Chapter 65 Another self saves life, Li Ming becomes a blind box! ...
The agreed meeting place was in the suburbs of Lingcheng.
Li Mingchu thought about the meeting place the uncle had mentioned, and his heart sank inexplicably. Knowing that the closer the "monsters" were to the border of Lingcheng, the easier it would be for them to be discovered, he still chose such a place...
It can be said that it was done on purpose.
Why did it become like this?
The above thoughts reappeared in Li Ming's mind, and his emotions took a long time to calm down.
Jiang Huai, who was standing by, saw this and asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"
"..." Li Ming was silent.
After a long while, he sighed and said to Jiang Huai with a wry smile: "You accept it much better than me."
Jiang Huai was helpless after hearing this: "It's just that things have already happened, and it's useless to think about it. The only things we can change are our own thoughts and those of our close ones."
"and--"
Jiang Huai said seriously, "I don't think it's shameful to do whatever it takes to survive."
"It seems that I am getting too obsessed."
"Because you are in the middle of the situation, Li Ming." Jiang Huai said helplessly, "Now that your family is nowhere to be found, your worries and anxieties will prevent you from calming down and thinking."
"...Maybe." Li Ming said gloomily.
Li Ming looked at his palm silently. This was a human hand, but maybe one day in the future it would become something else.
If that really happens, can he still return to the crowd?
Li Ming sighed to himself. Unconsciously, he had come to believe in the future that the readers had described for him.
"If one day you have to do something similar, will you still maintain your current opinion?" Li Ming asked inexplicably. His eyes stared at Jiang Huai calmly, as if he was asking about a very ordinary topic.
This time it was Jiang Huai's turn to remain silent.
"Those involved are confused, Li Ming."
Jiang Huai smiled bitterly. He said with some regret: "No matter what, betrayal is betrayal. Reason tells me that this is right, but emotions cannot be controlled."
"I can comfort others, but I can't comfort myself."
"What a complex creature."
Li Ming sighed in a tone that pretended to be calm. Then he pursed his lips and said softly, "I will remember this sentence."
So that you won’t be trapped in the same swamp in the future.
"Let's go, Jiang Huai."
Li Ming stood up from the stairs. He patted the corner of his pants and said seriously, "Let's find a place to sleep. Nothing should happen today."
"Okay." Jiang Huai nodded in response.
The two passed by the messy streets and walked towards the unknown distance.
*
Li Ming suddenly threw himself onto the bed in the hotel.
His entire face was buried in the pillow, and his arms hung limply on the side of the bed. He looked more like a corpse about to be thrown away than a living person.
"Are you very tired?" Jiang Huai, who was standing nearby, asked softly.
“Somewhat.”
Li Ming said in a muffled voice without moving his head. His tone was hoarse and weak, as if he was talking to someone through a cheap megaphone.
Actually I didn't do anything today, but I was just very tired.
"You make me worry about what will happen after I leave." Jiang Huai murmured sadly when he saw this.
"Don't worry."
After hearing this, Li Ming struggled to get up from the bed. Facing Jiang Huai's disapproving gaze, he dragged himself to the bedside and sat down.
Li Ming babbled, "I think it's because I encountered too many different types of disasters, which caused my talents to be overdrawn repeatedly, so I'm very tired."
"Really?"
"Really." Li Ming said firmly.
"..." Jiang Huai fell silent, "Shouldn't I be more worried?"
“Don’t sweat the small stuff.”
Li Ming interrupted: "Just know that I can handle it by myself."
After hearing this, Jiang Huai looked at him with disapproval again.
But he did not make any other opposition. He just walked silently to the bed opposite Li Ming, sighed deeply, and helplessly held his forehead and said: "Whatever you say is what it is."
Li Ming suddenly felt complicated:
He had previously complained about Jiang Huai's stubbornness, but he didn't expect that now it would be Jiang Huai's turn to complain about him...
"Oh."
Li Ming laughed subconsciously at himself, but after this little episode, he felt much better.
"I'm sorry, Jiang Huai." Li Ming confessed apologetically, "I don't know why, but my emotions are really fluctuating now. It may be..."
Li Ming's voice stopped abruptly.
Jiang Huai looked up at him curiously, only to see Li Ming's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled into a ball, and he was muttering with his head down: "Could this be the reason?"
"What's the reason?" Jiang Huai asked.
Li Ming looked at Jiang Huai with an indescribable look.
He opened his mouth and closed it again, and finally made up his mind, closed his eyes and sighed: "I think we can ask the monster survivors about their feelings about their 'other self' next."
Jiang Huai's expression suddenly became serious:
“…This is not funny at all.”
After hearing this, Li Ming nodded to himself: "I think so too, just pretend I didn't say anything."
He stood up hurriedly and walked towards the bathroom while casually saying, "I'm going to wash up first. I want to go to bed early today."
"Li Ming, how about..."
Jiang Huai reached out his hand to Li Ming, hesitantly, but before he could get to the point, he was interrupted by Li Ming.
"No, don't even think about it." Li Ming said coldly with his back to Jiang Huai. His right hand was still on the bathroom door handle, but his left hand couldn't help but clenched.
After a long while, Li Ming smiled bitterly and turned back to comfort her: "Things will not always go smoothly, don't think too badly."
"……Um."
Jiang Huai answered in a low voice with a complicated look in his eyes.
The bathroom door slammed shut. Li Ming stood there, looking at his trembling fingers, feeling speechless and lost:
He shouldn't have said these words to Jiang Huai, but he said them anyway.
Li Ming could not personally experience the torture that the Rainy Night Domain inflicted on others, but he did feel the suppression of the Mirror Domain on himself at this moment.
The repeated encounters with new disasters, the repeated overdrawn talents, and the disgusting confrontations...all of this made Li Ming feel as if he was dragged into a long, wet and cold rainy season, moldy and smelly alone in a corner.
Li Ming washed his face with water tiredly.
Amid the sound of rushing water, he stared at the image in the mirror and muttered absentmindedly:
"Where the hell are you, Li Yixi?"
[Ahhh, it's all foreshadowing.]
[The old thief specifically asked the little witch to mention the pre-disaster, and it really makes sense. I was going to skip it, but after less than a few chapters, I went back to read it in frustration.]
[Last week we encountered the Lost Ones, this time we encountered the disaster in the 'pre-disaster' mode. Baishan, you old thief... do you think this is a complete collection of RPG side quests...]
[Can we meet the doctor now? QAQ]
[In the previous instance, Jiang Huai was the natural counter to this instance, and in this instance, Li Ming was the natural counter to this instance. Old thief, have you given the protagonist a way out? ]
…
"hiss."
As soon as he entered the forum, Li Ming found that the intensity of the discussion was beyond his imagination. He glanced at the titles of the discussion posts and found that most of the readers were complaining about Bai Shan's plot arrangement.
The more heated their discussion became, the more Li Ming could see their love for The Mist.
"It's quite unexpected."
Li Ming smiled bitterly with a pale face: "I didn't expect to encounter the disaster before the catastrophe."
He originally thought that these things were issues that people in the past or people in the middle of the catastrophe thought about. But he didn't expect that they would enter the ownerless realm again after leaving it...
Especially this ownerless area is a mirror area that can reflect the "monster in the mirror".
Li Ming slumped back in his chair exhausted.
He looked up at the pure white ceiling, and inexplicably felt a strange sense of peace. But to be honest: after leaving the Lingcheng environment, he did feel that his thoughts were much more normal.
"I shouldn't have told Jiang Huai..."
Li Ming once again thought of what he had just said in annoyance. If he was in a normal state, he would definitely be able to fool the person, but he didn't think of that at the time.
"Isn't this the case that I am holding back?"
Li Ming patted his cheek in annoyance and muttered, "It's over. Is it too late to explain now that 'there was no such thing' and 'I can do it alone'..."
Jiang Huai won't believe it.
When he thought of the outcome of the matter, Li Ming immediately fell on the table like a deflated balloon.
"I still have to think of a reason to bluff him..." Li Ming pulled himself together with difficulty. He moved the mouse and said to himself, "But now I should check out the newer chapters."
There have been relatively few things happening recently, so the number of comic updates is also small.
'Classmate, do you know Li Yixi?'
The latest chapters of the comics begin with Li Ming's questioning. Li Ming looks at the person he is talking to in the picture, and a hint of self-mockery appears on the corner of his mouth: He is so easily tricked...
Is he a good person?
[This tone doesn't sound friendly? But Wanwan also uses this tone, uh...]
【Something is wrong】
[What kind of domain did Lingcheng encounter? I don't believe that there is no domain in Lingcheng]
[Can the big guys figure it out? 】
…
“It comforts me a little.”
Seeing this, Li Ming smiled helplessly: "It seems that readers don't think Guo Kai is a bad person."
Their focus is also on the unknown areas of Lingcheng. Li Ming thought in a complicated way: To be honest, if he wasn't a character in a comic, he would like the plot to unfold in a magical way...
Li Ming scrolled down in a hurry. When the comic plot developed to the point where the two sides were confronting each other, the comments were unprecedentedly fierce:
[Fuck, so you are here to get some information? ]
[Backstabbed]
[Old thief, please don't whitewash yourself!!!]
[Another unowned territory. But the rules of this territory are so interesting.]
[Help, Li Ming has become a blind box! ]
…
"What do you mean Li Ming has become a blind box?"
Li Ming raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction. He scrolled through the pages and joked, "Li Ming has always been a blind box, okay?"
God knows what the old thief knows.
Before Baishan Cola announced him as the protagonist of the sequel, Li Ming never thought that he would be a hidden character.
