Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]
Chapter 178 1992-2020
After get off work, the key in the pocket appeared miraculously by itself, which shows that the disappearance of the key is indeed not artificial.
The meaning of this is obvious, it is to make him commute to get off work on time and live as in reality.
Xu Rendong and Lian Qiao returned home, but they didn't feel tired at all.Compared with playing dungeons, the company's work is really much easier - although they are actually doing copying, Xu Rendong often has this illusion:
He has returned to reality.
The layout of the home is also a little different from when he went out in the morning.The luggage has already returned to its proper place, and the furniture is not as brand new as before.It's just that there is still an empty feeling in the house.
Xu Rendong stood in the porch for a while, and understood.
"One pair of slippers is missing," he said.
Xu Rendong went to the shoe cabinet to find a pair of slippers and put them together with his own slippers.Two pairs of slippers are placed side by side in the entrance, and the familiar feeling comes.
Lian Qiao's eyes became hot, he smiled and rubbed his hair, and said helplessly and pitifully, "What kind of life did you live before you met me?"
Xu Rendong lowered his head, said while changing his shoes, "If I had never seen the light, I could have endured the darkness."
Lian Qiao was taken aback.
Xu Rendong smiled at him: "Come in. Cook quickly, I'm so hungry."
Lian Qiao's cooking skills are as satisfactory as ever.This is the first time they cook by themselves in the instance.Holding the steaming rice bowl in his hands, Xu Rendong couldn't help feeling: "It's really like going out..."
Lian Qiao: "Calm down." He scooped up a spoonful of hair from the soup bowl, and the muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
That strand of long hair obviously didn't belong to the cook.Xu Rendong lost his appetite in an instant, and said helplessly, "Okay. Let's see if other dishes are still available."
Fortunately, nothing strange appeared in other meals.Lian Qiao dumped the Tanglianpaner into the trash can, then picked up the rice bowl again, and quickly settled the meal with Liandong.
After eating, the two discussed what happened today.
"The fence of the subway disappeared in front of you, and the subway that was supposed to brake didn't slow down at all when it entered the station. If I hadn't pulled you back, you would have been crushed to death." Lian Qiao said.
Xu Rendong nodded: "There are also hairs pulling me in the tunnel. That must be Auntie Long-haired."
"Also there was a ghost in the company today. But the monk's ghost didn't cause any real harm to you, he just seemed to want to scare you..." Lian Qiao pondered, "Why is that?"
Liandong was silent for a moment, and said, "Maybe because he still has the memories of his life, so he doesn't want to hurt me?"
Lian Qiao's mouth twitched, and he unconsciously made a mocking smile: "Don't he know who killed him? He doesn't want revenge?"
"Maybe?"
Lian Qiao narrowed his eyes: "Do you regret it?"
Xu Rendong felt that this topic was not suitable to continue, so he said: "Let's not talk about this. There are only three days left in 2020, and there is not much time left. I want to go out and explore again to see if there is any whereabouts of the button."
Lian Qiao's expression softened, but he shook his head and denied him: "No. I think we should recharge our batteries for the last day of the battle."
According to the current trend, there will undoubtedly be a big battle on the day of 2020.I'm afraid that the group of teammates who died in the university will turn into ghosts and come to seek revenge one after another.
Thinking of this, Xu Rendong didn't have much fear in his heart.Anyway, they have already grasped the weakness of ghosts, that is, they are afraid of chanting scriptures.It doesn't matter how many ghosts come.
The difficulty is that they must show up at the intersection outside the company parking lot on time at ten o'clock in the evening in 2020, otherwise they may miss the big truck and the elevator that came with it.
Although the condition for the elevator to appear is only Xu Rendong's personal guess, there is no more reasonable answer other than that.Even Joe agrees.
However, Lian Qiao said next: "The ghosts in this scene seem to be strengthened. I suspect that it will not be so easy to fight by then."
Liandong was surprised, and after thinking about it, she understood the reason why he said this.
very simple.The ghosts in this scene are no longer afraid of the sun, and can blatantly appear in broad daylight.
"Do you think this could be..." Xu Rendong thought about his words, "Uh, the characteristic after being killed? Half human and half ghost, so it can appear during the day?"
"It's possible." Lian Qiao frowned and sighed, "This will be troublesome. If the ghost can also appear during the day this time, then we might have to fight for 2020 hours in a row on the day of 24..."
Liandong corrected him: "It should be 22 hours. The elevator should show up at ten o'clock in the evening."
Lian Qiao smiled bitterly: "Two hours is not much difference. Let's go to bed early today."
Liandong also felt pressured after hearing this.So after a simple wash, the two turned off the lights and went to bed.
In the darkness, Liandong felt that Lian Qiao hugged him.Can't help struggling lightly: "Didn't you say to have a good rest? Don't...don't do it today, right?"
Lian Qiao's voice was gentle and low: "Well, don't do it. I'll just hug you."
Xu Rendong has been made to suffer from delusions of persecution by him these days, and he really can't believe his nonsense.But Lian Qiao's embrace was warm and familiar, and he was really reluctant to push it away.Under all kinds of entanglements, he could only say one sentence as if accepting his fate: "You can't lie to me."
Lian Qiao smiled softly, leaned over and kissed his forehead: "I promise you."
This kiss had a strong comforting meaning, which made Liandong's heart settle down at once.
Lian Qiao really did what he said, after the kiss, he didn't do any excessive movements, just stretched his arms under his neck and let him pillow himself.
The muscles on Lian Qiao's arms were strong and well-proportioned, and the pillow was very comfortable to lean on.Liandong couldn't help stroking the lines of his arms, and the scene of being held up and down by his waist emerged in her mind.
……Oops.I obviously told him not to act recklessly, but why did I start thinking about it myself?
Xu Rendong secretly scolded himself for his double standards, and chanted Buddhist scriptures to force himself to calm down.
Just like that, the night passed.
Probably because Xu Rendong had a good night's sleep after returning to his familiar home.Wake up feeling refreshed.
The two left the apartment after breakfast.Sure enough, as soon as the door of the apartment was locked, the keychain in his pocket disappeared.Instead, a car key.
In real life, Xu Rendong bought a car at this point in time.At that time, he had already started to deal with some work with customers, so buying a car became a rigid need.
Driving to the company, Xu Rendong found that today's colleagues were different from yesterday, and there were a few acquaintances.
Their industry is highly mobile, and it is common for colleagues around them to change.Looking at the familiar face, Xu Rendong's feeling of not knowing where he is is getting stronger and stronger.He had to turn his head to look at Lian Qiao, reminding himself that this is not reality.
Lian Qiao looked at him and said, "Sure enough, the acquaintance showed up."
Liandong faintly felt that he seemed to be expecting an answer, and said, "Don't worry. If they do something to me, I won't show mercy."
Lian Qiao smiled: "That's good."
The work in the morning was nothing special, except for ghost images flashing on the computer screen, hair growing out after drinking tea, and a scarred face floating in the toilet, everything was normal.
Seriously, Honeysuckle is still thankful for these little hauntings.This made him sober, reminding himself repeatedly that even if he is a familiar colleague and boss, he should not be soft-hearted when necessary.
However, at noon, the new boss called him over and gave him an unexpected task.
——Meet clients.
It’s really nothing to connect with customers, but the special thing is that the customer this time is his college roommate.
Liandong doesn't quite remember whether she has experienced this in reality.But if it comes, it's safe, anyway, there is only a glass door between the reception room and the office area of their department, and even Joe is sitting outside, so even if something happens, he will be taken care of.
The roommate seemed to really come to discuss business with him.After Xu Rendong recorded the customer's needs, the roommate loosened his tie and smiled with a relaxed posture: "I didn't expect to meet you here."
Looks like we're going to start chatting next.
Xu Rendong did not relax, but listened to the words of his roommate with more concentrated attention than before.
"I didn't expect to meet you here either." He said neither humble nor humble.
My roommate asked, "How are you doing after college?"
Lonicera: "As you can see, it's pretty good. How about you?"
The roommate laughed and said, "Hey, I couldn't find a good job, so I had to go home and inherit the family business."
Liandong: "..." He glanced at the well-known big company on his old classmate's business card, and couldn't manage his expression for a moment.
"By the way, why is your brother here?" The roommate pointed out the glass door.
This glass door is transparent on one side, only the inside can see the outside, and the outside cannot see the inside.When Liandong heard the word "your brother", he was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was talking about Lian Qiao.
Liandong involuntarily looked at Lian Qiao outside the glass door.I saw him staring here with his brows furrowed, his eyes unblinking.He didn't know that he was being watched, so the worry on his face was unreserved.
Liandong's heart was sweetened, and he raised the corner of his mouth and said: "Because of some coincidence, he also joined this company."
"Oh." The roommate then asked, "Then how is your sister-in-law?"
……sister in law?
Liandong looked at her roommate in surprise.The roommate stuck out his tongue: "Uh, your brother won't change partners, right? Sorry."
... Whether to change or not, you first explain to me what is going on with "sister-in-law"!
Liandong narrowed her eyes, lowered her voice unconsciously, and began to tell her roommate: "He has so many lovers, which 'sister-in-law' of mine are you talking about?"
The roommate scratched his head: "It's just... the one I saw when I was a freshman."
Liandong was stunned: "Freshman?"
The roommate said: "Do you remember, on the first day of freshman year, your brother sent you to school. Later, when you were not feeling well, your brother helped you go to buy food. Some of our roommates went up with him, and later helped you Bring the food back."
"—That's when I saw your sister-in-law, er, no, it was his girlfriend at the time. Anyway, that's what your brother told us... That girl is so pretty, with red cheeks, like apples, and very cute. She It seems that there is something urgent to find your brother, your brother took her away, and forgot to give us the meal money..."
The meaning of this is obvious, it is to make him commute to get off work on time and live as in reality.
Xu Rendong and Lian Qiao returned home, but they didn't feel tired at all.Compared with playing dungeons, the company's work is really much easier - although they are actually doing copying, Xu Rendong often has this illusion:
