They are not human! (From chapter 61)

214

Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Ye Ye.

Nancheng was a big city, and Ye Ye, after finishing his college entrance exams and preparing to fill out applications, must have learned about various places and schools...

If it was the same world, he couldn't not know.

Wen Qing pursed his lips, glanced at Li Ran.

Next to him, Li Ran and Li Jingjing wore matching shocked expressions, clearly not understanding what Ye Ye was talking about.

Li Ran stammered, "Ye, Ye Ge, what are you talking about?"

"What do you mean not in the same world?"

Ye Ye lowered his eyes, his face pale.

He didn't answer Li Ran's question but stared at Wen Qing and asked again, "Nancheng should be a big city, right?"

Wen Qing nodded.

Ye Ye clenched his fists, gazing into his eyes. Wen Qing's eyes were large, his pupils dark and bright, reflecting his current expression.

So ugly...

Ye Ye closed his eyes, steadied his emotions, and slowly said, "After my college entrance exams, I visited many universities."

"I learned about universities both domestically and abroad. Even if I wasn't familiar with them, I couldn't have never heard of them."

"In my world, there's no Nancheng, only Nanshi."

After speaking, he looked at Bai Tong and Jiang Yan.

Bai Tong's face was slightly somber.

Jiang Yan had a careless smile, showing no surprise.

It seemed they already knew.

Li Ran noticed something off in Ye Ye's emotions but still didn't quite understand what he was saying.

She turned to Bai Tong, nervously calling out, "Bai Ge."

Wen Qing lifted his eyelids, looking at Bai Tong, and asked, "Is it like different instance worlds?"

Instances and their worlds were mostly different, some similar, some not.

Just like the instance of Wenshi and his real world, similar but different.

The world Wenshi was in might also be some player's real world.

Bai Tong rubbed the rim of his cup and slowly said, "There's no evidence, it's just my guess."

"Everyone enters instances at different timelines, and what happens in the real world also differs. We might come from different parallel worlds, with cities and events that are both similar and different."

"It's also possible we're in the same world, just on completely different timelines, like the time flow in instances differing from that of the human world, creating an information gap between players."

Bai Tong said in a low voice, "In the human world, few people talk about real-world matters, and with various potential causes, it's impossible to investigate and confirm this."

"Personally, I lean towards different worlds, like Wen Qing said, instance worlds."

Hearing "parallel worlds," Li Ran began to understand.

She asked in a daze, "So even if Li Jingjing is my sister, she might not be my world's sister but from a parallel world?"

Li Ran grabbed Li Jingjing's arm and lifted her sleeve, "I remember you have a red mole on your arm; when we were kids, you lied to me saying it was a birthmark."
