"The results of divination with basic professional skills at lv1 may not be accurate. When you get a higher level, you can do divination a few more times to see."
Lu Yuan stood up from his seat and walked towards the library door.
He borrowed the mythology book in his hand and walked out of the library door.
At the end of December, winter begins to completely set in Jiaoyan.
Yesterday's weather forecast called for light rain and snow today. It is now 9:35 in the morning, and as expected, thin wisps of rain have begun to fall in the sky.
The rain was mixed with snow flakes as big as soybeans, which hit my face with a cold feeling.
The passers-by around him were either wrapped tightly in down or hurried past under umbrellas. Lu Yuan was strolling down the long street holding a book. His pale face turned rosy little by little due to the excessive consumption of mental energy in divination.
The gray pavement underfoot gradually became brighter due to the washing of raindrops and snow flakes, revealing the red and green sidewalk bricks.
The neatly trimmed shrubs in the roadside flower beds are dark green, and some have a thin layer of snow on them.
Lu Yuan reached out to grab it and held it in his hand, feeling the snow and ice melting rapidly between his fingers.
By the time he reached the entrance of a milk tea shop, Lu Yuan felt that his mental strength had almost completely recovered.
He stopped, ordered two cups of hot milk tea, and then walked to the entrance of a convenience store not far away, drinking milk tea and waiting quietly.
He made an appointment with Xia Zhijing today.
"The Nightmare's Daughter"
Lu Yuan looked at the falling rain and snow flakes in front of his eyes, with tiny rays of light shining in his eyes.
He found some information about the Nightmare's Daughter from Huang Xiong, and other people had experienced situations similar to Xia Zhijing's.
But in other cases involving the "Sleep Nightmare Girl", the victims slept longer and longer until they were completely unable to wake up.
Xia Zhijing is the complete opposite. She sleeps less and less.
"Is there a possibility that Xia Zhijing is actually like this, but she doesn't realize it herself? In other words?"
Lu Yuan sucked out the milk tea cup in his hand and made a "gurgling" sound, gently chewed the soft and waxy pearls, and thought to himself: "Xia Zhijing has been living in a dream for more than ten years."
This sentence is suspected of being a curse.
But it's not impossible.
When the ancient evil god is involved, even the most bizarre things may happen.
"Shall we wait until we see her in person to see what the situation is like?"
Lu Yuan threw the finished milk tea into the trash can not far away, and held the remaining cup for Xia Zhijing in the palm of his hand to keep it from getting cold.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and the sky became dark, like in the evening.
Lu Yuan looked at the time, nine forty-five.
The time he agreed with Xia Zhijing was ten o'clock, and there were still fifteen minutes before the meeting.
Lu Yuan continued to wait.
Looking at the raindrops falling on the street and the blinking traffic lights at the intersection, Lu Yuan couldn't help but think of the scene when he and Xia Zhijing met for the first time.
I remember that he had just unlocked the [Fighter] panel at that time, and had just learned some basic fighting skills, and his sense of justice couldn't help but overflow.
When I saw a suspected kidnapping case on the road, I rushed forward as soon as I got excited.
Fortunately, the people I met were all gangsters, and in the end I saved them by accident.
It was also that rescue that later gave me the opportunity to participate in the Crane Sect's personal assessment.
I have to say, looking back now, life is really amazing.
Lu Yuan thought casually.
Unknowingly, the time reached nine fifty-five.
Suddenly, his expression moved slightly and he turned his head to look to the right.
I saw a small round red umbrella slowly approaching from the end of the street.
There is a girl under the umbrella.
Because the umbrella was held relatively low, the girl's appearance could not be seen from afar.
Only the white down hem can be seen, black pantyhose wrapping the slender calves, and underneath is a pair of dark brown women's Martin boots.
The Martin boots landed on the water-logged pavement, making a crisp sound of treading water.
Lu Yuan blinked and began to walk towards the direction of the little red umbrella.
It's raining and snowing heavily now, and the weather is bad, so the girl under the little red umbrella has a very difficult time walking.
One foot is deep and the other is shallow. It seems that I will slip at any time.
Lu Yuan had the intention to go up and give her a hand, but he felt that his status seemed inappropriate, so he stood under the eaves of the shop closest to the girl and waited patiently.
The swaying little red umbrella arrived in front of Lu Yuan and stood still beside Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then handed over the milk tea that had been warmed for a long time.
"I bought it for you to warm your hands."
The girl under the little red umbrella said shyly "Yeah".
Then a white hand stretched out from under the umbrella and took the milk tea from Lu Yuan.
When handing the hand over, Lu Yuan accidentally touched the other person's finger. It was ice cold, probably because it was frozen on the way here.
"The Xia family is Jiaoyan's richest man. Why does Xia Zhijing not even have a driver to pick her up when she goes out? She has to walk out by herself."
Lu Yuan thought for a while and said to Xia Zhijing: "Let's find a warm place to sit down first."
"Um."
Lu Yuan didn't say anything, and planned to take Xia Zhijing to the previous milk tea shop.
Take two steps forward.
Stop far away and turn around.
He said with some hesitation: "Aren't you going to put the umbrella away?"
Until now, Xia Zhijing is still holding her little red umbrella.
Most of her body was hidden under the umbrella, and Lu Yuan could only see the part below her knees.
He knew that Xia Zhijing was introverted and even autistic to a certain extent.
But I didn't expect that the club would be like this.
This is too shy.
The little red umbrella stood still.
Finally, under Lu Yuan's slightly helpless gaze, a shy and nervous voice came from under the umbrella.
"I'm afraid that the way I look now scares you."
Lu Yuan was startled when he heard this, and the first reaction in his mind was - the power of the Nightmare Girl began to have more influence on Xia Zhijing?!
His expression was slightly condensed, but his tone was as slow as possible. He chuckled and shook his head: "How come you are the most beautiful girl among the girls I know?"
Before Lu Yuan finished speaking, the little red umbrella in front of him suddenly opened back.
A girl wearing white down and a red hairpin with her cheek facing down was revealed.
"Really?"
The girl murmured softly, then slowly raised her face towards Lu Yuan.
The moment I saw the girl’s appearance clearly.
Lu Yuan suffered a cardiac arrest and his pupils suddenly contracted.
I saw——
Under the carefully trimmed black bangs, a smooth and flat face without any facial features appears!
"Really?"
"Is what you said true?"
"Am I pretty?"
"do you like me?"
"Lu Yuan, please answer me quickly?"
A shrill female voice that was getting faster and faster kept ringing in Lu Yuan's ears.
Lu Yuan's eyes widened and he froze in place.
He heard the sound of rain falling in his ears, and he suddenly realized it.
The surrounding streets had become deserted at some point, and no one was seen anymore.
Not only that, the streets, trees, shops, and traffic lights on the road all turned gray.
The only thing left with color was the girl in front of him who kept asking him questions, and the little red umbrella that the girl was holding tightly in her hand.
Eye-catchingly bright red.
"Who are you?!"
Lu Yuan roared and punched forward fiercely.
But just when his fist was about to fall, he stopped abruptly.
no!
If the person in front of me is really Xia Zhijing, but she is only affected by the power of the Nightmare Girl, I may accidentally kill her with this punch.
"roll!"
Lu Yuan yelled at the girl with a ferocious expression.
The latter seemed to be frightened by Lu Yuan's move, and staggered back "thump thump thump", the Martin boots on his feet making messy footsteps.
But after a second.
The "frightened" faceless girl gently and deftly put the little red umbrella in her hand on her shoulder, tilted her head and started to rush toward Lu Yuan, letting out a "giggle" sound as clear as a silver bell.
"You like me! You really like me! Giggle"
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, a strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and then his fingers suddenly spread out and he grabbed forward fiercely.
"The elephant captures the dragon!"
Rich platinum Qi flowed from Lu Yuan's fingers, and with the push of his claws, twisting platinum ripples spread out in the air.
The terrifying grasping force grabbed a small fuzzy and sunken area in front of Lu Yuan.
The girl who was within the terrifying grasping range did not dodge, tilted her head and chuckled.
Then the whole person burst like a bubble and disappeared.
"Handsome guy! Handsome guy!"
Waves of calls brought Lu Yuan back to reality from his trance.
Lu Yuan suddenly came back to his senses, took a closer look, and found a female clerk wearing a mask and a uniform with the words "Xunwei Milk Tea Shop" on her body, looking at him with concern.
"The milk tea you ordered."
The female clerk handed the two cups of hot milk tea packaged on the counter to Lu Yuan, and asked casually: "Did you not sleep well last night?"
"Uh-huh."
Lu Yuan responded vaguely, picked up the two cups of milk tea in front of him, and walked quickly to the side.
"what happened?!"
Lu Yuan stood a few meters away from the milk tea shop, watching the rain and snow flakes gradually falling on the street in front of him, the expression on his face constantly changing.
"Was everything just a dream?"
Lu Yuan's eyes flickered, and he suddenly grabbed a cup of milk tea in his hand, roughly tore open the packaging on it, and poured it into his mouth in large gulps.
His bold gesture attracted curious glances from two passers-by who passed by him.
"GuluGulu——"
Lu Yuan swallowed the milk tea with big mouthfuls and chewed the pearls in it.
The texture, taste, and even the temperature are so familiar that they are no longer familiar.
Just ten minutes ago, he had clearly had a drink of exactly the same drink!
"It's not a dream. How can I feel the temperature and taste in a dream?"
Lu Yuan put down the milk tea cup and gently wiped away the remaining milk tea liquid from the corner of his mouth with a serious look on his face.
“But how can we explain all this if it’s not a dream?
What on earth did I just go through?"
Lu Yuan took out his mobile phone and quickly checked the chat history between himself and "Quiet Zhubao".
The last message came from 9:40, just before I was going to buy milk tea.
Xia Zhijing told him that she had already set off and was on her way.
Lu Yuan's eyes flashed rapidly as he quickly typed for "Quiet Zhubao".
But halfway through, all the content was deleted.
"call--"
He took a long breath, closed his eyes, and then opened them again.
His face had completely calmed down.
He didn't do anything else, just stood there and waited quietly as before, holding the cup of milk tea he bought for Xia Zhijing.
"Tick-tock-tick-"
The time came to nine fifty-five.
Lu Yuan turned his head and looked in one direction.
A familiar little red umbrella appeared in the field of vision.
Under the umbrella are dark brown women's Martin boots, with one deep foot and one shallow foot stepping on the water.
Lu Yuan walked quickly towards the direction of the red umbrella with an expressionless face.
Go faster and faster.
After taking a few breaths, I came to the red umbrella and suddenly opened it.
"ah!"
The girl under the umbrella was obviously frightened and looked at Lu Yuan in shock.
Red hairpin, straight bangs, big eyes, small face, delicate and delicate with a hint of natural shyness and cowardice
It’s Xia Zhijing!
"call--"
Lu Yuan's heart suddenly relaxed.
"you"
Lu Yuan calmed down his emotions and was about to explain softly.
However, at this moment, all the colors around him quickly faded away.
The world is like an oil painting washed by rain, constantly changing towards gray.
Xia Zhijing in front of her suddenly began to tremble, and tears filled her eyes.
She stretched out her hands, as if she wanted to come up and hug Lu Yuan.
However, the whole person was quickly shattered and annihilated like a bubble.
Lu Yuan subconsciously reached out to grab it, but he could only watch as Xia Zhijing completely disappeared in front of him, sadly and helplessly.
"Go quickly"
"Handsome guy! Handsome guy!"
In front of the counter of the milk tea shop, the female clerk called out one after another.
The young male customer slowly recovered from his daze.
"Your milk tea."
The female clerk handed two cups of freshly made hot milk tea to the boy.
"No more."
The latter shook his head in a difficult tone.
Turning around, his handsome face was filled with indescribably strong and complex colors.
