Chapter 124 Chapter 124
An Rand was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect him to ask this. He squinted his eyes and smiled slowly: "Not bad, do you want to take a closer look? That will take a lot of time. I will only give you a day off today. If you spend all your time at the foundation today, I will not give you a day off tomorrow. Are you sure?"
Tai Ming hesitated: "I will only take a look. I will leave immediately after taking a look. It won't take a lot of time. I believe it will still be mine today."
An Rand nodded and took out the folder: "In that case, then you can take it and have a look."
He was about to leave, but Tai Ming stopped him: "You don't have to leave in a hurry. I will only take a look and give it back to you immediately after taking a look. You can take it and put it back. The things will not pass through other people's hands. It is safe, convenient and fast. It's good for everyone, so it won't get lost."
Ayn Rand looked at him: "Then I'll just wait a moment."
Taiming nodded, lowered his eyes and opened the document bag, quickly glanced at the things inside, stuffed the things back into the bag, and returned the bag to Ayn Rand: "Okay, I don't have anything else to look at, thank you."
Ayn Rand took the bag and said with emotion: "You are really fast."
Taiming smiled: "Isn't it?"
He turned and left.
Ayn Rand put the document back where it was.
At night, Li Qingshan and Taylor returned to their residence. Taiming woke up. Although he was not in high spirits, he felt much better. Seeing the two of them, he raised his hand and greeted them: "Hello!"
Li Qingshan nodded and said to him: "Hello!"
Taiming asked with a smile: "Did your work go well today?"
Li Qingshan sat next to him: "Not really."
Taiming tilted his head, looked at him and asked: "Do you feel better now?"
Li Qingshan closed his eyes and nodded.
Taiming asked again: "Do you remember what I saw at the foundation during the day?"
Taylor said on the other side: "I remember, what's wrong?"
Taiming looked at him and took out a notebook from his bag and gave it to him: "Write it down?"
Taylor looked at the notebook and couldn't help laughing: "Is it you who hasn't woken up yet, or me?"
Taiming stuffed the notebook into his hand and said: "It will be useful to me, please write it down, I can't remember it clearly, but I know you must remember it, so I don't worry at all, please write it down Come on."
Taylor sighed and put the things on the table: "Okay, let's not do it
again next time." Taiming hugged him and smiled: "Let's talk about it later. Thank you this time."
Taylor pushed him away: "Don't bother me later. I need some time to write those things down. It's not just one or two sentences."
Taiming nodded repeatedly: "I won't do anything!"
Taylor smiled: "That's good."
After that, he lowered his head with a pen and wrote and drew on the notebook, writing down everything he saw during the day.
Li Qingshan tilted his head beside him and seemed to have fallen asleep. Taiming sat on the sofa and looked at Taylor's pen, which made a rustling sound on the paper. He felt a little anxious and stood up. He wanted to take a few steps, but he was worried that the sound of walking would affect Li Qingshan's rest and Taylor's concentration.
Taiming put Li Qingshan on the bed in the bedroom and took another nap.
When he woke up, it was already daytime. He walked to the living room, sat on the sofa and looked forward. He saw a notebook and a pen on the coffee table. He picked up the things and opened them. The notebook was already full of things.
He read it carefully and lay on the sofa with his eyes closed.
There was no problem with the problem, but the judgment of the special items given to him was a bit strange.
He arrived at the foundation on time to work, and Ayn Rand found him.
"You also read the report yesterday," An Rand stared at him and said, "I think it is necessary to deal with it further."
Taiming smiled, still looking very sleepy: "How to deal with it?"
An Rand handed him a piece of paper: "Please go to the room with the large color screen and touch the screen. The screen will give very detailed results. That's enough."
Taiming looked at the content on the paper, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go now."
An Rand turned on the surveillance and watched Taiming go all the way into the room with the large color screen, touch the screen, adjust the camera, and wait for the reaction of the large color screen.
The large color screen showed Li Qingshan and Taiming. Taiming's heart tightened, not knowing what this thing would show. Then, he saw the screen display, Taiming said to Li Qingshan: "Senior brother, why do you think you are my senior brother the first time I see you?"
Taiming breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of thing should not be able to tell anything.
The color screen continued to show that Taiming and Li Qingshan went down the mountain together and encountered a strange monster. In order to save Taiming, Li Qingshan stood in front of him and was killed by the monster. He turned into a ball of blood and flesh. Taiming was stimulated, his eyes widened and he shouted, and he threw himself at the monster, fighting with the monster for life and death. The monster twitched and lay on the ground, with a loud bang, it sounded like a mountain collapsed.
After that, Taiming cut the monster into pieces, and then into strips, turned around and threw himself beside Li Qingshan, picked him up, buried his face in his body, and cried loudly, his tears soaked his blood-stained clothes.
Taiming couldn't bear to look at this picture, and looked away, inexplicably feeling that he was actually being publicly executed.
Ayn Rand sat in the office and looked at the camera's images. He touched his chin and thought, "It looks amazing."
Taiming began to get restless. He saw the camera hanging on the corner and asked the camera, "Can I leave now?"
Ayn Rand controlled the camera and nodded. Taiming ran away, closing the door gently when he left. It was like a sprint, leaving that place.
Perhaps it was because standing on the land and being illuminated by the sun would make Taiming feel happy. Standing on the warm land and looking at the sun, Taiming breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down, just like when he was hungry and suddenly saw white bread and potato soup on the table.
He returned to his job at the foundation and spent a peaceful day.
The next day, Ayn Rand found him and said, "Excuse me, I have a new task for you."
Taiming blinked and asked, "What is it?"
Ayn Rand smiled and said, "It's about the building."
Taiming nodded and asked, "Should I go alone or with a group of people?"
Ayn Rand replied, "You go with a group of people."
Taiming prepared a little: "Now or when?"
Ayn Rand looked at him: "Go today, I'll notify them immediately."
Taiming nodded: "Okay."
He checked his bag: "What do I need to do this time?"
Ayn Rand replied: "A spirit suddenly ran out of the building, went to the side, and swallowed up the memories of the residents in a residential building, causing those residents to be unconscious, unable to recognize people, and even unable to work normally.
The foundation has sent people, but the employees sent out have also had their memories swallowed up and are wandering inside. What you need to do is to take people to the residential building and solve the problem of the spirit that swallowed the memory, or bring it back. "
Taiming nodded and closed his bag: "Can I talk to my friend before I leave?"
An Rand had no objection: "Of course."
Taiming went to find Li Qingshan: "Maybe I won't come back. Maybe I won't remember you after I come back. I think it's better for us to go together. I won't let you die in front of me."
Li Qingshan thought about it: "It sounds good."
He looked at Taiming and asked: "Can we go together?"
Taiming looked at him and said: "We can. I'll go to An Rand now. Anyway, he said that more than one person will go, and you shouldn't be a problem, since you are not from outside the foundation."
Li Qingshan blinked: "That's great."
Taiming went to find An Rand, and An Rand agreed: "In that case, I will arrange one less person and let Li Qingshan fill this gap."
"Thank you." Taiming said.
Ayn Rand waved her hand and said, "It's okay."
When everyone was gathered, they set out immediately. When they arrived at the location, it was an old residential building with a lot of noise inside. People from the foundation were transferring residents with memory damage to the hospital for treatment. Soon the place was empty.
A staff member of the foundation said to Taiming: "All residents should have been relocated, but the members of the foundation who were sent to solve the problem lost their memories and disappeared. The only thing we can be sure of is that they never came out after they went in. We have been guarding here and have not seen them. You can
look for them after you go in, and be careful not to get lost. We will wait for you outside and provide treatment at any time, but we will never go in. If you think you see us inside, don't believe it."
Taiming said: "Okay, we understand."
A group of people entered the residential building.
They walked for a while and then went their separate ways. They
were walking together and were clearly on the same stairs, but when they turned around, the people around them disappeared one by one, and no one even saw how the disappeared people disappeared.
In the end, there were only Li Qingshan and Taiming on the road. The reason why they could still stay together might be because they were the same person.
After walking for a while, Taiming suddenly stopped and stood straight on the stairs, facing forward, with his eyes wide open. He didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he came to his senses and turned to go downstairs. Suddenly he saw Li Qingshan standing next to him and was stunned for a moment.
"Who are you?" Taiming looked at Li Qingshan and asked hesitantly and surprised.
Li Qingshan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm your friend and also your colleague. We live together. My name is Li Qingshan."
Taiming touched his head: "It seems there is such a person, but I don't remember."
Li Qingshan touched him: "I will remember it, it's okay.
" Taiming nodded, thinking: "What are we doing here?"
Li Qingshan replied: "We are here to capture a spirit related to memory."
Taiming blinked, looking a little confused: "Great, then should we go upstairs?"
Li Qingshan glanced at the stairs and said, "Let's go up to the top floor and take a look before coming down. We have to find the spirit first to solve the problem. If we can't find it, let alone catch it, we can't leave."
Taiming nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
He took two steps forward and suddenly stopped. Li Qingshan was nervous and looked at him and asked, "What happened this time?"
Taiming turned his head and slowly looked at Li Qingshan and said, "It's so strange. I feel that I should take action against you. You seem to be very annoying and my enemy, but I think That's not right, and, no matter what, I shouldn't hate you."
He looked at Li Qingshan for a long time: "There must be something wrong."
Li Qingshan blinked and said: "It seems that your memory is confused."
Taiming sighed: "That thing is so annoying."
He paused, suddenly looked at Li Qingshan and asked: "That thing can't be you, right? Otherwise, why should I hate you?"
Li Qingshan looked at him and shook his head, his face was actually at a loss: "No."
Taiming Nodding: "I don't think so either."
He frowned and thought about it, and soon showed a suspicious look: "But it's still not right. If my memory was disturbed, how was it disturbed? Because I'm standing here or because the thing that ruins other people's memory is right next to it?"
Li Qingshan was about to speak when Taiming suddenly turned around and left, walking quickly to the top of the building. Li Qingshan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had something to do, so he followed him and found that he had already flipped over the railing and was about to jump down.
Li Qingshan was startled. He stretched out his hand and grabbed him, shouting, "Wake up! You didn't come here to jump off the building!"
Taiming said with tears streaming down his face and shaking his head, "I am very sober. Let go of my hand and don't save me. I owe 10 million. How can I live? I can't pay it back at all! I don't want to become a debt collector with a debt of 100 million! What a terrible thing, what a terrible future!"
Li Qingshan was stunned. He didn't expect him to say these. It took some effort to understand what he was saying. She held him with both hands and said, "If you can't pay it back, don't pay
it back. What's the big deal?" Li Qingshan began to talk nonsense: "In fact, I won the lottery the day before yesterday, and the stock market soared the day before yesterday. I already have 100 million now. Don't say that you only owe 10 million. Even if you really owe 100 million, I can take out all the money and give it to you so that you can pay it back. Don't go down, come back and accompany me.
Okay?"
Taiming was also stunned for a moment and took a breath of cool air. He took Li Qingshan's nonsense seriously, and a red look of joy appeared on his pale face: "Really? That's great!"
He was about to come up, but he was stuck on the roof and hesitated, "But that's your money, how can I use it? Your family will not agree. They will definitely scold me and beat me and drive me away from you. They think I am a bad influence on you and that I will take your money sooner or later. They also ask you to stay away from me. Not only will I not get the money, but I will also lose you as a friend."
He showed a painful expression and returned to the railing: "If that's the case, I would rather die, so that you won't lose your money, and I won't lose you as a friend. I just hope you can accompany me at my funeral." As he
spoke, he was about to let go of her hand.
Li Qingshan took a breath of cool air and said to him, "If you go down, I will jump with you!"
Taiming was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "Impossible! You have so much money, so many houses, so many relatives and friends, you can't abandon them. You are not like me who owe so much money." As
he spoke, the expression on his face gradually turned into painful regret and remorse, as if the words just now had dug out his heart and were accelerating his death.
Li Qingshan simply flipped out: "I'm not kidding you, if you don't live with me, then I'll die with you."
Taiming's expression was dull, and he threw Li Qingshan back, slowly crawled to Li Qingshan's side, squatted on the ground and said: "I won't jump, don't die with me."
His face flushed, tears in his eyes, and he said aggrievedly: "Don't die."
Li Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, hugged him, patted his back and comforted him: "Okay, okay, it's okay, no one will die, okay?"
Taiming hugged Li Qingshan and nodded: "Okay."
At this time, a translucent blue arm suddenly stretched out from the corner of the wall behind Li Qingshan. The arm was very long, and it suddenly rushed towards Li Qingshan's neck like a snake.
Taiming's eyes widened in shock, and he immediately threw Li Qingshan down. He didn't have time to react for a while, and was strangled by the translucent blue arm.
The arm lifted Taiming up from the ground, just like lifting a heavy weight.
Taiming struggled for a few times, but there was nothing he could do. His cheeks turned red and purple due to lack of oxygen, his lips trembled, and his eyes stared at Li Qingshan, as if he wanted to say something, probably a suicide note.
Li Qingshan was stunned for a moment, got up from the ground, patted his clothes, grabbed Taiming, and began to think of a solution.
Taiming was about to die. Li Qingshan opened Taiming's bag, took out a piece of paper from it, and slapped the paper on the blue arm. The arm trembled and lost a section, but it didn't seem to have changed.
Li Qingshan frowned, took out a pen from his bag, and used the pen to inject the needle into the arm, just like a qualified nurse in a hospital giving an injection to a patient. He did it without hesitation, without any pain, and it was not bad at all.
The arm began to tremble violently, and all kinds of bumps began to appear on the surface of the skin, as if something was about to come out from underneath. Li Qingshan felt that this thing was about to explode.
He quickly snatched Taiming back from his arm and dragged the staggering Taiming downstairs.
But at this moment, he stopped, took a step back, put Taiming on the ground, and let him rest against the wall, because Li Qingshan saw a group of people appear on the stairs.
The group of people were holding all kinds of things in their hands, such as brooms, boxes, and door panels. They walked up step by step, their faces were extremely angry, and there was even a little steam coming out of their heads, like a boiling kettle.
"Calm down!" Li Qingshan shouted at them.
"What are you talking about? What's there to be calm about? We have lived here for generations, and you dare to come here and say you want to tear down this building without giving us any compensation. Where are we going to live in the future?
We don't have money to buy a new house! Besides, even if we can buy a new house, is it necessarily better than the old one? You don't give us money or a house, and you dare to bring people with you. Do you think we are dead?" People shouted at him.
It took Li Qingshan a while to understand what they were saying: "I'm not here to tear down your house! You don't live here! This is not your house! You are employees of the foundation! You are here to carry out a mission! Don't get confused about the situation!"
They didn't listen to what he said, but rushed up with things in their hands, like a swarm of hungry locusts, like a group of zombies with rotten bodies but wanting to eat brains.
Li Qingshan was shocked by the momentum and took a step back. He couldn't help but pull Taiming, who was resting on the ground, up and urged him, "Think of a way quickly! I can't beat so many of them by myself! I will never win! I don't want to be beaten! Can you think of something now? For example, a talisman
that can freeze everyone at once?" Taiming didn't understand the situation yet, looked at him and asked, "You just told me that you got a lot of money. Could it be that you helped others and forcibly demolished these people's houses? That kind of money is too wasteful! You " Even if you dare to take it, I dare not use it."
Li Qingshan pushed him to the back: "You dare to use it, but I dare not take it! Let's talk about the money later, okay?"
Taiming nodded, retreated to the back corner, and rummaged through his package: "Talismans and the like, I can't remember anything at all. Was I a talisman master before? There is no such thing in my mind."
Li Qingshan couldn't help asking: "Then what's in your mind now?"
Taiming looked at him straight and said: "You suddenly appeared in my mind just now. This new memory tells me that you are my enemy. , you tricked me here to kill me, but you thought that if I stayed here alone, I might be killed to silence me, so you spared my life and wanted me to help you, and then find a way to kill me later."
Li Qingshan was angry: "Do you believe it? You are still looking for trouble with me at this time, right?"
Taiming smiled and said, "Of course I don't believe it. It's just that I can't think of a solution for the time being, why don't we die here together?"
Li Qingshan felt that he was testing him, grabbed his collar and shook him: "If you want to die, go by yourself! I'm not like you, even if I really want to I will never die here at their hands! You have no idea how ugly that is!"
Taiming took his hand off his clothes: "I know you don't care what happens after you die."
Li Qingshan was speechless for a moment and took his hand back: "I'm too lazy to talk to you."
Taiming looked at the people who had surrounded them in a small space, smiled and said: "Actually, I suddenly remembered a spell, but I'm not sure if it can be used. You have to help me write it in front, otherwise it will be useless if I can't finish it."
Li Qingshan's eyes lit up: "Okay!"
