How can it be
An Wujiu turned his head, frowned and mouthed to Shen Ti.
[Is it Erci? ]
Shen Ti broke the communicator with one shot, then slowly raised the gun, aiming at the pollutants in front of him.
"Don't shoot yet."
An Wujiu grabbed his arm.
He always felt that something was wrong.
An Wujiu took another step closer, followed the bloody smell to check behind the pollutants, only to find that behind her was a lot of raw meat that had been eaten, and the bones were piled together, all of which had been eaten.
This is obviously keeping this pollutant in captivity, and the captive is probably the person on the other end of the communicator just now.
"Let's go find Yirou first."
The more An Wujiu thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong, so he grabbed Shen Ti and ran upstairs.
It's unbelievable, but once it's what he thinks...
Then things are too complicated.
After entering the altar, Zhong Yirou experienced countless bizarre events, many absurd and paradoxical, but she never imagined that the scene in front of her would happen like this.
It turns out that people who die can be resurrected.
The man she couldn't save was pointing a gun at her now.
Zhong Yirou held back the turmoil in her heart and tried her best to persuade herself to calm down. No matter what conspiracy was behind this, whether it was being manipulated by someone, or she was really resurrected, she couldn't collapse now.
"Erci, it's me... you are Erci, right?"
Zhong Yirou raised his two hands as a gesture of non-resistance, "You know me, I'm Zhong Yirou..."
"Enough." Yang Erci acted extremely coldly, frowning, and even showing a trace of disgust.
Zhong Yirou was stung by her eyes, she didn't understand what happened, but she couldn't question it now.
She quickly wiped the tears off her face with the back of her hand, and glanced at Wu You who was still struggling on the shelf.
The injection in the needle should be something like a tranquilizer, which seems to be effective against pollutants.
"Do you want to kill me?" Zhong Yirou stared at Yang Erci in the broken glass, "Since this is the case, why don't you do it?"
Yang Erci frowned again.
Zhong Yirou noticed that her finger moved slightly on the trigger, but she still didn't press it down.
Suddenly, Yang Erci's hand moved, and the object the gun was pointing at was replaced by Wu You who was upside down.
"don't want!"
Zhong Yirou immediately threw herself on Wu You, her arm skin was corroded by Wu You's mucus, but she could hardly feel the pain now, "Don't shoot."
Wu You smelled Zhong Yirou's scent, and immediately withdrew the mucus on the skin for defense.
"You kill me. Don't you want to kill me?" Zhong Yirou leaned on Wu You, looked up at Yang Erci, his eyes were full of panic and bewilderment, "He is Wu You, can't you recognize him? He won't hurt you." Human."
Zhong Yirou was left with nothing but despair at the moment. Both were people she was very familiar with, but one didn't know her and wanted to kill her, and the other was polluted and couldn't hear her.
Yang Erci stood where he was, staring at Zhong Yirou's tearful eyes, and clenched his hand holding the gun even tighter.
Zhong Yirou also stared at her, and only then did she gradually come out of shock and panic. Without looking through the glass, Zhong Yirou suddenly realized that the Yang Erci in front of her was not the same as yesterday when she looked closely with the naked eye.
She clearly wore a white shirt and black trousers yesterday, but now she is wearing a gray and black hoodie that she has never seen before.
Yang Erci did not have this dress in his closet.
Taking a closer look, Zhong Yirou discovered that the hair under her hat was short and medium hair that only reached her shoulders, and it was dyed blue-black.
Not long black hair.
The sight fell on her arm, the sleeve was oozing blood, probably from an injury, the cuff half covered her hand holding the gun, and there seemed to be a scar left by the burn on the back of the hand.
Except for the looks, everything else is not quite right.
Zhong Yirou wondered in a daze, could this not be Yang Erci...
In other words, it wasn't the Yang Erci she knew.
Realizing this, Zhong Yirou felt a chill in his heart.
There is no such thing as Yang Erci being controlled by someone. She has no stab wounds on her chest, and her overall state and complexion are not like those who have died once. What's more, many of her characteristics are different from Yang Erci's, they are different Two bodies.
Zhong Yirou thought of her reaction to the name when he called her Yang Erci just now...
She said "enough" and made no rebuttal.
Is she also called Yang Erci
The thoughts in my mind became more and more complicated, and the deeper I thought about it, the more terrifying the possibilities that emerged.
But how is this possible? How could there be two of her? Zhong Yirou kept denying her thoughts in her heart, but the facts that happened before her made her have to face all this.
They are indeed in the altar now, otherwise how could this happen
Zhong Yirou eagerly wanted to know why another Yang Erci appeared, but she was afraid of angering the one in front of her.
If he really shoots, Wu You will be in danger.
She decided to procrastinate, at least until Wu You recovered a bit, and An Wujiu and Shen Ti appeared.
Yang Erci looked down at her like this, with complicated eyes, as if he wanted to kill her but couldn't do it.
This is not normal, she was obviously the one who pointed a gun at her as soon as she appeared, she could only want to kill her, or force something out of her mouth, but she didn't do either.
Zhong Yirou suddenly thought, maybe this Yang Erci also knew her, and she could tell at a glance that she was not the Zhong Yirou she knew.
There is only one possibility in this situation, that Zhong Yirou is dead, just like what she encountered.
Wu You, who was below her, wrapped her tentacles around Zhong Yirou's hand, and it suddenly occurred to her that there was more than one possibility.
There is another kind, that Zhong Yirou has been polluted...
"You..." Zhong Yirou tried to speak, "You know my face, right?"
She said, and immediately added, "It's just that I'm not the one you're looking for."
The shadow of the hood covers Yang Erci's eyebrows and eyes, and Zhong Yirou's face is reflected in her pupils.
exactly the same...
Yang Erci thought about shooting, this was what she expected, so she made psychological preparations very early.
She was ready when she found out that the guy who looked exactly like her friend appeared in front of them and killed him.
There must be another Zhong Yirou, she may appear at any time.
Can't be confused, must kill her.
"I just guessed so." Zhong Yirou lowered her eyes, then looked up at her again, "I have a...friend." She pursed her lips, "She looks very similar to you, so when I saw you just now, I was mistaken too."
Zhong Yirou looked up at her and said something very foul.
"I won't hurt you, you are too much like her."
Yang Erci's tense nerves unavoidably loosened at this moment, she clearly knew that the one in front of her was not the real Zhong Yirou.
The real her had already become a pollutant, and she was locked in the refrigerator by himself.
But they are exactly the same, even the end of the speech, the expression is exactly the same.
Yang Erci was still in a daze for a moment.
But it was this second of shaking that made her no longer invulnerable. Several tentacles sprang out quickly, attacking Yang Erci like a snake, one hit her wrist directly, forcing her to let go, the gun fell to the ground, and all the other tentacles entangled her body like hunting pythons, killing her. Hang it.
Zhong Yirou didn't expect Wu You to recover so quickly, she hurriedly picked up the gun on the ground and put it in a bag.
Wu You's tentacles wrapped around Yang Erci's neck, squeezing her throat hard. Seeing that she couldn't breathe at all, Zhong Yirou rushed up to pat Wu You's tentacles excitedly.
"Wu You! Wu You, don't pester her, let go!" Zhong Yirou was so anxious that she didn't realize that Wu You was in an offensive state at the moment, her skin was covered with mucus, and even her palms were corroded.
But it was useless, Wu You couldn't hear her voice at all.
Zhong Yirou was about to cry, but she couldn't do anything to Wu You. Seeing that Yang Erci was about to be strangled to death, Wu You even stretched out another tentacle, the tip spread out, and the bloody mouth was full of fangs, aiming at Yang Erci heart.
"don't want!"
But the next moment, his tentacles stopped in the air.
"Wu You, let go of her."
An Wujiu's voice appeared, his calmness was in stark contrast to hers.
Zhong Yirou glanced over there, saw him and Shen Ti, and relaxed in a dangling breath.
After hearing his words, Wu You let go of the hanged tentacles.
Zhong Yirou felt paralyzed all over for a moment, and could only lean on the shelf behind him, and sat on the ground with a slight slip.
The tentacles were released and retracted, An Wujiu looked at the target attacked by Wu You. Even though it was exactly the same as what he had guessed, An Wujiu couldn't help being stunned when he saw her face.
Yang Erci was almost strangled to death, his face was pale, he held his throat with both hands, gasped, and looked at An Wujiu with hostile eyes.
Shen Ti directly held her up with a gun, "What's your father's name?"
Hearing this question, even Wu You was dumbfounded, and shoved Shen Ti with his tentacles.
[Did you check your account? ]
Shen Ti almost rolled his eyes, and glanced at Zhong Yirou, "Don't even think about it, she must have called Yang Erci to her, then I'll ask her what's the meaning of her name."
Yang Erci, who was sitting on the ground, looked at him coldly, as if he didn't intend to speak, and refused to cooperate.
Taking a general look at her features, An Wujiu judged that the Yang Erci in front of him might be another person.
Whether it's an enemy or a friend, it doesn't matter.
An Wujiu lowered his head slightly, looked down at Yang Erci in front of him, and showed a faint smile.
"What you hear in the cold room is our voice."
Sure enough, as soon as this sentence came out, her expression changed.
An Wujiu squatted down, stared into her eyes, and continued: "Don't worry, we didn't kill her, she is still alive."
Yang Erci only felt that the person in front of him was terrifying.
He was smiling, with a very calm expression, but for some reason, he gave her a deep-hearted feeling, and there was a coldness in his smile.
Seeing that she was silent, An Wujiu tilted his head, "But we left a small thing in the freezer, if you cooperate with us, there will be no problem with that thing."
"Otherwise," An Wujiu stretched out his hand expressionlessly, clenching a fist between him and her, and then opened it suddenly, accompanied by his soft onomatopoeia, "Bang."
His appearance frightened Zhong Yirou, it has been a long time since his split state, and she rarely saw An Wujiu threatening others again.
It is even different from the previous madness, now An Wujiu is quite calm when he goes crazy, much scarier.
Sure enough, in the face of such psychological oppression, Yang Erci in front of him couldn't keep silent.
"Yang Ce." She looked up at Shen Ti, "My father's name."
Shen Ti raised his eyebrows, "It's really the same." He put down the gun, took out a lollipop he just found from his pocket, tore open the package and stuffed it into his mouth.
Shen Ti pointed to Zhong Yirou at her, and asked vaguely, "Do you know her?"
Yang Erci didn't look in the direction he was pointing, and remained unmoved.
Shen Ti took out the lollipop and paused.
"She's your wife."
Zhong Yirou was very nervous at first, but when he heard his words suddenly, he was so angry that he grabbed something at hand and threw it at Shen Ti, "Can you be more serious? What time is it..."
An Wujiu also sat on the floor, facing the short-haired Yang Erci, "The person in the refrigerator looks the same as her."
"Yes." Yang Erci admitted, "It's exactly the same, there must be someone who looks like me beside you."
An Wujiu nodded, "Please describe more about yourself, such as how many games you participated in at the altar, what games they were, your occupation, your residence...etc, the more the better."
Yang Erci didn't want to say it at first, but she thought of the man in front of her just now and felt threatened, so she said it anyway.
According to her words, they knew that this person's life was exactly the same as Yang Erci's, from birth to his father's departure.
What is different is the part after she entered the altar. She has experienced the games in the detention center, but she has never met Shen Ti and An Wujiu, but other people, including Zhong Yirou and even Nanshan, because In her description there is a Taoist priest.
In addition, what she encountered when she returned to reality from the altar was different. After returning to reality from the scene in the detention center, she woke up in the middle of the night and the apartment caught fire, so she had burns on her hands, and After that day, she cut off her hair.
In her description, she has established a relationship with Zhong Yirou, she initiated it, and her father is not dead. Before Shuangyue appeared, she had already located her father, and she just had to go there to find him.
So she's on her way to her father's hideout, into this reality escape instance. Unlike them, she and a friend were together when they initialized, but when they fled, they found another person who was exactly like the friend.
That person first asked them for help, and then when she finally accepted to go together, he took advantage of her to find a new weapon, killed her friend, that person's other self, and stole her flying machine.
She was alone, caught in endless regret and danger, and when she finally found Zhong Yirou in the chaos after wasting a lot of time, she was already bitten by the neck by pollutants.
Too late.
She watched Zhong Yirou gradually lose her human appearance, but she couldn't move her hands. In the end, she could only tie her up, stole a car that could hold pollutants, and drove Zhong Yirou to a place where no one was around.
She didn't close her eyes that night, and kept changing places. The pollutants would go crazy if they didn't eat. She cut her arm and fed her blood, but she couldn't last long.
She didn't feel relieved until she found this supermarket.
But she never imagined that the pollutants that have completely lost their humanity are beyond her control. So when she came back after taking the medicine, she saw with her own eyes that the former lover, now the monster, killed the people who came to the supermarket to take refuge.
Yang Erci was exhausted, she used the anesthesia method Zhong Yirou had taught her, used the maximum dose of anesthesia and sedatives to stabilize her, locked her up, gave her raw meat, and kept her by her side like a wild animal.
She was trying to find a way to contact her father when they arrived. She was in the monitoring room on the second floor and found the existence of them, especially the pollutants around them, which seemed to be under control.
Yang Erci didn't understand, and found it inconceivable, so he left the monitoring room and went quietly to find that huge pollutant.
She never expected to see Zhong Yirou's normal appearance again.
But she just saw it, and she saw her talking and laughing with the pollutant, and touching his tentacles with her hands. Yang Erci couldn't help but think that the person who killed her friend had the same face.
At that time, she told herself that if she met someone like Zhong Yirou, she must be killed.
Otherwise, she will definitely be confused, after all, it is the same face.
Unexpectedly, it still failed.
After listening to what this short-haired Yang Erci said, Shen Ti gave a long hum with a lollipop in his mouth, as if he was thinking, and then suddenly came to a conclusion.
"Could it be parallel time and space?"
There are completely different parts, and there are overlapping parts. It is indeed very similar to people who exist in parallel time and space, although this theory has not been really proved.
But An Wujiu didn't think it was surprising, at this time, what is scientific or not, as long as it happened in the altar, it could be as mysterious as possible.
But this parallel time and space seems to be different from what he knows, not completely parallel. Judging from Yang Erci's life experience, for a long time before, the two of them were the same, like overlapping worlds.
After entering the altar, a fork began to appear, turning into two wrong paths.
He suddenly thought of the two moons in the sky.
Does this mean,
Now this whole world is two overlapping spaces.
The land they are stepping on at this moment is probably not the space-time territory to which they belong.
"I've said everything I can say." Yang Erci looked into his eyes coldly, "Is that enough?"
An Wujiu stood up and reached out to pull her, but the other party didn't appreciate it.
"I'll return this to you." Zhong Yirou took out the pistol and handed it to her, but when he handed it out, he accidentally took out a pain-relieving bandage from the bag, and she quickly pulled it out and stuffed it back into her pocket. He smiled awkwardly, "I just found this by myself, and it's quite expensive..."
Yang Erci stared at the pistol, remained silent for a while, then raised his eyes to stare at Zhong Yirou's face.
Zhong Yirou was a little overwhelmed by her stare, and wanted to say something, but the other party was one step ahead of her.
"It's really like it."
The same greed for petty gain and money, the same soft heart.
The short-haired Yang Erci took the gun from her hand and said expressionlessly, "You hand the gun to the person who wants to kill you, are you afraid that I will do it now?"
Zhong Yirou smiled and shook his head, "If it was the Yang Erci I like, I wouldn't kill the Zhong Yirou you like."
"In this regard, you are the same." She said.
After hearing this story told by Yang Erci, about the two of them, Zhong Yirou suddenly felt relieved.
Even if Yang Erci, who belonged to her, left, she would not regret it so much.
It turned out that she was in another time and space, and she also loved herself, how lucky it was.
Yang Erci's hat fell back, revealing his short blue-black hair. Obviously the face is the same, but it seems to be different.
She didn't speak, turned and left.
An Wujiu watched her back, and suddenly spoke.
"I don't have a security time bomb."
The opponent's footsteps faltered.
"And one more thing."
In essence, she is also Yang Erci, his friend.
An Wujiu asked, "Are you willing to walk with us?"
