Chapter 316 Chapter 316

The group searched several nearby buildings, but found nothing useful except the diary.

In addition, the weather was hot and they were sweating profusely just sitting still, not to mention the people running up and down the stairs, rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for valuable items. After just a short while, Lan Tiantian felt dizzy and nauseous, which were symptoms of mild heatstroke.

Realizing that he was not feeling well, Lan Tiantian immediately walked to the shadows, holding onto the wall, unbuttoned a few buttons, and took out a few gulps of water.

A ball of water solidified above her head and fell down, then the water droplets slid down Lan Tiantian's cheeks and dripped onto the ground. The wet marks left by the water droplets were quickly dried by the high temperature.

In addition to Lan Tiantian, Yu Huan's breathing was also slightly rapid.

Seeing that everyone was in a bad condition, Qu Zhongyi immediately called a stop.

"Captain, let's take a break. The weather here is not suitable for everyone to move around." Qu Zhongyi looked at Qingtong. Only then did he realize that Qingtong, as the captain, seemed... not to have shed a drop of sweat.

"Okay." Qingtong nodded, "I'll go over there and take a look. You guys rest here."

Qu Zhongyi nodded blankly, and only when Qingtong walked away did he suddenly turn around and ask Huang Tianzhen: "Is his physique so good?"

Huang Tianzhen was fanning his face with his hands. He looked up when he heard this and said, "Oh, the captain's physical fitness has always been better than ours, otherwise why is he the captain?"

Not only because Qingtong knows the most about weird things, but also because his physique is abnormally strong.

"This operation is going to fail." Han Qi raised his head and drank a bottle of water. He opened his backpack and took a look inside. "Oh no, there's not enough water."

"Why is it so hot here?" Huang Tianzhen scratched his head irritably.

“It’s probably because of ecological changes.”

"I don't know. I'm not a geographer."

"I feel a little sleepy." Gan Xiaoqing yawned, "This is the time to go to bed."

"It's okay, let's go to sleep." Qu Zhongyi said, "Although it's not night here, let's take turns to keep watch."

"Should we call the captain back first? He must have been busy all day and hasn't had a rest yet." Gong Qian said.

Su Sanan stood up and said, "I'll go find the captain."

"You stay here. You have water abilities. If anyone else gets heat stroke, I'll need you to help take care of them." Qu Zhongyi said, "I'll go find the captain and I'll be back soon."

"Okay. Come on, deputy captain." Gan Xiaoqing stretched lazily, "I'll just sleep for a while first." After saying that, she lay down.

Han Qi and Yu Huan also went to bed with her first. Lan Tiantian, Gong Qian and Huang Tianzhen were the ones who had to stay here in the first half.

"You should go to sleep first." Lan Tiantian patted Su Sanan's shoulder, "I will call you if anything happens."

Su Sanan was a little hesitant.

"Okay, take a rest." Lan Tiantian pushed him down. "If you don't take a good rest, you won't have the energy to deal with anything that happens in the future."

"It's really hard to fall asleep in such hot weather." Gan Xiaoqing said with a bitter face, resting his head on his arm.

"Don't complain if you can get some sleep." Lan Tiantian looked out the window at the scene where the air was distorted by the heat, "You should be thankful that nothing weird has happened yet."

As for other virtual circles going to other worlds, I wonder if they will be as peaceful as here.

On the other side, Qu Zhongyi had caught up with Qingtong. When he found him, Qingtong was looking for something in another house.

"Captain." Qu Zhongyi stepped forward and looked around. "Why don't we give up this operation? It's too hot. We might get heat stroke. And there shouldn't be many valuable things here, so..."

"There is something strange here." Qingtong said.

Qu Zhongyi: “Ah?”

Qingtong threw down the new garbage he had found: "There are some weird ones too."

When he heard that there was something strange here, Qu Zhongyi's nerves immediately tensed up. He thought of the team members who were still resting in the stone house, and asked hurriedly: "Did you find anything?"

"Not yet." Qingtong's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to search the corners. "Intuition."

Weirdness can reveal traces of weirdness, but he cannot explain this.

After coming to this world, Qingtong discovered that there was a strange aura everywhere. The opponent's level should not be high, but he is very good at hiding. Until now, no one has found his hiding place.

At first Qingtong thought it was the work of a monster hiding in a monster, but until now he hasn't found the monster, which is really strange.

"You guys go and have a rest, I'll look for it again." Qingtong said coldly.

"I'll go with you." Qu Zhongyi said quickly.

Qu Zhongyi, who was about to take action, thought of the team members who were still unaware of the situation. His expression changed and he said, "I'll go and inform them first."

Qingtong hummed indifferently and let Qu Zhongyi leave on his own.

Qu Zhongyi quickly returned to the stone house and was about to warn Lan Tiantian and the others, but when he came back he was stunned. There were people lying all over the stone floor. Whether they were Gan Xiaoqing and his men, or Lan Tiantian and his men who decided to defend the first half, they were all lying on the ground, sleeping soundly.

Realizing that they might be under strange influence, Qu Zhongyi walked forward while keeping alert to his surroundings. When he put his hand on Huang Tianzhen's shoulder and was about to wake them up, he felt dizzy and sleepiness invaded his brain irresistibly. His eyelids became heavier and heavier. After swaying for a while, Qu Zhongyi fell to the ground and fell asleep.

Everyone present fell into a dream.

Gan Xiaoqing did not realize that she was in a dream. When she opened her eyes, she found herself sitting at the dining table with her kind grandmother and naughty brother.

"Okay, these few dishes are enough." Grandma shouted to the kitchen, "You all should come out too. Make less, so that we can eat more."

"Okay, all we're missing is the braised blue shrimp!" Mom came out with a dish, and Dad brought the bowls and chopsticks.

"What to drink?"

My younger brother immediately raised his hand and said, "I want to drink lemon juice!"

Gan Xiaoqing looked at his brother in confusion. Just as he was wondering what kind of drink "juice" was, he saw his mother carrying a large bottle of juice and placing it on the table. There was a picture of a lemon on the label.

Her mother poured a glass for her and her brother. Gan Xiaoqing took a sip. It tasted like lemon-flavored Sprite, but the color was not clear, but slightly yellow.

"Come, let's celebrate our Xiaoqing's admission to Kyoto University!" Mom and Dad both raised their glasses.

Grandma touched Gan Xiaoqing's head and said, "As expected of my Xiaoqing, she is really amazing."

"I will definitely pass the exam in the future, and then I will go to the same college with my sister!" said the younger brother with a smile.

"Come on, let's have a toast?" Mom looked at Gan Xiaoqing with a smile.

Gan Xiaoqing was infected by the lively atmosphere, and the strange feeling in her heart faded away. She also raised her cup, completely immersed in the fantasy of entering Kyoto University in the future.

"By the way, elder sister, I have a present for you." The younger brother took out a packaged long skirt from the room, "I know you have wanted to buy this skirt for a long time. I bought it for you with the New Year's gift money I saved. I am good to you, right? When I pass the exam, you must buy me a present and you are not allowed to fool around."

Gan Xiaoqing looked at the pale blue dress and her smile froze slightly.

It's beautiful, but...is this what she wants?

She likes to wear skirts?

"Brother, wake up!"

Huang Tianzhen opened his eyes dazedly and saw a young boy lying on the head of his bed. Seeing that he was awake, he quickly said, "The sun is about to shine on your butt, why did you get up just now?"

"Ah?" Huang Tianzhen tilted his head and looked at the familiar yet slightly strange boy in front of him, "You are..."

"I'm your brother!" The boy frowned. "Are you confused because of sleep? We are all younger brothers, why am I so miserable? The sister next door is so kind to her brother, but my brother is just a lazy bug who does nothing."

"I did it!" Huang Tianzhen retorted subconsciously.

"What did you do?"

"I..." Huang Tianzhen recalled with difficulty. Yes, what does he do on weekdays?

He seemed to be a game nerd, immersed in the world of games on weekdays. Last night he played games until the early morning before going to bed, and today he got up at noon as usual.

Because his parents were both away on business trips, there were usually only him and his younger brother at home. His younger brother would go out to buy breakfast every day, and as for lunch...his younger brother would come back to make it. Occasionally, as the older brother, he would help out by washing vegetables, steaming rice, etc.

My younger brother is also responsible for cleaning the house.

Taking a look at his younger brother who seemed to be in junior high school, Huang Tianzhen asked himself in disbelief, is he such a useless person?

How come he feels like he wakes up early every morning, works out regularly, and makes a lot of money... right?

"Did I make money?" Huang Tianzhen asked his brother.

My younger brother was just putting on an apron and walking into the kitchen. He turned around and said, "Oh, you made some money. You made quite a lot from the game."

"Oh, that's right." Huang Tianzhen nodded, he had no problem.

Huang Tianzhen walked to the dining table and sat down, looking at the three dishes and a soup brought up by his younger brother, and he felt something was wrong again.

My brother’s cooking skills are really good, but the ingredients used in the dishes look unfamiliar.

Wait, does he have a brother?

"Honey, tomorrow is Monday." The woman with her hair tied up in a bun was washing dishes. "We can't go out on a date today again."

"Ah..." Su Sanan sat on the sofa, looking at the tidy living room blankly.

The walls and floors are made of stone. Although the furniture is made of wood, it is inlaid with various stones, giving the whole room a cold feel.

"There are always endless papers to mark for students. Next weekend is my birthday. Can you make some time to go to the cinema with me?" The woman's slightly expectant voice came from the kitchen.

Su Sanan said, "Let me try."

After saying this, he rubbed his temples, feeling dizzy and a little uncomfortable.

He is a teacher in a junior high school and also the class teacher.

I have been married for two years and have no children.

He wanted a child, but his wife said she hoped the family would have more savings so they could be financially better off before having a child.

Um?

Does he want children?

Su Sanan suddenly felt confused. He shouldn't have such an idea, because...

Why?

"... there's a new movie coming out, it's the kind of movie I like, I think..." The wife poked her head out of the kitchen, "Honey, are you listening?"

"I'm listening." Su Sanan raised his head and answered. When he met his wife's gaze, he was stunned.

The woman in front of him felt very strange.

Who is this? His wife?

Is he...married?
