Chapter 50: compression, night talk, sense of imbalance

After dinner, Feihong Dong is painting and Xiaochi Chi is watching the recorded skating video on Feihong Dong's computer.

It was snowing lightly outside, but the heat was on so high inside that ice flakes were forming a pale silver frost on the windows. Inside, the oven roars, and from a distance, I can imagine the tart gradually emitting a tantalizing egg aroma and puffing up the golden crisp edges in the baking pan.

Xiaochi Chi looks up from his computer and turns his eyes to look.

Feihong Dong, who was buried in a pile of sketches and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, put down the blue pencil in his hand, raised his hand and touched a tear drop under his eye, as if he was thinking about something, and pondered for a long time before reaching for the eraser.

Xiaochi Chi watched his movements, concentrating on something less than normal.

061 felt that Xiaochi Chi looked a bit off: "What's wrong?"

Xiaochi Chi turned his eyes back, naturally changing the subject: "Winter Song's feelings for Sifan Lou, eight years of catching up plus five years of love, a total of thirteen years."

After doing simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, Xiaochi Chi raised a very real problem: "If each world is so long, when I finish the task, once I go back, in the hospital bed, when I open my eyes, said a "I", boom, directly died of old age, then who can I talk to? "

061 couldn't help but laugh: "Didn't you notice? There is a kind of card in the warehouse, called 'compression card'."

Xiaochi Chi really noticed it, but it was the most expensive of the premium cards.

20 points of remorse, or 40 points of goodwill, can be exchanged for a low-level compression card.

There is a reason why these things are priced high. But when I was going through the warehouse, Xiaochi Chi would at most glance at the introduction label and make a simple record in my mind for these expensive items.

In Xiaochi Chi's opinion, it is a very unaffordable move to blindly kryptonize premium cards when you don't have enough money on hand.

And the same tempting good things if you can not get it for the time being, even to look at it is also in vain.

Xiaochi Chi clicked on another skating competition video while continuing to discuss the matter with 061: "When I read the introduction, I thought 'compression' meant item compression."

"...... refers to time." 061 said, "After the card is used, it will affect the time flow rate of the whole world. For example, if you use a low-level compression card, the time flow rate of the whole world will become six times faster. The duration of the acceleration is not limited, but the card is disposable. Once the user decides to stop this acceleration, it is automatically invalidated. If you want to use it again, you need to redeem it again."

Xiaochi Chi translated this as, "One section is better than six?"

061 laughs: "You can understand it that way."

Many of the hosts that 061 has taken, gritting their teeth and saving their strength, refusing to spend points on other redemption items, preferring to grovel and curry favor with the target of the mission, in order to redeem such cards as soon as possible after brushing up on their goodwill, so as to complete the long role-playing game as soon as possible and return to their lives.

But spare the experienced 061 is also the first time to experience such a long run of feelings that lasted thirteen years, and surprisingly also included the teenage admiration period.

This means that Xiaochi Chi will not be able to find contact with the subject of the assignment for a long time.

And whether it's a brush with goodwill or remorse, you have to get in touch with the object of the mission to do so.

......061 only smacked this thing a little bit, and realized the disgusting part of it.

Xiaochi Chi did not react, lowering his head and calculating for a while, then looked up and said, "In short, if you want to speed up skipping this world, you need at least 20 points of remorse, right?"

061: "Hmm."

He clicked on the warehouse again and went to take inventory of its contents while asking, "...... or 40 good sense points?"

061: "...... hmm."

As 061 grew vaguely anxious, Xiaochi Chi simply said, "Hold on, we can win."

When he speaks, he looks light, but there is light in his eyes.

That glow does not belong to Winter Song, but to the soul in this shell, more tantalizing than any winks.

061 haven't had time to figure out what the slight movement in his heart is all about, he heard his words change: "...... Holy shit."

061: "What happened to ......?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "We forgot one thing."

He took a photo out of storage that showed old colors and creases.

The photo is of Changqing Shen and Erpu He from the previous world, and the smiles in the photo are formal and gentle.

Xiaochi Chi wonders if he has now regained the ability to laugh without fear.

But now that he's in the next world, he's afraid he won't be able to find a way to return this old photo.

Xiaochi Chi puts the photos back in storage: "If I had torn up that Kai Zhou stamp set at my hospital bedside back then, I guess I would have received a dozen premium zip cards."

061 Thinking about it, I think so.

However, he did not want Xiaochi Chi to think narrowly, so he held back his regret and said, "It's okay. It's all in the past."

"I was just saying that." To my surprise, Xiaochi Chi said in a natural manner, "I left that stamp collection to Changqing Shen on purpose."

"...... eh?"

Changqing Shen and Yuan Cheng have different situations and personalities," says Xiaochi Chi. For Changqing Shen, he needed an outlet that he could control. Leaving him a stamp collection was the most intuitive and easiest way to tell him to let it out."

Kai Zhou killed Changqing Shen's Erpu He, and Changqing Shen gave him a fragmented stamp collection, which was barely a fair trade.

Xiaochi Chi sums it up succinctly, "To put it bluntly, it's all about giving him a good time."

061: "Can ......" he can understand Xiaochi Chi's thoughts, but thinking of Xiaochi Chi's loss in this world, he can't help but feel a little sorry for him.

Xiaochi Chi, without any extra feeling of regret, asked 061: "Do you feel good?"

061 brainstormed that scene and truthfully said, "...... seems pretty cool."

Xiaochi Chi said cheerfully, "That's not enough."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Feihong Dong over there looked like he heard something funny and suddenly burst out laughing.

He held a pen, and his already playful eyebrows were decorated with a smile, making him look even more vivid and relatable.

Xiaochi Chi immediately switched to winter song mode and looked at him in confusion.

Feihong Dong laughed and then waved his hand, "A funny thing came to mind. Did it bother you?"

Xiaochi Chi shakes his head.

Feihong Dong stood up, drew a wet towel and wiped his hands that had been rubbed black by graphite: "Have an egg tart. You won't gain weight by eating only one."

Xiaochi Chi said, "Good."

Then, he watched Feihong Dong enter the kitchen, and there was some inseparable emotion in his eyes.

And Feihong Dong couldn't help but laugh softly as soon as he stepped into the kitchen.

...... Xiaochi Chi is really an easy person to turn to for a good mood.

And the following Monday, Xiaochi Chi did basic flexibility, speed drills and regulation graphics exercises before practicing jumps in a small corner on the sidelines.

This time he tried one of the six basic movements, the Axel jump.

He attempted a week and a half spin, succeeded once and landed perfectly.

Then it was two and a half weeks.

When he successfully landed again, he vaguely heard the "hell" emotion from the corner.

Xiaochi Chi pretended not to hear, took the compliment in stride and started skating on the ice again.

Jump, drop ice, another ice splash.

The young man's body is like a butterfly of great beauty under the illumination, casting a silhouette under the translucent ice layer is soft and moving.

Although this time 3A did not do a perfect job, but the teenager did not look much chagrin, sliding in place in a circle, while moving their bodies at will, breaking their legs over the shoulders, or stretching out their arms, as if in search of feeling.

He was helping Winter Song to adjust his mind.

The previous Winter Song was arrogant and subdued, so even though he had great looks and excellent grades, there was still a group of viewers who were very disgusted with him, believing that he was pushing too hard and full of heart trying to win.

Now, his gaze is still the same melancholy stubbornness that characterizes Winter Song, but with a touch of Xiaochi Chi's carelessness.

Xiaochi Chi is not afraid to show her age-appropriate excellence, fearing to attract suspicion and attention, but she does not hide or suppress it, showing her excellence and the experience she has accumulated in the field for more than ten years to everyone.

--Don't need to be identified and approved by anyone, Lao Tzu is a genius.

Standing by the ice are the coach who last reprimanded Winter Song for trying to make a big jump without learning to walk, Winter Song's coach, and the head coach of the skating team.

The former is the one who sent out the "hell" emotion just now.

Compared to the former's nonchalance, the head coach did stare at Winter Song for a long time.

He had observed this child before and judged that although his standard was superb among children of his age, his personality was not good, too impatient and adventurous, too eager to prove himself, and he had to be left to polish and polish more, and could not be sent to the field in a hurry.

Otherwise, once he achieves something, he will either be complacent or hungry for more victories.

Such a vicious circle can never be good for his growth.

But since the provincial coach came last week and talked to him twice, when I saw him again today, it was as if he had been transformed.

That scattered with a little serious energy is the glow of confidence.

The head coach asked, "He hasn't played in an official major tournament yet, has he?"

Coach Wintergrove nodded with slight surprise, "Well nah."

The head coach said, "Sign up Winter Song for the National Junior Figure Skating Series in three months and give him a try."

As soon as the competition list was posted, Winter Song immediately became the talk of the school.

...... only gave the school three spots, and how could anyone not be surprised that someone with almost zero experience in competition and only a few regional events would be participating in the highest ranked and most highly regarded event among junior skaters nationwide.

Look to the winter song of the eyes have xin envy, there is a longing, but more is suppressed jealousy fire.

Xiaochi Chi and 061 deceitful: "Hee hee hee."

061: "......" silly.

Xiaochi Chi: "I like the way they look at me and can't get rid of me."

061: "......" This child is in fact a heart hang or childish.

But 061 always has in mind the matter of raiding the object of the mission.

According to the current data, Sifan Lou's initial favorable value for Xiaochi Chi is not low, with 50 points, but the regret value is pressed to zero.

As of now, Xiaochi Chi has no intention of going to Sifan Lou in advance to get in touch with him.

And no contact means no change in values; and no change in values, Xiaochi Chi must tarry in this world.

Xiaochi Chi didn't seem to care about this at all, and called Feihong Dong as soon as he heard the happy news.

He gave Xiaochi Chi a cell phone when he went back last week.

The first and only number stored in this phone is Feihong Dong's.

After learning the good news, Feihong Dong sent him chicken soup with mushrooms as a token of appreciation.

Xiaochi Chi sitting in the car purring and drinking chicken soup, collected the sharp edges belonging to the winter song, also put away Xiaochi Chi's eyes, lowered his head to reveal a shaggy black hair swirl, look very good to touch.

...... At this time he was just a kid far from home, pursuing his dreams.

His quiet look was so good that it was heartbreaking, and Feihong Dong couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his hair: "Well done."

Xiaochi Chi shook, and some of the chicken soup in the soup spilled out.

Seeing his reaction Feihong Dong immediately regretted it.

But to his surprise, Xiaochi Chi just wiped his mouth and continued to drink without changing his face.

061, Feihong Dong : "......" Huh.

I thought you couldn't even let a stranger shake your hand before.

061 is also with him for a long time to make some intimate behavior, when the first contact, Xiaochi Chi is not also vomiting a lot.

061 frowned slightly, and a subtle sense of imbalance arose in his heart.
