Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 2004 The Role of Jotans
"After drawing 'chocolate cake' last time, nothing happened for a while."

After a long time, Lin Sanjiu finally called out the new upgraded [Flat World] card again—the card was completely blank.

"I thought it was because I didn't research it clearly, or the ability itself is too rudimentary and needs to be polished to show its effect..." She said, thinking of the long-lost "ability polishing agent". "I've been thinking, why didn't there be any response after I finished drawing the cake, but it suddenly appeared in the bubble space after a long time?"

The life mentor leaned over and asked, "Why do you think so?"

"I don't think it's a coincidence, nor is it random. Because the bubble space is the first subspace that intersects with me." Lin Sanjiu squeezed the blank card in his hand tightly, and said, "So, it is also the first subspace of chocolate cake." a place where opportunity arises."

"You mean..." The life coach thought for a while and asked, "The content you draw on this card will only be materialized in the secondary space?"

"After much deliberation, I think this is the only possibility." While thinking, she said, "Yu Yuan said that when a transaction item enters [eBay], there will be a 'confirmation'. Once the confirmation is completed, it is a An existence that is completely unaffected by Yu Yuan...he can't grab the trade item and come out with it."

The life mentor said "Oh", and when he was about to answer, he looked at [Today I am an anaerobic organism] with regret, put it back on the table reluctantly, and then said: "I understand. If you The card item can be directly formed in the secondary space, then it avoids the process of 'confirmation', you hope Yu Yuan can catch it, and when it is expelled from the space by [eBay], you can also bring Yu Yuan out by the way .”

He rubbed his chin and said, "It's just that there are too many 'ifs'. If one condition is not met, he won't even be able to get out."

"I know, that's why I want to try." While speaking, Lin Sanjiu pushed the card with the description of the item to the artist, and ordered, "Draw a wooden board."

The wooden board was something she could fully understand its nature—she had not forgotten that the mobile phone drawn on the card had never appeared from any subspace.

After the artist took the card, she quickly wrote down a message to Yu Yuan on a piece of paper, telling her plan from beginning to end; Jotans "sold" it to her life mentor, and the mentor accepted it. Passing the note, glanced at the content of the plan, and nodded silently.

"Are you ready?"

After going through the plan carefully, when the artist handed a wooden board card that was as realistic as a photo into Lin Sanjiu's hand, the life mentor also pressed [eBay] into the palm of her other hand.She took a deep breath, and in a flash of her mind, she released the card of the "wooden board".

"If the wooden board can go in, it should be in by now." After waiting for two seconds, she put [eBay] back into the hands of the life coach, "You start trading immediately."

Jotans had been prepared for a long time, and grabbed a stack of writing paper tied with rubber bands; the tutor's reaction was also extremely fast, almost within a few breaths, the transaction was completed, and the writing paper appeared in the tutor's hand.

This also means that [eBay] has opened a pipeline.

When the writing paper disappeared from the instructor's hand, Lin Sanjiu's eyes were also torn away immediately - she held her breath, looked at the [eBay] in Jotans' hand, and waited for an unbelievably long two seconds ——Three pieces of white paper jumped into the sky one after another, and then fell down.

When they passed Jotans' eyes, he had already read all the words on the pieces of paper, and immediately shouted: "'I saw', what was written on the paper was 'I saw'!"

Lin Sanjiu's heart thumped back into her stomach - what Yu Yuan saw could not be the second thing, it was her wooden plank.For a moment, she didn't even have time to think about the significance of this matter, and she ordered in a trembling voice: "Quick, you guys continue to trade, don't let the pipeline be interrupted."

While she was speaking, the instructor had already "sold" the stack of thick typefaces back. As soon as Jotans got it, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately sent it back to the instructor the same way.

It was as if the two were playing a game of catch; only the path of the ball crossed another invisible space.

A total of three heads of Lin Sanjiu and the two humanoid objects moved along the pile of writing paper that was handed back and forth, turning to the left for a while, and turning to the right for a while. After the transaction was repeated four or five times, she was almost anxious And the breathing was not smooth, and finally a dark brown rectangular shadow fell from the tutor [eBay].

"The wooden planks are squeezed out!" Lin Sanjiu snatched it up in two steps, stretched out his hand to fish it out, but found nothing.

The wooden board that just fell from [eBay] just emerged from the air, and it melted rapidly, as if it never existed.

"What's going on?" Lin Sanjiu was startled, thinking that he had accidentally turned it into a card, and looked in the card library, only to find that the wooden card had long since disappeared.

Isn't it okay to stay in the mature space for a second?
"The plank is out," said Jotans at the other end of the table, who was searching the dining room, before he realized that the plank had disappeared, "Why didn't you see your friend?"

Lin Sanjiu stood up, as if he didn't believe him, and walked around the area twice.But it is true that there is neither plank nor Yuyuan.

...The several assumptions she made just now are obviously satisfied, right?Why didn't it work?

"Ah, here we are again," Jotans exclaimed, causing Lin Sanjiu to turn his gaze away—this time, several pieces of writing paper flew up from his hands like white birds— —It turned out that it was Yu Yuan who sent the news again.

Except for the painter and the sorceress, the three of them buried their heads in spelling together, and within 2 minutes, they reassembled Yu Yuan's news.

The message he sent was short, but Lin Sanjiu looked at it for a while, but couldn't understand it.

"I saw your board," Yu Yuan said, "but I can't find it."

...This doesn't make sense at all?

"What do you mean? What does it mean to see but not find?" Lin Sanjiu asked Yu Yuan, taking advantage of the transaction. "Is it because you couldn't find it that you didn't come out with it?"

This time the writing paper sent back was much more than last time, sitting on the dining table like a hill.

"Yes. I can't find it, so I can't grab it." Yu Yuan wrote in his reply, "I told you, there are no directions in [eBay] space, only pipes, right? My 'see ', which is also different from the outside world, closer to 'perception'... In my cognition, your plank appeared. But because there is no direction here, I don't know how to find it and grasp it."

None of the expected problems appeared, but an unexpected obstacle, which made Lin Sanjiu want to kick the wall in despair.

"Didn't you always find trade items before?" she asked.

"To be precise, what I found was not a trading item, but a trading channel." Yu Yuan replied: "After entering the space, the channel and the item are connected as one, so it is not difficult to find the item. But the wooden board is a foreign It’s not connected to anything, and even if I go into an activated channel, I don’t know where it is.”

Lin Sanjiu almost plucked out his hair. "Then look for it along the pipeline!"

"As I said, there is no direction here." Yu Yuan still said in the same tone, "I can hit the [eBay] terminal along the pipeline, because the [eBay] terminal is also connected to the pipeline, but I can't go along the pipeline." Find a foreign object by following a pipe with no direction."

After reading Yu Yuan's reply, Lin Sanjiu simply pushed the paper forward, each word filled with anxiety and annoyance: "I don't understand what he's talking about at all."

"It's really hard for people to imagine a space without direction," said the instructor.

"Can you imagine?" Lin Sanjiu glanced at him.

"I can't either." The instructor replied without knowing it.

When one person and three items fell into silence, Jotans, who had been sitting obediently by the side, spoke hesitantly: "Well... I think, um, maybe I can help."

Lin Sanjiu's gaze focused on him like a searchlight.

"You know, my ability is to track people." Jotans moved his body, did not elaborate on his bottom-pressing skills, but simply introduced: "My ability is quite special, and I can't directly perceive the target's movement." The location, on the contrary, is like... well... like reconstructing the activity route of the missing person, one mark after another, one thing after another, until the end of the route, you will be the target person you are looking for. My ability is better than the average tracking ability It’s more reliable, because no matter how you hide your whereabouts, your feet will always step on somewhere, your hands will inevitably touch something, your hair will fall out, your skin will touch your clothes... all can be clues.”

Lin Sanjiu looked at him, waiting for him to finish speaking.

"That's why I think Gong Daoyi is not in this world. The clues that could reach him were cut off soon." Jotans said "ah" and said, "I'm a bit off topic. All in all, I The ability can also be used in reverse... That is to say, I can let Yu Yuan follow the clues I left, like crossing a river by feeling a rope, one by one—"

Before he finished speaking, [eBay] had been stuffed back into his hand heavily by Lin Sanjiu.Jotans was hit by her uncontrollable force and his face turned pale, but Lin Sanjiu didn't realize it, and turned his head to tell the artist: "Draw another board!"

Except for the sorceress who was busy with nothing to do, everyone else fell into a short-term rush; Lin Sanjiu wrote replies and new plans to Yu Yuan, the tutor hurriedly prepared the writing paper, and the artist immersed himself in painting... Her mind was torn apart by various emotions, almost relying on muscle memory, she carefully replayed the last plan.

The difference is that with the help of Jotans, it was Yu Yuan who fell out of [eBay] this time.

　I really like Chinese, it is subtle and powerful.I am dissatisfied with my Chinese level, my vocabulary is small, and it is difficult to form words and spell sentences. Anyway, I am not authentic.A long time ago, I saw the level of students in the Chinese Department of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and I felt ashamed when I compared them.I want to make up for it, but I don't know how to make it up, and what to see to make it up.Especially Chinese is said to be an abstract language full of pinyin abbreviations and sentences in order today. I feel that the space for really good Chinese is shrinking sharply... Worry, progress is not easy, and regress slips away.
