Chapter 1502
Chapter 1502
On the first night in Neon, Deng Shentong and others took turns to work the night shift.
When Zhang Yi got up in the morning, they came to eat breakfast together and report what they observed last night.
The breakfast was very rich. Even outdoors, Zhang Yi never treated himself badly.
The best food and alcohol stoves for heating were carried with him, so he could eat fresh and delicious food.
On the other hand, Deng Shentong and others looked at the vacuum-packed military rations in their pockets and could only smile bitterly and shake their heads.
"Come and eat together!"
Zhang Yi generously called them to come and eat together, and Deng Shentong and others were of course happy to do so.
Everyone gathered together, and Zhang Yi even took out a luxurious long table and matching sofa chairs from the alien space and enjoyed breakfast elegantly.
It gave people the feeling that he was not doing a mission in a frozen and bitter cold environment, but was here for vacation.
"How was your observation last night?"
Zhang Yi stuffed a steaming crab roe bun into his mouth and ate it slowly, looking at Deng Shentong and Baili Changqing.
Baili Changqing said, "We watched all night yesterday and found something!"
"Those monsters wandered around Edo City, seemingly without any purpose, just strolling through the streets of the city. It was like patrolling the territory."
"And when the night was about to dawn," Baili Changqing lowered his voice and said as if he had seen a ghost, "They all disappeared suddenly! It was as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth, and all the ghosts and monsters were gone!"
Zhang Yi raised his head, and a ray of light bloomed in his eyes.
"You mean, suddenly, they all disappeared?"
That night, he saw so many strange things, so shadowy that he couldn't count them.
Such a large group of ghosts, spread all over Edo, suddenly disappeared, it didn't make sense no matter how you thought about it.
"Is it possible that they are all illusions?"
Bai Chunyu made such a guess.
"A nighttime illusion that disappears during the day. Or even someone's dream that ends when he wakes up?"
Everyone had various speculations, but no one could agree on one.
The only thing that was certain was that if you encountered these things at night, you could only run away.
Because they were simply not to be killed.
Zhang Yi put the last mouthful of soy milk into his mouth, then put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said: "I will go into Edo Castle to investigate again today! This time I will go directly to the Daliangdu Museum."
Deng Shentong said: "This may risk alerting the enemy."
"I will be careful."
Zhang Yi said lightly: "If the 500,000 people in the city are really puppets. Then our movements would have been discovered long ago!"
"So you must act in the area around me. In this way, if a battle breaks out, I can take you away as soon as possible."
Thinking of this possibility, Deng Shentong and his men were also horrified.
But they were determined to get the national treasures of this mission, so they nodded and decided to go into Edo Castle again to find out.
As the first ray of bleak sunlight emerged from the horizon, the fog in Edo Castle began to slowly dissipate.
And the Edo residents who had lost their ability to move regained their vitality one by one.
They seemed to have no perception of what had happened before, nor did they realize that they had become immobile puppets at night, and continued to move around in Edo with full spirits.
Everything was thriving.
If you hadn't seen the ghost scenes that happened at night, no one would have thought that this city had already been invaded by weirdness.
After observing for a while, Zhang Yi and others dressed up again and sneaked into Edo Castle.
There were about ten hours of daylight, and Zhang Yi was not in a hurry to go to the Daliangdu Museum.
He thought about it and came to the area he passed yesterday. The first stop was Akihabara, which was crowded with people.
The neon lights of the city were flashing brightly, and various game promotional photos and the cute image of the two-spined monkey appeared in the most conspicuous place of the building.
"Sir, Miss, welcome to the lovehouse! We have an underground idol performance here today!"
A maid ran over with a sweet smile on her face and handed Zhang Yi and others a flyer.
It said that there would be a performance by the underground idol Miss Teramon Dori today, and there was also a list of special meals and drinks for today.
Zhang Yi took the flyer, nodded slightly at her and walked forward.
The maid quickly turned her head and solicited other customers.
Walking on the streets of Akihabara, he saw a loving father and daughter. The father held his daughter's hand and looked down at her gently.
"Airi, what gift do you want today? Dad will buy it for you!"
"Really? Thank you, Dad! Airi loves Dad the most!"
...
On the other side,Mrs. Takayanagi, wearing a dark blue kimono, was buying her son his favorite new model.
The ambulance rushed over, Dr. Hirasaka was nervously rescuing the injured, and Miss Nanase, wearing a pink nurse uniform, put on an oxygen mask for the patient.
Zhang Yi watched all this coldly, while Zhou Ke'er's eyes were wide open.
"This... these..."
She lowered her voice and said to Zhang Yi: "Why do I feel like I have seen these things yesterday?"
"Yes, it is indeed a replay of yesterday."
Zhang Yi also whispered.
"These people, they are living in the same way. It's like a robot implanted with a specific program."
If it weren't for the second visit, he couldn't imagine such a scene.
Behind the seemingly harmonious Edo Castle, there are actually terrifying secrets.
"Are they... still alive?"
Zhou Ke'er's voice trembled when she said this.
How can a living person live like a machine?
But Zhang Yi said with certainty: "No, they are all still alive!"
He verified this yesterday, because he once cut open a boy's body with his own hands and watched his bright red blood flow out.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi suddenly raised his head, "Let's go to another place to have a look!"
He took Zhou Ke'er and Yang Xinxin to the dark, and after confirming that there was no one around, he activated his ability and shuttled to the place he had been to yesterday.
Soon after, he came to the residential area near the Edo TV Tower.
And found the one-family building yesterday.
Zhang Yi and the other two appeared directly at the door. After thinking for a while, Zhang Yi did not choose to knock on the door, but sneaked into the house directly.
Having been here yesterday, he was very familiar with the terrain. So he let Yang Xinxin and Zhou Ke'er stay in the courtyard, and he went into the room himself.
It was morning at this time, and Zhang Yi smelled the fragrance of food in his nose.
The sound of the boy and the girl talking came to his ears.
"Really, Yuuji! You said you would take me to the amusement park today, why did you change your mind at the last minute!"
"Sorry, Asuka. Lin-chan and Ai-chan kept pestering me, and I couldn't get away! Look--"
Zhang Yi poked his head out from the second floor and saw a scene of Shura Field happening in the living room on the first floor.
