My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 284 I Know Where She Is
"I'm 26 now, and I've quit smoking for less than half a year. I often go out with friends for barbecue or supper at night, and I drink beer all the time. I stay up late every day and hardly ever go to bed before 2 or 3 in the morning. I've been busy lately, so I haven't had time to shave. I've been in the 'shadow world' for a while, and before I came in, I was always tense for 10 to 20 hours. It would be a problem if I didn't look haggard."

Zhuang Xiao pointed at his temples and said, "I already have a few white hairs."

Shu Die stared at Zhuang Xiao in shock with tears in her eyes, "Brother Xiao!!!"

What a good atmosphere! All ruined by his few words!
"What's wrong!" Zhuang Xiao pointed confidently, "You youngsters just don't understand! I'm watching an anime now! In it, a 17-year-old high school girl is called a senior! And she's also a queen!
"But women of twenty-five are considered young girls in my eyes! I think you don't understand at all!"

As he spoke, Zhuang Xiao pointed at An Lan who was sitting "above his head" and said, "It's her! Her age is the standard unmarried young woman in anime! Her character is usually serious and solemn, but after get off work, she drinks and acts crazy!"

An Lan smiled gently, her beautiful eyes half-closed, "Don't drag me into this. Besides, you and I are the same age."

Zhuang Xiao sneered, "Peers? I've seen you in your eighties. If the timeline hadn't changed, I should have squatted by your bedside to take a photo with you."

Shu Die opened her starry eyes wide, looked up at the gentle and beautiful An Lan, "Over eighty years old? Isn't that the same as the eldest brother!"

Zhuang Xiao and An Lan looked at each other.

This is a real deal.

The leader of the Shudie Alliance is a Shudie who is over 80 years old.

And people of this age.
It is most likely the elderly Shu Die in An Lan's timeline.

But it could also be other Shudie.

Anyway, I will find a chance to go and see it later, so there is no need to rush.

Having learned the information he wanted to know, Zhuang Xiao then asked, "Xiaodie, where have you been since you came to this 'shadow world'?"

Shu Die sat cross-legged on the ceiling, tapping her chin with her fingers as she recalled, "I came out of the warehouse, then drove to the elementary school, junior high school, and high school, but I couldn't find anyone.

"Anyway, these are the only places I know. The house in the community on Jianshe Road is one of the other addresses I summarized, so I decided to try my luck and go take a look. But before that, I went to your house, Brother Xiao, which was also one of the addresses they gave me."

She looked up at An Lan, who was sitting with her legs crossed and looking relaxed, and then shrugged, "In the end, I met this sister. She deliberately made a noise to attract those zombies, and I was chased and ran away."

"Oh, right! I just remembered it when you told me that!" Zhuang Xiao looked up and asked An Lan, "Are you okay?"

Why did An Lan want to lead this girl Gao Shudie away?
The answer is simple, because she was not sure she could defeat the opponent.

Firstly, this Gao Shudie is obviously a sporty girl, and secondly, she was injured when she killed another Shudie before.

An Lan smiled, "Handsome guy, are you concerned about me?"

"What else?" Zhuang Xiao wondered, "Of course I care about you."

An Lan opened her mouth and slowly lowered her eyes.

This guy just likes to hit the ball straight.

A sincere and straight shot is perfect for queens!

Especially the kind with high attack and paper defense.

Seeing An Lan lowering her head, Zhuang Xiao didn't know what she was thinking, so he turned to ask Shu Die, "Xiao Die, where were you planning to go next?"

Shu Die did not hide anything, "As I just said, Brother Xiao, I plan to go to the community on Jianshe Road."

Zhuang Xiao and An Lan looked at each other.

An Lan nodded slightly.

Zhuang Xiao then said: "Then you don't have to go, I came from that side."

Shu Die was suddenly startled, "Is there no other me there?"

"Yes, there is, but it should be someone from your enemy's side." Zhuang Xiao hesitated for a moment before speaking out, "She's already dead there."

Shu Die immediately glanced at An Lan, "Was she killed by this sister?" Zhuang Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Don't you think it was me?"

And he didn't say An Lan was there too.

"Hehe. The Xiao brother we know won't do anything to us, even if it's them."

Shu Die smiled and said, "But this is what Brother Xiao is like."

When Zhuang Xiao raised his eyes, he met An Lan's beautiful eyes that seemed to be smiling.

He was a little bit nervous and changed the subject directly, "So where are you going next?"

"I don't know either." Shu Die frowned in distress, "Maybe I've already been to the place where the other me exists, and I don't know where she will go."

Zhuang Xiao took out his spare cell phone and called Shu Die.

The call still went through, but still no one answered.

Putting away the phone, Zhuang Xiao asked, "Where do you think she will go?"

Shu Die shook her head.

But An Lan said, "Why don't you just ask your police friend about this matter?"

When Zhuang Xiao heard this, he thought to himself that it was true.

Dong Weirui is more reliable in this matter.

After hearing An Lan's words, Dong Weirui, who had been listening silently, spoke in a long voice through the headset, "It is possible that Xiaodie decided that it was not safe to stay in the safe house, so she took the risk and went out."

Zhuang Xiao was puzzled, "Unsafe? Did another Shudie come to visit?"

After a long while, Dong Weirui replied, "Not necessarily. Maybe the noise you made was too loud and alarmed her. She was hiding from you because she didn't know if you were going to hurt her or what."

Zhuang Xiao frowned and said nothing.

Dong Weirui added, "But this also shows two things. First, that Xiaodie is not a member of the Shudie Alliance. Second, she knows very little about the 'shadow world'.

"At least she is basically unaware of the possible dangers, but she is somewhat on guard."

"Oh, I understand." Zhuang Xiao thought thoughtfully.

Seeing this, Shu Die was about to ask, but was stopped by An Lan with a look.

After two minutes, Zhuang Xiao suddenly raised his head.

An Lan smiled lightly, "Have you guessed where she is?"

Zhuang Xiao nodded, "I think I understand."

Shu Die hurriedly asked, "Brother Xiao, where is the other me?"

"Actually, you know that place." Zhuang Xiao replied.

Shu Die's eyes were blank, "I know that too?"

"There is a place that may be a safe house, but generally people don't pay too much attention to it. And you may feel that places like school and home are not safe after you sense danger. Then let me ask you, if it were you, where would you hide as your first reaction at this time?" Zhuang Xiao was guiding her.

"My words," Shu Die scratched her face, "maybe I won't believe others, but Xiao Ge said otherwise. I should hide in a place that only you and I know about."

Then she suddenly opened her starry eyes, "The strawberry house in Peony Park?!"

Zhuang Xiao snapped his fingers, "Yes, that's it."
