Qiu Yanzhi stopped a taxi destined for Ye Mingxu's house.
He looked at the passing scenery outside the window, and for some reason, his heart felt stuffy and painful, and he had a very strong and uneasy premonition.
Qiu Yanzhi beat his chest, thinking that the air in the car was too stuffy, so he opened the car window.
The cold wind from outside blew in, but it made him dizzy and even more uncomfortable.
Qiu Yanzhi glanced down at the map and found that he was only two kilometers away from Ye Mingxu's house, so he said to the driver in front, "I'm a bit motion sick, so just stop here."
Qiu Yanzhi felt a little better after walking on foot on the road.
What's the matter, it turns out that I don't get motion sickness.
Qiu Yanzhi rubbed his temples, then turned his head, and finally asked the question he had been thinking about all the way: "Rhubarb... How the hell is that quarantine card that depends on the situation?"
Rhubarb: "That card is playing its effect. The progress has just been completed. When the progress is 100% complete, you can check the usage result."
Qiu Yanzhi frowned and thought for a while: "I feel something is not right... I can never disturb myself. Did I cause He Zhou's company some trouble to let him work abroad? For example, let him go Africa?"
"Or did you find the black. Gang boss and threatened He Zhou that if he dared to disturb me again, he would hit him in the leg?"
rhubarb:…
Rhubarb: "I think what you're saying is a bit silly."
Qiu Yanzhi sighed and couldn't figure out how the isolation card was isolated. What strange method was used to make He Zhou never disturb him
Qiu Yanzhi thought of something, and suddenly turned his head: "Did that card erase He Zhou's memory?!"
Da Huang thought for a moment and said, "This is possible."
Qiu Yanzhi opened his mouth and suddenly felt strange in his heart.
Qiu Yanzhi walked silently on the road for a long time before he said again, "Da Huang, did I use that card a bit too much?"
When he used that card, it was because he was threatened by He Zhou and his neck was bitten. He was angry, afraid and hurt. When he fled to the bathroom, he almost lost his mind.
Now that he calmed down, Qiu Yanzhi thought that if the quarantine card was really useful, he would never see He Zhou again. He should have been elated, but somehow, he didn't feel happy at all.
"Excessive?!" Rhubarb raised his voice, "If that card really wiped his memory, the bug would be almost eliminated. It's a good thing, how could it be excessive?"
Da Huang continued, "And I think you just chose the wrong card, you shouldn't use the quarantine card, you should choose the troublesome character disappearance card, so as to avoid future troubles, hey, that card is 6,000 yuan cheaper than the quarantine card. Woolen cloth."
Qiu Yanzhi glanced at him: "Da Huang, that's murder."
"He Zhou is an NPC, and he is also an NPC with bugs all over his body. How can you say murder, that is to clear bugs! What's the matter with you? I didn't see you being so merciful!"
Qiu Yanzhi said coldly, "Then if I say you are the biggest bug in this game, how about eliminating you?"
Da Huang blushed anxiously: "I'm not a bug!"
"You're not a bug, so why did the two players with you all have an accident?"
Da Huang listened, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word. He turned his back a little sadly and stopped talking.
Qiu Yanzhi suddenly noticed that when a girl passed by him, her eyes were fixed on his neck, and her face was flushed.
Qiu Yanzhi reflexively touched the spot where the girl was staring, and then he touched the bite mark on his neck.
The degree of pain has been reduced, and this scar feels only a slight pain, as if it was bitten by a mosquito.
Qiu Yanzhi lowered his eyelids, pulled up his collar, and continued to walk forward.
"Since He Zhou can't disturb you anymore, I'll delete the marks on your neck." Da Huang had just quarreled with Qiu Yanzhi, and it's awkward to talk now.
"No need, in case there is any accident and encounter He Zhou, it will be exposed again."
"There will be no surprises, the isolation card will be successful."
"Shut up." Qiu Yanzhi said.
But it was really inappropriate to see Ye Mingxu with such a bite mark on his neck. Qiu Yanzhi went into a pharmacy, bought a sterile dressing, and put it on the wound.
When Qiu Yanzhi walked to Ye Mingxu's house, he was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, Yang Fengcheng cried and called poor all day long, but his cousin actually lived in this famous wealthy area.
And it's quite a coincidence that Zhang Yuxuan's parents' villa is also here, but Zhang Yuxuan has not lived at home for a long time.
As soon as Zhang Yuxuan was mentioned, Qiu Yanzhi remembered that Zhang Yuxuan went to the hotel to pick up his injured senior last night. I don't know how the situation is now...
"Senior!" Ye Mingxu opened the door and looked at Qiu Yanzhi. He smiled brightly and enthusiastically.
Ye Mingxu's strategy is really much easier than He Zhou, and he is warm and cheerful. He obviously hasn't known each other for a long time, but he gets along naturally like a good friend for many years.
But when he was with He Zhou, Qiu Yanzhi sometimes felt nervous or flustered.
Qiu Yanzhi and Ye Mingxu went to the supermarket, bought ingredients, sat and ate together, and chatted.
Only then did Qiu Yanzhi know that Ye Mingxu lived with his brother and sister-in-law, but Ye Mingxu lived on campus and usually only came back on weekends.
Qiu Yanzhi looked around and saw no one except the servant who was cleaning: "Aren't your eldest brother and sister-in-law at home?"
Ye Mingxu said, "My eldest brother has gone to work, and my sister-in-law is not feeling well. She is resting upstairs."
"That's right."
At this moment, the sound of the combination lock being opened came from the door, and only a sound was heard, and a tall man walked in.
Qiu Yanzhi was stunned for a moment.
He had seen this man twice in the last game.
Once in Shen Xingwei's bar, I saw this man put his arms around Zhang Yuxuan's senior and enter the box.
Once at his wedding, he was heard hanging out in the corner with his little lover.
Ye Mingxu shouted happily: "Brother, you are back! This is my senior, Qiu Yanzhi. Senior, this is my brother, Ye Hongyuan."
Ye Hongyuan simply said hello to him and went upstairs.
Qiu Yanzhi looked at his back and turned to ask Ye Mingxu, "...When did your brother and your sister-in-law get married?"
Ye Mingxu said: "My sister-in-law met when my brother was on a business trip abroad. He came back from abroad a week ago, and my brother got a certificate with him on the same day, but the wedding has not yet been held."
Ye Mingxu hesitated, looked up at Qiu Yanzhi, and said tentatively, "My brother and my sister-in-law are in same-sex marriage, do you reject it?"
Qiu Yanzhi said: "There is nothing to exclude, I am also gay."
Ye Mingxu seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this, and his eyes were full of smiles.
"What's your sister-in-law's name?" Qiu Yanzhi asked again without giving up.
"Izawa Yu."
Qiu Yanzhi felt that his last hope had also been wiped out.
Izawa Yu.
Zhang Yuxuan's senior I Zeyu.
In fact, Qiu Yanzhi originally ate here, but because he kept thinking about He Zhou, he was a little absent-minded, and he couldn't sit down when he heard this.
After telling Ye Mingxu that he still has something to do, he left first.
Not knowing what was going on, Qiu Yanzhi suddenly felt relieved the moment he stepped out of Ye Mingxu's house.
... It seems that I finally found a reason for myself to leave.
Qiu Yanzhi shook his head, put this strange and unreasonable idea behind him, and called Zhang Yuxuan.
Before Zhang Yuxuan answered the phone, Qiu Yanzhi heard a chaotic noise behind the phone. He frowned, "Zhang Yuxuan, which bar are you in?"
It turned out to be Shen Xingwei's bar.
... Is there only Shen Xingwei's bar in this game world
Qiu Yanzhi sighed and ran to the bar to hunt for people.
Obviously, except for Qiu Yanzhi and He Zhou, the story development paths of all NPCs in this game follow the same development path as the previous game, but I don't know what he and He Zhou did to cause the butterfly effect, which made Zhang Yuxuan advance ahead of schedule. It took two or three months to find out that his senior likes men, and even married a man.
Zhang Yuxuan drank cup after cup, as if he was going to be drunk to death there.
He cried and laughed.
Said that he took the senior to the hospital yesterday, and it was the anorectal department.
The senior said that he and her husband had an argument.
Zhang Yuxuan angrily wanted to go to the man to question, but was stopped by the senior.
The senior spoke to him in a calm and cruel tone.
"Zhang Yuxuan, if I knew you were so crazy, I shouldn't have asked you to take me to the hospital."
Zhang Yuxuan drank too heavily this time. After crying, he lay still on the table and passed out drunk. No matter how much Qiu Yanzhi pulled it, he couldn't pull it. Qiu Yanzhi had no choice but to call Ye Mingxu. Call and ask him to help.
Qiu Yanzhi and Ye Mingxu brought Zhang Yuxuan home out of breath.
When Zhang Yuxuan was put on the bed, both of them were sweating.
Zhang Yuxuan was also strangely drunk. When he was on the road just now, he was completely drunk, as if he had passed out. Now that he finally got him on the bed, he half-opened his eyes and started talking with a sob.
Zhang Yuxuan called out his senior's name with a crying voice, and then called Qiu Yanzhi after he finished.
In order to comfort him, Qiu Yanzhi responded and said I was there.
Zhang Yuxuan took Qiu Yanzhi's hand and started crying.
He said, Yanyan, my senior doesn't like me at all, I have liked him for so many years, much longer than you liked Ye Mingxu...
Just as Qiu Yanzhi wanted to stop Zhang Yuxuan's mouth, it was too late.
Ye Mingxu stood by the bed holding two bottles of water, and looked at Qiu Yanzhi, his eyes lit up.
Zhang Yuxuan cried in confusion again and said: Yanyan, you wore women's clothes for your junior for a day, but I wore it for my senior for 10 years...
Ye Mingxu's eyes were brighter than the lamp above Zhang Yuxuan's head.
Qiu Yanzhi felt that it would be more embarrassing to stay here any longer, so he took a bottle of water from Ye Mingxu's hand and walked to the balcony to blow the air.
Ye Mingxu also followed.
Ye Mingxu's cheeks were red: "...Senior, when did you like me?"
Qiu Yanzhi took out the cigarette case and said the lines he should have said: "Before you move into the dormitory."
"Then... did you wear the skirt that day for me?"
"Um."
Qiu Yanzhi opened the cigarette case and found that there was not a single cigarette in it.
"Senior!" Ye Mingxu shouted.
Qiu Yanzhi turned to look at him.
Ye Mingxu's face turned even redder, and his eyes were bright: "...I, I like you too."
Qiu Yanzhi didn't expect Ye Mingxu to confess to him so suddenly, and the whole person was a little confused.
Ye Mingxu looked at the senior staring blankly at him, and felt that Qiu Yanzhi was so cute.
Qiu Yanzhi blinked, knowing that he should close his eyes to receive the youthful kiss from this young man. But the moment Ye Mingxu's mouth was about to be printed, he tilted his head again.
Ye Mingxu found out that the senior had avoided, and looked a little embarrassed. From the side of his face to the ears, his face was red. He apologized awkwardly and said, "...Senior, I'm sorry, I was too impatient."
Qiu Yanzhi wondered why he had just avoided subconsciously.
It's even more strange that I should rejoice at the completion of more than half of the progress of the strategy at this moment, instead of standing there blankly, feeling that my heart is blocked and uncomfortable.
Qiu Yanzhi pursed his lips: "Let's go back to the dormitory."
Ye Mingxu looked down at his watch and said with some embarrassment: "Senior, the dormitory is locked at 23:00, and it's too late to go back now."
Qiu Yanzhi said, "Then sleep at Zhang Yuxuan's house today, and go back tomorrow. His apartment has two bedrooms and one living room. You go to the second bedroom, and I go to the living room."
"Senior, let me sleep in the living room!"
Qiu Yanzhi didn't argue with him again: "Okay, then I'll go get you a quilt."
When Qiu Yanzhi was lying on the second bed, Da Huang had not yet appeared.
It is estimated that he had an ambiguous atmosphere with Ye Mingxu just now, and Da Huang thought that something would happen and left automatically.
Qiu Yanzhi didn't know what was wrong with him, instead of thinking about how to completely attack Ye Mingxu next, he kept thinking about the quarantine card in his mind.
So he called out the control panel again, wanting to confirm the specific function of the isolation card again.
Da Huang was always by his side, and Qiu Yanzhi had basically never used the control panel, so he was very unskilled in the operation, and it took him a long time to find the interface for the purchased card.
Looking at the glittering golden words on the card, Qiu Yanzhi frowned.
"The progress of this card has been completed 60%, click to view the in-progress use effect."
What's the meaning? Can I view it now? Didn't Rhubarb say that you can check the use effect only when the progress is 100% completed
Qiu Yanzhi clicked OK to check suspiciously.
The control panel suddenly turned into a huge screen, and He Zhou's figure flashed on the screen.
Qiu Yanzhi looked at everything displayed above, the white light on the screen reflected on his face, and his expression turned into a bleak, bloodless pale.
He saw a truck rush in and kill him on the spot. He saw He Zhou staggering to his side. He saw He Zhou kneeling beside him, kissing his hand, begging him to wake up. He saw He Zhou crying bitterly by the roadside holding his body. He saw He Zhou kneeling towards his parents. He saw He Zhou holding his ashes and walking forward step by step, like a corpse.
The final picture was frozen in He Zhou's living room. There was no one in the house, all the lights were off.
He Zhou sat silently in the corner of the living room alone.
He was holding the ashes in his hands, and his eyes were looking straight ahead, out of focus.
Qiu Yanzhi's nose suddenly became sour.
He closed the control panel with trembling fingers, then put on his shoes and was ready to rush out.
Rhubarb flew over at this moment: "Qiu Yanzhi, where are you going?"
"I'm going to see him."
"Qiu Yanzhi, wake up!"
Qiu Yanzhi looked at Da Huang with red eyes: "You lied to me on purpose, right? You clearly know how this quarantine card is used, but you didn't tell me, making me think that He Zhou just lost his memory. You clearly know that He Zhou's parents died in a car accident in front of him, so many years later, he still has a serious shadow on the car accident, you still want me to disappear in front of He Zhou in the same way?!"
"Yes, I lied to you, but am I wrong? I just don't want He Zhou to hinder you, don't you want to see him again? Qiu Yanzhi, don't forget, you used the card to make He Zhou stop disturbing you. You, you brought it up yourself!"
"But I didn't expect to use such a disgusting method!"
Da Huang flapped his wings and stopped in front of him.
"Qiu Yanzhi, will you listen to me this time? The progress of the quarantine card has not been completed yet. After the progress is 100% completed, even if you appear in front of him, he will not recognize you, and will only think that you are a stranger. That's the only way to be safe!"
Qiu Yanzhi sneered: "You mean that it is safest to wait for him to go crazy?"
"I'm not saying he's going crazy, just indulging in the circumstances where you died, but otherwise he's fine..."
"That's driving him crazy!"
"Qiu Yanzhi, you can't go! The progress has not been completed, and the illusion of your death has not been completely created. He can still recognize you now. Have you thought about the consequences? When he saw the dead person appear in front of his eyes, What if the system crashes again?!"
Qiu Yanzhi grabbed him fiercely and threw him on the bed: "Get out!"
"Qiu Yanzhi!" Da Huang suddenly shouted, "Are you in love with him!"
It was answered by a loud slam of the door.
Qiu Yanzhi slammed the door so loudly that Ye Mingxu who was about to rest in the living room was stunned for a moment. Ye Mingxu sat up on the sofa and hurriedly asked Qiu Yanzhi what happened.
But Qiu Yanzhi didn't even look at him, just opened the door and ran out.
Qiu Yanzhi was running almost all the way. He ran for a long time before he saw a taxi and hurriedly stopped it. As a result, he encountered a traffic jam on the road again. Qiu Yanzhi got out of the taxi again and continued towards He Zhou. 's home ran over.
The night wind was a little cold, and it blew on his face like a cold knife. The speed of running was too fast, making his throat swell with a fishy sweetness, making his abdomen cramp and hurt.
He ran to He Zhou's house like this, then entered the password and opened He Zhou's door.
The whole house was pitch black.
The man sat dejectedly on the ground in the corner. Even when he heard someone coming in, he remained motionless and unresponsive.
Snapped.
Qiu Yanzhi turned on the biggest light in the room.
He was panting heavily, holding the door frame with one hand and covering his cramping and aching abdomen with the other, his voice hoarse.
"... He Zhou, I'm here."
