The two people above had no idea what the two people who looked and felt so different talked about. Only the live camera followed them dutifully. The comments rolled over at an exponential rate the moment they started talking, and they stopped after a night.
Shi Yu was woken up by Ji Congyang the next day.
The factory gates were already open, but the sky was still gloomy and it looked like it was going to rain.
The temperature dropped at night, and he huddled in the corner of the rooftop. But the cold air still found its way through the gaps in his clothes and collar. He almost lost consciousness, and when he woke up, it took him several seconds for his vision to become clear.
The center of this closed space had been explored yesterday, and it was about seven or eight kilometers away from the factory. The distance was not far, but the more troublesome thing was that the place was a herbal garden.
"The things grown in that planting base are exclusively for this factory. Ordinary people cannot enter without a certificate. We can only start from this factory." Qiao Yan spread out the map, "Give me some time, I can get the certificates I need, but yours will be more troublesome."
Ji Congyang asked: "Why?"
"Because the proof requires information to be entered in advance." Qiao Yan glanced at the three people in front of him, "I'm afraid you all have to go to the Human Resources Department."
Ji Congyang originally thought that he had to find someone to change the costume again, until this task fell on him again. He was stunned for a moment: "Why me?"
Qiao Yan: "You can find someone who is willing to replace you."
Ji Congyang looked at his companion with a paralyzed face, then looked at his idol who was silent the whole time, and finally looked at the new stutterer for five seconds.
Chang Jue opened his mouth and said, "How about I do it?"
Ji Congyang: "..."
He speaks at such a speed that he takes three breaths to say a word. Even if the other party is willing, he is not confident to hand over this task to him!
※
Ten minutes later, Ji Congyang led the way into the office building.
Because it was early in the morning, not many people had arrived yet. Ji Congyang responded to the greeting from the first HR lady sitting at the door, then he slipped to a deserted place and turned on his computer.
I don't know how long the computer was on. The small circle on the screen kept spinning for a while and finally jumped out of the desktop.
Qiao Yan took over the rest of the operation, half-knelt on the ground, moved the keyboard to his knees, and began to type skillfully: "Hand."
"ah?"
"fingerprint."
"Oh." Ji Congyang put his finger on the collector on the table.
Chang Jue whispered beside him, "You even know how to do this?"
Qiao Yan didn't even raise his eyelids.
Ji Congyang replied: "He has learned it."
In fact, it was because the other party's job was to do this, but since it was related to real life, Ji Congyang would not reveal the information of his companions, and only said this vaguely.
Chang Jue seemed not to notice his perfunctory response: "Thanks a lot, thanks to you, you."
There were gradually voices outside, and someone walked into the office on the floor.
Anyway, he had already entered his part, so Ji Congyang quickly ran to the door to delay time to deal with the visitor.
The second person to enter was Xiao Jieba.
Chang Jue didn't wait for instructions and took the initiative to put his hand on the collector. He met Qiao Yan's cold gaze and blinked innocently and harmlessly.
Qiao Yan lowered his head and continued to deal with the third certificate.
The first employee who arrived was only delayed for five or six seconds. Fortunately, her seat was far away, so she sat down and started to deal with her own business.
Ji Congyang followed the first person in and found that the other party had no intention of coming over to inspect, so he simply picked up Chang Jue who had already finished entering the data to deal with the next person together.
Chang Jue knew that now was not the time to fall out, and he still wanted to stay in this temporary team, so he did not resist.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I met two employees coming in together.
This time it took a few seconds longer as one of them walked over to the desk near the door and sat down, while the other walked all the way behind the computer that had been temporarily commandeered by the crowd and turned around.
Before I could even scream, the back of my neck felt numb.
Chang Jue knocked the man unconscious, then squatted down and laid the man horizontally on the ground.
Ji Congyang caught up and witnessed this scene, his eyes widened: "You you you..."
Chang Jue raised his head and made a "shut up" gesture to him.
Ji Congyang shut up and looked at the other person's timid and cowardly appearance, wondering if this is what it means to be able to judge a person by his appearance?
Qiao Yan had already entered his information and started making the fourth copy.
"Shi Yu."
No one responded.
He turned his head and moved closer: "Shi Yu."
The other party just lowered his eyes and leaned against the foot of the desk.
Shi Yu felt cold all over, his consciousness became hazy, and he couldn't even hear the sounds around him clearly.
Until someone pulled his hand and pressed his fingers on the collector.
He suddenly became clear-headed, and when he looked up, he saw Qiao Yan letting go of his hand: "I called you but you didn't respond, so I helped you."
Qiao Yan pressed the enter key, and before she retracted her outstretched hand, she touched his forehead: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Shi Yu stepped back and shook his head.
More people poured in through the doorway.
Ji Congyang and Chang Jue, who were blocking the door, finally aroused suspicion. Someone asked, "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"
There are not too many employees on this floor, but not too few either. If we must make an analogy, the relationships between people are probably just like classmates in college. As long as you put in a little effort, you can get to know each other and become friends. But if you really choose to keep people at a distance, it is not uncommon to find that after a few years you still can't match people's faces and names.
That's why they were able to fool the people in front of them.
But now that there are so many people here, anyone who is cheerful and outgoing will be exposed immediately.
Ji Congyang's heart tightened. Just as he was thinking about what excuse he could use to fool the crowd, a voice came from behind him: "Can I delay you for a few minutes?"
Qiao Yan pushed him away: "We are from the Development City Company and are here to introduce our products to you..."
The person who initially questioned it interrupted directly: "Salesman?"
Qiao Yan said with a blank face: "Strictly speaking, we are called publicity ambassadors."
The one who was questioning them was too lazy to listen to their nonsense: "Alright, alright, get out, we don't need them. Where are the security guards? How come they even let salespeople from other companies into the office?!"
Qiao Yan said "Oh" and pulled Shi Yu out.
Ji Congyang hurriedly followed and came downstairs, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Old Qiao?"
Qiao Yan reached into his pocket and took out a stack of magnetic cards.
※
"Once we get there, should we enter the center of this space from south to north, or from north to south?"
The planting base was not far from the factory, so they just walked.
Qiao Yan tossed the magnetic card up and down: "If it's true what you said, the space gear No. 1 we are in rotates in one direction, and the space gear No. 2 that Chang Jue came from rotates in another direction, and the two directions are exactly opposite. Now the space on the two gears is merging, which one is merging into which one? Are we on gear No. 1 or gear No. 2 now?"
Shi Yu lowered his head and walked in silence for a long while. Only when the other party thought that he had not heard anything did he answer, "From south to north."
"Or is it in the direction we originally entered the center of the circle? So the No. 2 space gear is integrated into the No. 1 gear?" Qiao Yan asked, "Why?"
Shi Yu lowered her head, her long hair scattered in front of her, her face was hidden in the shadows, and her voice was slightly hoarse when she spoke: "Probability."
After a few seconds of silence, she continued without waiting for him to ask, "I have passed through four closed spaces since I entered the game, but Chang Jue has only passed through three. If it is a dual-space gear, or even a multi-space gear layout, without knowing the initial spatial distribution on the gears, the probability of each space colliding and merging is the same. If this is the case, then I am more likely to encounter spatial fusion than Chang Jue. But until now, I have not felt the spatial changes outside the time of entering the center of the spatial circle, and I have not encountered another player going in the opposite direction except him. It is likely that the spatial gear I am in is the lowest level of fusion."
Qiao Yan listened to his words and digested them for a moment before he said, "What if we knew how space was distributed in the beginning?"
Shi Yu: "There are three hundred and seventy-nine players in this game."
Qiao Yan was stunned.
"No matter how the space is initially distributed, more than 300 people moving around at the same time can completely disrupt the initial distribution into a random one, so it doesn't matter whether we know it or not."
Qiao Yan was about to ask again, but when he turned around, he saw the other person's pale lips, long eyelashes, and brows that seemed to be unconsciously furrowed.
He looked away and swallowed back the words he was about to say.
With the certificate, there is no obstacle to entering the plantation.
Qiao Yan took a step and stopped, carefully testing his feet. He walked all the way to the center, and finally felt the familiar spatial vibration coming from under his feet.
He had been on high alert, and when he noticed it, he immediately stepped back and looked up at the enclosed herb garden in front of him.
“It’s right here.”
Although Ji Congyang didn't understand the probability theory, he at least remembered the key words, and also remembered the most critical content: "You can only leave if you enter the center of the circle in the direction of the gear rotation, and you will die if you enter in the opposite direction": "Should we go in from this direction?"
"Go south from here." Qiao Yan raised his chin, "Go to the opposite side."
"oh."
Ji Congyang jumped and ran over there.
The two men left one after another, and the only ones left at the end of the team were Chang Jue, besides Shi Yu.
Chang Jue did not follow him, but suddenly raised his hands, clenched them into a knife and slashed at the back of the opponent's neck.
Shi Yu's brain was dizzy. The smell of herbs around him mixed into the air and lingered. The further he moved forward, the stronger it became, making him increasingly mentally exhausted. He only saw a flash of a black shadow in his peripheral vision, and the next second he felt a pain in his neck.
He lost consciousness and fell limply.
Chang Jue grabbed his arm with one hand and smiled: "I didn't expect you to be so weak."
It's such a waste that the boss offered such a high reward.
The two people in front turned around after hearing the noise, and Ji Congyang's eyes widened: "What the hell are you doing?!"
However, in an instant, Qiao Yan had flashed in front of the two men, but was stopped as soon as he stretched out his hand.
Chang Jue restrained him with one hand and kicked him in the chest.
Qiao Yan was unable to break free from his shackles, and couldn't even dodge. He was kicked backwards and staggered for several meters before stopping.
Ji Congyang just happened to run over and help him up. Before he could be surprised to find out which of the two things was more outrageous: the little stutterer in the team who always looked timid actually didn't stutter, or this little boy who was about the same size as him had so much strength, he saw the other party calmly take two steps back.
"It looks like his life is mine."
In the Nine Heavens below the Divine Realm, players cannot kill each other directly unless in a specific mode; but if you really want someone to die, there are countless ways to do so in such a place.
For example, now——
Chang Jue raised his eyebrows provocatively at the two of them, and pushed Shi Yu hard towards the medicine garden!
Shi Yu fell unconscious in the dense grass, his face pale and bloodless.
The position below him coincided with the center of the circle, and the world space began to rotate. Without waiting for anyone present to make any other moves, he disappeared from the spot.
