From the smile on his face, I was sure that he must have noticed something wrong. But after he smiled, his expression suddenly became gray again, and his eyes gradually deepened.

I was nervous, what the hell did he find?

I couldn't help my curiosity and stepped up to him, shoulder to shoulder.

"Diligence ......"

However, before I could say anything, he jerked up his hand and blocked my mouth. He first turned his head and glanced at Ali behind us with a furrowed brow.

At this time, Ali was holding a water bottle, humming a little song merrily, completely ignoring us, and concentrating on watering the yellowed flowers.

Diligent slowly leaned into my ear and whispered to me.

"This is not the place to talk. ”

"What's wrong?" I asked, confused.

Instead of giving me a definitive answer, he grabbed my arm with one hand and pulled me back into the house. After making sure Ali wouldn't hear our conversation, he handed me the tablet and said with a sad face.

"Joan, look at the data. ”

"I ......"

I stared at the dense array of numbers and characters on the screen, and for a moment, I felt like I was being pushed into a ferocious vortex, and my vision immediately turned upside down. I rubbed my eyes, but still handed the tablet back to Diligent.

"What are these? I don't understand ...... at all."

"Oh, you don't know much about these things. ”

Diligent smiled awkwardly, then reached out and tapped a little on the screen. I saw that the bunch of numbers and characters on the screen gradually became condensed, and some key information was clearly marked.

At this point, I barely understood.

It reads, Usage Data: [Zero].

I was stunned, and my brow furrowed unconsciously. And when Diligent saw that I finally understood, the expression on his face changed from embarrassed to relieved.

"That's not right!" I said in surprise, "Ah Li didn't just say that they need to grow vegetables every day, so they must use that machine!"

"Looks like you're thinking about it. Diligence said with a smile.

"But why? Diligence, you know?"

"Joan, that's an easy question, but first you have to know two things. ”

I pricked up my ears and listened earnestly. And Diligence was like a storyteller, sitting on a chair, holding a tablet in his hand, shaking his head slightly and saying.

"The first thing is that as long as the machinery here has been used, it will definitely leave usage data. The data in the background cannot be modified and erased, no one can do it, and neither can laziness. And the other thing is that it's not just the greenhouse one machine, all the machines here have this problem. ”

After Diligent finished speaking, he smiled and stared at me intently. I knew what he meant by this look, and he told me the results and conditions of the matter, just to let me use my brain and figure out the reason for this matter myself.

I pondered for a moment, arguing with myself over and over again in my mind. After coming up with a relatively safe answer, he dared to answer weakly.

"If there is no usage data, it means that none of these smart machines have been used. Let's say, it was installed at home after Ali and Ahri had an accident. Because if they're still alive, they're going to use it. But why did they install it when they weren't at home...... It's because ......"

"If you can't think of it, let me tell you. ”

Diligent can't wait to announce it

Answer, but I have thought about it, so I can't let him waste my previous credit.

"No, I'm almost there! That's because ...... Somebody wants to replace the old machine, and he wants to hide something! But if he only replaces one machine, it is very noticeable, so he replaces all the machinery in the room!"

"Hmm...... You're pretty smart!" Diligent nodded and gave me a thumbs up.

"Don't praise me, I just followed what you said and thought of it. But what is the reason for being diligent, does the data say? Is that person just lazy?"

"I'm not sure about this, but everything in this room that can be recorded has been replaced, so I can't know the cause of the incident. It's just that this also confirms one thing. ”

"Whoever can do everything can replace everything, if not you, can only be lazy!" I replied.

"Yes, that's it. Now it is certain that the deaths of Ali and Ahri are inseparable from laziness. ”

At that moment, the door was slammed and there was a loud bang. Startled, Diligent and I reflexively raised our guns and aimed them at the door.

But when I looked closely, I saw that the man was not an enemy, but Ali, who had been watering flowers in the yard. He held the vase in one hand and the other at his waist, and glanced at us with a shocked and panicked expression.

"What did you just say? What do you mean, our death is inseparable from laziness?!"

"Ali, calm down. ”

"I can't calm down, little girl, tell me what the hell is going on?"

"I ......"

I was in a dilemma, and I didn't know whether to tell the whole story. If it is said, Ali and Ahri are likely to be unable to withstand it. If he didn't say it, Ali would definitely ask to the end.

I secretly told myself that I would listen to fewer secrets in the future, so that I would be able to bear less invisible pressure.

Suddenly, Ali's body twisted and became very graceful. She reached out, grabbed my wrist tightly, and spoke to me in a pleading tone.

"Tell us, little girl. What has that lazy done to us? Our flesh...... Is it still there?"

"Ahri, do you really want to listen?"

"Of course, we'd love to know. ”

"Alright then......"

At this time, the diligent eyes become a little hollow. Ahri, on the other hand, kept her eyes wide open, never taking her eyes off me.

The atmosphere became very gloomy for a moment, and I took a deep breath before I pieced together everything I could say. At the moment of speaking, I sighed at the same time as diligence, but I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed in my heart.

However, these things were not easy for Ali and Ahri, or even for Gu Chengzi. On the contrary, their expressions were very sad, but the three of them took turns to change bodies, and their expressions were all twisted together.

It's ugly, but it's also very distressing.

"Ali, Ahri, do you remember......

"Don't ask. Diligence stopped me again, and he slowly lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Let them slow down for a while." ”

I wanted to ask them if they remembered the events of that day, but when I thought about it, then the crucial memories would definitely be erased by laziness. Asking this question will not only fail to get an answer, but will also make them more stimulated.

It seems that diligence has saved my life again.

So, the three of us settled motionlessly

For a while, even the air was very still.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly the sound of broken porcelain struck, waking us all up. Ali bent down in a panic and picked up the ceramic shard in great pain, his whole body trembling violently.

The broken porcelain on the ground, but his favorite water bottle. Just now, in a flash, the water bottle broke out of his hand, and no one could save it.

The moment he placed the fragment in front of him, his body writhed violently again, and his hand was lowered again.

"Shattered...... It's broken. Ahri said in frustration, "There are some things that I can't go back to." ”

"Ahri, don't think so. When we solve the laziness, we will definitely find a way to solve the ......."

"What else is there to solve...... Little girl, listen to you, that was seven years ago. It's been seven years......"

Ahri...... There will be a way......"

I crouched down in front of her and stroked her shoulders with both hands, hoping it would make her feel better. But at this moment, she turned around suddenly, and I don't know who came out, and my hand was suddenly retracted.

"Joan?" was Gu Chengzi's voice.

"Why did you get out?"

"I ...... I've been wondering if Ali and Ahri don't have physical bodies, then they have to be in my body all the time...... Then you ......" he choked up, shook his head again, and smiled wryly, "It's okay...... So be it......"

As soon as I heard him say this, my heart suddenly chuckled, as if someone had stepped on it hard, and it was very uncomfortable. I hurriedly stood beside him and comforted him.

"Gu Chengzi, don't be discouraged first, there must be a way to be diligent. Diligence, right?"

When I said this, Diligent pouted, his brows fluttered slightly, and then he replied hesitantly.

"Theoretically, there will be a way. But ...... "This time, I glared at it suddenly." He immediately changed his expression of affirmation, changed his tone and said, "It must be solved!"

Gu Chengzi didn't speak, only a smile and a complicated look on his face. I looked him straight in the eye, and it was strange that I couldn't read what was going on in his mind at this moment.

His body twisted again, and this time it was Ali who was replaced. He stared at the porcelain shard in his hand, and his expression suddenly became very painful and sad.

"My favorite water bottle! That's it!"

Maybe it's because the frequency of their conversion is so fast, for a while, I almost didn't react, and I was about to schizophrenia.

"I said, how many of you, can you designate someone to come out and speak?

"Little girl, you can't blame us ......for this! Everyone's emotions are not good! So!, it's not well controlled! If you want to blame it, you should blame that lazy person, he is the one who has harmed us like this!"

As soon as Ali finished speaking, Diligent bounced up from his seat, and his hands were closed, and his face was excited and excited.

"Diligent, what's wrong with you?"

"I have thought of a clever plan! I know this man best! Since he has taken such great pains to conceal it, he must have been terribly afraid of it!"

"What do you want to do?"

"Brother Ali, may I ask, do you have any photos of you in the house?"

"Photos?" Brother Ali asked in surprise, "Ahri, do we have any photos in our house?"

He twisted and replaced himself with Ahri. Ahri tilted his head from side to side, thought for a while, and then said.

"Yes, there are many, many of them!"
