Chapter 0003: Space
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone displayed a look of panic on their faces
Emotionally, she is willing to believe what Zhou Jing says, but rationally, she cannot agree with it
Let us first discuss our respective identities and the circumstances that brought us here, sharing what we all know. He cleared his throat and said, "After all, this place is somewhat peculiar." There were no doors or windows, and apart from the nine people present, there were no other sounds.
Moreover, based on the information she currently possesses, Zhou Jing hails from Dongji Province, while she herself comes from Xijie in the Imperial Capital, which is sufficient to demonstrate that all nine individuals, including herself, could potentially originate from different regions of the Empire
Her upbringing in a challenging environment and her recent experiences with life and death have made her highly sensitive to the subtle expressions of others. She can perceive the disdain and dislike that this bespectacled middle-aged man has towards the burly man, yet there is also a hint of fear in his demeanor
I have tried it," said Zhou Jing as soon as he finished speaking, the male doctor in a white coat took his hand out of his pocket, holding a new type of smartphone in his palm
Not to mention the mysterious voice that had previously echoed in her mind, the method by which she entered this space also transcended the realm of scientific explanation. It is beyond the capability of criminals to suddenly transport someone from the alley leading to her home to this place without anyone noticing.
This must be influenced by the magnetic field, I suspect we are currently in a mysterious space. The doctor's words immediately caused panic among the crowd. For some reason, upon hearing this, Song Qingxiao felt as if it validated her long-held suspicions, and her previously tense body surprisingly relaxed a little.
Song Qingxiao, being in an unfamiliar environment, felt unsettled about entering this mysterious space and remained on high alert without relaxing her guard
After she entered the space and spoke to Zhou Jing, the doctor discovered that the mobile phone had lost signal. This indicates that everyone had not been in the space for long, and therefore had not noticed the issue of signal prior to this.
He was dressed meticulously, with a refined appearance that indeed matched the image of personnel serving in the municipal center. After he finished speaking, many people's gazes towards him became less wary.
The middle-aged man, upon hearing this, slightly drooped the corners of his mouth, but soon regained his smile: "Let me introduce myself first."
"Nothing is impossible." He sat up straight and said, "Given your attire, you must be a doctor. You should have some understanding of drugs. If a criminal used a hallucinogen to make you lose consciousness in a very short time and then moved you to this prepared location, your brain and eyes would be affected by the drug, causing you to hallucinate about what happened earlier, creating the illusion that you appeared in this place while you were awake."
After those with mobile phones looked at them, they found that there was no signal on their phones, and Zhou Jing put down his phone
His words caused panic among several people present, but Song Qingxiao felt that something was amiss
The mobile phone cannot make calls here, there is no signal
Impossible! Song Qing lowered her head, and upon hearing these words, she tightened her lips.
As the era has progressed to the present, technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, and satellite internet signals now cover almost every corner of the globe. The inability to make calls due to lack of mobile signal is a serious issue
Considering the above circumstances, Song Qing boldly speculates that no one can gather people of different ages and genders from different times, places, and environments together at roughly the same time, even with prior preparation, unless the other party is a deity
In such a strange environment, where everyone is unfamiliar with one another and on guard, at the very least, the identity of government personnel can provide a sense of reassurance
As soon as this thought emerged in her mind, someone quickly raised a question
She struggled to move her body a little closer, and Zhou Jing spoke up
I suspect that we may have been kidnapped by criminals, and that the criminals had already taken certain measures to cut off the signal before the kidnapping
Everyone immediately became chaotic, and many people belatedly reached for their phones. The woman in the red dress clearly did not bring a bag that could hold a phone when she entered the space, so she could only lean sideways to look at the young man next to her who was carrying a backpack. She watched as he took out his phone from the bag and fiddled with it for a while, only to finally raise his head in disappointment and shake it.
Upon seeing his identity subdue the crowd, Zhou Jing's expression became somewhat excited. When he spoke again, asking everyone to sit in a circle, the crowd was no longer as resistant to his words as before
Zhou Jing's tone was resolute, his voice deep and resonant. When he spoke, his words were powerful and emphatic, complemented by his body language to underscore his emotions. Many people were influenced by him, and judging by their expressions, they largely agreed with his conjecture
The doctor glanced at Zhou Jing with excitement, put the phone back into the pocket of his medical uniform, and raised his wrist to reveal a watch
My phone also has no signal
The doctor once again refuted Zhou Jing's words, this time with a heavier tone. He repeatedly contradicted Zhou Jing, which made Zhou Jing somewhat displeased, especially since those around him agreed with his speculation. The doctor's repeated rebuttals caused Zhou Jing's expression to darken, and he raised his voice:
Upon hearing someone rebut, Zhou Jingyi seemed to feel as if his authority had been challenged, and he immediately became somewhat displeased
"It is impossible," said the male doctor who first mentioned that his phone had lost signal, his expression grave. "I arrived at this place suddenly during work hours. If this is a man-made kidnapping, no one has the capability to accomplish this!"
My name is Zhou Jing, and I work at the Municipal Center of Dongji Province, with many years of work experience. As the middle-aged man spoke, a confident expression appeared on his face
The atmosphere on site suddenly became somewhat tense, and everyone exchanged glances. In this situation, no one dared to speak recklessly. The gazes of the crowd shifted back and forth between the doctor and Zhou Jing's face, as if trying to find a pillar of support.
What basis do you have to say that
Before entering the mysterious "Trial Space of the Gods," she was murdered by a stranger. In her final moments, she chose to enter this trial, and subsequently found herself resurrected, her wounds vanished. This situation felt surreal, almost dreamlike, yet the bloodstains on her body and the dirt lodged between her fingers proved that her previous ordeal was not an illusion
Because mobile signals can be artificially interfered with, I found that the watch on my wrist also lost its function. At this point, he sighed, tilted his wrist downwards so that everyone could see more clearly. Song Qingxiao also raised her head and saw that the hands of his watch were now out of control, spinning wildly.
Impossible
Song Qingxiao's body was still somewhat unresponsive, her hands trembling incessantly. Her appearance had already drawn considerable attention, particularly due to her arrival here in a completely soaked state, with her clothing stained with blood. Consequently, the rejection and wariness directed towards her by others were most evident.
Once again, she thought of the voice that echoed in her mind, "Shall we enter the trial of God?" She shivered with a sudden chill
Even the burly men softened their fierce expressions upon hearing Zhou Jing's self-introduction
Even considering the boldness of the situation where her hair and uniform were drenched by the rain, it is evident that some of the people here not only come from different locations, but their times and environments should also be inconsistent
