"It's a fucking earthquake!"

Su Cheng stood up with a pale face, suppressing the pain in his heart and trying hard to suppress the huge fear in his heart. He rushed out of the door and went to the next room, wanting to escape with Sister Xue according to the previous emergency drill.

But when he opened the next room, he found Sister Xue already sitting in a wheelchair. She looked serious and anxious as she shouted to her, "I'm fine. Go check on the other children and don't let them get into danger!"

But just as she finished her words, the old fan hanging on the ceiling suddenly made a "click" sound, as if it was about to fall down, and below it was exactly where she was.

Su Cheng was horrified, and at the moment the fan fell, he rushed forward, grabbed Sister Xue from the wheelchair and tried to roll to the edge of the bed, but he was still too slow!

Su Cheng gritted his teeth and held Sister Xue in his arms. He looked at the falling fan and stretched out his right hand to try to block the impact force of the fan.

But at this moment,

He suddenly remembered that he had spatial abilities.

So, I silently thought to myself:

Put it into the system space!

The next second, the fan disappeared without any warning the moment it touched his skin.

Su Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Sister Xue's slender waist tightly. The familiar fragrance lingered around his nose, and his heart finally settled down a little.

Sister Xue opened her eyes wide in disbelief and looked at him, her heart filled with shock. She had never imagined that her little Orange could make such a big thing disappear out of thin air.

However, Su Cheng was in no mood to pay attention to all this. He struggled to stand up, and forced himself to hold Sister Xue in his arms in a princess hug as they ran outside. Although he didn't have much strength, at this moment he felt that he had endless strength.

The entire welfare home’s staff and caregivers were also evacuating in an orderly manner. Emergency drills like this are conducted once a year, so the welfare home did not appear to be too panicked because everyone had their own tasks.

He closed his eyes tightly and kept holding Sister Xue in the princess hug position on the playground. The noise, crying and comforting sounds around him kept coming into his ears, but he seemed to be unable to hear them.

Because of his,

The mental and psychological defenses have completely collapsed!

It's not because I was scared or anything else.

Although it is true that what happened today has left him with an indelible shadow, it is more because of -

【Ding--】

A clear and cold mechanical electronic female synthesized voice sounded.

【Ding--】

[Ding! Mission triggered]

[Target: Gu Ruoxue]

[System: Current target progress bar 10%]

[Phase 2: Become friends with Gu Ruoxue]

[Limited time: three days]

【Completion Reward: 10%】

[Failure penalty: unknown]

Su Cheng's whole body was shaking violently and his head was buzzing.

He knew the punishment was coming and was mentally prepared.

But... he really couldn't stand it.

This is even more terrible than killing him!

He would rather endure the punishment of being cut into pieces.

Can……

This quest will reappear even if you fail.

He has to finish...

"According to the Yan State Seismic Network, at 0:1 a.m. on xx/xx/xxxx, a magnitude 25.3 earthquake occurred at the junction of xx County, x County, and xx County in xx City, xx Province (104.9°N, 4.2°E), with a focal depth of 12 kilometers."

Hearing the sound of the radio next to him, he finally came to his senses and looked around.

At this moment, the noise from the entire welfare home, the sounds of the ambulance, paramedics, crying, etc. came together to form a chaotic noise, making the night even more noisy and chaotic.

He knew that all this was caused by him, and because of him, this disaster happened.

All kinds of emotions came flooding in, Su Cheng's heartbeat became faster and faster, blood circulation became more and more difficult, he felt dizzy and lost the ability to think.

"It was a weak earthquake, and no one was injured in the welfare home."

Sister Xue in his arms seemed to sense his emotions and gently patted his shoulder and whispered.

He did not ask how the electric fan disappeared just now, but suppressed his curiosity. Instead, he realized that Su Cheng was very abnormal, so he comforted her.

Her voice was like sweet spring water that moistened his dry heart, alleviating some of the panic and fear in his heart. He squeezed her wrist hard, trying to steady himself, and thanked her softly: "Sister Xue, thank you."

"Put me down. I can stand on my own."

Su Cheng hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but finally decided to listen to her and slowly put Sister Xue aside.

That night, with the help of rescue workers, everyone set up temporary tents on the playground to stay overnight.

Since the accident happened very suddenly and caught us off guard, the conditions were not very good.

Fortunately, there were no casualties in the welfare home and everyone is safe and sound, but the exact number of casualties from this earthquake can only be known through statistics tomorrow.

Three o'clock in the evening.

Su Cheng walked out of the welfare home in a daze, his eyes dazed and he wandered aimlessly on the street.

Even though he believed he was an adult who had died, he still couldn't control his fear, panic, terror, and helplessness in this situation...

for a long time.

He stopped at the foot of an unfinished building.

This unfinished building was filled with the stench of dampness and decay, but Su Cheng was completely unaware of it. Instead, he walked up to the highest point, found a random stone pillar, sat down, and leaned his back against it.

But his hand accidentally touched something in the bottle, so he picked up a bottle and smashed it against the wall with all his strength. With the sound of glass breaking, he lay on his back on the ruins and screamed and shouted hysterically.

He was filled with sadness, helplessness, and...anger and confusion.

Even more unexpected...

He will be punished like this.

He also clearly realized that his existence would only bring more misfortune to the world, and he hated this situation that he was powerless to change or resist.

A few minutes later.

His tears had long since dried up, and now all he had left were numb, empty eyes, as if his soul had been lost along with his tears.

a long time.

He regained a little clarity of mind, lay on the top of the unfinished building, turned his head to look at the dark sky without railings, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. It was a smile of relief.

Then he stood up unsteadily and prepared to try to jump from a high place.

Death is the only way to resist this damn fate.

It is also the only way.

He thought, maybe he was dead.

Maybe I can seal/kill this damn system.

But just as he was about to jump, a huge pulling force dragged him backwards. He staggered a few steps and almost fell to the ground. The feeling of the ground under his feet brought him back to his senses instantly.

He looked up and saw——

Chapter 6

He looked up and saw——

It was a face that seemed to never have any expression, staring at him coldly.

Even in the darkness at this moment, I can feel her holy eyes as bright as moonlight.

“Are you afraid of earthquakes?”

The girl's voice was indifferent and distant. It sounded calm but revealed an oppressive force that was hard to conceal.

However, when Su Cheng heard the voice and raised her head, and saw Su Cheng's eyes and expression, her brows furrowed slightly.

I originally thought that the other person wanted to commit suicide because his relatives died in the earthquake...

But now she clearly realized that this seemed not to be the case... There was no sadness in that look, from the initial surprise to subconscious hatred, to struggle and finally to calmness.

This made her feel that the reason for his suicide seemed to be closely related to her, and even contained another layer of meaning. Even though there were so many interpretations, it was just a calm analysis from the perspective of an observer. It was not certain.

Su Cheng didn't understand why such an unreal woman existed in this world.

Just looking at her perfect and flawless face, one can only sigh that the Creator is too partial.

"Yes, I'm scared. I'm so scared that I want to jump right off the bed when I see you."

Su Cheng replied in a flat voice: "What are you doing here in the middle of the night, Senior Sister Gu? Are you here to admire the way I dance?"

When he said this, Su Cheng still looked empty and decadent. The violence he had just had on the verge of collapse was no longer in his eyes, and only calmness remained.

"The earthquake area is not far from where I live. I came out to take shelter from aftershocks and help out. It seems that I picked a good time."

"Oh, really? Then you are quite enthusiastic and brave. Not bad, it fits your perfect beautiful girl character."

Slowly but surely he smoothed out the wrinkles in his clothes.

"It's late. I'm going back to bed. Bye."

After saying that, Su Cheng was about to walk around Gu Ruoxue, but as they passed by, he whispered.

"You're lying. Are you planning to move to another place to commit suicide?"

Her clear and pleasant voice was slightly hoarse. For some reason, she could feel that Su Cheng wanted to commit suicide in another place, purely because he didn't want to implicate her here.

Moreover, this person exuded a deadly aura that seemed to indicate that he was determined to die, which made her doubt whether her judgment was correct. After all, even someone who wanted to commit suicide would not adopt such a resolute attitude.

The point is, the strong repressed emotions are brewing in him, making people follow his steps and sink into something suffocating.

He had an intuition that if he continued to stop him, he might discover some secrets that could explain all his strange behaviors.

Su Cheng asked, "What are you talking about? Where is the evidence?"

The girl in front of him seemed to have the ability to read minds, which made him curious.

"The emotion on your face betrays you."

"That's it?"

"That's it."

Su Cheng stared silently at the girl in front of him who was as holy as the moonlight. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Are you the Virgin Mary?"

"No."

The girl's voice remained calm.

"If it's not you, why are you stopping me?" Su Cheng lost his patience and asked bluntly, "What benefit can you get from meddling in other people's business?"

"Because your heart tells me that you don't want to die yet." The girl replied: "Out of personal rules and as a good citizen and classmate, I will try my best within my ability. After all, every living life in this world is worthy of respect."

Su Cheng sneered, "I don't need other people's sympathy. Do you think of yourself as a savior? And this matter has nothing to do with you. Please get out of the way!"

"Even though you say that." Gu Ruoxue shook her head, "The fact that you're still arguing with me here shows that you don't really want to give up."

The scene in front of her couldn't help but remind her of her childhood friend. Due to a certain incident, the two of them had lost contact, but she still vaguely remembered what the other person had said to her.

"People have no real control over their own destiny. No matter how hard they try or what choices they make, the final outcome will be determined by fate."

A girl with a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye emerged in her mind. She had a stunning and aloof appearance, but her voice unexpectedly revealed a compassionate charity. This was still fresh in her memory and she was unwilling to forget it.

Su Cheng was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly took a few deep breaths and glared at Gu Ruoxue.

"Okay, you want to know, right? Then watch carefully!"

He suddenly stretched out his right hand, and under Gu Ruoxue's puzzled gaze, a huge old electric fan suddenly appeared out of thin air and fell heavily to the ground.

Paji——

The electric fan broke into pieces and several small pieces flew towards her. They hit her pants, fell to the floor, rolled a few times and stopped moving.
