Thriller Paradise

769. Chapter 769 Dave's World (20)

    December 25, 2102.

    Maine, a small town.

    In the early morning, a nine-year-old boy woke up from a dream and stretched out beautifully.

    He blinked and looked at the alarm clock beside the bed, then jumped out of bed and ran downstairs in his pajamas.

    "Wow!"A minute later, the little boy shouted and shouted in the living room on the first floor.

    "Mom~Mom~" After a few minutes, he ran upstairs cheerfully, ran into his mother's room, and jumped into bed, excitedly said, "What did Santa give me?"

    The mother on the bed smiled and squinted back; "Oh…It seems that you are a postman now, my little candy. ”

    The little boy grinned and helped the messenger cap on the head, and bowed to the mother: "I am willing to help you!"

    The mother reached out and squeezed the child's face: "Well, Mr. Postman, go back to the room and put on your clothes, be careful."

    Yes MrsThe little boy screamed loudly and jumped out.

    Looking at the back of the child's departure, a warm smile appeared on the mother's face.

    After a few seconds, she seemed to think of something, and her look suddenly became a bit. And her sight, instinctively turned to the bedside table…

    On the cabinet, there is a photo frame, and the photos in the photo frame are not too old. In the photo, there is a family of three – handsome father, beautiful mother, and a cute little boy.

    "Mom, when is Dad going home?"Two years ago on Christmas, the little boy had asked his mother like this.

    But his mother just hugged him and couldn't even say a whole word.

    On Christmas Eve that year, the little boy’s father, after getting off work from the post office, rode his bicycle and went straight to the shopping center to buy a toy for the child, but on the way back…A car accident took his life.

    From then on, the family left only their mother and son to live together.

…………

    "Wear the hat, yes, that's it."

    At half past eight in the morning, after confirming that the son had been dressed neatly, the mother took the hand of the little boy and went out with him.

    "Hey, Mr. Ma Wen, good morning."

    "Merry Christmas, Mrs. Dave. Hey~ Hey, who is this little postman? ”

    Their neighbor is an elderly black couple who meets on weekdays and always say hello.

    "Hello, Mr. Fuld."

    “Um? Uh……Hello, Mrs. Dave. ”

    Another neighbor, Fuld, is a fat man. The entire neighborhood knows that he is a single dead house. Usually, people can only see him when he goes out to dump garbage.

    "Mom, why is Mr. Fuld always a listless look?"After walking out of this street, Dave looked up and asked her mother.

    "Because he is in a place where he doesn't see the sun all day, eating junk food, he doesn't do anything serious."Mother replied.

    "Does he not have to work?"Little Dave asked curiously.

    "Mr. Fuld has inherited a large legacy from a distant relative, so he does not have to work."Mother replied.

    "Oh, he is such a lucky person, mother."Little Dave took the lead.

    "Yes, he is very lucky…"Mother muttered, and then stopped.

    After thinking for a few seconds, she squatted down and let her eyes stay flat with her son, and revealed a harsh look: "Listen, Dave, you have to be like a dad, be a hard-working person, don't go A person like Mr. Fuld. You have to understand…Not everyone is so lucky. ”

    "Well, I will, mother."Little Dave nodded and seemed to understand the words.

…………

    At nine in the morning, they came to the park in the town.

    Many adults have been seated on the benches next to the children's playground, and some stalls selling snacks, drinks and toys have also been put up.

    Dave soon joined the ranks of other children and went to the side to play.

    Mrs. Dave sat on the bench and chatted with other housewives.

    Half an hour later, an old man walked over to her side and greeted her: "Hey, Wendy, I haven't seen you for a long time."

    "Hey, hello, Director Nelson."

    "I have been there, I saw you, and came over and said hello. Merry Christmas, Wendy. ”

    "Merry Christmas, Mr. Nelson. By the way, is your wife still okay? ”

    "Not bad, I am taking the children at home to prepare for the party, so I can only come to the park with my granddaughter."

    Interesting…I thought you like children very much. ”

    "Yes, I like them, but I don't have them."He shrugged and said, after a few seconds, he seemed to see something, "Hey? Is that a street performance? ”

    “hmm…Oh, yes. ”Mrs. Dave looked at each other's eyes and saw the two performers in the distance. "That is the 'shooter and Yang'. They are volunteers in the community. They often go to the park and the elderly. The children are very good. Like them."

    "Oh?"Nelson seems to be interested. "Then I have to go and see…"

    They soon came alongside a small truck and stood with other parents behind a group of bear children.

    The expectations of the small audience in the front row for the performance were obviously very high. As early as the shooter and Yang set up the stage, the children had already gathered around and sat down with their knees; this naturally included Nelson’s granddaughter and Xiao Dai. husband.

    "Okay~ Kids, the show is about to begin~"

    After preparing to stop, the two stars starred on the simple stage next to the truck. They both…One is a big beard dressed as a western cowboy, and the other is a bald head wearing a shirt and a suit vest.

    "Children~ Today, we are going to perform…Very thrilling…Amazing…Darts shoot apples! ”

    Although it doesn't sound like a fun show, it's ok…The children were also very happy to give applause and laughter.

…………

    Hey – hehe…

    The sound of the liquid swelled in the ear.

    At the same time, he got into his mind, and there was a memory clip of the previous paragraph…

    [Warning, tester 8775 is waking up…Warning, the tester's brain produces an impulse response, the source is unknown, please adjust immediately…]The mechanized voice also came again.

    "It hurts to die…"This time, when I felt a bite, I opened my eyes directly. "Cut…Still can't talk. No matter what…It’s ok to see and think…"

    As he pondered, he turned his eyeball and observed the surrounding environment as much as possible.

    I see……I am also soaked in liquid…"He soon realized that he was wearing a light-colored bodysuit and floating in a glass container filled with liquid. Its state…The same thing that he saw when he last "opened his eyes" (if he is also called Enoch in this world) is the same.

    "The nasal cavity, the lungs, and the ears are all filled with this unidentified gadget, but there is no obvious discomfort or suffocation; when the eye opens, the eyeball is a bit sour, but after a few seconds, it adapts. Blinking in the water is easy…"Unconsciously, the line of sight is violent, and the mind is flashing. "No matter what the liquid is, it is definitely not the technological product that the universe should have in 2002…Could it be…Is the setting of matrix? ”He quickly denied the idea. "No, the scorpion is still there. The body that is soaked in the tank all year round will not have this kind of thing…"

    [Warning, the tester's brainwave is overclocked, the test data exceeds the normal value, and the forced abort program will be started after twenty seconds. 】

    "What is this test? Mental Status Brain function? ”I don’t feel the system voice, I guess my situation.

    “Anton!” You bastard How did you wake up again? ”

    "Sir, Anton, he went to the toilet."

    /WTF/!?

    UhHe said that he had eaten something unclean at lunch. ”

    "Okay, you don't have to explain it for him. Go to the console and get things done." Anton guy…I will pick him up later…"

    "Yes, sir."

    The two people who spoke outside the liquid container were the last two people. Judging from their dialogue, they should be the staff responsible for this "test" and the relationship between them.

    "Call ~~~~~~"Dude, you really will find me trouble…"A few seconds later, a vague shadow came to the front of the container where he was not aware of it. He said to himself with a low voice. "Your test value is almost up to standard, and you keep waking up…YeahHe indulged, and then gave another sneer, "Hey…Forget it, I will help you, add some material to you…Please come over quickly, don't mess up with me…"

    When I heard this sentence, I didn’t want to go out of the container and hug the NPC. Although he does not fully understand the meaning of the other party, he already understands…The NPC, whose name and looks are unclear, is the man who can really help him see the "truth."

    Those who exist on the level of “emptiness” can only give the answer of “nothingness”; and those who exist in “reality” can give him “reality”.

    [In the solution concentration enhancement, special solvents are added…The forced abort program has been closed, an emergency pulse is being prepared, and the countdown is five seconds, five, four, three, two, one…

    Oh…

    At the moment of being "pulsed", I heard a familiar voice. He pondered a little…I feel that the sound of this movement and the ghost postman cycling seems to be the same.

    In the same second, another wave of memory fragments flashed in front of their eyes…

…………

    "Oh ah–" A bloody old man was stunned on the marble floor.

    When his consciousness returned to the gorgeous hall, he still kept the position of the phone to the ground.

    The time here…It's as if it hasn't flowed at all.

    "Are you finding the answer?"The six people around the seal, once again said the same sentence in unison.

    "Heng!"He felt a sneer at the corner of his mouth. He slowly stood up and walked to the long table at the far end of the hall. "I think…It’s almost time to have a meal. ”
