I picked up a boyfriend in the infinite game

Everyone looked at them, either with curiosity or hostility. Song Guicheng blinked his eyelashes twice quickly and made a decision in an instant.

He lightly pressed the right hand behind Xie Siyou, frowned at the puzzled Chen Kexin, and smiled briefly: "I used a prop when I entered the dungeon, which will guide me to collect clues."

When he smiled, his eyes were like the gentle moon, and he looked very sincere. His slightly wrinkled brows revealed a bit of distress, as if he didn't want to reveal his secret, but had to tell it because of the situation.

Chen Kexin was shaken by that smile, her face turned red for a moment, and she felt annoyed secretly: "That... hug..."

She was about to apologize when Song Guicheng interrupted her.

"It's alright," he waved his hand nonchalantly, "I was going to tell you these clues anyway, after all, we need to work together to pass the dungeon."

The players at the table cast their gazes at him even more fiercely, and the hostility was replaced by surprise and expectation. After all, anyone who could obtain such a powerful item was either a big shot or a potential big shot.

Xie Siyou's eyes rolled slightly, and he immediately approached Song Guicheng, complaining unhappily: "Brother, why didn't you tell me!"

He was not stupid. When Chen Kexin said that their teleportation location was directly at the hotel, he knew that he was in trouble.

The different teleportation locations meant that there was an information gap between their teammates and the two of them. Their identities and positions became difficult to define, and they were easily regarded as outliers.

However, he and Song Guicheng were not strong enough to leave their teammates and clear the dungeon on their own. In this situation, being treated as an outlier was a terrifying thing.

Fortunately, they met Zhao Siyu and Zhao Siming as soon as they came in and confirmed the identity of the player. Song Guicheng reacted quickly and explained that the different teleportation locations were props that prompted him to collect clues, and resolved this trust crisis in a few words.

Xie Siyou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and slapped himself twice in his heart: There is no price for talking too fast, and the time to gamble with your life is now.

A player named Zhang Yuncheng urged: "So brother, have you found any clues?" He was full of anxiety and habitually reached for the cigarette in his pocket, but found nothing.

It was late when they entered the dungeon, and they only had time to look around the upper and lower floors. All the doors were locked, and the hostess of the hotel didn't say a word except to greet them at the beginning.

The rate of clue collection is almost zero, and all I can do is sit on a chair and wait, which is really frustrating.

Song Guicheng said: "I waited for a truck at an intersection some distance from the village. The man driving the truck was a resident of the village..."

Before he could finish his words, the door to the inner room was pushed open again and the hostess came out carrying two trays.

The players' conversations instantly disappeared, and the air suddenly fell silent. Everyone stared at the hostess's actions in silence.

Song Guicheng smelled the strong scent of cider again.

His eyes passed over the hostess's plump face and looked towards the half-open door. In the flickering firelight, he could only vaguely see the closet with knives and spatulas hanging on it, a bucket, and a kettle, all of which were ordinary kitchen utensils.

The hostess silently placed dinner on a tray in front of everyone: two slices of bread, a small piece of butter, a small bowl of boiled edamame, and two slices of bacon.

Considering the local development situation, this was a pretty good dinner.

After Song Guicheng sincerely thanked him, he skillfully spread the butter on the bread, ignoring the hostess's ambiguous gaze.

He put a piece of bacon on the bread and asked, "Madam, it's dark outside and your husband hasn't come back yet. Is there any danger?"

The hostess paused as she placed the tableware on Xie Siyou's table and replied in a low voice: "Thank you for your concern. He went into the mountains to hunt. It's normal for him not to come back for a few days."

After saying that, he continued to serve food to the next person.

Seeing this, Chen Kexin also tried to talk to her, but the hostess only responded to her with silence, and even revealed a bit of impatience.

Song Guicheng took a bite of the bread, and the smoky smell mixed with the salty taste rushed straight to his forehead. He swallowed it without changing his expression, and watched the interaction between the two people with his peripheral vision.

The hostess seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards girls. She was smooth and graceful in placing the dinner for the men, and she would considerately put the knife and fork in the right place. But she was rude to the girls, just putting them down and then turning away. She also ignored the girls who thanked her.

In addition to Song Guicheng who noticed this, the always silent Wang Huixiao also noticed it. She looked at the hostess's differential treatment with an expressionless face, and a look of disdain appeared in her eyes.

After the dinner for the 13 players was served, the hostess was about to leave when Song Guicheng suddenly called out to her, "Madam, won't you eat with us?"

The players at the table didn't expect him to do this, and the hostess obviously didn't expect it either. She wiped her hand on the rag and then touched her hair.

The hostess's hands were very rough, becoming thick due to constant labor, and each finger was full of strength.

There was still no expression on her face, she just said calmly: "No, thank you, I'll just eat in the kitchen."

The door rang again, and the hostess's figure disappeared in front of everyone, and the originally silent air began to flow again.

Zhao Siming whispered to Zhao Siyu: "Sister, look, Song Guicheng is courting the NPC again."

In the "Ankang Orphanage" copy, he likes to act like a good person, likes to give warmth and love. It is because of this character that he is finally betrayed by himself and his sister.

Thinking of this, an obscure look appeared in his eyes, which were mostly blocked by his bangs.

Zhao Siyu forked the two slices of smoked meat from her plate onto Zhao Siming's plate and twirled the fork casually: "Then wish him success."

Some NPCs are the opposite of the dungeon boss. It is unwise to start to improve your impressions before you know the dungeon background and are not sure of the NPC's position. Sometimes it will only backfire and make you die faster.

Song Guicheng didn’t know what the siblings opposite were whispering about. He only noticed one thing: when the hostess faced the men around her, she would subconsciously start to tidy up her appearance.

I wiped my hands and combed my hair in order to try my best to show them that I was clean and tidy.

Song Guicheng was confused and couldn't be sure whether the hostess's behavior was out of habit or for the purpose of seducing men.

According to Allen's description, the male owner of the hotel was not very kind to her. In this case, it is normal for her to want to marry someone else.

He slowly swallowed the last bite of bread, put away his scattered thoughts, and continued what the hostess had just interrupted: "The villager said that there is a miracle apple tree in this hotel, which will produce very delicious apples."

Song Guicheng spoke in a flat tone, not realizing at all what shocking news he had released. It was like throwing sodium into water, causing a series of reactions.

"The main task is to find the apple."

"At first I was puzzled. It didn't look like there was a fruit and vegetable market in this village, and they asked us to find apples."

"Now is the season when apple trees bear fruit."

"It shouldn't be that easy. I don't know what kind of apples the mission requires. Besides, maybe this hotel isn't the only one that has apple trees. Others may have them in their homes as well."

"It may be that you have a fixed mindset. Maybe it's just as simple as finding an apple."

“I wish it were that simple.”

……

The players chattered for a while, while Song Guicheng silently ate boiled edamame. The edamame was boiled with only a little salt, which was very refreshing and neutralized the greasy smell of smoked meat.

Xie Siyou looked at the piece of bread and smoked meat left on Song Guicheng's plate and asked, "Brother, can't you eat it?"

It was normal that he couldn't eat. The bread was dry and hard, the smoked meat tasted strange, and there was still a fishy smell after being marinated. Anyway, he ate with a painful look on his face, as if he was going to die heroically in the next second.

He suggested to Song Guicheng: "Just eat the bread with the edamame. If you ignore the taste of these two, it still tastes good."

Song Guicheng was speechless: Child, do you know what you are saying?

He patted Xie Siyou's head and said, "I plan to save some for Xiaohua. She hasn't tasted any of this yet."

Since Xiaohua was "born", she has been eating boiled pork slices, braised spareribs, mapo tofu, spicy and sour potato shreds, and tomato stewed beef with her own hands, and occasionally some strange things in the dungeon, but she has never eaten something this simple.

Xie Siyou sighed: "Brother, you are such a good mother, no, a good father."

He was deeply moved by the father-daughter love between the two people, and then recalled the taste of smoked meat, which was like gnawing on a raw pig's butt.

Something seems wrong.
