Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 260 Sister, you like roses?

In the bedroom.

Unable to fall asleep or even dream, Yu Shijiu angrily slapped his pillow and got up with a dark face.

Damn!

I was finally having a sweet dream, and it got interrupted like this!

What's even more infuriating is that he can't even remember what the delicious food he ate in his dream tasted like—

Goo!

Yu Shijiu: "???"

He looked down at his stomach, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears, otherwise how could this be—

Coo-coo!

Yu Shijiu: "..."

He looked down and touched his flat stomach, which had been digested overnight, and finally realized that he had not been hallucinating.

His stomach really growled just now.

"...I'm hungry."

Yu Shijiu belatedly muttered to himself, turning his head to look at the window next to him that was covered by curtains.

Just like before I went to bed last night, the window wasn't blown open by the wind. The curtains hung quietly, and I could faintly see the sunlight outside.

Hungry, Yu Shijiu planned to find something to eat, but before going downstairs, he felt he should open the window to let the room air out.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt like there was a strange, bloody smell in his room—was it because he hadn't washed the clothes he'd taken off last night?

Yu Shijiu stopped thinking about it, got out of bed and immediately ran to another bed, climbed up, and pulled the curtains to the side.

brush-

The curtains were drawn back, and outside the window, the extremely vibrant rose bush, which had grown outwards, looked slightly wilted in the sunlight. In the dead of night, its delicate, verdant petals drooped, faintly tinged with a withered, yellowish hue.

Yu Shijiu: "..."

He looked closely at the roses through the window and was certain that the other person had grown taller overnight.

Last night they were only near the bottom edge of the window, with only the longest and prettiest rose barely touching the glass... But now, the other roses are starting to get closer to the glass too.

It's beautiful... but in a game, such a bizarre situation is bound to be accompanied by varying degrees of danger.

But, so what?

Yu Shijiu smiled and opened the latch on the window glass. With a soft creak as the glass door was pushed open, the window was fully opened.

The roses attached to the bottom of the glass were pushed back, their buds drooping silently in mid-air.

At the same time, the unique fragrance of the roses filled Yu Shijiu's breath, clearing his dizzy head somewhat.

Huh?

Yu Shijiu stared at the roses in surprise, not expecting that they would not harm him at all—could it be that these strangely growing roses actually had no ill intentions towards the players?

Just as Yu Shijiu was about to get out of bed, he suddenly heard the sound of a window opening at the window not far from his.

Yu Shijiu glanced at it subconsciously—

A long-haired woman with half her head sticking out of the window was looking down, holding a pair of scissors that were as big as half an arm, and cutting the roses in front of her.

Click - click - click -

Before long, the woman cut off the stems of all the roses that had grown to the window and picked them up.

It's "Miss".

The young lady was unaware that someone was watching her. After carefully cutting off the stems of all the roses in front of her window and putting them away, she took a step back with some difficulty, holding the large pair of scissors.

Just then, a clear male voice suddenly rang in her ears.

Good morning, sister!

The young woman was startled, and the large scissors in her hand fell to the ground with a "snap," making a piercing sound as they hit the floor tiles.

Yu Shijiu's expression remained unchanged, still smiling, and he even reached out and waved to the young lady who was slowly turning her head.

"Here I am! I'm right here!"

Miss:"……"

Players in front of the screen: "..."

What is this lunatic doing?! Other players are desperate to avoid being remembered by the NPCs, but he's determined to make them remember him! Is he afraid of not having enough hate points?!

At this moment, the young lady also saw Yu Shijiu not far away.

She looked at the boy's smiling face, nodded somewhat hesitantly, and spoke in a very soft voice:

"Good morning."

After saying that, the young lady was about to turn around, but Yu Shijiu called her back:

"Does your sister like roses very much?"

Yu Shijiu looked at her mistress, her gaze falling on the hand that was now pricked by many rose thorns. She flicked the rosebud in front of her and said sweetly:

"It's a pity that the roses here haven't bloomed yet, otherwise I would definitely cut some roses here for my sister."

Miss:"……"

Seeing the handsome and adorable young man beside her staring at her with a grin, the young lady's pale face flushed an eerie red, and she shook her head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Actually, I don't like it that much..."

“I still like them.” Yu Shijiu continued, “When the roses here bloom, I will definitely cut them and give them to you, but I’ll have to borrow your scissors from you then.”

—That pair of scissors looks amazing! Maybe it's a weapon with some kind of strange energy that won't break, just like the fruit knife.

Yu Shijiu, who immediately spotted the scissors, delivered a solid performance:

"Sister, are you hungry? Would you like to come down for lunch together?"

Miss:"……"

She blushed, glanced down at the roses in her arms, and nodded softly:

"I'm a little hungry too, then, let's eat together."

Yu Shijiu laughed even harder: "Okay, okay! Sister, wait for me! I'll put on my shoes and come out right away!"

After saying that, he turned his head away, jumped off the bed, and went to put on his shoes.

My giant scissors! Wait for me!

Miss:"……"

She stared blankly at the empty window not far away for a few seconds.

"...Actually, there's no need to be in such a rush..."

----------

Yu Shijiu quickly put on her shoes and went into the bathroom to wash up. She was extremely busy.

He looked up at himself in the mirror, brushing his teeth while constantly running his fingers through his messy hair.

Yu Shijiu's hair is indeed too long.

When I first entered the game, my hair was only almost down to my shoulders, but now it's hanging down to my shoulders and even longer.

At first glance, she looks like a thin little girl with short hair.

When he was in the sanatorium, the nurses would just casually snip him with scissors.

Yu Shijiu, fiddling with her hair in the mirror: "..."

He spat out the foam in his mouth, made a "pui" sound, and planned to go to town to find a barber to cut his hair after passing this level.

She wasn't some skinny little girl; he was clearly super strong—

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door from the outside.

Yu Shijiu paused while brushing her teeth, then quickly rinsed her mouth and spat out the foam. After casually washing her face with water, she tossed her hair and walked towards the door.

"who--"

Outside the door, Xu Han and He Lingling looked up at the same time, the latter's eyes showing a hint of wariness:

"Just woke up?"
