MTL - Top Horror Novelist-Chapter 167

Soon a waiter came to ask Chi Yiyin and others about the menu.

Courteous demeanor, just the right smile, as if this is a restaurant somewhere in reality.

Everything seemed so gentle, and there was no danger to be seen.

But everyone knew very well that this was just the last calm before the storm.

When the hot and delicious food is served, the fragrance that wafts out makes people's index fingers move. It is a top-notch cooking skill that even veterans can't find any problems.

Jing Cha, who had exhausted his mind and body just now, suddenly had a rumbling stomach, like thunder, which was so clear and eye-catching in the quiet restaurant.

There were also some players who took this opportunity to look at Chi Yiyin's table, quietly and quickly looked at these people in a few short glances to assess their threat level.

Hongniao stared at Jingcha with rounded eyes, her old face flushed, feeling quite embarrassed by the sound.

Jingcha didn't care, and even blinked inexplicably, not understanding why Hongniao felt embarrassed.

The little ancestor was upright and confident, and never knew what embarrassment was—embarrassment? Whoever feels embarrassed, stand up.

As long as everyone who finds you embarrassing is dead, you are not embarrassing.

——Beijing Tea's philosophy of life.

He was also the first to move his chopsticks.

Naturally, he became a guinea pig for drug testing.

Even when Chi Yiyin wanted to stretch out his chopsticks, Jingcha stopped him vigilantly, and pushed it up first.

Li Sijun saw this scene in his eyes, and he brought the food to Chi Yiyin with a natural attitude.

"Don't worry, the food will be fine."

Li Sijun said lightly to Jingcha: "The opposing camp wants a new god, not because they are mentally ill. Even if they test candidates, they won't put poison in food."

"If you want to avoid danger, you have to think in the other person's way of thinking."

Although these words were addressed to Jing Cha, but at the last sentence, Li Sijun had already smiled and turned to look at Chi Yiyin.

Chi Yiyin noticed.

He covered his lips, looked at Li Sijun with deep eyes, thoughtful.

Due to his identity, Li Sijun cannot directly disclose too much information, but now that the "rules" have disappeared, appropriate hints are still possible.

And the last sentence was more like what Li Sijun was saying to him.

If you can't tell him the answer directly, then tell him the way to solve the problem and teach him how to fish.

Chi Yiyin was thinking, but Jingcha was already furious.

"Who do you think is mentally ill!"

Jingcha wanted to pounce on Li Sijun with all her teeth and claws, angrily trying to fight.

Hongniao hurriedly hugged Jingcha's waist tightly from behind, not to let her little ancestor really anger the boss.

"Ancestor! Aren't you hungry? Let's eat, eat!"

In the noisy background, Li Sijun remained motionless, still smiling and lowering his head to chat with Chi Yiyin, as if it was not Jingcha's cursing, but the melodious violin.

Chi Yiyin raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were stained with a smile.

At the very least, Li Sijun's attitude towards Jingcha and the others was much more familiar than at the beginning, and he even teased the rabbit.

It's not like being indifferent and rejecting people thousands of miles away at the beginning.

Li Sijun, who clearly dislikes humans the most, has changed his attitude.

Or... for Chi Yiyin's sake, to blend into the environment around him.

Chi Yiyin could tell that she also took these details to heart.

When he looked at Li Sijun again, his eyes were complicated and probing.

Li Sijun was calm and gentle as if nothing had happened.

The other players used the name of the restaurant to observe and size up their opponents. Only Chi Yiyin, because of the existence of Li Sijun and Jingcha, really became a situation of eating wholeheartedly.

Whenever Chi Yiyin was distracted to observe other people, Li Sijun would immediately notice and persuade him to come back and let him concentrate on eating.

The reason used is also very convincing to Chi Yiyin—"The Yunhai Train has no copy duration, and I don't know when it will end. Yinyin, are you going to be hungry all the time? Then when you need physical strength to fight back, you don't even have the strength to reach out. "

Chi Yiyin readily accepted this reason, and felt that what Li Sijun said made sense, and decided to eat and sleep well to adjust his state.

A day or two can be tough, but a protracted battle can't.

But even so, Chi Yiyin did not stop observing the people around him.

The escaped players each occupied a corner of the restaurant, some gathered in twos and threes, and some were alone.

No matter how well they concealed it, Chi Yiyin could still see the suppressed sadness from their behavior.

Some players always subconsciously want to talk to their side, or subconsciously pass items to the side, until when they turn their heads and see the empty side, watching things fall to the ground, they suddenly realize that there is no one around them anymore. That person is gone.

They... lost their companions in the ordeal.

The playground is too harsh to break even the most sane of minds.

In this crisis-ridden place of god-making trials, only by constantly breaking through the limits of human beings, withstanding the severe test of the soul, and subtly approaching God from human beings, can we survive under the "agreement" that no one knows .

Here, companion is a word that is far heavier than relatives or lovers. It represents absolute trust and dependence, mutual understanding, and understanding of each other's every feeling and every sadness.

He could even stay with him for twelve years, and was tempered by hundreds of thousands of deaths that passed him by, making him even more indestructible.

Will not abandon, will not betray, until death.

Many partners have never even been separated, advancing and retreating together like Siamese twins.

The loss of such an existence makes those players still have desolation and loneliness in their eyes even though they have passed the test.

Chi Yiyin accurately picked these people out of the crowd. He sighed in his heart, but he was still sane enough to cruelly classify these people into the category that does not need to be focused on, and then told the rest of the players who needed to be on guard. I got Red Bird and asked him about the information of these people.

Red Bird was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously asked: "Where are the others? Don't you need to be on guard?"

Chi Yiyin shook her head, her brows and eyes were calm: "They are no different from death."

"Red Bird, if Jingcha dies, can you complete the rest of the journey alone?"

Chi Yiyin's assumption made Red Bird stop what he was doing, and the knife and fork slid across the plate in a daze, making a harsh sound.

Other players looked this way.

Red Bird couldn't hide his shock.

"You... this is not a joke, what are you talking about?"

Red Bird looked a little sullen.

Jingcha also looked at Chi Yiyin with a puzzled expression, not understanding why he made such an assumption.

Chi Yiyin lowered her eyes lightly, looking at the black tea that Li Sijun pushed over.

Thin warm water mist rises, exuding the soft sweetness of honey, which is reassuring.

He looked sideways at Li Sijun, and it was no surprise that he got a gentle smile.

It seemed that no matter when he turned to Li Sijun, no matter what he needed, whether it was emotional understanding and response, or strength support, Li Sijun would respond to him without the slightest hesitation or neglect.

People can be spoiled.

There are no more emotional sculptures, even if he can walk through thousands of miles of ice sheets alone, but when he feels the warmth and gets used to having a companion who will respond to him at any time, all sadness and anger will be understood, and danger and death will be shared with him. shared responsibility

It is more unbearable to have and then lose than to have never had.

Chi Yiyin quietly looked at Li Sijun for a moment, then sighed softly, and said to Red Bird: "Those players who have been eliminated by me, what they are experiencing now is exactly the assumption you don't want to accept."

"lose."

He asked the red bird: "You can't even accept the pure fantasy of hypothetical, if it really happened, what would you do?"

Red Bird was silent.

Whether it is the torture in the dark prison of Tangjia City, or the danger and fear in the underground city, because of Jingcha, he knows that Jingcha is waiting for him to go back, and he cannot violate the agreement he made with Jingcha to leave the game field together, so Only then will he keep gritting his teeth and hold on, not to let himself collapse.

Beijing tea is his willpower.

But if Jingcha dies...

Then what is the need for his persistence?

Even the companion who had agreed to leave together died here, how long can he go alone?

Just by imagining that scene, Red Bird's heart aches and he can hardly breathe.

He couldn't help but look sideways slightly, looking at the people Chi Yiyin mentioned.

Those few players always looked around subconsciously. Even though their brains knew very well that their companions were dead, their bodies still instinctively relied on their companions, unable to react at all.

However, no one will respond to them anymore.

Whether it is a smile or a few words, people who can discuss and bear the storm together...

gone.

Red Bird pursed her lips, and the smile that had just appeared on her face disappeared like this again.

He sighed silently.

Jingcha blinked, took out a black rabbit from the pocket of the sweater, and stuffed it into Red Bird's hands without any explanation.

Red Bird only felt the warmth in his hands, the heavy weight was still warm, and the rabbit arched back and forth in his palm, as if it was also comforting him.

He glanced down, then looked at Jing Cha, and smiled.

"rest assured."

"I won't let that happen," he said softly.

"Their tragedies will not reappear in us..."

But Tong Yao was silent.

She turned her head sadly, and never knew soberly for a moment that this was just a lie that Hongniao comforted Jingcha.

Chu Yueli and Skye... At the beginning, neither of them thought that they would die. The tragedy was too far away from them. The death and parting in the rumors were just another world separated by a window, which had nothing to do with them.

until something actually happens.

A death that cannot be traced back.

Only then did Tong Yao understand the train rules that the train conductor said before—time cannot be traced back.

I'm afraid, even if the power awakened by someone on this train is related to time, it will be restricted from use.

They cannot go back in time to save the dead.

There are two clear boundaries between life and death.

She slowly opened her eyes wide, and suddenly realized.

Since they can't go back to the past, they in the future can't go back to the present time either. So what she saw in the carriage before was not her future self!

what is that?

Bewitched and tested by the train?

Tong Yao explained his doubts to Chi Yiyin in a low voice, Chi Yiyin pursed his lips, and nodded to her that he would pay attention.

"However, you have to be careful, the box is not necessarily a safe place."

Chi Yiyin briefly told Tong Yao about the few of them entering the underground city, especially the reason why they were dragged into the abyss of death.

—that is death in the box.

The monsters that appeared in the closet for no reason, the blood flowing from the broken mirror pooled on the ground, the eyes that stared coldly at the outside world from all the gaps... The deaths of countless people were pieced together into huge corpses, which became enough to kill the living. monster.

At every corner and after every turn.

In all the moments when you let your guard down and fall asleep soundly.

"Even when you sleep, remember to keep one eye open."

Chi Yiyin smiled and shook her head: "It seems that the rules that the train conductor said before still have some credibility. At least, his suggestion is correct."

The balance that was maintained at both ends of the agreement was broken by Li Sijun's fury.

The balance is tipping in favor of the gods.

Even the train conductor, who used to be the system and is still in the camp of the gods, has gradually gained more authority, overwhelming the emergency management system that should have been balanced.

Chi Yiyin doesn't think the world consciousness will let it go.

At the moment when they didn't notice, the world consciousness will definitely find a way to find a way to balance again, and even completely crush the gods with one blow.

Could it be... Could it be Chi Yan and the people behind her?

Chi Yiyin narrowed her eyes, lost in thought.

After leaving the underground city, Chi Yan disappeared, and she never showed up after returning to the Yunhai train. I don't know what she is still planning.

Companions should be kept by your side, ready to help at all times.

The enemy should be placed within the range that can be seen.

It was like he kept Li Sijun by his side.

But now that Chi Yiyin's whereabouts cannot be grasped, Chi Yiyin is rarely anxious.

Attacks in the dark are more difficult to resist than damage in the bright.

Especially a character like Chi Yan.

"What are you thinking?"

Li Sijun, who had been watching Chi Yiyin all the time, keenly noticed the change in his mood.

Chi Yiyin subconsciously shook her head, wanting to deny it.

But he suddenly realized something, looked at Li Sijun probingly, and tried to ask after pondering: "I'm worried that the world consciousness will try to achieve balance again by wooing Chi Yan."

He was testing Li Sijun's attitude towards this matter.

Judging from Chi Yan's attitude towards Li Sijun, the two had fought against each other as early as twelve years ago, and Chi Yan regretted not being able to kill Li Sijun at that time.

This is also why Chi Yi will have a grudge against Li Sijun, and even show an angry look at him because Chi Yiyin didn't seize the best time to kill Li Sijun.

That being the case, how would Li Sijun evaluate Chi Yan?

Will she become a hindrance to him, or even join the world consciousness side?

Chi Yiyin wanted an answer.

And this question, I am afraid that only Li Sijun can answer it.

Under his nervous gaze with fine eyes, Li Sijun smiled.

"Although Chi Yan is an unstable factor, she alone can withstand the destructive power of thousands of troops, enough to overturn the entire world. However, there is one thing she will never do."

Li Sijun said calmly: "—Take refuge in the world consciousness."

"It should be said that killing the world consciousness would make her happier than killing me. There will not be another person in the world who wants the world consciousness to die more deeply than her."

That, however, was regarded as the source of shame by Chi Yan.

Even though Chi Yan's awakening power came from world consciousness when he was just born, he gave a baby a powerful concept that was too strong but could not be used at will, and threw her into the human world carelessly, letting her live and die freely.

But Chi Yan still relied on his own willpower to survive desperately, and gradually mastered the power of awakening—or in other words, the malicious curse of the world consciousness.

Chi Yiyin's growth was already difficult enough, but it would only be more difficult for Chi Yan to grow up, and even her adulthood was a miracle.

Although after the game field opened, Chi Yan left him for his own goals and obsessions and entered the game field. But in the first eleven years of Chi Yiyin's life, Chi Yan gave him the strictest protection.

And for a "monster", the best growth environment.

All the knowledge, skills, wisdom, philosophies... the brilliant civilizations recorded eight thousand years since the existence of human beings were given to Chi Yiyin through Chi Yan's teachings.

He was bullied by children of the same age, feared and despised by adults who didn't understand him, and Chi Yan would protect him and fight back thousands of times.

But Chi Yan...

When she was young, she had nothing, even a piece of bread that could fill her stomach, and she had to find a way to get it by herself.

Otherwise, you can only starve to death on the streets.

Then one winter morning, he was found dead in a paper shell under the bridge hole.

Although conceptually powerful enough to rival a god, it lacks any guides and protectors.

This made Chi Yan have to stumble alone when he was a child, groping to survive and grow to his current peak.

Her upbringing has shaped who she is today, whether other people love her or get close to her, they are not qualified to judge her.

—Because no one has ever helped Chi Yan, even if it was just a small piece of dry and hard bread.

The gods have always known the calculations of world consciousness.

The whole world was created by Him, nature, all winds and clouds are His eyes, conveying to Him the gratitude and resentment of human beings.

As for Chi Yan, she has a deeper obsession than becoming a new god.

That is to get rid of manipulation, kill the world consciousness, and use the death of the world consciousness to erase her humiliation.

Such a Chi Yan... Even if the world consciousness holds all the benefits in front of her eyes, she will not be moved in the slightest.

On the contrary, she would see it as an opportunity and directly kill the world consciousness that came close without blinking.

What's more, Chi Yiyin was worried about being recruited.

"Don't worry, Yinyin, Chi Yan is a good enough existence."

It was rare for Li Sijun to be so sure of a human being.

He smiled and said: "No matter what you say, Chi Yan can be regarded as a candidate for a god, a human being who is only half a step away from becoming a god."

In the duel twelve years ago, Chi Yan stabbed the footless bird brooch backhand into her own chest without hesitation, using death to get rid of world consciousness, which left a deep impression on Li Sijun.

Although in his opinion, Chi Yan's indifference and rejection of human beings made her regretfully miss the qualification to become a god, but there is no existence that is qualified to deny Chi Yan.

That is the strongest among human beings.

The excellence that far exceeds the limit of human cognition, even needs to be named after "monster".

It is also because of this that when Li Sijun first met Chi Yiyin in Gushu Town, he was attracted by the footless bird brooch on his chest, and saved him with a thought.

Then, met the lovely believer.

In this way, Li Sijun felt that he needed to thank Chi Yan.

If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have noticed Chi Yiyin indirectly, and gained a little believer who loved him deeply.

So in the golden temple deep underground, Li Sijun did not kill Chi Yan.

— But if Chi Yan knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would chase and kill Li Sijun on the spot.

Hearing Li Sijun talk about the past, Chi Yiyin blinked and suddenly realized.

really.

He said that with Chi Yan's ability, she would not be trapped in one place for twelve years.

So... is world awareness.

Chi Yiyin gradually understood why Chi Yan had such an attitude towards the game field and Li Sijun.

However, this also made him relieved and relieved.

Even he is unwilling to stand on the opposite side of Chi Yan.

To be the enemy of monsters, one must first be prepared to die.

Because humiliating defeat is bound to come.

"As long as she doesn't get recruited by World Consciousness, we can relax a lot."

Chi Yiyin blinked at Li Sijun, with a smile on his lips: "Since Chi Yan is not here, I can relax tonight and sleep well."

After the words fell, Li Sijun's eyes dimmed, and those golden brown eyes were as dark as black at this moment.

He raised his slender palms and covered his lips as if trying to hide his uncontrollable emotions.

But the eyes he looked at Chi Yiyin still revealed dangerous heat.

His Adam's apple rolled, but he didn't speak.

Originally, he just wanted to comfort Li Sijun and relax the heavy atmosphere in the world, Chi Yiyin: "?"

Why does he somehow feel... that he said something wrong?

Chi Yiyin tilted her head, frowned and looked at Li Sijun, puzzled.

And Li Sijun: ...Yinyin, it's night...sleeping...

The language made Li Sijun inevitably expand his imagination, and all the charms about the night unfolded in his mind, which also made his gaze towards Chi Yiyin gradually darken.

Chi Yiyin also realized something, he moved his shoulder unnaturally, and then coughed.

"It's time to go back to the box, let's go?"

Several people nodded and stood up.

But before they could move, Chi Yiyin hastily stepped forward with his long legs, blowing like the wind, and disappeared into the restaurant before they could react.

Red Bird: "?"

He was at a loss, until when he turned his head and found that Li Sijun was looking at the direction Chi Yiyin was leaving and smiling, he suddenly realized.

Alright, it should be the fun between the bosses again.

but…

Red Bird looked in the direction of the restaurant exit in puzzlement, and shook his head.

Chi Yiyin, who is usually so calm and rational, is shy when it comes to emotions?

But the conductor who appeared in front of several people soon did not give Red Bird more time to think.

After a few people stood up, other players in the restaurant suddenly looked over secretly.

They stay here not because they are really addicted to food, but because they don't know what will happen next if they make a move.

The cruel test like a meat grinder before has made the players who stay here more vigilant, and they will be alert at the slightest sign of trouble.

Shoot the bird.

Who knows what the rash action caused?

Just wait for some impatient guy to explore the way ahead, so that others will know if they can go.

As for Chi Yiyin and the others, in the eyes of other players, they naturally became "nothing to fear" idiots who couldn't hold their breath.

—Although they were still waiting for the results of Chi Yiyin's group exploration, they were not grateful.

Jingcha, who is sensitive to other people's gaze: "..."

Why do you suddenly have the illusion that everyone is looking at you?

He twisted his shoulders, always feeling uncomfortable.

When the conductor came over, Jingcha still looked nonchalant.

But the conductor didn't go directly in front of them, but stopped at a distance, looking in their direction with apprehension.

Because Chi Yiyin ran away under the watchful eyes of Li Sijun, and forgot to bring the little monster with him in a hurry.

The fallen little monster squatted under the table, looking up at Li Sijun eagerly, as if waiting for the other party to take it to Chi Yiyin.

After the conductor approached, he suddenly discovered the existence of the little monster.

At that moment, Red Bird felt that the conductor wanted to run away.

Red Bird who didn't realize what was going on: "?"

Is the boss so powerful? The conductor looked terrified.

He thought it was because of Li Sijun, he didn't think about the little monster at all.

Li Sijun lowered his head to look at the little monster, he didn't feel disgusted by the little monster's ugly appearance, but bent down, gently wrapped it into his arms, and let it sit in his arms.

When Chi Yiyin was away, Li Sijun took the initiative to become the little monster's scooter.

The conductor was stiff all over, and it seemed that he even wanted to jump off the train.

The train conductor should have guided the players to leave the restaurant, and explained to the players the rules of the train after they survived when they walked to the box car.

But the train conductor with the zero-three code embroidered on the armband was as stiff as a piece of wood when he walked in front of them, and even had the same hands and feet, which changed the robot impression he had left on them.

Red Bird was greatly surprised, and he silently said to Jing Cha: I thought these conductors were all robot NPCs, but I didn't expect them to have autonomous consciousness.

Jingcha nodded: If it's really a robot, it's better, just pass by as a sweeping robot. Now it seems that I have to be more wary of these conductors, tsk.

"Dear passengers, please be aware that the lights in the compartments are turned off at ten o'clock in the evening. During this period, the entire train and all conductors will be rested and cannot be called. Please do not leave the compartments during this period, in case you cannot be in danger. Get help from the conductor in time."

"The recovery time is five o'clock in the morning. At that time, the conductor will appear outside your box on time to check the survival of everyone."

"Please note that the conductor will adjust the time and show up on time at five o'clock."

The conductor was the first to open the door to the box car and made an invitation gesture.

"During the time when the lights are turned off, the private compartment will also be isolated from other compartments, and all compartment doors will be closed. For this period of time, everyone can pretend that other compartments do not exist. If you accidentally slip up..."

He paused, then looked out of the car window: "The soul will be lost too."

Tong Yao shivered, feeling cold all over because of the strange words used by the conductor.

The track of the sea of ​​clouds train is above the sky, which is equivalent to locking everyone here, unable to escape.

If someone falls...from the height of the clouds to the ground, there will only be a puddle of meat sauce left.

Because several people were included in Chi Yiyin's team, even the boxes were in the same train car, one next to the other.

It was the first time for Tong Yao to enter the box car, and because of the novelty in front of him, he slightly overwhelmed the fear in his heart and looked around.

Chi Yiyin's box code is zero three, he has already come back one step ahead, and the box door is ajar.

Hearing the sound, he also came out, holding the door frame and nodding to his companions: "After entering the room, remember to check first."

Before the few people arrived, Chi Yiyin had already walked into the box without the conductor's guidance.

But as soon as he opened the door, he keenly noticed that the layout of the box was a little different from before he left.

The magazines on the coffee table have been moved, the bed has been pressed down and rearranged, and the curvature of the curtains has also changed.

Although they were all subtle changes, Chi Yiyin could tell something was wrong at a glance.

After he left, something came in.

But the box needs a key.

Different from the reality, the key on the train is closer to a "concept", which is equivalent to the owner's rejection of other people's entry.

It cannot be pried open.

Without the consent of the master, no being can enter from the outside, not even the conductor.

Then... it could only be something that was already in the box.

Chi Yiyin instantly thought of the corpse that had appeared in the box before.

People's thinking is inertial, and they always subconsciously feel that there is only one danger, and once it is resolved, it will never come again.

But the playground never pays attention to human self-righteousness.

A corpse that appeared once, of course, can appear a second time, a third time...

Although Chi Yiyin can't know for the time being, how those things were able to return to the box after Li Sijun destroyed most of the underground city.

He quickly opened all the cabinets in the box, including behind the head of the bed and under the bed. He searched all the places where things could be hidden.

Then, he really let him find an eyeball hidden in the center of the flower in the vase.

The eyeballs that had already lost their vitality were dehydrated and shriveled, like a dark plum, a small one that was not eye-catching.

It is placed in the stamen and integrated into one body. With the cover of the petals, it is difficult to find out what is wrong.

But it couldn't escape Chi Yiyin's eyes.

Just after the eyeballs were taken off by Chi Yiyin with a handkerchief, the feeling of being watched disappeared.

"I almost missed it too if I didn't look closely."

As Chi Yiyin said, she raised her eyeballs in the handkerchiefs in her palms, and showed them to several people: "Check every gap in your room, even the places that seem least likely to hide things."

"The train only said that the compartment is safe after the lights are turned off, and no one can push the door of the box. But it didn't say that the inside of the box is safe."

He instructed: "Before going to sleep, you must check carefully, and don't sleep too hard."

Jing Cha waved his hand, casually: "Don't worry, don't worry, I've done this kind of thing many times, I'm more experienced than you."

Chi Yiyin: "So I'm not worried about you."

He was more worried about Hongniao and Tong Yao than Jingcha.

Originally, these two people were engaged in intelligence, and strictly speaking, they belonged to logistics personnel who would not go to the battlefield.

But the rapidly changing world forced them to change their working methods and move from behind the scenes to the front line to participate in dangerous battles.

However, lack of experience and strength is still their pain point.

What's more, Tong Yaocai had witnessed the death of her companion before her own eyes, and she was quite frightened, which made Chi Yiyin very worried about her situation.

"I'll let Yuze accompany you."

Chi Yiyin frowned slightly, and gently persuaded Tong Yao to cheer up: "Yuze is very worried about you, and she wants to stay by your side."

Tong Yao remembered his vision in the blank carriage.

If it wasn't for Ma Yuze...she might really have given up and stayed in that coffin.

She raised her head in a daze, and was about to nod, but was stopped by the conductor next to her.

"Every passenger has a corresponding box key, please stay in your own box."

Conductor: "The code corresponds to the code. The wrong key cannot protect the safety of passengers to the greatest extent, and it will also lose the train's trust in everyone."

The implication is obvious—if you don't play by the rules, the rules will retaliate in reverse.

A conceptual key can naturally only protect the person corresponding to a code.

Red Bird frowned.

Tong Yao also shook his head hesitantly, gratefully rejecting Chi Yiyin's kindness.

"It's okay, since the rules are like this, then come here, don't break the rules because of me."

Because of her negligence and mistakes, two companions have already died, and she doesn't want to see more deaths.

Enough is enough.

If it was because of her that she caused the death of her companion... then it would be better to let her die.

Tong Yao's attitude was firm, so Chi Yiyin had no choice but to give up, and could only tell her to take care of herself, and call other people if she had something to do, and they would be by her side.

"No matter what, I'm also A-level. Mr. Chi doesn't have to worry about me too much."

Tong Yao forced a smile and nodded: "It's only seven hours. When the box opens tomorrow morning, we will still be together. There is nothing to worry about."

Chi Yiyin looked at her back as she turned into the box, still frowning and whispered to Jingcha to pay more attention to Tong Yao.

Although it is A-level, most of the players selected from the game field only enter A-level because they are good at a certain field and specialize in breakthroughs.

For example, Jingcha, who is good at fighting but not so good at thinking, and Red Bird, who is good at handling information but really not used to danger.

The game field doesn't mind if the respondents are serious about the subjects, as long as the scores are high enough, it doesn't matter if they get zero scores in other fields.

But the New World is different.

It obviously requires players to develop in an all-round way—after all, they are candidates for gods. They will protect the entire world in the future, make decisions on behalf of hundreds of millions of lives, and bear their lives and deaths.

Tong Yao is a typical intelligence school, and before she met Chi Yiyin, she had been living for many years, and her acuity might have dropped significantly.

Jing Cha understood what Chi Yiyin meant, but he rolled his eyes and took a negative attitude towards Chi Yiyin's instructions.

"She's not next to me at all, how can I hear it? Besides, this box is conceptual, meaning it's soundproof! The kind that you can't hear even if you fight three hundred rounds next door."

Jingcha pointed to Tong Yao's box, and then indicated to Chi Yiyin the number of her box.

Chi Yiyin's box is Zero Three.

As for Tong Yao, she is zero one, and her box is hers as soon as she enters the door of the carriage.

Zero Two was supposed to be Skye, but he didn't come back.

Zero four is Red Bird, zero five is Beijing Tea, and zero six is ​​Chu Yueli.

In other words, everyone who came back was connected together.

Except Tong Yao.

"With this span, it's hard to hear even in an ordinary room, let alone here."

Jing Cha snorted: "Unless she runs out and shouts, don't count on me."

"Boom!"

A chestnut hit the back of Jingcha's head, causing him to grin his teeth in pain and tears came out.

"Hey!"

He turned his head fiercely with a crying voice, covered his head and looked at Red Bird viciously, but it was completely harmless.

The red bird is like a parent apologizing on behalf of the bear child, and nodded to Chi Yiyin with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Chi, we will pay attention to Tong Yao."

Chi Yiyin nodded, smiled and waved to Red Bird, letting them resolve the "ancestral conflict" by themselves.

Chi Yiyin silently looked at Li Sijun beside him, his eyes were dead: "I wanted to ask before."

"Why don't you have your own box, and share a room with me?"
