Chapter 278 Horror Game: Human Players Take a Shortcut to Clear the Level! (52)

The black car was parked in the underground parking lot. At eight o'clock in the evening, it was easy to find a spot in the garage.

As we took the elevator directly to the shopping area, You Mu's words echoed beside us.

“Maybe I’ll meet some people and learn some things later.”

Qin Jue had heard such meaningful words last time.

About the Qiao family and about himself.

He roughly pieced together a guess from the other party's semantics and Qiao Yueyang's fragmented verbal information.

but……

"But don't worry too much. The decision is always in your hands."

The hand hanging by his side was taken up, and the slightly cool fingertips stirred his palm and moved his mind, calming Qin Jue's inexplicably chaotic emotions.

Shaking his hand back with force, Qin Jue turned sideways and saw that his shadow was always in the other person's eyes that seemed to know everything. He no longer bothered about these trivial matters.

"Well, I see."

On weekdays, there are not many customers in the evening, with scattered people either stopping or walking through certain areas where goods are displayed.

Qin Jue pushed the shopping cart consciously, and the two of them first went to the daily necessities area closest to them, picking out daily necessities such as toothbrushes and bath towels.

Then came the vegetable and meat section, where I bought pork ribs and some matching greens for cooking, weighed them, packed them, and put them in the shopping cart.

Qin Jue didn’t think these simple and trivial things were special in the past. Studying and part-time jobs occupied a large part of his life.

Providing oneself is the top priority. Most of the time, people come here in a hurry, grab what they need, and leave quickly after getting everything.

Pushing the shopping cart and looking at the people in front of him strolling leisurely and occasionally stopping in front of the stalls to choose fruits and vegetables, Qin Jue suddenly realized that he had not strolled around at such a slow pace for a long time.

Perhaps it was because I suddenly found the missing part in my life, and the pace of my life slowed down along with the other person's leisurely movements.

He began to have the leisure to observe the things around him and feel the relaxed and happy mood of the moment.

The misfortunes and disasters that once lingered around me seem to have passed.

Perhaps, he has also become a lucky person.

When he raised his eyes to meet the glaring incandescent light on the ceiling, his eyelashes were dazzled by the dazzling overhead light, and Qin Jue always felt a sense of being in a dream.

From the trance-like surprise in the afternoon, to the anxious waiting in the carriage, to now walking side by side in the supermarket, he had experienced a lot this day.

Perhaps it was because he had traveled through the game dungeons too many times, and when there was no one around, Qin Jue would uncontrollably question the boundary between reality and illusion.

There was even an illusion that even You Mu's appearance in reality was like an overly beautiful fantasy caused by his excessive desire.

"Would you like to buy some eggplants? Purple or green? Which one should I use to make minced meat eggplant?" You Mu stopped in front of two adjacent vegetable racks, staring at the vegetables of different appearances and feeling conflicted.

In the previous world, he didn't have many opportunities to buy vegetables himself. He had eaten the eggplant feast with various dishes prepared by Aunt Xue, but he had no idea that there were a whole row of so many varieties of eggplants.

Looking at the different breeds, some long, some round, some short and some fat, You Mu felt dizzy.

Qin Jue gathered his thoughts and looked at You Mu standing in front of a row of neatly arranged vegetables, hesitating and frowning as if he was facing some serious problem. Suddenly, he felt that the other party became lively and vivid at this moment.

The barriers based on different identities and different spaces seemed to disappear completely in an instant. Those things that could not be understood through a layer of fog and those erratic perceptions of the other party were weakened too much.

It was as if he had crossed the dimensional wall, which made Qin Jue have a real feeling that the other party had appeared beside him.

He took a few steps forward, reached out and grasped You Mu's raised wrist, leading him to land on one of the columns of fresh vegetables.

"This will do."

The delicate sensation brought by the touch of skin and knuckles is transmitted to the brain more accurately and directly than any evidence.

The touch of his fingertips, the gaze, the coordination of senses and vision, all showed that the person in front of him was not just his imagination.

Qin Jue watched You Mu pick the eggplants, put them in the bag and ask the staff to weigh them, but he was unwilling to let go of his folded hands and insisted on holding them. The two of them went together to weigh the vegetables worth a few dollars.

A young girl was working in front of the weighing machine. When she faced the two tall people, her drowsy spirit instantly became energetic. When her eyes fell on the interlocked hands, they sparkled.

She secretly glanced at the two people waiting to be labeled, and felt that they looked strangely familiar. Both of them looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen them before.

After the two walked away, she quickly opened the group chat on her phone and shared the super handsome guy she met today with her roommates.

"Girl, please help weigh it."

The conversation with the people in the group must have been too intense. She was too focused on discussing the relationship and looks of the two handsome guys, and she didn't even notice that a customer appeared in front of her.

Reminded by the white-haired old lady, she quickly raised her head, thankful that her slacking off was not discovered by the supermarket manager, otherwise, with just a few hundred dollars deducted from her part-time salary, it would be enough to make her feel distressed.

"Sure, give it to me, I'll help you!"

In front of me were two elderly men in their fifties who had come together. They were well dressed and it was obvious that they came from a well-off family. Although they were old, they were in good health and could move freely. They also had a gentle and refined temperament.

However, the two old men did not look very good, as if they had encountered something bad, and there was always sadness and bitterness in their eyes.

The staff didn’t know what happened to them, but everyone has their own sufferings in life and no one can comfort each other.

The girl sighed secretly, thinking that she had seen all kinds of people in the world in advance by working in a supermarket. She handed over the labeled bag politely and said in a formulaic way: "Please take your items and have fun shopping."

"Thank you, little girl. Where is the seasoning section?" The old lady, wearing gold-rimmed reading glasses, took the bag and put it in the shopping cart, letting her husband push the cart, and asked about the area she was not clear about.

"Turn left over there, and that's it when you see a red sign."

"Okay, thank you." The two old people walked hand in hand and headed in the direction the girl pointed.

There were not many people in this area and the road was very empty. The old man slowed down his pace and after a while, he sighed dejectedly into the air.

"Old Joe, am I wrong?"

The old lady spoke in a low voice, and the moment she lowered her head, tears flashed in her eyes again.
