A huge fireball rose at the other end of the city, and the huge explosion echoed in the cave city like a bell. Hao Ren looked at Yzaks in shock: "Old Wang, what are you doing?"
"Make a big news," Yzaks turned his head and pointed at the TV on the wall expressionlessly, "and wait and see if there will be reports. ※%"
Nangong Wudi and Elsa stared at the fire at the far end of the city, and they exclaimed in unison for a long time. Elsa sighed softly: "We didn't dare to make such a big noise back then."
Nothing happened for ten minutes after the explosion. It wasn't until the fireball dissipated and the buildings near the explosion point were completely swallowed up by the blazing and unquenchable demonic flames that everyone heard sirens and some flashes in the distance.
The oval-shaped aircraft with warning lights rushed towards the fire scene along the steel girders of the city's roof. Hao Ren stood on the balcony and looked far into the distance. With his extraordinary eyesight, he could see the situation in the explosion area: many machines and equipment were busy.
The fire was put out on the spot, and the roads near the fire area were blocked. Some robots were directing traffic at the intersection, and passing vehicles chose to take detours under the command of those robots. Hao Ren's attention quickly shifted away from the fire.
Focusing on the vehicles that were taking detours - he suddenly thought that since these vehicles were operating under the control of a huge unmanned system, the coordination between them should be seamless. In this case, why do we need robots to direct at intersections?
transportation?
Is it just a bad idea of the designer of this city (or should it be called the "watcher outside the glass house")? In order to simulate the appearance of human society here?
"We can take action tomorrow," Yzaks came from behind and said beside Hao Ren. "We'll wait a day and see what changes will happen in the news tomorrow. I want to confirm something."
This place has plenty of rooms, and they can be easily tidied up comfortably. Hao Ren and his party spent an uneasy first night in this weird city: starting from the second half of the night, there were always various things going on.
Police sirens came from other neighborhoods, and Yzaks' fireball caused more noise than expected. Early the next morning, Lily complained that she had not slept well last night, but to be honest, Hao Ren was quite skeptical.
: Anyone around me can suffer from insomnia, but this husky who lacks heart and lungs...can her brain structure support such a complex symptom as insomnia?
The group of people was killing time in the Nangong couple's house while paying attention to news reports that might appear at any time, and soon they got what they wanted.
The morning news began to play on the TV. A woman wearing a beige short coat and a professional smile appeared on the screen. She read the script with a slightly nervous look: "...an urgent news. Last night in a neighborhood of 'Shenhe Station'
A large-scale mysterious explosion occurred. Four residential buildings were completely destroyed at the moment of the explosion, and more than ten other buildings were burned by the fire after the explosion. The total damaged area reached the entire block. The fire department has been working all night to put out the fire, and it has now stopped.
Spread, but the fire within the scope of the fire has not subsided..."
Lily patted Yzaks hard on the back: "Big man, you made quite a noise."
Yzaks raised his chin calmly: "Don't worry, pay attention to see if there is anything wrong."
At this time, the announcer on the TV finished reading the script, and suddenly the camera panned to the side: "...We have urgently contacted the chief of the Fire Safety Department of Shenhe Station, Mr. Wayne Rohm. Now please introduce Mr. Wayne Rohm to us.
Research progress on the explosion."
A broadcast window appeared on the screen. In the broadcast window stood a tall, bald man: "...The cause of the explosion has not yet been investigated clearly. The last picture returned by the on-site monitoring equipment showed that the explosion suddenly appeared out of thin air, and a huge
The fireball first formed in the air. Then it destroyed the signal at the scene..."
Half a day after this Wayne Rom balabala, the camera changed again, and this time an old man with gray hair and dark skin appeared. The voice-over introduced: "Loken, the commander of Shenhe Station, responded to the explosion..."
Everyone in front of the TV stared, stunned and speechless.
Yzaks turned around: "I guess the city we are staying in now is called 'Deep River Station'."
Hao Ren pointed at the figures appearing on the screen and looked at Nangong and his wife: "These are the commanders and officials of Shenhe Station... Why did the mayor appear again in this empty city?"
Nangong Wudi opened his mouth and waved his hands: "We have never heard of these people existing."
At this time, there was a sudden clicking sound outside the door. Everyone fell silent immediately. Lily tiptoed to open the door. After a while, she returned to the living room carrying a newspaper that still exuded the fragrance of ink: "Today's newspaper... the front page
The headline is the news about the explosion in the neighborhood. There is also a photo of the city's fire safety department chief, and the text below says that these big shots have come to the scene to guide the disaster relief..."
Nangong Sanba reached out to take the newspaper and gently twisted the paper: "It was just printed."
Everyone looked at the newspapers and TVs in front of them with horrified expressions, looking at the faces on them, depicting such a normal world - Hao Ren suddenly realized that he should revise his initial guess.
"'They' are simulating the scene in which human society still exists," Yzaks reached out and turned off the slightly noisy TV. "'They' are forcibly pretending that the world is still alive."
Lily blinked: "Who are 'them'?"
"Then we have to find the mastermind behind the production of these programs and newspapers," Hao Ren took a deep breath, "Get ready, let's go out and make some noise."
The group of people had already cooperated tacitly, and everyone was ready to take action after Hao Ren made the decision. They walked towards the gate, Nangong Wuyue walked at the end, turned around and greeted his parents: "Dad, Mom, come on, this should
This is your last day in this city."
Nangong and his wife looked at each other and smiled at the same time. Nangong Wudi shouted to everyone who had walked outside the door: "Just a moment, let me put on all the outfits I had back then!"
Nangong and his wife have lived in this city for a hundred years. They had the opportunity to discover many secrets - and they should also be vaguely aware of some truths about the world around them. But they are different from Hao Ren.
They had no way to leave, and the environment on the surface of the planet was unbearable. In comparison, this weird and even fake city was their only reliable and stable refuge, so they never thought of demolishing anything here.
But now, a group of guys who don't have to worry about their way out of the shelter have arrived, and this false glass house will soon be unveiled.
Hao Ren led the way, leading his small team out of the residential area and walking along the avenue towards the end of the city. The lights on the city dome were lighting up one by one, simulating the arrival of the morning sun, and more and more people
Small robots also appear on the streets like citizens going to work in the morning. They continue to wipe street lights, clean railings, clean up non-existent street garbage, and check every empty trash can on the roadside, making everything look lively.
Everyone was walking on the main road in the city. There were neatly arranged billboards on both sides of the road. All the screens suddenly brightened up at the same time, and began to play a bustling and peaceful time. The laughter in the speakers and the happy smiles on the monitor seemed to make this little kid...
Surrounded by small teams.
The billboards on the roadside shouted: "...the shelter provides you and your family with the most meticulous safety services. We have dozens of kilometers of rock and steel protection. You will be far away from the coldness and vacuum of the surface world.
Living in a safe and comfortable new paradise..."
A taxi loudly announced around everyone: "...Who is willing to leave their stable home and go to an unpredictable place for adventure? Give up these young and frivolous naive ideas. You can take this car and go to the city center.
Spend a whole day in the newly built leisure square, and you will realize that it is more comfortable than any other place in the world of ice and snow..."
A small cleaning robot circled happily at Hao Ren's feet: "Weijiekari Company, an expert in manufacturing cleaning equipment, provides meticulous hygiene services for you and your loved home - can you imagine a person who left Weijiali?
How messy will the world of Jie Kali automatic equipment be? You need Jie Kali, you need everything here, and you need a home that is always clean and comfortable!"
More and more robots and vehicles appeared on the street, as if the whole world was beginning to press in. Hao Ren reached out to stop a taxi next to him, and looked at the pile of flashing robots on the driver's seat of the car.
The indicator light said: "Would you like to take us out of this city?"
The lights on the taxi's console dimmed immediately: "Sorry, there's a vehicle problem."
Hao Ren took out his silver spear and side gun from his pocket, and winked at Vivian beside him: "It seems that no one will let us take a ride."
A mighty mechanical army was gathering in front of everyone.
