"You actually hid it from me for so long!"
"Sister, when we met, we were cheating... No, it was after the transaction. And how did I know who you were at that time..."
"What were you doing wearing that hat at Café Chandelier a few nights ago?"
"Uh... personal habits, personal habits..."
"So you already know my true identity, right?"
"Uh...this, this..."
The hazy sunlight passed through the glass of several windows and gradually illuminated the small room. However, the air in the room where Duan Qing was sitting seemed to have risen enough to match the temperature of noon: "I didn't want to join
Wings of Freedom doesn’t mean to work for Tianxiang Company, so don’t get me wrong..."
"Duan Qing!"
The woman's voice suddenly raised an octave, and her beautiful eyes widened at the same time: "Thankfully, I have always regarded you as my master, but you have deceived me again and again!"
"Are you women so sensitive? I just didn't tell you their real names." Duan Qing, who was twitching at the corner of his mouth, started to step back involuntarily: "Did you ask for other people's real names before adding friends in the game?
?”
"We... we are different, okay?" The woman's voice choked, and then she stood up with a sullen face again: "I even told you everything about Wings of Freedom and the company.
you……"
"Well, that doesn't force me to reveal my past, right?" Duan Qing waved his hands repeatedly: "I have so many secrets as a teacher, how can I tell you all of them, right..."
"Duan Qing, male, appeared in Hualan City in January."
The woman looked at Duan Qing's face and suddenly said something like this silently: "A person rented Room 40, Building D, Hualan City, and has been living there ever since. His work is unknown, he is good at unknown things, and he has had various degrees of experience during this period.
A part-time job, and...a girlfriend who has broken up with her."
"..."
"His true identity and age are unknown, and his experiences before coming here...are unknown."
Looking at Duan Qing's expressionless face, the woman's voice gradually became calmer: "The investigation to this extent is already the limit of what I can reach now, but there are still many secrets about you.
Countless, combined with your performance in the game and the information revealed by other professional players..."
"The possibility that you are the Sky-Breaking Blade that disappeared three years ago is very high."
"I have asked this question many times, but I came to you today... just to ask it again." Looking at Duan Qing's still silent response, the woman took a deep breath and moved forward slightly.
Qingyi: "Tell me..."
"Are you Duan Tianfeng?"
"...It's really not good for you to know so much, sister."
Finally discovering the slight trace of evil spirit revealed on the woman's body, Duan Qing also put away his intention of joking: "I think I have expressed this issue countless times."
He took out a white metal card and waved it nonchalantly in front of the other person's eyes: "This is my 'Duan Qing' ID card. Do you want to confirm it?"
"..."
"There is no such thing these days, but you can't go anywhere." Duan Qing chuckled and said: "Let alone life, it is impossible to even go to your company to buy a game cabin and come back to live. You found out what happened to me.
At that time, the names I saw must all be Duan Qing, right? It’s almost impossible to pretend to be someone in this world.”
"I am Duan Qing, not Duan Tianfeng." Duan Qing said every word: "As for the various inferences you drew based on the game... those are just your wishful thinking."
"But... these things..."
"I know that as long as I appear in the game world, someone will come up to me and ask me these questions one day."
Reaching out to interrupt the other party's words, Duan Qing slowly leaned against the wall: "Originally, I didn't want to have anything to do with these things, because these things have nothing to do with me, but when questions like yours come,
, I was also mentally prepared, I just didn’t expect... you, a woman who acts vigorously, would actually ask me directly. Those old friends who have been clamoring all day long to return to the sunshine of the past did not
He came to my door so actively."
"What do you want, a curious woman?" Putting the question back to the woman, Duan Qing smiled and said: "Or...what do you want me to admit?"
"I just want to know...your true feelings."
The woman looked at Duan Qing's face and expressed her suspicion in a low voice: "I just want to know... whether the help you have given me during this time is out of your sincerity..."
"...The fate between us is not such a simple story."
Pinching his brow, Duan Qing suddenly showed a confident smile: "And...even if the two of us really have some disputes, after so many things, they should be written off, right?"
"...For example, calculating our company's game cabin?"
"Uh, how much do you want me to pay?"
"Just use it as my tuition."
Showing her unique chuckle again, the woman sat back on the sofa again: "Even I, who have rarely been exposed to the Fool's Adventure Group, have heard about your poverty. If you were asked to pay the price of a deluxe edition, what would you do?
I don’t know how long it will take.”
"So you plan to let me pay in installments...?" Duan Qing replied helplessly: "As tuition for teaching you?"
"This way we won't owe each other anything."
The woman nodded with satisfaction: "If something else happens in the future... things between us can be clearer."
"……agree."
Looking at the other party's unchanged expression, Duan Qing could only echo: "Since you want us to figure out the relationship between each other more clearly, then let's do it more clearly. If something really happens in the future, that's fine.
Leave you further away..."
"You what?"
"Ah, nothing."
After interrupting his increasingly deep words, Duan Qing pushed open the door of his room and asked without looking back: "If there is nothing else...can we put this matter aside for a while?
I'm temporarily offline, and a bunch of people and things are still waiting for me inside... What are you looking at?"
"this place……"
The woman ignored Duan Qing's question, but stood up directly, and then walked up to him with the incomprehensible look in his eyes: "Has a woman lived here before?"
"...haven't you done all the research? I had a girlfriend before." Duan Qing spread his hands unnecessarily: "It's not normal for a woman to live here..."
"That was three months ago, and that woman has already left your side." The woman looked sideways at the door next to Duan Qing: "But this sign..."
"Which other woman do you have?" she asked with sharp eyes.
"Sister, who are you? Do you want to care so much?" So Duan Qing wailed again: "It's not like you don't know that our Qianzhihe stayed at my house. You just sent her away this morning.
Coming..."
"……Really?"
"They are indeed a group of incomprehensible creatures...I don't care about you."
Duan Qing turned his head angrily and walked towards his game cabin: "You can help yourself to tea and snacks. The door is over there. I won't entertain you. Do you want to leave or stay..."
Looking at each other with the woman whose face turned cold again, Duan Qing shrugged helplessly, then got into the game cabin regardless, and closed the door with a bang.
"Please feel free to do so."
************************
"You guys really don't make people worry."
Duan Qing, who seemed to have completely put aside a series of worries that had happened before, returned to the game and immediately devoted himself to the final construction of the station. However, before he could finish his work, several workers carrying wooden boxes appeared.
Just as Connelly led him to Duan Qing: "Can you wait until everything settles down before you talk to us about such a large transaction?"
"Most likely Mengzhu came to talk to you about this matter, right?" Duan Qing replied helplessly: "The leader is the supreme leader in our adventure group. Even I dare not listen to her words, so...since...
She made this decision, and of course I support it with both hands."
"Then there's no way."
The fat man with a beard pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled, and then pointed to the wooden boxes stacked in the courtyard: "This is the first batch of goods that were temporarily collected. They were all carried over for you."
"...In special times, it should be worth a lot of money, right?"
“These are all lowest prices, please rest assured.”
Showing a relieved smile towards Duan Qing, Connelly patted his big belly: "Consider it my gratitude to you. You saved Tania, saved the principality, and saved Pamir. At the same time,
It also saved the lives of us cowards... If I don't find another opportunity to thank you, I will be condemned by my own conscience and die!"
"Or have you found a new partner?" Duan Qing asked doubtfully, "And then start your new career in power?"
"Uh...ah hahaha, this is a win-win situation."
The bearded man scratched his head and laughed dryly for a while, then lowered his voice and approached Duan Qing: "I know that you are about to become a new star in the parliament. If you need anything in the future... you can come to me at any time, right?"
"Let me guess." Duan Qing squinted his eyes: "Is Fords also going to send people over to win over me?"
"What they want to do is their business, why should we care about it?" Connelly immediately blew his beard, and then rubbed his fat hands: "As long as we establish a sufficient partnership between us, their indications will not matter.
Of course, it won’t have any effect. Whether from the perspective of businessmen or the general public, we are all teammates on the same front...right?"
"We don't know whether we will actually participate in the parliament..." Duan Qing said expressionlessly: "Even if we really intend to take a trip into this muddy water, we do not represent the ordinary people."
"We represent adventurers." He whispered: "This group of people you have never looked down upon."
"The status of adventurers will definitely be improved this time." Connelly shook his head hastily: "I will not doubt this. After all, the future of the principality is yours to work together. If you don't face up to your status, then what will happen?
That’s too much…ah, is that your new store?”
"Yeah...why, are you unhappy?"
"Where, how could it be... Since everyone now has control of the principality's most precious resources, of course we must make full use of this resource, right? Now that Kazak is dead, the distribution of power in the underground black market will naturally need to be
To redefine it, as a member of it, we very much welcome adventurers... ah no, it's the arrival of the Fool Adventure Group, how about it?"
"...No need, as long as they can accept the warrior home, it is enough." Duan Qing replied: "They can basically represent our interests, and you can find them if you have anything...Ah, by the way, you can find Maggie
The Queen should be able to do it too, they should be with us now..."
"...You seem to have dominated the underground black market." So Connelly winked slightly awkwardly: "There are only a few forces in total..."
"Didn't you realize it was a win-win situation before? What else do you have to worry about?"
This time, it was Duan Qing's turn to slap the bearded man on the shoulder: "Cooperation means being close and trusting each other. Since you hope that we can jointly create more wealth...then we shouldn't be so clear about it, right?"
"
"Uh...ah hahaha, yes, yes."
The two men began to laugh at each other intentionally or unintentionally, and at the same time started a preliminary conversation about future cooperation. Finally, after Connelly took the initiative to leave, they stopped this unproductive meeting. There was no one following behind.
Ning Lan had already finished checking the goods in the box. He nodded slowly to Duan Qing, then looked at his face and reported with some hesitation what had happened during his absence: "Mage
The Parliament once sent someone to look for Mr., and they have something important to discuss with him. The Shadow Society also sent a letter, and the agreed place is still in the tavern..."
"It seems that we have completely become a hot potato."
After covering his head and saying this, Duan Qing closed the lid of the top box with force: "The connection with the underground black market cannot be broken, otherwise there will be a gap in the use of the furnace, but if we leave Tania, then
A lot of things here have to be put on hold..."
"It seems that it is necessary to consider Liu Zhan's proposal." Duan Qing frowned and said: "After all... should we separate the actions?"
"Although Ninglan doesn't want to be separated from Mr., but there must be someone to take care of everything here." The player in the maid costume immediately lowered his head: "If Mr. really has no other choice..."
"No, this matter is not good yet."
Patting the other person's head as if to comfort him, Duan Qing sighed and looked at the sky in the distance: "Besides, to deal with this kind of thing, you only need your brains. There is no need to keep a practical person like you, and..."
His movements paused, as if he sensed the prompt from the game cabin again, and then with a helpless smile, he pressed the offline button on the system panel: "Okay..."
"It seems that this time, we really got into trouble."
