This elevator always feels strange when it appears in an abandoned building, but it cannot be ruled out that it is an abandoned elevator. But Cheng Zhan took him straight to the elevator, and Si Ye asked him, "Brother, it's only two stories high.
Do we need to take the elevator?"
After walking such a long way, it’s not difficult to go upstairs, right?
What's more, given the damage to this building, they could just climb up it based on their leg strength. But the problem is, it doesn't look like it can be inhabited.
Si Ye looked at the elevator and saw that the display screen was not lit.
Cheng Zhan didn't reply to him. He reached out and touched the display screen, and it turned on!
Moreover, the elevator door also opened.
Cheng Zhan walked in first, and Si Ye followed closely, but paused in the next second. This elevator, how should I put it, had three black mirrors, and there were black mirrors above his head and below his feet. It gave him the feeling that
It's like you can step into hell with one foot.
When Cheng Zhan saw this, he half-smiled, "Are you scared?"
Who is afraid of who is a son of a bitch!
Si Ye stepped in.
Immediately afterwards, the elevator door closed.
The moment it closed, Si Ye realized that both doors of the elevator were also covered with black mirrors. The moment the elevator door closed, countless Si Ye and countless Cheng Zhan appeared in this space.
Si Ye felt a little dizzy.
The elevator started to move right after.
But it's not up, but down.
There was no display screen in the elevator, but Si Ye could clearly feel the speed of descent, which was quite fast. He was wondering how deep the underground was, and how long it could take for it to go down.
Just as I was thinking about it, the elevator stopped.
The moment the elevator door opened, Si Ye felt as if he had entered the starry sky. It was a large space, and the stars above his head were really as bright as the night sky. There was also a faint Milky Way twinkling, and one or two stars flashed across from time to time.
meteor.
There is a shining road beneath your feet.
It is said to be a road, but in fact it is more like a wide ribbon with stars on both sides of the ribbon, stretching far away.
Cheng Zhan led the way, walking at a leisurely pace. Si Ye followed behind, following suit, thinking that it was obviously an abandoned small building, but he didn't expect that there was so much going on beneath his feet.
Soon, Cheng Zhan stopped in front of him. Just when Si Ye was about to ask him where he was going, he saw a gap opening in front of him, and a ray of light came out of the gap.
Cheng Zhan remained motionless, letting the light cover his body. Si Ye was blinded by the light and raised his hand to cover it. Soon, the crack in the door opened wider and wider, and the light gradually disappeared.
There was a young man standing by the door. When he saw Cheng Zhan, he smiled and said, "You're here."
He looked behind him again, saw Si Ye, and said, "I thought you could bring a girl here."
…
The person who came to greet him was Ji Dan.
Live in the attic behind the door.
Yes, Si Ye thought that behind the ten thousand feet of light there could be a dazzling palace or something, but when he came in and took a look, it was just a attic.
The attic is surrounded by books.
Yes, the things under my feet are all books...
But not all of them are physical books. Many of them are like virtual images, which look just like physical books, but you can't touch them with your hands. They look like they are stepping on the soles of your feet. They are virtual books.
In addition to books, there are many clocks wandering around the space.
Wander!
Yes, that's the literal meaning.
Those clocks were wandering around as if they had legs, which reminded him of wandering spirits. Cheng Zhan introduced to him that these were time spirits.
What is the soul of time?
Ji Dan gave a simple and standard explanation, "The soul of the lost time."
Does time still have soul?
It’s absolutely amazing!
Ji Dan said, "Of course, everything has a soul, but you can't see it."
Si Ye agrees with this, but he is asked to admit that the lost time also has souls? This...
Besides, this Ji Dan looks to be about the same age as them, in her early twenties. She is dressed quite...Republic of China style, with overalls, a plaid shirt, and the most eye-catching thing is the hat on her head.
Top hat!
The hat is made of brown wool and has a gold edge. The brim is very large, which makes it look particularly exaggerated at first glance. It looks pretty, but...
Si Ye always felt that there was something wrong with his appearance, and after careful inspection, he saw the clues. This man's ears were quite strange. They seemed to be longer than ordinary people, and the tops of his ears were pointed.
At first glance, it looks like the ears of the elves in the TV series. The skin is very fair and there are a few freckles on both sides of the bridge of the nose.
Ji Dan asked him, "Do you think I look strange?"
It's quite straightforward.
So Si Ye answered directly, "Yes, you look different from normal people."
Ji Dan stared at him and said, "You can be reborn in someone else's body, and you are different from normal people."
Si Ye smiled and replied, "Yes, that's why Brother Zhan brought me to see you."
Birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
Hearing this, Ji Dan turned to look at Cheng Zhan, "When did you accept your younger brother?"
Cheng Zhan said lightly, "You can take it if you want."
Well, Ji Dan didn't ask much, but said to Si Ye, "It would be great if you were a girl. I think he should fall in love."
Si Ye made a prank, "Didn't he talk about it?"
Ji Dan said sincerely, "No."
Si Ye couldn't help but laugh.
Cheng Zhan looked helpless, "Can you tell me something serious?"
The business is Bai Rong.
Ji Dan handed over very detailed information, complete with pictures and texts, and paired it with video images that appeared out of thin air. These images were three-dimensional and real. When Si Ye was in them, he suddenly felt like he was watching a 3D movie.
These scenes show Bai Rong commuting to and from get off work. She sleepily catches the bus to the store early in the morning, and then hurriedly takes the subway to buy drinks at a bar after get off work in the evening.
Every day seems very busy.
"My emotional life is blank. I am single and I don't have a boyfriend. Maybe it's because I am too busy at work and I don't have many friends. The family members are relatively simple, including parents and a younger brother." Ji Dan added here.
In one sentence, "Preferring boys over girls, a typical devil who helps his younger brother."
Si Ye then understood why she was so desperate to make money despite being a single girl. It turned out to be related to her family situation.
"Where did this image data come from?" Si Ye asked confused.
It’s so clear and detailed, can we also find out how Bai Rong died?
Ji Dan is a very smart person. Hearing these words, he understood what Si Ye meant and said, "It's all based on the surveillance data on the street, but I've processed the picture a bit to make the 3D effect more immersive."
As expected, he was a master in this field. If Si Ye hadn't known about the use of modern science and technology on his way here, he would have thought that Cheng Zhan had taken him to the ninth heaven.
"Is Bai Rong related to Lin Ran? Or..." Si Ye thought for a while, "Do you know Xiao Xu?"
Ji Dan didn't immediately ask him who Xiao Xu and Lin Ran were. Si Ye knew from one look at this posture that Ji Dan looked strange, but he must be a master. He should have investigated the entire incident, including
Related people, so he is no stranger to the names Lin Ran and Xiao Xu.
Ji Dan didn't beat around the bush, "The three of them knew each other. Xiao Xu didn't have much contact with Bai Rong, but Lin Ran had met Bai Rong. It was obvious that both Xiao Xu and Lin Ran were very friendly when contacting Bai Rong.
Be careful and use ordinary methods to check, you won’t be able to find it.”
I gave Si Ye a copy of the call records. One of the numbers was Bai Rong, and the other was a temporary number. The number of calls was not many and infrequent, but Ji Dan circled them.
"I checked and found that the temporary number belongs to Xiao Xu. As for Lin Ran," Ji Dan didn't know where he pressed the button. He raised his hand and swiped it lightly, and a picture appeared in front of him. "The only image data, let's take a look.
Cherish it."
It looks like a coffee shop.
There were not many customers, and the time was displayed as 9:15 a.m., which should have been shortly after the coffee shop opened. In a corner, not by the window, there were two girls sitting facing each other.
Although Ji Dan's image data comes from the camera, what is unique is that he can convert the plane image of the camera into the clearest three-dimensional presentation, so there is no positional occlusion.
The faces of the two people could be clearly seen. They were indeed Lin Ran and Bai Rong.
Bai Rong was crying and seemed helpless. Lin Ran handed her a tissue and held her hand to comfort her. Bai Rong took the tissue and wiped her tears, her eyes were very swollen.
"What are these two people talking about?" Si Ye asked.
This put Ji Dan in a dilemma, "I don't know exactly what was said, but judging from the shape of her mouth, it should be Lin Ran who told her that she would help her."
Bai Rong actually didn't say much during the whole process, she was focused on crying.
Ji Dan gave another piece of information, which was about the phone call between Lin Ran and Bai Rong. They also used a temporary number, but compared to Xiao Xu, she and Bai Rong had more frequent contact over a period of time.
Si Ye asked the key question, "Is Bai Rong's death related to Lin Ran?"
Ji Dan looked at him and then at Cheng Zhan, who was flipping through a book. During the whole process, Cheng Zhan remained a bystander and did not express any opinions.
Cheng Zhan didn't look here, but he also noticed that Ji Dan was looking at him. His eyes were still on the book, and his tone was indifferent, "You can say whatever you want."
Ji Dan smiled at the corner of her mouth and looked back at Si Ye, this time with the intention of sizing him up. Si Ye raised his eyebrows and looked at him, not wanting to avoid him.
"Can't you see ghosts? Can't you just ask Bai Rong?" Ji Dan asked directly.
Si Ye didn't hide it, "I'm not good at it yet. I can see ghosts, but I can't communicate."
I thought to myself that Ji Dan could check someone out. Cheng Zhan probably didn't say that he could see ghosts, or maybe Cheng Zhan asked Ji Dan to check him out when they first met in Shangri-La.
Everyone knows he can see ghosts!
Ji Dan looked around him this time, as if he were looking at a piece of merchandise. Her eyes looked like she was looking for instructions for use. Si Ye just stared at him, not understanding what he meant.
But soon, Ji Dan made his intention clear.
He turned to Cheng Zhan and asked, "Don't Jiang Zhou know what he is?"
After saying this, Si Ye raised his eyebrows, feeling half displeased and half evil, "I am the same person now, right?"
Ji Dan smiled and said without being polite, "Is the body yours?"
When asked in return, Si Ye had nothing to say.
Cheng Zhan spoke at this time, "Aye, maybe he is a complicated creature. Let's get to know him slowly."
Si Ye:……
"Can you please go back to Bai Rong?" He said patiently.
Ji Dan always had curiosity and interest in Si Ye in her eyes, but she kindly answered him, "Suicide."
