Chapter 29: The Choice of the Present
"Yes, that cat should have been human like us earlier.
But now, it's just a cat with some memory remaining.
Because their memories are lost at a very rapid rate over time.
I have already confirmed this with Lu Zhiqiang.
So he was afraid that he would forget completely, so he wanted to desperately remind Ji Chengcheng to know, lest Ji Chengcheng would throw him away, and then one day he would follow in his footsteps. ”
"Damn, this TM is too terrifying!"
When Yi Shaodong heard this, he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
"It's not so much horror as despair. Because it's a vicious circle.
When the cat owner is frightened by the cat, then discards the cat, thinking that he will get better, but gradually becomes a cat.
Then he learned the truth, and then desperately looked for the owner who adopted him, and then in the process, his memory began to lose little by little.
By the time the person who adopted him became no longer normal and abandoned it, there was little memory left of it.
Maybe it's no different from a discarded, stray cat roaming outside. ”
The atmosphere in the room became more and more depressing as Qin Ming's topic deepened, like a memorial service with a heavy atmosphere.
When everyone heard this, no one was talking, and they couldn't help but imagine in their minds the vicious circle that Qin Ming had just talked about.
It's actually the same as those horror movies related to time and space.
The victim may initially hear a strange noise at home, and then experience a series of horrific events, but it is not until the end that he realizes that the strange noises and strange noises come from the future at all, and they are the ones that came from before he died.
But by the time we got to know that, it was too late.
However, Qin Ming's words are obviously not finished yet, after all, the matter is only half of the story.
Ji Chengcheng coincidentally adopted a cursed cat, but not long after, she left because of a business trip and left the cat by Lu Zhiqiang's side.
Lu Zhiqiang unfortunately became an adopter, but because of disgust in his heart, he probably wanted to abandon the cat before Ji Chengcheng left, and quickly took action.
So this also accelerated the spread of the virus after that, until he also became a cat.
And the next person to take over is Feng Yuan.
And then what happened, you should all know very well, the reason why he became like this is because he made us get rid of the cat.
This is how this incident is known to have developed to the present day.
Sneaky beings don't exist, they do, but they are not tangible.
As for where the source is, we can't find out at all, at least in the remaining days, we can't do it. Not to mention, in my speculation, the source is likely long gone and meaningless.
This is like the first virus infected, even if he is controlled and eliminated, those who are infected by him are equivalent to inheriting him. ”
"Then are we going to just kill those cursed cats and cursed people, and we'll be fine?"
Xue Kai pursed his lips with some dry lips and said with a panicked expression.
Xue Kai's words startled Fu Guangliang and Yi Shaodong, obviously they didn't expect that these murderous words would come out of Xue Kai's mouth so easily.
He was just surprised, but no one objected or questioned him.
After all, it's a matter of their lives.
It is the muzzle of the academy that puts the muzzle on your head and forces you to shoot at others, and you are merciful, then you will be the one who dies.
"You may be overly optimistic."
Qin Ming shook his head with a wry smile on his face at this time, and then said another thing that made everyone's faces look like ashes:
"If we fall under this curse ourselves, will we kill ourselves?"
At this moment, the room was like a vacuum cut off from all sounds, as if it couldn't even hear the outside world.
"We ...... Cursed too? Also...... Will you turn into a cat too?
What a joke! We don't have cats, we don't discard cats, we won't...... Isn't that Qin Ming? ”
Xue Kai said emotionally at the end, and he could already hear his cries because of the collapse.
"Feng Yuan is here now, we are here now, we won't let him go, is this an adoption, or can it be said to be a short-term adoption?
Conversely, can we get him to leave?
And in the afternoon, will the cat that Yi Shaodong send to the basement be counted on our heads?
Does anyone dare to really say that this possibility is nothing? ”
Qin Ming had this kind of thought, not just when he told everyone about this incident, it suddenly appeared, but as early as Ji Chengcheng's house, he had already had this terrible suspicion.
Now the fact that cats are spreading curses is 100% confirmed.
If you start from things alone, then the way to solve the incident is like Xue Kai said.
Wipe out anyone infected by the curse, as well as anything that can spread the curse.
Provided that they are not infected.
Otherwise, even if they dispose of those cats and dispose of Ji Chengcheng, the incident will not be stopped.
Of course, this was only his guess, and he didn't say that he was 100% sure that they must have been infected by the curse.
I just think it's very likely.
So high that they are not even allowed to take chances.
The crowd fell into a dead silence again.
Because just like Qin Ming said, no one dares to say that this possibility really does not exist.
I don't know if I was listening to the discussion of Qin Ming and the others, but even Feng Yuan was very quiet at this time.
Yes, he's listening, listening to what choices these people will ultimately make.
"So what are we going to do? We can't give up and wait for death.
Isn't that possible, maybe we don't carry it that way?
After all, we don't have the idea of adopting a cat in our hearts, do we?
It should be nothing, right? ”
"This is not the only problem we have.
There is one thing that everyone should understand in advance.
That's four days before we have our time.
And during those four days, even if we did wipe out all the people infected by the curse, we still can't know for sure if the event was completed.
Assuming we do fall under the curse, as you have seen before, spells are not effective against this change.
The speed of change is even more astonishing, and even if we give up and rush back to the academy desperately, it may be too late.
The premise is that the academy can help us solve the problems on our bodies.
That's what we really need to face, what can happen.
So what we need to make now is not to bet on whether we are infected by the curse, but to choose, whether we persist or give up.
After all, we should maximize the time we have to return to the academy and deal with any problems we may have. ”
