Chapter 821 Phantom?

Shang Jianyao just ran a few steps towards the lit cafe in the mist and stopped again.

"What's wrong?" Gennava said the brakes.

Shang Jianyao looked at the two figures reflected in the cafe window and said in a lowered voice:

"I can't sense their human consciousness.

"I can already see them, but I still can't sense their human consciousness.

“So, eliminate all the impossibilities, and the remaining one, no matter how ridiculous it is, is still the truth.

"They are ghosts..."

Gennava replied cogently:

"In this environment, if it's just a ghost, it wouldn't be too dangerous."

"Do you look down on ghosts?" Shang Jianyao was dissatisfied, "Don't look at Xiaohong's tough mouth every time, but she is actually very scared in her heart!"

"What I mean is that compared to other situations, ghosts are relatively less dangerous existences. At least, they are definitely weaker than the human body that sleeps in the old age." Gnawa fully expressed his opinion.

Shang Jianyao skipped this topic, looked at the only light in the darkness and said:

“Whether it is a ghost or not, you have to ask to know for sure.

"I went over to say hello and make friends as planned."

Gennava originally wanted to say that we had no such original plan, but Shang Jianyao had already taken steps and walked straight into the depths of the faint mist.

The yellowish light of the roadside cafe is like a beacon guiding pedestrians in a dark environment.

Gnawa was ready for a fight, forming a quarrel with Shang Jianyao, and headed towards the cafe.

The surroundings were unusually quiet, not even the sound of wind.

Soon, Shang Jianyao, wearing a military exoskeleton device, arrived at his destination.

The decoration of the cafe is very old-world classic, with heavy brown wooden doors topped by thick frosted glass.

After controlling the reckless one, Shang Jianyao didn't rush to push the door in. He walked directly to the window and waved to the man and woman:

"Hello you all!"

He greeted warmly in Honghe dialect.

Whether it was the lady with long blond hair and a white dress, or the old man in formal clothes with brown eyes, they all turned a deaf ear to his performance and continued to chat about their own topics and drink the faintly hot coffee.

They didn't seem to see Shang Jianyao's wave or hear his greeting at all.

"The sound insulation effect is so good?" Shang Jianyao leaned over and put his ear to the glass window, trying to hear what the two people inside were talking about.

But he heard nothing.

He opened his eyes wide again and looked at the scene inside, only to find that only the part of the cafe facing the window was illuminated by light, and it became darker and darker as he went inside, until there was no light.

In this part of the area with light, there are four or five tables, and there are only two customers.

"A bit weird." It was Gnawa who commented.

Shang Jian Yaoning nodded:

"It seems that the only way to find out the problem is to go in."

"Is there any node that senses the 'New World'?" Gennava asked for confirmation.

"No." Shang Jianyao shook his head, walked to the heavy brown wooden door, and stretched out his right hand.

With the assistance of the military exoskeleton device, he easily opened the door.

Then, with a strong desire to perform, he shouted inside:

“Check the water meter!

"Give me a cup of coffee by the way."

No one responded to him.

Shang Jianyao walked into the cafe and immediately turned his attention to the area not covered by lights.

There was almost no light there, and there were all kinds of debris piled up there, as if a group of monsters were being raised in the darkness.

"It doesn't look like a cafe..." Shang Jianyao, who was assisted by a night vision device, did not hide his opinion.

"Indeed." Gnawa agreed.

He felt that the unlit areas looked more like abandoned shops.

Valuable items and functional cabinets had been removed, leaving only a pile of messy items.

"The problem is the part with lights?" Shang Jianyao had one arm paralyzed and the other holding the "Berserker" assault rifle, unable to rub his chin.

He and Gnawa turned their attention to the window at the same time.

The man and woman were still chatting, but no sound came out.

Moreover, they had no reaction to the entry of Shang Jianyao and Gnawa.

"You two!" Shang Jianyao shouted, his attitude was quite friendly.

No one paid any attention to him.

He walked step by step towards the table by the window.

As the distance got closer and the angle changed, he could see clearly what the lady who had turned her back to him and Gnawa looked like:

She has beautiful features, thin cheeks, eyes as blue as the sea, and a few crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. She appears to be around forty years old.

At this time, she was sitting there, in a very relaxed state, taking a sip of coffee from time to time, and seemed to be fully enjoying her leisure time.

It can be seen that she often does this and has a certain intellectual and elegant temperament.

The left hand of the old man opposite her has been shaking uncontrollably. This along with his left arm, left body and left leg are obviously not normal. Even if there is support, they still appear to be trembling.

Shang Jianyao said hello again in Gray dialect, but still received no response.

Undeterred, he persisted in using the few dialects he knew and took a few steps closer to the coffee table.

"I can't smell the coffee." He turned his head and said to Gennava who was guarding the door to guard against any surprises.

"Phantom?" Gennava analyzed such a possibility and then asked confirmingly, "Have you turned on the 'anti-virus filtering system' of the military exoskeleton device?"

"It must be turned on! What should I do if I get poisoned if I don't turn it on in a place like this?" Shang Jianyao answered confidently.

"Is there a possibility that the 'anti-virus filtration system' actually intercepted the coffee aroma?" Gennava reminded.

Shang Jianyao suddenly realized:

"yes!"

Because one hand is paralyzed, he cannot perform the right fist and left palm.

"Pay attention to my condition and be ready to inject me with biological antidote at any time." Shang Jianyao shouted, and stopped the operation of the "anti-virus filtering system" without waiting for Gnawa's response.

Then, he said excitedly:

“There is a little bit of coffee aroma, but it’s very weak, which is not normal. I’m almost right next to them!

"What's going on with these two people? We've been whispering for so long and they haven't responded yet."

As he spoke, Shang Jianyao gave up his hold on the "Berserker" assault rifle and let it hang down on his body.

Then, he stretched out his right palm and stretched it towards the old man who seemed to be a bit disobedient with half of his body.

No, it's the coffee cup in front of the old man.

Seeing this, Gnawa gave up his words of dissuasion. After all, Shang Jianyao did not touch the two strange figures directly.

"I am a person who always respects the old and loves the young. Grandpa, I see that your hands and feet are not very convenient. I will help you carry the cup and feed you a drink." Shang Jianyao stretched out his hand and said a bunch of things. words.

The two still ignored him.

The next second, his fingers passed through the coffee cup and touched nothing.

After moving his fingers a few times, Shang Jian Yaoyin said a little disappointed:

"phantom."

"It is indeed a phantom." Gnawa moved his metal neck up and down.

Shang Jianyao reached out to the old man in a formal suit and tie again, and as expected saw his palm passing through the other person's body.

But the old man was still talking to the lady opposite, nothing unusual.

Of course, no sound came out of this.

"It's just a phantom." Shang Jianyao sighed again.

At the same time, he tried to push the blond woman again according to his own self-defined and substandard handling process.

His hand went through the other person's arm again.

"What would Dabai do if he knew about this situation?" Shang Jianyao withdrew his metal-skeletal palm.

Gnawa's first reaction was to contact Jiang Baimian, but the electromagnetic interference here was more serious, causing him to fail.

At this time, Shang Jianyao was rubbing his chin and said:

"The first is to find the source of the phantom, and the second is to record the mouth patterns of the two phantoms and analyze what they are talking about later."

"I'm already recording, and now I'm going to record and analyze at the same time." Gnawa responded immediately.

Shang Jianyao took two steps sideways and used the power of the "Angel of Life" necklace to sense the situation in the cafe more carefully.

"It's no problem..." He muttered a few words, "Let's take a look around, maybe it's outside the sensing range."

As he spoke, he walked towards the door of the cafe, where Gnawa was.

Suddenly, the two phantoms who were drinking coffee and chatting turned their heads sideways and looked at him at the same time!

Among them, the lady wearing a white dress and wavy blond hair frowned slightly, her eyes half-closed, as if she was listening to something.

"Someone is calling her? The source of the phantom, someone is calling her?" Shang Jianyao guessed excitedly.

Gnawa said in a slightly synthetic voice:

"If that's the case, we can stay a few more minutes and see what happens."

He believed that there were many possibilities for the origin of the phantom, and no rough conclusions could be drawn.

Even what he considers to be the most likely scenario, there are several:

First, the natural video function caused by the disorder of the electromagnetic environment constantly reproduces certain things that happened in Cornynmis;

Second, this is what is happening right now, in another place in Konimis, because the chaos of the electromagnetic environment is projected here.

Third, a certain movie from the past played on an endless loop in this weird environment.

The next second, the blond lady opened her eyes, looked at where Shang Jianyao was, and opened her mouth to say something.

Gennava quickly analyzed the lip language, but at the same time, Shang Jianyao shouted:

“She, she’s talking to me!

"I heard her voice!"

He was extremely excited.

Before Shang Jianyao could finish speaking, Gennava had already analyzed the complete content of the lip speech just now:

"The divine companion of 'Si Ming'?"

Immediately afterwards, Shang Jianyao shouted:

"She, she is asking me if I am a descendant of 'Si Ming'!"
