"Yes, you heard it right." Lu Haisheng nodded, "You, and I, both returned to this day after seven years and fell into a time reset. ”

I propped my hands on the table, stared at Lu Haisheng's calm face with wide eyes, and opened my mouth a few times to say something, but I didn't know what to say. It was seconds later, perhaps tens of seconds, before he sat back in his chair.

I looked at the notebook spread out on the table, and felt that there seemed to be some hair in front of me, and reached for the pen that I had just thrown aside, and tried to write down the time in the notebook. Robbie realized that my hands, along with my body, were shaking uncontrollably.

I wiped my face with my other hand, only to realize that in such a hot summer, my fingertips were unusually cold, I knew that it was because the news just now was so shocking that I couldn't accept it for a while.

The cold fingertips touched my face, crossed my eyes, and felt the coolness, but I felt a lot more sober. After taking a deep breath and calming myself down, I looked back at the notebook on the table and wrote down the date Lu Haisheng said - December 21, 2012.

"Seven years later," I said, looking at the time, and writing on it today — July 21, 2005, the time of the time reset—"I'm actually twenty-five years old?" ”

Lu Haisheng nodded, "Yes, the Mo Li I know is already twenty-five years old." ”

I stared at my hand, then raised my hand and touched my face, "Twenty-five, but I've always felt like I'm eighteen, and I don't think there's anything wrong with my body."

"You are indeed eighteen years old now." Lu Haisheng said, stretched out his hand and gestured to me, "Seven years later, you are not like this, your hair is longer than now, and you look more mature than now, your current appearance should be the same as when you were eighteen years old." ”

So, when I went back from 2012 to 2005, not only did my memory go back to seven years ago, but my body also changed back to seven years ago? And what about Lu Haisheng?

"What about you?" I looked at Lu Haisheng and looked at him carefully, "How old are you?" Have you changed back to what you were seven years ago, now in 2005? ”

It's really inconvenient to talk like that, and both points in time have confused my questions.

"Nope." Lu Haisheng shook his head, "What I look like now is what I was in 2012, 27 years old." Maybe it's like my memories are all the same, and the time reset just stuck me in today, but it didn't have any other effect on me, such as not remembering the events of the past seven years, going back to 2005, or resetting my memories today at the same time as time resetting, none of which I have. ”

I wrote down what Lu Haisheng said in a notebook and carefully analyzed the situation of the two of us. According to him, and the situation around me, everything I have is back to its old state, whether it is memory or body. And he's more like a crossing? In 2012, he traveled back to 2005? Ay? Wait a minute

I looked up at Lu Haisheng, "If you look at the situation according to what you said, take memory and physical state as the standard, you should be Lu Haisheng in 2012, and I am Mo Li in 2005, maybe it's only you who go back to the past, and it's me who is trapped in time reset." ”

"Maybe so." Lu Haisheng scratched his head, "And every time the time is reset back to this morning, I will be reset back to the same place, and I didn't know you in 2005, and I wasn't in the city at that time." ”

Lu Haisheng pursed the corners of his lips as he spoke, "I think everyone is marked, only you don't, and I only know you in this city." And you and I are caught up in something beyond the norm. I think it's pretty clear, what happened to the two of us must be related to each other, and I think the solution lies with each other. ”

I sighed slightly, and I had to admit that what Lu Haisheng said was right. Even though I was me in 2005 and he was in 2012, we didn't know each other well, but we both needed to solve the problem of the present - he needed to go back to his 2012, and I needed my next day.

"Okay, so our focus should be on how to fix the current time reset situation. If you want to solve this problem, you must first find the cause! I sorted out my thoughts and began to speculate based on the clues I already had, "This happened at two points in time, one on December 21, 2012, and the other on July 21, 2005. ”

"According to you, you weren't here on July 21, 2005, which means that this place should have nothing to do with you, so the reason for the time reset is because of me?" I raised an eyebrow slightly, "Or is it your arrival that triggered this time reset?" ”

I jotted down the two situations separately and continued to speculate along these lines, "If it's me, then maybe the reason you're here is to help me eliminate the time reset situation." And if it's because of you, why did you go back to seven years ago? ”

The tip of my pen stopped at the words "the reason for going back to seven years ago", and looked up at Lu Haisheng, "What happened in 2012?" ”

"It's okay, everything is normal." Lu Haisheng shook his head slightly, there was still no expression on his face, it looked like he was indifferent to my speculation? "Nothing strange happened around me, I think I came back here because of you, to help you eliminate the time reset."

Looking at his cold appearance, I was slightly suspicious, and thought about what I had done, did I offend him without noticing? Or does he also think that he went back seven years ago because I had some resentment towards me?

I don't know what Lu Haisheng thinks, if he really complains about me because he was involved in the current situation, I don't think I have a position to say anything about him. Excluding his cause, then that is to say, the cause of the time reset is on me, and since I caused the situation that involved the innocent him, all I can do is to find a solution as soon as possible so that he can get out of this trouble.

"Well, then, the problem is with me." I crossed out the speculation about him and turned my attention back to my own reasons, "If it's my reason, is there any special reason for the time reset on July 21, 2005 and today?" ”

I circled the date of July 21, 2005 with my pen, what is the special meaning of this time? Or did something special happen on this day?

"You know me in 2012, right?" I looked up and asked Lu Haisheng, "What is the difference between me in 2012 and me now, except for my appearance?" Tell me a little bit about 2012, as detailed as possible? ”

Lu Haisheng raised his eyes to look at me but didn't speak, I couldn't see any expression on his face other than calm, so I couldn't guess what he was thinking, so I could only wait patiently for him to speak.

After a while, he took a deep breath, lowered his eyes and stopped looking at me, and began to talk about my situation in 2012.

"It's not just your appearance that has changed, you've changed a lot. The personality has become very introverted, not very talkative, giving people a feeling of being very cold, and a feeling of resistance to contact with others. ”

"In 2012, you were a writer, writing suspense, publishing a few books, and living on manuscript fees. I've read the stories I wrote, and they're quite interesting, promoting truth, goodness and beauty, like your style. ”

"You didn't really like tying your hair up at the time, and I don't know if you like it now. You don't wear skirts anymore, you always wear pants. The most hated thing to eat is tomato scrambled eggs, and I don't know what I like to eat. ”

"The physical strength is very poor, running is like torture for you, and you are out of breath for a thousand meters. There doesn't seem to be any health problems, but the stomach doesn't look good. ”

As Lu Haisheng said more and more information, I recorded it more and more slowly, and the suspicion in my heart continued to increase. What he said was so far from where I am now that I could not imagine myself becoming what he said I would be. Aside from the fact that becoming a suspense is in line with my expectations, I don't know why the rest of the changes are at all. On the other hand, how could he know so much about me? Even the smallest details, like what I hate to eat, are so clear?

But now is not the time to dwell on this, I wonder if there are any more obvious changes besides that?

"What was the situation around me like at that time?" I asked, "Where do I live?" Do you still live at home? My home"

"You're still living at home, your family doesn't live here. I don't know why, but you lived in the living room at the time, and both rooms were closed and I don't know what was going on inside. I don't know about your friend, I haven't heard you mention it. ”

Is it my delusion? I frowned slightly, why do I think I haven't completely finished asking when Lu Haisheng just answered my question? How could he answer so accurately? It's like knowing what I'm going to ask

I suddenly remembered that before, Lu Haisheng found my house by himself after seeing my parents leave

I bit my lip slightly and put down the pen in my hand. Take a deep breath and tell yourself to stay calm, and only after making sure that you are calm do you raise your eyes to look at Lu Haisheng.

"I'll ask you one more question."

I saw him raise an eyebrow slightly, but I was sure I saw it and I thought it was a sign of surprise.

"What?"

"How long have we been repeating this day?"

“”

I clearly saw that Lu Haisheng was slightly stunned, he frowned, but did not answer my question.

I stood up and walked over to him, looked down at him and asked.

"The same conversation, the same discussion, the same inferences, the same questions and answers, how long has it been repeated?"

This time, Lu Haisheng was not silent anymore, but took a deep breath and looked up at me, "Forty-three times is not today's words." You haven't asked me my question before. ”

"Why didn't you tell me this had happened?"

"Because your speculations are by far the most useful part of everything we've ever done. I haven't thought of anything else we can do other than that, or — what else might be useful, we haven't tried yet. ”

Lu Haisheng's answer came into my ears, and I felt that my thoughts were in a mess, and the question I wanted to ask was on the tip of my tongue, but I didn't dare to say it. After a few seconds of silence, I mustered up the courage to ask again.

"So how long has the time reset been?"

"Today is the three hundred and twenty-seventh day."
