Chapter 42: Time

Walking step by step along the path in front of them. The description in the newspaper wasn't clear enough, so they had to make two more turns around the neighborhood before they could find Dean Xie's home. At this time, Lian Zixin was pondering on Dong Xie's words just now. For this apartment, even something like time travel could be easily realized. From this, it seemed that granting a wish to a resident was really a breeze. It was only a pity that the apartment did not have the means to bring the dead back to life, something that pained him. However, there was nothing he could do about it. Otherwise, he would have loved to be able to bring his wife back to life. It was just that although the apartment could grant a wish, this wish was just too remote for the current Lian Zixin, and anyone knew very well that with so many residents in the apartment, wanting to cross the Blood Character ten times was completely like a thousand horses crossing a single wooden bridge, and in the end, only a very small number of people would be able to survive. This is a hell that is comparable to the cultivation of parasites, human life, in this apartment is just the cheapest consumables, turned into a pile of cold numbers. From the time he lost his own child, he truly realized that living was more difficult than dying. Guilt had tormented him for a long time; that day, if he had watched over his son properly, he would not have been abducted by the traffickers. In a place with a dense flow of people, not even far from the coach station, and with little surveillance around, he was too careless. If his wife hadn't been killed because of this, she wouldn't have been hit by a car. In this world, there is never a good reward for good and evil for evil. Tragedy is never a punishment for the villains, but an accident that will happen to everyone at any time and anywhere. But at least …… he has a ray of hope. The current Lian Zixin is like grasping a rope hanging down from a distant heaven, but the light of heaven can only be faintly seen, but the hell under his feet is incomparably clear. This rope, too, was not strong at all, with the possibility of breaking every hour and every second. Yet he had no choice but to grab onto this rope and climb up towards the unattainable Gate of Heaven. "This is it!" At this time, Dong Xie and the others, finally found the house on the photo published in the newspaper. The house covered a large area, and there was also a large garden. The door to the garden was wide open at this time, and looking in through the door, there was a swimming pool inside. "Let's go in through here." Han Lei uttered these words, but Lian Zixin walked out. "Han Lei, I'll take the front." "You?" "I'll do it." Lian Zixin's eyes were firm at this moment. "Alright, don't argue." Dong Xie looked at Lian Zixin's eyes and could guess what he was thinking. Lian Zixin must have a wish that he wants to fulfill at all costs, and he would rather risk his life to bestow favors on the residents to sell them, wanting to increase the probability of his wish being fulfilled. Although Dong Xie hadn't known Lian Zixin for a very long time, he did have a good feeling about the man, and emotionally, he didn't want Lian Zixin to die here so soon. "I'll go in first." Dong Evil said this without even asking for his opinion, "There are times when the Blood Character mission will be dangerous in the future, you don't have to think about fighting all the time, you'll only die faster that way. This cell phone, you take it first." Then, without waiting for Lian Zixin to speak, he handed the cell phone to Lian Zixin and walked straight towards the garden's gate. Not long after arriving in front of the garden gate, Dong Xie suddenly rushed up with an arrow step, leaping over and crossing the gate at a rapid pace! Although Dong Xie's grades had not been good since his student days, the experience of countless fights had allowed his running and jumping abilities to improve completely, and later on, this could almost be said to have been incorporated into his instincts. This jump over, Dong Xie sighed in relief, in fact, his own heart was beating wildly. However, he also knew that he definitely couldn't keep running away in the face of danger, and when it mattered, he had to have the courage to face it as well. The reason why he had given his cell phone to Lian Zixin was also just in case, if something bad really happened to him, the residents would not lose an important clue to their survival. Everyone was relieved when Dong Xie made this jump, and then one by one, they followed him in. "Then …… go in." "Uh-huh." They then began to walk towards the gate. This time, on the other hand, entering the gate would require someone to guard the gate as well. "You'll guard the gate this time, Dong Xie." Han Lei arranged it this way, "You can't keep letting bear the danger." "I know." The door was gently pushed open, and immediately afterward, Han Lei stepped inside first, while Lian Zixin followed closely behind. Dong Xie, on the other hand, followed, and was about to carry out his job of guarding the …… The door closed with a bang! This scene made Dong Xie stare in anger! He and Yun Nai were just left outside the house! As for Han Lei and Lian Zixin, as soon as they entered the door, they realized that the door was closed, and they were also horrified! How …… could it be! Han Lei rushed to the door and shouted, "Dong Xie, can you hear me? Can you hear me?" However, at the other end of the gate, there was no sound at all! How could this be? Han Lei looked at Lian Zixin behind him. The gate separated them, and Han Lei believed that Dong Xie and Yun Nai wouldn't be killed in an instant. I'm afraid that it was the soundproofing effect of the door itself. This also meant that they wouldn't be able to communicate with Dong Xie, Yun Nai outside. Lian Zixin glanced at Han Lei, clenched his teeth, and said, "Then what do we do?" Han Lei thought for a moment and said, "Continue exploring here! If we wanted to kill us, we would have done so long ago, now, we need to find a way to find clues here!" The indoor windows, outside, were nailed shut with wooden boards, and only some moonlight filtered in, barely giving the place a bit of light. Han Lei and Lian Zixin moved slowly, moving around the spacious living room. There wasn't much furniture in the interior, and the two of them were careful as they walked, fearing that evil spirits might appear. Nearly ten minutes later, they had circled the hall once, but they never found anything of value. At this time, Lian Zixin glanced at the cell phone in his hand. Dong Xie had given him the cell phone, but hadn't asked for it back yet. Lian Zixin thought about what Dong Xie had said, could this cell phone really contact people in other timelines? "Han Lei." Lian Zixin suddenly said to Han Lei, "Do you think that Dong Xie's previous deduction, was correct?" Han Lei heard Lian Zixin say this, and it seemed …… like he had an idea? "You mean what Dong Evil said, exchanging information through inter-temporal communication?" "Yes, that's what I'm thinking." "Then?" Lian Zixin pondered for a while before saying, "Combined with that piece of paper informing those people of our clothing, I have a guess." "A guess?" "If we are located in different timelines, then I'm afraid that those stars, Mu Aishan, are located in the timeline after us." "So?" Han Lei had been following Qin Ziyuan around, and naturally wasn't a fool, and instantly thought of something: "So this is going to? Let the people located in the timeline after us, confirm our end?" For a long time, the occupants had died in the Bloodletter, and many times, no bodies were left behind. However, this is something that is and makes it easy for the occupants to fall into a misconception of thinking. "Let them find …… our bodies? Confirm where we died?" "It will also further inform us of the intelligence they can look into." At this moment, Dong Xie, who was outside the door, continued to look at the mysterious paper under the moonlight. There was another point on this paper that concerned him. It stated that the second task of the star group was to collect the keys of the vegetarian group. The key …… of the occupants? The residents usually kept their keys with them, after all, they needed to go back to their apartments at any time to open the door to check the instructions in blood that appeared on the wall. And what did this quest …… mean? At this moment, Lian Zixin, dialed another number recorded on the paper. It said that it was the number of some phone booth. It had been dialed a few times before, but, there was no answer. And this time, no one answered at first. Just as Lian Zixin was about to hang up the phone in disappointment, he suddenly heard the sound of the other end of the phone being picked up. "Hello ……" "Hey, by the sound of your voice, you're Mu Aishan, right?" Lian Zixin immediately recognized Mu Aishan's voice, as she usually dubbed the characters she played, so she could recognize it. "Yes, yes, it's me." Lian Zixin then asked, "You guys, did you get the task of collecting keys from the apartment residents?" "That's right, who the hell are you? Someone from your program? Let me tell you, your program ……" "I'm not from the show. Listen …… remember what I say to you next ……"
