"Le Yao?" Zhou Luoyang knocked on the door of the next bedroom a few times, wanting to make sure that Le Yao was still safe.

Du Jing sat down at the dining table and glanced at his phone, it was three o'clock in the middle of the night.

"It was Le Yao who took it," Du Jing said. "The other party was very clear-headed. Before midnight, he had him take the Eye of Versetti."

"Impossible!" Zhou Luoyang said, "Du Jing, I'm going to be angry if you say that, he's my younger brother! Le Yao! Wake up!"

Du Jing got up, found the key, and opened the door of Le Yao's bedroom three or two times.

The quilt was scattered, and Le Yao was not in the room.

Zhou Luoyang: "…"

Du Jing said: "He moved the eyes of Versetti before this, and because he is your younger brother, I have no objection."

Zhou Luoyang walked to Le Yao's desk and saw a note left on it.

On the note was a map, with the location marked on it, and the way of drawing, obviously in Le Yao's handwriting.

Zhou Luoyang whispered: "I'm sorry."

"It's alright," Du Jing said, "I was careless, Luoyang."

Zhou Luoyang didn't know what to say, why did Le Yao move this watch? He was held hostage? No, he could turn to them for help most of the time, and when they were together, Le Yao was not threatened at all.

And even if he was threatened, it was impossible for Du Jing not to notice the difference.

"Why would he..."

"Listen to me, Luoyang," Du Jing said seriously, "what is our relationship now?"

Zhou Luoyang avoided Du Jing's gaze, but Du Jing said again, "So there's no need to apologize, I'll find him right away."

"Yes," Zhou Luoyang said, "you're right, change your clothes and go find him together."

Du Jing left quickly and got into the car. Zhou Luoyang got into the co-pilot and fastened his seat belt. Du Jing said: "He must be in Su Pu's hands now. Since Su Pu has looked for you, he must have looked for him. He is too bold."

"He thinks you killed our father," Zhou Luoyang said helplessly, "he... he will definitely listen to Su Pu!"

"I did," Du Jing said, "but not yet."

Zhou Luoyang replied: "It hasn't happened yet, it just hasn't happened."

Zhou Luoyang still has not figured out why Du Jing appeared at Haneda Airport at a certain moment in the past, at least it has become an established fact for them now, but Du Jing made this decision at a certain moment in the future. It hasn't happened yet.

Just like changing Yu Jianqiang's death, maybe the past can also be changed.

"I'm afraid this is a trap." Zhou Luoyang said.

"There's no other way," Du Jing said. "The Eye of Versetti is in Le Yao's hands. If we don't get it back, we can't go back to the day before, or repeat the time backtracking."

"Supu must know the function of the Eye of Versailles!" Zhou Luoyang understood instantly.

"Yes." Du Jing said calmly, "It is indeed more difficult to deal with than Wang Shunchang. Supu asked Le Yao to take the Eye of Versailles before we were not paying attention. Put it back in place before going out."

"But since they got it, why didn't they just take it away?"

"Because the other party can't confirm which piece is real." Du Jing murmured.

Zhou Luoyang suddenly realized one of the most critical problems. The real identity of the person who is behind all this has been revealed.

According to the map, Du Jing stopped in front of a building at 4:30.

It was the office of a Sino-Russian cooperation company and the address of the Russian Chamber of Commerce in Wanshi, China. It was very quiet and brightly lit inside.

Du Jing glanced at Zhou Luoyang, the two were silent, Du Jing drove the car into the chamber of commerce, and the security tacitly released the car.

Supu stood at the entrance, waiting patiently for the two to arrive.

"It seems that you are already experiencing January 3rd for the second time." Sup said, "Come in, Swartanowski is waiting for you inside."

"I said," Zhou Luoyang murmured, "the person who met you at the Peninsula Hotel was a Russian."

"welcome!"

When entering the large living room on the second floor, there were four bodyguards standing in the living room, and Zhou Luoyang and Du Jing were searched.

"Routine check," Swartanowski said, swiping his cigar, "to make sure no gun was brought in."

"You think too much," Zhou Luoyang replied. "China has gun control."

"Where is Zhou Leyao?" Du Jing said solemnly.

"How many times have you been here?" This time, Svatanlovsky's accent was very fluent. Obviously, the reason why he couldn't speak Chinese before was all fake. After thinking about it carefully, he understood and said, "The first time I experienced January 3? Well, so you don't know."

As he spoke, he gestured to the Ukrainian beauty beside him and said, "Lily."

Lily bowed and walked out. Svatanlovsky said, "Don't worry, since it is Yuan Zhou's descendants, upholding the friendship between our two families, I will not harm you."

Svartanlovsky looked at the two and said, "Boss Zhou, has my watch been repaired?"

"No." Zhou Luoyang said, took out another watch body of the Eye of Versailles, and threw it at him.

Swartanowski smiled mysteriously and said, "I reminded you to be careful, tourist."

Zhou Luoyang seemed to hear another strange voice in an instant, although it was brief, that familiar tone...

"Are you the ruler?" Zhou Luoyang said in disbelief.

Du Jing: "!!!"

"You all behaved very well in the secret room," Swartanowski laughed. "It's a pity that Honghou died, and my bet can never be fulfilled. But it doesn't matter, through a game, you can find the treasures handed down by the family. , what a surprise…”

Du Jing said solemnly, "You noticed us when you were on the peninsula."

"Because I watched the preliminaries sent by Hong Hou," Svartanlovsky said.

Zhou Luoyang: "!!!"

All the clues were connected in an instant - the Russians were originally customers of the dark web. Before going to the Sotheby's auction, they had seen Zhou Luoyang and Du Jing in the preliminaries on the video! At that time, they were still playing in the secret room in Wan City!

So at the auction, the Russian businessman noticed them immediately and informed Honghou privately.

However, at the same time, he also discovered that Du Jing was wearing the eyes of Versetti.

"About the Eye of Versetti," said Svartanlovsky, "there is a legend in my family that I am the third generation. My family relied on it to kill After the siege, he made his fortune after the October Revolution and became a great aristocrat for generations."

"Le Yao!" Zhou Luoyang looked to the side of the hall, and Lily pushed Le Yao over. The bodyguard pushed the sofa, and Swartanlovsky said, "Everyone, please sit down, I promise not to hurt you, as long as you cooperate."

Even if Du Jing had the ability to reach the sky, he could not escape with the Zhou Luoyang brothers. After all, Le Yao couldn't escape at all.

"Brother," Le Yao said, "do you know what Du Jing did?"

"No," Zhou Luoyang said, "it's not like that, listen to me, Le Yao! Why don't you ask me first, and you will listen to others?!"

Le Yao murmured, "You won't believe it, you only believe in Du Jing."

Du Jing suddenly said: "More things, let's go back and talk about it later."

He sat down on the sofa, didn't look at Le Yao, and said solemnly: "Go ahead, Swartanowski, I really want to know the truth."

Svartanlovsky took out another Eye of Versetti from his pocket, put it on the coffee table in front of him, and said, "This watch is in my hands, even if you manage to turn back time and go back to this day. , still can't get it."

"Yes," Du Jing admitted and said, "You are very smart. Even if we have this ability, you still set up a series of strategies to successfully break this time cycle."

Zhou Luoyang was blocked by bodyguards, preventing him from contacting Le Yao, and Su Pu even watched Le Yao beside him.

At this time, Su Pu put one hand on Le Yao's shoulder, indicating that it was all right.

Svartan grinned and said, "It seems that Mr. Du's curiosity about it is more than his own safety."

Du Jing stared at the Eye of Versetti silently and did not speak.

"Where did you start?" Svartanlovsky stood up, with one hand in his trouser pocket and the other with a cigar in his hand, went to the window, began to recall the past, and explained, "You may not know it yet. The name, isn't it? I can tell you now, its real name, which is very tongue-in-cheek in Russian."

Svatanlovsky said a string of Russian, and added: "Translated into Chinese, it should be called 'the countercurrent runner of light particles'. In 1920, Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov In the second year of the October Revolution, the idea of superpowers was put forward, and the relative relationship between time and space was found."

"It's a very common phenomenon in Russia," Zhou Luoyang replied, "but I'm more concerned about how your family knows about it."

Svartanlovsky said: "The real light particle countercurrent runner was indeed in our hands at first. After the fall of the Scandinavian sect, one of my great-great-grandmothers said so? Put it It was handed over to the Vatican Church, and as a relic, Russia got it and, through artisans, made the first watch."

Svartanlovsky turned his back to the hall, sighed, and said: "Of course, they haven't been able to study much of its function, and they can't even activate the most basic function of this sacred object. They only know that it is extraordinary, it is A powerful weapon left in human society by an alien civilization."

"Then it was returned to its original owner," said Svatanlovsky, "and the state gave it back to my grandfather. During an unintentional commissioning, my grandfather activated its mysterious power and began to gain the power of the countercurrent runner of light particles. Time rewind function."

Du Jing said: "So your family has got rich wealth and the strength to dominate the party."

"Yeah." Svartanlovsky turned his head, winked at them with a smile, and said, "There is no medicine for regret in life, and sometimes a wrong step can be shattered, but my grandfather escaped from many struggles. Every time I went out, I embarked on the incomparably correct path, and finally brought this family to the top."

"But it doesn't look like he's too careful," Du Jing said, already guessing what happened later, "Like Gollum in the Lord of the Rings, how could such an important treasure be not carefully guarded?"

Svartanlovsky said: "You should be proud of the wisdom of the Chinese, after all, not everyone can think of replacing it with an imitation. After all, my grandfather believed so much in Yuan Zhou, even the most important The secret, and he was frank with him, just to help him. But this watch has been unknowingly adjusted. "

Zhou Luoyang understood in an instant. He seemed to see his great-grandfather named Zhou Yuan doing business in the Caucasus region, and he met a Russian, Svatanlovsky's grandfather. By chance, he caught a glimpse of his secret. Made an identical Eye of Versetti out of greed and replaced it.

Until the Russians discovered this, there was no way to go back in time.

"I'm really sorry," Zhou Luoyang said, "if everything is as you said..."

"No," Svartanlovsky said, "no need to apologize, Mr. Zhou, our family has long regarded it very lightly. Maybe this is the will of God? After all, such an important weapon is in our hands. , maybe one day, it will bring the bitter fruit of ruin to the family, just like I reminded you at the auction."

Zhou Luoyang didn't speak, but Swartanlovsky said, "If you didn't have it, why would you be targeted by me? After the Zhou family escaped, my grandfather gradually let go of his worries, left imitations, and took the right to be the first. This is a memorial from a friend. After many years, I finally brought it up again and initiated a commission to the Pacific Rim Agents to investigate your father, Zhou Song."

Le Yao and Zhou Luoyang were silent.

"It was Supp who took over in the end." Svartanlovsky glanced at Supp and said, "However, there is still a lot of fate between our two families."

Du Jing didn't give Swartanlovsky more opportunities to confuse people, but instead said: "Now that you have it, what else do you want to do?"

Svartanowski pressed down the cigar and said calmly, "You don't use it, or rather, you can't properly activate its most important function."

Zhou Luoyang has always known that this watch must have mysteries, but they don't know how to use it.

Du Jing said, "All ears are welcome."

"Of course," Swartanowski added, "I only learned about its power from my grandfather's diary."

He sat down again, picked up the watch, looked at the outer dial, and said, "Do you think reverse currents only happen in twenty-four hours? No, my dear friends."

At that moment, Du Jing and Zhou Luoyang held their breath and their heartbeats almost stopped.

"It looks like you haven't tried it?" Swartanowski said again.

Since repairing this watch, Du Jing has not dared to tamper with it. In addition to winding it, he is afraid of random debugging and starting any troublesome functions.

"Let the hour hand turn at the same time as the dial," Swartanowski said, "and when you finally reset, you will go back countless days and nights until the day you choose. You can go back in time, and you will go to future."

Svartanlovsky gently opened the winding button and made a soft sound. In order to facilitate his adjustment, the watch strap of the Eye of Versetti had been removed. At this moment, he put the watch on the table and tried his left hand. Rotating the outer date disc, the right hand begins to turn the hands carefully.

"Are you sure?" Du Jing said, "You can't change anything, at least not the moment."

Swartanowski didn't speak, just paused for a moment.

Du Jing added: "You are just traveling in parallel time and space, returning to yourself in another time line, but you are deceiving yourself..."

"Parallel time and space?" Svatanlovsky suddenly laughed and said, "This is the explanation you got from Yuan Zhou's records?"

Svartanlovsky stopped and explained: "There is no parallel time and space at all, you just don't understand the principle of the countercurrent of light particles, in all time and space, you, me, they... are all the same person, yours The body has never traveled through time, and the only thing that has been stripped of this dimension is…”

After speaking, he raised his hand, pointed to his head, and said, "Soul, that is, consciousness."
