"Who let you in?"
Such a Ji Meng was unfamiliar, at least to Ling Xiaolu, from the first day the two met, no matter whether Ji Meng was furious or mocking, he had never treated him with such a cold attitude.
Although Ling Xiaolu knew very well, this kind of Ji Meng was his usual attitude towards others.
However, he didn't know that Ji Meng began to regret as soon as he finished speaking. When he saw someone breaking into the house, the words blurted out subconsciously.
But after Ling Xiaolu turned around and showed a bewildered expression, he realized that he might have said too much.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to… "
"Sorry, I shouldn't have come in without authorization..."
The two people spoke at the same time and stopped abruptly at the same time, as if there was a volume switch in the air.
The solidified atmosphere instantly eased a lot.
There was some kind of power that prompted Ji Meng to walk into this room that he had not dared to face for the past few days.
Everything was as before, the room was full of that person's breath, but no one could find any clues that it existed.
Most of the photos on the wall are incomplete, like a novice photographer with a very poor level, who can't always grasp the center of the composition when taking pictures.
"I was impulsive just now," Ji Meng apologized to Ling Xiaolu again, "This is my friend's room, but he is... not here anymore."
Ji Meng's eyes swept over the exhibits one by one.
"He has a habit of collecting things, and everything here is his collection, although most of it has no practical value."
What Ji Meng wanted to explain was that he didn't want to let others in because the things here were very valuable.
Ke Ling Xiaolu wants to complain, why is it useless? Everything in here is a memory he has carefully accumulated, isn't it
"Really?" he said deliberately, "I think this statue is quite cute."
Ji Meng didn't know if that statue was cute. He only remembered that it was a sad story, and the word "cute" didn't go hand in hand.
"This is the reward for my first mission with him. I still remember that after he finished the mission, he angrily sent ninety-nine blades to the planner."
The corner of Ji Meng's mouth raised an imperceptible smile.
How about a sad story? Because of the existence of someone, sad stories also have endings that make people smile involuntarily.
Ling Xiaolu cautiously and tentatively asked, "Is that friend very important to you?"
On the surface, this seems to be a question of concern for Ji Meng, but if you substitute his own identity, you will find that this is actually a shameless question.
Ji Meng replied after a long while, "Yes, he is very special to me."
"Then what kind of person is he?" Ling Xiaolu asked while the iron was hot, ready to be praised.
Ji Meng hesitated: "He is mischievous and causes trouble. No matter where he goes, he can make a fuss and make trouble."
Ling Xiaolu: …
Which of these is a compliment? Did Ji Meng misunderstand his character
Why did it sound to him that the Ling Xiaolu described by Ji Meng was a total stranger? Could the deletion of the account even tamper with other people's memories
He didn't know how many times he secretly rolled his eyes behind Ji Meng, but he heard the other side say—
"He was the first friend I met in this game and the most important person to me."
Ling Xiaolu rolled his eyes and didn't take it back, and was moved by the sadness that could not be hidden in Ji Meng's tone. He was such a person who had no position.
"It's a pity..." Ji Meng raised his head slightly, "He is so important to me, but I can't even remember what he looked like."
Ling Xiaolu: …
He looked at Ji Meng's lonely back, and wanted to give him a hug from behind like that day.
"Don't be too sad, maybe this friend of yours is in a place you don't know, maybe he's thinking of you too."
Ji Meng turned around and looked at Ling Xiaolu seriously, and when he put on his game equipment, he looked more like the person who disappeared. He even wondered if he was thinking too much, and in a trance he saw these two figures overlapped together.
It was obviously a routine comforting word, but it became easy to accept when he said it, as if Lubi himself was sending a message to him through Ling Xiaolu's mouth.
Seeing Ling Xiaolu slowly raising his index finger to his mouth, Ji Meng made a "squeak" in his heart, could it be—
"Shh-"
Ling Xiaolu didn't disappear, just made a silent voice: "Did you hear anything?"
"What movement?"
The two of them were quiet, and there was an intermittent "pat-ta-ta-ta" sound in the room, like drops of water hitting the paper.
"Your room is leaking."
Ji Meng had never heard of it: "How is that possible."
Ling Xiaolu looked around and finally found the source of the sound of water in the corner.
But seeing Lei Lulu curled up pitifully in the corner, holding its incomplete photo in both hands, the big tears fell on the surface of the photo.
Lei Lulu actually cry? That gluttonous and mischievous Lei Lulu actually shed tears for the friendship between him and Xiao Lubi
Ling Xiaolu couldn't hide the look of surprise on his face. If he hadn't seen the two little guys fighting in the yard, he would almost have believed that these two were trusted confidants and friends!
Ji Meng hurried over and picked up Lei Lulu, who was sad and crying, from the corner.
"It must have missed his friend," Ji Meng explained, "and its best friend has also left."
Ling Xiaolu pursed his lips with empathy: "I can understand."
The deer is so cute than that, and it will be reluctant to be a person (pet).
"Don't look at it as just a virtual pet. The staff who made him said that its IQ is about the same as that of a six-year-old child. The child must feel sad when he loses his playmate, right?"
Ji Meng gently stroked its back: "Don't cry, Xiaolubi will definitely come back." He lied and coaxed it like a child.
He didn't mention the name, but when he mentioned it, Lei Lulu burst into tears, like a child's intuition told him that it wasn't the truth after a parent told a lie.
Its sadness stems not only from the incident itself, but also from the deception of the parents. More importantly, when he realized it was a lie, it meant that it would never happen again.
The electric current of fluorescent blue surrounded Lei Lulu with a crackling sound, Ji Meng did not turn off the pain perception, his arms were numb from the electricity, and Lei Lulu took the opportunity to break free and slide down.
"Watch out!"
Ji Meng had to remind, but it was too late, Ling Xiaolu became the second victim, Lei Lulu's lightning swept over his head, and he was wearing a novice outfit and only a trace of blood was left in danger. He almost gave his first life here.
"What happened to him?" Ling Xiaolu asked nervously.
"I don't know, he seems to be out of control, you turn off the pain perception first!"
Ji Meng didn't have time to think, Ling Xiaolu, as a novice, probably didn't know where the pain perception function was. He tried to control or retract Lei Lulu, but it didn't work at all.
"Lei Lulu!" He could only shout, "Stop making trouble!"
Lei Lulu glanced back at him angrily, not only was he not obedient, but instead released a larger lightning bolt, and the electric lights flickered alternately in the room, making people mistakenly think that this was some kind of terrifying scientific experiment scene.
"Do you have anything to eat?"
Ling Xiaolu reminded Ji Meng with a word, and he took out a pink ball from his backpack.
"Come on, darling, don't make a fuss for you to eat."
Lei Lulu, who usually eats pet meatballs the most, unexpectedly, ignored the things in Ji Meng's hands, but the current around him was thicker.
"… not good."
"What's wrong?"
Ji Meng threw Ling Xiaolu into the corner and rescued him from the brink of death. The ball lightning released by Lei Lulu exploded one by one in the room, causing Ling Xiaolu's scalp to go numb.
"It seems to be out of control, let's get out of here first."
Ji Meng pulled Ling Xiaolu and wanted to rush out, but at the same time, only hearing a loud "bang", Lei Lulu's suddenly enlarged body broke through the ceiling, smashing a large hole in the roof.
Leilulu, which released the complete body, was wantonly destroyed, the display racks were knocked down and crushed, various collections fell to the ground in a mess, and the current was constantly refracted and rebounded by using them as the medium, and every corner of the room was filled with electric light. .
"Wait a minute!" Ling Xiaolu swept away something and broke free from Ji Meng's hand.
"Where are you going?!" Ji Meng grabbed in a panic, but he didn't catch anyone, and watched Ling Xiaolu desperately pounce on Lei Lulu's feet. Ji Meng didn't even want to release his skills. His lightning ball collided with Lei Lulu. The two huge light balls faced each other. The surrounding air was distorted due to the squeezing, forming a powerful aura. The dust tumbled in the air.
Ji Meng pulled Ling Xiaolu out of Lei Lulu's feet at a critical moment. The two of them jumped into the yard, and the huge building collapsed behind them.
"Are you crazy!" Ji Meng grabbed Ling Xiaolu's shoulder and shouted loudly, "What are you doing suddenly rushing over?"
Ling Xiaolu stretched out his hand with lingering fears, revealing the statue of the guard he saved with his life.
"Didn't you say that this is a souvenir of your first mission and it is very important to you?"
Ji Meng was suddenly at a loss for words.
"Isn't this a game? It won't really die, but I'm not sure if it will be trampled."
Ji Meng took it silently with a complicated mood: "Thank you."
Ling Xiaolu pointed to the back, indicating that the matter was not over yet.
"What about that?"
The complete Lei Lulu destroyed Ji Meng's house. It seemed that it was not enough to vent its inner dissatisfaction. It jumped out of the ruins, looked left and right, and finally ran away in one direction.
"No, you can't let it go to a crowded place and destroy it!"
Ji Meng summoned the giant dragon without hesitation, and skilfully embraced Ling Xiaolu's waist and jumped onto the dragon's back, as if this action had been practiced hundreds of times.
The giant dragon flapped its wings and took off in place.
"We have to get it back!"
Lei Lulu's legs are short or short, but he can run so fast that he disappears in the blink of an eye, and he can't even keep up with the pet radar.
Ji Meng had to control the flying dragon, chasing in the direction it disappeared, while keeping an eye on the ground.
Ling Xiaolu was also looking around nervously, and suddenly raised his head, startled.
"Your name has turned black!"
Needless to say, Ji Meng also found out, and from just now on his virtual panel, the killing information began to pop up frantically. It seems that Lei Lulu has already started to kill and kill, and all its murderous aura value has accumulated on Ji Meng, and it will break through the black name in a short time.
"It's okay, this is easy to solve." Ji Meng had no time to use the potion, and the top priority was to stop Lei Lulu, who was running out of control.
But there must be a reason for killing so many people in a short period of time.
Ling Xiaolu's eyes lit up: "Where is the most densely populated place nearby?"
Ji Meng thought for a while, and his face changed.
"There is a performance in Jingzhe City tonight, and many people will come to see it."
This is a novel activity planned by Xinshan, inviting famous virtual idol groups to link with the game to hold an exclusive concert in Jingzhe City.
Not only the original players in the game, but the fans of the girl group will also use the experience peripherals to support their idols online. These are brand new trumpets, no wonder Lei Lulu has harvested so much murderous aura in a short period of time.
Ji Meng manipulated the giant dragon and flew to Jingzhe City at the speed of light. Before he arrived, he saw lightning and thunder over Jingzhe City from a distance. Many players who were watching the concert in costumes rushed to flee outside the city.
"Lei Lulu!" Ji Meng found the culprit, the performance stage had been destroyed beyond recognition, "Come back to me!"
He used the command of forced pet collection, Lei Lulu struggled desperately to resist, and blasted the thunder one after another.
This concert was originally broadcast live on the full server, and those who didn't show up were full of doubts at the moment, and they asked crazy questions in the barrage.
—Isn’t this my husband’s Lei Lulu? Why do you suddenly run out of the city in the middle of the concert
-Prince Ji is in the sky! Regardless of the yellow fat ball, my goddesses are shocked!
- Could it be that Lei Lulu is a black fan of the girl group? This is too fantastic!
For the first time, Ji Meng experienced the embarrassment that even the baby couldn't control. He could only touch his fingers together, making a gesture similar to a triangle, and the palms of his hands began to glow.
"What are you doing?" Ling Xiaolu asked.
"It's out of control, I just have to reseal it."
seal? Isn't that turning pets into things like rocks, although it can be unblocked, but...
"Does the seal have any effect on the baby?"
"Yes..." Ji Meng is also struggling in his heart. The pet that has been sealed and re-unsealed, the loss of growth value is negligible, but the loyalty will be completely cleared, just like a newly captured wild pet, it is necessary to cultivate feelings from scratch .
"But there is no other way now that this can be done."
"Wait a minute!" Ling Xiaolu stopped him, "Since it will be sad when its friends leave, it means that it has the same emotions as humans. You also said that it has the same IQ as a six-year-old child. Then how do you know, Are these emotions still there after being sealed?"
"If the emotions are still there, but only the five senses are deprived, you can't see, hear, and move, and you are trapped in a stone, what does it feel like?"
Ji Meng is actually more contradictory. For him, pets are by no means cold data, but the "accompaniment" he has longed for and painted on paper since he was a child. His affection for pets is also far beyond everyone in the game.
"Let me find a way!" Ling Xiaolu shouted behind him.
"What can you do?" Ji Meng didn't think he could do it, but subconsciously expected him to do it.
"You send me down, I want to say a few words to it!"
In the ghost place below, I went to the newly created trumpet like Ling Xiaolu, and I was at a loss. I came to a concert by myself, how did it become a cannon fodder for the calamity of heaven and man, and what was that huge yellow creature
Ji Meng couldn't bear it anymore.
"Trust me!" Ling Xiaolu urged, he was not confident, he just rested assured that he would not really "die" under Lei Lulu's lightning.
The flying dragon passed over Lei Lulu's head, and Ling Xiaolu landed on the roof closest to Lei Lulu with a light movement.
Many people noticed him in the live broadcast.
-who's that person
- It looks like a newcomer, but did he just jump off Prince Ji's mount
-I do not believe! My husband's dragon's back is only allowed to sit on that one person!
- Not long after the Crown Princess was "deleted", did Prince Ji have a new love
Of course, Ling Xiaolu didn't know that he had only built his account for an hour, and then he became the focus of the whole server. The thunder and lightning were too loud. He used all his strength to send the sound to Lei Lulu's ears.
"Lei Lulu! Look at me!"
When Lei Lulu heard this voice, her frantic movements paused for a moment, her expression confused.
"Lei Lulu, listen to me!" Ling Xiaolu was forced to roar in his loudest voice, "I know that the departure of my good friend makes you sad!
"But if your friend leaves you, it doesn't mean that it also leaves this world! Maybe it's just in a place you don't know, watching you silently!"
The sound of the thunder was a little smaller, and Ling Xiaolu was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Even if you can't remember what it looks like, you still remember its name, the memories between you and it, the mood when you got along with it... No one can take it away, and no one can delete it. !
"Your friends must also hope that you can keep the good parts of your memories. If it is changing you, go on better with these changes, instead of closing yourself or even implicated others!"
Lei Lulu bowed his head in a guilty conscience, looking at the countless ghosts and tombstones under his feet, showing an embarrassed expression, like a troublemaker who was reprimanded by his parents and knew he had done something wrong.
Ji Meng was also in a trance on the dragon's back for a while. Ling Xiaolu's words seemed to be addressed to Lei Lulu and also to himself.
Ling Xiaolu stretched out a hand to Lei Lulu: "And I believe that your friend will definitely come back."
Lei Lulu was silent for a long time, and the thunder and lightning in the sky finally disappeared. Its body became smaller and smaller in front of everyone's eyes, so small that it could throw tears into Ling Xiaolu's arms.
Ling Xiaolu caught it with one hand, put it next to its ear, and said softly in a voice that no one could hear: "Look, am I coming back right now?"
