my dream adventure

Chapter 12 The Chased Girl ([-])
"I had another weird dream..."

Lin Yuan went into the toilet with his head supported, splashed some cold water to wake himself up.

His head was getting more and more painful. He lay in front of the half-length mirror and looked at his prematurely aging bags under his eyes, as well as the thick round of dark circles. His complexion was pale, and his face was thin, revealing an unhealthy temperament.

"Why do I feel that this game is so tiring? Can you arrange an action-adventure dungeon next time, instead of this kind of puzzle-solving... Really..." He thumped the white wall while Helplessly broken thoughts.

The more he got into the truth of this dungeon, the more Lin Yuan felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, maybe it was really like what the law of dreams said.

"Dreams are both fantasy and reality."

This has never been just a game. When the player enters this world, subtly, he begins to assume a certain role.

If you simply want to pass the level, you don't have to spend so much effort to sort out the complicated details like him!
Maybe you will ask, the higher the degree of dungeon exploration, the more experience points you will get?

It is true, but in Lin Yuan's eyes, it is only a side benefit. He is used to being sincere to the people around him, even in the game, he will not violate his own principles of life and work.

Knowing that his younger sister, fat boy, mother, and even countless passers-by are all fictional NPCs created by the system, he still treats them according to the attitude in reality. Even if he doesn't get any benefits, you can still say that he is wasting time.

But this is the reason why Lin Yuan is Lin Yuan, and it is also his wonderful excellence.

At this time outside, the younger sister slammed on the door of the toilet, clutching her stomach, and shouted: "Brother, are you okay! I have something to do, so let me go!"

"Understood!" Lin Yuan responded, wiped his face with a towel, and left the toilet.

The sequelae of staying up late have not dissipated for a long time. In this state, let alone reviewing homework, he can fall asleep standing up.

His physique is indeed not ordinary. Looking back at the school days, he could run for more than five minutes in the 1000-meter run, and he was always the tail of the crane in physical education class. He was often laughed at because of this incident.

Although Fat Boy is fat, he is a strength player, and his physical fitness is many times better than him.

It seems that after this dungeon is over, he will have to spend time exercising, otherwise let alone the boss battle, he probably won't be able to deal with even a vicious dog by then.

Always prepare for the worst in order to prepare for the worst.

While yawning and returning to the computer desk, Lin Yuan wanted to search the Internet for information related to the school's disappearance case.

It is impossible for the media not to report such a bizarre incident. Even if the information had not been leaked out, the personnel in the school, including the students of those classes, would more or less know about it.

No matter how bad it was, he could ask Zhang Liang. Three years ago, he was still in the third year of junior high school. He probably didn't know much about what happened in the second grade, but he didn't have much choice at this time.

There are still a few doubts that have not been resolved:

[-]. What happened to the supernatural event on the night of the winter solstice?

[-]. The truth about the missing student case;
[-]. Is there any danger around Xiaoyu such as ghosts?

[-]. Where is Xiao Yu himself now?

After being injured and hospitalized three years ago, did she go back to school to continue studying, recuperate at home, or transfer directly to another school? If the normal process is followed, she should be in the first year of high school now, right?

According to the prompt of the main task, Lin Yuan must find a way to find Xiao Yu, and he has a premonition that after seeing Xiao Yu himself, the above questions can be answered.

After browsing the Internet for a long time, the information retrieved is nothing more than a few types.

Curious entertainment reports, missing person notices spread on the Internet by the parents of the involved parties, and conspiracy theories speculated by netizens about the school's various shady scenes...

During this process, he accidentally clicked on a school forum post and found some interesting news.

"It seems that he is also a habitual offender..." Lin Yuan shook his head.

For some of the victimized students, their disappearance was a real joy.

After all, in real life, villains often occupy more resources and have a higher social status, while honest people live their lives in peace and stability, receiving thousands of dollars in wages and decades of mortgages.

It would be a lie to say that there is no hatred at all. I am looking forward to the day when the boss who bullied me will die, and the company will promote you as the new leader.

Think about it, is it flattering?

At that time, your mortgage will be repaid, your wife will be able to marry, and your father-in-law will still treat you as a person. How wonderful.

However, the dragon slaying warrior will eventually become a dragon, which is also an unwritten rule for thousands of years.

Violence comes from violence, and darkness breeds from darkness. Using violence to control violence will not lead to good results. This is of course Lin Yuan's personal opinion.

But if Xiao Yu really did something to those missing students, it also meant that she could no longer look at it from the eyes of a normal person.

……

Lin Yuan went downstairs to prepare lunch. He picked two sweet potatoes and two corns from the warehouse and steamed them in a pressure cooker, which was enough for the siblings to fill their stomachs.

Just as he was opening the refrigerator to grab a few scallions and cook a bowl of clear soup, the cabinet was full of things stuffed in big and small bags, which caught his attention.

"What are these?" He remembered that there was nothing in the refrigerator yesterday, and why it was full overnight.

Unpacking layers of packaging, there are some expensive dishes such as beef, pork, eel, and seafood. Where did so many good ingredients come from?

"Hey, Xiao Man, are you going to rob Auntie Market?"

My younger sister is curled up on a chair in the living room, reading manga magazines.

Hearing Lin Yuan's yelling, she replied, "What did you say? Oh, the things in the refrigerator, right? They were given by brother Jianguo last night. They bought a lot of ingredients for hot pot. They said they were afraid they couldn't finish them. Sent some here!"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it..." Lin Yuan smiled awkwardly. It's not because I'm afraid that I won't be able to finish it. It was clearly sent on purpose, and my silly sister actually believed it.

However, so many ingredients will not be consumed in a short time, so they still have to be frozen in the freezer.

Take a piece of beef, slice it against the grain on a chopping board, put it in boiling water for 2 minutes, and the soup will be ready soon.

Simple tea and light meals are the norm for ordinary people. There are not too many fancy dishes, and the food can be eaten after being cooked. Sometimes clear noodles with clear soup and a handful of garlic can be enjoyed for an afternoon.

Happiness is actually very simple, Lin Yuan is a person who is willing to enjoy mediocrity.

Wearing a T-shirt worth a few dollars, mingling among the bustling crowd, not ostentatious, not conspicuous, neither good nor evil, just ordinary people who work hard for a living and want to earn a living.

We are all a mediocre majority, no one is better than anyone else, and naturally there is no need to compare or oppress.

Instead of focusing on those things, why not think about what to have for dinner?
