Cambridge, silent today
Several people sat together, and Wang Shitou and Qi Jing talked about the first time this word appeared.
After some discussion, they discovered that these two words would appear in every mission world, but why was it prey instead of hunter?
Shu Yan: "If you survive, you're prey. If you die, you're trash."
“…” Well said. Don’t say it next time.
Zhang Heqian: "Do you still remember Niu Azi?"
Ma Liangchen took a bag of melon seeds from the cupboard and considerately gave each person a handful: "Go on."
Zhang Heqian looked at the melon seeds in his hand and said, "I want the sour ones, not the plain ones."
“…”
Wang Shitou: "You've chosen it?"
Zhang Heqian pouted and ate plain melon seeds in a stoic voice, "Weren't you guys constantly questioning him before he died?"
Shi Yuncheng (click): "Aren't you talking nonsense? If you don't ask him, are you just going to look at him?"
Zhang Heqian scratched his head: "Didn't we just go to their room to take a look at it in the beginning?"
Ma Liangchen: "Speak to the point."
Zhang Heqian (knock knock): You guys kept asking him questions, and I was watching him the whole time. I saw the words on his ankle, but you guys were chatting away, so I didn't feel comfortable interrupting you.
Shu Yan peeled the melon seeds and gave them to Qi Jing: "And then?"
Several people were eagerly waiting for him to continue speaking. Zhang Heqian felt thirsty as he was talking. Seeing this, Ma Liangchen took a few bottles of drinks and distributed them to the people present.
After quenching his thirst, Zhang Heqian continued his story.
"When I saw it, the words were fading little by little. And have you forgotten something?"
Shu Yan: "If you die, you're just trash."
“…”Don’t be too persistent.
"So, living people all have this word on their wrists, and those who don't have it are dead."
Wang Shitou put the melon seed shell in his hand into Shi Yuncheng's hand, but then he thought something was wrong and took the melon seed shell back.
"OK, that's settled. Now let's explain why Gao Tian and the others' memories are wrong."
"Also, why are you so familiar with me?" Wang Shitou stared at Shi Yuncheng.
"Yes, you are like his family's nanny. You know his habits very well. And your answer was very vague when I asked you last time." Zhang Heqian cracked the melon seeds in his hand.
Ma Liangchen moved the trash can to the middle and put the sunflower seed shells in for them. "Let me make a bold guess. Here, no, everyone who comes here should have fake memories, just like Gao Tian and his group."
"For example, in my memory, I was a fitness coach, but in reality, I have nothing to do with this fitness coach. Just like Gao Tian and the others, I was a college student, but became a drug dealer and murderer."
Shi Yuncheng lowered his head. He had been chewing the melon seeds in his mouth for a long time. He didn't know whether to crack the melon seeds in his hand or not.
Ma Liangchen and Wang Shitou were both looking at Shi Yuncheng, while Qi Jing and Shu Yan were thinking about their own things, and Zhang Heqian was also looking up at the ceiling.
Silence is Cambridge tonight. Shi Yuncheng twisted the melon seed shells with his fingers, wondering whether he should throw this question to Qi Jing.
A door blocks out the outside noise. Old players are adapting well, but new players are still complaining.
The room was quiet, and all kinds of sounds outside were mixed together: a man's roar, a woman's crying, a child's silence, and the old man's helplessness.
No one knows why they came here, but everyone has the thought that they will never return. They feel that everything here is fake, even themselves.
