"Arrest immediately!" Lin Li descended slowly, and when the distance got closer, the captain ordered.
"bump!"
One of the team members shot out a gradually growing net. Under everyone's watchful eyes, the net successfully wrapped Lin Li inside.
Lin Li fell to the ground, and the sticky balls around the net clung to the ground. Even if Lin Li flapped his wings vigorously, he could not break free.
"God can tell you, I am really a good person." Lin Li did not use the steel rod, but lay on his side on the ground, supporting his cheek with one hand, and responded helplessly, "Do you have any props that can verify my identity? ?”
"The human heart is the most unpredictable. If you are really a good person, then I can only say sorry to you, Yu Nian." The captain shook his head, took out a syringe from his waist, squeezed out a little liquid to expel the air in the syringe. Finally, he walked towards Lin Li.
"If an apology is useful, then why do we need the police?" Lin Li put away his leisurely posture and sat up in the net.
The patrol leader said nothing and continued to approach step by step.
Lin Li closed his eyes, and when the distance between the two shortened to the extent he wanted, his figure disappeared from the net.
"Where are the people?" The captain stared in disbelief, looking ahead: "Did he just use any props?"
"Team...Captain, Yu Nian is behind you!" A team member saw Lin Li, and he stuttered a reminder.
Captain Tong Kong shrank and turned his head, only to find that Lin Li had already pulled out the net gun from his waist, and also took away the space jump pen that everyone in the team was equipped with.
The captain immediately thrust the needle in his hand towards Lin Li, but was blocked by a powerful and elongated steel rod. When the steel rod between the two men was removed, what appeared in front of the captain was the black muzzle of the gun.
"bump!"
At such a close distance, the captain had no way to escape, and was directly caught in the net and trapped on the ground.
"He wants to run! Don't let him run away!" The captain immediately saw Lin Li's intention and reminded the others loudly.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Everyone was holding net guns at this time, and in an instant, multiple nets flew towards Lin Li.
Lin Li didn't bother to dodge this time. After being trapped in the net, he picked up the space jumping pen and drew a big circle on the ground. When the circle formed a closed loop, the tunnel opened and Lin Li jumped in.
"Chase them all!"
The wall outside Nobi's house.
A tunnel ring suddenly appeared above, and then Lin Li jumped out of it.
Just as he was about to erase the tunnel with the eraser behind the space jump pen, the upper body of a team member had already emerged from it.
"I'll wipe it, so fast?"
After Lin Li complained, he stopped wiping his handwriting.
After all, it is impossible to guess whether this player's body will be cut into two pieces after being closed like this.
Judging from today's interactions, Lin Li believes that the Space-Time Patrol is a lawful camp. Secondly, judging from the fact that they switched from lethal weapons to net guns when dealing with him, Lin Li does not think he should kill them. .
After throwing the pen into the space behind the avatar, Lin Li climbed over the wall and jumped into Nobita's house. He reached the limit of the distance that the avatar could retract, turned into a prop, and disappeared from the eyes of the Space-Time Patrol members who followed him.
"Enemy attack!"
Hearing the sound, the team members looked up and saw Nobita Nobita pointing an air cannon at them.
"Hey, why are you from the Time and Space Patrol? Why are you here at my house now? Has the Demon King been caught?" Nobita asked after seeing clearly who was coming in the night, and put away the cannon.
"No, the situation is a bit complicated..." the team member said.
Another window on the roof was pushed open, and another child's head popped out: "Who is this? Why are there people dressed like this? Nobita, do you know them?"
"We are cosplayers. In the future of cosplay, police officers are Nobita's friends." The captain explained skillfully to a stranger.
"Loser?" Lin Li dug his ears, as if he didn't hear clearly.
But the English accent of the island country does have its own flavor.
"Coser!" the captain said anxiously.
"Okay, loser."
The child whose real identity was Lin Li nodded and disappeared from the window.
"..." The captain wanted to shoot at this window.
Lin Li left his room.
At the entrance of his room, he looked across the corridor, and then through the door of Nobita's room that was not closed, and saw Nobita by the window of the opposite room, the muzzle of the gun pointed at the downstairs, and Nobita with a vigilant face in the corner, taking out various items from his pocket. Doraemon with props.
However, most of these props have lost their luster and are generally unusable as Nobita said.
"Doraemon, the patrol seems to have new information to tell us. Let's go down there." Nobita turned his head and said to Doraemon.
"What could happen? Is there only one person? Be careful. Are you sure he is not the devil pretending to be the devil? You must be careful and careful again!" Doraemon's voice was nervous.
"Then you don't have to take out the "nuclear bomb that will destroy the world", right? "Nobita turned his head, with black lines running down his forehead.
"This prop has broken down a long time ago and is no longer usable. It's just to scare people." Doraemon smiled sheepishly.
"It's not just one person," Nobita turned to look out the window again: "The whole team is here, and the captain is also here. It's definitely not pretending."
"Then let them come up." Doraemon took out a handful of bamboo dragonflies, "Let's see what they want to say."
】
Lin Li raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then walked into Nobita's room.
"Nobita, are those cosplayers your friends?" Lin Li pointed at the members of the Space-Time Patrol outside the window and asked.
"Well, yes." Nobita nodded and said nothing else.
"Oh, I almost thought he was a bad guy. By the way, can I lend you a few comic books to read?" Lin Li suddenly asked, then asked.
"Of course! Borrow it as you like! But don't break it." Nobita generously showed off his comic cabinet and said.
"Astro Boy", "Dragon Ball", "Cat Eye Sisters", "Lupine the Third"...there are many types of ancient comics.
Lin Li took a fancy to the three sisters at a glance.
To actually put this kind of comic in the corner, Nobita is really ignorant.
As for "Lupine the Third", Lin Li felt it was really unsatisfactory. It was unspeakable that the male protagonist was salivating over a bus that only the male protagonist could not get on.
While pulling out the comics, Lin Li took out the learning machine from the space behind him, placed it inside, and then left.
…
That night.
The time was approaching midnight. After there was no more movement next door, Lin Li immediately returned to the next door. While returning the comics, he put the learning machine into the space behind him.
Lin Li then returned to his room and played the recording quietly.
"..."
"How's it going, captain, has the devil been captured successfully?" Nobita's voice.
"Not yet, but I found a strange guy." The captain responded.
Then he told Nobita and Doraemon all of Lin Li's actions and words truly, without concealing or modifying them.
"...So, do you know this person?" the captain asked.
"I don't know him at all. I don't even have any friends named my grandson." Nobita replied.
"I don't know either." Doraemon said.
"This person is very strange. He appears and disappears out of thin air." The captain sighed.
"His abilities are still a mystery. He claims to be the Demon King's opponent and a traveler from the future, but we can't be sure of this."
"He took away my space jumping pen and net gun. They both have our personal marks and signals for use. However, with the disappearance of others in the past year, the signals of these two props have also completely lost traces. Like It's like disappearing from this world.
There is reason to suspect that Yu Nian has a very thorough understanding of our equipment. "
Lin Li was shocked when he heard this. Is there so many twists and turns among the props?
Then at least when you use these props in this dungeon, you need to consider the consequences.
"Doraemon, please use the patrol TV. Although it can only find items, you can see if you can find this person by looking for my space jump pen." The captain added.
Lin Li was shocked when he heard this. He couldn't think of five hundred men with knives hiding outside his door and window, just waiting for a glass-throwing signal to cut him into pieces, right?
"Wait a minute, let me look for it..."
"Found it, Deng Deng Deng Deng! Patrol the TV." Doraemon said, "Inspect the TV. Please help me find the space jump pen of the patrol team leader."
"There's nothing. It's completely dark and you can't see anything. Is the machine broken, or is this the environment where Lin Li is hiding?" The captain's words were full of doubts.
Lin Li breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that as a result of the inspection, the TV only showed darkness.
After all, the avatar itself is a prop, and the space jump pen is still in the space behind the avatar, so the buff stack is full.
"I know!" Nobita suddenly became excited.
"What do you know?"
"That Yu Nian must be hiding in the ceiling. He must have used a shrinking light or something like that! That's why it's all black! Wait! Oops, if that's the case, isn't he eavesdropping on our conversation now? ?
Uncle Captain, hurry up, let’s tell you some wrong information to deceive Yu Nian! Haha, today’s dinner is delicious. "Nobita's joy turned into sorrow.
Lin Li didn't know how to evaluate Nobita's reasoning.
It was so wrong, but so wrong that it made him right a little bit.
"..." There was also a period of silence in the recording, as if Nobita was really considering his thoughts.
Lin Li couldn't tell whether they were speechless and silent, or whether they were communicating in ways other than words.
"Doraemon, you will continue to monitor when you have time later, and Nobita, you must be careful and careful, and you must protect yourself." After a brief silence, the captain spoke again.
"I can do it, uncle captain, don't you know what I am like?"
"It's just because I know who you are that I feel uneasy." The captain sighed deeply, "Doraemon, do you know?"
Nobita: "..."
"Understood! I will protect Nobita!"
"Okay, the message has been conveyed, let's go first."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Goodbye."
…
The conversation involving the Space-Time Patrol ended here, followed by a discussion between Nobita and Doraemon, but there was not much valuable content. When the topic started to talk about which Dorayaki restaurant had the best Dorayaki, Lin immediately Make sure there is no other information and store the learning machine into the space behind it again.
There was still some time before zero o'clock, so Lin Li began to analyze the information obtained today.
The Demon King's strength has indeed been weakened a lot, and the situation on today's 11th is much better than on the 13th in the future - at least he can maintain his original form and appearance now, regardless of the speed of movement. The attacks he launched were more powerful than those of No. 13.
Considering that his method of escaping with black mist would hurt his origin, this change should be normal.
This means that between the 11th and 12th, his body was weakened.
But Lin Li would always think about a question subconsciously.
There is a reason why the Demon King was weakened this time on the 11th, but what about the last 11th?
Who was the reason for the Demon King to be put into this state? Is there also a 'Lin Li' who has done this?
What kind of timeline am I in? Have I lost my memory or fallen into a loop?
——Lin Li felt a headache just thinking about these problems.
It's the same as the three fatal questions of "Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going?"
In addition to this, as for other information, the Space-Time Patrol Team should really be good for Nobita.
"Nobita's safety affects the safety of the world." Lin Li thought about the meaning of the patrol captain's words.
What the patrol cared about at this time was no longer even the history they wanted to maintain. The primary purpose became to protect Nobita.
"Nobita is just a human being. The most recent incident is his return from the "Magic World". Theoretically, he does not have any props or value that will destroy the world. "
"But judging from the completion of the dungeon mission, this sentence can be changed to say that the safety of Nobita's character affects the safety of the world."
“So it’s back to the old question, what is person.
…
If we explain personality in terms of status, Nobita's status is...the protagonist in cartoons. "
"The reason why Nobita's character is unique in this world is because he is the protagonist?"
Lin Li's frown froze, and then slowly began to relax. He tried to use a world view similar to "Fruit Attack" to sort out the internal logic of this copy.
"This world is not "Fruit Fruit". If there is no director, then the protagonist is irreplaceable, the only one... chosen by the world.
If there is no conscious way of heaven, then the world without the protagonist will also lose its soul.
So Nobita's safety is very important. His protagonist is the foundation of this world's existence? "
Lin Li remembered some details about the Space-Time Patrol in the movie version.
For example, in "Nobita's New Dinosaur", the Space Patrol did not stop Nobita from returning to the time when the dinosaurs were extinct and saving some of them.
But judging from their purpose, isn’t changing the past to this extent a serious change in history?
There are many such situations, such as Nobita tampering with the world into the world of Journey to the West, returning to the era of primitive people, saving and helping primitive people; in the Iron Man Corps, completely changing the history of the mechanical group...
In "Nobita's New Dinosaur", the Space Patrol explains this:
"What Nobita did is the real history."
He travels through the past and changes 'history', but the Space-Time Patrol will not stop them, because Nobita's act of changing history, in the scanning of their machines, is regarded as Nobita's modified history, which is the real history.
The more Lin Li thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.
Personality is probably just such a thing.
What it represents is Nobita's unique status in this universe. He is the most useless kid in Japan, but he is the most important being in this universe! ?
Of course, now we can only rank second.
"From this perspective, replacing or changing one's personality means that the Demon King is trying to be the protagonist? Stealing the show? Is it actually similar to Guobao?
No, that's not right. In the theater movie, the devil's purpose is to destroy the earth and destroy all human beings.
Maybe what he wants is simply to destroy the world and kill Nobita directly? The Demon King doesn’t seem to be doing this either…”
Lin Li's bright eyes dimmed again.
“The motivation actually…isn’t very important.
What's important is how mysterious things like personality are replaced or changed. I need to know this process in order to stop it.
The information available so far is that the Demon King has been trying to get close to Nobita and just kill Nobita? Whether there are other preparations, such as magic circles and rituals, I don't know anything. "
"I knew I would have used the magical conch to find something more nutritious... Damn it!" Lin Li complained decadently.
"To get this answer, I now have three directions to go, Doraemon's props, the Space-Time Patrol, and the Demon King himself."
"You can try these three directions in sequence tomorrow."
But another question extends from this - what day is tomorrow?
Thinking of this, Lin Li stood up and looked at the various neon lights outside the window.
Taking out Conan's watch, the time was already eleven fifty-eight at night.
Lin Li took out a pen and wrote down March 11th by the window and marked it.
Then he held a book in the room in his hand and quietly waited for the passage of time.
The neon lights suddenly change color, some turn on suddenly, some turn off suddenly, and the traffic and pedestrians on the road also change their positions - all of this happens in an instant.
The book in his hand disappeared. He turned around and appeared in the same position as before. Looking at his watch, the time changed to zero minutes and two seconds.
Looking down again, I saw that March 11th, which I had written down a few minutes ago, was gone.
"Is it discontinuous time...the mark has disappeared, the book has returned to its original place...is this a return to the past? March 10th? 9th?"
There was no calendar in his room, so Lin Li walked out of the house and pushed open Nobita's room.
"Huh-huh-"
"Ah - ah -"
Nobita was lying on the bed on the ground with his back stretched out. Although his sleeping posture was inelegant and his limbs were arranged disorderly, he was able to sleep soundly in this posture.
And fortunately, the wide quilt could still cover him tightly so that he would not catch a cold. Under the moonlight outside the window, Nobita was playing a symphony of snoring with Doraemon who was sleeping in the closet.
Perhaps it was the cold night, Lin Li shivered, and then looked at the calendar on the table.
Monday, March 13, 2007.
Lin Li frowned. He was back on Monday again?
Is this a cycle that jumps back and forth between Monday and Saturday?
etc.
Lin Li took a step forward and saw the contents of Nobita's desktop - there were several assignments scattered on it, but they were all written by Lin Li and were extra assignments assigned by Eiichiro Narei.
Lin Li looked around and saw that the scattered schoolbags and textbooks were all the same as they were that night.
"Oh——" Lin Li suddenly realized.
He stepped forward and tore off a page from the calendar.
The calendar needs to be torn.
Today is not Monday, but I haven’t had time to tear off the calendar yet—today is Tuesday, March 14, 2007.
That's it.
Lin Li nodded with satisfaction.
Then Lin Li laughed first and exited Nobita's room. After returning to his own room, he muttered:
"Why am I so satisfied? The time has suddenly changed from the 11th to the 14th. There is no change in the world at all, but I am even more confused, right?"
