Night’s Nomenclature

Four hundred and forty, heartbeat

Countdown to 719:00:00.

It’s another thirty-day time travel period, and the next return must be thirty days too. Many time walkers equipped with mechanical limbs may have to start thinking about how to recharge their batteries.

Qingchen returned to the 112th floor of Utopia Building alone.

When he opened the door, he knew that the shadow was already inside.

The scent of Jingshan tea comes out as soon as you open the door.

King Chuang said that the other party was holding a family meeting at the Ginkgo Manor in City No. 5, facing the censure of the Qing family bosses.

If King Chuang is not lying, then the real horror of this Shadow Gate is that it has no distance limit.

As long as you have been to any place before, you can reach it.

Qingchen walked into the room, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger as he walked: "As far as I know, you should be in city No. 5 now."

The room was quiet, with no sound at all.

Qingchen was stunned for a moment. He looked at the shadow lying on the sofa. He was wearing a black mask and a black cap, as if he was asleep.

However, Qingchen couldn't hear the other party's breathing, not even his heartbeat.

This made Qingchen feel something was wrong.

Even if the shadow can hold its breath, why doesn't it even have a heartbeat?

Did he die?

Qingchen frowned, he didn't believe that a generation of shadows would die so lonely in his own room.

Should I take this moment to take off the other person's mask and see the other person's face?

never mind.

Maybe if the other party comes back to life, he will be silenced.

Qingchen calmly moved a chair from the restaurant and waited for the other party to wake up.

I don’t know how long it will take.

A thud.

As if the drumsticks were beating on the drum surface again, the shadow's heartbeat revived.

Shadow sat up with a smile: "You are too heartless. When you saw me lying here without even a heartbeat, you didn't even look to see if I was okay? I guess you hesitated and debated whether to take a look at me or not. 's appearance."

"You are too playful," Qingchen sighed, "You come here to make tea in the middle of the night and then pretend to be dead?"

"The meaning of life is to be happy," Shadow smiled.

Qingchen thought for a while and said, "You directly used your ability to control the passage of time on yourself, right? So that the interval between each heartbeat is as long as several minutes."

There's a bit of a problem with this though.

The average human heartbeat is about 75 times per minute, which means that the shadow's ability to stretch the passage of time can stretch one second to several minutes.

In this absolute time, who can defeat the shadow?

By the time you take action, I'm afraid the shadows will have already spread your ashes...

Shadow did not answer Qingchen's question.

Qingchen looked at the other party and was suddenly startled.

Could it be that Shadow was really in some kind of near-death state just now? This reminded Qingchen of what the other party always said about him not having much time.

Qingchen asked doubtfully: "Do you really not have much life left?"

Shadow shook his head: "Don't worry, I still have a long life, at least two or three years."

Qingchen instinctively felt something was wrong.

Can Shadow tell the truth? He doesn't think so.

Then there are two possibilities. One is that the other party's time is much longer than two or three years. It is very likely that living for two or three hundred years will not be a problem.

Another possibility is that Shadow doesn't even have two or three years left to live.

But he couldn't let it be known that he was out of time.

At a certain moment, the answer in Qingchen's heart was even more inclined to the latter.

Just because Shadow always has a sense of urgency when arranging his affairs.

Anxious to give him the hearts and minds of the intelligence system, he even did not hesitate to expose something, eager to get Qingchen into the game, and did not hesitate to chat with Qingchen many times, and promised to give him forbidden items when Qingchen became a shadow.

According to Shadow's daily behavior and habits, why is there such an urgent need?

Qingchen looked at Shadow: "How much time do you have?"

Shadow smiled: "Didn't I tell you? It will be at least two or three years away."

Qingchen asked no more questions, and asked calmly: "I heard that you were criticized at the family meeting?"

Shadow said with a smile: "You are quite well-informed. Who told you? Could it be that you are an insider within the Qing family? That's incredible!"

Qingchen thought for a moment and said, "A time traveler told us that you supported the Intelligence Department's trade with Qingmu, which has made many important figures in the Qing family dissatisfied."

Shadow shook his head: "Nothing, you don't have to think about these things, you just need to take Qingmu home. Remember, the transaction time is set to be 20 days later, and the transaction will be completed in the Forbidden Land No. 065. As for how to make it smooth You need to take Qingmu home, this is something you need to consider."

"Wait a minute," Qingchen was stunned for a moment: "Why don't you send a master? These agents under my command are not masters. If you don't send a master, how can I get Qing Mu back?"

Shadow thought for a while: "Qingye and the others have left on a mission. You can think of a solution yourself."

Qingchen: "???"

How can I figure it out on my own!

Shadow said: "Don't worry, the Jindai family will not send out experts."

"Why?" Qingchen asked suspiciously.

Shadow said calmly: "They are now worried that the Qingmu deal was fake. In fact, I set a trap and planned to kill their master."

Qingchen understood.

Qingmu has been in the north for more than ten years, and no one has said anything about taking him home.

More than ten years later, Shadow suddenly said that he wanted to take Qingmu home. Kamidai's first reaction was... it was a scam.

On the God's side, a God's spruce was just tricked to death by the old man Li.

But now, what they are more worried about is whether the shadow of the Qing family also wants to set up a trap to eliminate their high-end individual combat capabilities.

Therefore, the other party will not send A-level experts over.

"But even if we don't send A-class, we will send some B-class genetic warriors," Qingchen said seriously: "The highest-level one under me is a D-class, and I am only C-class, how can I get through a bunch of genetic warriors? "

"B-class genetic warriors are not just bad people," Shadow said, dumbfounded. "The God Generation family only sent eight people to assassinate such an important person as Li Changqing, and many of them died. Don't worry, I believe in your ability."

Qingchen felt strange and said, "Why do I think you just want me to be in some danger?"

"It's nothing," Shadow said with a smile: "I'm helping you grow. In the process of growing up, a man always has to face some pressure. Li Shutong and I are different. He protected you very well before. I hope You are carefree, and I even want you to go back to school. But I am different. I know how cruel this world is. If you want to grow up faster, you must experience countless dangers. .”

Qingchen was stunned for a moment.

This sentence actually implicitly mentioned the urgency of time. Shadow hoped that he could grow up quickly, so he did not hesitate to take the initiative to create danger for him.

But why does the other party want him to grow up quickly?

Is it because Shadow's time is really running out?

Qingchen said: "What if I die in danger?"

Shadow said, "That's your life."

"Okay," Qingchen sighed. It seemed that he really had to rely on himself for this transaction with Qingmu.

It has to be said that both Shadow and Li Shutong are actually doing it for his own good, but their methods are completely different.

One is hoping that he can regain the happy time he lost.

The other is hoping that he will have the capital and will to survive in this troubled world as soon as possible.

The former protects him, while the latter lets him face danger alone.

At this time, Shadow took a sip of tea and said: "I heard that the Parents' Association under your command just raided the Mechanicum in City 18 and kidnapped a cardinal? When Luo Wanya came to City 10, I thought you were going to avoid the edge for a while, but in the end, you managed to avoid it and directly captured a cardinal."

Qingchen: "...Actually, it was also an accident."

Sure enough, Luo Wanya's arrival in City No. 10 and the relationship between Luo Wanya and Bai Zhou could not be hidden from this shadow.

Shadow said: "The parent-teacher conference is currently in a commotion. To be honest, this is the first time that the Mechanicus has been humiliated like this. A cardinal and a red deacon were snatched away from the headquarters... It makes me feel happy just thinking about it. .”

The Adeptus Mechanicus is also quite unlucky. City 18 seems to have become their black hole.

First, a sub-helm was abducted, and then a cardinal and cardinal deacon were also abducted.

Now some people are joking, will the Pope come in person, and then the Pope will be abducted? Will the Pope not dare to go to City 18 because of this?

Everyone knows that the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Parents' Association are already locked in a fight to the death.

But everyone is confused as to who founded this parent-teacher association. From the time it appeared to the time the cardinal was kidnapped, it was only a short month or two.

In such a short period of time, it has already had such terrifying influence and cohesion?

Shadow glanced at Qingchen: "Just wait, the Mechanicus is going to be angry this time, and I'm afraid it's going to get really angry. Although these demons and monsters who are pretending to be gods and ghosts can't come to the surface, they still have some tricks hidden behind their backs. Chen People from the U.S. and Kashima are also among them. I would like to see how you plan to resolve this matter."

Shadow continued: "Tell Luo Wanya to hide better in City No. 10. Don't think that you can start a war with the Mechanicus on your own territory. They will soon find out Luo Wanya's whereabouts and come here." ...Of course, if you ask me, I can help you deal with this Mechanicus."

Qingchen thought for a moment and said, "It's obvious that you also want to deal with this Mechanicus Cult, and you still act like you plan to negotiate terms with me."

Shadow nodded: "Yes, I do want to deal with them."

Qingchen said: "You want to deal with them, aren't you going to do something?"

Shadow: "I did it. I asked the informant to tell them that Luo Wanya came to City No. 10."

Qingchen: "...You can be a human being."

He could imagine that the big shots from the Mechanicus would probably swarm here next.

At this time, the members of the Mechanicum in City No. 10 have begun to mobilize all their efforts to find traces of the Parents' Association.
