Chapter 51 Unknown Time
There was also a large bag of cheese slices, a small box of wafer sandwich biscuits, a large bag of braised chicken legs, a small box of fruit-flavored jelly, a large box of crispy mint gum, a small box of apples, a small box of bananas, and a small box of oranges.
It truly lives up to its bronze-level reputation. The rewards, including fuel, videos, drinks, water, and fruit, are incredibly generous. If she hadn't already had such a blast at the amusement park, today's harvest would have been her most lucrative day yet!
Of course, the upgraded car also consumes a lot more fuel. I didn't drive it much this afternoon and it still consumed almost 50 units of fuel. Another pity is that I still didn't get any vegetables from today's treasure chest. I wonder when the problem of vegetables and meat in this game will be solved.
Do you have to find a silver treasure chest on the highway to get it? Are vegetables and meat really that precious? Is it like those road trip games and novels where these precious treasure chests are guarded by monsters that you have to defeat to get them?
The three of them spent their dinner amidst Feng Xingshou's nagging. After dinner, because of the weather outside, they couldn't even take a walk, so they could only stretch their bodies in the small living room inside the car.
Finally finding a bathroom where they could take a hot shower, Feng Xingshou took out shampoo and shower gel, and the three of them took turns taking a hot shower. With a slight regret that they hadn't changed their clothes, they prepared to rest.
According to Hagiwara and Matsuda, they wanted Fuu-chan to sleep alone in the large bed in the carriage, so they adjusted the sofa and table in the living room to a single bed configuration.
One person keeps watch at night while the other rests. When it's time for the midnight dungeon, the person who was resting is woken up, and then they fight monsters together. After the dungeon is finished, the other person takes over to rest, while the person who has already slept keeps watch.
The next day, the direction of the drive will be determined based on the level of the treasure chest dropped in the dungeon that night. Then, the people who rested last night will drive, and the people who kept watch will go to the single beds in the back to rest.
Feng Xing Shou was speechless at their complicated and tedious arrangements, and said to them in a tough tone: "Why did you make it so complicated? The car body has been upgraded, and the game said that it could survive the first two seasons before the upgrade."
That way, there's no need to keep watch at all. Just set your alarms and wake us up at 11:50 PM. We can finish the game and then go back to sleep. As for the beds, it's even simpler. The big sofa bed can sleep two people, so you two can sleep there. The single bed can sleep one person, and I'll sleep here.
"Fū-chan! A single bed isn't very comfortable to sleep in. If you toss and turn in your sleep, you might fall to the floor." Hagiwara's previous arrangement was to allow Fū-chan to stretch out and rest properly.
Hearing this, Feng Xingshou couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, his ears turning slightly red. This guy even said that he always slept very properly, lying down in the same position as when he woke up, after all, his obsessive-compulsive older brother had dictated his sleeping posture.
He's the one who really needs a big bed to sleep. Feeling embarrassed, she couldn't be bothered with this guy who defined his sleeping position based on his own sleeping habits, and directly retorted: "Compared to someone who sleeps like an octopus, I don't need you to worry about me."
"Uh..." Hagiwara then remembered the scene when he woke up that morning when they slept together, and silently swallowed back the words he wanted to say to persuade her.
.
What's the meaning behind their conversation? Have they already slept together? Hagiwara's only been here a few days, how could he be so quick? Even if he's charming, he can't possibly win over a junior high school student this fast, right?
Besides, relationships between men and women always take time to develop feelings. He's not the type to just settle for any woman he doesn't have. In fact, given his popularity, the fact that he hasn't had a girlfriend yet shows how serious he is about relationships.
After all, Japanese schools and social atmosphere have instilled in boys and girls the habit of...
Many girls start dating in middle and high school, and most of them give up going to university at this age and choose to become their boyfriends' housewives.
Or they might start working part-time, or try their luck in Tokyo! Ironically, fewer women seem interested in dating after entering university; their energy is focused on studying and job hunting…
So, Hagiwara, who was very popular, didn't find a girlfriend during his junior and senior high school years, when it's easiest to find one. In his opinion, he knew that his childhood friend, despite his flirtatious nature, was actually very serious about relationships.
Could someone as serious about relationships really make a move on a junior schoolgirl in just a few days? But it also sounds like something's really going on... cough cough... Just imagining it makes Matsuda's face burn. He thinks he shouldn't be on this car right now.
"Alright, follow my schedule. We'll rest in a bit. You two will sleep in the big bed, and I'll sleep in the single bed." Feng Xingshou didn't expect his words to cause such a misunderstanding with Matsuda, so he continued to insist on the schedule.
Then, while searching for a timer in his backpack's storage compartment, he spoke to the two of them in a normal tone: "Would it be okay to use one of those electronic timers that they use for cooking, which we got from the amusement park? Although we can't tell the time, we can use the countdown to set a reminder for the midnight dungeon."
"Fine!" Seeing her uncompromising attitude, Hagiwara had no choice but to compromise.
Matsuda watched from the sidelines, chuckling to himself. This guy had finally found his nemesis! Before, everyone else had no choice but to surrender because of him, but this time it was finally someone else's turn. It really is true that every creature has its nemesis! (*^▽^*)
At 11:50 p.m., the countdown timer rang, and Hagiwara and Matsuda, who were still alert even while sleeping, instantly woke up. They quickly stopped the electronic alarm, put on their coats, grabbed their weapons, and went to the driver and passenger seats to prepare.
Feng Xing Shou's sleep quality remained excellent; even the loud electronic alarm didn't make her turn over, let alone wake up to join in the dungeon run.
"I really wish she could share some of her sleep quality with me, just a fraction, I don't need more." Seeing her sleeping so soundly, Matsuda, who had suffered from chronic insomnia for many years since his childhood friend "died," was extremely envious.
Hagiwara wholeheartedly agreed, chuckling as he gave a thumbs-up: "Same here!"
Although the two were chatting and laughing, they were not actually lax. While checking their guns and replenishing their ammunition, they kept an eye on the changes outside the vehicle. Sure enough, at exactly twelve o'clock, the monster respawned on time.
And the monsters that spawned were the same as last night, giant boar monsters. The two experienced players quickly cleared the dungeon, and were a little confused when they saw the silver treasure chest being carried in from outside the car.
Hagiwara couldn't help but smile helplessly: "An unexpected development has occurred."
"Just like the strange thing and the treasure chest last night, it means that today's timeline is probably still in 2014. And since both nights are the same, we can't deduce whether heading this way is towards the past or the future." Matsuda was also quite speechless.
"Heh..." Seeing his expression, Hagiwara chuckled: "It seems we can only wait until we enter the instance tomorrow to check the real time. Even if it's still in 2014, the timeline will definitely change, either moving forward or backward."
"That's true..." Matsuda glanced at his childhood friend with his crescent-shaped eyes and teased him, "But someone might be about to embarrass himself in front of his junior schoolmate. His prediction that he would get the direction tonight was wrong. He's probably thinking about how to smooth things over for himself tomorrow!"
"Ahem! It's just one mistake, Feng-chan won't mind!" But as a man, he still hopes to appear impressive and capable in the eyes of the person he likes, and not to show his incompetence! Sigh! Looks like I'm going to embarrass myself tomorrow morning! Hagiwara was a little depressed.
Matsuda noticed that he was not as composed as before.
Seeing his expression, I couldn't help but laugh and tease him, "You've finally met your match. If those women who sent you love letters and got rejected knew, they'd laugh at you mercilessly."
"Hey! Jinpei, you're more popular than me! Be careful, one day you might embarrass yourself even more than me when you meet someone you like." Hagiwara said as he picked up the empty bullet casings and cleaned up the driver's seat.
Unaware that Matsuda was stunned, he then touched his chin, thinking with a hint of helplessness that he probably didn't have good luck in love. His first love, Chisato, didn't like people younger than her, and their first love ended before it even began.
After being transferred to the Metropolitan Police Department recently, he felt that Sato's personality was very similar to Chisato's, and he admired her somewhat, but he hadn't thought about having anything happen between them before coming here. Tsk! With his luck like this, he smiled lazily and said nonchalantly, "Then I'll look forward to the day when I'm embarrassed!"
"Don't speak too soon!" Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Hagiwara felt that his childhood friend was planting his flag, and sooner or later he would stop being so stubborn...
.
The next morning, Feng Xingshou's biological clock was still on time. She woke up at around 5 a.m., sat up in her single bed, looked out the window, and felt that it was still dark outside. She wondered if she had gotten up too early.
But having already woken up, she didn't want to go back to sleep, so she decided to get up and do something. After all, she was in the RV, and there were two big men living in the small living room. She had just washed her clothes in the shower and put them on.
She only takes off her top and coat before going to sleep, without taking off her inner clothes. Getting up is also very simple now; she just puts on a coat and folds up the blanket she got from the dungeon. This was her usual routine every morning after entering the game.
But today, she felt different after putting on her coat. Why did she feel a little cold wearing it? As soon as this question popped into her mind, she instantly remembered that the disaster season had already begun.
It only took me a day to realize that the car was already getting a little cold inside. -_-|| If it gets any colder in a few more days, it'll be even colder. Looks like I need to get the car air conditioning, and warm clothes for men and women to wear during the changing seasons, like down jackets and boots.
As she pondered, she casually took a few steps forward, intending to get out of the car to check on the sleet outside. However, when she reached the car door, she saw several silver treasure chests on the kitchen counter and her eyes lit up immediately. Wow! These were the rewards from last night's dungeon.
And it's silver level, haha! I thought yesterday's journey would downgrade to a bronze treasure chest! It seems Matsuda might have been wrong. She opened the chest skillfully as she thought this, and then the familiar game announcement appeared before her eyes:
