"That's ......"

Lin Shuo's gaze slowly swept over the surrounding scenery and muttered, "2020? ”

Behind him was a vast white fog that could not be seen at a glance, obviously the 1-01 forbidden area where Subei City was located, completely shrouded in the mysterious fog.

Instead of a road, there is a wide cement clearing, the gray-white ground looks like it should be some years old, and a semi-circular barbed wire wall can be seen not far away, enclosing the open space in the vicinity, and surveillance cameras can be seen near the barbed wire.

At this time, a monitoring probe in the distance was aimed in this direction, and a female voice through the megaphone suddenly sounded:

"Welcome back, No.961 Tinder, Ms. Tong Momo, please wait where you are, and there will be relevant personnel to answer in ten minutes."

Immediately, there was peace.

"Wait, someone will be coming from the surveillance base soon."

Tong Momo glanced at Ning Yi's corpse on the ground next to him, the shroud was obviously left in the forbidden area.

Lin Shuo didn't speak, staring at the autumn sun in the sky, and then slowly closed his eyes, as if feeling the cool and pleasant autumn wind and temperature.

"How?" Tong Momo asked with interest, "How do you feel?" ”

"How can it feel?"

Lin Shuo opened his eyes, shook his head and said, "That's all I need to think about. ”

"What?" Tong Momo said curiously.

Lin Shuo turned his head and glanced at her, but didn't speak, suddenly reached out and pinched her chin, rubbed his thumb lightly against her lips, and pinched her cheek, making her open her mouth.

"Dry ...... What are you doing? ”

Tong Momo's fair and pink face flushed with a touch of crimson, and she quickly slapped off his palm and looked at him with disgust.

Lin Shuo didn't care, just looked at the thumb that he had touched her lips just now, and said softly: "You just ate a mouthful of oil, but now there is nothing left, and you can't see it on your teeth." ”

Tong Momo nodded and said, "Yes, didn't I say that?" With the exception of fire thieves and objects with temporal properties, no other objects, dead or alive, can enter the forbidden area. ”

"And what did you eat in your stomach?" Lin Shuo asked, "Is it still there?" ”

Tong Momo was slightly stunned, touched her belly, and said, "Uh...... It doesn't seem to be there. ”

"Then after you eat the food, is the energy that is converted after digestion still there?" Lin Shuo asked.

"It should ...... It's still there. Tong Momo thought for a while and said, "Originally, after a big battle in the morning, I didn't have much strength, but after eating, I was very energetic, and now I am too." ”

"Really?"

Lin Shuo narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtful.

"What's wrong?" Tong Momo wondered.

"Don't you think it's strange?"

Lin Shuo looked up at the clear sky and said, "It's late at night in the forbidden area, but it's daytime outside the forbidden area, where do you think the sunlight in the forbidden area comes from?" Could it be that the sunlight outside the exclusion zone pierces through the fog? Since the time inside and outside the forbidden area is not synchronized, if the source of sunlight is outside the forbidden area, the time flow rate is 600 times, and the sunlight outside the forbidden area for half a day should last for 300 days in the forbidden area. ”

"yes." Tong Momo was also a little confused.

Lin Shuo said: "When we came out, the temperature at night in Subei City was 7 degrees Celsius, and here it was about 20 degrees, and the temperature inside and outside the forbidden area was different, so where did the night wind in the forbidden area come from?" ”

Tong Momo's brain hurt a little, and she said helplessly: "This ...... I'm ancient, I've only lived in modern times for a few years, I'm just starting high school, how do I know? ”

Lin Shuo showed a hint of a smile and said, "I guessed a little. ”

"You don't have to explain it to me." Tong Momo hurriedly waved her hand and said, "These things, you should talk to those scientific researchers who specialize in studying the forbidden area, I am illiterate." ”

Lin Shuo smiled dumbly, and then said softly: "However, I do have some things that I need to confirm first. ”

……

Five minutes later.

Not far away, a group of soldiers with two columns of loaded guns and ammunition suddenly walked on the high barbed wire wall, and in the middle of the two columns of soldiers was a man and a woman.

The man was about thirty years old, dressed in a navy blue suit, his face was as angular as a knife and an axe, his bronzed skin looked like a long time exposed to the wind and sun, and he walked with his head held high and his steps were powerful, more like a sergeant than the soldiers around him.

The woman is in her twenties, dressed in gray professional clothes, with a pair of glasses on her fair melon seed face, looking intellectually mature, and at first glance it is a secretarial job.

When the two columns of soldiers and a man and a woman in the middle came to the front, Tong Momo immediately stepped forward and took the initiative to speak: "Colonel Luo, I have completed the task, please check." ”

"Welcome back, thank you, Ms. Tong Momo."

The man, 'Colonel Luo', nodded slightly, first glanced at Lin Shuo, and then looked at Ning Yi's corpse on the ground.

When he saw Ning Yi's corpse, which had completely turned into a monster, he squinted his eyes slightly, and then glanced at Lin Shuo again, and then ordered the soldiers next to him: "Put it away." ”

Immediately, two soldiers came out and carefully packed Ning Yi's body into a box.

The professional-dressed woman who looked like a secretary looked at Lin Shuo and couldn't help asking, "Ms. Tong, is this ......?"

'He's got a talent for time, I found it in the 1-01 box. Tong Momo said with a smile: "Secretary Yang, according to the rules, to discover the talents of fire thieves, I should have a lot of contribution points to reward, right?" ”

"If you can become a fire stealer, of course you have a contribution value." The professional-dressed woman known as 'Secretary Yang' nodded.

"That's good." Tong Momo smiled happily.

Senior Colonel Luo looked at Lin Shuo and asked, "I don't know what to call it?" ”

"Lin Shuo." Lin Shuo said.

"I have a question, and I would like to ask Mr. Lin to answer it."

Senior Colonel Luo looked at him with deep eyes and said, "Mr. Lin, 1-01 Forbidden Zone, Subei City is in a time loop, you should know it now, right?" ”

"Yes." Lin Shuo nodded slightly.

"After the fog blockaded Subei City, didn't you think about leaving Subei City?" Senior Colonel Luo asked.

"I've thought about it." Lin Shuo said honestly, "But I can't get out." ”

"Because his abilities are not stable." Tong Momo opened his mouth to explain: "In the 1-01 forbidden area, time keeps going back, only one day, his ability continues to awaken, and he has never been able to stabilize, until he ran into me this time, helped me kill the mission target, and absorbed the sand of time to stabilize." ”

Senior Colonel Luo was silent for a moment, but said, "Ms. Tong Momo, maybe you don't know that it took about twenty minutes from the time you entered the 1-01 forbidden area to the time you came out. ”

"What?" Tong Momo was stunned.

Secretary Yang also spoke: "To be precise, it's 1152 seconds, the time flow speed in the 1-01 restricted area is 600 times that of the outside world, and the internal restarts every 24 hours, that is to say, every 144 seconds from the outside world, the internal cycle will be repeated, and you have experienced a total of eight time loops in the 1-01 restricted area." ”

"Eight cycles?" Tong Momo couldn't help but be a little stunned, and turned her head to look at Lin Shuo.

Senior Colonel Luo frowned slightly, and said: "Ms. Tong, we all thought that your mission had failed and you were trapped in the 1-01 restricted area, and we wanted to notify the other fire thieves to take you out, but we didn't expect that after eight cycles, you came out by yourself, please explain, what is going on?" ”

Secretary Yang also said: "It stands to reason that once the fire thief enters the 1-01 restricted area and does not come out before the time restarts, he will fall into an infinite loop and be trapped in it, like an infinite replay of the film, without external intervention, an inherent loop will be formed in the restricted area." ”

"This ......"

Tong Momo was also a little confused.

She also probably understood what the situation was, the 1-01 exclusion zone was like a movie, she suddenly mixed in and became an actress, but at the end of the movie, she couldn't leave the movie, so the movie was replayed, and it was still the same ending.

It stands to reason that if there is no other external intervention, this situation will continue in an infinite loop, because everything that happens in the film is part of the film.

But...... After she went through eight cycles, she came out inexplicably!

So, there must be something else that has changed, breaking the cycle!

"Lin Shuo?" Tong Momo couldn't help but look at Lin Shuo, "Do you know why?" ”

Lin Shuo met the eyes of several people, and said with a flat face: "Don't guess, it was indeed me who broke the cycle." ”

He looked at Senior Colonel Luo again and asked directly, "Are you the supreme person in charge of this supervision base?" ”
