169. Did She Not Pay?

Lu Ban woke up to the sound of the phone ringing.

The curtains in the hotel room were closed and it was a little dim. He heard the voice of "Good Luck" and picked up the phone. It was a call from Feng Yu.

"Hey, hey, I've arrived at the place where I'm staying. I'll call you to say it's okay."

Feng Yu's voice sounds lively and sunny.

"Oh, that's good. It's quite far. I slept all night."

Lu Ban moved his shoulders. Maybe because of his sleeping position, his body was a little sore.

"You will feel sleepy after eating too much, but you can't sleep for too long, or you will gain weight!"

When Lu Ban opened the curtains, Feng Yu's voice came, as soft and waxy as sunshine.

"I know."

After chatting with Feng Yu for a few words, Lu Ban hung up the phone.

He put down his cell phone, went to the bathroom, washed his face with water, and looked at himself in the mirror, looking a little haggard.

After a simple shower and change of clothes, Lu Ban sat on the bed.

He opened his laptop, clicked on the web page, and typed two words in the search bar.

Feng Yu.

Enter and search, Lu Ban saw a piece of news.

"Recently, a film crew encountered a flash flood while filming in Thunder Mountain. Many crew members were killed and many others were injured."

Under the news, I saw the name Feng Yu.

She was one of the victims of the disaster.

Lu Ban looked at the time of the news. It was March this year, probably not long after he traveled through time.

"She pretended to be Feng Yu to communicate with me. What is her purpose?"

Lu Ban frowned slightly.

From the first time he saw Feng Yu, he felt something was wrong. Later, before leaving, Lu Ban finally recalled where the sense of dissonance lay.

Feng Yu and Lu Ban barely exchanged a few words in college, but when the two of them chatted, they were like old friends who had been together for many years.

Even if Lu Ban says some words that may not be reasonable, Feng Yu can catch them.

This is too inconsistent.

Feng Yu is definitely fake.

So, Lu Ban tried it out.

Unexpectedly, when he finished asking that question, Feng Yu showed a bright smile.

"Would you like to sit somewhere?"

She did not respond to Lu Ban's question, but invited him to a nearby coffee shop.

The two ordered coffee, and Lu Ban took a sip. The taste was no different from cheap coffee in a convenience store.

"Where to begin?"

Feng Yu crossed her fingers and placed them in front of her. The sun shone on the side of her face, and she could see the very thin down on her face.

"To be precise, I'm actually Feng Yu, but it's just different from the one you first met."

Feng Yu said something that Lu Ban didn't quite understand, and then picked up the cup in his hand.

"For example, just like this drink, if it looks like coffee, smells like coffee, tastes like coffee, and is analyzed by various physical and chemical methods, it is coffee, then what is it?"

"Coffee?"

Lu Ban saw Feng Yu take a sip of the black liquid in the cup with some on her lips. She pursed her lips and smiled.

"It's the same with humans."

Feng Yu Put down the cup.

"If I look like Feng Yu, talk and act like Feng Yu, have all of Feng Yu's memories, and react like her, then who am I?"

"But you are not Feng Yu."

Lu Ban is not very interested in this kind of philosophical issue. He does not want to discuss self-understanding or Ship of Theseus's debate. He just wants to know what happened to the real Feng Yu and what is this Feng Yu now.

"I won't tell you the truth, because the more you know, the greater the possibility of contamination. I can only tell you that I am a traveler."

Feng Yu chuckled.

"Traveler?"

Lu Ban felt increasingly confused.

However, the information in Feng Yu's words felt very familiar to him.

The more you know, the greater the possibility of contamination.

This is the default rule in the Silent Land.

Of course, this world is also part of the Silent Land, so this rule naturally applies.

So, Feng Yu is also Chosen of the Gods?

When Lu Ban was confused, Feng Yu opened his mouth to answer his question.

"Yes, I travel to all corners of the world. Sometimes I become a part of the local people and experience their life. That's the kind of traveler I am."

Although her appearance has not changed at all, Lu Ban can feel a sense of indifference and vicissitudes of life.

The unique temperament when I first saw Feng Yu must have come from this connotation.

"So the real Feng Yu"

"The real Feng Yu is here."

Feng Yu smiled sweetly.

Gorgeous, seductive, deadly and dangerous.

Lu Ban feels creepy.

He concentrated and stared at Feng Yu.

[True Sight]'s ability will be stronger when Lu Ban knows more relevant knowledge and can see more things.

Now, Lu Ban knows a lot about Feng Yu, so in theory, he can see more things.

However, when he did this, Feng Yu suddenly stretched out his hand.

She put her two fingers together and gently covered Lu Ban's eyes.

Although it is a very ordinary action, when it is performed by Feng Yu, it has an extraordinary meaning.

"I advise you not to read it. This is for your own good."

Feng Yu's voice was a little worried, like an old mother whose son didn't do well in math.

"Although curiosity is the biggest driving force for human progress, in fact, curiosity can easily lead to destruction. Not knowing everything will lead to understanding the truth. Sometimes ignorance is the greatest happiness."

She took back her hand and smiled.

"Besides, looking at girls' secrets is not what a gentleman should do."

"I understand."

Lu Ban gave up the idea of using [True Sight] to see Feng Yu.

Thinking about it carefully, he had been able to search for the current situation of Feng Yu several times before, but he failed due to various reasons.

In a sense, this is not subconscious self-protection.

After all, the class monitor who had barely spoken to him in college suddenly started talking to me happily, and often paid attention to his current situation, just like the girl who had a crush on him, so there must be something wrong.

Lu Ban might have realized this subconsciously, so he avoided meeting Feng Yu.

Since the other party said there was no need to look, Lu Ban obeyed and did not look.

After all, he is not an irrational lunatic. When a being who doesn't know what the real body is tries to persuade you not to do something with good intentions, it's best not to do it.

"Okay, I've said it all. It's really time for me to go back. I hope you will still treat me as Feng Yu in the future, just like before. Well, of course, I can't be your mother."

Feng Yu drank the coffee in one gulp and stood up.

"Besides, I really like your movies and hope to see your works. Come on."

She waved her hand and left immediately.

Lu Ban watched Feng Yu leave and sat in silence for a moment before drinking the coffee in front of him.

". Did she not pay the bill just now?"

Lu Ban Know it later.
