This hairpin is almost one of Qiu Mujin's favorite "anomalous objects", which was discovered on the body of a 17-year-old girl half a century ago.

The girl had no friends, was often bullied by her peers, and had to face her alcoholic father when she returned home, she was cowardly, withdrawn, liked small and quiet spaces, and was a little nervous, and every night, she prayed to a "god" who she didn't even know what it was, but carved out in her head at random, hoping that she would no longer suffer from these torments.

One day, her wish came true, and she had a hairpin. As long as she wore the hairpin, the children stopped bullying her, her father stopped beating and scolding her, and the insults and mockery disappeared.

Then...... She felt like she was favored by the gods.

But gradually, she realized that something was wrong, not only could people not have those negative feelings about her, but even other emotions could not exert ...... on her. I can't notice her anymore, I can't see her, I can't think of her anymore.

She was shielded from all emotion.

Soon after, she was killed in a car accident...... It wasn't until the body lay on the street for 2 months that decaying maggots dug through her scalp and caused the hairpin to fall off that the body was noticed.

The field team involved in the accident at the time also discovered the anomaly of the card issuance.

As for how did this card appear? What exactly is the girl praying for? What kind of existence is that "god"......? It's been impossible to study for a long time.

Thankfully, that's the case with a lot of objects in the Foundation. So, we just need to figure out the anomalies of this hairpin.

Designation: C-077, titled "Lonely Headgear"

Its anomalous property is "Perception Shielding!" ”

Jealousy, anger, threats, concerns, and even memories...... In short, almost all emotions cannot be imposed on their carriers.

This "anomalous attribute" is very useful, it has saved Qiu Mujin many times in the years of confrontation with the Foundation, but it is only a C-class item after all, and it can indeed be shielded from some ordinary emotions.

However, at this moment, Qiu Mujian is facing "it"

A strange being that materialized from a higher dimension.

So, in just a few minutes, the hairpin on top of her head began to hiss, and the surface of the scarlet became cracked.

She was still standing in front of "Chen Xiao" at this moment, the other party was thinking, and "it" tongue was squirming in her mouth like a nervous one, as if it was being chewed repeatedly.

After about ten seconds of silence......

"Hey, hey, hey—as you wish."

"Chen Xiao" said with a rather graceful attitude, and with one hand too high and one foot retreating, he made a standard "bow" to Qiu Mujian.

But with its crazy and excited face at the moment, it looks particularly terrifying.

"Goodbye ......"

"Goodbye ......"

With two goodbyes that appeared almost simultaneously...... The scarlet hairpin on the top of Qiu Mujin's head was finally overwhelmed, and a truncated crack burst out in response, and the chaos in Chen Xiao's eyes ...... And it gradually dispersed. Instead, there was a wave of confusion.

He dangled one hand against the wall, and the other hand was in his hair, like a drunk. It's like a patient with the sequelae of some strange disease.

Anyway, at the end, he let out a few screams out of consciousness.

"Hey———— hey......"

And he fell to the ground

……

……

......

pain

It's like a river and a sea in my head

Chen Xiao opened his eyes with difficulty

In a wave of dizziness and almost retching, he habitually glanced at his surroundings.

Overhead, there are recessed lights, which fit seamlessly into the surrounding walls, without a single gap. The whole room is not huge, 20 square meters square, except for a few chairs, there are no other facilities around, and the chairs are not made of what material, but the whole body is cold tones. On the front left wall, there is a door, but it doesn't even have a doorknob, and it appears to be electronically controlled.

Well, this environment, this atmosphere, coupled with this miserable white light, clearly shows a strong Order Foundation style.

At this moment, he was lying on a single bed with a blanket on his body...... Judging from the touch of the whole body, I should be in a state of nakedness.

And the one under him is not so much a bed, it is more directly said that this is an iron plate, it is obviously not used for rest, it is placed in the center of the whole room, and the space around it is very convenient for people to walk back and forth,

"Forehead ......"

Chen Xiao almost didn't have to think about it, and made up a lot of speculations in his own brain, the most reliable of which was that this should be a place similar to the "observation room". And just now I may be placed here like an object, for some people around me to ...... "see" or "study".

Immediately, Chen Xiao sat up. He rubbed his face and rubbed the tips of his fingers, and found that there were slight folds and dandruff between his fingers, which were left by the evaporation of water stains after seeping into the pores.

"Hmm...... Looks like I've just been cleaned, an hour or two ago......" he thought.

Immediately afterwards, he touched his neck, looked at his wrist again, and then sat on the bed and "touched himself" all over his body, and finally, on the inside of the right elbow socket, he found a very small pinhole.

"And a tube of my blood? Or did you inject me with something weird? Chen Xiao muttered to himself, and at the same time felt a slight disgust in his heart for the Foundation's approach.

After that, Chen Xiao jumped out of bed, walked to the door, and pushed, sure enough, the line did not move, and there was no gap between the door and the wall, so it seemed that this kind of thing could not be done by opening the door.

So, Chen Xiao walked back to the bed, with his hands behind his back, bent his waist, and began to circle around the "iron plate bed", and quickly rummaged through his memories.

He remembered that in an underground parking lot, the middle school student with the iron cone, aka C-207, attacked him like a mad dog, after which he was exhausted...... Containment successful.

After that...... It seems that he was picked up by the Foundation's ambulance team...... After that, it seemed to be a corridor filled with shouting and laughter......

He shook his head.

These memories became more and more blurred, and finally entered the forbidden area of thinking.

Fortunately, Chen Xiao was already used to this feeling at this moment, so he didn't think about it anymore, because he couldn't think of anything.

So he split his legs......

Since he was not wearing pants at this time, his legs could be spread apart.

I saw him pinching his waist and squatting down, spreading his legs left and right.

Before and after the start

……

Shake it up

……

Well, that's a serious story

So this spicy-eyed picture didn't last long, with the sound of "dropping".

"Be careful about your behavior......"

There was a sound of anger and a strong smell of egg pain from around the walls.

Chen smiled and heard that this voice was "Mr. Zou".

He straightened up ...... "Wow! Are the monitors here all "in-the-wall"? Or is one of the walls here a hack similar to a "one-way mirror"? Are you looking at me on the other side of the wall at the moment? ”

Chen Xiao showed a hint of surprise, but then he pinched his chin as if no one was around and put on a serious "thinking" expression.

"I've basically walked through the previous three-story K City Research Center, this color palette, the style of the surveillance area, and the layout of this room...... I feel that the style is a little different, and the sound coming out of the speaker is so evenly balanced that it comes out from all angles, is it that the material of the wall can already be used as a medium for sound? This technology seems to have gone up to the next level. ”

Chen Xiao muttered in his heart.

At this time, Mr. Zou couldn't stand his naked behavior of pretending to be a "detective".

His voice came from the topic that he wanted to cry without tears.

"It's over, it's over, and all the shame is thrown to the "branch...... Whoever is that, hurry up and send him a set of clothes......"
