Why did Lone Claw Grind send her a message?

Bai Lu let out a breath in confusion, and first reported Black Tail Tetsuro's safety, saying that he met his mother just after returning home, and successfully slipped into the house before being poured for the second time.

Meeting Mom is real.

When she found her home, the other party was opening the door with a key, but her father didn't come home at all. It seemed that he had gone to work overtime and had a drink to socialize, and he didn't come back until dinner time.

Bai Lu didn't bother to pay attention to these anymore, and quietly finished dinner for two with the mother in the game.

He lay down on his bed tiredly.

"System: After dinner, you have nothing to do, so you decided to do something to pass the time?"

A. Go to Hei Zizhe and do homework

B. Go to the study to play games

C. Go to Black Tail Tetsuro's house to play

D. lie in bed and sleep

"..."

Options always come so timely.

And compared to the previous changes, Bai Lu kept lying on the bed, raised his hand and clicked D without any hesitation, and closed his eyes again lazily.

She had already changed her clothes a long time ago, and now she has no desire to leave at all.

until

"Buzz."

The phone vibrated a few times, and a few new messages about Line popped up in the notification bar.

Except for the normal inquiry from Black Tail Tetsuro, the rest is the news of the good assist teammate.

"Lone Claw Grinding: Are you there?"

...

What is this guy looking for?

Bai Lu thought that the two of them just ran into each other at Black Tail's house, and the other party seemed to have something to say, but was interrupted by Black Tail Tetsuro who came out with something.

Just ask, after all, he is a good teammate who relies on other people's assists.

After reporting to Heiwei that she was safe, she returned to the general list of Lines, opened the chat page of Lone Claw Grinding, and responded with a message in a leisurely manner.

"I just want to show off: yes, what's the matter?"

Unlike the girl's long reflex arc, the message was displayed as read as soon as it was sent, and Lone Claw Grinding's reply was faster than expected.

Also very surprising.

"Lone Claw Grinding: I went back to get the umbrella just now, but Little black told you to take it away."

Bai Lu: "..."

Is it for this??

Could it be that he wants to ask the teacher for his crimes?

"I just want to show it badly: I'm sorry, I took the grinding thing without authorization, are you in a hurry to use it..."

"I just want to be bad: Tutu crying jpg."

Bai Lu didn't expect that the other party would find out that the umbrella had been taken now, so she pulled the screen lazily, and although she crackled and typed the repentant tick G, she didn't have any expression on her face.

I thought back to the red umbrella I had thrown by the shoe rack before.

Get up and return it to others now?

nonexistent.

At most, Bai Lu will get up tomorrow and return it to this guy. The ghost will end the rest time that he has finally spared.

The bad king chooses to be willful.

"Lone Claw Grinding: Nothing, I have a spare at home."

"Lone Claw Grinding: I don't mean to be upset or blame you."

"Lone Claw Grinding: Just..."

The message bubble of Maomao's head seemed a little hesitant, and the reply was much slower than the second reply just now, and there was a sense of caution between the lines.

"Lone Claw Grinding: Are you coming to my house tomorrow?"

"Lone Claw Grinding: I..."

[The other party retracts a message.]

"Lone Claw Grinding: I still have your bento bag."

...

Um?

At the same time as this news appeared, the environment suddenly darkened, and the familiar translucent blue light panel was in front of us.

"System: Lone Claw Grinding invites you to exchange things at his house tomorrow, what is your decision?"

A. agree

B. to refuse

This guy didn't mention Furoshiki, Bai Lu almost forgot about the bento.

...The bento cloth must be brought back, otherwise her mother would have no way to explain it. It just so happened that after coming out of Lone Claw Grinding House, she could run to the next door to return the clothes, and thank Black Tail Tetsuro solemnly again.

It has to be said that the more you stay, the more you will find that this game is almost no different from reality in daily life. Only when options appear can people feel a sense of unreal separation.

For example, when Bai Lu ran home wearing a Black Tail Tetsuro shirt, he bumped into his mother. The other party not only asked the girl where she went to hide from the rain, but even marveled at where her clothes came from.

Bai Lu could only explain the reason clearly: "I went to a friend's house to hide from the rain for a while, and I borrowed the clothes to wear."

The part where the friend is a boy is subtly omitted.

"Be sure to thank the other party! Take your things and go!"

Even so, her native Japanese mother still gave all kinds of instructions and nags earnestly, and Bai Lu repeatedly said that she was able to let go of this topic, just like her real mother in real life.

I don't know what this game is trying to do...to create a 100% real experience?

It's not reality after all.

Bai Lu raised her hand sleepily and clicked option A, and the surrounding environment returned to normal. She replied a few words in the chat box without expression.

"I just want to show off: good! Then I will find you tomorrow."

"I just want to be bad: Chong Duck jpg."

Tomorrow is acceptable for the time being, but she doesn't have any motivation or mood to get up today.

I thought Lone Claw Grinding would not reply again, but when the message was sent out, he actually sent a matching duck.

"Lone Claw Grinding: Duck Duck Nodding jpg."

"sorry for disturbance"

The next morning, Bai Lu baked some biscuits in the kitchen, prepared things in advance, and took the umbrella and clothes to Lone Claw Grinding's house at the agreed time.

The other party lives next door to Black Tail Tetsuro. The entire house has been expanded to be larger than theirs. It is full of wealth, and the family conditions are probably quite good.

Raising his hand to ring the doorbell, it was Lone Claw Grinding who opened the door for her.

The boy was wearing an ordinary black sweater, his amber pupils looked at the floor on the left for a while, and the shoe rack for a while.

He lowered his head slightly, and his breath was very quiet, but there was a bit of restraint in the quietness.

"Just put the umbrella there."

"Would you like to come in and sit down..."

"Eh? No need."

Egret is also standing outside the door obediently. She is wearing a very frost-resistant skirt today, with a warm-colored knitted jacket on the outside. Her bright and clear cheeks are clean and fair. The long skirt adds a touch of softness and gentleness to the girl, and is versatile.What I'm talking about is probably Bai Lu's figure and capped appearance.

She raised the bag in her hand: "I'll go next door to find Senior Heiwei and return the clothes I borrowed yesterday, so don't bother me."

"Little Black..."

"Um?"

"Little black, he left for school training at 7 o'clock this morning."

Lone Claw Grinding lowered his eyes to look at the girl (because he was standing on the steps of the entrance), and explained patiently: "You can only come back at noon."

Bai Lu: "..."

I should have sent a text message yesterday to ask.

She took out the mobile phone in her pocket quite silently, turned on the screen and looked down at the current time. There are still more than 2 hours before noon, and it is impossible to wait here.

Then let's go home first.

Bai Lu put the phone back into his pocket, and chose to give up because of this episode without hesitation.

"Would you like to come to my house and wait a while?"

Lone Claw observed the girl's expression, before she opened her mouth to say goodbye, she suddenly repeated her previous proposal, with a slight glint in her indifferent eyes: "Little black will be back in about 2 hours."

"My new game is missing someone..."

"It's a two-player game. We can play together while we wait for Little Black."

"System: Lone Claw Grinding invites you to stay and play games, do you decide?"

A. agree

B. to refuse

...

When Bai Lu heard him talking about playing games, he was almost taken aback.

After all, the two are just online teammates, and they have never communicated in the game in reality.

Speaking of which, Lone Claw Grinding used her mailbox account last night to ask her if she wanted to play a dungeon. Bai Lu was not in the mood to play games at the time. After washing Black Tail Tetsuro's clothes, he lay on the bed and rested. He declined on the grounds of doing homework.people.

Apart from the fact that both of them are students, there is almost no overlap between her and "SRS".

...It seems that there is nothing wrong with playing for a while?

Now I go home to play games or do my homework. Instead of going back to play the inferior online games that I am already tired of (compared to 2022), it is better to stay at the grinding house and try the new games that the other party said.

On the way to play the game, you can also wait for Black Tail Tetsuro and return the things to others.

It's hard not to be heartbroken.

After pondering for a few seconds and finding that there was no need to refuse, Bai Lu simply raised his hand and clicked A according to his mood, and scratched his cheek with his index finger embarrassedly: "So, excuse me?"

"But I suck at playing games... just don't hold it against me."

Lone Claw Grinding: "..."

The handsome young man standing opposite squatted down, took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them in front of Bai Lu, saying lightly, "It's okay."

He led the girl upstairs, took out the second handle and connected it to the main unit, sat cross-legged at the end of the bed, raised his jaw and turned his head to look at Bai Lu: "Sit whatever you want."

The room of Lone Claw Grinding was smaller than expected, the gray-green curtains were neatly put together, the quilt was dark blue without any pattern, and the whole bed stood out in the small room.

Of course, the most sudden thing is the display screen placed at the end of the bed, and the very clear initial page of the game on the screen.

...

There is even a PS3.

Bai Lu almost thought he remembered the wrong time.

She walked to the bed quite unexpectedly, first put the bag on the ground, and picked up the game controller connected to the other party. In order to prevent the two of them from getting too close, the girl took the initiative to move to the side, separated by about an arm.Only then sat down on the bed obediently: "Press A to start?"

"…Um."

Lone Claw Grinding nodded, and handed the game disk box to the girl: "Do you understand this very well?"

Of course, it's just that understand it in reality.

Bai Lu took the things with an embarrassed look, and his voice revealed a bit of helplessness and distress: "Actually, I also like to play some games, which is a bit hard to see."

"fine."

Lone Claw Grinding retracted his gaze, lowered his head and stared at his feet facing each other, and moved his toes a few times: "There are game instructions on the box."

"Uh-huh."

Bai Lu glanced roughly at the instructions on the back of the box. This is a pixel-style adventure game that requires two people to work together. Play as two cats to experience various challenges in the abandoned city and return to the unpolluted nature..

The title of the game translated into Chinese is probably called a pair of cats... a bit like "Two People ○" and "Stray".

She couldn't help being a little disappointed, it seemed that it had nothing to do with simulated management or infrastructure, it was just an ordinary adventure game.

Let's just play it, at least it's better than ordinary MM online games that are barely used to pass the time, and it's very advanced in this era.

Before entering the room where the Lone Claw Grinds, Bai Lu had no idea that the other party had a Ps3 console, and there was a PSP handheld on the table. The teenager's bedroom was neat and orderly, and things and books were well placed in place.Clean boys.

"Which one do you want to choose?"

Lone Claw Grinding pressed A, and the game immediately entered the internal screen. The two protagonists of the game flashed on the screen. Players need to choose the characters they want.

It doesn't matter which one you choose.

Bai Lu looked at the screen boredly. The two pixel kittens have the same attributes, the only difference is in the grooming and decoration. The black raccoon cat with a big hammer on the right is more in line with her preferences.

"This one."

She happens to be sitting on the right, and she can press A to confirm without moving the selection box.

"oh."

Lone Claw Grinding consciously moved the joystick to the left, selected the delicate little three-colored cat with a pink bow tie, and said lightly, "Then I will choose this."

The next second after the selection, the game immediately begins the plot.

Playing games is naturally much more fun than being trapped in a "different world" to conquer or something. Bai Lu's energy and enthusiasm gradually increased. She did not expect that the gameplay of this game would be more interesting than imagined.

The little easter eggs set on the interaction are also very pleasing.

For example, players press Y at the same time one after the other, allowing two cats to interact with each other. The cat that presses the button first will raise its paw to touch the head of its teammate and bestow golden blessings.

The touched cat will lick it back and give back the golden Blessing Buff to teammates.

This Buff can speed up the running speed for 3 minutes, which is a convenient and fun interaction.

She tried grinding and grinding several times with great enjoyment, and before she knew it, she had already reached the big boss of the first level with her superb skills.

Yes, great skill.

As a talented player with all stats of 90+, Bai Lu can learn everything very quickly. This point has been repeated many times. She only took a few minutes to master the gameplay of this game.

It is very easy to move freely in the game.

The operation of Lone Claw Grinding is also more proficient than he played in that online game. All the puzzle-solving and brain-requiring links can be easily passed within a few minutes. The cooperation between the two is perfect.

Especially at the last moment...

The big boss suddenly burst out with a big move after the remaining blood, Lone Claw Grinding seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and very agilely manipulated his cat to grab the back of Bai Lu's neck, and avoided several waves with a double jumpWide range of attacks.

Although she also noticed it.

Temporarily taking a break for 2 or 3 seconds, Bai Lu inadvertently turned his head and glanced, just in time to see the expression of grinding concentration.

The young man with a delicate face is staring straight ahead, his amber eyes move back and forth flexibly with the content in the picture, and the glass-like pupils can clearly see the lines in the sunlight.

"It grinds like a cat."

Bai Lu sighed from the bottom of her heart in such a good mood, and before she could say anything else, she quickly looked back when she heard the new sound effects in the game, and quickly manipulated her character to take off, delivering the final blow to the big boss.

[Victory!]

A cheerful pop-up window popped up in the game, and the big boss whose eyes turned into ×× fell to the ground and stuck out his tongue.

Won.

The girl's light pear-colored eyes lit up, and she knelt on the bed obediently with her legs. Her long, smooth hair was scattered around her back-turned feet, and the slightly flicked ends of her hair showed her inner satisfaction with the result of the game.

The smell on her body was not the same as the smell on the tram that day, it was another light floral scent.

That pretty face... Maybe even the great sage of Lv.99 couldn't maintain a normal mind under this touching cheek, it was something more powerful than the biggest boss.

Bai Lu was about to turn his head to celebrate with Lone Claw, but the boy's voice suddenly came from the side, and the reaction on his face was much calmer than expected.

He did not look away, his amber eyes stared at the girl seriously, and said softly: "Then... can you touch me?"

...

"What?"

Bai Lu was stunned for a second, she almost thought she had heard it wrong, and turned around suspiciously to look at the boy next to her again.

"It's the interaction in the game..."

Lone Claw grinds his side face down slightly, his short black hair sweeps down his cheeks with his movements, and he mumbles in a soft voice, "It's interesting, isn't it."

Bai Lu: "..."

so what?

Because she just said "like a cat", this guy really wants to experience what it's like to be a cat??

Before waiting for the girl's response, Lone Claw raised his head cautiously. He hunched his back, held the game controller with both hands, raised his eyes tentatively from an upward angle, and a lonely light flashed across his eyes: "Can't you?"

It's not impossible.

It's just weird, right?

...Forget it, Bai Lu can't bear the gaze of Lone Claw Grinding. After all, this guy can't fall in love with her all of a sudden. According to her estimation, no matter how much the favorability is increased in the past two days of grinding, it will cost him every time he increases his favorability.The value of 2 points is used to calculate the maximum value, and the offline total is only 60, which will not exceed the limit of friendship.

It's rare to meet a character who has such a low initial liking for her, who plays games very well, and who is a childhood sweetheart with the target of the raid...

Occasionally make strange little requests, just treat it as satisfying the eccentricities of a good friend.

Bai Lu raised his arms with a broad mind, and gently placed his petite and fair palm on the top of the black-haired boy's head. He patted twice gently and without any effort, and coaxed gently: "Okay."

"Grinding and playing games is really good."

She retracted her hand, picked up the white game controller again, and was about to ask the other party "Is this all right?", but just said a word...

The breath of a strange boy broke into the air in front of him unexpectedly.

It is a kind of taste that is not the same as Black Tail Tetsuro, full of tranquility and comfort, and the subtle touch sticks to the skin.

Lone Claw leaned on the bed with one arm, leaned down and approached the girl abruptly, that handsome cheek instantly enlarged, the breath sprayed from the tip of his nose sprayed almost close at hand, and his thin lips lightly touched the egretThe cheeks in front of the ears.

Like a cat licking its fur.

He said in a very obedient voice: "Yeah."

"This is a return gift."
