Chapter 13: The Battle for Memory III

"These code names are not rooms...... It's people! “

"It could also be an animal! Or maybe it's an item! Whatever! In short, it's something very special, like the little guy who loves to listen to nursery rhymes and breathes fire as the cleaner just said! As soon as Chen Xiao thought of this, he immediately confirmed this idea, because this guess had appeared in his mind countless times.

Although it will be forgotten again, it still leaves a little trace more or less.

"So, what am I going to be dealing with that I have to come every day, and have to erase my memory after each time?"

Chen Xiao thought that he had come to the front of a door. The door reads: "D-391".

"Stand still!" A guard said, and walked to the touch screen next to the door, "Didi Didi~" pressed the password, and took out a magnetic card and swiped it.

After that, the door opened.

"Alright, let's go in!" Another guard standing behind Chen Xiao said, and directly pushed him in!

—————

With the sound of the door closing, Chen Xiao was already standing in the room labeled "D-391".

Somewhat to his surprise, there was nothing strange here that the madman couldn't understand. Instead, it has been transformed into a very ordinary house, similar to the old residential house, with bookcases, reclining chairs, refrigerators, stoves, and other household facilities.

In the middle of this room is a set of wooden tables and chairs, and at this time there is a pot of tea on the table, and an old man sits next to it.

He's ...... Read the newspaper!

Over 60 years old, obese, very thin hair, farsightedness, rosacea, long-term smoking, sloppy, meat-loving, bad liver, diabetes, haven't seen sunlight in the past week.

Chen Xiao knew this just by looking at it, so the corners of his eyebrows furrowed even deeper, because what he was in front of him was an ordinary old man, just like all the old men who walked in the park in the early morning. There is nothing special about it at all!

But it was such an extremely ordinary person, but it made Chen Xiao feel slightly nervous.

It was the remnants of the memory that told him that the person in front of him was dangerous......

What kind of person is Chen Xiao, for example, he can play the death revolver (the game in which the revolver pulls out five bullets and one person is at a time) with you.

So what will this person do to Chen Xiao to make him feel more afraid than death?

At this time, the old man also finished reading the newspaper, and he glanced at Chen Xiao, who was still standing at the door.

"Coming?" He said

From these two words, it was very relaxed, as if the family had come back from buying vegetables early in the morning, but Chen Xiao got a very important message for him, that is, this old man...... It's communicative.

"Hmm." He said yes lightly.

The old man put down the newspaper, glanced at Chen Xiao, and pointed to the seat across the table with his eyes, which meant to say, "Hurry up and sit down!" You're welcome! ”

Chen Xiao didn't move, and the sense of crisis in his heart made him extra cautious. At this moment, he had carefully observed his surroundings. It turned out that this place was really just as it appeared on the surface, except for a camera in the corner of the wall that was a little out of place, it was a very ordinary room.

Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't move, the uncle couldn't help but put on a very helpless expression.

"Hey! You're like that every day, and then you've got to ask a bunch of questions! Okay, just ask! The uncle said, and then added: "That monitor only has images, and doesn't listen to sounds, as long as you don't hit me, you can treat him as if he doesn't exist!" ”

Chen Xiao was stunned, he could still ask questions, and it seems that this old man has talked a lot with me!

"What do I usually ask?" Chen Xiao said.

The uncle took a sip of tea and replied, "It's just asking where is this?" Who am I? What do I do to you or something! Speaking of this, he also muttered quietly: "It's really annoying to have to ask once a day." ”

Chen Xiao was not stunned this time, but surprised!

Can you ask any of these questions? Don't you even need a figure of speech? It's not like words! And these are all very critical questions, will you answer me? He was a little complicated in his heart, and he had a feeling that he had worked hard to come to the big boss at the end of the pass, and then the boss committed suicide directly.

However, from this sentence, Chen Xiao got not only good news, but also bad news.

The good news is that the old man doesn't seem to be resistant to answering his own questions, and he can ask them very directly, and it doesn't seem like he can't ask this without answering that.

The bad news is that in the midst of such blatant questions and answers, you should know a lot of information, but you don't leave much for yourself the next day...... In other words, is it useless to know this?

Anyway, at least I can know the ins and outs of things now.

So Chen Xiao said lightly: "Let's hear it?" ”

The uncle sat up and sat down, just like he wanted to tell the child a story.

"First of all, I don't know where this place is, but people here are all over the world looking for strange things or creatures, like me, and then lock them up."

Chen Xiao didn't make any expression, just listened quietly.

"As for me, about 10 years ago, I felt that I was always hungry, and it was useless to keep eating."

As he spoke, he patted his big belly, his face full of remorse.

"Then I realized that I didn't need food...... It's memory! ”

When Chen Xiao heard this, he put on an expression of "so it was like this".

And he didn't show great surprise when he heard that the old man needed to eat "memory", maybe because he already knew the answer before, but he just forgot it.

Co-authoring is not that he must remember clearly what he has seen or done, but that he is brought out for dinner every day.

Thinking of this, he didn't forget to spit out: "Anyway, what kind of strange things have been caught by this broken organization." It's the little Lori who is teleporting again, and it's the old man who eats memories. Can these settings be so casual? ”

Spit and complain, Chen Xiao still has to ask another key question.

"That ......"

"No way!" As soon as he pronounced a syllable, the old man directly refused.

"Hmm...... Looks like I've asked this question many times! Chen Xiao thought.

Sure enough, the uncle opened his mouth and explained: "Every time I eat memories, it will be detected, and I don't know where there will be a machine, what to call repeatedly" D-class abnormal reaction, D-class abnormal reaction! "So there's no way you're going to get away with it! Also, I can't make that machine react without touching your memory. And personally, your memories taste good! ”

"Class-D anomalous reaction...... These words rang out at Miko's time. Looks like this organization has a machine that can track strange things! Chen Xiao thought.

At the same time, he was still silently complaining in his heart: "I'll go!" It turns out that memory can taste like it......"

He put on a pose of "Okay, okay, you cow X, you are amazing!" Expression. He really wanted to talk to the old man about what memories were like, but now was not the time.

“...... In other words, when I come here, the memories must be eaten by you! Can't you just eat it all and leave some for me? Chen Xiao asked.

"I can't control it, either I don't eat it, or it's all of it!" The old man explained helplessly.

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows, obviously, he meant to say, "Old fellow, play tricks, right!" You want to lie to me! ”

When the uncle saw it, he naturally knew what he meant, after all, he had done the same thing many times over and over again.

"Hey, it's a hassle every time I explain this!" The uncle had an impatient and helpless expression on his face again.

"Memory has a sequence, so you have to eat it in order, and after eating what you just eat, you can eat the previous one, and your memory is a little different, about five days ago, there was a memory that was very confusing, and I couldn't touch it.

Since I just ate them, but I couldn't read them, I don't know what happened at the time, but in short, that memory was like a big rock, blocking out all the memories that came before that! ”

Chen Xiao thought about it, after Mr. Zou entered the orphanage that night, he did have a period of thinking that became very confused, but now that he thinks about it, he can't remember it clearly.

"Was I mentally ill then?" Chen Xiao thought, but soon, he stopped paying attention to this, as if there was a force that didn't make Chen Xiao think too much about this issue.

"So that means that after ordinary people come to you, they will be directly eaten as babies and toddlers at one time, right, does that mean that you can't eat enough of the baby's memory at all, because they don't have any memory at all. And I'm a long-term meal ticket! ”

Uncle took a sip of tea and nodded: "Well, in fact, you already know this the day after you came to me." ”

Chen Xiao frowned, thinking, "It turns out that I have always been standing still!" ”

So the big question now is, how can I get out of this room and keep my memories......

Chen Xiao thought for a while and came up with an answer.

No way!

Can you talk to this old man and ask him to convince the guards not to bring me tomorrow...... No, it's not clear to tell people I'm doing something.

There must be some way.

Well......

Well......

Chen Xiao thought for a while.

"I'm rubbing~ I really can't help it!" He felt a sense of weakness in his heart.

At this time, the old man spoke: "Little brother, it's almost over, you have been thinking about it for a long time every day before, but ...... The guards will come in after a long time, they don't care about the mess, they just send you in to complete the mission, so they will do it when the time comes. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to Chen Xiao's arm: "A few days ago, you had to disbelieve in evil, and as a result, you were beaten ......."

Chen Xiao thought about the bruises on his arm: "It turned out that I was beaten to death here!" ”

Well, the matter has come to this, it seems that there is really nothing to do, Chen Xiao felt powerless in his heart, since in this room, it is definitely impossible for him to preserve his memory, so he can only think of a way for the rest of the time.

Chen Xiao looked at the mark on his arm.

"Hmm...... My memory has gradually developed a habit because of thinking about one thing repeatedly, that is, my current plan is to delay time? When I'm used to it, can I wake up every morning and remember it right away? It's all unknown, and even if I can use it to get rid of the pain of losing my memory, judging by the nature of this organization, it's not much easier to escape than it is to swim out of the toilet! Can you only wait for an opportunity......"

Chen Xiao thought as he sat down opposite the old man and scratched "D391" on his arm with his fingernails.

So now, he has one more question, and it is also the one he is most curious about at the moment.

He looked at the other party suspiciously, and his memory traces were telling him that he would regret asking the following question, but Chen Xiao still asked it.

"Uh...... Speaking of which, how do you eat memory? ”

The old man scratched his cheeks a little embarrassedly: "You asked this question every day before, and every time I told you, you regretted it." Ay...... It's okay, anyway, after I finish eating, you'll forget. ”

"So, how the hell do you always eat?" Chen Xiao had a very bad premonition.

The old man glanced at Chen Xiao like a child who had done something wrong, and then immediately lowered his head and whispered a word.

"Huh~"

The corners of Chen Xiao's mouth twitched: "Huh??" ”

The old man amplified his voice slightly.

"I'm going to use it."

Chen Xiao had a strong expression of egg pain on his face.

"What's the matter?"

The old man was still embarrassed, but he always came.

I saw him stretch his neck towards Chen Xiao, and then ...... opened his mouth.

And it opens wider and wider, like a snake, the corners of its mouth reach its neck, and the whole mouth is big enough to swallow one...... The head!

Chen Xiao looked at the saliva sticking to his mouth, the yellow teeth full of cigarette stains, and the wriggling tongue, and there was a little tea powder next to the tongue.

At this moment, Chen Xiao finally knew where the panicked feeling in his heart came from when he just entered the house

"Hey....... You don't really need it, do you? ”

As soon as the words fell, the big mouth "snorted" and took Chen Xiao's entire head into it.

Then, just like drinking soy milk through a straw, "cooing" began to "smack".

......
