"Then what? What happened?" Sang Xiaotian continued to ask.
Luo Yan rubbed his eyebrows and said: "I... don't remember much. I seem to have escaped, otherwise I wouldn't be here."
Bai Xiaosheng said gently: "Mr. Luo, please pass your hand to me."
"Ah? Oh." Luo Yan was stunned for a moment, then handed over his hand honestly.
Bai Xiaosheng held his hand and began to carefully sense the other person's body and soul.
After half a minute, he let go and asked: "Mr. Luo, do you think this is reality or a dream?"
Luo Yan stiffened and smiled bitterly: "I know what you mean, but I don't think it's important."
"Oh?" Sang Xiaotian raised his eyebrows, "Why?"
Luo Yan took a bottle of beer and poured himself a glass with a comfortable expression: "There is everything here, food and drink, and you will not be tortured. I like it here."
Bai Xiaosheng said in surprise: "But don't you think it's weird here? Duplicate people and duplicate rooms? It's like a big prison."
"So what, speaking of it...it's not a prison."
Luo Yan muttered while drinking, "I just want to stay here, until I die."
"Okay." Sang Xiaotian nodded and said, "You have a good rest here while we walk around."
After saying that, he pulled Bai Xiaosheng and walked towards the next banquet hall.
When leaving, Bai Xiaosheng looked back at Luo Yan, his childish eyes shining slightly.
"Squeak..."
The door was pushed open, and Sang Xiaotian turned around and asked Bai Xiaosheng, "How is it? Did you see anything?"
The latter nodded: "Most of his soul has disintegrated, only a little bit, almost like the dummies in the banquet hall."
If what I expected is correct, Luo Yan's soul has been corrupted by some kind of force."
Sang Xiaotian crossed his chest and crossed his arms: "According to what he said, before he got here, he definitely weighed more than 100 kilograms. Now... it is estimated that he only weighs just over 100 kilograms."
Bai Xiaosheng thought: "I don't know if the things he ate are real food."
Sang Xiaotian touched his chin and said: "A person weighing 300 pounds can survive for a long time even if he does not eat any food and relies only on his body weight. But without water, he will die in a few days."
p>
"Yes, if the food is fake, is the water real? This spiritual world is really weird." Bai Xiaosheng frowned in confusion.
"There must be some mechanism we don't understand that is maintaining his life."
"Mr. Bai, we must stay vigilant and never touch the food and drinks here. Even those dummies, don't have physical contact with them now." Sang Xiaotian raised his head and said with a serious expression.
"Yeah." Bai Xiaosheng nodded.
In this way, the two of them walked through the halls without stopping.
Until nearly an hour later, they suddenly heard a strange sound in their ears.
Like, coming from a place far, far away.
Woo——
All~~
All~~~
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Bai Xiaosheng's expression changed slightly and he suddenly turned to look behind.
No...there's one above too.
That’s not right either… there’s this sound below too.
It seems... there is something approaching here at a very fast speed.
This strange sound came from all directions.
……
In the corner of the hall, Luo Yan was still eating various delicacies, as if his stomach could never be full.
He raised his head, smiled and greeted the beautiful blond girl sitting elegantly opposite: "Alice, last time you said you wanted to learn to dance, okay, I'll teach you later."
The blond girl has a pretty face and looks to be no more than ten years old.
When she heard Luo Yan's words, she immediately showed a happy smile, held her cheek and talked to Luo Yan in a cheerful tone.
And Luo Yan... was actually able to understand it, and listened and responded at the same time.
If Bai Xiaosheng and Bai Xiaosheng were here, they would be surprised to find that the language spoken by this beautiful girl is completely meaningless chirping.
Several luxuriously dressed gentlemen and ladies around them did not laugh at this pair of completely mismatched men and women, but showed kind smiles.
"What? You want to introduce me to your parents? This, this I..."
Luo Yan was shocked by the girl's sudden words, and touched her cheek in embarrassment, her expression very embarrassed.
Seeing his appearance, the girl's smile became even sweeter. She stood up abruptly and grabbed Luo Yan's hand. She pursed her lips and hummed, dragging him toward the dance floor.
Tread...tap...tap...
The sound of footsteps is crisp.
Luo Yan, who was dragged to the center of the hall by the girl, lowered his head in embarrassment, as if he was not used to the lively scene around him.
But he still froze and held the girl's hand and danced.
At this time, the exciting music began to become soothing and moving, and the light gradually dimmed.
Seeing this situation, Luo Yan seemed to have thought of something, her expression suddenly sank, and she couldn't help but look up at the big golden clock hanging on the wall.
3:0
"The banquet will be over in less than an hour." Luo Yan murmured.
He knew that this cute girl with a charming smile in front of him would forget him again in an hour.
The banquet time will return to 12 noon.
Actually...
This is the 163rd time Luo Yan has ‘met’ the blonde girl Alice.
Every time he spent time with Alice, it was only twelve hours.
Twelve hours later, he will become a stranger in the girl's eyes again.
A stranger who always... loves girls deeply.
Ta...
Ta...
Ta...
The second hand of the clock ticked one after another, and Luo Yan skillfully pulled Alice to dance.
There was a sudden snap, and his left little finger was accidentally twisted.
The bone stubble pierced the flesh and came out of the body, but there was no trace of blood, and even the muscle faults were pale.
Luo Yan didn't pay attention, and easily twisted the severed finger back to its original position, and continued to talk, laugh, and dance with Alice, who was unfamiliar with her skills.
In fact, from the 97th time he met Alice, he completely lost his sense of pain, his blood dried up, and his body's vitality was rapidly losing.
From the 60th time he met Alice, he was finally able to understand her words.
The 46th time she met Anna, she... finally responded to him.
Time seems to have returned to the moment when I first entered this hall.
No disputes, no deception, no poverty and hunger.
There is only twelve hours in the world, and there is still no time for oppression and sin to be born.
In this world, even if he gradually loses weight and becomes neither human nor ghost, so what?
Clock - 00:00.
The world will return to its starting point, everyone will be still, and only Luo Yan can move freely.
He looked at Alice's beautiful face carefully, sighed, and said softly: "See you later."
Woo~~~~
A distant buzzing sound came, and Luo Yan suddenly woke up.
"Huh? What sound!"
He looked surprised and looked around, but found nothing unusual.
I can only hear the sound getting closer and closer.
Suddenly...
