Chapter 168 The person I want to help most is you
Zhen Jinli hadn't noticed this at first, but after being reminded by Su Yan, she couldn't help but look at herself in the mirror.
She looks younger and more immature in the mirror than she does in real life.
"It seems to be true." Zhen Jinli raised her hand to fiddle with the bangs on her forehead and tucked the longer hair behind her ears.
When she was in high school, she cut her hair short for a while because short hair was easier to manage and saved time.
However, this game seems to only make the player's body regress to the state of 17 or 18 years old, and will not force the player's hairstyle to change significantly.
At least the long hair outside the game won't be forced to be short, which would be too abrupt.
But her hairstyle has become a high ponytail, not her usual long hair or half-tied hair.
"Then Brother Su, please be careful over there. If you have any questions, you can contact me during your break."
Seeing that there was no problem on Su Yan's side, Zhen Jinli hung up the communicator after she finished speaking.
The short numbers she set on the communicator were: 001 for calling her, 002 for calling Su Yan, and 003 for calling Chen Ji.
As for 004, you can call Song Tianlan.
That’s right, Zhen Jinli also set up a quick dial number for Song Tianlan and bought him an instant messenger, but it couldn’t be used in this game for the time being.
Zhen Jinli chose to leave No. 005 empty. She didn’t know what she was expecting. Maybe she was expecting a miracle to happen.
As for Zhang Yu’s contact number, it is 006.
Zhen Jinli finally contacted Chen Ji, who was also the one she was most worried about.
Chen Ji is so absorbed in practicing skills like cosplay and makeup that he may have almost forgotten all the courses he took in high school.
I wonder if he can adapt to the high school life in this game?
As soon as Shen Jing answered the phone, he sounded a little out of breath, as if he had just climbed the stairs.
"Jiuyi, how are things going over there?" Zhen Jinli asked with some concern.
"Ahem." Shen Ji coughed twice in a suppressed manner. "I brought back my math and English textbooks. There's a math test and English dictation tomorrow. If I don't pass them, I might lose disciplinary points."
Zhen Jinli asked, "Are you in the arts class or the science class?"
Shen Ji said: "Liberal Arts class, I'm in Class 12 of Senior 3."
Zhen Jinli pondered for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, the arts and science classes are divided into classes in the second year of high school."
"What I know now is that Su Ge is in Class 1 of Senior 3, which is a key science class, and Zhang Yu is in Class 4 of Senior 3, which is a parallel science class."
"I'm currently in Class 9 of Senior 3, a key liberal arts class."
"If I'm not mistaken, Class 12 of Senior Year 3 is a parallel class for the liberal arts, right?"
Shen Ji smiled bitterly: "That's right, the legendary last class that has been abandoned by the school, Class 12 of Senior Year, the weakest class, is my class."
T City Middle School has 8 science classes and 4 liberal arts classes. Most students choose science classes as they are more likely to get into university.
Although Zhen Jinli didn't know what kind of terrible things would happen to Chen Ji, a student in the weakest class, she still tried to persuade him.
"Jiuyi, do you want to quit this game?"
Zhen Jinli tried her best to make her tone sound calm and gentle.
"I'm not giving up on you, Jiuyi. I'm just afraid you'll get hurt."
She once entered Jiuyi's nightmare memories in the dreamland and learned about the embarrassing and terrible memories he had experienced in middle school.
Zhen Jinli even felt a little annoyed about why she chose such a game. Anything related to school would definitely be the game that Jiuyi was most afraid of and least good at.
Unfortunately, she was only thinking about using her own advantages to play game copies with less information and provide other players with complete game information, and ignored this point.
There was silence for a moment, and then there was a faint sound, and he seemed to put something down.
After putting the book on the bed and picking up the flashlight, Chen Ji walked to the balcony, avoiding his roommates and replied to Zhen Jinli.
"Xiao Li, do you know why I followed you into the game?"
Zhen Jinli was slightly startled when she heard this, and subconsciously asked back, "Don't you have relatives or friends who need to be resurrected?"
Shen Ji shook his head and said, “I do have people and friends I want to resurrect, but the person I want to help most is you.”
Zhen Jinli's heart softened, and a warm feeling spread in her heart.
"Is it because of my special identity?" Zhen Jinli was embarrassed to say the title given to her by netizens.
But they all knew how important her restraint in the game was to the majority of players.
"I guess so." Shen Ji looked at the brightly lit girls' dormitory across the street, a gentle smile on his lips.
"Also, I want to repay you for saving my life in the game."
Zhen Jinli took a long time to react before she remembered: "You mean, that time in the Dream Kingdom?"
"That time, I was targeted by the game, and I figured there was no way to leave the game anyway. Even if I failed, staying in your dreamland wouldn't make much difference to staying in the Dream Kingdom."
"That's why I took the risk of going into your nightmare memories to rescue you. You don't have to repay me specially."
Zhen Jinli particularly emphasized her original intention in order to downplay the importance of her life-saving grace to Chen Jing.
He really didn't have to deliberately follow her into the game just to repay her for this.
Shen Ji shook his head and said, “Maybe you think it’s nothing, but for me, that dream was a dream of redemption that opened up my heart.”
She would never know what kind of courage and strength she gave him when she reached out her hand to him and told him to follow her.
It was as if as long as she held his hand, he could break out of the nightmare that imprisoned him and free himself from the shackles of those terrible memories.
"Actually, in this game, I'm not afraid at all, because you're here."
For some reason, ever since she pulled him out of that nightmare memory, Chen Ji felt that he would feel particularly safe wherever Zhen Jinli was.
Shen Si's eyes were misty, and he looked at his roommate who was busy tidying up behind him and whispered.
"I know I can't stay with you until the end of this game, but before I leave, I want to help you with a few final experiments."
Zhen Jinli became anxious when she heard this: "But Chen Jing, if all your initial points are deducted, you will die in the game."
Ana Shen chuckled: "Don't worry, I know my limits."
"I'll contact you during the next break."
"I'll tell you the information I've learned from my experiments. I'll be careful not to let my score fall below 20."
After hearing Shen Jing's assurance, Zhen Jinli finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, then remember to be careful."
