You Huo woke up at the end of that year. After the emergency treatment, he moved to Munich and continued to recuperate there.

Four months later, Qin Jue, who had been wandering on the brink of death, finally escaped from danger and opened his eyes in the medical center in the system.

Regarding this sudden change, the system issued an announcement to explain it as a serious bug. All candidates were blocked in rest areas, the invigilator was blocked in the invigilator area, and all examination rooms were closed, and the longest time of self-testing and adjustments in history were carried out.

After the repair period of the main control center has passed, the system reaches out to the invigilator, all the original rankings have been abolished, and all serial numbers have been disrupted and repeated.

Chu Yue was removed from the title of invigilator and transferred to the most remote resting place. She was not surprised. After all, she had discussed with A a long time ago the end of "rebellion". Other invigilators who were familiar with them were invigilator, and the derogatory was invigilator.

The system is like having suspicious diseases, moving around, and the most moving are all the initial invigilators, because they are the people who are the most familiar with it.

The invigilator area is therefore full of rumors, and everyone is guessing what happened, what happened to examiner A and examiner Gin.

Given that the two people always act incompatible with each other, in most people's speculation, one person always did something, and the other person tried his best to stop it, and both sides were in the end. There were also a very small number of people who said that they might join forces at critical moments.

Until the system gradually cleared the traces of examiner a one after another and set Qin Ju's ranking at 001, all kinds of speculation finally came to an abrupt end.

Because there is no need to guess, this result can explain everything.

Before leaving the medical center, Qin Jue became a thorn in the eyes of many initial invigilators.

Examiner a former friend Gao Qi was drunk all day long and confused. Once, he almost made a big fuss in the special care unit after drinking too much. He quickly mixed himself into the tail of the crane in the invigilator, number 1006.

Soon after, the system drew a group of people from the candidates and joined the invigilator's team. A girl from the military academy asked to go to the 001 group, but she failed to get what she wanted. She was eventually assigned to the ninth group and entered the invigilator's superior area with a person's instructions, number 021.

A month later, Qin Jue was discharged from the hospital and became the new chief invigilator. The system screened out the second batch of new examiners from the candidates, and the fragments of the system released by Qin Jue were mixed in. He became one of the earliest subordinates of 001, number 154.

Several months later, the candidate Wen Yuan was transferred to the invigilator by chance and also became a subordinate of 001, number 922.

From that day on, no matter where the examiner 001 went, these two people would always be there.

They followed Qin Jue to handle the daily affairs that the examiner had to deal with, held meetings of various sizes, watched the records and documents piled up in mountains on the screen, and walked through more than 200 examination rooms.

Then one day, when he was randomly choosing the examination room, 154 saw a familiar figure among countless people waiting to take the exam. He set the invigilator target there without hesitation.

The candidate is called You Huo, who is the examiner who was removed from the system.

Time in the system is chaotic.

I often spend ten days in the examination room and return to the resting place. The calendar has just turned one page. The resting place No. 1 has turned to late autumn, and the second may still be early spring. Only by standing on the street in the invigilator area can you see the shadow of the flow of time, because it is least affected by the various examination rooms, and the sun, moon and reality are almost the same.

The invigilators are all used to this kind of chaos. They count the time wherever they are. They say that the sun, moon and every second will look at their phones. But when they talk about "year", the timing of the invigilator area must be based on the timing.

On that night in the mountains, Qin Jue held a notice of violation and pushed open the door of the hunter's wooden house in the wind and snow.

The roomful of candidates looked at him in panic, with only one exception.

He saw the man at a glance, and under the reflection of the clear yellow fire, he was like a handful of wind and snow that had entered the wrong way.

At that moment, three years have passed since they were separated.

Three years were a long day and night that was too blind to count when You Huo, and the more than 700 days he spent alone later. For Qin Jue, including those in the examination room and rest place, there were more than 2,000 days in total.

Two thousand three hundred and twelve days, they met in the cold wind and snow.

I thought it was the first meeting, but it was actually a reunion.

...

Memories came one after another, and they all squeezed into the chest cavity without falling a single trace. The heart was so swollen that it hurt. It was too full or too heavy.

The fire in the core area was closed behind the door by 154, but the heat wave did not decrease. Perhaps it was because the temperature was too high and the fire just now was too strong, making people's eyes sore and hot.

You Huo lowered his head and took a few heavy breaths, and his hands hanging on his side clenched into a fist. The air poured into his lungs, but it did not make the heart lighter. Satisfaction and pain existed at the same time, squeezing each other, with nowhere to be placed and unable to dissolve.

He closed his eyes for a while, then raised his eyes and saw Qin Jue tilting his head, protruding Adam's apple slid twice between his neck, something deep wrapped around him, like an invisible fire, which would soon burn. Qin Jue finally saw it, his eyes were red.

Suddenly someone screamed: "Brother, your hand!"

You Huo looked down and saw the back of his right hand was blood red - the cleaning procedure that happened every 10 seconds was activated again, and the red light moved over. The back of his hand was just touched, and blood was dripping from him, and at that moment he only had Qin Jue in his eyes, and he couldn't feel the pain.

Another person's body temperature was wrapped.

"Go out first." Qin Jue's voice was hoarse and he rang in his ears.

The next second, they stepped on the red tail and crashed into the third door.

The scene in the door is completely different from the main control center in memory. You Huo did not see the familiar forest, nor did he see the metal fortress with the words Na, nor did he see the phantom of the city in the distance.

This looks like a semi-closed laboratory, with a screen and a simplified main console on one side, and a fog on the other side.

"After you happened, the main control center was cut, and the most core ones were not here." 154 explained while driving a road to the rest as quickly as possible.

Memory recovery is only a moment, but it takes a long time to digest. In those few minutes, all people with changes in memory are almost inconsistency. Those with smaller changes can still come back to their senses. For example, those with larger changes, such as 922, were dragged by Yu Wen and Lao Yu throughout the whole process.

They divided into three batches and finally met in the third door.

Chu Yue's eyes also had a circle of red. She looked at Qin Jue for a while and then You Huo, and asked softly: "Is it okay?"

They nodded.

When You Huo heard something he said, Chu Yue let out a long sigh.

154 took the time to look back in the busy life, looked at him and asked another question, and he also answered.

He and Qin Jue must have looked so calm that Old Yu and Yu Wen came over to see them for a while, and then moved away with confidence.

But in fact, what they said and did later, and Youhuo had no impression of it.

He could only feel a fire standing beside him, burning all the time. He probably did the same.

They just restrained all their personal emotions in front of others and pressed them tightly. This may be too difficult for others, but not for them, because they were doing such things every day long ago.

The road to the resting place opened quickly and was unexpectedly successful.

154 frowned and muttered repeatedly: "It's strange. It didn't trigger any alarm program, nor did it have too complicated defenses. It shouldn't be..."

Wu Li asked: "How difficult will it be under normal circumstances?"

"That's not what it means. After all, there are no people who are brave enough to do things here. There is no normal situation. But..." 154 said: "I thought the system would at least open a few additional attack defense programs, but there was no."

Along the way, 154 has been clearing the traces as fast as possible. It is not ruled out that he cleaned it up too timely and they are lucky enough, so the system's final qualitative trouble level is not too high, so it doesn't take much effort.

But...the possibility is really too small.

154 I believe it was intentional and it had other plans.

However, they don’t have so much time to think about this. Since they have reached this point, it is too late to turn back and it does not fit their personality. It is better to continue as planned.

They passed through the fog one after another, and in the process, 154 had a heart hanging. They were afraid that halfway through, the system suddenly woke up and cut off the passage and spread them out.

But the facts are not, they are still going well.

Everyone came out of the thick fog and saw silver-gray tall buildings, metal towers, large warehouse-style buildings, with some simple rows of buildings in the middle, which at first glance looked like a dormitory for schools or troops. The rows of buildings were wrapped around the courtyard walls, and metal signs were hung outside the walls, and black words were engraved: Rest place center hotel.

It was Yu Wen and the others who came here for the first time. They opened their mouths and were stunned for a long time before asking: "What is the rest place this is? What are you doing?"

154 said: "No. 2, also known as the arsenal."

"Did you let us get the equipment?"

“Equipment is one aspect, not just because of this.” 154 explained: “It’s also because it’s special.”

As they spoke, You Huo looked up further away.

There, three silver-gray towers built with steel bars and metal leather are the most iconic buildings here. A long time ago, when You Huo was still an examiner, you often looked at the shadows of these buildings in the smoke.

But it's not here, but in the former main control center.

Every time you pass through that woods, through the circle of metal mesh, and towards the metal fortress in the main control center, You Huo will look to the sky, and there are phantoms of tall buildings there, which often reminds people of the city covered in fog in the early morning.

That phantom is the resting place No. 2.

The last time You Huo looked at it like this was three years ago. He was holding a local self-destructive program button in his hand. There was smoke in front of him and a large area of ​​blood behind him. He closed his eyes in the sky light and pressed the button. The intense stinging suddenly burst into his eyes.

He bent down at that moment, and after a moment he stood up straight again. He pursed his lips and opened his eyes in continuous pain. The skylight was getting darker, and the shadow of the tall buildings in the distance had become blurred. He was about to lose sight of it soon, but he knew that in the other corner of the ruins, someone was still waiting for him. He needed to walk over and take another look before the light completely disappeared.

...

"Where is the special thing?" Yu Wen was still twittering.

"Our special place was once China Unicom's main control center, as long as you have permission and know the way." 154 said.

"Really?!" Yu Wen was a little excited: "Then let's get some weapons now?"

154 said: "It's not OK. You are all black people now. Once you enter the arsenal, the alarm sounds can be heard in pieces. Find a place to stay first and give me some time."

He led everyone around the regular hotel, walked through two abandoned areas, and walked to a row of dilapidated buildings and said, "This is the hotel in the past. It looks broken. It is actually OK inside. I can open water and electricity for you."

"Hotel? How did that turn out to be like this?"

"Because when these two rebelled, they got a lot of weapons from here and entered the main control center, and they were walking the hotel road." 154 pointed at Qin Jue and You Huo and said, "The system was furious and scrapped this place."

"So can you still go to the main control center from here now?"

"I think so beautifully." 154 said: "Of course I have to find the entrance again."

"Are you sure there is an entrance?" Yang Shu said: "If it were me, I would be beaten to death."

"So you're not a system," 154 said. "The main control center must be guaranteed to have sufficient ordnance firepower support. For the system, the risk of reopening an entrance was even small before."

"I'll make do with it here for one night first. I'll open the block and wait for everyone."

Everyone went upstairs one after another, 154 turned on all rooms, and the lights and the sound of water appeared at the same time. Their tense nerves finally felt a little relaxed, and the fatigue that had accumulated for a long time swept over.
To be continued...
