Chapter 16: The Eleventh Time Cycle (II)
Boy was a foreigner and was not familiar with the area, but Li Shiqing remembered that there was a large park nearby and that there was less surveillance in the countryside, so they decided to hide there first and then see what they could do.
Because of Boy's rare outburst of anger, Li Shiqing wilted a little on the way and did not initiate any further mention of the bus, but her mind was still on whether the car could be saved.
As Boy said, she had died so many times that she had become "numb" to it, and had grown accustomed to this "time loop", subconsciously thinking that it was a natural thing to keep "coming back from the dead". "Subconsciously, she felt that it was only natural to keep coming back from the dead, without thinking about what to do if the cycle of time stopped, or what to do if it could not be repeated.
Unlike Xiao Heyun, who hasn't had to time loop a few times, the few times he has had to time loop, he has had the companionship of "Li Shiqing" to lean on, and the despair of watching people die and not being able to end it in any way hasn't quite gotten to him.
He is more inclined to "break out of this time loop myself" than to "save the whole bus".
This difference in perception becomes more and more evident when the two finally begin to 'talk' in a secluded place.
"The best thing that can happen now is that our time loop stops, and we can sleep and wake up tomorrow. Whether the bus is in trouble or not, it's none of our business."
Boy sighed, wearily, "But if that's the case, sooner or later we'll face questions about how we knew the bomb was in the car; after all, we can't turn off our phones forever, or hide forever."
At that, Li Shiqing subconsciously argued, "But if the police succeeded in solving this bus bombing case because I called the police, they would have figured out the cause of the explosion, what the explosives were, and the identity of the culprit. If they choose to inform the whole network as they did last time, we will be able to get these causes and clues ......"
