The moon was far away from him, and his thoughts were also far away.
The dark eyes reflected a faint brilliance.
Everyone's time flow rate is different.
If there is nothing important, the game will speed up the time flow of individual players and even jump.
Just like the characters in the game, after completing a task, you can jump directly to the next time period.
In other words, each of them may exist in different time and space.
Cheng Ye's eyes slowly filled with mist, and he raised his head, motionless.
[Ding, congratulations to the player "Cheng Ye" for starting the side mission. 】
[Side mission: Conceal everything for your father for 2 days. 】
The cold system sound sounded, and Cheng Ye's trance immediately faded, and his eyes suddenly became clear.
Is this a side mission...
That means that when the five of them get together tomorrow, the news that everyone tells may not be complete.
He started side quests, which meant that others would also start side quests.
Everyone may lie or conceal something for their own selfish reasons.
Wei Sheng'an's voice sounded in Cheng Ye's ears.
"If you want more points, the plot needs to be complete."
But for now, if you want the plot to be complete, you have to give up the side missions.
So, which one has more points, the complete plot, or the side missions?
...
Cheng Ye chuckled and walked home.
The lonely moon hangs high in the sky.
Under the shallow clear light, a dark shadow stood at the door.
Coming closer, it was Old Man Chen.
He didn't know when he had gone home.
Or maybe his time jumped again.
He held a thick cotton-padded jacket in his hand, and his face showed worry that could not be concealed.
The moment he saw Cheng Ye, he immediately took three steps and trotted up to him: "Son, it's such a cold day, you need to wear more clothes."
Cheng Ye didn't move.
He just stood there, looking deeply at Old Man Chen.
As if to see through him.
Seeing Cheng Ye's expressionless face, Old Chen took a step back timidly, but then stepped forward and put the cotton-padded jacket on for Cheng Ye.
His mouth moved but he didn't speak. He just covered the cotton-padded jacket and took care of it carefully.
There is nothing artificial about it, he is not acting.
He really cared about his son, but at the same time, he was afraid of him.
Cheng Ye really couldn't connect the thin man in front of him with the cold and ruthless murderer just now.
A flash of inspiration.
Cheng Ye suddenly changed his face and asked, "Dad, did you just go out?"
The voice was deserted and seemed particularly clear in this silent night.
There is no system beep.
Sure enough, Chen's son could take the initiative to talk to Old Man Chen.
He should have been shouting at Old Man Chen a lot on weekdays.
As long as the attitude is indifferent and confident, it will be fine.
Old Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he confirmed that Cheng Ye was talking to him, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
But just as his smile rose, he stopped again. He whispered: "Dad, dad is working hard to make money..."
Cheng Ye frowned, what is this?
"...Give dad a little more time, and dad will work hard to make money..." the voice continued.
Old man Chen rubbed his hand back and forth nervously, and large beads of sweat fell from his forehead.
Have you killed anyone?
Cheng Ye looked at Old Man Chen for dozens of seconds, wanting to ask the man in front of him, but he moved his lips and said nothing.
Side mission: Conceal everything for your father.
Does this concealment include the father himself?
ha.
Cheng Ye suddenly laughed, his narrow eyes half-closed.
His backside was already soaked.
It's a trap.
Cheng Ye said nothing and strode straight towards his bedroom.
I'll know more when I meet the others tomorrow.
The night passed.
Cheng Ye rested well and checked the system time. It was almost time to rush to the small square.
Not surprisingly.
His father stood at the door with a timid smile, rubbing his hands and saying nervously: "Son, you have to go out."
He is completely different from the person who killed yesterday.
"Yeah." Cheng Ye tried again.
After a while, there was still no system prompt tone.
Sure enough, even if he occasionally responded to his father, he would not be judged as deviating from his personality.
No matter how uncertain Chen's son is, he can't be impatient with Old Chen all the time.
Old man Chen was very happy to see Cheng Ye taking care of him.
It was as if this was the first time Chen's son responded to Old Chen.
The whole person's state has changed, and even the bent waist seems to be straighter.
"I'll make you lunch, just wait for me."
Old man Chen was full of joy and overjoyed and quickly walked towards the kitchen.
Cheng Ye looked at Old Chen's back and sighed.
If he stayed here and waited, he would be warned by the system.
It is impossible for Mr. Chen's son to have such long patience with Old Man Chen.
Cheng Ye walked towards the door.
In the small square, the old bachelor was already waiting.
There is no daylight today and it is a little cold.
The moment the old bachelor saw Cheng Ye, he was very excited and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Son Chen, how about lunch!"
"..." Cheng Ye walked up to him and said, "Good afternoon."
"I made a discovery." The old bachelor couldn't wait to start saying: "Last night, I thought about it and decided that drinking is the fastest way to connect with each other. I called the old bachelor next door to my house and thought If we drink and chat, we can naturally find out some information."
"This is what I think. Now that we have determined that this person is a ghost, I will first ask who has died in recent years. This way, it will be faster to find the person."
"But, here's the strange thing." The old bachelor shrugged his head, a little dejected: "That old bachelor doesn't want to talk about this."
"I tried several times. At first I thought it was because the topic of death was too sensitive, but later I found that as long as the topic was even remotely related, he would stop talking..."
Cheng Ye frowned and said nothing.
His eyes looked into the distance and his mouth opened wide.
Yang Cunhua was not with her.
Last night he guessed that the dead child might be Yang Cunhua's daughter.
Whether it is true or not, we have to wait until Yang Cunhua comes to know.
But now, only Zhang Dazui came.
He walked closer with his mouth wide open and greeted everyone with a serious look on his face.
Then he went straight to the point decisively: "One thing is strange. As long as Yang Cunhua and I tried to ask who died in the village last night, everyone would keep silent."
"Me too." The old bachelor's eyes flashed and he said quickly.
"Originally, we thought that as long as we knew who had passed away in recent years, and then selected from the list, we could identify them as quickly as possible, but no one wanted to talk about this."
The old bachelor hit it off and started chatting with Zhang Da Zui.
Cheng Ye raised his eyebrows, don't you want to talk about killing people?
Taboo, or for other reasons.
Think of the customs clearance method proposed by the old bachelor yesterday.
If this is the case......
