Ji Thrush once again exchanged glances with Mo Tiangen.

Although the muttering voice of the muscular man in the blue sportswear was very soft, but based on the few words that were revealed, they were almost sure that these people—at least this person, were different from them, and he must know something about them. Unknown information.

But Ji Thrush and Mo Tiangen couldn't ask directly.

If they asked directly, it would be tantamount to showing their timidity, exposing their ignorance of the situation, and losing their bargaining chip in obtaining information.

In front of strangers who are not familiar with the details, sometimes it is necessary to pretend to be aggressive.

So Ji Thrush suppressed the mountainous and sea-like questions, with a calm expression, turned back to Ren Jianmo, pretended to bend down to get his mountaineering bag, took advantage of the opportunity with his back to everyone, raised his left index finger, and kissed it to his lips. He made a "shut up" gesture.

Ren Jianmo glanced at him, but didn't express his opinion, wondering if he understood.

Ji Thrush couldn't make any more hints, and only hoped that this beautiful woman who unfortunately suffered from amnesia would be smarter and not directly tear down their station with a word of carelessness.

But when he thought about it, Ren Jianmo was not a talkative character. If no one asked him questions, he couldn't get a fart out of his hands, so he just had to pay more attention later and don't let him talk to these newcomers. If the person contacts alone, there is probably no need to worry about leaking.

In fact, even Ji Thrush himself didn't realize it, obviously he and Ren Jianmo had only known each other for less than half an hour, and he already unconsciously regarded Ren Jianmo as "one of our own".

Just like he used to take care of teammates younger than himself in the team, captain Xiaoniao spread his wings like a mother hen, fluttering, trying to bring people into his shelter.

Ji Thrush picked up the mountaineering bag, opened it, and distributed drinking water and food to the six newcomers.

While distributing things, he paid attention to these people.

Except for the big-cheeked man in a blue sportswear, the other five people are all young people in their twenties and thirties, two men and three women, a couple and a pair of good girlfriends, and A haggard man dressed as an office worker.

These five people all looked shocked and bewildered, and they definitely didn't seem to have a good idea of their situation.

Ji Thrush didn't say much, just greeted them to have something to eat first, and when facing the three young girls, he even said a few words of comfort.

Probably because Ji Xiaoniao's appearance is too soft and deceptive. Seeing his kind and peaceful attitude, those few people unconsciously felt panicked and calmed down. Give him a wry smile of thanks.

Ji Thrush finally came to the strong man in the blue sportswear, and asked with a smile, "Do you want something to eat?"

The muscular man in blue stared at him for a long while before taking the bread.

"you… "

His cheeks twitched, he turned his head to look at Mo Tiangen who was beside him, and finally cast his gaze on Ren Jianmo who was a little far away.

After going back and forth three times like this, he struggled to utter two words, "You guys can't all be..."

But that's all he said, and he suddenly stopped his voice as if he suddenly remembered something.

"Oh?"

Ji Thrush was not in a hurry, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "It can't be all of them?"

This time, the strong man in blue shut his mouth like a mussel, and refused to say a word.

The six newcomers were obviously very hungry. After getting the water and food, they sat down on the floor without being polite to them, unpacked them, and started to gobble them up.

Ji Thrush noticed that they seemed to be faintly centered on the strong man in blue, and they didn't dare to disperse even when they were resting.

He didn't say much, he just returned to Ren Jianmo's side generously and continued with the unfinished meal.

"Hey."

Mo Tiangen also came over, lowered his voice and said to them: "What do you think...?"

He omitted the subject, but it didn't affect Ji Thrush's understanding.

"It's hard to say about the other five, but 'he' sure knows something."

Ji Thrush bit the accent on the word "he".

Mo Tiangen nodded slightly by chewing the sausage. At the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the strong man in blue cast his eyes on them several times, and his anxiety could not be concealed.

"Those eyebrows and mouse eyes are not good at first glance."

Teacher Dagen leads more than 400 students in a school year every year, and he can read countless people when he asks himself, and he has a bit of insight to see the essence through the face.

When he saw Ji Thrush for the first time, he thought the baby had a good face.

As the name suggests, Ji Xiaoniao is a pretty baby-faced student with curly sheep-like hair, a delicate nose and mouth, and a pair of almond-shaped eyes, big and bright, but the tails of the eyes are slender and somewhat The slight sagging makes the whole person's temperament look particularly well-behaved.

Teacher Mo looked at him as if he saw those good-tempered top students in the school, and couldn't help feeling a three-point closeness to him.

As for Ren Jianmo... Mo Tiangen admitted that he had no idea how deep this person was.

People who are too ugly or too beautiful will inevitably have a sense of distance from other people, especially Ren Jianmo's stunning appearance, cold temperament, and extremely mysterious origin, just like the NPC in RPG games, especially unreal.

So even if Ren Jianmo claims to have amnesia and doesn't know what to ask, Mo Tiangen can hardly feel angry or disappointed with him. If you don't show it, how can you reveal it casually

As for Ji Thrush, Mo Tiangen felt that he was right for his eyes; as for Ren Jianmo, he didn't want to and didn't dare to say too much before he thoroughly found out the identity of the other party.

But the strong man in blue is different.

Regardless of other things, just the guard in the eyes of the other party looked at them, which made Mr. Dagen feel like a thorn in his back. Even if the strong man in blue hasn't done anything yet, just this obvious hostility is worth their vigilance.

"Look, it's not just us."

The three sat together, eating and talking in low voices.

Ji Thrush stretched out his hand, tapped the unremovable black watch on his left wrist, and said, "Those people over there all wear the same watch."

Mo Tiangen turned around and pretended to rummage through his bags, and quickly scanned the six new arrivals, "That's right, they are indeed wearing them too."

He paused, "So, anyone who appears in this city will definitely wear this kind of watch?"

Ji Thrush nodded.

Ren Jianmo, on the other hand, didn't seem to hear what the two were saying at all, and just concentrated on eating with his head down.

Mo Tian didn't expect Ren Damei to condescend to open his golden mouth at all, and he didn't care, and continued to analyze: "I guess, this watch may be some kind of timing tool, it can show that we have come to this damn place How long has the place been... just like the plot progress bar in an RPG game."

Ji Thrush nodded again.

He has also made several guesses about the purpose of this watch, and Mr. Mo's hypothesis is also one of the various possibilities he conceived.

"Also, there is one more thing."

Mo Tiangen raised his hand, nodded slightly in the direction of the six people, and said:

"Except for the muscular man in the blue tracksuit, I've seen the other five people in 'that car'."

"'That car'?"

Ji Thrush froze for a moment, then opened his eyes wide, "You mean, the maglev rail car we were riding in?!"

Mo Tiangen nodded with certainty.

He got on the car early, and just happened to sit in the last row of the maglev rail car that derailed and fell into the bridge. He was so bored along the way that he could only pass the time by watching the passengers coming and going on the car.

So he noticed the classic tomato scrambled egg-colored uniforms worn by Ji Thrush and his teammates. When he saw Ji Thrush in the city, he immediately recognized this baby-faced uniform. Little Curly is one of those young athletes.

But now, after careful identification, he is 90% sure that apart from the muscular man in blue with unfriendly eyes, the couple, the girlfriends, and the office worker with a haggard face, all of them should have had an accident in that car at that time. on the maglev rail car.

"I see."

Ji Thrush imitated the signature pose of a well-known detective, touched his chin, and then turned to look at Mo Tiangen, "Except for the strong man in blue, everyone else is in the car—are you sure about that?"

"The five people, I can only be sure about seven points at most."

Teacher Dagen shrugged and replied honestly: "As for the one in the blue tracksuit, I'm 100% sure that he must not be in that car."

What he didn't tell the two was that he was so sure out of a state of mind akin to that of a male peacock showing off his feathers.

Mo Tiangen is a fitness freak, and he is very confident in his beautiful muscles.

Just like a girl who is losing weight will always involuntarily observe whether the young girls on the street are fat or thin, Mr. Dagen also pays special attention to the figures of men.

Therefore, he believed that if the strong man in blue was also in the car at that time, he would have noticed it immediately because of his bulging tendons.

"So, I have a bold guess."

Ji Thrush flexed his index finger and tapped his chin twice, "If you say that the people on the rail car at that time were just like you and me, they came here out of nowhere, but they didn't know what happened if… "

As he spoke, he raised his hand, and under the cover of his body, he pointed in the direction of the muscular man in blue, and then raised his chin towards Ren Jianmo, "It's probably not the first time for people like them to experience this This is the case."

"So when that person saw us, he said the word 'experienced'?"

Mo Tiangen thought about it for a while, and understood, "Because he felt that we were acting too calmly and didn't look like a newcomer, so he suspected that we are also 'experienced' just like him?"

He turned his head to look at Ren Damei who had been silent all this time, "So, this is not the 'first time' for you?"

Ren Jianmo didn't answer right away.

He frowned, thinking for a moment with a serious expression on his face, "I don't remember."

He paused for a moment, raised his head, and looked in the direction of the strong man in blue with two different colored eyes, one dark and one shallow.

"Although I don't remember what happened to me before."

Ren Jian paused for a moment, and then said something surprising:

"I'm pretty sure, though, that the man had a gun."
