Chapter 101 Daily Life (XIV)
Because they had classes during the day, they went there at night.
The people who went there were Mu Yu and Ye Sui. It was just eight o'clock in the evening when they arrived at Wenshan Club by an online taxi. It should have been the busiest time, but there was only one car, Yan Shaowen's, in the parking lot, and the club was also empty.
They went out of business.
The club manager silently accompanied them. Yan Shaowen said as they walked: "An employee had an accident three days ago. The accident took place on the first floor."
"First floor?" Mu Yu was stunned.
"Yes, not the third floor."
Yan Shaowen handed the phone to Mu Yu and asked them to watch a surveillance video he had recorded.
The surveillance footage was taken at 3pm, which should be a time when there were not many guests.
The camera was pointed at an ordinary corner. Mu Yu had an impression of this corner on the first floor. It seemed to be the place leading to the kitchen... He saw a waiter carrying a bottle of red wine and walking towards the corner as usual, and then in an instant...
His head and feet were sucked by the two walls, and his whole body was turned sideways, floating in the air.
The wall was deformed, as if a funny filter had been added, and it suddenly sank and bent to the sides. The waiter was like a stretched rubber band, stretched into a long and thin body, struggling panickily in the air.
The sound of the red wine bottle smashing on the ground should have attracted the attention of some people in the kitchen. Several pairs of feet and hands appeared in the camera, and it was at this time that the waiter fell from mid-air, fell to the ground, and the wall returned to normal.
The whole process probably only takes a few seconds.
The scene was extremely bizarre. Mu Yu and Ye Sui frowned and watched it over and over again.
At this moment, Yan Shaowen had already brought them to the scene of the incident that day.
They stopped, looked up from their phones, and looked at the two walls in front of them.
The door of the kitchen was open and the lights inside were on. The bright light shone on the two four or five meter wide walls outside the door, making the dark marble seem less cold and gloomy.
Mu Yu walked forward, touched the wall, turned around and asked, "Is that employee okay?"
Yan Shaowen said: "I went to the hospital for a checkup and was healthy, but he was frightened."
His body was stretched like that, but he was still normal?
Mu Yu pondered, "...So it's just that the space is distorted? Did that one accident happen? Have there been no abnormalities in the two walls behind?"
"No," the manager answered this time. He looked very nervous. "But I asked everyone to check other places in the club that day. Several employees said that some corners gave them a strange feeling. They didn't dare to approach them. I also...didn't dare to approach those places. I only reported it to Master Yan. In fact, I can't be sure whether everyone was too nervous that day and had some psychological effects..."
Yan Shaowen spread his hands and said, "Anyway, it was already two hours later when I rushed over. Even if there were any abnormalities in those corners, they would have disappeared by then."
Mu Yu pursed her lips.
Indeed, if those anomalies were just like what was captured on the surveillance video, and only occurred within a few seconds...
"Is there any common pattern among the abnormal corners reported by employees?" Ye Sui asked.
"No, I can't see any pattern. Some are in the corners, and some are in the middle of the corridor." Yan Shaowen motioned the manager to do his own thing, walked over and said to the two of them indifferently, "I feel that the locations where they appear should be random."
The three of them looked at the two walls and for a moment they didn't know what to do with them.
How can they capture something that appears randomly?
"But this should be the final evidence," Ye Sui adjusted his glasses, "The starting point of the copy incident is the evidence here."
Yan Shaowen glanced at Mu Yu: "Do you really not remember anything at all? What happened the day after the class reunion?"
"If I could remember, would I still be able to stand here with you?" Mu Yu said, "By the way, your club can't open for business for the time being, right?"
"Haha." Yan Shaowen smiled with his face but not his eyes.
Mu Yu and Ye Sui: "..."
Why is he smiling so sinisterly at them? They are not the ones who are preventing him from making money!!
Yan Shaowen took them to other places.
He had actually inspected the entire building two days ago, and today was just a re-inspection.
For Mu Yu and Ye Sui, this was their third time entering the interior of this club, and they were already very familiar with the spatial structure inside.
They checked the corners that the employees had reported, and just like the two walls downstairs, everything looked normal.
Then they went up to the third floor - the most concerning place.
As soon as the elevator door opened, the straight corridor in my memory appeared.
At the end of the corridor is a terrace. At this moment, a small night light is on, illuminating only a small space and not the dark mountains in the distance.
Mu Yu walked in front, observing both sides carefully with his eyes.
Ye Sui and Yan Shaowen followed behind him. They opened the doors and checked the rooms while chatting about Lu Zhongnian.
After all, there was nothing noteworthy after checking all the way, and the atmosphere was not tense.
"You finally remembered him," Ye Sui said, "What was the opportunity?"
"It was just some minor accidents that happened in the dungeon," Yan Shaowen said calmly, then his tone became interested. "But Mu Yu, what did you do with him on the night of the class reunion?"
"?!" Mu Yu continued to walk forward calmly, "What did you do? You just slept. What else can you do?"
"So you and Lu Chongnian had a normal sleep, and the next day something strange happened to you?" Young Master Yan's teasing voice followed him.
He pronounced the words "I just had an ordinary sleep" with deep meaning.
Mu Yu stiffened his neck and said, "...What else can we do? What earth-shattering things can he and I do that would attract all the dungeons?"
He walked step by step to the middle of the corridor, his neck turned red, but he still tried to remain calm.
"And you also said that the strange things happening in your club now are all random. How do you know if the 'incident' that happened that morning was also a random occurrence—"
His eyes swept to his right, and in an instant, his steps stopped abruptly, and his voice was cut off in his throat.
Behind him, Yan Shaowen's voice turned into a room and became a little vague.
A voice that sounded like a smile floated out.
"According to the probability of movies and TV series, something important usually happens before a big event."
Ye Sui's voice followed into the room: "...Why don't you just ask Lu Zhongnian..."
"Because his reaction would be boring..."
Mu Yu stood there motionless.
The corridor became quiet.
To his right, at the corner leading to the only public restroom on this floor, the two walls were silently deforming and sticking together.
And in the middle of the wall, in the shadow where the light didn't reach... there was a person sandwiched vertically.
A living person.
It was unknown how long this person had stayed here. He did not see Mu Yu, nor did he seem to hear their conversation just now. He just stood there quietly, staring straight ahead with a strange expression.
He was wearing a winter coat and a pair of glasses on his fair face. His eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, everything was the look Mu Yu was most familiar with...
...because...that's him.
Mu Yu felt the hairs on his body stand up.
He stopped breathing and stared straight at the person in the gap. After two or three seconds, he twisted his neck stiffly little by little and looked in the direction of the other person he was staring at.
In an instant, an even colder chill rushed up his coccyx and straight to the top of his head.
Another him walked out from the corridor ahead...!
Came out from room 305.
The door of Room 305 opened at some point. The third man, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and with no expression on his face, was dragging his feet, slowly approaching them step by step...
"——Mu Yu?"
Yan Shaowen's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Mu Yu's breath trembled.
In the blink of an eye, the one walking towards him disappeared, and the one in the right wall also disappeared.
Both Mu Yu disappeared.
The door of Room 305 was closed normally, the two walls at the right corner also returned to normal, and the public restroom appeared at the end of the corner.
Mu Yu broke out in a cold sweat and his breathing became rapid without him noticing.
Yan Shaowen and Ye Sui came over, noticed his expression, immediately restrained their expressions, and asked seriously: "What happened?"
Mu Yu's Adam's apple rolled.
He turned around, walked towards the corner without hesitation, and stopped between the two walls.
He stared left and right at the two walls, but they remained motionless.
Ye Sui and Yan Shaowen looked at him with frowns.
Mu Yu walked straight forward and entered the bathroom.
The bathroom is dimly lit and richly decorated.
The sink, the floor, everything was clean, and the air smelled of air freshener.
Mu Yu's chest heaved.
"Ayu, what happened? What did you see?" Ye Sui followed and asked worriedly.
Mu Yu briefly described the situation he had just encountered in a dry voice.
"Two of you?!" Ye Sui was stunned. He asked Yan Shaowen, "Did you see it when you came out to call Ayu just now?"
Yan Shaowen frowned: "...No."
Mu Yu said hoarsely: "I don't know what happened to the me stuck in the wall, but the 'me' who came out of room 305 was wearing the same clothes I wore on the day of the class reunion..."
He turned around and ran towards 305 at the end of the corridor.
They swiped their cards and entered the room, but it was empty, with no one in sight.
The bed, sofa, coffee table, TV cabinet, everything stayed quietly in the place where they should be. Even the fibers on the carpet remained soft and clean, with no signs of anyone having stepped on them.
Mu Yu stood in the room, turning his body and watching all this.
What happened on the second day of the class reunion?
What is the meaning of that scene just now? !
...He didn't understand and couldn't remember.
I can't remember anything!
*
This trip to Wenshan Club cannot be said to be a complete failure, but in a sense, it is still a complete failure.
They still don't know what happened the day after the class reunion.
After discussing it in the group for a few days, we could only come to one conclusion.
——The abnormal situation occurring in Wenshan Club may not only involve space distortion, but also time distortion.
However, how this happened is still unknown.
Mu Yu locked himself in the dormitory for a few days.
Hong Yang and Ye Sui asked him to go out for a walk, but he was not in the mood.
Ye Sui sent him a message saying, "No matter what, we are getting closer to the truth of that day. Don't push yourself too hard."
Mu Yu tried to find the part of his memory that he had lost.
He wanted to violently tear open the blank space in his mind.
However, just like every time he tried in the past, the blank space seemed endless. He tore it off layer by layer, only to be blocked by a new layer of blank space that appeared behind it again and again.
He struggled in vain like a trapped animal until he was exhausted and fell into a sleep.
The next day I was woken up by the buzzing sound of my cell phone.
Early in the morning, the group was very lively, and Zhang Huawei was scrolling through the screen.
Zhang Huawei: “[Picture][Picture][Picture]”
Zhang Huawei: “Isn’t that awesome?”
Su Mingyun: “…Fuck!”
Fu Xiaoju: "What the hell?!"
Jiang Shuyue: "...You two are so strong."
Zhang Huawei: "It's not that I'm strong, I saw it on my roommate's WeChat Moments yesterday, and today I just went over to take a look. When I got there I realized it was Gao Zhanyuan's cousin's store!"
The string of photos sent by Zhang Huawei instantly cleared Mu Yu's mind, which had been dazed for several days.
He suddenly sat up from the bed and clicked on the large picture.
The photo was taken at the main entrance of a clam noodle restaurant.
There was a roll-up banner at the door, with a picture of Lu Zhongnian shooting on the basketball court, and around the picture were very colorful artistic fonts -
"The strongest man on earth!"
"Remember his name, Lu Chongnian!"
“Guess who he is?”
"He is someone deep in your memory, you all know him!"
The ceiling of the store was covered with small colored flags, all of which were personal photos of Lu Zhongnian. Those photos were all from Mu Yu's phone... He had sent them to everyone before...
The walls of the store were also covered with Lu Zhongnian's posters... The entire store had become Lu Zhongnian's personal theme store...
The flashy atmosphere attracted many students. There were people at the entrance of the store and inside the store.
Gao Zhanyuan was tall, directing something in the crowd. There were two boys standing next to him... Mu Yu remembered that they seemed to be the boys who followed Gao Zhanyuan in high school... They seemed to be handing out cards to passers-by...
Mu Yu was shocked...
Fu Xiaoju: "This scene...cannot be seen by Brother Lu..."
Gao Zhanyuan: "He can't see [picking nose]"
Jiang Shuyue: "No wonder the girls in our class said yesterday that they wanted to go to Garbage Street to eat clam rice noodle soup..."
Yu Ning: “[Picture]”
Yu Ning: "So powerful! The forum is also discussing this matter now."
Hong Yang: "@Muyu, do you have the energy to leave the dormitory now?"
Mu Yu: “…”
Mu Yu: "[Thumbs up] I'll go out right now, but next time you enter a dungeon, don't tell him that I sent the photo to the enemy."
Fu Xiaoju: “I took a screenshot.”
Zhang Huawei: "@Gao Zhanyuan, he said you are an enemy!"
Gao Zhanyuan: "Don't drive a wedge between me and my elder brother. My elder brother just sent me a message saying that I am his forever treasure [Huahua]"
Zhang Huawei: "Good fellow, it turns out that the enemy is after dark, and the allies are after daybreak."
Fu Xiaoju: “I took a screenshot.”
Mu Yu: "@Fu Xiaoju, do you want to eat clam rice noodle? I'll treat you [cute]"
Fu Xiaoju: "Don't tempt me, I won't fall into your trap!!"
…
Gao Zhanyuan's magical operation is really amazing, of course it is also thanks to Lu Chongnian's face.
After a week of this vigorous publicity campaign, Lu Chongnian became the most famous person in the university town!
In recent days, there have been people posting in the forum every day asking who Lu Chongnian is.
They were full of curiosity, but they couldn't find any information about this mysterious boy after searching the entire Internet. They thought that Gao Zhanyuan's cousin was paid to promote some idol who had not yet debuted, but later they felt that they were doing some weird urban legend.
During breaks at every college, students are discussing "Lu Chongnian".
In every coffee shop and board game hall, people are talking about "Lu Chongnian".
...Unconsciously, everyone discovered that the spin speed of the reflection world had actually begun to increase...
It's not an instantaneous acceleration, but the entire rotation speed is accelerated!
Everyone was amazed. How could Gao Zhanyuan's magical operation bring about such an effect? !
Jiang Shuyue: "I feel like this method can be imitated. It just so happens that the club I joined is going to hold a large-scale event this weekend..."
Bird Brother: "Our cosplay club also has a performance recently..."
Fu Xiaoju: "Then we can also do it at the entrance of our dormitory..."
Mu Yu: "This group is too evil, we can't let Lu Zhongnian find out."
Fu Xiaoju: “?”
Jiang Shuyue: “?”
Hong Yang: “?”
Zhang Huawei: “?”
Mu Yu: "Remember to take more photos and share them when the time comes. Love you guys [presenting flowers]"
