The downhill road was very steep. Su Anyun was a very good rider. Tang Ning hooked his arms around Su Anyun's waist, and his face was squeezed into a bun. As the car bumped, Tang Ning's hands holding the doll were shaking.
He looked at the mini version of Su Anyun doll in his hand with trembling eyes.
The doll's eyes did not move as the car was bumping along. Instead, it stared at Tang Ning as if attracted by a magnet. The corners of its lips were smiling as if it was mocking something. Tang Ning felt uneasy when he saw it, so he simply put the porcelain doll in his pocket and covered the pocket with his hand to prevent the doll from coming out.
The branches overhead gradually became fewer, and the morning light shone on the road. The grayness that had been hovering in Tang Ning's field of vision was lifted like a veil, and Tang Ning was carried into the busy streets.
There are small stalls on the roadside, vendors are frying food with spatulas, the aroma of steaming food is everywhere, office workers are waiting in line at the bus stop, and children who want to go to school are being scolded by their parents and are trying not to cry.
Tang Ning leaned on Su Anyun's back, quietly looking at this street full of life. The road had become flat at this moment, so he put his arm around Su Anyun's waist again. Tang Ning took a deep breath of the various scents flowing in the air. He took out his cell phone from his pocket and saw that the signal on the cell phone was full.
Many unread messages popped up.
Bai Yingxue: "People said you went out. I got hurt here. I stayed in the orphanage today and acted with you."
Lin Yun: "How are you? Is the exhibition going well?"
Lin Yun: "We didn't succeed here. Zhou Kang's family was more difficult, so they all withdrew."
Tang Ning had a lot of things in mind for Bai Yingxue, especially the guy in the confinement room. However, after he sent the message, Bai Yingxue did not reply. Thinking of Bai Yingxue saying that she was injured, Tang Ning guessed that Bai Yingxue might not have the time to care about other things right now.
Tangning and Lin Yun chatted briefly and decided to meet at a cafe.
"Xiao Ning, do you have time to go to the vegetable market with me to buy vegetables?" Su Anyun said softly.
Tangning put down her phone and said a little embarrassedly, "A friend just sent me a message. I'm planning on going to meet up with him right now."
"Where are we gathering? I'll take you there." Su Anyun's tone remained gentle.
Tang Ning told Su Anyun the location of the cafe, and Su Anyun quickly rode his bike over there. When they arrived in front of the cafe, Su Anyun called Tang Ning and immediately planned to leave.
Tangning looked at Su Anyun with some doubt.
Su Anyun took out a few red bills from his pocket and handed them to Tangning, "Give me some pocket money. Use it to treat your friends to a meal."
Tangning quickly said, "Yes, it's all AA."
"Then buy yourself some more delicious food." Su Anyun put the money into Tangning's pocket. He moved so quickly that Tangning could not stop him. When he tried to take the money out of his pocket, he touched the doll instead. Tangning's attention immediately shifted to the doll, "Brother, do you always carry this doll with you?"
"By your side, it can accompany you." Su Anyun said something familiar.
Tangning was stunned for a moment, but Su Anyun didn't say anything else. He reached out and touched Tangning's head. The summer sun shone on him. Everyone behind him was busy with their own affairs. Su Anyun's voice was like a calm and gentle breeze, "Have fun. Brother will always be with you."
After saying this, Su Anyun rode his bike into the crowd. His white shirt was blown up by the wind, and his back was clean and clear, a silhouette in midsummer.
Tang Ning reached out and rubbed Su Anyun's hair, then looked down and saw a half-baby sticking out of his pocket.
Strange, this doll doesn’t seem that scary anymore
After stuffing the doll back into his pocket, Tang Ning turned around and walked back to the cafe. Bai Wuliang was sitting at a familiar table. All six of them looked to be in good condition, with no one missing a limb, but their expressions were too good. Zhou Kang and Jiang Mianmian were both listless, with one slumped in a chair like Ge You, and the other sleeping on the table.
Seeing Tang Ning coming, Lin Yun was cheered up.
"Why are you here? Where's Bai Yingxue?" After asking this, Tang Ning realized that Bai Yingxue was in a very bad state. She only notified him and did not contact other players.
"I'm injured and now in an orphanage. I can act with you." Tang Ning sat down.
"What's the situation over there? Is it suitable to be a guest?" Lin Yun asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.
"There are a lot of problems with the children in the orphanage. Although they look normal, they are actually like little demons. As for adults, they look normal before their anger points are triggered. After being provoked, they will turn into monsters. However, these monsters seem to protect the players."
"The reception room is safe, but it's located very deep in the courtyard. You might be attacked by various NPCs along the way from the main entrance to the reception room." Tang Ning briefly explained the intelligence he knew. As he spoke, he noticed strange changes in the expressions of the others. Even Jiang Mianmian, who had been drowsy, opened her eyes wide.
Tang Ning subconsciously stopped talking, realizing that he had said something wrong.
"How long have you been in the orphanage?" Jiang Mianmian asked.
Tangning quickly calculated the time, "About 20 minutes?"
"In just twenty minutes, you actually collected such complete intelligence?" Zeng Yishuang said in disbelief.
It is indeed very complete, with information about monsters, NPCs that may help players, and most importantly, safe house information.
Tangning blinked blankly and asked cautiously, "Is it, is it complete?"
He knew what the guy in the detention room was, but he didn't understand why those kids called him mom, and he didn't understand why Xiaoyu said that the monster in the detention room liked him.
Bai Wuliang sighed, "Mr. Tang, if you speak like this, it will really make people suspect that you are in Versailles."
As Tangning looked even more confused, Lin Yun said, "Let's put it this way. I went to Zhou Kang's house a while ago. The most I know about him is probably the layout of his rooms and the types of garbage on the floor. Other than that, I have no clue."
Jiang Mianmian added: "As soon as he got home, he had to eat. If he ate, his parents would drive him away. If he insisted on eating, he would be kicked out."
When talking about this experience, all the players present had good expressions. Lin Yun said with emotion: "Unless one has Zhou Kang's ability to connect to another dimension and vomit out the food he eats, there is no solution for him."
Lu Yuhua looked at Zhou Kang nervously, "He didn't spit it out completely."
Some people were stunned. He followed Lu Yuhua and looked at Zhou Kang. Zhou Kang still smelled of vomit like at the beginning. The biggest change was his expression. He looked lazy, like a fish without salt.
Even after hearing Lu Yuhua's words, Zhou Kang just raised his eyelids and glanced at Lu Yuhua.
"The monster in his body has become bloated." Lu Yuhua looked at Zhou Kang. He spoke very softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing something scary.
Zhou Kang didn't look surprised at all. He took a big sip of coffee and said, "You are too nervous. You are probably just trying to be energetic. If you don't have much fighting spirit, you will suddenly go crazy and hurt people."
A player who loses his fighting spirit in an A-level copy is almost sentencing himself to death in the future.
The onlookers shuddered.
"Before we find a solution, let's go to Zhou Kang's house first." Bai Wuliang suggested.
No one objected.
"So are we going home next?" Jiang Mianmian, "If I do, I'll take you to pick out some women's clothes."
When talking about women's clothing, Jiang Mianmian's eyes became a little excited. He held his chin up and looked at Tangning. Although he didn't say a word, Tangning felt that Jiang Mianmian's eyes were filled with thousands of words.
"Your eyes are so perverted, I'm a little scared." Bai Wuliang said to Jiang Mianmian sincerely.
Jiang Mianmian rolled her eyes at Bai Wuliang, "I'm not interested in you. I just want to see the miracle Tangning change her outfit online. The last time she had mermaid skin she looked so pretty."
Bai Wuliang touched his chin, as if he wanted to refute Jiang Mianmian, but after pondering for a long time, he nodded.
Tangning: “?”
At this moment, Zeng Yishuang suddenly said, "Let's go home. Mom will send a message to tell her that Dad is drunk as hell."
"Did your dad just get drunk? Was he drunk enough to fall asleep?" Jiang Mianmian.
Zeng Yishuang nodded: "Almost."
This was a rare opportunity. After a brief discussion, the players decided to go to Zeng Yishuang's home. On the way to Zeng Yishuang's home, Zeng Yishuang introduced his family situation: "The house is big, 80 square meters, with two bedrooms and a living room. Dad and mom sleep in the master bedroom and the second bedroom. By the way, the door lock is broken, and the kitchen is equipped with a sliding door. There is no place to hide people in the house. The space is too small and we played chase games..."
As Zeng Yishuang continued to talk, the car drove to the gate of a residential area.
Led by Zeng Yishuang, the players got out of the car and headed for Zeng Yishuang's home. Everyone has now come up with a simple plan to fight violence with violence. If he alarms Zeng's father with just one door, then they will use six against one and beat him to death, and then tie Zeng's father up tightly.
Zeng Yishuang agreed with this plan very much. For this plan, everyone bought some weapons and equipment. Tang Ning got anti-wolf spray and a fruit knife.
"Although Dad has been exercising all year round and practiced martial arts when he was young, it is difficult for him to win when he is drunk and fighting six people alone." Zeng Yishuang said calmly.
"That," Tangning said with self-awareness, "I don't have much fighting power. I should be one against five."
"Even if it's one against five, this side will still win." Zeng Yishuang smiled for the first time, and he seemed to be in a bad mood about what was going to happen next.
The other players looked solemn. Although they had the upper hand at the moment, in the A-level dungeon, they felt that things would go as smoothly as they had imagined.
He finally arrived at Zeng Yishuang's house and inserted the key into the door lock. The moment the door opened, the perspective of some players changed, from an adult perspective to a child's perspective.
Tang Ning lowered his head in confusion and looked at his own hands. They were the hands of a child, probably only four or five years old.
He looked at his clothes and children's clothes. The fruit knife and anti-wolf spray he had bought were all gone. Only the Su Anyun-style porcelain doll was left in his arms.
"Come here quickly." A woman wearing an apron waved at Tang Ning. Tang Ning looked around blankly while holding the porcelain doll. There were no other players in front of the Zeng family's house. Tang Ning was the only one left.
The woman was obviously shouting " " at Tang Ning.
, Shuang, this name is very similar to Zeng Yishuang’s nickname.
Tang Ning raised his head and stared blankly at the strange woman. He wanted to admit something but it seemed like the truth.
System, should I play the Zeng family copy alone from Zeng Yishuang's perspective when he was a child
How clever! The system paused and added: Now you are the same as you were when you were a child.
It's very cute.
The cute little Tang Ning said in a clear and loud voice: Grass.
