My grandfather passed away and I returned to the village to attend the funeral.
Neighbor Uncle Wang came to express his condolences. His movements were stiff, his eyes were empty, and he spoke like he was reciting lines.
I thought he was too sad and didn't care.
At 6 o'clock in the morning the next day, I was woken up by the crow of roosters, and I accidentally looked out the window——
Uncle Wang opened the door on time, walked to the door on time, and lit a cigarette on time.
Same second as yesterday.
I started observing him. Three days later, I confirmed one thing:
Uncle Wang is not a human being. He is a program.
Not just Uncle Wang. The whole village is filled with coffin bearers, cooks, and chanters.
The only normal one is me.
No. There is one more.
Village doctor Li Qiuyu said: "You finally discovered it."
She said that the last person to discover the truth was my grandfather.
He has been "assimilated".
There are still 23 days until I am assimilated.
