Chapter 371 The Disappearing Videotape
Just when Sun Hang wanted to check the remains of these strange objects for the last time, he unexpectedly discovered that the remains were gradually fading and becoming transparent... and finally disappeared completely from his eyes.
This is not a normal behavior in the process of the dissipation of strange objects. When this happens, it can only mean one thing - the pause of the video tape has been canceled!
"No!" Sun Hang immediately ran towards the exit of the computer room. The scavenger girl was startled by him and quickly followed Sun Hang.
Before she could ask Sun Hang why he ran away, several silver-white arcs of electricity flashed around Sun Hang, and then he disappeared completely.
……
Underground commercial street, first floor, video store.
Sun Hang felt a little unhappy when he looked at the player that was turned on and the missing video tape.
Obviously, after he got rid of the strange thing in the underground computer room just now, "someone" took the videotape away.
Not only that, the guy who took the videotape didn't even leave any traces at the scene. Sun Hang checked the player carefully, and there were only his own and the fingerprints of the deceived scavenger on it.
There were no new footprints on the ground, and even the thickness of the surrounding dust and the scratched marks were exactly the same as Sun Hang's original memory.
"The person who took the video tape...shouldn't be a human being, right?" Sun Hang thought. He tried to use his ability to restore what happened in the video store a few minutes ago, but this time, his ability to have everything come true did not work. Didn't work.
In other words, the image it restored was not what really happened in the video store - the paused picture suddenly went out, and then the player's card slot flicked open, leaving nothing inside.
The tape never appeared on the screen from beginning to end.
"It can't be that the world has evaporated, right?"
Sun Hang stood there thinking for nearly five minutes before the scavenger girl ran to the video store out of breath.
"What...what happened?"
"The videotape is gone." Sun Hang said.
"How could it be...could it be...that someone came in just now?"
"It doesn't look like it's man-made." Sun Hang shook his head, "I'm more inclined to think it was done by something strange."
"A weird thing? If it's a weird thing, wouldn't you be able to detect the breath or something like that...?"
"The other party used the power of the video tape to erase its own existence." Sun Hang sighed, "It can't be traced at all."
"Huh?"
"Forget it, let's go." Sun Hang checked the TV and player one last time, and then walked outside, "About the weird thing on the video tape, don't tell the people at the institute. If anyone asks, Just let him come to me.”
The scavenger girl nodded immediately.
...When the two of them walked to the exit of the shopping mall, the team sent by the institute was already waiting on the roadside. Several fully armed field operators were standing guard with guns in hand, and a familiar figure stood guard. Beside the car, he waved to Sun Hang.
The leader of this team is Jiang Yu. Although she does not have enough actual combat experience, under the current situation where Tianfu City is in short supply of manpower, Jiang Yu, as a monster hunter, has to force herself to move quickly. Grow up and become a character who can stand alone.
Yang Qi sent her to lead the team to carry out this less dangerous task, probably with the purpose of training her.
"Her ears were attacked by a strange sound wave and she was temporarily deafened." Sun Hang pointed to the scavenger girl aside, "I did a rough inspection and found that there was only organic damage. Considering the medical conditions at the institute, It should be able to cure her... She can be regarded as assisting me in the operation just now. If she has any request, as long as it is not too excessive, try to satisfy her."
"Okay... what about you?" Jiang Yu nodded, "Are you really not going back with us?"
"No, there are still some things to deal with. Director Yang and I have already talked about it." Sun Hang said, "By the way, how is Yang Lian's situation?"
"It's hard to say... After she was taken to the institute, she found a room and locked herself up, refusing to communicate with anyone. Even when Yang Qi went to talk to her, she remained silent." Jiang Yu's eyes A flash of worry flashed through, "What happened to her?"
"If you kill hundreds of people with your car in one breath, you probably need time to slow down." Sun Hang said, "Even if those people have turned into monsters, at least from the outside, they are no different from ordinary people. What a difference.”
Jiang Yu tried to imagine that scene, and his face suddenly looked a little pale.
"By the way, did that superhuman ask for anything?"
Jiang Yu shook his head: "She has been handed over to a professional interrogation team, but before I set off, there was no news from there."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Okay, that's it." Sun Hang said, "This little girl will be left to you. If she is willing, I think she can be recruited to join the field department... Although she is a little timid, she still has abilities. ”
This sentence is not that Sun Hang is specifically praising her. With the age of this scavenger girl, she can survive alone in Tianfu City shrouded in eternal night for such a long time, which is a glimpse of her ability.
Unlike those citizens who live in high-rise residential buildings and receive government relief supplies, the living environment of these scavengers is closer to the natural world where the jungle eats the strong - "people eat people" is never an exaggerated rhetoric.
"Okay." Jiang Yu responded.
After watching the motorcade leave, Sun Hang opened the navigation on his phone and entered the name of a property.
The name of this property was told to Sun Hang by the scavenger girl. It was a commercial housing complex under construction. The main body was nearly completed. However, the arrival of the eternal night, coupled with the plummeting housing prices in Tianfu City, made the developer of this property Directly declared bankrupt, this property naturally fell into an indefinite shutdown state.
Not long after the eternal night fell, this place became a gathering place for vagrants, scavengers and some gangs.
Although it is an unfinished building, the location of this property is not very remote. It is less than fifteen kilometers away from the most prosperous business district in the city center, and the transportation is very convenient - across this long distance, Sun Hang is I saw a lot of cars parked on the road outside the construction site. One thing about these cars is that most of the windows are smashed, and there are various things with special meanings written on the cars with spray paint and markers. symbols and doodles.
There was no doubt that these cars were all stolen.
