The European Emperor’s character remains standing

Chapter 204 Solitude: A Trip Souvenir with You
In the following days, Lin Shilu tried to find her companions, but they were all too poisoned and covered for each other, leaving the fawn nowhere to go. In particular, the fawn suffered from food poisoning and a bone fracture. While the others recovered within three days, she insisted on giving herself acupuncture, which made her less serious cases worse.

Rather than going back to face the deer cub's questioning, it's better to stay at the hospital with Fold Ear and help her get food.

The deeper reason is that Bai Luoqin and Chu Nian, Lin Xiaoxiao and Mao Bailing all had unexpected accidents and would not be able to come for at least half a year.

If Xinggui has any instructions, they all have to work overtime.

This is also the main reason why Zhe'er and Huahua were so listless and dispirited during their illness.

Since no one was willing to help her, Hua Hua decided to take matters into her own hands and be extremely vigilant. She was determined that there was no way she could find a partner!

Xuanmeng looked at the trial returning to normal and revealed a satisfied smile, but it looked particularly sinister, with a sense of satisfaction after tricking someone.

When it comes to the trials of adulthood for children, it should be the children who do it. What's the point of having the four of them involved?

Since you don't want to go on vacation, then let's work overtime!
If Aci finds out about the dereliction of duty, her subsequent plans will not be completed.

The world consciousness of the world in which one undergoes the adult trial and receives the inheritance will take responsibility; if not, someone else will take over.

Xuanmeng had originally prepared a grand prize for the four of them. She had even contacted other world consciousnesses to arrange free travel to other worlds as a work benefit, citing their outstanding performance as the reason for winning the year-end bonus.

Highly skilled cultivators must report to the authorities or have a mission to travel to other worlds in order to obtain a temporary permit. Those without a permit are considered illegal immigrants, and only those with a valid travel permit to that world can travel freely.

The rules of the world have never been kind to stowaways, especially given the recent case of a highly skilled evil cultivator attempting to capture a chosen one to increase his own fortune, and even trying to control certain small worlds.

However, Xuanmeng's smugness vanished in less than three seconds.

Several people made excuses to avoid going, so they had no choice but to accept her ruthless and merciless actions.

"Heh! Heh! Heh!" The evil witch laughed, thinking, "If you don't want to go on vacation, then you might as well work overtime."

The next moment, the woman in red came in carrying a huge pile of documents. She looked at Xuanmeng with a mysterious smile and shouted, "Wake up, wake up! This is not the time for daydreaming. Your vacation is over. You need to deal with the pile of world-related chores."

The kitten frowned, and Xuanmeng tried to bluff her way out: "Can you do it, Ayi?"

"Auntie? What auntie?" The woman in red slammed the documents down on the table. "This is your problem, don't expect me to share it with you."

She became increasingly angry as she spoke, "The company's internal affairs were completed long ago. If it weren't for the reports from various parts of the world, we wouldn't be here working overtime for you."

Seeing the storm approaching, Xuanmeng quickly got to work, trying to avoid the red-clothed woman's wrath.

Seeing her working so honestly, Hongyi felt a sense of relief. If only she could always work so honestly and not try to get away with anything.

It's a pity there are no "what ifs." If there were, it would definitely be in a parallel universe where there would be a peaceful and law-abiding Xuanmeng.

The parents were working overtime and didn't have a chance to go home, so they didn't find out that Hua Hua and the others were hospitalized, especially since they were deliberately hiding it.

The fawn was particularly frustrated because it couldn't find any trace of the person it was looking for, and when it asked the foxes, they wouldn't say a word.

At mealtimes, the food on the table is refreshed on time, as if the friends are playing the role of the Snail Fairy, who can't catch the snail even if she wants to.

Inside the hospital, after entering the ward, Qiye wiped non-existent sweat from her forehead and whispered to her companions, "I almost got spotted by Luzai when I went to deliver food. Next time, Yu-jie should go."

"Okay," Sister You replied to Lu Zai.

"Honestly, I feel like the fairy tale fairy godmother right now," Qi Ye said again.

Lying in her hospital bed, Zhe'er retorted, "There are no fairy tales about snail maidens, and there are even fewer in reality."

Her friends surrounded her, sitting around her, but she would dislike anyone who got too close.

"You're not going to sleep here tonight, are you? I don't need anyone to stay with me."

Qingxuan said, "But we need to. We feel terrified even going home now, so we might as well listen to some gossip at the hospital."

Qi Ye wholeheartedly agreed. He munched on the apple given to him by the patient in the next bed, speaking somewhat indistinctly, "Besides, we're all patients in the same room, so it's very friendly. Sister, if you need anything else, just let me take care of it, as long as you don't mind us staying here and freeloading."

The girl in the next bed, who had just been admitted yesterday, said, "How could that be? We welcome you all very much."

The other patients in the other beds echoed this sentiment.

"We've been brothers who've read gossip and played games together, so there's no need to be polite. I'll carry you another day."

"Sister, share your ID with me, I'm cheering you on and I'm going to keep shipping this couple."

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

In the game, Lu Zai was feeling down because she couldn't find her companions for several days in a row. It was inevitable that she would feel lonely without everyone around. However, Ling Xia, the little sun, would always actively accompany her to do daily tasks after she logged on.

"Sister, sister, where are we going today?" Ling Xia started calling for her sister a few days ago after learning it was Lu Zai's birthday.

"How about we go on a trip? Like the other travelers in the game, see the scenery in the game, and take photos that belong to us."

Ling Xia readily replied, "Okay."

Driven by instinct, she enjoyed snuggling close to the deer. To Lingxia, even though they had only known each other for a few days, she felt like a longtime best friend or sister. Over the next few days, they planned their travel route, both wearing specially designed warm gear that made them light and agile.

They went to see the snow-capped mountains in the game together. During the climb, other players experienced an avalanche, and with the added bonus of the travel itinerary, they were not seriously injured. Instead, they had an ice cave adventure.

After their frozen adventure, the two received a special blue ice souvenir, which they could use to craft equipment or souvenirs.

"Here, the ice flower I carved, isn't it pretty?" Ling Xia carefully carved a small piece of blue ice with a sharp blade, and after more than ten minutes, a pure blue ice rose bloomed in her hand.

"Beautiful." Lin Shilu praised sincerely. She knew that it would take a long time to make a carving like the one Ling Xia had.

"Then this is for you." Ling Xia handed her the lifelike pure blue rose in her hand.

[You have received a souvenir from player Linxia—a pure blue rose!]

(This souvenir is carved from pure blue ice obtained from the Frozen Adventure. It was handcrafted by the player Linxia and has the permanent properties of blue ice. It is cold-resistant, drop-resistant, and will not melt. Wearing it in the summer will grant you a cooling effect.)

Souvenir Attributes: Increases player's cold resistance; adds 20 to the character's appearance when equipped; can be placed in personal collection.
"Keep it as a memento." Ling Xia's words left no room for refusal. "If I'm gone in the future, you can remember me through this."

"Let's go, I see a plain down the mountain, let's go grass skiing. The grass skiing mode in the game is definitely not the same as in reality, there are no bugs."

Lin Shilu asked in confusion, "Have you ever skated on grass in real life?"

"I can't remember exactly, but the moment I saw you, my heart started pounding. I was smitten with you, like we were destined to be best friends, so compatible, just like me. It's like I knew all your likes and dislikes, and you knew mine too."

Ling Xia flashed a big smile, looking very sunny and cheerful.

"What's wrong? You didn't mistake me for someone else, did you?" She snapped her fingers, her tone lively, and waved her hand in front of her eyes.

With Ling Xia by her side, Lin Shilu felt free to speak her mind and didn't hide anything, nodding in response, "Mm."

"That's okay, I'm with you now anyway. Want to hold hands?" Ling Xia didn't care who Lu Zai mistook her for, as long as it was her at this moment. It didn't matter if it wasn't her or not, she would fight for it anyway, and the best friend position would definitely be hers!

In the hospital, Folded Ear sneezed. She was telling a fanfiction story to the girl in the next bed. Her hands were not convenient for typing or searching, but she could dictate.

"What's wrong? Big brother? Are you okay? Do you have a cold? Are you alright?" The girl was extremely nervous. Could it be that the big brother she had her eye on first was now unable to speak to her?

"It's nothing, it's just that I feel like my position as Lu Zai's number one best friend is in jeopardy." The position of the number one steward is absolutely not one that can be lost to others.

"It's alright, author. I believe you can definitely keep your position. But if, and I mean if, I've actually read a lot of stories where childhood sweethearts can't always beat someone who suddenly appears out of nowhere."

An Zhe'er didn't care. "It's okay. I'm the latter. I was sent from the sky."

"I've brought the food." Qi Ye and Hua Hua went to the hospital cafeteria to get their meals, and also got food for the other patients in the ward.

"Let's eat first," Folded Ear said to the girl. "After we eat, I'll tell you about my childhood sweetheart and me. It's all based on true stories. Don't ask how much of it is true; it's all fan fiction with permission."

The girl looked touched and said, "Okay!" It shouldn't be called touching, but rather she was so excited that she gave a maternal smile.

[You have received a hand-woven clover wreath from player Linxia!]

[You have received a four-leaf clover bracelet as a gift from player Seven-Colored Deer!]

(This souvenir—a hand-woven alfalfa wreath—is a limited-time offer for grass skiing during the trip: travel souvenirs can be placed in your personal exhibition hall or collection hall, and can also be equipped with attribute bonuses. The souvenir attributes are as follows: Luck bonus of 10, Appearance bonus of 5.)
(Four-leaf clover bracelet: During the weaving of this bracelet, because the weaver had beautiful hopes and blessings in his heart, wearing this wreath will give you a wish bonus.)

If you have high expectations, completing this task will grant an additional 30% luck bonus on top of your original luck stat. This bonus does not conflict with the bonus from drinking a luck potion.
……

[Note: Due to a talent-related issue, all traces of the other person will be completely concealed after leaving. But don't worry, when the time comes, another person's image will reappear in these photos that belong to one person, originating from...? The souvenirs given will also reappear with their real names.]

Despite their elaborate efforts to conceal their tracks and their subsequent silence, Lin Shilu and Ling Xia spent a wonderful time alone in the game, just the two of them.

When Zhe'er and the others returned home, Ling Xia also felt something and said goodbye to the deer cub. Little Sun Ling Xia was born prematurely to comfort the deer cub, and her core obsession was only one: that the summers you are here will never be lonely or desolate.

So when the fawn is no longer lonely or forlorn, her wish has been completely fulfilled.

Not long after Ling Xia left, only one person remained in the photos taken by the two during their trip, and the souvenirs they gave each other had their names blurred out in the system introduction.

When the trial ends, the photo that belonged to one person will reappear showing traces of both people.

During this time, the story between the two of them was only heard by Zhe'er from Lu Zai much later, but of course, that's another story.

Have you ever seen a summer sun shower?

As the raindrops glistened in the sunlight, they fell silently. With a gentle breeze, butterflies hidden under the leaves revealed themselves. It wasn't just humans seeking shelter from the rain; animals were doing the same.

Deer live in the forest, and they will gladly accept this sun shower, enjoying the caress of the rain and the warmth of the sun.

After a sun shower, a rainbow may appear in the sky, like a miraculous firefly on a midsummer night. This is an extremely rare sight, and once you have seen it, you will never forget it. It is a wonderful adventure.

Each deer has its own sun shower and its own little sun; this is a miracle unique to them.

After a day of grass skiing, you'll find your clothes covered in all sorts of insects and fresh dew. Don't wear casual clothes. Don't go early in the morning, and your mouth will be full of insects—if you ask, it's an extra meal, a whole insect feast.
