The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 430 The familiar absurdity is back

The male protagonist anxiously looks for relevant clues through the computer. Whether it is the speed of keyboard tapping or the constantly moving mouse, they have become tools to express the tense atmosphere. Everyone in the studio can still feel the anxiety of a father.

The disappearance of a child is every parent's nightmare.

And the step-by-step progress of this movie adds horror to the nightmare.

This kind of horror may only be experienced by audiences like Zhang Qisheng who are already parents.

You never know your child. Children may have two faces in front of their parents, in front of other people, and in front of the Internet.

In the movie, the father finds himself in a completely unknown world. The more he investigates, the more frightened he is. Zhang Qisheng is also constantly shocked by what he sees.

Although there are only pages, pop-up windows, program boxes overlapping each other, and the movement of the mouse, Zhang Qisheng seems to have entered an adventure, and he can see a new world every step of the way.

On the screen, the father retrieved the password through a series of bewildering operations through guesswork and a doll-style email chain verification, logged into his daughter's social account and email, and carefully searched for any clues.

And then found another daughter who only exists on the Internet and is completely different from reality.

At the same time, it also showed Zhang Qisheng a lot of "human flesh search" and computer use skills, many of which he never realized in his life, and in the process gave him a thrilling thrill of peeping and discovering secrets.

The male protagonist Shun Teng Mogua not only discovered many social software and short video platform accounts used by his daughter, but also found that his daughter had been doing live broadcasts in a live broadcast software-a live broadcast with not many viewers, sharing life with strangers.

And as a father, he knew nothing about it.

Here, the father rediscovers his daughter's past and life, which is completely different from the real life on the Internet. On the other hand, the "mysterious disappearance of a female college student" has also rapidly fermented on the Internet and has become a hot topic of concern to many people.

Text or video bloggers, UP owners, and all kinds of people who eat melons have participated in this carnival.

Some videos say that most of these disappearance cases are caused by internal conflicts in the family. One stone caused a thousand waves, and the public opinion turned the finger on the male protagonist who is the father.

Some people criticized him as an unqualified father.

Some people even think that the mysterious disappearance of the female college student is the responsibility of the father.

[Usually we all know that such things are often committed by acquaintances, or even relatives. 】

The interview video of the male protagonist facing the reporter is constantly being used by netizens to try to find flaws and clues through micro-expressions, words or facial expressions.

Enthusiastic netizens turned into Internet detectives for a while. Articles, comments and even videos such as "Father Is a Murderer", "Love Killing", "Vendetta", "Trafficking" and even "Serial Murderer Comes Back" appeared on major websites with good reasons. on the forum.

More conspiracy theories and outlandish conjectures have also appeared on the Internet on a large scale.

It seems that the disappearance of the hero's daughter is a "werewolf killing" or some kind of "reasoning game" board that the melon-eaters participated in after being bored.

Afterwards, some classmates who were not familiar with the daughter who were contacted by the male protagonist also posted, replied, and even posted short videos on the forum under the name of "friends and girlfriends of the missing female college student".

Or the words are painful, or the voices are full of tears, attracting attention and traffic, and eating human blood.

There are also people who pretend to be murderers and post anonymously "she is here with me" for fear of chaos.

There is even a company that provides online funeral live broadcasts to the male lead, offering to provide the male lead with a free live broadcast of his daughter’s funeral service. During the live broadcast, the reward function can be enabled. According to the popularity of his daughter’s disappearance case, it will definitely be possible at that time. Earn a lot of money, the company doesn't need to share it, and the male lead doesn't need to pay any fees, it's just an advertisement.

All of these are perfectly displayed in the form of websites and videos through the computer desktop, through countless websites, search engines, etc., by the male protagonist.

The direction and speed of the mouse movement, the hesitation of pulling and clicking all represent the father's action state. It seems that the audience can directly experience the emotional changes of being a father.

An extremely familiar sense of absurdity rushed from the screen again.

The "Fuck Pig" incident in the first episode of the first season of "Black Mirror".

It is also the Internet public opinion triggered by the disappearance case, which triggered the enthusiasm of modern humans on the Internet, or the alienation of people and things on the Internet, so that the accumulation of bones is destroyed.

Now the first episode of "Black Mirror II" seems to have formed a certain echo, and even a stronger resonance, with the ground-breaking opening of "Black Mirror I" two years ago.

It seems to be a kind of tribute, which makes people regain the feeling of "Black Mirror" in an instant.

Although the broadcast format has changed to an online movie of more than 90 minutes, the pioneering and sharp emotional core has not changed.

But unlike the first season of "Black Mirror", the sequel after two years did not stop at the display of absurdity and black humor, and there are more ups and downs in the plot along with the expansion of the time.

The "reasoning carnival" of people eating melons on the Internet makes people feel ironic, but the male protagonist's real step-by-step digging into his daughter on the Internet makes the real case more confusing.

Reversed and reversed and reversed again, when the audience's appetite was at its highest, they suddenly shifted their attention again.

If the reasoning of netizens and even Internet mobs in the plot is the absurdity of the Internet carnival, then in front of the LCD screen, everyone in the viewing room followed the male protagonist to conduct a brain-burning real suspense case reasoning.

Zhang Qisheng was overwhelmed by a "Snowstorm Mountain Villa" reasoning that was as fast as a storm.

The male protagonist's daughter ran away from home, to committing suicide, and then to being relieved of suicide suspicion.

Suspicious people came into view one after another, and then were overthrown again. A certain classmate of the daughter pretended to be the real murderer on the Internet. , and even the male protagonist's younger brother has become a suspicious suspect one after another.

On the Internet, pieces of specious "evidence" were discovered. Whenever the audience thought that this might be the ultimate suspect, the plot would reverse again.

The plot reached its climax in a "confession video" that appeared on the Internet in a series of reversals.

"A video again?"

Zhang Qisheng recalled the kidnapping video after the disappearance of the girl in the first episode of "Black Mirror I", which was the key point and key point of the whole story.

Another video in this movie, will it be a key message to promote the development of the plot?Does the murderer have any other purpose?Or is it the daughter's self-directed and self-acted?
After the previous reversal, Zhang Qisheng, whose excitement level had dropped slightly, became nervous again.

The result made him a little disappointed, because this video is really a confession video.

A middle-aged man in his 40s with a rough dress and a beard confessed in the video that he had committed a crime because of a whim.

When the police found the address of the middle-aged man who posted the "confession video" and broke into his house, they found that the man had committed suicide by taking medicine, and blood was also found in the house. It was only the victim, and the body of the hero's daughter had not been found yet.

It seems that the disappearance of the hero's daughter has come to light.

Not only the voices in the media and the Internet think so, but even the hero accepts this reality in grief.

Just when he was about to turn off the computer desktop, the company that had "harassed" him once again, the company that provided the funeral live broadcast service and also received tips from netizens, sent him another spam advertisement, and the male protagonist clicked to close it impatiently.

But the mouse stopped.

The cursor landed on the tiny cross in the upper right corner of the advertisement pop-up window.

Zhang Qisheng could hear a short exclamation behind him.

In fact, his own heartbeat also accelerated, and an electric current surged in his body that excited the brain, and horror emerged again.

Zhang Qisheng might not have noticed it if he clicked the mouse directly to close it, but the cursor and the screen were still for a few seconds, accompanied by the sudden and sharp music, so that the audience's attention finally focused on the spam advertisement pop-up window.

In other words, it focused on the woman's profile picture on the advertisement pop-up window.

Obviously, this should be the avatar of a print advertisement, just like in an advertisement for real estate or health care products, next to the product or slogan, there will be one or two foreigners or locals, wearing white coats or suits and ties, one or two The image of a successful person in the business world, with a professional or sweet smile.

This woman also showed a sweet smile, as if she was the spokesperson of this funeral live broadcast product.

And his appearance is very similar to the avatar of a loyal fan who often communicates with and likes his daughter, which the hero found in a large number of live videos of his daughter.

And when on the computer desktop, the mouse quickly and anxiously opened the live broadcast software, entered the live broadcast history, found a video and clicked on it, and when the user with the account name "Fish and Chips" appeared in the lower right corner of the video, the whole Video paused.

The advertisement pop-up window and the video page are displayed on the computer desktop in parallel.

It's not like, it's just a person!

The user of this live broadcast platform called "Fish and Chips" is also the suspect that the male protagonist once suspected. When communicating with his daughter in the live broadcast, he revealed that he is also a college student, but his parents divorced and his mother suffered from cancer. While treating the mother.

However, under the investigation of the police officer in charge of the case, the female college student was indeed a real person, but she was working in a fast food restaurant on the night of the incident and had no time to commit the crime, so she was ruled out as a suspect.

And now an ad for a funeral live broadcast service seems to have the same face of its spokesperson as the user of this live broadcast platform called "Fish and Chips". Is this a coincidence?
The slow operation of the mouse intercepted the image, and then searched for it on the Internet.

In an instant, there were overwhelming photos of this girl!
Photo after photo of the same sweet smile in different clothes, with different hairstyles, popped up on the search engines.
