Chapter 134 Daily Life (Twenty-one)
When leaving the Life Science Museum, Mu Yu's mood was completely different from an hour ago. He felt like he was on a roller coaster and was a little dizzy.
Lu Chongnian is now in a state similar to that of a ghost, and his connection with this world has always been vague.
Mu Yu had to hold his hand all the time and confirm his presence from time to time to ensure that he stayed close to her.
It may look a little weird in the eyes of outsiders, but Mu Yu doesn't care.
They led Lu Zhongnian to the car and confirmed that he was in the car. Mu Chenxi started the car, drove forward ten meters, and asked, "Is he still there?"
Mu Yu called out to the air beside him uncertainly: "...Lu Chongnian?"
A few seconds later, he felt a tap on the shoulder and heard a faint sigh.
"...It seems that it won't work," Mu Yu's mouth twitched, "Then brother, I still won't go back with you. I'll walk back to school with him."
"What time is it now? Do you want the dorm aunt to open the door for you in the middle of the night?" Mu Chenxi asked, "Is there a hotel nearby?"
“It seems there is a hotel!”
"Then you can spend the night there and go back to school tomorrow."
"Okay," Mu Yu said quickly, "Brother...thank you."
Mu Chenxi snorted and waved his hand, signaling them to get out of the car if they were fine.
In the darkness of the night, the car drove away quickly, leaving Mu Yu and Lu Chongnian behind.
Mu Yu took a deep breath and stretched out his hand: "... Lu Zhongnian, let's go!"
*
There are indeed some small hotels between the Medical University and the University of Science and Technology, which are usually frequented by young couples.
Mu Yu went to check into a room alone, and the receptionist looked at him a few times.
The room was quite tidy. After Mu Yu entered, he felt that Lu Zhongnian wanted to raise his hand.
He quickly spread out his palm, and Lu Zhongnian wrote on it:
【Did you not buy a change of underwear? 】
Mu Yu's ears turned red, and then he asked a question that was beyond his IQ: "Is it impossible to take a shower there?"
Lu Zhongnian drew a silent period in the palm of his hand.
"Well, I'll go to the convenience store downstairs to buy some. You wait here for me. There's a bed in the back. Feel around and you can rest for a while."
…
It was not until this moment that Mu Yu felt hungry.
I went to the convenience store to buy some good things, came back, ate my lunch box, took a shower, and lay down on the bed. It was already 8 o'clock in the evening.
In winter, the air conditioner is turned on very high and the heating is supplied continuously, so that the hands and feet that have become stiff due to the cold on the road can slowly recover the temperature.
Mu Yu didn't turn on the TV, which hadn't been turned on for who knows how long, nor did he play with his cell phone. He just lay straight on the bed.
He could feel Lu Chongnian lying quietly beside him, and this feeling vaguely reminded him of the night of the class reunion.
"Lu Chongnian, are you hungry over there?" He turned his head and asked softly to the person beside him.
【Won't. 】
"Then wouldn't it feel a bit strange lying in the fog?"
[If you close your eyes, there is no difference from what you feel. 】
Mu Yu couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.
After nearly four months, he was finally able to have a good conversation with Lu Zhongnian outside of the dungeon - but was this considered "good"? It didn't seem to be.
They both have had a lot of misfortunes.
He turned over and lay on his side, muttering to the air beside him: "I was thinking, now in your world, you should have become a shell, right? If you can hold on until the next copy, and the next copy also chooses you, will the shell follow you into the copy?"
"What will happen then? Will you become one with your skin, or?"
【We will know only when that time comes.】
[I can’t figure it out now. ]
"Indeed." Mu Yu was silent for a while.
He bent his fingers, and in the illusory touch, slowly inserted them into Lu Chongnian's fingers, interlocking theirs.
He felt Lu Zhongnian holding his hand tightly, and then wrote on the back of his hand with his other hand.
[End of the copy]
He paused, as if weighing his words.
Finally, just write down two simple words.
【Does it hurt? 】
Mu Yu whispered, "To be honest, I almost don't remember how I felt physically at that time. As long as you can come back, I feel good."
【sorry. 】
"Why are you apologizing to me? It's not your fault!"
The vague touch rubbed his head.
Mu Yu moved forward, as if he could rest his forehead on Lu Zhongnian's shoulder.
He was silent for a while, then asked, "Lu Chongnian, is the misty world the same as you once imagined?"
It seemed as if I could feel Lu Chongnian pause.
When this issue was mentioned again after such a long time, Mu Yu's mood was completely different from before.
At this moment, he just wanted to chat with Lu Chongnian.
【It’s more boring than I thought.】
After getting this answer, Mu Yu laughed.
[In fact, from the moment I met you again in the first dungeon, I have always felt a sense of disconnection. ]
[I know what kind of person I am, but when it comes time to make a choice, my instincts are always different from what I should think.]
"for example?"
[For example, in the prop area of the first instance, when the monster invited us to enter the water tank. ]
[I know that even you would choose the plan we had at that time out of rational considerations. I can discuss it with you.]
【But at that time】
Lu Zhongnian paused for a moment and wrote:
【I just want to protect you. 】
[So I made that choice without much thought.]
Mu Yu's heart moved slightly.
[Also, about the fog. ]
[Many times, I really don’t care much about life and death. ]
[But when I face you, I feel that life is very important. ]
"So when you said you wanted to go into the fog and take a look, you really didn't consider that you would die, and you didn't care. It was only when you faced me later that your thoughts changed to that you just didn't like the feeling of being passive." Mu Yu said affirmatively.
Lu Zhongnian was silent for a moment and replied:
【yes. 】
【But both are my true thoughts. 】
[Are you still angry now? ]
"Of course not," Mu Yu said softly, "As long as it's what you really think, I won't be angry. And by now, you should have sorted out your thoughts, right?"
He felt his hair being lifted.
Written on the palm: [Yes.]
【It’s better to live with you. 】
Mu Yu laughed.
He raised his clasped hands and rubbed the back of Lu Chongnian's illusory hand.
"It would be nice if we could live in peace forever..."
*
The atmosphere in the group has been very tense these days.
No one dared to talk about Lu Chongnian's matter openly, for fear that Mu Yu would be sad if she saw it. They always discussed other issues in the group.
Su Mingyun: "By the way, don't you think the reflected world is spinning faster and faster?"
Li Ke: "Well, it's only about 20 degrees away from the overlap. I feel we'll be there in a few days..."
Su Mingyun: “[scream.jpg]”
Jing Qiao: "I wonder if the next copy will be the last copy..."
Fu Xiaoju: "I just glanced at the calendar. It's New Year's Day in eight days."
Jing Qiao: "Yes, according to the frequency of previous dungeons, the next dungeon will most likely appear around New Year's Day, but it's hard to say now..."
Mu Yu: "I'll get rid of him completely on the first day of the new year. Isn't it uncomfortable to be comfortable every day from now on [drinking tea.jpg]"
Fu Xiaoju: “?”
Jiang Shuyue: “?”
Hong Yang: “?”
Hong Yang: "@Muyu...are you okay?"
Mu Yu: "I don't know whether to say yes or no [falling into deep thought.jpg]"
Hong Yang: "? You seem to be in a good mood, what's going on, any good news?"
Hong Yang: "Lu Chongnian is alive again?"
Mu Yu: "...He has never died..."
Fu Xiaoju: "Fuck, what's going on? What's going on with Brother Lu now?"
Mu Yu: "I'm fine."
Mu Yu: "This is what Lu Zhongnian just asked me to post for him =v="
The group was immediately flooded with question marks and exclamation marks.
Half an hour later, Fu Xiaoju rushed to Mu Yu's classroom from a classroom in the school and personally "interrogated" Mu Yu under the suspicious and vigilant gazes of other classmates.
Mu Yu’s “ghost husband” was exposed.
——Lu Chongnian was actually right next to them!
——The foggy world is actually very close to their real world and can be connected to them!
This was truly bombshell news. Zhang Huawei and Wang Hao were both excited. After all, Shen Leng and Xu Jin were also in the misty world.
However, they became disappointed when they learned that the players would be dissolved if they did not find a way out within a certain period of time.
In fact, the biggest reason why Lu Chongnian was able to come back was that he wanted to come back and he still had his own will.
Without either of them, “finding the way back” will be impossible.
Jiang Shuyue said in the group: "So the question now is how he is going to get out when the next instance opens, right?"
Mu Yu: "I thought so originally, but now I think his biggest difficulty is that he must set out immediately after the sign of the next dungeon appears, otherwise he may not be able to arrive in time by walking..."
Everyone:"…………"
The “covering face” emoji was all over the screen.
Lu Chongnian, such a handsome guy, seems to have returned to the primitive society. He can't even use a means of transportation. He can only walk or run to reach his destination. It's miserable enough to think about it.
In the next few days, everyone was discussing where the next copy might take place.
Jiang Shuyue counts everyone's "hunches" every day, and everyone makes sufficient preparations every day.
The days go by.
Because she was with Lu Chongnian, Mu Yu did not live in the dormitory during this period. Instead, she booked a room in a hotel next to the Polytechnic Institute.
The boss teased Mu Yu whether he had a girlfriend, but it was too much to book a room in a hotel for a long time.
Mu Yu just smiled mysteriously, leaving behind his roommates who were excited by his stimulation.
Lu Chongnian would go to school with him every day, occasionally attend classes with him, and occasionally take a walk around the mathematics classroom of their school - fortunately this guy has a good memory and can remember all the routes he has walked with his eyes closed. If it were someone else, they would definitely get lost.
The weather is getting colder.
On December 31st, the temperature dropped to minus ten degrees Celsius.
For this southern city, this temperature is enough to kill a bunch of cold-fearing people.
In the group.
Su Mingyun: "The weather forecast said it would snow today, but where is it snowing?! I've been waiting for a whole day!"
Jiang Shuyue: "My weather forecast shows that it will snow at 11pm [laughing and crying]"
Jing Qiao: "By the way, are you guys going out tonight to celebrate New Year's Eve?"
Jiang Shuyue: "Where are we going to celebrate the New Year? Many people seem to be planning to go to the city. Are you going too?"
Jing Qiao: “I haven’t thought about it yet.”
Jiang Shuyue: "During this period, the library of our school is open all night every day. I am thinking about whether to go to the library to celebrate the New Year."
Fu Xiaoju: "You... forget it."
Zhang Huawei: "You... forget it."
Jiang Shuyue: "What's wrong?"
Su Mingyun: "To be honest, I suddenly want to go to Lotus University tonight. Is there anyone who feels the same way as me?"
Hong Yang: “I have one too.”
Gao Zhanyuan: "Me too. Damn, I was just wondering why I was going to Lian University. What a weird idea."
The group was silent for a few seconds.
Mu Yu popped up: "So, it's Lian Da this time?"
