Infinity: Others play games with krypton gold, I play games with krypton life

The assailant fled the scene.

Ling Rizhao did not chase after her. He turned around and ran to the bathroom quickly, with only one thought in his mind.

Save people!

Nothing can happen to Xiao Qianchuan.

But when he took a look, his steps stopped.

The thick carpet was soaked with moisture and felt unreal and soft when stepped on.

Ling Rizhao stared at the bathtub in the corner of the bathroom for a long time without moving.

He found it hard to believe, or perhaps to accept, that the person whom he had solemnly promised to protect just a few minutes ago was now lying motionless at the bottom of the bathtub with his eyes wide open.

he died!

The water in the bathtub was dyed translucent pink by the blood, and the pale-skinned boy curled up in it, like a larva wrapped in amber. Without the slightest ability to struggle or resist, he just quietly welcomed his own death.

Having seen many bloody and cruel crime scenes and heard too many helpless regrets, Ling Rizhao's increasingly closed emotions and hardened heart began to feel a little painful.

The pain quickly took over all his senses, causing his eyes to turn red, his nose to feel sore, and the useless regret that had always been there also surged into his heart.

He shouldn't have asked that boy to join the group, the game itself was dangerous enough, not to mention they had to go against it.

He shouldn't be so impatient. Perhaps it was because of his sudden intrusion that Xiao Qianchuan was pushed to death at the very start of the game.

He should have been more reckless and rushed into the house to search as soon as he entered the game.

He should have been quicker and more decisive, leaving the perpetrators no way to escape.

He should have told Xiao Qianchuan earlier that he had no ulterior motives in approaching her from the beginning.

Rather, it is an irresistible attraction.

There was no way he could forgive himself.

He let down the young man who trusted him.

Ling Rizhao's legs seemed to be filled with lead. Every step he took created a small puddle on the cashmere carpet, which stretched in a series towards the edge of the bathtub.

Leaning over the edge of the bathtub, his hands trembled, blood flowed down his palms onto the white porcelain. He stared at the person underwater quietly, unable to contain the grief in his heart.

A tear fell on the water, and among the ripples, Ling Rizhao seemed to see the boy underwater blinking.

Ling Rizhao closed his eyes tightly, and the mist that blocked his vision dissipated. He opened his mouth slightly, and his brain nerves, still immersed in deep sadness, did not know how to react for a moment.

He was not mistaken. Not only did the boy blink again, he also smiled at him and showed him two sharp little fangs.

In an instant, the strong emotions in his heart changed from sadness and regret to joy, anger, and finally to absurdity and ridiculousness.

The shock of this change in emotion made Ling Rizhao stand there in a daze. Even when someone splashed water on his face with laughter, he still held up his arms without moving.

"Hahaha! You...what's wrong with you?"

Realizing that his joke seemed to have gone too far, Xiao Qianchuan restrained the smile on his face and gently tugged at the other person's sleeve.

He wanted to apologize, but was shocked to feel blood on his hands.

"Are you injured? Where is the injury? Is it serious? You get up first...ah..."

Xiao Qianchuan was caught off guard by the hug and turned his head away with difficulty breathing. After struggling for a while to no avail, he let the other party tighten his arms little by little, as if to rub him into his bones and blood.

The other person's heart was beating fiercely against his chest, making Xiao Qianchuan feel uneasy.

"Yes...I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I'm glad you're okay."

Hearing the man's slightly hoarse voice, Xiao Qianchuan felt more guilty. He raised his hand and gently patted the man's shoulder, stroking his shoulder blade to his back. He tried to comfort the man with the cat-stroking technique he learned from the owner of the morning tea shop.

It turns out that this method works on humans as well.

Ling Rizhao's shaking arms gradually stabilized and his brain quickly calmed down. He let go of the boy, wiped the water off his face, and carefully checked the boy's body from top to bottom to see if he was injured.

But when he saw this, his expression suddenly became unnatural.

After making sure that the other person only had a slight scratch on his forehead from hitting the bathtub wall and that it was nothing serious, Ling Rizhao quickly looked away and felt that the burning sensation in his ears was no longer so severe.

"What happened just now? Someone wanted to kill you."

Xiao Qianchuan shook his head and sat up straight on the edge of the bathtub.

"I don't know. I was pushed into the water right after I entered the game. I really thought I was going to die. I didn't mean to scare you."

“It was only later that the system kept beeping in my head that I remembered the hidden quest reward I received in the previous world. Ah… Ah-chu!”

A sneeze drew Ling Rizhao's attention back. The wet shirt clung to the boy's body, outlining lines that made him reverie.

Ling Rizhao consciously looked away, quickly grabbed a bath towel and wrapped the person from head to toe, helped the person stand up, and asked as if nothing had happened.

"Divine lungs?"

"Yes, it should be the effect of the divine lung, called 'water breathing'. At that time, I quickly activated the skill and pretended to be dead in the water, and that's how I fooled those two people."

Xiao Qianchuan pulled his head out from the thick bath towel and explained weakly, "Then when you came in, the system just started to announce the mission level and character attributes. I didn't have time to say hello to you."

"What does the system say?"

Ling Rizhao nodded slightly, seeming to easily accept Xiao Qianchuan's explanation for the prank just now.

This made Xiao Qianchuan feel even more guilty. He buried his face in the bath towel and muttered something under his breath.

"sorry."

Looking at the white radish that buried itself in the soil, Ling Rizhao's mouth curled up slightly. He bent down, carried the radish and the soil together out of the bathroom, and planted it on the sofa in the living room.

He turned around and flipped the coat rack, and asked casually: "What did you just say?"

Xiao Qianchuan rubbed his hot face and said, "Nothing... nothing. Ahem! The system told me..."

Then he coughed twice, cleared his throat, and imitated the system's emotionless tone, speaking in a clear and melodious voice.

"Welcome players back to the game of justice."

"Game mission: Help the NPC on the side of justice win and escape from Inset Castle."

"World rank A, complete the mission to receive a 3-day life extension card and 50 points. The first person to clear the mission will receive an additional special reward."

"A-level?"

Ling Rizhao paused and pondered over the word, seeming to be thinking about something.
