Chapter 2 misterioso lento

Lying in bed, I can't sleep.

The thing that happened a week ago always kept coming to my mind and lingering.

"This world is just a projection of the superior world. In other words, we are not real existence." Shui Yue's words echoed in her ears repeatedly.

Later I didn't hold Shuiyue's outstretched hand.

"I'm sorry, I... can't join you," I said.

"Ha?" Shuiyue raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at me in surprise.

"Although I don't quite understand how you did the things just now, I understand the general situation. Regardless of whether science can explain it, you all have special abilities. Don't consider the possibility of time travel for now - even if you really come from the future, I'm afraid in that world, I'll have some abilities like you. But in fact, I'm just an ordinary person now and have no abilities. Besides, I don't know what you want to do, why I want me to join."

Shuiyue didn't say a word and looked at me with a smile. But I saw a little loss in his smile.

Xiao Ai looked indifferent and looked down silently and ate the cake.

"That," to break the atmosphere of silence, I raised my voice a little, "Although I'm sorry I can't join you, it's okay to stay here tonight. After all, it's a big trouble to go to the hotel so late. The cakes are left over, so don't be polite, please eat them casually. If you don't finish eating, it will be poured out tomorrow. The place here is narrow, and I just slept on the sofa. I'm sorry to have two people on the sofa tonight, so I'll get the blanket."

After saying that, I was about to get up and go to the closet to get the pillows and blankets.

"No need to worry, we have a place to spend the night." Shuiyue waved her hand, "Before we leave, there are still some things I want to ask you."

"Speaking."

"Have you seen something like white on Xiao Ai and me before?"

"some."

“From when?”

"About... let's start with senior high school."

"So when was the last time I saw it before I met us?"

The last time? In fact, I saw a few times in my third year of high school, and I couldn’t remember the last time, but I must have not been to college at that time.

The two people on the opposite side looked at each other, and Shuiyue seemed to be saying "It's like this", while Xiao Ai seemed to be saying: "That's it."

Then Shuiyue spoke.

"Actually, we didn't think something was right when we saw you this time. The last time Xiao Ai met you, your ability had already awakened, but this time Xiao Ai observed you for several days and found that you were a completely ordinary person."

You have been following me? Yes, I won’t notice how long it takes to be followed by a psychic person like you. No wonder you are so familiar with the cake shop.

"That's not," Shuiyue said with a smile, "We come from the future. In the past, that is, the present, we are regular visitors here."

"Is it because I joined you?"

"Well," Shuiyue nodded and said with a smile: "At that time, everyone often came to you to deal with the leftover cakes."

"Later, you died. In order to save you, we reversed the time back to the present and let everything start again." Shuishan Aiai had finished eating the cake and replenished it slowly with a coffee cup.

Reversal? What a relaxed tone. Reversal time cannot be done by just one person or a few people in any case.

"Time travel is difficult, but it is much easier to reverse time." Shuiyue pointed to the poster on the wall. "Like this painting hanging on the wall, its state is constant. There is no difference between an hour and two hours, so just add the information of the state one hour ago to this painting, then it is the painting one hour ago. And our ability is to control the information. The same is true when you saw me recovering the coffee that was knocked down just now."

So, you have also returned me to my original state - that is, now?

"A little more complicated than you think, we reset the state of the entire earth."

The whole earth? What a joke!!

"Haha, who said no? This is really a big project." Shui Yue said lightly, "We have spent a lot of effort to reset the earth. However, the so-called reset is just to copy the current information to the earth at that time. You won't see the earth reverse, just a "bang", and everything will go back to the past - if you have to make an analogy, it's a bit like a computer restart. If a Martian is looking at the earth, he will find that the earth has instantly returned to a certain point in the past. But for that Martian, his time has not changed. It's probably that."

"So what about your future?" I asked.

"Not exists. Just like the computer restart, all the unsaved things are gone. Except for Xiao Ai, my status with the other two guys, no other information is retained."

What a bunch of guys.

"Then, why do you have to put so much effort into resurrecting me? I can't think of a reason for you to resurrect me."

Shuiyue looked at me with a constant smile, "The reason I want to regress history is because there are not many capable people in this world. Strictly speaking, there are only 4 people."

Is there another person I don’t know who has this special ability?

"No, there are two. You are not a complete ability, so you don't count."

I became more and more confused. Didn’t I just say that I was very important, why can’t I even be a capable person now?

"Oh, although I kept saying I didn't join us, I was still very interested in our affairs."

Everything is good for you, I am just interested in the "me with superpowers".

"If you don't mind, can you pour me another cup of coffee?" Shuiyue raised the empty cup.

"I want it too, and I also want a yellow peach cake." Xiao Ai added without missing the opportunity.

After getting the coffee and cakes in hand, I sat back on the sofa.

"One nine, the white things you see," Shuiyue did not look at me, but stared at the cup filled with coffee. "We call it 'Naga'. There is no special reason, there must be a name anyway. If we must explain what this thing is, we think it is the materialization of negative entropy."

The materialization of negative entropy? I don’t understand at all.

"In my impression, your understanding is not only at this level. Sunlight is another example of negative entropy materialization. Plants can grow with sunlight, and humans can also use it to generate electricity."

But what you use is not something that ordinary people can see. This kind of thing is just your wishful thinking.

Shui Yue smiled subtly, "Humans cannot see ultraviolet rays, but bees can. I am afraid that the world in bees' eyes and the world in humans' eyes are not the same. We abilities are born to understand the essence of "Naga" and can also be used by them. These things may seem a bit incredible to ordinary humans. If I tell an ordinary person how we use "Naga", it is probably like a monkey trying to teach people how to hook branches with their tails - because humans do not have a tail, how to use their tails is also unimaginable for humans."

It sounds quite reasonable, but it is a bit difficult for me to recognize such a world at once.

"It doesn't matter whether we can understand our world," Shuiyue continued looking at my confused look, "After all, you have to grow a tail to understand the purpose of the tail. It should be noted that there is no free lunch in the world. We can transform the world, but there must be someone who has to pay the price for this transformation - some people may pay the price, and it may also be another parallel universe."

Oh, it's such an amazing topic.

"Of course, some abilities do not agree with this view. They believe that since they are natural products, they can also apply this ability. After thousands of years of debates with war, that faction won. So humans entered the era of industrial revolution. But what was accompanied by the disappearance of a large number of abilities - this is very logical. The one who paid the price was naturally the people who enjoyed the privilege. Later, it was basically extinct. However, it seems that we are not the only ones who paid the price, but also people from another world also paid the price. They exist in a parallel universe, and you can serve as a bridge connecting the two universes. This is also your value."

It's so confusing! I'm obviously an ordinary college student who works in a cake shop every night, so why has it become a bridge? Hello, there's a limit to kidding?

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you don't understand now. Your life is destined to be unnatural, so today we will leave. Thank you for your cake and coffee." Shuiyue stood up, took out a pda-like thing from her pocket, and pressed her fingers on the touch screen a few times. Then she pulled the girl beside him and nodded to me and then disappeared.

If it is in a cartoon, people should slowly disappear. The visual effect of disappearing like this is too poor.

"What a terrible guy," I couldn't help but sigh when I thought about the end of my life.

It’s really strange that if something real-life is happening, even if it’s very small, for example, one day the cake shop business is particularly good, or a girl confesses to you, you may be so excited that you can’t sleep. But when you encounter something that is too out of line with reality, such as the two guys I met. No matter how big this matter is, the universe, and the world peace, it seems that they have nothing to do with me. Originally, the world country is the matter of the United Nations, even if the class committee members are responsible for the class affairs in middle schools, what’s the matter with me?

Go to bed quickly, you will have classes tomorrow and work at night.
Chapter completed!
