Chapter 16: I'm a Gamer, Too
When he was resting at night, Ji Rong was very merciful and untied the lock on Ruan Qiao's hand. It's a pity that she hasn't breathed a sigh of relief yet, and she was held in her arms as a teddy bear again.
"......" Ruan Qiao, whose limbs were stiff while being held, looked at the ceiling, feeling that he would be exhausted if he was entangled like this by Ji Rong again.
"Good night." Ji Rong was happy, and at this moment, his face was so full that people wanted to beat him first.
“...... Good night. Ruan Qiao rolled his eyes, feeling that Ji Rong sometimes looked like a five or six-year-old child.
A dreamless night.
Early the next morning, Ji Rong still wanted to lie in bed with Ruan Qiao in his arms, but the guards didn't give him a chance, and rushed in after knocking on the door.
"Boss, something has happened."
The guard stood outside the bedroom door and said in a loud voice, "The north gate of the manufacturing area has been attacked by monsters such as Qiqi, and we need to lead your organization." ”
Listening to the impatient voice of the guards outside the door, Ji Rong sat up with his messy hair on his head, his face gloomy.
Glancing sideways at Ruan Qiao, who yawned, he exhaled and couldn't help but wrap his arms around her waist and say, "When I come back, don't leave the house." ”
"Yes." Ruan Qiao agreed more than anyone else, and jumped off the bed as soon as Ji Rong left.
This time, Ji Rong didn't lock her up, allowing her to move around the room freely.
There were already guards on the table who had set up breakfast, and Ruan Qiao sat at the table, thinking about finding a chance to leave here while eating.
"Hello." Just as she was about to drink a glass of milk, a guard walked in from outside the door, walked straight to her and said, "Interested in talking?" ”
Ruan Qiao raised his eyes, making sure he hadn't seen this guard.
The guard looked ordinary, but there was a small cross scar in the corner of his eye, which added a bit of anger to his otherwise ordinary appearance.
"Hello." Ruan Qiao glanced back inadvertently, the guard who had been standing behind her had retreated, and now only she and the man in front of her were left at the table.
"I don't seem to know you." Smiling lightly at the guard, Ruan Qiao put down the cup in his hand, raised his legs and folded them, leaning lazily on the back of his chair.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself." The guard pulled away the chair in front of Ruan Qiao and sat down, not caring at all that this was still Ji Rong's home, "My name is Pei Weixin, and I am the head of the guard here." ”
Captain of the Guard? No wonder you can break away from the other guards.
Ruan Qiao lowered his eyelids quietly, and quickly looked at Shi Pei Weixin and said, "My name is Ruan Qiao." ”
"That's all for yourself." Seeing that Ruan Qiao was still good at talking, Pei Weixin laughed happily, placed the fingers of his hands naturally crossed together in front of the table, straightened his back and looked directly at Ruan Qiao and said, "I'll get straight to the point, Ruan Qiao, you're a 'player', right?" ”
!!!
Ruan Qiao subconsciously raised the corners of her mouth, her originally water-colored apricot eyes gradually became more sharp, she also looked directly at Pei Weixin, and nodded lightly after thinking about it quickly in her mind, "En." ”
Since the other party can ask her with such fanfare, there must already be a basis.
"Ah, sure enough! I've finally found a player just like me! After getting Ruan Qiao's answer, Pei Weixin exhaled happily, looking at Ruan Qiao's eyebrows and eyes bent.
Putting the smile lines in the corners of Pei Weixin's eyes into the bottom of his eyes, Ruan Qiao saw that he was not smirking and smiled back at face.
No matter what time it is, most of the things that come up in a hurry are problematic, and she hasn't even reached the point where she can't get to the point where she can't get to the point where she's stunned when she hears that it's a human player.
"I've been here for almost two years, and it's really crazy not to meet a player who can talk as well as I do." Seeing that Ruan Qiao's appearance didn't seem to be too vigilant, the smile in the corner of Pei Weixin's eyes became more and more real, and he gently slapped the table, propped up his chin and said, "Sometimes I even feel that I am originally a person from this world, and the previous world is just my fantasy." ”
He paused, and when he saw Ruan Qiao listening intently to what he was saying, he asked again, "By the way, can you tell me what your mission is?" ”
"What about yours?" Ruan Qiao didn't even raise the corner of his eye, and asked rhetorically.
"I'm going to stay here for three years." Pei Weixin sighed with his mouth open, sat down in his seat from his previous new appearance, and said to Ruan Qiao, "What the hell is this mission." Fortunately, I finally survived for two years, and after another year, I would be able to leave this scene for the next mission. ”
Ruan Qiao nodded noncommittally to Pei Weixin's answer, and did not answer his previous question, but continued to ask, "How did you know that I was a player?" ”
When asked this, Ruan Qiao's attitude was very casual, as if he only said it casually.
But Pei Weixin looked much more excited.
"Do you remember that madman yesterday?" Pei Weixin, who had been observing Ruan Qiao's expression, stood up, lowered his eyes and looked down at Ruan Qiao, and said with some regret, "He is also a player, but he has completely gone crazy because he has been in this scene for five years." ”
"Five years?" Ruan Qiao looked over and looked interested.
"That's right, as long as the mission is not completed, we have to stay in the world until the mission is completed." Pei Weixin spread his hands and said, "I heard that he is the fourth batch of players, what about you?" ”
He paused, and without waiting for Ruan Qiao to speak, he added, "I'm the fifth batch of players." ”
Is there still a batch for this?
Ruan Qiao was slightly stunned, and then she faintly remembered that the mechanical male voice had mentioned something similar in her consciousness at the beginning.
"I'm in the sixth batch." Ruan Qiao said.
"That's pretty much it." Pei Weixin sighed, leaned on the table and said, "The sixth batch of players have all come in, my task has not been completed yet, and it is estimated that the fifth batch is the slowest." ”
Ruan Qiao tilted his head, always feeling that Pei Weixin was waiting for him to say something, so after thinking about it, he simply followed his words and said, "Do players still have batches?" ”
"Of course." Pei Weixin immediately raised his head and said, "We have a total of six batches of players, but according to the batch, you should be a rookie player, and the task you are carrying out now should also be a relatively simple rookie level, right?" ”
When Pei Weixin said this, his eyelids blinked a few times faster than just now, and his eyes changed from bright to cloudy.
Ruan Qiao's gaze finally fell on his crossed fingers, and he chuckled, "I don't know much about the newcomer level you said, what is the approximate difficulty?" ”
"Like helping someone do something, or finding something." Always feeling that there was a pair of sharp eyes looking back and forth on him, Pei Weixin raised his head and noticed Ruan Qiao's dark and sharp eyes, touched his nose and said.
When a person is nervous, the eyelids will flutter much faster than usual, and there will be many small movements in the hands, such as pulling the corners of the clothes and touching the tip of the nose.
This Pei Weixin is obviously hiding something from her.
