Day of Imprisonment

"Liu Simiao, my name is Luo Xi. I'm your father's colleague. I heard that you and Zhou Ya are classmates, is that right?"

"Yes, it is."

"Can I chat with you about Zhou Ya? What kind of girl is she? I know this might be a bit sudden, but I really want to understand her."

Inside the room, there were only Luo Xi, Liu Mao, and Liu Simiao.

This was done to avoid having others present, which might make the little girl feel nervous.

"Zhou Ya, she... she is a very good person, very kind to everyone. She and I are very good friends. Like me, she likes dolls and making handicrafts, and she's also very good at studying."

"Have you noticed her mentioning anything unusual, or strange things? Or perhaps, did she meet any strange people, or have any strange friends?"

Liu Simiao was pondering. She thought for a moment, hesitated a little, and glanced at Liu Mao beside her.

"Miao Miao, if you know anything, just say it," Liu Mao encouraged.

"Zhou Ya has been a bit strange recently. She said she met a friend, and that friend knew everything, but in reality, the friend she talked about doesn't exist at all."

"Miao Miao, how can you know whether Zhou Ya has other friends, and whether this friend exists or not?" Liu Mao frowned as he asked.

"Because she introduced me to that friend, but at the time, only she and I were in her room. Yet, she introduced me to the empty air beside her, saying that was her friend, Wei Si."

"Wait a minute!" Luo Xi suddenly stepped forward at this moment: "Are you sure the friend Zhou Ya mentioned was called Wei Si?"

"Yes, I even found it strange. How could someone have such a weird name like Wei Si? At the time, I thought Zhou Ya was joking with me."

"Then, do you remember when this happened?"

"I remember, it was just yesterday."

"Yesterday?"

"Yes!"

Liu Simiao's expression was very certain. Luo Xi could judge whether a person was lying based on their tone, micro-expressions, and actions.

He was basically certain that little Liu Simiao was telling the truth.

The conversation with the little girl ended.

Liu Simiao did know some things. For example, she knew that Zhou Ya did have a friend named 'Wei Si', and Zhou Ya even tried to introduce her to him, but in Liu Simiao's eyes, the person named Wei Si simply didn't exist.

So, either Zhou Ya herself was crazy and had delusions; or, Wei Si did exist, but Liu Simiao just couldn't see him.

A normal person would think the first possibility was more likely.

But Luo Xi had already firmly chosen the second possibility.

Because 'Wei Si' did exist.

Returning to the living room, Luo Xi told everyone to go downstairs.

After all, it wasn't appropriate to keep staying at Brother Mao's house. Besides, Brother Mao's wife had also returned, and some things definitely couldn't be said in front of his wife and children.

Discussing things on the roadside wasn't impossible either.

"It's going to rain again."

Wu Rui walked out of the gate and looked up at the sky. At this moment, the sky was already very gloomy, and the wind that blew carried obvious moisture.

She glanced back at Luo Xi, who was the last to walk out of the apartment gate. She felt that the other person had changed a lot since the last loop day she had seen him, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what had changed.

Hearing these words, Wu Rui and the others thought for a moment, and their faces turned pale.

This possibility was too terrifying.

It was chilling to think about.

For example, in the past, they might have been like today, with a kind of impulse, a kind of yearning, or perhaps full of confidence, wanting to break the imprisonment and escape this world.

But what was the result?

They must have failed, otherwise, they wouldn't still be here.

The most terrifying thing was that if this matter continued to be considered, it would inevitably lead to a question: How many times have they been determined to escape from here?

2 times? 10 times? Or even 30, 40 times... or even 100 times...

At this moment, the hairs on Wu Rui and Guo Zening's bodies stood on end.

"And the method I have explored so far to escape from the Imprisonment Day is to find the card numbered 000, called [Escape]."

Hearing this, Guo Zening and Liu Mao's eyes lit up.

The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

Wu Rui already knew, so she didn't react much. Moreover, she was very clear that even if she knew that the way to escape the Imprisonment Day was to find that card, this process would definitely not be easy.

"However, at the moment, ensuring that memories are preserved in every loop day is the top priority, so we need to obtain enough [Memory] through the level scenes, so that we can be freed from the matter of 'how to preserve memories' and concentrate on exploring the clues of card number 000."

"In addition, I don't know if Wu Rui has told you about the situation of the card ring and the card book. I can simply say it again. Memory Holders can immediately obtain a card numbered 099 after passing three level scenes, named [Card Ring]. This card can form a card ring exclusive to you and summon an exclusive card book. These two things will be attached with some kind of special ability, maybe one kind, or maybe multiple kinds. For Memory Holders, cards and card rings are the only way to improve strength and obtain special abilities."

"So at this stage, Wu Rui, Brother Mao, and Guo Zening, you all need to obtain your own card rings. This is the first step, and it is also the goal you must achieve in this loop day."

"I will provide some level scene walkthroughs for you to try to pass the levels, and this time, I will no longer provide additional [Memory] cards to you. Some things must be done by yourselves."

After Luo Xi finished speaking, Wu Rui and the others were stunned.

If they enter a level scene without [Memory] cards, they will become Amnesiacs once they die.

From a certain point of view, that is death.

But then again, Luo Xi has no obligation to provide them with [Memory] cards.

And they all understood what Luo Xi said. The road is one's own, and one cannot always rely on others.

"Aren't you going to act with us?" Wu Rui was obviously the most敏锐 person among the three. She understood Luo Xi's subtext.

"I will take you to participate in a level scene again, because if I remember correctly, Wu Rui and Brother Mao, you have already passed two scenes. As long as you pass one more scene, you can get the 099 card ring. I will take you, and the chance of success will be greater." Luo Xi then said: "When you get the card ring, you will get an ability exclusive to you. At that time, you will need to conquer the levels and collect cards by yourselves."

"Understood." Wu Rui nodded. She had seen other people use card rings, so she knew that this thing was of great help to Memory Holders. She was a little excited and eager to try.

Although Brother Mao didn't speak, he also clenched his fists.

Guo Zening was a little worried.

In this small team, Luo Xi was undoubtedly at the forefront, had already obtained the card ring, and Luo Xi could always think of ways to deal with various troubles, and had established an absolute leadership position from the beginning.

Only he had only passed the initial scene at the beginning, and he still needed to pass two scenes to obtain the card ring.

To be honest, Guo Zening was really scared. The scene in the subway last time had already given him a psychological shadow.

But fortunately, Luo Xi is leading the team this time, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

"There is a relatively simple level scene nearby, come with me!" Luo Xi walked in front.
