After contacting Wang Taidi, Xiao Lan hung up the communication.
Seeing that it was still early and it was not time to sleep, he might as well go to the training ground to practice his hands.
After greeted Luo, he went directly to the training ground.
Xiao Lan directly chose the opponent to start the fight. He felt that he had become stronger recently, probably since he cleared the customs of Apartment 404. Even though his poverty has not increased much recently, his physique is advancing by leaps and bounds.
This made him a little puzzled, could it be his talent
With the opponent who always knocked him over before entering the game, Xiao Lan solved it without much effort. Then he changed to a stronger opponent and started a new round of being The experience of wandering between beating and beating.
When leaving the training ground, Xiao Lan met an unexpected person-Qi Ning.
Qi Ning was still wearing his black windbreaker, his face was still the beak mask that he would never take off. The snow-colored hair was very conspicuous in the crowd, and he carried a vintage leather suitcase in his hand. The player obviously has storage items, but this person prefers to use the suitcase, which is the same as his acting style, revealing a maverick taste.
The only difference is that he has a pendant on his neck today.
He carried an aura that was incompatible with his surroundings. Players who recognized him nearby couldn't help avoiding him. For a while, a vacuum zone appeared around him.
Qi Ning was walking out of the training ground, turning a blind eye to the surrounding or frightened or vigilant eyes. His steps were relaxed and relaxed, as if he had just returned from a walk.
He happened to see Xiao Lan too, so he slowly stepped forward and said in a low voice with a weak sense of energy and blood, "Meet me again, Xiao Lan."
Xiao Lan was not surprised that Qi Ning knew his name. After all, he was an advanced player, and it was not difficult to inquire about him.
Xiao Lan nodded at him as a greeting: "It's been a long time since I saw you, I didn't expect to see you here."
Qi Ning said with a rare smile in his tone: "I also need to rest. After all, life is very fragile. No matter how extreme happiness is, I can only enjoy it once, but here I can recall the past happiness countless times."
Speaking, his hand made a gesture of cutting with a scalpel.
I want to know what he wants to cut.
It turned out that he came to the training ground only to choose to fight against the wanted criminals he had killed, and then experience the feeling of killing each other again.
Qi Ning's happiness is really out of ordinary taste, and it is a high level that ordinary people can't match.
Xiao Lan's black line: "You, this is called... Rest..."
"Hahaha..." Qi Ning laughed lowly, and sent out an invitation to Xiao Lan, "Since I meet by chance, do you want to have a cup of coffee and chat? I'll treat you."
Xiao Lan was really surprised this time. He thought this person would only appear on the way to hunt down wanted criminals. Why did he not only see him at the training ground today, but also drink coffee leisurely
I'm afraid it's not being worn by human souls.
Brother, are you serious about wearing this mask and saying that you want to drink coffee
Seeing Xiao Lan's face in surprise, Qi Ning added: "Anyway, the players cannot hurt each other in the residence, and you are not my target type. Don't worry about me attacking you."
Xiao Lan was not worried that Qi Ning would attack him, but Qi Ning's abnormality today aroused his curiosity. He nodded, "Okay."
Xiao Lan originally thought that Qi Ning would take him to an underground cafe with a medieval style. There might be coffin candles and other decorations around, but Qi Ning just took him to the corner of the street with a simple and stylish decoration with many decorations. The plant's player cafe is nothing more than.
The two separately ordered what they wanted.
The players in the player store are all made by the players, and the speed is not as fast as the system store, but most of the players choose here to experience manual services, and don't mind waiting a little longer.
While waiting for the coffee to be delivered, Qi Ning chatted with Xiao Lan casually: "The speed of your upgrade surprised me."
Xiao Lan recalled that it was about three months since he entered the world of descent. He asked, "Why, three months is fast?"
Qi Ning propped his head with one hand and looked at him: "Do you know how long the average player will stay at the junior level?"
Xiao Lan shook his head, he really didn't know this.
Qi Ning: "The average is about half a year. Of course, this refers to those who have survived. The frequency of entry into the game for junior players is generally 3-7 days. That is to say, it takes at least 25 or 6 games to level up."
"Upgrades within 10 games are all very promising potential seeds."
"How about you? I guess it won't be more than five games."
Xiao Lan raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that his upgrade speed would be so amazing among players, no wonder it would attract the attention of Samsara.
Qi Ning looked at the crowd outside the window: "The last time I saw such a talented player was Wang Ke."
Xiao Lan asked: "Are you familiar with Wang Ke?"
Qi Ning: "Not really, but the Wang family brothers are very famous. They were underage when they entered the game, but Wang Ke was very ruthless and dared to fight, and the speed of upgrading was very fast. At that time, it attracted the attention of many people and many organizations. They all wanted to recruit him, but they were all rejected."
"Later, as Wang Ke’s reputation grew, everyone noticed Wang Teddy. Wang Ke Mingming was very strong but had to take a useless brother. He even gave him almost all high-level props. He didn’t The reason for joining the player organization is also because I am afraid that someone will attack Wang Teddy during the internal fight. Everyone knows that you should not touch Wang Teddy, because Wang Ke will never die with you."
"This is very rare in the world of descent. The most common here are brothers rebelling and lover betrayal. The two of them are too special. Many people secretly taunt Wang Ke, saying that he is stupid."
Xiao Lan asked him back: "Where are you?"
"Me?" Qi Ning seemed to smile, "I am looking forward to what kind of end they will be in the end."
Xiao Lan: "You don't seem to be optimistic about them?"
Qi Ning pointedly pointed out: "Wang Ke's protection of his younger brother is too much. As Wang Teddy's upgrade, his pressure will definitely increase. No matter how strong he is, there will always be times when he can't handle it."
Xiao Lan was silent, because what Qi Ning said was right. When Wang Teddy was in the junior level, Wang Ke could take him with him, maybe even the intermediate level, but what should I do when he reached the advanced level
Qi Ning suddenly changed the subject: "What do you think of contract players?"
Xiao Lan looked at him: "If becoming a contract means that you can never be here, I think I might not choose to become a contract player."
Qi Ning: "Aren't you interested in the power of contract players?"
Xiao Lan: "Of course the strength is moving, but the price is too great and it's not worth it."
Qi Ning suddenly laughed lowly: "Hahahahaha...Yes, many people have forgotten that the reason why we have the current life is because we descended into the world, but they took the initiative to become a part of the descended world in order to survive. This is nothing more than a standard slaughter."
His laughter was low and dull, with a sense of breathlessness, as if he was trying to squeeze all the air in his lungs, which made people wonder if he would get sick from it.
However, even if the body of a high-level player looks thin, the vitality is actually extremely tenacious.
At this time, the coffee they ordered finally arrived late.
Xiao Lan picked up the cup and took a sip of his cold brew: "You hate coming to the world?"
The one in front of Qi Ning was a cup of latte, and the garland on it was a chubby cat, which did not match his cold appearance at all.
Qi Ning saw the coffee in front of him, but didn't mean to drink it. Instead, he stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his necklace: "Disgust, of course disgust..."
Xiao Lan noticed this necklace again, and Qi Ning treated it so much that he didn't even bring it when he entered the game.
Noting Xiao Lan's sight, Qi Ning handed the necklace over: "Want to see it?"
Xiao Lan took the necklace and found that there was a small button on it that seemed to be able to be opened. He asked Qi Ning with his eyes, and after obtaining the consent of the other party, Xiao Lan opened the necklace.
Inside is a photo of a man with a sunny smile. He is wearing a doctor's white coat and is looking back at the camera with a surprise smile, thinking that he has seen someone who makes him very happy.
"This is?" Xiao Lan vaguely guessed.
Qi Ning's tone did not fluctuate: "My boyfriend."
The guess was fulfilled, but Xiao Lan didn’t expect that Qi Ning’s boyfriend was like this... A normal person, maybe the former Qi Ning was not what he is now, he has a cheerful and sunny lover, and the two were on the street together. stroll.
Xiao Lan said, "You guys seem to have a good relationship."
Today's Qi Ning has an abnormal desire to talk: "Yes, he is called Cen Wei. We have been together since medical school. He is always passionate about life and is very happy all day. When drinking latte, you must specify that the garland is made into a cat, because he likes cats very much, but he is actually allergic to cats."
He looked at the cute coffee on the table: "His dream is to be an emergency doctor. When he can actually go to the hospital for an internship, he is so happy. Even if he works overtime all day, he never complained, even if... he was sent here. The man who is a wanted fugitive also tried his best to treat him."
Xiao Lan suddenly had a bad feeling: "What happened to him?"
The mask concealed Qi Ning's expression, making people unable to see clearly: "Dead, on the way home after a night shift, he was killed by the wanted man he rescued."
Qi Ning's voice was cold: "These guys are damned, how can they be enough once..."
Xiao Lan understood why Qi Ning loved to execute wanted criminals so much. What he was venting to these wanted criminals was his resentment of losing his lover.
I am afraid that when Cen Wei died, Qi Ning must have regretted it very much. Why did he let the wanted man appear in front of Cen Wei? Why didn't he get rid of him in advance so that he would not lose Cen Wei.
Xiao Lan handed the necklace back: "I'm sorry, it reminds you of sad things."
Qi Ning shook his head: "No, I don't mind. The dead can only live in the memory of the living, share this memory, and even if I die one day, he will still be alive."
"Today is Cen Wei's birthday, because you seem to be alive for a long time, so I will tell you about him."
"Sorry, taking your memory as his birthday present without authorization."
Xiao Lan has no resistance to remembering more people. He finally understands the reason why Qi Ning is abnormal today: "As long as you live, he will always live in your memory."
Qi Ning stood up and chuckled: "I have been in the Advent World for five years. Who knows how long I can live?"
"I owe you once, thank you, and goodbye."
His figure gradually walked away, tall and thin, with a dark loneliness, so special in the crowd.
When Qi Ning left, he left a black feather on the table, which was a communication item named [Dark Crow Whispers].
His meaning is self-evident, Xiao Lan can come to him once if he needs help in the future.
Just for a memory, the price is big enough.
—
Because of Qi Ning's affairs, Xiao Lan looked a little absent-minded when she returned to the room.
As a single mother and fetus, he has hardly considered matters related to love. Before something happened at home, he was busy living all day and there was no time at all. Now he is hovering between life and death all day without thinking about it.
But Qi Ning's performance today made him a little hard to forget.
That kind of deep longing, the anger and pain that has nowhere to vent, the hatred that can be carved into the bone marrow and can even distort the soul, and the obsession that wants the other person to continue to live in the memories of others even if he dies.
Is this... love
Xiao Lan lay on the sofa, staring at [Dark Crow Whispers] in her hand in a daze.
Luo saw Xiao Lan's strange behavior and approached him and asked, "What happened, sir?"
Xiao Lan didn't look back: "Today Qi Ning asked me for coffee. He gave this to me."
Luo's smile froze on his face: "..."
Is this being taken advantage of
No husband has ever had coffee with him!
Is it too late to kill the dark guy now? ! !
Xiao Lan continued to lie on his stomach, without seeing Luo's expression, he repeated Qi Ning and Cen Wei's affairs to Luo. Since Qi Ning wanted more people to remember Cen Wei's words, it shouldn't matter to tell Luo, after all, Luo seemed to be extremely tenacious.
After speaking, Xiao Lan turned around on a whim and asked Luo: "What would happen to you if I was killed one day?"
Luo didn't want to answer directly: "Kill all the people related to your death."
Xiao Lan stagnated: "..."
Luo's answer is too violent, and your elegant personality can't be better. Hey...
Luo leaned over and approached Xiao Lan, reaching out with one hand to support the armrest of the sofa, trapping Xiao Lan in the gap between himself and the sofa.
He looked at Xiao Lan, his light gold eyes no longer pretending to be black were serious, and his other hand gently rubbed Xiao Lan's cheek: "So, can you please live longer, sir."
Xiao Lan: "..."
who am I
where am I? !
Am I still straight...
