Yes, if the "discrepancy" of [time] is enough to allow players to cross the barriers of different time and space and reach the other side, then since it is possible now, why not in the past?
If Li Wufang can come from another timeline, then why can't Jiang Chi from before come from it?
This can also explain why Jiang Chi is so mysterious, because he does not belong to this time and space. He is an outsider who stole the identity of Jiang Chi in the current timeline!
But this speculation still has an unexplainable contradiction, that is, why Jiang Chi did not recognize himself, no, it should be why he did not recognize "Cheng Shi" who should have belonged to the same organization in his original timeline.
Cheng Shi was deeply impressed by this time walker. Although the other party called out his name, it was all because of the self-played Zhen Yi farce. The time walker at that time did not show any expression or look that the two had known each other before, and Cheng Shi confirmed that the other party was not pretending, he just did not understand him.
But how do you explain this?
Is this a side effect of traveling through time and space? Or did I join the other timeline after Jiang Chi's "accident"?
"......"
No, we can't go on like this!
So far, this series of speculations are still rootless and without basis, but the blocks on the duckweed are piling up higher and higher, making Cheng Shi more and more frightened. Now he urgently needs a solid foundation to support all of this, otherwise, if he allows fear mixed with imagination to spread, he will be completely crushed to the ground by the "high-rise building" he imagined.
So Cheng Shi's eyes became serious again. He decided to pry some useful information out of the other party as soon as possible. He decided to follow the clue of Jiang Chi's identity and have a "confused" "confession" with Li Wufang!
"No need to look for him." Cheng Shi's expression changed quickly. He curled his lips and looked at the stunned investigator in front of him with a playful smile. Before the other party could ask, he took the lead and continued, "He's dead."
"Dead!?" Li Wufang's eyes widened suddenly, and he asked in astonishment, "Who killed him? No, boss, have you found the gap in time?"
【Time】Gap!
Listen, with just this one word, Cheng Shi understood a lot of things. His heartstrings suddenly tightened, and his guess seemed to be verified.
"No, but just because I didn't find it doesn't mean others can't find it either."
Cheng Shi's words were very vague. He knew that once the topic was extended to Jiang Chi, Li Wufang or that organization, he really would not be able to answer at all.
So the meaning of what he said was that he wanted to draw Li Wufang's attention to his teammates in this trial. No matter who the other party continued to question, when talking about his teammates in this round, he could say a thing or two based on the current information.
As expected, after hearing these words, Li Wufang's face darkened and he frowned.
"Do you suspect that someone has come to our side through the [time] gap?"
“!!!!!!”
What do you mean by coming to our side!?
Although I don’t understand yet, but...this is what I’ve been waiting for you to say!
There was an imperceptible gleam in Cheng Shi's eyes, and he clenched his hands into fists behind his back. He nodded pretentiously, and had basically concluded in his heart that Li Wufang in front of him was definitely the "discrepancy" of [Time]!
Not only that, all the speculations about Jiang Chi just now might have been correct. What this investigator wanted to find was Jiang Chi, who had crossed time and space and left their organization, or in other words, left their timeline!
I just don’t know if this Jiang Chi is the one I saw!
Li Wufang hadn't finished his words yet. He frowned and asked again, "Or did you see them go through the gap to the other side, boss?"
Cheng Shi didn’t know how to answer this question, but he thought a lot during Li Wufang’s pause, and even thought of another question, that is, if the investigator really became one of the “differences” of [Time], then what about the others?
[Time] probably won’t just pick a player with whom he has a “relationship” to “pollute”, right?
Since Li Wufang has become "Canci", Jiang Chi may also be "Canci", then what about the assassination doctor?
Is this believer in the Truth "contaminated"?
Even more terrifying, what about those two fire bearers?
Qin Xin and... um, wait, Qin Xin?
Thinking of Qin Xin, Cheng Shi's hands behind him suddenly clenched a little more.
It’s broken, Qin Xin seems to have a problem too.
He suddenly thought of the scene when he used the "ram's horn" in front of Qin Xin. At that time, Qin Xin asked a repeated question he had asked before. He asked himself whether he wanted to cooperate with [Death]...
But I had clearly used this method of driving the screaming slaves in front of him when the blind man died. Why did he ask such a weird question the second time?
Does this mean that Qin Xin...the founder of Fire Bearer, is also caught in the "discrepancy" of [time]?
Cheng Shi carefully recalled Qin Xin's performance and went through all the details in his memory. The more he examined his memory, the weirder Qin Xin became when they met again, and the blind man seemed to have noticed this weirdness.
So, this founder of the Firebringer who was blessed by [Fraud]... was also fooled?
Cheng Shi didn't dare to think about it anymore. With a hunter around, he didn't have time to think too much. Looking at Li Wufang's increasingly suspicious eyes, Cheng Shi forced an ordinary smile and then made an ambiguous response.
“I didn’t see anything, but I noticed that the blind man seemed a little different from how she was at the beginning of the trial.
Don’t forget, this is His test, who knows the difference between a blind man…”
At this point, Cheng Shi took a gamble. He opened his mouth and made the biggest guess of the day, hoping to use this guess as a bargaining chip to extort more information from Li Wufang.
"Could it be the so-called 'inconsistency'?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Wufang's face changed immediately, but what he was thinking about was not the blind man who was not present, but Cheng Shi, the man in front of him whom he called "boss"!
He seemed not surprised at all by Cheng Shi's statement, and he knew his boss too well. If the "inconsistency" of the trial really fell on the players, then the one who would be the most difficult to find would definitely be the one in front of him!
But soon, before Li Wufang questioned Cheng Shi, Cheng Shi relaxed the other party's nerves.
"That's why I just told you that I have no problem."
Li Wufang was stunned for a moment, then the solemnity on his face faded a little and he let out a long breath.
But just when the investigator figured out everything and was about to smile again, Cheng Shi turned the tables. With one step, he put the scalpel in his hand directly to the other person's throat and said with a half-smile:
"But how can I confirm that there is nothing wrong with you?"
