[Sword] Prejudice

"The Queen of England and the Dudley and Stephens incident in the [-]th century?" Kirito obviously couldn't quickly realize which incident Meizi was referring to, so he asked back.

"Don't you know? Well, let me tell you this story in simpler terms. A yacht sank because of waves, and then only four people on board escaped in lifeboats. The captain, crew, sailors and a 17-year-old Orphan waiters, they only had two jars and no fresh water, so soon they lost their food, and then the 17-year-old waiter drank sea water without listening to the advice of those people, fell ill, and survived, and they had been ten days old at this time Left and right haven’t eaten anything yet, and at this time the captain came up with an idea to draw lots to decide who will die.” Meizi stopped when she said this, and she remembered how heavy she was when she first heard this story.

I also thought of my own thoughts of atonement from the past to the present.

Meizi caught a glimpse of Kirito's strange expression, she tried to curl the corners of her mouth, but unfortunately failed, she continued on, she said: "But the sailor refused, he seemed to be quite resistant to this method, maybe he was worried that he would lose. Who knows, anyway, after a period of time under such circumstances, they were so hungry and dizzy that they didn't see other passing ships at all. Finally, they turned their attention to the sick waiter. Finally, they Eat him, or in the words of one of them "they enjoyed the gift of the 17-year-old boy", anyway, in the end all three were rescued."

"In a narrow sense, it means exchanging one life for three lives, right? I think it's even more frightening that this is a real thing." Kirito's doll's face was very serious.

"Actually speaking, this boy is an orphan, and the three of them have their own families and children." Mei Zi explained matter-of-fact.

Kirito suddenly laughed, and he said: "Never test human nature, because human nature really cannot stand the test."

"Never test human nature, because human nature really can't stand the test...?" Meizi repeated, then looked at Kirito appreciatively, and said, "This is really good, but also very sad."

"Actually, this is a sentence that the clown said in "The Dark Knight". I don't know why this sentence suddenly lingered in my mind, so I just... said it." Kirito was a little embarrassed to tell the truth after being praised by Meizi.

"Ah, the flowers are blooming," Meizi immediately reached out to touch the flowers, and received them in the clip in a flash. After completing this important event, Meizi heaved a sigh of relief, "Well, "The Dark Knight"?" ?”

"Yes."

"I feel like it should be a good movie. If I have a chance, I will watch it." Meizi was relieved because she got the flower that she had been waiting for for a long time. She smiled at Kirito, making her look calm Comparable to her age.

"Although I really want to say something more about this film, no matter how I think about it, I can only think of the two sentences that the clown said, and I can't even think of whether this film is good or not. However, you can call it when you watch it. Fuck me?" Kirito was very nervous when he uttered the last sentence, because this sentence meant that the two of them would also meet in real life, and he was not sure whether Meizi would like it.

Meizi didn't know what Kirito was thinking at all, she just nodded and said: "Okay, you can watch it with me when the time comes."

Although it was fun here, when Meizi returned to the hotel, she found that Lina did not leave a light for her. I fell asleep after thinking about it.

When she woke up the next morning, she saw Lina sitting there eating breakfast, alone. If she hadn't noticed that Lina was angry at this time, Meizi was not slow to respond but slow.

She quickly thought about what she had done in the past two days, but in the end she had no idea at all, so Meizi just said calmly to Lina, "Morning."

"Morning, Plum Sauce." Although he still said that, his tone was obviously much colder than usual.

"Did I do something wrong?" Meizi asked straightforwardly, because she felt that Lina was not that angry and could communicate normally, so she should be able to speak out.

"No~" Lina said to Meizi with a smile on her face.

lie.

Meizi could see Lina's mood, but there was nothing she could do about it, so she just replied, "Oh."

When Lina went out, Meizi also followed, because she wanted to get more hints about why Lina was angry, although Meizi herself didn't have much hope for this.

Lina didn't look angry when Meizi followed her, and she even looked amiable. She said to Meizi, "Speaking of which, I know a task. Do you want to do it together?"

Meizi nodded silently, a little worried that she would make too many mistakes, so she didn't speak at all.

"Kirito-kun!"

Meizi only heard Lina suddenly yelling in a very gentle voice, and then looked at Kirito, who was a little bit numb from being called so, not far away, and said to Lina under the hostile eyes of a group of male players: "Li Na, you came out too."

"Yes~ What's the matter with you now, do you want to go on a mission with us?" Lena looked at Kirito with great interest, as if she trusted and relied on him wholeheartedly. Make people feel as if you are her master, her god, her all.

Kirito looked at Meizi, who was standing on the side as a backdrop, and found that she didn't intend to reject her. Thinking of the closer relationship between the two yesterday, he decided to strike while the iron was hot to increase his favorability, and said, "Okay."

Lina, who was a little lost because of Kirito's brief silence, said happily when Kirito agreed, "Let's go, I will lead the way, because that task is full of troubles and has a time limit. I will do it if you are here." Don't worry, and Plumm is here, so I feel so at ease."

"Is that so..." Kirito laughed dryly, feeling a little pressured by being so highly regarded.

"Speaking of which, what's the name of this mission? Is there anything I need to pay attention to? What's the time limit? Can I repeat the challenge?" Meizi asked a question, thinking that the information revealed by Lina just now needs to pay attention to this mission. .

After Kirito heard Meizi's question, he also looked at Lina, showing a very serious expression. After all, the rarer the task, the richer the reward, but accompanying it, the task will be very troublesome, and some even can Use "change, state" to describe.

"The time limit is twelve hours, and the challenge cannot be repeated, but if you form a team, each player can take it once, and the name of the task is—" Speaking of this, Lina said as if deliberately hiding suspense, "Straw Rich Man .”

"It's really Japanese style..." Meizi made such a comment after hearing the name.

Kirito was very abnormal and complained: "If you don't have one, you won't get the knife in your waist, right?"

plum:"……"

"Hahahaha, Plum-chan, what Kirito said is really a hit." Lina put her hands on Meizi's shoulders, and bent over laughing, as if she was too much provoked by this joke.

Hey, you're exaggerating...Meizi rolled her eyes and ignored Lina who was laughing so hard that she couldn't help herself.

After laughing enough, Lina pointed to an old man in front and said, "Here, it's that old man. We can take over the task from him."

"Then who will start first?" Kirito said as the only male player after forming the team.

Meizi spoke very casually, she stretched her waist, and then said it so indifferently, without feeling nervous at all, obviously not too serious about this task, "Anyone can do it, right? It doesn't matter."

Lina also shook her head, showing a casual attitude.

"If that's the case, then I'll go first." Kirito said so, and walked towards the grandfather of the task issuer first.

"Ahem, are you appointed by God, ah, I know, then please accept this, I believe that after this, you will be like me, cough." Handed out a straw.

A window jumped out of Kirito's eyes, and it read [Announcement: Do you accept the straw rich man's mission? 】The corner of Kirito's mouth twitched, he didn't expect the task name to be so authentic, and then he clicked [Yes].

Afterwards, Kirito found that there was an extra straw in his package. After materializing it, he held it in his hand, looked at it for a while, and confirmed that it was an ordinary straw.

"You said that if you lost it, would a god jump out to help you find the golden straw, the silver straw and this ordinary straw?" Lina suddenly said whimsically and childishly.

Meizi reached out and touched Lina's head, and said as pleasantly as possible: "What you're talking about is Aesop's fables, right? This seems to be far from Japanese fairy tales, although they are all read by children."

"I hate it, Plum-chan, you really don't have a girlish heart at all. If you are so serious, no one will like it. And don't treat me like a child and keep touching my head!" Lina held her hands Hugging her own head, complaining to Meizi so angrily, she looks very cute.

"Yes." Meizi withdrew her hand, and agreed with such a smile, she felt that Lina seemed to be no longer angry, which made her let go of her suspended heart, and became relaxed again.

Kirito stared at the straw carefully trying to find the elements leading to the next joint of this task.
