In that case, Chi Jiao would beat her at her own game.
The old woman refused to come out? Alright then, she would ensure that this old woman had to stay in the villa forever.
Until the old lady couldn’t take it anymore and took the initiative to beg her to let her out.
“Are you kidding me? Why would I take the initiative to beg a wretched girl to let me off? Even if I die here, I will never beg for mercy! Damn girl, you still don’t know, right? The flow of time in my dimension is different from the outside world. A year in the outside world is only a day in my dimension. I still have food and water stored here. I have enough to last for more than 10 years. I will outlast you!” The old woman’s arrogant voice continued to echo in the air.
“Is that so? Good luck, then.” Chi Jiao’s nonchalant attitude instantly made the old woman even angrier.
The old woman kept spouting all sorts of insulting words, all of which were targeted at Chi Jiao and 117.
Shen Xing, Teng Ying, and the rest made the barrier thicker, perfectly blocking the old woman’s curses. Instantly, the entire world was quiet.
“Miss Chi, in this way, that old woman won’t disturb us, and she won’t be able to hear us either. We don’t have to worry that she will hear us,” Teng Ying explained with a smile.
Chi Jiao nodded and said in relief, “It’s been hard on everyone today. Everyone’s performance was very good. I’m satisfied. I hope everyone can continue to work hard and try to make this old woman admit defeat within a month.”
“But Boss, didn’t that old woman say that a year outside is only a day in her dimension? If the difference in time flow is that wide, wouldn’t we have to spend a few years to make her come out?” Beitang Lie asked in confusion.
“That old woman is probably lying. Look, the first batch of hostages disappeared for three months, which is 90 days. If it had really only been nine hours in the dimension, the men’s beards wouldn’t have grown that long. They look like they have been growing their beards for at least a month. In other words, that old woman is lying. A day in her dimension is at most three days in the outside world, not as long as a year. In other words, 30 days in the outside world is at least 10 days for the old woman. It’s enough to make her break down.” Bai Wanxi observed the hostages carefully. From the changes in their appearance, she could guess that the old woman was lying.
According to the old lady, a day in the dimension was equivalent to a year in the outside world. If so, the first batch of hostages who had disappeared for 90 days would have only spent nine hours in the dimension. Their appearances wouldn’t have changed much.
However, not only did the men’s beards become much longer, but their bodies were also showing signs of muscle atrophy from sleeping for so long. This wouldn’t have happened if they had only slept for a few hours.
“That’s right. My god grandfather once told me that the stronger a dimension-type Esper is, the greater the difference in the flow of time. Going by that old woman’s strength, the difference in time flow is probably less than three days. That’s why I planned to trap her instead of fighting her to the death,” Chi Jiao explained with a smile.
