After closing the doors and windows tightly and making sure that he was the only one in the room, Cheng Lin went to take a hot bath first, then dressed neatly, came to the window and took out his mobile phone.
Open the hidden desktop and the icon of the deduction program will pop into view.
After taking a deep breath, he clicked on the icon.
It is still the familiar opening delay, cutscenes, dynamic universe and starry sky, and a dry well or deep pool that is as deep as the bottom. Because of the experience last time, Cheng Lin carefully stared at the starry sky background this time.
For a while.
"It's really different."
He found that the starry sky background was different from last time.
"Could it be said that every deduction is different? Does this starry sky refer to the space where the deduction takes place? Does it represent the world? Time? Or something else?"
Cheng Lin thought for a moment, but had no clue, so he simply gave up.
[At every moment, there are a million possibilities for the direction of civilization]
After glancing at this line of small print, he moved his eyes habitually to the "History Library" and began to review it.
There are currently a total of five deductions, which exist quietly on the screen in the form of gray cards. Cheng Lin looked at them and suddenly felt a little emotional. He did not have the habit of keeping a diary, but at this moment, seeing these cards, it was as if he was reading about his recent past.
It's like a diary for the past two months. Every time my eyes fall on a chapter, relevant memories emerge in my mind.
"The world has been destroyed five times in my hands. I'm really ashamed to say that..."
Cheng Lin observed silence for a few seconds, and then his heart surged.
After more than a week of rest, he has adjusted his condition. At this moment, he feels that he is in very good condition.
"Turn on."
Without any hesitation, he clicked the deduction button.
Then……
Familiar vibrations, white light filling the field of vision, the whole person is drifting in the ocean of light, like a lonely boat in the sea, not knowing where to go.
[Start to deduce the direction of civilization in this world...]
[Deduction in progress...]
[Get Chapter: Frozen Earth (Cave)]
[The chapter will open in 10 seconds... 10, 9, 8...]
…
Everything stops.
Cheng Lin opened his eyes and felt the unique silence in the deduction.
He also entered a state of concentration and calmness. Every deduction was like opening a new game for him, and in the game, Cheng Lin would often naturally enter a God-like perspective of observing, and put himself into the game.
Separate yourself from the world of deduction.
This can help him face any changes with a calmer mind.
[After many days, you started a new deduction again]
[You find that the window becomes a little blurry, that is because time is passing briefly]
Cheng Lin looked at the window calmly and found that it seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and the scenery outside became hazy.
Soon, the mist dissipated, and Cheng Lin walked over silently, lying in front of the window and looking out.
Then he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"This is where?"
[You lie in front of the window and look at the city outside. It is a bustling modern city, with buildings, high-rise buildings, streets, vehicles... everything is available, but this city is very different from the style you are familiar with. It seems to be abroad, but where is it specific?
, but you can’t figure it out for a while]
Outside the window.
The sky is a little gloomy, it should be daytime, and the time is probably winter.
Cheng Lin is facing a wide street. There are white buildings on both sides of the street. It probably snowed not long ago. The red and blue roofs of those buildings are covered with snow-white. There is still frost on the balcony that has not been wiped clean. The main road
After cleaning, like a dark ribbon, the billboards on the street were printed with characters and symbols that were very unfamiliar to Cheng Lin, but they looked familiar. There were also some white men and women wearing various winter clothes walking on the street.
"Abroad? Europe? Or the Commonwealth?"
Cheng Lin was wondering, but seeing that the billboard was not in English, he could probably exclude the Federation and England.
The greater possibility is a certain country in Europe.
[You have some guesses in your mind. The unfamiliar city makes you feel a little uncomfortable. You stare at the words in confusion. After a moment, you realize that they are in French]
The information in my mind is always so thoughtful.
Cheng Lin leaned gently on the window sill, with a hint of understanding in his eyes.
French.
I have indeed arrived in Europe, but I don’t know how far time has passed.
This was his first time abroad. He had no passport, no visa, nothing. He just quietly appeared in the corner of a certain French city.
"This is much more comfortable than joining a tour group."
Cheng Lin Youran thought, and he was not in a hurry after having many deduction experiences.
"Do I need to go out now?" he asked.
There was no answer in my mind.
Cheng Lin thought for a while and was about to go out for a look, but he suddenly realized that he was still wearing summer clothes. When traveling, there were no winter clothes in the room or in the initial space, which was a bit troublesome.
As a second-level peak practitioner, he can naturally withstand the winter, but it would be too weird to go out dressed like this.
"Just be weird. No one here knows me anyway. Let's go out and find some clothes first."
Having made up his mind, Cheng Lin turned on the door handle and pushed out the door. Suddenly, the cold winter air outside the window hit his face with an exotic atmosphere, accompanied by countless thin and mixed sounds.
Stepping into the world from the silent safe house is like returning from the outside world. The sound of car horns, people's conversations, and the busy and fragmented sounds of objects colliding in nearby buildings all converge into a sound wave that attracts Cheng Lin.
submerged.
Cheng Lin squinted his eyes with some enjoyment. This was an experience that no real game could give him. With all his senses, he felt like he was in the real world, or in other words, this was the real world.
"Ding dong dong dong~"
A string of melodious wind chimes rang in his ears. Cheng Lin turned around and saw a string of colorful and delicate wind chimes hanging above his head outside the door. At this moment, he opened the door and made a sweet sound.
He looked at the door he pushed open in his hand and found that the appearance of the door had also changed.
He let go of his hand, turned around, and found that behind him was not a safe house, but a gift shop.
The transparent semi-floor-to-ceiling glass windows clearly present the indoor scenery, and exquisite gift boxes are quietly placed in those glass cupboards with soft lighting.
At the counter, a girl wearing a cute woolen hat, who seemed to be a waiter, was smiling and skillfully wrapping a box of gifts, and then handed it to the male customer in front of her.
Gift shop? How did the safe house become a gift shop?
Cheng Lin was a little surprised. He took a few tentative steps forward and saw the image of a translucent safe house emerging from the gift shop building.
"Well, it turns out that...the safe house and the gift shop overlap."
Cheng Lin suddenly realized that the two spaces were stacked together, and the doors were also stacked together. This gave others the impression that he was a customer walking out of the gift shop.
"The program is really considerate." Cheng Lin smiled.
At this time, people walking nearby on the street had already noticed this strange oriental boy standing outside the shop in winter, but wearing summer clothes.
"They were probably wondering if I was a psychopath."
Cheng Lin was a little helpless, wondering where to find a winter coat to wear. At this time, the pleasant sound of wind chimes sounded behind him again.
"Hello, could you please give way?"
A man's voice sounded.
What he spoke was obviously French, but it was automatically translated into Chinese by the program, and he even had a slight local accent, which made Cheng Lin very interesting.
Turning around, Cheng Lin saw the other person clearly. He was a white man with a figure similar to his own. He was probably a little older than him. He was wearing a black, well-tailored thickened windbreaker. He was dressed very delicately, like a young man in a movie.
gentleman.
There was also a beautifully wrapped gift box in his hand, which was the customer who just shopped in the store.
The white man looked at the Asian man in front of him with a strange look, and Cheng Lin also looked at the other man's clothes with interest.
"The sizes should be about the same." Cheng Lin muttered.
"What did you say?" the white man was stunned for a moment.
"It's nothing, I'm sorry."
Cheng Lin smiled and made way for the other party. Then he suddenly remembered something, patted the other party on the shoulder and asked, "Excuse me, which city is this? What date is it now?"
The white man wanted to break free and tried, but unexpectedly found that the hand on his shoulder was so strong.
He could only turn around, thinking that he was so unlucky that he met a mentally ill person...
After thinking about it, he spread his hands and said in a helpless tone: "Of course this is Paris. Are you asking about the time? Oh, didn't you see the gift in my hand? Today is February 14th, Valentine's Day!"
Cheng Lin was startled.
Paris France?
Is today...Valentine's Day?
…
ps: Happy holidays everyone (if you celebrate the holidays)...
