"In case you don't believe it, I've been trapped on July 4, 2074 for five years. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Guo Ming looked at Gu Fan who was sitting in front of him and said with a wry smile.

Gu Fan and Guo Ming were sitting in the maid café where business was very cold in the morning, and two cups of iced coffee were quietly placed on the table shared by the two of them, and there was a heart shape decorated with cream on the surface of the coffee.

Gu Fan held a small spoon at this time and kept stirring the coffee in front of him, and said to Guo Ming: "In fact, the first time I met you, I already had doubts about this. ”

"Why? Yesterday must have been the first day you started the cycle. Guo Ming was a little puzzled and asked Gu Fan.

"Do you remember what you said yesterday?"

"I'm sorry, if I'm not mistaken, I've never seen you." Guo Ming repeated what he said yesterday, and then asked, "With just this sentence, can you be sure that I am trapped in one day?" ”

"Of course it can't be, I just had this conjecture at the time," Gu Fan paused, and continued: "The reason why I have such absurd thoughts is because your words are illogical, usually when a person wants to communicate with strangers, he will start with 'I seem to have seen you somewhere', but obviously, you did the opposite." From your words, I can sense that 'I don't seem to have seen you' is an abnormal phenomenon in your worldview. It's pretty strange, is it a strange thing to meet someone you've never met before in a city so big? If you really think it's weird, then a reasonable explanation is that you know everyone in the city. ”、

"Oh, that's impossible, now you know I've lived in the city for five years, but I've only gotten to know a small part of the people in the city so far." Guo Ming said with a smile, "Obviously, your inference is wrong. ”

"Yes, I quickly dismissed this inference. A person's ability to remember is limited, and it is impossible for a normal person to remember what everyone looks like in a city of hundreds of thousands or even millions, let alone correspond to the same number of names. Gu Fan took a sip of cold coffee and continued: "I mean, it's impossible to even 'know' so many people, let alone 'get acquainted', so I changed my perspective to come to the current conclusion." ”

"That is, at seven o'clock in the morning on July 4, 2074, I 'shouldn't have been' at the intersection next to the coffee shop. To you, I am a 'non-existent person'. ”

Guo Ming was silent for a while, and then applauded, "Your logical reasoning ability is indeed very strong, that's right, due to some things, I have appeared at this crossroads at about seven o'clock in the morning for the last seven days, but in the first five days of July and four days, you did not exist." ”

"So, let's talk about yourself first," Gu Fan spread out his palms and stared at Guo Ming's eyes, "Why are you trapped in one day?" ”

Guo Ming lowered his head and thought for a while, as if he wanted to organize the language, "About five years ago, I just graduated from college and used this city as a base for my graduation trip, and nothing special seemed to happen at that time, I drank a lot of alcohol one night, and then after waking up the next day, the cycle began. At this time, Guo Ming looked at Gu Fan, "Did you also drink a lot of wine when your cycle began?" ”

"Of course not." Gu Fan denied it without thinking about it.

"Okay," Guo Ming spread his hands, "I thought I would soon find the real reason for the time loop." ”

"Maybe I'm here to help you get out of the loop, maybe not?" Gu Fan stretched his waist and said to Guo Ming: "I have always believed that everything has a cause and must have an effect, since you will be trapped in a day, then there must be a way to jump out of the cycle hidden in the dark." ”

[Main quest activated: Break out of the time loop.] 】

The main quest has appeared! After Gu Fan received the system prompt, his heart froze, and then his eyes became serious.

"Well, I still have a lot to ask you......."

Guo Ming raised his eyes and looked at Gu Fan, and shrugged his shoulders: "I know everything." ”

The two chatted in the coffee shop for more than three hours, and walked side by side on a somewhat deserted street after going out, in which Gu Fan seemed to have been bowing his head and pondering something, Guo Ming did not disturb him, but followed him unhurriedly.

"The world resets at 0:00 a.m. every day, and everything will be restored, including your physical condition, the belongings you got the previous day, and all you can keep is the memories of yesterday?" Gu Fan slowly moved his steps, and asked casually while thinking.

"That's it." Guo Ming nodded.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Gu Fan kept silent again, but his eyes drifted to the space backpack that only he could see, and in addition to the [Kitchen Knife with a Gap] brought over before the script, the second grid contained the [Steel Baseball Bat] that Gu Fan found yesterday!

"It seems that 'full reset' doesn't apply to the player's situation." Gu Fan thought silently in his heart.

"Hey, we're here." The two walked to a Western restaurant, Guo Ming immediately stopped, turned to Gu Fan and smiled, "The steak in this Western restaurant is delicious, I'll take you to taste it." ”

Hearing this, Gu Fan nodded, and there was some expectation in his heart. He was a little pleasantly surprised that the design of this game in terms of physical sensation was incomparable to any previous game, and the food he had tasted before was almost the same as in reality, and Gu Fan believed that in the near future, there would be countless foodies who would stay in this game just for food.

The two walked into the restaurant side by side, and immediately a well-dressed male waiter ushered them into their seats, accompanied by an old English classic song, Gu Fan and the two walked to a window position.

"John Lennon's [Imagine], a song from quite a long time ago." Gu Fan closed his eyes and seemed to be enjoying it.

"Well, I'm not very interested in antiques from the last century." When Guo Ming heard this, he hesitated, "The last time I came, they didn't put this one. ”

"Was this the last time you came at this time?" Gu Fan suddenly opened his eyes and asked a little nervously: "This is very unusual, it stands to reason that it should be exactly the same." ”

"No, it's possible." Guo Ming seemed a little indifferent, "I have experienced a similar 'butterfly effect' a few times before. Do you remember the first time we met? You weren't supposed to be there, but I'm not too surprised, because I've been in this situation before. ”

Gu Fan took a sip of the white wine that had just been poured and motioned for Guo Ming to speak carefully.

"In fact, I once had the 'butterfly effect' when I was circulating for almost a year. During that time, I learned guitar every day at a guitar training class near a hotel, and after noon after class, I would buy a cup noodle at the convenience store next door, and that was the time to buy it every day, and then something strange happened, one day I still went to the convenience store to buy cup noodles at that time as usual, but I saw someone in the convenience store that I had never met before! ”

"Like when we first met?" Gu Fan asked with interest.

"That's it." Guo Ming nodded and continued: "I still remember very clearly that it was a middle-aged man with a full beard, and he was buying cigarettes at the counter at that time. I was so excited that I went up and grabbed him by the shoulder and asked him where he was from and why I had never seen you with such a question. Thinking about it now, I was like a madman back then. ”

"Uh, the butterfly effect?"

"Yes, it took me a lot of time to figure out why this man was there. The problem was that in the morning, I did something different than usual. I threw the unused toothpaste from the hotel in the trash. ”

After listening to Guo Ming's narration, Gu Fan was a little dazed, he sat in his seat and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything to do with the appearance of the middle-aged man.

"You must be wondering why I threw away a tube of unused toothpaste that caused this middle-aged man to show up, right? And it was because no one could figure out the connection that it took me a long time to get a glimpse of the truth. Guo Ming had a dry mouth, took a sip of wine, and continued: "That day I threw the unused toothpaste into the trash, after I left the hotel, the cleaning staff who cleaned up the room cleaned up the trash can, and threw the garbage into the trash bin behind the corner of the hotel, and then a scavenging aunt passed through the trash can and turned over this tube of unused toothpaste, and the scavenging aunt was very happy, because most of the toothpaste was not used, and she could take it home and continue to use it. But because of the extra time in the bin, she didn't have time to catch the green light with ten seconds left in the next block. She had to wait for more than a minute to cross the street when the next green light came, but in this more than a minute, there was a middle-aged man who happened to be waiting for the green light here, and his only box of cigarettes accidentally fell out of his pocket, if in normal times, he would pick up the cigarettes that fell on the ground, but this time, his cigarettes happened to fall into the garbage truck of the scavenging aunt, which made him have to give up this box of cigarettes, but he happened to be a veteran smoker, so the only way was to buy another box at a nearby convenience store. And when he bought cigarettes......"

"I just got out of class."

"......" Gu Fan didn't know what to say for a while.

Just as Gu Fan was amazed by the powerful butterfly effect, there was a sudden commotion at the door of the western restaurant, and they heard a woman's cry, followed by two gunshots! Then two strong men with black hoods on their heads broke in through the doorway! One of the strong men, holding a fruit knife in his hand, turned around and locked the door of the restaurant, while the other held a pistol and yelled at the panicked diners and waiters: "Get down, it's time to rob!" ”
