    ☆, Chapter 54 Jumping into the sea

    The moment the video lights up.

    Qin Zhu’s first reaction was to check to see if the connector of the charging cable was securely plugged in, so as not to cut off the power halfway through.

    It wasn’t until he pinched the end of the data cable and pressed it tightly that he was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

    How to say…

    If he were a bystander at this moment and saw 922 or 154 doing this, he would definitely feel that they were nervous.

    he Qin Zhu has lived for thirty years, at least in his current memory, this is the first time he has been like this.

    And this emotion comes out of nowhere and is inexplicable.

    It is obvious that he is just a person who is not often thought of and has never shown his face in memories, but it seems…

    He felt like he had been waiting for this look for a long time.

    The scene at the beginning of the video flies by very quickly, from an empty street to an ordinary apartment building, then to a commercial block, and finally to the face of a boy.

    The boy looked very haggard, with heavy blue shadows under his eyes, but his eyes were still bright and energetic.

    This is Zhao Wentu who has not yet become a villager.

    It wasn’t until he saw this video that Qin Jiu suddenly realized that the person who wrote “Brother Qin” longer than “Brother Qin” in his diary all day long was a big boy who had not graduated from college.

    he Turn on the sound on your phone.

    Zhao Wentu’s voice rang out: “——I just left the apartment and went out for a walk to eat. This is the street today. I can’t hit anyone with my stick, not even birds.”

    The camera turned back to the empty street.

    Zhao Wentu explained: “Did you see that there is white mist all the way to the end? That’s where we walked from the examination room. We passed through the white mist and entered the rest area. I have been thinking about it for the past two days. If I walk over now and get out of the white mist, what will I see? Will there be monsters in the fog? Or will I go back to the last round of examination room? Or go to another place?”

    The camera jolts slightly as he steps.

    As the boy said this, he really walked towards Bai Wu.

    “Forget it, forget it, I’m a little timid. I’ll just go with it – eh?” Zhao Wentu suddenly paused as he spoke.

    The camera shakes.

    “Holy shit, I’m scared. Why are there people walking straight in from there…” he muttered.

    Because of fright, he seemed to turn his head and ran away for two steps.

    But soon he stopped again.

    “Wait a minute… That seems to be my brother Qin!”

    Zhao Wentu’s tone was a little happy.

    The camera shook again, accompanied by a cacophony of noises.

    But it soon stabilized again.

    Judging from the branches passing by, he seems to have avoided the roadside and stood next to a certain wall.

    Zhao Wentu’s voice suddenly became clear, as if he was speaking quietly close to the microphone.

    “Examiner A! That Examiner A is here too, standing with Brother Qin, and I don’t know what he’s talking about. The apartment service desk said that invigilators usually don’t come to the rest area. This is probably the only time I took a picture of the invigilator… Rounding it off, it’s the system. I hope that when I pass the exam alive, this video will not turn into flying sand and snowflakes in the desert.”

    “Come…see the God of Plague…”

    Following Zhao Wentu’s words, the camera focused on that street corner again.

    The place that had been empty suddenly became popular.

    A car parked on the street, low-key black, gradually overlapped with the one-sided image in Qin Zhu’s memory.

    There were two people standing next to the car. They were both very tall, making a dusty newsstand not far away seem a bit small.

    However, the one on the left moved a few centimeters and was even taller.

    He hung his coat on his elbow. After saying a few words, he leaned against the car door behind him. The collar of his shirt was unbuttoned and left open casually.The clasped arms outline the muscles.

    That was Qin Zhu himself a few years ago.

    The outline of his facial features has not changed much, except that his hair is slightly shorter, his expression is more arrogant, and his lazy and arrogant temperament is more outgoing.

    As for the person next to he…

    Even if the camera is very far away, you can still see that he is an extremely handsome young man, his skin is still dazzlingly white in the setting sun.

    He was wearing the simplest plain shirt, military green trousers, and his calves were wrapped in standard leather boots, which were long and straight.When he listens to people talking, he always lowers his eyebrows and eyes, coldly, and seems a little sleepy.

    Like a narrow knife tucked into a long sheath.

    This set of clothes occasionally appears in the information left behind by the system. It is the uniform of the earliest batch of invigilators.But in the missing pictures, no one appears to be dressed so appropriately.

    The phone flashed again, and a brief blurred screen appeared for two seconds.

    Qin Jiu seemed not to notice it, his eyes were fixed on it and he remained motionless.

    When the blurry screen disappears, the scene in the lens gradually zooms in.

    Zhao Wentu was halfway through the photo shoot when he felt that the distance was too far to record all the details of the two people, so he turned the distant view into a close-up.

    The young man’s appearance clearly appeared in the center of the camera…

    The familiar eyebrows, the familiar corners of the lips, even the impatience revealed when he occasionally frowns and the movement of touching his earlobe… are all very familiar.

    The only difference is that he’s earlobes are clean and he doesn’t have those dazzling earrings.

    Less than two hours ago, he was still standing in this solitary room, standing next to Qin Zhu.

    We have known each other for less than a month.

    Here, Qin Jiu calls him “top student” and the system calls him “candidate Youhuo”.

    In this video from many years ago, he was “Examiner A”.

    Qin Jiu saw himself stepping away from the car a few years ago, standing up straight, and saying something.

    Due to the angle, he couldn’t lip read the content.

    Examiner A walked straight past he, walked around to the driver’s seat and opened the door.

    He held on to the roof of the car and said something lukewarm.

    This time, Qin Zhu saw it clearly.

    He said: “To lend you auspicious words, it would be best if we never see each other again.”

    Qin Zhu, who had his back to the camera, raised his hand to touch his forehead and tapped his ear, as if to express casually that he had heard it and would not see him again.

    The street corner in the shot should be in late autumn, and even the setting sun has a slight coolness.

    The dead leaves on the wall fell to the ground and swirled in the wind vortex.

    Examiner A got into the driver’s seat.

    After a while, the car changed direction and gradually accelerated along the street. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the white mist and disappeared.

    This time the confinement was lifted, it was supposed to be 078.

    The warrior sat in the lounge for an hour, and suddenly realized that he had mentioned some things that he shouldn’t have mentioned, at least unpleasant things, which made 001 unhappy.

    He thought about it, decided not to cause trouble, and temporarily changed positions with 922.

    922 was still frightened by the previous rocket launcher, and was afraid of hitting the warhead when entering the door, so he knocked on the door before unlocking it.

    No one answered…

    The soundproofing effect of the confinement room is quite good, and it is quiet outside the door.

    922 knocked on the door again, but still got no reply.

    He thought for a while with a weird look on his face, and then took the initiative to open the lock.

    “Boss, the confinement time is over.”

    He said as he got into the door and was stunned as soon as he turned around.

    Qin Jiu is not absent.

    He was standing there, very close to the door of the solitary cell.He held an old mobile phone in his hand, and there was a rustling noise coming from it.

    I don’t know what was playing, but he kept looking at the screen steadily, unaware that anyone came in.

    “Boss?”

    “…”

    922 was puzzled and walked to Qin Zhu.

    When he looked at his phone, the video was in the second half.

    After only watching it for a few seconds, he also froze.

    I recognize that early invigilator uniform 922.

    922 also recognizes Youhuo’s face.

    But when the two are put together…he suddenly doesn’t recognize them.

    It wasn’t until the video started playing in a loop again that 922 suddenly came back to his senses.

    There was a knock on the door outside, and 154’s voice came in vaguely.

    “922? Where are the people? Did you get lost after picking up the boss?”

    922 was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around again, Qin Zhu had also raised his eyes.

    “Boss…” 922 pointed at the screen and then pointed outside the door: “Then why is who here? Isn’t that the earliest batch of invigilator uniforms? Why is he wearing that?”

    “Who is this picture taken of?”

    There was a sound of unlocking outside the door.

    The moment the door to the confinement room opened, Qin Zhu squinted his eyes in the light that suddenly shone in.

    I don’t know how long they have been delayed here, but there are already several people waiting in the corridor of the cabin.

    154 breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them, and said angrily: “I was shocked, I thought something happened. Today’s round of confinement is really…”

    Next to it, 021 added: “Exhausted both physically and mentally.”

    154 nodded subconsciously, glanced at Qin Zhu and immediately shook his head and said, “It’s okay.”

    Next to them, Youhuo was leaning against the porthole and waiting lazily, subconsciously touching his earrings with one hand.He raised his eyelids, his light brown eyes were reflected transparently by the oil lamp, and looked towards Qin Zhu.

    At that moment, he’s expression gradually overlapped with that of Examiner A in the video.

    It seems like it has never changed over the years.

    Qin Zhu’s lips moved.

    Somehow, he turned off the phone screen and put it in his coat pocket. He looked at You Huo deeply and said to 922, “No one.”

    922: “…”

    Am I blind…………

    On the way back, the atmosphere in the entire cabin was extremely strange.

    154A person who is so resistant feels a little overwhelmed.But he couldn’t tell what was wrong for a while.

    It wasn’t until the small white boat docked and he watched the two men crawling into the stone cave in the sea breeze that he suddenly realized…

    The two plague gods didn’t rush to 922 for late-night snacks?

    “Did something happen in the confinement room? Why do I feel that the boss is not in the right mood? You are the same, you have been swimming like a wandering spirit since you came out, what are you thinking about?” he cupped 922, who had left his body.

    922 tilted his head and looked at he steadily.

    Everything in the video spun quickly…

    It is known that that uniform was only worn by the earliest batch of invigilators, and later became casual.

    It is also known that most of the earliest batch of invigilators 922 have been seen. Even if they have not met in person, they have seen photos and materials.

    Except for one person…

    Examiner A…

    922 grabbed 154 and said “fuck!”

    Just as he was about to speak, he missed the mark.

    Just two pops and pops were heard, and 154 was dragged straight into the sea by this unlucky colleague.
