Doomsday Wonderland

"My world...has ended?" Qiao Yuansi turned his head and murmured as he looked at the cars still roaring past on the highway.

At least what she saw was not even remotely similar to the end-of-life scenes depicted in movies or novels: traffic rules still govern the road, and the display screen ahead to detect vehicle speed is also working as usual, indicating that the power system is intact. ; There was no fire, no smoke, no ambulance sirens, and no calls for help.

"It's a bit different." The young man followed her gaze and obviously thought of the same thing, and said, "I thought I was lucky at first. I could randomly teleport into a place six months before the end of the world. What about the world?”

This sentence itself was enough to generate a hundred more questions; but Qiao Yuansi bit his lip and didn't ask any of them. The young man outside the car laughed when he saw this and said, "Forget it, I have no obligation to convince you. Transformers are everywhere. When you see them again, remember to pretend you can't see them. I'm leaving, wish you well-"

When he said this, he stood up straight from outside the car. Qiao Yuansi reacted suddenly, quickly unlocked the car, and shouted out the window: "Get in the car!"

The young man paused and bent down again. His clear eyes, slightly widened in confusion, made him look a bit like a small animal.

"...Aren't you afraid that I'm a lunatic?"

"You knocked down a policeman. You can't continue to wander outside." Qiao Yuansi looked up at the rearview mirror, stretched out his arm to open the passenger door for him, and urged: "Come up quickly, I'm afraid Others have noticed us."

The young man seemed not to have expected her to have such an attitude and laughed. Seeing that he was motionless, Qiao Yuansi became a little anxious. He spoke faster and said, "Whether it's the end of the world or not, social rules are obviously still in operation. You saved me, and I can't let you get caught for this. You Can you get in the car quickly?"

"Okay, okay, got it,"

The young man still had a half-smile on his lips and cheeks, as if he didn't think her worries were serious at all. He walked around the front of the car and opened the passenger door. As soon as the door opened, the sea breeze outside the car suddenly rushed in, and fell into the seat together with his body, as if it also brought in a part of the salty, blue, and free sea.

Qiao Yuansi was startled for a moment, then looked back and started the car again.

She looked around - outside, the patrolman was still lying face down on the ground. He had not yet woken up from his coma, and she could not see what his face looked like now. She didn't dare to think any more, bypassed the patrolman, and quickly got back on the road. She kept scanning the rearview mirror as she drove, for fear of seeing a police car chasing after her.

"I'm a little worried, maybe a passing car has already called the police," she explained to herself as she felt the young man glance at her several times. "We didn't waste a long time just now, did we? But a few words should take less than two minutes."

"Aren't you worried about the end of the world and shapeshifters, but about this?" The young man in Yu Guang looked a little bit amused.

"It's precisely because of what you said to me that I'm even more worried." Qiao Yuansi accelerated his speed, leaving several cars behind him, and said, "If this place is still the same as before, then even if It’s not a big deal if you were caught. I can prove that you were trying to save me, you can find a defense lawyer, you can even pay money for bail... everything can be done according to normal procedures, and there will be no personal harm to you."

However, the world is obviously no longer the same. Transformers are everywhere, and it is impossible for just one law enforcement officer to become a so-called "fallen species"; when the other mutants realize the real reason why the patrolman was attacked, normal legal procedures will not be able to protect him.

The young man also understood what she meant, but seemed a little surprised. He said "Oh" and was quiet for a while before saying: "...So you believed me so quickly?"

Qiao Yuansi is a person trained in scientific thinking, which makes her less likely to rashly resist denial when faced with unknown things. But she glanced at the young man in the passenger seat and said, "I won't draw this conclusion yet."

He didn't seem to care whether she believed him or not. He shrugged and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm not in a hurry. My name is Sakura Mizugan, what's yours?"

Call it strange, but if you consider that this is the name of a person from another world, it doesn't seem strange - after all, she can't even tell what race the other person is.

Qiao Yuansi reported his name and asked him to explain all the reasons from the beginning: what is going on in the doomsday world, what the fallen species are, and who he is. After this narration, the amount of information is not small, and it is not easy to say it clearly and comprehensively, but Sakura Mizugan did it in a few words.

Although he explained clearly, Qiao Yuansi did not dare to say how much he truly accepted and believed. She just listened attentively while driving; while listening, she turned her eyes and found that Sakura Mizugan actually stretched out a hand towards her cheek.

Qiao Yuansi was so surprised that he almost crashed the entire car into the lane next to him and shouted, "What are you doing?"

Sakura Mizugan was also startled by her: "I just looked at your face -"

"Then what are you doing?" Qiao Yuansi was frightened ever since he was caught by the patrolman.

Sakuramizugan pointed to his cheek and said, "I told you not to be afraid. The area on your face where you were scratched has been red, and it's getting redder and redder."

When Qiao Yuansi finally got off the highway and found a chance to look at her face carefully, she turned the mirror down and was shocked: several thick blood-red scratches crisscrossed across her cheeks, from the corners of her eyes. It extended to the chin; even though nearly half an hour had passed, the color was not light, but getting darker and darker, almost purple. There were even blood spots floating around the scratches. At a glance, it was shocking.

"When he scratched my face, he used very strong force. One finger dug into the corner of my eye, as if he wanted to pick off my face." She parked the car on the side of the road and murmured: "It's just that the skin is not there." Damn, I didn’t expect it to happen..."

Sakura Mizugan waved to her, motioning for her to put her face over.

Qiao Yuansi looked at him and hesitated for a moment, bit his lip, and turned his head towards him.

Sakura Mizugan came closer, her face slightly heated by his breath; as soon as she met the other person's eyes, she turned her gaze away slightly - his slightly blue eyes were soaked in the cold snow-white When there is no expression on the face, it seems to be carrying the oppressive coldness of the high mountain snowfield. Although it is clear and clear, it makes people dare not look too much. In an indescribable nervousness, she clutched the fabric of her pants, waiting for slightly warm fingers to press her cheeks.

Yet he didn't touch her face. From the corner of her eye, she could see Ying Shui'an's hand that was about to be raised suddenly put down again; after staring at her for a while, his brows became more and more frowned, and his expression became more and more serious.

Qiao Yuansi's palms were filled with cold sweat. He finally couldn't help but sit up straight. He turned to him and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

Ying Shui'an looked at her fingers that had not touched her, and twisted her fingertips a few times, as if she wanted to shake off the non-existent dust on her fingers.

"How far is it from your home?" He turned away and said, "I think it's best for you to go back now."

... Judging from his tone, he almost said, "Eat something good now."

Qiao Yuansi took a shaky breath, feeling that his hands and feet were cold, and he didn't know how to restart the car. She did not go back to the highway, but drove forward along the city streets; after walking for a while, she broke the silence in the car: "You can just say, I can bear it."

Sakura Mizugan glanced at her. "Well, you should be about to become a fallen species."

Too straight.

Qiao Yuansi gripped the steering wheel so tightly that his joints turned white. "Tell me more details...how do you know?"

"The doomsday world, as the name suggests, is generally a human society that has been destroyed. Most of the human beings are buried together, and only a small part can survive. Among this small part, some develop into fallen species, and some develop into Evolutionaries - but this is obviously not the case in this world."

Sakura Mizugan spoke slowly on purpose, and Qiao Yuanji realized it. She was very grateful, because even describing her current state as six gods and no masters was too optimistic; having someone by her side talking about it was equivalent to providing her with a sense of order in the chaos of uncertainty - as if He fell into a fast-flowing river, but he caught a rope.

"I don't know why. Everything in this world runs normally and there are very few dead people. However, the degenerate species with deformed faces account for the vast majority of the population. So I have been secretly observing them in the past few days."

When he mentioned shapeshifters, he used "them" instead of "them" - when talking about the fallen species in other worlds, Sakuramizugan used "them". Qiao Yuansi didn't know what this difference meant, but she silently made a note in her mind.

"I found that UU Reading www.uukanshu.net If you are a normal person and your face does not deform, then you have two possibilities, either you can see them deformed, or you can't see them deformed. For those who can't see it, If they are normal people, the degenerates will not bother them at all, and they will still work and live around those normal people as before... Because as time goes by, those normal people who cannot see the deformation will naturally become deformed themselves. It began to gradually deform, as if it had been subtly affected. I can't say how long this time will take, because I have only been here for four days. When I came, the few examples I observed were probably It’s already in the process of transformation.”

Qiao Yuansi let out a breath and fixed his gaze on the road ahead. The light turned green, and a little girl in school uniform put ice cream into her mouth while crossing the zebra crossing. Every time she opened her mouth, her face disappeared into the black hole of her mouth. When she closed her mouth, her facial features slowly fell back to their original places.

"If you can see it and let them know that you can see the deformation, that would be terrible." Sakura Mizugan was also looking at the little girl, and said softly without changing her expression: "Having a pair of abnormal ones" The ability to identify itself means that you can no longer naturally transform into one of them. The primary goal of the fallen species seems to be to turn more people into their companions. When this cannot be guaranteed, That's why they start killing people. When the patrolman scratched your face, he must have used some method to transmit this deformation to you like a virus."
