Chapter 749 [(*^▽^*)]
The construction site is surrounded by walls, so there's no need to worry about being seen. Besides, the surrounding buildings are all relatively low, and things haven't changed much yet.
He walked into the building in the middle of the construction site. The building was just a steel and concrete frame, without even walls. There was a lot of construction debris everywhere, and there were traces of homeless people who had stayed there.
Soon after Xue Rui arrived, another person appeared – Hua Jiao.
Huajiao looked at Xue Rui and blinked, "Boss, in this sweltering heat, I'm the only one willing to come out with you."
Xue Rui: "Stop talking nonsense and come here quickly."
Huajiao immediately became much more serious. "Alright, I'm coming!"
Xue Rui took out his phone and sent her some messages, "Read carefully, and remember to cooperate later."
Huajiao quickly nodded, "No problem, I know! The pairing will be seamless!"
Xue Rui put away his phone, took out his monitoring ball prop and released it. No one would see it here, making it easier for him to find targets.
Sichuan peppercorns: "Boss, I'm going to hide it first. You know where it is."
Xue Rui nodded. "Okay."
Huajiao flew away at lightning speed, disappearing from Xue Rui's sight in the blink of an eye. Most top players these days can match her speed, though Huajiao knew that her speed was no match for Xue Rui's.
Xue Rui walked forward slowly, seemingly completely unaware of being watched in the shadows, step by step walking into the trap that could kill him.
Just as he was about to step inside, a surveillance camera detected a very subtle change, which he noticed.
It's right there...
Xue Rui slowly lowered his foot, and just as he was about to land on the ground, he pulled his foot back. At that moment, he took out the Blood Shadow Gun from his backpack and fired two shots at the place where it was hiding. One of the shots hit the creature's body, and it let out a shocked and terrified scream.
He seemed shocked, wondering why the bullet could hurt him.
Because Xue Rui had taken the speed potion beforehand, the thing in the shadows was shocked and furious. At the moment he was injured, he quickly headed towards his destination. The thing in the shadows noticed this and became very alert. It endured the pain and retreated, but just then...
The peppercorn that had just hidden appeared right on the enemy's retreat route. It had no choice but to turn around again, but Xue Rui, who had been chasing it from another direction, was now standing in front of it.
Unable to dodge in time, the object crashed directly into Xue Rui, who then extended his hand, revealing his golden-plated evil-repelling bracelet on his wrist.
As soon as his palm touched the object, the inscription engraved on one of the beads of the Ke Xie bracelet suddenly bound the formless thing layer by layer, finally imprisoning him firmly inside the bead.
Snap.
After this invisible thing was imprisoned, something fell to the ground.
Xue Rui picked it up and examined it. It was indeed what the Bureau wanted. Hua Jiao leaned closer for a detailed look. "This is... a notebook the size of a palm?"
Xue Rui tried to open it, but quickly discovered that the book couldn't be opened and he had no idea what was inside. "Here you go."
Huajiao took it. "Don't worry, boss, I'll deliver it right away. You should go back now. People with partners are just different. When are you going to bring her over so we can meet her?"
"We never expected the boss to date an ordinary person. Could the one Feng Jia and Sheng Yang met in the dungeon be...?"
Xue Rui: "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Go."
Huajiao chuckled awkwardly, "Okay, okay, I got it, I'll go right away!"
Xue Rui took out his phone and sent a message to a certain number. The other party replied instantly, "Received!"
Huajiao quickly disappeared, and Xue Rui returned to the car. This book was actually a prop that a player brought out from a dungeon. After it was brought into the real world, it somehow became uncontrollable and ran away.
The Administration Bureau could have used ** to locate the object, but unfortunately, there are still not many copies of ** available.
Because of Xue Rui's presence here, the official supplies are prioritized for other places; if there are any problems here, people turn to Xue Rui.
Xue Rui's gun was frequently requisitioned. Of course, this didn't mean it was handed over directly to the Administration Bureau. Instead, the Administration Bureau would give him specific information, locate the gun, and then inform him of the location.
The task of capturing this item was assigned to him out of necessity; too many things had happened recently, and they didn't have enough people.
It was precisely because Xue Rui was a formidable player that the Administration entrusted him with this task with such confidence, though it wasn't for free.
Every contribution he made was recorded as points by the Administration Bureau. These points weren't given by the Endless World, but rather by an official points system created by the Bureau itself.
Once you have enough points, you can redeem replicas of some items from the official website. Although they are replicas, they are no different from the original items. The only difference is that the information you search for includes the words "replica".
Xue Rui had his eye on an item before, a one-time substitute death item. This item required a lot of points, and he had been secretly helping the Management Bureau recently in order to get more points.
Once Huajiao delivers this item, he'll definitely have enough points to get this one-time substitute item before the Super Star dungeon.
Even though it was only one more, he was already quite satisfied, after all... as long as one person survived...
Xue Rui got back into his car and immediately drove back. He had wasted at least twenty minutes at the construction site, and the drive back took about fifteen minutes. By the time he got home, it had taken him a total of fifty-five minutes.
He took off his coat and pants and threw them on the chair, then lay back on the bed and held Lin Leyou in his arms. A few minutes were enough for him to calm his racing heart and blood.
Lin Leyou was completely unaware of this matter, and was just chatting with Xue Rui about some trivial things while waiting for the dungeon to open. "It's almost been an hour, and I didn't expect that we wouldn't be able to wait for the dungeon this time."
Xue Rui: "It's okay, not now. We'll wait until tonight."
Lin Leyou realized the time had just arrived, so he lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and returned to the real world. The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was...
He reached out and touched Xue Rui's face. "Wait until tonight?"
Xue Rui, "Hmm."
Lin Leyou suddenly felt something was off. "What's going on? You were so anxious just now, why aren't you anxious at all now?"
Xue Rui gently pressed him down, "We have other things to do tonight, so how about we finish those things now?"
Lin Leyou blinked, then gave a knowing smile. "Oh... it's not impossible."
The two fooled around like this throughout the day until night. After taking a shower, not only Lin Leyou but even Xue Rui felt weak in the legs. Fortunately, they managed to get away with it.
He held Lin Leyou as they lay down on the bed. "Shall we go?"
Lin Leyou checked the time. "It's about time. I'll head over now."
This time, Xue Rui didn't have to wait too long; he successfully entered the Happy Community instance in just half an hour.
Looking at the pitch-black sky outside the window and hearing the system notification, Lin Leyou knew that the dungeon had started.
Have you entered the instance?
Xue Rui: "Enter the instance, now."
He had the key to the house and permission from Lin Leyou, the homeowner, so Xue Rui could come in on his own without Lin Leyou having to open the door.
Not long after, the sound of a key turning in the lock came from outside the door, and Xue Rui appeared in front of him.
Lin Leyou sat on the sofa watching him. Xue Rui gently closed the door, then put the key away. Instead of going to Lin Leyou's side immediately, he looked around the house.
Every detail in the house was arranged by the two of them. Before he officially moved in, the house was almost empty except for Lin Leyou's daily necessities.
Unlike now, it's full of life, especially the photos on the cabinets and hanging on the walls. There have been many more photos in the last two years, and some photos that I wasn't satisfied with have been replaced.
The replaced photos were not thrown away, but were put into an album so that they could often take them out to reminisce about their past adventures together.
Lin Leyou smiled as she watched him pick up the photo. "Is the photo prettier, or am I prettier?"
Xue Rui put down the photos. "They're all beautiful."
Lin Leyou: "Hmm? I think you're the prettiest."
Xue Rui paused slightly, "...They all look good."
Lin Leyou, "Hahahaha..."
Xue Rui paused for a moment, then put down the photo and went to draw the curtains on the balcony. Only then did Lin Leyou realize that she hadn't drawn the curtains.
If the lights are on and the curtains aren't drawn at night, won't people outside be able to see us?
Xue Rui went to check other places to make sure all the curtains were drawn before sitting down next to him. Lin Leyou immediately raised his hands in surrender, "It's my fault, it was my oversight..."
"This is no small matter..."
Lin Leyou snuggled closer to him. "Don't be angry. I just... my mind was still stuck in the daytime, and I didn't react for a moment."
Xue Rui hugged the limp Lin Leyou helplessly. Although Lin Leyou's body in the Endless World did not have the same feeling as her body in the real world, the mental pleasure could indeed be brought over.
He picked Lin Leyou up and placed him on the sofa, telling him to lie down. "You haven't had dinner yet. There should be some ingredients in the kitchen. I'll go make something to eat. You rest."
Lin Leyou stretched on the sofa and said, "Okay, I want to eat noodles. Cook the noodles quickly."
If we cook the food quickly, we can eat it quickly too.
After all, they hadn't eaten dinner and had been exercising for so long, they were exhausted.
Lin Leyou lay on the sofa watching Xue Rui busy in the kitchen, unable to suppress the smile on his face. He casually pulled out the phone from the sofa, picked it up and took a look.
Huh? This is... a message from Hua Yun'an?
