Doomsday Jigsaw Game Chapter 16: : Strange supermarket “freedom” syndrome
After deciding with Xu Ling to go to Pike Street, Tang Jing called Lao Zhao.
This is also what Lao Zhao asked for. The necessary preparations before the battle, Lao Zhao can rely on various "money" channels to obtain a lot of information, which can be regarded as providing Tang Jing with pre-war resources and intelligence support during the battle.
"Finally received your call, it looks like I'm going to act, right?" Old Zhao on the other end of the phone didn't look very excited, and his tone was faintly worried.
"Yes. Is there any notice to tell?" Tang Jing responded calmly.
Without the help of Master, Tang Jing actually has no confidence in whether he can complete the task with Xu Ling and eliminate the "distortion" by himself.
But someone has to do it.
The news I got from Lao Zhao not long ago was that the people in that supermarket never came out once they entered.
But it doesn't look like death, the atmosphere inside is unusually "peaceful". When someone called the police, it was because someone said that his friend's temperament had changed drastically and he was suspected of being kidnapped.
On the other end of the phone, Lao Zhao said anxiously:
"Unfortunately, I am currently also recruiting those capable people who seem to have awakened some kind of supernatural power. In fact, not long ago, I did form a team, which is different from your perceivers who can perceive the black mist. These people can be regarded as field teams, with combat capabilities different from humans."
Tang Jing didn't understand why Lao Zhao said this. Since he had such a team, he shouldn't need him.
"But after they entered that supermarket... how should I put it... they seemed to be different people. In short, they no longer obeyed my orders." Old Zhao had a headache.
"Are they controlled? Like hypnosis?"
"It's not very similar. Their logic is very smooth, and their sense of autonomy is very strong... I can't say it well. In short, they are a bit of a rogue. Tell me temporarily, why should I work for you? You just pay the money, I Not rare..."
"Ah this..."
Old Zhao is definitely very generous, and the price he offered is definitely satisfactory. At least much higher than the industry standard.
Tang Jing felt something was wrong:
"Why don't you try adding money?"
"Well, you have my demeanor. Indeed, for things that cannot be solved by a million, I will use 10 million to solve it. But this time is different... This time, they want all my property , These people's temperaments have changed a lot. Moreover, this change seems to be spreading."
Old Zhao sighed and said:
"I have no other choice, I don't know if it would be appropriate to arrange for you and your little girlfriend to go, but it is considered a crisis event. Very... negative impact."
Relying on her powerful five senses, Xu Ling was also able to capture this call. For some reason, she suddenly felt that the ability of the infected person in the supermarket was somewhat...familiar.
Lao Zhao's final advice:
"In short, you have to be careful. At present...the place may be in danger at present, not from the danger of infected people in the supermarket, but from outside the supermarket. Before the real danger comes, I will notify you to leave."
Understood Tang Jing, there must have been some official Orlo organizations who noticed the vision in the supermarket.
These people may use whatever it takes to... wipe out the infected.
…
…
Olma Supermarket is a well-known supermarket in Allo, with large specifications.
Under the cover of the night, Tang Jing and Xu Ling rushed all the way to the outskirts of the scene, relying on their extraordinary physical strength and using not very standard but very effective parkour postures.
As soon as he arrived at the scene, Tang Jing felt the weird atmosphere.
People from the Orlo Police Department have arrived, and seven police cars are surrounding the elevator outside the entrance of the supermarket.
In addition, there are nearly twenty security personnel.
Mostly white, only a few black people.
This is also normal, people in the supermarket can only go in and out, and at the very beginning, someone called the police, saying that a friend was suspected of being kidnapped.
In addition, the officials obviously noticed the arrival of distortion earlier than ordinary people. Unlike the scientists on TV, those who are really capable must have already begun to formulate countermeasures.
Beat twist with twist, feel twist with twist. Just like Lao Zhao, he started recruiting capable people and strangers early. Use these supernatural beings against the infected.
But this time... Tang Jing saw something was wrong.
Even Xu Ling's, who only had a few years of memory, noticed a very obvious... sense of disobedience.
He and Xu Ling squatted on the huge vertical sign of a restaurant not far away.
"It's evil." Xu Ling looked at the huge supermarket.
Tang Jing is very strange, how does she know the word evil?
By now, most people will be referred to as those affected by the distortion, called mutants.
But Tang Jing actually noticed...Old Zhao actually separated the mutants from the infected.
In Lao Zhao's mouth, ordinary people have gained great power, called mutants.
As a result, he gained powerful power and produced an evil fall with a body change like Xu Ling, which was called an infected person by Lao Zhao.
Tang Jing couldn't help but admire Old Zhao. This person had grasped some of the truth in this distortion through all kinds of news obtained by "money".
There are two kinds of mutations, one is a pure gift, and the other is a transformation like Xu Ling's... from human to inhuman.
People in the black mist call this transformation evil fall.
In fact, Bai Wu didn't elaborate on this information, it was all understood by Tang Jing himself. But also because of the divine descent, Tang Jing seems to have directly inherited part of the cognition in the setting in this regard.
"It's the same as us?" Tang Jing didn't forget that the identity given to him by his master was evil.
"It's different...it's different from you." Xu Ling thought for a while, and broke the lie.
Tang Jing was taken aback.
Xu Ling said:
"I am willing to be deceived by such a lie, which shows that Tang Jing is a very gentle person...and I am very happy...you did not become a monster like me."
"You are not a monster."
"Yeah."
Xu Ling is very calm.
Tang Jing understands what Master said a little bit now, just treat it sincerely, but don't think about calculating it.
Because of being evil...may not be as stupid as it appears. The reason why Xu Ling can tolerate lies is because the master's appearance at the beginning... was indeed out of good intentions, allowing Xu Ling to get out of the confinement of his heart.
Maybe this girl has turned into a monster, but Master made her soul still a human soul.
Tang Jing cheered up and began to observe his surroundings:
"It is indeed the same as what Lao Zhao said...it is very strange, and this strangeness seems to be really spreading..."
Twenty or so Orlo police officers, when they arrived here for the first time, they were all on standby, waiting for the next step to be instructed by their superiors.
Amplified speakers, explosion-proof suits, firearms and other suppression props are fully prepared.
But the painting style of these people is a bit weird and outrageous.
A middle-aged black male policeman took off his clothes, revealing some parts of himself.
And take a selfie with your mobile phone, and post all kinds of remarks that will be harmonized as "***" in various community forums that are usually polite.
He laughed:
"Fuck it, these self-proclaimed elite bastards, come! See if your uncle and mine are strong!"
On the other side, a younger man wearing a suit who looks like a negotiator is calling to divorce his wife:
"No, no, no, you did a good job, you did the right thing, you have served me very comfortably these years, except that you are like a stupid bird and have a wife meeting with a group of stupid birds every day, I love you I don't have any opinions, but who told me to like younger long legs? And you also know that your shelf life is a bit short. Hahahahahaha..."
On weekdays, he treats his wife with respect as a guest. The model husband in everyone's eyes finally took off his mask. During this phone call, he actually talked to his current wife with a proud face about the few mistresses he was currently talking about. Primary 4, 5, and 6, and carefully analyzed each person's sexual fetishes, skills, and... times.
Tang Jing couldn't imagine... how this wife would react when she learned that a good husband who respects women and is loyal on weekdays showed such a face.
He now understands... why someone would call the police, suspecting that his friend had been kidnapped.
Although Tang Jing didn't know what this white man looked like on weekdays, but seeing this man's gentle appearance, he felt that the person he pretended to be would definitely not be what he is now.
Extreme machismo, full of contempt for women.
There is something even more outrageous. The sheriff next to him took the big horn and yelled into it:
"Oh, why don't you **** die? Do you know that at this point I should have hugged my wife to sleep, and I should have lived and died because of you bastards, because of my useless position?" The **** boss who is willing to leave, I have to come to this ghost place at this time!"
The future is gone...
This sergeant, who usually talks about human rights and claims to be the security service of Allo citizens, has now said a lot of words that despise the human rights of these people.
Although Tang Jing knows that these arrogant people are often just for the sake of face, and they must not test human nature.
But now, he does have some sympathy for these people.
Among the twenty or so members of the Police Department, some scolded their former friends, and some asked why their parents didn't die sooner.
Some people were naked and asked wantonly, "Hey, is my body good?", and some people advised people in the supermarket to commit suicide quickly. The three of them played poker together. Or someone starts shooting indiscriminately.
Of course, there are better and less outrageous ones. A young police officer looked around in fear, thinking that everyone shouldn't be like this. At the same time...he took out his mobile phone to play games.
He knew that he should persuade his colleagues, but he couldn't restrain his inner desire and wanted to get out the game console to play games.
Compared to the others, he was the least affected one. He worked **** weekdays, served tea and water to the old police officers, and did his best to deal with various cases.
It can be said that the person design is the same as the outside. It's just that young people like to play games. After this was magnified, he started playing Super Smash Bros.
Tang Jing thought about it, this is probably the most normal of this group of abnormal people.
"What the **** is going on, these police officers...why... feel like they have completely let themselves go."
"It's ability, an ability that makes people's inner desires magnify infinitely. Once it is eroded by this ability, it will reveal its original face and make actions that even dare not dream."
Xu Ling didn't know why, but she felt very familiar with this ability.
"Simply put, it's...do whatever you want? Hmm...but that's not a good thing."
Tang Jing can imagine that most human desires are to be suppressed.
A thorough indulgence means a fall.
If this ability is allowed to continue to erode the city, one can imagine how many crimes will happen in this city.
Fortunately at the moment... it's not outrageous that this kind of ability affects people with dark hearts.
Streakers, extreme machismo, and fake human rights protectors, in Tang Jing's view, the impact of the current depravity is just to let these duplicity people die.
Evil has not yet spread. There is still time to stop this crisis.
Tang Jing intends to go and eradicate the source.
Xu Ling was a little flustered:
"Ah, I...you..."
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Xu Ling hesitate to speak, Tang Jing was puzzled, Xu Ling lowered his head and said softly:
"Why don't I go alone...I don't want to see Tang Jing, you...degenerate."
Tang Jing was taken aback.
Xu Ling's head was lowered a bit. She was actually scared.
I'm afraid that what Tang Jing said to me are all lies, I'm afraid that after entering this field, Tang Jing will suddenly turn his head and call himself a monster, a burden...
It doesn’t matter even if you are cheated, the current me ~IndoMTL.com~ hates loneliness, even if I am used by others, as long as I don’t let myself be discarded. Just don't expose the lie.
Tang Jing smiled:
"You are going this time, what about next time? Next time? I can't rely on you all the time. And I'm very powerful, have you forgotten? Otherwise, you wouldn't be here."
"But...but you will change, and you will also be affected by this ability. Are you not afraid...of your true self?"
There are very few people who are honest, sharp, and face their hearts. Most people hate their true selves. Vanity, hypocrisy, low self-esteem, arrogance, greed, more or less, human nature will have some of these things.
In Xu Ling's view, Tang Jing is not perfect, but very cute.
She didn't want Tang Jing to be like those scum with human skins. She believed in Tang Jing, but she was afraid of fate.
Tang Jing suddenly realized. He was silent for a while, and soon realized that if he continued to be silent, the spread would become bigger and bigger.
"Human beings have a lot of ugliness, maybe my heart is not very beautiful, so I have to restrain myself, there are very few natural good people, just like when we were young, there was no right and wrong when we were naughty , but as we continue to discipline ourselves, we gradually become good people.”
"Look at these people, they may not be so bad on weekdays, maybe everyone respects them, in order to gain everyone's respect, they will keep suppressing their true inner thoughts and hypocrisy, but in the process, maybe they really will know how to respect women and human rights.”
Tang Jing said these words very frankly, Xu Ling raised his head, and suddenly felt that Tang Jing at this moment was a bit like Tang Jing when he first met.
Tang Jing started to move towards the supermarket:
"Let's go and meet with me, what kind of person am I. I also want to know..."
"Is there any evil in my heart?"
