Chapter 183 The Terrifying Secrecy Mechanism
"The day of confinement is not a place where you can speak freely. Some things can be said, and some things cannot be said. Brother Mao, do you understand?" Luo Xi said at this time.
He felt that Brother Mao could understand what he meant.
Sure enough, Brother Mao was stunned, his expression changed, his lips moved, but he still held back and nodded.
However, it can be seen that the other party has an urgent desire to communicate.
In fact, the same goes for Luo Xi.
This time, relying on Lin Qiqi’s ability to connect the nightmares of three people, there were obviously many unexpected discoveries.
However, for safety reasons, Luo Xi did not plan to exchange this information directly with Brother Mao.
Even if you think your worries are unfounded, you must ensure safety. As the saying goes, careful sailing can sail a thousand years, not to mention that some things cannot tolerate the slightest negligence.
Because Luo Xi already knows something.
For example, this is not the first time that he has become an amnesiac. In other words, it is not the first time that he has become an amnesiac. The number of times he has switched between the two identities may be more and more frequent than he imagined.
Although Luo Xi is very confident in himself, he cannot rule out the possibility of capsizing in the gutter.
If some previous plans failed, one of the possible reasons is 'leakage'.
And I have always been a very careful person.
So, is there some kind of power that can monitor conversations between memory collectors?
It's not impossible.
Luo Xi discovered this when he was in the Sega apartment building.
Zhou Xinpeng, the administrator of the Sega Apartment Building at that time, was noticed by some force almost at the moment of the foul. Then Luo Xi witnessed an administrator being executed by the 'company'.
This is one of them.
There is also a more obvious 'hint'.
It’s ‘Lao Wang’ who has disappeared.
The administrator of the customer service outsourcing company's "Worker for a Day" scene. During the exchange after Lao Wang was found by him in a surprise attack, he clearly showed a kind of fear and fear of the unknown existence.
The other party is not afraid of doing the wrong thing, but is very concerned about 'saying the wrong thing'.
There were even some words that Lao Wang seemed to be saying to someone on purpose.
Because of this, Luo Xi knew that there might be someone who could listen to the conversations of the memory collectors during the day of confinement, and it was likely to belong to the 'company'.
As for what Brother Mao is going to say, it is most likely related to his nightmare.
However, there is a premise here. Brother Mao fell into a coma due to other reasons, and even caused damage to his soul. It was just that Lin Qiqi borrowed [Nightmare] to forcibly connect the souls of the three people in a dream. Together.
There is only one purpose for doing this, to wake up Brother Mao.
Because if you don’t do this, Brother Mao may lose all his memories, or even go completely crazy, and even the restart mechanism on the day of imprisonment cannot restore it.
Ke Lan said a similar situation. There was a man who recalled something and Mao Ge's situation was almost the same, that is, he suddenly seemed to recall something, then he bleed from all his orifices, and finally, he became a complete madman, even imprisoned. Even after restarting, it cannot be restored.
Since we have learned from the past, it never hurts to be careful.
Because Luo Xi suspected that the memory collector Ke Lan mentioned, like Brother Mao, might have recalled memories that he shouldn't have recalled due to some accident.
These memories were ‘taboo’ on the day of confinement.
Making people's souls damaged and driven crazy is a secrecy mechanism.
Based on this, Luo Xi decided to adopt another method of communication.
"Qiqi, how are you?" He glanced at Lin Qiqi next to him.
Although the latter looked pale and looked very tired, he still shook his head: "I'm fine!"
"So, how much do you remember about the dream?" Luo Xi continued to ask.
Lin Qiqi smiled: "All!"
"Very good, I want to talk to Brother Mao, can your card ring ability help us?" Luo Xi knew that Lin Qi Qi can use the ability of the soul peeper to communicate with himself directly through his thoughts, but he is not sure whether the other party can allow him to communicate with a third party in the same way.
"I'll give it a try!" Lin Qiqi was extremely capable and never talked nonsense.
Especially Luo Xi’s request. If she can do it, she will definitely do it. If she can’t do it, she will try her best to do it.
Lin Qiqi first summoned the card book, took out two cards to activate, and then put two fingers on the foreheads of Luo Xi and Mao Ge respectively.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Okay, three-way call, but don't take more than two minutes." After Lin Qiqi finished speaking, Luo Xi immediately heard Lin Qiqi's voice in her mind.
"Let's get started, what we are thinking and saying, the three of us can hear each other."
Luo Xi didn't ask why it couldn't be more than two minutes, since Lin Qiqi said so , then just follow her rules.
"Brother Mao, I went to your dream. It should be a nightmare formed by your memory, but I suspect that it is what really happened. In 2049, maybe before March, Swallow Whale City, Fusheng Residential Building, 14th floor, Room 1404. At that time, the city was in chaos. Chaos, and you were talking to a woman, probably your wife, and the content of the conversation was that you were applying for a certain qualification, but you needed to queue up. Later, you applied for a digital card. In addition, I also heard about the disaster and the Earth."
Luo Xi quickly threw out the keywords he had mastered.
These still need Mao Ge, the memory owner, to answer and integrate them.
"Let me interject, I seem to have recalled some things, but it seems to be in a weird room. I seem to see the starry sky through the glass, and the time is" Lin Qiqi said at this time , but before she finished speaking, Luo Xi interrupted: "The time is after 2057 Before or after?"
Lin Qiqi was obviously stunned, and then her voice sounded: "It is 2050, it seems that such a year has flashed by, but my memory is very vague. I can't even tell if it's a dream or something that really happened "
"Luo Xi, Luo Xi is so amazing. He can actually hear sounds without speaking. Wait, why do sounds appear when I think about them? Hey, I seem a little hungry. I should go talk to Fatty Qian. Let's go eat together. No, what should I say? I'm so embarrassed. Broken, why are you like this? Luo Xi, where did you find such a beautiful girl? It's over, my heart is coming out, I have to calm down, calm down, calm down, don't think about anything." Brother Mao's voice sounded, but he was obviously not ready yet He is so adapted to communicating with his soul that his voice suddenly comes out and chatters endlessly.
"Brother Mao, focus on my problem." Luo Xi had to interrupt the other person's random thoughts loudly.
"Okay!" Brother Mao took a deep breath: "You're right, I don't know why these weird memories came up. It should be when I watched Xiao Guo playing games, it brought back some memories for me, because I remember when I was in school, I also played the game "Four Clans Hegemony", and the memory fragments that appeared together at that time These memories are like water spurting from a burst faucet, which cannot be blocked. In fact, I thought the blood vessels in my head had burst because I had a terrible headache at the time."
"So , are you not sure whether those memories are real?" Luo Xi once again stopped the other party from thinking.
“Yes, I’m not sure, but it does seem to be true.”
“So in my memory, where are you in the application list for that qualification? To be precise. ”
“1513, I remember it should be.”
"It's indeed 1513!" Luo Xi's voice was very sure this time.
“How are you sure?” Brother Mao was a little confused.
“If it were just pure fantasy and dreaming, you wouldn’t be so sensitive to numbers, but you are very concerned about this queue position, and even formed some kind of subconscious obsession, and after the memory is transformed into a nightmare , from your door to the street, there are exactly 1513 of your bodies. They have been queuing up, but the queue has never moved. So you apply for another thing called a digital card. What is that? "
This time Brother Mao was confused, and he himself He didn't remember this because he didn't see the humanoid bodies he was lining up outside the door.
As for digital cards.
"I remember giving up the body, yes, giving up the body, because the number of places to board the ship is limited, or it is simply impossible to let everyone on board. The so-called queuing is just a method of delaying to stabilize people's hearts, but, This is naked deception."
Mao Ge obviously integrated these memory fragments under the guidance of Luo Xi.
"Digital card is a person's digital life backup, a kind of high technology. By the way, we have developed very fast in those years, unimaginably fast." Mao Ge's tone changed, he seemed Keep digging into those memories.
“Disaster has come. If you want to escape, the only way to survive is to get on the boat, but only a few people can get on the boat. I have been waiting for three years. Although I know that I will never be able to wait, I still hold on to the boat. A trace of unrealistic extravagance, ah." Brother Mao covered his head with his hands again at this time.
Something is wrong with him again.
Blood oozed from his nostrils and ears again.
Luo Xi reacted very quickly. He interrupted the soul conversation, stepped forward directly, reached out and hit Brother Mao hard on the neck.
The latter fainted directly.
"That's it for now!" Luo Xi said. Obviously, this kind of digging into forbidden memories is a very dangerous thing.
If you are not careful, your soul will be damaged and you will become an idiot.
Brother Mao’s situation once again proves that this is a special confidentiality mechanism.
Although Luo Xi knew these memories, the reason he was able to escape unscathed was that these memories were not his, and he could not extract the corresponding content from his own memory. It's like an irrelevant person, listening to another person telling some stories that I don't know whether they are true or false.
So the confidentiality mechanism of the day of confinement is ineffective for him.
So, is this a coincidence, or is it some kind of deliberate decision?
As for Lin Qiqi, her situation is even more special.
Although Brother Mao's memory also resonated with her, it was obvious that Lin Qiqi was not affected, perhaps because she is a 'soul peeper' and has a strong defense against souls.
This defensive ability may offset part of the confidentiality mechanism of taboo memories.
"Don't think about this matter for the time being, just treat it as a nightmare." Luo Xi warned.
Lin Qiqi nodded. It could be seen that she was also aware of the deep horror of this matter, so her expression was very solemn.
"As for Brother Mao, I have to think of another way." Luo Xi had a headache. Lin Qiqi was a soul peeper. She had some means of self-protection and defense, but Brother Mao didn't.
If he wakes up and continues to dig out those forbidden memories, he will most likely be turned into a complete madman by the confidentiality mechanism of the day of confinement.
