notice.

Under the cover of the cash register, Bai Tan leaned over and walked back lightly. Gu Jianrong and Xu Shubai must have a secret to hide from him. There was a kind of tacit understanding in their eyes when they looked at each other. Waiting for a long-anticipated ending, strange and dangerous, Bai Tan made up his mind to sneak away as soon as possible.

As they passed by, Xu Shubai and Gu Jianrong suddenly stretched out their hands at the same time and clamped Bai Tan firmly. Their faces with different styles but each had their own victories slowly faded into smiles, time seemed to be pulled by an invisible hand After a long time, the corners of the mouths of the two were hooked up a little bit, but the eyebrows and eyes were lowered, their movements were strangely synchronized, and they asked in unison, "Where do you want to escape?"

For a moment, Bai Tan suddenly had a terrifying intuition, are Xu Shubai and Gu Jianrong really flesh and blood people?

Seeing that Bai Tan was stunned, Xu Shubai and Gu Jianrong smiled sweetly, and whispered softly and tenderly: "Isn't it good to stay by my side? Why do you want to leave? It's really not good."

"Ah——" Bai Tan collapsed, knowing each other for so long, why didn't he realize that Xu Shubai and Gu Jianrong are both sick and delicate, it's shocking to death.

Rabbits bite people when they are in a hurry. People have unlimited potential in a critical situation. Bai Tan doesn't know where he got the strength to break free from the two of them and run forward with his head sullen. A group of people in Shangwu, all of them looked crazy and their eyes were blurred. When they saw Bai Tan's figure, they rushed forward screaming as if they had been injected with powerful chicken blood.

"Heaven wants to kill me!" Bai Tan wanted to cry without tears, his desire to survive was completely aroused, he turned around and ran wildly, and a group of people chased after him desperately.What is puzzling is that there are many familiar faces in the crowd, who usually look normal, but now they all look like they have lost their minds and can't control themselves.

In the distance, a tall, strong and powerful man appeared on the corner of the street. Bai Tan's eyes lit up, as if seeing a savior, he rushed towards him crying, and said incoherently: "Help, help, what are they trying to do?" Well..."

Feng Siwei stood there in a daze, let Bai Tan pull a few times, but still stood still, Bai Tan was anxious: "Run!"

Feng Siwei was against the light, his handsome face was hidden in the shadow, dark and black, and asked in a strange tone: "Bai Tan, do you like me? Do you like this world?"

These words were like a cold and sharp dagger, piercing through the haze condensed in his mind and bringing a glimmer of light. Bai Tan hugged his aching head and shouted: "It's this problem again, you guys?" What the hell happened?!"

The chasing crowd didn't know when they stopped. Everyone kept the same expressions and movements, like a tentative frame, silent and lifeless.

Gu Jianrong and Xu Shubai came from behind, stood on both sides of Bai Tan, and stood up against Feng Siwei, trapping Bai Tan in it.

At the same time, Bai Tan heard the long-lost system prompt again.

"Host, congratulations on completing the mission!"

"Complete the task, have I already completed the task?" Bai Tan asked in his heart in disbelief.

The system said: "Yes, you have become the most popular and famous cartoonist. You only need to answer the questions correctly and you can leave this world."

Bai Tan wondered: "No, that's not right, don't you want to become the most famous cartoonist in the country? My works have always been sold only in Fangcheng, and never went to other cities..."

other cities?Are there other cities?

The strong sense of disobedience came again. Fangcheng faced the sea on one side and the mountain on the other side. It was shrouded in thick fog all year round, and it was warm like spring all year round. The internal transportation was developed and convenient, but it had no connection with the outside world at all, and no one came in. , and no one goes out...

No, it's not that it's warm like spring all year round, but that Fangcheng will always have only one season of spring.

The facial features of Feng Siwei, Gu Jianrong, and Xu Shubai gradually faded and became blank. They stretched out their hands at the same time and said in unison: "Isn't it good to stay here? Take a closer look at this world, everything is according to your preferences It was built. You like the bright spring, and here is spring every day. You want to be recognized and respected by everyone, no problem, no matter what you say or do, they will support you unconditionally. Look back at these people, It will always be pity, love, worship, and respect, and will never show the slightest bit of dissatisfaction, boredom, hatred, or hatred towards you. Your words are sacred decrees, teachings, golden rules that cannot be slandered, and cannot be questioned! Isn't that good?"

Bai Tan's headache was about to explode, and he murmured in a dazed way: "It turns out to be like this...it turned out to be like this..."

The whole city came to a standstill, all sounds disappeared in an instant, the sky and the earth were empty, only the white sandalwood existed, and a strong sense of absurdity hit him like an overwhelming feeling, almost suffocating him.

What is the truth of this world?

Bai Tan clutched the corner of his clothes tightly, his chest heaved violently, and his breathing became more and more rapid. He bit the corner of his lips, trying to stay awake, and warned himself over and over again: "Don't get lost, don't sink, absolutely don't..."

The field of vision became blurred, and everyone's figures overlapped, and at a glance, everyone was the same.

"Heh..." Bai Tan sneered, paused each word, and said through gritted teeth: "The truth of this world is a dream, a false, grotesque, and unreal dream."
