Chapter 3846 The second puzzle piece
Before they entered the room, Angel had actually scanned the layout of the room.
Inside is a very narrow rental house.
There is one bedroom and one living room, and there is not even a bathroom. Instead, there is a bathroom shared by everyone on the third floor in the middle of the corridor.
The interior is just as Kaushik said, there are all kinds of debris piled up. At present, these debris are nothing worth paying attention to. They are basically books, posters, and some old costumes.
As for the other furnishings, Angel didn't find anything unusual.
Angel has not yet discovered what "it" Kaushik is talking about.
The only thing that worried Angel a little was that there was a familiar photo wall on the wall beside the bed in the bedroom.
This photo wall is still fixed on the wall with a square wooden board, and a large number of photos are posted on the wooden board in chronological order.
The protagonist in the photo is still Kaushik.
It’s exactly the same as the photo wall in Kaushik’s dormitory at Prada Media!
"If it's the same photo wall, then according to the decoration in the company dormitory, the clues should be in the four photos in the middle?"
Angel muttered secretly in his heart, and then controlled the God's perspective to further observe the four photos in the middle.
The types of these four photos are the same as those in the company dormitory. They are all photos of Kaushik and others. Since he does not know who the people in the photos are, Angel has no way of analyzing the photos.
However, based on what Starworm found in the company dormitory before, these four photos are probably also double-layered photos, with the real "photos" hidden underneath.
My eyes slowly pass through the surface of the photo...
Sure enough, Angel saw the interlayer of the photo.
When the four photos are combined, it becomes a new photo!
The look of this photo is exactly the same as the one in the company dormitory. They both look like photos taken in a "cell".
The iron bars are the symbol of prison.
Inside the prison is an imprisoned silhouette. Because it is dark inside, it is not clear. But the appearance of the humanoid silhouette is very similar to Kaushik...
At first, Starworm also discovered this photo, and was watched by the people in the "cell". The next second, he entered the challenge space of the time radio.
And now, in Kaushik's self-rented house, the exact same "prison" photo appeared again.
Does it mean...
Is there also a fashion monster sealed in this "prison"?
Is it another time radio?
When Angel was full of doubts, Kaushik and Starworm had already opened the door of the rental house and walked in.
Kaushik took Starworm, avoided all kinds of debris on the ground, and walked towards the bedroom.
Soon, they stopped by the bed in the bedroom.
After arriving here, Starworm immediately discovered the photo wall above the bed!
"Another photo wall?!" Star Bug was stunned: Although the content of the photos seemed to be different from the photo wall in the company dormitory, the arrangement was exactly the same.
From children to teenagers, from youth to adulthood, from middle age to old age, and finally from old age to children... These photos are arranged in a circle on the wooden wall in chronological order.
In the middle are four photos of Kaushik and others.
To Starworm, such a decoration is simply another "time is a circle".
If according to the situation in the company dormitory, the four photos in the middle of the photo wall, shouldn't they...
Starworm looked at Kaushik with doubts in his eyes.
Kaushik seemed to have guessed what the starworm was thinking, and nodded slightly: "Yes, the one sealed here is also 'it'."
Kaushik paused and turned to look directly at Starworm: "The time radio requires two puzzle pieces to unlock its complete form. If you follow the normal process, I will take you when you successfully get the first time radio puzzle piece.
Come here so you can get the second piece of the puzzle."
"But now, you said that you don't have the first puzzle piece, so I can't give you the second puzzle piece."
Starworm wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything and just looked at Kaushik quietly.
Kaushik originally had a glimmer of hope. Maybe the first puzzle piece was right here with the Star Worm, but he didn't want to admit it. But looking at the Star Worm's silent look, his last glimmer of hope was shattered.
After pondering for a moment, Kaushik whispered: "You sit down for a while, and then I will conduct the test."
Starworm: "What test?"
"Test...where is the first puzzle piece?" Kaushik said as he walked to the photo wall.
An illusory magic book appeared next to him, and pale golden light flew out of the book, leaping at his fingertips.
As if they were dyed with gold dust, his index finger and thumb went straight through the photo wall and pulled out the "prison photo" hidden behind the four photos.
Pale golden light spread from the fingertips, covering this "prison photo".
The outline of the figure that was about to move in the "prison" returned to static state under the cover of golden light.
Kaushik looked at the "prison photo" in his hand with a dazed expression, as if he was seeing the past through it...
"Through it, can you find the first puzzle piece?" Starworm hesitated for a moment and said.
Kaushik was still immersed in memories of the past, but he suddenly came back to his senses when he heard the voice of the star bug.
Originally, Kaushik didn't want to say anything. Perhaps the previous memories made him think of something. He pondered for a moment and said softly: "The time radio is a legacy left by a friend of mine."
"In other words, both the one in my dormitory and the one here actually originated from the same time radio. However, it was divided into two puzzle pieces and I hid them in two photo walls."
"Since they have the same origin, you can naturally sense the breath of another puzzle piece through this puzzle piece."
Kaushik brought the starworm here because he wanted to use it to confirm whether there was a puzzle piece of the time radio inside the starworm.
"I see... By the way, you just mentioned inheritance." Starworm said in a surprised tone: "Can the puzzle pieces of fashion monsters be passed down?"
If it could be passed down, wouldn't it mean that the children of big families would be able to obtain the high-end fashion monsters of their fathers as soon as they were born?
Kaushik: "With some special methods, it can be passed on to others."
Starworm wanted to ask what this special method was, but Kaushik did not explain it. He just said softly: "Even if the children of the big families can obtain the high-level monsters of their fathers, they still have to pass the test of challenging tasks."
"Moreover, the difficulty of this kind of inherited challenge mission is one level higher than usual. Didn't you already experience it just now?"
"Even if the children of the big family can survive, it is only due to their own abilities."
Starworm recalled the "Unprocessed Letter" mission he had just experienced not long ago. The difficulty of that mission... Starworm also had a hard time judging.
Anyway, he has no hope of completing it.
Kaushik: "Put other things aside for now and talk about the business first. Then you do it as I said."
Starworm hesitated for two seconds, then nodded.
Kaushik: "Close your eyes and imagine that you are in a quiet, warm environment with nothing around you..."
Starworm followed Kaushik's instructions, closed his eyes, and slowly cleared his mind...
Kaushik looked at the starworm silently. When he saw that the starworm's "eye movements" were not so frequent, he knew it was time to test.
He placed the "prison photo" obscured by golden light in front of Starworm's forehead.
Even though he was so close, the starworm with his eyes closed still didn't sense anything unusual.
As for the photo, after approaching the starworm, it slowly emitted clusters of brilliance. These brilliance seemed to be "breathing", exchanging external information with internal information.
This "breathing" lasted about five minutes.
Kaushik took back the prison photo. He closed his eyes and sensed some information in the photo. After a while, his eyes showed a hint of disappointment.
——I didn’t feel any breath.
In other words, Starworm did not lie, and the puzzle pieces of the time radio were indeed not in his possession.
"You can open your eyes now."
A tired voice sounded in Star Bug's ears.
He opened his eyes and immediately saw Kaushik with a frown on his face.
Kaushik saw Starworm looking over and said softly: "I just confirmed that the puzzle piece of the time radio is indeed not on you."
