Pollution throughout the territory

There was no feeling or sound of footsteps on the floor.

As he got closer, the music in the room became clearer, and at the same time, Xia Ren could vaguely hear people talking to each other inside.

Two girls, one's voice was somewhat familiar, while the other's voice was completely unfamiliar.

His hand touched the door and then gently pushed it open. Even though he knew it was a dream, he still couldn't help but feel nervous.

The door was pushed halfway open, and he was finally able to see the scene inside. However, at this moment, the white light on the ceiling came into his eyes, expanding and getting brighter until it occupied the entire field of vision...

Xia Ren woke up.

The dazzling sunlight hit his face, and he was dazzled when he opened his eyes.

"Just a little bit."

He was a little unwilling.

It was obvious that I had seen a trace of the outline, but it just cut off at this critical point, just like watching a video on the computer while masturbating, and the plot was about to reach its climax, and there was a sudden power outage.

With a little boredom, he washed his face, then locked the room and went out.

After simply finding a small shop to have breakfast, Xia Ren planned to go home directly to have a showdown with her sister today.

You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it for the rest of your life. At worst, you can find a reason to excuse it, and then move out openly. You can't stay away from home and see Xia Qiudong for the rest of your life. Moreover, if the other party thinks that you are really dead, take away his household registration Log out. In today's world where technology is highly developed and everything requires personal information, without an ID card, it would be difficult for him to book a ride-hailing service online.

After walking along the memory for less than half an hour, Xia Ren successfully returned to the community where he lived before.

What was a little surprising was that it was obviously Sunday, and my sister was on holiday at this time, so she would be sleeping in at home, but no matter how hard she knocked on the door, there was no response.

No one is at home.

On second thought, maybe it was because of her disappearance that she might be looking for him outside.

Xia Ren had no choice but to wait outside the door. Just as he was about to take out his cell phone and call his sister, he bumped into a neighbor upstairs.

"Who are you?"

The middle-aged woman who came back with a vegetable basket saw Xia Ren standing at the door, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.

Although we live in the same community, we usually either stay at home or go out to work and rarely see each other, so even if we are upstairs and downstairs, it is normal for us not to be familiar with each other.

"Auntie, do you know where the people who live here have gone?" Xia Ren asked.

"You mean that woman, right?" The middle-aged woman looked at him and suddenly asked, "What's your relationship with her?"

Seeing that the other party's reaction was a little strange, Xia Ren kept an eye on it and said, "We are friends."

"How could my friend not know?" the middle-aged woman muttered softly.

"what do you know?"

Xia Ren looked curious.

The middle-aged woman looked around to make sure there was no one, and then said: "There is a death in her family. It seems to be her brother. When she came back the day before yesterday, she was crying. She couldn't walk. It was her colleagues who helped her in." The whole community knows that he belongs to the house. In my impression, his younger brother seems to be in his early twenties. He is a handsome young man. He seems to be about the same height as you. He just doesn’t have a job and stays at home all day. Although he doesn’t live up to expectations, he will be gone if he says no. , or...sigh."

Xia Ren was confused.

Although his symptoms were more serious, he ran out of the hospital anyway. Without seeing the body, he should have thought of missing first. According to my sister’s character, she definitely wants to see people alive and dead bodies. She It is impossible to simply judge that he has passed away.

There must be something wrong with this.

"Then where did she go today?"

The middle-aged woman thought for a while and said uncertainly: "I saw her when I was going out. Judging from the direction she left, she should be going to the crematorium."

"What are you doing at the crematorium?"

Xia Ren's head was filled with questions.

The middle-aged woman glared: "What else can I do? Just collect her brother's ashes."

"Ashes..." Xia Ren was dumbfounded, "How is it possible that her brother has a body?"

"The person who died of illness didn't disappear. Why is there no body?" The middle-aged woman felt that he was sick and was unwilling to say anything more, so she hurried upstairs.

"I was cremated?"

Xia Ren stood there and pinched his arm in disbelief.

Well, it does hurt.

Then here comes the problem.

Where do corpses come from for cremation in summer, autumn and winter? Didn't anyone notice that something was wrong?

Suddenly, a terrifying thought arose from the bottom of his heart.

"Am I really Xia Ren?"

He began to doubt his identity.

Thinking back carefully, there are indeed many doubts. When he woke up on the street the day before yesterday, he was completely confused and lost most of his memory. Then Zhao Mingyue appeared and took him to Jingwan Community.

Mrs. Liu later confirmed that she only saw herself that evening and did not see Zhao Mingyue.

The examination results given by the system showed that he, like Mrs. Liu, was a type of infectious agent.

A type of infectious agent...

[Human beings exposed to pollutants will have their minds and bodies distorted, and infected bodies will be born with the help of the host after death...]

[Optional exchange item: Increase own pollution value by 5/100...]

"Am I really an infected person?"

This result was unacceptable to him, because it meant that the real Xia Ren was dead, and he was just an unknown creature that appeared with his memory for no reason.

In the impression that there were two crematoriums in Jupiter City, Xia Qiudong would definitely choose the nearest one. He rushed downstairs, eager to verify his conjecture. However, before he could walk out of the community, he saw a familiar figure in the distance. figure.

It's my sister, she's back!

Feeling a little panicked for a moment, Xia Ren wanted to go up to him and explain the situation, but he subconsciously hid in the pavilion on the side.

She was holding something in her hand, and there was a woman beside her who was supporting her shoulders. This woman Xia Ren also knew, and she was a colleague with whom her sister had a good relationship.

As they got closer, Xia Ren turned his back and leaned against the pillar, his heart pounding.

He saw that although it was wrapped in cloth, what Xia Qiudong was holding was an urn.

What should I do?

How should I say that I am not dead? How should I explain that what you are holding in your hands may not be me? How should I make you believe in such a bizarre thing?

"Xiaoxia, it's been two days. You have to be more open-minded. Your body won't be able to bear it if you don't eat..."

The conversation gradually faded away, and Xia Ren never had the courage to come out and reveal his identity.

He seemed to have lost his soul and sat slumped in the hot pavilion.

Xia Ren is dead, at least as far as everyone knows, he is dead.

No identity, no relatives, no friends, this is the situation he will face, or is currently facing.

"System, am I dead?"

It was the only one he could ask.

However, all he received in response was despairing silence.
