006. Let's Talk
He Jin's mood was very complicated. He didn't know if it was because he had just seen the ranking list, but he felt that the other person's image at the moment was inexplicably high …
It was human instinct to worship the strong, especially those who were so strong that they couldn't raise their fighting spirit, they were even more awe-inspiring.
But when it came to the strong, different people would have different reactions. Some people would want to kneel and lick their thighs, some people would straightforwardly say that they like them, and some people would be jealous, unwilling to fight …
And He Jin was a cold person, so when it came to those who were stronger than him, he would obviously talk more than usual.
However, as he was not considered an insider in this game, he did not show too much enthusiasm. It was like how a person who did not play the piano would not understand how good Bach was, and a person who did not draw would not know what was so good about Van Gogh's paintings. It was like looking at the moon through the clouds, not knowing what was so good about it.
He Jin was now more curious than before. He was curious about what Fire Ruthless thought when he was ranked first on the ranking list, curious about his experience, curious about how deep his realm was, and curious about his actions now …
He Jin couldn't help but open the dialog box, and sent his questions over –
Xiao Xian Jin, "I just saw the ranking list, how did you become so powerful!"
Xiao Xian Jin, "Where is this? Are you taking me to see the scenery? "
Xiao Xian Jin, "Is the level cap now 100?"
Xiao Xian Jin, "What does the realm 'Demon Lord' mean?"
Xiao Xian Jin, "Just now on the cliff, those two newcomers couldn't see you?"
Xiao Xian Jin, "Why did they thank you when you killed them?"
… …
Just as he was getting excited, the other side suddenly replied, which scared He Jin so much that he immediately pulled back his hand from the keyboard.
Fire Ruthless, "Let's talk."
He Jin's forehead was dripping cold sweat …
He suddenly realized a very important question – did Fire know that he was a "man"?
He Jin forgot whether he had exposed his gender in the past. Of course, it was not that he couldn't confess now, but the point was … eight years had passed, and Fire was still not divorced. He Jin couldn't figure out the other side's thoughts. If Fire was really an idiot and waited for him for eight years, he would be stabbed when he came online …
Thinking of this, He Jin's forehead was dripping cold sweat again …
He didn't want to think too highly of himself, but he still … had some humanity in him.
Fire Ruthless sent another message, "The last time I talked to you was eight years ago, I don't know how you sound now."
He Jin was sweating like a waterfall …
Did he actually talk to Fire in the past?! Young and ignorant!
He Jin counted with his fingers. Eight years ago, when he was in the second year of middle school, it seemed that his voice hadn't changed yet. He developed very late, and was one of the last batch of boys in his class to go through the voice change period. Before that, because of his soft voice, He Jin was often teased that he looked like a little girl. Of course, this was a dark history that He Jin was unwilling to admit. Now that he had a clear and pleasant voice, it was impossible for anyone to mistake him for someone else.
Looking at Fire Ruthless's words, He Jin hesitated for a moment before replying, "Sorry, my roommate is here, it's not convenient."
The reason for his refusal had nothing to do with the problem he was struggling with. After becoming an adult, He Jin was very cautious. He wouldn't casually exchange private information with his friends on the Internet. Before he knew the root of the problem, he didn't talk much. In his opinion, playing games was just for "fun". No matter what the relationship was in the game, once it was offline, it would have nothing to do with him.
So he simply found an excuse to refuse. In fact, it wasn't really an "excuse", it was indeed inconvenient for his roommate to be here.
Fire Ruthless, "Oh, then when I talk, will you listen?"
He Jin, "…"
Fire Ruthless, "You can hear it."
He Jin, who had just heard the passers-by's conversation and asked Fire related questions … had been exposed!
Fire Ruthless, "Otherwise, with so many questions, I would have to type for a long time to explain."
Xiao Xian Jin, "Well …"
Well, it's just a voice, it's nothing.
After a slight "click" sound in the headset, a young man's voice came out … "Hello?"
They were standing face to face in the game, so He Jin felt that the voice seemed to be coming from the front, very close … Suddenly, the distance between them was shortened.
The other side asked tentatively, "Can you hear it, Ah Jin?"
The voice was completely different from He Jin's. It was low, a little bit hoarse, intimate and natural, as if they had known each other for a long time. Especially that "Ah Jin", He Jin didn't know how to describe it, he felt like his ears were being gently bitten … His whole body tensed up, and he nervously typed, "I hear it."
If he was allowed to speak, he would probably stutter.
Qin Yu received the reply, looked through the chat history, and asked, "Do you think I'm taking you to see the scenery?" He automatically ignored He Jin's first compliment, "Have you forgotten everything?"
He Jin felt guilty, "It's okay …"
– Why do I feel like I'm being interrogated? What happened to answering questions?!
Fire Ruthless paused and said, "I'm helping you find your memories."
He Jin, "…" Ominous premonition orz …
Fire Ruthless, "This is the place where we first died together? Do you remember? "
He Jin, "…" Who would remember this kind of thing so clearly?
Fire Ruthless slowly said, "When I first started playing this game, I directly used the default mortal race, and I didn't know there was a 'spirit'. So, when I first saw your 'corpse', I thought you were a monster." Speaking of this, the other side's tone had a hint of a smile.
He Jin had a little impression, this idiot did seem to be curious about whether he was a real player or not, and it took him a long time to explain!
Fire Ruthless, "For a long time, I suspected that you were a pet in the game, and that you could be domesticated."
Xiao Xian Jin, "I'm going to faint …"
For a long time? He Jin always thought that after he finished explaining, the other side would understand, but it turned out that he was still suspected after that?
Fire Ruthless asked, "When I killed you, did you see the system prompt?"
Xiao Xian Jin, "Hmm?" – What prompt? Was it the prompt that I was killed?
The other side was silent for two seconds, and Fire Ruthless on the screen suddenly raised his hand, a trace of blue light gathered between his fingers, and flew toward Xiao Xian Jin like an arrow.
System: You are attacked by Fire Ruthless.
He Jin, "!!!" … Again!
He Jin had no power to resist, and the blue-clothed loli on the screen was hit, as if she had been hit by a cannon. She flew directly into the air, twisted into a tragic posture, and then with a "poof", she shrank into a long white animal and fell to the ground …
System: You are dead.
Elongated limbs, a sharp mouth, and closed black eyes, the miserable death was unbearable to look at.
Just like the real scene, after "death" He Jin couldn't hear any sound. The friend bar flashed, and he opened it to see –
Fire Ruthless, "The corpse is very cute ^ ^"
Xiao Xian Jin, "…"
Seeing the last expression, He Jin's veins on his forehead jumped.
After Fire Ruthless resurrected him, He Jin heard a burst of suppressed laughter coming from the headset. He gritted his teeth and typed a sentence, "Don't tell me your hand slipped again this time!"
Fire Ruthless avoided answering, and asked directly, "Did you see a message that prompted you to increase your experience?"
He Jin was stunned, the system message would be saved in the public channel in the lower left corner. He slid the light panel to check, and sure enough, he found such a message, which was after the notification of "death".
System: You have gained 300 experience points.
Xiao Xian Jin, "I saw it …"
– Experience after death? What the hell is this setting?

"Hello, Ah Jin?" After connecting the voice, there was a voice from the other side, which sounded about the same age as him.
After a few seconds, He Jin cautiously replied, "Yes". This was the first time he talked to a netizen, so he was excited with a trace of shyness. His voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
Fire Ruthless, "Your voice is so soft …"
He Jin, "Can't you hear me?"
Fire Ruthless, "I can hear you! Hey hey … "
He Jin, "What are you laughing at?"
Fire Ruthless, "This is the first time I talk to someone."
He Jin, "Me too."
Fire Ruthless, "Hey hey hey …"
He Jin laughed and scolded him, "What's wrong with you?"
Fire Ruthless giggled for a while and asked, "Are your parents at home?"
He Jin, "No, they went out. They have to work overtime on Saturdays."
Fire Ruthless, "Oh, then let's chat and play games every Saturday, okay?"
He Jin didn't think too much about it, he just casually said, "Okay" and said, "Let's hurry up and play games. I don't have much time, I still have homework to do later."
Both of them had already logged into the game. He Jin's "Xiao Xian Jin" was already level 19. He Jin looked at Fire Ruthless, who was level 17, still two levels lower than him, humph ~
In the game, Fire Ruthless was silently following He Jin, but he kept talking in the headset.
Fire Ruthless, "Ah Jin, what grade are you in now? Are your grades very good? "
He Jin's mind was on the game, he answered Fire Ruthless, "Second grade, my grades are okay, I'm usually the first in class."
Fire Ruthless exclaimed, "Wow! First! You're so good! "
He Jin, "I can't help it, if I don't get the first place, my mother will go crazy."
Fire Ruthless, "Are you afraid of your mother?"
He Jin, "I'm afraid, that woman is so abnormal."
Fire Ruthless, "Oh … Then your grades are so good, are you sure you'll go to college in the future?"
He Jin, "Of course, don't you want to go to college?"
Fire Ruthless, "My grades are so bad, I might not be able to go to college, and I don't want to go to college, what's the benefit of going to college …"
He Jin went to a key junior high school, the competition was huge. Although his classmates also played games, they wouldn't put the cart before the horse, and aim to go to a better school.
It was the first time He Jin met a peer who said he wouldn't go to college, he couldn't help but be surprised, "What can you do if you don't study?"
Fire Ruthless, "Work, of course. My dad said that if I don't want to study, I can just work for him when the time comes."
He Jin immediately thought of the news that often talked about migrant workers who dropped out of school early to work and so on. He immediately sympathized with him, and earnestly said, "You still have to study. Although I also feel that studying is boring, it's the only way to change your destiny … Only by going to college can you have a chance to find a better job, earn more money than others, live the life you want, and become a self-reliant man!"
Fire Ruthless, "…"
This was the fifteen-year-old He Jin's understanding of going to college. He didn't know that in just a few words, he had changed a teenager's view of studying.
Fire Ruthless, "Ah Jin, what kind of college do you want to go to?"
He Jin, "Well, if I can keep my grades, I should go to Hua University … My mom always said that I should go to Hua University."
Fire Ruthless, "I know."
