What’s wrong with the dream world!

"Han, you've been acting weird lately."

Although Fang Xuemu was still stubborn and refused to admit her mistake, her tone was also a little more cautious than before.

The girl herself didn't notice that the scarlet in her pupils had faded a little and became much clearer.

"Last night, when I killed that military fate holder, you didn't object."

Fang Xuehan, who was unusually emotional, responded reluctantly:

"Every failure is a lesson learned. In a fight between fate holders, there's no mercy. The 'dream person' harassing my brother is a lesson learned... I don't want to anger him again."

"Is that so? But I'm quite happy to see him angry... but I don't want him to hate me."

Fang Xuemu was unusually calm and didn't say anything stubborn, but just whispered a small part of her inner thoughts to herself.

She got up from the bed, walked barefoot on the floor, and rubbed her dark circles in front of the full-length mirror in the room.

Because they were worried about Yu Xiu De, neither Fang Xuemu nor Fang Xuehan could sleep. As a two-faced person, one of the two sides must control the body, so if neither consciousness wants to sleep, the body will not sleep on its own.

When the girl opened her eyes again, her pupils had turned gray and were no longer as pure as before.

Fang Xuehan frowned, showing an impatient expression.

"Mu, it seems to me that you have changed a lot recently."

"If it were in the past, would you have wanted your brother to change his mind about you and understand his feelings?"

……

……

In the apartment, after getting up, Yu Xiude, dressed in casual home clothes, brushed his teeth and washed up, then went to the kitchen to make a simple breakfast.

Although this is not necessary for the 'dreamer', [Nightmare] is not ready to give up reality.

After finishing breakfast, while sitting at the dining table, Yu Xiu De felt the slight vibration of his cell phone in his pocket.

He opened it and found that the editor-in-chief had sent him private messages again.

"Get some rest, little fish."

"One day is still too short. Perhaps I didn't notice you weren't in the right state when I was at work yesterday. It's my fault as a supervisor... I'm giving you an extra week."

"It won't be counted towards this year's annual leave. After all, you've been working diligently at the newspaper for the past two years... I remember it all and saved it for you!"

This made Yu Xiu De's mouth curl up slightly, and it seemed that his stressful mood in the past two days had recovered.

The care of others is always the best way to relax when you are tired.

It's not easy to find such a good boss these days, even though I was just looking for a job casually...

Until he saw the second half of the message from the editor-in-chief.

"Take care of yourself and don't worry about work."

"I've combined your ideas with mine, drawing on their strengths and overcoming their weaknesses, and have come up with a brilliant, practical, and definitely feasible new idea...

"I believe that this plan, combining the wisdom of both of us, will surely bring our newspaper to the top! Create brilliance!"

"Haha, Xiaoyu, just wait. I will definitely give you a big surprise in a week!"

The curve of Yu Xiude's mouth disappeared.

"A week...isn't that enough time for all his fantastic ideas to be put into practice?"

Yu Xiu De was a little worried.

But compared to rushing back to his workstation to prevent his boss from committing suicide, he felt that a week's vacation was more important.

What has happened in recent days will take time to wrap up.

It's not that he needs a vacation to relieve his stress on a spiritual level. For Nightmare, the emergencies that happen every other day in reality can't actually make him feel stressed or have a sense of crisis. After all, only an hour in reality may pass while a year in a dream.

At least that is what Yu Xiude thinks of him.

But the frequency of these unusual events still made him feel a little uneasy. At present, reality was still irreplaceable for [Nightmare].

Even though he already knew that his old classmate was secretly looking out for him, Yu Xiude still felt that someone besides Xu Yuanjie was secretly watching him, and he couldn't see who it was...

So just in case, he decided to temporarily stop his real-life activities and stay at home. Yu Xiu De didn't want to implicate others.

My colleagues at the newspaper are all pretty good, and the editor-in-chief is a very good boss overall, not only because he often comes up with some ideas. It would be bad if I were affected.

As for the retreat plan, Yu Xiu De had already thought of it after falling asleep for the second time in the early morning.

If within a short period of time, at least within a month in reality, an unusual incident occurs around him that targets or affects him, then he will immediately leave Qianpeng City and live in other cities without thinking twice.

And if there were any problems along the way or in other cities, he would leave the Federation immediately... At most, before leaving, he would repay the favor that his old classmates had shown him over the years.

Of course, there is another more straightforward and thorough way out.

Use the ability of "Dream Man" to live in other people's dreams for a while, and then return to reality after the storm has passed.

Although the ability of the "dreamer" is still limited, for example, when the dreamer wakes up, he cannot continue to dive into the dream, but Yu Xiu De has also thought of some solutions.

For example, they could specifically infiltrate the dreams of vegetative patients who were barely conscious, or they could not only parasitize a person's dream but also use it as a temporary resting place, constantly jumping back and forth between dreams...

His abilities range widely, and at any given moment there are always some people who don't follow their biological clocks and take a lazy break.

"But this retreat is still premature..."

Out of consideration for his own mental state, Yu Xiu De decided to put this retreat on hold for the time being.

In the kitchen, Yu Xiu De, who was washing dishes, suddenly had an idea and instantly put on an apron and gloves for washing dishes, even though he was just wearing casual home clothes.

After cleaning, his clothes returned to their original appearance.

Leaving the kitchen and sitting on the sofa, Yu Xiu De crossed his hands on his knees, leaning forward, as if carefully savoring the breakfast he had just had.

The taste of the food itself, the feeling of chewing, the slight choking sensation as the food slides into the esophagus, and the filling of the stomach.

It’s just like a dream, but also just like reality.

In the past, [Nightmare] made his dreams seem like reality, but now, [Dream Man] makes his reality seem like a dream.

……

"Even if he wanted to put his idea into practice, the other people in the newspaper office wouldn't just sit there and watch. They would probably stop him before he got himself killed."

"I have only worked at that newspaper for two years, and he has been the editor-in-chief of that newspaper for more than ten years. I don't need to worry too much."

"Besides, even if they were to commit suicide and bypass the newspaper's internal review, how big a mess could they possibly cause? Official reviewers aren't just for show."

"Don't scare yourself..."

"There must be a reason why he's been able to maintain such enthusiasm even though his mind is full of fantastic ideas..."

By comparing the leader of his previous life who made a deep impression on him in his dream with the leader of this life, and silently repeating in his heart "one week of paid vacation, one week of paid vacation, one week of paid vacation", Yu Xiu De finally dispelled the thought of returning to work in his heart.

He is an employee under the editor-in-chief, not the editor-in-chief's nanny.

Yu Xiude, who was always clear-minded, typed on his phone and politely replied to the editor-in-chief, "Got it, thank you for your concern."

He was restrained and didn't even ask the other party what new ideas they had.

Yu Xiu De sat on the sofa for a while, turned on the TV, and then heard the doorbell ring.

He was not surprised, but did not open the door immediately. Instead, he went back to the bedroom and took out the breakfast bag containing the pistol.

Although Zhu Yajing and Liu Liangrui did enter Yu Xiude's house in reality yesterday, they were actually "sleepwalking".

Their bodies moved in reality, but their consciousness controlling their bodies existed in dreams, so they did not notice the conspicuous breakfast bag in the bedroom, nor did they find a gun inside... although it was meaningless.

The owner of this fate is more dangerous than a gun.

"Maybe it'll be useful later..."

With this thought in mind, Yu Xiude put the breakfast bag on the dining table in the living room.

The doorbell didn't ring any more, as if the person outside was waiting patiently.

Yu Xiu De, wearing slippers, walked slowly towards the door and opened it.

The doorknob turned, and sure enough, outside were Zhu Yajing and Zhu Qin, mother and daughter.

Yu Xiu De looked at the two of them carefully and confirmed that there was no sign of their hypothetical dreams being triggered, which meant that they had a safe journey without any accidents... It also meant that neither of them had any intention of calling the police.

It is a thought, not an action. "Nightmare" cannot read the mind, but "dream" itself comes from the mind... This is a cross-domain application.

It is understandable to call the police. After all, [Nightmare] never deliberately disguises his behavior, not to mention the blessing of No. 13. Now the owner of the fate of the dream field in Qianpeng City has the words suspicious and dangerous written on his face.

Just out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth... It is easy for ordinary people to have this kind of thought, and there is no loss in calling the police.

"Good morning, Mr. Yu Xiude."

The door opened, and seeing the young man in front of her, Zhuqin bowed to Yu Xiude stiffly.

Zhu Yajing first showed a shy and embarrassed smile, and then her mother patted her gently. She reacted and bowed awkwardly.

After bowing, Zhu Yajing used sign language to greet in the same way, but did not speak.

Seeing this, Zhuqin quickly explained:

"We just got back from the hospital. The doctor said she needs to rest quietly. It seems she's been lethargic for a long time and has moderate vocal cord damage. Please forgive me for allowing me to send my regards to you on her behalf."

As he said this, Zhuqin bowed to Yu Xiude once again.

In response, Yu Xiu De just nodded slightly with reserve, and at the same time noticed that both of them had light dark circles under their eyes.

"It seems that Zhu Yajing's fate as a Curse Master has not brought any physical changes to her, at least not enough to make her sleep-deprived."

Inferring the ability of the owner of a destiny based solely on the name is actually the most crude approach. A field investigation is necessary to make a better conclusion.

"Please come in."

Faced with the two people's overly polite and even somewhat humble greetings, Yu Xiu De remained calm, opened the shoe cabinet, took out two pairs of clean disposable slippers, and handed them to the two people.

Zhuqin thanked him repeatedly, then took it with both hands like Zhu Yajing and put on slippers.

The three of them came to the living room and sat at the dining table which had been cleaned with only a breakfast bag left. Zhu Qin and Zhu Yajing sat on one side. Yu Xiu De poured a glass of warm water for each of them and sat on the other side alone.

"I can now basically confirm that the man is dead. You don't have to worry about him harassing you in the future."

Yu Xiu De's expression was so dull, as if he was talking about boring household matters.

"If you have any questions, you can ask me now. If you don't know what to do in the future, you can also ask me now."

"After all, as a neighbor, I have been dragged into your family affairs by you. Since I have already intervened, I should at least resolve it."

Yu Xiu De's voice remained calm, without a trace of emotion.

Hearing this, Zhu Yajing blushed and lowered her head guiltily.

And although Zhuqin still suspected that the person in front of her had a fate that was inextricably linked to the "real dreamland", and that he was actually targeting his daughter just like Liu Liangrui, he also lowered his head, at least showing the due humility.

Then, Zhuqin took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to ask:

"Mr. Yu Xiude, what will Yajing's future be like?"

There was a hint of reluctance and trembling in her voice, as if she had made some great determination, but also hoped for a miracle to happen.

"Will I...will I be able to see her again in the future?"

Hearing this question, Yu Xiu De frowned slightly, obviously realizing that Zhu Qin still had some misunderstandings about him.

She thought of herself as someone like Liu Liangrui...who wanted to control her daughter, but her methods were more acceptable and gentler than Liu Liangrui's.

For example...love.

Yu Xiu De still remembered Liu Liangrui's inexplicable remarks and Zhu Yajing's intense reaction. He was now certain that Zhu Yajing had a crush on him.

He looked at Zhu Yajing who had raised her head and found that her face showed a look of despair. She seemed to understand what Zhu Qin was saying, but she opposed Zhu Qin's opinion, but to no avail.

Seeing this, Yu Xiu De turned his gaze back to the middle-aged woman in front of him who was confused by his concern. His face was expressionless, and his tone was heavier:

"What your daughter's future holds has nothing to do with me. It depends solely on her."

"Whether you and her can meet again is a matter between you and your daughter."

"Ms. Zhuqin, I must remind you that this is the second time you have held an unnatural prejudice against me."
