Chapter 251 Nightmare (12) - Gray Sky
There were a lot of people at the subway station, and there happened to be a subway near the station, and many pedestrians with numb expressions stepped down from it. They followed the rule of walking to the right expressionlessly, and passed by another group of numb people.

"Passengers please abide by the rules, get off first and then get on..."

The broadcast is mechanical and rigid, but with a comfortable softness, repeating words over and over again.

Yu Xing walked in from the east entrance and looked around. He only looked at him slightly to make some passers-by notice. Those who played with mobile phones, waited for others, and chatted all paid more attention to him, and looked at him from time to time. glance.

A group of people just got out of the car and walked past him in a dusty environment. He glanced at him from the corner of his eye, then retracted his gaze, and walked towards Zhao Ruru who was waiting in front.

"You came so fast?" Zhao Ruru was touching the red strap around his wrist, and saw Yu Xing when he raised his head inadvertently. She came up to meet him, a little surprised, "How long has it been?"

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows and corrected: "Three 10 minutes, it's not fast."

He came out of the cemetery, took a taxi, and walked into the subway station. The time it took was definitely not fast for an anxious person, especially when the mission target was lost. How could Zhao Ruru say such a thing.

Unless—she was really surprised.

Sure enough, Zhao Ruru took out his mobile phone, pulled out a tired smile, and glanced at the screen: "Three 10 minutes? Are you kidding, it's just... eh!?"

"Really... wait, why is it almost two o'clock?" She froze for a moment, then frowned tightly, "Zhou Xue and I just took the high-speed train, it couldn't have taken so long."

Zhao Ruru's palm was hot, and she was holding a coin in her clenched right hand: "The time is not right."

When she called Yu Xing just now, she also looked at her phone, but she didn't pay attention to the time.

Before she knew it, time seemed to pass too fast, so fast that she couldn't imagine what she had done to fill such a big vacancy.

"Yes~ Congratulations, you finally realized that there is a time gap between us, and this time seems to be based on mine." Yu Xing's time passed normally. With his hands in his pockets, he felt the time around him. There were too many people and it was inconvenient to talk, so I raised my chin towards a corner with few people, and motioned to talk there.

But in fact, there is nothing in the subway station that cannot be heard. Both of them need to maintain the characters of their roles in front of the NPCs, so they can only talk briefly.

Yu Xing leaned against the pillar of the site, with a gloomy face: "Is there any sign before she leaves?"

For a moment, Zhao Ruru thought that Yu Xing was imitating Zhao Yijiu, but after two seconds, he realized that Yu Xing had told her about his character design last night, and it was such a strange appearance.

Maybe...artists are weird?
She put aside the momentary thought of having something and nothing, and replied: "No, I got off the car before her, and it disappeared as soon as I turned around."

Yu Xing accepted the scrutiny of the passers-by around him, and was accustomed to these gazes, and continued, "Could it be that she didn't get out of the car at all?"

Zhao Ruru was amused: "Do you think I'm mentally retarded?"

She couldn't figure out the difference between not getting out of the car and disappearing after getting out of the car?
"Oh." Yu Xing was just talking casually. He looked at the crowded subway station and heard Zhao Ruru repeating how she "worried about her neighbors". Arrived, let’s go out and have a look first?”

Since Zhou Xue can disappear, this place cannot be viewed with common sense. Instead of hoping to find Zhou Xue in any corner, it is better to wait for Zhou Xue to appear by herself after exiting the subway station.

It is useless to spend time doing useless work here. Zhou Xue's safety temporarily does not mean that she will be safe after a while. Time is not to be wasted.

Zhao Ruru just wanted to find an excuse to gather with Yu Xing. She had to have the same amount of information as Yu Xing, otherwise it would be easy for ghosts to take advantage of her.She naturally agreed to Yu Xing's proposal.

By the way, she also "told" Yu Xing about Zhou Xuemeng's encounter with a ghost on the grounds of worry, which was a supplement to the setting, so that Yu Xing's subsequent appearance in front of Zhou Xue provided a reasonable explanation.

The two of them had a lot of calculations and walked out all the way. Yu Xing came in through the east gate, and this time he and Zhao Ruru left through the west gate.

Another train stopped, and the two people in the car left these disturbing voices behind and took the elevator up.

The end of the elevator is the exit, and not far away is a commercial street with many buildings of various colors, but when they went out, when they looked up, what they saw was not the beautiful blue sky with sparkling clouds like when they went out, but a gray sky that seemed to be covered by a layer of gray. The sky like black gauze.

Just like the evening on a cloudy day, the boundless fading cloth envelops the world, as if they are about to fall into another layer of empty dreams together.

Street lamps with unique shapes lit up, reflecting in Yu Xing's black pupils, replacing the disappearing stars, reflecting a sprinkling of stars.

Yu Xing's shadow is not very clear and elusive in these illusory lights.

He looked at the sky, thinking flashed in his eyes, stepped out of the elevator, and stepped into the hustle and bustle.

"It's evening...?" Zhao Ruru looked around in amazement, and had some new ideas about the background setting of the task at this stage.

Before, when I first came in, this world was very normal, as if everything in the "real world" was stable and followed the rules, while the "dream world" was completely separated from reality, which belonged to Zhou Xue alone.

So subconsciously, both she and Yu Xing thought that there would be no regular weirdness in the "real world", unless it was like going to the cemetery on purpose to trigger a plot.

But what happened?Zhou Xue disappeared in "reality" without a sound, and the sky turned from blue to gray black when they didn't see it.

It shows that this "real world" is not as peaceful as they imagined. Under the illusion of hustle and bustle, undercurrents are raging.

Zhao Ruru looked at the phone again, only to see that a few minutes ago, the number was more than one o'clock and close to two o'clock, but now it has become more than six o'clock, and it is about to enter the night.

"It seems that we have misunderstood the three-day time limit." Yu Xing was beside her, and his tone was very calm. Zhao Ruru even suspected that he had expected this kind of thing to happen before he came to the subway station to find her. , so now it's nothing more than expected.

"There is no need to protect her for 72 hours. Sometimes the time will be skipped by a long time." He stopped in the square, "There was almost no time skipped yesterday, but today there must be a reason for jumping one after another."

"Is this reason the key?" Zhao Ruru rarely met Yu Xing's brainwaves in exhaustion, "By the way! Could Zhou Xue's disappearance be related to the time jump? It happened that the time changed at that time, so she disappeared in place , In fact, she went to another timeline normally?"

"In her eyes, I can just swipe it and it will be gone, but because I can't receive text messages from another timeline, I can only receive the text messages from that time."

　I keep writing tonight, post as much as I write, until I go to sleep.
