  Chapter 96 Diary Clues and Origins

"I 'm finished."

After rubbing his sleepy eyes, Chu Guang put down the diary and notes extracting key information in his hand, and threw away the pen he held in his hand.

Although he did not find the answer he wanted, the story inside still provided him with many interesting clues.

at first He thought this diary was about a group of survivors who destroyed their humanity and finally transformed into a robber.

The result was summed up later, and it was actually a simple modern version of Farmer and Snake.

There are three main characters in the diary.

The name of the owner of the diary is Li Xiu, an ordinary sports news reporter, tentatively called Xiao Li.

The other is a woman named Sun Lai, tentatively called Xiao Sun.

And the third person is Xiao Sun's husband who serves as a guard in the refuge.

Since the name of the guard is not mentioned in the diary, it is tentatively called the "sufferer".

After reading the entire diary, Chu Guang felt that the Old Brother who lived in the Huangmao diary was really miserable.

The narration at the beginning of the diary is very plain. Xiao Li, who has survived the catastrophe, briefly described what he saw and heard when the nuclear war broke out with the brush strokes of memories.

At that time, the stadium in the northern suburbs of Qingquan City was undergoing a regional basketball game. The second half of the game was going on, and it was an intense and fierce deciding link.

And at this moment, the radio suddenly sounded the alarm of a nuclear strike.

[...Almost everyone did not react, even my assistant thought that this sound effect was a special effect of the active atmosphere arranged by the organizer. However, I still panicked and ran almost instinctively, rushed into the basement instinctively, and found the dormant cabin placed there. When I stepped in with my two feet, I hesitated for a moment. ]

[What if all this is just a bad joke? It only takes a month for my audience to forget me thoroughly, and I will have nothing... But in the end I closed the door and turned on the safety of the start button. ]

[The surrounding area started to get cold, and my consciousness went away a little bit. And when I opened my eyes again and pushed open the hatch, the mechanical watch on the door told me with facts that a nuclear war did happen. I slept for more than three years. Now things have remained the same, but people have changed. . I bet right, but I don’t feel lucky at all... I would rather be wrong. Everything is just a botched joke, at least I can get a lot of compensation from the organizer. Or let it all end three years ago, dying in a utopia is not a bad thing, but being alive is a torture. 】

In the following paragraph, from his perspective, Xiao Li described the scenes he saw on the street at that time.

Fragmented streets, riddled concrete buildings, and corpses that were randomly abandoned on the streets to be eaten by crows-everything is like hell.

It's so desperate to suffocate! It is   obviously August, but the sky is already snowing. In the gray sky, you can't see the sun, nor can you feel any warmth.

Wandering aimlessly on the street.

Finally, before he fell, he found a group of pitiful persons who had also survived in the scrap tire factory in the vicinity.

In that era when humanity was far from annihilated, the survivors of the tire factory rescued him, and he also met a woman named Sun Lai there.

The woman was a nurse and took a child less than 7 years old. She separated from her husband when the nuclear bomb broke out. She has been looking for her husband for these years.

Li Xiu sympathized with her and expressed willingness to help her.

At the time of writing, there was a yellowed photo in the diary, which was a group photo of the two of them. Although the woman's face was covered with traces of wind and frost, she could see her beautiful appearance.

Chu Guang didn’t care about their emotional development or the complicated ethical entanglements, so he quickly skipped at least 30 pages of psychological activities and detailed descriptions-until he finally saw the real Clues that interest him.

Both Xiao Li and Xiao Sun assembled a primordial but reliable radio from the searched parts and successfully listened to a radio from the shelter.

And the person on the radio is Sun Lai's husband-that is, the suffering master who serves as a guard in the refuge.

In the past three years, the broadcast has not been interrupted for one day. It sounded punctually at noon every day and continued to broadcast until three o'clock in the afternoon.

And the content of the broadcast is also looking for the wife and children who have been separated from him for three years.

When he realized that his husband had never given up looking for himself, Xiao Sun, who was already a little shaken, cried out in Xiao Li's arms.

Chu Guang could feel that the owner of this diary didn't seem to be very happy. He didn't even mention her husband's name in the diary. He just used the man to refer to it, and he covered the whole thing in one stroke.

But what happened next gradually became interesting.

As the guard of the refuge, the suffering master was kept in the refuge before the outbreak of the nuclear war.

Knowing that his wife and children are still alive, he immediately found a way to contact his friends who used to work in the police station, guided his friends to bring supplies, and rescued those living in the tire factory. The pitiful person in the house.

These materials came in great use.

More than that, the suffering master relied on the almost unlimited knowledge reserve in the refuge, and checked the available materials from the electronic library, and actively helped the survivors of the tire factory to collect useful objects and establish themselves A shelter against severe cold weather and hunger.

It's like a remote control.

Xiao Li and Xiao Sun are very cooperative, but they conceal one thing, that is, they did not tell the survivors about the shelter.

People are selfish.

If these survivors know that there is a shelter that can be contacted near them, it is difficult to say whether they can still live as brave, united, and mutually supportively as they are now. They may even have Bad ideas, forcing the people who helped them to tell the location of the refuge, or even do more outrageous things.

The credit and prestige are temporarily counted on Xiao Li, and the existence of the refuge is concealed. He is like an omnipotent genius and has won everyone's support.

This is not a bad thing.

But leading a group of survivors is not an easy task after all.

Especially the collected materials will run out one day, and this endless winter has no hope of ending.

The owner of the diary from the very beginning has a clear idea. He is very clear that only by entering the refuge can he have eternal peace.

So he tried to persuade Xiaosun to instill some ideas into her, telling her that only a shelter is the only way out.

This is not only for her sake, but also for her children.

Regardless of the idea, Xiao Sun was obviously persuaded. Compared with the sanctuary with good environment, no one wants to stay in hell and suffer.

Besides, her husband is in the refuge, and entering is not that absolutely does not have possible.

However, the two of them didn't know that once the door of the refuge was closed, it was not easy to open it. The so-called being able to enter was just wishful thinking.

Although the suffering master is also very anxious to see his wife and children, only the manager has the authority of the refuge gate.

As a security guard, let alone open the door, he doesn't even have the qualifications to see the manager.

More than that.

In principle, after the door of the shelter is closed, they will enter Wireless Electronics immediately and be silent. No one is allowed to send messages to the outside world in any form. If found, they will be severely punished.

A large part of the reason why he can send signals to the outside world and receive information from the outside world is because the refuge he is in is a bit special.

This refuge site hides a low-power signal tower, and monitoring the signals in the nearby area is what he has to do every day.

Yes, he took advantage of his position.

For whatever reason, this is not a glorious thing.

He hasn't figured out how to confess himself, let alone how to beg the manager to leave a way out and let him go.

The worst result is that when he explained all this truthfully, he was sentenced to life imprisonment by the manager on the charge of a traitor, kept in a dormant cabin forever and frozen, and was tried by law after order was restored. .

At that time, I will lose contact with my wife and children forever.

The above is Chu Guang's speculation based on the content of the diary.

After all, the diary did not record the psychological activities of the suffering master, but only stated clues about "Wireless Electronics silent" and "Unable to open the door" in one stroke.

Later, out of guilt for his wife and children, the suffering master guided them through Wireless Electronics and found some hidden supply points that would not be marked on the regular evacuation map.

The materials there are very rich, not only food, medicine, clean drinking water, and even police weapons for riot control.

These materials allowed the survivors of the tire factory to spend a wealth of time, and even rescued a group of survivors who wandered over from the city.

And the owner of this diary, as it should be by rights, has become a savior in the eyes of these people, and a hero in the eyes of other wives and children.

But this wealthy day did not last long.

From the second half of the diary, it can be seen that as the supplies are exhausted, the contradictions and frictions between people begin to gradually intensify.

At first, everybody, regardless of age or sex, can enjoy two boxes of canned meat, unlimited supply of self-heating rice, and even iced and delicious beer.

Later, the survivor community began to ban alcohol. Meat can only be reserved for young and middle-aged men who go out to explore, hunt, scavenger, and pregnant women who are pregnant. The porridge is becoming more and more rare, even Had to mix some bark in.

In the end, all the hoarded supplies were exhausted, but the sky was getting colder and colder.

Everything is getting worse, there is no sign of improvement at all, even the most optimistic people do not see any hope.

Some people say that winter will last a long time.

Some people also say that it is a rumor and that there is no nuclear winter at all.

Then there was a retort, maybe not just nuclear weapons? After all, it was once said in the news that they had already mastered something more deterrent than nuclear weapons.

But if it really exists, is everything in front of you fake?

They have not even seen the most primordial nuclear bomb. The source of knowledge is what others have chewed. They can't even distinguish what is true and what is just a probability of speculation and guesswork.

Suspicions and complaints spread among the survivors. Some chose to leave, while those who stayed gradually turned against each other.

Perhaps......

from the very beginning They shouldn't take in the survivors who are wandering.

But who is not a wandering person?

In other words, how many people should be admitted from?   When the contradiction accumulates to be irreconcilable, it eventually turns into a fierce conflict. The cause may be just a piece of moldy bread, or even a bone, which is not important anymore.

The fighting finally subsided in Xiao Li's gunfire, but from that moment on, his dream about savior was also completely shattered.

Sun Lai's child died in that battle, and she herself was completely mad, disappeared in the heavy snow one night, and never appeared again.

And Xiao Li himself was immersed in regret and pain, and the content of the diary gradually went to the other extreme. The lines between the lines did not have the original angularity, chic and elegant, and replaced by scrawl and perfunctory.

Sometimes I just write a stroke every few days, and sometimes I even forget to update it for a month.

And the date on the last page is fixed in the fourth year of the Wasteland Era.

[...I am still looking for that refuge. That is the only hope. Although I know that hope is very slim, this world is hopeless. ]

This is the last line he wrote.

Until the end of his life, he was looking for the utopia he had never found.

"This diary can be put into a museum exhibition... If one day, museum and history, these two distinct things, reappear on this planet, someone must know what happened here."

"Forget it, it's better to spend some time in another day, and update it under the entry of the official website's "Bloodhand Clan"."

"Foreign world servers are better than The museum on the wasteland is reliable."

Although the diary explains the origin of the Bloodhand clan, it does not mention the ending of Xiao Li himself.

But this is not important.

The bloody handprint on the cover, in a sense, has explained everything, and it is no accident that he left it.

Chu Guang once heard Haien say that two years ago, the leader of the Bloodhand clan was not called "Bear", but a man named "Eagle". His body was hung in front of the tire factory. On the street light not far away.

Before the "Eagle", it was a "snake" that was blinded.

I don’t know anymore, maybe it’s something else.

Legend has it that none of the successive leaders of the Bloodhand clan was a good death. Almost all of them died as a result of the murder of their successors-or the cruel Darwin's law.

This diary with bloody handprints seems to have been imposing a certain vicious curse. It is regarded as a spiritual Totem by those robbers. Together with the bloody and violent culture, it has been passed down from generation to generation.

Now that the "bear" this generation has been passed on, it is finally crushed by the hammer of justice to this cycle of evil.

With a light sigh, Chu Guang closed the diary in his hand.

"Xiao Qi, I plan to go to bed, turn off the light for me, remember not to call Xia Yan to get up."

"As for me, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon... forget it."

, Wait until I sleep until I wake up naturally."

"Those spoils of war will be divided after I wake up. If a player asks you about it, you will answer that...the equipment has not been appraised yet. "

As everyone knows, unidentified equipment cannot be equipped. This is the common sense of MMORPG, which is very reasonable.

And Xiao Qi's voice is always so caring.

"Okay, master."

"Quick sleep."

The light in the room gradually softened, and finally turned into darkness.

That would be a good dream.
