Capsule System

"Do you know why we searched in that building for so long but found nothing?"

Seeing Bai Ling coming out, Lin Cheng stood up from the ground and asked her calmly.

But Bai Ling's expression was startled after hearing his question, and he asked, "Why?"

"Very simple."

With a smile, Lin Cheng took out a cigarette from the cigarette case in front of Bai Ling, knead it a few times at random, and threw it on the ground under his feet. The cigarette paper and shredded tobacco crushed by him slowly fell down. Go, forming a small pile of garbage under his feet.

Seeing Lin Cheng's inexplicable behavior, Bai Ling's doubts deepened, and he couldn't understand what this guy was doing.

But the next moment, her eyes suddenly went straight!

Because, as the last piece of tobacco fell to the ground, the ground at Lin Cheng’s feet suddenly seemed to be alive. After a few wriggles, the tobacco that had originally piled up at Lin Cheng’s feet disappeared instantly. The rubbish disappeared, and the ground returned to normal again, as if the previous change was just an illusion.

"This this……"

Pointing to the ground at the foot of Lin Cheng, Bai Ling's expression was astonished at this time, and she wanted to say something, but because she was so shocked, she couldn't speak a complete sentence after opening her mouth for a long time.

"Sure enough..."

But Lin Cheng didn’t have the time to pay attention to Bai Ling’s expression at this time. Like the other party, it was the first time he saw this strange phenomenon. Although he knew it in his heart, when he saw the broken pieces he had thrown to the ground. After the crumbs were'eaten' by the road, the shock in my heart was still somewhat uncontrollable.

"How do you know this?"

After the shock, Bai Ling suddenly remembered Lin Cheng's actions just now, and quickly asked him.

Hearing this, Lin Cheng shrugged and said: "Guess it! Not to mention the last group of people who have been here, just say us, I just smoked at least three cigarettes, and the range of activities has been controlled from here to the front. Building, what’s the result? It’s just such a small area, I just didn’t pay attention, the cigarette butts and soot that I lost before disappeared! There is no wind and rain here, what else do you think is the reason for this situation?"

"Well……"

Hearing Lin Cheng’s analysis, Bai Ling nodded clearly. Actually, it’s no wonder she didn’t notice this. After all, the two of them only smoked in Lin Cheng, and only Lin Cheng would come here for a short time. It was possible to create'garbage' within an hour, and it was normal that he was the first to discover the strangeness.

"So, all the things we couldn't find in the building just now were actually due to this weird ground?"

After stepping on the ground lightly, Bai Ling raised his head and asked Lin Cheng softly.

"What do you mean?"

Hearing Bai Ling's words, Lin Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes, "That building is likely to be a supermarket. Do you think people here can create a ground with the ability to'self-purify', don't you know how? Avoid normal items being sucked away?"

"that……"

Hearing what Lin Cheng said, Bai Ling realized that she was thinking too simple, but now her face is obviously thicker than before, and her expression is unchanged, and she continues to ask: "Then why did we search so many times? What did you find?"

After thinking about it, Lin Cheng sighed lightly and said: "I guess, there should have been things there, but it was moved away by the people who came here decades ago..."

"Move away?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ling's expression was startled, "You mean, there was something originally there, but it was discovered by the first group of people and moved to another place for research?"

"Probably!"

Nodded, Lin Cheng felt a little helpless. Now the situation has gradually become clear. If he guessed correctly, according to the working style of the group of people decades ago, except that the supermarket was emptied, other things Things in the place may have been evacuated...

Bai Ling naturally thought of this, and his expression suddenly became a little ugly. The two of them had a hard time entering here. They thought they could find something good, but it was very likely that the bamboo basket was empty. I don't even have to drink the soup!

After staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes for a moment, Lin Cheng rallied and said: "Anyway, this is our guess for the time being. If this city is so big, maybe those people will miss something and not find it. Maybe? It’s useless to say anything now. The most urgent thing is to go through all the buildings in the city before talking."

After all, in order not to waste time, Lin Cheng raised his flashlight and walked directly to another building next to the supermarket.

Looking at Lin Cheng's back, Bai Ling opened his mouth, and finally said nothing, speeding up his steps.

...

One afternoon passed.

Standing on the roof of the tallest building in the city, Lin Cheng squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. With the help of night vision, he could see the appearance of half of the city almost unobstructed.

The scale of this city was much larger than he thought. He and Bai Ling searched non-stop for an entire afternoon, but they didn’t even search for one-tenth of the city. I can imagine that I want to search thoroughly. How long will it take to finish this city.

However, Lin Cheng was somewhat distracted at this time. The search in the afternoon did not bring them any gains. All the buildings were empty and seemed to have been swept by a typhoon. In addition to the original infrastructure, they were connected. No hairs were found.

If at first he thought he had a chance to find what those people missed, then after this afternoon’s search, he has basically concluded that with the level of detail these people searched for, he might even turn the whole city over. I can't shake anything down either.

Because of this, Lin Cheng stopped searching at ten o'clock in the evening in this abyssal city where there was no distinction between day and night, because even if he searched tirelessly, it would be difficult to find useful clues.

But he didn't plan to just give up like this, and finally got here, even if he didn't get anything in the end, he still had to turn this place upside down to be at ease.He has entered a lot of weird places, but he is sure that this is definitely the strangest place he has ever entered in his life. What's more, this place is most likely to be related to the last days on the surface, coupled with the inexplicable changes in Bai Ling. How could he leave willingly?

Bai Ling naturally saw his attachment, so she never mentioned leaving from the beginning to the end, and compared to Lin Cheng, she actually wanted to know what was going on. Why is there such a city of the future thousands of meters deep underground? And why did she inexplicably become stronger after entering here?
