Chapter 122 Chapter 122

"The Foundation now needs a person with a strong soul to enter the dangerous area of ​​the building to explore and solve the problem," Ain Rand crossed his hands on the table and looked at Taiming in front of him, "The souls of reincarnated people are usually strong, and they are a good choice. The Foundation is now looking for reincarnated people inside. Are you a reincarnated person?"

Taiming lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "I am."

Ain Rand smiled all of a sudden: "In that case, this is very good, which means that this task can be handed over to you, but before the task is handed over to you, you still need to be tested and confirmed by the Foundation. You should not mind confirming it?"

Taiming nodded: "I understand, I don't mind."

Ain Rand pointed to the door and said to him: "Then you follow Guiyuan out to confirm it."

Taiming looked at the door, and Guiyuan was indeed standing there waiting. He walked over, and Guiyuan took him to the back of the foundation's office building, After passing a long and quiet corridor, we arrived at a room.

"There is a display screen in this room," Guiyuan pointed to the black block on the wall. "This is a special item. When you go up and touch it, the display screen will intermittently show some of your past. If you are really a reincarnated person, the display screen has a chance to show your past events before reincarnation, and the foundation can confirm that you are really a reincarnated person.

If the display screen does not show your past events before reincarnation, you can try again. If you try three times, Nothing happened before reincarnation. This either proves that your luck is very bad, or that you are not a reincarnated person and are not suitable for taking over the task. You can go back to do what you should have done and don't have to worry about this anymore."

Taiming blinked: "So that's how it is. Let's start now."

Seeing that he looked normal, Guiyuan nodded, walked forward and touched the red button on the display. Just like a switch, the display lit up with a snap.

Guiyuan took two steps back, pointed at the display and said to Taiming: "It's your turn. Just reach out and touch the display."

Taiming nodded, walked forward, reached out and touched the display. When he touched the black display, white spots suddenly appeared. He took his hand back and the display returned to normal.

Guiyuan waved to him, and he walked to Guiyuan's side. Guiyuan pulled him back, and they retreated all the way to the wall of the room before they stopped. It was as if a tiger would jump out of the display screen and eat them both in one bite.

It felt really strange.

Taiming couldn't understand, and looked at Guiyuan and asked, "Is it necessary to be so nervous?"

Guiyuan nodded as if facing a formidable enemy: "Every special item deserves careful inspection, and prevention is also necessary. I am just acting according to the rules."

Taiming closed his eyes: "I understand."

Guiyuan's eyes fell quietly on the display screen, and pictures appeared on the display screen. Those pictures were fragmented and the colors were strange. They seemed to be drawn, or like pure imagination, and more like the situation in a dream. Anyway, it didn't seem like reality.

But Guiyuan was watching with great interest and tried to take out a notebook to record it. It seemed that he planned to write it down and then retell it later.

Taiming couldn't help but whispered: "Is this necessary? We should have brought a camera to record the whole process. If there is really something that we didn't notice, wouldn't we know it by watching the video?"

Guiyuan shook his head and said without even looking at him: "That's why you don't understand. Although the video is clear, it may not be infallible. Only by looking after each other can we understand what is wrong."

Taiming stopped talking.

The room remained quiet.

The image on the screen flashed by quickly, and finally turned black, without any color or light. Guiyuan wrote the last word, put away the pen, put the notebook back, patted his clothes and said to Taiming: "Let's go, we can go back now."

Taiming nodded and followed him out of the room.

Guiyuan handed all the data to Ain Rand. After reading it, Ain Rand nodded and said to Taiming: "You can be a reincarnated person, or you can take on this mission. Go back and rest, pack your things, and you will be assigned to take over the mission tomorrow morning. The foundation will also arrange other members to carry out the mission with you, but you may have to be the captain or deputy captain."

Ain Rand put the data aside, looked at Taiming and asked: "You have no objection to this arrangement?"

Taiming shook his head: "No objection."

Ain Rand said with satisfaction: "Okay, you can go."

Taiming left his office, returned to his work post, finished a day's work, and returned home.

He met Li Qingshan and Taylor.

Li Qingshan hugged him: "I'm glad we have completed another day's work."

"You are right." Taiming closed his eyes and hugged him, answering happily.

Li Qingshan let go of his hand. Taiming looked at Taylor. Taylor smiled and came up to hug him: "I'm glad we're still alive today."

Taiming nodded in agreement.

The next day, Taiming entered the foundation. After clocking in, he went to Ain Rand's office first. Ain Rand formally handed the mission to Taiming and introduced him to other members who accepted the mission.

"You are the captain," Ain Rand said to Taiming, "The others are all team members. You are a team. We will disband after the mission is over. I hope you can come back in one piece, not one less."

Taiming took the other mission members to the vicinity of the building.

"Let's explore the situation first. After all, I haven't been here for a while. We don't know what changes may have happened inside. It's easy to get into trouble if we go in rashly." Taiming said to the others.

The others nodded.

They went around the building to check.

After a while, they appeared in front of Taiming holding a child.

"Let me go, let me go! What do you want to do? It's wrong to do this! You can't do this!" The child twisted his body and shouted loudly, wishing he could jump up so that everyone could hear him, and he almost had a loudspeaker hanging from his mouth.

Tai Ming frowned and asked the team member who pushed the child over: "Why did you capture this person?"

The team member stood at attention and answered: "Captain, this child was sneaking around the building three times and didn't go in or leave. We were about to ask him about his situation, but he turned around and ran away. It was really suspicious so we captured him.

Maybe we can take him directly to the foundation and let him go after questioning him carefully, or lock him up. This will be good for our investigation."

At first the child twisted his body hard, stared with his eyes wide open and shouted loudly: "I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong, you perverts! Let me go, let me go now!"

But after hearing the latter part, the child's face color changed suddenly, and the whole person became quiet and wilted, like the grass dried by the sun, showing a gray-green color. He lowered his head as if poisoned, and could not utter anything for a while.

Taiming looked at the child and asked, "Why don't you talk?"

The child stared, as if someone called him out when he felt guilty, and shouted, "Why do you ask me not to talk? I've talked a lot! I can talk now!"

Taiming nodded and asked, "Is what others said true?"

The child's eyes swam left and right, and he refused to look at him. His voice became louder, "I don't know what you are talking about! What's true or false? Real or fake, it doesn't matter to me! Let me go, I want to go home for dinner. Let me go!"

When he said the word let go now, he didn't have the same momentum as before, even though his voice was louder than before and he looked more guilty than before.

Tai Ming raised his eyebrows: "Most people who feel they have been slandered will try their best to clarify or humiliate others, and will not avoid talking about it. It seems that you have been hit on the head."

The child jumped up and said with a red face: "Don't slander me! I don't know anything! Let me go home quickly! Otherwise, I will be rude to you!"

Tai Ming shook his head, not afraid of him: "If you are unwilling to tell the truth, we still have to tell you. If you are not polite, if you really want to be rude to us, then don't say anything. We will take you to the foundation, and we will naturally have the opportunity to slowly interrogate you.

It is up to you whether you want to speak or not, but whether it will succeed or not depends on us. We have more ways to interrogate than you think. People who don't understand us won't know. Do you really want to try, or do you really not even have the idea?"

Taiming looked at him with a smile, like a beautiful snake climbing on the wall of a small courtyard in the countryside.

The child shuddered, not daring to look at Taiming again, and tilted his head and said, "There is nothing to say. In fact, I don't know much. Why don't you let me go? I'm serious."

His voice became smaller and smaller, sounding like a whisper, but the people around him were all sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, and heard everything.

Since they heard that he really had something to say, of course it was impossible to let him go immediately.

Taiming smiled gently: "You know something even if you don't know much. Just tell us. As long as you tell us, we will let you go."

The child looked at him. On the one hand, he thought he was gentle, like a sunflower, and he should be able to tell him everything. On the other hand, he felt that he was like a wizard who was persuading the child to take him into the forest to eat him. He was a wizard who wore a black robe, a pointed hat, and was all shiny. He could use a magic wand to stir in a crucible to make strange and special medicines. He must not tell him what he knew.

The child hesitated for a long time, lowered his eyes and said slowly: "I can tell you, but I really don't know much. Once you know, you must let me go and can't ask me anything else."

Taiming smiled and nodded: "Of course, of course."

The child looked at him doubtfully. In fact, he didn't really believe it, but he still said: "I was resting last night and dreamed that I came near the building.

I knew I was dreaming at the time and didn't take it seriously, but I was woken up in the daytime. I opened my eyes and saw that I was actually wandering around the building. This was really scary. I jumped.

At first I couldn't tell whether I was dreaming or awake, but then I found that I was not dreaming, I really came to the vicinity of the building, but I don't remember how I got there. I

don't think I could walk from my residence to the vicinity of the building in one night, and there is no record of me spending money to buy a ticket. If you must trace it, I am afraid I came here in a dream, but if I say this, no one will believe it, not even myself. I

really don't understand why this happened.

Moreover, I am preparing for the exam recently, and I have been reciting the text every day. I just recited it once last night. This morning, I looked at the questions and had to recite them again. It should be a simple thing, but I couldn't recite them.

I heard that when you are emotionally unstable, you should try to concentrate on doing something that is very simple to do. This is good for stabilizing your emotions, so I wanted to try to recite to stabilize my panic.

But when I recited, I found that I recited incoherently and made mistakes. It was really terrible. I was already unstable, and my emotions became even more unstable. I really couldn't accept it. I recited for a long time but didn't remember anything clearly. I wanted to go home. Go.

It doesn’t matter whether you go home to eat, have a good rest, or recite it again, as long as you don’t do it outside or next to this building. But when I wanted to leave, you found me and chased me. I was so scared that I ran away.

But there were so many of you and you were so fast. You caught me before I could outrun you. "

The child sighed, and his fair face was full of worry. The worry spread all over his cheeks, like a spider's dense web, which made him look more than ten years older.

This made him look like a middle-aged man in his thirties, as if he was worried about whether to drink or not after spending a lot of money to invite a bunch of guests and going to an expensive hotel with a table full of food.

Taiming blinked his eyes and tried to comfort him, saying, "Maybe your family wanted to play a joke on you, so they took you here while you were asleep. The reason you had this dream is because you felt the bumps of the journey in your dream, and the feelings of your body were reflected in your dream, and you became what you are now."

The child pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I thought about it, but I didn't find any of my relatives and friends around. They don't live here, nor do they work nearby. How can I believe it?

They didn't have any signs before, and never told me that they would play such a joke on me, and they really didn't play such a joke before. They knew I would be scared.

I would really get angry about this kind of thing because it's too scary. They shouldn't do this. . Probably they really won’t do that.”

Taiming sighed and comforted him, “You can tell us your home address and we can send someone to take you home. It’s very easy for us.”

The child was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, looked up at him and said, “But my home is not nearby, it’s very far away, and the fare is very expensive. If you want to send me back, I’m afraid it will take some time and money. Is it really okay?”

Taiming smiled at him like a sunflower and said, “It doesn’t matter. The foundation should do these things. What’s more, if you have really told us everything you know, even if it’s just as a thank you, we should protect your safety and send you home. Haven’t you always said that you want to go home? It may be faster if we take you home.”

The child bit his lower lip, and blood flowed from his cracked lips. He frowned, a look of pain flashed across his face, and whispered: "Actually, there is one more thing, I just suddenly remembered it."

Taiming stared at him, his eyes burning and full of hope: "Go ahead!"

The child seemed to feel that a huge bathroom heater was baking his face with high temperature and warm light, and his cheeks became redder and redder: "Although we are on vacation recently, there were many fewer students in my class before the vacation. Some people said that the missing students asked for leave and wanted to take advantage of this long vacation to have a good time. Some people said that those students were missing and have not been found yet.

No one knows what happened, but I personally tend to believe the latter, because I was in At school, I didn’t see those students who didn’t go to school to ask for leave in person. The teacher always answered the phone after class, and looked very worried, as if something happened, not just a leave issue.

Taiming nodded, thanked him and said, "Very good, do you want to eat anything? Maybe we can buy something for you, you can take it with you on the way, don’t be hungry."

The child was happy to hear about eating, and couldn’t help laughing and said, "Is it true?"

Taiming nodded, "Really."

He took out money to buy food for the child. The child carried a lot of things, got on the car happily and waved to him, "Thank you, goodbye! Come to my house when you have time! I'll wait for you at home!"

Taiming nodded, waved, and the car drove away.

The rest of the team gathered around him.

"Captain," the team members looked at him and asked him, "What should we do next?"

Taiming thought for a moment and said, "Check around to see if there are other people with the same symptoms. We can record them first. People who live normally in the building should come out, and we can also see if they have any changes."

The others nodded and dispersed to do their work.

After recording, it was already noon. Everyone had a simple lunch, passed some information to each other, and prepared to enter the building. After entering, everyone dispersed.

Because they hadn't walked for a while, they entered the second level of the building. It was extremely quiet here, and they couldn't find anyone. There was nothing except themselves. The walls and the ground were the same as before, and the residents' doors were the same, but they couldn't even find a living insect.

Taiming walked around and felt that he could only rely on luck to find other people. He hoped that they would not suddenly remember the wrong information while walking and think that they could get out or be safe by jumping off the building.

After walking from downstairs to upstairs and then from upstairs to downstairs, Taiming suddenly found a team member refreshed in the building. Taiming walked around several times in this way and finally gathered all the team members together and asked them about the situation.

"How do you feel after entering?" Taiming looked at them and asked.

They said, "We were shocked when the people around us disappeared, but now that everyone is here, we don't feel scared, and our memory doesn't seem to have any problems."

Taiming nodded and said, "Okay."

They began to walk around inside, taking notes and asking questions: "Was there originally no door on the first floor?"

"Strange, I remember there was a door when I came in, maybe I remembered it wrong."

"Has there always been no windows on the top floor? What's that shiny thing up there?"

"That square frame is used to let in light. Although rain will fall when it rains, it's brighter and more breathable this way, isn't it?"

"Why do you sound like you've lived here before?"

"I don't know, about the same?"

Everyone turned around, Taiming was going to take them out, when leaving, an arm suddenly stretched out from the wall, picked up a team member at random, grabbed the person, and pulled the person into the wall with great strength, and disappeared.

Everyone was shocked.

"What should we do?" They looked at each other.

Taiming felt a little excited and said, "I'm the captain, let me go and take a look!"

Everyone agreed and stood outside waiting for him.

He walked in again.

There was still no one else here, and he didn't find his team members. He walked through the process of looking for team members before, but this time the team members didn't show up, so he started knocking on the wall.

"If you don't hand over my team members, I will tear this down! Now give them back to me!" Taiming said to the wall.

The wall was quiet.

Taiming knew that communication was not working, so he started to tear down the wall. He heard a rumbling sound, and the sky became gloomy, with dark clouds covering the sky, as if thunder and rain would come at any time.

Taiming took out a piece of paper from his bag and pasted it on the wall with a snap. Suddenly, a hole appeared on the wall. Taiming took out another piece of paper and pasted it on the wall, and a second big hole appeared on the wall.

The wall made a rumbling sound and seemed to be about to collapse. Taiming suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind him. He took out a piece of paper and turned around. A translucent blue arm was about to pat his shoulder, but it hit his paper and was swallowed up half of it.

The arm was visibly panicking and began to flail. The paper was swaying in the air, making a rustling sound. Taiming grabbed the paper and tried to use it to hold the arm back.

Another arm appeared on the side and pushed the team member forward from midair. The team member appeared right at the crack in the wall. He didn't react at all and his face was blank. He was pushed again by the arm and leaned back, about to fall through the crack. Taiming

took the paper back, turned around and reached out to hold the team member. The team member panicked and realized that he seemed to be hanging in the air. He was in a panic and tried to climb up from the air. He returned to the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.

The translucent blue arm suddenly slapped Taiming's back, and Taiming staggered forward. The team members were startled and quickly grabbed him and asked, "Are you okay?"

Taiming was stunned for a moment, shook his head slowly and said, "Nothing."

The team members quickly said, "Then let's go!"
