Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 573 Picking Potato Chips

Now, Lin Sanjiu is sure that those data bodies did tamper with this copy.

After the voice of the original potato chip cone disappeared, the shelf full of puffed food fell silent.In the dim light, the bearded old man on the potato chip tube, the smiling spokesperson, the leopard eating cornflakes... Row after row, countless neat faces were silently looking at her.

"What is the correct potato chip?"

It was only the time of turning her eyes, and when Lin Sanjiu turned her eyes again, she couldn't tell which potato chip tube was grabbing her just now.She scanned the shelves over and over again, feeling like a lunatic and whispered, "Tell me, how should I find it?"

It was quiet on the shelf, and there was no response.

Those data bodies obviously deleted all the "rule introduction" parts, but presumably, the copy itself still operates according to the same rules.In this way, Lin Sanjiu seemed to have taken an inexplicable exam: the questions were all crossed out, but she had to write down the correct answer.

After thinking about it, she carefully lifted the shopping basket, and lightly touched a bag of corn sticks with its corner.

She deliberately didn't touch the potato chips, just to see what would happen if she chose a wrong answer-the corn sticks shook slightly, the packaging bag was sunken, and then filled up again.After waiting for a few seconds, nothing happened.

Could it be that even if you encounter the wrong snack, as long as you don't put it in the shopping basket?
Lin Sanjiu thought for a while, finally squatted down, stretched out his hand lightly, and poked a cornflake with a rooster on the outer package.

The bag rattled, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand and looked up nervously, but the shelves quickly returned to silence.

...as if she guessed right.

Lin Sanjiu heaved a sigh of relief, and she became more courageous——she glanced across the shelves, looking at them row by row.These puffed foods are covered with a layer of dust, and even the color is dim. Obviously, I don't know how long they have been stored.

Correct...does it mean not expired?
She stared blankly at the shelves in front of her, thinking.

If that's the case, you have to first figure out what day is today in the store, and then compare it with the production date on the packaging bag-wait, isn't this too simple?

Because all actions can only be relied on, she suddenly became a little suspicious again.

Still, she decided to try.There are magazines at the cash register, and the magazines should always be the latest issue——Lin Sanjiu just stood up, and suddenly froze.

She lowered her head slowly again.

Just like any ordinary store, there is more than one item displayed for each product, and there are usually at least several packs, occupying a small section of the shelf neatly.The same is true on the shelf she tested just now - the black and red packaging bags are arranged one after another on the lower shelf, and there is a big rooster on each bag, which is exposed to Lin Sanjiu in exactly the same way. Smiling profile.

... There was only one rooster on the bag, facing Lin Sanjiu directly.Its magnified beak rests on top of the packaging, as if it was about to emerge from the painting.

It was the same packet she had just touched.

Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly looked at another package of corn sticks—on the pack of corn sticks that she hit with a basket, the cartoon leopard was still in good condition, bulging with its countless colleagues. There is nothing unusual about the cheeks.

If you touch it again, I don't know what will happen?
Thinking so, Lin Sanjiu didn't reach out to the bag of cornflakes again.The reminder just now made it very clear, choose "the correct bag of potato chips" - so this time after she thought about it for a while, the object she reached out for was a bag of potato chips without any faces on it.

Her fingers touched the packaging bag, and she took it back quickly; her heart beat a few times, and she stared at the bag of potato chips, not daring to look away.

Nothing happened.

The second time, Lin Sanjiu's finger stayed for a little longer - except that there was more dust on the finger, the result was the same.

After trying several times in a row, seeing that there was no wave, she became more and more courageous; finally, one time, instead of moving her finger away, she grasped it tightly on the packaging bag, and slowly pulled the bag away. The bag of potato chips was taken down.

A deep black hole immediately appeared on the full shelves—behind the outermost merchandise, there were only empty shelves, like an endless tunnel, with a cool breeze blowing out from the darkness.Lin Sanjiu glanced at the dark "hole", and didn't put the potato chips in the shopping basket, but just looked at it twice, trying to find out where the production date was.

She soon saw a small print on the seal that was almost fading: "1986.10.21".

so long?

Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, she didn't expect this bag of potato chips to be older than herself; after looking around, she couldn't find the expiration date.

Forget it, put it back first——she thought to herself.Since she couldn't leave the range of this shelf, she might as well try to call the puppeteer over; although that guy didn't look like a very smart person, it was better than thinking alone.

Lin Sanjiu raised his eyes while thinking.

In the dark and deep hole of the shelf, another face with blurred features floated up, just facing her eyes.

Just as her heart beat, before Lin Sanjiu could react, an arm suddenly protruded from the depths of the shelf and grabbed her wrist; She couldn't even resist the slightest bit of power, and she was dragged straight to the shelf—her hairs exploded in an instant, and she was about to call out [Tornado Whip] as soon as she blinked again, and her eyes suddenly went black , also quiet down.

The face and pale arms that were hidden behind the shelf just now disappeared without a trace, as if they were a hallucination.

Soon, the scene came into Lin Sanjiu's field of vision again.

The aisles, the shelves, the dim light, the dust floating in the air... are still exactly the same as before.

If there is any difference, it is that Lin Sanjiu's perspective is different - she seems to have subconsciously turned around just now, and the direction she is looking at is exactly where she was standing just now.

She wanted to try to turn her head to look, but for some reason, she felt that her body movements were sluggish.

After two seconds of silence, Lin Sanjiu slowly came to his senses.

She exhausted all her strength and pushed her gaze to the left-she still couldn't see clearly, but in her peripheral vision, rows of various puffed food were placed beside her, tightly and silently looking at her.

Not just on the left—on the right and below, there are neatly arranged snack bags and potato chip cones.

...she was turned into a bag of potato chips and put on the shelf.

　If I hadn’t asked for leave just now, and the editor gave me a recommendation today, I would have asked for leave again... I don’t know what’s going on with this copy.
