C8 Unknown Cohabitants
Holding the card that Zhao Lili gave him, Shen Ann hummed a song and slowly walked towards his destination.
"You were once childish and chased after me endlessly ~"
"You understand that victory is not something that life must ~ The scariest thing in life is the fear of failure ~ ~"
He was still wearing a white shirt which was stained with blood. His clothes were a bit messy, and his face was still pale, making him look like a homeless man.
But his footsteps were leisurely and firm, as if he was a "fool" who was immersed in his own world.
The busy pedestrians hurried by, glancing with wonder and curiosity at the handsome "vagabond," and a little closer to the sound of his song, which the passers-by frowned at to indicate was too much of a defilement.
The bright moonlight made his shadow elongate. The sound of the traffic didn't disturb him at all.
Shen Ann enjoyed the rare silence amidst the noise.
In his opinion, the silence born from the liveliness was the best time to relax.
It was originally quite good, until the ear-piercing and funny ringtone suddenly sounded in the crowd.
The gazes of the pedestrians on the street became even stranger.
However, Shen Ann did not care at all. He could feel his pocket trembling violently. He stopped the singing and took out his pink phone.
After a long pause, the chat box of the healing system finally showed the content of the words.
"[Congratulations, you have successfully completed the mission: Mother's worry, you will receive 1 point and mission reward: "A new set of clothes," and you have triggered the hidden main mission.]"
"[Next, the hidden main mission: "Mother's Worries" will be activated: 1: "Unknown cohabitant." The system has accepted your mission.]"
"Unknown cohabitant: Please get along with Zhao Lili's daughter for a month and try to get to know each other as much as you can during that month so that you can prepare for your next mission."
"Reward: Unknown."
"When you complete this commission, you will receive 1 point of credit. Current points: 1"
Shen Ann carefully read through the words released by the system and put it back into his pocket.
There was actually a hidden main storyline mission.
But Shen Ann knew things were not as simple as they seemed. The first commission was at best just a knock on the door. "Will you be willing to help me or not?" and "actual help success" were two completely different meanings.
"A month of peaceful coexistence?"
Shen Ann pondered the contents of the request. Logically speaking, this was a very simple task.
As long as the other party was a normal person, even if the other party was a normal person, he was confident that he would be able to maintain a peaceful relationship with the other party for a month.
From the wording of it, there did not seem to be anything out of the ordinary.
However, Shen Ann felt that the four words peaceful coexistence were not that simple, and the system gave him a month's time.
In other words, if he had any conflict with her or was forced to end their cohabitation within this month, would he fail the mission?
Forget it.
Shen Ann organized his thoughts and couldn't be bothered to think too much about it.
He had never met Zhao Lili's daughter before. It was hard to come to a conclusion just by imagining it.
Whether the other party was a normal person or not, they would have to wait until they met before they could be sure.
Compared to that, he was more concerned about this so-called points.
The rewards for the two missions in a row were both one point points. Did that mean that the points for each mission were one point?
Then he would have to complete a hundred missions before he could make a wish.
A hundred?
It wasn't a lot, but it wasn't a small amount either.
Shen Ann narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that this experience was getting more and more interesting.
Right now, he did not care too much about the so-called rewards. He did not even care if he made a wish or not.
If he were to treat it as a game, Shen Ann would be trying to let him enjoy it.
In fact, he was already enjoying it.
As he thought about this, a bag suddenly floated down from the sky and hit Shen Ann's head.
He raised his eyebrows, picked up the bag, and opened it.
There was a brand new set of clothes here, and even his underwear was prepared for him. The most intimate thing was that there were three pieces of underwear.
Wuu wu wu wu wu wu.
The healing system was really too gentle.
But why didn't it prepare two sets of clothes as well?
Shen Ann touched the blood stains on his shirt, not knowing if it could be washed clean.
If he could not clean it up, he had to think of a way to buy a new set of clothes, or at least ensure a normal rotation.
Very quickly, under the instructions of the passerby, Shen Ann found the hotel that Zhao Lili mentioned.
It was indeed the most luxurious hotel in Eighth Sea City!
He stood at the intersection across from the hotel and looked up. There was a majestic feeling that he could not see the end of.
This hotel seemed to be straight up into the clouds, matching the bright moon and stars.
After blinking a few times, the illusion disappeared.
Although the building was tall, it was not as high as the sky.
At the entrance of the hotel, there were seven big golden words carved on it: "Jade Sea Chain Hotel."
Restaurant Chain.
This meant that this hotel not only existed in Bahai City, but also in other places.
That Ms. Zhao Lili was indeed a rich woman.
What a pity ~
Shen Ann was not interested in a married woman.
A burst of fragrance suddenly attracted his attention.
He turned his head and saw an outdoor stall on the side of the road. Under the black iron pot was a hot fire with golden river powder being stir-fried in it.
Looking along the street, there were all kinds of food and drinks mixed together.
There were not only stalls but also barbeques, various snacks, and even candied haws.
The fragrance of different foods mixed with the air, attracting everyone.
Naturally, this included Shen Ann.
As he looked at them, he was actually a little hungry.
Feeling around in his empty pockets, Shen Ann could only give up his appetite helplessly and quickly walked to the Jade Sea Hotel across the road.
"Hello, sir?"
The hotel waiter immediately came forward and politely asked Shen Ann.
Shen Ann took out the card that Zhao Lili gave him: "Do you have an empty room?"
The waiter took Zhao Lili's card and looked at Shen Ann in surprise.
"Yes."
He turned around: "You hold the exclusive VIP card of this hotel, you can unconditionally stay in any suite."
As he spoke, he brought Shen Ann to the front desk and swiped the card on it. After confirming that there was no mistake, he asked Shen Ann to choose his own suite.
Shen Ann casually picked one of the rooms and followed the waiter to his own room.
"Uh, uhm, is there anything else in the hotel?"
Shen Ann sat in the room and asked casually.
"Service?" The waiter's eyes suddenly turned strange.
"Right, such as eating, drinking, and so on."
The waiter was stunned for a moment before he introduced, "The first to the tenth floor is the food and beverages area. The doors are open 24 hours a day, the tenth to the thirtieth floor is the housing area, and the thirtieth to the 35th floor is the recreational area."
"Customer, if you need anything, you can go to the corresponding floor according to your needs."
"Cough, does the consumption also include this card?"
This was a question that Shen Ann was very concerned about.
If he did not buy it, he would have to think of a way to get rid of his stomach in the next few days.
"All the expenses below the 30th floor are included in the card bill."
"Oh ~ That's good. Thank you."
Shen Ann heaved a sigh of relief.
If it was below the 30th floor, then he could enjoy the food from the first to the 10th floor.
As for the so-called leisure area above the 30th floor, he had no interest in those things.
Wu ~
However, if there was an Internet cafe, he didn't mind going online either.
After all, he didn't have any other recreational equipment other than a phone that was so awkward that he was speechless.
He couldn't possibly let him watch TV in his room every day, right?
Closing the door behind him, Shen Ann quickly went to take a shower.
After putting on a pair of pajamas provided by the hotel, Shen Ann dried his hair and laid on the soft bed tiredly.
His body was a little tired, but he could not fall asleep.
After thinking about it for a while, he picked up the pink'brick' that was placed at the head of the bed and studied it carefully in the darkness.
After looking at it for about half an hour, he put down the phone, turned his body to the side, and closed his eyes.
This was an unfamiliar world.
But it was also an unknown world.
He didn't want to think about the long term future. Right now, he just wanted to sleep.
Slowly, slowly, he seemed to fall asleep, but his mind kept replaying the scene on the roof.
The girl who jumped down with determination.
It was just a quick glance, but he still had a deep impression of her.
Even when he was asleep, he would still dream about her.
Because that girl was really f * cking beautiful.
Pretty things could easily leave a deep impression on people.
Soon, the night passed.
After Shen Ann finished brushing his teeth, he washed his face, and revealed a perfect smile in front of the mirror.
However, he frowned slightly, feeling that the smile was a bit fake, and immediately changed his smile.
One after the other, he was like an actor who was trying his best to improve himself. He kept adjusting his micro-expressions.
This was something he would do every morning.
Because he was afraid that he would forget to show a "smile," and the corners of his mouth would curve into a smile.
This was an expression that he was unable to express on his own.
Apart from this, there was also sadness, sadness, crying, as well as many expressions that seemed to be instinctual to other people.
After repeating these exercises for about half an hour, Shen Ann picked up another handful of hot water and patted his face.
He revealed a bright smile and pulled the curtains open. The bright light shone on the room, illuminating the room.
However, he stood in the shadows and slowly put on the new clothes that the system gave him.
After everything was ready, he picked up the pink "brick" and went out.
He had no specific or specific goal. He just wanted to use these free hours to understand the world before Zhao Lili informed him.
At the very least, he wanted to know a bit about this Eight Seas City.
As the saying goes: do as the Romans do when in Rome.
There was nothing to lose by walking more and looking more.
After all, he had nothing to do right now.
