My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 228: Suspicious Points in Community Surveillance
"What time did you arrive?"

Zhuang Xiao then asked about the specific time.

他看了眼墙上钟表，现在是2025年4月2日，凌晨1点33分。

庄晓记得很清楚，他出门的时候是2025年4月1日，21点55分左右。

Shu Die also looked up at the clock, "About an hour ago? Anyway, it was definitely not twelve o'clock when I got home."

In other words, she arrives home between 23:30 and 0:.

Zhuang Xiao suddenly asked, "Xiao Die, didn't you notice anything wrong when you came back?"

Shu Die tilted her head, "What's wrong? Oh, right! Brother Xiao, were you playing games with someone this afternoon? I came back and saw that the TV and the game console were not turned off."

As she said this she yawned.

Zhuang Xiao was happy, "You must be tired from traveling all the time, go back to your room and go to sleep."

Shu Die yawned again, rubbed the tears from the corners of her eyes, subconsciously pulled the collar of her silk pajamas, and then quietly glanced at Zhuang Xiao.

Seeing that he didn't react, she didn't know whether she was disappointed or satisfied. Anyway, she went back to her bedroom to sleep, mumbling to herself.

But when she returned to the house, the smile on Zhuang Xiao's face disappeared.

In order to avoid disturbing Shu Die, he walked slowly and quietly to the refrigerator, then raised his hand and opened the refrigerator door.

There are rows of glass bottles of mineral water inside.

But the crux of the problem is not here, but the three extremely abrupt bottles of Suntory unsweetened black tea inside.

"So. It's not fake."

Zhuang Xiao took a bottle of water, closed the refrigerator door, turned off the lights in the living room, and went to the study quietly.

After entering the study, he locked the door, then unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of water.

The cold liquid flowed down his throat, relaxing his tense spirit a little.

Then he put down the bottle and turned on the computer. After entering the password, he opened a word document on the desktop.

After thinking for a moment, he began to summarize today's events according to his past habits.

[1. Shudie said she just came back an hour ago, so the 'Shudie' who appeared in the afternoon might not be her, but I can't rule out the possibility that she was joking with me.]

[Confirmation method: Wait until she wakes up during the day and check her booking information to find out, or go to the property management to check the surveillance video to confirm when she returns.]

[Let's assume that what she said is true, then the 'Shudie' that appeared in the afternoon is not her. Even the two 'Shudie' that appeared in the afternoon are not the same person. Because their personalities are obviously inconsistent. ]

[The 'Short-haired Shudie' wearing a baseball cap is more lively, likes to dance, and is also good at dancing. ]

['Shudie in Skirt' has a cooler and calmer personality. ]

[Then the question is, what is the situation between the two of them? Is it Shu Die from different timelines? But it shouldn't be, because of my "time travel back", people from other timelines shouldn't exist. ]

[Is it a parallel world? But how did they get here? This needs to be confirmed. After waking up during the day, I will definitely go to the property management to see if the surveillance camera has captured them.]

[2. The body in the basement of the chicken farm warehouse may be related to me. The principle of the body's appearance is probably the same as that of Gu Shiyue. The specific identity and cause of death of the other party will have to wait for news from Dong Weirui.]

[What to do after waking up: Wait for the result from Dong Weirui, and confirm with Shudie the time she came back yesterday. I can't look for her, I have to go to the property management to see if this Shudie is the Xiaodie I know? Although I can't see any problem, I can't be sure. Just in case, I'd better not disturb her for now.]

After all these were recorded, Zhuang Xiao read them many times before deleting the content, turning off the computer, washing up, and going back to his room to sleep.

Before entering the house, he glanced at Shudie's room, where the door was closed.

Zhuang Xiao smiled, then went into the house and closed the door of his bedroom.
-
He didn't dream at night. When he woke up, he turned his head and saw the sunlight from the large floor-to-ceiling window shining through the curtains onto the quilt.

庄晓拿起枕边的手机拔掉充电线，接着看了眼时间。2025年4月2日，10点47分。

I slept until almost noon.

Zhuang Xiao lay there for a few more minutes before he yawned and got up to wash up.

When he finished washing up and came to the living room, he saw millet porridge, pickled radish, a basket of buns, a tea egg and a cut egg pancake on the table.

There was a note next to it.

"Brother Xiao, I'm going to go out and take care of the business handover in Luoyang Zhongyuan District. Breakfast is on the table."

Zhuang Xiao felt the rice porridge in the plastic bowl and the steamed buns in the plastic bag next to it.

Still warm, but a little cool.

Zhuang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, then sat down to eat.

He finished eating quickly, but his face remained expressionless.

Because there’s something wrong with Shu Die.

Because Shudie used to only bring him KFC or McDonald's breakfast in the morning, and then forced him to get up and eat before going back to sleep.

Even though he later said that he liked to eat the spicy soup and tofu pudding, Shudie would buy the spicy soup and tofu pudding alternately with the pork fillet and egg burger from KFC, and then tell him to get up and eat them while they were hot.

But this time Shudie left him a note and bought him millet porridge and steamed buns.
Of course, one could also say that he shoots the arrow first and then draws the target. As long as he wants to find the problem, he will definitely find it.

What if the person just came back from Beijing and wants to eat something light?
Zhuang Xiao put this matter aside for the time being.

Shu Die is not at home now, which makes it convenient for him to take action.

After getting up and changing clothes in the house, Zhuang Xiao went straight to the property management.

When he arrived, everyone was very polite to him because of his status, and even the manager hurried out to greet him.

When they heard that he wanted to watch the surveillance footage, they took him to the monitoring room without saying a word and asked what time he wanted to watch.

Because the surveillance here will only be kept for one week, anything that exceeds one week will be covered.

Zhuang Xiao said he wanted to watch yesterday's, starting from when he and Dong Zeyu left in the afternoon until he came back in the early morning.

Because it took so long, the property manager simply gave him a copy.

After thanking him, Zhuang Xiao went home immediately, went into the study and started reading on fast forward.

It was around noon when he finally stretched.

Shu Die hasn't come back yet, but he has already fast-forwarded to finish watching it.

"Shu Die's Bentley Continental did enter the residential complex at 23:45 last night, and the surveillance camera in the underground parking lot also captured her getting out of the car.

"Then the Shu Die last night was definitely the Shu Die I have known since childhood.

"But there are some weird things about the other two Shudies."

Because the two Shu Die figures did not appear on the surveillance video at all, neither Shu Die with a baseball cap and short hair, nor Shu Die in a skirt.

There are no underground parking lots not only in the community but also at the entrance of the community.

Even the surveillance cameras in the stairwell and elevator didn't capture them!

It was as if they appeared out of nowhere in Zhuang Xiao's house or at his doorstep!
If it weren’t for the Suntory in the refrigerator, Zhuang Xiaozhen would have thought that the two people he met yesterday afternoon were hallucinations.
