Chapter 28
After taking a shower, Yuan Yitong remembered that he had no clothes, so he had to open the door a crack and ask Mu He to borrow some.
Mu He found some clean clothes for him and said, "Don't even think about it."
Yuan Yitong: "I didn't ask you for it in the first place."
Mu He stuffed Yuan Yitong's changed clothes into the washing machine. When he returned to the hall, he saw Yuan Yitong sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, watching TV.
The wound on the base of his left hand has been treated.
Her long hair was simply wiped without being blown, and it hung wetly behind her, wetting a large area of her clothes.
Mu He snorted, not bothering to care about him, and sat down next to him: "I really don't know what's wrong with you. It's raining and you can't go out for a walk. Isn't it better to stay at home? Why do you have to squeeze into my house?"
"Going out for a walk is secondary. I just miss you so much since I last saw you." Yuan Yitong glanced at the snacks on the coffee table, picked them up and glanced at Mu He, "Can I eat them?"
"what ever."
"Forget it. Eat less snacks and stay healthy." Yuan Yitong said as he put the snacks back to their original place without even blinking.
Mu He looked at him silently for a while, thinking of the scar on his back. He hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "How did you get that scar?"
"I was stabbed twice." Yuan Yitong answered lightly, "It's okay. It happened before I went to college. Can you see I'm living a good life now?"
Two knives?!
Mu He lowered his gaze, trying to confirm the location of another scar on Yuan Yitong's body through his clothes.

Noticing his gaze, Yuan Yitong moved aside cautiously: "Hey, hey, hey, what do you want to do?"
Mu He withdrew his gaze and decided to ask directly: "I only saw one on your back, where is the other one?"
Yuan Yitong: "If it's not behind, then of course it's in front, you stupid fool!"
Mu He: "That's not necessarily true, maybe it's on your ass, you idiot!"
"Come, come, let me show you. I'll show you." Yuan Yitong said as he pulled up his clothes and showed the wound on his front, which was actually on his abdomen.
Mu He couldn't help but "tsk tsk" twice: "Who did you offend? Is this person going to castrate you?"
"Who knows? It was stabbed by someone I don't know." When Yuan Yitong talked about this, he always spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if he didn't care at all.
Mu He wasn't sure if he really didn't care or was just pretending, but he didn't really care either.
Yuan Yitong is right, why think so much?
He is still alive and well now, and that's enough.
A TV series from an unknown era was playing on the TV. Mu He was not interested in watching it. After a while, he brought up the topic again: "You don't do live broadcasts anymore?"
Yuan Yitong said "hmm".
Mu He: "What about the contract?"
Yuan Yitong: "The contract has been terminated."
"Huh?" This was beyond Mu He's expectations. "You were live streaming so well, how could you just terminate the contract?"
He was very happy watching Yuan Yitong's live broadcast. He could make money as well. He was a real winner in life.
The happiest thing in the world is to do your job which you like.
Yuan Yitong casually responded: "Isn't this just to concentrate on playing games?"
Mu He couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Although Mu He does not do live streaming, he knows that it is not easy to terminate the contract with a platform.
Either Yuan Yitong paid a large sum of liquidated damages, or he had no intention of signing for too long from the beginning and ended the contract renewal early.
There was a rumor a year ago that Yuling was going to open a new server. Could it be...
Mu He shrugged and decided not to think about it anymore.
Yuan Yitong is rich and famous, and has many more options than him. He probably just wants to take a long vacation and play games to his heart's content.
It’s not incomprehensible.
After all, this person is as willful as he is.
The two chatted about some random things, then connected to the game console and played video games for a while.
Although I didn't get to go out and have fun, I still had a lot of fun.
Some friends you lose contact with after graduation, but some friends are lifelong.
Mu He and Yuan Yitong are lifelong friends. They understand and appreciate each other.
Although our interests and hobbies are not exactly the same, we always have common topics to talk about.
That night, Yuan Yitong slept at Mu He's house.
The next day, both of them got up early. Mu He went to work, and Yuan Yitong changed into the dried clothes and went home.
Before they parted ways, Yuan Yitong said to Mu He, "If we really want to compete, why don't we build a club?"
Mu He laughed, thinking Yuan Yitong was even more unrealistic than him: "Where do we get the funds?"
"There will always be one." Yuan Yitong smiled back, "Isn't there me? I'm popular with both men and women~"
However, that afternoon, when Mu He returned home from get off work and logged into the game, he heard the system prompt that Yuantong had been killed as soon as he came online. He could not believe his ears!
Mu He: [Damn! What's going on? Another reckless person?]
[No.] Yuan Yitong's tone was serious for once. [It's okay, I can handle it.]
After Yuan Yitong was resurrected, he immediately looked at his equipment and the items in his storage space. Most of them had been exploded. It was a disaster.
However, what was even more disastrous was that the person who killed him actually touched the corpse!
It’s not the kind of “touching corpses” in the game where you take equipment from a corpse, but it literally means touching his corpse!
To be exact, I touched his chest!

Yuan Yitong made a "tsk" sound.
From the moment he saw the other party's guild name "Yuzhisu", he had a bad feeling, but he was still careless. He didn't expect the other party to suddenly attack and catch him off guard with a series of combos.
The man who killed him was called "The Rain Stopped", the guild leader of the "Rain Inn" guild, an elf wizard.
But Yuan Yitong was not sure who the person under his skin was.
He hesitated for a moment and sent a friend request to "The Rain Stopped".
It passed almost instantly.
Then Yuan Yitong started to wail at the other party: [Bad guy! Give it back to me! Give me back all my things! My equipment, my materials, my moral integrity!]
[Snort——] The other party sneered disdainfully, [Integrity, do you have any?]
"Yes!" Yuan Yitong answered confidently, then tentatively asked, "But you, a professional player, are bullying ordinary players. Have you lost your moral integrity?"
[You? An ordinary player?] The rain stopped and he sneered again, [Come on, you haven't even changed your image. I don't know if you really want to hide yourself, senior.]
The word "senior" gave Yuan Yitong goosebumps, but it also made him immediately determine who the person under the other person's skin was.
There is no mistake, it is Yu Guo Tian Qing - the captain of the Yu Su team.
Yuan Yitong frowned, wondering how the other party discovered him.
Although he was prepared to fall from grace the moment he decided to return to the holographic competitive circle, he fell from grace too quickly anyway.
I always feel like someone is secretly fanning the flames.
The rain stopped: [I picked up everything you dropped. I can return it to you if you beat me in the arena.]
[Sure.] Yuan Yitong agreed without hesitation and sent the other party a request for an arena match.
The rain stopped: [You are still as resolute as ever.]
Yuan Yitong: [You're still so... sorry, you were a substitute when I played competitively? I don't know you very well.]
The rain stopped: [Heh.]
If you lose in the arena PK, you won’t drop your equipment, so before entering the arena, Yuan Yitong unceremoniously took out the professional clothes that Mu He made for him from the warehouse and put them on.
The two competed for 15 minutes and Yuan Yitong won.
But there was nothing to be proud of. After all, he was only level 26, and when the rain stopped, he was only level 25. Moreover, the wizard's endurance was higher than that of the mage, and the longer the time dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for the mage.
In other words, the outcome of this PK was doomed from the beginning - either Yu Stopped and used a burst of damage to take Yuan Yitong away, or Yuan Yitong dragged the game to the late stage and counterattacked to win.
After leaving the arena, Yuan Yitong checked the spoils he had obtained and made sure that all the items that had exploded were returned. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
The equipment and medicine don’t matter. The key is the materials, especially the “Fairy Wings”. Every pair is the result of his hard work!
[Wizard, it suits you very well.] Suddenly, the rain stopped and I said, [Long time no see.]
haven't seen you for a long time.
Isn't it? It's been four years...
Yuan Yitong asked while tidying up the storage space: [Who asked you to test me?]
The rain stopped: [I can’t say that.]
Yuan Yitong: [Wow, there really is such a person? ]
The rain stopped: [……]
Yuan Yitong: [Forget it, I don't want to know. It's only a matter of time before I get busted, so it doesn't matter whether that person is there or not.]
The rain stopped and he said "hmm" and then asked, "How does it feel to be back in the game?"
Yuan Yitong: [Not bad.]
The rain stopped: [I’m sorry about what happened before.]
Yuan Yitong: [Hmm...what do you mean?]
The rain stopped: [You know.]
Yuan Yitong was distracted for a moment and didn't want to recall the past.
However, even without recalling it, he knew what the other party was referring to.
Isn't it just that you dislike him playing a female character?
The problem is that the male characters in "Strange World" all have the same body shape, which is very different from his real body shape, which really affects his performance...
Okay, he admitted that these were all excuses, he just wanted to play a female character.
Yuan Yitong: [Don't mention the past anymore. I've forgotten it long ago. I didn't plan on returning to Yusu this time, so you don't have to say these things against your will. Go ahead and scold me if you want.]
The rain stopped and he was silent for a moment, then he replied calmly: "It's okay, it's not against my will. I just used to think you were a pervert, but now I realize you're just mentally ill, so I understand and sympathize with you."
Yuan Yitong cursed.
Yu stopped and scoffed. "Don't be nervous. I'm here to chat with you today as a personal matter. This has nothing to do with Team Yusu or the Yuzhisu Guild. You can continue to kill the hidden boss. Yusu won't bother you."
After a pause, without waiting for Yuan Yitong's response, he added, "I still have training to do. I'm leaving now. See you later... at the competition venue."
Yuan Yitong was about to say something but stopped himself. Before he could respond, he received a system notification that "The Rain Stopped" was offline.
Yuan Yitong was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.
Remembering that Mu He was still worried about him, he quickly sent a voice message: [Mu Mu Mu, I'm back! I've got everything back! Don't worry, I'm fine!]
Mu He, who finally received his message, breathed a sigh of relief: "Tsk, who's worried about you? I'm worried that your fairy wings will be blown up!"
Yuan Yitong: [Can't you be more frank?]
Mu He: [Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense, finish the fight quickly and come and play with me.]
Yuan Yitong: [Completely ojbk! ]
At the same time, on the other side, Feng Xiyan, who was about to go online, received a message from "Rain Passes and the Sky Clears":
After the Rain: Confirmed, the cylinder is the waltz.
Seeing this message, Feng Xiyan was stunned for a moment, and after a while he tentatively replied:
Xiao Qingkuang: Do you know his true identity?
After the rain comes the clear sky: I don’t know.
Xiao Qingkuang: So what kind of person is he?
After the rain comes the sun: Which aspect do you mean?
Laughing frivolously: personality and character.
After the rain: It’s okay.
Xiao Qingkuang: Be more specific.
After the rain cleared, he reflected, taking a moment to organize his thoughts: He was decisive and efficient, but also prone to erratic behavior. He wasn't very reliable at ordinary times, but reliable in crucial moments. He was a man of integrity and protective of his people. Once, a teammate was killed, and a piece of equipment was dropped and found by someone else. He chased the person down with his main character for three days until he recovered the item.
When Feng Xiyan saw this, Fang Cheng’s words flashed through his mind for some reason - he’s a werewolf!
Before I could come to my senses, another line of text appeared in the chat box.
After the rain comes the clear sky: If you want to form a team and recruit him to join, I hope you can protect him well.
Xiao Qingkuang: What does it mean?
After the rain comes the clear sky: To put it nicely, he's tolerant, but to put it bluntly, he's stupid. He won't explain when misunderstood, and won't talk back when scolded. He lets things escalate to a point of no return.
Rainy Days: Let me tell you, he was hurt pretty badly by his fans, but it was all his own fault. He refused to admit he was a man until someone exposed him, which ultimately led to him being ostracized by everyone. His fans turned against him, his teammates ostracized him, and even deliberately tried to disrupt his performance during games.
After the rain comes the clear sky: But he is really ruthless. Even in such a situation, he can still insist on reaching the finals without saying a word.
After the rain comes the sun: However, on the day of the final, he disappeared.
Laughing frivolously:?
Yu Guo Tian Qing: I don't know the specifics, but shortly after he disappeared, something went wrong with Ghost World. Many players found their real information exposed, and some were retaliated against in-game by their enemies in real life. Ghost World was completely wiped out because of this incident, and the holographic competitive scene was in a slump for a long time.
Yu Guo Tian Qing: Currently, many people online are analyzing that professional players of "Ghost World" don't play "Imperial Spirit" because the gameplay of the two games is so different. How is that possible? No. It's because many people have psychological trauma.
Xiao Qingkuang: You don’t have it?
After the rain comes the clear sky: At least I wasn’t stabbed in the back in real life.
Xiao Qingkuang: Waltz was stabbed?
Yuguotianqing: I said, I don't know the specific circumstances. But, for someone so obsessed with the championship, how could he miss the finals unless something happened in real life?
Feng Xiyan was silent.
He asked Yu Guotianqing to test the cylinder. He originally just wanted to use the cylinder to confirm Mu He's identity, but he never expected that it would involve such an incident.
He didn't know whether he should continue asking or stop here.
However, Yu Guo Tian Qing was already high at this moment, even if he didn't get a reply, he kept sending messages one after another:
After the Rain: I don’t know why he suddenly came back. He has been missing for four years. You can imagine how deeply the "Ghost World" hurt him.
After the rain comes the sun: Perhaps during these four years, he met someone who helped him open his heart and gave him courage.
After the rain comes the clear sky: If there really is such a person, no matter who he is, I sincerely thank him.
Yuguotianqing: To be honest, I don't like him. I don't know what he looks like in real life, but when I think of him being a greasy old man, I... you know what I mean. It's not unfair that he gets criticized.
After the Rain: But I admire him.
After the rain comes the clear sky: Think about his situation at that time, how many people could have persisted?
Xiao Qingkuang: ...
After the rain, the sky clears up: What happened?
Xiao Qingkuang: No, it’s just the first time I feel you are quite nagging.
After the rain, the sky clears up: ...
After the rain, the sky cleared up: I won’t say anymore, I’m going to training.
Xiao Qingkuang: Yeah.
After Feng Xiyan replied with "Yeah", he breathed a sigh of relief - it was finally over.
Did this person pour out all the words he had been holding back for so many years in one breath?
Well, we can't just pour it on Yuantong himself.
Feng Xiyan could tell that the relationship between the two people was not good in the past. Maybe they had done something bad to Yuantong before, and they only started to regret it when something happened to Yuantong.
The professional circle of "Ghost World" is really messy.
After Feng Xiyan complained in his heart, he sat in the holographic cabin and logged into the game.
As a result, as soon as I logged in, I saw the administrators of the two major guilds quarreling in the world channel...
Suifeng: ???
[World] No Rainbow After the Rain (Rain Inn): Go ahead and kill the world! Are you going to stop?! Why are you killing people from our guild?!
[World] Kill the World (Death Hymn): Where's your leader? Come out and challenge me!
[World] There's No Rainbow After the Rain (Ame no Yoko): Are you crazy?! What does this have to do with our president?
[World] "Kill the World" (Death Hymn): Whoever kills our guild, we'll kill him! Let him come online and fight me in a one-on-one duel! If he doesn't come out, you Yusu people will kill him with Death Hymn!
What's going on?
Before Suifeng could react, Mu He pulled him into the team and then heard Mu He's voice.
Mu He is now in a state of panic: [What's going on? ]
Yuan Yitong was even more confused than him: [I'm confused too. Just now, Qie Shi Tian Xia poked me and asked who killed me. I said it was the president of Yu Zhi Su. He replied with an "oh" and then ignored me. Who knew he would lead his team to slaughter Yu Zhi Su without saying a word?]
Mu He: [Damn! The Death Hymn guild is really ruthless!]
Yuan Yitong: [I poked him and explained it was a misunderstanding, but he ignored me. Now I don’t know what to do.]
Mu He raised his hand to support his forehead.
First it was the Reckless and Frivolous, then it was the Rain Inn, and the hatred between the two major guilds was maximized by them.
If this continues, the Death Hymn guild will probably be doomed.
However, there was one thing that concerned Mu He - before today, Qie Shi Tianxia's ranking on the kill list was even lower than that of the priest Sui Feng. It could be seen that although Qie Shi Tianxia was one of the administrators of the Death Hymn, he was not as "murderous" as their president and other administrators. He probably did not like fighting.
Why did I suddenly...
Mu He couldn't figure out the reason, but Suifeng knew it very well and was speechless - he might have to take the blame this time.
