When Old Man Chen said this, his eyes were bloodshot and his voice was choked. "I don't believe it. My wife and I have lived together for so many years and raised our son. I remember everything, but no one except me remembers them.
My neighbor used to hold my son when he was little, and just the other day she square-danced with my wife. Now she says I'm crazy, saying I've been single all these years, so where would I get a wife and children? Anyone who enters that street is like being wiped off a canvas, completely gone, and along with the memory of them.
[Shh, this is so scary. It's one thing for people to disappear, but even for everyone to forget them is scarier than death. And only the old man remembers them. How desperate must that be.]
Am I the only one who thinks this old man is insane and telling stories? Maybe his wife and son are just figments of his imagination. How could anyone truly have the ability to alter the world? With so many people, there would definitely be traces of their existence, right? If his wife went in, but his son didn't, if his wife vanished out of thin air, wouldn't others wonder how his son came to be? Then they'd definitely remember the fact that he had a wife.
Is it possible that if it was his wife who disappeared, then the child she gave birth to would appear to be his adopted child...?
Shi Ling seemed to be lost in thought and asked Old Man Chen, "Your wife and son disappeared after entering this street. Why didn't you go in and look for them?"
[Hiss, is Shi Ling a demon? His wife and son disappeared, leaving him alone is already tragic enough. If he goes in, won't his whole family be wiped out?]
[I think Shi Ling's question is normal. If my wife and son were missing, I would definitely go in and look for them. The worst that could happen is that the whole family would disappear.]
"But you still have to consider your parents. What if you disappear too? What if your parents are old and have no one to support them? And even Grandpa Chen guessed that he would disappear if he went in. No one would dare to go in, right?"
Netizens expressed their opinions and discussed the matter, and some Zero-One fans even started to speculate online.
After hearing Shi Ling's words, Old Man Chen looked at the old street fearfully, as if he were looking at a man-eating beast. His voice was low and full of guilt: "I dare not go in."
Not everyone has the courage to take a gamble, but everyone is afraid of the unknown extinction.
"Everyone who went in disappeared. My wife, my son, my son's colleagues. This old street has always been here, like a devil with its mouth open. Later, even the demolition team disappeared, but this street remained. Later, this old street disappeared from everyone's memory, forgotten in this old city. Even the residents who once lived here seemed to have forgotten they had ever lived on this old street after they moved away. It has become a forgotten corner."
Why did it disappear? It's such a big street, how could no one see it?
Where did they go after they disappeared? Did they become food for the monsters?
[It's broad daylight, and I suddenly feel a little scared. Shi Ling, why don't you not go in? I don't want to forget you.]
Shi Ling glanced at the live broadcast room and asked the same question: "Can't they see this street?"
"I can't see it. For all these years, besides me, you're the only one who can see this street."
The old man glanced at the phone in Shi Ling's hand that was live-streaming the video. "I don't know why your phone can capture this street. But mine can't."
As he said that, he took out his cell phone, took a picture in the direction of the street, and then showed the picture to Shi Ling.
Netizens in the live broadcast room also saw it, and their hair stood on end for a moment.
In the photo, there is no old street, only an empty wasteland. (End of this chapter)
