I thought that the recipient would appear after twelve o'clock, but in the end I found that fifteen minutes had passed and there was still no change at all in the old house.
Not to mention the recipient, not even a ghost appeared.
This makes one wonder if they got the time wrong.
The twelve o'clock given in the post office task is not the current time, but the time twenty-four hours later.
Although they were suspicious, everyone did not relax completely.
They planned to wait for another hour.
If the recipient has not appeared within an hour, it is basically certain that the recipient will appear in twenty-four hours.
During the waiting period, Yang Jian, Zhou Deng and others chatted without a word during the meeting;
In addition to passing this boring time, they also wanted to exchange information.
Li Yue on the side just listened quietly the whole time and did not express any opinions.
Because at this time more of his energy was spent thinking about it.
Li Yue always felt that this time was the right time and the time when the recipient would appear.
It is only because of some reasons that the recipient has not appeared yet.
Li Yue felt that he should know this reason, but he had missed it.
Just when everyone felt that the recipient of the letter would not show up, something unexpected happened suddenly.
That was at 12:25 in the evening.
"Crunch!"
In the originally quiet, almost lifeless old house, suddenly there was the sound of an old wooden door being opened.
Although the sound was not loud, it seemed particularly clear in this quiet ancient house.
A moment.
The expressions of everyone who gradually became a little relaxed suddenly changed.
Then everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from.
That's...the direction of the back hall.
Everyone looked at each other and their eyes became cautious.
Although it was just a sound, everyone present was sure that the movement came from the back hall.
In other words, the back door that was closed by them before was probably opened by someone.
"I remember that the back door and the front door were both closed and bolted before. They couldn't be pushed open easily." Li Yang looked very serious.
At that time, the back door was closed in front of everyone and bolted under everyone's gaze.
Now he is being pushed away easily, which is obviously abnormal.
And they all know that there is only a ghost forest and the cemetery outside the back door.
No matter what kind of existence opens the back door, it can be guessed that it is definitely not a good thing.
There is a high probability that it is a vicious ghost.
At this moment, Li Yue suddenly looked at the time, a light flashed in his eyes, and then a smile appeared on his face;
"It seems that the recipient we are waiting for has arrived."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed.
It has been so long, and they feel that it is not certain who enters the old house now, it should be said that there is a high probability that it is a ghost.
The probability of being the recipient is very small.
But Li Yue was so sure, which made them very puzzled.
After all, Li Yue didn't even see what the being who came in from the back door looked like.
Liu Qingqing even asked directly:
"How can you be sure that the person who came in is the recipient? Don't forget that the post office said that the recipient would show up at twelve o'clock in the evening.
It’s already 12:25, and the time doesn’t match up at all.”
After listening to Liu Qingqing's words, Zhou Deng, Ding Hui, Li Yang, and Yang Xiaohua couldn't help but nod.
They also felt that what Liu Qingqing said just now was reasonable.
But at this time Li Yue smiled and shook his head:
"No, you're wrong. The time now is just right, it's exactly twelve o'clock in the evening."
As soon as Li Yue said these words, Yang Jian's expression suddenly moved slightly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
A look of surprise appeared on his face at the same time.
But the reaction of the remaining people was different from Yang Jian's reaction.
After hearing Li Yue's words, they all looked at Li Yue with surprised expressions on their faces.
"Li Yue, are you sure there is nothing wrong with you?" Zhou Deng even made no secret of it, looking at Li Yue with very strange eyes.
Even if Li Yue is stronger than the captain, he can't talk nonsense with his eyes open.
He was very sure that the current time was twelve twenty-five. Even if there was an error, it would only be a few minutes at most, and it would still not match twelve o'clock.
At this time, Zhou Deng even suspected that Li Yue had been affected by some strange influence, which was why he was getting the time wrong now.
"No, Li Yue was right. It is indeed twelve o'clock."
Before Li Yue could explain, Yang Jian suddenly spoke, and he agreed with Li Yue's statement.
This made everyone's expressions change again.
If Li Yue was the only one who said it was twelve o'clock, they would only think that something was wrong with Li Yue.
But now that even Yang Jian said this, they had to think about the deeper meaning.
After all, among the people present, Li Yue and Yang Jian are the most powerful, and it is unlikely that they will have problems at the same time.
They even have some doubts. If there is no problem between Li Yue and Yang, then they are the only ones who have problems.
Just when everyone was confused, Li Yue glanced at Yang Jian.
When Yang Jian spoke just now, he knew that Yang Jian had also reacted.
This was also something Li Yue had always felt he had missed.
The time had clearly reached twelve o'clock just now, but the recipient did not show up. Li Yue also suspected that the time was wrong at first.
It should be twenty-four hours later.
But Li Yue somehow felt that the time was not wrong, it was now twelve o'clock.
If the recipient does not show up on time, there must be other reasons.
Previously, Li Yue had been thinking about the reason.
It wasn't until the back door of the back hall was pushed open that Li Yue finally remembered.
The recipient did not appear at the specified time, not because of other reasons, but because Yang Jian restarted it for 25 minutes yesterday.
At that time, the scope of Yang Jian's restart happened to include the old house, so affected by the restart, the time of the old house changed.
This time is neither more nor less, it is exactly the time span for Yang Jian to restart;
Twenty-five minutes.
Therefore, although the time is now 12:25, if the time affected by the restart of the ancient house is included;
The time in the old house should be twelve o'clock now.
Regarding this point, Li Yue and Yang Jian looked at each other and made a tacit understanding not to explain to everyone.
Because it's too troublesome.
If we really want to solve it, we need to explain everything that happened during the funeral. There is not so much time to explain and explain deliberately now.
After everyone heard what Li Yue and Yang Jian said, they were puzzled.
But after seeing that the two of them had no intention of explaining, they didn't dwell on this issue.
Not everything needs to be investigated.
As long as they can be sure that the person entering the old house through the back door is the recipient they are waiting for, that's fine.
