So how did I avoid so many "mistakes" before?

Obviously, something is affecting me...

Or, in other words, there is more than one "variable" in the world...

Wait!

Suddenly, at a certain moment, Lu Chen's steps suddenly stopped and his eyes widened slightly.

After thinking hard for more than ten minutes, he finally thought of someone.

He was the mysterious man who appeared in the cemetery in the middle of the night.

but......

After a while, the excitement in Lu Chen's eyes gradually disappeared, and his expression became a little depressed again.

Because although this mysterious person did "influence" him, the end result was just to help him guess the password.

And if nothing goes wrong, I should be able to guess the password every time I travel through time.

Therefore, the significance of the mysterious man's existence is not so much "change", but rather it is more like "correcting" the world line to ensure that what should happen must happen.

What's more, the investigation into the password only happened two weeks ago, and the mysterious man only appeared after that.

It still can't explain what happened earlier.

"Fuck..."

After cursing, Lu Chen felt a little annoyed.

He has been thinking about these inexplicable things every day in recent days, and any normal person would not be able to stand it.

He glanced at the carefree yellow-haired boy and stood up to go to the kitchen to get a bottle of Coke.

However, the moment he opened the bedroom door, Lu Chen was suddenly stunned again.

"..."

Looking at the second bedroom opposite with its door half-open, it was like a muffled thunder exploding in my ears.

At this moment, Lu Chen finally experienced what it meant to be "far away in the horizon and yet close at hand."

Fuck!

Always influencing myself, another "variable" besides myself on the current world line...

Isn't it Xia Yunian? !

......

......

"Hello, welcome."

The air conditioning in the brightly lit convenience store was turned on high, and the moment the door was opened, a wave of heat rushed in from outside.

Under the man's slightly surprised gaze, Xia Yunian slowly welcomed him, then continued to lower his head to pay the bill for the customer in front of him.

"The total is 32 yuan. How would you like to pay?"

"I'll scan you."

"Excuse me, thank you for your patronage, please take care."

It was still the polite "Japanese-style reception", but the customer who was checking out must be an old customer. He did not show any surprise and had a happy smile on his face.

It’s like I came to buy something just to hear “Thank you for your patronage.”

After all, apart from Haidilao, this kind of service attitude can probably only be enjoyed in foot massage shops.

Of course, this guest may not really come for Xia Yunian.

But the increased sales of convenience stores are real.

In the "Excellent Employee" selection that just ended a few days ago, Xiao Xia also won the title of Excellent Employee of the Month with a good score of 9.8 in customer satisfaction and received a bonus of 200 yuan.

Plus a big pancake from the store manager.

"Xiao Xia, keep up the good work. I'll make you the deputy store manager in the second half of the year!"

Some bald store manager said so at the time.

Considering that this convenience store has never had the position of "deputy store manager", this is probably just a common tactic used by bosses to retain employees.

However, it also proves from the side that Xia Yunian is indeed very suitable for this job.

Although being a cashier at a convenience store doesn't seem to have much future...

"The total is 8 yuan. How would you like to pay?"

"Okay, I'll give you two dollars."

"Thank you for your patronage, please walk slowly."

After handing the two yuan in change to the customer with both hands, Xiao Xia watched the customer walk out of the store, then turned around to look at the surveillance screen nearby.

Various areas were empty, indicating that there were no customers in the store at the moment.

Normally, in this situation she could take a break or play with her phone for a while.

But Xia Yunian strictly abided by the employee code of conduct and still stood quietly behind the cash register, like a bionic cashier robot.

Until a phone rang.

"Ling ring ring~ ring ring ring~"

The very ordinary ringtone rang for a few seconds and she picked up the phone soon.

Answering Lu Chen's call during work hours is the only situation in which Xiao Xia might have violated the employee code of conduct.

"Hey?"

Holding the phone in both hands, Xia Yunian said "Hello", and then Lu Chen's serious voice came from the other end of the line.

"Are you ready to talk now?"

"..."

Subconsciously glancing at the surveillance camera in the corner, Xia Yunian replied in a low voice:

"It's convenient. There are no customers right now."

"Okay, let me ask you something."

Lu Chen's tone seemed to become more serious.

"How did you find me in the first place?"

"Found you..."

Xia Yunian was stunned for a moment: "Because of the video at the zoo, I told you about it."

"I'm not talking about this, I'm asking about earlier."

Lu Chen spoke quickly: "You said you dreamed of saving the world with me, so at that time you only knew my appearance and name at most."

"But my real name was not used in the news reports about the zoo incident, and even the video was censored."

"Even if there are uncensored videos, their distribution is very small."

"So how did you know that person was me?"

"Don't tell me that you'll investigate the identity of a random person named Lu you see on the news."

"So you must be hiding something from me."

"I won't ask anything else. I just want to know how you found me."

"Don't say you forgot..."

After a lot of talking, a month later, Lu Chen finally discovered the problem that should have been discovered long ago.

And Xia Yunian's expression gradually became hesitant.

She held the phone in silence for a long time before she whispered:

"Someone told me..."

"Someone told you?"

Lu Chen's voice was obviously stunned for a moment: "Who is it?"

"Yes......"

Xia Yunian bit her lip and replied softly with something that sounded irrelevant.

"My bedroom, bottom drawer of the desk."

"The combination to the lock is your birthday."

Chapter 334 The identity of the mysterious man is revealed!

"The bottom drawer..."

Two minutes later, Lu Chen rushed into Xia Yunian's bedroom.

Compared with the master bedroom, the ceiling light in the second bedroom has lower power and the light is not very bright.

But it's enough to see the layout of the room.

A single bed, a neatly folded yellow quilt, a gaming chair, and an assembled computer worth eight thousand yuan.

It is completely the standard configuration for otakus.

The only discordant thing is the wooden table which is obviously quite old.

It can neither be raised nor lowered and does not use any high-tech materials. It is no exaggeration to say that this table has existed longer than Xia Yunian himself.

But considering that the landlord is a retired teacher, it is not surprising.

I have to say that old things may be more durable.

After so many years, this table still looks quite sturdy except for many scratches on the surface.

Of course, Lu Chen didn’t have time to study these things now. After entering the room, he just took a casual glance, then pulled open the gaming chair and squatted next to the table.
