Ge Dai still remembered the scene when he was transporting the nutrients. The water stains under the boxes also made him feel strange. He was anxious to prepare dinner and did not have enough clues to support him. Ge Dai could only put the water stains behind his mind.
But at this moment, based on his previous inference, he thought of the water stains and felt a chill on his spine.
Whether it was corrosive rain or the destruction of the ship, it was a devastating blow to them. There was a constant storm outside, and the corrosive rain poured down, and there was no escape.
"Go and have a look!" Ge Dai turned around.
He Yu: "Wait."
He didn't waste time and arranged directly: "Wanrenzhan and Zhenxing go to check the warehouse, Qiong and Gedai try to go to the cockpit to see the damage on the surface of the cruise ship. Yuanze, Zhan Te, Jian Yuchen, Tang Ke, go to check the entire cruise ship, I want specific data, Gedai and Qiong cooperate with others."
"Okay." Knowing that time was urgent, everyone agreed and turned around and left.
It is still unknown who caused Barre's death. Maybe there is an "undercover" hidden among them, or there may be hidden dangers... Therefore, even if there is a division of labor, at least two people should be in a group.
And the one whose safety is least guaranteed is He Yu. Ling Buchen and Bo Jingshan stay to protect him, and Eugene drives the boat.
The robot and Qiong are the easiest to obtain accurate data, but Eugene must stay to drive the boat, and the pressure can only be given to Ge Dai and Qiong.
After the eight people left, He Yu looked at the image on the display screen. Outside, it was still as dark as the abyss, as if there was a bloody mouth hidden in the darkness, which could swallow everything cleanly.
Taking a deep breath, he retracted his gaze and took out a notebook and a pen.
While driving the boat, Eugene asked curiously: "He Yu, why don't you explain the problem of disorder? Don't you have enough clues?"
Since the identity of "captain" is only granted by the copy, Eugene's driving skills are quite average, and he has to drive at the fastest speed, so he must devote himself to it.
But now this terrible situation concerns everyone's life and death, so we must pay attention. Even if we devote ourselves to sailing, we still have to pay attention and listen to the progress, which naturally makes us confused.
He Yu wrote and drew on the notebook with a pen, and replied casually: "Hmm."
There is still a lack of information and clues, and the conclusion is less than 80% likely, so he has no intention of saying anything.
Eugene did not give up, but became more interested: "You in the second cycle are cooperating with you now, so how does he convey information to you? How does he tell you the clues he deduced?"
This is very confusing, at least Eugene finds it difficult to imagine how the last self in the cycle cooperates with the current self?
He Yu paused for a moment, then continued writing: "I don't know."
He was responsible for solving the problem, and delivering information was his job. If He Yu tried to do both, it would only delay time and lead to failure again.
Eugene couldn't figure it out, and was still confused: "What if the clues he passed on to you were erased by the hand behind the scenes? After all, some things circulate, and some things don't. Each of our cycles goes in the same direction, but the details are different. Is it possible that the details were modified by the hand behind the scenes?"
He Yu suddenly raised his head and looked at him.
Eugene watched with his peripheral vision, then was slightly startled: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
He raised his voice in disbelief: "Is it really possible that the information can be erased? Then didn't you do useless work in the last cycle?!"
It would be fine to do useless work, after all, the last cycle has passed and the result is already determined .
However, He Yu wants the information from the last cycle!
The He Yu in the second cycle is to deduce the truth and pass it to the He Yu in the third cycle, while the He Yu in the third cycle only needs to solve the problem and save time.
Now, the He Yu in the second cycle can't pass on the information, how can the He Yu in the third cycle solve the problem?
You know, the problems they are facing now are many and complicated.
Who killed Barre?
Is there an undercover among them? What is the truth of the cycle?
How to break the cycle? How to leave alive? And who is the mastermind behind it?
A lot of questions piled up, and now, it's one o'clock in the morning, and there are only seven hours left until eight o'clock in the morning. As soon as eight o'clock arrives, the moment we leave the Kama Strait, if we continue the cycle, we will definitely die.
Hearing this, Ling Buchen and Bo Jingshan both frowned slightly.
He Yu's rimless glasses rested on the wings of his nose, and his eyes were sharp: "You are right, some cycles, some do not cycle, and the 'dead' people can still cycle and live, just erase some information, it's easy."
He lowered his eyes, his fingers flipped through the notebook in his hand, his eyes carefully scanned every page...
Nothing. Nothing
.
If this copy can even erase the records in the book, then the information he left in the previous cycle must also be erased, leaving him with nothing.
Could the last self guess it?
Yes.
Definitely could guess it.
Therefore, the information transmitted by the last self must have been transmitted in an indelible way.
He hasn't received much information yet, is it not time yet?
He Yu closed his eyes slightly, covering the sharpness in his eyes.
At this time, the others returned one after another.
Wanrenzhan was the first to return, with a heavy expression and a hurried tone: "Zhenxing and I went to check the warehouse, and sure enough, there was water in it, black, corrosive seawater." The
underground warehouse was flooded, and there was nothing to replenish it. The ship would sink sooner or later...
Eugene was breathing rapidly.
Ling Buchen pursed his lips and stood behind He Yu without saying a word.
Bo Jingshan stood up slowly, holding the knife, staring at Wanrenzhan closely.
He Yu was not surprised at all: "Where is the data?"
Wanrenzhan: "Take note of the data in the cockpit and go to the warehouse to record it."
His heart was in a panic, but in He Yu's calm gaze, he gradually calmed down.
- Anxiety and panic are useless.
Ten minutes later, everyone returned and brought back very bad news.
Yuan Ze frowned: "Sure enough, the damage to the special material of the cruise ship's hull is not cyclical. I thought that with this cruise ship, we at least don't have to be afraid of corrosive rainwater, but I didn't expect..."
Zhan Te took a deep breath, his face grim: "The warehouse is damaged, a lot of corrosive seawater has seeped in, and the room in the corner of the first floor also has a small gap similar to the cockpit, and corrosive rainwater has entered. We moved the carpets, tables and chairs and other things over there."
Of course, they didn't move them over there to block the gaps, because nothing could stop the black corrosive rainwater.
They just used these things to delay the corrosion of the cruise ship, and what they lacked most was time.
- Of course, it wouldn't last long.
He Yu nodded.
Zhenxing thought for a moment and suggested: "We can use everything to delay the corrosion time. As long as we delay it until eight o'clock tomorrow morning, maybe we can see a turnaround."
Ling Buchen frowned and shook his head, rejecting the suggestion: "We will leave the Kama Strait at eight o'clock in the morning. We will cycle again. Even if we can barely delay it until eight o'clock, we must think of a way to get out of the cycle."
Otherwise, as soon as eight o'clock arrives, they will declare failure.
The time point of eight o'clock is what they want to insist on, but also what they are afraid to face.
He Yu stretched out his hand: "Gedai, data."
Gedai handed all the recorded data to He Yu. The Kama Strait is very special. It is naturally impossible to use the smart computer communication in a place where corrosive rain can fall.
But as long as the smart computer can be turned on, the most basic recording function can be used.
Ge Dai himself can be transformed into a very useful detector. The signal interference from the Gama Strait has little impact.
He Yu dragged a chair over, sat down, and stared at the data closely. Obviously, he entered the calculation state, and occasionally picked up a pen to write and draw on the notebook.
At this moment, he was like a high-precision computer backstage, calculating frantically.
In his mind, one number after another passed by.
Others did not dare to disturb him. They looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
Qiong sighed: "This copy is really difficult."
Jian Yuchen: "The closer we get to the finals, the harder it will be. The mastermind wants to keep us and won't give us a chance to enter the finals."
Zhan Te was a little surprised: "If we die, then there will be no 'top stream' this time?"
Ge Dai had a blank expression and a cold voice: "Does it matter? Although we haven't guessed who the mastermind is, everyone knows that the mastermind exists and has interfered with the 'Top Stream Selection'."
Everyone knows that there is a mastermind, and everyone knows that the mastermind is interfering in the preliminary selection.
In this case, it's better to go all out and be a little ruthless, so what?
Tang Ke murmured: "There was a massacre of ten thousand people in the last session, but this time... is it a total annihilation?"
Qiong frowned and fell into thought: "I think it's a bit strange. The person behind the scenes didn't want to expose himself at the beginning, so the traces of interference were very light, so that people could not find evidence and we could find a way out. But as He Yu was about to find out the other party's identity, the traces of interference became obvious, and now, they are even a little reckless..."
"What's strange?" Zhan Te was puzzled.
Eugene drove the boat and replied softly: "If the other party is cautious, they will give a copy rule with a fallback, so that He Yu can find a loophole for promotion. Now the other party is ready to annihilate us, which means they don't care. Since they don't care, why don't they just wipe us out?"
This is a bit strange! It would be
so easy to just wipe them out, why go through so much trouble?
This gave people a very contradictory feeling, as if the other party wanted to clean them up quickly and efficiently, but kept wavering...
Zhenxing murmured: "Could it be that if the other party wiped them out directly... they would reveal their identity to the outside world?"
It's very likely!
What kind of identity would be discovered if they wiped people out directly?
Qiong grabbed his head and collapsed: "Who is the mastermind behind this?"
At this time, He Yu suddenly raised his head, closed the notebook, licked his dry lips, and said calmly: "I have bad news and good news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Everyone: "..."
Qian Yuchen: "Listen to the bad news first..."
He Yu nodded: "The bad news is that according to the current trend, the cruise ship can only hold on until 6 o'clock in the morning. Even if we use all our equipment to delay time, we can only delay until 7 o'clock in the morning. The gap in the cruise ship is gradually getting bigger, especially the gap in the warehouse will continue to expand under the impact of sea water, accelerating the sinking."
Everyone's heart sank.
Sure enough...
The cruise ship can't hold on at all, and can't leave the Strait of Kama!
Zhan Te asked hurriedly: "What's the good news?"
He Yu twirled the pen with her fingers and smiled: "The good news is that I have a way to change the situation and even extend the time we can stay in the Kama Strait, so that we have more time to solve the circulation problem."
