Lu Ban came to Drizzt's side first. He stretched out his hand and felt Drizzt's breath.

Fortunately, I'm still breathing.

Although it's quite weak.

He checked Drizzt's body and found no obvious external injuries, but there were some abrasions on the joints. It was obvious that Drizzt had fallen to this position.

As to whether it was due to carelessness or a fight with someone, that was something Trist had to ask himself.

It seems that the blood on his body did not come from him.

"This blood is not his."

Lu Ban said, turning back to look at Xia.

"There must have been no one in this room just now."

Xia looked around. The room seemed to be just like any other room. However, upon closer inspection, she discovered that there were traces of friction on the edge of the table, the chair, and the foot of the bed, as if a big fight had taken place in the room.

"You just said you didn't hear my voice. There's something wrong here. Could it be that we entered different spaces and didn't meet until just now?"

Lu Ban reasoned.

"That's an exaggeration. I might as well say that I was too nervous to hear you enter the hotel."

Xia still doesn't quite agree with this kind of metaphysical stuff. In her opinion, many things that seem strange can actually be explained by science.

As a college student, it is wrong to make subjective assumptions about the causes of things and pursue unrealistic fantasies without thinking about the reasons behind them.

"But Lao Cui is indeed lying here."

Lu Ban gently shook Trist, trying to wake him up.

Drizzt's expression became more serious, as if he had had a nightmare.

Lu Ban had no choice but to search whether there were any other traces on Trist’s body.

Soon, he found three photos in Drizzt's pocket.

“Look, here are the photos.”

Lu Ban and Xia Ya confirmed the three photos.

"These should be photos of the hotel owner, but what's with the last photo? The two people in the photo seem to be dead."

Xia Ya said in confusion. She and Lu Ban passed by here when they were coming back from dinner. Although she did not observe carefully, she confirmed the fact that the owners of the hotel should be two middle-aged men.

At least not children.

"Is there a possibility that we entered the turbulence of time and space in the fog, and the time we experienced was different?"

Lu Ban guessed.

Xia did not comment on Lu Ban's strange idea, but when she saw the state of the room and looked at the photos, she felt a weird feeling.

At this moment, Drizzt's body trembled, and Lu Ban hurried to Drizzt's side. He saw that Drizzt's eyelids trembled and he quickly opened his eyes.

"Are you awake? The operation was successful. You are a girl now."

Lu Ban blurted out.

"?"

Trist was stunned and touched it hurriedly.

"What did you say?"

He retorted subconsciously.

"It seems quite normal."

Lu Ban concluded that at least Trist had not lost his memory or been possessed by some mysterious being.

“I just…”

Trist's eyes were confused for a moment, and then he seemed to remember something.

"I entered the hotel and then..."

"And what happened, Uncle Cui?"

Xia asked hurriedly.

"...Then I heard a noise in this room, so I walked in, and then I seemed to be attacked by something, and I lost consciousness."

Trist glanced at Lu Ban and spoke slowly.

"Anything else besides this?"

Lu Ban asked.

"I'm not sure. There was no one here when I entered the hotel. I only found a few photos..."

Drizzt's tone became clear and certain, and he touched his pocket, but felt nothing.

"You mean these pictures?"

Xia handed the three photos to Drizzt.

"Yes, I remember the owner of the hotel was the person in the photo, but they were dead in the photo."

Drizzt checked the photo again and said.

"What's with all that blood on you?"

Lu Ban asked again.

Only then did Trist look down at the blood that had already coagulated on his body, looking a little confused.

"I don't know..."

"So, you and Uncle Cui entered the hotel, one found the passenger list, and the other found the old photos, but you didn't find each other, and I found nothing..."

Xia pondered.

"I think this fog, and even this island, has fallen into the turbulence of time and space. It's easy for us to walk into different time and space. When there was no fog, the innkeeper and his family were alive and well, but in the fog they seemed to have encountered misfortune. Is it possible that they have indeed been killed, and what we saw during the day was their past?"

Lu Ban expressed his guess.

"Are you serious?"

Xia looked at Lu Ban, her eyes full of disbelief.

This feeling is like a student who is late for class and then tells the dean of studies who is guarding the school gate that he just met aliens who turned into cats and invaded the earth on the road, and after a long and bizarre journey, he saved the earth and finally returned to school.

Outrageous opened the door for Outrageous's mother.

"Indeed, this possibility cannot be ruled out."

Unexpectedly, Trist actually agreed with what Lu Ban said.

"Um?"

Xia looked at Drizzt, and for a moment, she had the illusion that Drizzt was really possessed by some unknown object.

"This fog itself is beyond common sense, and what we just saw in the bar is definitely not something that normal humans can see. I think we should really consider the possibility that at least on this island there may be supernatural phenomena that cannot be explained by common sense."

Drizzt noticed Xia's gaze and explained.

"Instead of blindly denying the current situation, it is better to try to accept it. Maybe you can find the truth."

"Okay, but if this place really turns into some kind of time and space turbulence, what's the point?"

Xia's mind worked quickly. Since she couldn't directly deny Lu Ban's idea, she might as well obey it and think about the current situation from this point of view.

After all, Lu Ban can remember everything and process it in his brain. Maybe some things that Xia didn't even notice have already formed clues due to Lu Ban's super memory.

"What is the meaning of this island? Why does it allow us to enter the past or future?"

There must be a reason behind every phenomenon. Xia believes that if you want to solve the current situation, it is most important to find the root cause.

“Maybe this is not the purpose, but some accident along the way.”

Lu Ban said.

"Putting the jade pendant together with the passenger list I got, the photo in Lao Cui's hand, the case ten years ago, and the behavior of Zou Changyu and his wife, I think that perhaps someone wants to perform some strange ritual on this island to summon the evil god represented by the jade pendant. This mist is just a gift for the ritual."

"Summon... the evil god?"

Xia really didn't understand.
