I'm trapped in a cube

"The last time I came here, there was no such dazzling starlight... At that time, although there were many stars in the sky, the starlight could not reach the forest, and could only shine in a little through the gaps in the ancient trees."

"You said, if the Eye of the Stars had already appeared when humans first set foot on this sky island a long time ago, then why didn't this starlight forest exist when we installed the beacon?" Zhou Chao said in confusion.

"What was it like here at that time?" Li Luo asked.

"There were many trees and many stars in the sky, that's all. We walked into this forest and installed the beacon. During this time, we encountered some attacks from animated creatures, but we defeated them smoothly..." Zhou Chao recalled and talked about the experience of the investigation team when they first entered the central forest.

After installing the beacon, the investigation team quickly left here, and Zhou Chao fled the central area alone and went to the edge of the sky island.

"Why do you think they are fake?" Li Luo asked in a low voice.

"I..." Zhou Chao paused: "I'm afraid you don't believe it, but I just feel that they are fake. This is intuition."

"Although I have joined the investigation team for a short time, I have experienced many adventures with my teammates. We have been to many sky islands together and encountered more critical situations. They are like relatives to me."

"But now they in front of us don't feel like relatives."

"They are like puppets speaking familiar words, just puppets playing relatives."

"I can feel that there is no me in their "hearts."

Speaking of this, Zhou Chao paused and sighed.

"I don't know if I can believe this sixth sense."

Zhou Chao was very entangled. He knew that this strange sixth sense was brought by this starlight forest, but this feeling kept reminding him that these familiar teammates in front of him were not "real".

"Do you think I should believe this feeling?"

Zhou Chao looked at Li Luo and asked entangledly.

Li Luo did not answer directly, but asked: "What else?"

"What else?"

"Besides the heart, what else do you feel? The heart can be expressed through the body. Since the sixth sense cannot be trusted, you can use your eyes to see, your ears to listen, smell their smell, touch them..."

Li Luo's words made Zhou Chao wake up immediately.

"Yes!"

He looked at the team in front of him and suddenly thought of something.

Then he mustered up his courage, walked forward, and came to the captain's side.

"Captain, aren't you walking at the end?"

"Am I not already walking at the end?" The captain asked in confusion.

Zhou Chao shook his head: "No, I mean walking behind everyone."

Zhou Chao pointed at himself and Li Luo.

Seeing this, the captain was stunned: "It's okay, aren't you going to discuss things? I won't bother you."

"Okay." Zhou Chao nodded, stepped back, and returned to Li Luo's side.

After coming back, he remained silent, as if he was recalling something.

After a while, he spoke again.

"That's not the captain..."

"Why?" Li Luo asked. She also heard the conversation between Zhou Chao and the captain, and didn't think there was anything strange.

"Because the captain said that he would not let anyone go behind..."

Zhou Chao and Li Luo talked about a past event.

...

That happened when Zhou Chao just joined the Sky Island Investigation Team.

At that time, Zhou Chao was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. He often did some dangerous things, so he was ordered by the captain to stay by his side and not run around.

"You stay by my side, don't be curious about everything you see, it's very dangerous!" The captain warned him earnestly.

But Zhou Chao didn't understand the captain's thoughts at that time, and felt that this would limit his performance.

They were exploring a dangerous new sky island at the time. There was a strange phenomenon on that island-objects would disappear inexplicably.

Their task was to build a beacon and investigate this strange phenomenon at the same time.

However, when they built the beacon and even debugged the signal, they did not encounter the disappearance incident.

However, things were not that simple. Someone in the team soon found that his backpack was much lighter.

He opened his backpack to check and found that many things had disappeared inexplicably.

What was even more terrifying was that he couldn't remember what that thing was.

"Search your transaction list and the material distribution record to see what was lost." After the captain learned about this, he immediately issued an order.

At the same time, he ordered all team members to check whether the things they carried were lost.

Soon, by comparing various records, the team members found the corresponding missing items.

Canned food, drinks, observation equipment, weapons and ammunition... everything.

Not only that, someone lost something very important.

"My relic is lost!"

He saw a relic in the distribution record, but it was not in his backpack, and he couldn't remember it until he saw the record, and then he realized what he had lost.

After learning about this situation, the captain immediately understood that this kind of disappearance is not only for objects, but can even target the memory of the owner of the object.

"It's like stealing an object and stealing the memory, so that people can't find it at all..."

The captain thought for a moment and began to ask the team members where the lost items were placed.

The team members' answers were all kinds of strange, in backpacks, pockets, insoles...

There was even a team member who answered: "Captain, my underwear is lost..."

"Underwear? Did you put it in the backpack?"

"No, I wore it on my body. I just felt a little cold... I touched it for a long time before I found something wrong." The team member scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

Listening to these strange answers, the captain finally found a common point.

He immediately asked the team members: "Do you have anything that is placed in a visible place, but lost?"

The team members looked at each other and shook their heads.

Now, the captain finally confirmed his guess:

"Only things that are invisible to the sight will disappear!"

Whether it is a backpack, a pocket, or even underwear, they are all invisible to the sight.

Thinking of this, the captain immediately asked the team members to release the monitoring equipment, fly high in the sky, and watch the entire team.

He had a bad premonition in his heart.

The captain took out the electronic screen and trembled as he opened the list of team members, naming each place one by one.

"Here!"

"Here!"

"Here!"

With the response, the captain felt relieved.

However, when the last name was called, there was no response.

The captain looked at the unfamiliar name and trembled as he opened the information.

"Li Mingfu, 52 years old, has been a member of the Sky Island Investigation Team for 30 years, responsible for data recording and editing..."

"Relics: None."

"Specialties: None."

The information in his hand was extremely unfamiliar, and the captain had no memory of such a person in the team.

"Do you know Li Mingfu?" He asked the team members who looked at each other in bewilderment.

"No."

"No..."

"Sounds a bit familiar, as if it's the naughty kid next door to me..."

The team members talked at once, and had no impression of the team member named "Li Mingfu".

It was as if he had never existed.
