Memory, an academic term, refers to the basis for the human brain to remember, retain, and reproduce experienced things, and then to carry out advanced psychological activities such as thinking and imagination. Later, it was scientifically confirmed that human memory is related to a certain chemical component secreted by the brain.
As a basic psychological process of human beings and even most living things, memory and thinking are closely related. Memory connects human psychological activities and is the basic function of people's study, work and life. It is equivalent to transforming abstract disorder into image order. Process, this is the key to memory.
It is obvious that memory, like thinking, belongs to the category of psychology and brain science. All human life, work, study, etc. are inseparable from memory, and memory is also an important key factor in promoting the development of human civilization. Once The consequences of losing your memory or having your memory affected are often very serious, ranging from inconvenience to your life to being completely unable to recognize the false and true, or even leading you to step into the abyss of death.

Night, minute, a high-end hotel in Zhenping City...
The singing, ups and downs, echoed around through the loudspeaker, and the atmosphere was noisy yet elegant. In the lobby on the first floor, there were many men and women in luxurious clothes. People talked and got to know each other, and some waiters shuttled around carrying trays of drinks. in the crowd.
It is obvious that this is a banquet scene. If you continue to observe, you can further see a luxurious cake placed on a dining car in the center of the living room.
This is a birthday party.
As mentioned above, cheerful songs echoed from time to time in the large hall. People were sitting, standing, or busy with their own things. Li Hongjun was also among them. He was sitting at a table in a corner of the living room, chatting with his relatives. Friends celebrate the birthday of their cousin.
Yes, today is Li Hongjun’s cousin’s birthday, and her cousin’s father, Li Hongjun’s uncle, happens to be an important senior leader in Zhenping City. During the birthday, I originally planned to just invite some relatives and friends to celebrate privately. However, I don’t know who leaked the news. After hearing the news, after learning that the leader’s daughter had a birthday today, in addition to relatives and friends, many uninvited guests also came uninvited with gifts. Among them were celebrities, business people, political officials, and even Many business owners came one after another.
Seeing this, Uncle Li Hongjun couldn't help but frown. Even so, he couldn't reach out to hit the smiling man, so he had no choice but to nod in acquiescence.
In the hall, the banquet has now begun, and the atmosphere is quite harmonious. As tonight's heroine, the cousin is also wearing a dress and chatting and laughing with a group of invited friends.
It can be seen that the heroine is very happy tonight, but, as a saying goes, some people are happy and some are sad. If her cousin or other people are happy tonight, then Li Hongjun, who is a supporting actor, is now sitting alone with a gloomy look on his face. He was sitting at a table in the corner with a dull look on his face and a nervous look on his face.
Seeing this, some people may ask why Li Hongjun is like this. The answer is very simple. The reason is very simple, because...
He is a student in Class 2, Grade 3, No. 21 Middle School!
Yes, there have been frequent disappearances of students in Li Hongjun’s class recently, and all of them disappeared mysteriously and inexplicably. What’s even more frightening is that whenever someone disappears, no one else has any memory of the missing classmates. This happens every day, one after another, and the development In the end, there were only a dozen people left in the class. Especially this evening, when Li Hongjun saw a big Arabic numeral 26 appearing on his desk, at that moment, he was frightened and scared out of his mind. , the sense of luck that he had earlier was completely shattered, and then he fell into despair.
what to do? what to do? Tell your parents about this? Tell others that someone is trying to kill you? Or simply call the police for help? No...it's useless. If you really do this, not only will you not get help, but you will be ridiculed by others or even regarded as a lunatic. Yes, after all, who in the world will believe in the theory of the God? Who can truly believe that worms really exist?
It's useless. It's useless to do anything. It's dead. Those classmates who disappeared earlier are the best example!
It is conceivable that others are not immune. How can Li Hongjun, who never thinks that he is more capable than others, think that nothing will happen to him? .
So, at that moment, seeing the numbers on the table and feeling the fear of death, Li Hongjun shed tears, just like several girls around him shed tears of despair.
He doesn't want to die, he really doesn't want to die. Although his family is not as rich as his cousin's family, he still feels very happy and has a happy life for so long. If possible, he hopes that he can live to be over 80 years old and finally die. And death, this is the only thing he hopes for, just like he used to do for his life.
pity……
Hope was shattered in an instant when Chen Wen clearly told everyone the terrible truth about the existence of worms in the class.
Then, there is fear, trembling, fear every night, and classmates disappearing every day. .
Until it was his turn, it was Li Hongjun's turn.
Of course, since no one wants to sit around and wait to die, Chen Wen, the boy who was not outstanding in his personal impression in the past, came up with a way for everyone, that is, they can try to avoid death by changing seats. Figures, but Chen Wen later stated that this method was not guaranteed to be effective, so this was the real reason why Li Hongjun had obviously changed seats during the day, but he was still worried in his heart. He was afraid, afraid that changing seats would be useless, I am afraid that Chen Wen’s uncertainty will become a reality. Once the method fails, then...
He will die and disappear tonight! ! !
As the saying goes, it rains all night when a house leaks. Just when Li Hongjun was frightened out of his mind by death threats recently, his parents who work in the same company happened to be on a business trip yesterday, leaving Li Hongjun alone at home. But what a coincidence, two hours Recently, when Li Hongjun was feeling anxious and alone at home, the phone rang. He picked up the phone and learned that today was his cousin's birthday. The aunt on the phone invited him to attend the birthday party as soon as possible. .
It is undeniable that Li Hongjun, who has been tortured by fear recently, is in the mood to attend the banquet? He was frightened at first and really planned to shirk the refusal, but for some unknown reason, after second thoughts, he finally agreed happily and immediately left home, went downstairs, and rode an electric bike to the hotel.
reason? There is no other reason, or there is no need to explain. From the perspective of Li Hongjun, who probably wouldn’t even dare to sleep tonight, since it is a birthday party, there will definitely be many people at the party. It is difficult to stay with so many people. It was much better and safer than being alone at home. If the murderous hawk mentioned by Chen Wen really existed, then he did not believe that the hawk would do it in front of so many people.
As a result, Li Hongjun guessed correctly!
At least that's what he personally thinks.
Although Li Hongjun was wary and cautious during this period, nothing happened in the next few hours. Everything was as usual, everything was ordinary.
………
The banquet lasted for a long time and did not end until 1:30 in the morning. As mentioned above, nothing weird or scary happened during the banquet.
Faced with this result, Li Hongjun was very excited. Yes, he was still safe even after such a late hour. Doesn't that mean that the method of changing desks was effective? Although there were still about three and a half hours before dawn, he had survived for so long, and he didn't believe that he would not be able to spend the last three and a half hours.
So, based on the above thoughts and with all kinds of excitement, after the birthday party, he left the hotel and entered the street. With the help of the surrounding street lights, Li Hongjun looked down at his watch and saw that the time had now reached 1:40 in the morning. Then, in a certain existence Prompted by a long thought, I unlocked my car and drove to the intersection on the right. I actually drove in the opposite direction of my home.
That's right, Li Hongjun didn't go home after leaving the hotel because he came to a conclusion through the previous banquet, that is... places with many people are the safest!
Since places with many people are the safest, then, apart from the birthday party that just ended, what other places are crowded during this late night and early morning period? .
There may be many answers, but for high school students of Li Hongjun's age, there is basically one place they can think of.
So, after his thoughts were over, Li Hongjun didn't hesitate anymore and immediately drove towards the intersection on the right, heading towards an Internet cafe he used to frequent...
………
The night sky is as deep as a curtain, dim and dull. There is no moon, no stars, no everything. The only thing that exists is black, as deep and gray as if a layer of ink has been splashed on it.
For some reason, the nights have always been extremely dark in the past few days. There are no stars or moon in the sky. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as being invisible. Of course, this is not what Li Hongjun is concerned about. At this moment, Li Hongjun is driving an electric car like this. I was driving continuously on a quiet road with the help of car lights. Since it was midnight, it was conceivable that there was nothing but silence on the street.
Feeling the silence around him and looking around the road, to be honest, Li Hongjun still couldn't help but feel panicked. Although he was a little flustered, when he thought that it would take at most two minutes to drive to the Internet cafe, which usually had a large number of people at night, his heart stopped. It calmed down a little.
With this hope and the environment prompting it, electric vehicles have reached the fastest speed without realizing it.
but……
In fact, Li Hongjun kept a high degree of vigilance along the way. He looked around continuously while driving. There was something that he still didn't know or simply didn't notice...
At this moment, if you observe Li Hongjun and the electric car from a third perspective on the street, you will see...
At some point, after turning a certain intersection, a black shadow of a pedestrian appeared on the electric seat! ! !
Yes, the human-shaped black shadow cannot be clearly seen, the clothes, the gender, and the appearance cannot be clearly seen. There is only a black mass similar to a human form appearing in the field of vision. In addition, the environment is too dark, and it is impossible to observe further in any case. I could just barely make out that it was a black figure. .
At this moment, on the road, the black shadow was sitting motionless in the back seat of the electric car. As for Li Hongjun, who was driving the vehicle in front of the black shadow, he was completely unaware of it.
After a while, maybe seven or eight seconds, or maybe ten seconds later...
The shadow moved.
The human-shaped shadow that had been sitting motionless in the back seat of the car for a long time gradually started to move. If you look closely, you can see that the two arms of the shadow slowly lifted up first, and then stretched out towards Li Hongjun, towards his head...
Next, an unexpected and horrifying scene happened:
Everyone knows that if a person sitting in the back of an electric vehicle wants to completely reach the head of the person riding in front of him with both hands, he must first turn around and lean forward. But, the scary thing is that although the black shadow can be clearly seen, He was stretching his hands towards Li Hongjun's head, but his body remained motionless from beginning to end. His body neither leaned forward nor turned, but his two arms continued to extend forward, and they inexplicably grew closer to Half of the length continued to extend like a stretched rubber band until it completely reached the opponent's head! .
And then……
He wrapped his hands forward and slowly covered Li Hongjun's eyes.
However...
The strange thing is that Li Hongjun didn't notice anything. It seemed that nothing happened in his eyes, and his field of vision remained normal. He couldn't feel that there was a pair of hands covering his eyes at this moment.
………
Internet cafes are brightly lit, illuminating the surrounding roads. Through the windows and doors, you can vaguely see a large number of people inside. Many netizens are sitting in front of computers and working hard.
Buzz, buzz buzz...
As the soft sounds came from far and near, soon, an electric car parked at the entrance of the Internet cafe.
After getting off the car, he stared at the brightly lit Internet cafe in front of him, and then glanced at the many electric motorcycles parked in front of the door. Seeing this, Li Hongjun felt happy.
Here we are, finally at the Internet cafe. Not only that, it looks like there are quite a few people staying up all night inside.
What does the large number of people mean? It means safety, it means he can spend tonight safely!
Thinking of this, Li Hongjun didn't hesitate anymore, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.
Sure enough, as expected, as soon as I entered the Internet cafe, I saw that almost half of the dozens of machines in the lobby on the first floor were open, and those dozens of machines were all occupied by people surfing the Internet. Although the Internet cafe was full of people at the moment, It was relatively quiet, but it was the middle of the night after all, and it was normal to be quiet, so after the observation, Li Hongjun didn't think much about it. He went to the bar to swipe his card and then found a computer to sit down in the lobby on the first floor and stayed up all night. When he started surfing the Internet, Li Hongjun usually used to open a private room for one person when he came here to surf the Internet. However, it was different now. It was completely different. What Li Hongjun was most afraid of now was being alone. Seeing that there were more people in the lobby on the first floor, Li Hongjun naturally didn't care. Don't hesitate to stay on the first floor.
Time passes minute by minute.
During this period, the entire Internet cafe was extremely quiet. After playing League of Legends for about half an hour, Li Hongjun instinctively got up and walked to the bathroom on the left side of the hall as he felt the urge to urinate. After solving his personal problems, he pushed the door open and walked out. He wanted to return to his seat and continue playing, but , the next second, or when he subconsciously looked forward...
Li Hongjun was stunned.
He was stunned on the spot for a moment.
At this moment, his eyes were wide open, his expression was horrified, and at the same time, an emotion called fear suddenly emerged from his heart.
That's because...just now, when he pushed the door out of the bathroom, he found that the scene in front of him had changed. It had undergone earth-shaking changes. When he looked carefully, he saw that it was still the lobby of the Internet cafe? Separate bedrooms! It's his personal bedroom in his own home! ! !
The desktop computer in the Internet cafe has long been turned into his personal laptop, and what's even weirder is that even though the computer has changed, the screen on the screen is still the League of Legends screen he played before in the Internet cafe!
"this……"
Seeing such a shocking scene, cold sweat oozed from Li Hongjun's whole body in an instant, and he couldn't help but tremble. Yes, he was scared, scared. The fear came from the changes in the environment, and the fear came from the incomprehensible, real I can't understand why? Why is this happening? I should obviously be in the Internet cafe, but why, why did I find myself at home after going to the toilet? Are you in his or her own bedroom?
In the silence, as the cold sweat flowed more and more, and as the fear became more and more serious, Li Hongjun suddenly thought of something, and his mind instinctively thought of a word that Chen Wen once said to everyone, a terrible word consisting of only one word:
螞! ! !
Thinking of this, Li Hongjun felt a little warm in his crotch, but he couldn't care about it anymore. Seeing the strange environment, after a moment, he finally reacted suddenly without being completely frightened, and rushed out of the bedroom without saying a word. He ran straight towards the living room door.
Ta-ta-ta-ta!
Yes, he wants to leave, he wants to leave home, he wants to go to a place with many people, no matter where it is, it is always safer than staying at home alone.
Then, he succeeded and ran out of the living room and into the corridor, just...
As soon as he pushed the door open and arrived at the corridor, just as he rushed to the corner of the corridor and planned to continue down the stairs, in a panic, he saw something.
In the field of vision, outside the window of the corridor beside me, at this moment, there is a black figure standing motionless. There is only a window between him and Li Hongjun! ! !
Li Hongjun's family lives in a 25-story residential building, and his home is located on the 17th floor of the building! ! !
so……
When he discovered that there was a person floating in the air outside the window, a black figure whose outline could only be seen, Li Hongjun went crazy. He was so frightened that he was alive. His body shook violently and he urinated. Then he opened his mouth and instinctively screamed.
Can……
Who would have thought that before he could open his mouth and scream, the black shadow moved outside the window, and stretched out his hands under Li Hongjun's frightened eyes. In an instant, a pair of astonishingly long arms suddenly appeared through the window. He immediately grabbed Li Hongjun's neck!
Then suddenly retracted.
The next second, Li Hongjun disappeared and disappeared out of the window. Before he could scream, his whole body was instantly pulled out of the window by those arms and disappeared.
The only thing left was silence, only silence, and the endless dark sky outside the window.
……………
