Samusa bit the barrel of the pen and asked softly, "Osa, what would you do if you wanted to reset the clock that went wrong back to the normal time?"

"Of course, after calibration, all the hour hands were set to the correct position. ”

"Well, look at this. Samusa handed the notebook to Hades, he frowned, and gave up studying what was written on it, "All we need is to calibrate the time of this stone city, but there is still one factor missing. ”

"What factors?"

"Assuming they first entered the Hive Six, then the activated console we saw in the Black Tower was the one they did, and then because of our involvement, time and space sped up again. Samuzo pointed to one of the equations with the tip of his pen and said, "If Xiaokai's Black Tower over there can cancel out the space-time acceleration that happened here, they will have to go to that Black Tower again." ”

"Are you afraid that their initial starting point is in Hive Five?" Hades seemed to understand something.

"Well, we don't know what's going to happen to the Black Tower in front of us, and if something goes wrong, it's going to be very cumbersome to figure out the normal time here, maybe for days in a row, and even the computer will crash. ”

Nohara on the side had been quietly listening to Samusa's narration about Stone City, and when she heard this, she was really a little puzzled, so she stepped forward and asked, "Miss Samusa, why do you have such an assumption? The entrance to this place is only where we came, and if those people came in before us, it would not be unusual for them to come here." ”

"It's true, but no one from our previous Black Tower has set foot in it, which means that they can't start from the same place as us. Without knowing the connection between the six beehives in Stone City, ordinary people will definitely activate and unlock them one after another, and this black tower is the best proof of this. ”

Nohara nodded, and what Samusa said seemed to be right, and she didn't continue to ask.

"Now, you just said that the Black Tower over there in Xiaokai still needs to enter again, right?"

"I'm just assuming that because the acceleration and slow flow velocities are different on both sides, calculations have to be made to reach a conclusion. "Fortunately, Samuzo asked Yang Xiaokai in advance for the exact time when they left the Black Tower, and with his own findings here, he should be able to calculate the difference in flow rate between them within an hour.

Half an hour later, the tip of Samusa's pen circled a not-so-conspicuous number from the complex numbers in the notebook, and this was the difference in the speed of time between the six and two hives, five thousand seven hundred and sixty seconds, which when combined was ninety-six minutes, about an hour and a half.

"Did you figure it out?" Hades, who was almost asleep, suddenly caught a glimpse of Samusa, and he regained his strength and leaned over.

"Well, there is a ninety-six minute difference in the time and space we are in now, and the only way to eliminate these ninety-six minutes is to let Xiaokai go to that black tower again. There, half a minute had passed, and only about a second had been spent outside, which meant that it was necessary to stay in the Black Tower for two days, and it would take forty-eight hours to completely eliminate the time difference between the two planes. ”

"Two days, let Xiaokai stay in the tower for two days?" Hades exclaimed.

"Yes, but the time in the tower seems to have not changed, but in reality it is the same as the outside world, but it is not perceptible to humans. Zhi, have you noticed? We had just had lunch when we went in today, and when we came out, our stomachs were rumbling with hunger. ”

"It sounds like yes. ”

"So they didn't feel hungry or sleepy in that tower, and even two days were only an hour and a half, but it was a big test for them. ”

"Huh, why?"

"Stretching one's time for forty-eight hours for no reason, neither hungry nor sleepy, but not being able to do anything but wait, is bound to torment people insane. Samuzo sighed, but this could only be left to Yang Xiaokai to do.

A few minutes later, Yang Xiaokai received instructions from Shamuzuo, and after spending some time figuring out the current situation, he simply made an hourglass with some sand and carried it into the Black Tower.

I don't know what to expect in this hour and a half, and the whole team has to be together to be safe.

"It's 9:47, and when they came out, it was 11:23, they should really be allowed to go at dawn......" Samuzo suddenly remembered the time outside the Black Tower after that, but now it was too late to inform Yang Xiaokai.

"Honey, go sleep for a while, I'll wake you up when Xiaokai and the others come back. Hades approached Sakisa's bulging belly and stroked it gently, but the more times like this, the more sad and sad the expression on Sakisa's face became.

Watching Sakisa fall asleep, Hades slowly walked out of the room and happened to meet Fujiwara who was keeping vigil in the corridor.

"Isn't a soon-to-be father going to whisper a few words to his children while his wife is asleep?" Fujiwara looked up at the starry sky through the glass, his eyes slightly sighing at the love of the past.

"There's not much to say. ”

"If it were me, there would be a lot of things I wanted to tell him. ”

Hades felt that something was not right, so he stepped forward and asked, "Did you have a family before?"

"It happened a few years ago, hmph, we didn't expect to have a happy family in this business. In the end, it was because I killed their mother and son......" Fujiwara held back the pain in his heart and said with a long sigh of relief, "So, if I were you, I don't know how many things I would have to say to my own children, because once it is too late, he will never hear it again." ”

Hades paused for a few seconds and asked, "Is it the same for everyone else?"

"Ranch has never had true feelings for a woman, and after flirting, he will leave it aside and never care about it again, a typical scumbag. The boss only has a mission and an assassination target in his eyes, and he has never thought about getting married, let alone giving birth to the next generation. That guy used to have this idea like me, but he saw the truth about the killer in time and took the initiative to give up that relationship before he was too deep. It's just me, naïve enough to think that a killer can have a home. ”

"Why did you become a killer?"

"There is no choice. I am an orphan after the earthquake, both parents died, no one wants me like this, but that organization, I will give everything for it, even my own life. ”

"If it were me, I would never do anything like that. Hades said as he leaned in front of the window.

"Trust me, you will, survival and profit are always greater than human nature, once you try, there is no turning back. ”

"Hey, do you regret it?"

"It's too late, it's better to wait for time to die and let me slowly fade out of the organization's sight. Those guys in the organization are greedy for money, as long as they have money, they are willing to accept anything, this is not a killer, just hooligans. That's why I don't want to work with them, but the boss has a different style of doing things, the people he kills are really damned, he is the sword of justice hidden in the dark, but few people can understand him, thinking that he is the same as those gangsters who worship money. ”

"That's why I don't kill people here. After listening to Fujiwara's words, Hades seems to have made some changes to Hanashima Tatsuki.

"It's worthless to kill you, and there's no guy on the mission list. ”

"It's been half a year, and the people in your organization probably think you've rebelled. ”

Fujiwara showed the obsidian on his hand and sneered: "At that time, we will prove it to them, and use the knowledge obtained here to prove who is the real strong, and no one can win the power that does not belong to their plane." ”

Hades didn't continue to pick him up, but looked at the city below and said softly, "Can we really go back?"

"Hasn't she already solved the secrets of this stone city?"

"But just now, Samusa's body made me feel some bad breath, as if something was changing......"

"It's that you're thinking too much. Fujiwara patted Hades on the shoulder and walked to the stairs leading to the roof, "It's the first time I've talked to someone who doesn't fit in with me for so long, and overall it feels pretty good. I've gone up there to inspect it, and it looks like you won't be able to sleep for a while, so I'll leave it to you. ”

Watching Fujiwara's figure disappear, Hades was also a little relieved.

"It's almost time, let's call Sakisa. After about an hour or so in the hallway, it was late at night, and he turned around and walked into the room and woke up Saki Saki Sa, who was asleep.

"Is it already half past eleven?" Samusa woke up sleepily and looked at the starry sky outside the window.

After sobering up, Samuzo connected to Yang Xiaokai's obsidian.

"Xiaokai, are you guys out?"

"Well, not a second is bad...... his voice was very weak and listless.

"Are you tired, go get some sleep, I know you've had a long two days there. ”

"Sister Sakisa, is there no problem with the time now?"

"Well, I think it's completely adjusted back. ”

Yang Xiaokai's side was quiet for a few seconds, and then a hoarse voice came: "I think we should not go to the two black towers in front, let's go directly to the fourth hive, otherwise if we run into something again......"

"No, the people who have probably been to the Black Tower of the Fifth Hive have probably been before, and if they don't go there, the time in Stone City will still not be back on track. If that's right, when the time in Stone City is fully calibrated, the exit in the middle will be unlocked. ”

"Saki Sasa-san, you said before that the exit would be closed, how much time is left now?"
