On Saturday, at 11 o'clock in the morning, Zhang Chunliang and Chen Yue went out at the enthusiastic invitation of the red-haired boy.

"This video game arcade is awesome!" The red-haired boy grinned excitedly and introduced it to Zhang Chunliang nonstop.

"Wang Hongfang gave me a lot of money. Let's have a good game!" He said proudly, holding up a basket full of game coins.

Zhang Chunliang didn't believe that he would be so kind, but he still listened to his bragging patiently.

"That crossing of Ophira, you must try it, my buddies and I can always break the record!"

Because it was the weekend, there were a lot of people in the arcade, and there were a lot of people surrounding each game facility.

Several people waited in line for a long time before finally waiting for the game "Crossing Ophira" that the red-haired boy strongly recommended.

This is a game in which players fly spaceships to travel between alien monsters in the universe, looking for an escape route.

Red-haired guy inserted a coin and sent Zhang Chunliang and Chen Yue onto the game machine.

As soon as he entered, Zhang Chunliang realized something was wrong——

The scene here is so real, so real that every monster is lifelike. In the void universe, the monsters open their deformed and terrifying blood-red eyes, waiting for the two to enter with expectation and greed.

Zhang Chunliang wanted to quit, but his hands seemed to be stuck on the steering wheel and he couldn't move them away.

The game began. Ugly tentacles covered with mucus rushed towards them impatiently, and the smelly bloody mouths scrambled to devour the two of them.

"Close your eyes, Liangliang." Chen Yue's voice was calm and composed. He hugged Zhang Chunliang from behind and controlled the steering wheel.

The two of them shuttled through bizarre monsters and escaped from the most incredible angles. Sharp claws, shells, and meteorites hit them head-on, but each time the spaceship was able to narrowly avoid them under Chen Yue's control.

It was only a five-minute game, but Zhang Chunliang was sweating profusely and his heart was pounding.

The screen suddenly lit up, and the words "Game Completed" appeared in colorful neon lights. Zhang Chunliang's spasmodic hands finally left the steering wheel.

Chen Yue held his hands in his arms, rubbing and massaging them carefully until his hands no longer hurt.

"A very crude method," he commented.

Zhang Chunliang suddenly realized that this video game arcade was probably a dangerous scene in the copy. Every game was a murder trap. The red-haired boy brought them here just to catch them off guard and kill them through the games.

He stood up and looked around, but where could he see the hateful red-haired figure?

"I'll settle the score with him later." Chen Yue said casually, "Do you still want to play, Liangliang?"

Zhang Chunliang turned his head and looked at the thrilling game interface. He swallowed his saliva involuntarily: "I want to play..."

It was so exciting here that even though he knew the games inside might actually kill people, he couldn't help but play all of them with Chen Yue.

In the container maze, the two men shot the mutated zombies that were attacking them with real guns. Balls of green pus exploded in front of their eyes, and the stench was pungent.

In the mole game, the moles will steal a certain sense of their body. If they don't hit enough moles within the specified time, they will lose this sense forever.

The shooting game involved shooting bloody heads. Every time he started, the severed heads tried to bite Zhang Chunliang's hands, but he would ruthlessly swat them away.

"I want to catch a doll to play with." Zhang Chunliang said to Chen Yue excitedly, "Xiaobei is usually very bored with just one doll. I can catch a doll to be his friend. I'm really good at catching dolls."

The two came to the claw machine area, where there were dozens of various claw machines. Zhang Chunliang found the one with the cutest dolls.

He shook his mechanical claws, trying to grab the most beautiful doll.

Just when the mechanical claw was about to touch the doll, the doll's head suddenly bent 180 degrees, and a cold red light appeared in its beautiful glass eyes.

"Hehe..." The doll chuckled, and its little cotton mouth opened into a mouthful of sharp teeth.

Zhang Chunliang raised his eyebrows and continued to try to catch it, but every time the doll would dodge his claws at a strange angle.

"I can't catch it." Zhang Chunliang was a little frustrated and looked at Chen Yue for help.

Chen Yue thought for a moment and took out Xiaobei, whose body had just been sewn up, from his backpack.

It was completely naked, revealing its cotton body covered with suture scars, and the little black robe with voodoo floral patterns on it had disappeared.

"Its clothes were torn into pieces, so there's no way to wear them anymore," Chen Yue explained, stuffing Xiao Bei into the claw machine through the hole. "We can let it choose which doll it wants."

Zhang Chunliang watched Xiaobei excitedly climb into the claw machine, then struggled to grab a doll with purple eyes and tried hard to lift it up.

The doll with purple eyes began to scream wildly and struggled in Xiaobei's hands.

"What is it doing? Why doesn't it just throw the doll into the hole?" Zhang Chunliang was a little confused.

"Because you haven't caught the doll yet, it wants to make you happy." Chen Yue put a few coins into the claw machine, and then signaled Zhang Chunliang to try again.

Zhang Chunliang smiled, and in order not to disappoint Xiaobei's expectations, he carefully aimed his claws at the purple-eyed doll, and then confidently pawed down.

The moment the claw grabbed the doll, the purple-eyed doll once again dodged with its agile movements.

Xiaobei: "..."

Chen Yue tried to comfort him: "You are already great, Liangliang, it's just that this kid is too cunning."

Zhang Chunliang narrowed his eyes dangerously and attacked again.

The purple-eyed doll screamed and kicked Xiaobei's head hard, then bent its body over and avoided the mechanical claw again.

Xiaobei: "..."

"The claws are too loose. It's normal that they can't grab anything." Chen Yue commented and stuffed a few more game coins in.

"I don't want to play anymore, it's too much." Zhang Chunliang let go of the game controller.

"Hmm." Xiao Bei narrowed his eyes, held the purple doll in front of himself, bit off its neck viciously, and then threw it into the hole where the doll fell.

It aimed at Zhang Chunliang's mechanical claws, put itself in a doll position, and stood there motionless.

Zhang Chunliang: “…”

"Don't let it wait too long." Chen Yue's tone was full of laughter, "It's looking forward to being caught by you."

Zhang Chunliang took a deep breath and pressed the mechanical claw again.

Xiaobei's body was picked up by claws and thrown into the cave.

The claw machine began to flash colorful lights and let out a loud cheer.

"I said Liangliang is the best." Chen Yue picked Xiaobei out of the hole and handed it to Zhang Chunliang, "Your trophy."

Xiaobei snuggled in Zhang Chunliang's arms and rubbed against him obediently.

Zhang Chunliang took a deep breath and kissed Xiaobei hard on the face.

"Hmm..." Xiao Bei shyly covered his face with his little hands, and a slight blush appeared on his pale baby face.

Zhang Chunliang looked at its appearance carefully. He felt that Xiaobei might evolve again. It was becoming more and more like a human.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and was startled by Chen Yue's cold eyes.

He was quietly looking at Xiao Bei in Zhang Chunliang's arms, his fingertips lightly tapping the armrest of the wheelchair, his expression gloomy and cold.

Xiao Bei seemed to feel threatened and tried desperately to get into Zhang Chunliang's collar.

Zhang Chunliang sighed, then walked forward and gave Chen Yue a hard kiss on the cheek.

Chen Yue touched the side of his face and turned his head slightly: "Am I just a bonus to the doll, Liangliang?"

Zhang Chunliang looked at the guy who was getting more and more demanding and kissed him again.

"…You just like…"

"I am only..."

"I am in your heart……"

Every time Chen Yue spoke, Zhang Chunliang would kiss him. Before he could even utter a complete sentence, he was kissed by Zhang Chunliang until he was dizzy and his ears were red.

"Are you satisfied?" Zhang Chunliang asked maliciously.

"Um..." Chen Yue lowered his head, his voice so small as if he had been severely bullied by a bully.

"Wow——" A sarcastic exclamation came from behind the two of them.

Zhang Chunliang was stunned and looked up. Qu Anran was holding a cup of Coke and squatting not far away, applauding the two of them.

He had a rope buckle tied on each wrist, which looked very strange.

"Why are you here?" Zhang Chunliang asked.

"Does it say here that Qu Anran and dogs are not allowed to enter?" He took a sip of Coke and asked quietly.

Zhang Chunliang really couldn't stand the weirdness of Qu Anran's character.

"Is there anything to eat?" Qu Anran asked.

"You have money to buy drinks, but no money to eat?" Zhang Chunliang looked at him with a frown.

"I didn't buy it. I just picked it up from the table over there. Someone didn't finish it." Qu Anran took another sip.

Zhang Chunliang's face looked a little ugly: "Have you been hungry all day?"

He originally thought that Niu Lili would take care of Qu Anran, but now it seems that she is not following this guy.

Qu Anran was like a lonely ghost, with no one living with him.

"Strictly speaking, it's two days. I was tied up in the bungalow yesterday and didn't eat anything." Qu Anran repeated, "Is there anything to eat?"

Zhang Chunliang was about to speak when Chen Yue held his arm and asked, "What do you want to exchange for it?"

Qu Anran looked at them with deep hatred: "What in exchange? Do you know why I ended up in this situation? My other personality was alive and well. I worked part-time on Sundays and could earn enough for a week's living expenses, but now-"

Qu Anran raised his two paws and motioned them to look at the knot on his hands: "I'm actually tied up! Another personality! No! Come! I can't make money! Not only will I not be able to eat today, I may even starve to death!"

Zhang Chunliang also fell silent. He never expected that the reason why Qu Anran's personality did not change was because of the knot on his hand.

This is strange.

"We don't have any money either," said Chen Yue.

"It's a lie." Qu Anran looked at the game coins in their hands eagerly, "You bought so many coins without any money."

"My younger brother gave it to me." Zhang Chunliang explained, "But he ran away just now. Have you seen him? He has dyed red hair and freckles on his face——"

"That's your brother." Qu Anran propped up his chin in boredom. "Of course I recognize him. He's my junior high school classmate Zhang Chen. He beat me up a lot before I transferred to this school."

Zhang Chunliang then stopped talking again.

"I have no money for food, so can you treat me to two games?" Qu Anran said persistently, "The security guard over there kept staring at me, as if I were a thief who couldn't afford to play games."

"Of course." Chen Yue handed him the basket of coins.

So Qu Anran jumped up excitedly, holding the basket and crawling around the video game arcade like a dog wagging its tail.

"He doesn't look like he has been hungry for two days." Zhang Chunliang pushed Chen Yue and strolled behind Qu Anyan.

"If he said he was hungry for two days, then he must have been hungry for two days." Chen Yue seemed to know him very well, "This personality never lies."

"Why does that knot trap his main personality?" Zhang Chunliang was puzzled.

"Qu Anran is a very curious guy, Liangliang. Your knot gave him a sense of novelty, so he tried to create a better knot, but he couldn't untie it himself." Chen Yue said, "Before he finds the solution to this knot, this personality will not find the world boring, and he will continue to be active."

Zhang Chunliang caught a word in Chen Yue’s words - "boring". Could it be that when this personality feels that the world is boring, he will disappear and release another dangerous personality?

Qu Anran is very smart and has an unparalleled talent in playing games. In just one hour, he completed all the games he could play.

"Except for not being able to catch the doll, I broke all the records. I'm simply a genius." Qu Anran was very proud and returned the pile of game coins he had just earned from playing the game to the front desk.

Zhang Chunliang looked at the row of claw machines again. It was indeed very strange. They had been here for so long, but not a single person playing the game could grab a doll from the claw machine.

Suddenly, the system prompt came late.

[Congratulations to player Zhang Chunliang for obtaining the item "The doll that can never be caught".

This item gives the player a chance to escape from a fatal situation.

Use times (0/1)

"!" Zhang Chunliang stared at the doll with half of its head broken off in his hand with a shocked expression.

He never imagined that this guy was actually a life-saving prop that was like a BUG.

Before he could recover from the shock, Qu Anran came running back with a bunch of meal coupons.

"The front desk said that game coins cannot be exchanged for money, but they can be exchanged for food coupons in this mall. I exchanged a lot! Enough for me to eat for several weeks." He looked a little proud, waved his hand, and said heroically, "Let's go, it's my treat!"

The three of them ordered the cheapest braised pork rice set meal, found a secluded corner, and sat down to chat.

"Why do you know so much about these games?" Zhang Chunliang started the conversation. "It doesn't look like you've never played them before."

"Whenever I had a quarrel with my parents, I would come here to play games." Qu Anran wolfed down a few mouthfuls of food before answering, "I set several records in the game hall at that time."

Zhang Chunliang looked at Qu Anran, a very handsome boy with unparalleled talent for games, as well as strong learning ability and creativity. He should be the most dazzling boy in the school. If he hadn't said it himself, Zhang Chunliang would have found it hard to believe that he was actually... a victim of long-term bullying.

He really wanted to ask the reason, but he never did.

"Are you full?" Qu Anran watched Zhang Chunliang put down his chopsticks and pulled his food in front of her in a familiar manner.

Chen Yue blocked his hand with chopsticks.

"That's very rude of you."

Qu Anran looked at him sincerely: "Brother Yue, you will have many opportunities to eat his leftovers in your life, but I may only have this one time. Please, I really need this half bowl of rice."

Zhang Chunliang almost laughed out loud. He pulled Chen Yue's hand back, allowing Qu Anran to have another half bowl of rice as she wished.

"Do you have any activities this afternoon? Can I join you?" Qu Anran looked at Zhang Chunliang eagerly.

He's a smart guy and knows who the real decision makers are.

Zhang Chunliang thought for a moment, and then invited: "Let's go shopping in the afternoon and then go home. Do you want to stay at my house for a night?"

Qu Anran had obviously not been invited, and he was a little flattered: "I, can I? Then would you mind if I beat your brother? I'm afraid I won't be able to help but beat him to death."

"Of course." Zhang Chunliang smiled, "After all, I will beat him to death when I return."
