Yang Miemie (Thanks to Wants to Tell a Story for the Alliance Leader!)

I didn't bring up anything, simply glossing over the topic in a nonchalant manner.

After returning to the sanatorium, Cheng Shuang received a phone call, then turned around and smiled, "My aunt just arrived in Jiangning City. My mom asked me to go back tonight and talk to her. I'll go back now and come over to keep you company tomorrow."

"Okay, sure."

I nodded.

Cheng Shuang left with her bag, while I stood by the window, watching her drive away in her Maserati MC20. For a moment, I felt a pang of emotion. The threshold for high-class families is too high; the social class is simply insurmountable. Even becoming friends with them is so difficult.

So, I took out my phone and booked a train ticket to Huaining City for noon the next day.

Afterwards, I lay in bed reviewing the events of the past few days.

Cheng Shuang's parents suddenly demanded a meeting and said those nasty things to me behind Cheng Shuang's back. Presumably, someone informed on them, and as for who informed on them... it was obviously Qin Lang.

This Captain Qin is probably not a simple person...

As for Cheng Shuang, isn't it too unfair for her to just leave like that?

So, I decided to give each other a chance to be friends and see each other one last time.

The next day, after completing the discharge procedures, I put on a casual outfit and walked along the main street of Jiangning City, soon arriving at the Cat Cafe that Cheng Shuang and I often visited.

"Meow~~"

The cat whose testicles Cheng Shuang had flicked before walked over and plopped down on the table.

I ordered an Americano and sat down lazily.

Then he sent Cheng Shuang a message: "I'm leaving Jiangning City. I'm at the Cat Cafe right now. Come and meet me, then I'll be leaving."

After sending the message, there was no reply for a long time.

I grew increasingly anxious as I waited.

My coffee was refilled three times, and it wasn't until around 10:30 that I finally received a message from Cheng Shuang after a "beep": "I'm sorry..."

She's not coming.

Just then, the phone rang again. It was a text message from Qin Lang: "Ding Han, you don't need to wait anymore. Cheng Shuang said she doesn't want to see you. Take care of yourself after you leave Jiangning City. If you change your mind, contact me and I'll come pick you up personally."

"Understood, thank you, Captain Qin."

After replying to the message, I suddenly felt a sense of relief. It's good that he left; it's all over now!

I got up, left the pet cafe, hailed a taxi on the roadside, and headed to the train station.

Everything went smoothly. After boarding the train to Huaining City, I suddenly started to look forward to my future life. By this time tomorrow, my Severely Injured status will be lifted, and I will be able to team up to go out and gain experience. I must level up to 30 as soon as possible and advance to the third tier of my profession. After all, I have several purple third-tier equipment waiting to be equipped in my Dimensional Storage Space!

Then, I took out my phone and sent WeChat to Cai Cai and Kou Mei respectively, informing them that I was on the high-speed train to Huaining City and asking them to come and meet me as soon as possible.

"Okay!"

Cai Cai immediately replied, "I'll see if I can book tickets right away. We could arrive in Huaining City tonight if all goes well!"

Kou Mei replied, "Boss, wait for me! I'll be there by tomorrow at the latest!"

I smiled slightly; perhaps this is my true world.

As for everything that happened with Cheng Shuang in Jiangning City, let's just consider it a dream.

High-speed trains are very fast.

In less than an hour, we entered Huaining City.

Make sure to pee before getting off the train, so you don't have trouble finding a toilet after you exit the station. This is a good habit you should always maintain!

So, he went to the restroom, urinated, washed his hands, closed his eyes, activated the star map, consumed 1% of his Experience Points, and said in a deep voice, "Player Shadow Chaser, calling on player Chasing Light! Player Shadow Chaser, calling on player Chasing Light!"

This one-way star map call cannot be heard by others; only the person being called can hear it if they are within the star map's area.

A few seconds later, a star lit up on my star chart.

"Ding Han?" His voice was still so familiar, with that cheeky tone.

"Holy crap, Fatty!?"

"Hahaha, Ding Han?! Holy crap, it really is you..."

The fat man was overjoyed. "Damn, I almost thought I'd never see you again!"

Hahaha~~~

I was overjoyed and said, "Chatting in the Star Chart is too luxurious! Add me on WeChat right away. My WeChat is my phone number, it's 139****9999!"

"Holy crap, this number is awesome, did you buy it?"

"Stop talking nonsense. A friend helped me with this. Add me on WeChat and we can chat via WeChat."

"Good!"

After closing the star chart, I left the restroom and returned to my seat. My phone beeped; someone had sent WeChat friend request. I opened it and sure enough, it was Fatty, using a chubby profile picture and the name "Yang Miemie."

That's disgusting.

After we became friends, the fat guy actually video-called me right away.

Hahaha, it really is you!

After he saw me, he lowered his voice and came over and said, "Don't tell me, I seem to be a little more handsome here, unlike over there, where I feel decadent and like an idiot..."

"Damn it..."

I was speechless. "You were even more of an idiot than me over there, okay? By the way, you've been in Huaining City whole time?"

Yes, that's right.

The fat man said, "I've settled down here now, working in a square. What about you? I see you're on the high-speed train. Did you just arrive in Huaining City?"

"Right!"

I nodded. "Since you're here too, I'll definitely settle down in Huaining City. Tell me your address quickly, and I'll take a taxi directly to your place after I get off the bus."

"OK!"

The fat man grinned from ear to ear. "Then I'll take a day off and not go to work this afternoon. I'll send you the address of my apartment complex in a bit, you can come over here, and we'll have a good drink downstairs and drink until we're completely drunk!"

"About drinking..."

I hesitated for a moment, feeling a little uneasy, and said, "Let's talk about it in detail when we meet!"

"OK!"

So we chatted until the high-speed train arrived at the station, then we hung up the video call. After that, we queued up to hail a taxi and headed to the location that Fatty had sent us. The name on the location was easy to remember: it was located in the south of Huaining City, in a residential area called Guangming Residential Area.

On the road, most of the license plates on the vehicles started with "Ning E", while when I was in Jiangning City, most of the license plates started with "Ning A". This made me truly feel that I had indeed left Jiangning City and arrived in another city.

Should we contact Lin Qingying?

It doesn't seem necessary. In Creek City, we're just roommates; are we even friends?

It doesn't quite fit the bill; it's more like a relationship where strangers cross the line but aren't quite friends.

So I opened Lin Qingying's WeChat. There was still no profile picture, no name, just a blank screen. Even her Moments was blank; it wasn't set to be visible for only three days, it was just empty, without a single Moments. Anyone who didn't know better would think she had deleted him from their contacts.

Then, she sent a message to Lu Xiaobei, which still had a red exclamation mark.

That vengeful little woman!

"Handsome, we've arrived."

The driver slammed on the brakes, almost making me throw up.

After scanning the QR code to pay and getting off the bus, I saw a person standing at the entrance of the residential area, wearing a winter jacket and puffing out his stomach. He looked like a larger version of Li Xiang.

"Holy crap..."

The fat man turned to look at me, burst into laughter, and opened his arms, saying, "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and give me a hug!"

I lunged forward, and just as he was about to throw me to the ground, I suddenly lowered myself, wrapped my arms around the fat man's almost invisible waist, and lifted him high in the air.

"Holy crap..."

The fat man was panting heavily.

"Wow, that's amazing! How do you have such strength?" he exclaimed in surprise.

"Are you kidding me...?"

I grinned and said, "My strength is 474 points. How much is yours?"

"Holy crap, how is it so tall?!"

The fat man glanced at the character panel and said, "I only have 242 points..."

"Your sister..."

I was shocked. "My strength isn't surprising, but how come yours is so low? You're supposed to be a Firepower Specialist, with such low strength, you can't even lift many heavy weapons. What are you going to do in the future?!"

"Damn it..."

The fat man said speechlessly, "Then I'll be honest. I'm just too afraid of dying. I haven't used the Phase Teleportation Array since I was born in Huaining City, and I rarely even go to the Player Black Market. Because I'm too afraid of dying, I can only take on some daily quests, so my level is very low. I'm only level 19 right now. What about you? What level are you?"

Level 28.

"Awesome..."

"What's so great about that? If I hadn't been lying in a hospital bed for a month, I would have been level 30 Third Transfer by now!"

"..."

The fat man asked in surprise, "Why are you lying in a hospital bed?"

"You haven't looked at the Dark Web?"

What Dark Web?

"You rarely look at star charts?"

"Star charts require experience points, who would be willing to spend that..."

"Fuck you!"

At that moment, I finally understood why Fatty wasn't interested in my ID "Shadow Chaser" at all. He was a complete detached person from the game system. After coming to Star Abyss, he really focused on his job and daily tasks, and had almost no interaction with other players. So it was normal that he didn't know about the Creek City War or how popular the ID "Shadow Chaser" was.

"Fatty."

I said earnestly, "I really need to mentor you."

He immediately put on a pitiful expression. "Brother, please take me..."

I kicked him right away, laughing loudly, "Damn it, you better treat me to dinner!!!"

"Alright, let's go!"

Downstairs in the residential complex, there's a small restaurant called "Couple's Kitchen".

As soon as Fatty and I walked in, a middle-aged proprietress immediately came over and greeted us with a smile, "Little Yang, you're here again? Hmm, this young man looks unfamiliar; I've never seen him before!"

"Boss lady, let me introduce you. This is my best, best, best brother, Ding Han. We grew up together. I'll be a regular customer from now on. Quickly cook me a few of your signature dishes, and a bottle of Niulanshan. We two brothers are going to drink until we drop tonight!"

I was speechless, but I gleaned some information from the fat man's few words.

First of all, he often eats here.

Secondly, he's not doing very well, otherwise he wouldn't have treated me to Niulanshan; he should at least have bought Hai Zhi Lan.
