Chapter 1089 A Passerby Cannon Fodder in an Infinite Flow Dimension (Part 12)
After drying her hair for a while, Miao Miao turned off the hairdryer when she felt it was dry. But for some reason, the hair on the back of her neck suddenly stood up, and fine goosebumps spread down her arms.
She instinctively picked up the hairdryer, stopped and scanned the room. The white walls, the soft carpet, and the bedside table with ornaments all looked perfectly normal. Even the artificial moonlight outside the window seemed very gentle. There was nothing wrong with it.
Well, perhaps it's fair to say that this entire mirror world is very strange.
Thinking about this, Miaomiao shook her head, deciding to calm herself down.
"Why are you scaring yourself?"
Miaomiao muttered and rubbed the back of her neck, subconsciously assuming that she was just being paranoid because of the filth in the mirror world.
She put down the hairdryer, touched her uneven short hair, and had no intention of getting it trimmed again.
Previously, the original owner was worried about her dangerous situation, so she had to cut off her hair bit by bit with a dagger. But at that time, she still couldn't bear it, because Miaomiao wouldn't do it, especially when her hair blocked her vision and she didn't have a hair clip. She would choose to cut all her hair short.
But now, her hair, after being washed again, has become unexpectedly fluffy and smooth, which makes Miaomiao look even more dashing and wild.
In particular, she has long eyelashes and a fair complexion after the dirt has been removed.
Miaomiao herself didn't even notice that she was actually a little different from the original owner. Her consciousness and soul were slightly different, but when Miaomiao entered a dimension, it was usually her soul that entered. So the consciousness that appeared in her soul, although it looked like the original owner, also carried Miaomiao's unique aura of the Holy Mother Clan.
It's not the taste, but the feeling it evokes.
Especially now that Miaomiao has been cleaned, she is unconsciously surrounded by a soft halo, not obvious, but very beautiful.
This change made Xie Chenzhou's gaze, looking through the transparent wall, even more deep and fascinated.
Miaomiao felt she had found her group and took a hot shower. Now she felt completely relaxed and had no worries. Who cares what tomorrow brings? At least she could get a good night's sleep now. Thinking about this, Miaomiao yawned, leaned back, and lay down on the soft bed, pulling the blanket over herself.
After the original owner came to this world, he lived in fear. Even though he had some skills and had beaten up a few scoundrels, the feeling of insecurity around him had penetrated to his very bones, so he couldn't sleep well.
Now, this is a safe haven. With her vigilance gone, Miaomiao barely touched the pillow before falling into a deep sleep, completely unaware of her surroundings.
Unbeknownst to her, she had just fallen asleep when Xie Chenzhou impatiently passed through the transparent wall and silently entered Miaomiao's room, standing beside her bed.
Xie Chenzhou restrained his movements, only daring to trace Miaomiao's sleeping face with his eyes. But restraint, which might have been as simple as eating and sleeping for Xie Chenzhou in the past, was now as difficult as climbing to the sky.
In less than a minute, his gaze failed him. Xie Chenzhou's fingertips trembled slightly as he gently stroked Miaomiao's cheek instead of using his eyes.
Xie Chenzhou hadn't gone too far yet; he still retained his ingrained manners. He gently touched Miaomiao's cheek with his fingers before restraining himself and placing them at his side.
However, after Xie Chenzhou met Miaomiao, his manners gradually changed. He managed to take his hand away, but couldn't help but lower his head.
His gaze fell on Miaomiao's hand, still bandaged and exposed outside the blanket, where a faint smell of iodine lingered. He brought his nose close, his warm breath brushing against the bandage, and then his lips gently touched the bandaged wound, the movement so light it was as if afraid to disturb a fragile dream...
"We can't really offend you, so let's start by collecting some interest."
He had only kissed Miaomiao's palm, but it sounded as if he had done something obscure, making his voice extremely hoarse.
Xie Chenzhou knew he couldn't stay any longer; if he did, he would really turn into a beast. So he stood up and went back to his room, casually restoring the white walls to their original state.
At this moment, Miaomiao, who was fast asleep, had no idea that someone had come to her room and kissed the palm of her hand.
Only the lingering scent of someone in the air and the dampness still clinging to the gauze in his palm silently testified to this secret approach.
The next day, golden sunlight streamed through the window and onto the floor, and even Miaomiao, who was lying in bed, could feel the warmth of the sunlight.
Everything around was quiet and peaceful. Miaomiao could even hear a few scattered bird calls, as if all the dangers in the world had been shut out.
But the moment Miaomiao opened her eyes, she immediately realized that this was just an illusion created by the mirror world.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this area is bathed in sunlight; it's like the sun, moon, and stars in some virtual games.
Outside this house, it remains the same arena where lives are at stake, and every day someone dies in despair during the game.
She sat up, feeling the tranquility of the room, and vaguely recalled the relationship between this mirror world and the original owner's home planet.
Perhaps initially, it captured people who had suffered accidents and were in a vegetative state. After all, on such a large planet with such a large population, it wasn't too unusual for someone to become a vegetable after a serious accident.
But as time went on and the mirror world absorbed more life force, it became bolder.
They are still injured people, but some of them do not fall into a coma. However, they are still absorbed into the world and become aware of it. Later on, they even start to scheme against others. Even the Chosen One and her brother are included in the Great Inner Palace's schemes.
Trying to get fat in one bite will only result in your teeth being broken by the rocks on that fat person's body!
Miaomiao let out a soft breath, and after hearing a slight noise from downstairs, she slowly got up to wash up.
When Miaomiao went downstairs, she realized that her older brother had just gotten up and was sitting on the sofa yawning.
Xie Chenzhou was the most sober among them, already sitting in the living room, staring blankly at the scenery outside with a calm expression.
Miaomiao was unaware that after Xie Chenzhou got up in the morning, besides getting some exercise, he began to gaze greedily at her for a long time through that transparent wall that only he knew about.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the three of them had lunch together.
During the meal, Miaomiao subtly told the two of the secrets she knew about the mirror world, claiming that she had heard about it in the players' rest area. Although she said she had heard about it, she spoke with certainty.
"If possible, we should finish the game as soon as possible."
