It seems that the villain is targeting me.

What Chen Xiaoyue said here was all true - the first reincarnation happened at least several decades ago, and she was in an extremely unstable mental state at the time. If she could remember all the details clearly, it would be really incredible.

Xiao Niao made a "hmm" sound.

So... Chen Xiaoyue was accidentally drawn into this world.

Xiao Niao thought anxiously: Could it be because I was at her house at the time? Did I accidentally get involved with her during my time traveling?

This seems to explain some of Chen Xiaoyue's behavior...

No, no, no, no, she shouldn't kiss herself no matter what - even if she finally met someone she knew in a strange world, she shouldn't do such a thing!

Xiao Niao thought: Oh my god, what on earth is going on? If the doctor was accidentally dragged here by me, then am I responsible for her?

Chen Xiaoyue thought: The teacher really likes me the most! Otherwise, why would she be so nice to Chen Xiaoya? It must be because of me.

Smart readers should have discovered by now that the two people’s communication is not on the same channel at all, and it is completely like talking at cross purposes.

But the conversation went on smoothly as if by magic, and neither Xiaoniao nor Dr. Chen noticed anything unusual.

In short, from this moment on, things began to develop in a very strange direction.

Xiao Niao was almost confused by her own logic. She looked at the doctor a little bewilderedly, not knowing what to say.

Chen Xiaoyue took a step forward silently.

She was tall, and by deliberately straightening her back, she easily covered Xiao Niao in her shadow.

The doctor lowered his head and looked at the bird, his eyes filled with too many unspeakable emotions.

"...So?" she whispered, "...You haven't answered me yet. Do you remember what happened before?"

Chen Xiaoyue's voice was very low and she spoke cautiously, as if everything before her was just an illusory dream that would shatter if she spoke a little louder.

Xiao Niao was stunned for a moment.

What happened before?

Oh, you’re talking about what happened before I came to this small world.

The doctor probably wanted to confirm my identity. After all, she would definitely feel scared to suddenly come to such a completely unfamiliar place in an era completely different from the real world.

But when should we start talking about what happened in the past?

Start from the beginning? Or start from the day I wake up?

Doctor Chen was looking at her, his head lowered, staring at her nervously, his lips tightly pursed.

The ceiling light in the suite was on, casting an ambiguous and hazy glow in the air.

The atmosphere is weird...

Xiao Niao was originally calm and composed, but after being looked at by the doctor like this, he couldn't help but feel agitated.

"What happened before..."

She unconsciously repeated the doctor's question and continued speaking according to her heart: "I remember I had a car accident that day..."

Xiao Niao was still talking, opening and closing his mouth, but Chen Xiaoyue could no longer hear anything.

The moment she heard the word "car accident", her head buzzed.

Chen Xiaoyue still remembers everything that happened that day.

That scene replayed itself over and over in her nightmares, dyeing her world scarlet.

"It's a murder for hire."

"The driver was already dying, and he was bribed to drive onto the sidewalk."

"He's lost too much blood. He can't be saved." "Where are the family members? Come and sign."

"Please grief."

"Sorry, we really don't have any evidence..."

Policemen in blue, nurses in white, unrelated passers-by, different people passed by her one after another, and none of them stayed for long.

She watched and listened numbly, sitting motionless in the same position on a bench in the hospital waiting area. No one sat next to her because a person covered in blood looked scary.

Some medical staff couldn't bear it and came over to gently persuade her to change her clothes.

The blood was almost dried, leaving a dark red stain on her tight-fitting shirt. There was a strong smell of rust, but she seemed unable to smell it. The air conditioning in the hospital was very cold, but the blood still felt hot to the touch.

Chen Xiaoyue wrinkled the fabric at her shoulders, squeezing so hard that her knuckles turned bluish-white. She curled up and hugged herself tightly. A lot of blood gushed out of the bird's body. She pressed hard, doing what the textbook said, but it was of no avail.

Chen Xiaoyue couldn't even deceive herself: the moment she saw the wound, she knew the bird was going to die.

No, no.

She tightened her arms, trying to find something familiar in the dried blood.

Chen Xiaoyue was filled with fear. She couldn't feel even a little bit of warmth. The extremely damp and cold cloth stuck to her skin, bringing a chill that almost penetrated into her bones.

No, no.

"...Doctor, Doctor Chen?!"

Chen Xiaoyue shook herself sluggishly, and the sharp tinnitus in her head seemed to fade away a little. She breathed heavily, her arms clasped together tightly.

When she came to her senses, she had already held the bird in her arms.

Xiao Niao's body was very stiff, but it was warm when held in my arms, and I could feel its pulse if I got close enough.

Maybe she was frightened by the doctor's sudden action, but she didn't struggle particularly violently.

Warm tears fell and dripped onto the back of Xiao Niao's neck, making her shiver unconsciously.

"you……"

Chen Xiaoyue hugged her as tightly as she could, like a drowning man clinging to the last piece of driftwood.

She sobbed, as if she could no longer control her emotions.

"It's okay," Chen Xiaoyue's voice was hoarse and trembling, and she spoke incoherently, "You're okay now, it's all over..."

Xiao Niao, who just talked about how he almost died because of the oxygen tube being crushed:?

She glared at Chen Xiaoyue: What's wrong with you?

But Dr. Chen was in a daze right now and didn't notice the abnormality in Xiaoniao's attitude at all.

Chen Xiaoyue didn't want to recall the past, nor did she want Xiaoniao to recall those painful experiences. She pleaded in a hoarse voice with a hint of pleading, asking her not to continue.

Xiao Niao: ...You asked me to speak just now, but now you don’t want to listen.

But never mind, just don’t tell it, it’s no big deal.

She raised her hand hesitantly and slowly placed it on the doctor's

He gently stroked the student's back up and down as if to soothe him, and spoke softly to comfort him.

This seemed to have some effect. Chen Xiaoyue's mood was slowly stabilizing, and she seemed to be coming out of her previous gloomy and confused state.

Xiao Niao looked at her and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Is this really the Dr. Chen I know?

But it's unlikely that he would admit his mistake, right?

They look exactly the same, both have the surname Chen, are doctors, and they know each other - how could there be such a coincidence in the world that two people so similar would appear.

Even if they were twins, it wouldn't be possible.

This is too confusing, Xiao Niao thought, what on earth happened?

No, I can’t keep worrying about it. Let’s put the doctor’s matter aside for now… We’ll figure out how to deal with it later!

A lot of time has been wasted now, she has to get out of the house as soon as possible.

The sound outside the door disappeared for a while. Lu Yao must have left.

However, Xiao Niao did not hear the voice of the Son of Fortune in the corridor, so he could not confirm whether Gu Tianjiao was still in the hotel.

What was disturbing was that Number Four's voice also disappeared along with Lu Yao.

Chapter 83: The only things that can be cut apart are shame and self-respect!

"Ah... I feel dizzy," the system muttered. "What on earth happened..."

"Wake up, digital life has no head at all."

Xiao Niao covered his eyes with his hands, enduring the dull pain in his temples. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he complained aloud, "--It's clearly my head that's dizzy!"

The system coughed awkwardly: […It just turned on, so the noise is a bit loud…]

System: [No, wait a moment.]

How could it suddenly shut down?

Perhaps it was because there was a lag when electronic devices restarted, and the system delayed for about five seconds before finally remembering what happened before the disconnection.

The bird caught the woman... met resistance... dragged her into the house... tried to take emergency measures but the line was disconnected...

In a flash, Tongzi's calculation panel came up with the first possibility: [Oh my god, you actually won?!]

The system has a full understanding of its host and can estimate the bird's basic combat power even without means such as digitization or scanning analysis.

Yes, it’s probably about the power of a goose…

Without weapons, it was obvious that the host could not deal with that woman with just his skills.

That's why the system was so surprised to see Xiao Niao standing in the corridor safe and sound.

When Tongzi forcibly cut the line earlier, he was almost in despair - he thought the bird was going to fall into the hands of a bad woman again and be tied up and treated like that.

[You actually won,] the system muttered to itself, [It's simply a miracle...]

The system noticed that Xiao Niao had left the original suite and was standing in the hotel corridor.

And in front of him, separated by a door panel, is the room where the Son of Fortune is.

Although the fluctuations were abnormal and the intensity had weakened a lot, Tongzi could still clearly sense the unique luck coming from the "romance hero".

The Son of Luck is still in the room. Lu Yao's reaction seems to be quite far away, so he should have left the hotel.

Hmm, wait, the system wondered secretly, where did that strange woman go...

It was just about to ask the bird what had happened just now, but it was as if someone had suddenly pressed the mute button and it suddenly fell silent.

Xiao Niao just turned his head and looked to the side slightly before Tongzi opened his mouth.

Her vision was partially shared with the system, so it was not until now that she could see the woman standing beside her through the bird's eyes.

【Alas--】

The system let out a fragmented scream: [She? She! That woman from before! Why is she next to you—]

Brother Tongzi was so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly.

Its scanning and analysis module has been operating at full power since the beginning, but this ghostly guy was able to stand right in front of the bird without being discovered.

Even now, when it swept towards the direction where Dr. Chen was standing, it was as if it touched air, with no response at all. It felt like playing hide-and-seek with a murderer and thinking you were safe, but then you ran into love around the corner.

Is this thing broken? The system thought desperately.

It began to doubt Tongsheng.

Xiao Niao was also in a complicated mood. She glanced at Dr. Chen who was standing beside her and looking at her innocently, and always felt that something was strange.

But now really wasn't the time to delve into this matter any further—it was already daybreak outside, and it would be noon sooner rather than later.

She was also thinking about going back to have lunch with the kid at noon!

"Her story is a long one," Xiao Niao muttered softly, "Anyway, just forget about it for now... Tongzi, can you see if this door can be opened?"

She was pointing at the door of the hotel suite, which was the room where Gu Tianjiao was staying now. Lu Yao closed the door when she left, so the room was now locked.

Xiao Niao looked inside through the cat's eye: it was all blurry black inside and he couldn't see anything clearly.

There was no light in the room, and I didn't know if the people inside were still awake.

On the other side, Tongzi didn't know whether he was numb or adapted, but he actually did what Xiaoniao said, temporarily ignoring the existence of Chen Xiaoyue beside him, opened the mall in a self-destructive manner, and began to search for keywords.

Assisting the host is the system's main job. Tongzi mutters while working, and if you listen carefully you can hear that he is cursing the main control for "what a shitty program you wrote".

After flipping through the pages for a while, the system turned around and asked Xiao Niao: [Where's Xiao Si? He should be the one doing this job. The High-Authority Mall has very cheap, one-time door-opening props.]

It's super easy to use, the system tells the bird, "Swing like this, like that, and say 'Alaho Open.'"
