Chapter 29: Exchanging Clues

Tao Nai smiled and nodded to Ji Xiaoyue, and then went to cook first.

"I'm a vegetarian, please give me a vegetarian food, thank you."

"Vegetarian......" The man standing behind the shop window, his eyes wandering over Taunai's body greedily, "Then your skin and flesh must be very fragrant and soft, right?" ”

Feeling that the gaze was extremely disgusting, Tao Nai's hand pulled the corner of his clothes and shrunk his neck to avoid Li You's gaze.

Li You saw that Tao Nai was almost scared into a quail, and felt that it was tasteless, so he gave her a portion of rice and vegetables.

With the plate in hand, Tao Nai came to the player's side and sat next to Ji Xiaoyue.

There were two rows of people sitting at the long table.

Wang Chai, Che Beibei, Shen Xinyu and Xiang Qiu sat in a row. Tao Nai and Ji Xiaoyue sat in a row, looking distinct.

"We only have less than an hour, Ji Xiaoyue, you pay attention to the time." Wang Chai spoke first, his tone was undoubtedly domineering, "Remind us when it's almost 1 hour." ”

The corners of Ji Xiaoyue's lips twitched and nodded.

Taunai observed the group of people sitting across from him.

Wang Chai's state looked a little more tired than before, but it didn't look like there was a big problem overall.

And Che Beibei, who was sitting next to him, looked very bad, her expression was full of tiredness and depression, and her arms and neck were wrapped in bandages, looking like she was injured.

And Shen Xinyu and Xiang Qiu are also injured to varying degrees, but their condition is not as bad as Che Beibei.

It seems that everyone's work is being resisted today.

While Tao Nai was looking at the people opposite, Che Beibei was also staring at her.

Seeing that Tao Nai was also injured on his body, she couldn't help but smile happily.

"Time is of the essence, so we're starting to share clues now." Wang Chai's gaze slowly swept over Ji Xiaoyue's face, "Ji Xiaoyue, your talent is related to time. So you probably know, we shouldn't have slept at all. ”

Tao Nai looked at Ji Xiaoyue beside her, and saw that her face was a little cold, and knew that what Wang Chai said was right.

And the reason why Wang Chai talked to Ji Xiaoyue like this was probably because he knew Ji Xiaoyue's talent.

Several other people were also looking at Ji Xiaoyue, with anticipation in their eyes.

"No, you're not entirely right." After Ji Xiaoyue sighed lightly, she slowly spoke, "We did sleep, but we didn't sleep all night. We only slept for about two hours. ”

It suddenly dawned on Tao Nai that no wonder she was getting more and more sleepy now.

"You've always been aware of the time here, and you should have told us from the beginning." Che Beibei looked at Ji Xiaoyue reproachfully, "What an important clue this is." ”

"Why did I tell you in the first place?" Ji Xiaoyue directly sneered and asked.

Che Beibei's face turned pale again, and she was speechless.

"So, we're still in the evening, and it's not the next day?" Xiang Qiu asked weakly.

Ji Xiaoyue nodded firmly.

Tao Nai looked at Ji Xiaoyue's side face.

She still remembers what Ji Xiaoyue said after taking her back to the dormitory.

Ji Xiaoyue said at that time: 'It's just an hour'.

If it weren't for the correlation between talent and time, it would be impossible to pinch time so accurately.

At that time, she also doubted whether Ji Xiaoyue's talent was related to time, so she couldn't help asking.

As a result, Ji Xiaoyue did not answer her.

It seems that Ji Xiaoyue and Wang Chai also have past entanglements.

Otherwise, talent is such an important and private thing, how could Ji Xiaoyue let Wang Chai know?

"Because the patients in this psychiatric hospital are ghosts, they have evolved to sleep, which is why we need to work day and night." Xiang Qiu looked puzzled, and scratched his head frantically with his hands, "But in this case, why didn't the copy directly help us evolve sleep, and let us sleep for those two hours?" Are we afraid that we will die suddenly because we are tired from not sleeping? ”

Several people at the long table fell silent.

Tao Nai, who knew very well what the reason was, was dragging his chin with his small hand at this time, listening carefully to everyone's speech, and did not speak rashly.

"Certainly not." Shen Xinning shook his head very surely, "The dungeon won't do such a boring setting. We slept for those two hours, not the dungeon system. It should be the NPC here. ”

"And NPCs don't do it just to enslave us to work." Ji Xiaoyue followed, "The point should be, what happened in the past two hours when we fell asleep?" ”

"Then why don't we go to sleep?" Taunai spoke softly.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes at the long table converged on her.

"Don't sleep?" Che Beibei resisted the urge to roll her eyes at Tao Nai, "Tell me, why don't we sleep?" ”

"I got a clue earlier." Taunai looked cautious in his soft voice, "I also deduced it from this clue, I don't know if it's feasible." ”

"Don't talk about what doesn't work." Che Beibei looked speechless at Tao Nai, "Messing around will kill people!" ”

The other people on the other side looked at Tao Nai, and they all showed suspicious expressions about her.

"You talk about it, talk about it, and it's okay." Ji Xiaoyue's voice sounded in Tao Nai's ears.

As if he had received great encouragement, Tao Nai puffed up his chest and smiled at her: "Okay, Sister Xiaoyue. ”

Ji Xiaoyue saw that Tao Nai seemed to be completely dependent on her, and her eyes darkened.

"I got a clue from a patient before. She wanted to escape from the asylum, so she chose not to eat or drink, and I suspect that what made us sleepy was what we ate. ”

"That makes sense." Shen Xinyu showed a contemplative expression, "I also got some clues today, in general, the way this madhouse treats patients makes me feel that they are not to treat patients, but to control patients to achieve a certain purpose." So it's not impossible for them to put medicine in food or water to make the patient fall asleep. ”

"Then tell me, why do we only sleep for two hours?" Wang Chai stared straight at Tao Nai's face, his gaze cold and sharp.

"I think it has something to do with our mouthwashing." Tao Nai moved his body to Ji Xiaoyue's side, as if he was frightened by Wang Chai and needed to seek a sense of security.

Ji Xiaoyue looked at Tao Nai's small movements, and helplessly helped her forehead.

But then, her hand was on Tao Nai's shoulder, and then she looked at Wang Chai, "Can your tone be better?" Don't be like everyone owes you anything. ”

"Ji Xiaoyue, if you want to be a virgin, I won't stop you." Wang Chai looked at Ji Xiaoyue coldly, "But I have to warn you, if you want to go against me, I won't worry about our previous friendship anymore." ”

The strong smell of gunpowder suddenly spread in all directions.

Because Wang Chai spoke in a loud voice, some nurses and patients looked towards him.

Those eyes are like cold puppets, without any feelings and emotions, and the emptiness makes people numb.
