My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 314 Speculations about Shu Die

"Fuck! Brother Zhuang! This is too scary! Has she been possessed by another spirit?!"

Dong Zeyu's exclamations in the headset began to tremble.

Zhuang Xiao blinked his eyes, a little confused, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you say you could help me escape from here? Are you planning to betray me?"

"Brother Xiao, stop pretending. There are no adult cadavers in this cloning center. It's really not easy to get you to take the bait." Shu Die looked at him with a smile.

The ignorant look on Zhuang Xiao's face disappeared, replaced by calmness and indifference. "So, you are the 'boss'?"

"They all call me that, and I've never admitted it." Shu Die smiled, with a kind smile that showed the kindness of an elder looking at a young person. "If you ask me, I prefer to call myself Zero."

Zhuang Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Like the number seven you mentioned? Could this number be the order in which you came to the 'Shadow World'?"

"That's it."

Shu Die smiled lightly, "Brother Xiao, what year were you outside?"

"Brother Zhuang! She is trying to trick you!" Dong Zeyu reminded in the headset.

Zhuang Xiao calmly asked back, "That depends on which timeline you are talking about."

He wanted to get more information.

"Sure enough."

"What do you mean?"

Shu Die smiled lightly, "When Sister Yue and Sister Lan decided to use your preserved blood to reverse-engineer the time machine, Sister Yue said that this kind of research and development might cause unpredictable changes in your past self.

"I have met Sister Lan, but unfortunately she doesn't dare to come to see me. However, she seems to be close to success, but Brother Xiao, you don't seem to want to follow her plan."

Zhuang Xiao also laughed, "What did she consider a success? Making me survive December 2024, 12 is a success, right? But she died. She died, but she had to leave me a diary to mess with my mentality. What kind of success do you think this is?"

"The dead Bai Yueguang is the best Bai Yueguang. She is too greedy."

Shu Die's eyes flickered, "Brother Xiao, your death has made us miss you for the rest of our lives, so she naturally wants you to miss her for the rest of your life, too."

Zhuang Xiao was helpless, "Isn't this torture? Am I just going to sit there and watch?"

"Of course she knows, so I said she is too greedy." Shu Die said lightly: "She wants you to remember her forever, but she doesn't intend to really die."

Zhuang Xiao was startled. "You seem to be a bit resentful towards her? Didn't you invest in her time machine research and development?"

He remembered that according to the information he had found and the clues he got from An Lan, the time machine should have been something they had worked together to build.

Shu Die smiled, "Brother Xiao, if you spent hundreds of billions to develop a drug to reverse aging, and then the results came out, would you let others use it?"

Zhuang Xiao was stunned. "Shouldn't we do an experiment first to verify whether it works?"

"But if you are about to die of old age, and there is only one pill, then the pharmacist you invested in will take the pill himself." Shu Die still smiled gently, "Besides, she is not a pharmacist, at most she is just a pharmacist's assistant."

Zhuang Xiao suddenly felt a pang of pain in his teeth. "You mean you invested in the research and development of the time machine, and Gu Shiyue was the one who led the development, but in the end, An Lan took the benefit?"

"Isn't it very frustrating?" Shu Die tilted her head.

Zhuang Xiao nodded, "Indeed, if it were me, I would have to break up with her too, so she's not dead?"

"That involves another secret, a secret that I only discovered after I came to the 'Shadow World'."

Shu Die's starry eyes reflected the shadow of the young man, and then she lowered her eyes slightly, "But she did a good thing with bad intentions. At least you, Xiao Ge, really survived. It's just that you look very tired."

"Of course I'm tired." Zhuang Xiao further probed, "I was already in a difficult situation. First she caused trouble for me, and after I finally solved the problem, she played a trick on me.

"That's fine, I was just planning on living my life, and now you're causing trouble for me again.

"By the way, what is your purpose? To occupy Xiaodie's place in the real world?"

"So you've already investigated this far." Shu Die smiled, "It seems that Sister Lan was afraid that I would ruin her plan, so she gave you the clue to divert my attention.

"She knew I wouldn't really do anything to you and her attention would definitely be drawn to you, so she used you as bait. She was really mean-spirited.

"Do you really think that I will retaliate against her because she ruined my business? If it's something else, it's fine, but when it comes to you, Brother Xiao, I won't stop her."

Time was running out, and Zhuang Xiao didn't have time to continue arguing with her.

The smile on his face gradually disappeared, "So, why did you kill Xiaodie?"

"If not, would you come?" Shu Die asked with a smile.

Zhuang Xiao's face turned cold, "You have changed a lot."

"It's hard for people not to change in more than 50 years." Shu Die raised her hand and pointed at her ears. "Next time you come, don't wear these things."

As she finished speaking, Zhuang Xiao’s eyes went dark.

When he came to his senses, he found himself lying on a soft big bed and the sky was bright outside the window.

Zhuang Xiao immediately turned over and sat up.

He grabbed the Huazi trifold beside him and took a look at it.

2025年4月1日，早上7点32分。

He went back in time again!

Zhuang Xiao immediately stood up, took his mobile phone and ran to the study, turned on the computer and created a new blank document.

Then he directly pulled out a timeline table, and then filled in all the things that happened during each previous time travel according to the timeline.

This way the comparison becomes clear at a glance.

After working for more than twenty minutes, he got everything done and started analyzing.

[The time of each time backtracking is different, this time should be earlier. 】

[So it was the death of the 'boss' that caused me to go back in time, so it can be confirmed that it was her who gave the order.]

[According to Pu Su Shu Die, the 'big boss' is an old Shu Die, and the last conversation also proves this point. She is the Shu Die of An Lan's timeline, or the Shu Die of the original timeline.]

[She arrived at the 'shadow world' after An Lan took the time machine back to 1940 and opened up a new timeline, so it was the time machine that caused that timeline to break? This is uncertain.]

[She calls herself No. 0 and Pu Su Shudie No. 7. It seems that she has assigned a number to all Shudies who enter the "shadow world". It is also possible that she has assigned a number to all the Shudies in the Shudie Alliance. The numbers should be based on the order in which they enter the "shadow world". In addition, Pu Su Shudie said that there are less than 100 people in the Shudie Alliance. So the number of Shudies in the "shadow world" is probably not as large as imagined.]

[She actually doesn't care about the cloning center, which can be seen from her reaction. So what is the value of the cloning center? Is it really for her to use to replace failing organs? Not really, it's more like bait.]

Zhuang Xiao thought for a moment and decided to solve this problem first.

So he picked up the phone next to him and called his mother. After a few rings, the call was connected.

"How about a bowl of spicy soup, son?"

I guess I'm having breakfast.
Zhuang Xiao sighed. This was not bad. At least his parents didn’t have to worry about his troubles.

"It's nothing. I just want to donate blood. I just want to ask if it's panda blood."

"Panda blood? Have you read too many romance novels, son?" Mom laughed, "You have AB blood type, which is pretty common, not panda blood."

"Okay, I get it. Mom, you eat first." "Have you eaten yet?"

"I'll eat it now."

"Okay, just remember to eat, don't let your stomach get hungry."

"I know, mom. Go ahead and do your thing."

After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Xiao went to make a cup of tea, then returned to the computer to continue typing.

[I don’t have panda blood, and there’s nothing special about me, so Pu Su Shu Die’s guess is all false. Old Shu Die doesn’t need to replace her internal organs, which confirms my guess. If she really needed to replace her failing organs, she wouldn’t go back to these few days every time, which shows that she chose to die calmly.]

"So, the cloning center is really for fishing? Whose fish are they fishing for? Are they fishing for me?"

Zhuang Xiao picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and continued his analysis.

[She doesn't have a good relationship with An Lan. An Lan actually stole her work, which is the time machine. But she doesn't come to interfere with An Lan. In addition to being worried that An Lan's plan will fail and I will still die on December 2024, 12, there may be other reasons. ]

[For example, there are other more important things that distract her attention, at least she thinks they are more important. ]

[This incident must be related to the 'shadow world'. ]

[She wanted to tell me this, but she didn’t want anyone else to know, so she asked me not to wear the headset.]

[This means that she has analyzed that I can go back in time. ]

[According to her, the reason why I can go back in time is because of the time machine. They used my blood to activate the time machine. Because of time and space and other reasons, I have similar abilities? ]

[Indeed, this also explains why I can't actively activate this ability, because it was originally only somewhat related to me. ]

[Then why doesn't she want other people to know about this? She should know who are the people close to me. ]

[So she thinks there is something wrong with one of Dong Zeyu, Dong Weirui, and Gu Shiyue? ]

[Is it to sow discord? ]

[It's unlikely. She went to such great lengths just to sow discord? It seems unnecessary.]

[And compared to her, I obviously trust the Grand Master and his men more. There is no point in trying to sow discord between them.]

[So this secret may subvert their worldview, so they can't let more people know? ]

[Because it is obvious that even the other people in the Shudie Alliance do not know this secret. ]

[And what about the last one? Why could she directly invade Pu Su Shudie's body? ]

【Mind control?】

[Or is it that Pu Su Shu Die is her original body, and which Pu Su Shu Die is the newly cultivated 'second mind'? ]

[This makes a lot of sense, why Pu Su Shudie could lead me into the inner city, why was Xiao Shu the only one at the city gate, why Pu Su Shudie had the secret passage and the "pass" to the cloning center even though she was removed from the list, why there was no one at the cloning center, so we could easily enter, and why Pu Su Shudie was easily removed from the list and driven out of the city even though she occupied such an important position.]

[No, but that doesn't make sense. So the truth behind the Shudie Alliance is that she can control the minds of other Shudies? Is that scientific? I feel like there's a secret there.]

After reaching this point in the analysis, Zhuang Xiao's thumb unconsciously rubbed the space bar of the capacitive keyboard.

He thought of something.

When Shu Die died in the real world, he remembered that there were three Shu Dies there.

According to their communication, Xiaodie in the real world seemed to be seeking death on her own initiative.

Why did she actively seek death?

Her death is the beginning of the "storyline".

The death of the elderly Shu Die marks the end of the "story line".

This means that her death was planned by the elderly Shu Die, and the elderly Shu Die was the mastermind.

Zhuang Xiao thought of Pu Su Shu Die's appearance again.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and Zhuang Xiao couldn't help but twitched his mouth, "No way"

What if all Shudie are actually just one person?
After all, Zhuang Xiao had received hints from An Lan.

【What if they are all the real Shudie? 】

At that time, he thought it had another meaning, so he felt a great psychological burden.

But now think about it, this might be the hint given by An Lan.

She might know something.

"But is this possible? This isn't The Matrix."

Zhuang Xiao did not hesitate and went straight to An Lan's house to get the timeline detector, and then went to the valley halfway up the mountain.

This time he contacted Secretary Zhang to bring people over and did not move the equipment away. Instead, he started pulling wires to install power supplies and high-power transformers in the valley halfway up the mountain.

Only after Secretary Zhang and the others finished their work and left did Zhuang Xiao check the time.

It's 8:08 am.

At this point in time, Shu Die in the real world is not dead yet, but she has probably entered the "shadow world".

Zhuang Xiao installed the timeline detector in the groove on the back of the machine, and then modified the coordinate system to the "shadow world" of the elderly Shu Die.

After hesitating for a moment, he started the machine.

Looking at the blue and white arcs on the "passage gate" that began to rotate in front of him, Zhuang Xiao took a deep breath and then walked in resolutely.

This time he came out not from the abandoned warehouse in the suburbs, but from the same villa.

"Sure enough, you will end up where you came from."

So the question is, Shu Die in the real world is clearly in the capital, why did she appear in Luoyang after entering the "shadow world"?
And at present, the "shadow world" seems to only include the Luoyang area.

Forget it, let’s find the elderly Shu Die first.

Zhuang Xiao carefully explored the villa.

The villa is decorated very elegantly, but the furnishings inside look a bit old, as if no one has lived there for a long time.

And there was no one.

Only then did Zhuang Xiao feel relieved.

After roughly sweeping the entire villa, Zhuang Xiao returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa.

He was thinking about something.

Where to find elderly Shudie?
