After some discussion with Tang Anshu, Wei Chiran, who returned to the mansion, decided to live separately, only in this way could the two of them get more information separately. However, they first had to sort out how many parallel worlds this edifice was intertwined with, and if it was related to all ten parallel worlds, could this edifice be a gateway to other worlds?

Tang Anshu drew the figure of the building on the paper, marked the numbers 1 to 10 next to it, and then said, "This is the worst case. ”

Wei Chiran looked at the figure: "You mean, the building we are in belongs to the No. 1 parallel world, but because of the relationship between yin and yang, all the buildings of the other nine parallel worlds are integrated?" ”

Tang Anshu shook his head: "It's not accurate for you to say this, according to our previous experience and Zhan Tianya's intelligence, it should be the apartment building that has this situation, so it should be all parts of the apartment building, maybe the rooms of each resident are integrated by the apartment building rooms of 10 parallel worlds, and they are constantly changing, I'll give you an example, 1404 This room, today we go to maybe the No. 1 parallel world, and it will become the No. 2 parallel world in an hour, will there be any rules in this?" ”

Wei Chi disagreed: "No, if the rooms will change, then why haven't the 1108 and 1208 where the two of us live have not changed?" ”

Tang Anshu looked at Wei Chiran: "This is the reason why Zhan Tianya came to us, although he didn't say it explicitly, but I think it should be due to two points, first, the two of us are celestials, and celestials may not be strongly affected by the yin and yang cracks, and second, we are the No. 2 parallel world and came to the No. 1 parallel world." ”

Wei Chiran recalled carefully: "So, how do you explain Ye Xiaowan's matter?" You see that Ye Xiaowan is 17 years old, and the posthumous photo of Ye Xiaowan you see in room 1404 is obviously seven or eight years older than the one he saw, so it looks more like a disorder of time and space, rather than a disorder of space? ”

Tang Anshu wrote down two Ye Xiaowan's names on the paper: "The first is 17-year-old Ye Xiaowan, that is, the one I saw, she provided a very important clue, that is, she knew a security guard named Li Jiaping, and the second is Ye Xiaowan, who is about 25 years old, that is, the flower cat girl you saw, when she committed suicide, the security guard she witnessed was called Zhang Yuan." ”

Wei Chi Ran understood: "You mean, we should start with security guards?" Don't be so deliberate to squat, because we haven't found the law of spatial change yet? However, Zhan Tianya said that it is actually the apartments of the building that are disturbed, that is, above the 10th floor, 11th to 20th floors to be exact, but why are the security guards we see in the underground parking lot also changing? ”

Tang Anshu nodded slightly, he also thought of this question, but the detection data of the Ministry of Ancient Science should not be wrong, so where should the problem be? Why is it that only the upper apartments should have changed, but the security guards in the parking lot are also changing, indicating that the space in the parking lot is also changing, is it because of the influence of the upper apartments, so the lower apartments have also changed?

"Li Jiaping, Zhang Yuan, we have to remember these two names," Wei Chiran wrote on the paper, "This is the only clue at the moment." ”

Tang Anshu nodded and said: "According to Zhan Tianya's statement, in fact, in the No. 1 parallel world, the people in the apartment building of the building have disappeared, originally he wanted to completely close the building, but such a big thing will cause social panic, and even have a chain reaction, which will have an impact all over the world, so under the premise of last resort, he can only take the method of infiltration to investigate, and as a result, all the agents sent are also missing, we can define this disappearance as lost." ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Lost in the chaotic space?" ”

Tang Anshu nodded: "Yes, maybe those agents are still in this building, but they are not in the same space as us." ”

Wei Chi got up and said, "Why don't we do an experiment based on room 1404?" ”

Tang Anshu looked at him and asked, "How to do it?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "We have documents in our hands, we can call ourselves policemen, and then go to room 1404 to ask, and find an excuse at will, so as to determine the information of the residents living in room 1404, the age of the residents, and then record them one by one and include them in the table, so as to distinguish room 1404 in different parallel worlds, so that we can also determine how many other parallel worlds there are?" Is there a total of ten? ”

Tang Anshu nodded in agreement: "This is a good way, let's go, let's go now." ”

The two took the elevator and came directly to room 1404, and after knocking on the door, they didn't expect that it was still Ye Xiaowan's mother who opened the door, but her mother was obviously younger than what Tang Anshu saw last time, and she was not so haggard, and she could judge from her eyes that she didn't know Tang Anshu.

Tang Anshu and Wei Chi took out their documents and said that they were police officers and wanted to investigate some user information.

Xiaowan's mother was very vigilant, carefully looked at the documents of the two, and finally did not let them enter the house, but said that she could not enter without a search warrant, and she could answer questions at the door.

Xiaowan's mother's vigilance exceeded the imagination of the two, Tang Anshu decided not to force into the house, but asked about the family situation at the door, and learned that Ye Xiaowan's mother's surname is Li, her full name is Li Lan, she has done a lot of work, and now she is a supervisor in a cleaning company, and her daughter is called Ye Xiaowan, who is 22 years old and is still in college, because she lives in the university, so she will not be at home except for holidays. Ye Xiaowan's father also died of illness when she was 10 years old, so it was Li Lan who worked hard to pull Ye Xiaowan to grow up.

After the questioning, Li Lan asked again: "Why are you asking this?" Is something wrong? ”

Wei Chiran just said: "It's just a routine investigation, nothing else, thank you for your cooperation." ”

Li Lan nodded slightly, then closed the door, the two waited in the elevator room for more than an hour, and decided to knock on the door again to see if there was any change, but I didn't expect that it was Li Lan who opened the door, and it was Li Lan before, because after she opened the door, she asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Tang Anshu lied and asked Li Lan if she had heard a woman crying the night before? Li Lan claimed no, and the two turned to leave.

Returning to the elevator room again, Wei Chiran raised his hand to look at his watch: "Is it not enough time, why hasn't the room changed?" ”

Tang Anshu thought for a while: "Maybe we can go back and rest first in the evening, but the information we got this time is very important." ”

The two returned to Tang Anshu's room and waited until eight o'clock in the evening, then took the elevator up and knocked on the door of room 1404, who knew that it was Ye Xiaowan who opened the door this time, and it was Ye Xiaowan when she was 17 years old.

Ye Xiaowan still had tears stained, obviously just cried, but after seeing Tang Anshu, she immediately became excited and called her mother: "He is the private detective I said, and I am at his house during the day." ”

What the!? Obviously, three days ago, Ye Xiaowan asked herself to come to her home to testify. Tang Anshu was stunned at the door, it seemed that this building was not only disordered in space, but also had problems in time and space.

Li Lan came out when he heard the sound and looked at Tang Anshu and Wei Chiran vigilantly, Tang Anshu immediately took out his ID: "I am actually a policeman." ”

Li Lan just glanced at the documents, and then said respectfully: "Sorry for the trouble, come in and have a cup of tea." ”

Tang Anshu and Wei couldn't ask for it, and immediately entered the house, Ye Xiaowan became extremely happy at this time, and kept rolling her eyes at her mother, which meant that she was not lying. When her mother went to make tea, Ye Xiaowan asked Tang Anshu in a low voice: "You turned out to be a policeman, are you here to handle any case?" Also pretend to be a private detective. ”

Tang Anshu asked, "Xiaowan, how high are you now?" ”

Ye Xiaowan said: "High one." ”

Tang Anshu asked again: "What year did you enter high school?" ”

Ye Xiaowan replied: "This year, I'm only a freshman in high school." ”

Wei Chiran couldn't help but ask directly: "What year is this year?" ”

Ye Xiaowan looked at Wei Chiran like a neuropathy: "In 2009, why do you ask this?" ”

2009!? 10 years ago? Wei Chiran and Tang Anshu glanced at each other, they were now sitting in apartment No. 1404 10 years ago, and what they saw was Ye Xiaowan and Li Lan 10 years ago.

So, 8 years later, what is the reason for Ye Xiaowan's suicide? Tang Anshu didn't understand, but vaguely felt that this matter seemed to have something to do with her mother.

10 years ago, Li Lan and Tang Anshu saw two people before, this Li Lan is completely a housewife, not too vigilant, kind, will not ask questions, almost all of them are listening to them quietly, so that the atmosphere becomes a little awkward.

Tang Anshu gave Wei Chiran a look, and Wei Chiran understood, called Li Lan aside, and asked some questions he had made up.

Tang Anshu asked Ye Xiaowan: "Xiaowan, when will the female ghost you said you saw appear?" ”

Ye Xiaowan nervously glanced at the direction where her mother was: "I don't know, she will appear when she wants to come out to find me, and when she doesn't want to come out, I can't even call out, I don't know why." ”

Tang Anshu looked at Ye Xiaowan's eyes carefully, although this girl was rebellious, she was very simple.

It was at this moment that Tang Anshu suddenly decided to be nosy, he wanted to prevent Ye Xiaowan from committing suicide, and wanted to find out the reason behind Ye Xiaowan's suicide.

Li Lan warmly invited Wei Chiran and Tang Anshu to leave after eating, but the two politely refused, after the two left, they still repeated the old tricks, and waited for a while to knock on the door again, but it was Ye Xiaowan in 2009 who opened the door, in other words, they still didn't find the law of space and time change in this building.

After returning to the elevator room again, Wei Chiran sighed and said, "Go back and sort out the form, at least we have met Ye Xiaowan for two time periods now." ”

"No, 3 to be exact," Tang Anshu walked into the elevator and said, "The first is Ye Xiaowan in 2009, when she was 17 years old, and the security guard she knew was called Li Jiaping, and the second was Ye Xiaowan who you saw holding a flower cat, it should be a certain period before her death, according to your description, her approximate age should be 22 years old, and the third is Ye Xiaowan, who is 25 years old and dead, and it was a security guard named Zhang Yuan who found her jumping off the building to commit suicide, so we have seen Ye Xiaowan in the other three parallel worlds in this building." ”

Wei Chiran added: "And it's from different time periods. ”
