Chapter 33: Reluctant Consensus

Lan Tong's words were so absolute and confident that Lu Li had an illusion that she, the person hiding in the dark, was now in the open.

It was obvious that she had not communicated much with Lan Tong, but Lan Tong was able to piece together her inner thoughts from various clues.

Lu Li couldn't help but feel a little wary of Lan Tong.

The ungrateful person is not to be feared; what is feared is the ungrateful person who is smart and greedy.

"Are you saying this to increase your leverage?"

Lan Tong had some ideas. It was impossible to get rid of Lu Li now. If she could borrow Lu Li's ability to leave this world, it would make up for the two times she used the cleansing pills.

She changed the subject and her tone became calm.

"It's not impossible to cooperate with you, but we need to break down the specific situation. It won't work if you have the final say alone."

Lu Li heard the hidden meaning of Lan Tong's words. She sneered and said with a hint of threat: "I'm really giving you face by letting you cooperate with me. If I can't control you, can I still lock you up?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his soul being extracted from his body again and his head was spinning. Seeing that his body was about to lose control, Lan Tong quickly grabbed the edge of the table and tried his best to resist this force.

Lu Li's threat did not soften Lan Tong's attitude, but instead made her even more radical and harsh.

"If you can ensure that you won't kill weird creatures in the dungeon in the future, then you can lock me up as you please. If you have the guts, lock me up for life. Otherwise, I will replace you immediately if I get the chance! Once I take over this body, I will die immediately. I will die with you, and no one else will survive!"

Lan Tong's furious voice echoed in his mind.

Gradually, she felt the soul-draining power slowly disappear.

"What a madman!"

Lu Li cursed, but stopped the action of trying to take back his body honestly.

"I am so unlucky to have the same body as you! I warn you, if anything unexpected happens while you are in control of this body, I will make you wish you were dead!"

Seeing that Lu Li finally let go, Lan Tong also breathed a sigh of relief.

If she really had to die with Lu Li, she would be the first one who didn't want to.

There is no way, the gap in strength between her and Lu Li is still quite large.

This desperate method is the only way to regain sovereignty over your body.

Lu Li gradually became silent, as if she had never appeared. Lan Tong just thought she was dead again and ignored her.

……

Mom prepared the meal and brought it to the table. There wasn't even a vegetable leaf, only a pot full of braised pork.

My sister turned and shouted to my father in the living room.

"Dad, it's time to eat."

Lan Tong clearly saw that his father's body stiffened.

He stood up very slowly, his expression was completely different from that in the morning. The flash of resentment on his raised face was blocked by his quick lowering of his head.

"I...I won't eat. I ate too much this morning and I'm not hungry now."

Dad's voice sounded a little guilty, with a hint of awkward smirk.

After he finished speaking, he quickly walked back into the house.

Lan Tong subconsciously glanced at her sister and mother.

My sister didn't care about it and picked up her chopsticks to start eating.

"It seems that only Fubao and I are lucky enough to enjoy this braised pork."

Mom stood by the table with empty eyes, like a mannequin.

There's something wrong with mom and dad. Mom became stunned after seeing the explosion in the market, and dad... Lan Tong felt that he must have experienced something during that time at noon that caused him to become like that.

My sister took a big bite of meat, her cheeks puffed up, and she chewed for a long time before swallowing it. After eating, her face looked very satisfied.

She watched Lan Tong pick up the chopsticks but not move, and urged, "Fubao, you eat too."

Lan Tong asked tentatively: "Isn't mom going to eat? Why is she standing by the table without moving?"

"She..."

The younger sister gave a mysterious smile and said, "Mom doesn't have to eat anymore from now on." Lan Tong realized that the plot might have changed.

"What do you mean?"

"On the surface."

My sister picked up another large piece of meat and put it into her mouth, mumbling to herself: "It's so delicious."

Lan Tong looked at the pot of greasy meat, and the chewing sound beside her ears made her feel a little nauseous.

The mother, a character who appears frequently in the rules, has inexplicably become like this. I guess the situation at home must have changed.

The rules only say that mom will be angry if you don’t finish your meal, but mom looks dazed now, so she probably doesn’t have the brains to be angry with her.

Lan Tong put down his chopsticks and stood up and said, "I have no appetite, you eat by yourself."

"That's such a pity."

The younger sister didn't stop her, but every time she spoke in such a gentle tone, Lan Tong felt that she had bad intentions.

Mom didn't move either.

Just as Lan Tong walked to the door of the house, she suddenly heard her sister crying.

[4. My sister likes to stay up late and wakes up very late every day. You can't wake her up before she wakes up. Sometimes she will cry suddenly, you can go over to comfort her. ]

The rules mention what to do when your sister cries.

The wording is not accurate. It can be said that comforting my sister when she is crying is a selective act.

Lan Tong hesitated for a moment, feeling that neither option was a good one.

The only big monster in the copy was crying, but it seemed that it was not her turn to comfort him.

To put it bluntly, since Lan Tong entered this dungeon, there has only been one strange quest.

That is to find a way to kill her.

The purpose of the big demon is linked to the plot, and the fact that the purpose can be to kill her is unchangeable.

Lan Tong hesitated because she wanted to take on a side quest and leave early.

If you want your family to believe the truth about your brother's death, you must try your best to have a good relationship with your sister.

Thinking of this, Lan Tong walked back silently.

My sister sat in a wheelchair, covering her face and crying, tears dripping through her fingers.

She cried so hard that her shoulders couldn't stop shaking.

But Lan Tong didn't dare to look at it any longer, for she was afraid of meeting the face on the back of her sister's head.

After a while, the sister's crying gradually became quieter, and Lan Tong pretended to be concerned and asked.

"what happened to you?"

The younger sister raised her head, her red and swollen eyes filled with tears. Her dark pupils seemed to become a mirror under the water light, reflecting Lan Tong's look at the ceiling.

The younger sister sniffed, reached out her hand pitifully and tugged at the corner of Lan Tong's clothes, and asked: "You... why are you raising your head and not looking at me..."

"..."

Only a devil wants to see her distorted frog eyes!
Lan Tong pretended to rub his neck and leaned back, then quickly pulled the corner of his clothes back.

"I think I have a stiff neck, and my neck hurts... Let's not talk about me for now, what's wrong with you?"

The younger sister wiped the tears from her face and said aggrievedly: "My legs can't be cured, so I can only stay at home as a disabled person... If I could walk normally, I could go out to work and make money like my brother..."

"..."

It was also at this time that Lan Tong suddenly realized something.

The big monsters are the strongest beings in the copy. Not to mention things like disabled legs, even if they only have a head left, they can rebuild a body for themselves.

Why is my sister still sitting in a wheelchair even though she is already a big demon?
Why would I cry about this in front of her when I know full well that I have the ability to recover?

"Fubao." The younger sister's voice was no longer crying. She asked, "Do you think I am a burden if I am alive?"
