Mu Jiashi asks with a curious tone when he hears Laosan murmuring, what eleven minutes?

At the sa ti, he also notices the man in blacks disappearancealong with Lin Qins. After his target went poof, Lin Qin just walked away, since this flowerbed in the plaza of the service area, really is too crowded.

Not just crowded, but chaotic. The Missiontakers are talking, the wounded Tower residents are crying, and also frightened from how the man in black just disappeared.

All of these to take in has Mu Jiashi push aside the reason for the man in black disappearing and the question he just asked Laosan for now, because he is still considering the issue of the flow of the tiline and the question Selfish just askedDid the man in black actually get arrested or not?

Laosan gives him a brief explanation of how he ca to the conclusion of the man in blacks whereabouts through the ti he has taken. He adds, although I am not sure why the the killer has to restart his journey once the boy reaches the service area.

Sothing in that sentence has ticked off Mu Jiashis nerves.

His gaze suddenly zeroes in on the little boy, still standing, shuffling behind Ding Yis back. He is a cowardly crybaby of a little boy. Its hard to think hes already ten years old

if one did not consider everything he has been through thus far. Really, he is a pitiful victim.

Though not in the eyes of soone like Mu Jiashi, wholly absorbed in solving the mysteries of the Nightmares. Instead, he has managed to connect so dots and co to another conclusion.

Mu Jiashi takes a deep breath shortly after, nodding at Laosan and saying, the duration of safety is eleven minutes, right? Then lets talk about this situation.

The Missiontakers do not notice, though, that Dai Wu is just leaning on the fence of the pathway in the service area, observing them with a a peculiar expression.

Mu Jiashi first explains their discoveries in the service area just nowThe change on the newspaper, and the new live TV broadcast in the gas station.

Laosan and Ding Yi both nod, seemingly falling into thought.

Mu Jiashi says, and what you just told

about how the man in black must restart his journey after the boy reaches the service area, has made

realise the third level of subtlety in the aning of ti in this Instance.

All MissiontakersAnd viewers in the stream, too, are looking at him with blank stares.

Only a few of those present suddenly widen their eyes and feel their heartbeats racing.

Mu Jiashi continues to explain, the three anings Or rather, the three implications.

First, the tightness of ti

In this Nightmare, everything we did, had an exact corresponding duration attached to it. Whether its one, three, seven, or eight minutes, it is exact down to the second. Therefore, during our course of action, we must take ti into account more than usual. This is the easiest implication to notice.

Second, the flow of ti

By the fifth run of the Nightmare, ti is pushed forward in the Nightmare. Police issue a warrant, the killer will slaughter innocent people during his escape. The police close in on him. Simultaneously, the Tower residents regain their mories. This is also an important point

why now, but not earlier?

That is because, ti was static during the previous few runs. Each Nightmare was the sa mont in ti played out again and again. Of course they do not rember.

Yet, when ti changes and moves forward to the next locality in the tiline, then our questions from the past few runs beco a past set in stone

the scenario no longer plays out from the beginning again or changes. Naturally, the residents rember.

However, what is notable is that the chaos in the Nightmare convolutes their mories as well; the cashier, for example, rembers both the third and fourth run.

Third, the cyclical nature of ti

This is what Laosan mad

realise and I completely missed. By cyclical, I do not refer to the Nightmare entering new runs, but The scenes we experience. The dark bedroom, the corridor, car park, service area. They are all in a linear, and repeating process, aligning with the death of the boys mother.

The dark bedroom, or, their ho, is where the family started their journey. Through the corridor, to the car park, to the drive, to the road, to the service area where they rested. Then, the couple argued, and drove ho through the expresswayThe mother died afterwards.

In the boys Nightmare, this situation looped repeated. His Nightmare,ishis mothers death, the endlessly repeating road to death. Their ho was both the start and the end.

Now, we can analyse the patterns of movent of the boy and the man in black.

The boy started from the bedroom, the bedroom where the cri was taking placeAs evidenced by the numbering off and the womans screams during the second run.

When he is able to leave the bedroom, that is after the cri. In other words, the mother has died, so the road to death restarts. When the boy begins, the mother is still alive.

As for the man in black, he starts from the corridor, but it is unknown whether it is before or after he has killed his wife, but from how he was chasing after us directly with the machete in hand, I suspect it is the latter, where he is starting his escape.

So the question is, why did the boys route not include his fathers escape after the death of his mother? Ill talk about that later.

Anyway, the path of the man in black also goes from the corridor to the car park to driving to the service area, and perhaps hiding there from then on.

In the fifth run, the Nightmare changed and the man in black was killing everyone in the service area, proving the flow of ti, and perhaps his motive was revenge for his wifes unfaithfulness. The police were alerted to this and begins their operation.

These are the two separate paths of the boy and the man in black, but there is a contradiction here.

That is when Laosan hesitantly interjects with a question, but, the mont he arrived, he started killing imdiately

I believe that the man in black did not represent the boys father literally, Mu Jiashi pauses after saying that as so thoughts flash through his mind, then he continues, there is a mask underneath his mask, which ans he is just a product of the boys Nightmare, a caricature fixed to be a murderer with a big machete, ready to kill at any ti.

Laosans brows are furrowed and he looks like he has sothing to say. He thinks Mu Jiashis explanation for this still feels forced in places, but he has no better explanation for now.

Though he decides to add his own opinion to Mu Jiashis analysis, I believe that the flow of ti happened only outside of the dark bedroom. We still had to number off during the fifth and sixth run of the Nightmare.

That is true, Mu Jiashi nods, confidently stating, like I said, the bedroom is the starting point and the end. It is a place fixed in ti, at the exact mont of the death of the mother.

Laosan nods while in thought. He seems supportive.

While the rest of the Missiontakers all look amazed or impressed.

The detective dalao himself is nodding like mad.

The rest of the viewers are typing on the comnts, though,

brain hurts.

This striking contrast makes X Beijin amused indeed.

Beibei plz stop smiling, it makes

feel like im the #1 retard of the month

im different, i thought i understand, but when Beibei smiles, im now doubting i did

i dont know, but i feel like my IQ is being scoffed at by Beibei

Beibeis smile such a terrifying weapon

X Beijin

Did he an to do that? Of course not!

Well, in any case, he did understand Mu Jiashi.

Everyone else is in agreent except for Selfish, who says, I have a question.
