Chapter 39: Infinite 24 Hours: Ye Qingmian's Perspective (3)
Seeing his daughter and wife return home, Ye Qingmian breathed a sigh of relief, the ending may have actually been changed, right? Although the development of many things has continued the original trajectory, how can the impact of the butterfly dance effect be ignored? Ye Qingmian comforted himself, and his mood seemed to have become much better, but he still did not relax his vigilance, looking at the time, it was already 12 o'clock, thinking that his daughter had already slept.
But Ye Qingmian didn't dare to sleep, and when he thought of the corpse of his daughter near the hospital, the whole person seemed to fall into an ice cave. Time passed very slowly in the dark, the night was extremely quiet, and Ye Qing, who was lonely at the door of the house, finally fell asleep on the side unconsciously. When he suddenly woke up, he found that it had been half an hour since he last looked at his watch, and it was now 2 o'clock in the morning, that is, Ye Qingmian had fallen asleep for half an hour between 1:30 and 2 o'clock in the morning. Secretly scolded himself, Ye Qingmian cheered up again, he had already made up his mind, he couldn't let his daughter leave tonight no matter what, if he really came out, then he would fight hard to let Huazhi have two husbands, and he would also stop this tragedy.
Sleepiness and exhaustion swept through Ye Qingmian's body, and in order to keep this night, Ye Qingmian began to smoke one after another. The fire in the dark night burned not only smoke, but also the hope of Ye Qingsleep.
Four o'clock in the morning, that is, the time when Ye Qingmian received the information of Ye Li's death. Watching the time pass, Ye Qingmian finally breathed a sigh of relief, her daughter should be safe. But where will they go? There are wives and daughters in this world, but their husbands and fathers are not themselves, but the second self that belongs to this time and space. Ye Qingmian was confused, her daughter was safe, but she lost her direction. Why the hell are you here, and how can I go back?
It's getting brighter, it stands to reason that the second self should come back after recording the supply at four o'clock in the morning, why hasn't he arrived home yet? Ye Qingmian was a little puzzled, but he didn't care too much. Get up and prepare to leave here, think about the meaning of your existence, whether you want to tell everyone what happened to you, and wait for the second self to come back in case you are unprepared, it is not easy to explain, after all, you haven't sorted out everything before, and it is not the most appropriate time.
Ye Qingmian left, and found his second self walking in the direction of home with a sad face. Ye Qingmian frowned, faintly had a bad premonition, and didn't think too much, Ye Qingmian quietly followed behind the second self. didn't go far, the second self suddenly stopped, Ye Qingmian followed his gaze, and a monstrous wave was set off in his heart.
I saw that the third self just drove back to the house and kicked away several cigarette butts he left on the ground at the door last night, Ye Qingmian looked at his watch again, it was still 8 o'clock in the morning on July 31, and soon after, the third one drove to school with his daughter.
The cycle continues, and the time still hasn't advanced to August 1st, Ye Qingmian only feels like falling into the abyss at this moment, he has never had such fear in this life, this is an endless day, an infinite 24 hours, do you want to go on here for infinite reincarnation?
Ye Qingmian's hands were trembling, everything at this time was beyond his cognition, the original worldview was crushed, if time was a line, then the 24-hour timeline from 8 a.m. on July 31 to 8 a.m. on August 1 was bent into a circle that was connected from end to end. However, different spaces overlap at a certain point, causing multiple spaces to enter the same world.
The second self will come back at this time, why is it sad, is it just like what I experienced before, my daughter died? Thinking of staying outside, Ye Qingmian suddenly had a spirit, no, he wasn't awake the whole time, he fell asleep for half an hour during the period, could it be that what happened in those half an hour, did his daughter leave the house again? Ye Qingmian became more and more confused and irritable.
Seeing the second self taking a taxi to keep up with the third self, Ye Qingmian knew that the second self must have been to prevent the car accident, but was it useful? No, it was precisely because of his actions that the car accident would be caused. Putting aside all his thoughts, Ye Qingmian also quickly got into a taxi, and under the constant urging along the way, he finally arrived at the school before the second self and the third self arrived.
Ye Qingmian wants to stop the second self from stopping the car, so that the second self's actions will not cause a car accident, then everything should change after that, Ye Qingmian decided to have a showdown with the second self and tell him everything.
Ye Qingmian saw that the third self was already about to stop, and the taxi carrying the second self also came into sight. Ye Qingmian made up his mind to wait for the second self to get out of the car, so he hugged him to death, and when his daughter entered the school safely, everything would be over.
Just as Ye Qingmian was preparing to act, he accidentally saw a face that he shouldn't have seen - a white spot, a white spot in a place that was also difficult to be noticed to observe the location of the upcoming accident.
He wasn't supposed to be in the car, on the phone, and... Ye Qingmian instinctively looked at the familiar place of the incident, the second self flew to the middle of the road, opened his arms to stop the car, the white car lost control after a piercing brake, and then Ye Li fell and hit his head on the stone platform in the retreat, and then the third self quickly ran over to hug her, the second himself hesitated for a moment and concentrated into the crowd and disappeared, and Bai Diandian came out of the car in a panic, first looked around the place where the second Ye Qingmian stopped the car, and then nervously trotted to the third Ye Qingmian's side.
This scene not only made Ye Qingmian feel stunned, but even the white dots hidden on the other side were a little shocked, from Ye Qingmian's perspective, you can clearly see the white dots of surprise and disbelief.
Ye Qingmian looked at Bai Dian in a daze, it turned out that he was not the only one who fell into this strange incident. In these infinite 24 hours, the protagonist turned out to be more than one person, and Bai Dian was one of them.
So, who are the people involved in this infinite 24 hours? What is the connection between these people? This is the first perfect closed space-time of the 24-hour end-to-end, and only by finding a point of connection between time and space can we unravel the cycle and leave this seemingly inextricable 24 hours. Ye Qingmian decided to go to the white dot, the white dot that was hidden on the other side, thinking that if he was also caught in a loop, Ye Qingmian at this time also urgently needed to communicate.
Ye Qingmian sneakily bypassed the scene of the accident, and when he walked to the hiding place of Fang Cai Baidian, he found that the person was gone. But Ye Qingmian quickly figured it out, and according to his guess, the white dot would inevitably appear in the hospital, so he decided to go to the hospital first. This time, Ye Qingmian decided not to interfere with the second self again, and at the same time, he wanted to find out what happened during the period when his daughter disappeared when he followed his daughter who had escaped.
The second self quietly followed the third self, Ye Qingmian was no longer interested in continuing to observe the two selves in the dark, because he was so clear about what happened next, and even every word of the doctor's instructions he was about to repeat. A person wanders around the hospital frowning, and doesn't seem to find any trace of that white spot, he didn't choose to come to the hospital, so as a person who knows that he is stuck in a loop, what is he doing at the moment?
Just when Ye Qingmian's brain was thinking quickly, a familiar figure passed not far ahead, it was his wife Huazhi, calculating the time, his wife should have arrived.
But at this time, Hua Zhi's face did not have the slightest nervousness about her daughter, and she was so flat that she was even a little numb and indifferent. Ye Qingmian almost wondered if this person was a flower branch, so he laughed at himself with some confusion and didn't follow. At this time, outside Ye Qingmian's sight, another flower branch was in a hurry, running into the hospital with an anxious face, and the look full of worry between his eyebrows was completely different from the flower branch that Ye Qingmian saw.
Ye Qingmian didn't plan to change anything, since he missed the opportunity to change the beginning because he saw the white dot just now, let's change the ending, spent the day chaotically, and when night fell, Ye Qingmian's eyes lit up.
Ye Qingmian originally wanted to wait for the rabbit where his daughter's body was found, but he was worried that there would be no way to save his daughter by then, so he finally decided to go home with the second self after the third self found his daughter. I think the only time my daughter left the house and didn't let herself find out, it should be the half hour from 1:30 to 2 o'clock in the morning when she fell asleep last night. If I am not mistaken, the second self will still fall asleep at that time, and as long as I insist on seeing that half an hour, I will seize the opportunity.
Ye Qingmian was actually very confused, between 1:30 and 2 o'clock in the morning, her daughter should have gone to bed, but why did she choose to leave the house? Is it because she heard that she and Huazhi were about to divorce, and she was in a bad mood and planned to run away from home? Maybe when she stopped Ye Li at night, she would know the answer.
Ye Qingmian hid behind the bushes not far away, looking at the second self sitting at the door of the house with firm eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little sad, this world doesn't belong to him anymore, and the real master, the third self, doesn't know what he will experience after tomorrow. Ye Qingmian's attention began to concentrate continuously, because the time had gradually reached half past one in the morning, which was the second time when he was about to fall asleep, and something should happen in the next half hour. Soon, the second self fell asleep because he was too tired, and a figure in the distance walked slowly, and when Ye Qingmian looked down on his face, the nerves that he thought were numb were shocked again, it was another self.
