Chapter 406: You’re So Good to Me
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Du Yue was worried that Xia Ju would stay up late to play with her phone and miss breakfast the next day, so she pulled her back to her room. “I’ll get you a small electric frying pan and some eggs, bread, sausages, noodles, and so on. Put them all in the fridge. I don’t think you’ll be sleeping tonight. You can settle your breakfast tomorrow. Well have lunch together.”
Seeing Du Yue take out a pile of things from her s.p.a.ce, Xia Ju finally moved her gaze away from the screen and looked at Du Yue. “Du Yue! You’re so good to me!”
Xia Ju sighed. She opened her arms and rushed toward Du Yue, wanting to give her a bear hug.
Before Xia Ju could get close, Du Yue quickly ran to the door and looked at Xia Ju with disdain. “You’d better not touch me, or I’ll cut off your Internet connection! You won’t be able to play then!” Du Yue could not think of any better way to deal with the internet-addicted girl.
Xia Ju sighed and pretended to be hurt. “Alright, then hurry up and leave. Don’t disturb me from playing with my phone!”
Du Yue was speechless.
Du Yue shook her head helplessly and turned to leave Xia Ju’s room.
He Xing stood in the corridor and waited. When he saw Du Yue come out, he reached out and held Du Yue’s hand, walking with her to the second floor. After returning to their room, they changed into their pajamas and lay on the bed. Du Yue also took out her phone and started browsing the forum. Previously, she had only casually glanced at it a few times and did not take a closer look. Now that she finally had free time, she naturally had to study it properly. The community was quite active, and there were several sections.
When Du Yue saw the word ‘underground,’ she frowned and immediately reached out to open it. What exactly was inside this underground section? As the underground forum was opened, the most popular post attracted Du Yue’s attention. [Don’t miss it! There are new goods today. Everyone, come in and see the quality of the new goods!]
The t.i.tle was very eye-catching and made people curious. They wanted to see what new goods there were. Du Yue tapped on it lightly. There was nothing inside, only a website address. After clicking on the website, she paused for a while before the screen of the phone showed intermittent images and sounds. One of the photos showed a young man’s pale face. When she saw the young man’s pale face, Du Yue subconsciously thought of the young man who rented them the rooms before.
However, when she looked at his face carefully, she realized that it was not him. He had the same thin face, pale complexion, and lowered eyebrows. It was really easy to mistake him at a glance. It was obvious that someone had pointed a camera at the young man’s face and shot the video. The screen showed the young man struggling and his painful expression, which made Du Yue frown. He Xing pushed the door open and saw Du Yue holding her phone. Her expression was a little solemn. He quickly went forward and asked, “What are you looking at? Why do you look so pale?”
“You’ll know when you take a look.” He Xing had just approached when the scene changed. The camera gradually zoomed out, and the young man’s pale and colorless face also became farther and farther away. In the video, the young man collapsed on the cold concrete floor. His clothes were soaked in blood, and his breathing was very weak. If it were not for the slight rise and fall of his chest, Du Yue would have thought that he was dead.
Seeing this scene, He Xing’s expression darkened. “What’s going on?”
“There’s a section called ‘underground’ in the base’s forum. I saw this when I opened it. I don’t understand what they’re doing either.”
As soon as Du Yue finished speaking, the camera zoomed out again. As the camera was getting farther and farther away, the two of them could see a bigger picture.
The young man was not the only one present. Not far from the young man, there was a man in black standing there. The man had his back to the camera and was dressed in black. He was wearing a pair of boxing gloves. Du Yue was staring at him when the camera suddenly zoomed in and gave a close-up of the boxing gloves. “This is a new gift that someone gave to Young Master today. These boxing gloves aren’t ordinary boxing gloves. There are sharp steel thorns on them. When the steel thorns. .h.i.t a person’s body, they’ll cut a b.l.o.o.d.y mark on the flesh. The flesh on the body will instantly split open and blood will flow out. The physique of the guy yesterday wasn’t bad. He took more than 20 hits from the young master and was still breathing. But today, for some reason, he didn’t come to the appointment.. This kind of person who doesn’t keep his promise will never have the chance to partic.i.p.ate in the game again!”
