Chapter 287 Sleeping Together
Although they felt something was amiss, Ace's concerns were not unfounded, and everyone eventually adopted his advice and reallocated the rooms.
After Budno became smaller, he jumped up and down on the bed.
"I want to sleep here!" He stood at the head of the bed and pointed between the two pillows.
There are soft pillows on both sides, with a gap in the middle, so you feel very safe when sleeping in it.
Budno is very happy with this position.
He jumped off the bed, landed among the pillows, and tossed and turned happily.
Suddenly, a hand reached out, gently pinched his little wings, and lifted him out.
"It's not safe to sleep here," said Ace, the owner of the hand.
"Huh?" Budno was stunned.
Soon, he was moved between the wall and the pillow.
"Our heads will get pressed down easily when we sleep in the middle." Ace moved the pillow outwards, removing the gap in the middle and giving Budno more room to move.
Budno sat on the quilt, looked around, and said dejectedly: "Okay!"
He took out a spare small pillow, a small cushion, and a small quilt from the storage bag, spread them out, and lay down.
"Sperian, you sleep inside!" He waved to Shu Li who came out of the bathroom to wash up.
Shu Li changed into comfortable pajamas. When she heard Budno's call, she looked towards the bed and asked in confusion, "Why don't you lie in the middle?"
Budno simply relayed Ace's words: "It's easy for your heads to get crushed if you sleep in the middle."
"Oh, so that's it..." Shu Li didn't think much about it, lifted the quilt and lay down inside.
The bed in the hotel was quite small, so it was a bit crowded for two people to sleep on it. Shu Li tried to sleep as close to the wall as possible to leave room for Ace to sleep.
He turned his head and saw Budno, and poked him with his finger.
"What for?" Budno, who was getting ready for bed, mumbled while hugging his little pillow.
Shu Li smiled. "Don't snore."
Budno waved his fingers away with his little hand. "Don't worry, I sleep very well."
Shu Li expressed doubt.
Anyone who has slept with Budno knows how bad his sleeping posture is, so much so that when they go camping, they give him a small tent.
Budno was despised by everyone and felt aggrieved, but once he lay down in the tent, he fell into a sound sleep without any psychological burden.
Seeing him yawn, Shu Li stopped teasing him and considerately pulled the quilt over him. "Go to sleep!"
Budno nuzzled the soft little pillow. "I'm really asleep!"
Shu Li couldn't help laughing when she saw that he couldn't even open his eyes. "With Ace and I here, just sleep."
Budno closed his eyes in peace.
He loves sleeping the most, and it would be very painful for him to be woken up in the middle of the night.
After a while, he began to breathe evenly and fell into a sweet dream, which made Shu Li envious.
The sleep quality is really good!
Looking at myself, I feel a little nervous.
Ever since he found himself sleeping with Ace and having strange dreams, he tried to avoid it.
During this camping adventure, he specifically assigned Angel to Ace, and he and Disceo slept in one tent.
But today's situation was special and I couldn't avoid the fate of sleeping in the same bed with Ace.
Why--
Shu Li prayed in her heart, please don’t have any strange dreams!
"What's wrong?"
A man's deep voice rang in my ears.
Shu Li came back to her senses and turned around to see Ace with a waterfall of blonde hair, wearing a loose shirt with a wide open neckline, revealing his sexy collarbone.
As he grows older, he gradually matures and his masculine charm becomes stronger and stronger. When he walks on the street, he gets 100% attention and girls often confess their love to him.
However, he seemed to be polite to everyone and politely rejected everyone.
Whenever he looked at her with gentle eyes, Shu Li would look away guiltily.
He knew that Ace had someone in his heart.
And that person is himself.
Swallowing nervously, Shu Li moved inside, almost touching the wall.
"Good morning... go to bed early!" He pulled up the quilt to cover half of his face.
The hotel is in good condition. The quilt must have just been dried in the sun and still has the dry fragrance of the sun.
Ace lifted the covers and lay down.
The bed was indeed small, and the two of them lay side by side with their bodies pressed together.
"Where's Budno?" Ace asked.
"He fell asleep." Shu Li said muffledly under the quilt, "He always had good sleep quality."
Ace chuckled, "You can sleep peacefully too. I'll keep watch."
Shu Li hurriedly said: "No, no, no, let me do it!"
He didn't want to fall into a deep sleep. What if he had another strange dream? How would he face the Elf King in the future?
Ace gave him a deep look and didn't insist. "Thank you for your hard work."
He reached out and turned off the light.
In an instant, the room darkened.
Shu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Maybe nothing will happen."
"Yeah." Ace whispered, "Goodnight."
"Good night." Shu Li closed her eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, the man next to her fell asleep, but Shu Li was still awake and not sleepy at all.
He tried lying on his side, facing the wall, his back to Ace.
Just as he got into position, suddenly, an arm reached out and placed on his waist.
Shu Li almost screamed, and just as she was about to turn her head, a warm chest touched her back, and a burst of hot air sprayed on her ears.
Ace then turned sideways.
If his breathing hadn't been so even, Shu Li would have suspected that he did it on purpose.
He's sticking so close to me, is he treating me like a pillow?
Shu Li wanted to move but didn't dare to, for fear of waking up the person behind him. He was so nervous that he didn't know what to do, and his heart inexplicably beat faster.
what to do?
We can't keep this ambiguous behavior all night long, right?
Wow~~~
Now he envied Budno immensely.
If I had known that he would become smaller and sleep next to my pillow, I wouldn’t have to face such an embarrassing situation.
Shu Li was so conflicted that her fingers couldn't help but tug at the corner of the quilt.
It was late at night and everyone was asleep. My senses were magnified, my entire back felt hot, and my breathing gradually became rapid.
Should I change my sleeping position and risk waking the other person?
Or pretend that you have a bad sleeping posture and use brute force to push the other person away?
Shu Li thought about it and decided not to take any action. She remained in the embrace and forced herself to calm down.
Calm, calm, calm——
We are all men, so it’s okay to hug each other.
Treat extraordinary times as extraordinary. Make good use of your time to sleep because you have to get up early tomorrow to climb the mountain!
Shu Li kept convincing herself, and gradually, her tense body relaxed.
Once he figured it out, he was no longer sensitive. He slowly fell asleep, and before his mind became confused, he moved his body slightly and got closer to Ace.
Hmm...
The scent of the blazing flower on Ace's body is very faint today, and there seems to be an elegant scent of moonlight grass.
Shu Li didn't have time to think about it. Sleepiness swept over him and he fell asleep instantly.
I slept very soundly that night without any dreams.
When Shu Li opened his eyes, he and Budno, who was sleeping on his stomach, were the only ones on the bed. Ace was neither in the bed nor in the room.
He yawned, sat up and stretched.
It was a bit noisy outside, some people were shouting, some were yelling, and some were smashing things.
What's going on?
"Budno, wake up." Shu Li poked the drooling little goblin in his sleep.
Budno rolled over with his butt facing him.
Shu Li was so upset that she rubbed and pinched him with her fingers without any hesitation.
It feels really good.
Budno was finally awakened.
"Good... Good morning, Sperian." He rubbed his eyes and struggled to get up.
"It's getting late, get up quickly, it seems like there's a fight outside." Shu Li urged and got out of bed first.
"Oh." Budno wiped his face to sober himself up a little, put away his beloved little pillow, small pillow and small quilt, released his original power and grew in size.
Shu Li quickly washed, put on her clothes, and put on her hooded cloak. Just as she was about to open the door, it was pushed open and Ace walked in from outside.
"What happened?" Shu Li asked in confusion.
"Someone was killed." Ace said in a heavy tone.
"Murder... murder?" Budno jumped out of the bathroom and asked in surprise, "Who was killed?"
Ace said, "A magician who lived next door to Siti and the others was killed."
Shu Li and Budno looked at each other.
"Are Siti and Nasha okay?" Shu Li asked nervously.
"It's okay, Amanda protected them well." Ace said.
Shu Li pulled Budno and said, "Let's go over and take a look."
Ace turned sideways and waited for them to leave the room before closing the door behind him.
A murder occurred in the hotel and there was a commotion everywhere. In the living room downstairs, two adventure teams were confronting each other, blaming each other, fighting and scolding each other, and the hotel owner was extremely anxious.
The Light Team all got up, gathered together, and exchanged information with each other.
Nasha frowned and said, "I guess the murderer's original target was us."
Siti nodded: "Otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence."
Kumandi said, "The person living next door to you is a low-level magician, a man in his forties."
Shu Li asked, "If you were the target, why did you go next door?"
Amanda raised her hand and said shyly, "Well... before I went to bed yesterday, I set up an invisibility magic circle at the door."
The so-called invisibility magic circle is not true invisibility, but it reduces the sense of presence and makes others ignore you.
When the murderer arrived at their door, due to the effect of the magic circle, he ignored the doors of Amanda and others and broke into the next door instead.
There lived a magician in his forties next door. He was awakened in the middle of the night and had to fight with the murderer. The murderer realized he had found the wrong target and killed the magician without hesitation.
Dixie patted Amanda's head and said, "Well done!"
Amanda sighed, "But we were woken up in the middle of the night and didn't get much sleep."
Harris said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to sleep well on the rest of the journey. Everyone should be mentally prepared."
Entering the Snow Country with so many adventure teams is full of dangers. We may be attacked at any time and we have to stay alert at night.
Shu Li said solemnly, "We'll check out immediately and leave right after breakfast."
"good!"
Everyone mobilized, packed their luggage, went downstairs one after another, avoided the fighting adventure team, and left the hotel quietly.
It snowed at night, and everything was covered in white. The air was freezing cold, and even with magic props to keep out the cold, I still felt a bit chilly.
Before coming to the Snow Country, Team Light did detailed research.
The Snow Country is located in the far north of the continent, where it is covered with ice and snow. The temperature gets lower the higher you go in the mountains, so you must take precautions against the cold.
Shu Li had obtained some Sun Crystals from the Fire Temple before, and used them to make twelve belts, distributing one to each person.
The belt inlaid with Sun Crystals and equipped with magic runes has super cold-proof function, making it an excellent equipment for traveling to the Snow Country.
Shu Li pulled his cloak tightly around him, stepped into the knee-high snow with his boots, and walked towards a nearby restaurant.
Have a hot meal before going into the mountains!
"Wow, the snow is so soft." Disio was in a playful mood. He grabbed a handful of snow, made it into a snowball, and threw it at Budno.
Budno was hit directly. He bared his teeth, quickly rolled up a snowball and threw it back, hitting Angel.
Angel immediately joins in the snowball fight.
Shu Li was affected and said helplessly: "Be careful not to hit others!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Discio's snowball "whoosh" and hit a man in black robe who had just come out of the hotel.
"Oh no!" Desio was annoyed.
Shu Li held his forehead and stepped forward to apologize to the other party.
"I'm sorry, my companion didn't mean it..."
"Hmph." The man in black robe was tall and had a fierce aura. He looked at them unkindly.
Shu Li's heart skipped a beat, and he felt like he was in trouble.
Kumandi glanced at Disio, who gritted his teeth and took a step forward.
Everyone is responsible for their own actions. If the other party makes things difficult for them, he will take the initiative to bear the consequences.
Selyu suddenly walked through the crowd, came to the front of the black-robed man, and said lightly: "Merrisi, long time no see."
"Huh, huh, huh?"
The rest of Team Light made confused noises.
Is the man in black robe Morrissey?
The dark elf who often acts with Sadler!
"Tsk, are your eyes so sharp?" The man in black robe pulled off the windshield mask that covered half of his face, revealing a handsome blue-gray face.
It’s Morrissey!
The goblins all breathed a sigh of relief.
Great, it’s someone I know!
However, Morrissey was so bad that he deliberately scared them.
Seleu asked, "Sadler didn't come with you?"
Morrissey pointed to the restaurant door. "He's packing food inside."
The White Mage is very slow and even brings some freshly cooked barbecue when he goes into the mountains.
He looked behind Seryu, his eyes swept over the little ones, and asked, "Are you taking them to the Snow Country to play?"
Seleu denied: "No, we go to the Snow Mountain Labyrinth."
Morrissey raised an eyebrow and smiled like a fox. "What a coincidence! Sadler and I are also going to the Snow Mountain Maze. Want to team up?"
"Morrissey, who are you going to team up with?"
A cold voice came from behind, and the door of the restaurant was pushed open, revealing a tall figure. It was Sadler who had packed up the food and was going out to look for someone.
