Chapter 19: Father and Son - The Lost Shoe

“He’s running back?”

"No more, no more!"

"I didn't expect that the anchor teammate didn't die, but he died first."

"A newcomer is a newcomer, and his speech is correct, but he is quite stupid."】

In just a few minutes, Zhuci ranked last in the technical area.

No one realized what he was going to do.

In fact, the girl's hint was given at the very beginning.

The little ghost can sense human fear, but she asked Zhuci directly, which was already a hint, especially since Zhuci was introduced by the boy playing the piano.

However, Zhuci was not clear that the little ghost could sense human emotions. He had a feeling, but he was not sure.

The almost perfect vines growing on the wall were discovered by Zhu Ci himself.

As the girl's body should be afraid of fire, the plants were not harmed.

The same is true for other plants, but this may be because he is in the girl's territory, isolated from other plants.

Even more contradictory is the difference between girls and roses.

On the girl's unrecognizable face, a pair of eyes followed Zhu Si as he ran across the sea of ​​fire. His feet must have been covered with marks, but his eyes did not show any fear of death, but were filled with determination.

What a stubborn and brave soul.

"You didn't die in the fire, did you?" he asked.

…

Zhu Ci successfully approached Rose.

He jumped onto the wall in two or three steps and sat on it.

Even if this wasn't the correct answer, he could still escape the flames by climbing the wall, but he couldn't leave.

Hearing his question, the girl raised her head and glanced at his feet.

The boy had already lost his extremely inappropriate pair of slippers, but there were burn marks on his feet, which even looked a bit serious.

Combined with his half crying face, it looked like he was crying in pain.

However, he seemed to have estimated the extent of his injuries and knew that he had no serious injuries.

"Don't you feel any pain?" the girl asked.

"It hurts." Zhu Ci said.

"Not beautiful anymore." said the girl.

Zhu Ci: "???" He looked down at his feet, then looked at the girl, and finally dismissed the absurd guess in his heart, and then said: "You are very beautiful."

The girl said, "You are like him. He turned out to be very handsome too."

Congratulations: "..."

"The man who plays the piano?"

[“I’ll go.”

“They started chatting.”

"The anchor climbed up the wall?"

"Wait, it turns out I'm shortsighted and stupid. How could I forget that I can still climb up the wall?"

"The walls were full of flammable materials, but the fire didn't spread up there."

"No, why are they chatting now? Didn't they agree to kill each other?"

"What did this little girl say was not beautiful? Could she be talking about the anchor's feet?"

"Ahem, this... All I can say is, don't play this game in slippers again, seriously."

"Pfft, why don't you wear slippers to play this game? It must be fun."】

…

"Yes, his name is Lin Yumo." Zhang Xiaowei said.

The surrounding flames slowly died down.

Zhu Ci was about to continue asking when a dagger suddenly flew towards Zhang Xiaowei.

Zhang Xiaowei turned her head away, with a fierce look in her eyes, and the man rushed towards them.

"Get down, run."

When Zhu Ci heard the voice, he found it was Fang Yu.

How come she is here?

Fang Yu regarded Zhang Xiaowei as his opponent and started to attack her.

【“Her talent has been upgraded.”

"Indeed, wow, the anchor brings good luck to his teammates."】

"It's all a misunderstanding. We are talking about something." Zhu Ci jumped down and intervened between them.

Fang Yu looked at his feet, puzzled: "It wasn't her who did it?"

"Yes, but I have passed the test." Zhu Ci looked at Zhang Xiaowei.

"Thank you. I'll come and play with you next time."

Zhang Xiaowei's expression gradually changed back, but a strange smile appeared on her lips: "I'm afraid the next time won't be tomorrow."

Zhu Ci looked at her thoughtfully.

"Come to me next time, I can help you a little."

After Zhang Xiaowei finished speaking, she disappeared, leaving only the roses on the wall as beautiful as ever.

【“Hahaha, the anchor’s teammates came to disturb us at an inappropriate time.”

"A newcomer who always turns danger into safety? Your imaginary speech was slapped in the face again? Just don't say anything."

"Well, I hope the anchor can contribute more to the scene. I just want to look at more vases to refresh my eyes."

"Vase? This shouldn't be considered a vase, right?"】

【Congratulations on your live broadcast room entering the top 300 in the technical area. 】

Zhuci looked at this teammate. He remembered that he had only walked a distance with her. How come she went from ignoring him at the beginning to being willing to fight ghosts for him now?

But she did just interrupt the speech's opportunity to gain information.

Lin Yumo, the format of other people's names is the surname plus "Xiao" plus a character, why is it that when it comes to this person, the format is different? Is it a coincidence?

"Is your foot okay?" Fang Yu asked.

"It hurts a little, but it's okay." Zhu Ci is not someone who likes to exaggerate his injuries, nor is he someone who likes to endure them in silence.

Fang Yu said: "I have potions. But I should be able to recover after I exit the game."

I glanced around the scene after giving the speech, but didn't see anything else.

Actually, this game is friendly to players who wear slippers, because they show no signs of falling off when they run.

It must have been burned by the flames just now.

So, will the system mall sell shoes?

Zhu Ci thought about it and opened the mall.

In the mall... we don’t sell clothes.

Congratulations: "..."

He fell silent.

Fang Yu saw that his face looked strange and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhu Ci shook his head: "Nothing."

He thought, how could there be no shoes in the manor? He decided to ask the housekeeper for a pair.

Thinking of this, his expression relaxed a lot.

If you walk barefoot, your feet will be rubbed raw.

If the people in the live broadcast room or Fang Yu knew his thoughts, they would probably be shocked.

Zhu Ci's feet were burned by the fire. He didn't care about the pain of the burns, but was worried about his feet being rubbed. Which of the two was more serious?

Zhu Ci and Fang Yu walked forward for a distance.

The boy walked absentmindedly, staring at the ground from time to time.

"Are you in pain?" Fang Yu asked him again.

"Um."

Zhu Ci responded with a hum, "Let me sit down and rest for a while." He found a place to sit next to the flower bed.

【“Pfft, I’m dying of laughter. Why does it seem like the anchor’s reaction is a bit slow? Are you feeling the pain now?”

"That's what I said. I felt that the anchor had delicate skin and tender flesh. Before entering the game, I could tell that she was raised in a pampered way. She definitely can't stand this hardship."

"But he didn't frown or cry even though he felt pain. He was crying so hard just now."

"Uh... I think... am I the only one who thinks so? Now the anchor looks more like a normal person, um, a normal person whose age matches his appearance."

"Pfft, the one in front, I can tell from that expressionless face that you feel wronged when you say that."】

When Fang Yu looked at him, she thought of Fang Yuan. She took out a bottle of medicine and gave it to him.

"This is used for healing. Try it. It should be useful."

Zhuci looked at her and asked, "Why give it to me?"

"Since we are in a game, we should help each other, right?"

Congratulations: "..."

He frowned, thought for a moment, and took the potion from Fang Yu.

For items that have not been recognized by their owners, the system can allow players to check their entries. After the system's detection, it was found that the potion that Fang Yu threw to Zhu Ci was indeed used for healing, and its grade was not low.

Zhu Ci poured the potion on his feet.

At that moment, he felt that he had difficulty breathing.

The potion worked very well, and it took effect much faster than real potions. He stood up quickly after applying it.

"Let's go."

He didn't want to stay where he was anymore.

Because it felt a little strange to be stared at while he was healing, even though he knew Fang Yu meant well.

This reminded him that he was still live streaming.

Tsk, I was wearing pink slippers before, but now I’m barefoot. It’s a bit weird that someone saw me from the angle I was sitting at just now.

Ugly and without image, he thought.

However, the live broadcast room was full of joy.

【“For some reason, I feel a sense of motherly love and filial piety.”

"It's so funny, the anchor must be shy."

"It's okay. Do you still need to feel ashamed when playing this kind of game? There are people who take off their clothes and run naked on the entertainment charts."

"It's not ugly, it's just not as pretty as before, hahaha."

"Miss the first day of bunny slippers."】

…

The four-person team on the other side was walking, but their progress was not much faster than the one giving the speech.

They passed many forks in the road and encountered many dangers, but after all, it was easier with four people than with one. Even if they encountered danger, they could rescue each other and get out quickly.

Before walking out of the maze, Li Hang was nervous, fearing that Zhu Ci would say his name again and replace him back.

However, when nothing happened after half an hour, he even thought that maybe Zhu Ci was dead, and Fang Yu must be dead too.

It's just two deaths, isn't it?

Xu An sneered at him as he walked: "Do you think Brother Ci is the same as you?"

"Didn't you go back to save him?" Li Hang asked sarcastically.

Xu thought to himself, "Because if I go back I will only hinder Brother Ci. Don't I know that?"

The few scattered comments on Li Hang's side were all "hahahaha".

Xu An has a very clear understanding of his own positioning.

Mo Anan looked at them. Actually, she wanted to go back to find Zhu Ci. After all, Zhu Ci had saved her. But she also knew her own abilities. Zhu Ci also said that if they encountered danger, they should just run away.

Mo Yangbing also told her not to go back in the live broadcast room.

She had been reminded in the live broadcast room that Mo Yangbing was about to violate the rules.

Mo Anan knew that her brother was worried about her, so she stopped taking risks. However, she believed in Zhu Ci from the bottom of her heart and believed that Zhu Ci would be fine.

When walking out of the maze, Xu An looked at the relaxed Li Hang, sneered again, and rolled his eyes.

Along the way, Li Hang tried his best to show that he was useful to the team. He would fight bravely even if he encountered a ghost. However, once he encountered a fatal situation, he played dumb.

Even the youngest, Mo Anan, would step forward.

However, he had been on the side of the congratulatory speech from the beginning, and Li Hang did not take his ridicule seriously.

"Looks like you're all out."

In the pavilion on the flowerbed in front, the giant baby was being fed by several maids.

Although it is a pavilion in the flowerbed, there are no flowers next to the pavilion.

Several players now feel uncomfortable when they see flowers, but they feel relaxed without them.

But they are working hard in there, while this young master is enjoying himself here. As teachers, they should feel heartbroken.

Among the current players, only Xu An thought so. He looked around to find someone who agreed with him, but after thinking about it, he realized that the speech had not come out yet. Everyone else regarded the giant baby as a boss who could not be offended, so how could they agree with his idea?

The giant baby sat up tremblingly and found that two of the four people were missing, and there was no speech. He squinted his eyes and could hardly see, but he was happy that he could see.

"It's about time."

The giant baby glanced at the butler.

"Yes, it's already five o'clock." said the butler.

This is the first time they are telling a story outside, and they always feel that there will be many pitfalls later.

The three people, except Li Hang, turned around and looked behind them. The fog had not yet dissipated and the congratulatory speech had not yet come out.
