Before the whole time travel, Meng Fei was worried that he would still stay in the Secret Bureau and fail to leave successfully.
After all, if the monster comes because the demon spirit is out of control or to capture the captured demon spirit, the time of action has nothing to do with whether he sends the email.
If so, there is a certain probability that he is being killed by monsters in both world lines.
Fortunately, when he opened his sleepy eyes, he saw the scene inside the dimly lit bus that was constantly shaking because it was moving.
It's only February and it gets dark early. The forest outside the window was dark, and his face, which seemed to be still intact, was reflected in the car window glass.
There are no invisible monsters, no body parts scattered everywhere, and no one dies.
People after get off work rested their heads in the shadow gaps and fell asleep. Only the red digital clock in front of the car was still beating.
6:05.
It's only been five minutes since departure.
In other words, he experienced a series of life and death in the newly abandoned main plot, which actually lasted only a few minutes.
In the memory of this alternate branch line, he went from getting ready to get off work, packing his things, going to the bathroom, catching the shuttle, until now, everything is normal.
He didn't send an email, and of course Chu You didn't call him either.
He went to the bathroom as usual before leaving. When he came out of the bathroom, he saw An Sheng in the corridor who was about to enter the bathroom.
It turned out that this guy didn't cleverly escape to the corridor outside the bathroom, but just happened to come to the bathroom like him, so he escaped the first wave of killings.
But An Sheng in this world line was very dumb. He entered the bathroom like a fool and didn't even say hello, let alone get down and grab his feet.
As he walked through the corridor overlooking the task force's office area, the atmosphere was unremarkable. Everyone is also living well.
Could it be that because he didn't send the email, the incident didn't happen?
If the monster's goal is to seize the demon spirit and X's body, what does it have to do with whether he sends emails or not?
His email didn't mention anything about demon spirits at all.
In Meng Fei's mind, the probability that the monster appeared because he sent the email soared sharply.
Of course, there is another possibility. Perhaps the slight difference in the sending of his emails in the two timelines caused some unknown butterfly effect, chain-locking the delay in the monster's attack?
It would be worse if so.
That means that now after he left, a terrible massacre may be happening or about to happen in the Secret Bureau!
What to do?
Ask the driver to turn around and go back?
No, the driver would probably give him a look and "ask" him to stay in the mountains to feed the wolves.
Even if the driver doesn't throw him away, all the other office workers who are eager to go home and rest will make a concerted effort to throw him out.
Unless he pulls out his gun.
But even if he pulls out his gun, this car belongs to the Secret Service. Who knows how many security guards with guns are sitting here or how many Secret Service agents also have guns?
And why are you going back to die?
It would be nice if Suzaku was here.
Suzaku knew about his branch ability. At worst, he told her about the horrific incident in the abandoned branch, and she would definitely try to solve it.
It's a pity that when I think of Yiren again, she is no longer here.
With her ability, she can burn that thing into ashes in an instant, right?
Meng Fei turned on his mobile phone and kept refreshing the signal.
Five excruciating minutes passed.
Finally there is a signal!
Click on the Goddess app and find the Crested Ibis.
Gray, not online.
Open WeChat and start a video directly.
Nothing happens.
In desperation, he had no choice but to click on Li Mu on the goddess app.
"Lao Li, are you there?"
"?"
"I have something to contact Zhu Xunfa. Do you have any way to contact her?"
Half a minute later, Li Mu replied:
"No, she is on leave now and no one can contact her."
"..."
Meng Fei then thought about it. Li Mu, a time travel maniac, could easily travel from Rongdu to Zhangdao. Should he have a way to travel to the Secret Bureau?
Simply remind him and ask him to go to the Secret Bureau to take a look.
If there really isn't one, just let him drive the car.
He quickly formed a rather white lie in his mind.
"There's something I want to remind you."
"...What's the matter?"
"Did you give the fragments of Ai Yi's body to Teacher Luo?"
"...It's none of my business.
“He applied for permission from the Origin Society.
"Besides, he is the leader of the Abnormal Biological Research Group of the Origin Society, so it makes sense to take this away."
Li Mu quickly explained.
Of course this is a deal between him and Luo An. Xuannv, the president of the Origin Society, is Luo An's teacher. Wouldn't it be easy for him to get the permission?
But in theory, there are indeed some problems with him carrying such a dangerous thing around.
I didn’t expect that young man Meng Fei would notice such details?
Hearing that Li Mu was a little panicked, Meng Fei became happy and deliberately used an unpredictable tone:
"I saw that he was carrying a box, which not only contained Ai Yi's body fragments, but also contained demon spirits.
"Both of these things are very dangerous. Will anything happen if they are put together?"
"Hey, Teacher Luo is very cautious. He is a veteran in this field. Just don't worry."
Lao Li said in his heart, am I just poaching you? If it weren't for the purpose of poaching you, would I have done it like this and made myself panic?
Meng Fei decisively began to tell the story he had made up vividly.
"Before getting off work today, I passed by the door of the teacher's office in the Secret Bureau, and suddenly I heard a crash, like the sound of a glass container being broken.
"I wanted to go in and take a look, but I was in a hurry to catch the shuttle, so I ignored him and went straight to the underground garage.
"The more I think about it now, the more something is wrong. What if... what if...
"I thought about it. I've been to his office and there were no glassware.
"The only thing I can remember about glass is the four glass bottles used to contain Ai Yi's physical specimens in his metal box?"
Li Mu almost cursed, you, Luo An, are known as collectors of undead creatures, are you trying to kill yourself now?
You can just kill yourself. Why are you in a place like the Secret Bureau, just dozens of kilometers away from Rongdu? Are you trying to kill me with you?
He suppressed the panic in his heart and said:
"Don't worry, it's okay.
"Don't tell others about this!
"I'm going to go take a look at the Secret Bureau now."
"Okay. But wait!"
"What else?"
Li Mu was obviously a little distracted. But after Meng Fei fooled him this time, he felt it was not enough.
"Have you ever heard of a humanoid monster with many long limbs like broadswords? Not only is it invisible, but it also moves silently and makes no sound even when it touches something?"
"Have not heard."
Li Mu replied unceremoniously.
"It is super powerful and can kill President Chu and Teacher Luo instantly."
"...Why did you suddenly say this?"
Meng Fei was once again entangled. He scratched his head and decided to give it a go.
"If I said that I have a mysterious power that allows me to see the future, would you believe it?"
"Do not believe."
"Why?"
"Just think I believe it. If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. I'm in a hurry."
"The monster may have appeared in the secret bureau to steal X's body fragments and the demon spirit, and killed everyone in the task force."
"Kill them all? But you are still alive?"
“I mean, I dreamed all this while I was dreaming on my desk.
"I was born with this power. Sometimes I can see what is about to happen in my dreams, and it is very accurate."
"..."
Suddenly talking about his dream, Li Mu was shocked and speechless for a moment.
