Chapter 166 (Full Repair)
Ji Wan stared blankly at the air in front of her. She heard Yun Mian's voice, but it seemed that she couldn't make out the content at all. Everything she saw and heard became blurry and stained with bloodstains. The whole world became bizarre and breathtaking.
Yun Mian raised her hand and touched her sister's forehead, frowned a little worriedly, reached out and hugged her gently, stood on tiptoe and put her hand against her tear-soaked cheek, and accompanied her in silence without saying anything else.
Adults always get stuck in strange circles and can't get out.
Yunmian, a little kid, wasn't strong enough to pull them out of the circle, nor was he smart enough to lead them to find the most correct route.
So she could only sit outside the circle and wait, using her voice and hugs to tell the people in the circle: Don't be afraid, don't be anxious, I will be with you and wait for you to come out.
After returning to the rescue point, there were many more survivors than before.
Yun Mian held the hand of her mother, and then held the hand of Ji Wan, who was in a daze. The three of them bypassed the crowded crowd and went to another entrance for virus testing.
Zhang Ling sent them here and noticed Ji Wan's dazed mood. He sighed secretly, but he really didn't know how to comfort people, so he could only ask Yun Jinshu to take better care of Ji Wan.
Yun Mian sat with Ji Wan on a bench in the mall for people to rest. She held her sister's hand and looked up at her mother who was walking towards them.
"Mom~" Yunmian called out obediently, and then said dejectedly: "My sister seemed to be frightened and shed a lot of tears."
She was an emotionally sensitive child. After sensing that sister Ji Wan had woken up, she actually felt like crying but couldn't.
Yunmian didn’t actually want to cry, but when she saw her sister crying, her tears became a little uncontrollable.
Yun Jinshu knew her daughter well. Seeing her like this, she touched her head and praised her softly, "Mianmian has accompanied me all the way. That's great and impressive. I'm proud of you."
Hearing this, Yun Mian shyly curved her eyes, and the twinkling light in her eyes slowly dissipated. She breathed a sigh of relief, then sat aside and listened to her mother and sister Ji Wan chatting.
"You don't have to feel too guilty." Yun Jinshu also held Ji Wan's other cold and trembling hand.
Hearing her voice, Ji Wan's scattered gaze gradually focused, and his scattered thoughts were gradually pulled back as if by a string.
Then, all the guilt, self-blame, and pain were pulled back in an instant, pressing against her heart, filling her up to the point where she could hardly breathe.
She looked at Yun Jinshu, opened her mouth, and said in a hoarse voice: "I... didn't let go on purpose..."
"I know."
Yun Jinshu repeated in a gentle voice while she was stunned: "I know you didn't mean it. It was just a sudden accident. We don't blame you, and you shouldn't blame yourself either."
Ji Wan looked at her silently, tears still hidden in his red and swollen eyes, but he still raised his head stubbornly, looking at Yun Jinshu without blinking.
Just because she said: I know you didn't mean it.
Yunmian looked at her mother, then tilted her head to look at her sister, and seemed to understand something vaguely.
So she held her sister's face in her hands, asked her to look at her, and said softly: "Sister, don't be sad, it was the little sister who wanted to run over by herself. She ran so fast, and I couldn't save her, and neither could my two uncles."
It was not the elder sister's mistake alone. It was the younger sister who bit her hand and made it bleed. It was the younger sister who first attacked and ran towards her mother. How could the elder sister always think it was her fault?
Yunmian's friend Ji Wan spoke for a long time with a limp face, and finally concluded with a puffed face: "We are both right! Otherwise, no one would save us in the future!"
This situation wouldn't have happened if we hadn't rescued anyone in the first place!
Ji Wan: "..."
She listened to Yun Mian's firm and resolute words and felt a little confused for a moment.
Can we still reverse the logic in this way?
Yun Jinshu patted his daughter's head helplessly, without correcting the child's weird yet inexplicably reasonable worldview.
People should not live with guilt for the rest of their lives.
Maybe she was just a heartless person, or maybe such a thing had never happened to her. In any case, if Yun Jinshu was in Ji Wan's position, she would at most feel shocked and complicated, but she would never let guilt torture her.
It was getting hotter outside, and more and more people gathered in the mall.
Ji Wan's classmates came back to rest, all sweaty. Several students sat down on the cold floor and sighed in comfort.
"Great! It's finally cooler. I thought I would die of heat under the sun."
"Huh... When will this summer end? I feel like my hair is smoking and about to burn!"
"That's nothing. I took a sip of water and it made a crackling sound. I was so scared that I thought I was putting out a fire."
"Fuck Xiao Si, don't be so exaggerated. Can you compare yourself to someone like that?"
"Really? Look, I'm completely sunburned! If my parents saw me now, they wouldn't recognize me."
The boys still had the energy to complain about the heat, but the girls were already sitting around in a circle, looking listless, with hollow looks in their eyes as if their souls had left their bodies.
Ji Wan used the fan she found to fan them to cool down, but Du Qing noticed her red and swollen eyes. While everyone was in a daze, she held Ji Wan's arm and prepared to ask her what was wrong.
As a result, as soon as he grasped it, he heard Ji Wan gasp in pain, and his hand subconsciously twitched and retracted.
Du Qing looked at the teeth marks on Ji Wan's hand and his face darkened: "What happened? Who bit you? A zombie? Or did someone bully you?"
Ji Wan pulled his hand out of hers and hid it behind his back. He forced a smile and shook his head at Du Qing, whispering: "It's okay, I bit it myself."
Du Qing put aside his worry that Ji Wan was bitten by a zombie, and said in a deep voice: "Are you fucking crazy to bite yourself? Tell me honestly what happened? Don't be afraid, just tell us. We have so many classmates, are you afraid that we can't support you?"
Ji Wan's smile faded little by little. She subconsciously clenched her fingertips and shook her head at her friend with a pale face, pleading: "Xiao Qing... don't ask, no one bullied me, I was the one who made the mistake first..."
Du Qing rarely saw her like this. He frowned and took her away from the others. He asked in a low voice: "What happened? Did you get into trouble? Tell me first, and I will definitely find a way to help you. It's always better for two people to find a solution together than for one person to bear it alone."
Yun Mian held up her chin and listened to their quiet conversation, but her eyes were fixed on the ball of light floating motionlessly in the air.
"Uncle, what are you looking at?" She couldn't help but be curious.
The system froze, and after a moment, a light screen unfolded, and the person muttered in confusion: "Nothing, maybe there is a bug in the mission calculation core?"
Yunmian: "Mynah bird?"
System: "Bug, just like you are sick, there may be something wrong with my main brain."
Yun Mian opened her eyes slightly and said, "Sick? Uncle, do you want to take medicine or get an injection? Or should I go find a doctor to help you?"
System: "...Thank you, no thanks, I'm not really sick, I don't need to take medicine or injections."
So put away that little bit of excitement and eagerness in your tone.
"Okay..." Yun Mian continued to hold up her face, but her eyes were still fixed on the light screen in front of her.
Seeing her curiosity, the system explained: "These two long bars are your task progress bars. The top one is the main task, and the bottom one is the side task."
The main quest "Stop the protagonist's saintly behavior" which had been full all along suddenly dropped to single digits, with only a short "7".
As for the side quest "Collecting the Life-Level Space Container", it has had its ups and downs. From the time Yun Mian returned the jade pendant to Ji Wan until now, it has been an unshakable 0.
"Logically speaking, as Ji Wan is the protagonist and has not been possessed by the succubus, the progress bar of the main quest should remain at 0. Why did it suddenly change so much?"
The system squatted on Yunmian's head and jumped around, but after thinking for a long time, it still couldn't figure it out.
Instead, Yunmian's head was hit so loudly that it seemed as if the child's head was filled with paste.
Dizzy, Yunmian frowned and said slowly: "Because my sister didn't do good things in the past."
The system's jumping suddenly froze.
What's the meaning! ?
Yunmian reached out and grabbed the light ball that had finally stopped, then held up her chubby chin and said naturally:
"My elder sister was not kind enough to save people before, so she didn't harm anyone. My elder sister saved someone this morning, and then the little sister died."
Isn't this hard to understand?
Isn't it the same as what Uncle System said about the previous life? Saving people and then harming others... If you don't save people, then you won't harm them!
Uncle is so stupid.
Yunmian's slow words made the system feel like it was falling into an ice cellar.
After a long while, it began to mechanically mutter to itself, "So, the misfortunes were not caused by the succubus that possessed my body?"
Yun Mian didn’t know and couldn’t give an answer. She just tilted her head and stared at Sister Ji Wan with curiosity and amazement.
It's so magical, it turns out that doing good things will eventually turn into a lot of bad things.
So...if you do something bad, will it turn into something good in the end?
A lot of strange things popped up in Yunmian's head, which made her a little excited. She even couldn't wait to drag her sister to try it out.
No wonder she felt that her sister was so weak, pitiful and in need of protection as soon as she saw her sister!
When the system crashed and Yun Mian's mind was full of wild and unreliable ideas, Ji Wan told Du Qing the whole story.
Finally, she suppressed the emotions surging in her heart, avoided Du Qing's gaze, and only lowered her head and stammered: "Do you... also think that I shouldn't let go?"
She asked, but heard no answer. Instead, there was a long silence that made her heart tighten and sink.
Ji Wan was almost suffocated in the silence. She pinched her fingertips in embarrassment, lowered her head, and tried to explain something in a panic.
But her explanations were interrupted by Du Qing's complicated sigh.
"It's not your fault."
Du Qing said this.
Ji Wan looked up in surprise, but happened to meet his friend's distressed, sympathetic and extremely complicated gaze.
For some reason, the moment she met Du Qing's eyes, her scalp tingled and she stood still, her heart beating violently with a tense feeling of uneasiness.
It seemed as if something that was difficult to accept or even extremely resisted was about to be exposed nakedly in front of her eyes.
I stayed up all night and rewrote two chapters. There is one chapter left but I can't go on any longer. I'll write it when I wake up.
