Projection screen in Xia Kingdom's night sky.

It was originally the No. 1 screen that audiences across the country watched well.

But when Jiang Zhe and Peter in Screen No. 1 opened the second door, the screen went off.

From screens 1 to 6, not only screen 1 disappeared, but also screens 3456. In the end, only screen 2 remained.

"what's the situation?"

"Weren't we always watching screen No. 1? Why did the screen go black after Jiang Zhe opened the second door?"

"Why did our perspective switch to screen No. 2? Can someone from Dio tell me?"

"..."

In the same situation as them, there is Adam from Beautiful Country.

Because Adam's choice was exactly the same as Jiang Zhe's, they both opened what they thought was the front door.

Among the expert groups of beautiful countries, there are more physics experts here.

When they saw that only Screen No. 2 was left in the night sky of Beautiful Country, the physics expert immediately gave the answer.

A middle-aged physicist in a white coat explained: "Our previous perspective was screen No. 1. When Adam opened the second door, the screen of Adam on screen No. 1 went black, leaving only screen No. 2 that we are looking at now."

"This also means that from the perspective of our onlookers, the screen is always the right choice."

"I just went to Xia Guo's place to take a look, and Jiang Zhe's screen No. 1 is also dead."

"Because Adam and Jiang Zhe made the same choice, they both opened what they thought was the front door. In fact, they both opened the wrong door."

"Jiang Zhe and Peter used spider silk swords to get behind the masked man and kill them. Our Adam also accidentally got behind him and killed the masked man. As a result, we and Xia Guo are at the same progress."

"Those disappearing screens actually mean exactly that - their initial choice was wrong."

As the words fell, the other experts nodded in confusion, a little confused.

Some experts curiously asked: "You mean - the world in the disappearing black screen is actually the world where the Chosen One chose the wrong direction, and the world on screen No. 2 is the world where the Chosen One chose the right direction?"

The physics expert nodded: "That's true."

As soon as this was said, all experts understood.

...

Xia Guo's expert team.

They also came to the same conclusion.

The world of Jiang Zhe and Peter on screen No. 1 is no longer related to what they are currently watching.

The leader looked regretful and said: "What a pity. Jiang Zhe and Peter went around behind the masked man before and chose to kill the masked man. As a result, they mistakenly mistook the back door for the front door. And what we are looking at now on screen 2 Jiang Zhe and Pete are the right ones."

Not only the leader said this, but even Jiang Zhe on screen 2 also sighed.

Looking at the fat old man in a suit in front of him, Jiang Zhe turned his head and looked at Pete gratefully: "If you hadn't reminded me just now, Pete, we almost chose the wrong direction."

Seeing your middle-aged and elderly self in the future is the right direction to choose.

Peter asked inexplicably: "What, I didn't understand?"

"You don't need to understand." Jiang Zhe smiled slightly, "The top priority is the future fat man in front of us."

Yes, when they opened the door for the first time, just when Jiang Zhe was about to mistake the back door for the front door, Peter asked: "Are we sure we want to go through the back door in front of us?"

It was this sentence that awakened Jiang Zhe who started from the starting point, thus creating the current No. 2 screen and becoming the main world.

In the center of the room, stood a middle-aged and elderly man with his arms crossed.

The other person had short short hair, a muscular body, and only a slight glow in his eyes. He was staring at Jiang Zhe and Peter who had just come in.

The other party didn't speak. Jiang Zhe took the lead and took a step forward to question: "Hello, are you sure you want to kill me? In order to satisfy Rule 11, when you are about to finish the level, please go back in time and kill you who just entered the cube." Return to reality. If you meet your future self when you first come to the cube, please open your arms and welcome death. Is this the case?"

Before the middle-aged and elderly people could speak, Jiang Zhe asked again in a deep voice:

"Are you sure you want me to open my arms and accept death for you?"

"If I cleared the level in just a few days, why would you still live here for decades more?"

"Your current existence means that you met your future old self 30 years ago at my age. And you were not killed by the future self you met."

"Are you sure the purpose of this hypercube is to get you out alive?"

As the words fell, Peter on the side was confused, but he quickly summed it up.

If your future self kills your present self, wouldn't you be killed by your future self in the past?

This is obviously a paradox.

The answer is obvious: the middle-aged and elderly Jiang Zhe in front of him came to help his past self.

After hearing his younger self's reasoning, the middle-aged and old man in white suit Jiang Zhe grinned: "You are very smart. You are right. If I killed you, I would not be who I am now, so the meaning of my existence is to help you." .”

As the conversation changed, the middle-aged and elderly Jiang Zhe asked coldly: "But have you ever thought about a question?"

Jiang Zhe asked: "Which question?"

The middle-aged and elderly Jiang Zhe replied: "I am 54 years old this year. I met my future self wearing a white suit 30 years ago when I was 24 at your age. The other person did not choose to kill me after being persuaded by my words. , but chose to help me. Since the other party helped me, why have I still lived here for 30 years and reached the age of 54? Have you considered this issue? "

As the words fell, the entire audience looked confused.

“Who am I, where am I, what am I listening to?”

"Fuck, I can't understand it. Is this a paradox?"

"Ahhh, the time paradox is so mind-numbing!"

"..."

The audience couldn't understand it at the moment, but the expert panel understood it completely.

The physicist explained again excitedly: "Hahahahaha."

The female expert on the side asked inexplicably: "Why are you laughing?"

The physicist swallowed: "Time paradox, do you remember - if the current Jiang Zhe is killed by the future old Jiang Zhe in a white suit, then the future old Jiang Zhe in a white suit will not exist."

"Since the future old Jiang Zhe no longer exists, then there is no such thing as the meeting between young Jiang Zhe and old Jiang Zhe in screen No. 2 that we saw."

"Since they met, it means Jiang Zhe has lived inside for 30 years."

"Since he has lived safe and sound for 30 years, Jiang Zhe has not left the tesseract within these 30 years."

"In the end, it means that both young Jiang Zhe and old Jiang Zhe have failed!"

"So, does everyone understand?"

As the words fell, the experts looked confused.

Although Jiang Zhe is still alive, the future has not yet come out!

Not dead, not out, Xia Guo has been safe like this for 30 years?

No matter how you calculate it, it's a big loss. 30 years is far less important than Jiang Zhe's life.

But how can we escape from this time paradox?

An old expert asked: "Then how can they break the situation and cooperate? But Lao Jiangzhe and the future Lao Jiangzhe he met had cooperated 30 years ago. In the end, they must have failed, so we have what we have. I saw old Jiang Zhe in a white suit!"

Hearing this, the physicist shook his head: "The person in the world who can solve the time paradox will definitely not be in our real world. He must be Jiang Zhe in the hypercube!"

...

within the screen.

Jiang Zhe was confused after hearing what Old Jiang Zhe said.

Time paradox is an extremely brain-burning problem.

He had also been confused by this many times during his previous playthroughs.

Facing Lao Jiang Zhe, Jiang Zhe asked: "So, you helped me, but you can't leave the cube?"

Lao Jiangzhe nodded: "You can think so, because my future Lao Jiang also helped me, but I did not escape the cube and he disappeared."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhe asked softly: "So... the way you help me now is to kill me?"

Old Jiang Zhe shook his head slightly, then smiled calmly, "Do you want to know how I can help you?"

Seeing this, Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "Are you ready?"

As the words fell, the two of them spoke in unison.

"Let the future of this timeline no longer be certain!" x2

"The last sentence: Your arrival this time is the penultimate one, do you understand?"

"I see."

Then a gunshot rang out.

"Bang!"

Someone between Xiao Jiang and Lao Jiang ended his life.
