Yi Ran saw that he didn’t reply and said, “Xiao Yan, do you see someone on the roof in the N direction?”
“…” Yu Yan hid in the house to apply some medicine, only managing to squeeze out after a while. “See them.”
[Was it when you asked for leave to go to the classmate reunion? Ahhhhh, 1 and Xiao Yan actually met, I’m swooning! What does Boss 1 look like ah?]
Seeing this line in the barrage, Yu Yan licked his lips and internally said, I also want to know what 1 looks like.
But he had forgotten everything about it. Regarding that night, he only remembered holding the toilet, his face full of embarrassment, and vomiting until everything was murky.
In fact, that matter had been hovering in the back of his mind this whole time, and he hadn’t been able to set it aside. After all, the hotel charged thousands of yuan for one night and not paying it back made him feel uneasy. Yet, even after posting that message on his Moments such a long time ago, he still hasn’t found the person. Later, when he had asked his classmates, all of them had also said that they couldn’t remember clearly.
With Yi Ran saying this, everything seemed to now make sense.
1 had been on a business trip in Manyang and had just so happened to go to the same club as him. He was exposed to the public every day and getting recognized was normal. 1 saw him drunk and so out of compassion, had thought of a way to drag him out of that group of classmates…
Yu Yan found an M24, installed a 2x scope on it, and opened the scope quickly to aim at a corner of the opposite house, directly obtaining a headshot.
So what had 1 said after that night?
He had said that he had returned to Jincheng that night.
And then told him to drink less.
… Then he hadn’t paid much attention to him for a week.
The more Yu Yan thought about it, the more his heart sank, and his hands moved much faster than before. His reflexes were the ones acting for him pretty much every time he saw someone. After firing 30 bullets to knock down two people in a row, he reloaded and looted everything, completely ignoring Yi Ran’s frantic screams.
At this time, No. 1 turned on his mic and asked, “No. 4, do you have something ah?”
Yu Yan lowered his head and looted the box. No. 1 ran towards him quickly. He opened the box and saw that it had nearly been completely looted.
“No. 4, do you have any extra medicine ah, give me some bei.”
Yu Yan didn’t say anything, got on the motorcycle next to him, and rushed away alone.
[Teammate asked for interaction, and the anchor cruelly refuses.]
[What about the three bags on you, you can’t bear to give your teammate one ah?]
Yu Yan was absent-minded as he drove, and didn’t even execute his favorite motorcycle flip move.
“I’ve left him half the city, enough for him to use.” Yu Yan replied.
Yi Ran asked, “Where are you going now ah?”
“Resort.”
“??”
Just after clearing out Bootcamp, without having even cleared out two houses yet, how can he suddenly go to the resort? As far as this route is concerned, those two cliffs were the most bustling places in the map.
But listening to the receding sound of his speeding motorcycle, he didn’t seem to have the slightest inclination of coming back.
So this is the world of experts ah, Yi Ran thought.
Yu Yan did this occasionally when he was playing solo matches. After playing in the most intense area of the map, he would go straight to the next intense area. The times he did this were purely for the livestream, and he never did so in the multiplayer matches, out of consideration for his teammates.
But right now, his mind was a complete mess. He just wanted to distract himself by playing games instead of stuffily searching houses.
When he was nearly at the resort, Yu Yan pursed his lips and asked, “Yi Ran, when did you all return to Jincheng that time?”
“Went back the next morning.” Referring to this, Yi Ran couldn’t help yawning as he continued, “It was so early, and I was so sleepy that if it wasn’t for the fact that I didn’t have any money, I would have booked a room for myself to go and sleep in some more.”
“That night… Are you sure you saw me?”
“Yeah, you were wearing a white T-shirt, and there was a girl sitting next to you…”
As Yi Ran was in the middle of speaking, he thought something was wrong and was shocked. “No, what do you mean ah?”
Yu Yan shook his head. “Nothing, just casually asking.”
At this time, Paradise Resort had nearly been played out, with only a few players in different teams left there.
He drove a motorcycle, and the sound of the engine was loud— like a living target galloping across the prairie.
[My God, what am I guarding this stream all day and night for? It was all for watching this kind of exciting scene I can’t experience myself!!]
[Exciting scene? As soon as the anchor gets off the motorcycle, he will definitely die on the spot within two minutes.]
[The one in front is new. Watch, I think the anchor can live for at least five minutes.]
[Why wasn’t a quiz game opened for this match ah? If it was open, this person who has never eaten chicken could just lie back and collect money.]
Yu Yan straightened his back and clenched his mouse. As soon as he got off the motorcycle, a shot came from the right side. All those bullets hit the ground beside him.
He didn’t hide at all, even raising his AKM to the sky. After ten rounds of firing, he knocked over the enemy lying on the roof. The enemy had no teammates, so he jumped to kill him directly.
He opened the map and looked around. Paradise Resort was at the center of the circle.
He didn’t even think about it before reloading, turning around, and firing at the motorcycle.
Bang—
With that shot, the motorcycle directly blew up.
[???]
[What’s going on here? It worked so hard to bring you here, and you just blow it up like that?]
[Sit down, normal operations, this is called, “worried that the enemy doesn’t know where I am, so I will say hello to them first”]
“Just blew up the motorcycle,” He said, “Saves me from having other people ride it to run away.”
He turned around, crouched, crept along the building next to him, went to the roof, and looted that person’s box. The AKM was replaced with a full M416, and then he lay where the original person had been positioned to look around.
Half a minute passed, no one was there.
Yi Ran said, “It couldn’t be that that was the last person left ba?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Yan heard a faint noise.
Because he couldn’t hear clearly, he wasn’t sure what the noise was. He just knew it was coming from the house under him.
He turned on the mic for nearby surroundings.
“Is there anyone else here?” His tone was flat, as if greeting people. “I’m alone, and if you have more people, you can come out and kill me.”
The barrage screen was immediately covered with question marks and 666.
Soon, someone accepted his request for interaction.
“Really? Bro, it’s just a game, don’t cheat ah.”
“Not cheating,” Yu Yan said, “Really.”
Most stream followers thought that he was deliberately acting to make the stream more dramatic, and only a small number of fans thought something was strange.
[Xiao Yan’s expression is so serious…]
[So happy to win the award that he broke? Think you can kill all 96 people in the whole game?]
[Too savage, if I play a match with you, I would have to whip your corpse 360 times with a grenade.]
The enemy also thought he was weird enough to be interesting, and moved immediately, as soon as they finished talking, with the sound of their footsteps quickly spreading to Yu Yan’s headphones.
Sure enough, there was someone in the room directly beneath him. What he had just heard was probably the sound of the other party changing grenades or tossing things.
Reloading his gun, he jumped directly to the balcony, and shot twice at the person on his right after they peeked their head out.
Yu Yan quickly crouched behind the window. Three seconds after the gunshot fell, he saw the other side’s head exposed from his perspective. He didn’t even apply a first aid kit before sticking his head out and firing at the other person.
[You knocked down Lovepeace81 with an M416]
He didn’t rush to kill the enemy off, and instead hid behind the door and applied a first-aid kit.
A rush of footsteps sounded from downstairs, indicating two people.
He stuck himself behind the door, and let the knocked-down person crawl in front of him.
[Kill the person first ah, you’re not lacking those bullets. Isn’t it exposing yourself?]
Yu Yan turned a deaf ear to the barrage, took out a smoke grenade, pulled its pin, and voiced its countdown at the bottom of his heart.
When Yi Chen entered the stream, he only heard a bang. The heavy smoke that emerged from the explosion of the anchor’s smoke grenade rushed downstairs and caught the enemy off guard.
[You eliminated Rrrros98k with an M416]
[11 kills]
“Fuck me.” In the game, other people’s voices sounded out, and it seemed like the enemy had turned on the open mic. “Bro, how could you trick us ah?”
Yu Yan replenished his health as he replied, “I didn’t trick you, I’m a single person.”
“It’s against the rules for you to play on two teams at once, you know?”
Yu Yan didn’t speak because the system prompt for 1 entering the stream had appeared in the barrage assistant.
“Ge, you’re here!” Yi Ran had been watching the fight for a long time and saw his brother enter the livestream. He quickly scrambled to greet him, “Play the game?”
Yi Chen waited for a bit, but didn’t hear the voice of the little anchor, so he asked, “Is there still room?”
The functioning of the new computer hadn’t been checked yet, so this was the perfect time to try it out.
Yi Ran replied, “Still have room ah.”
Now that someone has answered, Yu Yan had to obediently shut his mouth.
After a while, Yi Chen’s tone was light as he asked, “Is there?”
Yu Yan paused and said in a muffled voice, “…Yes.”
In this match, he ended up laying on top of a certain building. With only one man’s strength, he persistently defended the whole resort until his teammates arrived.
Finally, the three people gathered together, and with the help of the resort being the final circle, successfully ate chicken.
At the end of the match, Yi Ran immediately sent an invitation to his Ge.
“Ge.” When Yi Chen entered the game lobby, he heard his Muggle cousin’s excited voice saying, “Didn’t you say Xiao Yan was coming to Jincheng? I just asked him, but he said he wasn’t coming?”
Yi Chen was stunned and reflexively looked at the game character next to him.
The black woman said nothing, simply going from a position of standing steadily to preparing.
[AHHH THE CP I’M A FAN OF IS GOING TO MEET IN PERSON la. I’m not going to wait for New Year’s but will go out to buy firecrackers right now!!!]
[Person above doesn’t know what happened before? They’ve already met secretly in person shishishi.]
Yi Chen felt that something was wrong, frowned, and asked, “What?”
“Just what you told me at the old residence ah.” Yi Ran said, “And also from last time, I told him that I was also there at Ginza, and he was so shocked he didn’t believe it.”
Yi Chen was silent, deep in thought about how to legally throw Yi Ran into the sea to feed the sharks.
Yi Ran thought this was something to dwell upon with great relish. The earth was so large, yet they all still managed to meet by chance. How serendipitous they were ah.
But why did he feel that besides himself, the other two people had no interest in talking about it?
This eerie silence continued into Manners Plaza.
Ten seconds later, Yi Ran asked, “Er, where are we jumping?”
No response.
—Until the countdown was over, and everyone got on the plane.
A yellow dot appeared on the top of Pochinki.
A cold yellow dot.
Yi Chen cut to the livestream and looked, making sure that the anchor’s microphone was on. The person on the screen was sitting in all seriousness. He couldn’t tell what he was thinking from his expression, his face looked the same as usual.
He had just stopped talking.
Yi Chen had just entered the stream and wasn’t sure what was going on. When parachuting, he thought about it, then controlled the parachute to draw closer to teammate No. 1 with the yellow icon.
The moment he was close to him, the person who had previously always wanted to jump with him suddenly flew sideways to the left——
Two people crossed in the air, then drew far away, once again positioned opposite each other.
If the characters had a visible trajectory, the stream followers would see a capital X.
Yi Chen: “…”
