After hanging up the call with Rabbit, Wang Xu took a taxi and went straight to Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.
When it comes to Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, many people may not know much about it, but when it comes to the Empire State Building standing here, there are very few people who don't know about it.
Wang Xu's purpose of coming here is certainly not the same as tourists, who want to take the elevator up and overlook the entire New York.
He came to Fifth Avenue for an inconspicuous electronics store on Fifth Avenue.
“New Era Electrical Appliances Store!”
Wang Xu stood outside the electrical appliance store with a slight smile on his face.
This is an inconspicuous electrical appliance store, mainly selling televisions, washing machines, VD machines, speakers, and pirated CDs.
But in this electrical appliance store, there is a unique thing, and that is the time converter.
Men in Black 3, the interstellar murderer Boris, nicknamed Beast, escaped from the heavy prison on the moon, stole the time turner, went back in time, and killed the K agent who arrested him before he was arrested, thus triggering
Time and space are in chaos.
Now is the time for Men in Black, and the plot of reversing time has not yet appeared. Except for Boris, who is imprisoned on the moon, only two people know that there is a time turner on the earth.
These two people, one is the owner of the time turner, the interstellar thief Jeffrey, and the other is Jeffrey's son Dali.
Needless to say, Boris is still imprisoned in a lunar prison.
Jeffrey was also imprisoned for theft again due to occupational diseases, and became Boris's cellmate in prison.
For now, the only person who knows about the time turner is Jeffrey's son.
Wang Xu's request is simple: find this person, take the time turner, and add a heavyweight trump card to himself.
"Welcome, take what you want and come to my place to pay later." Wang Xu opened the door and walked in, and saw a fat man playing games. This person was Jeffrey's son Dali.
Dali looked to be in his twenties. He was holding a controller and playing a level-breaking game called Metal Slug. He didn't even look up when Wang Xu arrived.
Wang Xu didn't say anything, walked to his side and looked at the game screen.
Dali is very talented in playing games. He controls the villain in the picture and kills everyone on the battlefield. He even passes several levels without dying once.
Half an hour later, Dali felt Wang Xu was still looking at him, pressed the pause button, and said, "Want to play together?"
"Okay!" Wang Xu took the controller and watched Dali change the game mode to two-player mode.
The two start in a small town. There are countless enemy soldiers in the town. Killing the enemies will reveal weapons and equipment.
Wang Xu's skills were far inferior to Dali. He knelt down four times in three minutes, and even if he picked up a good gun, he would die in minutes.
When he finally met the boss, Wang Xu was just a target, dealing very little damage, which made Dali sigh again and again.
"You probably haven't played this game before, but it doesn't matter. We can start over from the beginning. After you get familiar with it a few more times, you will know what enemies will appear at what time and where." Wang Xu knelt down several times, but there was no resurrection.
After the opportunity, Dali restarted the game.
Wang Xu nodded slightly, looked at the restarted game screen, and asked: "The game can be restarted and time goes back to the starting point again and again. Can life be OK?"
"Of course not, you are overthinking!" Dali pressed the start button and entered the game again.
Wang Xu put down the controller and looked at Dali, who was controlling the character and killing everyone, and whispered: "I think it's okay."
"Well!!!"
Dali's hand shook, and the character in the game died on the spot. This was the first time he died.
But compared to the game, he cared more about Wang Xu's origin, raised his head and asked: "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that I'm here, and I won't come back empty-handed."
Wang Xu gently stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Dali, if you give me the time converter, I will be very happy."
Dali was silent for a moment and asked, "What if I don't agree?"
"Then I will be unhappy. If I am unhappy, you will be unhappy. I believe you will want to be happy instead of unhappy." Wang Xu was still smiling, but his smile was a little cold.
The time turner is a treasure that he is determined to get. In order to get this thing, he doesn't mind using some extraordinary means.
Not to mention Dali, not even K, was standing in the way. No one could affect his determination.
"Okay, I'll get it for you right now. We have a very pleasant relationship, how could I refuse!" Dali smiled reluctantly, got up and walked towards the counter.
Soon, Dali took out a silver box from under the counter and asked carefully: "If I give it to you, you won't hurt me, right?"
"Of course not. I'm not a murderer. I just need to erase your memory."
As Wang Xu gave a positive answer, Dali breathed a sigh of relief and handed over the box in his hand.
Wang Xu opened the box and saw something as big as a palm and shaped like a clock.
On this thing, there are numbers representing the year and month, as well as buttons representing controls.
From the outside, you would like to associate this thing with a space-time converter, but in fact this is a space-time converter.
"This thing was stolen from a museum by my father. It comes from the lost Eglas civilization. It is said that the Eglas civilization is very powerful. In their eyes, other civilizations are just like humans looking at monkeys. They are not attracted by them at all.
Treated as companions. One day, the Eglas civilization suddenly disappeared, and everything about them disappeared from the books and memories as if it had been erased.
This existence and disappearance are immeasurable. It was not until accidentally that someone discovered a special ruins and then learned again that there was a civilization called Eglas in this universe. And the clues left by the Eglas civilization to us are this time
Converter, and a word of warning.”
Dali pointed to the box and said softly: "When you reverse time, it means that the shield disappears and you send a signal for the expedition. In the past, modern times, and the future, all civilizations that are looking forward to the expedition and are ready for the expedition,
They will all receive your signal, and they will snipe you desperately, because there is only one transcendent person. Sorry for the latecomers, the time turner is our greatest treasure, we can't bear it to be forgotten, forgive our selfishness,
It’s the only thing that proves we existed.”
"Shield, expedition, transcendent, what does this mean?" Wang Xu stroked the time turner, not understanding what it meant at all.
Dali shrugged. He didn't know what this sentence meant. He shook his head and said, "No one knows. My father used it and went back in time to save my mother who was supposed to be dead. Nothing strange happened.
Maybe it's just a hoax, like the Pharaoh's Curse. If you believe in the Pharaoh's Curse, be careful with it, and if you don't, feel free to try it."
Wang Xu put the time turner back into the box and said after a moment of silence: "I believe it."
Wang Xu couldn't help but believe it. In the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, he heard Poseidon's whispers, which made him understand that gods really exist. The difference lies in whether you have come into contact with them.
Poseidon is real, how could the Pharaoh's curse be fake?
The warning left by the Eglas civilization must have some meaning, and it is not as simple as bluffing people.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have deliberately left ruins and this thing behind when the entire civilization had been wiped out. What they did was definitely not for fun.
"I only know so much. It's up to you to use this thing or not. But I think that reversing time is also a way out when there is no choice. After all, the worst outcome is death. Maybe you can use it like my father.
Nothing happened after that." Dali didn't quite believe the warning about the time turner, because his father had used it and nothing bad had happened.
Wang Xu smiled noncommittally, as Dali said, when there is no choice, reversing time is also an option.
Obtaining the time turner is equivalent to having an extra trump card. He will not use this thing casually. If he uses it, it means that the situation is out of control and it has reached the point where he will die if he doesn't use it.
"Thank you for your cooperation, we still have the last step to do!"
Wang Xu put on his sunglasses, took out the memory eraser, set the time to an hour ago, and pressed the button on Dali.
A burst of red light flashed, and a look of confusion appeared in Dali's eyes.
Wang Xu took off his sunglasses and put them in his pocket, and said: "An hour ago, you tried to use the time turner, but found that the thing was broken. In a rage, you smashed it into pieces and threw it to a sanitation worker who collected garbage.
Work. Next, you have been playing games, having fun, repeating it over and over again."
After saying this, Wang Xu took the time converter and left.
Half a minute later, the confusion in Dali's eyes disappeared, he picked up the controller and started playing the game again, as if nothing just happened.
But in his memory, the time turner no longer existed. He smashed the thing to pieces with a sledgehammer and threw it to a sanitation worker in yellow clothes.
