Forgetting Rules

A fish swims in the air. Security guard Jiang Ming stared at the surveillance screen with a chill down his back. The next day, colleague Wu Cheng disappeared - not dead, but everyone had forgotten about him. There is no name for him in the owner group, and there is no workstation for him in the duty room. Even the rental house where he has lived for three years is said to be empty by the landlord. Only Jiang Ming still remembers. Because he has also been to that lake. The rules started to break down. Gravity flows backwards, time loops, and space folds. The forgotten become monsters, and monsters make more people forgotten. Cracks are spreading across the country, and things in the shadows are growing. Jiang Ming gained an ability - remember. He remembers every forgotten name and pulls back the devoured souls from the monster's body. He persisted when everyone else gave up. But every time a person is remembered, he himself will be forgotten by the world. The fan in the security room was still spinning and Pan Feng's instant noodles were still steaming. Lin Wan was holding the briquettes and waiting for him to come back. Jiang Ming knew that as long as there are still people who remember them, those who disappeared have not really left. "It's not terrible to be forgotten." "The scary thing is, no one remembers you." "But I remember."
