Mingmei shouldn't have chosen to watch Lu Xiaoyao's live stream in an attempt to get out of her depression.
The Federation hasn't even been around for as long as the Empire role-playing game!
Don't ask. The reason is that she was too incompetent, and her superiors thought she would be dealt with sooner or later because of her poor performance.
"Waaaaah! The officials in the Federation are so mean! All I did was act a little slowly, so why do they suspect me of having ulterior motives?!"
The second game ended quickly, and Lu Xiaoyao cried her eyes out. Her only highlight was that she fought back and forth with the assassin who was trying to kill her, and in the end, another assassin had to take action and shoot her from the shadows before she was finally eliminated.
If I were in their shoes, I would have doubts too.
[You're dawdling over even the smallest things; I had no idea you were secretly exchanging messages with someone!]
【Kid, how about a less challenging role, like—a native of the ancient planet Earth?】
[For me, being a native of ancient Earth is no easy feat!]
First, you have to be chosen and "sold"!
Secondly, you have to be able to withstand genetic modification!
Finally, you have to choose whether to give up or participate in the resistance, and whether you can survive to the end...
A group of people started chattering away, but Lu Xiaoyao just smugly hummed and said, "When I played this in the Legion, we only had characters from the ancient planet Blue Star~ And I even won back then!"
"Is it too late for me to start selling boxed lunches in the game now?"
Mingmei watched as Lu Xiaoyao failed in both her role-playing as an Imperial Guard and her role-playing as a Federal Military Intelligence Service officer, and suddenly it dawned on her.
Lu Xiaoyao is just missing an NPC who sells boxed lunches to save her.
The comments section was flooded with suggestions that Lu Xiaoyao could try to find the NPC who sells boxed lunches, but the NPC who could actually "save" Lu Xiaoyao was watching the live stream.
In the first two rounds, Mingmei remembers that in one round, Lu Xiaoyao saw an NPC, but that NPC was obviously not willing to sell directly and even played a game of hide-and-seek with Lu Xiaoyao.
In the end, Lu Xiaoyao died without ever finding a merchant selling boxed lunches.
Gui Gui immediately made arrangements at Ming Mei's request.
If Mingmei could have activities other than spacing out, Guigui would definitely arrange them for her immediately!
So, Mingmei entered the game, and almost at the same moment, she pushed open the door, and the neighbor who pushed open the door next door was Lu Xiaoyao, who had just entered the game.
"Meimei!"
Lu Xiaoyao was extremely surprised. This was the first time she had seen Mingmei since the end of the great battle. Previously, Mingmei had not answered video calls and would occasionally reply with messages saying that she was on Huayan Star, which made Lu Xiaoyao afraid that Mingmei might have gone to the Zerg's lair to look for someone.
"Who are you?"
Not only because she was playing the role of an NPC selling boxed lunches, but more importantly because she was so annoyed by Lu Xiaoyao's first two games that she didn't want to show that they knew each other.
"Huh?"
Having played so many games, Lu Xiaoyao could now more or less understand what the other person was saying, thanks to the information ingrained in her subconscious.
"Ah..." Lu Xiaoyao scratched her head, glancing at Mingmei every now and then like a thief. Mingmei then got straight to the point and said, "Excuse me, I have to go to work."
"What do you do for a living?" Lu Xiaoyao asked almost unconsciously. Mingmei took out her insulated lunchbox and said, "I sell boxed lunches. Do you want some?"
Subconsciously, Lu Xiaoyao wanted to say she wanted to eat at the cafeteria, not at a street stall, but a voice inside her was screaming, "Buy it!!!"
"Uh...yes!"
As soon as Lu Xiaoyao finished speaking, a notification sound came from her brain.
Holy crap! So touching! My daughter has finally grown up!
[How boring! I love watching her cry her heart out in regret (doge emoji)~]
Congratulations! Hooray!
【Very good! 】
Suddenly I feel a little out of sorts...
Regardless of what the comments said, Lu Xiaoyao's reaction was bright and she was quite satisfied. She was also content that the boxed lunch had been sold for the first time.
【Host. 】
"Um?"
[I just detected that there are other classmates of yours in this game. Do you want to sell lunchboxes?]
Before Mingmei could answer, Guigui added, "Since we're already here, why not sell them all?"
Mingmei: "..."
For the first time, she experienced the terrifying phrase "since we're already here," to the point that whenever she spaced out like that later on, Gui Gui would mimic her behavior from that day.
Leaving aside what happened later, Mingmei felt that today was a truly magical day. Most of the classmates who participated in the last major battle were currently on vacation, and coincidentally, they were all in the game today.
Mingmei was coaxed into selling boxed lunches by Guigui, and soon she met Zhen Po, who had been brought over by Lu Xiaoyao.
While Zhen Po was eating his boxed lunch, Lu Xiaoyao wasn't idle either; she and Zhen Po actually started chatting.
"By the way, where's your brother? Don't you two usually play games together? Go find your brother later and have him eat with you."
When Lu Xiaoyao mentioned Zhen Hu, Zhen Po's expression turned strange. After swallowing a mouthful of rice, he said, "He didn't play games with me."
"Huh?" Lu Xiaoyao was taken aback, then thought for a moment and said, "Oh, is it because he didn't participate in the last battle and is still in the legion? So you're the only one resting and playing games by yourself?"
I wish it were like that!
Listening to Lu Xiaoyao's words, Zhen Po muttered to himself, then sighed and said, "My brother was caught up in the Central Star War during the last great battle."
"Huh? Isn't he in the Third Legion with my brother?" Lu Xiaoyao asked in surprise. "How did he get here?"
"I was on vacation, and then something happened that left me stranded on the central planet."
"I remember your hometown isn't on Central Star." Lu Xiaoyao kept asking questions, but Zhen Po was unwilling to answer and buried her head in her rice. Mingmei, on the other hand, seemed to have figured something out.
