Returning from the abyss

Chapter 653 Residues
The lounge where Lu Ning was located was collapsing. Starting from the human face, everything here began to burn like a fragile piece of paper. The bright golden flame burned everything, but it didn't hurt her at all.She could feel the strong emotions conveyed in the fire, and she went forward bravely and showed her sharpness.

But this made Lu Ning panic for no reason.

Even with the fusion of treasures, personal emotions are still a very private thing, no one will directly show it in front of anyone, without the protection of the body, it is a very fragile thing.

However, Lu Ning was able to pick up a familiar breath from the golden flame. Her panic was not because of fear, but because she was extremely worried that this was the last release of this brilliant feeling, and she was afraid that she would never be able to touch it again. Slice warm.

Calmness began to spread from the robe to her whole body. The more such a moment, the more she needed to think carefully about the current situation.The human face, that is, the tip, was the first to be burned by the golden flames from the outside. Although she knew something about the memory network, she had [-]% trust in Yan Rong.

"Therefore, what Duanjue told me is dangerous. It may not be a lie, but a lie can also be a truth that covers up part of the truth. If you don't consider its description of yourself, just as far as I am concerned... The point of using lies is to go the way it wants us to go, and my experience should not have left its control arrangement, that is... to master this memory network."

Whether it is to obtain information or escape from prison, the first reaction is that mastering this memory network must be beneficial.It is not the ultimate goal, but it is the only way to almost any goal.

Lu Ning pulled out the double knives, allowing the blades to condense into shape again, and jumped into the flames.

The dense red net is under the space burned by the flames. Lu Ning can't see things further away. She can only see one memory after another sealed in the translucent space. Those symbols form the space between the memories. They are mixed and fermented in this way, and turned into those turbid and inexplicable forms.

As Lu Ning continued to fall, she picked up a wisp of golden flame with the tip of her knife and shone downward.Perhaps her position is already very close to the bottom, and the red silk is getting less and less.She saw that there were some golden lights falling in the darkness beside her, and it seemed that there were still some people who were aware of all this like herself.

Finally, where the red silk became thinner, a death-like bluish-gray fog appeared. Lu Ning heard a slightly wet sliding sound, and immediately after that, countless tentacles suddenly appeared around her. A huge eyeball suddenly opened under her body, and the teeth around the eyeball were rapidly closing.

She released a recoil formation with her fingertips, lifted herself up a distance, her teeth closed two or three meters below her body, and made a loud noise. Before Lu Ning had time to rejoice that she reacted quickly enough, a Hidden tentacles had penetrated her head.

"The disaster incident [Killer Butterfly] failed to be handled, and the brains of 320 nine residents in the town were all sucked."

The middle-aged man said into the walkie-talkie.

"reason?"

"It's a little late." The man took off his helmet with a look of resentment on his face, "If our mobility is faster, maybe we can save some people!"

"Esson, news from the capital, the equipment of the Supernatural Disaster Management Agency will indeed be updated, but... you are about to retire, I'm afraid you won't be able to enjoy it."

The man named Esson was silent for a moment, and smiled wryly: "That's right, I'm old."

"You are luckier than most of your colleagues to be able to leave the job safely without missing arms or legs."

"Well, I'll look for it one last time, although there has never been a record of the [Killer Butterfly] incident before..." Esson walked down a street, his expression still a bit unbearable.

Lu Ning found that she could only follow this person, but she had never heard who this Esson was, but she could deduce one or two based on the events they said.

Esson inspected four or five houses, and the brains of the residents in each house were sucked out, and even the eyeballs were turned into puddles of blood.Esong's expression became more and more dignified. Although Lu Ning could see that this was not the first time he had experienced such a thing, it still brought him a lot of psychological pressure.

When Esson walked into a small yard that wasn't too big, the instrument he was holding suddenly lit up, and Lu Ning knew that it was something like a life detection device.Surprise and uncontrollable ecstasy flashed across the face of this middle-aged man. He even rushed into the house with some gaffes, quickly searched the ground with instruments, and opened a hidden cellar, which seemed to be used for storing wine. In a place like this, there is still a little girl about three or four years old lying there.

Although she fell asleep due to lack of oxygen, the little girl was still alive.

Esson hurriedly picked her up, took an oxygen cylinder from various emergency equipment on his body, and walked out of the cellar while giving emergency treatment to the little girl.

Then the space shattered as if it had been eaten and torn apart, as if a piece of paper had been peeled off. Immediately afterwards, Lu Ning found herself standing in an office with Esson, and a person who should be the officer was Pass an envelope to Esson.

"Congratulations... I still want to say congratulations."

It was the voice from the intercom before.

Esson smiled wryly, and took the envelope.

"His Majesty the King has made arrangements for our post-retirement life, and you can be healthy and healthy like this, in fact, you have a bright future. At least the rest of your life will be guaranteed." The officer smiled, "To be honest, I am a little envious."

"I have received a job offer from my family. I am a security captain. The salary is very good and it suits me very well." Esson nodded.

"Isn't this very good!" The officer patted Esson's shoulder, "Then why are you so sad?"

"Sir, may I ask... how was that little girl before?"

This question made the chief recall carefully: "The one you rescued in the last incident? Well... the basic inspection report has come out, and there is no special change in her body, but it is true that the killer butterfly let her go. It's a puzzling thing, you know that cellar can't stop the killer butterfly at all."

"But according to the rules..."

"According to the rules, her [-]-day stay and inspection period has passed. We really shouldn't restrict her freedom anymore, let alone she is so young. It's just that her parents are dead, and her relatives seem to live in that town. According to the law, she must be sent to an orphanage."

Esson opened his mouth, and seemed to think for a long time before he said this sentence with difficulty: "That... I want to ask, can I..."

"No." The chief saw Esson's situation at a glance, "You have never been married, have you? Although I know you will be a good adoptive father, rules are rules. A person without any experience in raising children cannot directly Adopting a child, if you qualify, is another story."

"But it takes at least two years to obtain the qualification." Esson said distressedly, "the orphanage does not guarantee that it is definitely a good place."

"Esson, then answer me now. Did you adopt her because you felt sorry for her helplessness? Or did you adopt her because you wanted to comfort yourself and find a spiritual sustenance for yourself?" The officer's tone became serious.

Esson was silent for a long while before he said: "...I understand, I'm not ready to be a father yet."

The officer also sighed.

"Well, let me help you. Arrange the child to an orphanage near your hometown. You can also take care of her on the way to obtain the qualification. When you obtain the right to adopt, it will be convenient for you to adopt directly. How about that?"

"Thank you! Sir!" Esson hastily gave a military salute.

Then, the gnawing scene appeared again, Lu Ning stepped on the gradually broken office floor and stepped on a piece of soft ground.

"Is that Saga?"

"It's terrible, why does she always talk to the bugs?"

"Grandma is so kind to everyone, but she never responds."

"Last time I invited her to make a cake, she ignored me!"

The child's words came to her ears. Lu Ning stepped on the soil and saw a slightly older girl kneeling beside a fence. At the age of four or five, she had already begun to understand the surroundings, but she still lacked understanding of the world.Saga lowered his head and fiddled with the soil on the ground, his body was also dirty.

"Saga, it's time to eat."

A gentle voice came from not far away. It was a woman wearing an apron with a kind face. She was about 50 years old, and the wrinkles of the years added kindness to her.Saga completely ignored it and continued to scrape the mud on the ground.

"What's so funny that you're so focused?" The woman came over, obviously having a lot of experience with children, she didn't speak harshly, but changed the topic to Saga's focus.

Saga raised his head when he heard the question: "Grandma, Tuli."

"In the soil? What's in the soil?"

"Some things are in the soil. Dig them out." Saga pointed to the soil, "If you don't dig it out, there will be nothing."

"Okay, after we finish eating, Grandma will help you with a shovel, how about it?"

While coaxing, Grandma pulled Saga up from the ground.

This time the surrounding environment disappeared as if melting, Lu Ning avoided the splashing droplets and walked into the next place.

Grandma was in the orphanage's office, and Esson pushed the door and walked in.After a period of time, the man's hair and beard have been combed a lot, but compared to the previous vigor, now he is more accustomed to the peaceful life.

"Grandma, what happened to Saga?"

"Mr. Esson, I know that you hope to adopt her after obtaining the qualifications, so I treat you as her adoptive father a little earlier." Grandma's expression was very businesslike, "This is the last time I Let me inform you that if I can't handle it well, I'm afraid I have to report it, and I'm responsible for all the children in the orphanage."

"Again……"

"Yes, this is the medical report." Grandma handed a document to Esson, "The doctor's diagnosis should be fine. Saga will come into contact with insect eggs, and those eggs will naturally bury themselves in her skin However, the traits of these insects have undergone some changes after such growth. The first two times were fine, but this time a nurse was bitten After the death, the whole arm swelled up and had to be amputated. Although it is only a matter of spending a little more money to grow the arm back, this incident is enough to judge that Saga has a certain degree of lethality."

Esson looked at the medical report and frowned.

"You worked in the Supernatural Disaster Response Team before, and I also got relevant information when I adopted Saga. We already have enough reasons to suspect that the incident had some unexpected effects on Saga. Her The mental state and physical condition are not particularly good, if Mr. Esson agrees, we will notify the local handling logistics team..."

"Can you wait for a while?" Esson interrupted Grandma's words.

"please say."

"From this report, it seems that some special things happened to Saga in that incident, which gave her the special ability she has today. But... the basic countermeasure of the processing team is to deal with it first, which I am very clear about. , if Saga is sent over like this plus the previous report, I think she will be supervised for a long time at the first time, and she can only be active in one surveillance unit for at least a year. This is too much for a little girl Some."

"Is that so? I don't know very well." Grandma frowned.

"The treatment team never treats the existence that has clearly shown abnormal conditions as human beings, we have always been like this." Esson said, "It's just that Saga is currently... Actually we can't judge whether this is harmful, can we? Some People with superpowers will do some destructive behavior when they are out of control, but when they grow up, they can use their abilities to protect others, there are not many such cases.”

"You mean, let me give Saga another chance?"

"Grandma, I will tell Saga personally, she will still listen to me." Esson folded the document and put it in his pocket, "I will also teach her how to control her abilities, although I don't have any special abilities , I have seen about a dozen of them, but things like psychological counseling may trouble you, I have no qualifications in this regard."

Grandma sighed softly: "Well, after all, she is a child here, if she is really locked up in that kind of place, it may be even more difficult for her fragile heart to get better."

"Thank you for your understanding!"

The sucking sounds around her became more and more obvious. Lu Ning saw the scene change again, but this time she seemed to hear something crying in her ears, and some people were screaming. The emotions of fear and despair were in this memory world. The sprawl, when the previously peaceful scene dissolves, the last thing to emerge is a blood-stained orphanage.

Insects the size of a fist were wreaking havoc here, and the corpses of nurses and children were everywhere from the corridor to the courtyard outside the door. Grandma fell at the door, her throat was torn open by two cricket-like insects with their mouthparts.Those bugs were greedily devouring flesh and blood, and in the corridor on the first floor where Lu Ning was, Esson trampled to death a bug, raised his pistol, and pointed tremblingly at Saga standing at the end of the corridor.

"Why on earth is this happening?" he growled.

"It's just a quarrel." Saga's voice was as flat as death.

"Just arguing? You ordered bugs to kill everyone?"

"I didn't order them, they just did it themselves."
