The video suddenly ended, and people in the real world were still immersed in it.
Even on the black screen after the ending, it was still filled with bullet comments sent by netizens.
[miHoYo, who taught you to cliffhang like this?]
[Damn you, the front part made me so thrilled I was flying, now suddenly you stop abruptly again, even a "just stop" isn't this ruthless!]
[Seeing this familiar cliffhanger rhythm, I feel like I saw an old friend...]
[Ahhh! I really want to see the follow-up, really want to know what kind of knife miHoYo will use to cut Van this time!]
[You're not right!]
[Van Protection Association strongly expresses condemnation]
[By the way, brothers, did you notice one issue...]
[There was no next episode preview at the end of this video]
[Damn, really!]
[All too busy scolding miHoYo, forgot this part]
[Cliffhanger again, no next episode preview to satisfy, miHoYo, you already have the way to seek death!]
———
On the other side, even though it was already noisy like the sky turning over on the internet, Van no longer had the heart to pay attention.
Raiden Mei was staring at the already-black screen, not knowing what she was thinking. Her tightly furrowed brows and cold eyes completely revealed the terrible mood of this moment.
Mobius sat on the sofa with legs crossed, with a half-smile observing Van, as if thinking where would be convenient to make a cut.
Himeko directly finished the beer in her hand in one gulp, kindly looking at Van, said,
"Aiya~ Van, didn't expect you're actually quite popular with children?"
Looking at the appearances of the three people, Van's scalp instantly went numb. He thought, if he didn't answer properly this time, he'd probably not see tomorrow's sun.
Fortunately, years of experience hovering at the edge of life and death allowed him to instantly adjust, and calmly said, "You all calm down, this is all a part of the plan... moreover, even taking ten thousand steps back, it's impossible I'd have any thoughts about Ye Shi, she's just a child!"
However, as soon as Van finished speaking, Mobius on the side suddenly interrupted, "Oh? So your meaning is, if she's not a child, then it's okay to make a move?"
At this point, Van had just thought he barely stabilized the situation.
Who knew Mobius' light words directly pushed him to the eye of the storm.
Feeling the air around him cooling down again, Van shouted in his heart, 'Aiyoo, what are you doing~ I'm your little snake, do you really think I haven't lived long enough? What benefit do you get from my corpse!'
Thinking of this, Van felt that if he didn't ask for outside help now, sooner or later he'd be played to death by the three.
Seeing the situation getting more and more out of control, Van could only choose to place his final hope on Fu Hua sitting in the corner.
As the teammate who had spent the most time with him before, Van believed Fu Hua could surely save him from water and fire.
However, before Van could speak, Fu Hua suddenly stood up from her seat. She pushed the glasses on her face, the lenses under the reflection of the light blocked her eyes.
"Minimum three years, maximum ten years, if the plot is serious enough can be sentenced to death..."
After Fu Hua finished speaking, the entire room instantly fell silent.
Van even directly widened his eyes. 'No! Hua, you're really my comrade in arms? Not saying you'll stab a knife for me, now you're stabbing me with two.'
'Are you seriously explaining criminal law to me with a serious face? Such small verbal injury, yet so big!'
Just when the atmosphere was tense to the extreme, the phone in Van's pocket suddenly rang.
Seeing the [Unknown Number] displayed on the phone screen
Van immediately felt his temples throbbing wildly, and at the same time a strange ominous feeling surged in his heart.
'This... Could it be... No way!'
As if she saw through Van's concerns, Mobius on the side "considerately" reminded, "What's wrong, inconvenient to answer? Do you need us to 'step aside' a bit?"
Feeling Mobius' subtle gaze, Van was convinced, if he really let her step aside, probably the first thing he'd see after waking up would be the shadowless lamp above an operating table.
To this, Van feigned calm and said, "No need, I have a clear conscience."
After speaking, taking a deep breath, Van pressed the button to answer the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hello, I'm Van, I'm now deeply trapped in the Quantum Sea and unable to escape, right now I only need you to transfer 648 yuan to this account, and you can help me get out of trouble. Once I get out of the Quantum Sea, I will definitely take down the entire Destiny organization and give it to you as a gift. Transfer bank, HoYoverse Bank, Card number, 6210XXXXX7845...."
Hearing this, Van's heart that was hanging finally relaxed.
After hanging up the phone and showing the phone screen, Van righteously looked at everyone, "Northern Myanmar scam, I said I had a clear conscience!"
Van's words made the four people half-believe, but the facts were in front of them, and they couldn't continue questioning.
Afterward, the four women exchanged a glance.
Raiden Mei was the first to stand up, tidying her things while saying to everyone, "It's getting late."
"At this time, I should also head to the hotel."
After lazily stretching, Mobius stood up from the sofa, "Right, Teacher Himeko, I remember we seem to be going the same way, how about together?"
Hearing Mobius' words, Himeko smiled and crushed the beer can in her hand, throwing it into the trash can.
"To be able to leave with the famous Doctor Mobius, it really is my honor~"
Although Himeko had a smile on her face, anyone with eyes could hear the anger hidden in her tone.
While the three were confronting each other, Fu Hua had already quietly picked up the schoolbag placed on the table, then quietly stood not far away waiting for the three.
The four of them just tacitly moved from the living room stalemate to the entrance, then from the entrance to the door.
No one was willing to leave first, nor willing to be the last to leave.
Thinking of this, Van subconsciously recalled the famous scene not long ago, where Mobius returned and was caught red-handed by Himeko.
Looking at the crowd once again falling into this state, Van secretly sighed, "To prevent someone from sneaking back in, you all really went to great lengths....."
At this moment, Van suddenly felt the phone in his pocket vibrate again. He pretended to adjust his clothes, turned around and quickly pulled out his phone to look.
"Phew~ still not an unknown number..." Van breathed a sigh of relief, "Looking at the number prefix, it seems to be from Van's (female Van) side...."
'Wait! Van?!'
