Chapter 69: After the Parallel (Part II)



"What's wrong?" Jinzhi asked in a low voice.

For their whispers, Zhuang Chong has always been accustomed to being invisible. Lin Jie lowered her head to eat steamed buns, her face was flat.

"Those early ...... for you," he said, "were bought at this shop over there." ”

Jinzhi's heart moved slightly, so it was, he also thought of this shop over there. No wonder she ate those buns at the time and felt that the taste was very familiar.

The sun was warm and shining on them through the branches. When it was cold, he still wore the simplest white shirt and black trousers, with his sleeves rolled up, and sat beside her.

Although things are not people. In that world, he came to this store every day and bought breakfast and gave it to her; Now in this world, he and she still sit in this shop and eat a warm breakfast.

The so-called years are quiet, but with you, it's probably so.

Jinzhi lowered his head and ate the bun in one gulp. The hand that Leng Buding put under the table was gently held in his palm. Neither of them spoke or moved, but ate quietly together.

——

After breakfast, everyone continued to walk in the direction of the library. But as the distance got closer and closer, the stranger Jin Zhi's heart became, and Zhuang Chong's face became puzzled.

The Provincial Library over there is a very tall building that can be seen from afar. But first, they were all about to get to the location on the map, and there were still some low old houses around them.

Ying Hanshi stayed by her side and said, "All similarities or differences are caused by random probability. We go with the flow. ”

Jinzhi nodded.

Finally, after turning a few alleys and crossing a few more roads, I finally saw the sign of "Provincial Library".

Jinzhi and Zhuang Chong both looked at it a little stunned.

This gap is too big, isn't it?

In front of them was a slightly old courtyard house, with some falling wall paint and broken tiles. At the entrance of the courtyard, there is a black wooden sign "H Provincial Library", and there are two old people who are over half a hundred years old, squatting there to play chess.

Looking through the courtyard gate, it is a two-story small building, which looks like an old building, with some flowers and plants planted in it, which is very quiet and deserted.

The four of them slowly walked into the courtyard and looked around, and Jinzhi was the first to walk into an office with an open door next to it. The door was hung with a sign saying "Reading Room", and a young girl was sitting behind a workbench with a new face.

Jinzhi: "Hello. ”

The young girl saw several people walking in at once, and was a little puzzled: "Is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Jin Zhi replied: "No, we are just here to visit." ”

The young girl let out an "oh", lowered her head and continued to read: "You can read as you like, but you need to get a library card to borrow books." ”

"Okay."

Lin Jie was still not interested, leaning against the door to smoke and wait for them. The three of them walked around the reading room, and finally found a staff photo column on one of the walls.

This library is really small and broken, and there are only about a dozen staff members in total, and they don't know each other. Of course, there will be no other "Xie Jinzhi" and "Zhuang Chong".

When they walked out of the reading room, both Jinzhi and Zhuang Chong's feelings became a little complicated. On the one hand, they saw the library in another space, and they felt very new. But the other side has developed so ...... is down, and it makes them feel embarrassed.

The four of them walked out of the courtyard gate and went to the side of the road to wait for the bus, ready to walk around the city again.

At this time, one of the two old men who heard chess playing at the door sighed and said, "Old Zhu, why did you lose again." Okay, I'll buy you wine in a moment. ”

The old Zhu smiled: "Chess is addicted, you are willing to gamble and lose, you are a good card friend." ”

The two laughed together. Jin Zhi turned his head and looked at Lao Zhu. She remembered that on the staff column just now, the curator was surnamed Zhu. At this moment, it seems that this old Zhu has a thin face and is in good spirits, which is very similar to the person in the photo.

"Curator." She whispered to Zhuang Chong.

Because the curator over there has always been really good to them, and has always granted them paid leave for unprincipled reasons recently, they still have a close affection for the role of "curator".

The two glanced at each other and walked over curiously. When it was cold, he naturally followed them patiently. Lin Jie leaned against a big tree and watched boredly.

The two old men also noticed that they were approaching, and when they looked up, they were not surprised and continued to play chess.

"Are you Curator Zhu?" Jin Zhi asked.

Lao Zhu smiled but did not answer, and raised his hand to fall. Zhuang Chong "leaned" lightly and whispered to Jinzhi: "Much more temperamental than our one." ”

Jinzhiwaner. Indeed, the curator over there is a middle-aged and slightly chubby man, and he is full of blessings. Although he always looks like a majestic leader, but after getting along for a long time, everyone knows that the curator is very soft-hearted, and when something comes to him, he can't stand the begging of others, and he will help you find a way, a typical man's aunt heart.

But the person in front of him, although the unit is dilapidated, is also wearing a gray shirt and trousers of ordinary materials, and he has an elegant and bookish temperament.

At this time, the old man opposite him smiled and said, "You young people, are you also here to look for Lao Zhu to see feng shui?" He's recently collected the mountain, so let's go. ”

Before Jinzhi could speak, Zhuang Chong was surprised: "Do you still look at feng shui?" Our curator won't ...... anything," Jinzhi tugged at the corner of his coat and motioned for him to shut up.

The old man replied for Director Zhu: "Of course, Lao Zhu is the feng shui master of our city, and the new residence of the chairman of Huiyu Group has been seen by him. ”

Lao Zhu raised his head and smiled at him, neither modest nor anxious: "It's too famous." Then he looked up and looked at Jinzhi and his party. His eyes were extremely clear, swept over everyone, and then stopped at Ying Hanshi, who had the most handsome and gentle temperament, and nodded: "They are all good young people." Go back, I don't show people Feng Shui now. ”

At this time, Lin Jie raised her voice and said, "The car is coming!" ”

Jin Zhi and Ying Han nodded to the two old men and turned to leave. Zhuang Chong glanced at the curator with admiration and left.

When he was on the bus, Jinzhi asked Ying Han in a low voice: "So it seems that there shouldn't be anyone we know in this space?" ”

In the list of library staff, there is no existence of her and Zhuang Chong; Earlier, the owner of the shop also changed; The curator turned into another outsider who was a part-time feng shui master.

Ying Han replied: "From the current point of view, it should be." Despite the convergence of politics, geography and economic development, as John Jr. said, the probability of the same person appearing in the same place must coincide exactly in two spaces. ”

——

On the first day in the parallel space, they were full and fresh. On this day, I almost turned the entire Jiangcheng around, and at the same time learned more about this place.

There are basically the Yangtze River, ferries, government offices, commercial areas and residential areas in Jiangcheng over there. But they are all different. For example, the largest local business group here is the "Huiyu Group" mentioned by the old man before, and even the national industry leader, which affects the economic development of the entire Jiangcheng. This is over there, and there is none; For example, they also went to the location of the rented house in Jinzhi, and it turned out that the old houses there had long been bulldozed and a shopping mall was built.

In the evening, Zhuang Chong found a youth hostel that looked pretty good, and everyone stayed. Although I don't have an ID, money is a good thing to use in any space. Zhuang Chong bet a few hundred yuan more at the front desk, but he was also accommodating.

Four people, opened four single rooms. Because they still have to wait for the scan results from Su, everyone is okay for a while. Zhuang Chong threw his backpack into the room and went out: "I'll go out again to forage for food." ”

Lin Jie walked into the room and closed the door: "I'll make up for sleep." ”

In the corridor, there are only two left: Jinzhi and Ying Hanshi.

Although the decoration of the youth hostel is simple, the style is very simple and clean. The planks under the feet are grid by grid, and the texture is warm; Dried flower bunches hang on the walls.

Ying Han looked down at her, and his face became clearer and more tranquil in the sunset.

"What do you want to do now? Want to get out and about? ”

Jinzhi replied helplessly: "Maybe it's the reason for the jump, and my head is still a little dizzy." I want to go back to my room and sleep for a while. ”

"Okay." He looked at her gently, "Call me if you're uncomfortable, I'll hear you." Later, we'll go out to eat. ”

"Okay." Standing on tiptoe and kissing him lightly on the cheek, he opened the door and walked into the room.

The sky darkened little by little, and in the gloom, it took on a dim red color that was different from that world. Xu was running around for a day and a night, her head sank badly, she took a quick bath, collapsed on the bed, and fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long it took.

Half-asleep and half-awake, some images appeared again in front of her eyes or in her mind. It was during the jump that she didn't see the future.

This time, the picture was almost completely clear and presented in front of her.

——

Ying Hanshi watched TV in the room for a while, and looked up at the clock on the wall, it was already nine o'clock.

Jinzhi hadn't called him yet, and the room had been quiet.

He turned off the TV and lowered his head slightly, listening to her movements.

Suddenly, he was stunned and looked up at the white wall between the two rooms. Then he got up, pushed the door open, and walked to her door.

Knock on the door gently: "Jinzhi? ”

No sound. But the sound of her messy breathing was still there.

Ying Han had already taken a key card for her room, was silent at the door for a while, took out the door card, gently pushed the door open, walked in, and closed it quietly.

There were no lights in the room, only a faint red light in the sky, which came in through the windows. She was curled up in the quilt, still wearing the same dress as during the day. The braids were untied, and the long hair was spread out on the snow-white futon.

Ying Han stared at her quietly for a while, walked to the bedside, knelt down on one knee facing her, and looked at her face.

She was still asleep, her dark brow furrowed and her eyes closed. But his face was already full of tears, and half of his pillow was wet. She sobbed softly in her sleep, as if she had choked up, unable to restrain herself.

Ying Han looked at her for a moment, feeling the pain in his heart.

She rarely cried. Even when she was besieged by artificial intelligence in the library, even if she was besieged by the Black Dragon gang and almost died in the cave, she didn't cry.

The only time I saw her cry was when she saw Gu Ji's dying future.

But...... Jinzhi, this time, what did you foresee in your dreams?

Why are you crying so sadly? It looks even sadder than the last time.

Whether......

Someone around us is about to die?
