Finally, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but whispered, "Wang Zhenzhen...what did you go through before? Can you tell us about it?"
"Just..." Wang Zhenzhen lowered her voice: "The head teacher asked me to stay after school to help me with my composition, and then he took a knife... I couldn't resist at all. He said he wanted to make me into some kind of work of art. It was really scary..."
The few of them gradually fell silent, with only the sound of slight breathing in the air.
"Well... well." Xiao Xiao raised her voice: "Su Mingan, it's not safe to go out now. How about we go to the second floor office of the head teacher tomorrow morning to check it out together?"
He didn't hear back.
"First Player, are you listening?" Xiao Xiao couldn't see clearly in the dark night, and thought that the other party was not satisfied with his address, so he changed to another one. His tone was earnest: "This world looks difficult. If your goal is to pass it perfectly, perhaps we can cooperate. After all, we are all people who have been through hardships together, and we can exchange some clues."
It was quiet all around.
He clenched his fists, thinking that although the other party was powerful, he didn't even respond to the rejection. Wasn't that a bit too contemptuous?
He stood up and walked over there: "First player, my skill is healing. In addition, I can also sign a blood contract. I also have a certain combat ability and will not hold you back..."
He paused.
Some faint light from the morning light slowly seeped into the room through the window, casting soft bands of light and slowly dispelling the darkness.
The night time is over.
The figure of the person sitting in the corner in front of me was gradually dyed by a hint of golden morning light.
The spot of light fell on his eyelashes, and below them were completely closed eyelids, white and moist in the morning light. The boy closed his eyes, leaned against the corner of the wall with his head tilted, looking defenseless.
…The other person fell asleep.
"He can fall asleep in this environment." Wang Zhenzhen came closer: "And I really can't wake him up. He is sleeping too soundly."
"…Do I have to be watched even when I sleep?"
The eyelashes of the person in front of him trembled suddenly, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes.
Su Mingan looked at the two boys and girls as if they were looking at giant pandas, and stood up from the ground.
"Ah." Wang Zhenzhen immediately stepped back, looking a little nervous.
Su Mingan walked to the door, moved the tables and chairs against the door, and opened the door.
“Squeak—!”
Large patches of morning light spread in along with the movement. It was suddenly bright outside in the morning. The fresh air rushed in, completely dispelling the musty and bloody smell in the room.
"——It is now half past six in the morning. Students are requested to arrive in the classroom before seven for morning reading."
The school's loud speaker blared.
Xiaoxiao coughed a few times, and a flash of sunlight came in, making him unable to open his eyes.
"First player, my suggestion just now..." Xiaoxiao said tentatively.
Su Mingan tilted his head: "Call me Su Mingan."
As soon as he said this, he paused and added softly, "Forget it... If you don't like calling it that, you can call it whatever you want."
Xiaoxiao was a little flattered.
"Ming, Ming'an." Xiao Xiao scratched her face somewhat unnaturally, but decided to follow the other party's original intention and called him by this name: "Regarding the request for cooperation..."
"What is your goal? To clear the level?"
"This, a perfect clearance is of course good, but there can only be one perfect clearance in a world." Xiao Xiao didn't dare to mention the term "perfect clearance" at all, and said very carefully: "The perfect clearance is definitely yours, I don't ask for it, I myself... just, I just want to live until the clearance..."
...He is really scared.
In every sense.
He was afraid of the millions of eyes on the other party.
Any of his actions would be magnified infinitely. If he made excessive demands, it might be viewed as "moral kidnapping" by so many viewers. If he behaved a little cowardly, he would be looked down upon by the audience... He was just an ordinary player who wanted to survive this level and get some points. He didn't want to show off in front of the world.
“…Don’t say that.”
Xiaoxiao was so frightened when she heard the other party say this very softly that her whole body tensed up.
Su Mingan's hand gently rested on his shoulder.
But Xiao Xiao just felt that this number one player was really wrong no matter how he looked at it...
"I have never denied your value. As a player, you are brave enough." Su Mingan smiled.
Facing this man's sudden gentle smile, Xiaoxiao felt her scalp tingling and her shoulder felt as if it had been burned by an iron. It didn't feel natural at all.
When he heard what the other person said, he thought for a moment that he was hard of hearing or that he had misheard because he hadn't slept all night.
"…There's nothing wrong with fighting for a goal. Although we are competitors in the dungeon now, on the front line of the world, our front will always be united…" Su Ming'an continued to speak softly.
His eyes were earnest and his tone was sincere, anyone could be fooled by him...but Xiaoxiao was an exception. He felt the other party's resistance when he said this.
…Because the fingers on his shoulders felt like steel hoops, and they really hurt him.
