The wind was no longer as calm and gentle as before, causing the curtains at the eaves to rustle.
The slightly smaller saplings bent over, almost to the point of breaking...
The sound of a wrinkled cigarette box being opened sounded.
The man looked down at the empty cigarette case and couldn't help but frown a little.
Well, I'm done.
Just a pack of cigarettes couldn't sustain him for half a day.
What's more, he still has a bad habit of only half-smoking...
Glancing at the cigarette butts on the ground that had been extinguished before, he hesitated whether he should pick up a few or two and use them to make ends meet.
But at this time.
An Yuan felt something, and her expression froze slightly...
He no longer paid attention to the extinguished cigarette butts on the ground, but returned to the window in five steps and looked up at the sky.
"What's wrong?"
A gentle voice came from the corner of the room.
She didn't care at all about the pure white and clean dress she was wearing, and sat on the floor regardless of the mess.
An Yue's actions made her feel strange, so she asked like this.
"The expansion speed of the parallel instrument seems to have slowed down a lot..."
An Zhi's expression became serious.
He looked somewhere in the sky and narrowed his eyes.
"A lot slower?"
Sometimes the tone of voice rose a little higher.
But she still didn't make any move, and still sat quietly in the corner of the room.
After all, for her...
Whether the parallel instrument can be shut down before twelve o'clock tonight has nothing to do with her.
If it's closed, just stay here.
Yuma believes that as long as there is a place where [Chino] exists, it won't be a big deal even if he doesn't go out.
And if it wasn't closed, she would follow [Qianye] out...
No matter what the real world is.
She also felt it didn't matter much.
Just like in "Mom's World", when she met Xixi, she stated her purpose - she came only for [Qianye].
"No, it shouldn't be like this."
"Did someone have a hand in it?"
The opposite of.
An only is the person who values the parallel instrument most.
He looked at the sky and murmured to himself in an unbelievable tone...
"Although it is the last day now, no one knows about the parallel instrument, so naturally they will not react in any way."
"Even if the expansion speed of the parallel instrument will slow down due to some accidents, it will not slow down to this extent..."
The cold wind outside the window made An feel sore.
He hesitated for a moment, but decided to go out and take a look.
But when he just turned around, someone called out to him, causing him to pause as he was about to step out of the room.
"it's useless."
"There are not many people who know about the parallel instrument. From the looks of it, Su Zao is the one who is willing to do it."
"But you have to understand that Su Zao alone cannot achieve this level..."
What Youjian said was very clear.
There's nothing An Ji doesn't understand.
What the other party meant was that besides Su Zao, there was someone else helping...
"So, I can't just look at it."
An Ji didn't look back. After leaving these words, he opened the door and left.
The cool breeze was blowing through the street, and his thin figure stood in it as if he was about to be blown away.
Youjian just looked indifferently at the direction An Zhi was leaving.
He said something loud enough that he could hear it.
"up to you......"
...
A strange combination of circumstances.
Chen Xiaowei and Lin Yuan unexpectedly bumped into each other a few days ago.
For this friend who was somewhat familiar, but not too familiar, both of them were wary in their hearts.
Disaster strikes.
Trust is the weakest thing...
Chen Xiaowei herself is not a good person. When she first met Qianye, she even thought of killing Qianye because she felt that Qianye was in danger to her.
No, I can’t say it happened...
Chen Xiaowei made a real plan and took action, but it was a pity that it did not succeed.
Therefore, Lin Yuan would not give him much good looks.
And it is worth mentioning that.
Because Lin Yuan was being targeted for bringing a lot of supplies, he was robbed, beaten, and then took the opportunity to sneak out...
This led to when I met Chen Xiaowei.
He looked very embarrassed.
If conditions didn't allow it, he would probably have to call an ambulance to carry him away on a stretcher.
um, yes.
Lin Yuan almost climbed up step by step and met Chen Xiaowei...
When Chen Xiaowei saw Lin Yuan like this, her vigilance dropped a lot.
There was no way to deal with Lin Yuan immediately.
This is the last day.
Lin Yuandu was still lying on the bed, unable to even stand up...
Chen Xiaowei is in pretty good condition. She has the food Qianye left behind at that time, and even though she felt something was wrong at first, she has always been very economical, and now she still has enough left over for a few days.
"Hey, can you give me some food? I've been eating grass roots every day and I feel like I can't hold on anymore..."
Lin Yuan turned his head with great effort and reluctantly said weakly to Chen Xiaowei.
"It's fine if I don't kill you. Why do you still have such a request?"
Chen Xiaowei frowned slightly and answered the other party unhappily.
This guy's life and death has nothing to do with her.
During this period of time, she was able to pull some grass roots for the other party to cook, which was considered a great kindness...
"If I die here, I will be an eyesore to you."
Lin Yuan did not give up, still eager.
"None of my business."
Chen Xiaowei shook it off and immediately refused to talk to the other party.
Even though Lin Yuan, who was lying on the bed, was still mumbling a lot of nonsense, she ignored it all and pretended not to hear it.
It seems a little different outside today than before...
Chen Xiaowei noticed this.
She stepped towards the dilapidated wooden door, pushed the wooden door open a little, and peeked out of the gap.
Since the advent of the parallelometer, the sky has always been dark.
But no matter what, it has not reached the point where it is today...
It's like a scene that is about to sink into darkness, and the sense of deathly silence everywhere is enough to completely envelope people, making them feel a little uncomfortable.
Chen Xiaowei looked at it for a long time.
Gradually, in the dark alleys of the town, I caught a figure slowly approaching...
She wasn't careless.
I have no interest in knowing who that figure could be.
In today's town where there are almost no friends or foes, the presence of other people is undoubtedly a bad thing.
Taking out the pistol she got before arriving at the cabin from behind, Chen Xiaowei raised her attention and looked at the figure without any slack...
It is also unclear whether the other party knew that he had been discovered.
After Chen Xiaowei took out the pistol, the figure stood silently in the distance with no intention of getting closer.
"what's the situation?"
Holding the pistol, Chen Xiaowei muttered.
But before she could think about it, a sudden clang suddenly sounded next to her!
This shocked Chen Xiaowei.
When she looked down at the source of the sound, she saw a smashed glass bottle...
And among the messy glass shards.
Lying quietly is a piece of white paper tied into a roll...
She was stunned for a moment, but Chen Xiaowei then raised her head and looked at the location of the black shadow.
only......
When she looked up, she found that the black shadow had long since disappeared without a trace. Except for the broken glass bottle, it seemed that nothing had happened.
"Did that guy throw it over?"
Chen Xiaowei was puzzled.
While she focused on the scene outside the door, always paying attention to whether the other party would suddenly appear somewhere, she slowly squatted down and picked up the roll paper among the glass fragments...
The touch of her fingertips told her that this was just an ordinary piece of white paper.
Think about it for a moment.
Chen Xiaowei pulled off the rubber band binding the paper, and then unfolded the white paper.
There are a lot of beautiful words written on it.
The content is as follows:
When you read this content, you may guess who I am, or you may have doubts about my identity...
But no matter what, please read on patiently.
I have attached all the explanations you want below. After reading what is written above, you will know...
Long story short.
You must have seen the big disk in the sky, and also noticed that it grew from the size of a cloud at the beginning to the shape it is now with no edges visible.
That thing is not a simple thing.
Nor are they items produced in this world...
What I want to tell you is that today will be your only chance to leave this world. The thirty-day rules of the invitation meeting were superimposed for some reason, which caused everyone's calculations to be wrong.
I can’t go into the specific logic here. The size of the paper is not enough to support me writing a lot of nonsense...
Overall,
At twelve o'clock tonight, the world of the invitation party will open the door to reality, and you who are still alive at that time will be able to walk out of this door.
But the problem is that thing in the sky, that disk will play a role in cutting off the connection between the two worlds. It will be the only thing that prevents you from leaving...
The disk grows by absorbing the resentment of the dead. Since there are not many people alive in the town now, it has grown to an almost complete state.
Don't worry, I'm not asking you to do anything too extreme...
I just want you to be alive and well before twelve o'clock today, and I want the man you are with to be alive and well, and never die in any accident.
The resentment that Yuanpan has absorbed is now close to the edge. At this time, even if only one or two people die, it may lead to the completion of Yuanpan's growth and block everyone in this world...
I placed some food in the southeast corner outside your house.
That can be regarded as the sincerity shown by coming to you on my behalf...
In order to ensure that the man in your house will not starve to death, and because you may think that I have poisoned the food and refuse to eat it, and that I am trying to harm you.
You can give the man that food to eat.
Anyway, you don’t care much about his life or death...
I don't have any requirements.
I just hope you can live well until twelve o'clock today.
While protecting yourself.
I also hope you don’t put your hands on other people for some reason…
As I said above, even if one or two people die at this time, it is very likely that the world will be directly blocked, and no one will be able to escape from this world.
so,
Even if it's just for yourself.
Please also don’t have the possibility of taking human life...
...
Okay, let's talk about this place.
You may think that all this is nonsense, and you may think that what I said above is all fabricated to deceive you, and then used to achieve some unknown purpose.
After thinking about it, I decided to use the rest of this piece of paper to tell you what my real purpose is, so that you don't have to waste your time guessing...
Chino.
You know this person.
In a way, he is my brother and the only person I consider important in this world.
A little more than ten days ago, Qianye had an accident. He was possessed by a terrible thing, and then became what he is now...
I think you know him.
You should know that he is completely different from before.
In order to trap Qianye in this world at this time, an idiot named An Zhi created the disk in the sky.
how to say......
I don't want my brother to be trapped here.
Even now, his body has been taken away.
But I think he will return to normal one day, and I don’t want him to be trapped in this place forever...
This is my simplest and most direct purpose.
Having said so much, you may think that I am lying to you.
After all, I repeatedly emphasized that I was not lying, which in itself is very illogical.
Or maybe you are a little willing to believe what I say, but you think Qianye and other things have nothing to do with you at all, so you will not follow the advice I give you for my purpose...
only,
You still have to think clearly.
When Yuanpan completely seals the world, not only my brother but everyone else will be unable to leave this world, including you naturally.
Believe it or not, it depends on your own thoughts.
Anyway, gambling with one's own life is not something a smart person would do...
Besides, what I need you to do is very simple.
All you need is that you and the man next to you survive until twelve o'clock, and don't kill each other for some reason during this period.
This is of no benefit to you.
At least I think so.
——Qian Xixi

Read the entire content.
The entire page is covered with thick fonts.
But maybe it’s because the author who wrote this content is in a hurry, so although the font of the whole article looks beautiful, there are still traces of hastily written...
I would say it's verbose, but it's actually not that verbose.
After all, if you want to gain the trust of a stranger, this thing seems not enough. It just helps Chen Xiaowei sort out all the pros and cons.
To say it's not verbose, it's a bit like Aunt Wang's foot wrap. She repeats one thing over and over again, as if she's afraid that Chen Xiaowei won't notice.
certainly,
Having said that, the content of this article is quite passable.
At least Chen Xiaowei understood what it meant...
When her eyes fell on the name "Qianye", Chen Xiaowei's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
That weirdo.
It has indeed become what it said on paper, and now it feels extremely strange...
"Brother...the person who wrote the letter is Qianye's sister?"
Chen Xiaowei's thumb happened to press Qian Xixi's name. She couldn't help but use some strength to slowly rub the name.
"Does this guy have a sister?"
she thought.
But I can't think of a reason...
Chen Xiaowei would naturally feel confused after receiving such a letter with so much information.
Looking at the disk in the sky.
She didn't know whether that thing would cut off the connection between reality and the world of the invitational party, as the letter said...
During this period of hiding.
It seems that apart from surviving until now, Chen Xiaowei feels like a fool who knows nothing.
