Chapter 488: Qiao Mu Private High School

"Tell me about you two." Fang Dian couldn't help but laugh, while holding his face and taunting Lu Yizhan and Bai Liu, who were crouched in a row in front of him, "What can't we talk about properly, we have to fight, huh?"

"Two old men, one carrying a broom and the other waving a mop, fighting in front of the whole school, don't they feel ashamed? You think you're a kindergarten class?"

With their heads bowed, Bai Liu and Lu Yizhan both gave a united thump.

In a copy of the game, the npc's view the player's actions through a special filter, so that everything the player does makes sense to the npc's eyes.

For example, if a player suddenly kills another player, it may appear to the NPCs as a normal scuffle, whereas if a player is killed, the identity he has acquired in the copy will be removed without any problem, maintaining the normalcy of the game and allowing the NPCs in it to continue to function normally as well.

The students Liu Jiayi, Tang Erda, Bai Jiamu Bai Yi who have now been cleared from the copy should be temporary transfers in the eyes of the copy NPCs.

These rules are known to all players who enter the game, but ......

Bai Liu swept his eyes down to the whip he held in his hand, and then to the heavy sword Lu Yizhan had hidden behind him with reddened ears, and his eyes gave a subtle pause.

When he thought of his own whip being rationalized by the system in the eyes of the NPCs as a mop and Lu Yizhan's heavy sword being rationalized as a broom, wouldn't the scene where he rushed up to the stands with his whip be seen by all the student NPCs as flinging a mop up against Lu Yizhan.

Lu Yizhan pulled out his broomstick from behind him and took to the stage to spar with him, saying some very cheesy lines as he did so ......

This is too shameful.

Lu Yizhan calmly released his heavy sword, Bai Liu calmly put away his bone whip, and the two men looked at Fang Dian as if nothing had happened.

Lu Yizhan, whose right half of his face was covered in blood, laughed loudly and grabbed Bai Liu's shoulder: "Haha, it's nothing serious, it's just Bai Liu and I getting angry after losing a game."

The skin on his collar was bruised and his shirt was bleeding down, Bai Liu nodded with a calm face, "Normal friend to friend, nothing out of the ordinary, don't worry."

Mu Sicheng, crouching nearby, roared in his mind: look at you all, who'd believe you!

Would a normal sparring match between friends nearly cut my neck as an irrelevant person!

"It's good that you guys made up." Fang Dian nodded and clapped her hands as she got up, she smiled a little, "I'll go get your purchases back, I got two popsicles in addition to the drinks."

I can't believe anyone would actually believe that!!!

mu sicheng roars inwardly in devastation!!!

This must be because of the npc filter at work right!

As soon as Fang Dian turned his head, Lu Yizhan, who was crouching on the ground, instantly turned his gaze to the ground and lifted his hand to raise the heavy sword he had just put down.

Bai Liu held the bone whip in one hand and slid it downward against the blade of the heavy sword, while his knee bent straight against Lu Yizhan's left kick.

Both of them moved and reacted extremely fast, as if they had some kind of unspoken tacit understanding, and almost as soon as Fang Dian rose and turned his head, they struck silently, the heavy sword and the bone whip clashed in a huge spark.

Fang Dian walked over to the plastic bag she had just dumped, then turned her head, "It's a bit melted, are you still eating?"

Bai Liu and Lu Yizhan instantly reel in their weapons, both maintaining their previous positions, hooking shoulders. They look at Fang Dian in a friendly manner.

Lu Yizhan also smiled at Fang Dian and gave Bai Liu a strong pat on the shoulder, "Of course I'll eat what you bought!"

Mu Sicheng looked on, almost dumbfounded, as he watched Bai Liu and Lu Yizhan, who were outwardly peaceful and friendly, but had secretly exchanged several blows and were about to kill each other.

...... Is this fucking hypocrisy and acting from a top tactician?

"I only bought two popsicles, but they come in pairs, so we can share them among the four of us." Fang Dian took one out and handed it to Lu Yizhan, "Since you and Bai Liu have made up now, do you mind if you and Bai Liu share this one?"

"You've been friends for so long, don't get angry over a game you won or lost." Fang Dian looked into Lu Yizhan's eyes, his eyes curved and he smiled very lightly, " Bai Liu was brought up by you, and you are a bit older than him, so you are his brother."

"It's okay to let him win once in a while just to keep him entertained, right?"

Lu Yizhan is stunned for a moment as he slowly shifts his gaze to the popsicle Fang Dian hands him.

It was a paper wrapped, very cheap 50 cent popsicle, dripping down because it was melting, wrapped in two sticky popsicles that tasted like very cheap sugar water in your mouth.

The smell was familiar to Lu Yizhan and Bai Liu, and it was a smell that had stayed with them throughout their high school years.

--The taste of the cheapest popsicle in the kiosk.

Fang Dian handed the popsicle to Lu Yizhan, who was crouching on the ground, with an indescribable tenderness in her eyes as she reflected the bewildered Lu Yizhan.

"And don't be so afraid of losing to Bai Liu."

"It's just a game between friends, you lose to him and you can't lose anything away."

"Which time did Bai Liu actually win something from you?"

Lu Yizhan pauses for a moment as he takes the popsicle in Fang Dian's hand and rips open the paper wrapping to reveal two sticky, light white popsicles that are dripping water and melting.

The middle line of the popsicle is frozen together and can be broken apart with a gentle folding, but before it is broken apart it is very close together and looks exactly the same size, so it resembles two brothers, which is why some people call these popsicles "brothers' popsicles".

Lu Yizhan broke it off with a "chomp" and handed the other one to Bai Liu, who took it after a pause.

Two men, bruised and bloodied in their school uniforms, crouched in disarray by the chaos of the playground, one holding a popsicle stick in his left hand, the other in his right, biting it off with a single bite.

No one spoke, all biting into their popsicles in silence.

Lu Yizhan's eyes squinted as the early summer wind blew lightly past their foreheads, lifting their blood and dust-stained hair.

In so many worlds, only here, although he is facing the evil god next to him, whom he is going to supervise and kill, and worrying about this lonely and eccentric little brat every day, he is still so relaxed and comfortable, surrounded by only his ordinary girlfriend Fang Dian, his ordinary best friend Bai Liu, and he lives an ordinary life, and then dies an ordinary and happy death.

It was as if all the burdens, the games that had shattered him into pieces, had never existed.

Lu Yizhan also tried to think of why he was so relieved that this was clearly the last world line, but only just now did he understand.

--Because Bai Liu really treated it all as a normal game with him.

Game after game, match after match, ring after ring, Bai Liu had long ago accepted his layout, accepted that it was all a game between him, his friend with a heart of gold, and him.

If Bai Liu loses, he won't say a word, and if Bai Liu wins, he won't really do anything about it.

He was the one who was despicable and took advantage of Bai Liu's respect for the rules of the game, and his trust in him.

Lu Yizhan closes his eyes.

Fang Dian sat between them with a popsicle in her hand, biting into it, holding Lu Yizhan in one hand and Bai Liu in the other, and asking in a slurred voice, "I just gave one to the student next to me, Mu Sicheng, what are you squatting here talking about?"

"Talking about the game." Bai Liu chewed on his stick as he turned his head sideways and looked steadily at Fang Dian who was holding his shoulders, suddenly bringing up a subject, "Talking about whether there's any way in the world to win the game 100 percent of the time?"

"Not in that way." Fang Dian waved her hand and retorted without thinking.

"But you win every time." Bai Liu pointed out calmly, "Lu Yizhan and I have never beaten you."

Fang Dian replied bluntly, "Because I cheat."

"I'm the one who plays all the games with you guys, I've buried a lot of points in there that only I know about, it's the equivalent of me playing with a secret pass, how can you play me?"

Bai Liu and Lu Yizhan are both a meal.

"You can cheat?!" Lu Yizhan looked at Fang Dian in shock, "It's just a little game with us, do you have to cheat?

"See." Fang Dian spread her hands, "I'm taking advantage of this mentality and cheating as a matter of course, so you never win against me."

Bai Liu is at a standstill.

He'd thought many times about the reason Fang Dian kept beating him, but really never thought about it.

As Fang Dian said, he really didn't expect Fang Dian to be a cheater.

"Cheating is the easiest way to win a game, and it's better to make the rules of the game than to find the answers in the rules of the game to win the game." Fang Dian propped her face up as she took a bite of her popsicle and chewed it, shaking it lazily, "But you're all smart, and there's an important part of me that can beat you."

"What do you think is the best way to cheat in the world of gaming?" Fang Dian changed the subject.

Bai Liu asks directly, "What is it?"

Fang Dian rolled her eyes as she looked at Bai Liu with a smile in her eyes, "You find someone who simply can't let you lose the game, then use their trust in you to logically step on their emotional weakness for you and win the game."

"That's why I can always win you guys, it's just too easy to cheat and win you based on your trust in me."

Bai Liu is quiet, Lu Yizhan keeps his head down without saying a word.

"But then." Fang Dian turned her head, a lightness in her eyes as she hugged her knees and looked up at the azure sky, "In my opinion, winning or losing a game between friends doesn't hurt the relationship."

"At most, they will deliver each other to life and death."

"Oh yes." Fang Dian looked up as if suddenly remembering something, "I almost forgot, I came over to take a message for the headmaster."

Her expression suddenly froze, "You have been punished with confinement and toilet cleaning for allegedly fighting in public."
