"This is what I'm going to ask you," Pei Xiao said seriously: "I went back from get off work the next morning and found that the building manager had changed to a young man with long hair. The other residents didn't react at all. I When I asked where you were, the new building manager just gave me a look but didn’t reply."
Shi Ying's first reaction to the long-haired man was Ji Ansi, but wasn't he in the cafeteria? She asked, "Have you asked the new building manager's name?"
Pei Xiao shook his head: "No. I see that the new building manager basically doesn't communicate with the residents. Anyone who has anything needs to go to him. He comes out very quickly. Apart from not being able to go out during the day, I have rarely seen him in the building at night."
Shi Ying: "Okay..."
The two walked in silence for a while. Shi Ying turned around and was about to speak, and found that Pei Xiao was also about to speak. "Officer Pei, let's talk first." Shi Ying nodded slightly and signaled Pei Xiao to speak first.
"How many times have you entered a copy like this?" Pei Xiao looked at Shi Ying's expression seriously and unconsciously used a professional look.
Shi Ying was a little confused whether to tell the truth or not. After seeing his expression, she knew that if she lied, she would definitely be seen through. She thought about it and said, "I have died five times and entered dungeons five times." She is here now.
She had died five times in this timeline, and she had indeed entered five dungeons in total, but she did not directly say whether there was any connection between the two, leaving it to Pei Xiao to experience it himself.
Pei Xiao frowned. Are the conditions for her to enter the dungeon so harsh? She has to die once. He then asked: "Can you tell me the contents in detail?"
Shi Ying nodded, disrupted the order of the copies, and said vaguely: "There are exhibition halls, hospitals, amusement parks, then being a host, and then being a building manager. We met when I was a building manager."
"Our systems are different, and the matching dungeons should be different. This may be just a coincidence, and even if we enter the same dungeon, our respective roles and tasks are different, so there is not much reference value." Shi Ying tried.
Muddle through.
Pei Xiao didn't go into details and nodded and said: "It doesn't matter. If you encounter it in the future, you can see if there is a pattern. I remember you talked about the speed of time. You said that after my five days came out, it would be ten minutes, but I
I found that the flow of time between us should be different."
Shi Ying said "Huh?", but didn't expect that there was a difference. He asked: "What does yours look like? It shouldn't be one-to-one, otherwise you wouldn't have come out by now."
Pei Xiao: "According to my colleagues, I probably just fell into a daze while listening to his report. I didn't miss more than five words."
Shi Ying: "Isn't that less than a second?"
Pei Xiao nodded.
Shi Ying was envious. If her copy were like this, then she wouldn't have been taken away and had her hands chopped off in the park. At least she would be conscious enough to run, scream, and call people.
"Then did you feel hungry after you came out? Are you hungry after not eating anything for five days?" Shi Ying thought of Pei Xiao's living conditions. He couldn't smoke incense and had no other food. He was really hungry for five days.
God, I don’t know how he endured it.
Pei Xiao shook his head: "No, I just came out with injuries. Fortunately, everyone was busy and no one noticed, otherwise it would be difficult to explain."
The two chatted all the way, and the night wind became colder. Shi Ying took out her mobile phone and looked at the time, and said, "It's almost eleven o'clock. Officer Pei, please go back and rest early. My personal safety depends on you."
Solving the case."
Pei Xiao didn't seem to expect that the two of them would chat for so long. It seemed that it was already so late without even saying a few words. There were not many people left in the square. He put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker and said to Shi Ying: "
Let's go, I'll take you back to the hotel." We had some clues about the case, but we couldn't tell her yet. Pei Xiao didn't say much, and the two of them walked downstairs of the hotel in silence.
Shi Ying waved goodbye to Pei Xiao: "Officer Pei, thank you for your hard work. Go back and rest early."
Pei Xiao nodded, put his hands in his pockets and watched her enter the lobby, then turned around and went home.
After spending a few days doing nothing in the hotel, Yingying didn't dress up during the weekend. She wore everyday clothes, took an umbrella, and went to the convention and exhibition center.
The opening ceremony was still being held on the stage, and Zhang Qing was also sitting in his old seat. Shi Ying was also ready to go in and take a look around to see how the exhibition hall was different from last time.
Shi Ying, who was wearing casual clothes, was not stopped by the security guard and told not to use a tripod. She entered the door smoothly. The contents of the exhibits in front of her were no different from the last time. Shi Ying did not take a closer look, but walked quickly to the place where she was last time.
Out the utility room door.
There is no back half of the exhibition hall. The utility room, excluding a few small rooms with doors, is filled with partition walls. The continuous partition walls are exactly the same as when she came out last time.
It seemed that there was no dungeon this time. Shi Ying breathed a sigh of relief. There seemed to be no point in trying the same dungeon again. Moreover, she had already taken out the gold and white jade ring. Could it be that the dungeon could give her the same ring a second time?
After confirming that there were no copies, Shi Ying walked forward from the second half of the exhibition hall, admiring the artworks on display as she walked. Last time, she was afraid that Umbrella would fall in love with these and make her buy them on the spot, so she did not take a closer look. This time, she knew that Umbrella only likes
Once the copy is produced, I feel relieved and ready to appreciate it.
Apart from the outrageous price tags, these works of art are really beautiful.
Shi Ying looked at each item carefully and took photos when she met someone she liked very much, so she didn't leave the exhibition hall until Zhang Qing sent her a message.
Zhang Qing still asked Shi Ying to go to the restaurant to wait for her first, saying that she would be there soon. Shi Ying replied "Okay", then quickly looked at the rest of the exhibits, went to the restaurant, ordered drinks, and waited for Zhang Qing.
This time there was no ring for the opening ceremony. After Zhang Qing came, he first commented on the layout of the opening ceremony. After the dishes were served, he chatted with Shi Ying about the taste of the dishes. After chatting, he got to the main topic of last time: "Little
After Yu returned to China some time ago, he always disliked the bad climate at home..."
Listening to these words now, Shi Ying felt that it was not impossible. She was not interested in going on a blind date, but it was really good to go to the beach to bask in the sun to change her mood.
"... Then let him take you out to sea for fishing, barbecue on the beach, etc."
But let's forget it with Ren Yu. The worst thing is that they will do their own thing after this. I don't think Ren Yu will file a complaint against Zhang Qing because of this. He must also wish that he stayed away from him.
Shi Ying nodded and said, "I just happened to have a plan to go to the beach. Ren Yu is so sensible and won't cause trouble, but if I go there, I won't cause any trouble to him..."
"No, no, Yingying, when are you planning to go there? How about next week? I'll book a flight for you and ask Xiaoyu to pick you up. I'll make sure that the place is properly arranged for you." Zhang Qing agreed when he saw Shiying.
When I got down, I was immediately overjoyed. I took out my phone and started looking at the calendar.
Shi Ying thought for a moment, maybe next week, Shi's father didn't know when the yard would be tidied up, and Pei Xiao didn't know when the case would be solved, so it would be safer for her to move to another place.
So she nodded and said to Zhang Qing: "Then we'll have to trouble Aunt Zhang."
Zhang Qing was as happy as if his son had already married, and said with a smile: "If the family has any trouble, let me tell you..."
