Chapter 365

Su Bai sat alone in the living room with a cup of tea in front of him. It was poured by Lychee. Then, Lychee and Fatso went to the study to discuss some matters. Su Bai, the master of the house, was now more like a guest.

Even Su Bai felt that it was ridiculous and strange. After taking a sip of tea, Su Bai stood up and walked to the room facing the sun on the first floor. He pushed open the door. The room was not dusty and stuffy as he had imagined. On the contrary, it was very clear. He looked at the offering table, the picture of his parents, and the surrounding area. It was very clean.

Su Bai had told the housekeeping company that this room was not allowed to be cleaned. The housekeeping company would not make such a mistake. Moreover, looking at the traces, it had just been cleaned a few days ago.

He felt strange. Could it be that Lychee cleaned it?

There was a new incense burner here, and there were still incense sticks on it that had not been burned completely.

Su Bai did not burn incense or pay his respects to his parents. When he returned home on the first day, he did not pay his respects either. He did not even enter this room.

Outside, Lychee and Fatso should have finished their discussion. Fatso came out while flattering and bowing.

When he reached the door, Lychee stopped. Then, he pushed the door open and saw Su Bai standing there.

"I helped you clean it," Lychee said.

Fatso stood at the side with a trademark smile on his face. Su Bai had seen Fatso's ability. He could suppress the bronze chest, which showed his strength. However, even Fatso acted like a grandson in front of Lychee. This showed Lychee's identity and status.

Previously, because Yigu knew that Su Bai and Lychee knew each other, his attitude towards Su Bai changed drastically. Therefore, perhaps Su Bai, who was not very familiar with the circle, could not accurately sense how terrifying Lychee was. However, those old foxes could.

"Meddlesome." Su Bai replied. Then, he took the incense burner and threw it into the trash can at the side.

Lychee frowned.

Fatso was dumbfounded. She thought that this guy was really awesome. He dared to slap her in the face in public. Not bad, not bad. It was admirable. It would be even better if he didn't die in the next second.

However, something even more surprising to Fatso happened. Lychee did not directly punish this guy.

Instead, he asked, "Why?"

Su Bai shrugged. "My mother said in her suicide note that she didn't want to be worshipped after her death. She hated my father's smoking and hated it all her life. She didn't want to be placed on the offering table after her death and have to cover her nose to avoid the smell of smoke."

Lychee nodded and smiled. "This is in line with your mother's personality."

"In fact, my mother also said that she did not agree to me putting her photo here because she felt that the black and white photo would make her look ugly."

As Su Bai said this, a smile appeared on his lips. Although his parents had passed away early, they still had a deep impression in his memory. Even though his mother was a mother, she still had the mischievousness of a girl. He remembered that his mother had once dressed him up as a little princess. When his father came home and saw it, he was furious.

"I was rude. I'm sorry." Lychee apologized to Su Bai.

"It's okay. By the way, do you know my parents?"

Su Bai asked. If Lychee knew his parents, then it made sense that Lychee had taken care of him before. There were so many houses here. With Lychee's ability, he could live anywhere, but he chose to live in his house. Thinking about it, this must be the reason.

"I'm an orphan," Lychee said. Lychee said, "I grew up in an orphanage. That orphanage was sponsored by your mother."

"That orphanage is closed now, right?" Su Bai asked.

"Yes, it's closed. A few years after your parents passed away, it was closed due to lack of funds. But at that time, I was considered to have grown up and could leave the orphanage."

"I'm sorry."

Su Bai began to apologize. The property his parents had left for Su Bai was not only a huge amount of real estate and savings, but also a lot of company shares. Now, they were all under Su Bai's name. It could be said that Su Bai was not short of money. He did not do anything, but the wealth under his name was still increasing. However, because of his parents' accident, Su Bai could be considered to have left Chengdu to live and study in the eastern coastal area. Some of the things his parents had done in the past, such as funding schools and children, Su Bai did not continue to care about them.

It was not that Su Bai did not know about this. In fact, many schools, orphanages, and other relief organizations had tried to find Su Bai's contact information to continue funding, but they were all coldly rejected by Su Bai. At that time, Su Bai felt that it was really meaningless for his parents to die early after doing so many good things.

Lychee stood beside Su Bai and looked at the two photos on the offering table.

"Aunt Xu is a very good person. I like her very much."

"Thank you."

"I won't stay here for long. I'll be away for a long time. It might be half a year, a year, or even longer."

"Okay." Su Bai looked very calm. He did not want to know the relationship between Lychee and his mother before getting any help from Lychee. If he did that, it would be blasphemy to his mother.

"I will stay because I can't take Ji Xiang away," Lychee continued. "Zhang Bayi is also from Chengdu. If you need anything in the future, you can look for him."

Fatso immediately puffed out his chest and raised his head. "Yes, yes."

Lychee turned around and looked at Su Bai. "Actually, when I was young, I saw you when you were young. At that time, you were sitting in the car. Your mother asked you to come down and play with us, but you refused."

Su Bai smiled.

"I can't help you any more. If I don't leave, I can actually help you a lot. I can even guarantee that you will survive. But I have to leave. If I affect you too much before I leave, it will be taken into account by the terror broadcast. Then, in your next story mission, it will increase the difficulty for you. It will make it harder for you to survive. By then, I won't be here anymore, so I can't help you resolve it. So, I can only harm you. "

"You don't have to explain. I understand."

"Go back to the nursing home. I'll leave tomorrow. Help me take care of Ji Xiang."

After saying these words, Lychee gently bowed to the photo of Su Bai's parents and then left the room.

Su Bai and Fatso left their home together, a home temporarily occupied by a magpie's nest.

The two of them stood at the entrance of the residential area. Fatso had a cigarette in his mouth and a lighter in his hand. He sighed and said, "What a pity. There was originally a beautiful and powerful leg in front of you, but you didn't have the chance to hug it. Tsk tsk, what a pity."

Su Bai looked at Fatso and then moved his gaze down to Fatso's leg. Fatso immediately shivered and said embarrassedly, "My leg is not as thick as hers. No, no, no, it's thicker than hers, and it has leg hair."

"Are you going back?" Su Bai asked.

Fatso nodded.

"I'll help you get a taxi."

"Okay."

After what had happened, Fatso's attitude toward Su Bai had clearly improved.

Just as Su Bai was about to get a taxi, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his chest. His breathing immediately became extremely difficult.

Then, Su Bai squatted on the ground with his hands on the ground. Cold sweat began to flow down.

At this time, Su Bai suddenly realized that Fatso was also kneeling on the ground like him. His face was also covered in sweat.

Fortunately, this painful feeling soon disappeared. Su Bai and Fatso both sat on the ground and panted.

Fatso looked at the residential area behind him with hatred and gritted his teeth. "Damn, this woman knew long ago. She deliberately dragged me to be your nanny."

Su Bai took out his mobile phone. As expected, he received a preview private message in WeChat. It was a picture:

[Story World]: Death's Taunt

[Story Attribute]: Death Struggle

[Story Audience]: 20 people — Yigu, Zhang Bayi, Su Bai, …

[Main Mission]: Unknown

[PS]: Enter the story world 3 days after this notice is released.

There was a picture attached to the picture. It was of a barren mountain.

However, other than Yigu, himself, and Zhang Bayi, Su Bai could see the rest of the audience members who participated in this mission. The other people's names were blurry. Su Bai looked at Fatso's phone screen again and realized that there were a few more names on Fatso's side than his. They were probably people that Fatso already knew.

Fatso covered his face with both hands. He wanted to cry, but no tears came out.

"F * ck your ancestors. A 20-person group mission."

Previously, in the taxi, Fatso had explained to Su Bai that the more people participated, the higher the death rate. This also meant that the story world was more dangerous.

Su Bai looked at Fatso and said, "Cheer up."

Fatso turned his head to look at Su Bai, then looked at the residential area behind him. He sniffled and nodded, but the bitter expression on his face was still very obvious.

At that moment, Su Bai's phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number from Chongqing. Su Bai was not in a hurry to pick it up. Instead, he went through the number in his mind and finally found a trace of an impression. In the previous story, he had exchanged numbers with someone.

"Hello." Su Bai picked up the phone.

"Hello, Su Bai? Come and save me."

"Where are you?" Su Bai frowned, but Yigu's voice did not sound that dangerous.

"I was going to drive from Chongqing to Chengdu to play with you today. When I was driving, that damn radio gave me a mission notice, causing me to drive straight into a ditch."
