Nomenclature of Night

   Chapter 691 Retracted fist

   Countdown to 168:00:00.

  The world is bright again.

  The plaza of Whale Island was silent at first, then the crowd began to sob, and finally everyone burst into tears.

   There are 4811 time walkers in the academy, and there are 4139 left at this time. Because of their participation in the defense line of the lower three districts, almost everyone except those children was injured.

  Parents will meet the 132 family members of City 10 who landed on the island, 19 were killed and 113 remain.

   also hurts everyone.

   And Kunlun... everyone was killed.

  Qingchen stood silently on the square. He couldn't even bear to look at the skeletons of the Kunlun members. There were 631 skeletons, and only the body of iodophor was still intact.

   But there was no flesh and blood on the neck of the iodophor, only the bones were left, and the flesh and blood of the bitten hands were still tightly protecting his abdomen.

   There was something he brought back with his life.

   "There seems to be something hidden in his abdomen," Lu Yuan said in a low voice.

   Lu Yuan tried to take the iodophor away from his hands, but the hands were still tightly hugged and could not be pulled apart at all.

   Lu Yuan squatted beside the corpse, wiping away tears, crying and speechless.

   This is the first time that Kunlun has experienced a downsizing of this scale, and it has never been seen before.

   Qingchen walked over and whispered, "I'll come."

   said, he bent over to lift the arm of iodophor, the arm that had been holding tightly, actually loosened the moment Qingchen touched it.

   Qingchen was stunned for a moment.

   He knew that the iodophor had passed away, but the other's body still had this kind of reaction.

   The 12 plug-in hard drives in the belly were given to Qingchen by iodophor, so no one except Qingchen could take them.

  It wasn't until Qingchen arrived that his body loosened up.

  This is against common medical knowledge. Qingchen heard that someone must see their relatives after death before closing their eyes. He always thought it was just some kind of coincidence or rumor.

   Until today, he did not believe that such a thing really existed.

   Qingchen couldn't control it, he took a few deep breaths before he made up his mind to gently open the belly of iodophor and took out the sealed bag.

   Lu Yuan shouted to the Kunlun members on the island: "Come and help, and cremate the bones of the brothers."

   At this time, some timewalkers in the academy walked up to Qingchen and said, "Thank you, little dean, thank you, if you hadn't come to pick us up, we might have died too."

   "Thank you, Dean."

   "Thank you, Dean!"

  The time walkers came to Qingchen in groups to thank him. In that chaotic environment, Qingchen took the time walkers back to the lower three districts.

  Sometimes he has returned to the depths of the city before the Timewalkers can thank him.

  Those time walkers are not wolves, they know very well what Qingchen has paid for them.

  Qingchen looked at these people calmly: "Go back and rest."

   Zheng Yuandong asked: "Qingchen, what happened in the past seven days in City No. 10?"

   "Little San, there are still many people here who don't know what happened in City No. 10. Tell them," Qingchen said calmly, while he himself sat aside, looking at the ground with the sealed bag in his hand.

  Little San summed up what happened in the past 7 days in the square, made a battle report, used it to review the game, and see what shortcomings everyone still has.

Zheng Yuandong listened quietly for a long time, and then shared the outside information he had learned with Qingchen: "Each army group fought in the north for six days, this time the war is bigger than expected, and everyone is fighting Dead hand. There will be no rescue in City 10, so you have to figure out a way to save yourself."

   "I understand," Qing Chen nodded.

"The number of Time Walkers surviving is far beyond my imagination. I thought it would be good to survive a thousand people in that kind of disaster," Zheng Yuandong said softly from the side: "Thank you, Qingchen, thank you And the help parents will give them.”

  Qingchen said in a low voice, "Actually, if I had gone to the iodophors earlier, maybe the iodophors would have a chance to live."

Zheng Yuandong shook his head: "If you didn't save the time walkers in the academy, iodophor is also obliged to save them, or he has to save them. This is Kunlun's responsibility. The time walkers should have saved themselves, but they don't have that ability. It's like in a fire, the victim rushes back into the fire to save his puppy, can the firefighters give up the rescue because of the other's stupidity? No, they have their mission, iodophor has iodophor mission."

"If the roles are reversed, it may be your turn to go to the PCE and the Transportation Bureau to get the hard drive, while iodophor will take people away from the defense line again and again, and then try to bring a team of time walkers back to the lower three districts. But do they have this ability? No, they can't traverse the city as easily as you can, and they can't remember as many places of refuge."

Zheng Yuandong: "So the final result is that you can still get the hard drive, and iodophor will still die for those time walkers and children. This is the responsibility and destiny of iodophor. Of course, you all did it very well. He is also excellent at the tasks that each other should accomplish.”

   Qingchen was silent.

"Don't think too much, Kunlun's responsibility is to protect these timewalkers," Zheng Yuandong said: "If he knew that you had saved so many timewalkers, you would be happy. No one in Kunlun will blame you, we have already Be mentally prepared for this, and believe in our consciousness.”

On the    square, Nangong Yuanyu and other students from the Agricultural College kept walking among the crowd, and kept releasing the chicken blood buds they had accumulated.

  Many timewalkers enjoy the peace of life after the catastrophe, their bodies are so soft that they can't even stand up, but everyone knows that they will experience another catastrophe in 7 days.

  Qingchen suddenly said, "We must change the world."

   "Huh?" Zheng Yuandong looked at Qingchen.

Qingchen continued: "The generation of gods launched this war at all costs for their own interests, completely ignoring the tens of millions of lives in a city. Although other consortiums were pinned on the battlefield and could not complete the rescue, in fact they Just firing a few long-range small missiles is enough to open the city wall and allow the refugees in the lower three districts to evacuate, but they did not do so, because they were worried that the rat tide would pass through those gaps and escape to the wilderness ahead of time. The problem of the inner world is no longer a problem. It's a problem with a consortium, but the world is sick and needs healing."

   "You are already changing the world," Zheng Yuandong said.

"It's not enough," Qingchen seemed to have figured out something, stood up and said, "Please prepare me a device that can adapt to the hard disk in the world. In addition, I need a huge office, 640 LCD screens, and at the same time Watch the video data brought back by iodophor at 4x speed. I'm going to rest, please wake me up when I'm ready... In addition, I will provide as much of the purple orchid star produced on Whale Island as possible to Kunlun, because you guys worth."

   After finishing speaking, Qingchen got up and looked at Xiao San: "Go and rest, wake up and count the dead list, and build a monument for them on the island."

  Little San said: "I can count now."

Qingchen shook his head: "You don't have to carry it hard, you have been working very hard for the past seven days. Tomorrow, I will inform the parent-teacher conference that all the time walkers in city 10 are ready to land on the island and use chicken blood buds to heal everyone's wounds, and there will be a tough battle after returning. To fight. Remember, in these 7 days, everyone must sleep enough, and there will be no time to sleep in the next crossing.”

   After finishing speaking, Qingchen turned around and walked towards the Agricultural College.

   Zheng Yuandong pondered, he suddenly felt that Qingchen had completed another transformation.

   If a person can only be dominated by emotions such as anger, sadness, etc., he cannot become a truly powerful person.

   Just now, Zheng Yuandong was worried that Qingchen would continue to torture himself like crazy, but Qingchen didn't, he chose to rest.

   Therefore, Zheng Yuandong knew that Qingchen had understood a truth. A fist that was withdrawn was not for admitting defeat, but for a better fight.

  …

  …

   Countdown to 157:00:00.

   Qingchen slept for a full 10 hours until he felt that his energy had fully recovered.

   sat up from the reclining chair, Zard and Huan Yu were actually leaning on the left and right sides of him and fell asleep.

  Zard tilted his head, saliva flowing into his collar, Huan Yu was lying on Qingchen's thigh, also drooling.

   This should be Xiao Yu.

   Qingchen couldn't imagine the scene where Oba was sleeping on his lap.

   "Wake up," Qingchen patted the two of them.

"Wow, boss, you're awake!" Zard said, "Boss Zheng asked me to tell you that he's ready and you can go anytime. In addition, the canteen Xiaozao is open to all timewalkers in City 10 for free. , Everyone can eat what you want, and I can go and cook for you! Just in your name, I will pack two servings of garlic crayfish for Xiaoyu, he likes to eat that!"

   Xiaoyu swallowed.

   Qingchen couldn't help laughing, it was nothing.

   "Just ask for whatever you want, and after you finish eating, send me a serving in the main teaching building," Qingchen stood up.

He came to the amphitheatre prepared for him by Kunlun. At this time, the classroom had been remodeled. The blackboard walls and the walls on the left and right of the classroom were neatly covered with 30-inch LCD screens, no more or no less, just 640 Piece.

   Lu Yuan was waiting, he looked at Qingchen suspiciously: "Why do you want so many screens?"

   "We'll find out later," Qingchen said, "Please number all the screens in sequence from 1 to 640, and then assign me 8 people who can control fast forward, pause, and rewind, thank you."

   said, Qingchen walked to the last row of the lecture hall alone and sat down: "Let's start."

   All 640 screens are lit up, and each screen is a monitoring screen, playing continuously at four times the speed.

   Qingchen's pupils narrowed, and he kept recording the pictures on each screen in his mind, and then used the memory palace to analyze it.

   "Started playing 15 days ago."

   "The 611th screen is adjusted to eight times the speed."

   "The 127th screen is adjusted to eight times the speed."

   "Screen 531 was put upside down for 48 hours."

   "Screen 137 was played upside down for 48 hours."

   Time passes by every minute and every second.

   Xiaoying said, "There are no mice on these screens? Are we looking for mice? I looked at the screen that Qingchen put upside down, and there were no mice in it..."

  Lu Yuan shook his head: "I can't see anything yet, wait, maybe Qingchen has his thoughts."

At this time, Qingchen suddenly said: "The screen No. 137 is suspended, and the man in the brown coat on the screen, he used to go out at 7 o'clock every day, take the light rail train on the screen No. 139, and go to the factory on the screen No. 631 to go to work. However, , Since the 21st day, he has never been out of the house again, help me mark it, he should have been killed by a mouse at home, so he did not go to work."

   The area where the man in the brown coat was located was the first person Qingchen found with an abnormal behavioral trajectory.

The   rat tide will never appear on the street in the early stage, and it is even less likely to appear in the road monitoring.

   Therefore, if Qingchen wants to analyze where the rat tide first appeared, he must infer the trend of the rat tide by analyzing the behavior of "people".

   He wasn't looking for mice in the surveillance cameras, but... but those who suddenly disappeared from the city.

"On the 141st, go back 36 hours, 32 minutes and 12 seconds, please mark the person on the screen. He was also 48 hours ago, and he was commuting normally, and so was his wife, but suddenly both husband and wife stopped going out. "

   "Rewind 47 hours, 10 minutes and 31 seconds before No. 136. The woman in the video goes to work in a **** in District 4 every night, but she hasn't gone out for two days."

   "No. 151..."

   "No. 153..."

  The Kunlun members' expressions gradually became dull. It turned out that the mice could not be seen, but they could be found.

   They looked at the young man at the back of the lecture hall in disbelief.

   "Little Eagle, mark these screens I marked on the map of City 10, I want to know where these people live."

  Qingchen commanded without emotion. Gradually, he commanded eight operators by himself. Even the eight operators couldn't keep up with the speed, and they were in a hurry.

   Xiaoying hurriedly looked at the map. Sometimes he marked the map faster than Qingchen could find out the information.

   All Kunlun members present felt a strong sense of oppression. They only felt that this kind of thinking ability was extremely terrifying.

   Lu Yuan and Ni Ergou looked at each other silently, and both saw the horror in each other's eyes.

   This is the first time that Qingchen has shown his brain power without reservation in front of outsiders.

When   Qingchen was instructing to rewind the video, he could be accurate to the second.

  The operator only needs to input the time that Qingchen needs to rewind, and the picture can be accurately fixed on the character Qingchen is looking for.

  Lu Yuan and Ni Ergou couldn't figure it out at all, how could someone watch 640 surveillance videos at the same time, and still be able to accurately find the information inside.

   Moreover, what Qingchen has to do is to remember all the people who have appeared on the screen.

  Analyze each other's behavioral trajectory.

   Identify the abnormal behavior of the other party.

   Qingchen is very relaxed when talking about information, and the amount of information hidden behind the actionable trajectory analysis is extremely huge!

  As Qingchen said thousands of pieces of information, the map of city No. 10 in front of Xiaoying was marked with dense red dots.

   As time goes by in the surveillance video, more and more people die in the city, and Lu Yuan and Ni Ergou can even feel the fear of more and more frequent rat tides.

   It was as if Qingchen took everyone with him through the surveillance video brought back by iodophor, and then personally experienced the reproduction and invasion of a rat wave.

   Watch the monitoring time, from the morning to the afternoon.

  Qingchen took a few bites of food and continued from the afternoon to midnight.

  Everyone is feeling the disappearance of human beings one by one and the harm caused by the rat tide.

   Immersive!

  The Kunlun members responsible for Qingchen's control all changed classes, only Qingchen has been sitting at the back of the amphitheatre, as if there is no emotion, working at the highest intensity.

  Lu Yuan suddenly had a sour nose and said, "If iodophor knew that the video he brought back could actually turn corruption into a miracle in Qingchen's hands, he would definitely feel no regrets in his death... They didn't die in vain."

  Qingchen will not let them die in vain.

   "Stop," Qing Chen said while looking at the screens, "Little Eagle, show me the map of City No. 10."

   "Hey, good," Kitty said excitedly.

   He and three other Kunlun members pulled a corner of the map and erected the map in front of Qingchen.

  Everyone can see the dense red dots in the city, each red dot represents a dead human, or more.

   On that map, rat infestations are scattered in the city, spreading outward with the fifth district as the axis.

   The fifth area is the most dense, and the fifth area on the map is almost dyed red.

   Only the lower three areas are still blank.

   Now, it will be clear at a glance where the rodent outbreak is coming from.

   "It started from the fifth district. They kept nibbling away at the entire fifth district and turned it into the first granary. The rat king should be there," Qingchen said.

   "Will it move later?" Lu Yuan asked.

"The 80% probability is still there. After all, in the No. 10 city yesterday, the fifth district still had the most rats. I now think that this rat tide has a clear division of labor, and it is more like the evolution of worker ants, soldier ants, and queen ants. Such a power structure," Qingchen said, "and this kind of 'ant queen' will most likely lose many other bodily functions due to the evolution of reproduction and fertility. The meaning of its existence is to become the intellectual hub of the group, and then Nonstop breeders of new swarms."

   Qingchen: "Of course, it does have a probability of moving to other places, so I need to continue to observe and monitor to find more clues."

What    Qingchen didn't say is that he also saw Qingwen, Qingshi, and happiness on the screen.

  I also saw some people behaving strangely on the screen.

   But the first three have little to do with this rat tide, so he didn't mention it to Kunlun, and the people behind... Qingchen plans to find them all tomorrow.

  Perhaps, some useful information can be found through these people.

  Qingchen stood up and walked out: "It's getting late, everyone should rest early. Tomorrow we will find out the location of the rat king... Thank you for your cooperation, see you tomorrow."

   said, Qing Chen left the lecture hall without looking back, without any hesitation.
