Wei Dong's roar shocked everyone present.

Everyone stared at the figure on the light curtain, then turned their heads to compare the real version of Ke Xun, then stared at the light curtain to ponder, and then turned to analyze the live version of Ke Xun...

After analyzing these negatives with Mu Yiran last night, Ke Xun was already mentally prepared, but when he saw the big figure of himself on the wall, he still couldn't adapt: "It's too close, take a picture of me. Gotta be a little fat."

Crowd: …

"This is a complete mess," Cao Youning started pacing the room. Whenever he passed in front of the light curtain, his huge shadow would appear on the light curtain, as if he was trying to compete with Ke Xun on the wall. Bi Qiang, "This time is so messy, it's obviously all taken at the same time, why are some people eating, some people are not there, and some people are photographing Ke Xun entering the door after turning off the lights? The cat that Ke Xun is holding is Xinchun, right? The cat next to the other window is also Xinchun, right? And the cat squatting beside it while eating... "

"Dog." Luo Meng finally couldn't help it, "Xinchun is a dog."

"Oh, that's right." Cao Youning stood in front of the light curtain, the shadow of Ke Xun on the negative hit his face, and the two dots on Xinchun's eyes on his chest also coincided with Cao Youning's eyes." Anyway, it's completely messed up, there's no rules at all here!"

Mai Peng directly pulled his fat friend from the light curtain, and looked at several old members with a calm expression: "I think Mr. Mu should already understand what's going on."

"That's right, Mr. Mu, hurry up and tell us." Ke Xun looked at Mu Yiran expectantly.

Mu Yiran had already lit a gauze lamp beside him, and the light curtain pattern on the wall was instantly diluted by the warm orange light: "There are indeed rules, and it's a very standard time rule."

At this time, everyone's expressions were different. Some seemed to have already thought of the answer, some seemed to have a half-understanding, and some had no clue at all.

Neither Wei Dong nor Luo Wei had figured it out. At this time, Wei Dong had carefully put away the film and put the magnifying projector back on the public cabinet.

All the lights in the room were lit, and Mu Yiran simply wrote some numbers on a piece of paper: "According to the time we estimated yesterday, the lunch time is about 13:00, and the time to turn off the lights is about 13:00. It was about 14:00, about an hour after the lights were turned off, Mai Peng started taking pictures, assuming that time was 15:00.

"Mai Peng took three photos at 15:00. The first photo shows a half-empty room with Xinchun squatting by the window. This is an incalculable point in time; The content of the second photo is very clear. It is the scene of us having lunch at 13:00. The third photo is when the lights are turned off at 14:00, when Ke Xun holds Xinchun and prepares to walk into the room. scene.

"The shutter speed of the camera used in the second photo is 1/60 second, and the photo was taken at 13:00; the speed of the third photo was 1/30 second, and the light was just turned off at 14:00; 1 photo, the fastest speed was 1/250 second, but it was a scene we didn't seem to have experienced before - Xinchun was squatting by the window alone, her eyes were bright, obviously after the lights were turned off. ."

Qin Ci couldn't help but said: "I just don't understand it here, if the 1/60th and 1/30th of a second are all in the past, and there is a one-hour delay between each time point, then 1/ What is it that was captured in 250 seconds?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Mu Yiran again with a question, but Mu Yiran's eyes turned to the position by the window, and then said to Xinchun: "There was an animal exactly like Xinchun in the photo just now, so I squatted down. by the window."

As if she could understand, Xinchun jumped to the window with a "woo woo woo", as if she wanted to find the dog that imitated her.

Fang Fei couldn't help taking a breath: "I remembered, there was indeed such a time last night. Just when the film was just washed out and we all gathered around the table to look at the film, Xinchun saw this. Zhang was also startled, jumped directly from the table to the bed, and then ran to the window, as if trying to find the dog that imitated himself - exactly as it is now."

Fang Fei was not used to talking so much at once, and she quickly returned to silence after speaking.

After Fang Fei's reminder, most people remembered the scene last night, and Luo Meng suddenly realized: "No wonder those people on the bed were not photographed in the photo, because all the people gathered at the table to watch the film at that time. Only Xinchun ran to the window! It was the scene at that time, which was captured by the camera strangely."

"At that time, the film had already been developed, which means that the time point occurred after the photo was taken," Shao Ling also clarified what was going on. "After the photo was taken, everyone immediately started preparing the developing tank to wash the film. , the time before and after is at most an hour, if the time for taking pictures is 15:00, then the time when everyone gathers to watch the film should be 16:00.”

Wei Dong was stunned, and said to Fang Fei next to him, "I didn't expect the camera to capture the future. It's amazing."

Fang Fei nodded and didn't want to say anything at first, but seeing Wei Dong looking at her, she said, "Although it's a bit messy, as long as you find the center point, you should be able to find the rules."

"Yes, yes." Wei Dong nodded, and together with Fang Fei, they cast their expectant eyes on Mu Yiran again.

Mu Yiran continued to live up to expectations: "I'm not good at photography, but I speculate that in the shutter speed of the camera, between 1/250 second and 1/60 second, there should be a speed point, which is likely to be a more commonly used point. speed."

Mai Peng took over the words: "Yes, it is 1/125 second, this speed is often suitable for people who walk normally on a sunny day, this is the most commonly used speed, especially for beginners, they often set the shutter at 1/125th of a second, because as long as you don't take special pictures, you generally can't go wrong with this shutter."

Mu Yiran wrote down 1/125 of a second on the paper: "This speed should be the center point that Fang Fei said just now. If you guess correctly, the photos taken at this speed should be the most normal instant photos at the time point. , Unfortunately, this speed was not used in the 4 photos taken yesterday, so it caused everyone to be at a loss."

Shao Ling carefully looked at the series of speed seconds written by Mu Yiran on the paper: "That is to say, with 1/125 second as the center point, when the speed is faster than this time, the same location will be photographed in the future. Scenario; when the speed is slower than this time, what happened in the past at this location is filmed.”

1/125th of a second is like a modern time. If it is slower than this speed, the past is captured; if it is faster than this speed, the future is captured.

Mai Peng looked at the camera hanging on his chest and couldn't believe that this ordinary camera was endowed with such a magical function in this world.

Du Lingyu also slowly figured out this matter: "If it is calculated at 15:00 when Mai Peng took the picture last night, that is to say, if Mai Peng took the picture at a speed of 1/125 second, the It's the real-time scene at 15:00 - and Mai Peng chose 1/250 of a second, which pushed the time back to 16:00, and captured the future scene where everyone was not in the camera because of the film; Mai Peng chose 1/ At 60 seconds, it was 1/125 second slower than the center point, so the time was pushed forward by an hour, and the scene when Ke Xun came back with the dog just after the lights went out at 14:00 was photographed; choose 1/30 At 2 seconds, it is two blocks behind the center point, which pushes it forward two hours, and it captures the scene two hours ago at 13:00, when everyone happened to have lunch."

Du Lingyu, after finishing his analysis, looked at Mu Yiran with some unconfidence: "I don't know if what I said just now is correct."

Mu Yi nodded: "Not bad at all."

In order to make it clearer to everyone, Mu Yiran directly wrote the time corresponding to each shutter speed on the paper: 1/125 second, normal; 1/60 second, one hour earlier; 1/30 second, two hours earlier ; 1/250 of a second, delayed by one hour.

Lu Heng also gradually came to understand, and his voice was a little murmur at this time: "Then, the one I took is the one where Xiayu had an accident. I used 1/16 of a second."

"The time for that one is even earlier. The time we first came to the painting was about 10:00 in the morning. The time for you to go to the second floor to check the situation should be around 11:00 in the morning. At that time, it took 1/ 16 seconds to shoot..." Mu Yiran wrote down the time of 1/16 second on the paper, "I would like to ask, are there any other speed gears between 1/30 second and 1/16 second?"

Lu Heng replied, "No, at least I don't have this camera now."

"The progress of this time point may be gradually advanced by the hour, for example, one hour ahead or one hour behind the wrong speed according to each speed gear, if this is the case, 1/16 of a second is taken three hours ago. Scenario, three hours before 11:00 is 8:00." Mu Yiran said.

"This time should be correct. We came in at 10:00, and we hadn't come to this world at 8:00. It is very likely that Xiayu had an accident at that time." Lu Heng analyzed.

"There is another possibility," Mu Yiran drew another line on the advancing line of time, "The advancement of time is not calculated hour by hour, but multiplied, and 1/125 of a second is the center Point, 1/60th of a second was an hour ago, 1/30th of a second was two hours ago, 1/16th of a second was 4 hours ago, 1/8th of a second was 8 hours ago, 1/4th of a second was 16 hours ago…”

Everyone listened word for word, and Wei Dong couldn't help but open his mouth: "If this is the case, wouldn't we be able to photograph things from a long time ago and a long time later?"
