If it's just a "vanished" memory, then it's understandable. The problem is that there is another factor that causes this, and that is "erasure".

What kind of power is this?

It can drive powerful infectants, so that they are not afraid of life and death to directly snipe and directly snipe the target who leaks secrets.

Even a tough person like Qi Yuanchang had to be avoided.

Along the way from the makeshift camp, hundreds of survivors were encountered along the way. None of them have memories of their families.

What if the entire city of survivors was like that?

The scope continues to expand, and other cities, Chengdu, Xichang, Leshan, Panzhihua, Kunming...... and even ...... Worldwide.

Liu Tianming really didn't dare to think about it.

He had even more terrible thoughts. It's a dark hell that makes you feel breathless at the slightest thought.

What happened to us?

What is the reason for all this?

The bodies hugging each other don't feel cold, it's just that the brains are becoming stiff, stiffened by fear.

In the distance, a building can be seen at the end of the road in the distance.

Liu Tianming found an empty room sheltered from the wind and settled Zheng Xiaoyue.

"Stay here, don't go anywhere. I'll be back soon. ”

The building in front is the storage point of the relics marked by Song Jiahao in his last words.

This is not the first time something like this has happened.

At the moment when Liu Tianming was about to turn around, Zheng Xiaoyue reached out and grabbed his clothes.

Her eyes revealed strong fear and melancholy at the same time, full of fear and reluctance: "Will I forget you?" Am I going to suddenly lose all my memories of you? ”

This kind of thing is not impossible.

Even all memories of my parents are gone, what else can't happen?

Liu Tianming hugged Zheng Xiaoyue hard, took out a small and delicate pen recorder from his underwear pocket, and stuffed it into her palm.

This is the harvest from the dusty shop windows when I passed by an electronic video mall a few hours ago.

"Record everything you want to say to me."

Liu Tianming took out another one from his pocket, shook it in front of Zheng Xiaoyue's eyes, and said with a smile: "I will do the same thing." Of course, that's not enough. Didn't we get a "Shot" camera? I'll take pictures when I get back. You keep mine, I'll keep yours. Even if the memory disappears, you can remember these things just by seeing them. ”

Zheng Xiaoyue's face had an unprecedentedly solemn expression: "Everything in this world is fake. Only you are the only truth. ”

Liu Tianming took off his gloves and gently stroked her soft and cold cheeks: "We will never be separated, and we will never forget each other." ”

……

Half an hour later, Liu Tianming arrived at the building.

No signals of the presence of infected organisms were found nearby, and the mutant cells were quiet. They seem to be asleep, which also means safety.

Here's a new group of tenants.

As soon as Liu Tianming walked into the open space in front of the building, four strong men armed with sticks and knives immediately rushed out of the room on the first floor. The windows on the second floor facing this side were open, and more than a dozen people stood inside and watched, their eyes full of cold gazes.

"Who are you?"

The strong man at the head was wrapped in a thick cotton cloth and looked very gypsy-like. He demonstratively shook the thick stick full of nails, looked at the assault rifle in Liu Tianming's hand with great fear, and shouted in a low voice not to be outdone: "You are on the wrong path." This is private territory. Take advantage of the opportunity to turn back now, and get out of here quickly. ”

Liu Tianming was in no mood to talk nonsense with him, and he didn't want to kill people at such a time. He leveled the muzzle of the gun and said coldly, "I'll get something." Rest assured! It won't take too much time. ”

This sentence had an indescribable special effect on the four strong men.

"Take something? What to take? ”

"Impossible! We searched the place and couldn't find any food. ”

"What, this kid used to work here?"

Liu Tianming didn't want to waste time, so he directly pointed a gun at these people, turned sideways, and ran up the stairs quickly.

Death threats are more effective than any verbal deterrence. Several men looked at each other, and the strong man led by him kept staring at the staircase where Liu Tianming's figure disappeared, and after nearly half a minute, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Keep up." Anyway, let's see what the hell this guy wants to do? ”

……

Walking into the room marked with his last words, Liu Tianming saw the computer on the desk.

It is a utility room with a small area and a variety of useless wastes taking up most of the space. Because of this, this place is not occupied by survivors. The stray footprints on the floor between the dust indicate that they had been here, probably not finding anything useful, so they closed the door and left everything as it was.

Everything was so familiar: plug in the battery, start the computer, the gray screen quickly lit up, and a dialog box popped up with the problem.

"What's my name?"

Seeing this, Liu Tianming was slightly distracted. Because of surprise, there is also a bit of surprise.

Who is this referring to? Or the one who set up the program?

After thinking about it for a moment, he typed the words "Song Jiahao" on the keyboard.

The dialog box on the computer screen disappears, and a new row of text appears: the wall on the south side of the room.

Then, there is a password made up of numbers.

Several strong men with weapons in their hands ran up the stairs and appeared at the door of the room, Liu Tianming had already smashed the white plaster on the surface of the wall that was used as a disguise, moved the safe out of the hole in the wall, and opened the box.

An indescribable strong remorse suddenly began to ferment and spread in the bodies of several strong men.

"Nima's, it turns out that he really hid something here!"

"What the hell is this kid coming from? The box was also so hidden that we never found it. ”

"Did he hide it beforehand? Or did he know there was something here? ”

The strong man at the head had a gloomy and uncertain face, and he stood there with a fierce look in his eyes.

He saw Liu Tianming bending over and taking out two rows of objects from the safe that resembled needles and water in the hospital. There is also a thumb-sized sheet with a metallic sheen reflected on the surface. Finally, Liu Tianming took out a thin book from the bottom of the safe.

There aren't many things, that's all.

Still no infected body has appeared. They apparently do not exist at every relic placement point. Those that have been encountered before may have been accidental, or accidental.

Liu Tianming doesn't plan to stay here for long. Now that the relics have been obtained, he wants to leave this place as soon as possible and return to Zheng Xiaoyue.

A few strong men armed with sticks stopped at the door, without the slightest intention of getting out of the way.

Liu Tianming raised the gun in his hand.

There is no need to waste your tongue at this time.

"Wait! Wait a minute! ”

The strong man at the head was well aware of the meaning of such a move. He suppressed his anger, raised his left hand, stretched out his five fingers, made a soothing and stable movement, and shouted at Liu Tianming very unhappily: "No matter who you are, no matter what you do, I think you should give us an explanation." ”

The gun in Liu Tianming's hand did not move its position, but just looked at him with an indifferent and calm gaze.

His silence gave the strong man a lot of courage and enough motivation to continue: "We have lived here for a long time. From the time of the virus outbreak, this place has belonged to us. Well...... Everything has to be reasonable, you rush in and take the things here without saying anything. What's going on? Anyway, you have to tell me, what did you take with you? ”

Liu Tianming's handsome face showed a strange sneer: "This matter has nothing to do with you. Get out of the way. ”

Before the strong man could speak, a guy behind him immediately jumped up and shouted, "I see, it's a safe, and the contents must be very valuable." Hand it over, this is our territory. At least half of us. ”

The strong man was obviously very unhappy that his lines were snatched away by others, but these words did indicate his intentions. With a gloomy face, he nodded at Liu Tianming: "You heard it too." We are not unreasonable people. Now there are the rules now, and everyone has to obey the rules. ”

Propriety?

Liu Tianming lowered the muzzle of the gun slightly.

After two seconds, he simply put the assault rifle away and carried it behind his back.

The sudden change stunned several people standing at the door. They watched Liu Tianming take a few steps forward, and instinctively clenched the weapons in their hands.

"I'd like to ask you a few questions."

Liu Tianming's face was so calm that he couldn't see the slightest murderous intent: "As long as you say an answer that satisfies me, all the things here can be left to you." ”

The strong man at the head suddenly had a fine light in his eyes: "Really? ”

Liu Tianming smiled faintly, noncommittal, and asked directly: "Do you have any family?" Where are your parents? ”

The first question is no longer necessary.

Family?

Parents?

Two questions can actually be counted as one.

Everyone heard Liu Tianming's question, and the expressions on their faces suddenly became very exciting. First confused, then weird, then confused, then stunned...... Confusion and confusion swirled in their eyes, and their brains seemed to have lost the ability to think, and there were many words wandering, but they couldn't say a word.

"Bang!"

A strong man standing in the corridor outside suddenly let go of his fingers, and the processed thick stick fell to the ground from a high place with a clear sound.

Liu Tianming sighed secretly in his heart, stopped speaking, and squeezed out directly from the stunned leader of the strong man, and walked towards the exit of the stairs.

These people behaved like all the survivors they met along the way, without any difference.

This brief shock won't last long. It should be that the question touches the sealed part of the mental memory, that is, the part that disappears, and then leads to a few seconds of blank thinking.

It wasn't until Liu Tianming walked down the stairs and came to the open space outside the building that several people finally reacted.
