The huge LED display on the building on the corner of the street not far from the window is broadcasting the news: "A poisonous gas leak occurred in an abandoned factory yesterday. After the efforts of the rescuers, the situation was finally brought under control. Unfortunately, except for one Except for the six-year-old girl, all the other eleven people were killed..."

"Poison gas incident..." Gumen Kazuki in the war room looked at the news reports on the computer in front of him, and he felt uncomfortable. The truth of the facts was concealed again. He didn't know whether this approach was good or bad. In the task, both the explainer and the other members of the night raid team seemed to take the elimination of the alien beasts as the first task, and saving the survivors turned out to be just an incidental task. This made Gumen Yihui, who has always accepted the instillation of the rescue team that human life comes first, somewhat unacceptable. In his opinion, the purpose of destroying alien beasts is to protect people, but he cannot ignore other people.

Koto Kazuki sat silently on the chair, raised his head after a while and said, "What kind of experience is it to be erased from memory?"

Hiraki Shiori, who was concentrating on painting her nails, said without raising her head: "I don't know, but it must be very uncomfortable. It's obviously my own memory that disappeared for no reason. It's a bad feeling no matter how you think about it." .”

"Why should the memory of these victims be erased..."

"Not only the victims, but witnesses will also have their memory erased." Before Koto Kazuki finished speaking, Ishibori Mitsuhiko, who was fiddling with the computer, turned around and said, "For example, if Gumen wants to quit the night raid team, Then your corresponding memory will also be erased, and replaced with a brand new work file and resume, which details your work experience during this period of time, and of course, compensation for accidents that lost your memory..."

"Will we also have our memories erased?" Gumen Kazuki suddenly remembered that when he first came to the Fort of Liberty, the administrator Matsunaga once told him whether he was ready, and if not, he You can go back to your original life.

"Don't think too much," Ishihori Mitsuhiko comforted with a smile, "TLT is a highly confidential unit, not to mention other things, there is still a deep place under our feet, but we can't even go to the place three floors down."

"I just feel like this...it's not good, I don't know anything..." Koto Kazuki whispered.

"So what can they do if they know?" Captain Hekura Yingfu's voice sounded at the door, and he said in a very gentle tone: "Knowing that I live in a world full of monsters, I am afraid of monsters that may appear all day long." , is that kind of life what people want?"

Sitting next to Gumen Yihui, he said softly, "You have been assigned to the night raid team for two months, and you have learned about the night raid team and TLT. You will find that your current life and The world I used to live in is completely different. There will also be a lot of doubts and incomprehensions, basically every team member will have such doubts, and don’t understand which is real and which is illusory between the current life and the peaceful life before.”

"Captain, have you ever had any doubts?" Kodo Kazuki raised his head and looked at Wakura Yingsuke who was leaning on the table.

"Of course, I want to know what the hell is the alien beast? Why did it appear on the earth? And why the alien beast only appears in the suburbs. If you want to eat people, wouldn't it be better not to attack the densely populated big cities? The more I think about it, the more questions I have, and the more questions I have, the more doubts I have." Captain He Cang Yingfu said eloquently.

"Captain, do you mean to let me stop thinking about these problems?" Kodo Kazuki stared at Hekura Yingfu with a puzzled face: "Hide all your questions, pretend that nothing happened, and keep silent Follow orders and carry out tasks."

Captain Hekura Yingfu was silent for a moment, looked at Gumen Kazuki with a stubborn face and said: "Gumen, it is the duty of our night raid team to follow orders and complete tasks. As for how to think about these questions, it's up to you, I think What kind of world is the reality that can be believed, do you think it is really good for those who were attacked by the alien beasts to keep those memories?"

After finishing speaking, Captain Eisuke Wakura turned around and walked out of the room. Guto Kazuki sat there silently, and returned to his room after a long time. However, there was only one bed, one set of desk and chairs in the room of ten square meters. There is a closet, and there is a photo on the only table. On it, Koto Kazuki and Saitian Riko are smiling and snuggling together and laughing happily.

Koto Kazuki picked up the photo on the table, saw his girlfriend's smile and couldn't help laughing, and the troubles in his heart dissipated a lot.

Recalling the little girl holding the puppy, if she had the memory of the alien beast attack, then she must be afraid of having nightmares. Koto Kazuki said to himself in his heart: "It's better to get rid of those terrible memories than to leave those terrible memories and feel scared."

The night sky outside is full of stars, and the twinkling stars make the cold night less monotonous. Under the night sky, in a bustling city, there are bright lights and colorful neon lights everywhere. The night is in this city that never sleeps. has lost its meaning.

In a seven-story residential building, most of the rooms are lit. In a room on the fifth floor, Saitian Riko is concentrating on painting the warmth in her heart with a brush. With one stroke, On the white drawing paper, there is a tiger lying lazily on the ground.

"Clatter!" Suddenly the curtains on the balcony fluttered, and at the same time a gust of cold wind blew through the door, causing Saitian Lizi, who was completely absorbed in painting, to feel cold all over her body, and her hands couldn't help shaking. Immediately, an ugly black line appeared on the tiger's neck that had been drawn, separating the tiger's head from its body, which looked very uncoordinated.

"Alas!" Saitian Riko looked at the ruined painting with a wry smile, shook her head and put down her brush, stood up and walked towards the balcony, trying to close the balcony door.

She walked to the balcony step by step. From the living room, she could clearly see the dark night outside. There was a clear boundary between light and night. Saitian Riko's originally agile eyes became dull little by little, and her movements gradually became stiff, like a puppet being lifted by a string, she walked out of the house full of light and walked to the rooftop full of night On the ground, stood there blankly looking at the sky covering the entire earth.

An ethereal voice drifted into Riko Saita's ears with the wind: "You are a puppet, a puppet that has no thoughts of its own and only obeys orders..."
