Chapter 14: The Last Night

"Please rest assured, I have no ill intentions, I just came to talk to you, I apologize to you for what happened before, my companion was too aggressive." Selena's tone was sincere.

Qiu Li was about to put away the lunch box in her hand when she heard this, but she saw Selena quickly take the lunch: "However, I'm really hungry, thank you." ”

The wind outside the door had stopped, the rain had become much quieter, and the crystal lamps in the hall had stopped shaking.

At the dining table, Selena took out a sandwich and took a bite of it, and Akiri obviously saw that her expression was a little happy.

"I just came down to look for our companions, smelled the aroma, and then came to take a look, and found you in the kitchen."

Selena took the last bite of the sandwich and took another sip of water, before she was satisfied with explaining to Akiri, who had been silent.

Qiu Li thought to herself, the so-called talking to me is actually an excuse to eat when she is hungry and wants to eat.

When they were in the basement, there were still three of them, and she asked with some curiosity, "Aren't you together?" So late? Where can your companions go? ”

Selena's face showed a trace of sadness, but it was fleeting.

Outside, the sound of the rain gradually became quieter, and the lights in the hall were like day. In this weird world, there is a bit of warmth.

Selena had just eaten, leaning back in her chair, and suddenly had the desire to talk, and the NPC in front of her was looking at her with a curious expression, the food cooked by this NPC was delicious, and people were not so annoying.

I have no contact with her when I get out of this copy, so let's treat her as a safe tree hole.

She smiled bitterly and sorted out her thoughts: "I seem to have had a dream just now......"

Selena told everything that had just happened, and she explained it as a dream, after all, it was too profound for NPCs to understand.

Akiri heard a key word in her words: shrine maiden.

The tie and potion in the arms, and the prefix of the identification subtitles all have the word shrine maiden.

She didn't know the history of the castle, so it seemed that she had to ask David, who was his family's house.

Selena sighed, "When I woke up, Ida and John were gone. ”

"Could it be that they went out and saw you sleeping, so they didn't tell you?" Akiri gave an answer to the possibilities that NPCs could think of.

Selena shook her head: "Ida won't do this, okay, thank you for your hospitality, and then I will stay in room 204 until your line is repaired and the bus is opened." ”

After talking, she was much more relaxed, and she had a better impression of Qiuli.

She stood up, the corners of her mouth raised: "Qiu Li, the food you cooked is delicious." ”

Akiri pretended to be happy: "It's good if the guests can like it, and they will resume their normal diet tomorrow, but ......"

She paused: "I hope there won't be any more conflicts." ”

She looked Selena in the eye and waited for her reply.

Selena was stunned for a moment, her light brown eyes were a little confused, and she whispered, "It's like you have an autonomous consciousness." ”

"But, how is that possible?"

She shook her head and replied with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as others don't mess with me." ”

Qiu Li looked at her back, and put down a big stone in her heart.

What she said should be true, as the last surviving player to go against the NPC at this moment, there is no point in going against the NPC again.

Akiri can return to her small room with peace of mind.

She briskly reached the hallway, and suddenly remembered that there was still a cook in room 202, and she scratched the back of her head, there was no other place for her to live at the moment, and the janitor's room was ruined.

Just let her stay there.

I yawned, and the watch showed that it was half past three in the morning. She sniffed the smell on her body, a little disgusted, took a shower and changed clothes, and tossed until four o'clock.

Lying on her warm little bed, Qiu Li actually had a feeling of being in a different world.

Sniffing the familiar smell of pillows, before she knew it, she had made this strange castle her home.

The thought crossed her mind for a moment, exhaustion hit, and after a few seconds, she fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, the wind and waves were calm, and the long-lost blue sky and white clouds appeared in the sky.

Qiu Li still woke up on time, pushed open the small window, and looked at the flowers and plants in the garden, the air was fresh and pleasant, as if all the haze had dissipated.

The stagnant water on the ground was slowly seeping down, and the water droplets hanging from the leaves on the branches were crystal clear, and she took a deep breath.

After washing up, change into a new chef's uniform.

The kitchen was still spotless.

Brew coffee first, in the aroma of coffee, she began to make dumplings, she remembered that when she was in the main star, everyone had a dispute between the north and the south dumplings during the New Year's Festival, and the northern dumplings were the golden oil, but the ritual sense of the festival was to make dumplings.

She is a southerner, but studying in the north has also been infected with this habit.

Mustard meat filling, compared to the leek egg filling in the north, this is her favorite taste, referred to as the north-south merger.

Now that the dough is kneaded in the copy, a food processor is used, and with the times, Qiu Li is very comforted.

The level of mechanical automation here is significantly more high-tech than that of the main star, but it is not beyond the scope of cognition.

After kneading the dough, press the dumpling wrapper option, and the pressed dumpling wrapper will be automatically spit out one by one, and it won't take long for the plate to be piled high.

The stuffing here has been reconciled, and in order to have more soup, the meat skin jelly was specially added.

The speed of making dumplings and autumn pears is extremely fast, and after ten minutes, the dumplings that are as chubby as a ruler are wrapped, and one hundred are neatly packed.

Compared with boiling dumplings, Qiu Li loves fried dumplings more, the pan is brushed with oil, the dumplings are put in and lined up, listening to the sound of the la, the corners of her mouth involuntarily rise.

The fireworks in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of mortals. She silently changed the word "world" to "copy" in her heart.

The next day, when nothing happened, the cook resumed her daily work, and the janitor's body was covered with a white cloth and placed in the utility room, which was to be brought back by the bus when traffic resumed.

The basement door was closed and became a no-go area, and everyone automatically ignored this area.

"My dear Akiri, everything will be fine tomorrow." There was no sadness on the cook's face, but she tried her best to comfort the dignified Qiuli.

In the kitchen room, Qiu Li sat on a small bench, handling fresh lilies, and she looked up at the cook: "You say, will Tracey be dead?" ”

The cook acted as if she hadn't heard what she said, as if she had no authority to ask a question, and automatically filtered her question.

She then asked, "Do you know about the existence of shrine maidens?" ”

The lights in the room flickered, and she quickly closed her mouth and continued to peel vegetables with her head down.

Everything seems to be starting to be normal, Selena, the only remaining guest in room 204, is very well-behaved, almost without leaving the door, and the food is also sent by the chef and put at the door for self-picking.

The day passed without danger until night came again......

The street lamps in the garden have been damaged by yesterday's wind and rain, and the outside is pitch black, and the sound of insects that can be heard in the past has disappeared without a trace.

Akiri sat on a chair in the small room, all the props on her body, and at the same time her heart was uneasy.

As far as she can remember, never before have so many NPCs survived the ravages of players.

If there's a change, then tonight is key.

Will the game be so forgiving?

She waited quietly for the seventh day to come, and for her, it was the first copy she had ever lived since the crossing (if she hadn't died tonight).

How can destroyed buildings be restored? How do dead NPCs respawn? Will the living NPCs such as the Cook Lady be restarted by the data?

Will I be refreshed and lose myself?
