Chapter 4: The New World
Sometimes the world is so small.
Mu Jiujiu had imagined many times how he should face Jiang Chenghui when he met him again.
She thought she might be calm, and greeted him without any signs of the ordinary, or pretended to be a stranger, passing by without saying a word.
But at this moment, when she was really faced with this situation, she found herself in a state of confusion.
Time stands still.
Mu Jiujiu looked at the figure quietly, obviously every move was so familiar, but it was so unfamiliar.
He was talking to the girl next to him, smiling and smiling. The girl is also very beautiful, full of confidence in her words and deeds, and must be a very good person.
Jiang Chenghui seemed to hear the girl say something interesting, and he lowered his head very seriously and listened, smiling dotingly.
It's so gentle.
It was a completely different state when I was with myself.
In Mu Jiujiu's heart, something is disintegrating little by little. She heard the sound of her city crumbling, towers toppling, and the sky shattering.
But her face was as calm as ever.
Fan Chuxia looked at her worriedly on the side, and stopped talking.
So Mu Jiujiu smiled and said to her, "Don't worry, I'm fine." β
In fact, Mu Jiujiu has never understood those who can be friends after breaking up.
In her opinion, it is either not loving enough, or one party likes it deeply enough.
But for Mu Jiujiu, she can't do it.
After all, you want to have it if you look at it more.
Simply, I don't look at it.
A good meal is eaten without words.
Fan Chuxia put down and picked up the chopsticks, endured and endured, but still didn't hold back, and said angrily: "Why is he like this, he hasn't broken up for a few days, and he has a new love!?" That's too much, isn't it? β
"After all, they have broken up, and no matter what, it is someone else's freedom." Mu Jiujiu said flatly.
"No! I can't stand this, I'm going to ask for an explanation for you! Fan Chuxia threw this sentence and stood up angrily, just about to walk over there, but found that his hand was grabbed.
She looked back and Mu Jiujiu looked at her with a complicated expression.
"Early summer, don't go."
"Mu Jiujiu!"
"I'm serious." Mu Jiujiu stared at her and whispered.
Fan Chuxia looked at her eyes, there were really too many emotions in them.
She was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, calmed her grumpy mood, and returned to her seat.
"In early summer, I understand your feelings about my grievances, but I also want to be embarrassed."
I have looked for him so many times in a low voice, and there is no scum left of the self-esteem and pride.
I really don't want to wronged myself anymore.
"I won't go to him in the future, and you won't go to him, I have nothing to do with him."
Fan Chuxia glanced at her, nodded and said, "Okay." β
Probably no interest, this meal was eaten quickly. But it's still too long for Mu Jiu.
She waited for Fan Chuxia to come back from checkout, and then walked out with her.
The moment he walked out of the door, the ghost sent a god to the ground, and Mu Jiujiu looked in the direction of Jiang Chenghui.
happened to meet Jiang Chenghui's raised gaze.
The eyes of the two made contact in the air, and then, Mu Jiujiu turned his head and walked out of the door casually.
There was no looking back.
Jiang Chenghui stopped talking with a face, but the figure soon disappeared into the night.
"What's wrong, brother?" Jiang Ningxia on the side saw that Jiang Chenghui's face was wrong, and said suspiciously.
ββ¦β¦ All right. Jiang Chenghui said calmly, "I saw an acquaintance." β
****
In the past few days, Mu Jiujiu has been studying carefully in the dormitory to prepare for the next exam.
It is also rare to have such a time to calm down.
On the day of the exam, the morning light was faint, and Mu Jiujiu woke up early.
She washed and cleaned up as usual. After everything was sorted out, I took a look at the time and realized that it was still early.
Mu Jiujiu sat alone on the edge of the bed, his eyes blank and his brain empty.
She wasn't worried about the exam, after all, she was well prepared.
It's just that for some reason I suddenly thought of the past years.
Mu Jiujiu has been like all ordinary people since he was a child, reading and growing up. Nothing particularly prominent, but it doesn't bother parents either.
She struggled to recall some unusual things in her memory, and found that they were very few, not very vigorous.
Mediocre, numb.
There may also be some youth worth remembering, but those small fragments are hard to piece together, and they are gradually not worth mentioning in the long river of years.
Mu Jiujiu thought back carefully and found that the time he was most looking forward to life was when he was young and ignorant.
At that time, she longed for everything when she grew up, and she always felt that she could live a different and wonderful life like the protagonist of the anime and the life in the novel.
But the more I grew up, the more I realized that I was just an ordinary person.
Mu Jiujiu thought that maybe the reason why he was so obsessed with Jiang Chenghui was because he wanted to find a sustenance deep down.
She also wants to be the one who shines in the eyes of others.
Time passed quickly.
Mu Jiujiu prepared his pen and documents and left the dormitory early.
The light outside was dazzling, and the blazing sunlight cast mottled marks through the gaps in the leaves.
The light fell on Mu Jiujiu, which made her heart inexplicably pour some warmth and more strength.
She suddenly wanted that one day in the future, she could really like herself and recognize herself.
Be a wonderful and excellent person.
Even if that day would come late, she was willing to wait.
The exam time is only two hours, and when you answer the questions seriously, this is just a snap of your fingers for Mu Jiujiu.
The end of this exam means the beginning of summer vacation.
Mu Jiujiu booked a car, and after lunch, he took his luggage and started the journey home.
Just as she sent Fan Chuxia a message "I have gotten in the car", her mobile phone vibrated to remind her that she had received a text message.
When I opened it, I found that it was a courier message.
"Your parcel has arrived, please use the pick-up code in ...... to pick up. β
I don't seem to have bought anything lately.
Is that gaming helmet?
I don't know if it's as good as the staff said it will actually use.
After returning home and opening the door, Mu Jiujiu rushed into his mother's arms and hugged her tightly.
"It's all so big, and it's so clingy."
The mother was disgusted on the lips, but she was beautiful in her heart: "I made your favorite meal, come quickly." β
"Hmm!" Mu Jiujiu nodded vigorously.
Although his father has not returned home from a business trip, this long-lost "feeling of home" still warms Mu Jiujiu's heart.
"How's it going?" At the dinner table, my mother made routine inquiries.
Mu Jiujiu's chopsticks paused, and he looked up at his mother and smiled sweetly: "It's a great time, it's just happy." β
"Heartless, heartless, homesick at all." The mother pretended to complain, but was relieved to hear that she was doing well.
Mu Jiujiu went to pick up the courier after eating dinner in the evening.
The delivery box was a large one, and she struggled to carry it home and unpack it.
The first thing I picked up was the helmet, which was all black, with special strange patterns printed on it, and inexplicably a little more tall and mysterious.
The helmet is not heavy, and the reason why the delivery is so heavy is because there are instruction manuals as tall as a hill piled up underneath.
ββ¦β¦β
Why so many?
Mu Jiujiu briefly glanced at the operation process of the helmet and threw the manual aside.
She went back to her room, and after leaving her mother a phrase "I'll come into the house and memorize the words for a while," she carefully closed the door and gently locked it.
Still a little excited?
She followed the steps and put the helmet on.
The imaginary discomfort did not come, a slight electric shock, and after a moment of confusion, Mu Jiujiu found that he was in a white room, which was empty.
What's going on?
At this moment, a playful female voice suddenly sounded: "Dear cutie, you are on your way to World 111, and the danger assessment is medium." If your life is in danger or you feel unwell, please let me know and I will teleport you back as soon as possible. β
Mu Jiujiu couldn't help but mutter: "Are the current systems so affinity?" She was amazed that the system was like a human voice, but she missed some key words.
"In order to ease the psychological stress of human beings and make it more fun, I have countless versions for you to choose from. Cute Lori, Uncle Vicissitudes, Sexy Royal Sister, Sweet Girl ......"
"That's it for now." Mu Jiujiu hurriedly interrupted the system's chatter.
"Your destination has arrived, are you sure you're going to enter?"
Into the game?
"Okay."
"I wish you a safe return~" the system said sweetly.
"......" is too unlucky, isn't it? There's no way I'm going to be in danger of playing a game, right?
The world swirled.
When Mu Jiujiu came back to his senses, he had come to the bustling ancient street.
Unique buildings, people dressed in all kinds of costumes.
She looked down and noticed that her clothes had changed.
"Welcome to the Migration Realm, across the river castle."
"At present, it is known that this world is divided into two large realms, namely the Mito Realm and the Fuma Realm, if you have any doubts, please feel free to ask~" The system happily explained.
Mu Jiujiu didn't reply to it, she was completely immersed in the picture in front of her.
Whether it was the wind on her cheeks or the willow leaves fluttering in the wind above her head, everything was so real.
The city in front of you is full of traffic and horses, and people come and go endlessly. There are many shops and hawkers on the streets.
Mu Jiujiu stood on the side of the street, feeling the double shock of soul and vision.
"It's, it's amazingβ" She couldn't help but open her arms.
And in another part of the world.
S111 finally returned to the break room, only to find that the helmet in his storage ring was missing.
"Where's my helmet?"
"What helmet?" S007, who had returned with him, raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.
"It's my helmet in charge of that world!" S111 was depressed.
"It can't be that you threw it out as a weapon in the previous fight, right?" S007 said.
S111: "How is it possible, I'm not stupid!" β
S007: "Who threw the Amplification Stone as a blasting stone?" β
"I told you it was a misunderstanding...... Forget it, I'm not arguing with you, what now? S111 scratched his head in a rage.
S007: "I had to report to the technical department." β
S111: "My Points, Ahhhh
"That can't be helped, who told you to come accidentally." S007 showed a "pity" look.
"My fear now is that this thing is being picked up...... But it should be fine, there is my consciousness imprint on it, and ordinary people can't enter without my permission. β
"yes, then what are you worried about?" S007 smiled meaningfully as he comforted.
In the world in which Mujiu is located.
The mother knocked on the door of Mu Jiujiu's room, but there was no response.
"Is this child asleep?"
The mother thought for a while, and finally returned to her room, thinking, "This child is probably tired from riding in the car, so don't disturb her......"
And through that door.
Mu Jiujiu's room was already empty.
