Chapter 3876 Ring and Bottle
However, Ingres also confirmed the method used by "people with stories" to present stories - the screen projection of the space of consciousness.
Ingres personally prefers this way of presentation.
Moreover, judging from the movements on Com's side, he had no idea that his story had been captured.
Capture stories silently and broadcast them.
Not only is it convenient, but it is also very concealed.
While Angel was thinking, Com finally finished his work and walked over with a somewhat tattered ring and a bottle covered with dirt.
These two objects were exactly what the radio had detected, and were suspected to contain sources of space-time information: "the ring that sank in the lake" and "the bottle buried under the holographic tree."
"Space-time information source" occupies a large part of the explanation in the information flood and is a very profound concept.
But in fact, putting aside those obscure interpretations, we can simply understand the "space-time information source" as: the unique mark left by the power of emotion in time and space.
To put it more bluntly, it carries the imprint of the user's strong emotions.
Any strong emotion cannot be generated overnight. The power of emotion must transcend time and space and is generated gradually.
For example, as children grow up, they develop a strong attachment to an inanimate object, usually a soft blanket, an old piece of clothing, a doll, or other soft object that provides comfort and security and helps children cope with separation anxiety and other emotional challenges.
These things, collectively referred to as "Abebe", are actually "objects that carry strong emotions" and are also the so-called "sources of space-time signals".
There are many things like Abebe that "express emotions through objects", and even some that "express emotions through people", and all these objects or humans can be called sources of space-time signals.
The ring and bottle that Com just found are also sources of space-time signals and can be perceived by "story resonance".
Angel's eyes first turned to the ring that was obviously damaged and corroded.
"Resonate this ring." Angel ordered.
The radio, which was still in a daze, immediately burst out with a mysterious energy wave after receiving the command. When this wave spread to the ring, several chaotic sounds rang out of thin air.
"Sir, do you want something engraved on the inside of the ring? Oh, these two characters...Charlene, is this your fiancée?"
"What do I need to pay attention to when making a ring? Yes, you explained it very well. It's you. We will use this customer's order as your graduation work... Let me see, the characters of Charlene should be engraved inside..."
"Charlene, I love you, I will always be with you..."
"Sinke, I like you too."
"..."
"Charlene, why did you do this to me? Why did you do this?! You were even wearing the ring I gave you, you..."
"Sink, love is fulfillment."
"If love is about fulfillment, why can't you fulfill me?"
"Hahaha, you two deserve to die, damn it!"
"don't want--"
These voices come from different people, but it can be heard that they are basically centered around the "ring".
The protagonists should be Charlene and Sinke.
They seem to be a couple, and the vast majority of audio signals come from the two of them, from falling in love to knowing each other, and then to the final betrayal and madness.
This ring witnessed this "sadomasochistic love".
In the last few audio clips, Angel heard the sounds of hacking, liquid splashing, women's screams, men's madness, and gurgling sounds of falling into the water.
If nothing unexpected happens, the final ending will have shifted from a romance drama to a criminal investigation drama.
Not only did Angel hear this, but Com next to him was also stunned and stuttered: "First, sir... this is..."
Angel did not hide it and said directly: "Through the magic of fashion, analyze and listen to the emotions that this item carried in the past. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like a particularly beautiful story."
Kangm felt his throat was a little dry. This was no longer a happy or sad story, but a murder case. He had to call the police!
Looking at Com's horrified look, Angel threw the ring to him.
Kangm stepped back in fear at first, but when he saw the ring flying in a parabola in the air, he reached out and took it.
"I'll leave it to you. If you plan to call the police, this can be considered as physical evidence. Although there is no audio, it is a bit difficult to turn it into decisive evidence..." Angel: "But you have heard the story. This thing was thrown into Moonlight Lake. The man named Sink is likely to have some connection with Modern Middle School. With these clues, it will be easy to solve the case."
Kang Mu: "Sir? Are you asking me to report the crime?"
Angel shook his head. "No, I'll leave it to you to decide. You can also choose to sell it. Although it's a little corroded, the price shouldn't be too discounted."
Angel didn't care about the follow-up of this matter. Although the criminal should be punished, but... this was just a copy after all.
While Com stared at the ring in silence, Angel's eyes turned to the bottle covered with wet mud.
The bottle was not opened, but Ingres had seen what was inside the bottle from a God's perspective.
There were a lot of different things inside, including letters, pens, small toys, handicrafts, and even some hair and pieces of clothing.
From the content of the letter, we can know that the writer is a girl named Selina. From the content of the letter, we can know that the bottle is hers, and it was her own idea to bury it by the Moonlight Lake.
She treated the bottle as a "time capsule" and after burying it, she planned to open it ten years later to reminisce about her youth.
Therefore, the things in here are probably items that show Selina's youth, just so that she can recognize them ten years later.
Ingres used the "story resonance" on the bottle with the radio, and soon, a childish girl's voice came out of nowhere.
This time, there was only one person narrating the story, and if nothing unexpected happened, it was Selina herself.
The general content is similar to what Angel guessed, this bottle is Selina's time capsule, left for her future self. But there are some subtle differences.
The main reason why Selina made this bottle for her future self was that she was "broken-hearted".
To be more precise, her secret crush failed. The boy she had a crush on got a girlfriend. She felt like the world had fallen apart and her emotions were in turmoil.
A girl's feelings are always poetic, so the poetry in Selina's heart at this moment is a poem of emotion.
"I must remember the emotion at this moment. I can no longer have a crush on any man casually, especially the man named Tom! I want to cut off my hair to show my determination!"
She left this bottle because she wanted to record the emotions of that moment and warn herself ten years later.
It sounds particularly childish.
But this is actually in line with the thinking of girls of this age. After experiencing a certain emotional setback, they want to remember it for a lifetime. But in fact, this emotion will often only become the main theme of life for a short period of time. Time will definitely take away these twists and turns until they are forgotten.
From the message in the bottle, we know that Selina buried the bottle three years ago. Although it has not been ten years yet, Angel believes that Selina has probably forgotten the night when she buried the bottle in anger three years ago.
Perhaps Selina herself has forgotten the feelings at that time, but the time-sharing radio has not forgotten, the bottle that represents emotion has not forgotten, and the "broken hair" that expresses her determination has not forgotten.
This is also why "Story Resonance" can find the bottle.
After the incident with the ring and the bottle, Angel understood the general effect of "Story Resonance". Although compared with "People with Stories", Story Resonance did not have a picture, but only audio, it could clearly sense the strong emotions of the user at that time.
Ingle personally feels that although "story resonance" may not be as expressive as "people with stories".
but!
It is not easy to extract such strong emotions from a lifeless object.
After all, living people can definitely carry more information than inanimate objects.
In short, Angel personally thinks these two abilities are pretty good.
……
Angel wiped off the magic circle ritual on the ground, and then buried Selina's bottle back under the holographic tree.
After doing all this, Angle walked to the side and patted Com's shoulder: "It's time to go."
Com came back to his senses from his trance and subconsciously followed Angel out.
Angel: "What are you going to do with this ring? Are you going to call the police or just leave it alone?"
Com was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I still plan to hand it over to the sheriff."
Angel was not surprised by Com's choice.
Although Com is a bit greedy sometimes, it can be seen from some small details that he is a person with a strong sense of justice.
This choice he made is consistent with his personality.
Angel knew that Com was such a person, so he gave the ring to him. Otherwise, Com would probably have trouble thinking in his dreams for a long time in the future.
"But I thought about it. If I go there in person, I won't be able to explain it clearly. Besides, I don't want to involve the adults." Kang Mu's eyes flashed with determination: "So, I plan to call the police anonymously."
He would write the details in a letter and hand it to the people in the Sheriff's Office so that it would not affect Angel.
Angel: "What if that person named Sinker becomes a powerful person, or a member of the Sheriff's Office, and your anonymous letter ends up in his hands? What will you do?"
Kang: “Huh?”
Angel continued, "Also, we just heard some audio signals and didn't actually see the scene. What if Sinke didn't actually kill Charlene?"
Kang Mu was confused: "Huh? No, that's unlikely, right?"
Angel did not answer and continued to ask: "What if more than one person was killed at the scene?"
Kang Mu: "But, the audio just now only contained Charlene's screams."
"That's because the ring belongs to Charlene, and it only records the sounds around Charlene. What if someone saw Sink killing someone, and then Sink chased after that person and killed that person as well? In that case, the ring would not record it."
Kangmu was completely dizzy at this time and didn't know how to answer.
Angel: "Of course, the probability of the situations I mentioned is not high, and it is highly unlikely that they will occur... However, we can't completely rule out these possibilities, right?"
The reason why Angel suddenly extended the topic was that he just stopped by the archives room of Modern Middle School to check.
Because he had looked up Danny's information before, Angle was very familiar with the archives room. It took him almost no effort to find the person named "Sinker".
He was a teacher at Modern Middle School ten years ago, but later resigned and his whereabouts are unknown.
It is worth mentioning that in the year he resigned, two teachers suddenly disappeared. One was named Charlene and the other was named Blair. They disappeared almost at the same time. Until now, the case has not been solved.
Angel didn't know whether Blair had any relationship with Charlene and Sinke, but they disappeared at the same time, so there might be something strange about it.
Maybe he was also killed by Xinke.
That's why Angel gave Com a reminder, and also reminded himself: before doing anything, think about the possible problems you may encounter.
As for why he didn't tell Kang directly, it was mainly because he didn't want to spoil Kang's fun. Kang was going to attend a scary party soon, so there was no need to add to his burden.
When they walked to the old teaching building, they heard bursts of exclamations coming from inside. Obviously, the influence of the Halloween party was still continuing, and from the crowd gathered outside the old teaching building, it could be seen that everyone seemed to be attracted by the horror makeup.
For young people, the more bizarre something is, the more attractive it is.
Angel found an empty space and customized an illusion mask for Com.
"Go."
Angel signaled to Com to move freely, then turned and left with the radio.
……
Looking at the radio floating beside him, Angel thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to stay outside or go into the magic book?"
However, the only response from the Time Radio was a meaningless "buzzing" sound.
Angel: "..."
Ingres had asked Turing this question before, but at that time Turing wanted to stay outside so that he could quickly access external information and enrich his own wisdom.
But the Time Radio is different from Turing after all, and Ingres doesn’t know whether to leave it outside or put it away.
"Forget it, let's just stay outside."
Although Angel didn't know whether it could learn from Turing and increase its wisdom through external knowledge, he had to try it.
Angel directly covered the radio with a layer of nightmare, obscuring its shape.
After doing all this, Angel looked at the radio, which was still ignorant, and fell into deep thought.
"It's time to give you a name."
"Turing also has his own name, and you should also have a name..."
"But what would be a more appropriate name?"
