Gu Chi looked at the time, 22:18.

"Wait a little longer."

When Gu Chi didn't say anything, Lingmao guessed it himself.

"Are we waiting for Chu Tiankuo?" the girl asked.

"Well." Gu Chi looked at the night sky, with deep worry in his words: "Bai Yang and Qian Hui are dead, and they should have reached the last moment. Although I don't know what the speed of time is over there, I feel it should be fast.

I hope Chu Tiankuo can hold on."

I hope Chu Tiankuo can persevere?

Listening to Gu Chi's tone, Lingmao always felt a little strange. She couldn't pinpoint the specific strangeness.

Also, how did Gu Chi know to wait here?

Lingmao was about to ask when a voice came from behind.

"Thank you for your concern. I'm not late, am I?"

Lingmao turned around and was stunned. Is it really Chu Tiankuo?

The man still wears the pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and the smile under the lenses is elegant and gentle. I haven't seen him in so many days - or in so many years. His gentle appearance has not changed at all, but there is a large blood stain on his chest, which is stained.

His white shirt turned red.

"Are you injured?" Gu Chi frowned, walked quickly to Chu Tiankuo, checked his injury, and called Lingmao to heal Chu Tiankuo.

Chu Tiankuo waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's just a minor injury, no need to bother."

Ling Mao lowered the hand he had just raised, feeling a little confused as to why Chu Tiankuo refused treatment.

Could it be that this man is a bitch who likes pain?

Lingmao didn't ask any more questions, but gave Chu Tiankuo a strange look, then obediently retreated to Gu Chi's side.

"Did you also encounter zombies and blizzards?" Gu Chi asked.

Chu Tiankuo nodded: "We also met a white bear on the way to the bell tower."

Gu Chi: "Do you still remember Neil's letter?"

Chu Tiankuo: "He has a father named William who works in the police station."

Gu Chi: "William died in the hospital."

Chu Tiankuo: "Vagrants and sanitation workers."

Gu Chi: "There is no prophet."

Chu Tiankuo: "You should have died long ago."

Gu Chi: "The past and the future."

Chu Tiankuo: "Now."

The two of them talked faster and faster, and the words became fewer and fewer.

In the end, Chu Tiankuo laughed: "Our experiences are the same."

Gu Chi also smiled: "It seems you have guessed where the prophet is."

Chu Tiankuo: "You are very smart."

Gu Chi: "You're not bad either."

Bellcat: “???”

No, what are these two people talking about without any hesitation?

How come they guessed where the prophet was and started exchanging business rumors?

Is this a conversation between high IQ and high IQ? Why can’t she understand a word...

"Lingmao, get out of the way!"

At this moment, Gu Chi suddenly pulled out a pistol, frightening Lingmao and quickly hid aside.

"Bang!"

The harsh sound of gunfire shattered the night.

Not far away, under the street lights, a man twitched and fell in a pool of blood. The plastic bag in his hand had not been thrown into the trash can.

Lingmao's eyes were dull: "Gu Yuan, you... why did you want to kill him?"

Chu Tiankuo was also stunned. He knew the reason why Gu Chi took action, but he didn't expect that Gu Chi would be so decisive and use a gun.

If we attract the police, won't it cause trouble?

"You haven't figured it out yet?" Gu Chi asked Lingmao, "Why are homeless people and sanitation workers the first to be infected when a zombie virus breaks out?"

Because the trash can is the source of infection.

On November 13th of the previous year 5776, this person threw the virus into the trash can in front of them, which led to the zombie apocalypse that followed.

This is also the reason why Gu Chi chose to wait for Chu Tiankuo here.

Chu Tiankuo is a person with very keen observation. This can be seen from the fact that Chu Tiankuo will specifically write down the number of homeless people at the beginning.

Such people are often not bad at thinking.

He could notice someone coming to throw away garbage that night, and so could Chu Tiankuo.

If Chu Tiankuo could successfully reverse time and return to this day, he would definitely come to the door of the hotel to stop the other party from releasing the virus, because this is the most critical step in finding the prophet.

"We must ensure that the prophet can survive until tomorrow." Gu Chi said.

"You mean, the prophet is actually in the city?" Lingmao's little mind didn't turn this corner.

She understood a little bit about ensuring the safety of the prophet. Lingmao remembered that Neil said that if there really was a prophet and he was a low-key person, he would have been torn apart by zombies. But the problem was, they asked so many people that day, and no one had heard of the prophet.

?

"Is the prophet just an inconspicuous child?" Lingmao asked.

"No, no matter how young a child is, as long as he shows the slightest bit of magic, it is impossible for him to be completely unnoticed unless no one understands what he is saying." Gu Chi said, "And Neil mentioned it twice in his words and letters.

I have been to the hospital, and together with the time-reversal scene, the hospital has appeared three times in total."

What kind of person lives in a hospital, speaks in a way that no one can understand, and doesn't attract attention?

Lingmao was a little confused: "Which one?"

"Baby."

Chu Tiankuo pushed up his glasses and gave the answer: "At the time point we are currently at, the prophet is still a newborn baby."

Lingmao was even more confused: "Baby?"

"That's right." Maybe it was because the copy was coming to an end. Gu Chi was particularly patient tonight. He explained: "Neal once mocked the prophet for why he didn't come out to remind everyone to prevent the zombie virus from breaking out. In fact, the prophet has already given the reminder.

, it’s just that no one can understand his cry.”

"Since I don't understand it, I can't say the word 'prophet'."

"After today, the zombie virus will break out, and the hospital that accepts homeless people will become the hardest hit area, and the prophet will die directly at the hands of zombies."

"That's why we couldn't find any news about the prophet from beginning to end."

The prophet could not be found when he was alive, and even less so when he was dead.

Gu Chi had been trying to find a thread that could connect all the clues, and when he turned back time and saw the passing scenes, he found it.

time.

From the start, the most important tips are right in front of them.

The darkest thing is darkness under the lamp.

That's the entire logic of this copy.

It's hard to say it's hard, but it's easy to say it's easy.

Lingmao was completely stunned this time. She looked at Gu Chi with a questioning look.

Regardless of whether the above inference is correct or not, it is really possible for people to figure out so many things based on some extremely fragmentary information.

This man is so awesome...

In fact, there is another point that Gu Chi did not mention: there should be more than "one" prophet.

The 'Eye' exists in every timeline that has not been killed, and these timelines correspond to different time and space. The "zombie line" they experienced is just thousands of parallel time divergences affected by the clock tower.

One of the worlds.

The game deliberately separates the seven players and promotes the same plot in different time and space to remind them of this.

And because of the clock tower, the time in Shigui City is very different from the outside world.

It is a special individual in this world.

It may be that only a few days have passed in the outside world, but decades have passed in Shigui City, or it may be that decades have passed in the outside world, and only a few days have passed in Shigui City.
