My childhood was spent in an orphanage.

As far back as I can remember, my circle of friends consisted of three people.

One is me, one is Yuying, and one is someone - who is it? I don't remember, I forgot her appearance and name.

That night, I dreamed again of the three of us playing together in the grass.

This time I want to see the forgotten man clearly.

A white dress, a brisk figure.

She's like a fairy, always out of my sight.

I couldn't see her until I woke up.

The soft morning light shone on my face, and I woke up with a hint of disappointment.

I don't want to think about that just yet.

Because today there is something more important -

Holiday!

In the past few months, I have been plagued by all kinds of things in the team, basically working around the clock, without a holiday off.

And today, August 2nd, it is very rare to usher in the first vacation since joining the team!

Although it was only one day, I was already very satisfied, putting aside all kinds of tedious training and documents, putting on black protective clothing, and stepping on the ground outside for a long time.

The exit to our base is built on the outskirts of the E-23 zone.

- Sure enough, there was a lot of fog outside.

Standing in the fog, the light under the street lamp is very weak, and the surrounding area is dark, and the road 500 meters ahead is completely unclear, and you must turn on the lights on the protective clothing when walking.

Maybe the fog didn't invade the ground, or maybe the base was well protected, so there was no such phenomenon in the base, and it could still be brightly illuminated by the light.

The first time I stepped on the ground after staying at the base for a long time, I felt a much greater sense of contrast than in the video.

"Is this still a place I know......" I surveyed as I walked into town.

According to expert research, fog is composed of countless viruses, as long as a person takes off the protective clothing, any part of the body comes into contact with the fog, and he will be infected with toxins on the spot and suffer from "mineral blood disease".

The fog viruses are spherical blue viruses that have never been found on Earth and several other planetary bases before, and scientists speculate that they came from extragalactic galaxies, naming them "blue viruses".

After the human body is infected, there will be a series of abnormal symptoms such as fever, dry cough, fatigue, irritability, etc., and at the same time, the blood will turn blue, and blue mineral crystals will grow on all parts of the body.

If left untreated, the patient's condition can quickly worsen and become life-threatening – the patient's body is completely reduced to a hedron statue.

Therefore, it is called "mineratreemia".

The period that begins at the beginning of the year is known as the "fog period".

In the early days of the fog epidemic, people were unprepared for this, resulting in untold deaths. This poisonous fog has engulfed the whole world, and the dilemma created has not been resolved until now.

Just standing in this hazy fog made me feel terrified and uneasy.

I didn't see a single person on the street for a long time.

Looking through the night vision devices of the protective suit, you can see that the streets of the city are rarely filled with pedestrians and vehicles.

Except for necessary travel, everyone will not go out of the house.

A home with a disinfection device is certainly safer than a foggy outside. Even when you go out, wear protective clothing to avoid being infected by the virus.

This is a normal phenomenon after the advent of the "fog epidemic period".

Rarely, I saw a man running in the direction of me.

The man was holding a large basket of food, and he ran very quickly, and accidentally fell down, and several cans of food in the basket rolled out.

Out of kindness, I helped him pick them up one by one, but before I could return them to him, I heard this man scold: "Bastard! Who told you to touch my stuff? Come back! ”

He got up, grabbed the can, put it in the basket, and hurried away again.

was suddenly scolded for no reason, kind-hearted-I obviously wanted to help him.

I don't want to care, trying to adjust my mentality.

- As soon as I saw the food, I suddenly wanted to go to the supermarket.

Then I went to the supermarket and I immediately understood why the man was so grumpy.

Supermarket shelves are almost empty, and somewhere you can barely find a food item at a ridiculously high price — at least ten times the normal price.

Even so, there are many people who are desperately fighting for this little bit of material, and some people even fight so hard that the guards can't stop them.

- There is a shortage of materials......

But I still paid for a small gacha.

It used to be my favorite toy, and it is the same now.

Walking out of the supermarket, I felt a little depressed, but I couldn't help it.

In a trance, the brain was dizzy.

When I came back to my senses, I was standing in a forest.

- Again.

I always have abnormal phenomena of vertigo and visual hallucinations when my whole body is relaxed. This is a disease that has continued from childhood to adulthood, and I have taken a lot of drugs and received professional treatment, but I have not been cured.

I had to adapt.

At this time, just stand still, and the illusion will naturally disappear.

The trees of the forest grow densely, their vigorous branches stretching and intertwining, covering the sky tightly.

The misty white mist flows in the forest, like a light veil, elegant and graceful. Ancient trees, weeds, bushes, gravel, are all shrouded in it, creating a dark and silent atmosphere.

I vaguely felt a strange aura behind me, and turned to look.

A giant dozens of meters tall knelt down on one knee behind me.

The giant's body is similar to that of a human, and its posture is similar to that of a human female.

The hazy mist of water reflects her appearance as tall and mysterious.

The milky, glowing, oval eyes were looking down at me.

I don't know why, the first time I looked up at such a behemoth up close, and it was the first time I saw her, I didn't feel scared, but I felt a sense of intimacy, like seeing myself in the mirror.

"Hello." I greeted her tenderly.

She nodded slightly, and pointed her left hand behind me.

I turned to look over there – it was an overgrown path.

Was she telling me to go that way?

I didn't think much of it and walked straight in this direction.

Walking into the grass, I suddenly stepped on the ground under my feet.

Before he could react, he fell into an icy water.

The body temperature of the whole body plummets and turns into ice cubes.

The frozen body condensed into an ice pick as slender as a needle.

Immediately after that, it exploded and shattered.

The brain went blank.

When I came back to my senses, I was sitting in the back seat of an electric car.

In front of me - in the driver's seat sat a beautiful middle-aged woman driving.

Looking at her back, it looks a little familiar.

It's noisy around. It seems to be a city road, and now it is jammed with traffic.

The electric car was parked in the middle of a traffic jam.

There was a lot of fog and light rain in the sky.

At this time, I was not wearing a protective suit, and I had a mobile phone in my hand.

Turn on your phone and take a look at the time: November 27, 2011.

These words made me stunned and shocked, and I thought of something unbelievable.

Shocked, he looked at the man in the driver's seat and called out blankly: "Mom......"

I could clearly hear my voice trembling.

The man heard it and turned his head.

But before I could see her face, a truck suddenly slid on my left side and hit our car.

I lost consciousness on the spot.

In the sense of impact, the brain went blank again.

When he woke up the next second, he found himself lying in the middle of the road filled with poisonous fog, his right arm was numb, and he was wearing a protective suit.

Next to him lay an unlicensed motorcycle with obvious wear and tear, and a man in an unconscious state.

I figured out right away: I'd come back from the illusion - and I was in a car accident!

But he didn't suffer any serious injuries and was able to get up.

I pushed the unconscious man next to me, and he was hurt, probably very badly.

Although there were a few pedestrians passing by, no one was willing to help.

I didn't have time to review what had just happened in the illusion, so I hurriedly dragged the car and people to the sidewalk and called the emergency number.

At the same time, he silently accused in his heart that this person actually drove an unlicensed car, and the recorder of the motorcycle showed that he drove at the highest speed - it was really fatal!

I feared that the man's injuries were particularly serious - I couldn't see the wounds in my hazmat suit - and the ambulance arrived late, so I carried him on my back and tried to knock on the door of the nearest house - to borrow some medical supplies from the owner of the house for first aid.

Rang the doorbell of several houses in a row and there was no response.

In an emergency, I suddenly saw a family not far away whose door was not closed.

- Nothing to ......?

There were some cracks in the windows of the house.

I didn't care about that and immediately broke in.

- Please forgive me for my reckless behavior, and I will apologize later!

When I went inside, I quickly closed the door and pressed the sterilizer next to the gate to disinfect it so that the virus from outside would not spread in.

At this time, this disinfection device is installed on the door of every house.

The room was very dark, and there were a lot of smashed objects on the floor, as well as sharp weapons such as blades, and it was lifeless.

- When I first came in, I heard movement in the house, and the owner of the house must be inside.

I beckoned inside, but there was no response.

I decided to rummage through the lobby to find the medical supplies in the cupboard, and the compensation was a matter for later.

Finally, a medical kit was pulled out.

Untie the wounded man's protective suit and bandage him.

The wounded man was a teenager who looked a little rebellious. It is reasonable that such a person would drive an unlicensed car...... Bar...... Belch?

Thankfully, his injuries weren't serious.

Soon after, the boy woke up.

He was inexplicably hostile to my rescue, cursed me a few words, and limped out of the house.

"Ah......?"

I didn't understand, but I was shocked.

Turning to something else—inside the house, I smelled a very fishy smell from the moment I entered the door.

I followed the scent, and the smell came from a room.
