When Zhou Yu got up early the next morning, he found Luo Binhan lying on the sofa, sleeping soundly. Internet TV, which is automatically broadcast by default, is showing a zombie movie starring a specific star.
Zhou Yu stared at the screen for a while and felt that the plot and characters of this film were very familiar. He thought about it for a moment and suddenly realized that it was a movie he had watched with Zhang Mumu.
In other words, I saw it in a dream.
Because of his busy schedule, Zhou Yu rarely watches movies, and even less horror movies. He was certain he had never seen the film before.
This is no accident. For every movie you see in your dream, you can find the original movie and plot that match it in reality. Every book he read, he had confirmed, was a publication that existed in reality. In addition to the city "Migenzhu" itself, prototypes can be found for a large number of detailed elements in the dream. Because of this, he believed that the dream was unusual.
In the absence of information sources, can the human brain really process these contents completely independently? Every detail of Mi Genzhu's dream is still clearly retained in his mind.
He stood there for a while, then turned off the TV, took out a blanket from the closet and covered Luo Binhan. Probably because he was too tired these past few days, Luo Binhan snored constantly and was completely ignorant of everything around him. This man's sleeping posture was so funny that Zhou Yu wanted to take a photo and send it to him, but seeing that time was running out, he just picked up his luggage and quietly walked out of the house.
Zhou Yu had never heard of the name Silver Thread Township before, and there were only a few pieces of information on the Internet. If you don't deliberately look for it, I'm afraid most people in the world will not know this place.
The complete address is "Yinxian Township, Jiwei County, Qianzhou Province", with a total of five villages under it. This is information found on the government website, and the specific situation can only be confirmed on site.
After boarding the plane, Zhou Yu opened his notebook and called up the hidden folder inside.
Although the original copy of the black book was entrusted to Luo Binhan for safekeeping, he still kept several scanned copies and photo backups in his own hands. One copy is in the notebook and the rest is stored in cyberspace. Just in case, he went to an Internet cafe to open an anonymous email account to store relevant information. Because he never logged into that mailbox with his own device, even if his belongings were thoroughly inspected in the future, the anonymous account would not be implicated.
And if he does not change the settings within two months, the default email in the mailbox, together with his suicide note, will be sent to Luo Binhan.
After realizing the nature of the notebook, he was ready to die.
While the passenger next to him was napping, he opened the document and began to write down in detail what happened in the dream. After the plane lands, he will immediately go to an Internet cafe and store the contents in an anonymous mailbox.
Zhou Yu in the dream is not consistent with the reality. Memories and experiences aside, the parents' situation is completely different. In reality, Zhou Yu doesn't remember her biological mother's face. It is said that her mother ran away from home when she was three years old. Her mother's life experience, ancestral home, and whereabouts also became a complete mystery after her father died of illness.
The reason why it cannot be investigated is that her parents were not married at all. Zhou Yu's household registration was registered with her father, and her mother's information was almost blank.
When investigating this point, if it weren't for the high similarity in temperament between father and daughter, Zhou Yu would have almost suspected that Zhou Yu was an adopted child by his father.
However, in that strange dream, Zhou Yu's situation was exactly the opposite. There is no news about her father. Half of her living expenses are earned by herself and the other half is sent by her mother. Zhou Yu seemed to have used this method to inquire about her mother's whereabouts. In her diary, she stated that her mother currently lived in "Silver Thread Township" and hoped to visit her after graduation.
Zhou Yu is not sure whether there is any connection between the Silver Thread Township in the dream and reality. But when he recalled his dream, he also discovered something strange.
——Although "Migenzhu City" does not exist, the news outside the city spread in newspapers, TV, Internet, and all media in the city are all true. All place names and events can be matched in reality.
Such a weird phenomenon seemed to exist in a parallel time and space where exactly the same events were happening in his world. The only difference was that there was an additional city called Migenzhu.
Is such a thing possible? After experiencing these few months, Zhou Yu felt that he could not tell. The only reason that can refute this so-called "parallel world theory" is the strange experience he had during the period before waking up from the dream.
The female rider who looks similar to Zhou Yu, the yellow paper that attracts storms, the "disease" spell, the tangible but intangible "light sword"...
In fact, it's like a dream.
These thoughts kept rolling through his mind as he stared at the contents of the document.
That must be a dream, right?
Then, before he woke up, the female college student Zhang Mumu who was killed by the female rider was just his fantasy.
Just as he was thinking this, the flight attendant walked into the cabin pushing the dining cart. The flight departed at 6:30 in the morning, and most of the passengers on the plane were closing their eyes to relax. Attracted by the aroma of breakfast, they all stuck their heads out to watch. The passenger next to Zhou Yu seemed to be awakened. He immediately closed the document save, closed the notebook and put it back in his bag.
The smiling stewardess approached with a trolley and distributed lunch boxes to the passengers in Zhou Yu's row. When Zhou Yu was about to say thank you, his head suddenly started to hurt violently.
"...Sir? This gentleman?"
The flight attendant leaned down with concern, as if calling something to him. However, Zhou Yu couldn't hear clearly at all. He only felt that there was a layer of black mist floating in the world in front of him, and the roaring noise in his ears was like a heavy rain or waves.
Deep in his brain, a sharp vortex seemed to be forming, slowly twisting and swallowing, leading his consciousness into endless darkness.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the phantom pain of being in purgatory gradually dissipated.
He put down the hand that was pressing his forehead, controlled his expression and said to the stewardess: "I have slight motion sickness, please give me some water."
He probably didn't lose consciousness for a long time, so the stewardess didn't look suspicious and just asked again: "Do you need anything else?"
"Water will do."
The stewardess obeyed and walked away. Seeing that he was fine, the passengers next to him quickly turned their attention to breakfast. Zhou Yu took the opportunity to bury his face in his hands and exhale the turbid and hot air from his lungs.
As a result of being discharged early, he is still in a moderate to severe state of frailty. Flying on an airplane under such conditions is inherently prone to hypoxia and syncope. However, if he does faint on the plane because of this, he may be included in the airline's refusal list.
In order to avoid trouble, he adjusted his breathing and endured the feeling of vomiting while opening the lunch box.
Breakfast is spaghetti bolognese. Beige thick noodles covered with a layer of thick dark red gravy. It's not exquisite, but the meat flavor is very strong.
——In dizziness, Zhou Yu had a strange illusion.
The delicious food in the lunch box looked to him like a squirming brain soaked in blood.
