Act 60: Paradox

"......Forehead" Lu Mingfei stood at the staircase on the second floor, and the layout of this floor was exactly the same as that of the third floor.

Facing this staircase is directly in front of a corridor, with a wall on the left and a few closed doors on the right, Lu Mingfei looked up, looked at the stairs leading to the third floor, and then looked at the corridor in front of him that was as narrow and oppressive as the third floor.

"Senior sister, do you feel ......?"

Nono ignored him and walked quickly to the first door, the house number was ...... 217!

"What's going on...... Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded, "How is this house number the same as our house number on the third floor?"

"I don't know." Nono frowned, "Give me the key."

"Oh." Lu Mingfei hurriedly handed her the key, and Nuno poked the key into the lock hole, which was completely compliant.

She twisted slightly, and the wooden door opened.

"Does the space overlap?" Nono whispered.

"What spatial overlap?" Lu Mingfei's brain was obviously no longer functioning.

"A theory of physics that should be taught in the basic curriculum of Kassel." Nono glanced at him, "Haven't you listened to the class?"

"Senior sister, do you think I look like I'm listening to a lecture?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head, "But if I listen to a little class, I won't be able to hang up three subjects last semester......

"You don't really look like that." Nono sighed and began to explain to her boyfriend, "According to the definition of time overlap theory, time is overlapping, and when time unoverlaps, it releases time waves, and it is time waves that form space."

"What is a time wave?"

"You don't care." Nono went on to say, "If two different time waves overlap each other, then the space corresponding to the two time waves will overlap, but the two overlapping spaces are independent of each other and do not affect each other."

"For example...... "The second and third floors are identical, but they exist independently of each other because they have different time bands."

"Senior sister, you mean, the second floor is the third floor with different time bands?" Lu Ming asked dryly.

"Well, but that's almost impossible to happen in the real world, and maybe that's a feature of the Nibelungen." Nono walked into the room, and the room layout was exactly the same as 217 on the third floor.

It's just that on the floor by the window, there is no chalk line of the body.

"We can extrapolate." Nono twinked his fingers at a strand of hair in his ear, "This space is now Room 217 when Mr. Statham didn't move in."

"In other words, we only need to stay in this hotel for a few more days to have a chance to see Mr. Statham from check-in to murder?" Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up, "Isn't that simple?"

Nono didn't reply, but stared at the empty floor for a long time, she remembered the special reaction of the exposed woman before, why did she trip for no reason? Could it really be that she has a physical problem?

"Not necessarily." She finally spoke, "Because we can't be sure what point in time this space is on the third floor, and if it was the third floor from a long time ago, then we wouldn't be able to wait for Mr. Statham to move in."

Suddenly, Lu Mingfei heard the sound of the door being pushed open from the corridor, like the innermost room, which was room "220", revealing the room where the woman lived. ….

"Senior sister, close the door." He immediately pulled Nono in and closed the door lightly, but there was a gap, and the two of them were lying on the crack in the door and looking out.

Soon, another expository woman passed by the doorway, dressed completely differently from today's expository woman.

"Another exposed woman at another point in time?" When the figure was gone, Nono muttered, "It seems that the moment she stumbled at the top of the stairs just now was not for nothing."

"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"It should be the effect of the folding of time and space." Nono replied, "The human brain is very powerful, even if there are two of her at different points in time, there will be a sense of déjà vu."

"Understood, then we are ...... now."

Go back to your room and wait and see what happens." Nono said.

……

……

Next, there was a very boring time.

Lu Mingfei was playing with the entertainment on his mobile phone, while Nuo Nuo found a piece of paper and wrote and drew something on the paper.

During this period, Lu Mingfei had an indescribable sound from the upper left of his head, which lasted for about ten minutes, although Lu Mingfei had never been to the fourth floor, but from the appearance of the hotel, it could be inferred that the floor structure was basically the same.

So it can be deduced that the young couple lives in "318".

Speaking of which, he originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to flirt with his senior sister, but Nuo Nuo looked at him with the eyes of a dead man, and Lu Ming had no choice but to give up.

Heavy footsteps kept coming from directly above him, it should be the fat man's room, and the exposed woman who lived next door was very quiet and didn't make any sound.

It sounds like the whole hotel is a normal guesthouse, and there are no strange people or people with strange fetishes.

"It's six o'clock." Nono looked at her watch, she had adjusted it to the time of this Nibelungen.

"Senior sister, have you come to any conclusions?" Lu Mingfei got up from the bed and stretched.

"It's hard to say, there are too few clues right now." Nono turned the pen with his slender fingers, "First, the space that exists in this hotel is very problematic, I haven't figured out what its use is, and second, what is the person who is supposed to exist?"

"We can only wait for tomorrow." Lu Mingfei comforted, "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

"You're right, I'm worried that Chu Zihang and Xia Mi have been waiting too long." Nono pursed his lips, stood up and walked out, "Let's go, let's eat."

……

……

It was still a terrible dinner, during which Nono and Catherine chatted a few words that were not nutritious, the fat man was as irritable as usual, and almost quarreled with the proprietress for the quality of the food, and the exposed woman ate quietly, and then went back to their respective homes.

"Senior sister, ...... tonight" In the room, Lu Mingfei rubbed his hands excitedly.

"Let's say okay first, it's okay to sleep with me, if you dare to move your hands and feet......" Nuo Nuo's eyes were like bright knives, exuding bursts of cold, "Don't blame me for being unkind to you."

"I promise! Just hold it and sleep! Never do anything else!" Lu Mingfei raised his hands and said innocently.

"Then I'll take a shower first." Nono said as he walked to the bathroom, and when he walked into the bathroom, he didn't forget to look back and warn, "Don't peek." ….

"No!" Lu Mingfei swore an oath, "I only need to listen to the sound of your bath, senior sister, and I can make three bowls of rice!"

"Flim Flam." Nono chuckled and closed the bathroom door.

Lu Mingfei listened to the tempting sound of water in the bathroom, he couldn't sit still, he kept standing up and sitting, and finally had to take out his iPhone and play Lianlian, in order to eliminate the magic thoughts in his heart.

"It's boring......" After playing for a few minutes, Lu Mingfei threw his phone aside, and the whole person lay on the bed in a "big" shape, staring at the old wooden ceiling.

In fact, from the first step into this hotel, Lu Mingfei felt that something was wrong, and there always seemed to be a sense of disobedience permeating the air, and the time on the standing clock at the entrance was "ten twenty o'clock", which was strangely familiar.

It's as if this scenario has already been experienced somewhere.

Why didn't the other guests notice the non-existent second floor? Is his sense of déjà vu also the impact of the spatial folding that my sister said? And who does the fifth pile of garbage belong to?

There are so many puzzles......

"Sherlock Holmes, I'll give you a beating when I find you!" Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth with hatred, knowing that he had never been good at these, and asked him to play some detective game.

He suddenly thought of something, and got up and grabbed the phone next to him, "Where's the little devil? He should have a way!"

Just like those classic plots in TV series and movies that never disappoint, I didn't believe it on my phone

Lu Mingfei kept pressing the "send" button of the text message, but he could only get the red exclamation mark of "not in the service area".

He tried to call Lu Mingze a few more times, but there was still no response.

"Damn it, the kid who dropped the chain at the critical moment." Lu Mingfei gave up and stuffed his phone back into his trouser pocket, "It seems that I can only rely on the ingenuity of my senior sister and me!"

"No, it's my ingenuity, you don't." Nono walked in with his hair rubbed, his long dark red hair was wet and dripping with water at the tips.

"There is no hair dryer in this ghost era, and I am annoyed to death, so I have to wait for my hair to dry by itself." She sat down next to Lu Mingfei and stuffed the towel into his hand, "Help me wipe my junior brother, I'm too lazy to move."

"Oh." Lu Mingfei began to help the girl wipe her hair.

"It's only by going back in time that you know how good it is to live in the modern age." Nono sighed, "I will definitely ...... when I go back It hurts, be careful!"

Lu Mingfei just pushed too hard and pulled Nuo Nuo's hair.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He smiled apologetically, "Be sure to pay attention next time."

"Really, I don't even know where I'm talking about......" Nono said angrily.

"Senior sister, you must be when you go back."

"Well, I must cherish life when I go back." Nuo Nuo snatched the towel from Lu Mingfei's hand and kicked him with his little foot, "It's better for me to come by myself, you hurry up and go to the bath."

"Go now." Lu Mingfei agreed.

……

……

Late at night, Lu Mingfei lay on the bed looking at the ceiling with his eyes open, unable to sleep.

Nuo Nuo's hands and feet are extremely dishonest when he sleeps, and he has an evil fire in his stomach.

"Who the hell is doing it......" he sighed, turning his head to look at his sister who was hugging him like an octopus. ….

He gently took Nono's hand away and gently moved it to the side of the bed.

I thought that I could escape from my senior sister's clutches in this way, but after a few minutes, Nuno was entangled again.

"Well, I can't sleep at all." Lu Mingfei was helpless, thinking that he couldn't sleep anyway, so he just sorted out what happened during the day.

Every demeanor, every word, and every action of all the people who intersected was recalled in their minds...... Still nothing strange.

Time passed minute by minute, and Lu Mingfei came up sleepy unconsciously.

It was the first day at the hostel.

……

……

"Damn, when did I fall asleep last night?" Lu Mingfei woke up, and his first reaction was to turn his head to look at Nuo Nuo next to him, but fortunately, she was still sleeping quietly.

Lu Mingfei held the girl's hand to look at the time, ten twenty.

"Why is it ten twenty again?" He frowned, and after about three minutes, he heard heavy footsteps at the top of the stairs, sounding like the fat man.

Lu Mingfei began to feel that things were getting more and more wrong, so he ...... Continued to lie on the bed and did not get up.

Because he's still listening.

After about ten minutes, there was a sound of the door opening next door, and then brisk footsteps passed by their door, apparently revealing the woman.

Hearing this, Lu Mingfei could already vaguely draw conclusions, but he didn't rush out to see, but first woke up Nuo Nuo, who was asleep in his arms, "Senior sister, get up quickly, there is a situation."

Nono woke up instantly, "What's the situation?"

"Senior sister, I just seem to have experienced the same incident as yesterday." Lu Mingfei said in a serious tone.

"What do you mean?" Nono couldn't quite understand him, "Repeat?"

Lu Mingfei thought about it for a while, and said in a different way, "I just went through a time loop."

"Are you referring to that literal time loop?"

"Hmm." Lu Mingfei said, and began to recall the details of yesterday's time with Nuo Nuo, "It was 10:20 when we entered the hotel gate, right?"

"Yes, then we and the hostess

After a few words, the fat man walked out of the dining room and went upstairs."

"I had a repetition this morning, I woke up at 10:20, no more, no less, I looked at the time, and after about three minutes, the man went upstairs."

"......" Nuno was silent for a while, and then continued to recall the details, "We went upstairs to see the room, and then went downstairs to ask the boss about staying in the hotel, and after it was done, we went upstairs and went back to the room at the same time, and exposed the woman from her room."

"It's about ten minutes apart, right?"

"Yes." Nono nodded.

"Complete, complete, one, like." Lu Mingfei said word by word, "About ten minutes after the fat man went upstairs, I heard the voice of the exposed woman opening the door and walking out."

"That doesn't mean we're going through a time loop, does it?" Nono retorted to him, "Maybe it's just their habits? For example, fat men are used to going upstairs after breakfast at 10:20, and exposed women are used to going out after 10:30."

"I'm not entirely sure." Lu Mingfei shrugged, "I still need to add some details."

"Then wait until twelve." Nono said.

……

……

It was twelve o'clock again, Lu Mingfei heard two footsteps upstairs, and the two immediately got up and opened the door to peek out, and sure enough, it was Catherine and her boyfriend.

"Now that explains the problem, right?" Lu Mingfei smiled smugly.

Nuno pondered for a long time before she spoke, "It can only explain part of the problem, but it still doesn't rule out the reason for living habits."

"Let's go downstairs to the restaurant." Lu Mingfei snorted, "Just talk to them to know that if time really loops, their conversation will definitely repeat."

96.

What do you call it
