Forces of Temptation

At this point, all of Nanzhou's weird behaviors became reasonable.

There was also a reasonable explanation for his sudden smashing of the newsstand while he was sitting well.

Nan Zhou also admitted this: "When I was halfway through the drawing, I found that I could understand most of the things on the car, only the magazines, and I couldn't figure out where they came from."

Before entering the instance, they took an inventory of all the props on hand and distributed them to everyone as needed.

The only magazine prop in their hands is the [pornographic magazine] that can attract attention.

But the seal is completely different.

So Nanzhou decided to go to the newsstand to find out.

But Yuan Mingqing clearly remembered that just now, when he was attracted to the newsstand by the sound of broken glass, Nan Zhou was not standing in front of the magazine rack.

In this regard, Nanzhou's explanation is——

"I don't know much about the brands of beverages." Nanzhou said, "I thought all beverage bottles were sold in the system."

I didn't expect that the flowers are so colorful and beautiful.

...Although the timing and occasion were wrong, but after hearing Nanzhou's description, Li Yinhang couldn't help imagining a little wild cat aggressively jumping into the window to look for food, but was caught by a cat toy that he had never seen before. The look that caught the eye.

But in the next second, she couldn't be happy.

Yuan Mingqing: "...so, that magazine is..."

Nan Zhou looked at Yuan Mingqing, nodded, and agreed with his judgment: "Yeah."

"The one I saw on the train was the one you picked up when you came to see me."

Yuan Mingqing broke out in a cold sweat.

——He discovered that everything formed a strange closed loop.

Because Nanzhou saw the magazines spread out in advance in the No. 3 compartment of the train, and did not understand the origin of the magazines, he forced to open the newsstand to check.

I was attracted by the noise, and I didn't want to look too deliberate, so I picked up a magazine and looked at it.

Nan Zhou realized that the magazine he was holding happened to be the one he had seen, so he inadvertently stared at it for a while.

And because of Nan Zhou's glance, he became suspicious of the magazine, and took the magazine back to the car to read.

This magazine appeared on the car and became part of the future in the car that Nan Zhou saw.

Connected end to end, a perfect echo.

As the flight attendant said, the terminal of this train is indeed "the future".

Possibly a bloody future.

It could also be a revised, infinitely brighter future.

He muttered to himself: "...the Mobius strip."

Li Yinhang had heard of this term before.

It probably refers to a curved surface ring that twists a piece of paper tape 180 degrees, and then glues the end to the end.

If you put an ant on it, a strange phenomenon will appear:

The ant crawls around the paper ring, and can crawl over both sides of the paper without crossing the edge of the paper.

Taking ants as an example, this is a general example when explaining the "Möbius strip" and helping to understand this concept.

Therefore, the teacher who taught her this concept once joked with them that for every Möbius strip in the world, an ant was killed.

They are the group of ants that were unknowingly put on the Möbius strip.

This paper tape that exists in nothingness is about to lead them to the road of no return that was shown to them.

But in Li Yinhang's view, the cycle is not difficult to solve.

As long as the ants are willing to jump off this paper tape, this endless cycle of hell can be ended.

The premise is that they must trust all the information given by Nanzhou.

Nanzhou has also made great efforts for this.

In order to gain trust, he even sat alone in the fog for hours.

Li Yinhang, who had always trusted Nanzhou unconditionally, secretly looked at Chen Sufeng and Yuan Mingqing through the corner of the flashlight, and found that they did not have any suspicious expressions, so he couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

What Nanzhou took out can be regarded as a solid hammer.

Even the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties have to believe it.

The paper is torn right away, so there is no possibility of falsification in advance.

Nan Zhou's strange behavior made Yuan Mingqing very concerned about his whereabouts, and kept watching him through the window; the compartments were even more transparent, and Nan Zhou didn't have the leeway to sneak into the car to fake the scene.

Of course, it is impossible for Li Yinhang and him to cooperate internally and externally.

Li Yinhang was the third to return to the station after him.

Her every move fell into the eyes of Yuan Mingqing, and she had no time to discuss plans with Nan Zhou.

Even during her rare alone time with Nanzhou, Yuan Mingqing was eavesdropping with a bug.

All the random incidents in the car happened after Nan Zhou refused to board the car.

He can be sure that Li Yinhang did not tell Nan Zhou the time and space for these small changes in the car.

Although the empty water bottle in the first car has not rolled off, the driving record in the second car has not been added, and the ballpoint pen is still clipped to the hard shell backing plate, but the discrepancies in these details are understandable .

It is understandable that Nanzhou could not have expected what happened in the farther future.

After figuring out these joints, Yuan Mingqing's complexion did not improve at all, on the contrary, it became even uglier.

He is holding the future painting of the second car in his hand.

This painting, logically speaking, is not as bloody as the last three carriages, nor is it as intuitive as the "future is happening" in the first and third carriages.

It can be said that everything in the second compartment has not happened yet.

But he still aimed his flashlight firmly at a corner of the screen, his expression extremely pale.

With the fog blocking it, of course Li Yinhang couldn't capture everyone's micro-expressions in real time.

She didn't notice Yuan Mingqing's tenseness at all, and said relaxedly: "Then what should we do?"

"Everything we do now is promoting the future." Nan Zhou said, "If we want to get rid of the future, we only need to make the future impossible at this stage."

This is exactly the same as Li Yinhang's idea.

Just cut the paper loop, and the Möbius strip will unravel naturally.

But Li Yinhang always felt something was wrong.

She remembered that in the driving log, the number of people displayed was "4".

That is to say, among the 5 people in the "Cubic Ark", 4 people get on the car, and 1 person is destined to be alone?

Is Brother Fang not coming back?

Or did they have a fight long before boarding the car and killed a person, thus planting the seeds of some hidden danger?

As a result, just as she was thinking about this, Yuan Mingqing on the side started to attack.

He gritted his molars and said, "So, how do you plan to make this 'impossible' happen in the future?"

"I haven't quite figured it out yet."

Nan Zhou stared at Yuan Mingqing with his misty, wet black eyes, which made him furious.

Yuan Mingqing said angrily: "You still don't plan to get in the car, do you?!"

After hearing what Yuan Mingqing said, Li Yinhang was at a loss.

She didn't have time to think about what "still" meant, she shook her head and said, "...No, no."

She used a flashlight to look around, and found that the painting of the second compartment was in Yuan Mingqing's hands, so she swept a flashlight over and pointed it at the position of the driving recorder.

"Look, it doesn't mean there are four people—"

Chen Sufeng added softly from the side: "The flight attendant also got on the bus."

Li Yinhang was stunned for a moment, and then his eardrums buzzed and boomed.

...Yeah, 4 passengers, not "4 passengers".

Her inertial thinking made her think that there were 4 people who could get on the car in the end.

In the third hour after Nanzhou came back, he asked the flight attendant who would drive in a while.

The flight attendant's answer is that he will drive.

At that time, Li Yinhang could hear it clearly in the train, but he didn't think deeply about it.

It wasn't until now that she understood Nan Zhou's intention for asking this question.

Li Yinhang followed this line of thinking all the way, and the blood of his brothers condensed little by little.

——She finally understood why Nanzhou called all this a "time trap".

Her blood flowed backwards, her palms felt numb, and she whispered, "There are four time traps, right?"

Hearing what she said, Nan Zhou finally turned to her, nodded silently and approvingly.

Chen Sufeng was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

It's normal for him not to understand.

When the Yuan, Ming and Qing surrendered, they told Jiang Fang, Nan Zhou and Li Yinhang the truth about the existence of "Gravity".

Earth is a separate replica world.

In order to better enjoy the game, the high-dimensional people once adjusted the relative high-dimensional time of the earth extremely fast. In their view, the ten thousand years of the earth is just a short day.

They do this just to make the evolution of species faster and to experience the accidental beauty of data collided in the speed of light evolution.

Later, because the calculation was too real, the dinosaurs on the earth became extinct, and the high-dimensional people lost interest in the earth, so they abandoned the copy of the earth.

——This incident shows that they can adjust the time difference between copies.

This is the reason why the Gaowei people split them into 5 small dungeons in the last dungeon, fighting each other.

This is also the first real time trap that was ignored by Li Yinhang.

With a pale face, she analyzed it with Chen Sufeng to clarify her thoughts.

She said: "Gaowei people can show us the 'future'. First, they know that each of us will come back; second, he knows in advance the order of our return."

Surprised, Chen Sufeng buried his head in thought for a while, and asserted: "It is impossible to do these two things."

Yes, in theory, it is impossible.

Whether it was Chen Sufeng's on-the-spot sacrifice to his teammates, or Li Yinhang going out to fight in place of Nanjixing, it was all a flash of inspiration.

What if Li Yinhang had no intention of sacrificing himself at all, and worked so hard to the end, only to miss the train completely?

What if Chen Sufeng didn't succeed in resisting, was sacrificed by his teammates, or stepped on a trap in the tomb, it wouldn't be counted as "self-sacrifice" and he fell in for nothing?

Not to mention them, even Yuan Mingqing, who seemed to be very sure about the dungeon, could not rule out the possibility of being killed by stray bullets in the dungeon.

Assuming that the time at the station and the copy are synchronized, how can the high-dimensional people calculate their future and show it to the first Nanzhou who came back?

Li Yinhang made the decision to sacrifice himself, but when the copy game advanced to the 14th hour.

At that time, Nanzhou had already seen the future in the carriage.

However, as Chen Sufeng said, high-dimensional people cannot predict the future.

If they could predict the future, they would not have agreed to exchange wishes with Jiang Fang because of their arrogance, nor would they have chosen to gamble with Jiang Fang to decide who is the number one in the team list.

but if……

She asked Chen Sufeng in a trembling voice: "What if there is a time difference from Gaowei people?"

"What if this isn't our... first meeting at the station?"
