Chapter 88
Mo Yi stared at the information on the phone screen and was slightly stunned.
Jiang Yuanrou came back from the dungeon?
His dark eyes lit up a little, and his heart moved slightly.
If Jiang Yuanrou and Jiang Yuanbai were both in the game during this period, then the copy they experienced would last for at least half a month - this would be very valuable information.
I clicked my fingertips on the screen and went back to the [Yes] past.
Mo Yi thought for a moment, then sent another message:
【Are you two okay?】
Jiang Yuanrou replied quickly, the message was very short, with only two words:
【Alive.】
——But this is not a direct answer to his question.
Mo Yi frowned. Before he could figure out something, Jiang Yuanrou sent her next text message:
【We need to meet.】
Mo Yi's fingers that stayed on the top of the phone screen paused, then moved away, and supported on the border of the phone without replying.
Wen Chen looked over with some awareness.
Seeing Mo Yi looking worried, he took a step forward, his light gray eyes slightly closed, and he asked slowly, "What's wrong?"
Mo Yi frowned, raised his head, raised the screen of his phone to Wen Chen, and then whispered:
"Jiang Yuanrou asked me to see her."
Wen Chen glanced at the screen of his phone indifferently, and his indifferent eyes hurriedly passed by, and then re-enacted on Mo Yi's thoughtful side face, with his eyes darkening:
"Don't you want to go?"
Mo Yi shook his head, his light-colored lips pursed into straight lines:
"I just feel a little uneasy, after all... you know, my identity is a bit sensitive."
Wen Chen nodded, reached out and took off the apron he tied, put it on the back of the chair beside him, his broad and slender shoulders were slightly stretched, and there was no expression on his extremely aggressive face:
"I'll go with you."
Mo Yi glanced at him thoughtfully - although the fog in the real world seemed to be unable to fully display his abilities, based on the force value he showed in the second dungeon, he could indeed have more and more security guarantees with him.
At this moment, he glanced at the apron hanging on the back of the chair - the cotton and linen texture was dyed with contrasting colors, and there were a few lively cartoon characters smiling.
...Super ugly.
Mo Yi's eyes stayed on it for a moment, and his eyes were a little subtle: "Did you buy it?"
After all, he still knew that there were some items in his apartment... This one would definitely not be included anyway.
Wen Chen: "..."
In fact, it was given by the supermarket downstairs for an event.
Before he could explain, Jiang Yuanrou's text message arrived again: [Is it OK to meet under the fitness villa?]
Mo Yi lowered his dark eyes, glanced at the mobile phone screen quickly, and then sent the word "OK".
He looked at Wen Chen, and his facial expression returned to his usual indifference and gentleness. Mo Yi turned his head and smiled at Wen Chen:
"Let's go."
When he arrived downstairs of the fitness villa, Jiang Yuanrou was indeed standing there waiting for Mo Yi.
Mo Yi felt a little relieved.
The night was thick and deep cold, and the cold white lights of the street lights sprinkled, pulling her slender figure long and looking a lot thinner. The wide windbreaker covered her body, making her look a bit shaped and erect.
Mo Yi approached and found that Jiang Yuanrou's expression was very bad.
Her skin was pale and almost blood-colored, and her chin seemed to be a little sharper, making her light brown eyes look bigger and brighter, and under her eyes were very thick blue and black, which seemed to have not had a good rest for several days.
When Jiang Yuanrou saw Mo Yi coming, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:
"Sorry for asking you to come in such a hurry... In fact, I'm ready to not come."
——After all, the two of them have not been working together for a long time, and they are far from trusting each other. They know this well.
Mo Yi shook his head and showed an alienated smile:
"Don't mind."
Jiang Yuanrou seemed to be a little confused. She took a deep breath, turned around and opened the door of the villa, then turned her head and said to him:
"Let's go, the house says."
As she said, she turned around and walked into the villa first. The lights inside were instantly bright, making her back look even more petite and thin.
At this moment, soft mist swayed on Mo Yi's palm and gently rubbed his fingertips, half soothing and half intimate.
Mo Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he followed Jiang Yuanrou into the house, and then closed the door behind him.
Jiang Yuanrou walked straight to the sofa where she was resting in the house, then sank half of her body in, her pale face with unconcealed tiredness.
She took out a box of cigarettes and used her slender and thin fingers to twist one to her fingertips. Suddenly, she paused, as if she realized Mo Yi's existence, so she raised her head and looked at him:
"Do you mind..."
Mo Yi's eyes paused under the thick blue and black under Jiang Yuanrou's eyes, and then quietly shook his head.
After receiving a positive answer, Jiang Yuanrou half-hung her head, her long chestnut hair gently hangs down her white neck, and a slight metal collision sound of the lighter, and a bright light flashed on her fingertips.
The smell of tobacco spread, and the light green smoke slowly rose, blurring her facial features and eyebrows.
Mo Yi waited patiently.
Jiang Yuanrou looked obviously much more relaxed. She raised her hand without cigarettes and rubbed her temples, then said:
"The last copy of Yuanbai and I survived for fourteen days."
Mo Yi's expression remained unchanged, but he just made a rough calculation in his heart - the reality and the time in the game pass by one to two, so in this way, they should have returned the second day after he returned to the real world.
His expression was still faint, waiting for Jiang Yuanrou's next words.
Her fingertips trembled slightly twice, and she sent the slender cigarette to her lips and took a deep breath. A little red fire lit up, and the blue smoke spit out from her light-colored lips, and her face looked a little depressed.
Jiang Yuanrou showed a reluctant smile on her face: "Do you remember our conversation after the end of your last copy?"
Mo Yi nodded.
Jiang Yuanrou shook the ash and continued, "At that time, I told you that the game copy and the reality copy are connected, but everyone who searches for connections is buried in the copy, so I suggest you better not take risks."
She paused, raised her eyes and looked at Mo Yi. The expression on her face dimmed, and her light brown eyes looked deep and solemn:
"But you went anyway. After you got off the plane, I didn't ask you about the relevant information. First, this game will definitely not allow your players to leak such critical information. Second, I'm more worried that if this news can be told, then we will be at great risk in the next copy."
Jiang Yuanrou showed a self-deprecating bitter smile on her face:
"Although I've been entangled with this game for so long, I'm still a coward in my heart."
Mo Yi slowly took a step forward, his fingers hanging beside him tightened slightly, searching his dry intestines to find a few words of comfort.
As if in order to suppress the surging emotions in his heart, Jiang Yuanrou took a sip of the cigarette very quickly, then choked by the strong and spicy smell, and began to cough violently.
Mo Yi picked up a cup of warm water from the automatic water dispenser beside him and pushed it to Jiang Yuanrou.
She stopped coughing, with a trace of sick flush on her pale face, and a little bit of physiological tears on the corners of her red eyes. She thanked her in a hoarse voice, and then snatched the cigarette between her fingers in the ashtray on the table:
"...I'm not actually very used to the smell of smoke, but the cigarettes I smoked several times the time I came back in the past decade."
Mo Yi pursed his lips, and he noticed keenly that from the beginning, Jiang Yuanrou's words were all "me" rather than "we".
Where is Jiang Yuanbai?
He pressed his doubts on his heart, and his face remained calm, staring at Jiang Yuanrou quietly, waiting for her next words.
Only Jiang Yuanrou said:
"Yuan Bai was very close to me when he was a child, but when he grew up, he gradually became distant. I wanted to learn to manage the company, and he also had his own dreams. After I was bound by this escape game, I became even more deliberately alienated Yuan Bai... I am really an incompetent sister."
She lowered her eyes and stared at the lights that were broken and floating in the water cup, took a deep breath, and continued:
"After the first dungeon, he used his own relationship to find the relationship between games and reality - he has indeed become full of wings in recent years, and he has actually hidden me strictly."
Mo Yi was stunned, and his expression became solemn in an instant.
After finding out the relationship between the real world and the game copy, he chose to start the membership test immediately. So... what about Jiang Yuanbai?
Since Jiang Yuanbai made a series of actions without telling Jiang Yuanrou, he probably didn't know the hidden crisis here. Then... the choice he made was very influenced by the biased language in this game, and even guided and manipulated.
After all, put your heart in mind. If Mo Yi didn't know that all the friends of Jiang Yuanrou were missing after exploring the truth, he might have chosen not to start the membership test for the time being, but would wait until he gained more chips and experience before starting.
Jiang Yuanrou's fingertips trembled slightly, and the warm water in the cup in her palm had slowly cooled down, and a rippling ripples appeared as her movements.
She lowered her eyes and said calmly:
"In the last dungeon, although we were in the end, Yuan Bai did not complete the membership challenge."
Mo Yi was stunned. The membership matter... the game does not allow players to say it, but now Jiang Yuanrou can actually say it without any obstacles, that means-
Jiang Yuanrou raised her eyes and looked at him, showing a pale smile:
Chapter completed!
