Collapse Iron: What does it mean to broaden the fate of four people in one sentence?

Is Mom coming to knock on the door?

Without even thinking, Lin opened the system menu and clicked "Exit Game".

It's a bit of a shame that I didn't finish showing off, but oh well, it's just a game.

Eating with family is more important than playing games.

[Exiting the game....]

Thank you for visiting, and welcome back next time!

His vision went black for a moment, then brightened again, and he was back in his room, wearing those glasses.

Lin Si took off her glasses, stretched, pushed her wheelchair, and walked towards the door.

"Mom! I'm here!"

Chapter 11 Return

Meanwhile, the instant Lin Si withdrew, Bronya's consciousness suddenly returned to her body.

That feeling is hard to describe.

It was like being locked in a dark room for a long time, and suddenly the door was opened, sunlight shone in, and she was finally able to control her body.

Bronya unconsciously moved her fingers.

Active.

She tried raising her arm again.

Active.

She finally regained control of her body!

But the next second, she froze.

Because she found herself maintaining that "unfathomable" posture,

With his back to Cocolia and facing the window, he leaned slightly to the side, one hand behind his back and the other on the windowsill.

Snowflakes drifted slowly down outside the window.

This pose, coupled with those two sentences just now, is indeed very imposing.

The problem is....

She's not that guy called the Demon King!

She didn't know what to say next!

And just now, that demon king suddenly disappeared, and her consciousness returned. What happened in between? Where did that demon king go? Will he come back?

Bronya's mind went blank.

She remained frozen in place, maintaining that posture, not daring to move an inch.

Cocolia waited a while, and seeing that "Bronya" did not respond, she called softly:

"Bronya?"

Bronya's body trembled slightly.

What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?

What should she say? Continue to play the profound one? But she can't!

Turn around? Wouldn't that give us away?

Bronya was screaming inwardly, "How could the Demon King just leave like that?! He could at least have given us a heads-up!"

But on the surface, she could only continue to maintain that position, remaining motionless.

Cocolia looked at her daughter's "back view," a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Is this child... pondering some profound question?

Were she still shocked by those two sentences just now?

She sighed and said softly:

"Never mind, you should rest first."

"Let's talk about those things another day."

After saying that, she turned and left the room.

The door closed gently.

Bronya finally breathed a sigh of relief, almost collapsing to her knees.

She turned around, looked at the closed door, and then looked down at her own body.

She's back. She's finally back.

but....

Will that demon king ever return?

Bronya's feelings were too complex to describe.

She walked to the window, looked at the snow scene outside, and those two sentences kept echoing in her mind.

What use is a plan if the entire army is not united?

I entrust my life to you, my loyal guards, and I will certainly live up to your trust.

She murmured to herself, repeatedly pondering these two sentences.

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that the demon king was no ordinary person.

Who exactly is he?

Why would someone control her body?

Why would someone say something like that?

Why....

How could she so naturally hug and rub against her mother?

Thinking of this, Bronya blushed again.

That bastard! He used her body to hug her mother and even rubbed against her!

Still trying to freeload!

Bronya's fist hardened!

She took a deep breath and decided to stop thinking about it.

He'll come back eventually, right?

After all, he considered it all a game, and he seemed to quite like this game.

The snow outside the window was falling heavier and heavier.

Bronya stood by the window, looking at her reflection in the glass.

That look in his eyes was different from before.

============

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Lin Si was sitting at the dining table, waiting for her mother to bring the food to the table.

"Mom, what are you making today?"

"Braised pork, your favorite."

Lin Si's mother brought over a plate of braised pork with a smile.

"How was the game?"

"It's alright."

Lin Si picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of meat, chewed it, and mumbled something indistinctly.

"It's quite interesting, Mom. Let me tell you, these completely immersive games are definitely the future trend. You and Dad should pay more attention to them..."

Lin Si's mother watched with a smile as Lin Si talked to her about the game, occasionally putting food on his plate and pouring him a glass of water.

She had heard about her son's achievements in the gaming industry; it seemed that he was number one on the charts for most popular games.

Although she didn't understand the use of these firsts, nor did she realize that her son had become a legend in the gaming world.

But as a mother, even if she doesn't understand, seeing her son shine in his favorite field makes her genuinely proud of him.

She listened quietly until Lin Si finished speaking, then she interjected.

“Your dad said you should stay home as much as possible lately, because there seem to be some criminals around Changletian.”

Lin Si paused in her eating, then subconsciously replied:

"Criminals? What kind of criminals would dare to commit crimes in Changletian?"

Changletian is one of the most prosperous areas in Luofu Xianzhou.

The Earth Balance Office is located here, as is the General's Mansion. The Cloud Cavalry patrols pass by here eight hundred times a day.

Which criminal would dare to cause trouble under General Jingyuan's nose?

Is it out of control?

Lin Si's mother picked up a piece of braised pork for her son and tapped his head with her chopsticks.

As a mother, she knew all too well what her son was thinking.

It's nothing more than thinking, "I'll see who's blind enough to cause trouble at Changletian," and then pushing my wheelchair out to join the fun.

"Don't ask about these things."

Lin Si's mother put away her chopsticks, her tone carrying three parts warning and seven parts indulgence.

"Since General Jingyuan hasn't taken any action, he must have his reasons. You should stay home quietly and avoid going out."

Lin Si shrank back after being hit with a chopstick.

"Alright, alright."

He rubbed the spot where he had been hit and muttered something.

“If I need to go out, I’ll let you know in advance. If you and Dad aren’t home, I’ll have Yanqing pick me up. He seems to be quite free lately.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Si's mother covered her face speechlessly.

She naturally knew about that little guy, Yanqing.

The Cloud Cavalry Captain, a personal disciple of General Jingyuan, possesses martial prowess exceeding that of 90% of the Immortal Ship's in just a young age, and may even become the next 'Sword Master' of the Cloud Cavalry.

His future is limitless.

But the problem is, he's a captain in the Cloud Cavalry!

With so many official duties and a ton of things to deal with every day, how could I possibly have time to wander around with my son?

Even if two people are friends, you shouldn't bother them just because you want to go out.

"You better be in trouble."

Lin Si's mother said helplessly.

"Don't bother Yanqing just because you want to go out for a stroll."

Lin Si finished her rice in a few bites without even looking up.

"I know, I know."

He put down his chopsticks and pushed his wheelchair toward the room.

"I'm full, Mom! I'm going back to my room now!"

Lin Si's mother watched his retreating figure and shook her head helplessly.
