Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 214 Trembling? It can't be me.

Mu Gui lowered his head and dared not respond.

He couldn't afford to offend either Zhou Yuanyang or the nun.

Seeing that Mu Gui remained silent, Zhou Yuanyang didn't say anything more.

He reached out and took the bottle of "Memory Labyrinth" from Mu Gui's hand, then slowly stood up.

"I will transfer the points to the nun."

Zhou Yuanyang smiled and said, "Of course, I will try my best to do what I promised her."

Mu Gui still dared not raise his head, afraid that Zhou Yuanyang would see through his fear, and could only nod repeatedly.

"Alright, get out."

Zhou Yuanyang didn't bother to look at Mu Gui, who was terrified on the ground. He picked up the "Memory Labyrinth" and shook it. The pale purple potion inside the glass bottle emitted an eerie and hazy arc.

“…Bishop Zhou, I, I have, I have this, my neck…”

Mu Gui was in excruciating pain in his neck, but he dared not say anything.

Zhou Yuanyang, who was admiring the medicine, glanced down at the red-legged centipede on Mu Gui's neck and gave a condescending "hmm".

"come back."

The red-legged centipede quickly pulled out its mandibles like a robot receiving a command, and Mu Gui groaned in pain.

The former completely ignored his meaning and rushed directly to Zhou Yuanyang's outstretched hand, affectionately wrapping several loops around the other's wrist.

Mu Gui dared not linger any longer. Knowing that the nun would help him detoxify, he quickly got up and ran towards the gate.

Just as his hand touched the doorknob, Zhou Yuanyang's gentle voice came from behind him.

"You used to be a cleaner, right?"

Mu Gui's back stiffened.

For the first time, he pretended not to hear anything, quickly opened the door and rushed out, not daring to stop and catch his breath until he had run an unknown distance.

Zhou Yuanyang... Zhou Yuanyang also knows?

------

Watching Mu Gui's fleeing figure, Zhou Yuanyang played with the pale purple potion in his hand with great interest and chuckled softly.

The "Cleaner" is currently dominating the leaderboard at number one.

An ordinary player, so ordinary that he couldn't be more ordinary, even timid as a mouse.

These two individuals are surprisingly teammates who can rely on each other and leave their backs to each other.

Who would believe it if I told them?

It just so happens to be something that was true in the past.

“Tsk,” Zhou Yuanyang scoffed, shaking the “Memory Maze” in his hand, and suddenly revealed a sarcastic smile as if he had thought of something.

"Traitors are despicable no matter where they are."

------------

Yu Shijiu woke up late at night.

Beside him lay Fatty, who could no longer resist sleepiness. The latter curled up, taking up almost half of the bed, and making gurgling sounds in his throat.

Yu Shijiu, who had just opened his eyes: "..."

He blinked blankly, feeling a splitting headache and a sharp, aching pain in the back of his neck.

Yes, I dodged, not got hit.

At this moment, Yu Shijiu, who was still awake and had lost some of her memories, stared blankly at the darkened ceiling and began to recall what had happened at the dinner table.

At first, I was happily eating dumplings. Later, I thought the dumplings were so delicious that I ate a lot more than I should have, to the point that Chen Yi, who was sitting across from me, asked in surprise if I was full... And then, it seems that I lost control again and hurt someone.

Thinking about the memories of her mother that she should have gotten used to long ago, Yu Shijiu turned over in a bit of irritation and curled up into a position where she hugged her knees.

Unbeknownst to Yu Shijiu, his body was gradually trembling as he hugged his knees.

so annoying……

I really, really want to be an ordinary, normal person.

Why would he suddenly go crazy?

I didn't see any blood—

No, actually I did see it.

Yu Shijiu closed her eyes slightly, recalling the scene when her consciousness suddenly became confused and she returned to the villa where she was a child, and felt her heart beating faster and faster.

His "madness" stemmed from witnessing his mother's death.

The doctor who came to our home said it was due to mental confusion caused by psychological trauma, including psychological stress.

At that time, Liang Guodong was still somewhat reluctant to part with his only son. Although he disliked him, he still kept him in the villa where people lived.

However, Liang Guodong brought another woman home in the first week after his mother's death.

Yu Shijiu still remembers the woman in the red dress walking up to him and squatting down in her high heels.

She looked very young and had a gentle voice, but when she shook hands with him, her nails dug fiercely into his flesh.

That was the second time Yu Shijiu went mad.

The chaotic memories made Yu Shijiu's eyes redder and redder under the covers. He forced himself to calm down, but his heart was beating even faster.

Boom!

No, he doesn't want to, at least not for the time being, be a madman.

Fatty, and Fatty again... I have Fatty now... Fatty needs an owner with a more stable mental state...

Bang bang bang bang bang——

Click.

The dark room suddenly became bright, and Yu Shijiu closed her eyes tightly. Her heartbeat, which had been pounding in her throat, froze for a few seconds before slowly subsiding.

"Well?"

Xu Han, who was lying on the sofa and felt sore all over, stretched and looked drowsily at Yu Shijiu, who was trembling with her back to him on the bed.

"?"

trembling?!

Xu Han was instantly jolted awake, dashing towards Yu Shijiu and shouting:

"What's wrong? What's wrong?! Are you feeling down again, cough cough cough, are you feeling sad again?"

Xu Han's exaggerated voice interrupted Yu Shijiu's emotions, which were about to descend into madness again. He bit down hard on the soft flesh inside his mouth, enduring the excruciating pain to calm himself down.

"trembling?"

Yu Shijiu slowly got up, swallowed the bloody water that tasted fishy, ​​and shook his head with a smile.

"No? Are you talking about Fatty?"

How could I possibly be trembling? Absolutely impossible.

Xu Han must have misread it.

Yu Shijiu thought.

The chubby guy next to him, who was keeping one eye open and one eye closed from the noise, thought: "...Meow?"

What meow? What trembling meow?

Xu Han suddenly didn't know what to say.

He looked at the smiling boy on the bed and for the first time, he felt that he shouldn't keep asking questions.

Why do you smile when you're clearly sad?

Xu Han didn't understand.

So he coughed, looked away, reached out and tugged at the fur on Fatty's body, then blew on it.

"Haha, yes, yes, it's Fatty's fur, oh no, it's Fatty's fur that was trembling in his sleep just now."

Fatty: "..."

It licked its teeth, and then, half-asleep, bared its teeth and meowed softly at Xu Han several times.

Yu Shijiu pressed her tongue against the wound inside her mouth and rubbed her eyes.

"I'm so sleepy," he mumbled, "you woke me up."

Xu Han: "..."

He scratched his head, turned around, walked back to the sofa, and lay down again.

Before turning off the lights, Xu Han hesitated for a moment, then called out to the two blurry shapes on the bed in the darkness not far away.

Goodnight.

"..."

From the darkness came the boy's soft reply.

"Good night."
