There were many people at the subway station, and there was a subway station. Many pedestrians with numb expressions walked down from it. They followed the rules of walking to the right expressionlessly and passed by another group of numb people.
"Please abide by the rules, get off first and then get on..."
The broadcasting is mechanical and rigid, but with a comfortable and gentleness, it broadcasts repeated words over and over again.
Yu Xing walked in from the east entrance and observed around him. He only looked at him with a little concealment to make some pedestrians notice it. Those who were playing with their mobile phones, waiting for others, and those who were chatting were paying more attention to him, and glanced at him from time to time.
A row of people just got off the car and walked past him. He was covered in dust. He glanced at him from the bottom of his eyes, then withdrew his gaze and walked towards Zhao Ruru who was waiting in front of him.
"Are you coming so quickly?" Zhao Ruru was touching the red straps on his wrist. He accidentally looked up and saw Yu Xing. She came up, a little surprised, "How long has it been."
Yu Xing raised his eyebrows and corrected: "Thirty minutes, it's not going to be fast."
He came out of the cemetery and took a taxi and walked into the subway station. The time he spent was definitely not fast for an anxious person, especially because the mission goal was lost. How could Zhao Ruru say such a thing?
Unless—she is really surprised.
Sure enough, Zhao Ruru took out his cell phone, pulled out a tired smile, and looked at the screen: "Thirty minutes? What a joke, it's obviously...hey!?"
"Really...wait, why is it almost two o'clock?" She was stunned for a moment, then frowned tightly, "Zhou Xue and I just took the high-speed rail. It's impossible for us to take so long."
Zhao Ruru's palm was hot, and her right hand clenched her fist was holding the coin: "Time is not right."
When she called Yu Xing just now, she also looked at her cell phone, but she didn't pay attention to the time.
Before she knew it, time seemed to pass too quickly, so she couldn't imagine that she could fill such a big vacancy.
"Yes~ Congratulations, you finally realized that there was a gap in time between us, and this time seemed to be mine." Yu Xing's time passed normally. He put his hands in his pocket and felt that there were too many people around him and was inconvenient to speak. He raised his chin to the corner where there were few people, and signaled to go there.
But in fact, there is nothing that can be heard in the subway station. Both of them need to maintain the character of the role they play in front of NPCs, so they can only talk briefly.
Yu Xing leaned against the pillar of the site, his face dark and gloomy: "Does there be any signs before she leaves?"
For a moment, Zhao Ruru thought Yu Xing was learning Zhao Yijiu, but after two seconds he realized that Yu Xing told her last night that his character was just like this strange look.
Probably... all artists have weird personalities?
She put aside the thoughts that were not there for a moment and replied: "No, I got off the car before her and turned around and disappeared."
Yu Xing accepted the look of passers-by around him, became accustomed to these gazes, and then said, "Can she not get off the car at all?"
Zhao Ruru was so happy: "Do you think I am mentally retarded?"
Can't she calculate the difference between not getting off the car and disappearing after getting off the car?
"Oh." Yu Xing just said casually. He looked at the crowded subway station and listened to Zhao Ruru's retelling about her "how worried about her neighbors" she heard it. Then he was impatient: "It seems that there is no way to find the subway station. Let's go out and take a look first?"
Since Zhou Xue can disappear, this place cannot be viewed by common sense. Instead of hoping to find Zhou Xue in some corner, it is better to look forward to whether Zhou Xue will appear by himself after leaving the subway station.
It is useless to spend time doing useless work here. Zhou Xue’s temporary safety does not mean that she will be safe in a while, and time cannot be wasted.
Zhao Ruru just wanted to find an excuse to gather with Yu Xing. She had to be as informative as Yu Xing, otherwise it would be easy for ghosts to use. She naturally agreed to Yu Xing's proposal.
By the way, she also "telled" Yu Xing about Zhou Xue's encounter with a ghost in her dream on the grounds of worry, which was considered to be a supplementary setting, allowing Yu Xing to appear in front of Zhou Xue to provide a reasonable explanation.
The two of them had a good idea and walked all the way out. Yu Xing came in from the east gate and left the west gate with Zhao Ruru this time.
Another train stopped, and the two of them left these disturbing sounds behind them from inside the car and took the elevator up.
The end of the elevator is the exit. Not far away is a commercial street with buildings of all kinds. But when they go out, they look up and see not the beautiful blue sky with sparkling clouds like when they go out, but the gray sky like a black veil.
Just like when the cloudy day is approaching, endless colorless cloths are wrapped around the world, as if they are about to fall into another empty dream together.
Street lights with unique shapes illuminated, reflected in Yu Xing's ink-colored pupils, replacing the disappearing stars and reflecting a circle of stars.
Yu Xing's shadow is not very clear and elusive in these illusory brilliances.
He looked at the sky, and the meaning of thinking flashed in his eyes, stepped out of the elevator, and stepped into the hustle and bustle.
"It's evening..." Zhao Ruru looked around in surprise, and had some new ideas about the background setting of this stage of the task.
Before, when I first came in, the world was particularly normal, just like everything in the "real world" was stable and followed the rules, while the "dream world" was completely separated from reality, which belonged to Zhou Xue's experience alone.
So subconsciously, whether she or Yu Xing, they thought that there would be no regular and weirdness in the "real world", unless it was like going to a cemetery to specifically trigger a plot.
But what happened? Zhou Xue disappeared silently in "reality", and the sky changed from blue to gray and black when they didn't see it.
This shows that this "real world" is not as peaceful as they imagined. Under the bustling illusion, there is a surging undercurrent.
Zhao Ruru looked at his phone again and saw that the number was more than one o'clock a few minutes ago, which was close to two o'clock now, and now it has become over six o'clock and is about to end night.
"It seems that we have a wrong understanding of the three-day time limit." Yu Xing was beside her, and his tone was calm no matter how he heard it. Zhao Ruru even suspected that he had expected this to happen before he came to the subway station to find her, so now it was just expected.
"She doesn't need to be protected for 72 hours. Sometimes time will be skipped by large sections." He stopped in the square. "I was almost no time jumped yesterday, but today I jumped one after another. There must be a reason."
"Is this the reason the key?" Zhao Ruru rarely met Yu Xing's brain waves in his fatigue. "By the way! Is Zhou Xue's disappearance related to the time jump? It happened that time changed at that time, so she disappeared on the spot. In fact, she went to another timeline normally?"
