"So you help Su Mingan for profit?" Lu Shu asked after a moment of silence.
"Not entirely, at the beginning." Noel smiled, his expression softened. "Then it was mixed with many other things, such as friendship, trust... Isn't it the same for you? In other words, everyone in our team became friends in this way."
"It starts with interests and ends with sincerity."
Lu Shu stared at Noel for a few seconds and said, "...I understand."
Su Lin next to him looked up again, then lowered his head pretending to be uninterested.
Noel took off his white gloves and reached out to Lu Shu.
"I was targeting you before because I thought you might have other intentions," Noel said. "But now, everything you've done in the Ninth World makes me feel that you are wholeheartedly working for the 'First Player', so I won't target you anymore."
He raised his palm slightly, revealing a smile as bright as the sun: "From now on, we can become the most trusted team allies and friends without any gaps. Lu Shu, do you agree?"
Lu Shu stared at the hand that Noel stretched out.
After listening to Noel's analysis and confession, he realized that Noel was completely different from normal people - Noel's thinking was extremely rational, with a high degree of logic and purpose, and he could even express his feelings very clearly. It was just that Noel's sunny smile could cover up his coldness, making him quite friendly, making people think he was an optimistic and cheerful angel.
In fact, simple, enthusiastic, bright and cheerful - if Noel was really this kind of person, how could he adapt to the underworld copy world so well and always firmly occupy the position of the second player.
The naturally enthusiastic little sun is only a part of him. His rationality guides his sensibility and at the same time amplifies his sensibility - it allows him to make extremely emotional actions with an extremely rational mentality, and allows him to risk his life for a future and even sacrifice himself to protect Su Mingan.
This kind of rationality, when truly expressed, will be more sincere and enthusiastic than most emotional people.
“Sure.” Lu Shu stretched out his hand, shook Noel’s hand, and stared into his blue eyes: “Let’s celebrate the New Year together.”
Lu Shu didn't dislike this kind of people. Once they confirmed their friendship, they would not easily give it up because of their fickle feelings. In terms of relationships, people like Noel were the most steadfast.
Noel smiled with curved eyebrows.
"That's great." He smiled, "We will be good friends forever."
…
In the room on the second floor.
Su Mingan sat on the bed and closed the monitoring interface.
He had previously placed his two followers, Jasmine and Qingqing, in the villa. For safety reasons, he installed surveillance cameras in the lobby of the villa.
Therefore, he listened to the entire conversation between Lu Shu and Noel.
Leaning on the bed, he stared at the black and white ceiling. His vision was filled with liquid light. His head was buzzing and he could hear vague whispers.
【Asa.】
【…Asa.】
…The aftereffects are gradually taking effect. Emotional resonance is not an easy hurdle to overcome. Even Noah and Sen died because of this. This is a pain that can almost tear the soul apart.
He stood up, walked to a cabinet, opened the drawer, and revealed a square vermilion box inside.
His hand paused on the box, and after hesitating for three seconds, he opened it with a "click".
The box was opened, revealing fifty solid objects that looked like roses neatly arranged inside. The surface was glowing with a rich light, like vermilion gems.
Su Mingan held the box, sat at the head of the bed, and stared at the box for a while.
His eyes wandered around the box, drifting to these solid objects, and then quickly drifted away.
Finally, he pulled his eyes back and fixed them on the fifty rose bloods. They were like the tempting fruit in the Garden of Eden. Looking at these rose bloods, his breathing became more and more rapid, and his fingers pressing the box harder and harder.
With a "click", he controlled his palm and pressed down, closing the box.
These were the rose blood he brought out from the Ninth World. Considering that this was a mental stabilizer, he made some of it himself. Rose blood was a good healing item when not used excessively, and it was naturally effective for Su Mingan's condition.
But after hesitating for a long time, he put the box of rose blood back.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, as long as his mental state was not so severe that he could not move, he did not want to try this drug. Just a moment ago, he remembered the death of the person who overdosed on Rose Blood that his clone had seen in Hawk Dog. It was a kind of madness that smeared his own blood all over the bathroom.
He fell on the bed, endured the whispers in his ears, and fell into a deep sleep.
…
Lu Shu pushed open the room.
This room is mainly decorated with wood, with calligraphy and dragon paintings hanging on the walls. There are dozens of short jackets and Hanfu hanging in the mahogany cabinet, and a pot of succulents on the windowsill.
This is Lu Shu's room on the third floor of the villa. Su Mingan's villa is very big, enough for many people to live here.
Lu Shu took out a cowhide notebook, opened it carefully, and flipped through the pages one by one.
There are many diaries he wrote in the notebook.
…
[Su Mingan and Noel went to the amusement park and didn’t call me (sketching with pouting lips)]
[The forum posted a photo of them at the amusement park. Perhaps only someone as smart as Noel could become Su Mingan's comrade-in-arms.]
…
[In the seventh world, Praia, Su Mingan and Luna have reached a cooperation agreement. It has nothing to do with me. ]
【It would be best if more people could help him. 】
…
[Celebrating the New Year with Lin Yin and Su Mingan, taking a hot spring bath, watching fireworks, everyone is very happy (happy sketch)]
[No one told him that the lucky number he drew was put there by us on purpose. This way, he should be in a good mood.]
…
[Su Mingan joined the Peak Alliance and called me, not Noel (smiling sketch)]
【Very good. 】
…
[I calculated that when I return from the Ninth World, it will be just in time for the seventh day of the Chinese New Year, so we can celebrate the New Year together (sticky drawing of sticking out tongue)]
【I hope I am still alive by then. 】
…
He turned to a blank page, picked up a pen, and wrote:
[February 7. Su Mingan said I was very important. Noel said he wanted to be my good friend forever.]
[Very happy.]
【I hope everyone can survive. 】
