Chapter 484 Jealousy
Huangfu Miaomiao lowered her head again and whispered, "Feng Ling is not that kind of person."

"Which kind? You mean, she is not the kind of person who is only interested in profit?" Meteor asked with amusement.

Huangfu Miaomiao said nothing.

Her brain is not smarter than others, and the more she speaks, the more mistakes she makes, so she chooses to remain silent.

but……

Even though she felt that there might be a trap hidden in every word of Liu Xing, she was still willing to listen to him, because being alone was too hard to endure. Not only was she enduring loneliness, but she was also constantly experiencing the horror of not being able to feel alive.

It was like a grass sealed in a cement coffin, completely isolated from the outside world. There was no sunlight or water, no color or sound, even the air had stopped flowing. It was terrifying.

Huangfu Miaomiao felt that if she continued like this, she would "wither" before the bishop of the Star Society sent someone to kill her.

Meteor said, "She may not be a profit-seeking person, but you don't need to think too highly of her. You two are on opposite sides of the spectrum. Even if there is friendship between you, how much of it is real? Just look at the cards she chose for you and you'll see. There isn't a single mind control card."

"There are few mind control cards... Feng Ling and I have never encountered them..." Huangfu Miaomiao defended in a low voice.

Meteor glanced at her and asked with a smile, "If you meet her, do you think she will give you the card?"

Huangfu Miaomiao pursed her lips.

"The answer is - no." Meteor chuckled, "Haha! The hidden boss gave you the card because she needs you, but the card she gave you is definitely not suitable for you, because she is always on guard against you, little skeleton, you have misplaced your loyalty and are living in confusion. You should think carefully about what you really want."

"You don't have to try every means to sow discord between Feng Ling and me..." Huangfu Miaomiao said in a gloomy tone, "Feng Ling has already given me what I want."

Meteor was slightly stunned.

She had read some of Huangfu Miaomiao's memories and didn't find that Feng Ling had given her anything special.

Huangfu Miaomiao is very defensive, and if Liuxing asks directly, the other party may not answer.

Therefore, Liuxing is ready to completely deny Huangfu Miaomiao. In order to maintain her friendship with the Hidden Boss, Huangfu Miaomiao will probably go to great lengths to give arguments and examples to refute her point of view.

"She didn't give you anything. Even if she gave you something, it was to bribe you." Liu Xing said, "You have also helped her a lot, so you two are even. From now on, you have to live for yourself and think about what you really want in your heart."

Huangfu Miaomiao moved her lips and whispered, "I want... a peaceful life."

"A peaceful life?" Meteor sneered. "You mean a life where you have to beg for mercy from the hidden boss, eat and wait for death? A life like that?"

"I don't know..." Huangfu Miaomiao looked confused, and her heart was also confused. "There is a place to live, hot water for bathing, people to talk and laugh while eating, people to ask for help when encountering troubles, hard work will definitely be rewarded, no need to worry about getting hurt, and full of expectations for every day... Maybe this is this kind of life..."

While listening, Liuxing recalled the fragments of Huangfu Miaomiao's memories.

Pictures emerged in her mind.

Those pictures are everyday, trivial, insignificant, but also down-to-earth, secure, and worry-free.

Once upon a time, she had also dreamed of such a life and fought for it as an ideal. But the reality was so cold and cruel that what she finally got was betrayal, separation, and endless imprisonment and torture.

She failed.

It's ironic that a loser is here to laugh at a player who has realized his dream.

Meteor had been silent for too long, and Huangfu Miaomiao couldn't help feeling a little nervous. She hoped that there would always be someone talking around her, even if it was just the sound of breathing. In this maze, she needed some movement to remind herself that she was not a forgotten soul.

"Why don't you speak?" Huangfu Miaomiao asked Meteor in the cage.

Liu Xing raised his eyelids, glanced at Huangfu Miaomiao, and said sarcastically: "I will be tired of trying to sow discord all the time. Can't I take a break for a while?"

Huangfu Miaomiao lowered her head awkwardly, "Oh..."

Neither of them spoke.

The air seemed to freeze, and the extreme silence made Huangfu Miaomiao feel tormented. She buried her head and dug into the ground, her nails scraping against the rough rock again and again, making a single rhythmic friction sound.

after a long time.

Meteor said: "I know why you don't want to log off."

"......Ah?" Huangfu Miaomiao looked up at her.

"You are reluctant to leave the hidden boss." Meteor thought for a moment and adjusted his sentence. "To be more precise, you are reluctant to leave this world. You are like a girl with a severe internet addiction, indulging in the virtual world and unwilling to face reality."

Huangfu Miaomiao bit her lower lip silently.

"There's no point in lingering on." Meteor said calmly, "Whether you like it or not, you have to face reality sooner or later. The official recommendation for game duration is no more than 8 months. The longest game duration in history is 16 months. It is said that after that player quit the game, all aspects of his body function were severely damaged."

"I know..." Huangfu Miaomiao frowned and whispered, "I will log off after 8 months."

Meteor said: "After you log off, you will feel very miserable. You will miss the life in the game and want to log in again. But once you really do this, you will take a life, unless the identity you log in as happens to be a death row inmate who has committed all kinds of evil and deserves to die. Maybe there is a glimmer of hope that you can be forgiven by the hidden boss, but how can you get such a login identity? Random matching obviously won't work. You can only spend points to match a second time, a third time... until all your points are used up."

"I will hold back." Huangfu Miaomiao's voice became smaller and smaller, "I will hold back from logging in..."

"You will log in." Liu Xing said firmly, "Sooner or later, your points will be used up. Unless you can find other ways to gain points, you will have no choice but to log in. By then, you and the hidden boss will be mortal enemies. Even if she wants to let you go, the humans around her will stop her from going astray."

Huangfu Miaomiao's eyes were red and she felt like crying.

She obviously hadn't reached that point yet, but based on Meteor's description, she felt that she was already in a desperate situation.

“Why can an administrator…” Her tears fell to the ground, and she choked, “Why, an administrator can connect to this world without logging in, how great it would be if I were an administrator… how great it would be if I were a person from Upper City…”

She was jealous of Li Qing.

Very, very jealous of him.
