Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After signing the contract and paying the rent, Lu Yuan got the room key card.
After the lady left, Lu Yuan took a look at the time. It was already past six in the evening.
It took a long time to look at a few houses.
Lu Yuan looked at Li Qinghe and said with a smile,”
“Sister Qinghe, let’s go get something to eat first, then we’ll go back and pack our luggage. We’ll move in today.”
Li Qinghe asked,”…Why are you in such a hurry? You’re moving in today?”
She was thinking that she could at least stay there for the night and not have to rush. She didn’t expect her good brother to be in such a hurry. Then, wouldn’t she have to rush to the slums tonight?
How troublesome.
Lu Yuan said with a serious face,”
“Of course. After all, the slums are a little dangerous. It’s better to move in as soon as possible.”
“Since that’s the case,” Li Qinghe said with a smile, “I’ll listen to you, brother Yuan.”
“Then let’s go eat first.”
The location of the new house was very good. Although it was a distance away from the bustling Jiuhu shopping center, there was a large shopping mall nearby.
......
There were many places to eat.
As time was of the essence, Lu Yuan brought Li Qinghe to find a house to have a simple meal before returning to the slums.
It was already past seven o’clock when he returned to his rented apartment in the slums.
Lu Yuan glanced at Li Qinghe, who had opened the door, and said, “Big sister Qinghe, do you need my help to pack your things?”
Li Qinghe was taken aback. Then, a charming smile appeared on her face as she looked at Lu Yuan strangely.”
“Little brother Yuan, women have a lot of private things. Are you going to help me pack up too?”
“…Forget it, I’ll go pack my things.”
Lu Yuan turned around and returned to his room.
After Li Qinghe returned to her room, she took out the encrypted black cube communicator.
After she operated it, the projection of Benjamin appeared on the cube.
“My Lord! Do you have any orders?”
“I’ll be back a little later tonight,” Li Qinghe said indifferently. “All of you should be prepared. Don’t let any clues slip by.”
Benjamin was stunned, “Huh? Is my Lord being held up by something?”
Li Qinghe glanced at him coldly. “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t be asking.”
“Yes!”
Benjamin was shocked and did not dare to ask more.
After putting away the cube, Li Qinghe rubbed her forehead helplessly.
If she had known earlier, she would have caused an accident and treated it as if she was dead.
This way, she didn’t have to move so far away and it was so troublesome.
However, if she really created the illusion of death, little brother Yuan would probably be very sad, right?
There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Forget it, if it’s troublesome, then let it be troublesome.
Li Qinghe stopped thinking about it and started packing.
…
Lu Yuan also returned to his room to pack his things.
He had very few things, only three sets of white clothes, an old notebook, a worn-out quilt and bed sheet, and a few textbooks.
After all the calculations, only the laptop was worth about two to three hundred Yuan.
Because he usually only used his laptop to log into the battle network to search for information, Lu Yuan had no intention of changing his laptop since it was still usable.
Other than a few textbooks, Lu Yuan planned to throw away the rest of the things.
After packing up, Lu Yuan knocked on Li Qinghe’s door.”
“Sister Qinghe, are you done?”
“Immediately, wait a moment.”
Li Qinghe’s voice rang out, and not long after, the door to her room opened.
Li Qinghe smiled. “I’ve already packed my things.”
“Where are they?”
Lu Yuan looked inside curiously.
Seeing Lu Yuan’s expression, Li Qinghe found it a little funny.
She pursed her lips and moved aside, revealing a large paper box and a suitcase.
Lu Yuan took a look and found that there were not many things. At least for a girl, it was very little.
“I’ll take it,” Lu Yuan smiled.
He walked over and put the large cardboard box and luggage into the battle ruin space.
Li Qinghe was a little surprised. “Is this the realm of genetic warriors? It is amazing. It’s so convenient. ”
Lu Yuan smiled.”It’s indeed much more convenient with this. Let’s go.”
The two of them left the rented house. Lu Yuan looked back at the closed door.
After living here for a year, he was finally bidding farewell to his life in the slums.
It was already past eight o’clock when they left the neighborhood. The streets were already deserted at this time.
Perhaps it was because of the two previous explosions, but even the hooligans and a small number of ordinary people had disappeared.
Lu Yuan called for an unmanned hover car. The two of them got into the car and arrived at the newly rented community, purple bamboo community.
“Sister Qinghe, shall we go and buy some bedsheets and toiletries first?”
After alighting from the car, Lu Yuan looked at Li Qinghe and smiled.
“What?” Li Qinghe was taken aback and hesitated. “But I can still use mine now …”
“To celebrate us leaving the slums and having a new life, replace these things with new ones.” Lu Yuan said with a smile. Without further explanation, he brought Li Qinghe to the shopping mall.
It was 10 O’ clock when they strolled around the mall. They bought a variety of things before returning to their newly rented house.
“Master, welcome back.”
The White intelligent robot stood by the door. When it saw Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe return, it bowed elegantly.
Lu Yuan took a look at the room. It was clean and tidy.
Before no one lived in it, this intelligent robot would clean the room every day. Before Lu Yuan left, he had ordered it to clean the room again, so it could be said to be very clean.
“Well done, Jeff.”
“This is what I should do.” The robot Jeff saluted.
Lu Yuan looked at Li Qinghe and said with a smile, “You see, with Jeff here, at least we don’t have to clean the room, right?”
“It’s quite convenient, but the rent is too expensive. ”
Seeing Li Qinghe’s heartache, Lu Yuan smiled.
However, he could understand. After all, Li Qinghe had been living in the slums all this time. 20000 was already a huge sum of money.
Lu Yuan thought about himself. When he had just awakened, the government had given him a subsidy of 5000 maple coins. Even he felt that it was a huge sum of money.
It was just that after selling more materials, Lu Yuan had a lot of savings, so he didn’t care much about these.
No matter what kind of life it was, one had to slowly adapt to it.
Lu Yuan believed that it wouldn’t take long for Li Qinghe to get used to it.
Lu Yuan’s room was the master bedroom, while Li Qinghe’s room was the secondary bedroom.
Lu Yuan first placed Li Qinghe’s luggage and newly bought daily necessities in the second bedroom, and then asked Jeff to help her pack. After that, he returned to the master bedroom.
He tidied up his things quickly and placed a black optical computer that looked like a motorcycle helmet on the desk.
After wearing it, one could connect to the internet, browse information, and even play virtual games.
Lu Yuan touched his slightly matte helmet and sighed.
It was a virtual game. Lu Yuan had been looking forward to it before he transmigrated.
It was a pity that the virtual reality technology on earth was not mature enough.
The virtual reality technology here was also obtained from the land of origin.
From all aspects, the land of origin had greatly increased the development speed of many civilizations in the universe.
It was already eleven o’clock at night when she was done packing.
Lu Yuan looked at the light door. It had not been completely repaired.
Lu Yuan was not surprised. The higher the cultivation level, the longer one could stay in the land of origin. However, the time needed to repair the light door would also be longer.
Looking at the progress, Lu Yuan felt that he would only be able to enter once a day.
Looking at the time, he would be able to go in by tomorrow afternoon.
However, at the thought of the auction, Lu Yuan decided to go in a little later. The morning of the day after tomorrow was the most suitable time.
The time inside was just enough for him to participate in the auction.
Lu Yuan’s room had a separate bathroom, so he washed up directly in the room.
However, Lu Yuan still heard movement outside the door. It was the sound of Li Qinghe entering the bathroom.
Not long after, Li Qinghe arrived at Lu Yuan’s door and knocked.
“Big sister Qinghe? What’s the matter?”
Lu Yuan was about to open the door when Li Qinghe’s voice rang out. “It’s nothing. I’m going to sleep. Good night.”
Lu Yuan was taken aback. He did not expect Li Qinghe to even tell him about her sleep.
However, on second thought, he realized that she had just moved to a new place, so she might lack a sense of security.
After all, she was a girl.
At the thought of this, Lu Yuan smiled and replied, “Good night, sister Qinghe.”
After that, Lu Yuan heard Li Qinghe’s acknowledgment. Then, he heard the sound of the door closing.
Li Qinghe returned to her room, and her body transformed. A set of pitch-black leather armor covered Li Qinghe’s body.
Li Qinghe glanced in the direction of Lu Yuan’s room. After some thought, she decided not to use spiritual force.
She quietly opened the window and jumped down from the 15th floor.
Li Qinghe’s body descended. When she was close to the ground, she flipped over and landed lightly. Then, she glanced at the window upstairs and blended into the shadows, disappearing.
…
In an ordinary residential building in the slums.
In a suite on the 20th floor, a thin man who had been sleeping on the bed suddenly got up.
His movement woke the woman beside him.
The woman looked at the thin man in confusion and whispered, “My dear, what’s wrong?”
The thin man didn’t say anything and walked out of the room.
“My dear?” the woman was confused.
She rubbed her eyes and looked at the back of the thin man. She stood up and followed him out of the room.
Soon, the woman saw the thin man squatting by the living room and opening a black leather suitcase.
She remembered that this black leather suitcase was brought back by the thin man when he went home.
When she asked what was inside, the thin man didn’t answer and only smiled strangely.
Now, she finally knew what was inside.
The skinny man took out a black metal cylinder with red, yellow, and blue buttons on it.
“My dear?”
The woman looked at the skinny man with some uncertainty. She felt that this thing was a little strange.
The thin man still did not speak. He reached out and pressed the buttons in order of blue, red, and yellow.
With a beeping sound, a countdown timer appeared on the metal cylinder.
5.
4.
The thin man turned his head and looked at the woman.
His face was extremely pale, and his eyes were filled with fear. Tears fell silently from the corners of his eyes, but the corners of his mouth gradually rose, revealing a subtle smile.
When the woman saw this scene, a chill ran up her spine and her scalp went numb.
Her face was filled with fear.
Boom!
Before the woman could do anything, a deafening explosion sounded. Flames spewed out and swallowed her and the thin man in an instant.
