Chapter 137 Subtle Delay
"Time is running out, you can't stay here any longer, get out quickly -"
But the old man obviously had no intention of talking to Yuan Mengmeng anymore, and regardless of what she saw later, he grabbed her hand and led her out the door.
"Wait a minute? We're going out now, don't you have anything else to say... By the way, where is this place..."
"You will naturally understand after you get out." The old man said. After leaving this room, there is a garage outside. Find the exit of the garage and go up. After that, you will be in a place you are familiar with. You can return to the place where you should be:
"Also during this process, remember to keep repeating the three things I just told you in your mind. You must deepen their impression in your mind. Do you understand?"
"...I know." Seeing that the other party issued an eviction order and even took the initiative to open the door, the orange light of the garage shone in outside the door. Although Yuan Mengmeng was still full of questions, she could not continue at this moment.
said.
But before leaving, there was still a big stone in her heart that could not fall, so just before the other party closed the door, she finally turned around and said softly:
"Zhang Ke...will be fine...right?"
"..."
When he heard this question, the old man fell silent. After a moment, he whispered in a voice that was difficult for him to hear clearly:
"Believe in him, and believe in yourself."
Then, the door was closed heavily.
It seems that there is nothing more that can be asked—
Yuan Mengmeng shook her head, then straightened her back and groped in the garage to find a way to lift the weight back to the ground.
There were really too many puzzles and incomprehensions in her heart, coupled with the three things that the old man had told her not to forget before, as well as this weird experience after this afternoon, they all made her feel confused and her thoughts were racing.
Now she just wants to find a familiar and trustworthy person to sit down and discuss and reason about all this and what happened, and the best candidate for that person is undoubtedly Zhang Ke.
But……
Looking at the message "No signal here" on the phone screen, Yuan Mengmeng knew that she would not be able to contact him until at least she returned to the ground.
——Of course, this is the most ideal situation. If you still can’t get in touch like in the afternoon, then...
Not daring to think too much about this terrible thing, Yuan Mengmeng could only force her mind to review the three last things the old man told her before subconsciously stepping onto the ground.
The time on the phone was 11:30 at night, but the surrounding environment was not unfamiliar at all.
"This is... Zhang Ke's community? Jixiang Community??" Yuan Mengmeng looked back at the garage she just walked out of in disbelief, "Why is it so close to his home?"
When she thought that the other party was probably at home a few hundred meters away, Yuan Mengmeng suddenly became excited and rushed in that direction at a quick trot.
Then, I saw silver air waves.
"How is this going?"
All the strength was taken away from the limbs at the first moment, and then even the five senses were quickly deprived in a few seconds. Only her soul struggled to get up from the ground. Yuan Mengmeng could not hold on for more than half a minute. Her self-consciousness
He fell completely into the abyss of darkness and could not wake up.
I always feel that this is not the first time I feel like this——
However, at the end of the abyss, there seemed to be three different dots that were related to each other - that was her last thought.
[The verification test is completed, the experimental subject is still in the reincarnation clamp, adapting well, and no possibility of escape has been found]
[Is that so? But why were the previous observation results so abnormal, and almost overturned the conditions for reincarnation?]
[Maybe it’s just a deviation within the normal range. Didn’t the professor say that the mechanism is not completely perfect? There will always be more or less bugs, so adjustments and aftermath are needed. He himself took action today]
[Forget it, just put him back to his original position, no need to worry about it anymore]
【OK】
"ah--"
Waking up again in a familiar room and familiar environment, Zhang Ke felt as if he was in another world.
"I'm back - huh? Sure enough, I didn't wake up in the office, but in Xu Xiaoli's room?"
Regarding the female corpse next to him, Zhang Ke finally entered a state of being completely unhurried, not afraid or vomiting, and even began to appreciate the posture of the woman lying down.
I don't know why, but there is still an inexplicable feeling of nostalgia in my heart. It always feels like I haven't seen her for a long time... Ah, this is it.
"Ah, I feel like I have forgotten something?" Zhang Ke touched his heavy head. He vaguely remembered that he had repeated several reincarnations before to deal with the murderer, but for some reason, this memory became a bit fuzzy and distant.
Already.
It was as if I had experienced many different reincarnations somewhere after that - but in my memory, nothing like this happened.
What happened? Did he suffer from some kind of intermittent amnesia again? Zhang Ke sat there and thought for a while but had no answer. Then there was a knock on the door outside - ah, it was the thin man next door again.
.
Just like he was sent away in every previous reincarnation, Zhang Ke dragged his somewhat heavy body and began to change clothes, clean the blood stains, and prepare to go out and sneak back home quietly, waiting for Yuan Mengmeng to kill as scheduled.
But this time, things seemed to have noticed some subtle changes.
"Strange-why hasn't she called yet?"
Zhang Ke, who was sitting at home, waiting for Yuan Mengmeng to call and cry like he always did in every reincarnation, found that something had changed this time.
Yuan Mengmeng never sent a text message, let alone a phone call.
Should I fight it myself? But will this lead to more uncontrollable situations?
Zhang Ke felt a little confused and uneasy, but at this moment, a familiar phone number came as expected. When he answered the call, it turned out to be Yuan Mengmeng's habitual cry.
It seems that everything is normal, it's just ten minutes later than usual - well, maybe it was something I accidentally did when I sneaked out today that caused the butterfly effect, causing Yuan Mengmeng's actions to be criticized.
A little delayed?
Without thinking much, Zhang Ke received her as usual, and spent a peaceful and repetitive night following the previous trajectory.
Just when Zhang Ke thought he was being suspicious, Yuan Mengmeng woke up the next morning and said something that had never appeared in every reincarnation in the past.
"I suddenly miss the teachers and schools I used to have. Shall we go back to the university today?"
"What? Today? Back to school?" Zhang Ke was surprised. Obviously, everything in the conversation last night followed the original script. He did not say more or less keywords related to school, but how could the other party do it?
Did you suddenly have this thought?
"Well, I saw on the school's official website that there is a special school bus to receive alumni. You can sign up online. Let's go and take a look today."
"But...you don't go to work?"
