Chapter 171: Hard-to-Trigger Echo
Chu Tianqiu was sitting in a dark room eating breakfast when he suddenly heard a faint knock on the door.
"What?" he asked.
"He has a question... he wants to ask you." said the man outside the door.
"Let me guess..." Chu Tianqiu slowly touched his chin, "Maybe... you want to ask me how long I have been here?"
"That's right." The black figure outside the door nodded.
"It's so interesting." Chu Tianqiu showed a meaningful smile, "Qi Xia, this is the right thing..."
"It's all my fault..." The voice outside the door sounded hesitant, "I didn't expect Qi Xia to see the flaw."
"It has nothing to do with you." Chu Tianqiu shook his head, "Even if you can hide it from everyone, you can't hide it from Qi Xia. He will find out sooner or later, but it will be much sooner than I expected."
"So how do you answer this question?" A somewhat embarrassed voice said outside the door, "He said that if you answer wrong, you will be "out" completely. "
"Really?" Chu Tianqiu nodded slightly and came to sit down at the table. There was a notebook there.
There are many unexplained words written in the notebook.
There are "angry", "despair", "fear", "reluctance", "missing", "pride", "sadness", "regret" and many other emotions, which fill a whole page, but strangely there are many Words have been crossed out.
"Has Qi Xia not "responsed" yet? Chu Tianqiu asked.
"No." said outside the door.
Chu Tianqiu's face darkened, he picked up a pen and crossed out "regret".
There is only one word "sadness" in the notebook today.
He capped the pen, tapped the word "sadness" gently with his finger, and said, "I may have found the answer."
"Really?" The black figure outside the door also began to think, "Could it be that... the "regret" we gave Qi Xia was simply not enough? "
"Oh?" Chu Tianqiu thought for a moment, "You mean... he doesn't care about the lives of his teammates at all?"
"I can't tell." The man outside the door replied, "I can't tell anything from his expression."
"Interesting." Chu Tianqiu nodded, "That means he fell into the trap on purpose... He did it knowingly that he couldn't do it, and he wanted to fish out my existence even if he lost his teammates."
"Losing teammates..." The voice outside the door sounded hesitant, "Tianqiu, we also lost two teammates... Is the person named Qi Xia that important? Is he even more important than Jin Yuanxun?"
Chu Tianqiu did not answer this question. He was silent for a while and then asked: "Did Ringo join "Tiantiankou"? "
"yes."
"What a rare scene in a century..." Chu Tianqiu knocked on the table, "I'm going to meet her."
"But, she is the "Ultimate Dao"! "The voice outside the door sounded a little panicked.
"There are not many "Jikakus" with such seniority. "Chu Tianqiu stood up slowly, "There is still a difference between her and those new lunatics. "
There was silence for a long time outside the door, and then he said, "I understand."
Chu Tianqiu smiled slightly: "Is your mouth still hurting after being hit by Qi Xia?"
There was no answer outside the door. After a long time, he slowly asked: "How do you want to answer Qi Xia's question?"
"It's not hard, you tell him 'I never left'. "
…
Qiao Jiajin was holding a cloth bag and was in a particularly beautiful mood.
"Psychiatrist, writer, you two are quite smart."
He opened the cloth bag and counted. This time, he actually made six "ways" in the "human dog" game.
I just don’t know if the six “ways” are enough to buy wine?
Ringo frowned slightly, reached for the cloth bag, and inadvertently touched Qiao Jiajin's finger.
Qiao Jiajin didn't pay attention. When he saw the cloth bag was taken away, he put his hands into his pockets.
Lin Ye sighed slightly and asked, "Qiao Jiajin, what are you thinking about?"
"What am I thinking?" Qiao Jiajin blinked, "Why do you ask so bluntly?"
He wanted to buy wine with "Tao", but unfortunately he couldn't say so directly.
"I..." Ringo felt that Qiao Jiajin was a little strange.
Like Qi Xia, he had no sign of "reverberation" no matter how he touched it.
Ringo felt that if he wanted to fully activate Qiao Jiajin's ability, he should release all his "reverberations", but that would trigger the bells and things would get a little tricky.
"Are you suppressing your heart?" Ringo asked.
"What?" Qiao Jiajin was stunned for a moment, "Why should I suppress my heart?"
Although Qiao Jiajin denied it, Ringo still found out the clues.
She felt that Qiao Jiajin was not the real Qiao Jiajin, or that he was not being himself.
"Qiao Jiajin, think about who you are." Ringo said, "Don't suppress your inner thoughts."
"Myself...?" Qiao Jiajin's eyes slowly turned cold.
"Who are you? Do you have any unfulfilled wishes before coming here?"
"I……"
There seemed to be a faint bell ringing in Qiao Jiajin's ears.
If there is no disguise, the taste of memories will be extremely bitter.
"I'm like this myself." Qiao Jiajin interrupted his thoughts, turned around with a smile and said, "Psychiatrist, I don't have money to make an appointment with you, so you don't need to see a doctor for me."
He stretched out his arms lazily, and then walked forward.
Ringo knew that it was not a bad thing that Qiao Jiajin's "reverberation" was difficult to trigger.
This shows that his "echo" is very powerful.
Ringo turned his head and looked at Han Yimo helplessly, muttering to himself: "At least it is much more powerful than "bringing disaster". "
The three of them were wandering aimlessly in the city and were about to go to the next game when they suddenly heard a huge bell.
"What?" Ringo was stunned for a moment. The bell sounded very close.
Who "responsed"?
Is it one of our own?
"Let's go take a look." Ringo pointed towards the place where the bell rang, and the three of them immediately changed direction.
But when they just walked to the huge display screen, the deafening bells sounded again.
"Echo" is over.
Only the words "lonely" were left on the screen.
“I heard the echo of ‘call for disaster’. "
"Just now was the dying person "echoing"? " Ringo's mouth moved slightly and he muttered to himself.
Qiao Jiajin stared at the screen and thought for a while, then asked: "Whose "echo" is "bringing disaster"? Why is it always there? "
"Yes..." Lin Ju glanced at Han Yimo and found that he had no reaction. He could only say angrily, "I don't know either."
The three people waited in front of the screen for a while, but found nothing else. When they were about to leave, several lines of words appeared on the screen as if they were being refreshed.
What followed was a huge and continuous sound of bells. The three people standing in front of the giant bell were shaken by the sound and found it difficult to stand still.
“I heard the echo of ‘putting the blame on’. "
“I heard the echo of cause and effect. "
“I heard the echo of the ‘original’. "
In addition to the original word "call for disaster", there are four lines of words flashing on the screen at the same time, which looks particularly scary.
"What, what's going on?" Han Yimo was stunned on the spot.
