He was as cold and arrogant as when they met in the elevator. He didn't say hello to anyone, and only glanced at the dishes on the table casually.
Yan pushed the steak plate aside. He looked at the carefully cut beef and poked it lazily twice.
Yan then ignored him and continued chatting with Qin Zhilu about things that An Yu couldn't understand.
Zhu Tao, who was sitting next to Lu Ming, said, "Sit down and eat. Don't be restrained. Everyone is very casual."
Lu Meng politely but distantly refused: "I've been sitting for a day, I just want to stand."
Zhu Tao glanced at the untouched steak on his plate, stood up and took two desserts held in tin foil from the far tray, "I recently made a new mixed berry pie, do you want to try it?"
"Grape is very good at cooking." Yan said, "Try it."
Lu Ming, who had already stretched out his hand, temporarily changed his direction, scooped up a spoonful of nearby custard, and put it into his mouth with a stern expression.
He didn't seem to be fully used to the sonic metal patterns on his lips, and the skin around them was a little red.
An Yu's terminal suddenly shook. It was Zhu Tao who sent the message.
-Someone appears who is more difficult to get close to than you. My commander asked me to help him integrate into everyone, but that’s great! Disaster! ah!
An Yu raised his head, tried his best to convey a hint of comfort with his eyes, and then lowered his head to reply.
-Can you give me a try of the raspberry pie? I can't reach it.
Zhu Tao: ...Okay.
Except for the low air pressure around the standing Lumen, the atmosphere at the dinner table became increasingly lively.
When An Yu put away the terminal, he saw the time number at the top of the screen suddenly bounced twice.
It jumped from 23:58 to 23:59, and then quickly returned to 23:58.
He thought he had fainted and was about to put away the terminal when suddenly there was silence on both sides of the dinner table.
A serious silence enveloped the space, and the senior management and supervisory subjects who had been laughing just now looked at the electronic clock on the wall in unison.
23:58.
23:59.
23:58.
23:59.
23:58.
…
There seemed to be a hand in the dark, stubbornly forcing the time that should have entered the next minute to be set back, again and again.
After an unknown amount of back and forth, time finally returned to normal.
The mandatory voice news suddenly sounded from the minaret: "Emergency notice, just now, equipment chaos occurred around the world. If you find that the electronic clock at home jumps repeatedly between 23:58 and 23:59, please do not panic. If you are around If you have a mechanical clock, you will find that time is flowing normally. We are contacting the electronic time server center and will synchronize the digital time around the world while you sleep tonight."
The broadcast ends.
"Is it just a digital time bug?"
Yan gently poked the terminal and looked at the time on it - 23:59.
The mechanical clock on the bookshelf has indeed reached 00:00.
Qin Zhilu glanced at An Yu calmly, and An Yu said softly: "Sir, I didn't notice any abnormality in the time. It should just be an equipment failure as the news said."
"not necessarily."
Yan raised his eyes and looked at the electronic clock on the wall that had resumed running, but was one minute slower than the objective time.
Those eagle eyes were sharp and compelling. He stared at the clock for a long time and sneered: "I feel like that thing in Area 34 is showing off its muscles to the world."
The author has something to say:
[Scrap book pages] 30 intersection
That era has gone far, but I still remember the first time I met that fateful friend.
The first session was pretty normal, we didn’t communicate much.
Even everyone present didn't say a few words to each other.
It was only after everything settled that I suddenly realized it.
A violent and terrifying reunion came on that ordinary and dull evening.
Perhaps it has been destined that the four of us will meet briefly in a peaceful and silent way before everything comes.

【Snowflakes】Jin Xuyan (1/6) Human Sand Table
I often feel that the world is a huge sandbox.
The wind comes and goes, the sand gathers and disperses, no matter how it changes, just watch it.
If you feel that viewing is not enough, then let it evolve according to your own wishes.
Even though I am just a grain of sand on the sand table.
In 2138, my father, my eldest brother, and I were all deformed at the same time.
Our aberrant genotypes are all black tiger, but I have one more black rose than them.
The brain said that Black Rose will give me psychic powers. Perhaps because of this, I am the only one who retains the human will.
They lost their will and became the first two people I executed after becoming a lawful person.
I killed the chairman and would-be heir of the consortium, and this huge business empire fell on my shoulders.
Everyone is mocking "the second son picks up the slack", but frankly speaking, I feel a little regretful.
Because even without this accident, this was the destined ending - the ending that I had been secretly deducing for many years.
I have been working hard for many years, but before it even started to work, God had already turned what I wanted into a pie and threw it at me.
Proved to me once again that I am just a grain of sand. Out of nowhere, only that thing has the ability to truly control the sand table.
Sand cannot be controlled.
Nor can you break free.

【Snowflakes】Jin Xuyan (2/6) is reluctant to part with it
I'm not a kind lawful person.
Qin Zhilu, Shangfeng, and Dingfeng all know this.
The outside world has labeled me as a ruthless chaebol and cruel and tyrannical, and I do not deny it.
Those beautiful deformed bodies were captured and given to me to play with before execution to relieve their deformed killing impulses. This would be of great benefit to me and mankind.
But no matter how many good-looking humanoid deformities there are, they can't replace the amazing glimpse of that person.
I wanted to have him the first time I saw him.
Still.
I have thought about it very seriously. As a senior executive of Minaret 2 and a chaebol that controls the energy and infrastructure industries, even if a human being is sacrificed in the name of making me happy, Shangfeng will probably acquiesce and secretly operate it for me. .
In an era like this, that human being shouldn't have too many complaints.
But once he comes into contact with me, he will most likely become deformed and lose consciousness. This kind of possession can only be possessed for a short moment.
I will have him for a brief moment, and then let him fall because of me.
Frankly speaking, I can’t bear to part with it.
So I will only watch from afar as he walks onto the stage in the main city, surrounded by everyone’s cheers and favors.
I will never take the initiative to set foot in his world.

【Snowflakes】Jin Xuyan (3/6) Leopard Taming (1)
He is deformed, in the direction of a leopard and a sparrow.
Aberrations are not uncommon. What is rare is that he retains the human will, but his temper becomes more unruly and unruly.
It's a pity that he refused to sign the Lawful Covenant.
After a long period of communication and testing, Shangfeng finally believed that he had potential anti-social tendencies and decided to execute him secretly.
I was stopped.
My genetic entropy is only lower than Qin Zhilu, a tiger can suppress a leopard, not to mention I have the genotype of Black Rose.
This time, he must surrender to me because I have been staring at him for too long.
Chapter 61 Main City·61
After midnight, dinner ends. Zhu Tao was excitedly planning to hold a midnight party. When Xi De saw this, he opened more than a dozen bottles of spirits on the spot, while Chao Wu directly took out his electric guitar.
An Yu was directly persuaded to quit by this nuclear explosion-style social scene.
He picked up the things on the floor and followed the officer into the elevator.
The half-closed elevator door opened again, and Yan and Lumen came in one after another.
Qin Zhilu asked casually: "Aren't you going to play with them?"
"Tang Feng and Shen Yang were forced to stay, and only Xide among the senior management was willing to support children." Yan yawned, "Oh, I forgot again, he is also a child himself."
Lumen pressed the floor button silently, and touched his cheek lightly when he retracted his hand.
Yan Xun wiped the red skin on his face and said: "The rejection period of embedded equipment is very difficult. The only way is to stretch the surrounding muscles more to let the inflammation break out and burn it overnight. Otherwise, it will be chronic inflammation. Tortured.”
Lumen seemed not to understand his suggestion and remained silent.
After waiting for a few seconds, Yan reached out and pressed the elevator waiting button, "If you want to join, just go."
