Nomenclature of Night

  Chapter 691 The retracted fist

   Countdown to 168:00:00.

  The world is bright again.

  The square on Whale Island was silent at first, and then the crowd began to weep, and finally everyone burst into tears together.

  There are 4811 time walkers in the academy, and there are 4139 remaining at this time. Because of participating in the defense of the lower third area, almost everyone except those children was injured.

   Among the 132 family members from No. 10 city who landed on the island, 19 were killed and 113 remained.

   Everyone is also injured.

   And Kunlun...everyone was killed.

  Qing Chen stood silently on the square, he couldn't even bear to look at the skeletons of Kunlun members, there were 631 skeletons, only iodophor's body was still intact.

   But I saw that there was no flesh and blood on the neck of iodophor, only bones remained, and the **** hands were bitten, but they still tightly protected their abdomen.

   There is 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 move iodophor's hands away, but those hands were still tightly held, unable to be pulled apart at all.

   Lu Yuan squatted beside the corpse, wiping away tears, crying so hard that he couldn't speak.

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

  Qing Chen came over and whispered, "I'll do it."

   As he said, he bent down to lift iodophor's arm, and the arm that was tightly held was loosened the moment Qing Chen touched it.

  Qing Chen froze for a moment.

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

   The 12 slotted hard drives in the abdomen were given to Qing Chen by iodophor, so no one except Qing Chen could take them.

   It wasn't until Qing Chen arrived that his body relaxed.

  This is against common medical knowledge. Qing Chen heard that someone would close his eyes only after seeing his relatives after death. He always thought it was just some kind of coincidence or rumor.

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

  Qing Chen couldn't control himself a little bit. He took several deep breaths before making up his mind to gently open the iodophor's abdomen and take out the sealed bag.

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

  At this time, some time walkers in the academy walked up to Qing Chen and said, "Thank you little dean, thank you, if you didn't come to meet us, we might die too."

   "Thank you little principal."

   "Thank you little dean!"

   Time walkers came to Qing Chen in groups to express their thanks. In that panic environment, Qing Chen led the time walkers back to the lower three districts.

  Sometimes he returned to the depths of the city before the Time Travelers could thank him.

  Those time travelers are not white-eyed wolves, they know very well what Qing Chen has paid for them.

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

   Zheng Yuandong asked: "Qing Chen, what happened in the past seven days in City 10?"

   "Little San, there are still many people here who don't know what happened in City 10, please tell them," Qing Chen said calmly, while he himself sat aside, holding the sealed bag in his hand and looking at the ground.

   Xiaosan summarized what happened in the past 7 days in the square, and made a battle report, which was used to review the game and see what deficiencies everyone still has.

Zheng Yuandong listened quietly for a long time, and then shared the outside information he had learned with Qing Chen: "The various armies have fought in the north for six days, and this time the war is bigger than imagined. There will be no rescue in City 10, so you have to find a way to save yourself."

   "I understand," Qing Chen nodded.

"The number of time walkers surviving far exceeded my imagination. I thought it would be great if a thousand people survived such a disaster," Zheng Yuandong said softly from the side: "Thank you, Qingchen, thank you and the help parents will give them.”

  Qing Chen said in a low voice: "Actually, if I went to Iodo and the others earlier, maybe Iodo and the others would still have a chance to live."

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

"If the roles are reversed, maybe it's your turn to go to the PCE and the Transportation Bureau to pick up the hard drive, while iodophor will lead people away from the defense line again and again, and then try to bring the teams of time travelers back to the lower three districts. But do they have this ability? No, they can't walk through the city as easily as you, and they can't remember so many refuge points."

Zheng Yuandong: "So the final result is that you can still get the hard drive, and Iov will still die for those time travelers and children. This is Iov's responsibility and destiny. Of course, you all completed it very well. The tasks that each other should complete, he is also excellent."

  Qing Chen remained silent.

"Don't think too much, Kunlun's responsibility is to protect these time walkers," Zheng Yuandong said: "If he knows that you have kept so many time walkers, Quanxia Youzhi will be happy. No one in Kunlun will blame you. We have to be mentally prepared for this, and we must believe in our awareness.”

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

   Many time walkers enjoy the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, their bodies are so weak that they can’t even stand up, but everyone knows that they will experience another catastrophe seven days later.

  Qing Chen said suddenly: "We must change this world."

   "Huh?" Zheng Yuandong looked at Qing Chen.

Qing Chen continued: "For his own benefit, Shendai launched this war at all costs, completely ignoring tens of millions of lives in a city. Although other consortiums were restrained on the battlefield and could not complete the rescue, in fact they Just launching a few long-range small missiles would be enough to open the city walls and let the refugees in the lower three districts evacuate, but they didn't do so because they were worried that the rat tide would pass through those gaps and escape to the wilderness in advance. The problem in the inner world is no longer what The problem with a consortium is that the world is sick and needs healing."

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

"It's not enough." Qing Chen seemed to have figured something out, stood up and said, "Please prepare for me a device that can adapt to the hard disk in the other world. In addition, I need a huge office with 640 LCD screens. 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 many purple orchid stars produced on Whale Island to Kunlun as possible, because you are worth it. .”

   After finishing speaking, Qing Chen stood up and looked at Xiaosan: "Everyone go to rest, wake up and count the list of those killed in battle, and build a monument for them on the island."

  Little San said: "I can count now."

Qing Chen shook his head: "Don't worry about it, you've worked hard for the past seven days. Tomorrow, I will inform the Parents' Association that all Time Travelers in City No. 10 are going to go to the island and use chicken blood buds to heal everyone's injuries. There will be a tough battle after returning. To fight. Remember, in these 7 days, everyone must sleep enough, there will be no time to sleep in the next time travel."

   After finishing speaking, Qing Chen turned and walked towards the Agricultural College.

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

  If a person is only dominated by emotions such as anger and sadness, he cannot become a really strong person.

  Just now, Zheng Yuandong was very worried that Qing Chen would go crazy and continue to torture himself, but Qing Chen didn't, he chose to rest.

  So Zheng Yuandong knew that Qing Chen had already understood a truth, a retracted fist was not for admitting defeat, but for punching out better.

  …

  …

   Countdown to 157:00:00.

  Qing Chen slept for 10 hours until he felt his energy had fully recovered.

  Sit up from the reclining chair, Zard and Huan Yu were leaning on his left and right sides and still sound asleep.

  Zard tilted his head, drooling into his collar, while Huan Yu lay on Qingchen's lap, drooling too.

   This should still be Kohane.

  Qing Chen couldn't imagine Dayu sleeping on his lap.

   "Wake up," Qing Chen patted the two of them.

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

  Xiaoyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

  Qing Chen couldn't laugh or cry, it was all about what.

   "Go and ask for whatever you want, and give me a copy in the main teaching building after eating," Qing Chen stood up.

He came to the amphitheater that Kunlun had prepared for him. At this time, the classroom has been remodeled. The blackboard wall and the walls on the left and right sides of the classroom are all neatly hung with 30-inch LCD screens, no more, no less, exactly 640 piece.

   Lu Yuan waited, he looked at Qing Chen suspiciously: "Why do you need so many screens?"

   "I'll find out later," Qing Chen said, "Please number all the screens from 1 to 640 in turn, and then assign me 8 people who can control fast forward, pause, and rewind. Thank you."

   Saying that, Qing Chen walked to the last row of the lecture theater and sat down alone: ​​"Let's get started."

   All 640 screens are lit up, and each screen is a surveillance image, which is continuously played at four times the speed.

   Qingchen's pupils narrowed, and he kept recording the images on each screen in his mind, and then analyzed them with the memory palace.

   "Played from 15 days ago."

   "Screen No. 611 is adjusted to eight times speed."

   "Screen No. 127 is adjusted to eight times speed."

   "Screen No. 531 was played backwards for 48 hours."

   "Screen No. 137 is turned upside down for 48 hours."

  Time passed by one minute and one second.

  Xiaoying said from the side: "There are no mice on these screens? Aren't we looking for mice? I looked at Qingchen's upside-down screen, and there are no mice..."

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

At this time, Qing Chen suddenly said: "Screen No. 137 paused. The man in the brown coat on the screen used to go out at 7:00 every day, take the light rail train on No. 139, and go to the factory on No. 631 to go to work. However , Since the 21st day, he has never been out of the house again, mark it for me, he should have been killed by a rat at home, so he did not go to work."

  The area where the man in the brown coat is located is the first person Qing Chen found with abnormal behavior.

   In the early days, rat swarms would never show up on the streets, let alone appear in road surveillance.

  So if Qing Chen wanted to analyze where the rat swarm first appeared, he had to analyze the behavior of "people" to deduce the trend of the rat swarm.

   What he wants to find in the surveillance is not rats, but those people who suddenly disappeared in the city.

"No. 141 rewinds to 36 hours, 32 minutes and 12 seconds ago, please mark the person on the screen, he was also 48 hours ago, and he has been commuting normally, as has his wife, but suddenly the husband and wife no longer go 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..."

   "Number 153..."

  The expressions of the Kunlun members gradually became dull. It turned out that they could not see the mouse, but they could be found.

  They looked at the boy at the end of the lecture hall in disbelief, who was sitting in the back row calmly, as if all this was taken for granted.

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

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

  Kitty Hawk looked at the map in a hurry. Sometimes he marked the map faster than Qing Chen 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 they both saw the horror in each other's eyes.

   This is the first time that Qing Chen has unreservedly demonstrated his brain's ability in front of outsiders.

   When Qing Chen directs the rewinding of the video, he can be accurate to the second.

  The operator only needs to input the time that Qing Chen needs to rewind, and the screen can be accurately fixed on the person Qing Chen is looking for.

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

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

  Analyze the behavior trajectory of the other party.

   Identify abnormal behavior of the other party.

   Qing Chen is very relaxed when talking about information, but the amount of information hidden behind the behavior trajectory analysis is extremely huge!

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

  As time passed in the surveillance video, more and more people died in the city. Lu Yuan and Ni Ergou could even feel the fear of the more frequent rat tide activities.

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

  The time to watch the monitoring lasts from morning to afternoon.

   After Qing Chen took a few mouthfuls of food, it lasted from afternoon to midnight.

  Everyone felt the disappearing human beings one by one, and felt the harm brought by the rat tide.

   Immersive!

  The Kunlun members who were in charge of controlling Qing Chen all changed their shifts. Only Qing Chen was sitting at the end of the lecture theater, working at the highest intensity as if he had no emotion.

  Lu Yuan suddenly had a sore nose and said: "If Iodofu knows that the video he brought back can turn decay into magic in Qing Chen's hands, he will definitely feel that death is not regrettable...they did not die in vain."

  Qing Chen would not let them die in vain.

   "Stop," Qing Chen looked at those screens and said, "Little Eagle, put up the map of City 10 for me."

   "Hey, okay," Kitty Hawk said excitedly.

  He and three other Kunlun members grabbed a corner of the map and put it upright in front of Qingchen.

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

  On that map, the rat infestation is scattered throughout the city, spreading out from the fifth district as the axis.

  The fifth district is the densest, so dense that the fifth district 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 rat problem broke out.

   "It started from the fifth district. They continued to erode the entire fifth district and turned it into the first granary. The rat king should be there," Qing Chen said.

   "Will it move later?" Lu Yuan asked.

"The 80% probability is still there. After all, in City No. 10 yesterday, District 5 still had the most rats. I now feel that this rat wave 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," Qing Chen said, "and this ethnic group 'Queen Ant' 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 wisdom hub of the ethnic group, and Non-stop breeders of new rat populations."

  Qing Chen: "Of course, it does have the possibility to move to other places, so I still need to continue to observe and monitor to find more clues."

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

  I also saw some weird people on the screen.

  But the first three people had little to do with this rat wave, so he didn't mention them to Kunlun, and those people behind... Qing Chen planned to find them all tomorrow.

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

  Qing Chen stood up and walked out: "It's getting late, everyone, go to bed early, tomorrow we will find out the location of the Mouse King... Thank you for your cooperation, see you tomorrow."

   As he spoke, Qing Chen left the lecture theater without looking back, without any delay.

  …

  5,000-word chapter, there is another chapter at 11:00 p.m.

  (end of this chapter)
