Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5605 (five thousand six hundred and five)
"That's right." The Gray Hand said, "But where do these sounds come from? Are they really coming from his abdomen?"

"That crash must have come from his belly," said the Brown-Handed Man.

"What about the second ticking sound?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I can't be sure for now." said the brown-handed man.

"I thought of another question." said the Gray Hand Man.

"What's the problem?" asked the Brown Hand Man.

"When we talk about 'first time' and 'second time' now, are these expressions really appropriate?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"When we say 'first' and 'second', we mean the number of times the ticking sound occurs, right?" said the brown-handed man.

"Yes," said the Gray Hand Man, "I think so."

"Why do you ask that again?" asked the Brown-Handed Man.

"Because I have some doubts whether this so-called second time really exists." said the man with gray hands.

"Oh?" The brown-handed man asked, "Do you think there is a possibility that the ticking sound is continuous and has never really disappeared in the middle, but has become so small that we can't hear it, so the so-called second ticking sound is actually the first ticking sound?"

"I have thought of this, but I don't have enough evidence to prove it." said the Gray Hand Man.

"It seems that many of the things that happened here cannot be proven by any evidence, right?" asked the brown-handed man.

"That's right," said the Gray Hand Man.

The brown-handed man added, "But what you said may really be a problem."

The Gray Hand Man said, "You think so too?"

"Did the ticking sound just now really disappear?" asked the man with brown hands.

"What did you see just now?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I naturally thought it was really gone just now," said the Brown-Handed Man.

"Just by listening?" said the Gray Hand Man. "Not just by listening," said the Brown Hand Man, "It also uses some of the special senses of people like you and me."

"You used it right then too?" said the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." said the Brown Hand Man, "You used it too?"

"That's right." The Gray Hand Man said, "What was the result of using your special sense just now?"

“It tends to be that the ticking sound disappeared during that period,” said the brown-handed man.

"It just 'tends to'?" Gray Hand said, "In other words, I didn't have that definite feeling, nor was I sure that the ticking sound really disappeared during that period, right?"

"Yes." The brown-handed man said, "During that time, you also didn't have any definite feelings, right?"

"That's right." The Gray Hand said, "I don't have a definite feeling. If I did, I wouldn't say that."

The brown-handed man said, "Are you also 'inclined'?"

"That's right," said the Gray Hand Man.

The brown-handed man asked, "What is the probability that the 'tendency' we feel is accurate?"

"It's hard to say." The Gray Hand said, "This place is not like other places, and the current situation is not like the previous situation."

The brown-handed man said, "That's true. We are in a special environment right now, and many things are hard to judge."

The Gray Hand Man said, "Do you feel anything now?"

"How do you feel about what just happened?" asked the brown-handed man.

"Yes." said the man with gray hands.

"I now feel that the ticking sound should have stopped." said the man with brown hands.

"So, it happened twice in total?" The Gray Hand asked, "During that time, the ticking sound really disappeared, and it wasn't just getting smaller?"
