Chapter 15: When we have children, we should get married
In the evening light, Chi Liu opened his blurry eyes in the rocking chair.
I don’t know if it was Xiangxiang or Saito who covered him with a soft blanket, but the blanket had a strange, cold fragrance.
The workers had already left work, and Xiang Xiang was squatting beside him, looking at him with curiosity and worry with his head tilted.
Saito stood by the glass door, his hands on his hips, looking at the interior that was almost finished with satisfaction. When he heard the noise, he turned around and smiled, revealing his white teeth: "Boss, our store will be open soon! I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Then I can not only mix drinks, but also help out in the kitchen!"
His new life is about to begin!
Chi Liu thought of the "flesh and blood body" and smiled: "That's not necessary." After a pause, he remembered something and asked again: "Is your nosebleed serious? Are you okay?"
Saito touched the back of his head, his expression still indifferent: "Ah? When did I have a nosebleed?"
His most important advantage is that he is healthy and strong! How could he have a nosebleed?
Chi Liu was startled in confusion. Just as he was about to say something, someone knocked on the glass door. Saito looked over there and shouted, "Old Wen!"
This guy is a promising employee, why is he here again!
Secretary Wen, carrying a briefcase, came in. He smiled at Chi Liu and said, "I'll pick up the box."
Chi Liu raised an eyebrow: "You got off work early today?"
Secretary Wen pushed his glasses and looked at Chi Liu with a subtle expression: "Ah, the boss was worried about something... well, very unbelievable. I couldn't play an effective role, so he kicked me out of the office."
Chi Liu: “.” He sounds like a very willful guy.
At this time, Secretary Wen took out a beautifully packaged tin can from his briefcase and called out, "Small box."
Xiang Xiang squatted there, staring blankly at Secretary Wen: "?"
Secretary Wen curved her eyes and said, "Go on."
The tin can flew towards the boy in an arc and landed accurately in his arms.
Xiang Xiang held the tin can, and his blue eyes suddenly lit up: Canned eyes! So delicious!
Secretary Wen looked at the boy tenderly for a moment, then turned his gaze to Chi Liu. He hesitated for a moment, and asked carefully, "Boss Chi, do you believe that men can get pregnant?"
"puff--"
Saito, who was drinking water, spit out the water and coughed hard.
Chi Liu twitched his lips and said jokingly, "You worked overtime and got infected with your boss's madness?"
Secretary Wen pinched his brows and said, "Just think of me as crazy."
He didn't know what he was thinking about, and his face was full of doubts about his life - he didn't want to ask his friend such a question that would make him look stupid!
Although his boss is not very socialized and often acts unreasonably crazy, he never lies.
Their God never lies.
Boss told him seriously that Xiaochi was pregnant with his child.
That embryo is almost one month old.
Only now did he realize that the NPC in the boss's room that night was actually Xiaochi!
Secretary Wen didn't want to pry into his friend's privacy, nor did he want to force his friend to admit that he had had a relationship with his boss. He was only worried about his friend's health.
So he looked at Chi Liu and asked seriously, "Do you believe me?"
Chi Liu smiled and nodded without much hesitation.
This was the first friend he made in this strange world.
Secretary Wen's inorganic green eyes showed a hint of warmth, and he said, "I know a doctor, would you like him to examine your body?"
Doctors are also NPCs, but they belong to a special department.
In fact, this was originally the task given to him by the boss.
He was also shocked at the time that his boss, who had never been very socialized, had actually learned this roundabout method - he knew that he and Koike were good friends, so he sent him to talk about this matter.
Although, even if there was no boss, he would still tell his friend if he knew his friend's physical condition.
Chi Liu blinked in surprise: This was the second person today who wanted him to have a physical examination again.
This was indeed a very strange request - especially for Secretary Wen, who knew that he had just been to the hospital.
But maybe it wouldn’t hurt to check again.
Chi Liu subconsciously looked at his abdomen, smiled, and said, "Okay."
Secretary Wen was finally relieved.
…
After parting with Secretary Wen and the others, night had already fallen.
Chi Liu walked home as usual. When he entered the community and passed the playground, he saw the little girl with twin ponytails again. This time, she had two cat hairpins in her hair.
It was just after dinner and the play area was full of children playing, it was very lively. However, the girl's grandmother carried the girl home with a wary look on her face.
As he approached Chi Liu, he heard the old woman muttering angrily: "Your mother is such a bastard! She actually tried to sneak you away! She's done it three times in two days!"
"Your father has finally been reborn!"
"It's not that grandma doesn't let you play, kid, but what if your mom gets crazy again and comes here to snatch you away? Be good, grandma will take you home, and daddy will be back soon!"
As the old man passed by quickly, Chi Liu caught a glimpse of the little girl's expression, which looked like she was about to cry. He frowned slightly and looked thoughtfully at the building number the old man had entered again.
This time, he stopped for a while, keeping his eyes on the old man's figure.
Not long after the old man went in, he saw from afar that the lights on the second-floor balcony were on - the old man and the little girl probably lived there.
Without staying any longer, Chi Liu quickly returned to his home.
He prepared a delicious dinner for himself as usual, but he was unusually absent-minded while eating.
Somehow he couldn't let go of that little girl.
The little girl was the same age as his little niece. Children of this age should be the most carefree, but both times he saw her, her face was full of worry.
Moreover, he always felt that the old man's words were very strange: what does it mean to be reborn with great difficulty?
Why was the girl's mother so anxious to take the girl away that she tried three times in two days?
Chi Liu lowered his eyes, and a rare chill appeared in his amber pupils under his long eyelashes. With a slight sound, he put down his chopsticks and walked out decisively.
…
Chi Liu originally wanted to go directly to that family's house to find out what was going on, but when he passed by the empty play area, a little girl bumped into him.
She was trembling all over, her coat and dress were covered in mud, one of her ponytails was loose, her face was covered in tears, and her big black eyes were full of fear.
After Chi Liu supported her, his pupils shrank, and his amber pupils were instantly filled with coldness.
Just as he was about to say something, the little girl's trembling hands had already grabbed the corner of his clothes, and her voice was filled with tears: "Big brother, run, run..."
Chi Liu slowed down his voice and said gently: "Don't be afraid, I will help you. Tell me what happened."
The little girl finally burst into tears: "Mom, please save me, Dad wants to eat me and grandma..."
Her mother came to take her away again, but was discovered by her father who had just returned home...
Dad wants to eat mom, and when grandma finds out, he wants to eat grandma too...
Her mother, who only had one hand left, pushed her out the door in a hurry. She only had time to cry and tell her to run and hide before her father dragged her back home and closed the door...
Chi Liu suddenly opened his eyes wide.
After a moment, he looked seriously into the girl's eyes and repeated, "I will help you."
He borrowed the girl's coat, pulled her out of the play area, put his hand on her tender shoulder, and pointed in a direction: "See? That's the nearest gate. Go there now to find the security guard and tell him that your father is killing someone. Ask him to call the police and bring the security team to your house to rescue people immediately."
By the time the police get here it might be too late.
The girl opened her eyes wide. Chi Liu had already pushed her forward a step and looked at her with curved eyes, saying gently but sternly: "You can do it. Mom is still waiting for you."
The girl cried, gritted her teeth, nodded, and ran desperately towards the gate.
At the same time, Chi Liu's usually gentle and pretty face suddenly turned frighteningly cold, and he strode towards the building without hesitation.
Matters such as human life are a race against time.
It was not far from the fire escape staircase to the second floor, and Chi Liu soon stood in front of a metal door. He put one hand behind his back and rang the doorbell with the other hand.
A man's voice soon came out from the electronic screen. His voice was not fierce but unusually gentle: "Excuse me, who are you? What can I do for you?"
Chi Liu's heart was beating too fast. He looked at the cat's eye without leaving any trace. He was very sensitive to sight. That man was looking at him through the cat's eye at this moment, with a very sticky and disgusting gaze...
Chi Liu held the dismantled fire extinguisher in his hands behind his back, with the mouth of the bottle supporting the girl's coat, and deliberately exposing a section of the sleeve - as if there really was a child hiding behind him.
He smiled slightly: "I am from the property management, I saw your daughter in the community, and now I am sending her home."
…
Yingwang Building.
The secretary who received the news and came back to work overtime had no complaints.
He placed three portraits on Chu Qi's desk, his face serious, and said, "These are the people who have disappeared in this city in the past three months. The number is indeed within the normal range, so the department did not notice it at first."
After all, no matter how good the public security in a city is, it is impossible for no cases to occur.
"However, they recently discovered that these people have one thing in common, that is, their personalities change drastically for a period of time before they disappear, and murders happen around them. After that, they suddenly disappear as major suspects, and no trace of their bodies is left."
"Old Zheng has been looking through the archives for a long time and found that a soldier player next to the player commander had the ability to transform. He is likely one of the players who cheated and came to the vacation world."
Transfiguration, as the name suggests, means that if you eat an NPC, you will transform into that NPC's appearance...
It's a really disgusting ability.
Secretary Wen looked a little cold. He pushed a photo of the community in front of Chu Qi and said, "We have narrowed down the scope through large-scale testing of the degree of plant alienation. He is here."
In the neighborhood where the boss and Xiaochi live...
Chu Qi suddenly raised his head, his dark pupils were cold, and a scarlet light spread from the center of his eyeballs, almost filling his entire eye sockets.
The next moment, his figure disappeared in the office.
…
Outside the metal door, the man opened it.
With a "bang", Chi Liu smashed the fire extinguisher in his hand towards the man's head, with a cold light in his eyes.
The tall and thin man with blood on his collar tilted his head, said "Ah", and fell straight down.
He fell to the ground, twitching, but not unconscious. His eyes rolled around, and he excitedly peeked at Chi Liu through the gap: What a nice smell, what a nice smell, what a nice smell…
Chi Liu didn't notice that the room was filled with a strong smell of blood. His face turned pale and he searched the room quickly and neatly.
In less than a few seconds, he came behind the sofa, and without hesitation gave up on the old man who was unrecognizable and had no signs of life, and just helped up the woman who was almost unconscious and had only one wrist broken - he recognized that this was the woman from the convenience store.
He held her in his arms and strode towards the door, whispering, "Hold on, your daughter is waiting for you."
Various knives were scattered on the ground, and there were small bloody marks on the woman's neck. It seemed that Chi Liu's doorbell just interrupted the more brutal cutting.
The woman closed her eyes and trembled, but still bit her tongue to prevent herself from falling into a coma.
They quickly reached the door, and the next step was to go outside, but Chi Liu paused - the man on the ground raised his face, revealing a greedy and terrifying smile, his saliva all over the ground, and he grabbed his ankle tightly.
"It smells so good, so good, so good..."
That man had amazing strength.
Unable to break free.
This is not a power that humans should have at all.
...What if, it really isn't human?
Chi Liu immediately figured out the situation and smiled gently at the woman: "Your daughter is in the security room." After that, he pushed the other person out without hesitation and closed the door forcefully.
In the enclosed space, the man had already stood up, his overly slender arms still tightly grasping Chi Liu's ankles, his pupils flashing with greed, his saliva-covered teeth pointed at Chi Liu's neck, and he was about to pounce on him...
Chi Liu concluded that it was impossible to avoid it.
He subconsciously turned his back to the man and curled up slightly, exposing his back completely to him.
He just used all his strength to protect his abdomen - he couldn't explain why... but a soft and sour emotion overwhelmed his heart, he just wanted to do this...
At least protect...
Chi Liu closed his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly: Who should I protect?
My abdomen is slightly warm...
"Mom, Mom..."
Who is crying...
Who is calling him so urgently...
At least protect...
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" and the man who was about to touch Chi Liu flew out suddenly, his upper body was embedded in the wall, and his lower body was turned into powder.
The man's internal organs were flowing out, blue blood was flowing from his mouth, and he tried to tilt his head: Huh?
He moved one hand, about to activate the bracelet on his wrist...
…
A loud noise echoed in his ears, Chi Liu's pupils shrank, and his body curled up uncontrollably and fell to the ground sideways -
The next second, he fell into an embrace filled with a cold fragrance.
The tall and handsome man in a suit and tie held the young man tightly in his arms. His voice still had a certain distortion, but it was incredibly gentle: "Don't be afraid."
The tip of Chi Liu's nose was filled with a cold fragrance, and he suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Countless dark blue tentacles broke through Chu Qi's back and rushed towards the things on the wall frantically and angrily. The body of the man on the wall was completely devoured amid screams...
The tentacles were still chewing as if venting their anger.
Chu Qi's back half had completely transformed into a terrifying monster, but his hands carefully covered the ears of the young man in his arms.
He lowered his eyes and looked at him tenderly and self-reproachfully, murmuring repeatedly: "Don't be afraid."
Chi Liu couldn't hear clearly what the man said. His breathing was trembling. He raised his head slightly, and in his narrow field of vision he could see a clear pale jaw under the funny little bear mask.
"Ah," Chi Liu smiled weakly, "I owe you a favor again. I don't even seem to have asked your name..."
His neighbor was indeed a good man. And he was so powerful. I didn't even see how he subdued the monster...
"Sorry," Chi Liu's hand was still gently caressing her abdomen, and she smiled at the man: "I seem a little tired..."
The incredibly beautiful smile was completely engraved in Chu Qi's eyes.
He watched Chi Liu's eyelids slowly close and her body completely limp in his arms.
The things on the wall had been eaten away without leaving a trace, and Chu Qi picked up the young man steadily.
The shrill sound of sirens was heard outside the window, and hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, but Chu Qi just gave the young man a cold kiss on the forehead.
The next second, their figures completely disappeared from this space.
…
In the quiet moonlight, Chi Liu, who had changed into soft pajamas, was sinking into the quilt and sleeping peacefully.
The tall man half-knelt beside the bed and put the young man's hand into the quilt. He lowered his head and looked at the young man's abdomen: "You saved him. You did a good job, little guy."
The child was so sad that he could hardly breathe: "Wow, wow, wow..." It was all his fault for waking up too late. His mother almost...QAQ
Chu Qi gently placed his hand on the young man's abdomen through the quilt. Soon, the emotional child was strangely calmed down and fell into a deep sleep again.
Chu Qi was still talking to the child: "He loves you very much."
Even if he doesn't know you exist, he loves you with his life.
"Sorry, I'm late." He ran his slender, pale fingers through the young man's soft hair and murmured, "Perhaps, I shouldn't hide like this cowardly."
"Honey, according to the rules of the vacation world, we should get married if we have a child, right?"
He leaned over and kissed the young man's fair forehead again, his dark pupils filled with a strange light: "If I propose to you, will you agree, dear?"
