Chapter 8 Restoring Memory
Xia Ren fell into trouble.
This is the first time he can get a system reward. If you want to choose one of the four options, it must be determined which one is more helpful to your current situation.
Needless to say, the pollution value of 5/100 alone causes uncontrollable distortions in his brain. If it increases to 10/100, new distortions may occur, and even sudden death may occur on the spot.
The attributes of pollution resistance are obvious at first glance, but it already has three points, from three to four, and the gain seems to be not too large.
So choosing 50 achievement points? It is also very useful to read the introduction of the achievement points. With the achievement points, you can exchange items in the store. Moreover, the third-level anti-pollution liquid required to correct brain distortion must be obtained from the store. No matter what, the achievement points are something that he urgently needs now and even in the future.
After thinking for a long time, Xia Ren finally decided that it was you!
[Eliminate your own 5/100 pollution value!]
This is the safest and most intuitive option at present, because the store is still in gray. If these 50 achievement points cannot be exchanged for anything, his reward for this mission will be wasted.
Although there is a first-level anti-pollution liquid that can eliminate pollution values, it is too wasteful to use it for the pollution value of 5/100. Intuition tells him that anti-pollution liquid must be a very important item and must not be used easily.
【Are you sure?】
【Sure!】
In an instant, several tentacles stretched out from behind the head again, but this time the target was either someone else, Xia Ren himself.
The slender tissue waving in the air, splitting two strands, like straight steel guns, penetrated his eyes!
"Late..."
Before he could say the last word, his tentacles had already entered his body through his eyes.
Xia Ren's concern was completely unnecessary. The tentacles seemed to have no physical substance. His eyes did not feel any discomfort. He just saw two long things twisting back and forth on his face, and he still felt an indescribable disgust in his heart.
Soon, the tentacles disappeared, and he felt the dull pain in his skull relieved a little. At the same time, a large amount of information poured in, and his mind swelled. He covered his eyes, hummed in pain, and fell back on the sofa.
[Pollution has been eliminated, current pollution value is 0/100]
"Memory has been restored..."
When he opened his eyes again, Xia Ren's expression was a little confused.
He is 24 years old this year, his parents died, he has been graduating from college for two years, and he still lives with his sister. Because he was diagnosed with a tumor in his job, he has never had a stable job. He is currently a contracted author of a certain website, but he is just a frustration. The novel he is currently serializing is already 404 days ago.
He lost his source of income and was in a bad financial situation.
This is not the point, the key is:
"Aren't I dead?"
He looked at his hands, and his memory was very clear. He went to the hospital for a review yesterday without telling his sister. As a result, he developed symptoms of cardiac arrest while talking to the doctor. Half-wake-up, he felt that he was being pushed to the operating room urgently, and then someone said to him that we tried our best, and then his consciousness completely disappeared...
"Why would I show up on the street then?"
To outsiders, this is simply a medical miracle.
And even if the memory is restored, he doesn't remember that he knew Zhao Mingyue before. What's going on with that real estate certificate?
"Things have become troublesome."
He scratched his hair irritably.
Now even if you want to go home, you will have some thoughts on how to explain your resurrection to your sister. With the character of Xia Qiu and winter, you will inevitably have a lot of interrogation.
What’s even more troublesome is that I will definitely have to keep in contact with infected bodies in the future, and the containment items can only be stored in this room and can only be moved out.
"Let's talk about everything until tomorrow."
Xia Ren looked at the note on the coffee table, which read the phone number of Mrs. Liu's son.
Although the infected body sitting opposite him just now, the memory and emotions are still inherited from Mrs. Liu himself. Since I promised, it is better to do what I promised.
Slide the phone to unlock and dial in according to the number. It is Xizhou's phone number.
Before he could figure out how to talk to the other person, the phone was connected.
"Hey, mom, I'm busy. How are you doing well recently?"
It is now 8:00 pm. According to the time difference, the other side is almost 8:00 pm.
"I am Grandma Liu's neighbor." Xia Ren said.
The other side was silent for a long time: "Is my mom sick?"
"She has passed away, more than a month ago." Xia Ren said.
"So that's the case, Aunt Liu..." Her voice was a little lonely, but she didn't feel too sad.
"Auntie Liu?" Xia Ren tilted his head.
"Since I have passed away, there is no need to hide it. I am Fang Jizhong's lawyer and friend. He died of cancer three years ago. Before he died, he asked me to help him hide it and don't tell his mother."
Xia Ren opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
The other party said that he would come back to deal with the subsequent matters after a while, and then hurriedly hung up the phone.
"Uncle Qin said that Mrs. Liu's son hasn't been back for two years. It turns out that this is the reason."
It is not that he does not have filial piety, but that he does not have the ability to do filial piety.
As for whether it is a good or a bad thing to hide the news of his death from his mother, Xia Ren has no right to judge as an outsider.
In the last two years of life, Old Lady Liu still has some hope.
I felt lost in my heart.
I was very hungry, but Xia Ren was not in a mood to eat at all. Although this room has been around for a long time, there is another advantage, that is, the bathroom and the toilet are separated. When Xia Ren went in to take a shower, he saw that in addition to shampoo and shower gel, there were other bottles and jars in the bathroom.
He picked up two and looked at it. Body lotion, scrub, and I haven't heard of it. Isn't it enough to take a bath? I have never seen my sister use these things in my memory.
After taking a shower, I found that I forgot to buy toothbrush and toothpaste during the day. Looking at the cute pink cat ear cup and the toothbrush on the sink, Xia Ren stood there for a while and silently returned to the bedroom.
There were traces of Zhao Mingyue everywhere, and even the pillow under her head now had her smell. Xia Ren couldn't figure out why the girl who came to his ear playfully and said, "The world is going to be over" disappeared out of thin air? No one except herself knew her existence.
"Zhao Mingyue, an alienated body of the abyss..."
He chewed these words repeatedly in his heart, but he finally fell asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, Xia Ren found herself standing in the living room.
"This is a dream."
Outside the window was a black night sky, and there was a bird cage hanging beside the window, which swung gently in the wind, and the lights were on in the living room, so you could see that all the furnishings were the same as when he came in.
The only difference is that it has a warm feeling.
A gap was opened in the study room, and the quiet music came out faintly, and who was inside.
Driven by curiosity, he walked over the dog basin at his feet.
