Chapter 102 The So-called Loneliness
After Donald Duck fell tragically, Anson Deer breathed a sigh of relief, and the chess pieces dissipated one after another.
He thought that the reward for this copy should be quite high, as the prizes from several games were accumulated during the settlement process.
I should be able to make a fortune... Anson Lu was so sure in his heart. By the way, if his level was high enough to be promoted to a 'Second-level Old Chess Player', he would be able to draw an intermediate-level extraordinary chess package.
The legendary chess game is right in front of you!
Of course, for now, the combat capability of the floating shark is already superb enough.
Anson Deer's main focus is still on the crafting scroll. The only thing missing from the crafting of the "Christmas Sleigh" is a "lightning rod" and a deer chess piece.
If Lorenzo wins the bet, he will use official resources to help find the "lightning rod".
Besides, Lorenzo couldn't cheat.
Because for this world, the law enforcement team is in the light and the Hell Lighthouse is in the dark - the law enforcement team is directly under the official, and the public's impression of them will greatly affect their impression of the official.
Therefore, they cannot afford the influence of public opinion at all and can only be in a passive environment.
But, the Hell Lighthouse doesn’t matter at all.
They only have five miserable lives, and they have no direct contact with the authorities. No matter how bad the public opinion is, the worst that can happen is that they can use the travel coupons to change cities every day.
[The Hell Lighthouse and the Law Enforcement Team have successfully defeated the Boss - Violent Donald Duck. ]
[The third game was won by the "Hell Lighthouse" team. The current score is: Hell Lighthouse (3 points): Law Enforcement Team (0 points)]
"It seems that there is no need to compete." Anson Lu shrugged, "We are already three points ahead, and there is only one game left."
"Yes, this is a complete victory." Urushihara Ritsu said, "If this matter gets out, the reputation of the law enforcement team will be..."
"No." Anson Lu said, "Although they are a bit annoying, they are heroes protecting the world after all. As long as they don't interfere with us, they can do what they need to do and not affect each other."
"I think so too, Lu Jun. After all, this world is already chaotic enough. Their existence is the most direct ray of light that the public can see. They are irreplaceable."
Asuka Uesugi returned to her human form. She put one hand on her waist and interjected curiously:
"What about us, then?"
The person she was staring at was Anson Lu, and the person who answered her was Urushihara Ritsu.
"We are relatively free," Urushihara Ritsu said calmly, "We can be villains in the eyes of the public, or we can be monsters that are not understood by the public, but we can still shine for the world silently."
"Stop being so self-admiring and immature. I started this union just to give everyone some peace and quiet. After all, not everyone likes to obey other people's arrangements!" Anson Lu curled his lips.
"I see..." Chu Qimo wrote down the words in the notebook he carried with him, "It seems that the name 'Hell Lighthouse' should have been given by you, Mr. Crow, instead of the president."
"Yes." Urushihara Ritsu nodded.
An Senlu patted Chu Qimo's shoulder seriously and said, "The original case was called 'A Loving Family'. I suggest you put this name in your notebook as well."
Chu Qimo was stunned. "What a... simple name."
"If it was really called that, I would have quit the union long ago." Asuka Uesugi rubbed the Tianming acupoint as if she couldn't stand it, "No, I won't even join this union."
"Alas, only Teacher Chu can understand the simple and honest national style of us Chinese people." Anson Lu sighed, "You Japanese people should travel into the second dimension as soon as possible to live your fantasy life."
"Go away." Asuka said.
"So, where's the food?" Yuri asked.
As her emotionless voice fell, an equally emotionless system prompt sound rang in the ears of the five people.
[The cafeteria is being cleaned up. It will be finished in three seconds and will provide clean food to the players. ]
"The food is here." Anson Lu was happy.
"...Oh." Yuri said.
"Hungry?"
“Somewhat.”
Two seconds later, the entire cafeteria changed drastically.
It's ridiculously clean, just like a restaurant in Disneyland. The walls are framed with exquisite fairy-tale wallpaper, and the dishes at the food window are so sumptuous that they make you drool.
Cute Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck dolls were placed in a corner of the restaurant. Asuka Uesugi was startled at first, then she picked up a Donald Duck and pinched its beak.
Yuri looked around, as if looking for a Pikachu doll.
But this naive Icelandic girl didn't seem to know that Pikachu is a Nintendo IP character and has nothing to do with Disney.
"Oh my god, there's also Chinese food, braised chicken with rice!"
Anson Lu approached the vegetable window. He paused for two seconds and did not reach out for the spoon. It seemed that he was waiting for some resentful creature to approach first and pay the 5 evolution coins.
"Chinese food?" Chu Qimo walked closer.
Our simple-minded teacher Chu didn’t seem to notice what President Lu was thinking. He put his hand on his chin and approached the vegetable window with an expressionless face.
As a result, a panel for paying Evolution Coins pops up.
"Pay." Anson Lu felt guilty and paid the bill first.
[5 Evolution Coins have been deducted, your current Evolution Coin balance is ——1695 coins]
"Thank you, President, you are so generous." Chu Qimo said lightly.
He picked up the bowl and chopsticks, served himself a bowl of shredded potato fried rice, and walked to a clean dining table.
"You're welcome, you're welcome," Anson Lu curled his lips, "I wanted to pluck the crows, but now that I see it's you, I feel embarrassed."
Asuka Uesugi ordered an egg fried rice, Ritsu Urushihara ordered some sushi, and Yuri just ordered some French fries and a Coke. She ate very little and didn't fit in with the other four.
The Icelandic girl carried the food tray, glanced at the table where Chu Qimo, Urushihara Ritsu and Asuka were sitting, and then found a table to sit at by herself.
Anson Lu held the braised chicken rice in his hand and sat opposite her naturally. "Is that all you want to eat?"
"No appetite."
"oh."
"ski."
"Huh?" Anson Lu was about to swallow a mouthful of rice.
“I can’t ski without a travel voucher.”
Anson Lu was stunned. "That's true. After all, it doesn't snow in Shangshi City."
He thought that the last time Yuri came to New York to help him out, he did use up a travel voucher. This autistic girl was not like a crow. After using up a travel voucher, the crow would go find someone to trade with, but she could only keep it in her heart.
No wonder I’ve been playing handheld game consoles all this time.
"Now that this copy is over, I'll go skiing with you." Anson Lu put a piece of chicken into his mouth with a spoon.
Yuri hesitated for half a second and nodded slightly, "...Yeah."
“Where are you going skiing?”
"Hokkaido?"
"Okay," Anson Deer said, "Crow has a wide network of contacts and can get travel coupons everywhere. I can ask him for a few more travel coupons so that you can skate until you are happy."
"Two days will do."
"Then prepare four travel coupons, and I will accompany you to Hokkaido for two days to prevent you from being kidnapped by the officials."
"I'm not that weak." The Icelandic girl said coldly.
"Compared to this," Anson Lu held his chin and pointed at her with a spoon, "By the way, wouldn't it be a bit boring for you to stay in Shangshi?"
“There are game consoles.”
"Well, it's my fault for not taking care of you. No wonder you became an internet addict."
"Want to play a game together?"
"Let's go skiing first." Anson Lu shrugged, "Also, like I said, you don't have to have only me as your friend, they can all be friends. Crow is a bit bad, but Mr. Chu and Asuka are both good people."
"……good."
"I want to play a two-player game. I happen to have an old Xbox at home."
“…Minecraft?”
Anson Lu took a mouthful of rice, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay, let's play this."
"Thanks."
Anson Lu turned his head away and said, "We are friends. Don't thank me for such a small thing. You were also weird before, like that time at the ski resort."
"No one will look for me," the girl paused, raised her clear eyes, and her snow-white hair swayed gently, "and no one will ski... play games with me, so, thank you."
It was as if she was simply stating something that was a matter of course, and her tone was devoid of emotion.
Anson Deer was stunned for a moment.
He suddenly remembered that when Yuri played chess with him, he insisted on playing so many games even after losing - maybe it was not because he was competitive.
I just want to find someone to play games with.
How can a person be so lonely?
"It will be available in the future." Anson Lu took a bite of his rice and said calmly, "I can always be with you as a friend."
"Mr. Lu, how can you say such disgusting things while eating?" The faint voice of Urushihara Ritsu came, he came over with a tray and sat next to Anson Lu.
Anson Deer's scalp was numb, and his teeth bit the steel spoon fiercely. "Damn, I'm scared to death, bastard!"
"Wow, are you guys talking about something shameful?"
Asuka Uesugi frowned and placed the plate next to Yuri with curiosity.
"President, please remember to share anything you have." Chu Qimo held the dinner plate in one hand and took out a notebook and pen in the other, as if he didn't want to miss anything worth recording.
"You're crazy, aren't you? Get out of here, you bunch of gossipmongers." Anson Lu raised the spoon and cursed.
Yuri tilted his cold eyes, observed the boy's furry face with the corner of his eye, and quietly drank two sips of Coke.
"Let's be honest." Asuka said suddenly.
It took Yuri a while to realize that she was talking to him, "What?"
"Do you think this guy..." Asuka looked at Anson Lu with disdain, "is a bit schizophrenic?"
Yuri put his snow-white hand to his lips, and a barely visible smile flashed across his eyes.
"perhaps?"
"Ha, I think it's confirmed," Asuka Uesugi took a bite of fried rice and nodded affirmatively, "The contrast between the impression he gives people is really too great. One moment he is very reliable and careful, and the next moment he is like an idiot."
"Maybe, he is both of them..." Yuri turned his face away, "I don't understand."
"Please, understanding such people is just asking for trouble."
"I don't understand, but I want to try to understand." The white-haired girl put down the cup and paused. "It's the first time I have this thought."
"Oh..." After a second of silence, Asuka Uesugi bit the spoon and said sarcastically:
"Oh, then you better try your best. This guy is a bit crazy and is especially good at acting crazy. It's not easy to get close to him. Of course, you are not bad either."
