Day of Imprisonment

Six forty AM.

Wu Rui finished her porridge and ate two sesame flatbreads.

Her appetite was even bigger than Luo Xi's.

Right now, she was wiping her mouth with a napkin, her big eyes looking at Luo Xi.

Of the people Luo Xi was waiting for, none besides Wu Rui had arrived.

He couldn't reach Mao Ge; the call went through, but no one answered. As for Zhang Yanan's phone, it was completely unreachable, turned off.

Just as Luo Xi was about to call Guo Zening, the other party called at that moment.

He answered the call.

"Luo Xi, I... something's not right on my end, very not right."

Guo Zening's voice was filled with panic and fear, the background noise was very chaotic, it seemed like many people were talking, very loudly.

"Speak slowly,"

Luo Xi said as he took out a small notebook and a pen from his pocket.

"Someone died... I mean, someone first gave me a small advertisement, and then the person handing out the advertisements was killed... He's lying on the ground, blood all over the floor, Luo Xi, I'm very scared, the guy who killed him searched the deceased and took the card, everyone is hiding in another carriage..."

Guo Zening was clearly incoherent.

"Where are you?" Luo Xi asked.

"Me? On the subway, three more stops to your place."

"Get off at the next stop. If you can't get off, try to hide. Also, what does the small advertisement say?"

"Right, what I was about to tell you is about this small advertisement, the content is very strange, it says: 'Break free from the confinement of a repetitive day, let time restart, return to your true self,' contact phone number: 1XXXXXXXXXX"

Luo Xi recorded the phone number.

"Don't hang up, carefully observe the people around you, move closer to the train door, how long until the next stop?"

"It'll be here soon... No, no, the train isn't stopping... Damn, what's going on? It's arrived, why isn't it stopping?"

The noise in the phone increased a lot compared to before, a mess of curses and screams, clearly the fact that the train didn't stop normally at the station caused panic.

"Guo Zening, Guo Zening!" Luo Xi had to raise his voice.

"I'm here, I'm listening!"

The worst case is waking up on the next day of confinement.

The same thing, contact me as soon as possible then... But I still suggest, keep a good attitude, carefully explore and observe, recall everything abnormal since getting on the train.

In fact, clearing the level is not difficult."

"What? Scene? Clearing the level?" Guo Zening on the other end of the phone was completely numb after hearing this.

His head was buzzing, empty.

How did he enter another scene?

Could there be terrible killings and monsters like in the company?

Guo Zening had experienced the events after Mao Ge and Feng Kai turned into cleaners, something he never wanted to experience again in his life.

What you fear comes to you.

"Luo Xi, are you saying there will be clean"...

"Don't say it, be careful someone hears you.

The person you saw killed before may have been killed because they exposed themselves.

As for what you want to ask, I can answer you, there's a high chance there will be cleaners, and because the scene is very special, there isn't much time left for you..."

Before he could finish speaking, the phone 'beeped' with a busy tone.

The phone was disconnected.

Dialing again, he couldn't get through, it prompted that the other party was temporarily unavailable.

Luo Xi sighed, and then called Liu Mao and Zhang Yanan one after the other, as before, the former's phone went through but no one answered, the latter's prompted that it was turned off.

Across from him, although Wu Rui didn't hear Guo Zening's voice on the phone, she heard clearly what Luo Xi said, and at this moment she was also extremely nervous, until Luo Xi put down his phone, she couldn't help but speak.

"Guo Zening and the others... did you already know? Is that why you asked me if the journey was smooth?"

"Just guessing there might be a problem, but now it seems that's indeed the case..."

Luo Xi replied absentmindedly.

He pondered for a moment, picked up his phone, and dialed a number.

It was the phone number printed on the small advertisement that Guo Zening mentioned earlier.

It rang once and connected.

It was an automated voice broadcast.

"Hello, if you need assistance, please come to Room D58, No. 250, Hui Ling Road, we look forward to your arrival."

Luo Xi hung up the phone and muttered, "Fishing!"

Then he got up to scan the QR code and pay the boss.

"Let's go!" Luo Xi called out to Wu Rui.

"Aren't you... aren't you waiting for them?"

"They're not coming."

Luo Xi walked to Wu Rui's car, opened the rear right door, and sat inside.

Wu Rui also got into the car.

"Then, where are we going?"

"To the company," Luo Xi said as he fastened his seat belt.

"Where?" Wu Rui thought she heard wrong, that place, she never wanted to go again in her life.

"Drive, when we get there, you just wait for me downstairs."

Luo Xi picked up his phone and started reading the local news.

Wu Rui resisted asking, started the car, set off, shifted gears, and with a burst of acceleration, sped away.

It wasn't far from here to the company, the journey was less than twenty minutes, Luo Xi was looking at the local news on his phone, and quickly found the latest news.

"...Breaking news, a bus in this city suddenly exploded while driving, the explosion caused multiple casualties, please click to view details..."

"Bus No. 45... The road on the North Jiang Bridge is currently blocked, please detour nearby vehicle owners."

Luo Xi looked up at this moment: "Zhang Yanan's home is on Meow Meow Street, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Wu Rui nodded.

Luo Xi didn't speak. From Zhang Yanan's house to where he lived, he needed to take the No. 45 bus.

Plus, Zhang Yanan's phone indicated that it was turned off. Perhaps, she was on that bus.

Moreover, Zhang Yanan didn't have any extra memory cards.

"What exactly is going on?" Wu Rui parked the car on the side of the road at this time.

Luo Xi handed the phone over. Wu Rui looked at it, and a look of shock appeared on her face. She wasn't stupid, and just now Luo Xi asked her where Zhang Yanan lived, which was already very obvious.

"Yanan, she wouldn't, would she?"

"Keep driving!" Luo Xi took back the phone and continued to browse the news, as if he didn't care at all.

Next, the car was unusually quiet. Luo Xi focused on the local news list, while Wu Rui was in a complicated mood.

There were no reports of other serious accidents in the news. Of course, some things, even if they happened, might not be reported.

Luo Xi looked out the window. There were gradually more cars on the road, but today was a cloudy day, and the high-rise buildings looked a bit gloomy and strange in this environment.

In Luo Xi's eyes, this city hid many terrible secrets.

". This world is fake but, how is that possible?"

Even from the perspective of a madman, the idea of ​​'the world is fake' would seem absurd. Because what kind of existence can forge a fake world?

The newest and most complete novels are first published on 6_9_shu_ba!

God?

Buddha?

God?

"Or, is all of this just my hallucination? Because I didn't take my medicine on time?"

At this moment, Luo Xi's phone rang.

He checked the caller ID as soon as possible, but obviously, the caller was not the person he expected.

Answer the call.

"Hello, Luo Xi, where are you?" A man's voice came from the other end of the phone, with urgency and excitement.

It was Du Lei, President Du.

Luo Xi wasn't surprised.

Last time, he broke the company's scene cycle 'mechanism'. Since they could all advance the time anchor point to escape that scene, Du Lei could do the same, provided that he had a memory card in his hand; otherwise, he would still become an amnesiac.

"I'm almost at the company. Is there anything you need, President Du?"

"Let's talk. Let's meet downstairs at the company."

"Okay."

Luo Xi didn't say much and hung up the phone.

A few minutes later, the car arrived at the company's location, a building in the development zone. The environment here was good and the transportation was convenient.

Luo Xi looked at the time.

6:57.

I have to say, Wu Rui drove quite fast. She actually arrived in just over ten minutes.

Luo Xi got out of the car, and Wu Rui got out too.

"I'm going with you!" She looked like a daredevil ready to risk her life, with a determined look on her face. Moreover, it could be seen that she had a weapon hidden in her waist.

Perhaps noticing Luo Xi's gaze, Wu Rui simply pulled out a knife and a can of pepper spray from her lower back and said, "Just in case."

"Very good!" Luo Xi looked up at the building. At this time, people had already arrived to work one after another. Some were even acquaintances and colleagues.

"Good morning, why aren't you going upstairs?"

"What are you two doing here? Have you had breakfast? I have extra boiled eggs."

Luo Xi looked at them expressionlessly, without responding to anyone. Wu Rui didn't know what the former was going to do, but she also remained silent.

After a while, a person rode over on a shared bicycle.

It was Feng Kai.

When he saw Luo Xi and Wu Rui, he was first stunned, and then nodded as a greeting.

Colleagues are also divided into close and distant relationships. Obviously, Luo Xi and the other party were just a simple colleague relationship, at most greeting each other when they met.

Feng Kai clearly didn't remember what happened last time. He walked into the building normally.

"Do you think Feng Kai, this time, will..." Wu Rui couldn't help but ask.

"No, last time, I made him a cleaner. This time, he's just an amnesiac who has lost his memory."

Luo Xi continued to wait.

After another while, a car drove over, braked sharply, and stopped on the side of the road.

Du Lei got out of the car.

He was obviously excited and walked over quickly.

"The time for memory recovery has been advanced. Luo Xi, what did you do last game?" Du Lei couldn't wait to ask as soon as he walked over.

"I'm also very curious. Isn't it you, President Du, who did something without telling us?" Luo Xi pretended to be stupid.

Obviously, Du Lei didn't trust him, so he couldn't tell the truth.

"Stop talking nonsense, it must be you, it must be..." Du Lei looked around and continued: "At that time, I was on the 23rd floor, comforting the employees. As a result, that madman Feng Kai rushed down and started slaughtering directly. He turned into a monster, but why was it him? I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out. I think about it, and I can only think that you did something. Later, that bastard Feng Kai killed me, and the next moment, I found that I was actually at home. The time to recover my memory was advanced, which means that as long as I don't go to the company, don't go upstairs, I can escape that terrifying place."

"Isn't that a good thing?" Luo Xi said.

"But, we didn't actually escape, no..." Suddenly, Du Lei became extremely manic. He seemed to be trying his best to suppress his emotions. I have to say, he did it. After a few deep breaths, he calmed down a bit.

Then, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one, and handed it to Luo Xi.

The latter realized something and took it.

The moment his fingertips touched the cigarette, Luo Xi muttered, "As expected!"
