Strange Realm: Old Object Collector

Chapter 13 Brother and Sister
  "Xiaoyi, are you tired today? Mom will peel an apple for you to eat."

"no need."

"Remember to go to your cram school. I've already paid for it. You know the timetable."

Mother Chen's voice came from outside.

"I know, Mom." The girl's somewhat cold voice came from outside.

Then, the sound of closing the door sounded.

Chen Wang was speechless.

Why is there such a big difference between going home by yourself and going home with your sister?
  But he shook his head and began to massage his body muscles.

After a workout, if you don’t massage, lactic acid will build up and you’ll be very sore by the next day.

After a while, the sound outside became much quieter, and the sound of the soap opera was turned off.

Chen Wang knew that his cheap parents should go to rest.

After waiting for a while, Chen Wang opened the door and knocked on Chen Yi's door.

"Come in." The girl's cold voice came from the room.

Chen Wang opened the door and entered the room.

Chen Yi's room was several times larger than his.

In the room, there are several wooden shelves filled with books.

Next to the bookshelf is a desk about 1.4 meters long.

At this time, Chen Yi was writing test papers at the desk.

If it weren't for the faint fragrance of a girl in the room, I believe no one would think that this is a girl's boudoir.

"What do you want from me?" Chen Yi put down his pen and looked at Chen Wang with a pair of calm eyes.

Seeing Chen Yi's appearance, Chen Wang was speechless.

This girl really has no respect for her brother at all.

"I recently came into contact with the body of a student from Qingyu No. 1 Middle School at the funeral home. Did something happen at the school recently?" Chen Wang paused and asked.

"I don't know." Chen Yi shook his head slightly and said calmly: "I know that someone died in the school, but I have no interest in this kind of thing. So I don't know much."

"Can you help me ask? The family of the deceased is very concerned about this matter."

Chen Wang continued to ask.

After hearing his words, Chen Yi's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, showing a somewhat embarrassed look.

"If it's too difficult, forget it." Chen Wang saw her appearance and said directly.

"Don't be embarrassed, I will ask for you." Chen Yi said calmly with his brows spread.

"Okay." Chen Wang nodded and prepared to go out.

But before going out, he suddenly thought of something, took out the woven bookmark from his pocket and put it on the desk, "By the way, I saw it on the street when I came back, so I bought it for you. "

Chen Yi was startled when she saw the fabric bookmark on the table, but didn't say anything.

Seeing her like this, Chen Wang froze in place for a moment.

Could it be that this girl saw that this bookmark was cheap and disliked it?

Chen Wang felt a little regretful.

If I had known this, I would have bought some better gifts. This bookmark only costs ten yuan, which is really hard to get.

"Yes." Chen Yi hummed softly, but did not look at the bookmark. He just picked up the pen and continued to write the test paper.

"What does this mean? Accepted or not accepted?"

Chen Wang was speechless when he saw Chen Yi's look.

He had long known that his sister was called Iceberg Beauty by some boys at school.

But he couldn't understand this kind of attitude towards his brother.

Immediately, Chen Wang didn't bother to care about this and went out directly.

If she doesn't refuse, treat it as accepted.

When Chen Wang went out, Chen Yi stopped writing.

She put down her pen, and her long, white fingers landed on the bookmark.

Looking at the bookmark, her emotionless face revealed a look of hesitation. Then she paused and put the bookmark into her pencil case.

……

Silent all night.

When Chen Wang woke up early in the morning, he felt a little sore all over his body.

I did push-ups again after a busy day yesterday, and my body, which had not exercised for a long time, protested.

Even though he had a massage, this body was still too weak.

I looked at the time, half past five.

"This body needs some good exercise." Chen Wang breathed out softly.

Now he only has more than one day left.

Immediately, he opened the door.

After opening the door, he saw Chen Yi washing up in the bathroom.

Chen Wang took one look in the mirror and was stunned.

Because Chen Yi's eyes were a little swollen and there were some dark circles.

He knew his sister very well. Although she studied very hard, she never stayed up late and always went to bed around 11:30.

"Did you sleep well yesterday?" Chen Wang couldn't help but ask.

Hearing his voice, Chen Yi's movements froze, and a touch of pink appeared on her fair neck, crawling towards her ears.

"Yeah." She responded lightly.

After washing, she picked up her book bag and went out.

During this process, she never glanced at Chen Wang.

Chen Wang was very speechless about this.

Even if my brother has no sense of existence, he doesn't need to treat himself like air, right?

Shaking his head, Chen Wang finished washing and went out.

After going out, he first went to the bun shop and bought two buns and soy milk.

After eating, we ran along the urban trails for a while.

What Chen Wang expected was that his body was already out of breath from exhaustion after only running a hundred or two hundred meters.

This body is still a little too weak.

But there is nothing that can be done about it.

Because the college entrance examination is highly competitive, my predecessor was always looking for ways to improve my scores. Therefore, there are very few basic outdoor activities, and my physical fitness has always been very weak.

After that, I dropped out of school and worked overtime at the funeral parlor for a long time, even working day and night.

Although I have gained weight, my body is still weak.

"Too bad..." Chen Wang looked a little ugly.

Although he knew that his physical condition was poor, he did not expect that his physical condition would be so poor.

Now there is only more than one day left before entering the strange realm.

He really couldn't imagine how he could survive in the strange realm.

"We can only take one step and watch one step." Chen Wang exhaled softly, his eyes gradually firming up.

Then, he took a taxi directly and headed to the old city.

Bai Yuying helped him take two days off, so he had more time to complete his old wish.

You can even see if you can find old items at street stalls.

"Little brother, how do you get to the old city? That place is not very peaceful." The driver said to Chen Wang.

Chen Wang was speechless when he heard what he said. Do these drivers have any prejudice against the old city?

When I took a taxi to the old town twice, the driver emphasized that the old town was chaotic.

"Didn't you hear? There was a murder case in the old city yesterday." The driver suddenly said.
