Chapter 579 Can’t take care of myself

Dong Chen felt that a long time had passed, and it was inexplicable. He didn't know why he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he was lying on his own bed.

Although there was nothing wrong with lying on his bed, he still felt strange. It seemed that he had forgotten something. He didn't know how he got to the bed.

When he opened his eyes, he found that the world in front of him was different from before. The first thing he saw on the ceiling was a double image. It was not the blurry feeling of not waking up, but a real double image. , and any edges and lines have white light.

Especially when he shook his head, he obviously felt that his movements were not fast, but the slightest movement would stretch the dotted line, and he would immediately become a ghost.

Pursing his lips that felt a little dry, Dong Chen looked at the ceiling and slowly asked, "No. 1, what time is it now? Why do I feel... weird?"

As soon as he finished asking, a virtual screen suddenly popped up in front of his eyes, and then the smiling face of No. 1 appeared on it, "It's the second day of your return. As for whether it feels strange? Sir, don't you think you said Did it only take 0.2 seconds to finish this sentence?”

"0.2 seconds? Is my speaking speed that fast? Why don't I feel it? I also feel that my speaking speed is a bit slow. What's going on?"

Dong Chen was a little confused, and several questions popped up at once.

"Sir, please listen to this recording first...," No. 1 paused, then changed his words, "No, you'd better not listen to it. Just look at the time. I guess you're listening to it." There won’t be any problems.”

Although it felt a little strange, Dong Chen still knew that No. 1 was showing him a problem, and it was his own problem, so he watched the short video honestly.

The small video is displayed next to No. 1's avatar. It is a ripple diagram of a sound, and below it is a matching timeline.

And this voice is what he just said. It sounds normal, and there is some hesitation like just waking up and not being able to figure out the situation. It only lasts about five or six seconds, but the time display on the timeline below is It was not what he imagined, it was exactly the 0.2 seconds that No. 1 said.

Seeing this, Dong Chen looked blankly at Number 1 on the virtual screen and asked, "This..."

As a result, before he could ask, Number 1 on the screen made a silencing gesture to him, asking him to continue reading.

Then Dong Chen saw the scene of him coming out of the life-support cabin, including the scene where he took half a step and then lay on the ground to hold up his body, and then the projection of No. 1 stood beside him and directed the robot to move him. Going to the bathroom to take a shower and then moving him to his own bed.

After reading this series of things, Dong Chen said in disbelief, "In other words, am I... jet lagged? Or did I really fall to the ground?!"

Seeing Dong Chen's expression, No. 1 couldn't help but purse his lips and smile and said, "Yes, sir, you did fall to the ground. It's all my fault for not noticing your bad state at the first time."

"I don't think you have any regrets, I just see you smiling happier than anyone else." Dong Chen said silently.

No longer paying attention to the gloating expression in No. 1's smile, Dong Chen sat up from the bed and asked, "Does that mean you are talking to me faster now? That's why I sound the same as the normal speech speed before." No difference?"

"Yes, sir."

As Dong Chen sat up, the virtual screen in front of him disappeared, and No. 1 separated from the screen and turned into a separate holographic projection standing beside Dong Chen's bed.

"When I talked to you yesterday, you didn't respond at all until you fainted. After logical calculation, I estimate that your situation should be caused by the difference in time flow between the two sides, so when I talked to you today I spoke faster, and now it seems that my calculation was correct."

"Okay," Dong Chen turned around and looked at the things with white light around him and asked again, "Then when will I be able to recover?"

"Based on your physical condition, it's probably just the past two days." No. 1 pulled out another screen and displayed a graph on it for Dong Chen to see, "It was already half a day and one night yesterday. Although your "overspeeding symptoms" will still be more obvious today, they will be much better after today. At that time, you will feel that other people speak a little slowly, but you will definitely be able to hear them clearly. You only need to pay attention to your own language. Just hurry up, within a week at most, you will definitely be back to your original state, and it will definitely not delay your trip to space to cut the ribbon."

"Let's cut the ribbon... let's talk about it later." Dong Chen hesitated for a moment, then turned to ask No. 1, "Brother Sun, are you looking for me?"

"Not yet, but I guess it will only be in the past two days." Number 1 said.

"Okay, then I have to adapt to this situation as soon as possible, otherwise I won't be able to communicate with them."

After saying that, Dong Chen got up from the bed, took the clothes and put them on his body. He heard a "stab--" and a hole was ripped open at the armpit of the clothes.

Turning to look at the hole he had made, Dong Chen looked confused, "This..."

Seeing Dong Chen's expression, No. 1 burst out laughing, "Sir, your movements were too fast, and your strength was too great. A little obstacle couldn't stop you, so it was torn apart all at once."

Dong Chen: “…………”

In the end, Dong Chen did not dress himself, but became the eldest young master, letting others serve and dress him the whole time, even though the person serving him was...a robot.

Even today, he basically did nothing except rest and adjust to his jet lag.

His jet lag is not an ordinary jet lag. It does not rely on sleep but on interaction with the earth.

During this period, all the video programs he watched and all the sound programs he listened to were sped up, which sounded weird to others, but to him it was normal speed.

After this incident, he finally understood the horror of crossing two time flows, and he must do less of such things in the future.

Fortunately, the time this time was short. I stayed in the Arc Galaxy for only a few days, and the time on the Earth was even shorter. Including the period of coma, it was only half a day.

If there is something like this that spans time flow in the future, either we can just go through it as a whole, or let the robot be there, and then he can watch the live video here, and never do anything like this that spans both sides again.

Fortunately, he was protected by protective fluid in the life-support cabin, so he was fine when using the stand-in robot.

And his current symptoms are just that he is suddenly unable to adapt to the flow of time after being separated from the protection of the protective liquid. In addition, the time is short, so it is not a serious problem.

Although such repeated changes in time flow speed are helpful for him to quickly control bullet time, he feels that in order to increase his proficiency so as not to risk his own life, he can practice slowly by himself.

However, after Dong Chen had been like this for a day, No. 1 said to him, "Sir, Mr. Sun is looking for you. Do you want him to come to you, or do you go to him?"

Dong Chen looked at the faint edge of the white light of the object in front of him, then looked at the speech speed multiplier of No. 1 in the upper right corner of the eye screen and said, "I'd better go find him. It's time for me to move around."
