Chapter 1318 No.224: Abandon the calm filter here

One day ago, Rhode Island Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., employee dormitory.

In the Sui family dormitory, which is considered particularly special in the women's section, the double dormitory for Xi and Nian has always been the narrowest.

It was not discrimination within the company, but the painter Xida specially chose the smallest and most remote room, and then used her ability to create a world with ink to expand the interior of the room.

In the past, she would have been satisfied with the scenery she created, but nowadays, there is a difficult-to-overcome technical problem in the painting space: the network cable.

When you connect the network cable from reality to the painting, its properties will change and the network speed will fluctuate significantly.

This is very embarrassing!

Although I have added several spaces in the dormitory, I always have to return to reality when I go online, and when I return to reality I have to look at Nian's annoying face. Life has never been pleasant, until recently, when some changes happened.

"Sister." Looking at the painting reference on the screen, Xi suddenly asked.

Then a lazy and casual female voice came from behind.

"what happened?"

"How long do you plan to stay here with me?"

"Do you find me annoying?"

"Not really. When you're here, the New Year won't come. That's good."

"That's good~"

"That's good, but it's hard not to care."

Putting down the modern paintbrush that he had spent half a year to become familiar with, Xi turned his head, and the tail behind him, which always swayed subconsciously with the brushstrokes, finally moved away a little.

This allowed her to see the older sister lying on her side with her back to the bed, supporting herself with her elbows, her head with her palms, and her thighs folded in an alternative cross-legged position.

Looking at the side-lying position, if she hadn't seen something wrong with the hair and tail, she would have thought that Nian had come back again.

Xi could only sigh that in terms of their daily demeanor, these two were truly sisters. They were so casual and impolite that they deserved to be criticized by Sister Shu.

This feeling was in my heart, but I didn't say it, and I could hear the other party continue:
"What do you care about? After all this time, Xiaoxi, are you still not used to being in public?"

"That's not the problem..."

Spitting out this rebuttal in an almost tired tone, Xi stood up from the table, walked around to Ling, and saw her slowly open her eyes and look at him.

"how?"

She still looked indifferent, and asked Xi to pull a lazy cushion over to sit down and sighed: "Sister Ling, have you noticed that you haven't been drinking in the past two days?"

"What's wrong?" Ling smiled. "Xiao Xi complains about my drunkenness all day long, but now you can't stand it when I don't drink?"

"Yes, it's quite scary." Xi said frankly.

"Sister Ling, who hasn't drunk for two days in a row - I'm afraid if I type this in the group chat, my elder brother and sister Shu will all rush to the room."

"Is it really that scary?" Ling couldn't help but laugh out loud. He slowly sat up and smoothed his messy hair. "Sometimes you want to be more sober, and think about things more soberly."

"Are you really awake?"

"Ha, what does that mean? Am I still dreaming?"

"No, you are in reality," Xi met her gaze seriously, which was as casual and indifferent as usual, "I just find it hard to imagine that your sister needs to think about something more soberly."

"I'm a little curious about what image I have in Xiaoxi's mind."

"The drunker you are, the more sober you become. This is how I understand you, sister."

"Well, that's right. I am quite touched to hear Xiao Xi, who usually hates to drink with me, say this. It would be even better if I could see her being so honest on weekdays."

"What do you mean by ordinary days? Your statement proves that you also think this moment is unusual, right?"

"Indeed, you really hit the nail on the head. Xiaoxi, I wish you could talk so much on a normal day."

Ling was somewhat helpless, which made Xi speechless: "...I usually have a lot to say, but I just try to keep quiet to avoid Sister Shu."

"How sad it must have been for Shu to hear this."

"You're not trying to change the subject, are you, Sister Ling?"

"How could it be?" Ling said as he slowly closed his eyes. "As a stranger in a foreign land, all I can think about is you all."

"Isn't there still Omer?"

"Indeed, a new world, new old friends, the autumn moon is full again, the city walls are thousands of layers at night," she nodded slightly, deliberately not reciting the second half of the sentence, "He is a wonderful person, and he can get along so well with people like my elder brother and Shu."

"And what about my second brother? After that black snake, Sister Shu said that my second brother had sent me a message. He also wanted to meet that guy Omar and asked when he was free."

"Oh, it's not surprising. We should have known from the beginning that this would happen sooner or later."

"That's what he said, but he would ask when Omar was free - when did he become so polite?" "Maybe he stayed in Baizao for too long, and the Grand Master finally made some changes in him."

"Is change such an easy thing for us?"

"Of course not, but it is definitely not impossible. Don't you know this best, Xi?"

Ling chuckled, but still kept his eyes closed.

"The heart is something that can remain unchanged over the years, or it can be easily forgotten in a moment. Think about yourself a few years ago. Can you foresee what you will look like now?"

"I foresee myself using that little pressure-sensitive pen instead of a tail or a sword."

“…I still occasionally draw the old-fashioned way.”

Although there was nothing wrong with it, being pointed out made Xi feel embarrassed, as if she had betrayed her camp, and she stammered.

Her elder sister, who already had the upper hand in the conversation, just smiled and said, "It can be seen that your tail has always been restless."

"Don't talk nonsense! You are daydreaming, right?"

The younger sister seemed a little anxious, and finally couldn't help but point out the most obvious key at the moment.

He stood up, but closed his eyes again, as if choosing to rest quietly, but in fact his mind was wandering in the void.

Even though he is chatting with himself at the moment, who knows what his mind is on.

Xi is well aware of her elder sister's methods.

In the beginning, when everyone was being nagged by the nagging and looked miserable, the eldest sister often had a look of not caring about anything. Her calmness made people admire her very much - until the filter was broken.

Although there is still no trace to be found so far, there is no way to really catch him.

But after everyone has a comprehensive and clear enough understanding of each other's abilities, someone's almost "out-of-body" behavior of skipping classes is no longer a secret.

After that, Ling had to avoid Shu like the other brothers and sisters. Not to mention what happened next, at least this guy was not listening attentively during the conversation - everyone had their own concerns.

"That's right, but I didn't hide it, Xiao Xi, why do you have to pretend to reveal the truth?"

This is true.

Your sister's ability is enough to allow her to "wander" without any characteristics, so she is said to be traceless. Even Shu has no temper. If your sister intends to hide, her ability to trace the cause and effect cannot give a conclusion.

Closing your eyes on purpose is already a clear indication.

That's why Xi encouraged herself in her heart again and again to accept the other party's "invitation".

Honestly, she didn't want to get involved in this at all.

She has kept it a secret until now, pretending that nothing had happened and trying her best to avoid mentioning it in front of your elder sister, but your elder sister doesn't look for your elder brother, doesn't go to Sister Shu's, and even less wants to eat hotpot with Nian.

He just lay on the floor here, so that Nian was "driven" out - Nian went to live in Ling's single dormitory, which made Xi quite happy at first.

But these few days.

He didn't drink, didn't talk much, just stood there.

Occasionally, a glance at this side would make Xi, who still had some orders to fulfill after the doujinshi exhibition, startled.

It can be said that the frog finally realized that the water temperature was wrong at this point.

This is clearly a clear indication that I want to chat with her! But why me? !

Naturally, he couldn't utter this sad and angry question. At least Xi, who had been pretending not to see it, didn't dare to ask it so directly.

People who have had guilty consciences are not slow at all when they really encounter evil.

Only I know this sign...

The words that had been engraved suddenly came to mind.

But even though she knew it clearly, she still tried to escape.

I don't want to answer it, I don't want to start this topic. It will cause visible trouble and awkwardness, and it might even destroy my impression of my elder sister again!
Judging from the contents of the many physical romance comics on her bookshelf, Xi once thought that she could hold on until her elder sister finally became disappointed and looked for someone else.

but--

She stopped drinking!
The world is finally going to end.

The second brother finally couldn't hold back his years.

I guess we can all reunite at Baizao in Beijing tonight...

With such a sad mood, Xi finally decided to become a hero to save everyone.

As for being moved by the elder sister's persistence, I felt that I really couldn't just ignore her request for help...

Let’s not talk about this!
