Lin Sanjiu sat motionlessly on the shelf for almost twenty minutes. The countless pale arms were still reaching out from the depths of the shelf, trying to grab something from the air. It was as if the fingers that were about to fall off from their palms were opening and closing as if they were trying to grab something from the air.
"How long will it take for these things to stop?"
From the corner of Lin Sanjiu's eyes, she saw a white shadow flitting past her several times. It knocked into her so hard that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. As time passed, both of them had lost the ability to move. If it weren't for her Higher Consciousness and her ability to speak through the [Soul of the Film Crew], Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to imagine that she would have gone crazy from anxiety.
However, she could clearly feel that it was getting more and more difficult for her to speak or use her Higher Consciousness. It was as if a layer of anesthetic had been sprayed all over her body. She was slowly losing control of herself.
They couldn't wait any longer. There was no time left.
Even Puppeteer had stopped talking nonsense. He managed to restrain himself. He did not say a word of sarcasm. Instead, he said in a low voice, "Who knows? Maybe they won't stop if they can't catch their target. "
If that was the case, it would be terrible.
Unlike before, when they could still rely on the goose to bring them back to the other side of the shelf. Now, there were so many arms on the shelf that it was as thick as a forest. If they got caught again, the goose would be caught just like the rope the moment it got close to them.
If that happened, both of them would be cut off from the outside world. They could only watch helplessly as they turned into a bag of snacks. They wouldn't be able to put up any resistance.
At this critical moment, both of them couldn't help cursing each other for being stupid in their hearts. However, neither of them said it out loud.
They were in a stalemate with the countless pale arms around them for a while. Just when the two of them were worried, a sudden broadcast shocked them. "Mrs. Cleveland, I heard that you accidentally slipped and fell. Are you okay? Did you break anything? We are neighbors, so I don't think you will sue me, right? "
This mindless broadcast ended quickly after saying these few sentences, leaving only a faint echo under the ceiling and the two evolved beings who were at a loss of what to do.
"What... what do you mean?" Lin Sanjiu asked hesitantly. "This should be the information provided by the pocket dimension, right? Why did they suddenly make this announcement? "
"Mrs. Cleveland, it's you. How would I know?" Puppeteer said coldly.
If he was asked to extort a confession through torture, he would definitely be an expert. However, when it came to complex and brainstorming matters, this big shot of the Twelve Worlds Centrum was somewhat unreliable. Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and gritted her teeth. She made up her mind and said, "I have one last way. I tried not to use it, but now it looks like I have no other choice. "
"What is it?"
Lin Sanjiu laughed bitterly. "Both of us are not smart, so I need a smart person to help us." This method was none other than [Consciousness Mimicry].
As expected, Puppeteer was displeased. He said sarcastically that before he met Lin Sanjiu, he had never suffered any losses in any pocket dimension. It was just that his low IQ couldn't make up for such a heavy burden. Lin Sanjiu was already used to his sarcasm, so she ignored him and activated her [Higher Consciousness Mimicry]. She sighed inwardly.
She had tried her best to avoid using her Higher Consciousness continuously, but she could not stop using her Higher Consciousness once she activated [Mimicry]. It was inevitable that the Veda would obtain information about her Higher Consciousness.
Imitating Nuwa would consume too much of her Higher Consciousness, and there was no need for it. Naturally, she chose the grand prize.
There were only two bags of potato chips left on the shelf. Amidst the countless hands scratching at them, Lin Sanjiu spent a few minutes in silence. "Ah!" Lin Sanjiu said through the [Soul of the Film Crew]. Then, she said hurriedly, "We are too stupid!"
"It's you. Don't drag me into this." After Puppeteer said that, he couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
Ji Shanqing's mind was indeed more than ten times sharper than Lin Sanjiu's. As she told Puppeteer about her thoughts, she lamented her own stupidity. "Why didn't we think of this? If we fall down in our human form, we will be caught. Why don't we just stay in our human form and jump down now? "
"The arms —"
"The arms won't catch us because we are already potato chips!" This fact had always been placed in front of her, and she simply did not know why she had not thought of it. "The reason why I was caught the second time was because I was in your hands at that time. When you were caught, you conveniently brought me in as well. However, these arms have no reason to catch the potato chips. They catch people to turn them into potato chips. What's the point of catching the potato chips? If they wanted to catch us, they could have caught us by now! "
"You have a point. After we jump down, we can knock the potato chips out of the aisle … "
"No, I don't think it will work even if we knock all of them out of the aisle." Lin Sanjiu poured a bucket of cold water on him. "But let's give it a try."
Before Puppeteer could ask why, Lin Sanjiu felt a heavy blow on her body, and she was sent flying off the rack. Lin Sanjiu did not expect her revenge to come so soon. The blow was so heavy that it allowed her to vent her frustrations.
The bag of potato chips hit the countless arms, but it did not arouse their interest at all. After being hit for a while, the bag finally landed on a pile of snacks and slid down the slope.
"You will be in deep trouble once we get out of this pocket dimension," Puppeteer said to Lin Sanjiu gently.
"Once we get out of this pocket dimension, you won't be able to catch me," Lin Sanjiu grumbled inwardly. Then, she used her Higher Consciousness to push herself off the edge of the shelf. Being hit by the arms one after another, Lin Sanjiu's nerves were so taut that she felt as if they were going to snap. After passing through countless dark holes, she finally landed on a pile of snacks.
"What should we do now?" Puppeteer asked, "Why do you think it won't work even if we knock all the snacks out of the aisle?"
"How can the snacks that fell out of the aisle be taken by 'me'? There are many remote control abilities. If we can find the correct answer by standing far away and taking all the snacks off the shelf, it would be too easy. "
"Maybe it's that simple!"
Lin Sanjiu did not want to provoke him into a rage. After all, Puppeteer was far more powerful than her. If they really fought, she would be in deep trouble. She sighed and changed the topic, "That announcement just now is very important to us … Did you notice it? It was exactly an hour after we had entered the store that the announcement rang out. Perhaps, the important information will only be announced at the hour. "
"How is it important?"
Even the grand prize couldn't wrap his head around this for the time being.
