Fifty years ago, Damma, a city near the border, was a poor city with traffic congestion, a high degree of autonomy, and a mixed multi-ethnic population. The backward thinking and economy restricted the development of the small town, and also brought about a high crime rate. Although it once temporarily prospered due to the discovery of a gold mine, it once again prospered after it was discovered that most of the veins were actually pyrite. Declined.
The turning point occurred fifty years ago.
A flying object suspected of being a UFO fell into the mountains southwest of the small town, and this phenomenon was noticed by many people, which immediately attracted attention. That era was also the era when alien fantasies were most prosperous. Driven by this impetus, a state-organized expedition team entered Danma.
Although UFO-related news gradually fell silent after that, the national attention brought more than just one team. In order to facilitate the transportation of instruments, the first road to Damma was built. The undeveloped scenery here has also attracted much attention since then, and the specialties in the mountains have also become famous with the opening of traffic. In the following decades, Danma's development was almost rapid.
[Your tutor Fan Xiaoyun is guiding your senior Yan Yue to complete a paper on urban development and folk culture. During the process, he discovered unclear records about UFOs in the history of Danma. At the same time, because of Danma’s unique Cultural background and characteristics, decided to take Yan Yue to Danma to find out. The two have been separated for more than a month. Except for the safety messages you received from Yan Yue in the first two weeks, there has been no news since then. Summer vacation is here. Worried about your senior sister and tutor, you excuse yourself from traveling and take a bus to Danma.
You are a sophomore in college, quiet and studious. Because Senior Yan Yue helped introduce you to a tutor, I am grateful to her. However, at present, we are only acquaintances with Fan Xiaoyun, and are not particularly familiar with each other.
Your identity is, the secret person.
Keep your secrets and complete at least two personal goals. If the other secret people die, you can choose to leave.
The way to leave is to stay more than ten kilometers away from the urban area of Danma.
The secret that belongs to the hidden man, Lu Ning:
1. Your grandfather once performed border security work in Dama and was also one of the witnesses of the UFO incident fifty years ago. For this reason, you clearly know that the crash of Danma was indeed a saucer-shaped aircraft, and the information was blocked for some unknown reasons.
2. You learned from senior sister Yan Yue that the instructor Fan Xiaoyun seems to have visited Danma several times before this topic, for unknown reasons. In addition, before Yan Yue left, she also informed you not to tell outsiders about her teacher-student relationship with Fan Xiaoyun unless her safety information was sent back.
3. Some diaries and notes left behind by your grandmother record information related to the "outside". Although these descriptions are vague, they leave a deep impression on you. By studying some records that are suspected to be talismans, you seem to have mastered a certain amount of knowledge that is not conventional. And this knowledge also provides you with the vague ability to peer into the invisible.
4. When you searched for information about Danma before setting off, you discovered a rather secretive forum, and learned from it the top ten strange situations that have occurred in Danma's development in recent years. Intuition tells you that these situations are not ordinary and have a certain connection with you.
5. Your most direct and important reason for going to Dama is to investigate the cause of your mother's death. However, because the circumstances of your mother's death are too weird, you have to suspect that it is related to the mysterious phenomenon in your mother's family, and your father is not. The lack of grief is also questionable.
What Lu Ning needs to accomplish during this trip:
1. Find your mentor Fan Xiaoyun.
2. Find senior sister Yan Yue.
3. Take Yan Yue out of Danma's range.
4. Explore the secrets that were covered up fifty years ago.
5. Clarify the cause of death of the mother.
Relevant information is attached. 】
As the bus passed through a long dark tunnel, Lu Ning finished reading the contents of the first letter. Not long after, all the lights on the car suddenly went out, and darkness completely enveloped the car. Lu Ning did not panic, and calmly folded the paper in her hand and stuffed it back into the envelope. After waiting for a moment, a ray of light illuminated the car.
Between darkness and light, Lu Ning was already on a long-distance bus.
A woman in casual clothes was taking a nap next to her by the window, and behind her were many tourists of all ages, some of whom were wearing tour group hats.
After a long ride, many people began to feel sleepy, and the smell of food still lingered in the car. Lu Ning picked up the envelope and suddenly found that the content on it had changed. It was no longer the same as the previous mission introduction.
[Personal information has been transferred to the mobile terminal. Your luggage consists of a brown travel backpack overhead and a dark blue plastic suitcase in the luggage compartment of the car. Personal ID card, bank card and other items are in your pocket, I wish you good luck. 】
After Lu Ning read these lines, they disappeared.
However, those things attached to the back are still there.
It includes a typed summary of the top ten strange events in the forum, several incomprehensible transcripts from my grandmother's notes, a photocopy of my parents' photo together, a photocopy of my grandfather's youth, and several photocopies of newspaper clippings.
The afternoon sun made people lazy and easy to sleep. Lu Ning slowly leaned on the seat, put the envelope in her arms, and squinted her eyes as if she wanted to sleep.
Outside the window, a huge billboard flashed across.
【Danma, your dream home! 】
In midsummer, the weather in the south is humid and hot, but in Danma, which is located in a mountainous and forested area, the heat has dropped slightly, and you even need to wear long sleeves when traveling in the morning and evening.
The long-distance bus arrived at the hotel near the edge of the city in Dama. The passengers got off the bus one after another. A group of middle-aged people who looked like a tour group were the first to take their luggage and check in at the hotel. Lu Ning looked at it while waiting for the luggage. Take a look around the hotel - it looks like a modern city, with many exotic-style buildings.
"Master, is there anything worth visiting here in Danma?" Lu Ning took advantage of the driver to smoke next to him and approached him to ask.
"Danma, there are a lot of places to play, including the Municipal Garden, Clock Memorial Hall, Avery Cathedral, and Cuiyan Nature Exhibition Hall. These are all urban attractions. You can also go to the mountain forest area to see the villa area and The scenery of the hunting ground. If you have the money to rent a villa there and live there for two months, tsk tsk."
The driver said, smacking his tongue enviously.
Lu Ning thanked her politely. At this time, her luggage was almost ready. She easily found her suitcase and hurried into the hotel lobby.
The arrival of a large number of guests made the counter seem very busy. Several lines were lined up. Amidst the noise, someone suddenly said in a low voice near Lu Ning:
"Friends from the distribution center?"
This sudden sound was indeed unexpected, but Lu Ning seemed not to have heard it at all. She walked straight to the newspaper and travel introduction shelf provided by the hotel in the original walking direction and picked up a few small tourist attraction brochures.
The man who said that on the other side shrugged and walked back to the rest area. Sitting on a circle of brown sofas were two young men who looked to be in their twenties. One of them gave a thumbs-down gesture to the man who came back and said with a smile: "It's so bad, I didn't find anyone." "
"There's no harm in trying."
At this distance, Lu Ning could no longer hear what they were saying, but just based on what she said just now, she could think that these three people were from the distribution center.
However, this time it is different from Ghost Villa. Not only because of the number of people, but also because the type of mission is likely to be confrontational and secret.
Among the four types of tests that a first-order person may encounter, survival is the easiest. Although there is great external pressure, everyone is on the same front. If internal disharmony can be abandoned, sacrifices can be controlled within a certain range. Inside.
In confrontation, each tourist will be assigned a predetermined camp. There are more than two camps in the entire test field, and the goals are most likely to be completely opposite. In such a situation, kill all the tourists in the opposite camp. It is an inevitable choice in 90% of confrontational scenarios.
On top of this, if you include secrets, the difficulty will increase by another level - secrets will make tourists fight on their own, and even people with the same goal as you may stab you in the back because of their own secrets. Because it is impossible to know where the danger will come from after the secret is exposed, everyone will be more cautious, sensitive, suspicious, and even willing to kill the wrong person.
As for hunting, external dangers continue to increase, and there are no signs of that yet.
Lu Ning's letter clearly stated that all the remaining hidden people must die. She was not sure how many total number of hidden people there were, nor how many camps there were, but this condition was enough for her to kill anyone from the distribution center. Predicted to be the enemy.
Just as she was running through various thoughts in her mind, her phone suddenly vibrated.
This time it was not a mysterious "official" message, but a message received from the terminal's friend list.
[I am in Danma and received a reply. 】
Note: Shu Xingruo.
Lu Ning didn't have many friends. Apart from the three people in the same dormitory, the only one was Pang Shaotong. From the information we learned before, communication can only be achieved when we are in the same distribution center or scene. It seems that we really got lucky this time.
But, a confrontational scene...is it really good?
Lu Ning hesitated for a moment and then sent a reply to Shu Xingruo.
【I am also here. 】
[I received a message from another person. I can meet him when I have time. 】
Soon, Shu Xingruo heard back.
Lu Ning looked at this message with a slightly solemn expression.
Shu Xingruo's character is not to say casual, but he does seem to be a bit informal when talking and doing things. Such a character would not have such a tone even if it was reflected in chatting using information tools.
"So...she is now in a state where her information is being monitored? Although it is not particularly strict, you must be careful not to expose too much information. The other person obviously refers to Cheng Wuling. This information can be used to reply directly to the two of us, At the same time, no information about us will be exposed... Do we need to be so cautious?"
Just as he was thinking about it, a text message from Cheng Wuling was sent.
[If Shu Xing is in trouble, I will find her first and be careful not to reveal my identity. 】
Lu Ning replied "Okay" and went to queue, quickly booking a single room on the tenth floor of the hotel. She does have enough money in her card, so at least she won't have to worry about financial problems for a short time.
After arriving in the room and putting down her things, Lu Ning immediately connected to the hotel's wireless network and started searching for local news in Danma.
[The Frost Day celebration is about to begin, and various preparation arrangements will be disclosed to Mayor Wenhai]
[Mysterious special guests arrived at Danma and took stock of the stars who have arrived at previous celebrations]
[Traces of wild beasts were found in the forest of Mufeng Mountain, please do not step into the depths of the forest]
[Danma tourism reaches new heights]
