Poverty makes me capable of anything.

That's way too exaggerated!

An Ran was dumbfounded by Zhou Jieyu's performance.

The will to survive is frighteningly strong.

"How is it?" Zhou Jieyu asked, panting.

An Ran shook her head; she hadn't found anyone yet: "Not yet..."

Before she could finish speaking, a red dot suddenly appeared in An Ran's field of vision.

She raised her pistol, activated [Precision Shot], and with a "bang," the bullet flew ahead.

-121.

A red number immediately appeared on the window of a building across the street.

An Ran leaned back, her back pressed against the wall. Suddenly, a deep scratch appeared on the wall she was facing, and flying stones hit An Ran's arm.

That was close; there was more than one person on the other side.

The person she hit was probably already incapacitated, and his companion was standing right next to him.

Twin Moon City is truly dangerous.

An Ran gestured with her fingers towards Zhou Jieyu.

"Now that I've drawn their firepower, it's your time to shine."

Zhou Jieyu took a deep breath. She had resigned herself to her fate. Since she had accepted the task, she would do her best.

The thought of the reward made Zhou Jieyu feel that she could temporarily overcome her fear.

"Bang bang bang-"

The wall was riddled with bullets, and several bullet holes were punched in it in an instant.

Zhou Jieyu suddenly turned around and stood out. She picked up her pistol, glanced at it casually, and then began to repeatedly press the trigger.

The enemy who was suppressing An Ran with firepower was startled. Just as he turned his gun to attack Zhou Jieyu, An Ran made another move.

The aiming and firing were executed flawlessly. The precise shooting allowed the enemy upstairs to only think "Wow, that was fast!" before being shot in the head.

GG.

"boom!"

An Ran fired another shot, sending another wounded soldier leaning against the window to his death.

A family should be all together; how can you hang a picture of only one person?

"You have killed a Morning Star Rebel fighter and gained 400 Free Experience."

"You have killed a Morning Star Rebel fighter and gained 400 Free Experience."

How beautiful!

That's amazing.

Zhou Jieyu swallowed.

After she fired, she realized that her shots were all over the place and she hadn't even hit the window frame. Unexpectedly, the NPC Anran took care of them all with just two shots.

He really is a big, ruthless guy. If only his attitude wasn't so rude.

"There shouldn't be any problems," An Ran said.

Zhou Jieyu had been standing outside dumbfounded for half a minute. If there were still any people from Morning Star around, she probably would have been shot in the head long ago.

Enron made its decision that this place was safe based on this assessment.

Unfortunately, Zhou Jieyu was still in the dark; she simply assumed that An Ran had drawn this conclusion because she had gotten rid of those two people.

"What if someone is lying in ambush..."

"No, it won't happen." An Ran didn't take it seriously, and her confident demeanor convinced Zhou Jieyu.

So the two walked side by side on the street, with An Ran on the inside and Zhou Jieyu on the outside.

Emmm...

After walking for a while, Zhou Jieyu suddenly discovered something very interesting.

Anran's steps were completely synchronized with hers.

Interesting.

An Ran remained calm and turned to look at Zhou Jieyu.

Well, he's a bit taller and bigger than me, so even if the enemy shoots from above, he'd be a good shield if he led the escape.

The only downside is that once players are killed, their corpses don't last long and disappear quickly.

This feature is known to the natives in the game—the NPCs—so players are collectively referred to as strangers.

Anyway, this world is strange enough, so it's not particularly strange that another group of strangers would appear.

(Since it's an online game, just think of it as the first method in [Night of the Stars])

This problem didn't bother Anran for long. While passing by the entrance of an underground parking garage, Anran spotted a motorcycle with a helmet on it.

"wait!"

After An Ran finished speaking, she ran over and grabbed the helmet.

"Here, take it."

She put the helmet on Zhou Jieyu's head.

"Huh? What are you doing?" Zhou Jieyu looked at An Ran with a puzzled expression. The helmet was a bit too big.

An Ran explained, "Wear a helmet to protect your head."

"..."

Zhou Jieyu felt she was about to be moved; the first helmet had actually been given to her.

This NPC isn't so bad after all.

Chapter 35 I Have a Good Idea

"Thank you."

Zhou Jieyu expressed her gratitude to An Ran.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." An Ran quickly waved her hand.

She turned her face to the side, and her expression suddenly turned strange where Zhou Jieyu couldn't see her.

It's not a big problem; it's actually better that she misunderstood.

The two continued on their journey.

The pace remained coordinated.

?( ??` )( ??` )?

They encountered no danger as they walked until they were near their destination.

Zhou Jieyu stood in front, while An Ran stood behind her skillfully, hiding behind a wall. Zhou Jieyu's gaze fell on a large gate across the street.

Jardine Matheson Hospital.

Four large red characters are written on the stone pillar to the right of the gate.

"Is this the place?" Zhou Jieyu looked up, her round helmet swaying back. Then, out of the corner of her eye, she realized that An Ran's head had somehow appeared on her head.

Emmm...

Zhou Jieyu could only bow to the "big boss".

"Yes, this is the place."

Anran said.

The location marked on the map, Jardine Matheson Hospital, is where Eudora works and is also the closest large hospital to Eudora's home.

A fierce battle seemed to have taken place on the road, which was riddled with potholes and debris, making the road to the hospital less than smooth.

"You go first..."

Before An Ran could finish speaking, Zhou Jieyu interrupted her: "I'll go, I'll go."

His voice carried a sense of resignation.

"..."

Anran reflected for a while, wondering if she was really that terrifying.

While she was reflecting, Zhou Jieyu had already walked out first. She crouched down, timidly and hesitantly, and moved forward step by step, taking a long time to reach the middle of the road.

An Ran's hand, which was holding the gun, was trembling.

This……

Zhou Jieyu felt very secure. Her mission was to act as An Ran's bodyguard and escort An Ran to her destination. With the mission almost completed, how could she sacrifice herself on the eve of "liberation"?

"Let's go quickly."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind her, and at the same time, her helmet was slapped. Zhou Jieyu was so frightened that she sat down on the ground.

Just as she was about to shout that there were enemies, she saw the long hem of her dress flutter past her eyes, and An Ran's small but upright figure appeared directly in front of her and continued to move away.

"Hey, wait for me." Zhou Jieyu jumped up in a flash.

Following closely behind An Ran, she asked doubtfully, "Is it really okay to just walk around like this on the street?"

"What if someone suddenly sticks a gun out the window and shoots us dead?"

An Ran said without turning her head, "If there were really people outside, you would have been riddled with bullets by now, crawling like a tortoise."

"..."

Zhou Jieyu immediately objected: "Even if there was no one there just now, what if an enemy suddenly jumps out now..."

"hehe."
