The next day, early morning, Yan Huan's house.
It was a coincidence that Yan Huan went to work yesterday, and it happened to be Friday, and today is the weekend, so there is no need to go.
"Mom, this is the kitten I raised before. I thought it was lost, but a classmate called me and said he saw it."
Yan Huan picked up the plump Black Cat in his arms and showed it to Wang Yulu.
"Meow~"
And Meow-chan also meowed obediently, showing off his cuteness.
"Oh, it's so cute."
Because Yan Huan had laid the groundwork before, Wang Yulu didn't find it strange. Besides, she originally wanted to buy a kitten for Yan Huan.
"Let me take a look."
Wang Yulu looked curiously at Meow-chan, which Yan Huan lifted up. He stretched out Thumb and Index Finger, pinched its hind legs and lifted it up a little, looking at its furry body.
Immediately, she showed a confused look,
"Is this just a male cat or a female cat? Why can't I tell?"
"Uh"
When her mother asked this question, Yan Huan was also confused by the question.
gods
It should be genderless, right?
Anyway, after spending so long with Meow-chan, he didn't even notice it.
Before he could answer, Wang Yulu retracted his hand and suggested,
"But both male and female cats need to be neutered, right? Has it been neutered? Otherwise, we can take it for vaccination and sterilization in a few days!"
"Meow?"
As soon as he heard this, Meow-chan immediately opened his eyes and struggled, looking at Wang Yulu as if he were looking at Demon.
"Forget it, Mom"
And Yan Huan also took it back into his arms and let it stand on his shoulders.
Hearing this, Meow-chan felt relieved, thinking that Yan Huan was going to rescue him.
Who would have known that right after, Yan Huan said,
"It has been neutered"
"Meow?!"
"That's it"
Wang Yulu smiled slightly, seeing that Yan Huan already had his own opinion, he didn't ask any more questions and just said,
"I have to go out to do some errands in the afternoon. Didn't your classmate named An Le's house Shiyu have been found? Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Good"
Yan Huan touched Meow-chan's head. Seeing her mother's mysterious look, she didn't ask her what she was going to do.
It was only after watching his mother leave that Meow-chan was willing to get off Yan Huan.
It looked aggrieved, much the same as last night, and seemed to be complaining about why it felt that the number of subscribers to Love Cat TV had increased as soon as it came back.
"What a terrible woman, meow."
"Tap tap tap"
"However, this place is indeed much better than the shabby house you had in South District, meow!"
Meow-chan said this while running around in the huge living room.
Listening to the voice of it hating the poor and loving the rich, Yan Huan chuckled and subconsciously said,
"Boiling"
"However, I seem to have some questions about how Bai Yi travels through time!"
Halfway through the words, Meow-chan suddenly stopped, raised his tail and turned to look at Yan Huan.
". What did you just say, meow?!"
"It's nothing, I said you took the trouble."
"Meow?!"
Facing its pair of vertical cat pupils, Yan Huan avoided looking.
Meow-chan ran back quickly and meowed to Yan Huan,
"Didn't I say before, meow, there are many 'world line projections' outside the world line, which is a bit similar to the fantasy that the world only has results and no process.
"And every afternoon at 4:44, the world line will come alive, producing a similar projection in less than a minute!"
Yan Huan frowned and asked,
"Every afternoon. How many such if lines are there?"
Meow-chan shook his head and continued,
"Countless cats! But this is not important. What is important is that at 4:44 pm every day, the river of time will be very active!
"Just like when a person falls asleep at night, the brain becomes active to sort out everything he experienced in the morning, thus dreaming, but this process of world line will be very short!
"Ring Finger seems to have used this loophole in less than a minute to leave the current world line and enter the projection of the if line.
"Just like the last time you entered the if line with the master key!"
So that's it.
Yan Huan pinched his chin and asked,
"So, what is the relationship between this and Bai Yi traveling through the timeline?"
"Idiot meow! You think, every day at 4:44 pm you can enter the if line from the world line, and conversely, you can also return to the world line from the if line, meow!"
Meow-chan's eyes widened, he patted Yan Huan's cheek with a meat pad, and reminded,
"Normally, you can't reverse time and space or travel through the future, but the if line is a projection of the world line, independent of the real timeline!
"That's why you went to the if line related to the future before, meow!
"So in theory, any node of the real world line can be returned from the if line!"
Hiss.
In other words, Ring Finger treats the if line as a transit station through time.
To jump from one point in time to another, you only need to enter the if line once every day at 4:44 pm and stay there until 4:44 pm the next day to transfer.
"Is it that simple?"
Yan Huan's breathing couldn't help but become rapid.
Because, since he was able to use the master key to enter it last time, he can definitely do it this time.
He only needs to prepare two master keys, one to enter the if line at 4:44, and the other to go back to the past at 4:44 the next day in the if line!
"If only it were that easy, nya!"
Meow-chan really couldn't hold it back, sighed, and then said,
"First of all, even in this very tricky way, it is essentially traveling through time and space, and will be rejected by the world line!
"If you could time travel at will, the world would have been in chaos, nya!"
"Only a god like me can pass through the gap between the if line and the designated time point unscathed.
"Even if you are Child of Fortune, you will turn into a pink cat the moment you time travel!"
Yan Huan opened his mouth, but inevitably asked,
"It shouldn't be. Then how can Bai Yi do it? If she sewed Ring Finger into the spelling device because of the function of Ring Finger, then I should be able to do it too, right?"
"Ring Finger doesn't have such a function at all. Most likely, it's because of Bai Yi!"
"Because Bai Yi?"
Yan Huan was slightly startled, but then heard Meow-chan continue,
"It's Meow. Her physique seems to be very special. She is comparable to a god in this aspect, allowing her to travel through time and space without being affected.
"No wonder, there are many people who are more lucky than Bai Yi, but Ring Finger chose Bai Yi, who is only slightly more lucky than An Le, as the host."
Bai Yi's physique.
Comparable to gods?
Yan Huan was greatly shocked and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but still grasped the core question and asked with a dark expression,
"Wait a minute. According to what you say, doesn't it mean that I still can't travel back in time to save Bai Yi?"
"Meow"
Meow-chan blinked, but shook his head,
"I have an idea, it should be able to help you. I need a few hours to debug it, meow."
few hours
Yan Huan glanced at the time, it was just after lunch at noon, around twelve o'clock.
It will definitely be in time before 4:44.
This is more urgent than catching a plane.
"Okay, just in time, I'll go find them and tell them."
"Good meow."
Hearing this, Meow-chan nodded, stood up and shook his body, then turned into dust little by little in front of Yan Huan.
This is completely different from the way it disappeared instantly before, so Yan Huan guessed that the place it went to was also different.
"."
And Yan Huan is not idle either. People have to report to their families when they want to travel far away, not to mention.
He went really far this time.
In order to avoid the chaos that happened after his death last time, he still needs to vaccinate several hosts.
However, the only thing he wants to change is the disappearance of Bai Yi, and he will not change the rest.
Nothing will change now, except...
Bai Yi will be back.
Thinking like this, Yan Huan took out his mobile phone and first sent a message to An Le,
"An Le, where are you? I'm here to help you move."
"."
There was no reply.
Are you moving?
Yan Huan blinked and didn't think much about it.
After all, he knows where the house An Le picked is located, so he can go directly to her when the time comes.
"Click~"
Yan Huan walked out of the door, looked at the villa in front of him, opened his mouth and shouted,
"Sister Shiyu!!"
"."
On the third floor, the curtains of Ye Shiyu's room were closed, and there was no response.
Huh?
"Sister Shiyu?!"
Yan Huan shouted again, but the next second, the door on the first floor opened, and it was Aunt Wang.
"Xiao Huan ah"
"Hey, Aunt Wang, where is Sister Shiyu?"
"She went out in the morning and is not at home."
Out?
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Wang."
"Hey, it's okay."
Yan Huan lowered his head and opened the plane, and sent a message to Ye Shiyu,
"Sister Shiyu, where are you?"
"."
Again, no response.
Hiss.
When the two people didn't respond, Yan Huan raised his eyebrows.
Could it be that you went to help An Le move?
That's not right either
With An Le's favorable opinion towards Ye Shiyu being minus 91, it's good that the two of them didn't have anyone else to mediate and didn't come to blows.
No matter what, let's go and have a look. Anyway, An Le's new home is not far from here.
"."
The straight-line distance is almost one kilometer, and within ten minutes of walking, Yan Huan saw the house selected by Ye Shiyu.
A small villa of about 100 square meters is quite suitable for An Le to live alone.
But at this moment, Yan Huan looked through the fence and heard no movement.
"Call"
So the next second, Yan Huan thought for a moment, jumped directly on Second Floor, and scanned inside from the balcony.
Digital tablet, computer desk, some cardboard boxes.
Everyone has moved in.
What about Keren?
"Dong dong dong~"
I knocked, but there was still no response.
Weird, really.
"."
Yan Huan had no choice but to open the plane and send a message to Hitomi Sakuramiya.
However, after the Maomao emoji was sent, there was no response from the other side.
Three people in a row didn't respond, and Yan Huan's heart suddenly sank.
Especially when Bai Yi disappeared just before, he immediately had an ominous premonition.
"Da da da"
He frowned and finally sent another message to Aria.
this time
There was actually no response from Aria.
How is that possible?!
Yan Huan didn't believe in evil and waited at the entrance of the villa area for half an hour.
But still, no news at all.
Seeing this, Yan Huan's face couldn't help but turn pale.
At this moment, he looked at the extremely quiet community atmosphere around him, and his hair stood on end.
Is it possible?
Is it Ring Finger?!
Meow-chan The so-called Ring Finger has completely disappeared, perhaps it is a false proposition
Yan Huan knows, Ring Finger is not that simple.
But no matter how simple it is, it won't have such power!
Silently, all four hosts disappeared?!
"Da da da"
Yan Huan was a little flustered and called everyone one by one.
But none of them answered, which made Yan Huan sweat like rain.
He finally opened Tong Yingying's page and sent the matter to her,
"Sister Tong, no, I can't contact Hitomi and all of them!"
"Ding~"
However, the next second, Tong Yingying finally sent a message,
"Really or not?!"
Great!
Seeing that Tong Yingying could still reply to messages, Yan Huan felt increasingly uneasy.
"I've been waiting for almost forty minutes, and there's no news from four people at the same time. This is not right at all."
"Tsk, wait a minute, I'm at Jinghe District now, how about we meet up first?"
"Okay."
Subsequently, Tong Yingying sent an address, which was near Golden Lion Group.
Yan Huan nodded, immediately hailed a taxi and headed there.
Not long after, he came near Golden Lion Group and Ye International Tower.
People come and go here even on weekends, and obviously many people work overtime on weekends.
And among the people coming and going, Yan Huan saw the red-haired woman standing on the roadside at a glance.
"Sister Tong!"
". What's going on? What do you mean you can't contact them?"
"Literally."
Yan Huan frowned and handed the phone to Tong Yingying.
She read the message, then said "tsk" and pointed to Golden Lion Building beside her.
"Let's go and have a look above. Doesn't Spencer live above? Studio of An Le should be here too."
"."
Yan Huan didn't hold out much hope. At this moment, his heart was filled with worries about Ring Finger's unknown and terrifying abilities.
But he still couldn't explain this matter to Tong Yingying.
After all, the existence of Bai Yi has completely disappeared, so it stands to reason that there are only four hosts of Modifier.
No matter, let's go find it first.
If that doesn't work, he will go back to the past at 4:44 pm and change the fait accompli that Bai Yi disappeared.
If Bai Yi does not disappear, then Ring Finger will not go berserk at this moment, and they will naturally come back!
"Teacher Miyake! I would like to ask you about An Le today."
"Ms. Heather, is Aria at home?"
"."
"An Le didn't come today? Yes, she has to move today."
"Did you go out to play this morning? Now the tracking signal has disappeared?"
"."
Golden Lion Group Downstairs, Yan Huan was sitting on the bench with a frown, thinking about the abilities that might be related to Ring Finger.
On the side, Tong Yingying was sitting next to him and couldn't help but ask,
"Could something happen in reality?"
". Impossible, it must be because of Modifier."
Yan Huan shook his head, so sure.
If there was no Modifier and several people lost contact for only a few hours, Yan Huan would not be worried at all.
But now that Ring Finger and Yan Huan are involved and their abilities are unclear, I really don't dare to bet.
On the side, Tong Yingying raised his eyebrows,
"Really? Think about it again?"
"."
Yan Huan didn't respond, just glanced at the time nervously.
At this moment, it is almost four o'clock in the afternoon.
Forty minutes left
"Ding~"
It was at this moment that Wang Yulu sent a message,
"Xiao Huan, where are you? The meal is almost ready."
"."
Looking at the messages on his phone, Yan Huan sighed and turned to look at Tong Yingying,
"I'll go back, Sister Tong"
Tong Yingying looked at him with a serious expression and silently took out Car Keys.
"I'll give it to you."
". Okay."
Yan Huan now plans to go back and wait for Meow-chan to come back. If he solves the problem of Ring Finger in the future, they should also come back.
"Buzz"
Tong Yingying drove the car and sped along the road.
In the co-pilot, Yan Huan was looking at his phone, still trying to send messages and make calls to several hosts.
"Hey, Yan Huan, what's the date today?"
". I don't know."
Yan Huan shook his head and responded subconsciously.
At the same time, he also glanced at the time.
At this moment, it is already ten minutes past four.
"Meow-chan."
Yan Huan doesn't know what method Meow-chan plans to use to help him, but even now, he hasn't seen this boiling mist come back.
Do you have to go to such an extreme and wait until 4:44 before you are willing to show up?
"Today is July 1st~"
On the side, Tong Yingying in the driver's seat looked at the villa area just around the corner and said so.
"This way."
Yan Huan sent another message, but it still came to nothing.
He rubbed his brows, put down his phone, and looked at Tong Yingying beside him.
"Sister Tong, I have something to tell you. It's about Modifier."
At this moment, Tong Yingying also stopped the car, turned off the engine, and turned to look at Yan Huan.
"Just in time, I have something to tell you."
The expression on her face seemed to be a little helpless.
"?"
Yan Huan blinked and said doubtfully,
"What's the matter?"
"You'll know as soon as you get off the car."
Saying that, Tong Yingying smiled slightly, got out of the car, and came to the door of Yan Huan's house.
Yan Huan got out of the car with a puzzled look on his face. At this moment, he suddenly felt a slight weight on his shoulders.
"I'm back, Yan Huan!"
"Meow-chan, wait"
Yan Huan rubbed its head, and then looked at Tong Yingying in front of it.
He walked towards Tong Yingying, opened the door and asked,
"Sister Tong, what are you doing?"
"Click~"
And the next second, the moment Yan Huan opened the door.
Countless colorful flowers suddenly bloomed in front of him!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Ribbons fell from the sky, and the people in front of Hitomi Sakuramiya, An Le, Aria, Ye Shiyu, Wang Yulu, Ye Lan and Student Council all held up their fireworks tubes and aimed at Yan Huan.
"Happy birthday!! President!!"
"Happy birthday, Xiao Huan!!"
"."
At the door, feeling the colorful fireworks falling on his head, Yan Huan froze in place with his eyes wide open.
He looked indoors and discovered that the living room Golden Splendor was filled with a feast and a cake filled with candles.
It says "Happy 19th birthday to Yan Huan!!"
"Pah!"
At this moment, when Yan Huan was stunned, Tong Yingying on the side sighed and held his shoulders with his hands,
"Have you remembered? What day is today?"
"."
After hearing her voice, Yan Huan's consciousness was gradually brought back to reality by the scene in front of him.
So, he got rid of all these Modifier and recalled
Today is July 1st, his birthday.
