Dawn of a New Era Chapter 24: : White Lies
Chen Shouyi only felt that his hair was standing upright. He didn't dare to stay here anymore and decided to leave immediately.
Before left, he untied the rope, took the shell and picked up the shell girl, and walked quickly out of the passage.
It would be a pity to leave the seashell girl here, in case she dies or escapes.
After a while, he left the unfinished building.
Looking at the crowds, traffic, and noisy streets, Chen Shouyi breathed a sigh of relief.
Compared to the strange and unpredictable world, the earth can make him feel safer. There are not so many mysterious and weird creatures, and there are no ghosts and ghosts. Everything makes him feel at ease.
At this time, he looked at the shell in his hand and found that the magical multi-colored enlightenment originally exuding was completely dimmed at this time, the gorgeous color gradually faded, and the surface became mottled.
Chen Shouyi was stunned, suddenly in his heart.
No wonder this shell is so beautiful, and it's no wonder that the shell girl chooses this shell to live on. It turns out that this shell is not ordinary.
Unfortunately, after arriving on the earth, its extraordinaryness faded away and became ordinary.
But he has nothing to regret in his heart.
From beginning to end, he didn't know what the shell was for?
He thought of the shell girl inside, and gently opened the shell.
Fortunately, she was still alive, she just shrank inside, her face was full of horror, and her body was shaking constantly. She was obviously frightened by the changes in the environment.
Seeing that she was not dead, Chen Shouyi was relieved.
passing by a jewelry store, he suddenly felt his heart and walked in.
Today, on the first day of National Day, there are a lot of people in the store. Most of these stores are girls, and of course there are men accompanying their girlfriends, but there are very few people who come in alone like Chen Shouyi.
He walked slowly, and soon he chose a roll of tape, a roll of nylon rope, a pair of small scissors, and found a few small-size Barbie clothes. Unfortunately, he couldn’t find the underwear and underwear. Can only be there.
When paying, the cashier looked at five or six sets of Barbie doll clothes and couldn't help but glance at him.
Half a minute later, Chen Shouyi walked out of the jewelry store blankly and went to the supermarket to buy a bottle of honey.
Earlier, he noticed that this seashell girl seemed to feed on nectar. It is estimated that honey would be fine. With her appetite, she should be able to feed her well.
……
After leaving the supermarket, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon. The sun was still hot, and Chen Shouyi suddenly felt that there was nowhere to go.
Looking at the still white and tender skin, the exposure to the sun in another world for nearly half a day did not seem to have much effect. The 13.5 physique made him almost immune to the damage of ultraviolet rays.
He turned on the phone, chatting with Zhang Xiaoyue, and wandering aimlessly, until it was almost night, he decided to go home.
"Mom, I'm back." After Chen Shouyi finished speaking, taking advantage of Chen's mother not paying attention, he walked upstairs quickly.
At this time, it was the busiest time of the restaurant. Mother Chen, who was moving the food, only felt the silhouette flash, and ran up the stairs. She chased her back and cursed, "You are not eating?" /
"At a classmate's house, I ate." He stopped suddenly, thought of an idea, and decided to tell a white lie.
There is no light on the stairs. Darkness is his best cover. He turned around with confidence, "Oh, by the way, my current martial arts apprentice’s physical fitness test has reached the standard, but swordsmanship and arrow skills are not good enough. Some."
"Really, son, you have passed your physical fitness." After hearing this, Chen's mother was overjoyed. She had always worried that this mediocre son would do nothing in the future, but she didn't expect to give her a gift after she was promoted to high school. Great surprise.
"Mom, haven't you seen that I have become much stronger recently? So I plan to suspend school.
In the past few days, I have learned that there is a tuition agency that conducts closed pre-examination training. I heard that the success rate is very high, so I want to sign up. "
"Since it is useful, of course you have to report it. How much does it cost?" She saves a lot of money in some places, but as long as it is useful for her children's performance, it is always surprisingly generous.
"It takes about 18 thousand, fifteen days." Chen Shouyi hesitated and said a number. There are many pre-test trainings of this kind. The price is already the current price, and it is easy to expose if it is too low.
"Just need to live outside!" Finally he pretended to hesitate.
"People of this age are afraid of living outside, when will they sign up?" Mother Chen was in a good mood and scolded with a smile.
"Tomorrow morning."
"In such a hurry, fortunately, there is still money in the card. When I am done, I will call you the money!"
In the darkness, Chen Shouyi looked at his mother with a smile on his face and a relieved look. Suddenly, his eyes were sore and he wanted to cry.
In my memory, there has never been a thing that can make parents feel relieved, and some are just disappointments again and again.
"But never again, you will be proud of your son." He wiped his eyes, turned back to the bedroom, and locked the door.
……
He sat at his desk for a while, his emotions flying.
Suddenly he remembered something, and quickly took out the shells from the plastic bag.
The Shell Girl lay in it, motionless, her eyes red, swollen and hollow, without the slightest expression.
Her mouth was sealed with tape, and her hands and feet were tied together.
Chen Shouyi gave a dry laugh, and after thinking about it, he fished her out of the shell. He picked up a pair of scissors and cut the nylon rope tied to her hands and feet in her numb eyes.
then tore the tape on his mouth again.
He picked up the Barbie doll clothes he had bought earlier, and decided to put it on for her.
Being naked is too awkward to see. Whenever it makes him very embarrassed, it is better to put on clothes naturally.
He carefully squeezed her arm and put a coat on her, for fear of squeezing her off.
In fact, he doesn't need to be so careful at all. She is more skinny than he thought. After all, she is a creature under three times the gravity, but not as fragile as the surface.
While putting on the clothes, the Shellgirl remained motionless, letting him be at his mercy, seemingly heartbroken.
Ever since she felt the changes in her surroundings and found that she had lost all abilities and could no longer fly~IndoMTL.com~, she had been completely desperate and numb.
After finally putting on her a princess dress, Chen Shouyi couldn't help but wiped off the sweat and let out a breath.
"Oh, yes, there is honey."
He quickly took out the honey from the bag, took the metal spoon, scooped a small spoonful, mixed with some warm water, and put it in front of her.
This spoon is longer than her height, and the spoon is three times bigger than her head.
The shell girl's nose moved a little, then she turned her face away and remained motionless.
Seeing her non-violent and uncooperative, Chen Shouyi couldn't help but fiddled a few times with her fingers. She rolled her body around on the desk, but the shell girl was silent.
Chen Shouyi finally gave up and left her alone. Anyway, he should not die after starving for a day.
He took the wooden sword from under the bed and continued to practice the sword.
just did a straight lunge.
The wooden sword pierced the air and let out a sharp howl, and he stopped quickly.
After a while, the door snapped.
"What's the matter?" Chen Shouyi said solemnly against the door.
"Brother, you are back, what was the sound in your room just now?"
"It's nothing, it's coming from outside, I don't know anything."
"Oh, I was shocked!"
sister left soon, Chen Shouyi breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the sword and then at his own hand. When practicing in another world, he had no clear idea of how strong he was. Only then did he realize that he had reached this point.
The sword just now should be close to the speed of sound.
He suddenly found out that he was so wise to go out for a while with an excuse. If he continues to live here, let alone other things, it would be a little troublesome to even practice swordsmanship.
