No one knows how those "people" came up.

After the bus drove onto the beltway, it did not stop midway and maintained a speed of 80 kilometers per hour.

But the number of people in the car has indeed increased.

Perhaps only Li Yinhang discovered this, or perhaps everyone in the carriage discovered it.

But no one dares to say it.

She lowered her whole body, and her nose was filled with the hot and stuffy smell of the enclosed space.

The air conditioning in the bus was set to 16 degrees Celsius, and the air conditioning outlet was right above her head.

The wind is strong and the sound can be heard.

And her fingers were clenched tightly, and the cold wind and hot sweat slowly flowed down her hair into the nape of her neck like reptiles.

...There are indeed too many people in the car.

This feeling lingers, but I can't tell exactly where there are more people.

Maybe he is watching her from somewhere behind him.

Maybe it was the man sitting two seats directly in front of her, with a small patch of hair exposed.

He may be turning his head 180 degrees silently and staring in his own direction.

…

Brainstorming is a human talent.

Starting a week ago, people's talent began to be greatly exercised.

At first, there were just one or two unusual disappearances.

For example, when friends who went out to play together came back with a bag of milk tea, there was no one in front of the cinema.

For another example, a middle-aged chemistry teacher with a big belly taught a drowsy class in a high school sophomore liberal arts class that was ranked at the bottom of the comprehensive ranking. The students below him fell asleep. Only the monitor took care of his face and faced him under the chemistry textbook.

Chinese exercises booklet written with great effort.

When the squad leader was startled by a crisp falling sound and raised his head again, there was only a fallen whiteboard pen spinning on the ground.

He stood up angrily and accused: "The teachers are all angry with you."

It only took one day and one night for the situation to worsen.

The housewife was watching dramas with her husband on the sofa when she noticed that the water in the kitchen kept making noises.

She was worried about the water bill, so she walked to the kitchen and found a stack of bowls filled with foam in the sink.

My daughter is missing.

Along with her old slippers that made a squeaky sound when she walked.

She walked back to the living room.

The living room was quiet.

The football game was playing on the TV, a new pack of cigarettes had just been unpacked, and the ashtray had been taken out from under the coffee table.

Under the warm ginger light, the family portrait of three people hanging in the living room casts only the bewildered reflection of the housewife.

The disappearance quickly escalated into a "missing incident."

The TV used a static color screen to repeatedly play notices, reminding citizens to stop unnecessary outdoor activities in the near future.

Because the data proves that even if you stay in a fixed place, you can't avoid the possibility of suddenly disappearing; but if you go out and run around, you won't be able to do it any faster.

The whole world seems to have a strange bug that cannot be repaired.

This is not just random speculation.

As early as five months ago, at six o'clock in the afternoon on February 5, millions of people saw a huge dialog box at the position of the sun under the background of clouds that were burned into red by fire clouds.

.

[sun.exe is not responding. If you continue to wait, the program may respond]

【Do you want to end this process?】

【End process cancel】

This dialog box disappears quickly.

The duration is one minute, not less than milliseconds.

During that time, this huge dialog box really caused a stir on the Internet.

The most popular theory is that there is a bug on the earth and aliens are performing system maintenance on the earth.

But the claim was quickly ridiculed.

The reason is that as an alien, I still use Windows 16 to maintain the system.

Dialog boxes appeared in various languages ​​over cities around the world.

On the huge rose plantation in Bulgaria.

The beautiful ocean-like starry sky in Tekapo, New Zealand.

Next to the window of an Australian plane carrying children to summer camp.

At the end of the turmoil, a foreign art group came forward and claimed that this was their performance art, which projected people's deep inner fears of reality onto the sun.

Although they did not come up with enough equipment to achieve this great artistic feat, by that time, everyone was already exhausted from discussing this topic.

This reason is enough for everyone to move on to the next hot social topic with peace of mind.

Later, some experts took tens of thousands of photos and compared them one by one.

Due to the time difference, the dialog box in some places happens to appear late at night.

But the position where the dialog box appeared still closely followed the orbit of the sun at that time.

But most ordinary people have long since lost interest in it, and will just pass it off with a word of praise for how awesome it is.

Anyway, there is no missing piece of meat, and life goes on as usual.

Who would have thought that five months later, the world would look like this.

This always makes people wonder why the familiar Windows 16 pop-up window appeared in the first place.

Is this really a human joke?

Is a certain force demonstrating?

Or, do you just want to give them a dangerous reminder that can be understood with human common sense?

Li Yinhang really couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Life matters.

It's better not to disappear than to disappear.

As a humble customer service employee at a bank, she lived in a dormitory provided by her employer with a new colleague who had only been on the job for less than a few days, choosing to live in isolation.

Because my colleague couldn't stand having his hair unwashed for three days, he went into the bathroom and never came back.

Li Yinhang didn't dare to go see it, fearing that he would follow in the same footsteps.

As a result, water leaked from the loose showerhead and fell on the tiles, making a dripping sound for two days.

At times like this, she was always very grateful for her laziness and liked to put snacks within reach of her lying on the bed with just a swipe.

She relied on snacks, pornographic videos and chargers to stay alive, trying her best to ignore the sound of water dripping on her nerves.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock.

Until the rescue team knocked on the door.

Because there were too many missing people, the organization department promptly changed its response strategy, calling in volunteers to form a rescue team on a voluntary basis, searching from house to house, and sending children, the elderly, and the disabled who were not missing, or who were unable to take care of themselves, to nearby temporary establishments.

We can provide centralized isolation in "safe cocoon rooms", or deliver food to people trapped at home, and assist people who are unwilling to leave to achieve self-isolation.

The volunteers are all uncles and aunts wearing red armbands.

Because data shows that there are currently no missing cases for children under 18 years old and elderly people over 60 years old.

Li Yinhang thought, extending one's head is also a knife, and shrinking one's head is also a knife.

If we stay here any longer, sooner or later we will run out of food.

She didn't want to live alone in an empty apartment with the sound of water dripping.

Even if she disappears, she hopes to disappear among the crowd.

So she got on this temporarily requisitioned two-door bus.

Before she got in the car, the man squatting like the driver casually mentioned: "No. 3."

When Li Yinhang got on the bus, he saw two other figures at the back.

A person was sleeping on the double-row chair in the second-to-last row.

The other one also covered his face with clothes, leaned back on the seat in the last row and fell asleep.

So she suppressed her desire to say hello, went to the fourth row from the bottom, and sat down by the window.

A signal jammer is installed on the car.

This is also one of the methods used by the authorities to control recent unexplained disappearances, which is to achieve high-intensity magnetic field interference in a small, confined space.

However, the function and coverage of the signal jammer are too limited.

To achieve comprehensive and effective magnetic field isolation, a "cocoon room" made of special materials is still necessary.

Therefore, the psychological comfort effect of this shielding device may be far greater than its actual effect.

Li Yinhang, who couldn't use his mobile phone, had to empty his mind and tried his best to block out the dripping sound that had been ringing in his head for several days.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock.

The bus only took three adults in this apartment complex.

The car stopped and went, some people got on and some left.

There were several children who were sent to a children's shelter.

Two volunteers, an old man and a young man, signed up and were sent to the site as volunteers.

There is a husband who gets in the car but regrets it temporarily and wants to wait for his wife to come back.

At first, when Li Yinhang saw the people getting on the bus, he would glance curiously and try to strike up a conversation.

But she soon grew tired.

The bus was never even a third full.

We were all strangers, so we were naturally wary, so we were all seated here and there. After we sat down, we had no intention of sitting around and chatting.

Li Yinhang quietly cosplayed with the tortoise at the bottom of the river without saying a word.

They passed a bridge across the river.

A car was crooked near the bridge pillar, with only its steel frame left burned. The smell of burnt sheepskin from the airbag penetrated through the window. The small half of the front hood that had been blown off hung on the bridge railing, and was burned.

The wind made a sharp sound of metal friction.

Squeak—squeak—

Li Yinhang didn't want to think about the cause of the car accident.

She turned her gaze to the inside of the bus, trying to count how many people were on the bus now.

But the next second, the bus rushed into the tunnel.

The overwhelming darkness came oncoming.

When the white sky light came back on, Li Yinhang felt that there was a strange misalignment in his retina.

...There seems to be something more in the car than before.

But the sense of reality replaced this fleeting visual afterimage at an extremely fast speed.

She didn't even have time to compare what was wrong.

But her sixth sense told her that there must be something more.

Just now, there weren't so many people in the car.

There is no such deadly silence.

Various conjectures ran through her mind.

The fear that piled up one after another made Li Yinhang more and more afraid to raise his head.

She clasped her fingers nervously, not daring to be the first to make a sound.

Unexpectedly, her finger joints made a crisp sound due to excessive force.

——Crack.

This sound created a strange echo in the too-silent carriage.

For a moment, the muscles in Li Yinhang's throat tightened.

Fortunately, she is not living alone.

Behind Li Yinhang, a man said in a controlled and trembling voice: "Master driver, can you stop the car? I'm a little uncomfortable..."

The driver didn't respond.

...I don’t know whether I should say it was unexpected or expected.

After the dead silence was broken, the man just now became more courageous and walked towards the cab to check the situation.

As soon as he crossed Li Yinhang's seat, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, blocking the man's way.

The nervous Li Yinhang was startled.

...She didn't even know when someone was sitting right in front of her.

The man lowered his head and took a quick look and found that the person blocking him had silver hair.

The black hair tie is tied with a beautiful scorpion braid halfway on the collarbone, which contrasts sharply with the black choker with a silver chain hanging on the slender neck.

Faced with such a beautiful body, the man suddenly became more courageous.

He said with relief: "Beauty, don't worry, I'll go check on the situation."

Then, Li Yinhang heard the man's perfectly clear and clear male voice: "Don't move yet."

...He acquiesced to the title "beauty" with great calmness.

Before the man could recover from his sluggishness, large swathes of colorful balloons suddenly poured out from the cab where a person should be sitting.

Big purple, big blue, big red and big green.

The color saturation hurts the eyes.

The balloons fell to the ground one after another, and a girl sitting in the front row screamed in fright and stepped on the edge of her seat.

Then, from hundreds of colorful balloons, a silly-headed, silly-brained mushroom with a pair of round, short hands emerged.

A red mushroom with white spots on the cap.

It looks no different from "Super Mario" hiding in bricks and eating mushrooms that will grow bigger.

Mushroom shook the umbrella cover in an exaggerated manner, and straightened the edge of the umbrella in a serious manner as if he were wearing a hat.

Because of its short arms and legs, it looks like a naive pet.

But no one who saw this scene that subverted the worldview could laugh.

The mushroom jumped forward awkwardly twice, opened its short hands,

"Welcome everyone to the world of "Gravity"! Bika is honored to be your guide! Welcome to the trial level——"

Li Yinhang can no longer move.

The scene in front of her was beyond the scope of her twenty-four years of life.

She didn't think about why the name "Gravity" sounded so familiar for the moment, but subconsciously observed other people's reactions.

Especially the silver-haired young man who just stopped the man from approaching the driver in time.

...He was actually not looking at the most eye-catching mushroom.

His eyes quickly swept across the entire carriage, counting the people as quickly as possible.

Li Yinhang was busy taking pictures of cats and tigers, and followed him to do some counting.

Not counting mushrooms, there are eleven in total.

But Li Yinhang did not dare to use the word "human" to describe these creatures in the car.

Before Li Yinhang could sink his thoughts further, he saw a half-figure standing up slowly on the seat in the first row from the front.

...There is actually another one?

When he saw that person, the first word that came to Li Yinhang's mind was "out of place."

The young man was wearing an unfashionable half-length black lapel trench coat, a two-piece suit. It was impossible to tell whether he had a tall and straight figure. We could only tell from the curve of his neck that he had a good temperament.

His skin is very white, as white as the daylight that broke through the tunnel just now. His medium-length hair is slightly curled and just reaches his shoulders, giving him a dignified, beautiful and solemn look.

The key is that he is the closest to the mushroom in the car and sits almost on the same level as it.

But he didn't look afraid, and he even held an apple firmly in his hand.

...And he actually seems to be studying this mushroom seriously.

Li Yinhang observed carefully for a moment and discovered something was wrong again.

The way he looked at the mushroom was distracted and confused.

...This person seems to be just innocent and hasn't woken up.

Before Li Yinhang could make any more useless judgments, a sudden cracking sound behind her made her shrink back.

The man in the second-to-last row picked up the red emergency escape hammer installed by the window at some point and smashed the window violently.

The moment the glass shattered, winds of 80 kilometers per hour poured in.

Before Li Yinhang had time to calculate the hope of jumping out of the car and surviving in this situation, the man couldn't wait to reach out and hold on to the window frame.

It is indeed human nature to flee from such a strange situation.

However, after half of his head stuck out of the window, he made no further move.

No one knows the inhuman pain he suffered at that moment.

Everyone saw him sitting back down, his face ashen, and his hands scratching his face that was starting to squirm, as if it was filled with a nest of fluttering insects waiting to fly.

Bang!

After the muffled sound of material exploding, in full view of everyone, a shiny colorful mushroom unfolded in a very layered manner on his neck.

The snow-white liquid dripping down his shoulders looked like mushroom secretions.

The sharp girl's voice almost touched everyone's scalps alive.

"Please listen to the precautions for trial levels——"
