Players Please Get In the Car

"You still think the motive is important until now?" Tang Ming sneered, "There was no such neighbor last night. Her appearance is enough to show that the plot of Pumpkin City will change according to the player's actions. If the robber is not killed, Dr. Wu His wife and daughter may still die because of him.”

“Then what will happen if you kill him?” Wang Ling said: “Are we out now?”

Tang Ming stepped on the fallen corpse, "At least now Dr. Wu's wife and daughter can't die because of home invasion. I have modified the main plot, and we will see if there will be any changes in Pumpkin City as a result."

The four of them faced each other, and when they heard the sirens in the distance, they had no choice but to prepare to leave.

Xu Huo turned around and looked at the hostess, whose face turned pale. "When the police come, just tell the truth. The man we killed was a habitual robbery offender. You are safe now."

The hostess still looked at them warily.

When the police arrived outside the house, Xu Huo and the others exited without attracting anyone's attention. They followed the police car all the way to the police station and felt relieved after confirming that Dr. Wu's wife and daughter were safe.

However, they did not leave, but lingered nearby to prevent others from doing harm to these two people.

But what they never expected was that a short time later, an arrest operation was broadcast in real time on TV, and the fugitive shot dead on the spot was the man who was killed by Tang Ming before. At the same time, the report also tracked the latest news. , stating that the robbers had killed one person and seriously injured another, and those who were sent to the hospital for rescue are still not out of danger.

The flashing scenes in the video footage can clearly identify the Sunshine Tree Villa area - even though they killed the robber in the villa and watched "Dr. Wu's wife and daughter" enter the police station, the subsequent "plot" is still Continued, nothing changed.

"It seems that it has little to do with whether we block it or not." Meng Wenguang hesitated, "What exactly does Dr. Wu want the players who come in to do?"

In the police station, the mother and daughter were still drinking hot tea peacefully, but on the other side of the villa area, a body was carried out, a seriously injured person. It seems that the key to this important plot is not whether the mother and daughter can survive. In the end, it was the same as what they had thought before. There was no practical significance in rescuing two characters in a false plot in a false space, so their focus was not right.

"I'll go to the company and have a look." After Xu Huo said that, he left 12th Street. After a few subtle touches, he returned to 16th Street again and got the recorder he had left behind. The content obtained showed that "Dr. Wu" left the company at early 10 o'clock, alone, and his whereabouts were unknown.

"Isn't the time wrong?" Wang Ling said: "Your recorder started working at 9:17. We only stayed at 12th Street for less than 40 minutes. It's just 10 o'clock now. Why has Dr. Wu left the company? The instrument is broken?"

It is easy to check whether the instrument is broken. In fact, the recorder not only captured "Dr. Wu" leaving the company at early 10 o'clock, it also recorded until nearly 10:30. In other words, the time of the content captured by the recorder was far away. longer than they have experienced.

“Does this count as traveling through time and space?” Meng Wenguang wondered, “Is it because the time flow speeds on 12th Street and 16th Street are different?”

Wang Ling immediately checked the records during the day, which included records of him crossing several streets to go to the city hall. After checking, he said: "There is no problem with mine."

Xu Huo also checked the records of his several visits to Little Star Company, "It's no problem either."

Tang Ming's situation was the same. He had two days of records, and there were no problems during the day. As for the night, he wasn't sure because he spent most of his time near 12th Street last night. He himself didn't notice anything wrong, but the record Yi threw it into his pocket after he confirmed that Dr. Wu's wife and daughter were dead.

 At this time, Xu Huo suddenly saw a clock on 15th Street. The time on that clock was running backwards. Wang Ling and others also noticed something was wrong, and jumped onto nearby buildings to observe their surroundings. Finally, they determined that the time on streets 14 and 15 was reversed, while streets 16 and after were normal.

“There is nothing wrong with our timing tool.” Wang Ling checked his watch repeatedly.

 Their watches are almost the same as the time on 16th Street now.

"What is going on?" Wang Ling asked puzzledly: "We can't have a pumpkin city where time is normal and time goes backwards!"

“The watch cannot represent the accurate time.” Tang Ming said: “The time here itself is chaotic, don’t be confused by the tools.”

 A street, the clock on one side runs backwards, and the clock on the other side runs normally, and the 16th street where they are located is the dividing line...

 Xu Huo paused for a moment, signaled the three of them to stay far away, and immediately jumped to the top of 17th Street. When he looked back at the clock on 16th Street, he found that the clock also started to run backwards.

 “Is there something wrong with your watch?” he asked.

Meng Wenguang confirmed it and replied loudly, "Everything is normal."

Xu Huo’s face darkened, “I looked at it on 17th Street, and the watch on 16th Street ran backwards.”

The three of them were surprised and followed them up. They couldn't hide their shock when they saw the clock going backwards. At this time, Yue Rui and the others arrived at Street 15, so they were asked to disperse on Streets 14 to 16 to observe the clocks around them.

After several comparisons, they determined that the clock on that street that a person was on was normal, but it was different from his own timekeeping tool. If he looked back from the street where he was, the clock on the previous street was normal. It's walking backwards.

In order to verify whether all streets were like this, Xu Huo and the others walked back two consecutive streets and came to 18th street. But an accident happened again. They looked at 16 on 17, and the clock on 16 was running backwards. But if you look at 17 at 18, the clock at 17 will move forward normally. If you stand on 19th street, the time at 17th street will still move forward.

“Our time seems to be all messed up.” Meng Wenguang patted his watch, which was running normally, “Who knows what time it is now?”

"About half past ten." Tang Ming replied, then paused and said, "If the time before 9:17 is normal."

 His words also reminded Xu Huo. Xu Huo turned back to Meng Wenguang and said, "I'd like to ask you a favor."

"You should go to 6 Street immediately, preferably within three minutes, and see if the clocks on 5 Street and 7 Street are in opposite directions. If they are opposite, use red warning lights, and if they are the same, use green warning lights. Then go to 4 Street, check if the clock direction on 5th street is normal, use green light for normal and red light for reverse direction.”

Meng Wenguang said there was no problem. Soon, a bright red light lit up in the distant sky. After a brief pause, it turned green again.
