Restricted Doomsday Syndrome

Prostitute Takagawa and Misaki dive into the night, Marcelo ’s address is marked on the retina screen, and the navigation map is expanded in the virtual vision of the prosthesis Takagawa, blending with the observed scene data. There is too much data flowing in the retina screen, where he passes, detailed environmental records and judgments are integrated through the brain hardware. In a very short period of time, he will be able to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment just like the people who have lived in this place for many years. Even if you do n’t look for Marceau ’s whereabouts, it ’s a must-have to familiarize yourself with the place where you live temporarily. No matter whether the battle will start in this city, the investigation at this time is a powerful supplement to the whisperer database.

The air in this city is not very good. In the past, there was another name for "Fog City", which means "a city shrouded in fog all the year round." The reason why the fog is formed on such a scale is not related to environmental pollution. However, in the mystic culture, the original description of air quality also has another meaning. "Perpetually shrouded in mist" will produce all kinds of weirdness. The mist is also mysterious and terrible, and will kill people. Since a long time ago, there have been many anecdotes and strange talks in this city, and a lot of modern and strange things in the world are based on this city. For people who live here all year round, the smog is not a pleasant climate, but for outsiders, the city covered with mist is more full of romantic reverie.

Although entering the end of the twentieth century, the city regards the governance environment as one of its development priorities, and. After persevering for a long time, it has also been quite effective. The impression of being enveloped in fog in the past gradually receded from the feelings of the locals. Although the haze weather cannot be completely eliminated, the city's air is indeed much better than in the past. However, compared to the city where the whisperer is located, the environmental standard here is still slightly inferior. Of course, for more people, the reason why the impression is still in the past of "Fog City". It is not because of the influence of those well-known works in the past. I still have a romantic expectation for the mysterious and strange things in my heart. However, for the prostitute Gaochuan, the data on the amount of the environment is actually presented on the retina screen.

There was no fog this night, but the water vapor was still heavy. Half moon travels through the thin clouds, and the light cast is like being filtered by the gauze. The wind is strong, and it can be clearly seen that the moving clouds slide like ice floating on the dark water. When the wind passes through the narrow alleyway, there will be a slight whine, but the noise of the noisy city will cover it up. Looking down from above, it was like a crowd of people in the box maze. When the wind blew, there was an immediate pause, because many people were unanimously resisting the sudden wind. Prosperity Takagawa and Sakuya jumped between the buildings, just like two giant birds gliding in the concrete forest. Observe the operation of the city.

In this era, various observation devices based on technology. Such as satellites, cameras, and even mobile phones, they can record the current status of the entire city in the required time. Generally speaking, in the alert state, most things in London cannot avoid being locked by surveillance. They will be observed from a physical point of view with professional and non-professional observation instruments, and even people's eyes, and even the fluctuations emitted by themselves, such as heat, cold light, radiation, electromagnetic waves, etc., can be Technology creation lock.

However, there is only one case where the current technological creation is completely incapable, that is, "mystery". Prostitutes Gao Chuan and Saki Ye do not possess the professional mysterious power to hide their whereabouts, but when they do not want to be "seen", it seems that there will be a "mystery" covering them. Under normal circumstances, both Not noticed by most people. This is what the whisperer noticed after many actions. Although everyone else of the whisperer attributed this phenomenon to an inherent characteristic of those with mysterious power, the view of the righteous body Gao Chuan goes deeper into the essence-the end All the "mysterious" nature of the environment is the interference of spiritual consciousness. In this world composed of the personality consciousness of patients with doomsday syndrome, this is a phenomenon that most penetrates into the "world essence", and those who master the "mysterious", then It is a stronger source of interference than "ordinary people". Existence itself will oppress those "ordinary people". Even if he does not take the initiative to do so, when he comes up with such ideas, he will also realize from the "collective subconscious" Interference based on your own ideas.

In a normal material society, every thought of people exerts an influence on others through behavior, and in a world that is essentially ideological, every thought of people can affect others without the need for behavior. The complexity of this world lies in the superficiality and directness of this mutual influence of consciousness.

Everyone is influenced by the will of other personalities all the time, even if the two sides do not know each other, there is no substantive contact, no action to interfere with others, even if it is just lying in bed quietly waiting for death, this deep ideological Interfering with each other is also continuing, and this effect is sometimes presented in an observable surface form-that is weird and mysterious.

The prosthetic body Gaochuan, counted as another Gaochuan recovered based on his personality at this time, and the existence of "Jiang", the strong nature of its interference source is almost the pinnacle of this world. Even if he does n’t do anything deliberately, when there is the idea of ​​“covering up his actions”, his actions will be naturally ignored by most people, and what can be noticed by him, from a certain point of view, is necessarily Holder of weird and mysterious powers.

Although after the online ball issued a note, there must be many holders of mysterious power stepping into the city, but there are still three days to go before the meeting period. In terms of the population density of a city, it is hard to say what proportion it can occupy. At least, to release your strength this evening should also expose the two to the eyes of too many people in the circle.

Like ordinary tourists, it is also a good choice to take the city's transportation to the destination, but. Vehicles that can only travel on the ground can provide a view that is too narrow, and the two are not real tourists. When you already have a clear goal. High-altitude Mercedes-Benz, overlooking the city, this more efficient way is still the first choice.

Of course, the prostitutes Gao Chuan and Saki Ye are very certain that the online ball must have received the corresponding news when they waited for someone to arrive in London. If it is said that the other party cannot monitor the entry situation, it is almost impossible not to monitor the entry situation. Even if they are not noticed by ordinary people. However, the network ball should be able to observe your own actions, but since the other party did not come forward to prevent it, it is the recognition of the current behavior of the two of them.

Temptation, detection, inference ... All actions do not have only one effect, the action itself. Based on the other party ’s reaction, they can also obtain a variety of information. This way of thinking has been deeply imprinted in the bones of the prostitutes Takagawa and Sakuya. Although some information will not be used immediately, even fragmented, cumbersome and seemingly meaningless, crowded in the brain will only make people feel suffocated. Misaki is only a part of screening what he thinks is necessary, but for the prosthetic body Gaochuan with brain hardware, he does not care about the limitations of memory and thinking ability at all.

Brain hardware is running fast, and a large amount of data is fed back on the retina screen. Just like the same supercomputer, these trivial pieces that are unbearable for ordinary people are put together one by one. Form a clearer context. The city, in his eyes, was like a huge weirdness, accompanied by the citizens' breathing and heartbeat, agitating without stopping for a moment.

The pseudo-swift speed is fast enough, and the prostitutes Gao Chuan and Saki Ye have slightly detoured a bit, trying to ascertain the environment around the destination as clearly as possible. Ten minutes after leaving the hotel, the two people turned out from the shadows of the alleys, and some night owls stayed where they passed, and were startled by the two who appeared like ghosts. Some people who are drunk or have a very rude and irritable character will start without saying a word, and the end will naturally be no better.

Even Saki Ye, who had not turned into an Ashbringer, was not able to be evened by these seemingly tall and ordinary people. With enough combat experience, her men did not have a single enemy. When the two returned to the normal street, there was a cry of wailing in the shadows.

Marceau is not a native of London. The address found in Eight Views is a somewhat old three-story apartment with graffiti and advertisements on the outside wall of the apartment building. There is no management office in this building. All people living here pay rent to the same landlord, but the landlord does not live here. This landlord is a middle-aged woman. This apartment building is not her only asset. However, in the online rental information, only this building has a clear price and photos.

Because there is no special management office, no matter what happens to the tenants in this building, you need to handle it yourself. Power outages and water cuts, damage to the decoration, visits by guests, or murder in the room, the neighborhood will not pay attention until things are apparent, it is a very indifferent residence.

Marceau had a well-paid job in the past world line, so he could become a sponsor of Omi. And in this world line, just like Misaki, Hachijing, Shirai, and Morino, her situation is slightly different, but before leaving for London, she should have accumulated considerable deposits, and she also sold In view of the property located in the United States, Bajing did not find any news of her debt from the intelligence network. To be precise, before she left, she broke off all the relationships in the United States, sorted out all her debts, paid off all her favors, and came to the city in a clean and blank gesture—but this itself It's a weird place. If nothing special happens, no one will cut their past so neatly.

As if it were something to escape.

The retina screen of the prosthetic body Gaochuan presents various data about this apartment building, and the intelligence of Marceau is filtered in his mind, trying to make a more complete pattern. Saki looked around, the pedestrians under the street lights hurriedly passed behind the two, the bus had stopped working, and private cars were also very scarce, basically pedestrians. The night was cold and windy. Many of them put their hands in the coat pockets and hung their heads, as if thinking about something. Those wearing hats lowered the brim of the hat. Other things.

This place is colder than the city where it lives on this night of the season, making people feel that the weather is a bit weird. The night fog is not intense. But still lingering in the open space, it was rolling with the wind. Sakuya put the hood behind her head. I tidied my hair stranded by the wind.

"Go in." Gao Chuan, the prostitute, said to her.

"Huh." Sakuya nodded and accompanied Gao Chuan on the iron ladder on the side wall of the apartment. The clanging metal sound appeared slightly loud in the wind, but neither of them had the strength to step on the stairs. The atmosphere was slightly tense because of the sound. Nothing tried to attack the two, and no dangerous anomalies were observed for the time being. However, this kind of "must be vigilant" atmosphere does exist, and, with the rhythm of the footsteps, it becomes more and more intense.

Miyaki put her hand in her pocket and grabbed the pistol inside. She wanted to bring the bear puppet, if in case, can also become an ash messenger, to better come in handy. However, after the war against the Goat Guild, the prosthetic body Gao Chuan strictly restricted her use of Luo Xia's ink mask. For the first time since gaining the ability to transform, she grabbed the gun for the first time. It has not been practiced for a while. Does n’t the quasi-head go backwards too much? Thinking about it in her heart, she was suddenly nervous, like a heavy soldier who was accustomed to wearing armor, and suddenly full-time was not suitable for light infantry.

However, when her eyes fell on the mature back of the prosthetic body Gao Chuan. The mood could not help but relax.

The footsteps of the two were due to the iron ladder. They sounded too loud, but nobody really went out to join in the excitement. On this quiet night, the apartment building fell into a dark silence. There were no lights that didn't sleep all night, and the prosperity in the distance did not bring any fluctuations to the place. The only thing that illuminated the road was the street lights not far away, and the moonlight that had passed through the clouds. Unlike the vitality of the city that never felt when overlooking from a high altitude, this area is like the dead skin of this city.

They went up to the third floor without stopping, and walked to the end of the room, the door was skewed, and the mottled and unpainted numbers were faintly visible in the dim light. It is here that the prosthetic body Gao Chuan carefully observed that the door plate was not replaced recently. The dust at the door gap has not been cleaned for some time. Many similar small details are listed in the retina screen and summarized by the brain hardware. Detailed conclusions. He stretched out his hand to straighten the doorplate, grabbed the door handle and twisted it twice gently, and as a result, the handle made a clicking sound and easily separated from the door.

The door is made of iron. Looking at the edge of the door lock, there are traces left by welding. Generally speaking, it is impossible to pull out the handle with the lock without extraordinary power or corresponding tools. . However, the prosthetic body Gaochuan did not use much strength, he pulled his hand out. The two looked at each other, and the part where the handle is inside the door was rusty and cracked. However, if Marceau lived here, there was no reason not to ignore the rusty door lock, and the door lock could be rusted to this. This level is definitely not a normal thing.

"Stainless steel, anti-corrosion paint is intact." Yichuan Gaochuan said to Saya: "It seems that the intruders are also quite violent."

"If it is a force that can act on the human body, it is really a terrible ability." Sakuya shrugged and gently pushed the room away. After confirming the weirdness of the door lock, the tight atmosphere disappeared a lot. Even though he hasn't entered yet, Sakuya already has a feeling that there are neither people nor ambushes and traps inside.

After the two entered, Moonlight found the light switch, but the light was not turned on several times. Prostitute Gao Chuan pulled out a lighter from his pocket, lit the flames and scanned the situation inside the house, while Saya turned around and closed the door again. Now, there seemed to be only two of them in the room. In the observation of the chain judgment, this matching single room with a size of forty squares constitutes the model on the retina screen ~ www.readwn.com ~ and the neighbors on the other side and the room below, the observed data are quite normal ——All are ordinary people who work normally.

Misaki walked through the bathroom and toilet, and turned around in the room again, and found several unusually rusted metal objects, as well as some deliberately damaged items, including paper, porcelain, plants, and two Finger.

"The fingers are men's." The retina screen of the prosthetic body Gaochuan was immediately identified: "What was destroyed ... looks like it is decaying."

"Rotten power regardless of material?" Sakuya frowned.

"Except for her fingers, there are no more signs of fighting and no blood stains." She went on to say, "What was destroyed is more likely to be affected by the leaked energy."

"I didn't find any more clues, they were all destroyed by the decayed force." The body style Gao Chuan took out a cigarette and lit a cigarette for himself. His face was still calm in the swaying fire. The current situation was It is not beyond his expectations. It is better if the enemy is a simple character. It would be better if Marceau had n’t happened yet. However, even if there is not enough clues at present to confirm Marceau ’s situation, the enemy also looks at it. He seems to have some strength, and he will not be alarmed. (To be continued ...)
