Chapter 386 Money Mania 20
After returning to Lele's room and closing the door, the two quickly separated.
Lele sat on the sofa and said, "As expected, Ishtar sent people to the basement and saw Chen Jia's previous works. Fortunately, I got rid of that thing in advance, so they won't know about it."
Yi Li nodded and praised: "You did very well, very good."
Hearing this, Lele raised his head confidently: "Don't you even look at who I am?"
As soon as he sat down on the stool, Ishtar's doubts were completely dispelled.
Now, in Ishtar's eyes, she and Lele are simply a pair of eccentric couple.
…
The rain was pouring down, the thunder was roaring, and the factory, which had once emitted black smoke from its chimneys, was now burning in the heavy rain.
Boom!
A violent explosion sounded.
The whole earth was shaken.
Fire trucks and drones quickly rushed into the burning and exploding factory to rescue people from this unexpected disaster.
The media rushed to the front lines carrying heavy cameras to broadcast live.
Behind them were rows of fire trucks with their warning lights flashing.
Water trucks were transported in one by one. The blazing flames illuminated half the sky. It was originally dark around the city, but now it was like dusk.
Yi Li sat in the living room and watched the news report and raised his eyebrows.
This is where EOM produces special medicines. Who makes them?
Just when she was curious, she heard a loud noise from upstairs.
She was startled.
After she went upstairs, she saw Lele walking towards her with a look of shock, and whispered in her ear: "Do you know what just came into my room?"
Yili looked at the excited Lele in front of him and asked in confusion: "What is that?"
When the butler heard the noise and came over, he saw the two people behaving intimately.
"Master, there seemed to be a loud noise in the building just now. I was just about to come and take a look."
The butler said respectfully.
Before Yili could speak, Lele spoke first: "I accidentally knocked over the shelf, and I've already picked it up."
Although the housekeeper was a little skeptical when he heard this, he didn't dare to say anything more when he saw Yi Li was there.
"You step back, I'll go take a look."
Yi Li spoke.
The butler breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes."
Yili and Lele went to her bedroom and saw a girl covered in blood. Yili was stunned when their eyes met.
It was a face that looked very similar to his own.
The girl sat up breathlessly and looked at Yi Li: "Finally we meet, the other me."
Yi Li was stunned when he heard this: "Another me?"
The girl came up to Yi Li and pushed the blood-stuck hair behind her ear. A hint of sarcasm hung on the corner of her mouth: "What? How are you living my life in this world? It seems like you are having a very happy life."
Yi Li: "..."
She was silent, her mind a little confused.
What does it mean to take a look at her identity in this world?
Wasn't she reborn as an abandoned baby who was buried alive?
"Let me introduce myself. I am you."
She looked at Yili: "You can call me 0.5."
"0.5?"
Yili looked at her.
"It seems you really have lost your memory. This is a gradient game. If you continue like this, you are doomed to die."
0.5 looked at Yili and reminded him.
"Who are you then?"
"I am naturally you in this world, you from ten thousand years ago."
0.5 looked at Yili and said, "I am your past, and you are my future. Now, you have replaced me. If you don't go back, not only will you stay here forever, but I will also be destroyed by time."
As she spoke, she ripped open her collar, revealing her skin wrapped in black lines. The black lines were deep and transparent. If you looked through the strange cracks, you could even glimpse the Milky Way from the universe.
Her skin was like a cracked porcelain vase, which was shocking to look at. There were bloody scars all over it, deep enough to see the bones.
"Why should I believe your words?"
Although Yili already believed the words of this person who looked exactly like him, he still remained somewhat cautious.
Because this woman was so weird. She had a face that looked exactly like mine, but she was saying something that he couldn't understand.
What gradient game, what destruction, she had never come into contact with these, so naturally she was a little more wary of her.
0.5 looked at Yili and said, "If you don't believe me, you can touch me."
She stretched out her hand and placed it in front of Yili, revealing the bleeding wound: "Touch it and you will know."
Upon hearing this, Yi Li bumped into him.
Lele next to him widened his eyes.
No! You just touched it so softly!
Aren't you afraid of what she might do to you?
The shocking thing is that Yili couldn’t even reach 0.5.
She looked at 0.5, and 0.5 looked at her: "Now you believe that I am you in this world."
Yili: "...Then why did I become like this?"
"Because your future significant other wants to kill you."
"What's the meaning?"
Yi Li looked at the 0.5 in front of him and was confused.
"If we were to be connected by a line in time, I would be you before you. After me, something happened and I split myself apart. One part became the other you who wanted to kill you and control the Gradient Game. The other part became the you who lost your memory and wanted to destroy the Gradient Game to save the world."
0.5 said word by word, "To put it more simply, I've gone insane. You and another you appeared, wanting to kill you. But because of the rules, you can never kill yourself. She can only rely on the gradient to slowly trap you to death. For example, this world right now, this game world that already has an ending - Money Mania."
Yi Li looked at her: "You mean, I am you from the future, or only half of you?"
0.5 nodded.
"If that's the case, then why am I still here? What role are you playing now?"
Yi Li was very confused. She felt like she was hiding a lot of secrets.
What I always thought was the real world turned out to be just an escape game.
0.5 looked at her and said, "Now I am just an NPC in this game, an NPC with memories. That's why I call myself 0.5. I am just a reflection left behind by time."
Yili looked at 0.5 and said, "You want to help me win?"
0.5 raised an eyebrow: "Is it difficult to understand?"
"Why? I have nothing, why do you want to help me win?"
Yi Li looked at her: "According to you, I think my other half is more worthy of your investment and help."
"The reason I split you two apart was precisely because I wanted to see if the pure me would still go down the same path as before."
0.5 looked at her, as if looking through Yili at another version of himself: "Back then, I was too greedy, so greedy that I didn't hesitate to turn the entire world into my assets. In my time, there was no surrogacy, no capital, no EOM special potion, only the kind and simple NCOD39 aliens."
