"Cheng Mo, why are you in a daze?" The classmate suddenly patted Cheng Mo's shoulder from behind.

Cheng Mo came back to his senses - the afterglow of the setting sun reflected the surrounding teaching buildings in orange red, and the accumulated clouds filled the sky near the boundary between heaven and earth.Students leaving school in twos and twos walked past him talking and laughing, and everything indicated that it would be a peaceful summer evening.

It's been a week since he came back to reality from that bizarre game.

"No, it's okay." He shook his head, smiled at his friend, and signaled that there was no need to worry too much.

A group of girls who looked like high school students walked beside them, and the voices of small and medium conversations drifted into Cheng Mo's ears along with the wind: "Hey, she, such a beautiful female star, why did she suddenly say she's retiring? .”

"Gossip, it's not true." One of the girls looked around and said in a low voice, "It is said that her face was ruined somehow."

A few companions beside him sighed clearly, with a tone of suppressed gloating and hypocritical pity: "Let's just say, I won't be too young next year, so how can I always look so good-looking and not look old? It really fell apart."

"It's said that it's not broken." The well-informed person lowered his voice, "It seems that his hair suddenly turned gray overnight. No one knows what happened. It's strange."

"How is it possible, how can there be such a thing." The companion laughed and joked, and the group laughed and laughed. From female stars to how to maintain skin care and then to beauty brands of all sizes, this topic was quickly left behind.

"Hey, these high school girls don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement." The friend pouted, a little bit unable to stand the gossip and trivial chat of the girls just now, "It's better to care about these stars if you have time to leave us The latest economic event."

Recently, there have been a lot of news, and even Cheng Mo, who has never been very interested in these things, has heard about them.One was discussed by the girls just now. A well-known movie actress who has always been a frequent visitor to major film festivals suddenly announced her retirement. In the photos circulating in the market, her beautiful face was covered with wrinkles overnight, as if she had been sucked dry by some ghost. The second is what my friends lamented. Once the CEO of a business giant that occupies a place in most of the country's pillar industries goes bankrupt, the economic shock caused by it will affect all industries related to it. Countless manufacturers have laid off employees drastically. Brother was one of them, no wonder he was aggrieved by it.

It is said that the family of the founder of the business empire was ruined because of this, his wife who had just left left him, and the hard-won precious son was found to have another father.

Is it a coincidence?Cheng Mo thought to himself, all this happened after the end of the previous dungeon, and the experience of this actress and business tycoon was exactly the same as that of Zou Qingqing and Wei Guoqiang.

"By the way, did you know that someone died in our school yesterday." My friend remembered something, and suddenly changed the topic and mentioned something about their school. I jumped down, the eighth floor, and I was dead when I landed, and the ambulance didn't even have time to call."

"Huh? Is there such a thing?" Cheng Mo was a little surprised. He lived off-campus, and he didn't know as much about the big and small things in the school as his friends.

"Yes, it's so mysterious." My friend shook his head and sighed, "There is a boy in our college who likes this girl, the one who got into a vegetative state in a car accident a month ago. Hey, I didn't expect that one person would disappear in such a short time , one may not be able to wake up for most of his life, God's will tricks people."

"That girl is usually very hot-tempered. She seems to have a bad temper. She has a lot of good friends. After the accident, many friends sent articles to mourn..." The friend suddenly stopped talking after seeing something.

Cheng Mo followed his friend's gaze, and a girl with short hair cut to the ears hurried past them, wondering if she heard their conversation, her face was as pale as paper.

After the girl walked away, the friend whispered: "This girl is a good friend of that girl, and also her roommate. Some people say that this girl likes the boy who has become a vegetable, and that girl's death cannot be separated from her."

Cheng Mo frowned. The girl had long since disappeared, but the thin figure of her back still lingered in his mind. The girl's pale and delicate face finally overlapped with Sissy's timid little face.

Not quite a coincidence, he thought to himself.The actress who retired suddenly, the business tycoon who once went bankrupt, and the college girl who died unexpectedly, all these things happened in his real life within a week after he left the dungeon.

After saying goodbye to his friends, Cheng Mo went back to his residence off-campus alone.Because his parents have been studying abroad for a long time, he got used to living alone very early.Getting along with classmates can't be said to be indifferent, even in the evaluation of others, he is an exceptionally easy-going person, but the sense of distance between himself and the people around him is real, which is why Cheng Mo rented a house alone a reason.

It's not that he doesn't want to communicate with others, but that there are too few friends who can really talk to him, and the communication with most of his classmates is kept at a shallow level. Such a safe distance makes him feel at ease.

Rather than saying that Cheng Mo is an easy-going person, it is better to say that he is very alienated from other people.

Polite, yet distant.

Cheng Mo put on his slippers, put his backpack away, took a short shower and turned on the air conditioner in the room.The moment the cool wind blew out from the air outlet, it brought a refreshing sense of comfort, which made his drowsy mind a little clearer.He lay down on his neatly folded bed, closed his eyes and started the homework he had to do every day for this week.

Play back those details in the game carefully.

again.again.again.

Cheng Mo can be sure that he entered that game by accident.The most direct evidence is that everyone else mentioned that they had mortgaged something of themselves before entering the game, but he did not.He entered this game under a very unexpected situation, without warning.On that night when he was supposed to fall asleep, he appeared in the copy of the game.

His feelings for Qin Chuhe also made him extremely confused.

Cheng Mo was sure that he had never seen this person before.A person with a special temperament like Qin Chuhe would never forget it once he met him. However, he searched all his memories carefully, but he didn't find any shadow similar to Qin Chuhe.

His excellent memory has been shown since he was a child, and later became the secret of his way to lead the way. This is what he is most proud of since he was a child.

It is precisely because of this that the vague sense of familiarity when he was with Qin Chuhe made him sleepless.

Have you really seen this person?Or is this just an illusion created by his dependence in that high-pressure environment?

The answer to everything seems to be known only when we meet again.

Cheng Mo sighed, feeling a little headache.

Although Qin Chuhe nodded to ensure that they would have a chance to meet again, the fact was that he hadn't entered that game for a week.The way of entering and exiting the game was too sudden. It wasn't until he found himself back in the real world that he realized that he didn't know how to open another copy at all.

I didn't have time to ask for his contact information or anything.Otherwise, you can ask him.Cheng Mo turned over and thought to himself.

After reviewing the day's homework in his mind, the consistent biological clock made sleepiness come on time. He set an alarm to get up early the next day, looked at the summer sky with shining stars outside the window, and gradually fell asleep.

<<

A familiar melody from afar rang in my ears.That wasn't my alarm.

Cheng Mo opened his eyes.

The clear summer night is gone, and the sky is covered with dark gray and light gray clouds.A group of gray and white pigeons huffed and flew up to the tower bridge in front of them, and the turbid lake water rippled and folded.

The cold wind howled, and the dome began to drizzle.

The music continued, and it was a big clock towering in the distance.The clock is square on all sides, the sand-colored walls are complex and delicate, the pure white dial is covered with split patterns, and it has a typical Gothic spire. The bells spread from here to all sides.

Westminster Bells[Note 1].Cheng Mo finally remembered the name of the familiar melody he heard just now.

He looked up at the rainy sky, the turbid river that divided the city in two, and the Tower Bridge across the two banks, and his heart gradually became clear.

Big Ben.Thames.Tower Bridge.

This is London.

[Dungeon No.2738 loaded]

[Please go to the marked location to gather after the game starts]

[Please note that all players can proceed to the next step]

What flashed above the dome was a paragraph of text that was very similar to the first time I entered the dungeon, the difference was that there were two more lines of explanation this time.After a few seconds of countdown, the words [GAMESTARTS] appeared in the center of the dome. Along with it, there was also a huge red pointing arrow, which seemed to mark the location of the initial location.

Fortunately, this place is on the other side of the Thames River, not far from Cheng Mo.He crossed the Thames River via Tower Bridge in the drizzle, and saw a familiar shadow before reaching his destination.

"Qin Chuhe!" Almost reflexively, Cheng Mo blurted out the name that he had thought about countless times.He was inexplicably nervous by his sudden heartbeat, but fortunately the shadow stopped in response.The black-clothed figure turned around - thin lips, familiar eyebrows and eyes.The continuous drizzle weakened the excessively sharp lines, and Qin Chuhe showed him a shallow smile.

"Long time no see." Qin Chuhe said, his eyes fixed on him through the rain, as if he had been waiting for an old friend for a long time.

The author has something to say: 【Note 1】It is also called the Cambridge Bell.It is the music used to tell the time by the Big Ben of the Palace of Westminster in London, England, and it is also a kind of time-telling music that is popular internationally. It originally originated from the Great St. Mary's Church in Cambridge.

The name of the second dungeon involves spoilers, and the name of the volume will be revealed after the next chapter is updated.Chirp.
