Chapter 22 My Blessings
"Are you here to assess the new members of the guild?" Chi Yuan asked.
Li Wu neither answered nor denied it, which confirmed Chi Yuan's guess.
“You saw that too…” Li Wu thought for a moment before remembering what that person’s name was in this pass, “Su Yumin.”
He originally came to assess the new members of the guild, and the Meimei Building dungeon was of moderate difficulty, making it suitable for newcomers... But when he saw Su Yumin, he felt something was wrong.
It wasn't until he saw Chi Yuan at the management office the next day that he realized something.
There's a problem with this instance.
There's one more person in the instance.
“Moreover, this copy cannot report errors,” Li Wu said. “The live stream is working normally, but the system cannot report errors.”
The number of players in a dungeon is fixed. If there are more players than expected, it only means one thing: an incomprehensible creature has entered the dungeon. This is extremely dangerous for both the players and the dungeon, and could easily cause the dungeon to collapse.
"Is Pei Xingyan the player you're going to test?" Chi Yuan asked, leaning against the wall.
"Ah."
“It looks quite ordinary,” Chi Yuan said.
Li Wu didn't answer. The guild valued Pei Xingyan, this newcomer, naturally because of his abilities... He sat in his chair, looking at Chi Yuan, "When will you let us leave?"
"Wait a minute," Chi Yuan said.
"I need to verify your identities one by one."
He looked at Li Wu, "Who knows if you're the one who snuck in?"
……
As Chi Yuan walked down the corridor of the Meimei Building, he saw a security guard passing by.
The security guard was carrying a person who looked "familiar." "A new fake?" Chi Yuan asked.
He stopped in front of the security guards.
"Discovered by 908," the security guard said expressionlessly.
"908?" Chi Yuan thought carefully and remembered that this was Su Yumin's room. He gestured to the group of security guards that they could leave with the dummy, but to his surprise, the group of security guards did not leave.
"Please come with us," the security guard said.
"You have already deserted the group once without permission."
Chi Yuan clicked his tongue inwardly, but said nothing, only nodding.
"Where did the residents of 508 go?" Chi Yuan followed and asked.
"I don't know," the security guard said.
Chi Yuan followed the security guards to the first floor, then watched them walk towards the basement, and then... those fake people were broken in fours and thrown into the basement.
As they closed the door, they both looked at Chi Yuan. "What are you looking at?"
These people turned their heads at the same speed and angle... as if they were copied and pasted, Chi Yuan thought, looking at the group of security guards, but he remained calm.
"The two I caught are fine."
"We can let them go."
Then, he heard the system announce that someone had completed the task.
……
Su Yumin looked at Shen Rui, "Are you a fake?"
"That's what he said." Shen Rui remained calm after hanging up the phone.
Su Yumin looked at Shen Rui, feeling that Yan Xun's actions in asking them to search for things had ulterior motives... Was it because there was still food in room 404? Were their trash cans empty? Did the people in room 404 not need to eat?
He stared at Shen Rui for a long time without saying a word.
Just as Shen Rui felt a chill run down his spine from his gaze, Su Yumin suddenly turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Shen Rui glanced over and saw Su Yumin in the kitchen raise a cleaver and chop off her own fingers—
"boom!"
The sound of a huge cleaver clashing against a cutting board was mixed with the cracking of bones.
Just when Shen Rui thought there would be a bloodbath, Su Yumin suddenly raised his hand and said, "Look."
He waved to Shen Rui, "No blood was drawn."
"It seems that not only are you a fake, but I am too."
"Crazy," Shen Rui thought, and he involuntarily took a few steps back... Fortunately, Su Yumin did not intend to attack him for the time being. He just stared at his fingers, and after a while, he suddenly laughed.
"Haha, interesting."
He went into the living room, sat on the sofa, and then raised his hand towards the ceiling—
"How interesting."
"We are all fakes."
……
When Yan Xun woke up, the room was completely dark.
He heard even breathing beside him, and after a moment of reaction, he turned to look at his surroundings.
In the dimly lit room, Gui Yuchong leaned his head against him, his head resting on a pillow in his arms. He was fast asleep, and his body was unconsciously tilting towards him, his hair falling onto his shoulder.
Yan Xun glanced at it a few times, then stood up, supporting himself on the side of the sofa.
The TV had been turned off long ago, of course. Yan Xun picked up the blanket from the floor... He naturally didn't have this before he went to sleep. He glanced back at Gui Yuchong, who was still fast asleep on the sofa, and simply returned the blanket that the other party had brought to him.
He went into the kitchen, poured himself a glass of water, then tore open the bread packaging in the shopping bag and took a big bite.
The room was only illuminated by the dim light from the kitchen. Perhaps because Gui Yuchong was not sleeping soundly, he quickly shifted on the sofa, as if he had a nightmare and woke up with a start.
He only breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw Yan Xun in the kitchen.
"When did I fall asleep?" Yan Xun asked, swallowing the bread in his mouth.
“You watched TV for a while and then went to sleep,” Gui Yuchong said. He glanced at the blanket on his body, folded it neatly, and put it aside. Then he slowly walked from the living room to the kitchen, which was just a few steps away.
Standing next to Yan Xun, she poured herself a glass of water.
He drank water slowly. If a third person were to observe carefully at this moment, they might notice that his drinking motions and swallowing frequency were consistent with Yan Xun's.
He was imitating Yan Xun's movements.
Just as Yan Xun put down his glass, he also put it down.
"I'm so hungry too." Gui Yuchong turned his head to look at Yan Xun, seemingly very interested in the bread in his hand.
Yan Xun: "?"
He glanced at the last bit of bread in his hand, and looked at Gui Yuchong with some puzzlement, "Didn't you see all the food in the room?"
After saying that, he stuffed the remaining bread into his mouth under Gui Yuchong's gaze.
"Go get it yourself if you want to eat it."
Gui Yuchong's gaze followed the last bit of bread in his hand to his face... Only after Yan Xun finished the last bit of bread did he lower his head somewhat dejectedly, "Oh."
Yan Xun thought for a moment, "Do you need me to feed you?"
"Is that okay?" Gui Yuchong looked up again.
"You're dreaming." Yan Xun chuckled inwardly, thinking, "Sorry, Branding Iron."
If you were facing your stock-buying trolls right now, they'd probably be willing to feed you... but me? No way!
He watched Gui Yuchong walk listlessly toward the bedroom with his head down, and took the opportunity to ask the system about the comments in his live stream.
Upon hearing this, the system glanced at the live stream and suddenly found it somewhat difficult to understand—
[I'm so happy for Gui Yuchong and Yan Xun! They're a perfect match!]
[I, BBB·CCC, sincerely wish Gui Yuchong and Yan Xun a perfect match!]
[I also want to express my sincere blessings to Gui Yuchong and Yan Xun! May they be a perfect match and have a baby soon!]
The system couldn't understand the comments, so it could only hesitantly say to Yan Xun.
[...They seem to be shipping you two a bit.]
Yan Xun: "...?"
"Who two?"
"You and Gui Yuchong," the system said decisively.
