I'm not sick! So do my other personalities!

As night falls, space advertisements are colorful and various special effects are constantly playing.

In the northwest corner of Changfang District, low hills undulate and grow lush vegetation.

Buildings rise from time to time in the gaps between dense green plants.

One of the tall buildings has a clear distance from other buildings and is located alone in a mountain col.

It has a total height of about fifty or sixty stories, with broken scaffolding and some old cranes hanging on the outside. It is obviously an unfinished building.

The barriers surrounding the building have long existed in name only, with holes everywhere.

This unfinished building is the "Huangjia Club". More than 40 years ago, the richest man in Binhai City invested tens of billions to build a top luxury entertainment venue. For this purpose, he specially invited an international first-class designer to design it. When the construction started, drafts were everywhere , everyone thought that Binhai City would have a new landmark in a few years.

Unexpectedly, just a few years after the construction started, we encountered the "digital rain", the world situation changed drastically, the richest man went bankrupt, and the "Huangjia Club" was declared unfinished after several financing failures.

In the beginning, anchors and the like often came to film and explore, but there were countless buildings with similar experiences. As time went by, and the "Huangjia Club" was located in a remote location, it gradually disappeared among most people. In my memory, I endure corrosion and forgetfulness alone in this mountain valley.

A black commercial vehicle drove into the building very easily under the cover of darkness.

The room, which has no doors, windows, decorations or furniture of any kind, is very spacious, and the sound of the car's engine echoes.

The headlights illuminated the scene ahead. Rows of load-bearing pillars stood silently. Between the pillars were large tracts of open space, extending to a distance beyond the reach of the headlights. Within the field of vision, in addition to dust, silt and some construction debris, the entire building has been silently eroded by plants. The ceiling is covered with various vines, and clumps of vines are sprouting from the gaps between the steel and concrete. Grass blades, moss growing in the shadows.

The development of science and technology and the power of nature are intertwined at this moment, both contradictory and integrated.

The vehicle stopped in an open space, the main and passenger doors opened at the same time, and Zhou Zhen and Xie Qiongning got out of the car.

Xie Qiongning looked around and quickly found an inconspicuous luminous mark, pointing to the depths.

She motioned for Zhou Zhen to follow.

Before the two walked along the mark for a while, an electronic gate appeared in front of them.

Xie Qiongning took out an invitation letter and waved it in front of the sensor in front of the door, and the door opened immediately.

As soon as they walked in, the electronic door closed.

Behind the door is a small rough hall, with a portable flashlight hanging at regular intervals on the wall. This old-fashioned flashlight is like a street lamp, winding deeper into the basement of this unfinished building, attracting many people. Flying insects circle and chase.

The dim light illuminated two old doll costumes on the ground, one for a duck and one for a cheetah.

This kind of doll costume is fully wrapped, and you can't even tell whether you are male or female, tall or short inside.

Xie Qiongning picked up the cheetah doll costume and explained: "These are one-time prop costumes."

"Many of the people who come to participate in the transaction have sensitive identities and cannot be seen."

"So, the organizers will arrange different entrances for everyone who comes to participate in the transaction."

"This kind of props and costumes will be prepared in advance at each entrance."

"It is a modified doll suit used by merchants to attract business. It has a voice changer inside that randomly generates sounds. After it is put on, it will be difficult for others to recognize its identity. It also has a self-destruction system. It will last for 10 seconds after being taken off. In about minutes, it will be automatically destroyed to avoid leaving biological information.”

"And of course, the same goes for the organizers themselves."

With that said, Xie Qiongning checked the costume and made sure there was nothing wrong with it, and quickly put on the costume.

This cheetah doll's costume is very thick, and even when worn over the original clothes, it looks extremely loose.

Xie Qiongning put on the hood and gloves again, and his original appearance was no longer visible at all.

Zhou Zhen nodded, picked up the remaining duck doll costume, and put it on as well.

After making all preparations, Xie Qiongning followed the instructions of the "street light" and walked forward, followed closely by Zhou Zhen.

Step, step, step...

The monotonous footsteps echoed continuously in the dim space, and from time to time, a burst of dust was stirred up and flew repeatedly.

When this building was built, it was planned to be a top club in Changfang District. The planning was very thorough. Even if it was unfinished midway, it was extremely vast, a bit like a large cave.

The two of them followed the "street light" and turned several corners, then went down a flight of stairs and continued walking in this maze-like building. They could no longer tell the direction clearly and could only vaguely feel that they were heading towards the center of the building. Walk to location.

While walking, Zhou Zhen suddenly asked: "This place looks abandoned for a long time. These flashlights and the electronic door just now seem to have been installed on-site by a private person."

"The previous trading locations were all places like this?"

Xie Qiongning said: "The location of each transaction is different. I didn't go to the last transaction. I don't know what it looks like."

"This organizer often makes various requests out of nowhere."

"For example, changing the trading location."

"Or like this time, change the trading time..."

"Also, there is a rumor, I don't know if it is true..."

"Some of the people who have completed transactions with this organizer will always have various accidents in the following period, and the mortality rate is very high..."

Accident?

die?

Zhou Zhen frowned and was about to ask a more detailed question when the front suddenly opened up. Each portable flashlight illuminated a very wide hall!

This hall should be located at the intersection of moving lines. In addition to the corridor they came out of, it is also connected to a dozen other similar corridors.

And inside these corridors, there seem to be more forks.

The flashlight emits a dim light, and can only illuminate a small area in this rough hall. Most of it is still hidden in the darkness.

Under a load-bearing column, there is an old-fashioned round clock. The hour and minute hands show the current time, which is exactly 22:55.

At this moment, not far from the round clock, there are already more than a dozen figures in doll costumes standing, including the big bad wolf, golden monkey, peacock, white ape, husky, cheese cat, big white goose...

All the figures were very quiet. Occasionally, someone raised his hand to chase away moths that flew in front of them. There was no intention of communicating with each other.

Zhou Zhen and Xie Qiongning immediately stopped talking. They walked to the crowd and stood not far away, with no intention of saying hello to anyone else.

Zhou Zhen secretly observed the first arrivals. They were basically in groups of two and kept a certain distance from each other. They were divided into nine groups in total. Counting him and Xie Qiongning, there were ten groups and ten invitations. There were still five people with invitations who didn't show up.

In addition, the organizer of the trade fair has not shown up yet...

After pondering slightly, Zhou Zhen continued to wait silently.

Not long after, two groups of people wearing doll costumes came out of the two opposite corridors.

After a while, two groups of people came in from the front and rear.

The second hand was ticking, and when the minute hand pointed to 22:59, the two people with the last invitation also rushed over.

All the people with fifteen invitations have arrived.

Everyone waited in silence without any communication.

Finally, the time reached 23:00, and a figure wearing a frog costume walked in from one of the corridors.

This figure held a wooden box in his hand, walked to the front of the crowd, stood still, and said in a hoarse voice: "Everyone, follow the old rules, let's get started!"

As he spoke, he put down the wooden box and opened it. Inside were various mathematics textbooks, mathematics exercise books, mathematics test papers, mathematics books...

"Frog" took out all the mathematics textbooks from the boxes and set up a total of three stalls in the open space in front of him according to the categories like setting up stalls.

Seeing these mathematics textbooks, people around them immediately gathered around.

Zhou Zhen also followed the crowd and quickly approached the "frog".

"Frog" said with a hoarse voice: "The transaction time is still 3 minutes, and the payment time is 2 minutes."

"The surrounding lights are yellow now. In three minutes, they will turn blue. When the time comes, hurry up and pay."

"After 5 minutes, the light turns red and the transaction ends immediately!"

"This batch of mathematics textbooks are for the first to third years of high school."

"Don't blame me for not warning you in advance. High school textbooks from 20 years ago have a high risk of infection!"

"Of course, the possibility of becoming compatible will also be higher!"

"The price this time is a little higher than before."

"A complete set of textbooks for the first year of high school costs 100 Boda coins."

"The second year of high school is 200 'Boda coins', and the third year of high school is 300 'Boda coins'..."

Just when "Frog" was making the quotation, Zhou Zhen had already taken the opportunity to select teaching materials and walked step by step not far in front of the other party.

This position is immediately close to the distance where he can take action!

But at this moment, "Frog" suddenly walked towards a buyer wearing a big white goose doll costume, and covered the buyer's half-opened math textbook: "Don't you understand the rules?"

"You can only buy the math textbooks here, but you can't read them!"

“If you don’t want to buy it, you don’t have to buy it!”
