Chapter 179: Everywhere(1/2)
Xu Wang pulled his savior into the office, slammed the door, and pointed out the window: "Can you see it too?!"
Wu Sheng lit up the owl icon on his arm: "I still have this."
"I have it too!" Xu Wang simply wanted to hug him and cry, just like the kind of crying joy when meeting his compatriots in a foreign country.
"Don't be excited," Wu Sheng patted his shoulder, "Tell me about the situation."
Xu Wang told all his experiences, but the timeline of this matter was too messy, so it was difficult for him not to be excited, so he was incoherent and could not listen to it later. It was like vegetables clearly classified and neatly coded, making himself a rock salad.
The savior heard it from beginning to end and said nothing. Xu Wang probably didn't know where to ask the question, and was embarrassed to interrupt him.
"Well, give me a minute to sort it out," Xu Wang shook his head, trying to calm himself down, "I'll tell you again..."
"Is there any omission?" Wu Sheng asked.
"Ah, it should be gone..." Xu Wang was a little embarrassed, "It's just that I'm talking too chaotic, I'm afraid of you..."
"It's not messy, it's very clear." Wu Sheng's eyes were clear, "You have lost your memory, and you have experienced two resets of time. Once you were killed, once you pulled the door and called the police, but there was no actual danger. Both times happened at 12:04, the numbers outside the window decreased from 13 to 11, and strange owl pictures appeared on your arms, and the information of "Living Through 4:44 pm."
"How did you summarize it..." Xu Wang looked at the savior's eyes now, just like a poor student looking at a great master.
Wu Sheng likes the recognition and admiration in the eyes of the other party. He has lost his memory until now, and he has shown a real smile for the first time: "Because I am the same as you, I have also lost my memory. I have also experienced two resets of time, and I can also see the numbers and arm information outside the window. The only difference is that I have never died. Both times are the same as yours for the second time. I am so excited that I reset it."
The battle alone suddenly turned into joining hands, and the life-saving benefactor made people feel very safe. Xu Wang's panic was slowly replaced by a huge question: "Why is this? Is this a mutation?"
"It's not clear yet." Wu Sheng looked down at his watch, 12:09, "It is known that 12:04 is a key node. We have successfully passed it, so it depends on what will happen next."
"Next?" Xu Wang's heart tightened, "What do you mean is there will be dangers next?"
"Of course," said Wu Sheng, "if you have a safe journey, 'living past 4:44 pm' will be no reason to become a test."
"Test questions?" The life-saving benefactor's idea is too difficult to keep up.
"Oh, this is just a metaphor for me." Wu Sheng clicked the owl on his arm and said, "Look, there are rosters, pencil cases, paper paper, transcripts, and four items. Among them, the rosters and transcripts are all blank. There is only one sentence in the rosters, "Living through 4:44 pm". There are a lot of things in the pencil case, and the prefixes are 'anti-fair', 'mart', and 'fantasy'. Does it look like props to play games?"
"It's a bit..." Xu Wang didn't expect that there were so many tricks in the owl. He only read that sentence and didn't click anywhere else. And every time four minutes later, the clerk's crazy boyfriend came, and he didn't have time to think about more.
"I haven't clicked it yet, and I don't know what effect they can do, but there are rosters, pencil cases, and transcripts. In my opinion, this is an exam," Wu Sheng continued. "The paper should have written the answer, but it should be closer to some kind of hint."
Xu Wang remembered the first few crisp "dings", which were indeed very similar to the prompt sound of a mobile phone.
Wu Sheng kept his smile and looked serious: "I guess, for some difficult reasons, we were selected to take this exam. The test question was 'Living through 4:44 pm'..."
"During this period, the mysterious power behind this exam will set various obstacles for us. Once we fail, the time will be reset. The number outside the window is the number of times we can fail, that is, you and I share 13 opportunities..."
"Once the number is zero, no one knows what we will face, but if possible, I still like to win the challenge and take a hundred points to hit the test organizer's face..."
He let out a sigh of relief, and he looked into Xu Wang's eyes carefully: "The next one is the most important part. We must find out the trigger conditions for the reset time. The first time is your death, what is the second time?"
Xu Wang also looked at him seriously, and just watched him without saying anything.
Wu Sheng was stunned and probably came back to his senses: "Did I say too much in one breath? It's actually not that complicated..."
"Brother," Xu Wang grabbed one hand of his savior and held it tightly with both hands. "Tell me the truth, are you lying to me? Actually, you haven't lost your memory, you know everything..."
Time 12:17. I was in a trance and caught off guard.
"Tu tuk."
Xu Wang came to his senses amid the knock on the door, and the palm of his hand seemed to have the warmth of his life-saving benefactor.
Time 12:00
The number outside the window has become "10".
Half a minute later, the female clerk put down her coffee for the fourth time.
One and a half minutes later, Wu Sheng rushed into the office and panted: "No, there are others who took this exam!"
...
15th floor, xx pet grooming center.
"Wool! Wool--"
"Lin Lin, why does it keep calling..." He didn't know what was wrong with him, so he had to rely on the brand on his chest to remember the names of himself and his colleagues next to him.
It was not appropriate to say "remembering" and his head was still blank, but he just remembered the two names he saw for the time being.
His name tag reads Kuang Jinxin.
The girl next to him who helped him comfort the dog was named Lin Lin, who looked two years younger than him.
The one who is enjoying the service is a golden retriever, who should be docile, but he is very fierce. Lin Lin has been comforting her, but she is still anxious.
"You're pregnant, you're the most sensitive when you're mama." Lin Lin touched the golden retriever's head and comforted her very gently.
Kuang Jinxin put down the pet comb: "Well, it's almost done."
Lin Lin was stunned and laughed and cried: "You have only combed it twice."
"Ah?" Kuang Jinxin tilted his head in a daze, "But I think I've been combing for a long time."
The golden retriever suddenly jumped off the beauty table and ran out.
An employee happened to pass by, intercepted the dog, and coaxed it for a long time before he coaxed the dog so much that he was willing to carry it back.
Kuang Jinxin looked at the golden retriever who was lying on the beauty table again, and was confused for a moment.
If he remembers correctly, the dog has run out three times, and the employee happens to pass by every time. It’s so strange.
"Why are you stunned?" Lin Lin took his pet comb and started working hard.
Kuang Jinxin looked around the beauty room and found that there were walls on all sides, no windows, only a glass door, and the company's logo was not airtight.
It is probably because the room is a bit boring, but Jinxin thought, so he had that inexplicable illusion.
...
16th floor, xx brand design studio.
Dummies are everywhere, with all kinds of fabrics chaotic, designers are busy running around, the lights seem to be broken, and the property owner sits on the ladder to repair. In short, there is a lively work scene.
A beautiful man sat in a corner. Although it was an open office area, it can still be seen that the space around him was relatively larger and more independent.
Instead of busy, he turned the chair for a while and looked out the window. Although he was frowning, his posture was leisurely, which was in sharp contrast to the employees who fought all over the room.
"Director Chi, this is the theme of the next season, take a look." The employee sent it to the planning.
The contemplative man, without looking back, was still trapped in his aesthetic system: "Which company's countdown advertisement is this?"
"Hmm?" The employee was not sure.
"It's so ugly." The man didn't need the employee to answer, so he gave him a true comment.
The employees followed the leaders to look out the window, and there were no advertisements.
Chi Yingxue no longer looked at the big and ugly red "11", turned back to the chair, and her eyes fell on the planning project.
This is the third time he has received the same planning proposal.
It's indeed a dream.
Only in dreams can he remember the blank, and his employees have done things over and over again.
There are also extra tattoos on the arms.
Whether it is design or color matching, it is far from "beauty". The only advantage is that it can be opened, which is quite strange.
But since it was a dream, there was no need to restrain himself - the barking of the dog downstairs made him feel a headache.
When the employee sent a plan for the second time, he asked, there was a pet grooming center downstairs.
"What kind of pet grooming is being held in the building..." He murmured and stood up, and walked out directly. He wanted to have a good night's sleep and have a stable dream. This requirement is not high and should be met.
The employee was left aside, recalling the leader's face just now, "I'm going to find fault", but he didn't dare to call the left behind.
The messy office area made Chi Yingxue walk around the road from the workstation to the door, and was almost hit by the pliers falling from the ladder of the maintenance worker. Fortunately, he flashed by flexibly.
He only went down the first floor, so he didn't bother to wait for the elevator and walked directly to the stairs.
On the stairs, I met a group of security guards holding a man down. I was probably afraid that the impact would be bad, so I didn't take the elevator.
He is not in a hurry, and civilized gives way.
But when the man passed by him, he suddenly broke free from the security guard like crazy and wanted to strangle his neck.
He didn't know whether the other party was ill and went to the doctor or was really confident that he could hold him hostage with his bare hands. Anyway, he didn't give the other party a chance, so he kicked him down and was scared to the security guard, afraid that the other party would not survive if he was beaten by this.
In fact, he kept his strength. If he really kicked, the other party had to roll down the stairs.
After this incident, I went downstairs and was not angry anymore, but I didn't know that the dog barking was more fierce and it sounded more sincerely, which made him feel a headache again.
He ignored the front desk to block it, and he rushed to the beauty room directly. As soon as he opened the door, he saw two people and a dog.
Kuang Jinxin and Lin Lin were also stunned.
But the golden retriever suddenly jumped down, and Pakchi Yingxue stopped leaving his legs. He stuck out his tongue and wagged his tail, and even his screams were jubilant.
Chi Yingxue was inexplicably confused.
Kuang Jinxin smiled and said, "It likes you."
Chi Yingxue always felt that the voice was very friendly, but the brain in the dream was useless. He looked at the other party carefully, forgot why he came, and said, "Have we seen it somewhere?"
