Text Game: It All Began when a Cat-eared Girl Took Me In-Chapter 167 - 147 Sneaking Ice Cream While Sister is Asleep is Not Okay!_1
Luo Xi lay on the bed, feeling increasingly anxious.
The text card remained motionless.
However, he could still normally take out and put back items from his Dreamland knapsack. He pulled out Cat Cat’s childish drawing for a glance, smiled, and then returned it.
Indeed, it was difficult to handle, and it was unknown how long the frozen state caused by the snow disaster would last.
What if everyone died in the middle of it?
Or what if, after the controlling skills ended, the snow disaster dealt an all-map AOE damage?
Luo Xi himself didn’t really care, but if the others died, once the time passed into the second day, even if he had the power to turn back time with Moonflow, it would be too late to save them.
He finally began to understand why everyone in the Dream world changed their color at the mention of the ’Origin Disaster.’
It was akin to facing natural disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions in the real world—no matter how much humanity has advanced in technology over thousands of years, they still stand frail and vulnerable.
[Note: Damn Traveler, there’s no need to worry so much; this is just a harbinger of the snow disaster. I estimate it will freeze people for one to two days? When the real snow disaster itself arrives, don’t even think about abducting the two beast-eared Lolitas, you’d better start thinking about preparing their graves after the disaster passes]
Damn text, how about I find you a grave first!
Hold on!
A thought crossed Luo Xi’s mind.
The day after tomorrow was supposed to be the Festival Day of the Divine Tree, which was also Wei’er’s birthday.
All the dark tides and conspiracies seemed to point toward that day.
So, what would happen after the thaw if it coincided with that day?
Would the situation get worse or better?
It was completely unpredictable.
Luo Xi closed his eyes and tried to adjust his mentality.
But the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.
He picked up his phone to check the time.
Seven-thirty in the morning.
Right, what about Chu Tian? He must have been kicked out of the game too, right?
Luo Xi vaguely remembered that Chu Tian had previously mentioned his phone number to him.
Should he give him a call and check...
Luo Xi hesitated for a moment, then he picked up his phone and dialed the number Chu Tian had told him.
After spending time together, Luo Xi had already judged that Chu Tian was a decent person, except that his talkative and Cao Zei traits had lowered his personal rating.
The phone rang for quite some time before it was finally picked up on the other side.
"Hello, who is this?"
Luo Xi replied gravely, "It’s me."
There was a pause on the other end: "You are... This voice, is that Luo Xi... Brother Luo?"
Because Wei’er and Aina had called him by his name many times in front of Chu Tian, Chu Tian had actually already known Luo Xi’s real name.
"Yes, it’s me. How’s everything on your end?" Luo Xi asked.
Chu Tian answered weakly, "Don’t even mention it, I damn got logged out. The text says I’m now frozen, can’t die, can’t do anything else."
"Same here."
"Oh man, this game is really tough."
Chu Tian let out a sigh, then changed the subject, "By the way Brother Luo, how did you get along so well with the two beast-eared Lolitas? Spending the night in the same room as them and everything, is that Cat Lady’s mother really as beautiful as the text described? Is she still alive? If there’s a chance, could I... "
"No, I’m hanging up, we’ll talk next time."
The corner of Luo Xi’s mouth twitched as he ended the call.
Chu Tian truly lived up to his reputation as a Cao Zei in every aspect.
What was this? A firm conviction, unforgetting his ideals?
But it looked like Chu Tian couldn’t log in either.
So, all he could do was wait for the time being.
Luo Xi turned over and, smelling the familiar scent on the blanket, gradually regained his calm. Lack of sleep the previous night and a 20% drop in attributes made drowsiness come over him again.
[Note: Damn Traveler, in such a short time, you’ve become accustomed to the scent of the beast-eared Lolitas. You’ve become someone who just can’t do without them~]
Damn text, don’t make me out to be a pervert...
zzZ~
When Luo Xi opened his eyes again, it was already five o’clock in the afternoon.
However, the text still showed no sign of activity.
After having something to eat, Luo Xi lay back down on the bed and sent Ai Xue a message on WeChat.
[Luo Xi: Sorry, I have to take another day off tomorrow... maybe two days, Boss Ai you can deduct it from my salary next month]
[Ai Xue: It’s fine, Senior, take care of what you need to, we won’t deduct your salary, and don’t call me boss! (angry) Call me by my name or Xiao Xue!]
Luo Xi: "..."
The more lenient Ai Xue was towards him, the more Luo Xi felt that what he had done before was quite improper.
[Note: Naive Traveler, you’ve never been in a relationship before, have you? Can’t you see even what a girl is thinking? Well, of course, after all, this world doesn’t have beast-eared Lolitas for you to control~ (laughter)]
Luo Xi (Damn it).
Around the Corner, Meet the Cat Café.
Chen Momo finished making a cup of coffee and placed it on the table for a customer, then turned around and asked:
"Did your senior take another leave?"
"Yes, but the senior also said that I can deduct it from his salary next month," Ai Xue said joyfully. "That means the senior will still come to work next month."
Chen Momo: "..."
This bestie seemed beyond help.
With so many issues surrounding that senior, and as handsome as he looks, who knows if he’s secretly keeping several girlfriends and acting like a playboy. She wouldn’t be surprised if one day it came out that he had been arrested for hitting on underage girls.
...
[Would you like to accelerate the event to the next node?]
Luo Xi didn’t want to keep waiting in such anxiety.
All he wanted now was to know the result after the thaw.
[Yes]
[Accelerating... x30]
Luo Xi watched as the hands on his clock spun rapidly.
Six o’clock, seven o’clock... eleven o’clock, eleven fifty.
Then it passed midnight.
Time continued to flow.
There was still no movement from the text.
His eyelids gradually became heavy again.
After all, this accelerated progress did not mean that he lost this period of time. It was just compressed for him.
One o’clock in the morning... three o’clock in the morning... noon... six in the afternoon.
Suddenly, the text changed!
[Traveler, you are gradually regaining consciousness and you feel your body can move now]
Luo Xi’s spirit immediately lifted!
Damn it, he had been frozen for a full day and a half!
He pulled out the synchronization module.
[Would you like to use Dream Synchronization?]
[Yes]
[Traveler, welcome to the journey of dreams~]
...
///
Inside Winter City.
The heavy snow that had been falling for nearly two days finally stopped. The snow on the streets had accumulated to three meters high, enough to submerge an entire floor of a building.
That which brought deathly silence and icy cold to the people, like a tide, receded. The frost that had frozen their bodies and consciousness vanished, and those still alive regained consciousness. They could not move for a short time, but those who had died had now become frozen corpses.
In the manor, the thick snow was shaken apart, revealing the head of Noss who was standing in punishment.
A faint green light flashed in Noss’s pupils as he muttered to himself, "Luckily, it didn’t take too long. But the precursor to the snow disaster has disappeared, so could its main body appear at any time?"
"Forget it, if it really appears, then it is our destined fate."
At Lena’s Inn.
Behind the door of a room on the second floor.
Luo Xi struggled to move his eyelids.
The first thing he felt was the stiffness of his body.
It was like being drenched in wash water on a cold winter day and hung on a tree to dry in the sun for an hour. He thought if he had been a few days later, he might have turned into a dried salted fish.
However, with the influence of the suppressed Mutant Factor in his body, Luo Xi quickly generated enough heat to dispel the cold.
He barely opened his eyelids.
Luo Xi tried to move his body.
Then, from either side of him came a cute little thing each making a muffled grunt.
"Uwu~"
"Mhm~"
Luo Xi: "..."
Wei’er and Aina ended up being held by him.
Which means, that he had been holding two beast-eared girls here for nearly two days.
Too bad he didn’t feel a thing.
Luo Xi looked up towards the inside of the room.
All five people he had thrown in here showed signs of waking up.
Actually, the room temperature was still quite high. Shopkeeper Lena had installed warming runes and warm stones in every room as heating equipment. It was just that this snow disaster was simply too unreasonable.
Was this the bizarre phenomenon brought by the Origin Disaster that Liya spoke of?
Soon, Luo Xi felt that he could move.
The Mutant Factor in his body gave him a high Resistance to the cold. Once the freeze on his consciousness lifted, Luo Xi’s recovery was so fast it even surprised himself.
This could be seen from the fact that none of the remaining people in the room had gotten up yet.
Luo Xi took off Aina’s hat from her embrace and placed it on his own head. Immediately, the temperature flowing around his body increased by a notch.
He got up, opened the door of the room, and examined the hallway with a hole in it.
The temperature outside was no longer absurdly low.
However, Luo Xi didn’t think this was a good sign.
The calm before the storm was merely a false appearance.
After confirming that the five people in the room were all right, Luo Xi left the room carrying Wei’er and Aina and headed to their room.
After laying the two sisters—who were stiff from the cold—on the bed, Luo Xi brought over the warm stones and placed them all by the bed. He then proceeded to cover them with blankets and the like.
[Note: Garbage Traveler, don’t you think this is a bit dirty? The clothes are fine, but you have to take off socks and shoes before you can get into bed to sleep~]
Luo Xi was startled.
The demands of the Damn Text weren’t unreasonable.
So he helped them take off their shoes.
Wei’er and Aina were wearing slippers, so it was easy for Luo Xi to pull them off.
But the socks...?
Luo Xi glanced at Wei’er’s short cotton socks and Aina’s white long socks.
Is it necessary to take these off?
[Note: (✧◡✧) It’s okay not to take them off, Garbage Traveler. How about taking the chance while they’re still asleep to secretly eat some ice cream? The chilly feeling must taste great!]
Hentai!
Damn Text, you’ve been tempting me twice in a row, haven’t you?
As an upright and noble man, how could I possibly do such a despicable thing!
