My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 309 Where is this for me? (Together)
Zhuang Xiao's heart was in turmoil, but he remained calm on the surface, and even his breathing didn't get much louder.

After a moment of silence, he took out a miniature eavesdropping device from his pocket and stuck it at the entrance, then quietly hid behind the weeds and disappeared.

The next moment, he heard Shu Die's exclamation from the headset:

"The body is gone!"

Then another cold Shudie voice came, "It seems that it is true. As long as the conditions are right, we can leave the 'shadow world' and return to the real world."

"Then go back and continue to follow the plan!"

"Well, let's go."

Then footsteps were heard, and a moment later, two slender voices came up from the basement.

But in the next moment, Zhuang Xiao, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly jumped up and approached quickly!
He knocked down the two Shudies from behind in an instant when they were completely unprepared.

Seeing the two men falling face down, Zhuang Xiao had no expression on his face, but his hands were trembling slightly.

He stood there quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, he let out a breath, then walked forward, bent down and searched the two people's bodies.

All the tubes of blood were obtained, but the two men only had one laser pistol in total.

The two Shudies hummed softly, as if they were about to wake up.

Zhuang Xiao did not hesitate. He immediately took out a handkerchief and filled it with the ether prepared in advance. He then covered the mouths and noses of the two women respectively. After making sure that they were completely unconscious, he immediately rode his electric scooter to open the "channel" and return to the real world.

As soon as he came back, he found that Gu Shiyue had actually arrived and was fiddling with her things.

Seeing Zhuang Xiao coming back, she spread her hands and said, "Give it to me."

Zhuang Xiao was stunned for a moment, "What do you want?"

"Blood." Gu Shiyue said as a matter of course, "I have read the information you sent. Aren't you going to analyze the coordinates? You got the blood, right?"

“Indeed I have.”

Zhuang Xiao took out the tubes of blood and handed them to her. "But I don't know which one it is, but there should be two tubes of blood with the same coordinate system among the four tubes. That one is the base camp of the Shudie Alliance."

Gu Shiyue took a few tubes of blood and put them on the instrument to start the matching test.

Zhuang Xiao looked around but didn't see Dong Weirui. "Weirui is outside watching Xiaodie?"

"Correct."

Gu Shiyue was concentrating on the task at hand, and it was Dong Zeyu who answered him.

"I couldn't get anything out of her. My sister was afraid that we might know something about the Shudie Alliance, so she didn't dare to ask too much. But she did get a tube of her blood."

"Yes." Zhuang Xiao nodded. "She is not important. What is important now is to analyze the corresponding coordinates."

"It will be done soon." Gu Shiyue gave a time, "Ten minutes at most. Change into the things you brought."

"it is good."

Zhuang Xiao immediately took out his equipment, and then put on the equipment with the help of Dong Zeyu.

"You said the robot dog's controls weren't smooth before, so I brought the new helmet."

Gu Shiyue saw that the analysis progress bar on the computer was still moving, so she came over to help Zhuang Xiao put on the device.

She pulled out eight pieces of iron with wires from the helmet and stuck them on Zhuang Xiao's head and cervical spine, then helped him put on the helmet. "This thing is controlled by brain waves, and can perfectly control four robot dogs. It's just that there's no time to modify the weapons privately, so this is a bit troublesome."

Then Gu Shiyue pointed to another set of equipment in the box and said, "That's a mechanical exoskeleton. It can greatly improve your athletic ability. Put it on, too."

After helping Zhuang Xiao put on all the clothes, Gu Shiyue said, "Take advantage of this time to try out the control of these equipment in the warehouse first, so that you don't have to adapt to them on the spot when the time comes."

"Okay." Zhuang Xiao tried to jump on the spot, and suddenly his feet were 1.5 meters off the ground.

"Wow! That's awesome, Brother Zhuang!" Dong Zeyu gave a thumbs up. "Even the top jumpers in the NBA can't run up and jump so hard!"

“It’s all talent and hard work.”

Zhuang Xiao grinned, "My knees and calves hurt a little. This thing doesn't provide much cushioning."

"It's just a trial product. The follow-up has not been developed yet." Gu Shiyue said: "Your physical fitness is not bad, you can use it barely, but you can't use it for a long time, you have to remember this."

"I understand."

After a few minutes, watching the progress bar finish, Gu Shiyue said: "The results are out.

"2077.12.31.07.32."

Zhuang Xiao was startled, then nodded, "I'll remember it."

This number is so easy to remember that you only need to remember the first year.

"2077 Cyberpunk." Dong Zeyu sighed, then turned around and asked, "Brother Zhuang, are you planning to go there directly?"

"Wait a minute, I have a guess that I want to confirm, so I'm going to go to the 'shadow world' first."

Dong Zeyu was puzzled, "Confirm what?"

"It's nothing, maybe just my guess." Zhuang Xiao said, and was about to turn around and enter the portal again with the four robot dogs.

But Dong Zeyu suddenly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute."

Zhuang Xiao stopped, but he was wearing a helmet, so Dong Zeyu couldn't see his expression.

He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Brother Zhuang, can you go back in time?"

"We have to go back at least once. After all, I didn't save Xiaodie." Zhuang Xiao raised his hand and pointed outside the warehouse. "Xiaodie's body has appeared in the basement."

Dong Zeyu nodded, "How did you know?"

"Because I was there." Zhuang Xiao didn't say anything more. "What's the matter?"

"Since you can go back in time, I won't say anything." Dong Zeyu suddenly took out a Type 92 pistol from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand, along with three fully loaded magazines.

Zhuang Xiao looked up in astonishment, "You actually brought it out?"

"Well, don't worry about how I got it out." Dong Zeyu patted him on the shoulder, "A total of 60 bullets, all here. Anyway, if you, Zhuang, don't have time to trace back, I'm doomed!"

Zhuang Xiao smiled, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to you."

He put away his pistol and magazine, then patted Dong Zeyu on the shoulder, turned back and nodded to Gu Shiyue, then entered the portal again.

With Dong Zeyu's unreserved trust, he would definitely not let anything happen to the other party.

Appearing again in the warehouse under the bloody sky, Zhuang Xiao quickly turned on the thermal imaging mode. At the same time, four different perspectives appeared in front of him except his own.

It is obvious that Gu Shiyue has synchronized the "vision" of the four robot dogs on the front visor of his helmet.

"There are two men in the weeds outside."

Hearing the voice in the headset, Zhuang Xiao nodded slowly, "Yes, I defeated them before."

As he said this, he brought four robot dogs to the front of Shu Die, who was lying face down on the ground after being knocked unconscious by ether.

"This is the murderer who killed Xiaodie, right? Brother Zhuang, how do you plan to deal with it?" Dong Zeyu asked in the headset.

Zhuang Xiao was silent for a moment, then took out a Type 92 pistol, turned on the safety, loaded the pistol and took a look at the bullet inside.

Then he raised his gun and pointed it at the back of the head of one of Shudie.

"Wait! Brother Zhuang! What are you doing?!" Ignoring Dong Zeyu's exclamation, Zhuang Xiao resolutely pulled the trigger.

boom!
Accompanied by a gunshot, Shu Die's heart, which was beating slowly on the thermal image, soon stopped beating.

And Zhuang Xiao pointed his gun at the other Shu Die.

Then, shoot.

As two lives belonging to Shu Die were ended by Zhuang Xiao himself, nothing happened around.

Zhuang Xiao's hand holding the gun dropped slightly, and his expression could not be seen because he was wearing a helmet.

But his slightly trembling hands showed that his heart was not as calm as he seemed on the surface.

Although he had seen many corpses of Shu Die, and even witnessed Shu Die die in front of him.

But no matter which Shu Die it was, this was the first time he killed her with his own hands.

Especially now that he knows that Shu Die did everything in a "real" situation.

Although he had prepared himself mentally, at this moment even he himself didn't know what he felt.

There was silence in the earphones for a long time, and the Dong brothers and sisters and Gu Shiyue didn't dare to make a sound.

After a while, Dong Weirui spoke first with a serious and calm voice, "Are you okay?"

Then Dong Zeyu's cautious voice sounded, "Yes, Brother Zhuang, are you okay now?"

"I'm fine." There was no emotion in Zhuang Xiao's voice or tone. "Or rather, my mind is clearer than ever before."

"Then why are you."

"To confirm."

Zhuang Xiao said: "They were the ones who killed Xiaodie in the real world, but I killed them now but time did not go back immediately. You all know the conditions for me to trigger time reversal."

"Yes." Dong Zeyu continued, "When a 'story line' begins, the person who is the end of the 'story line' dies, and then you will go back in time to before the 'story line' began."

"Yes, I heard them kill Xiaodie with my own ears, but the communication between them made me feel that there was something else going on. At least Xiaodie went to die voluntarily, and they seemed to have some plan."

Zhuang Xiao sighed, "So I began to wonder if they were not the end of the 'story line' at all, and the end point was someone else."

Dong Zeyu suddenly realized, "So the test you mentioned is to test this?"

And Gu Shiyue suddenly asked, "Have you met him before?"

Zhuang Xiao was stunned and realized what she meant was "Have you encountered a similar situation before?"

So he nodded and admitted, "Yes, it has happened before. The trouble was to find who this 'end point' was. The only way to do this was to try again and again and then use the process of elimination."

In fact, the main reason is that the time of his previous time travel back was different.

Although close, it is definitely different.

And a few times there was even a day between them.

Zhuang Xiao had always thought that it was because Shu Die in the real world died at the hands of different people, and the time of death of those murderers was different, which led to different times when he went back in time.

But after coming to this bloody "shadow world", he found that this was not the case.

If he had not appeared, the death time of the two Shu Dies would have been fixed, which means they would have died at the hands of An Lan.

And every time time goes back, the place and time where the space where time stops appears are "fixed".

In other words, every time they would die in that convenience store at a fixed time and place.

And so many times, the charred corpse appeared in the basement of the warehouse every morning.

In other words, even in the real world, Shu Die's time of death was almost fixed, or at least she was killed by a fixed murderer.

So, since Shu Die's death is fixed to start the "story line", the murderer who is the "end point" is also fixed, and she will also die at a fixed time, why is the time when Zhuang Xiao goes back in time different?
If we eliminate all the impossibilities, there is only one answer left.

That "end point" was not the two Shudie who did it themselves, but another Shudie who directed them behind the scenes.

So could it be the dead Shu Die from the real world?
That's impossible. If it was her who ordered it, Zhuang Xiao would have gone back in time immediately after her death.

The deaths of the two Shudies happened to coincide with his time travel, which is why he was misled.

But even though he had speculated to this point, Zhuang Xiao still wanted to verify whether his guess was correct.

Because every time he goes back in time is precious, he can't waste any of them.

Every time he goes back in time, he must at least get one step closer to the truth.

Fortunately, it has now been confirmed that his guess was indeed correct.

So the next step is to go to the final "shadow world".

Taking a deep breath, Zhuang Xiao looked down at the two bodies of Shu Die who died in his hands, and suddenly smiled.

"You said at the beginning that if I needed to go back in time, you could let me kill you. I didn't expect that your words would come true."

Zhuang Xiao shook his head, no longer reluctant to linger, turned around and went back to the warehouse and returned to the real world.

In the warehouse in the real world, as soon as he came out of the portal, he saw Dong Zeyu looking at him carefully, "Brother Zhuang, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Zhuang Xiao raised his wrist to check the time. It was now 12:31 noon.

"It will take at most three and a half hours to go back in time, so I have to hurry."

Zhuang Xiao took a bottle of mineral water and stayed for a while, then immediately went behind the portal and adjusted the time on the timeline detector to [2077.12.31.07.32].

As the portal opened again, Zhuang Xiao resolutely stepped in with the four robot dogs.
-
The light in this warehouse is very dim, but it is much brighter than the "shadow world" where the zombie Shu Die existed.

It's just that the light source seems to come from outside, and very far away.

Zhuang Xiaoxian looked around, but there was nothing in the warehouse, but the floor was incredibly clean.

Zhuang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

This suggests two possibilities.

Either that or dust is almost non-existent in this "shadow world".

Or someone cleans this place regularly.

If it was the former, Zhuang Xiao would have to worry whether Luoyang in 2077 was still suitable for a "fifty-year-old guy" like him to survive.

If it is the latter, it would be even more troublesome. It means that the scope of activities of the Shudie Alliance is too broad and his actions will be more restricted.

But soon Gu Shiyue's voice came from the headset, "There is no sign of life."

Zhuang Xiao confirmed it again through the perspectives of the four robot dogs before carefully leading them out of the warehouse.

There was nothing outside the warehouse either, and it was surrounded by weeds, just like before.

Zhuang Xiao looked in the direction of the light source beside him.

The next moment, he stood there in a daze.

In the distant city, I saw skyscrapers hundreds of meters high lined up one after another, and the neon lights even illuminated half the sky. It was like the Tang Dynasty City that never sleeps, and even more like a high-tech city in cyberpunk.

"Where the hell are you? Is this still Luoyang?"
