When I was in the unrestricted free space before, I ran into Yuezi and Yuhui, and now looking at them in front of me, I am sure that I really encountered a hellish absurdity.

"Yuhui? Confined? …… You guys...... Did I just dream? I'm not dreaming, am I? "I squinted my eyes and searched my memory, which was so clear that it didn't feel like a dream.

"Brother...... Wasn't we in that weird place just now...... We seem to ...... Did you really run into the paranormal......? My sister Yuezi also looked around at the others uncertainly, frowning slightly, looking very nervous.

"Really." Standing in the corner, Yu Hui, who didn't have much expression fluctuation except for a trace of worry on her face, said these two words softly.

"Yuhui...... Do you think that's true too? I looked at Yuhui uncertainly and asked.

Under the mediocre bangs, Yuhui blinked her clear eyes, looked at me with a determined expression, and repeated what she had just said:

"Really."

I know that Yuhui is a programmer, her personality is a bit withdrawn, and her language skills are not very strong, so she has always spoken simply and clearly, but she is very smart, knows a lot, and has helped me in work and some life before, so I trust and appreciate her very much. Since Yuhui said that it was true, then I can only believe that we are afraid that we are really involved in a supernatural phenomenon.

But...... How is this possible? This is not a movie or a novel, how can there be such an absurd thing? However, although I didn't believe it in my heart, the disgusting scene when the girl named Miyoko killed that man and the spectacular scene of the destruction of the universe are still vivid, and I suddenly felt a wave of nausea, suddenly felt like throwing up, and the whole person was a little unsteady.

Is there really a god in this world? Or is it a prank by someone? I couldn't figure it out at all, I opened the book in my hand, and hurriedly looked at it, the first page of the book was a monologue written in the first person by the man named Gao Tianfeng, every word was very clear, and it also recorded in detail what the man named Gao Tianfeng saw and heard in that called unlimited free space, looking at the words in the book, I felt that my whole person was a little prostration.

Retracting my gaze from the page, I looked at James Holmes and the others standing on the side, and when I saw me, the heavy face of the blonde and blue-eyed James Holmes barely showed a mouthful of white teeth.

"Mr. Yang, I don't know if you still remember me...... I'm James Holmes, and I know Amano Tsukiko, and I've met her before at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris......"

"I know, I know, how can I not know, she sometimes mentions you in confinement." I said with a forced smile.

"Mr. Yang, here...... Looks like it's your home, right? To be honest, I was travelling in Coventry before and then I got a text message...... Somehow I came here...... Looks like we've really met with the unbelievable. "James is very fluent in Chinese, and I've heard that he is an Interpol who walks in many countries and speaks several languages.

James's expression became a little surprised and solemn again, and I looked at Xu Bin and the fat man on the side.

"Uh...... How do you say good...... What the hell...... My name is Zhang Muyi......" The bald fat man said with a big belly, a little unnaturally, "Engaged in artistic creation, I saw you in that space just now......

"You ...... Didn't they all know each other? Zhang Muyi looked at us and asked, looking at him as if he was a little wary of us.

"Hmm...... I guess I know each other. She is my sister, Amano Yuezi, and she is my friend, Liu Yuhui. There is also this handsome guy with blond hair, who is my sister's friend, and this young man, named Xu Bin, is my daughter's classmate...... "I looked at Xu Bin and wanted to make an introduction, Xu Bin looked at me a little bit without knowing what to say, called me softly, and said:

"Uncle Yang."

"You remember me, Xu Bin." I looked at Xu Bin and said.

"Well, Uncle Yang, you still remember me......" Xu Bin said, a little afraid to look me in the eyes, and lowered his head.

I looked at Xu Bin, looked at it for a while, squeezed my fist gently, and finally didn't say anything, for this boy who went to elementary school with Xueqi and used to have a good relationship, I don't have a good impression in my heart, but now when I don't care about this kind of thing, I don't have time.

“I’mtiredandhungry，MrYang，Iwannasomefood.” Just when I didn't know what to say, the little boy who was standing next to me suddenly spoke, looked at me with big eyes, and caught my attention with a clear and childlike voice.

"You...... Say what? …… Oh, that, sorry, Idon'tcatch...... "I didn't go to college, and although my grades in high school were okay, English has always been my weakness, and pure English sounds very different from the Chinese slow accent pronunciation on the radio.

"Brother, your English is really bad enough, so you can't hear it so basically, he said that he is very tired and hungry, and wants to eat something." Yuezi reminded me on the side, I suddenly realized, Yuezi had already walked in front of the little boy, bent down and smiled and communicated something with him in English, and when talking, Yuezi also showed a slightly surprised expression, I don't know what she heard.

After finishing speaking, Yuezi raised her head and said:

"Brother, this kid said his name is Foolish, he is British, ten years old this year, and he asked us who we are and if we are doing a whole-person show."

"British? But I remember him saying Chinese in the unrestricted free space......"

"This is very strange...... "Tsukiko also thought about the question, "but it seems that he really doesn't understand what we are talking about." I don't know what the situation is...... But that place is already very strange, and I guess all kinds of strange things will happen there......"

I looked at this innocent-looking, but somewhat strange boy, and then smiled at him, and touched his head, my English expression skills are not very good, and now I am involved in this ridiculous thing, although I myself am nervous, and I can't figure out what is going on in my head, but at least I don't want this ten-year-old boy to be involved in dangerous things.

"Forget it then...... Yuezi, you tell this child, tell him that we will be fine, we will take care of him, we will be there for everything, and then you ask him where he lives, if there is any contact information of the family or something, we will find a way to send him back. ”

Yuezi nodded at me, and then talked to a little English boy named Frexiu, this time Yuezi asked the address of the little boy, the little boy lives in Surrey, London, he said that he was playing with his father's mobile phone when he suddenly encountered a "supernatural event", almost like in the movie, he is very excited now, a little bit less like home.

The little boy Fréxiu was much more daring than I thought, to be honest, it was really the first time I had seen a foreign boy, and his personality and thoughts were completely different from those of Chinese children.

"That's good, Mr. Yang, when I go back to Europe, I'll take Frexiu back with me." James suggested.

Of course, it would be best if it could be like this, and I didn't say anything more. Because I have just experienced something incredible, even supernatural, I am quite excited and nervous now, just like you are walking on the road and bumping into a murder incident, even if you sneak home, your emotions will still be tense for a while, and your mind will keep replaying the previous picture.

When people are excited and afraid, there will be more communication, through my understanding, I have a general understanding of the situation of the confinement of them, when I received the text message from Mei Yezi, the confinement is painting at the Paris Academy of Fine Arts, and Yuhui is writing a program, Zhang Muyi is going out to edit, James is traveling, Xu Bin is reviewing at home, and the little boy Frexiu is playing with his mobile phone at home, so to speak, each of us is gathered together from different places.

"If it weren't for the fact that you all remember exactly the same thing I remember, I would have thought I had a dream or something." James said.

"Seriously, I still feel like I'm dreaming......" I said, rubbing my temples, and then I showed the book that the woman named Miyoko had given me to James, and she looked through the contents very carefully, even trying to tear the pages. But I found that this book is very ordinary, no different from ordinary pages, and the pages are so broken after they are torn, and they don't recover by themselves like in magic movies, and scribbling on them will not automatically erase them.

"It looks like an ordinary book." Yuezi opened her cherry lips and said. "Sister Yuhui, what do you say?"

“…… Very ordinary. Yu Hui didn't have much expression on her face, but she could see that she said this after thinking for a while.

"Anyway, it's useless for us to just think about it for ourselves now. Brother, I just don't know...... What does the woman named Miyoko mean by conquering the world in a month...... Moreover, she also said that you can't conquer the world in a month, we ...... Will you die? ”

After all, Yuezi still mentioned this sensitive topic, and when I heard Yuezi's words, my heart sank suddenly. I don't understand.

I really don't understand my current situation at all, who is that woman named Miyoko? Is it a monster? Or a fairy? Or is it just a magician, a liar?

Why did I come across such a ridiculous thing?

And, What does it mean to conquer the world? You don't think you're going to war, are you? It's strange no matter how you think about it, and I don't understand it at all......

What I care about and fear the most is what the woman named Miyoko said that if we don't conquer the world in a month, the whole world will perish...... Is she scaring us? However, the scene I saw in that place called Unlimited Free Space was so spectacular and shocking......

"Maybe it's really that we think too much, or not." James said suddenly, and I looked at him and saw the cautious look on the young foreign detective's face. "I've done a lot of cases, so I've heard of some strange things, and I've heard of something called 'group hypnosis,' which is when a group of people have hallucinations because of some special circumstances, thinking they have an incredible experience. Such things are rare, but they are not uncommon. ”

"Oh, Detective James, you're saying we're ...... Collective hypnosis? Is it the kind on TV? "I don't know much about collective hypnosis and the like, but when I was a student, I liked to read some books on the mysteries of the world, and I seemed to have seen similar articles, saying that collective hypnosis seems to be a hallucination of people in some specific scenes, such as people who died on an iceberg will see visions in a bonfire or something.

"It's hard to say...... Hehe, it's really hard to say. But now it seems that we have nothing to do for the time being, and it seems that there is no other danger except that we have inexplicably arrived at Mr. Yang's house. Detective Jame could only spread his hands in the end.

We chatted casually for a while, and the others walked around my villa for a while. I persuaded them to stay and have dinner at my house together, after all, after experiencing this kind of thing, everyone will be nervous and excited to find out the truth, especially Yuezi and James, now suddenly came to my house from a foreign country, if you want to go back, passports and visas and the like are very difficult to get, and you have to find another way, they have no place to go for the time being, so they can only live in my house first.

During the discussion, the little boy asked to borrow my mobile phone for the first time, and wanted to call his parents, it seems that this little guy is really in a hurry, I saw him hurriedly ran into the bathroom with my mobile phone, and after a while, he came back disappointed, saying that my mobile phone could not make international calls, and then had to borrow Yuezi and James's respectively.

It was soon getting dark, and I looked at the time, it was almost six o'clock, and I looked at the overcast sky outside, as if it was going to rain, and the candles on the coffee table at home, and I suddenly realized that I had forgotten something very important.

Today is October 1st, which happens to be Xueqi's birthday.

That's when I just thought about it. Because she went to tutor Teacher Ma's house to make up for the lesson, Xueqi also came back late, but after calculating the time, she should also go home.

Just as I realized this, there was a sound of the door closing softly outside the villa, and I turned my head and saw a slender shadow of Tingting walking into the villa unhappily and slowly.

"Dad, I'm back, today is the National Day, there is a bit of a traffic jam on the road......"

Clear and pleasant, and a little slender and astringent voice, hearing this voice, I know that it is Xue Qi who has gone home.

Long black hair, snow-white and delicate skin that is more than ordinary girls, like a little princess who stays at home, and a pair of black and bright big eyes that look particularly innocent and pure whenever you look at it and a thin cherry pink lip, this is the girl I picked up since I was a child, Xueqi. Because Xueqi has rarely gone out since she was a child, her skin is much whiter than that of ordinary girls.

Today's Xue Qi is wearing a solid color pullover hoodie with straight school sweatpants, and a handbag with a notebook in her hand, I remember that I bought it when I accompanied her to the mall in the middle of last month, the hoodie was selected by me for Xue Qi, and the student sweatpants were selected by Xue Qi herself, at that time Xue Qi hesitated between gray and blue for a while.

Xue Qi habitually took off a white running shoe at the shoe cabinet at the entrance of the villa, at this time she found that there were many people at home, and immediately closed her mouth nervously, probably because I have been hiding from the people around me since I was a child to adopt Xue Qi and try not to let her contact with the relationship of outsiders, Xue Qi has been very afraid of life since she was a child, no matter when someone comes to the house, she will be so nervous that she will not dare to speak, most of the time she will hide directly in the room on the second floor, this situation has become her habit over the years.

However, among the people present, Yuezi, Yuhui and Xu Bin she still know, Yuhui is my friend, sometimes she will come to my house to send New Year's gifts or something or help me repair the computer, so Xueqi and her are quite familiar, Yuezi is my sister, of course, not an outsider, and Xu Bin is Xueqi's elementary school classmate, although it has been several years since we have seen each other, but QQ or something is still added, and it is not unfamiliar, but the little boy Frexiu, Zhang Muyi and James are a little rusty compared to Xueqi.

"Eh, Sister Yuhui and Sister Yuezi are all here?! Xu Bin, why did you come to my house...... Dad, why are there so many people in the house today? Xue Qi recognized Yuezi, Yuhui and Xu Bin, her big eyes widened, and the unfamiliar expression on her face suddenly faded, and she seemed happy.

"Oh, this, several of them are here to visit our house, Sister Yuhui heard that you are on your birthday today, and she came back from vacation today, and this, it is Uncle Zhang, and this, Mr. James Holmes from Europe, all came to my house as a guest, and then this ......" I was a little embarrassed to introduce a few people from the family, and when I introduced the little boy Frexiu, I didn't know what to say.

"He's a relative of mine, named Frexiu. Hello Miss Chen. You are so beautiful, it simply amazes me. James helped me out in time and said hello to Xueqi with a smile. Xue Qi's face suddenly turned pale and looked a little shy.

"Hello Mr. James." Xueqi politely greeted James, then changed her shoes and walked into the hall.

Yuezi took the initiative to look at Xue Qi, and after comparing her height, she smiled softly:

"Qiqi, come here, let me see, hey, I don't see it in the Weibo photo, look carefully at the changes are so big, I've only been in France for a few years, and you've grown taller again, you're going to surpass me soon, and you've become so beautiful, you're really a big beauty, hehe." If you go to France, you might become the chouchou (small cabbage) in the minds of countless men. ”

"What do you mean by chouchou?" Xue Qi asked curiously.

"It's a little cabbage, and the French call their favorite girl by saying that you are my little cabbage. Hehe. Yuezi said with a smile.

"Oh, that's right...... Hee-hee...... Sister Yuezi, you have also become beautiful. Xue Qi spat out her little pink tongue mischievously. Then he looked at Xu Bin who was on the side with some mind. Seeing it by Xue Qi, Xu Bin was suddenly a little overwhelmed, he rubbed his trouser legs, and said hesitantly:

"That...... Hello Chen Xueqi...... I haven't seen you for several years, haha......" Xu Bin didn't know what to say, but just said hello a little awkwardly. "That, that, I...... I'm just passing by...... I'm here to borrow a toilet, I'll go back first, so I won't bother you...... Good bye. ”

Saying that, Xu Bin hurriedly turned around and was about to leave, when he was a child, Xu Bin came to my house to play with Xueqi a few times because of homework and discussing calligraphy and painting, but now after all, the two of them have grown up, and they haven't seen each other for many years, plus Xueqi has become so beautiful, Xu Bin will of course be a little overwhelmed.

Seeing the momentum of Xu Bin turning around and leaving, I frowned and said:

"It's okay, you can stay and have dinner together, and I'll send you back later."

Hearing my words, Xu Bin stopped his steps and turned around with some hesitation.

"Or ...... Forget it, Uncle Yang. I still went back......"

"It doesn't matter, today happens to be Qiqi's eighteenth birthday. You're Qiqi's elementary school classmate, so you can congratulate her. ”

Hearing my words, Xu Bin was a little surprised, with a complicated look of embarrassment and struggle on his face, he glanced at Xue Qi, and after meeting Xue Qi's eyes, he hurriedly dodged, and finally said softly:

"That's right...... But I didn't have any gifts......"

"It doesn't matter. Let's have a meal together, and you can talk about your elementary school days. I said with a polite smile. Then I said to the rest of the hall, especially Zhang Muyi and James, who helped me out:

"Master Zhang, Mr. James, you all have dinner together, taking advantage of the crowds today, ha, it's quite lively. Normally, we don't see so many people in our house. ”

Hearing my invitation, James smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said:

"Then you're welcome, Mr. Yang."

"Then I...... You're welcome, Boss Yang, hehe. ”

Zhang Muyi also looked at Xue Qi, then at me, then squinted his eyes, swept Xue Qi up and down, and finally smiled dryly, and did not refuse my invitation.

Originally, I planned to spend her eighteenth birthday at home with Xueqi today, but since there were so many people in the family today, the dishes at home were not enough, so I booked a seat in the hotel box where I usually invite foreign customers to dinner, and invited this group of people to take two cars to the hotel for dinner.

Being able to have so many people congratulate her on her birthday, Xue Qi was also a little overjoyed, she seemed very happy along the way, and even hummed a small tune in the passenger seat. While driving, Xueqi saw the "Ordinary World" I was carrying, and asked me a little strangely:

"Dad, do you also read Lu Yao's novels?"

I was stunned for a moment, and then I continued:

"Yes, isn't this book out of a TV series, a colleague recommended me, I think it's pretty good, so I bought a hardcover version."

"Well, my classmates also like to watch it." Xue Qi said.

I put "Ordinary World" in the car box to prevent Xueqi from seeing the book. No matter what kind of situation I'm in now, I don't want Xue Qi to encounter such a terrifying and bizarre thing.
