Chapter 133: Chapter 128: Out of Work, But Not Dead

Xu Yingguang’s mouth twitched involuntarily.

Although it seemed like a good thing that his daughter no longer cared that much about the past incident, but! It also seemed like she now had even bigger problems!

Was Xiao Yi really going to be a curse on his daughter for a lifetime?

A sense of concern unavoidably rose in Xu Yingguang’s heart.

Xiao Yi, on the other hand, didn’t think too much. He just said whatever came to his mind.

However, it was only now that Xiao Yi realized, Xu Woshi’s family seemed to have some domestic issues she found hard to accept.

This made Xiao Yi sigh; he had suffered a lot in the past because he had no parents, so he thought that people with both a mother and a father would surely be happy.

But, through experiences over time, Xiao Yi had also come to realize that having parents didn’t guarantee happiness; everyone had their own sorrows and troubles.

Regardless of what one becomes, pain and distress are constant companions.

After giving it some thought, Xiao Yi realized that Xu Woshi hadn’t really done anything particularly treacherous.

Being with Xu Woshi, though, reminded Xiao Yi of the torments he’d experienced from teammates while playing video games in the past, which caused his blood pressure to rise.

But that was it.

This made Xiao Yi wonder if he was being too harsh on her.

After all, no matter how you look at it, she was still a minor—immature and prone to mistakes.

Whereas he was a mature and steady adult with an above-average IQ; there was no need to be excessively critical of a minor, after all, Xiao Yi had been a minor himself.

This made Xiao Yi remember the troubles he caused others when he was immature.

Although Xiao Yi felt he was now a qualified member of society and no longer tormented others like he used to, he was once immature too—who hasn’t been young?

Moreover, Xu Woshi hadn’t committed any major offenses, and he ought to approach her with a tolerant mindset.

Being tolerant towards others also meant acknowledging and accepting one’s immature past self to better be oneself now.

Thinking this way, Xiao Yi suddenly found Xu Woshi much more likable.

It was then that he noticed Xu Woshi was hugging the gun tightly, clearly in a very tense state.

A person’s concentration is limited; there was no need to be so tense before the mission had even officially started.

Therefore, Xiao Yi reminded Xu Woshi:

"Xu Woshi, don’t be too nervous; put the gun down. There’s still some time until nightfall. Relax now so you can carry out the mission well later."

"I’m not nervous," Xu Woshi insisted, still clutching her gun. She said, "I’m just being vigilant, seriously monitoring our surroundings just in case. Plus, I’ve actually gotten used to this, sometimes concentrating like this for several hours at a time, so I don’t need to relax."

Xiao Yi, drawing from his own experience, saw that Xu Woshi was difficult to persuade, so he thought of a good way to deal with Xu Woshi, again based on his own experience.

"Xu Woshi, what’s this?" Xiao Yi said, pulling something out.

"This is!" Xu Woshi’s eyes widened in surprise!

"Correct, this is the pin from a grenade, here, you can play with it," he said, handing the grenade pin to Xu Woshi.

Why a pin? Isn’t that obvious! Because it’s fun!

In Xiao Yi’s mind, the pin from a grenade was as interesting as a very straight stick, so he kept one for himself.

He found it hard to resist such a thing, and how many in the world could?

As Xiao Yi expected, Xu Woshi’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and after thanking him, she eagerly began spinning the pin on her finger.

Xu Woshi relaxed from her previously tensed state.

Soon, the pin flew from Xu Woshi’s hand, she hastily chased after it, threw and chased it repeatedly, continuing the cycle.

Xiao Yi, watching her, couldn’t help clenching his teeth, filled with regret and envy!

"If I had known I would have kept an extra pin! Sigh... next time I throw a grenade I’ll keep a few for myself."

After a while, Xu Woshi came back looking disappointed and guilty.

"The pin is lost, it’s too dark to find it, I’m sorry..." she said.

"It’s alright, lost is lost, we’ll just keep another one next time we throw a grenade. More importantly, it’s about time to go."

Xiao Yi spoke, then headed towards the Night Demon’s nest.

"Okay."

Xu Woshi nodded and followed Xiao Yi’s pace.

Then the two entered the building that was dominated by the Night Demons.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Yi immediately sensed a dangerous aura inside the building!

Countless dangers were right above them at this moment!

Xiao Yi took a deep breath, ready to activate "Divine Power"!

However, just then, he suddenly heard Xu Woshi make an "ouch" sound.

Xiao Yi turned his head and found that Xu Woshi had disappeared.

"...?" Xiao Yi was startled, "Where is she?"

Right after, he heard Xu Woshi’s voice drifting over.

"I’m here."

Xiao Yi walked towards the source of the voice and found Xu Woshi in a deep pit.

The building, perhaps because it had been ravaged by the Night Demons, was extremely dilapidated, with rubble everywhere and the ground peppered with holes.

And within those holes, which most likely led to the underground garage, the entrance was now blocked. To get Xu Woshi out, it seemed the only way was to pull her up from the pit.

"..." Xiao Yi silently stared at Xu Woshi, saying nothing.

To be honest, he really didn’t want to rescue Xu Woshi—it was such a hassle.

As for the tolerant decision Xiao Yi had made just a short while ago... he had completely forgotten it.

"I fell down," Xu Woshi yelled from below.

"...How am I supposed to rescue you?" Xiao Yi felt helpless, "Forget it, I think we might as well die together!"

Saying this, Xiao Yi jumped down as well.

After reaching the same level as Xu Woshi, he simply lay down on the ground, motionless, giving up.

"...?" Xu Woshi walked over to Xiao Yi puzzledly, squatted down, and asked, "Xiao Yi, why did you fall asleep?"

"I’m not asleep," Xiao Yi looked at Xu Woshi, who was close at hand, and corrected her, "I’m dead."

Xu Woshi: "?"

"No, that’s not right either," Xiao Yi thought for a moment, then said, "I’m not dead either, just not alive anymore."

Xu Woshi: "???"

Xu Woshi was even more confused.

Xiao Yi’s words, not to mention Xu Woshi, everyone else would be just as baffled.

[Brother Xiao Yi isn’t alive, but he’s not dead either, what does that mean?]

[What is this life-death superposition state?]

[In a state between life and death, isn’t that just waiting to die?]

[Some people are dead, but they still live on.]

Although Xiao Yi really wanted to continue lying down, unfortunately, the current situation did not permit him to do so.

Let’s not forget, this was a Night Demon’s nest.

Night Demons feared sunlight, so they would hide in dark places where the sun couldn’t reach during the day to rest, waiting for the nightfall.

And Xiao Yi’s current location was undoubtedly the perfect nest for Night Demons!

"...Hmm?"

Suddenly, Xiao Yi noticed light emerging in the darkness around them!

Then, more and more light appeared! Almost filling up the darkness all around, completely engulfing them!
