By the way, everyone knows that Walter and Maggie live together, so it's late at night, and one couple is visiting another couple's home. Vertex 23S. The fastest update belongs to the kind of social activities that are normal but people really don’t want to get close to...
"I've never seen you two standing together~~" Maggie seemed very excited, talking about Louise and Zach.
Only when these words were spoken did Zach and Louise be reminded that the two of them seemed to rarely go out together. The most recent time, hehe, the two of them went to pick up Murphy together. It's interesting, these two vampires went out together because of the "ex-wife is still alive" thing.
Almost instinctively, Louise tilted her head and looked at Zach, "We... should go out for a walk together more often."
"Agree." Of course Zach could only agree and motioned to Walter, "Let's get started."
But Walter looked at Zach with a questioning look on his face, "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Zach raised the wine bottle filled with red liquid as a 'souvenir' in his hand, "I said I would come over in the evening."
"I know this!" Walter snatched the souvenir from Zach's hand, "I can just send it over myself! You don't need to stare here!" emphasized, "You! You don't need to stare here!"
Maggie, who was said to be extremely enthusiastic, took over the mantle of Louise and Zach. Walter's meaning was very clear. Zach and Louise did not need to stay here.
Zach politely thanked Maggie for her considerate hospitality, and then said, "Let's go together."
"No!" Walter intercepted the outsider's coat from Maggie's hand and pushed it back, "There is no us here! I will not take you across the world with me again!"
"Oh, it's not me." Zach was very flexible. He had already pulled Louise to avoid the coat handed back by Walter, and locked the dining room of this warm couple's home where candles were already prepared. "It's us, Louise and I." Louise, let’s go together.” Pulling Louise into the restaurant.
"Ha!" Walter actually laughed, and then, "I quit!"
Zach and Louise had already sat down in the restaurant. Louise also gave Maggie a sheepish look. Zach, on the other hand, looked completely idle, looking at the decoration of other people's homes impolitely.
The awkward atmosphere lasted for ten seconds.
"Aren't you ready to leave?!" Walter's anger leaked out.
"The purpose of my coming here has not been achieved, why should I leave?" Zach asked, looking here and touching there. The most annoying type of guest.
"Believe it or not, I will revoke my invitation to you now! Burn you to death!" Such a vicious Walter.
Zach just glanced at Walter, "This house is not yours." It belongs to Maggie Crescent. Then, Zach looked at Maggie with admiration, "You have a very beautiful home~" Zach Switching between roles has never been faster.
"Thank you~" Maggie was very helpful and pushed Walter. Naturally, the meaning in her eyes was to ask Walter to do meaningless things.
"No! No means no! We can't let vampires ride on our heads! Especially this one!" Correction, "Two!"
These words must be liberalized to understand the vampire that appeared first in Walter's words, which obviously refers to Barton's vampire in general. And as we know, there are quite a lot of Barton vampires.
Maggie's reaction to this was to roll her eyes and helpless, "They are the only vampires invited in."
"Then cancel the invitation!" Walter seemed to want to establish a family rule, "From now on! Vampires are not allowed in our home! Here! Our home!" Walter waved his arms behind his door in a funny way, "This is a restricted area for vampires! "
Zach was going to say something, for example, if you want to put out such a restricted area, then I can make any place outside this home a restricted area for you Walter. Who wouldn't make such a childish threat, and he wouldn't really take it seriously.
It's just... something very bloody happened. Maggie looked at Walter with expectation, "Are you proposing?"
"Wha, what?"
"You said, 'our home.'"
"Well… "
"What is 'uh...'?" Maggie tilted her head and blinked, waiting for an answer.
"I, let's talk about this next time..." Walter pushed Maggie to the bedroom, "Next time..."
"When is the next time?" With the same expression, he tilted his head and blinked.
"Just next time!" Walter replied, and then quickly walked through the living room, rushed into the dining room, and closed the door!
"When is the next time? Can you do it before I can't stand you always putting socks in my underwear drawer?" Maggie's leisurely voice passed through the door of the restaurant.
The Walter in Zach and Louise's eyes... was sweating, "Yes, yes!"
"Okay." Maggie's voice continued to penetrate, "Be safe and remember to close the curtains~" What a gentle woman, she still remembers to tell Walter the precautions when traveling through the world~
Remember, when Walter traveled across the world, he had to cut off external light sources. No one wants something from other worlds to use the world boundaries that Walter burned through and come into our world.
Walter pressed against the wall, moved to the window, and closed the curtains. The restaurant became dark.
It was Zach who broke the silence, "Sorry."
"*!" That's a far cry from 'It doesn't matter.'
But Zach didn't mind. Zach wasn't really apologizing anyway, and it wasn't Zach who was wrong. This was just Zach expressing his regret for accidentally witnessing a piece of gossip that he didn't need to know, "Let's get started."
In response to Zach's voice, the candles on the dining table were lit.
Zach looked at Louise with a smile on his face, "This should be your first time seeing Walter travel across the world."
The moment Louise nodded, the world had changed.
time. A road with only two directions: forward and backward.
Louise looked around in surprise, "This is..."
"Numbers!" Walter turned back and glared at Louise, then forced his way back between Zach and Louise, "Don't turn around! Just follow me, go backwards!"
Louise closed her newly opened mouth, glanced at Zach who had already done so, and then stepped back.
Countless golden figures passed through the sight of the three people retreating. Although our Zach already said it last time when he came to this wonderful two-way world, it is meaningless to talk about time here. But now I can only use this expression. I don’t know how long we have gone backwards. Louise couldn’t help but said, "Why do we have to go backwards?"
Ordinarily, the person who can give a more accurate answer is Walter. But Louise looked back at Walter, not seeing that Walter meant to speak, so she looked at Zach.
Zach responded, "Did you see the number on Walter's forehead?"
"Well," Louise nodded, and turned back to confirm, "it's decreasing."
"This is how time goes backwards. When he goes backwards, time goes backwards, and what we are going to now is the past. The time Murphy is in is earlier than the time of our world. So he goes backwards, allowing us to move forward in time in the past. "
Although this explanation is convoluted, it is not incomprehensible. Louise reluctantly accepted the explanation, lowered her head, and looked at the 'road' she was walking backwards on, "Is there an end to this road?"
"Is there an end to time?" In the midst of boring retrogression, are these three people going to start discussing philosophy
Will not. Walter was concentrating on counting and calculating how long he had gone backwards. He would not allow two guys to interrupt him, so he said, "Yes! So shut up! Follow me!" and threatened, "That's not the case here. You can bully honest people wherever you want! Be careful, if I am unhappy, I will leave you wherever I want!"
"Okay." Zach and Louise looked at each other and both remained quiet.
