Chapter 9 Departure(1/2)

Not long after Sun Jiang withdrew, the four of them received new prompts.

The three people who are still in the team receive:-

What Sun Jiang received was:—

The poetic message is a curse result.

Sun Jiang disappeared.

Xu Wang, Wu Sheng, and Kuang Jinxin watched his figure become shallower and shallower, and eventually disappeared. The place where he had sat was empty, as if he was not that person.

The air in the cave solidified, as if it was frozen rapidly, and it was completely chilling.

"Has he bounced back to reality or..." Kuang Jinxin spoke out, not daring to say the word behind.

Returning to reality means liberation. If a person is completely gone, it is an extinction in another sense. Two types of guesses are: one thought heaven and one thought hell.

The lonely ship can never stand on the shore.

Xu Wang silently recited the sentence he had just seen on Sun Jiang's arm in his heart. His heart slowly moved down, which was really not like the good news of sending someone home.

"He didn't return to reality, but he didn't disappear," Wu Sheng said suddenly.

Xu Wang instinctively disbelief and glanced at him squintly: "Do you know again?"

"I don't think you can guess everything. I have logical reasoning." Wu Sheng shrugged, the Yun Danfengqing on his face formed a sharp contrast with the concerns of his teammates.

"Then what did you think of?" Xu Wang rolled his eyes and rolled his eyes, but it was strange that the clouds in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

Wu Sheng no longer kept him in a silence: "Choose 'renewal'."

Xu Wangxin was unwilling to do so and was slow in his movements. Kuang Jinxin, who was listening carefully, did not hesitate to do it.

Soon, the same list of candidates for recruitment appeared on both of them—

1/23 Sun Jiang [Invitation]

1/23 An Peng [Invitation]

1/23 Bai Haichuan [Invitation]

1/23…

There were at least twenty or thirty people in a series of names, and all the results were 1/23 in sync with them. Except for Sun Jiang, who had formed the team, the rest of the order was based on the first alphabet of the surname.

"So many people are in the 'owl'?" Kuang Jinxin didn't expect, "Why didn't we meet any of us? And why are they all alone and not team up?"

Confirmation that Sun Jiang is still safe made Xu Wang relieved. Hearing this, he patted the lower Jinxin's head with a funny look: "Since it is an alternative list, all the people listed must be single. If there is a team member in it, it is not called invitation, but poaching."

Kuang Jinxin: "But we haven't met any team or not?"

"Uh, the person who withdraws from the team may disappear temporarily like Sun Jiang, and the other teams..." Xu Wang tilted his head and thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "It must be a fate but no one, and I missed it all with us!"

Kuang Jinxin frowned in embarrassment, as if he wanted to believe it, but he really couldn't convince himself: "Is that a coincidence..."

Wu Sheng couldn't stand it and glanced at Xu Wang: "If you don't know, just say you don't know. Don't take other people's children to run wildly on the wrong road."

The three of them did not invite any teammates in the end. The attitude of the invitees to northern Shaanxi was unknown, not to mention that the three of them had not reached an agreement.

At about five o'clock, the bad sound that bubbled from time to time rang in my ears-

[Owl: Baby~ It's dawn, I'll send you home.]

The three popped up, but four people gathered together.

Sun Jiang was also surprised.

After briefly exchanging information, the three of them realized that after Sun Jiang disappeared, they appeared in another same place, the same cave, the same ice waterfall, but there was no one else. Later, he returned to the cave and sat down until five o'clock.

Just like the four people on a mahjong table were originally divided into two tables, the mahjong on each table was still the same mahjong, but one table was missing one, one table was missing three, and the two tables were in different rooms and they could not meet each other.

Kuang Jinxin’s problem of “why never meet other teams or others” seems to be able to explain it by applying this mahjong theory – indeed everyone is in the “owl” and may even face the same bear and the same idiom guessing, but the rooms are different and independent of each other.

This time they were greeted by Willow Yin Park, which was only four or five hundred meters away from the Qingnian Lake Park last time. It was completely consistent with the location of the ice waterfall and cave in the "owl", which once again confirmed Wu Sheng's inference about the "internal and external correspondence" of geographical location.

Sun Jiang waved to stop a taxi, said no more goodbye, and only got into the car, smiling at them through the window, as if he wanted to wave his hand, but in the end he just nodded.

The taxi drove away and eventually disappeared at the end of the street, hiding in the darkness before sunrise.

Under the street light at the entrance of the park, three young men with a cool breeze were speechless for a moment.

A wide fallen leaf swept up by the wind blew on the back of Xu Wang's head. Xu Wang raised his hand reflexively and patted it. The dried leaves whined under his palm.

Xu Wang grabbed the dead leaves speechlessly, and felt even more upset: "Okay, don't stand stupidly, go home!"

"Everything goes back to my home" is omitted as the word "going home". The speaker is unintentional, but it makes the listener feel intimate as "going back to my home". It is very wonderful, like a slight warm wind in the cold morning.

It’s still the living room of Xu Wang’s house, the sofa, and the chair.

As soon as Kuang Jinxin sat down, he shouted loudly: "Brother Xu, I have decided to go to northern Shaanxi with you!"

Xu Wang almost fell from the chair and looked at Wu Sheng again. When the other party saw that Kuang Jinxin's expression was not much better than that of himself. He had always been straightforward and neat, even confirmed again: "Have you really thought about it?"

Kuang Jinxin looked at Wu Sheng calmly and nodded vigorously without hesitation: "I have thought about it. If I don't figure it out, I have no intention of doing an internship. No, it should be said that there is such a thing hanging over me, and I can't calm down anything I do."

Wu Sheng was unmoved: "What should I do if I was internship appraisal?"

Xu Wang silently gave a thumbs up to his classmates in his heart.

A hot mind is the patent of young teenagers, but as adults, even if they cannot be a positive role model, don’t add fuel to the fire, otherwise no matter who the child is cheated, they will be a sin.

Kuang Jinxin obviously didn't expect Wu Sheng to think so comprehensively. He was stunned for a while before touching his head embarrassedly: "Don't worry about the internship appraisal. Actually... that...oh, let me tell you the truth. The owner of this teahouse is a distant relative of my family. According to family generation, he has to call me uncle."

The unexpected "character relationship" made Wu Sheng and Xu Wang both stunned.

"Actually, I have to go home to help after graduation, and there is no need to find a job. Our school does not mandate that every graduate must have an internship appraisal. However, my senior year has no classes, and my classmates are looking for a job and taking the postgraduate entrance examination, all of them are working hard. I don't want to be idle every day, so I just called my home and said casually that I wanted to find a part-time job and experience the society. As a result, my second uncle and sister-in-law found me an internship unit the next day..."

The shame of "traveling the back door" made classmate Kuang's voice and head lower and lower.

Xu Wang cared more about another thing. He was talking about calling "home", but responding to "second uncle and sister-in-law"...

"Brother Xu," Kuang Jinxin's sudden loud voice interrupted Xu Wang's thoughts. He raised his head again, and repeated his decision with the unique insimplicity and determination of the young man, "I'll go with you!"

"Okay." This time Wu Sheng didn't hesitate anymore.

After the incorporation of Kuang Jinxin, Wu Sheng naturally turned his attention to Xu Wang: "Where are you?"

Xu Wang turned his face away and looked at the stars outside the window.

Wu Sheng got up and walked around the coffee table, came to the direction he looked up, blocking his sight with his height advantage: "Why don't you speak?"

Xu Wang had no choice but to look at the other party's handsome face, and he was slow and solemn like a wise man: "I'm thinking."

Wu Sheng choked his chest with an old mouthful of blood: "What's there to think about? You don't need an internship appraisal, and you didn't take care of your family."

Xu Wang and his two old blood hit their minds: "Do you don't need respect for single dogs?"

"What does this have to do with respect or not?" Wu Sheng could not understand Xu Wang's brain circuit. "Being single means having less concern, and you and I are the same. As the saying goes, 'Single dogs without a house or car, just say a roar when you say it'."

Xu Wang: "...Does the United States speak Chinese?"

Wu Sheng: "Hmm?"

Xu Wang: "Or why don't you come from so many jokes!!!"

"Taking it for granted" is the second biggest complaint in Wu Sheng except for "pretending to show off". I don't know how many classmates were tortured by him back then. This personality sounds good, "I think we should all think like this", and the plain words are "How can you think differently from me? You are so strange."

Although the facts prove that Wu Sheng’s thinking is fine most of the time and is also the best solution, this kind of pure rational thinking that is too simple and rough really makes people want to beat him.

Even if you think a little bit more, you can say something nice and obedient!

The moon sets and the sun rises, and the sky outside the window is gradually brightening.

Kuang Jinxin looked at Wu Sheng who was "taken for granted" and then looked at Xu Wang who was "thoughtful" and his intuition was better to be the onlookers.

Xu Wang had long ignored his classmates. Any decision was weighed by multiple factors. He was now focusing on calculating the scores of each factor.

Go or not?

Work accounts for 5 points.

Safety accounts for 3 points.

Spend (money) accounts for 1 point.

Wu Sheng...

Xu Wang glanced at the guy.

91 points.

Depend on!

Xu Wang made a decision in his heart, but he couldn't give in: "I'll try it out if I ask for leave," he raised his eyebrows at Wu Sheng and added half a sentence, "Don't hold too much hope."

Wu Sheng looked "I am not very satisfied": "You are just not determined enough, so if you can't ask for a leave, just quit... Oh, please kick me gently!"

"I was kicked" put a stop to the discussion of whether to leave or not.

The missing fruit knife was finally found on the ground beside Xu Wang's bed.

At that time, Jin Xin had already left. Wu Sheng was holding a notebook in the living room to check the exact positioning of the new coordinates. Xu Wangze came to the bedroom to change into a work suit. As a result, he looked down inadvertently while wearing a tie and looked at him.

Wu Sheng, who was finally allowed to enter the bedroom, took the fruit knife, fiddled with it for a few times, and analyzed: "Maybe it wasn't dropped. If you are sure to put it in your pocket, it is likely that the 'owl' is not allowed to enter with a weapon of destruction."
