Bai Liu didn't stay in the children's orphanage for a long time. He was about to play with Mu Ke. After simply scanning the contents of the orphanage, he was ready to leave.
But before Bai Liu left, he had to briefly explain to Lu Yizhan.
So Bai Liu asked Mu Ke to go home first to wait for him. When the young master left, he looked back at Bai Liu reluctantly and asked when Bai Liu would be back. Bai Liu simply asked Mu Ke to take the key to his house and wait. Demuke's father looked at Bai Liu's eyes a little bit wrong.
As soon as Bai Liu came out, he saw the Lu post station leaning against the entrance of the orphanage and waiting for him.
When Lu Yizhan saw Bai Liu, he couldn't help but teased: "What about the little master? Drive a Thousand Hawthorn car and turn behind your ass, and keep staring at me. When did you have this charm?"
Bai Liumian flirted with him and went back, "What's the use of being attractive, I didn't turn him down for you, let him go first."
Lu Yizhan couldn't help but laugh, but soon he calmed down and started talking serious: "How about you looking inside?"
Bai Liu didn't rush: "In addition to the poisoned children, there are missing children in this orphanage. I know about the poisoned children. I guess the missing children. I guess this is not the first incident in this orphanage, right?"
"How do you know?" Lu Yizhan was startled.
"The attitude is wrong." Bai Liu calmly analyzed, "The teacher gave me the wrong feeling. Normal people would avoid such places where disappearances have occurred. But when she introduced us, she was afraid, but she was still subconscious. I walked to the missing place, the children’s amusement park."
"This is not the first time that the attitude of disappearance has occurred. It is very likely that this kind of fearful but accustomed attitude will only occur after it has occurred several times."
"Yes." Lu Yizhan grabbed the cigarette he put away a little irritably again. "We have known with the dean. It is said that it has been almost every year for ten years."
Bai Liu asked back: "You should have a record of such disappearances that have happened every year. Why haven't you heard of it before?"
"Because they weren't missing, most of the children ran away by themselves. Even if they reported it, they were treated as running away from home." Lu Yizhan's teeth were rubbed on the cigarette holder and his eyes were dull. "It may have been mentioned in the record. , It’s not conspicuous if you don’t pay attention."
The missing children in the private orphanage are totally thankless. They can’t find and have no parents or relatives to scold you to urge you. The missing cases reported on and off like this are put on hold, and there are only a few lines of records. With these disappeared children, they are all annihilated in the sea.
"Before I found out that the group of entrepreneurs invested in this children's orphanage, and after they got better, I checked the orphanage exactly." Lu Yizhan exhaled a wisp of smoke, "but this private orphanage is not public. The registration of the orphanage in China is so strict, and it is more of a private self-supervisory control. It is not easy to say whether the records we get are true records at a specific time and how many children are there."
"For example, if the child disappeared, the dean did not report it for a few years. We probably didn't know it."
Lu Yizhan was silent for a while and then said: "I tend to suspect that the entrepreneurs have problems, but they have gained a double reputation now, and it has been so many years. We have no evidence here, and there is no way to investigate further."
Bai Liu added indifferently: "Suppose even if this group of entrepreneurs really did something with certain children back then, without knowing the names of these children and where they came from, they are very It is possible to use such a missing trick to make these children quietly disappear from this orphanage. You have no idea to investigate."
"Yes." Lu Yizhan took a deep breath, and he choked. "But Bai Liu, this is human life."
Lu Yizhan looked at Bai Liu with red eyes: "I am not reconciled. The lives of these children have been classified as accidents in this way. Even if it is really an accident, all other possibilities that are not accidents have to be ruled out. I am reconciled. But now —"
"You have no evidence." Bai Liu looked at Lulu Station very calmly, "You can't rule it out. This is not your scope of work. It's a lot of nosy that you can come to the scene."
Lu Yizhan was quiet for a while, and soon this guy talked about the disappearance with Bai Liu, if nothing had happened.
Lu Yizhan has a peculiar resilience in him. Bai Liu would not touch one thing if he knew that he could not do it. But as long as Lu Yizhan felt that it could help others, how much wasted effort was spent. People will try to do it.
And will pull Bai Liu together.
Lu Yizhan and Bai Liu talked about the specific missing cases he had learned, and showed Bai Liu the missing children and photos every year. The photos were taken from the Children’s Day of the orphanage each year. Lu Yizhan took the photos and used his mobile phone Show Bai Liu what the missing children are.
When the first one came out, Lu Yizhan was strangely silent for a while.
Because there is Bai Liu among the missing children in this photo.
"You think he looks a lot like me at fourteen, right?" Bai Liu asked Lu Yizhan directly on Bai Liu's face, commenting plainly, "I also think it's very similar."
"You don't look like it at all." Lu Yizhan's voice was low, his eyes focused on Bai Liu, and he rarely stubbornly refuted his friend, "Because he is dead, but you are still alive."
—————
"Have you encountered such a situation, Mu Sicheng?" Bai Liu called Mu Sicheng as he walked home, "In the future, as [player], I am sure that my death was in a game copy ten years ago. , And now, ten years later, I am still alive."
"I sound like a grandmother's paradox?" Mu Sicheng's voice came from Bailiu's mobile phone receiver, his tone was surprised, "Bai Liu, your luck is really against the sky, don't say it, I haven't heard it in the game. I've heard of this."
[Grandmother's Paradox] is a time paradox proposed by a science fiction writer. It means that if a person goes back to the past and kills his grandmother, then it is obvious that he no longer exists in the future, so how does he go back to the past? What about
Bai Liu is in this situation now. If he enters the game in the future and dies in a game copy whose timeline is ten years ago, how does he live now
"Parallel universe theory?" Mu Sicheng tried to explain, "The most common explanation of the grandmother's paradox is this. Assuming that the parallel time and space you are in is A, what you see is likely to be the failure of B time and space. Bai Liu loads in our [Game Copy] of A Time and Space."
"Then you'd better not enter the game of this orphanage." Mu Sicheng's voice became more serious and serious, and he advised Bai Liu, "As long as you choose not to enter this game, then you will not die in this game. Another possible space-time parallel to the space-time of your death can be formed."
"I don't think it is the theory of parallel universes." Bai Liu was so sober, he calmly reminded Mu Sicheng, "Our [real world] is the [official version] of a game, and the result presented is the [public beta version of the game world]. The final result of all existing game algorithms in 】, theoretically there is no parallel universe derived from various events with different directions."
"Because the reality we are in is already the result of all possibilities, it is impossible to be parallel."
"That's true." Mu Sicheng affirmed this, but he quickly reacted, "No, wait, but if the result presented is the only one, it doesn't mean you will definitely die in that tenth place. Is it in the copy of the game from years ago?!"
"But I'm still alive now, it proves that I didn't die in that copy." Bai Liu thought clearly," Otherwise, the two propositions [I am alive] and [I am dead] exist at the same time, in the impossible parallel, the only existence in reality. Here is a paradox."
"That..." Mu Sicheng was puzzled, "what's going on."
Bai Liu didn't have any doubts about Mu Sicheng, he had already walked to the door of the house and took out the key to open the door.
Bai Liu held the phone on one of his shoulders and asked, "When are you going to enter the game?"
"Why?" Mu Sicheng was bald when talking about this, "Fuck, yesterday I promised that you had insomnia all night after participating in the competition. What can you do? I can do it for twenty-six times in two months. Work hard, but you should at least get people together for me!"
"That's what I want to tell you. I want you to help me bring a couple of newcomers." Bai Liu said quickly, "Xiang Chunhua and Liu Fu, they are the first players in the previous batch of newcomers. , All have personal skills, panel quality C+, you take them through a first-level copy to practice your skills, teach them some basic knowledge of this game, don’t protect them too much."
After Bai Liu came back from the hot pot yesterday, he negotiated with Xiang Chunhua and Liu Fu. He asked the two middle-aged people whether they would like to participate in the league and honestly informed each other of the danger.
But Xiang Chunhua and Liu Fu hardly hesitated. The two shook hands with each other in tears. They only asked Bai Liu two questions from beginning to end:
The first one is: "As long as we win, we can resurrect Guoguo, right?"
"Theoretically yes." Bai Liu said, "but you should be able to slowly realize this wish by accumulating points in a normal game. There is no such risk in the league, but the league will gain points faster. You can think about it tomorrow. answer me."
However, Xiang Chunhua looked at Liu Fu awkwardly. She held her apron tightly with her hands. The TV behind her was still broadcasting the news that Li Gou was likely to die.
This news was replayed, and the sound was loud. The whole room was full of male hosts of [the suspect in the case of the broken body of a senior high school girl will be sentenced to death] without ups and downs.
Xiang Chunhua looked at Bai Liu earnestly:
"What kind of competition are we going to participate in, can we help you?"-This is the second question they asked.
Bai Liu was quiet for a moment: "Yes, but the death rate in this game is very high, you may be able to think about it more..."
"Let's go." Xiang Chunhua laughed, there were still tears in her eyes, and she wiped it off with the back of her hand, "Don't think about it anymore, we believe you, Bai Liu, and where to accumulate points is not to accumulate? Isn't it just to play games? Did I belong to our school’s women’s volleyball team, right?”
