At midsummer noon, the scorching sun burned everything on the earth without mercy.

The sun is scorching and the sun is scorching. The whole city is like a burning brick kiln. The air seems to have stopped flowing, filled with heat waves like fire, making people breathless.

Sister Chai and Xiaoxue are sitting on tables and chairs outside a cold drink shop on a commercial street. In such a cool and refreshing place, they are savoring the holy products of summer while whispering.

They are not like ordinary girls, and they do not show much shopping desire, and they do not seem to be talking about their thoughts with their best friends while shopping, and their recent situation.

If it was normal, then of course they wouldn't mind enjoying life like this.

——But now, they are not in that mood.

"Sister Chai, I have asked them to help find information as much as possible, but the progress seems to be small... We will definitely not find the physical information, and there are only those information on the Internet, so no matter how you search, you won't suddenly get more..."

Xiaoxue had a bitter face, took out her cell phone to compare the information, and spread the documents on the table and gestured.

"The legend of those two ghost buildings seems to have existed for a long time ago, but we couldn't find the exact time... and there was no way to find the rumors about the woman in red jumping off the building..."

"There is not even a rumor?" Sister Chai frowned, as if she was unacceptable to this discovery.

"Not not, it's just... the kind that has different opinions." Xiaoxue sighed, "Sister Chai, you know that rumors may not be completely false, and groundless things must be the cause..."

Sister Chai seemed to understand a little: "...In other words, there is no common basis for the rumors about the woman in red?"

"Yes, those rumors that are familiar to everyone, even if they are rumors, even if there are many statements, at least the thing they point to is recognized by themselves!"

Xiaoxue lay dejectedly on the table, her long hair hanging down her shoulders.

"It's like something like an old lady with cat-faced faces, and there are all kinds of statements. Some people say it was a zombie, and the army finally dispatched to resolve it... But no matter what the statement is, it's good, at least the incident itself is recognized."

In other words, no matter what the statement is, it is good, even if it cannot be proved, at least the matter itself is not fake, or many people know about the rumors and think it is true.

It is precisely because of this foundation that everyone knows that rumors have developed so much.

It’s such a simple truth. Whether it’s a zombie or not, or whether it’s a final dispatch of troops to solve the problem, at least everyone knows about the old lady’s cat-faced, and different statements are just different opinions on the same thing.

By the same token, if there was a woman in red jumping off the building in the previous one of the ghost buildings, even if there were different statements, at least the basis of the rumors was the same.

And if it never exists, then...

"Anyway, that's it. We have found a lot of news about the legends of those two ghost buildings, but they all have everything."

Xiaoxue muttered in a low voice.

"Maybe this person knows it, but others don't know it, and the other person doesn't know it, the other way around is the same. Sister Chai asked me to investigate the same thing. It is indeed some people say it, but not much, it doesn't seem to be true..."

"That's the case, there should be no reason... Am I wrong?"

Sister Chai thought about it carefully for a moment, and then seemed to become a little distressed.

"Xiaoxue, do you want to ask the police uncle for help? He had seen that phenomenon that night and should believe it... And he is a policeman. With his channels, he should be able to find some secret files, right?"

Xiaoxue just couldn't help but sigh as if she had new ideas:

"What reason should be used? And Sister Chai, are you going to reveal your secret? Even if others say it, they won't believe it, but once people who saw this kind of thing that night discovered you..."

She gently bit her lower lip and didn't say it, but just shook her head slowly as if she was expressing her disapproval.

“…”

Upon hearing this, Sister Chai was also silent and did not answer immediately.

After all, the more people know about this, the more risk it is. So apart from Xiaoxue, who already knows about it, she doesn't want her own particularity to be known to more people.

Especially for those who may be exposed to official aspects, most people will subconsciously think of avoiding them, which is a normal reaction.

Everyone is a mature adult, so naturally they will not think about being caught and sliced ​​by the state machine. After all, it is nothing to joke about or complain about this kind of thing. If you really believe it, you will be a complete idiot.

If something is discovered and confirmed, the country will definitely pay attention to it and will try its best to study it, but it will never be so stupid that it will just catch people and slice them immediately.

Speaking of which, what is the meaning of the so-called slice research? This will ensure that the value is maximized? It will ensure that all the secrets are studied at once?

Perhaps it is the only precious sample to even sacrifice directly for this?

Don't be stupid. People who can enter national research institutions will not be so stupid and naive. They even care more about the safety of the sample itself than anyone else...

Of course, a high-level rice insect life that loses most of its freedom may never be able to escape.

It was precisely because of this possibility that Sister Chai would not have taken the risk of exposing herself. If she hadn't been too shocked last night and was eager to find someone to share her panic, she would never have told Xiaoxue.

To be honest, she has already regretted it after calming down. Why is she so uneasy? She just found the problem and was so scared that she couldn't help herself. She immediately asked Xiaoxue to share it?

It’s not that you can’t trust the other party, nor that you have begun to suspect that the other party may fail your trust, but rather than worrying so much, it’s better not to let such a possibility appear from the beginning. Wouldn’t that be better?

As Sister Chai's thinking diverged and there was no answer, Xiaoxue didn't know what to say.

For a moment, both girls fell silent inexplicably, not knowing what they were thinking.

But at this moment, a voice came from the side—

"Are these two girls, can I sit here?"

“…”

“…”

Both girls obviously raised their eyebrows, and then turned to look at them at the same time. A young man stood next to their table, looking at them with a smile.

——Or more precisely, he was looking at Sister Chai, his dark eyes looked deep and shining.

"I don't have time, hurry up and go away. I'm not interested in you, don't hear it clearly!"

Sister Chai, who was already having a headache for some problems, couldn't help rolling her eyes. She supported her head with one hand and looked sideways. She found that there were free seats on other tables, and she immediately said unhappily.

If there is no seat, so she has to play the table, then she won’t mind it too much, but now the other party is clearly here to chat with her.

She has seen many such people. If she were to be a little lady and to deal with it politely. But now, she is not polite at all.

The same is true for Xiaoxue next to her. She just sighed, picked up the cold drink in front of her and dug a spoonful of it and put it in her mouth, without saying anything.

However, the young man seemed to disagree, or his inquiry was more like a routine. No matter what Sister Chai answered, his next actions would not change.

That's right, he pulled a chair open and sat next to the table, regardless of the fact that the two girls were not willing to compete with him.

"you--!!"

Sister Chai felt extremely angry in an instant, and she almost resisted the urge to not hit the cold drink in her hand on the other person's face. Of course, it was also related to the fact that her best friend grabbed her arm at the first time.

Even so, she still glared at the young man sitting down opposite without any concealment:

"Don't you understand what I just said?...Don't you come here to disgust people at this time, okay? Don't you think you are too thick-skinned when you see anyone on the street?"

"Oh, I'm not here to chat with me, so I don't think so." The young man said casually and responded to Sister Chai's hard tone lightly, "It's mainly because I happened to meet you, so I'll remind you..."

"Oh, what new routine is this? Let's remind me with kindness?" Sister Chai sneered, "Haha, I don't believe in any kindness. You just say you are here to cheat money, maybe I'm more likely to accept it."

“…”

“…”

The young man also frowned, then stretched out his index finger and tapped the table gently: "Okay, if you think this will make you more at ease, then I will charge a fee to answer, Chenghui 5,000, and no bargaining."

"You guy is really shameless. Don't you understand what I said? I'm asking you to walk away immediately!" Sister Chai finally became completely impatient. She turned her head and looked at the cold drink shop, "Waiter, can you trouble you-uh?"

The words came to an abrupt end, as if he had discovered something terrible, the girl's pupils suddenly contracted.

Moreover, the completely impatient expression on her face turned into a shocked and panic expression almost instantly.

Xiaoxue probably felt something, so she quickly turned her head to look, and then almost immediately, she opened her eyes wide in disbelief, her expression was exactly the same as the good sisters beside her.

The street is still the same street, and the cold drink shop is still the same. Whether it is the busy waiter in the store or the guests outside the store who are cooling under the parasols, it is no different from before.

——But, without any warning, the surroundings became completely quiet.

This is a still scene that makes people feel creepy, as if everything in their sight has been pressed. Everyone seems to have stopped moving at this moment. The vehicles on the road no longer drive forward, and the crowds on the sidewalk stop.

Everyone turned into solidified statues, and not only people, but even the moving vehicles and the leaves falling next to the green belts, all objects were stagnant, just like the long river of time was frozen at this moment.

Looking around, the two girls seemed to have been frozen, and time was frozen at this moment.

Until a long time later—

"What the hell is this... what... is it?"

"Is it time, has time stopped?"

The two of them finally realized that they were so stiff that they were like rusty robots. They turned their heads and stutteredly asked the calm young man opposite.

Even if you are a stupid person, you should know who is the initiator at this time.

But they didn't know that of course it could not be the stop of time, it was just the effect of illusion. Everything they saw was just an illusion, and other people in reality could still act normally at this time.

However, the "they" seen by others in reality is also an illusion, but it is normal and will not attract attention.

This two-way illusion created a relatively independent space directly on the prosperous shopping street where people were coming and going, and no matter what they were talking about, they would never be discovered.
