Silent tranquility filled every corner of the room, in sharp contrast to the heavy knocking from outside the door and the sound of people running to and fro. The noisy feeling became more intense as time went by.
, as if they were gradually targeted with orderly command. Half an hour had passed since Lou Yushang discovered the abnormality. All non-combatants in the villa had been evacuated from the second floor of the villa. I don’t know when.
Mr. Wu who arrived here also put his hands on his back with a serious face, and from time to time used low voices and warnings to regulate the surrounding Lou family's armed personnel who were preparing: "Don't use harmful weapons, put away all the light guns.
"
"Don't worry, Mr. Wu, we will not endanger the lives of the eldest lady's friends."
"I'm not worried about her life safety, I'm worried about your life safety! Do you understand that lethal weapons will trigger her ferocity? What kind of strength do the dead men of the Duan family have? You ordinary people
It’s unimaginable!”
"Yes, yes! We will recover Team T immediately, but how are we going to deal with her?"
"Wear protective equipment."
Without any further explanation, the white-haired old man with his hands behind his back reminded the armed guard captain beside him in a low voice. His sharp eyes facing the door also froze in place following the gesture of a certain team member in front.
on the ground, and then slowly moved up and down: "If your dynamic vision cannot keep up with the opponent's speed, just close your eyes and stay in place. Try to act as an obstacle to slow down the speed and protect your vitals. The remaining
"Down"
"Just leave it to us to handle it."
He pointed at the heavy protective clothing worn by the captain, and at the same time nodded gently to the team members in front, and then his eyes suddenly darkened the moment the door's lock was suddenly opened. Quietly
As the crack in the door gradually widened, the atmosphere spread to the second floor of the villa, giving the entire passage a strange feeling. The combatants who were holding their breaths also hurriedly tightened all their nerves. After a while, they
When there was no response, he carefully shifted his gaze: "...Old Wu."
His hands were already hanging by his side. The wrinkles on the face of the white-haired old man who was called out now became as deep as the deep sea. The divine light contained in his eyes also extended to the door as the momentum increased.
In the darkness inside, he finally moved half a minute with his forward steps: "Don't move."
As the old man advanced, the silent footsteps crossed the bodies of the generals dressed as armed policemen, and finally arrived in front of the dark crack of the door. His breathing seemed to be blocked, and then he faced him like this.
The door was ajar. After a long time, as if he had made some decision, he slowly raised a skinny hand: "...Miss Ninglan."
"you"
Still nothing unusual appeared, the door was quietly pushed open, and the dark scene was dispersed a little as the light penetrated from the corridor on the second floor, illuminating the layout of the room.
A neat room with a simple layout, no fancy furnishings, just a table, a chair, a cabin and a bed appeared in front of the old man in the same simple way. The air was filled with a trace of
The medicinal smell seemed to come from the medical equipment placed on the table. There was nothing else placed on the table and chairs facing the only window in the room. It looked like
It has never been used by the owner of the room. The tightly closed curtains cover the other side of the room in darkness, and at the same time it clearly reflects the flickering lights of countless game cabins, which seem to be constantly displaying due to some abnormal operation.
Error signals also appeared on the screen that loomed inside the cabin door, and were occasionally interspersed with extremely soft system warning sounds.
The owner of this game cabin, the woman named Ninglan, was huddled motionless in the corner of the white bed near the innermost side of the room with her knees buried in her arms.
"...Miss Ninglan."
The stunned feeling lasted for a moment on his face. The white-haired old man known as Wu Lao then gently relieved his turbid breath. He calmly took two steps into the room.
Then he faced the crouched woman beside the bed with a vigilant attitude: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
The woman beside the bed didn't respond.
"We have been calling you outside for a long time."
Without making any further approach, Mr. Wu said in a low voice with a calm expression: "You haven't responded, so we thought something happened to you."
"..."
The woman beside the bed still didn't make any move.
"It's past the time to eat. It's not a good thing for your health to not eat all the time."
The voice became softer, but Mr. Wu's highly concentrated energy was still focused on the motionless woman with her head buried in front of him: "Your health has finally improved a little, and now is not the time to be willful."
"..."
"...Miss Lou is looking for you."
After taking in the breath again, Mr. Wu, who was silent for a moment, finally took a step forward again: "If you still have this attitude, then I can only personally 'invite' you to see the eldest lady.
"
"It doesn't have to be this way."
The tense atmosphere was broken by the sudden voice. The figure belonging to Lou Yushang was also blocked by a dark shadow in the light of the door. She held her curved waist with one hand and then moved toward the person in front of her.
Mr. Wu waved and turned on the lights in this room: "I'm not a female emperor. When I see someone, I have to let others run over to see me. The reason why I asked you to handle it before is just because I have other things to do.
Just busy."
"I didn't expect that you would use such a big battle to deal with Ninglan." She said with a slight smile: "What are you doing? It's not like fighting, this is a big deal for my guests.
It's very rude, not to mention she is still injured, so resting is also an option."
"But the eldest lady"
"Okay, okay, no need to explain."
Pushing his hands to interrupt the slightly serious Mr. Wu, Lou Yushang blinked his eyes at the other party, then waved his hands vigorously regardless of the atmosphere and gestured in the direction of the door: "
Go out, and the rest will be just the two of us."
"..."
He did not immediately follow the other party's words and take action. Mr. Wu looked at Miss Lou in front of him with his attentive eyes, and then with the other party's still unchanged smile, he silently retreated towards the door and said, "Yes."
The weird atmosphere and solid atmosphere slowly disappeared with the rapid departure of footsteps outside the door. For a while, only the silent figures of Lou Yushang and Ning Lan were left in the room, not far from each other.
The smile on the charming Lou Yushang's face slowly disappeared as time went by, and finally he came to the curtain with heavy footsteps: "It's too close."
"..."
"Others may not know your strength, but I know it very well after seeing it with my own eyes."
Slowly opening the curtains in front of him, Lou Yushang faced the sunlight shining in the window and said softly: "Even someone like Mr. Wu, facing such a close distance, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to be alone. From you,
He escaped from the predatory range."
"...then why are you still standing here."
The figure buried beside the bed finally reacted. Ninglan's voice appeared for the first time since the door was opened: "Aren't you afraid of being killed by me?"
"I'm glad you can talk to me with your true self."
The corners of her mouth were raised slightly, and Lou Yushang's wavy long hair blocked her graceful profile as she lowered her head: "I also know why you are 'hiding' here. After all, after losing
Under the protection of the Duan family, no one can be responsible for your killing, right?"
"...I don't need their responsibility and protection." The eyes between the knees were inhumanly bright, looking at Lou Yushang's side face as if he were looking at a dead thing: "No one can catch me
If you can live with me, you won't need protection."
"Today's technological means are very high-end. I advise you not to make such big claims." Lou Yushang's voice was still relaxed and freehand: "Don't forget what you once encountered in the Duan family. No matter how skilled you are,
No matter how strong you are, modern technology still has many ways to subdue you."
"Such as 'brainwashing'."
She nodded her head, folded her arms and turned slightly towards the corner of the bed. The sudden murderous intention also covered her five senses, adding to Lou Yushang's self-maintained smile.
A few drops of sweat: "Okay, okay, don't get excited. After all, in reality, I don't have the skills of Mr. Wu. If a woman like me stands in front of you, I'm afraid there won't be any chance of resistance."
"Then disappear from my eyes." The murderous intention that appeared seemed to dye the side of his face into darkness, and Ninglan's voice became as gloomy as Jiuyou: "Don't appear in front of me again."
"Okay, whatever you want to think is up to you." He resisted the urge to reach out and wipe away the cold sweat, but Lou Yushang still maintained the smile on his face: "The Lou family will still treat each other with courtesy.
, I won’t say any more unnecessary words. I am only here to act as a messenger.”
"No matter who you are now, you still remember what happened in the free world, right?" She took a deep breath, and then, with strong murderous intent, she transferred her communication
He slowly took out the ball and said, "If I want to pass it, it will naturally be his word."
In the sight of the woman at the corner of the bed who suddenly raised her head, the communication ball flashed a bright light in Lou Yushang's hand. The slowly unfolding ball then switched to video playback mode, displaying the image of Duan Qing sitting in the white world.
Appeared in front of two people: "Cough cough, cough cough... Well, I heard that you are autistic, and Yu Shang found me specially and wanted me to meet you."
"To be honest, I can't meet you now."
The image displayed by the communication ball seemed very blurry, and the image of Duan Qing composed of blue and white also seemed unreal. Duan Qing, who seemed to be sitting in the clouds, also made a helpless movement, which was recorded early.
The complete picture could not take into account the disappointment shown by Ninglan who was huddled in the corner of the bed: "For some indescribable reason, I can only stay in the game world now. I can receive news from the outside world, and I can also receive news from the outside world."
It was all Roger and the others who found a way to pass it on to me through other means."
"But after hearing the news from you, I was relieved." He looked up at the white sky above his head, and continued as if he was relieved: "Because we have already found you in the game world.
long time."
"We all thought something happened to you."
There were two more hands on the knees that were sitting cross-legged, and he returned his face to the front of the screen: "If you fall into a state of brain wave disorder because of what happened before, you become like me.
If I become a 'vegetative state', I'm afraid I won't be able to forgive myself."
He showed a natural smile, and his eyes looking forward became soft and calm. The expression of the huddled Ninglan who was looking at this pair of eyes also became stunned, as if he was a little afraid.
Believe in the message conveyed by the image in front of you at this time: "Okay, now that you are safe, I can let this matter go."
"There are still many things that need to be solved, so I don't have much time." He waved his hand, and the figure and voice sitting in the white world became blurred together: "All I can say is
There's only one thing left."
"Whether you are a 'Ninglan' or not actually doesn't matter."
About to disappear in the white light in the image, Duan Qing said solemnly: "I naturally dare not say how well I understand your nature, but if possible, I hope you can use your true self to get along with me.
, after all, I am no longer a master or young master, and you are no longer the maid and killer of the Duan family."
"Whether you want to be 'Ninglan' or not, in my eyes, you are the Ninglan who has always been by my side." As if he had thought through something.
, he smiled and waved his hand forward: "If you choose to face it calmly, then I am also very happy to be able to treat each other in a more candid way. I believe that the relationship between us will also evolve with this."
Will it become better with a more true intention?"
"My little maid whom I call 'Ninglan', I hereby once again extend a formal invitation, not as your master or master, but as a companion, a teammate, and an ordinary player."
The white light dissipated with Duan Qing's figure in the center of the image, bringing an end to the message this time. The silent silence, together with the retracting of the communication ball, occupied every corner of the room. For a time, only those belonging to
The sobs from the woman's body curled up again faintly echoed in the room.
"I hope you can always be by my side."
