Flirting with the World

Chapter 7

Lin thought to herself, You look too ordinary. I can't recognize you at a glance like I did with Hua Manlou and Legolas.

Hua Manlou said, "Her codename is' Wuxin '. She's a member of our guild."

Lin Sanjiu didn't really listen. Her mind was still filled with the tragic scene of the dwarf's death. His blood was everywhere, and the slender figure had melted into a pile of mud, emitting a nauseating stench.

Wuxin looked down and finally stopped at Lin's injured hand. She said, "Hua Manlou, why don't you treat her wound first?"

Hua Manlou said apologetically, "Sorry, Hua Mou didn't bring any ointment with her."

"Band-Aids!" Wuxin said, "Don't you know how to use band-aids?"

Hua Manlou, "…" I really don't know.

Lin, "…"

After a while, Wuxin said, "Sorry, I forgot that you just came to this world not long ago."

Hua Manlou said, "It's fine. Hua Mou does have a lot to learn."

Without a choice, Wu Xin stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Lin. Very naturally, he picked up Lin's injured hand, brought it to his mouth, and sucked away the blood. Then, he stuck two band-aids on her wound to completely cover it.

"It's done."

Wuxin put down Lin's hand and said, "I can't stand it. You're already an adult, but you still hurt yourself."

Lin, "…"

Wuxin said, "Be careful next time. If you get hurt again, all the ghosts within a ten-mile radius will come and eat you!"

Lin, "Okay."

Wu Xin sat back on the sofa and shook his legs. Then, he looked at Lin Yiqian arrogantly. "I say, Miss Lin, you've logged into the system for so long. Have you not eaten a single meal?"

Lin was indeed hungry. That was why she had gone to the kitchen to look for food. That was why she had cut her finger while peeling an apple. After entering the system, other than a glass of wine at the seaside villa, she had not eaten anything.

She moved her lips and said bitterly, "That's true. But, who, exactly, are you … Ah?

Why … are you talking like a mother? "

Wuxin's thin body trembled imperceptibly. Hua Manlou suddenly coughed.

Lin: "…" He suddenly realized that he was being too outspoken again.

Wuxin pursed her lips and pretended to be nonchalant as she turned to Hua Manlou and asked, "Did the Undead go to the theater again?"

Hua Manlou laughed. "You already know the answer."

Wuxin: "…" What else can I ask?

Lin felt that the atmosphere was a little off. She suspected that she had overlooked something and looked helplessly at Hua Manlou.

Hua Manlou stared out the window with his invisible eyes, as if waiting for an opportunity.

The ghosts outside the window had mostly dispersed. The night sky on the top floor of the skyscraper was lonely and boring.

Wuxin said, "How much time is left in this world?"

Hua Manlou did not answer this question. He was not someone who would ignore other people's questions. Lin was stunned for a while before she realized that Wuxin was asking her.

But how could she answer this question? She returned to the awkward state she had when she met Wuxin's gaze.

"What's wrong with you?" Wuxin said impatiently. "Don't tell me you're afraid of the ghosts outside?"

"Of, course, I'm, afraid," Lin said matter-of-factly. "Wouldn't it be strange if I wasn't?"

Wuxin looked at Hua Manlou with a confused gaze.

Hua Manlou said, "Her situation is a little complicated. It's different from yours."

Wuxin stared at Lin and asked again, "You really don't know me?"

Lin shook her head.

She really had no clue. She was not the kind of person who paid special attention to others. She did not pay attention to anything other than her daily research.

Wuxin's eyes flashed with confusion, anxiety, and worry. In the end, she simply closed her eyes and sat on the sofa with her legs crossed.

Time passed by slowly. Finally, Hua Manlou said, "They're back."

Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, she did not have to stay in such an awkward situation.

Wuxin said, "Since he's here, I won't stay here any longer."

After saying such a strange sentence, she got up and left the living room. She walked down the corridor in a pair of slippers.

Lin looked at her back and sighed. "I don't understand … Is she angry with me?"

"Maybe," Hua Manlou sighed. "Although you have eyes, your eyes never stay on others. Do you rarely care about what others think?"

Lin said, "Maybe you're right."

Hua Manlou said, "Maybe you should pay more attention to the people around you."

A minute later, the elevator rose to the top floor. The footsteps of Undead, Meow, and Legolas were heard. The three of them chatted as they walked.

Meow couldn't wait to tell the people in the living room, "This time it went so smoothly!"

Legolas said, "I didn't even shoot a single arrow."

As soon as he said that, the three of them saw the living room covered in blood and corpses. Meow said, "Did we go to the wrong place?"

However, Hua Manlou and Lin were looking at them. Obviously, they had something to say.

Undead noticed Lin's injured hand and frowned. "Are you hurt?"

Lin shook her head and raised her injured middle finger, indicating that she was fine.

Undead: "…"

Meow: "Rookie, why did you raise your middle finger?"

Lin was speechless. "… I just wanted to say that I'm fine. Uh, it's just that this house is a bit messy. It's going to take a while to clean it up."

Hua Manlou said, "Miss Lin accidentally cut her hand tonight and attracted all the ghosts nearby."

Undead, Meow, and Legolas were all stunned. Then, Meow burst into laughter. "Hahahahaha, I was wondering why tonight's mission was so easy. It turns out that all the monsters were attracted here. No wonder … Hahahahaha."

Legolas couldn't help but laugh. "Thank you for your hard work tonight."

Lin was speechless. "… You're the one who worked hard, Mr. Hua."

Hua Manlou: "… It's fine."

Lin: "Did you get anything tonight?"

Undead: "The net is cast. We'll see what happens tomorrow."

Meow said sarcastically, "Do you want to go with us tomorrow?

However, it's quite dangerous tomorrow. I advise you not to go. "

Lin: "… That's great. I won't go tomorrow."

Everyone: "…" Why did the provocation backfire?

Lin: "What's wrong? Do you have anything to say?

Or is it more dangerous to stay in the guild? "

Meow was a little discouraged. "I suspect that she's a fake creator."

Undead: "Indeed, there's no one more cowardly than her."

Legolas smiled but didn't say anything. Hua Manlou defended Lin. "Miss Lin shot the dwarf tonight. She's quite brave."

Undead: "She got lucky."

Lin: "…" She did get lucky.

Undead: "You have to go tomorrow. Someone will protect you."

Lin wanted to refuse, but before she could open her mouth, she realized that Undead didn't give her any room to refuse.

She wasn't an adventurous person. She would never cause trouble for herself if she could. Adventures and duels were 2D things that had nothing to do with her.

In reality, she probably wouldn't even be interested in these things.

However, after such a series of events, she was already numb to it … It didn't matter whether she went or not.

What could be more stimulating than a blood-soaked pool, a swimming skinned man, a cruel massacre, and an ugly ghost?

Moreover …

The big boss in front of her, Undead, was already her boyfriend. He was handsome and domineering, quiet and considerate. She should at least give him some face.

Yu Shilin agreed to go to the opera house the next day to enjoy the deadly performance.

"Do we just need to catch the murderer?" Lin Dao asked.

Undead: "In addition to catching the murderer, we also need to put him on trial.

The ghost system follows a trial rule. As system players, our mission is not only to find the key person, but also to put the guilty person on trial. The judge will sentence the guilty person according to the severity of the crime. The guilty person will be sentenced to the corresponding hell, or his data will be erased from the system forever. "

"There's a Judge class?" Lin Dao said, "This requires a high level of skill for the player …"

Meow: "That's right. A Judge is the core of a team. As a mature guild, we naturally have a Judge class player. Right, shouldn't we let her meet Wuxin now?"

Hua Manlou: "Miss Lin has already met Wuxin."

Meow spread out his hands.

Lin Dao: "So she's a system player?"

Lin was a little confused. Previously, she thought that only Undead and herself were game players. Wuxin was the same as Hua Manlou and the others, a system NPC, which was what they called an indigenous person.

Everyone looked at Lin with a strange expression. Lin explained, "She asked me if I knew her. I think she's an indigenous person. Am I supposed to know a system player?" Lin couldn't figure it out. "Besides, why would I know a system player?

I've only just arrived! "

Undead: "You've lost your memory."

This sentence was earth-shattering. Lin was completely stunned. Looking at the serious expressions on their faces, she slowly realized the complexity of this matter.

"How do you know I've lost my memory?"

Undead said, "Ignoring the time in the system, what year do you think it is now outside?"

Lin: "Year 2020 …" The last time she went out to buy ingredients, the supermarket was playing an advertisement for the Tokyo Olympics.

"Your memory stops at 2020," Undead said, "but it's already 2023. You've lost almost three years of memory."

Lin was completely shocked. She tried to keep calm and said, "You … do you have evidence that it's 2023 now?"

Undead: "You've already met Wuxin?"

Lin nodded.

Undead: "She's your cousin who's six years younger than you. She's already eighteen this year. Can you tell?"

Lin: "… …"
