Arknights is too real, right?

In Yuan Zhang's eyes, Xia Feng had been missing for three whole days, so this reaction was considered normal.

Zhang Yuan raised his hand and threw away the broom, looking at Xia Feng with a complicated expression and asked.

"Where have you been these past few days? When I knock on your door, no one comes, and when I call you, the phone is turned off."

Xia Feng lowered his head expressionlessly.

"Sorry, something happened recently."

"Something happened? What happened? Do you owe a loan shark?"

"No, just don't ask."

Xia Feng obviously didn't want to talk too much with Zhang Yuan. His mind was not here at all.

Xia Feng sat down at the desk like a zombie, but Zhang Yuan obviously didn't want to let him go and immediately followed him and sat next to him.

"Xia Feng, do you know that if you don't come to school today, the teacher will call the police. Even if the teacher doesn't, I will."

Xia Feng lay on the table and muttered quietly.

"It's useless if you call the police. The police can't find me at all."

"What are you talking about?"

Zhang Yuan grabbed Xia Feng's shoulders and tried to pull him up from the table.

"Ouch, don't touch it!"

Zhang Yuan immediately let go of his hand, and then noticed the gauze wrapped under Xia Feng's collar.

"What did you do? Why are you injured? Were you hacked?"

"It's okay, don't ask, I don't want to talk now."

After saying this, Xia Feng lay on the desk again and fell into thinking.

At this time, the group of A-Zhai students in the classroom saw Xia Feng coming, and immediately crowded around him.

"Xia Feng, where have you been these days? By the way, let me tell you, I got the silver ash yesterday. Hehe, don't you envy me!"

"Xia Feng, have you passed the 4-10 raid? Do you want me to teach you? Don't worry, I guarantee you can pass even if you don't have a little cotton sheep, as long as you do as I say."

"Xia Feng, you must have used up all your energy when you drew cards last time. You looked like you lost your mind. You haven't seen the golden light since then, haha."

There was no way. Every time they showed off their cards in the classroom, although Xia Feng always scolded them for being stinky seals, everyone could see that there was real envy hidden in Xia Feng's eyes, which led to them always liking to run away. When I came to bask in the summer wind, I would have felt uncomfortable without being exposed to the sun for a day. Now, after three full days, I must have a good time in the sun.

"Xia Feng, let me tell you, hey, look at me and talk to you."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Zhang Yuan stood up from his chair and scolded the students.

"Take care of yourself, you will know what to do day by day. Didn't you see that Xia Feng is in a bad mood today?"

As a good gay friend for many years, Zhang Yuan could naturally tell that Xia Feng was a little unusual today. This feeling was completely different from when Xia Feng's card was drawn before. He could tell that Xia Feng might have really encountered What happened?

The classmate who was scolded by Zhang Yuan smiled shamelessly.

"Let's chat, we haven't seen each other for several days."

"You're talking about nothing but winter melon skin, get out of here!"

"Tch, boring."

When Zhang Yuan was arguing with others, Xia Feng kept his chin expressionless, as if his soul had left his body.

noon.

At the same time and place, Xia Feng was sitting on the rooftop in a daze with a straw in his mouth.

The bright sun at noon shone on Xia Feng's dumbfounded face, making him feel the warmth he had not seen for a long time. He couldn't help but think that in the world he lived in now, he would not freeze to death even without a fur coat.

However, at this moment, in another world in the same timeline, there are still people fighting for survival in the cold dead city.

After a while, Zhang Yuan found Xia Feng with two sausages.

"Xia Feng, why are you sitting under the sun? Come over here to a shady place."

"oh."

Xia Feng stood up mechanically, walked to Zhang Yuan and sat down against the wall.

Zhang Yuan handed a piece of grilled sausage in front of him and gestured for him to take it.

Xia Feng shook his head gently.

"I don't want to eat it, huh huh huh"

Zhang Yuan grabbed Xia Feng's mouth and stuffed the thick object into his mouth.

"Don't pretend to be serious with me here. I saw that you didn't even eat lunch. People are like iron rice and steel. No matter what happens, you have to eat."

Then, watching Xia Feng eat the sausage in small bites, Zhang Yuan finally wiped his hands with relief.

"Xia Feng, if you have any difficulties, just tell your brother. As long as I can help, I promise to help. But I have to agree on something first. I don't have any money now. I have spent it all in krypton gold, hehe."

If it was a normal Xia Feng, he would definitely be able to laugh and curse, but now he couldn't laugh.

Xia Feng raised his head and looked at the sky.

"Zhang Yuan, let me ask you a question."

"what is the problem?"

"Do you like the game Arknights?"

"Damn, why bother asking? I'm almost the second best person in the entire team. Half of my living expenses this month are going to drain the crew. Do you think I like it or not?"

Xia Feng's eyes showed a hint of confusion.

"Zhang Yuan, if a door to the world of Terra appeared in front of you now, would you choose to go in?"

Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he saw that Xia Feng didn't look like he was talking nonsense, so he thought about it carefully.

"Well, let me think about it. To be fair, I should choose to go in."

"Why?"

"Because I can meet the operators I like in that world."

"Then if you travel to the world of Terra and find that the sky in that world is gray and every land is full of despair, yes, you can indeed see your beloved operators, but the weak But you can't save them, because your existence has caused the historical direction of that world to deviate, but you can't change anything. At that time, what will you choose?"

A cloud covered the sun and cast the rooftop in shadow. Looking at Xia Feng's complicated expression, Zhang Yuan didn't understand anything at all.

But at the same time, he seemed to understand something.

Zhang Yuan followed Xia Feng's gaze and looked toward the sky.

"If nothing can change, then change yourself."

Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Xia Feng's eyes flashed.

"change yourself?"

Zhang Yuan nodded solemnly.

"Yes, if you change yourself enough to change the world, wouldn't everything be solved? Haha, this sounds difficult, but didn't you just say that there are important people in that world who need to be saved? If you have this reason to support yourself, then it won’t be that difficult to change the world.”

"But... I'm just an ordinary person, and the enemies in that world are real monsters."

During the conversation, Xia Feng had subconsciously changed "you" into "I".

Zhang Yuan grabbed Xia Feng's shoulders.

"Xia Feng, don't be bound by the identity of ordinary people. Ordinary people are not weak, because ordinary people have many things that monsters don't have. If you must defeat monsters, then learn to give up. The world is fair, and powerful power is Important things need to be exchanged. If you cannot defeat the monster, then you will become a monster, whether it is becoming a scientifically transformed human being, signing a contract with the devil, or unlocking an ancient forbidden technique, whatever method you use will be fine. , as long as you think that the price of gaining great power is far less heavy than saving important people, brother, then just do it."

Xia Feng was stunned. Zhang Yuan's words seemed to wake him up from his dream.

It turns out that he has never been ready to give up something. The worst thing he has been thinking about is death. However, death cannot change anything. The death of the weak is still powerless. If he wants to save important people, He should pay a price heavier than death, provided that he will not regret it.

Zhang Yuan's words seemed to be correct, but they were actually very reasonable. Looking at his serious expression, Xia Feng finally couldn't help but ask.

"Zhang Yuan, who did you hear these words from?"

Zhang Yuan touched his head and smiled.

"Ha, I saw it in a cartoon. I forgot which one it was. Hehe, how about it? It looks pretty cool when paired with my acting skills."

Xia Feng stood up with his head lowered, then raised his palm and swung it towards Zhang Yuan with all his strength.

Seeing that Xia Feng was about to hit him, Zhang Yuan immediately laughed and tried to avoid it.

"Snapped!"

Xia Feng's palm patted Zhang Yuan's shoulder steadily.

"Brother, thank you!"

night.

Xia Feng lay on the bed, his uneasiness and confusion disappeared from his face.

He raised his hand and touched his chest. In the inner pocket of his coat was a small syringe.

Yes, the syringe that Wei Na gave him was still on his body, but in Xia Feng's eyes, this was not only a syringe that could suppress ore disease, but a piece of trust.

This game isn't over yet,

No matter how incompetent he is now, no matter how weak he is now, he must go back, because this belongs to him alone - Arknights.

Close your eyes gently.

Xia Feng took a deep breath, threw the phone into the sky, and a firm voice came out of his mouth.

"Akunako!"
