The monster villain of the extraordinary world

Chapter 165 Depersonalization
There was an explosion on Humong, and under the dark night sky, the people who gathered in Furong Square also burst into angry cries.

These people from all districts of the spreading city have changed the direction of the guns that were previously aimed at the showman.

The police and special service joint combat team that came to arrest the showman gang was surrounded by angry people, and every policeman tensed his facial muscles, as if he was facing an enemy.

When the people saw that the round-faced little girl who was handcuffed and about to be taken away was still beside the police car, they shouted to let her go:
"Those bastards are all in the same group. It's the boss of the company who pays the scouts!"

"Don't let them take this poor kid away, or there will be another experimental product in the company!"

"Save the child!"

Not only the pressure on the police officers increased tremendously, but Xingbao was also shocked.

On the one hand, once the angry people get out of control and attack, she may be trampled to death.

On the other hand, following those bird people, she was always prepared to enter the juvenile kindergarten sooner or later, so she did some research to find out:
Many babies who enter the kindergarten will be "adopted" by better families in the end, and they will be happy and disappear without a trace...

Isn't that another kind of disappearance?
Dr. Zhang said "need empty cards", Xing Bao looked at himself, he was a little different from other children of the same age, he might have been targeted, but the big water gun was no longer in his hand.

Miscalculation, in the end, sister Lingsha has more survival experience!

"Whoa, I'm not going to the kindergarten!"

Xingbao made up his mind and shouted, trying to make himself as pitiful as an ordinary 5-year-old child, "I want to go home, help me!"

Immediately, the people around became even more turbulent. Jiang Meier and many other reporters and photographers were pushed aside, almost rushed away.

Especially the people who crossed the border from the Thorn District were the most excited, approaching step by step, shouting in unison:

"Let people go! Let people go!"

"Uncle policeman, auntie policeman." Xingbao whispered to the more nervous police officers beside him:
"Why don't you loosen my handcuffs first? Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to go home."

At the same time, at the scene in Area X, the rustling TV white noise continued to roar.

After Dr. Zhang spoke excitedly to everyone, the more he watched the "TV children" in the hall, the more pleasing to the eye, and said:
"I believe that "Candle Cove" is like a lighthouse on the harbor coast, leading us on the channel to those lost places in World Zero and exploring deeper mysteries.

"Among these children, there is a captain who can see lights."

Although Dr. Zhang said grandly, the old mother didn't buy it, and could hardly help but curse:

"Nothing can change the fact that they are just children. Can you really do this?"

The smart girl immediately gave the old mother a hug, while Brother Jinlian and Mengshanan stood aside to manage a few cars of children.

Lei Yue was still thinking about something in silence and didn't speak.

"Haha!" Dr. Zhang laughed, completely disapproving of this reprimand tone, still immersed in a kind of ecstasy:
"These kids are leading more meaningful lives than many others their age!
"Not everyone has access to the mysteries of the universe, and I sometimes envy them.

"Isn't it a blessing that they can be taken out of mediocre and humble lives and participate in the creation of history?"

Countless viewers were further annoyed by this bearded crazy doctor, and the old mother became the spokesperson of the public:
"Which child would feel lucky? He was abducted, and some parents were killed."

The woman in the suit and some other staff members in white coats looked over vigilantly.

I don't know if it is the influence of the game mechanism, but Dr. Zhang still doesn't think so, and continues to say happily:
"I see, you have a problem with kidnapping.

"This is just a small price to pay to get to the mystery, don't be limited by those vulgar moral concepts, it has never been the truth.

"You know, abduction is because abduction is needed.

"If children are only needed here, there are other ways, and they will only be more efficient.

"Like 'mass production' and 'embryo gene editing'? There are 1 babies for 1 surrogate mothers. If you spend some money, they are satisfied, and so are we.

"Don't doubt the company's financial resources, money is not a problem, I tried it before, but those children have no 'soul', they are all waste products!

"The reason why low-level people like you hire kidnappers from lower-level people is because they have to have this kind of experience.

"Children who have had normal lives and emotions, and then been abducted, have a deeper connection to urban legends, better synchronicity, higher heterogeneous affinity.

"I tell you, [the mutilated child] is an urban legend, but it is also a very old old saying, found in all countries and places in the world: a child is usually a boy who is kidnapped by kidnappers, and which limbs are twisted Cut off, and then thrown to the streets to beg and perform freak shows.

"Since human beings have civilization, there has been this legend. Why? I only know that it is a part of the human soul!

"So it must be abducted children, which are the correct materials for various experiments in this place."

Dr. Zhang's excited words undoubtedly answered many questions from the audience.

At the same time, more outrageous details were exposed.

Various experiments! ?
The corridor just now was still very long, and this is just one of the event halls, and it's just one of the floors, and there is a whole super building!
Obviously, this place has not existed for a day, a month or a year, but has a long history.

There are still more experiments that have not been exposed. According to Dr. Zhang's tone, people are not regarded as people, but "materials".

The longer they stay, the deeper they explore, the more the truth is exposed, and the more people from all walks of life are panicking now!

"The scandal of the century!" Oasis Channel, Qi Tu used the most serious voice:
"Where is 'Candle Cove' located in Sprawling City? Which company opened it? All of this needs rescue, truth, and guillotine!"

This night, the whole city became more and more sensational, probably no one thought that a fake video or a small video would cause the situation to develop to this point.

"Dr. Zhang, how many children have there been here?" The old mother asked the question formally at the X area scene.

Lei Yue scanned the spacious hall, and the rustling white noise was bringing him to the depths of the memory in his mind.

Before the fire in his childhood, he and his parents bought an old-fashioned TV set at the village dump. When they got home, they found a video tape inside and started playing it.

The TV screen he saw was showing cartoons, a clown character was twisting his body, it was very interesting and fun, he imitated and acted...

Mom was watching happily, "Is there a clown? Haha."

Those words back then, now emerged so clearly.

Is there a clown... Mom's tone, it seems that she didn't see the cartoon, what she saw on the TV screen were some other images... So did my father, and so did my mother-in-law...

Only he, at the age of 6 at the time, saw the Joker figure, an episode of Candle Cove.

And then, just because of that, the synchronization was achieved, and that old TV and VHS resonated into oblivion?
Or is it the TV set and the video tape, which were lost in the first place?

Is it before or after?Is it cause or effect?
Lei Yue couldn't tell the difference, and remembered what Lingsha said, "doors and keys" are just a way that humans can understand, not the thing itself.

Suddenly, a strange and hoarse child's scream suddenly sounded in the hall.

Just a few rows away from the door, also in front of an old-fashioned TV, a five or six-year-old boy seemed to be mad.

The boy's immature face was twisted, his eyes were wide open, and he was saying something in a fast and high voice:
"Darkness sprouts within me, I am the incarnation of black flesh, the light and shadow of the world penetrates the dry skin to bring reality, filling the shell of worms..."

"Ah!" Dr. Zhang suddenly screamed, holding his head with his hands, looking extremely heartbroken and disappointed.

As if seeing some great artwork smashed into pieces, Dr. Zhang lost his voice in pain: "No. 232611!"

The other staff members in white coats also changed their colors one after another, and a man and a woman walked towards the little boy.

"What's wrong with him?" Lei Yue asked, frowning slightly on the stiff head on his neck.

"Depersonalization!"

Dr. Zhang sighed anxiously, "This kind of thing always happens in this experiment, when any child's mind can't bear the impact of the signal from "Candle Bay", it will happen like this.

"Their words should have involved mysteries, and of course they are of great record and research value.

"But number 232661 is a high potential kid who can see the clown show!

"He is a hope for us here. He was making good progress and his performance was very stable. Why, why now..."

The more Dr. Zhang spoke, the more painful his expression became. He was so radiant just now, but now he seemed to have fallen from the clouds.

However, what shocked Dr. Zhang and the audience even more immediately was that a few more children in the hall suddenly screamed wildly.

These children were all distorted, facing the snowflake screen of the TV, falling into a kind of hysteria.

A little girl read: "You hear voices that do not belong to your world, you are in a time and space that does not belong to your world, the big puppet tears you apart, and the pirate captain devours you..."

Another little boy was chanting: "All the legends are singing the praises of the destroyed world, and all the doom will come, turning the internal organs into skin, and turning the mirror image into reality..."

At the same time, the commentators of various channels are also exclaiming, not every X area can see such a strange scene.

"What is depersonalization?" Oasis Channel, Qitu said anxiously: "Let's connect with psychiatrist Professor Wilson-Pia immediately. Will, what's going on now?"

As the situation on the scene changed rapidly, Professor Pia was asked by the director to speak concisely and quickly:
"Depersonalization is a mental disorder that is not the growth or splitting of personality but the fragmentation or dissociation of identity, memory and consciousness.

"These kids, they're probably feeling that things around them are not real, that they're disconnected, that their senses aren't working, that they're becoming an empty shell.

"However, I feel like someone else is talking in my head and even controlling me, like being possessed.

"I think this is the situation now. Their personalities are dissociated, their minds are shattered, and they are controlled by the signal of "Candle Cove"!"

"Wait!" Manan said very quickly, "Professor Pia, I thought of something.

"Professor Pia, we all know that there is a real hammer about the showman. He has suffered from 'living dead syndrome' since childhood. Does this have anything to do with depersonalization?"

"It's different!" Professor Pia immediately said, giving the audience more popular science on psychiatry:
"Splitting personality, depersonalization, and living dead syndrome are similar, but not the same thing.

"The first two are personality problems, with disordered thinking, ambiguous identity, and 'I'm gone'; the latter has no personality problems, but has some fixed delusional content, believing that I have died or part of my body is rotting, 'Own dead'.

"The difference is that when one dies, it is only a matter of the body; when one dies, the soul also dies. It is even more chaotic, and all memories and sensory information are fragments."

There are more and more children with depersonalization in the X area. Seeing that the situation is about to explode, Qitu concluded:
"Okay, Professor Pia, from what you said, it seems that the living dead syndrome is a more stable condition?"

"Not for the body, but for the personality!" Professor Pia continued, understanding the comparison they wanted to ask:

"It seems that the 'Candle Cove' signal will have a great psychological impact on children, which can be counted in the category of 'traumatic memory', including the fire that the showman suffered as a child.

"It's all shocks and traumas, and good actors seem to be able to bear it better. Although traumatic experiences are released through the delusional channel, they retain their personality.

"But if you can't bear it, then, depersonalization!

"These children lost themselves, their personalities were torn apart, and they became fragments floating among thousands of worlds!"

When Martina heard this, she immediately added: "Poor child!"

At this time, in the live event hall, Dr. Zhang woke up like a dream, and stared angrily at the showman and the others:
"It's you! The unknown variables brought here have changed the threshold here.

"The "Candle Cove" signal has been boosted...suddenly increased dramatically, like a bomb! No. 232661 they can't take it yet.

"It's you, it's you!"

The audience saw that Dr. Zhang was so angry that his beard was blowing out and his face was trembling. They noticed the bulging black plastic bag in the hand of the showman, and asked:
"What's in it???"

"I'm afraid Dr. Zhang's judgment is right!" Qi Tu explained, "The showman is a clown variant, which triggers an unknown resonance and enhances the signal there!"

In the hall, the little boy "No. 232661" who was the first to depersonalize was still muttering strangely:

"Its name echoes in my shell, its face is made of my flesh, and calling its name calls my name..."

swoosh-

The alarm sounded suddenly, resounding through the event hall and the outer corridor, and the entire floor was once again in a chaotic situation of people running around.

bang bang!A heavy door was closed at the entrance of the activity hall, and the threshold became extremely unstable, and the corridor undulated and twisted like waves, gradually becoming empty.

"My research cannot be destroyed by you!" Dr. Zhang was about to explode, and he and a group of staff in white coats were going to restrain the showman and the others.

Audiences all over the city shouted, the head key is useless, and the map of the outer floor space is gone. Players can only solve problems in this event hall to re-stabilize the threshold.

Or, is this astonishing game over?
