Lin Sanjiu sat on the sofa, holding her hands together, stunned and unable to recover.
Nowadays, every ordinary person on the farm has witnessed the original incident. They should know very well that it was a few weeks ago that the evolved ones broke into the farm and killed all the pig-shaped fallen species.
She was very sure that it was not that the underground farm suffered another attack yesterday - not to mention that apart from her, there may not be a second evolutionist in the world who would attack the farm; even if there were, there would be many "pigs" everywhere.
"Mr. Pig" can be killed? Naturally, it cannot be called "Mr. Pig died heroically yesterday".
The underground farm was attacked only once, and it was her.
In other words, Lin Sanjiu's destruction of the farm was indeed discussed on the radio as if it had just happened yesterday; it seemed that ordinary people on the farm had fully accepted what was said on the radio.
No wonder the farm is so peaceful and almost dull...
If ordinary people think that the "farm attack" just happened yesterday, that the management is actively handling it, and that life will return to normal soon, there will indeed be no trouble - they are still waiting for the pigs to take care of it.
But, how?
How come something that clearly happened happened can’t be remembered at all by those who witnessed it?
Lin Sanjiu could only think of one answer.
It was the answer in her heart that made her feel uncomfortable all over, as if her hands and feet were being pricked by countless needles, and she could not sit still for a while; she took two deep breaths and finally stood up.
If she continues to think wildly by herself, she will inevitably become more and more confused; now she needs to talk to a clear-minded person to discuss a plan or method... Qing Jiuliu and Yu Yuan are probably asleep, and the gift bag is a data body.
You're still awake, right?
The gift bag also has a room dedicated to him, but most of the time, he prefers to stay by Lin Sanjiu's side. Lin Sanjiu first went back to his room and looked around, but did not find Ji Shanqing; he went to knock again
I opened the door to his room and found no one inside.
"Shales?" Lin Sanjiu called, "Do you have any interaction records left by Ji Shanqing in your system?"
"The last interaction recorded by 'Ji Shanqing' was when he asked me where there was a vacuum cleaner."
That should have happened not long after returning from the beach... Libao was still busy asking everyone to clean up the sand on the boat. Since there is no record, just put a paper crane to find him——
"But," Salas said suddenly.
Lin Sanjiu stopped her hand and subconsciously raised her head.
The PA system was installed close to the ceiling, and sometimes she would mistake Shales for a person and unconsciously look toward the ceiling when the latter was speaking.
Sales's voice was very soft, almost like a person mumbling to himself, and he said a few words in a hum.
It seemed that he only heard half of it clearly... Lin Sanjiu waited for a while and then asked again: "What? Say it again."
"Okay," Sales said.
Lin Sanjiu stood where she was, listening to Shales repeating the words word for word.
It wasn't just repetition; Salais added a lot of content, added a lot of details, and spoke clearly and rationally. Lin Sanjiu listened, nodded, and thought. When Salais finished speaking, he also
He took a long breath.
She had never thought about this problem carefully before... Although she didn't want to admit it, she had to say that even though Orcius regarded human life as nothing, he was right on at least one thing.
If Sales hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to recall it for a while.
"However, there is no need to turn on all the announcers on the ship," Lin Sanjiu shook her head, listening to the faint echoes deep in the corridor that had not yet dissipated, and said, "What you said makes sense, indeed.
That's it. But wait until tomorrow morning, isn't it okay? The whole ship suddenly heard an announcement, and someone must have been woken up by you."
Sales didn't answer.
Lin Sanjiu looked at the paper crane in his hand, and while recalling what Oasis had said, he gently threw it into the air. "I'm at the observation deck," the paper crane wrapped around this sentence and fluttered.
The edge disappeared deep into the corridor.
How long has she been in the apocalyptic world? More than ten years?
Lin Sanjiu walked into the viewing platform, stood in the center of the hall, looked out the window at the dark blue night sky, and fell into confusion.
For more than ten years, every time she looked up at the sky, she never thought much about it. She thought she knew what was on the planet because she had driven a spaceship, penetrated the atmosphere, entered the universe, and seen it with her own eyes.
Through the darkness of space.
But...she actually doesn't know. She wants to know.
Lin Sanjiu's chest felt faintly warm, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath.
It's not enough, this kind of world is not enough. She wants to soar into the sky, cross the clouds, and let her eyes go all the way up; she wants to know what kind of world there is outside the night sky and above the universe——
Will the apocalyptic world be just a reflection or a corner of it?
Isn't there a broader, more wonderful world, and more unimaginable legendary lives?
"elder sister?"
Lin Sanjiu turned around and saw a figure standing at the entrance of the observation deck.
"Why didn't you turn on the light?"
Libao said, turning on the light - the gentle light suddenly poured into the room, illuminating his somewhat confused face. Rarely, he looked a little absent-minded, as if part of his mind had been separated.
, thinking about something deep down.
Lin Sanjiu smiled. "Did you hear it too?"
"Well, was that broadcast sent by my sister?" Libao said, sitting on the sofa like a wandering soul, and said: "I...I have never found relevant information in the database, but the data volume
They are not an ambitious group, they may have never looked up..."
Lin Sanjiu walked over and gently held his hand. Ji Shanqing, who used to care about nothing but her, now had his fingers trembling slightly in her hand due to an excitement that he could not understand.
"What Orcius said was not a figment of his imagination,"
Ji Shanqing suddenly said, "It's just that we have never analyzed it in depth. Sister, you are right. If the universe we live in today is an onion, what about the top of the onion? What about the outside of the onion? How can the onion be alone?
Existence? If the 'onion' universe that contains the doomsday world is just one of many 'onions', there is a store outside it, and there is a city outside that store..."
Lin Sanjiu was startled.
The roiling heat in my chest slowly sank, like the ashes after a bonfire burned out. It only lit up occasionally when I breathed, but it still refused to remain silent.
"Wait a minute," she interrupted the gift package and said word by word: "I don't remember what Shales just said about onions and the store..."
Ji Shanqing was not surprised. "I know, it was you who said it, sister."
"What? Wait, do you think - by the way, you just said that the broadcast was made by me?"
"Isn't it?" Li Bao was also stunned.
"That's what Sales said, not me."
Wait, was it Salis who said that?
Lin Sanjiu felt as if she had been poured a handful of snow water on her pocket in her sleep. Before the wonderful dream she had a chance to experience could unfold, she had already fallen out and returned to the disappointing reality.
inside.
Libao opened his mouth slightly, as if even he didn't know what to say.
In addition to the loss, a layer of cold fear gradually emerged.
"The broadcast you just heard... doesn't it sound friendly and trustworthy?" Lin Sanjiu stared at the gift bag and asked in a low voice: "Don't think about whose voice it is, just think about the feeling it makes you.
"
"Yes," Ji Shanqing nodded and said, "Actually... I can't even remember whose voice it was."
So does Lin Sanjiu.
At the time, she took it for granted that it was Saleis's voice, but now that she thought about it, she couldn't even be sure whether it was a boy or a girl; she only knew that the voice was calm and firm, kind and steady... As long as she listened with all her heart, all the confusion in her life would disappear.
The clouds clear and the fog disperses.
"I think I know what's going on..." Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath and whispered. "Do you know why I asked you to come?"
Ji Shanqing has no consciousness and cannot see the information contained in the "plasticine space", and it is very time-consuming to interpret. She smiled bitterly and said first, "Don't ask for now, where did I get the information?"
, and then described the underground farms he saw one by one, without sparing any detail.
"You should understand now, right?"
Ji Shanqing frowned and nodded slightly.
"Let me sort it out... The underground farm that had an accident a few weeks ago is still barely maintaining peace, because they still think that the attack by the evolutionists happened yesterday, and they are still waiting for the pigs to be reinstated.
." He speculated, "In other words, in the past few weeks, they thought every day that the attack happened 'yesterday'."
Lin Sanjiu closed her eyes and exhaled.
"I think it's not that their memories have been tampered with, because even a copy of Ah Quan cannot delete the memories of hundreds or thousands of people at once... the workload is too great." Libao said thoughtfully, "If it wasn't for the
When it comes to memory, there is only one possibility."
Lin Sanjiu nodded and said, "Broadcast."
"The ability of the person who made the broadcast is really amazing. Under his repeated indoctrination, ordinary people will not even believe what they see and hear with their own eyes and ears, but will completely believe in him."
... Lin Sanjiu only knew one person with this kind of ability. It was precisely because he planted a belief system in the minds of ordinary people that the underground farm could operate efficiently and rigorously, extracting the lives of countless people.
Compared to before, his abilities seemed to have improved a lot.
"After you, sister, discovered this... a broadcast suddenly sounded on our spaceship." He whispered, "It's hard for me to believe that this is just a coincidence."
"Although I don't understand why or how he entered the spacecraft's broadcast system, there are still too many unanswered questions. But there is one thing I think is right..."
Lin Sanjiu turned her head, looked at the night outside the window, and whispered: "The person who made us suddenly think about the 'world above the world' just now should be Batou De."
I had already thought about the content of this chapter, but I was a little unsure about how to express it, so I had to overturn it and start over again halfway through the writing, which took a long time... The writing of these two chapters became less cunning, and I gradually regained my composure.
I feel better. When I start exercising again and get back on track with my life, I should be in a qualified state to welcome the ending.
PS: This chapter won’t be too confusing, right? Is it clear?
