Chapter 127 I can endure the darkness

Chapter 127 I can endure the darkness

In the spacious He's cabin, an LCD TV is hung on the wall.

At this time, there was a car on the TV that was far ahead. Because it was a prop race, it even surpassed the last unlucky guy by one lap.

After the racing car passed the finish line, Leisurely Turtle stood up and jumped on the small racing car and waved his hands, looking very happy.

However, the girl sitting in front of the TV silently pressed the main menu button and closed the game.

Eriyi put down the handle and stretched, her beautiful curves flashing away.

Then she lay directly on her side on the tatami. This room was not equipped with floor heating. Her pretty little face was pressed against the ground, which felt a little cool and soothing.

The girl's eyes moved slightly and she looked at the clock on the wall. The room was so quiet that she could faintly hear the ticking sound of the second hand turning.

Time passed by, and the girl had nothing to do and her thoughts were racing.

Today is already the third day after the operation on Mount Fuji. She received a serum injection after returning, and her physical condition stabilized again, and then she returned to her daily routine.

In the past, girls actually stayed at home, played games, and watched TV dramas, which felt "fulfilling" and had no dissatisfaction.

Occasionally she would run away from home, just to be a little curious about the outside world. Then she would return to her room sensibly and continue to live her life.

But she feels like she's become very strange recently. She's no longer satisfied with staying in her room day after day. Although playing games is fun, she doesn't seem to be that happy when she doesn't have Godzilla to play with.

Her face was pressed to the ground, her clear eyes looking at the rotating second hand, but her mind was thinking about the events of the past few days.

She and Godzilla dueled in the lively game hall, she and Godzilla paraded on the float in Disneyland, she and Godzilla looked at the stars on the sky tree...

Thoughts seemed to be projected into the girl's eyes, and the pupils with a hint of red gradually came to life. They were colorful, trying to tell the beautiful memories of her.

She could have endured the darkness if she had never seen the light.

Eriki no longer wants to stay in this room day after day. She wants to go out to play. She wants to go to Godzilla to play, and she wants to see more places...

"Ding--"

The mobile phone placed on the kotatsu rang. Eriyi quickly stood up and reached out to take the mobile phone from the kotatsu behind her. Her eyes were filled with bright light and she opened them expectantly.

However, the light in the girl's eyes dimmed again the next moment, it was just a push advertising message.

Eriki lay on the ground again, leaning sideways with her face on the tatami, holding the phone in one hand and staring at the screen of the phone in trance.

Godzilla, you clearly said you would come to play with me in a few days, why haven't you come yet?

…………

Lu Chen woke up and was awakened by the noisy sound of weapons clashing.

He stood up vigilantly, subconsciously preparing to attack any threatening creatures around him. However, he turned to look at the source of the sound, and his tense muscles relaxed again.

Although the Sheqi Ba Family prepared a large amount of gaming equipment for him, the original "dojo" module was not removed. There were two people sparring in the open space at this time.

There were sparks when Dictado and Murasame collided. The owners of the two swords were wrestling with each other at this time. Both sides had serious eyes and fine beads of sweat on their foreheads. This duel had obviously been going on for some time.

"What are you two doing?"

Lu Chen wondered, wondering why you would appear in my room? He had closed the door properly.

"Brother Lu, you're awake."

Chu Zihang put away his knife, and Caesar also stopped moving.

"If you don't wake up, we will send you to the hospital in Sheqiba."

Caesar picked up the towel hanging on the shelf and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and asked quickly: "How long have I been asleep!?"

Chu Zihang picked up a bottle of water, threw it to Lu Chen on the bed, and said, "It's been three days."

After the mission on Mount Fuji that day, he and Caesar went back to their rooms to rest. After getting up the next day, they wanted to go over the details of the mission with Brother Lu, and then report to the academy after the other party made a decision.

But they knocked on Brother Lu's door, but there was no response. They were afraid that something would go wrong, so they asked the service staff to borrow a spare room card and opened the door, only to find that Brother Lu was just sleeping soundly.

Chu Zihang checked Brother Lu's body temperature. It was roughly normal and his breathing was stable. He was relieved and thought that he was just too tired and was sleeping hard.

Since Japan was not the territory of the secret party, he and Caesar were not at ease, so they stayed at Brother Lu's place to observe Brother Lu's situation.

This was not the first time that he and Caesar had competed. It was just because staying in the room was too boring and they always had to find something to do.

But it has been three days. No matter how tired Brother Lu is, he still needs to get up to eat and drink water.

"Tons, tons, tons, tons -"

Lu Chen drank a bottle of mineral water in one breath and accurately threw the bottle into the trash can in the distance.

He himself was a little surprised. This was the first time in his life that he had squeezed his potential to the limit. He originally thought that one day's sleep would be enough, but he didn't expect that he would last three days.

During the movement, the quilt slipped from his body, and the sheets were covered with fallen blood scabs. His injuries had basically healed, and new skin had grown on his back, which looked very white and tender compared with other areas.

"Gugu——"

My stomach rumbled unsatisfactorily.

The energy from the food he had eaten before had been exhausted, and he felt hungrier than ever before.

"Hey, there won't be any waste today, it's time to serve the meal."

Caesar called the front desk. He and Chu Zihang asked this place to prepare a lot of delicious food every day, but Lu Chen didn't wake up in the past two days, so it was all wasted.

"Brother Caesar understands me."

Lu Chen gave the other party a thumbs up, "I'm going to take a shower first."

Now he still has a lot of sticky blood scabs on his body, which is very uncomfortable and needs to be washed first.

Ten minutes later, a few people sat at the dining table. Caesar and Chu Zihang watched Lu Chen sweep through the plates of steaks, looking unsurprised.

However, Chu Zihang still asked in confusion: "Brother Lu, what are you worried about?"

For some reason, he felt that Brother Lu had a sad look on his face, as if he was a little uneasy.

Lu Chen just picked up a chicken leg and froze in his movements, feeling a little embarrassed and thinking to himself, Brother Chu, why do you have such good eyesight.

He was indeed a little uneasy, because he had clearly made an appointment with Eriki to play games with her after a short break. After almost recovering from his injury, he went to play with her.

But he slept for three days...

He opened his phone and glanced at it. No more, no less. Eriyi sent a total of three messages, once a day.

Basically, I asked him if he wanted to play games together.

The girl is very good. If she doesn't get a reply, she won't send messages continuously to ask. She only asks once a day, basically at nine o'clock when they play together most.

He now feels an inexplicable sense of guilt. The source of his uneasiness is unclear. He doesn't know why he is a little scared.

He himself didn't know what he was afraid of, which made him very strange.

"I seem to have let go of Eri's dove."

When he couldn't figure it out, he consulted others. They were all brothers who had gone through life and death together. In Lu Chen's opinion, there was nothing difficult to say about this kind of thing.

"So you are worried, afraid that the other party will be angry because of this?"

Chu Zihang grasped the key point immediately, and the doubts he just had were solved.

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly understood. Am I afraid of this?

Why should I be afraid of this?

I shouldn't be afraid of anything now.

But Brother Chu was right. He asked himself in his heart, and the answer was indeed this.

"Brother Lu, you are in love."

Caesar smiled and said. For some reason, Lu Chen felt that the other party's expression was a bit unappealing.

"In love? No, no, no, no."

Lu Chen waved his hands quickly, his mind was a little confused.

Chu Zihang and Caesar looked at each other, then looked at the young man who was shaking his head and waving his hands, thinking that this was probably the worst cover-up.

"Then what do you feel guilty about, and why are you afraid?"

Chu Zihang is always good at touching people's hearts with short words.

As the ace S-level specialist of the secret party, and having just achieved the record of killing the next generation species, you should be fearless and in an extremely expanded state.

But the way you feel guilty now is like a henpeck who lets his wife go.

"I don't care, it's nothing..."

Lu Chen's confidence was inexplicably lacking. He picked up his phone and wanted to reply to Eryi's message, but he didn't know what to reply.

Could Eriyi be really angry?

"Tsk tsk, Brother Lu, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. You are indeed a strong man, but there is a saying that is very good. There should not be any cage in this world that can trap a real man, except for his beloved girl."

Caesar spoke earnestly.

Lu Chen was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Brother Caesar, if you accidentally let go of Nono's dove, would you be worried and scared?"

The smile on Caesar's face froze, and he said firmly: "Nothing."

I don’t know what “no” means.

stare--

At this time, Chu Zihang spoke, "I think Brother Caesar is the one who is being dovetailed."

As soon as I opened my mouth, I was always worried.

As soon as Nono came on vacation, no one could be seen, and Caesar didn't respond when he sent messages to greet her. I have to say that in a sense, Caesar has a really big heart.

The topic was immediately ended.

Lu Chen thought for a while, suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and replied to Eryi with a message.

"I'm going to play with Eri this afternoon."

Ding--

Another instant reply.

"Then I'll wait for Godzilla."

This sentence was followed by a cute.jpg emoticon. It seems that Eri has become more proficient in using lines recently.

…………

It was two o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was shining warmly on people, making them always want to go back to bed and take a nap.

Construction teams can be seen everywhere on the streets of Tokyo. The previous earthquake caused by Mount Fuji's abnormal movement did not have no impact on Tokyo. Although there was no collapse of floors, some cracks can still be seen on the ground of some streets.

Apart from the construction teams repairing public goods on the streets, it is hard to tell that this is a scene after a disaster.

Some high school students who skipped classes wandered the streets, laughing with their friends and entering places like game arcades and karaoke bars to indulge their youth wantonly.

The office workers on the road were carrying briefcases through the streets and alleys, standing straight as if they were going to a battlefield, mentally planning to negotiate a big deal today.

Lu Chen walked on the street and passed by the people around him, feeling a little emotional.

I have to say that Japan is a magical nation that often values ​​work more than anything else. Before coming to Japan, Fingel told himself a case.

It is said that during the last World War, an atomic bomb was dropped in a certain area. An office worker who was on a business trip there was affected, but miraculously survived, and the man actually went back to work in his car the next day!

Lu Chen was also shocked after hearing this. He thought to himself that they are such a terrible nation. They are working people and have a strong working spirit. Even if they eat the atomic bomb, they still put work first.

In contrast, the earthquake a few days ago did not cause any casualties in Tokyo. It is understandable that everyone is living like this in their daily lives.

When he stood in front of the Genji Heavy Industries Building, he suddenly realized that when he first met Eri, he was only one street away from here.

"Mr. Lu."

The automatic door opened and Yuan Zhisheng greeted Lu Chen.

After Minamoto entered the Genji Heavy Industries building, Lu Chen asked with some confusion: "Eriyi is at Genji Heavy Industries?"

He had previously contacted Minamoto and asked where to find Eri and what time would be more suitable. The answer he was told was Genji Heavy Industries.

But this seems to be a place of work. Who will live in the company all the time? Eriki doesn't look like an overtime addict, and she seems to be playing games all day long and doesn't need to work.

Yuan Zhisheng nodded stiffly, "Eri Yi's bloodline is unstable, so she must be in a place with advanced medical equipment so that she can receive treatment at any time."

Lu Chen frowned slightly, "Is it so serious?"

He had previously felt that Eriyi's bloodline was indeed unstable, and that using the word spirit would be corroded by the dragon's blood, but it didn't seem to be to the extent that medical equipment was needed and a team of experts were always at hand.

Yuan Zhisheng sighed and said, "Come with me."

He took Lu Chen into the elevator, then took out a card with eight giant snakes printed on it, swiped it, and then pressed the button for the 14th floor.

However, on the electronic display screen of the elevator, the destination displayed was not 14, but a symbol "ξ" that Lu Chen could not understand.

If Chu Zihang can definitely answer Lu Chen's doubts here, "ξ" is the fourteenth letter of the Greek alphabet, and this character is also often used for random variables in mathematics.

Has an uncertain, illusory meaning.

In other words, this is a hidden floor.

Except for the top authority cards held by Yuan Zhisheng and a few people, no one can open the passage to this floor.

Lu Chen really couldn't understand this symbol, but he was not stupid. The floor that required special permissions meant that it was usually hidden and not open to outsiders. Even many people from the Sheqi Eighth Family might not know this. existence on the first floor.

Lu Chen felt very puzzled. Eriki's bloodline was indeed unstable, but was it necessary for the Sheqi family to hide her so tightly?
