femme fatale [unlimited]
Chapter 81
At twelve noon, a group of people gathered in the reading room.
It was meal time, and there were only five of them in the huge room.The bright sunlight shines through the clean glass, casting a faint shadow of the window on the ground.
A circle of wooden bookshelves are placed around the wall. The surface of each shelf is slightly inclined, showing a certain angle with the ground. Neat newspapers and magazines are placed on it, which is clear at a glance.
Lin Cen was not in a hurry to flip through the newspaper, but asked others, "Have you gained anything?"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and finally shook their heads.
The novel reading room where Lin Cen, Ning Mianmian, and Rongrong were just now, there are really only some novels in it, and most of the plots are quite bloody, such as stand-ins, crematoriums, vests... They are all in the real world Common elements, and from the background of the novel, although Nebula City's technology is more advanced than their world, it has not achieved a qualitative leap, and there is really no profound meaning.
Lin Cen said that under normal circumstances, if there are clues in a book, it should be a unified law that can be summarized and extracted after simply flipping through a few or a dozen books.Generally, it will not happen that important clues are randomly hidden in a certain page of a certain book, allowing players to find them from a large number of books.Because the look and feel of the game piled up by a lot of mechanical manual labor is too bad, it does not conform to the concept of dungeon design.
And the history and humanities books Luo Fu and Jiang Wan read didn't contain anything of value.As the service desk staff said, Xingyun City is a new city with little history, and its development process is no different from that of ordinary cities. It has not encountered any setbacks, nor is it particularly outstanding.In short, all aspects are mediocre, and there is nothing worth noting.
As for the customs of Xingyun City, it is very similar to the No. 7 plane they were originally in.Even if the technology here is a bit more advanced, it only greatly facilitates people's lives, improves the quality of life, and prolongs life expectancy.Human beings have made progress and breakthroughs in all aspects, but there is no act of death.
After everyone finished speaking, the atmosphere fell into a deadlock for a while, and no one spoke.
After a while, Jiang Wan was the first to break the silence, "Everything here is normal."
Love pondered: "Our thinking may have gone in the wrong direction."
"Since there is a disaster, it's not normal to be too normal." Lin Cen said lightly, and she glanced at the well-arranged newspapers on the bookshelf, "The conventional thinking doesn't work, so maybe there's something hidden Yes, we haven’t found it yet. Or, the time hasn’t come yet, we can’t find it.”
Rongrong asked, "Then shall we still read newspapers and magazines?"
Lin Cen said, "Look, find a place to eat after watching."
Fluffy eyes lit up: "Okay!"
Everyone hadn't eaten since entering the dungeon at eight o'clock in the morning, and they had been running around all the time. They were all hungry at the moment.Hunger greatly accelerated their efficiency. Within an hour, all the newspapers and magazines were roughly read.
Although the news in the newspaper was similar to what I had learned before, and there were small accidents every day, but they were neither related nor caused serious consequences.
They even checked the weather forecast. The weather has been stable recently, with no signs of abnormal weather.
The situation once again reached a stalemate. Fortunately, everyone was mentally prepared and their psychological quality was good, so they were not hit hard. Instead, they decided to leave the library and find a place to have lunch.
Originally, based on Lin Cen's habit, they had to eat lunch on time at noon.It's just that this time the start was not smooth, and no clues related to the disaster have been found, so it has been delayed until now.
On the way, Ning Mianmian took out the box of chocolates, opened the lid, and distributed a few pieces to everyone.Chocolate has a strong sense of satiety, so you can cushion your stomach first.
After Luo Fu took it, she didn't eat it, but handed her share to Jiang Wan, "here, here you are."
Jiang Wan is fond of sweets, she has already peeled off a piece of chocolate and put it in her mouth, she was slightly taken aback when she heard this.She looked down and saw several pieces of colorful chocolate lying quietly in Love's white palm, reflecting the bright colors in the sunlight.
She hesitated, "No need."
"You're welcome." Love urged with a smile, "Don't you like sweets?"
After finishing speaking, she directly took Jiang Wan's hand and put the chocolate into her palm.
The sudden soft touch made Jiang Wan's fingers lightly paused, and she didn't refuse any more, leaving one in her hand, and put the rest of the chocolates Love gave into her pocket.
Jiang Wan peeled off the candy wrapper and ate the chocolate, the rich aroma of cocoa swept over, the sweetness and texture were just right, and it seemed to be better than her own.
She narrowed her eyes and said to Love, "Thank you."
Lunch was settled on the bench next to the square. Several people were so hungry that a gust of wind swept through the clouds.
Ning Mianmian ate two pieces of bread in a row and drank another carton of milk before finally feeling full.She picks and chooses among a bag of fruit and finally chooses an orange.
At this time, it was past three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was shining warmly on his body.The leaves above the head were blown by the breeze, making a rustling sound.
Ning Mianmian tends to get sleepy when she's full, she leans on the back of the seat and narrows her eyes lazily.
At this time, the people around her patted her shoulder, indicating that she could lean over.Ning Mianmian was a little hesitant. She raised her eyes and saw that the other three teammates were chatting and laughing on another bench. No one was paying attention to this side, so she leaned over confidently and boldly.
Lin Cen put his arms around her shoulders, trying to make her lean more comfortably.She shrank an inch into Lin Cen's arms, and smelled the faint cold fragrance again.
For a moment, Ning Mianmian even felt that this was just an ordinary spring outing.On the square not far ahead, flocks of white pigeons are taking a leisurely stroll, pecking at two mouthfuls of corn dropped by tourists from time to time; elementary school students have just finished class, chasing and playing with colorful schoolbags on their backs; there are also elderly couples sitting in the shade of trees, There was a soft smile on his weather-beaten face.
Everything looks like the years have been peaceful, so what is the so-called disaster?
Ning Mianmian couldn't figure it out.
At this time, the people around said in a low voice: "Don't worry, what should come will always come, we just adapt to the situation."
Ning Mianmian raised her face to look at her, her cheek brushed against the silver hair hanging on her shoulders, itching a little.
Lin Cen also looked over, his golden eyes were full of sunlight, showing a clear luster, like crystal clear amber.
Ning Mianmian looked at her and smiled: "I'm not in a hurry."
She turned her face sideways and raised her chin in the direction of the three teammates, "Such an opportunity is actually very rare."
Lin Cen looked in the direction she indicated, and saw that Fluffy said something she shouldn't have said. Love was teaching her with a straight face, but the upturned lips betrayed her current state of mind. good mood.
Jiang Wan sat next to Luo Fu, she watched the two of them fight quietly, she didn't speak, but there was a slight smile hidden in her always cold eyes.
Lin Cen was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "I have enough points, if you want, you can never download another copy."
Ning Mianmian was slightly startled, and soon realized that it was because of what she said just now that Lin Cen had such thoughts.She thought for a while and said, "Sister, we humans have a saying that bitterness comes first, sweetness comes first. I must first become strong enough to enjoy life without any worries."
Lin Cen asked: "Isn't it good to completely break away from the dungeon?"
Ning Mianmian asked her back: "Then why does my sister already have enough points, and still keep doing dungeons like this?"
Lin Cen's eyes darkened, and he said, "I have something to do."
Ning Mianmian approached her with a smile, and held her hand, "Then I will accompany you."
After hearing this, Lin Cen's expression faltered for a moment, and then he quickly regained his composure.
She sighed and said in a low voice, "I won't let you get involved."
"Then how can I do that?" Ning Mianmian opened her eyes wide, and she said seriously, "We have to share weal and woe, my sister is probably holding me back because I have become a lot stronger, just wait for me, I..."
Halfway through her words, a round black shadow suddenly approached her.Lin Cen's eyes froze, and he quickly reached out to stop him.
Ning Mianmian was startled, and saw Lin Cen's slender fingers clasped a small colorful leather ball, not far away, a little fat man was running towards this side on two short legs, wheezing.
The little fat man looked only four or five years old, with a chubby little face.He stood in front of Lin Cen, blinked his watery eyes, and said pitifully, "Sister, can you give me back my ball?"
Lin Cen handed him the ball, and the little fat man narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Thank you sister!"
At this time, a slender figure walked quickly behind the little fat man.She wore a pretty little dress and her hair was braided in a herringbone.
Ning Mianmian's eyes paused, isn't this the Li Xinjie they met just now?With such a dress, she almost didn't recognize it, and it really depends on the clothes and the saddle.
But after thinking about it, she felt strange, how could Li Xinjie, who looked like she was in dire straits just now, dressed up so quickly and appeared in the square so leisurely.
Moreover, her demeanor was very relaxed, and her whole temperament changed, she didn't look like a person who had been entangled for a long time.
Over there, Luo Fu and the others also noticed Li Xinjie, got up and walked over, probably wanting to return her campus card.
Ning Mianmian nodded at Li Xinjie, but Li Xinjie didn't greet them, she just lowered her head and asked the little fat man.
"Li Xinzhe, your ball almost hit your sister, have you apologized to her?"
The little fat man was stunned, and then he came to his senses, and said in a childish voice, "Sister, I'm sorry."
Only then did Li Xinjie raise her head in satisfaction, and smiled apologetically at Lin Cen, "I'm sorry, my brother is playful, he didn't mean it."
Ning Mianmian's eyes paused slightly, she looked at the smile on Li Xinjie's face, and suddenly felt an inexplicable strangeness.
Why, Li Xinjie acted as if she had never seen them before?
They just met a few hours ago, no matter how bad her memory is, she wouldn't forget it so quickly, right?
Seeing Li Xinjie's behavior like this, Rongrong said inexplicably: "What's wrong with you? You..."
"It's okay." Lin Cen interrupted Rongrong, she looked into Li Xinjie's eyes and said, "Children, there are always times when you are careless."
Li Xinjie's expression was tense when she heard Rongrong's words, probably thinking that the other party wanted to find fault.After listening to Lin Cen, he became relaxed again.
She asked: "I'm really sorry, as long as you are fine, then we will leave first."
"Wait a minute." Before Li Xinjie turned around, Love stopped her.
She smiled at Li Xinjie, and said casually: "I think you look familiar, did we meet somewhere a while ago?"
"Did you recognize the wrong person?" Li Xinjie also looked at her and smiled, "Sorry, I have no impression."
It was meal time, and there were only five of them in the huge room.The bright sunlight shines through the clean glass, casting a faint shadow of the window on the ground.
A circle of wooden bookshelves are placed around the wall. The surface of each shelf is slightly inclined, showing a certain angle with the ground. Neat newspapers and magazines are placed on it, which is clear at a glance.
