Chapter 5: Wenhai's Speculation
Wen Hai paused and said, "I don't know." The answer was crisp.
"Don't know? You don't know? Huang Jun looked at him with a look that wanted to beat Wen Hai up.
"I really don't know, I just thought, it could be a boundary, but what exactly is the boundary, it's hard to say, you know, it could be the boundary of two planets, such as Earth and outer space, or it could be the boundary of two places, the column could be the boundary of two spaces, maybe there are others, I can't be sure" Wen Hai smiled bitterly.
"But you should always have a guess, right?" Huang Jun said impatiently.
"This, before there is evidence, I can't talk nonsense," Wen Hai said sneeringly. As a scientist, his rigorous work attitude is vividly reflected in him.
"This is not a courtroom, you don't need evidence, you just need to tell us what you think," Huang said.
Wen Hai hesitated, "So far, I haven't found any evidence, but, I guess, it may be the boundary of a space."
"The boundaries of space?" Shu Yao opened his mouth wide, although Wen Hai had said so much before and mentioned space, he never thought that Wen Hai would directly put forward such a point.
"That's right, I think it's very likely," Wen Hai smiled bitterly. He knew early on that as long as he said the guess in his heart, it would be such a reaction, but fortunately, Huang Jun behaved calmly, as if he had known that he was going to say this.
"What basis do you have?" Huang Jun was not as unbearable as Shu Yao, but he still worked hard.
"First of all, since I guess that it is a boundary, then, it is naturally not a boundary between planets, because whether it is in the village or outside the village, it is on the earth, not to another planet, of course, not to run to outer space," Wen Haidao.
"Yes, this inference is unlikely to be true," Huang Jun nodded.
"So, if it's not the boundary of the planet, what is it? Judging from our current knowledge, I can only guess that it is the boundary of space, because for now, we can still enter and exit freely from it without any influence, of course, there will be some accidents, but in general, it is not that once you enter, you will never be able to get out."
"In this way, there is some truth" Shu Yao nodded.
"If that's the boundary of a space, then, you mean?" Shu Yao reacted at this time.
"Yes, those who disappeared did not leave the village, but only went to another dimension through some inexplicable means," said Wen Haidao.
"So, if that's the case, what kind of space is it?" Huang Jundao.
"I don't know, I don't know, unless we also go inside, otherwise, I can't determine" Wen Hai spread his hands and smiled bitterly.
"Why can't it be the border of time? If it were time, it would have the same effect," Shu Yao said.
"Time? However, it is much more difficult to enter the boundary of time than to enter the boundary of space, is that really possible? Wen Hai couldn't believe it.
Huang Jun didn't speak, but looked at Shu Yao, naturally, they had experienced several things related to this, and they wouldn't feel any surprise at the things that were reversed in time, but for Wen Hai, it was not so easy to accept, and those experiences were not a pleasant experience, so Huang Jun and Shu Yao didn't want to mention it.
"Okay, it's useless to speculate here now, I think, only when we actually go there and see it on the spot, it's possible to find something," Huang Jun said.
"So, Mr. Huang agreed?" Wen Hai said in surprise.
"Of course, but before I do that, I want to ask a question," Huang said.
"Of course, of course, it should be, it should be" Wen Hai replied again and again, and it could be seen that he was very excited now.
"Is there any pattern in that, as you say, so many people enter the small village, some disappear and some do nothing? That is, what do those who disappeared have in common? Why do they disappear while others don't have a problem? Huang Jun thought for a while.
Wen Hai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This, I really don't know, I've also thought about this question, but there is no answer, or what is the connection, but I can't think of it"
Huang Jun looked at Wen Hai and did not speak. but the heart is contemplating.
"Do you think that those who disappeared are still alive?" After a while, Huang Jun asked a question as if talking to himself.
"Who knows, maybe alive, maybe not," Wen Hai said with a wry smile.
"My mom is here, my dad is too, they only come out at night," Xiao Jia said suddenly.
"Only out at night?" When Huang Jun heard this, he seemed to have grasped some key.
"Xiaojia, what did you say? You repeat? "Wen Haidao.
"I said my mom didn't die, they were all there, and they would come out at night," Xiao Jia said by biting her lip.
"Night, night, Xiao Jia, how do you know?" Huang Jun asked.
"What I saw, I went home, my mother kicked me out and told me to go, they didn't want me anymore" Xiao Jia said this, crying. Shu Yao hurriedly comforted softly.
"So, Xiao Jia has seen them? Xiao Jia, when did it happen? Why didn't you tell us? "Wen Haidao.
"Uncle, I don't want to lie to you, my mother told me, told me that I can't say anything, and kicked me out and didn't allow me to go to them, uncle, why do you say they don't let me go to them?" Xiao Jia said while crying.
"Xiao Jia, don't cry, you say, when did you meet them? How did you meet them," Shu Yao asked.
"It was the last time Uncle Ye took me back, I went home that night, and I saw my mother, and later, then my mother kicked me out, and after I came out, it was dawn, and then, and then Uncle Ye was gone," Xiao Jia said timidly.
"You mean, you did see your mother that night?" Huang Jundao.
"yes," Xiao Jia said.
"Why didn't you just say that?" Huang Jundao.
Xiao Jia looked at Huang Jun, then at Shu Yao, and didn't answer, but shrank his body behind Shu Yao, Huang Jun was angry and funny when he saw this.
"Look at your fierce appearance, scare people away," Shu Yao said helplessly.
"I don't want to do this either, but he didn't say such an important clue, and I was also in a hurry," Huang Jun said.
At this time, Xiao Jia poked her head out from behind Shu Yao and said, "But, uncle, you didn't ask me" The expression on his face was full of dissatisfaction with Huang Jun.
Huang Jun smiled bitterly and said, "Wenhai, have you ever seen anyone in there?" ”
Wen Hai said: "Impossible, we have already sealed off the inside, if someone inside enters, how can we not know?" ”
"My mother is inside, my mother is inside" Xiao Jia heard this, and her stubborn temper came up.
"You say, what are you competing with a child," Huang Jun said.
"However, what he said can't happen at all," Wen Hai said angrily.
"Why can't it be? You're just saying there's no way anybody can't go in, what if, I mean, if the people inside don't leave at all? Huang Jun said.
"But if they hadn't left, how could we go in and not find anyone? It is impossible for such a large group of people to hide so quietly," Wen Hai said unconvinced.
"That's the crux of the matter," Mr. Huang said.
"In other words, between Wen Hai and Xiao Jia, there must be someone who is lying," Shu Yao said.
"I didn't lie to you, I didn't lie to you, my mother was inside, inside, she kicked me out, she didn't want me anymore, woo" Xiao Jia heard that Shu Yao didn't believe him, and her face was full of grievances.
"Xiao Jia is good, I didn't say you, Xiao Jia doesn't cry" Shu Yao said.
"Are you talking about me? Miss Shu, do you think I'm lying to you? What's in it for me if I do this? Wen Hai was obviously very angry. Shu Yao didn't know what to say for a while.
"Miss Shu didn't mean that, Brother Wen Hai, this matter is not so simple, I don't think we should calm down and think about this matter from the beginning" Huang Jun said in a deep voice.
Wen Hai was stunned for a moment, was silent for a while, and said: "That's right, Miss Shu is right to suspect, if I were him, I'm afraid I would have such suspicions, but the problem is, I really didn't lie."
Huang Jun nodded, "Brother Wenhai, I believe in you."
"However, Xiao Jia won't lie to us," Shu Yao also retorted.
"What if, what if, what both of them say is true?" Huang Jun said suddenly.
"What they both said was true? How is that possible? If Xiaojia's parents are inside, then how can people outside not notice it? Moreover, Professor Wen said that the search and rescue team had searched every corner of the village, but no one was seen, and these two statements were fundamentally contradictory," Shu Yao said.
Wen Hai didn't speak, but stared at Huang Jun, obviously waiting for Huang Jun to explain.
"Brother Wenhai, let me ask you, have you ever been to the village at night?" Huang Jundao.
"Evening, night? Who would run inside at night when the lights went out at night, and besides, since that incident, it was even less likely that anyone would go in at night, wait, you say? Wen Hai finally knew what Huang Jun wanted to say when he heard this.
"What do you want to say?" Shu Yao saw the appearance of Huang Jun and Wen Hai, and said impatiently.
"I want to say that Xiao Jia saw his mother and went in at night, and Wen Hai searched for no one in the whole village during the day, that is, they didn't go in at night, so there is no contradiction between the two of them," Huang Jun said.
"But how is that possible? During the day, no one was seen, and at night, all those who disappeared came out? If they're all still around, why don't they call the police? Or, why don't they notify others? Also, if Xiao Jia is right, why doesn't his mother let Xiao Jia stay in the village and kick him out? This is not in line with a mother's practice," Shu Yao's face was full of disbelief.
