Chapter 144: Confrontation and Delaying Tactics
Ye Xuan knew something was wrong just by instinct, but now with Xiaomi in front of him and someone unknown behind him, he was in a difficult situation.
To his surprise, Xiaomi looked past him and saw the person who pushed the door, with a look of gloating on his face.
He really wanted to shout "Who is coming?", but he knew it was not appropriate to do so.
It’s better to pretend that you don’t know for now. Whether the door is closed or not actually depends on the other person’s quality.
Now, apart from the fact that the man ignored his words and insisted on walking in, there was another possibility.
That means the other party has already left, but just didn't close the door.
If that's all, then he has to accept it.
However, after being in a stalemate with Xiaomi for such a long time, even the person who opened the door couldn't break the deadlock. They were really too patient.
Listening to the footsteps getting closer, Ye Xing could no longer deceive himself.
Well, the second possibility is not true, the person just walked in.
"Hello Uncle Ou, I am Xiao Ou's good friend Xiaomi, you still remember me, right?" Xiaomi suddenly turned her face to the side, and the words she said startled the real NPC.
The visitor stopped walking and spoke less than two steps behind the stunned man: "Of course I remember. You and Xiao Ou have been good friends since childhood."
Finished, showed up early.
When Ye Xuan realized that the man should be Xiao Ou's father, he became even more panicked.
Are all games this exciting?
No wonder their company prohibits heart patients from playing games. It would be a medical miracle if they didn't get sick after playing this game.
He originally thought that supporting characters like Xiao Ou's parents and brothers, who were the protagonist's family members, would only appear in the protagonist's home.
Now he found that his idea was totally wrong, these characters can also go out.
For example, now, I walked behind him.
There is a feeling that there is a ghost behind me.
At a time like this, should I turn around?
He glanced at Xiaomi, who was smiling obediently, and thought it would be better for him to turn away.
At least it won't be worse than facing the person in front of me, right?
But when he turned around, he realized that he was careless.
Although Xiao Ou's father's name is derived from Xiao Ou's name, "Ou Ba", he does not look like Xiao Ou at all.
He looked at the sturdy man who was as tall as an iron tower and almost two meters tall, and took half a step back.
Well, he shouldn't laugh at the other person's character name because its pronunciation doesn't match his personality.
Although the inconsistency is true, if he really shows dissatisfaction, he will definitely be beaten.
Absolutely. This man is so murderous, and he lives next to a family that can raise lawless criminals like Xiaomi and Al. He doesn't believe that he doesn't have many lives on his hands.
"Um, um," he stammered, "is there anything you want to consult?"
Wait, he is not at his workstation now, so there is no need to ask this.
He is not like Dr. Wang who wears a badge at all times to prove his identity. Only people who have seen him standing behind the consultation desk know that he is a front desk consultant.
The words he said without thinking were tantamount to self-destruction.
It’s over. It’s over.
It's all over now.
This game has archive files, right?
How about we read the file together?
The real NPCs who had never played the game began to have wild thoughts.
In fact, how could this kind of holographic online game give you the opportunity to load the saved game? There is no such thing as being able to choose the saved game yourself.
"I do have something I want to consult." Ou Ba said in a low voice.
Xiaomi took two steps and took the initiative to stand on the same front with Uncle Ou.
Looking at the "enemies" whose number has doubled, Xing felt like crying but had no tears.
It would have been better for us to form an alliance with Xiaomi just now. After the situation became so tense, the other side came to reinforce, but we were still isolated and helpless.
He glanced into the inner room and thought that his colleague was still in a coma, so he felt that he was wrong.
You are not alone.
He was here to help.
My teammates can no longer be relied upon, and even Doctor Wang’s safety is still unknown.
As for Xiao Ou, he was thankful that the kid was able to save himself, and he didn't expect the students to rescue him.
He thought of his temporary ally Al, but he couldn't call him.
If that Alpha comes, it will be all over.
The most important point in their plan is that Al cannot meet Xiaoou's family until the matter is completely resolved.
If he met him now, Xiao Ou's father might invite this son-in-law whom he had high hopes for to his home for dinner.
That way, they would have the opportunity to test Al and Xiaoou's pheromone compatibility on the spot.
Once the test results come out, all the previous tricks will be exposed, and those involved in this matter will definitely be in danger.
He actually didn't know much about the Al family and Xiaoou's family, but his family background was probably terrifyingly powerful.
Although the equal rights organization he belongs to is quite powerful, it is hard to say whether it will take huge risks to protect him.
When I was in school, the class would occasionally show movies for the students to watch together.
In some stories, those seemingly powerful organizations will choose to abandon their members after weighing the pros and cons.
For most of them, that's the right trade-off, and whoever is in that position has to make that decision.
But in the eyes of some people, it is the pain that accompanies the entire film.
When he saw this kind of scene, he would feel regretful and unwilling.
However, such a decision did save the majority of people and rescue more members.
If the organization abandons him and pretends nothing happened, will he sacrifice himself voluntarily?
He won't.
Ye Xuan has self-knowledge, but he does not have that awareness.
Even if this is just a game and he is not even a player but a real NPC, he doesn't have that awareness.
It is better to stay alive. He respects the martyrs, but does not want to die heroically.
There must be a better solution, it's just a marriage.
Damn it, ruining a marriage is harder than demolishing ten temples!
He just didn't understand. In a plot copy with a modern setting, is it so difficult to let children fall in love freely?
Is this difficulty for their marriage or for him?
It seems to be making things difficult for the parents and the children, but in fact it is making things difficult for him, right?
He had never personally experienced arranged marriage, so it was hard for him to judge.
However, he doesn't want people to achieve their goals by hurting their own bodies when they encounter a similar situation as Xiao Ou.
His first meeting with Xiao Ou originated from a real consultation.
Instead of the other party’s father’s unclear questioning now.
At that time, Xiao Ou came to ask about gland removal surgery.
A surgery that sounds only a little painful, but actually can ruin a person's life in this worldview, was asked by a college student.
Xiao Ou's idea was very simple. He felt that he wanted to marry Al purely because he was an Omega and the other was an Alpha, and they had known each other since childhood and were well matched. In the eyes of their family, it was a perfect match.
But he didn't like Al, he even hated him, to the extent that he would rather make himself disabled for life than marry him.
Yes, disabled. In the context of this map, an Omega who has lost his gland is undoubtedly disabled.
Paying such a heavy price just to reject a marriage.
As an outsider, I cannot judge whether this is worth it.
But as Xiao Ou's recognized "life mentor", he has the responsibility to help him embark on a better path.
There are countless similar cases in this medical institution.
It is quite common to see people who choose to abandon their Omega identity in order to resist the "traditional" AO matching.
They are either extremely disappointed with Alpha, or they want to spend their lives with an Omega.
These starting points are actually not wrong, but the methods they choose are a bit extreme.
It is no exaggeration to say that this operation is a life-threatening one.
And even if it's not that dangerous, there's no need to hurt yourself for the sake of marriage and love.
Oh, this is not considered self-harm. If there was no doctor watching, it would probably be suicide.
It is common for patients to suffer so much pain during surgery that they want to die.
Ye Xuan had previously asked his colleagues in medical institutions about this, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became.
He himself has never thought about falling in love and getting married. He feels that he can live happily alone for the rest of his life.
What's more, the source of some people's misfortune is some failed romances and tragic marriages.
In fact, as long as you are happy, it is better to live the life you choose.
He agreed with Xiao Ou's desire to choose the path without Al.
However, there are different means of transportation on the same road.
He was a man who had even ridden in a real carriage pulled by horses, and he felt that whether the road was smooth or not had a lot to do with the means of transportation.
Some people buy a cruise ship, but don't take the cruise, and then complain about why the ship can't move on land.
In fact, the thing that can't be moved is probably this person's brain.
As for the same means of transportation that can be used on land, there is naturally a huge difference between a sports car and a tricycle, not to mention those who ride a unicycle in circles.
In the eyes of others, he is just a clown that escaped from the circus.
If you want to refuse a marriage, there are more decent ways to do it, instead of crying, making a fuss, or even threatening to commit suicide.
There is no need to tie up the person you are planning to marry, or put a knife to his or her neck to fight to the death. This is to get you married, not a ghost marriage.
Similarly, Xiao Ou could actually choose to go down this path without having his gland removed.
And as a real NPC, I will naturally help him.
After all, the other party is the protagonist, and he is just the protagonist's assistant. He has to do what he should do.
This is his job, and it is also his responsibility. He will not easily compromise no matter who tries to stop him.
Not to mention Xiao Ou's father, even if his ancestors for eighteen generations were standing here, he would not back down.
Instead, they would find a zombie Taoist to come and seal the other person back into the coffin.
After preparing himself mentally, Ye Xuan also became tougher and dared to look directly at the two people opposite him.
It’s better to delay as much as possible. Maybe after a while, your colleagues will wake up.
