I have a cub that escapes the boss

Smells are coming from the kitchen.Zhong Xin was not in the mood to distinguish at first, but the scent became stronger and stronger, just as she was very hungry.She couldn't help swallowing, thinking: What are you doing?

It's like making soup.

Zhong Xin remembered that he had just bought half a chicken, as well as wolfberries and other ingredients.She suspected that what was stewed in the kitchen was what she bought, but at the moment, she didn't dare to ask.

She was still confirming with Ji Hanchuan: "But you said the child—"

Ji Hanchuan said: "Oh, you haven't entered the checkpoint again, have you? Recently, many people reported that they heard a child crying and kept calling 'Mom' during the checkpoint process. Mo Wenzhao was in the test field before and met A scarecrow in denim, pulling an imp off his shoulders."

When he spoke, his tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.It also seemed that what the students encountered in his words were not "ghosts", but real children.Zhong Xin listened and felt that she was about to suffocate, and was dragged back by Ji Hanchuan's attitude.She began to regret her previous decision: just having nightmares outside, she was tortured like this.If he enters the checkpoint and really faces that brat, he won't be killed right away? !

She didn't doubt Ji Hanchuan's words.

If she listened to the first half, she would comfort herself: Maybe he lied to me?Before Guan Wenwen and I went to the school hospital and found out about my miscarriage, they were the same again.

But after hearing the denim clothes, the scarecrow——Zhong Xin had a feeling of "as expected" and felt that he was just deceiving himself in the past. There is no fluke in the "game", her successive nightmares, the voice calling her "mother" in the dream, of course, is not accidental.

Zhong Xin was a little numb.

Ji Hanchuan looked at her and said, "Any more questions?"

Zhong Xin opened her mouth in vain.

She wants to say a lot.Regret, begging for mercy, and all kinds of things.But facing the man in front of her, all she felt was trembling.

From Zhong Xin's point of view, he is walking on a tightrope, with abyss on both sides.If she refused Han Chuan, she would still be entangled by ghosts, and even her bones would be broken.But Zhong Xin was very unwilling to agree to let her enter the checkpoint and face Guiying directly.

She didn't dare to speak directly, so she could only forcefully say, "I'll think about it."

But I thought in my heart: If I really want to run away, I won’t be able to live in Zhuyuan in the future.There are many empty classrooms in the school, you can go to Yuelai Hotel to get some bedding.

Ji Hanchuan looked at her with a smile, and said, "Okay, I'll give you time." Then, he glanced at his watch, "Half an hour? One hour?"

Zhong Xin was at a loss for words and wanted to say: I didn't mean that.

But the courage is almost exhausted.She pursed her lips, clasped her fingers together, put them on her knees, and pressed her knuckles down.His shoulders were tightened, and his eyes were fixed in front of his eyes for a long time.She felt that the tea table in front of her was wiped clean, because someone took care of it carefully.Then I thought: Han Chuan?He really regards this place as a "life", not a "game".

Zhong Xin suddenly said: "Han Chuan, I have something to ask you."

Ji Hanchuan: "Huh? What?"

Zhong Xin was on the adrenaline rush, and she also felt that she was going crazy, saying: "That day, I killed Tao Meng, and then came back—"

Ji Hanchuan: "No."

Zhong Xin plucked up her courage: "I know, something pushed me!"

When Ji Hanchuan heard this, he raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Zhong Xin went all out and said, "Even if you kill me, I will..."

Ji Hanchuan interrupted her.

He smiled and said, "Miss Zhong misunderstood me."

Zhong Xin was stuck.

Ji Hanchuan sighed, looking a little sad.He leaned back and crossed his legs, not like in a bloody and terrifying escape game, but as if the earth was still peaceful before everything started. One afternoon, he was drinking tea and chatting with his friends.

Ji Hanchuan: "Maybe it's because Ms. Zhong killed Tao Meng earlier," he said lightly, "So, it's more like 'judging others by yourself', thinking that other people will also kill you. However, this misunderstanding is really big. As long as you are honest and peaceful, how could I kill you?"

Zhong Xin's eyes widened.

She suspected that what she was facing was not a human being, or to be more precise, not a "player", but another monster that could roam the campus of Peking University.He doesn't have to follow the rules, he can earn points just like the players, and use this as a disguise.At this moment, he said these words in his mouth, but his expression was very malicious, as if he was mocking her: Do you still want to escape from my hand?

But when she blinked again, the feeling just now was like her illusion.Han Chuan in front of him looked handsome and innocent, so he almost picked up a white towel from the side to make a flag.He said gently: "Don't always think of people so badly."

Zhong Xin closed her eyes when she heard this.

She is afraid.

When facing Tao Meng, she would also be afraid.But at that time, in addition to fear, there was also resentment.She was thinking viciously, when she got rid of everything, she must kill him!

But when facing Han Chuan, as in the past, she couldn't raise any hatred.Every cell in her body is reminding her, run! ! !

Run where this man can't find it! ! !

The issue is……

Could there be somewhere, where he couldn't find it?

Zhong Xin spent a long time, tears stained her eyelashes.This time, she no longer hoped that Han Chuan would take a step back because of her performance. She was just purely afraid, so she couldn't control these physiological reactions.Zhong Xin sobbed and murmured: "I was wrong, don't kill me, don't!"

In the kitchen, the hotel chef who was invited listened to the sound of the chicken being stewed in the pressure cooker, and occasionally there was a voice from outside, and he glanced at Shao You wonderingly.Shao You was wearing an apron, with a very good temper, and said, "What's wrong?"

"Uh, it's nothing." The chef scratched his head, "I just think it's not easy for you. By the way, you said earlier that the 'ghost' in our hotel is—"

"Sun Xin." Shao You said.

The chef sighed: "He. I thought before that this kid was out of his mind."

Shao You: "You can't say that. What's inside the level can't be linked to what's outside."

Chef: "You're right..." He took a look at the pressure cooker and wiped his hands with an apron, "But we also have rumors in private that maybe that kid has committed a crime. Said, his master couldn't take it any longer, and wanted to drive him away. Although there are no messy things in the 'checkpoint', but looking at it this way, this kid probably really steals things, tsk."

Shao You just smiled and said nothing.

in the living room.

Ji Hanchuan looked at Zhong Xin, and saw that Zhong Xin was hysterical at first, and then his crying gradually weakened.After thinking about it, he finally took out a clean towel, wet it with hot water, wrung it dry, folded it again, and took it out to Zhong Xin.

When he came back, Zhong Xin was still sitting on the sofa and did not leave.

She actually wanted to lift her foot a few times just now.

But listening to the sounds in the kitchen and smelling the aroma in the air, Zhong Xin had a strange feeling again.She suspected that Han Chuan was trying to test herself, so she pretended to leave.But in fact, if she really left, she might see Han Chuan standing outside the house as soon as she opened the door... This seems unlikely, she corrected it in her mind, and thought: there may be other accomplices standing outside.

She was trembling, and there was an extra towel in front of her.Zhong Xin looked up in shock and fear.I didn't know it at all, but there was a little girl sitting next to me all the time, typing on the keyboard, happily "eating" snacks, and even making faces at Ji Hanchuan, saying, "Dad, you seem to be more important to her than that kid is to her." big."

Ji Hanchuan couldn't laugh or cry.

At that moment, he said to Zhong Xin, "Wipe your face."

Zhong Xin hesitated, not daring to move, but Ji Hanchuan looked at her for a moment and counted: "One, two, three—"

Zhong Xin reached out reflexively and took the towel from the other party.Only now did she feel that she was really tired, startled and scared.A hot towel sticks to the face, bringing unspeakable peace of mind and comfort.Zhong Xin was at a loss because he felt like a dog who had been whipped a thousand times, but because of such a mere candy, he began to feel at ease.

It's just ridiculous.

But then, she saw more "sugar".Shao You came out of the kitchen and brought some bowls of soup.Behind him, there was a middle-aged man who said, "I won't drink, I'll go back first, there's still work to do over there."

Shao You put the soup on the table.There is still something to talk about later, he didn't force him to stay, but said: "Wait a minute, I'll decorate for you, thank you for your hard work."

The chef listened, "hehe" smiled, and didn't refuse again.There are comings and goings, and he is not considered cannibalistic.

After the door closed, Ji Hanchuan took a sip of the soup, and said to Shao You, "It's delicious, have you learned it? You can also make it in the future."

Shao You sat down beside him, with a bit of kitchen smell on his body.He hugged Ji Hanchuan's waist and leaned against him, as if he was resting, but also seemed to be charging.When it's fully charged, go drink the soup by yourself.

Ji Hanchuan reminded: "Miss Zhong?"

Zhong Xin woke up like a dream.

Ji Hanchuan: "Try this?"

Zhong Xin was silent and went to taste it.

The hot soup flowed into his throat, while Ji Hanchuan was still saying, "Show me your shopping list? Well, it costs a lot of points." Shao You calculated silently on the side, and turned his head to whisper to him.Ji Hanchuan said: "Sixty points will be the reward for taking you into the checkpoint."

Zhong Xin thought: You really don't leave me any room.

But after drinking the chicken soup, she felt a belated warmth in her heart.Zhong Xin felt sad in her heart, she just felt that she had forgotten how Han Chuan treated her a few months ago.But at the same time, she also felt guilty, knowing that it was because she wanted to do something to Shao You first.Han Chuan's behavior can be called "repaying grievances with virtue".

She drank the whole bowl, and then asked Ji Hanchuan: "Can you guarantee that I will come out alive?"

Ji Hanchuan said: "It depends on whether you believe 'I will let you out alive'."

Based on Ningning's observations during this period, the family of three agreed that although Zhong Xin didn't like that little ghost, for the aborted baby ghost, "mother" was still its anchor in Beijing University.One day in the future, when it accumulates enough strength, it may pass through this anchor point and truly enter Beijing University.

In the past four months, Shao You has gone to all the levels that have appeared.Unlike when he was an ordinary NPC before, now, he saw more and knew more, but he still couldn't find any trace of "Him".

This gave Shao You a new idea: perhaps the current Beijing University is a reduced version of the "game" - there is no "he" here, only the "control center" from the "game".

With the division of "levels" and "ordinary campuses", "NPC students" and "level NPCs" and "game creatures" belong to different camps.As the former Shao You, although he is different, it is difficult to become a truly capable ghost.In this case, choosing one of the latter to cultivate is the fastest and the solution they have been trying.

With Cheng Juan, the painter and others in the lead, Ji Hanchuan and Shao You believed that the possibility of success of this plan in Beijing University was also very high.But the problem is, they need to find an NPC who can contact all - at least most of the levels.

This is the hardest part.

Moving forward, the two believe that it is necessary to start with the background of the level: what happened around the experimental field?Where did the things inside and outside the auditorium come from?Is there anything in common in all of this?

But after Ning Ning saw the extra stuff in Zhong Xin's stomach outside the radio station, everything was resolved.

They find the best one.

It's still small and irrational.Shao You thought that he should wait for it to grow up before trying to contact it.Up to now, the preliminary observation has been made: it cares about Zhong Xin very, very much.
