Due to the existence of Leonid, Jiang Chenchuan and Chu Dong were able to communicate. The two parties exchanged the information and clues they knew, and understood that only by cooperation could they have a chance to leave Duanting Mansion.
"The time outside...has it been so long?"
Chudong turned to look out the window and sighed. She only felt that the night was too long, and she didn't expect that time had abandoned her.
With the presence of the ghost Leonid, the originally eerie mansion seemed less scary. The two explored the mansion and determined that the traces of the past had been cleared away and not many clues were left.
But Leonid always insisted that something must have happened in the Duanting Mansion. In order to find a way to break the distortion, Chudong told Jiang Chenchuan about the heavy rain and the woman.
"Heavy rain..."
Jiang Chenchuan murmured to himself. He thought for a while, then turned and walked towards the window.
Feeling the shadow around him disappear, Chudong realized that Jiang Chenchuan was far away from them, so he asked nervously:
"Where's Evel?"
"He's still here, as if... he's about to break the glass."
Leonid translated and explained on the side, speaking of it, if it weren't for the experience of Duanting Mansion, it would be hard to imagine that a foreign beauty who looked like an iceberg like Chu Dong would have such big mood swings.
She seemed to value her life very much, so after realizing the danger of the mission, she gave herself a backup plan.
Evel seemed... to be a very reliable man. It was probably because of this impression that she wanted to ask Jiang Chenchuan for help.
But now, this reliable man was groping for the window in front of him. The seemingly fragile glass was extremely strong.
"It's not completely integrated into the space..." strontium Luong曧觧螞甞緞δ://wwws?/a>苲ww s://? target="_bnk">?? target="_bnk">s:// ?/a>??/a>Quinonew
"Ah? What did you say?"
Leonid was surprised by Jiang Chenchuan's statement, but if we had to elaborate, the most critical part of the overlap in space is the layer of glass that connects the interior and exterior.
"What does Evel mean?"
Chu Dong also realized something. She recalled that when she used her eyes for the first time, she saw the mansion during a heavy rain. The windows were broken and the rain soaked the red carpet in the corridor. She could see it, but she never thought about it. The relationship between entity and memory.
"Because we are living beings, we are unable to travel through space. So... what about time?"
Jiang Chenchuan exploded like thunder, as if there was a rustling rainstorm in my ears, and raindrops like white noise continued to hit the ground.
"Leonid, you also said that in your eyes, you can see the worlds of several times overlapping together. So if you want to know the truth, why can't you cross time and explore it yourself?"
As he said at that time, time is a very special quality that seems to be able to change everything, but also seems unable to change.
"Is there any way? Leonid."
Jiang Chenchuan asked.
"Yes, yes...but it's very risky."
Leonid looked embarrassed. He looked at Jiang Chenchuan and then worriedly at Chu Dong. He had a solution, but...
"There are two forms of people in the world, one is the body, and the other is the soul. The dead cannot be resurrected, but it is not said that the soul cannot be separated from the living body."
In particular, there are very few exceptions like Jiang Chenchuan who are resurrected in others.
"So, I should..."
"Like me, you can see it."
Leonid adjusted his collar. Although it could not be touched, he symbolically paid attention to the etiquette of a gentleman. In fact, everything has risks and costs.
"What did Mr. Ewell say?"
There is still a little bit of hope in early winter.
I saw Leonid turning his head, smiling proudly and saying:
"He agreed."
Chudong wanted to raise his eyebrows after hearing this. In this situation, one of them really dared to say it, and the other really dared to do it.
"Do you have any good ideas? Leonid."
"Do you remember the gift I gave you?"
Jiang Chenchuan took out his pocket watch from his pocket. The dial was full of cracks, as if it had lost its vitality, and traces of the years of use could be seen.
"This is... my relic. Theoretically, it can extend the existence of time indefinitely. That is to say, but you are in a state of near death and your soul leaves the body. During the extended time, you can do anything."
Leonid explained.
"But after overusing the ability of the pocket watch, the corresponding price is that your real time will be correspondingly compressed."
"you mean……"
"The longer you extend the time, the longer your life will be lost. What you get from time must be given back in full."
This is the rule of relics.
No matter what sequence it is, different awakened ones have different abilities to exert the power of relics. Even if it is a defensive relic like the Bracelet of Protection, excessive use will bring negative effects, not to mention breaking time and distorting time. ,use time.
"Sounds like a terrible sad story."
In the silence, Jiang Chenchuan spoke first.
In fact, it is not that tragic. At least they have a way to escape. The staff and sword are slowly unsheathed, but this time, what it faces is not the enemy, but itself.
Leonid raised his hand, and the pocket watch floated from Jiang Chenchuan's hand. If it were in another place, this would definitely be regarded as a magician's trick.
The pocket watch responded to Leonid's call, and the illusory hands appeared on the dial, slowly moving counter to the direction of the clock hand.
Click——click——
There seemed to be a huge clock appearing behind Leonid.
"Including you and Miss Chudong, I can see five parallel worlds coexisting in different times, passages across time, Evel, you will... go back to the past."
Putting the tip of the sword against her heart, Chudong felt a stinging pain in her eyes. She felt something and subconsciously wanted to hold Leonid's hand to stop his action, but her hand passed through Leonid's hand. With her transparent arms, she could only say worriedly:
"Wait! This is too risky. Is there no other way?"
"Once you enter the mansion, there is no other way to leave except breaking the source of the distortion. If you can come and go at will during the day, then the night is the beginning of the distortion. Ivel wants to save you, but of course, he is also saving himself."
Leonid shook his head, and this was still the best solution at present. If Jiang Chenchuan had not summoned him inadvertently, then there would be no possibility for them to escape. Coincidence and a little luck could create this opportunity.
Otherwise, you will be trapped in this endless night for the rest of your life, accompanied by the corpses that can be seen everywhere in Duanting Mansion, blood, cruelty, silence... and fear.
"Miss Chudong, stay away from me and don't be affected by the distortion of time, Ivel...
Are you ready? "
Volume One.
The first chapter of the night: Sonata.
…
2022, autumn.
The drizzle of rain fell from the gray sky, lightly drenching the city streets.
It's autumn, and from time to time you can still see pedestrians without umbrellas hurriedly passing by with their hands on their heads.
In the narrow military-civilian alley, there was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, sitting opposite an old man under the awning next to the supermarket concession stand.
The whole world outside the awning is gray, and the ground has been turned light black by the rain. Only the ground under the awning remains a dry area, as if there is only this piece of pure land left in the whole world.
An old wooden chess board was placed in front of them, and above their heads was a red 'Flying Supermarket' sign.
"General," the young man Qingchen stood up after saying that, leaving the old man with thinning hair sitting blankly.
The young man Qingchen glanced at the other person and said calmly: "No need to struggle."
"I can still..." the old man said unwillingly: "We have only gone down to the thirteenth step..."
In his words, the old man felt a little embarrassed about the situation where he had lost his armor in thirteen steps.
Qingchen didn't explain anything. The murderous intention was revealed on the chessboard. It was the last moment of Tu Qiong Dagger's view.
The young man has a clean face and clear eyes. He is just sitting there wearing a simple school uniform, as if the world around him has been purified and transparent.

The old man threw the chess piece in his hand onto the chessboard, abandoning it and admitting defeat.
