Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!!

Chapter 81

The first contact information Ji Tong saved in his new phone was Pei Qingyuan’s phone number.

Although the two of them can communicate directly through consciousness without using a mobile phone, when Ji Tong uses the human form, except for the content that must be communicated in whispers, other times he will talk in a normal way, otherwise it always feels weird.

Now that he has a legal identity, it’s better to try to get along with ordinary human beings as much as possible, so as not to be accidentally exposed in front of other people after becoming a habit.

Ji Tong saved Pei Qingyuan’s mobile phone number into the address book, and subconsciously typed the word “host” in the remarks column, thinking that if someone saw it, he would not be able to explain it clearly, so he quickly deleted it.

Remarks that Ruanruan damages the tall image of the host, remark that Pei Qingyuan looks too unfamiliar, and his elder brother is just right.

It’s normal for the homeless boy who was picked up to call the person who took him in like this.

Pei Qingyuan quietly watched as his mobile phone number was stored under his brother’s name.

On the way to the museum, Ji Tong enthusiastically registered a social software account commonly used in this world with a new number, and also added a host first.

Pei Qingyuan saw that his head was a white mushroom, the fluffy and white appearance was soft and cute, making people want to poke it.

During this journey full of novel scenery, the AI system addicted to using the new mobile phone chattered and posted a lot of news in the circle of friends with only one friend for the time being.

Most of the feeds are various photos, and the accompanying text is usually very concise, summarizing the content of the photos in only one sentence, because he also secretly hides a diary specially for rambling.

In the photos, there are weird cultural relics seen in the museum, street food with the smell coming straight through the screen, gorgeous dusk floating in the sky, and the silhouettes of companions captured.

When Pei Qingyuan browsed these photos in the special attention, a smile would flash in his eyes, and he would feel a little inexplicable emotion.

He didn’t know how to describe exactly how he felt.

Pei Qingyuan only felt that Ji Tong was really like a homeless boy who was picked up by someone. He lacked the knowledge and experience that ordinary people should have in the world, so he seemed so enthusiastic.

[Ji Tong: Shancheng New Street is the pedestrian street with the most people I have ever seen. ]

[Ji Tong: ⊙o⊙… yesterday’s one doesn’t count, there are more people on this street today. ]

[Ji Tong: This is my first time walking the glass plank road, God! ah! ! ]

[Ji Tong: Tomorrow I’m going to the beach to take a speedboat ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ]

He played this fictional role very well, Pei Qingyuan thought.

This travel plan that Pei Qingyuan spent a lot of time on covers various types of cities, including a mountain city surrounded by green mountains, a sea city famous for its beaches, oceans and sunbathing, and a place of pilgrimage with sparsely populated areas and fresh air. , there is also a fashion capital with rich nightlife, and so on and so on.

From Ji Tong’s amazed reactions all the way, he felt that the plan worked very well.

There was only one thing that exceeded his expectations.

Out of his preference for quietness, Pei Qingyuan arranged some relatively quiet itineraries for specific scenic spots.

But he gradually discovered that Ji Tong especially likes to join the crowd, and also likes all kinds of strenuous exercise that makes the heart beat faster and sweat profusely.

…This probably fits well with the characteristics of lively adolescents.

So Pei Qingyuan silently adjusted the itinerary, such as changing the visit to the hometown of a celebrity to experience the thrill of rafting.

In Haicheng, where the sea and the sky are the same color, on the golden beach, two teenagers got off the speedboat that caused countless waves one after the other.

Although the sleeves and trouser legs were wet to varying degrees, Ji Tong still showed a happy smile in the cool and salty sea breeze.

Today is the day when he and the host look the most similar, both are simple and refreshing beach casual style.

Compared to him, the host doesn’t smile often, and wears elegant glasses. He looks calmer, but it doesn’t make people feel too cold or inaccessible.

In summer, the golden sands are full of tourists, sun umbrellas, and fragrant whole coconuts.

Pei Qingyuan accurately captured the longing in his eyes, and walked straight to the stall selling coconuts. Ji Tong followed behind him expectantly, and looked around at the quite rich entertainment activities of the tourists.

Someone is surfing, someone is lounging under an umbrella with their phone, and someone is playing beach volleyball.

Four young boys who looked about the same age as Ji Tong and Pei Qingyuan were standing at the two ends of the simple net, playing volleyball vigorously, laughing loudly from time to time, very similar to scenes in youth anime.

Ji Tong was so fascinated that he didn’t even notice the opened coconut that Pei Qingyuan handed over.

“Do you want to play?” he asked.

“Think!” Ji Tong came back to his senses, and quickly responded, “Have you ever played beach volleyball?”

“No.” Pei Qingyuan shook his head, “It shouldn’t be difficult, you can rent volleyball here.”

There are volleyballs in the small shop that rents out and sells all kinds of beach equipment, but there are only two of them.

Beach volleyball requires at least four players to be more fun, and it is usually a 2V2 confrontation.

When the two came to the small shop where the volleyball was rented out, Pei Qingyuan tried to judge which single tourists around him also wanted to play volleyball, while Ji Tong held a coconut and watched intently at the group of teenagers playing volleyball.

Maybe it was because his eyes were too hot, or maybe it was because his abnormally fair complexion was dazzling in the sun, the group of teenagers suddenly stopped their movements and noticed this side.

Two boys came towards Ji Tong and the others.

“Want to play volleyball together?” One of the boys with a sunny temperament invited him, “There are two of us here who want to play other sports, and we are short of people.”

Ji Tong’s eyes lit up, and he looked back at the host’s expression, seeing that he had no intention of refusing, he immediately responded: “Okay!”

“But none of us have ever played volleyball, so we don’t know much about it.” He added anxiously, “Especially me, I might be stupid.”

“What’s the matter.” The stranger only thought he was being modest, and waved his hand generously, “Anyway, I’m out to play, the rules don’t matter, just catch the ball and then hit the ball, it’s very simple.”

But after the official start, they realized that what Ji Tong said was completely true.

He really doesn’t have any foundation in volleyball, or in other words, he doesn’t have any foundation in ball games, and he doesn’t know where the ball from the opposite side will land. On the white fingers, it always makes people feel frightened.

On the contrary, his partner has a fairly good basketball foundation at first glance, and he is quick to pick up. His powerful smashes often make the opponent defenseless, and he still has the energy to protect the teenagers around him.

This combination of strong and weak can still fight, but they have to pay attention to try not to hit the thin boy who is very clumsy.

But once the game becomes fierce, it is difficult to precisely control the direction of the ball.

The sunny boy who had invited Ji Tong accidentally dropped his hand, and the ball flew straight to Ji Tong on the opposite side.

He was startled, before he shouted “Caution”, he saw another boy wearing glasses on the opposite side nimbly moving over to try to block the ball.

But it was too late, the volleyball hit the opposite person’s shoulder heavily, knocking him to the ground.

The boy who accidentally missed his hand showed panic, and immediately ran over to see if the other party was okay.

But to his surprise, the young man who looked so weak didn’t even rely on his companion’s hand, but quickly got up by himself, casually brushed off the sand stained on his shoulders, his eyes were full of excitement .

“Are you okay…?” He recalled the force of the volleyball falling, uncertain, “Did you get hurt?”

“No, it’s just a light touch.” Ji Tong picked up the bounced volleyball, as if he didn’t feel any pain, and said solemnly, “I have experience, and I can definitely avoid it later, even if it hits it. It’s okay, I’m in good health, don’t make me special, we’ll play fairly.”

Hearing this, Pei Qingyuan who was beside him slowly withdrew his hands that were soaked in cold sweat.

The human body transformed by the system does not need to worry about being injured, he almost forgot this.

But Ji Tong, who was hit by the ball, smiled brighter than before.

Just like that time when he and Fang Hao had a snowball fight, he fell down again and again, and got up from the snow more happily.

Pei Qingyuan suddenly remembered that in that vague dream, the boy who had the same face as Ji Tong was gazing longingly at the flowers.

Before he had time to think deeply, he heard the stranger continue: “That’s good, I’m scared to death, how about this, I will join your side before our strength is evened out.”

The scene instantly became 3v1.

“Song Shixing, you are too much!” The abandoned friend complained, “No, unless you help me invite a young lady, otherwise I won’t play.”

Song Shixing immediately said with disgust: “What’s wrong with one-on-three? You just said that you can hit one-on-ten, and you’re about to go to college and you want me to help you strike up a conversation, don’t be ashamed!”

Hearing what he said, Ji Tong next to him asked curiously, “Did you just finish the college entrance examination?”

“That’s right, neither my hometown nor the city where I’m going to study in the future has any sea, so I’ll take the summer vacation to visit the beach for a graduation trip.” Song Shixing said casually, “Have you just finished the college entrance examination?”

It was difficult for Ji Tong, an audit student who did not take the college entrance examination, to answer this question. He just said, “We don’t have a sea there either.”

“Hey, it’s great to have the sea. I want to live by the sea every day.” Song Shixing sighed, pretending that he had agreed, and said familiarly, “Which city do you go to university? Maybe we are in the same city.”

Ji Tong answered him honestly, Song Shixing widened his eyes and said, “I really want to go to school there! I won’t lie to you, I was admitted to Jiangyuan University!”

Ji Tong was also surprised.

Not only in the same city, but also in the same school.

“Your grades are really good.” He added enviously, “But I didn’t take the college entrance examination, and I plan to enter Jiangyuan University as an auditor. I still have to take the exam, and I may not pass it.”

Now, no matter how his friend howled on the other side, Song Shixing was determined to 3V1.

“My name is Song Shixing, we will definitely be classmates in the future!”

He has a good impression of Ji Tong, who is very competitive and has a good relationship.

The seaside in summer is indeed a place full of adventures.

It’s just like Ji Tong’s companion doesn’t like talking very much.

Song Shixing enthusiastically taught Ji Tong how to play the ball, and also took the initiative to greet Pei Qingyuan who was on the side: “Handsome guy, you are really talented in volleyball, can you teach me how to hit that kind of handsome smash? I will teach you the basic posture.” .”

Pei Qingyuan: …

After being ignored for a long time, he suddenly missed the cold suit that he wore in the mountain city that made people automatically shy away.

Because of the role of props and glasses, in the eyes of others, he is now completely different from “Pei Qingyuan, the provincial number one student admitted to Jiangyuan University”.

As a result, he can’t say that he has also been admitted to Jiangyuan University now, so as not to cause problems in the future.

Therefore, Pei Qingyuan, unable to change the subject in any way, could only watch helplessly as Ji Tong exchanged contact information with Song Shixing, who was about to be at the same school, and Song Shixing became the second name in his address book.

And watched Song Shixing pat Ji Tong on the shoulder to help him correct the wrong posture of catching the ball.

…is an eyesore.

Pei Qingyuan wanted to stop Song Shixing’s actions, but couldn’t find any proper reason.

With a new identity and a new mobile phone, Ji Tong will start to have his own independent interpersonal relationship. This is how friends should get along with each other.

His intellect understood this.

But emotion drove him to hit more and more fierce smashes one after another.

When Ji Tong’s two system friends came to celebrate the Spring Festival, he didn’t feel such anxiety, but calmly accepted their relationship.

Fang Hao and Fu Yinyin are obviously Ji Tong’s closer friends.

Ji Tong often stayed with Fang Hao to play, so he didn’t go to the gym to watch him train for a while. Fu Yinyin even gave Ji Tong a gift that he regarded as a treasure. At that time, Pei Qingyuan not only didn’t mind, but for his The system is happy.

But in Shancheng, he hoped that the shy girl who approached him would leave immediately. Here, he didn’t want to see Song Shixing, who seemed to be a good friend, so close to Ji Tong.

Why does he feel so differently?

The restless emotions smashed heavily into the sand with the high-speed spinning volleyball.

The lonely boy on the opposite side of the net was completely powerless and could only cry silently in his heart.

Ji Tong beside him skillfully cheered for him: “Brother is amazing!”

elder brother.

Under the intense sunlight burning his nerves, Pei Qingyuan, who had long been used to hearing Ji Tong call his brother, felt that this title was harsh for the first time.

Ji Tong found that the host didn’t seem very interested in Haicheng, which is full of handsome men and beautiful women on sunny beaches.

After saying goodbye to the golden beach and returning to the hotel room at night, the host silently looked at the upcoming travel plan, occasionally looking at the suitcase full of clothes.

Ji Tong felt that the host must have fallen in love with the feeling of changing clothes, and wanted to hurry to the next city to change his look.

Fortunately, he has already recorded enough seaside material, and even made a VR version, which he sent to Fang Hao, who had never seen a modern sea, so that the elementary school students could make up for their regrets and come to play together next time.

Fang Hao must have never played beach volleyball before, he was finally able to compete with evenly matched elementary school students.

After playing around in Haicheng, Ji Tong bid farewell to Song Shixing, who was very reluctant, and made an appointment to contact him again when he was free, and meet him at Jiangyuan University, then set off with his host for the next destination.

The host, who had changed out of his casual beach attire, turned cold again.

Ji Tong sneezed, planning to secretly put a popsicle in the host’s pocket one day to see how the cooling effect would be.

He stood in front of the gorgeous night scene that covered the entire window in the corridor, and after sending a message about his arrival in the new city, he put away his phone and waited for the host to come out after changing clothes.

At this stop, they came to a bustling city that never sleeps, famous for its gourmet food and romantic encounters.

Today he matched the look of the host with a floral shirt and trousers. Ji Tong felt that this unrestrained temperament was very suitable for this city where the night is particularly colorful.

He had already prepared his camera to record this set of prodigal son looks that was unprecedented for the host.

In order to maintain the host’s image, he vowed not to show it to others.

Except for other rules.

Ji Tong recalled for a while the host in the floral shirt holding Coke and skewers, and hummed a cheerful tune in a low voice.

The door of the room opened, he quickly put away the bgm, followed the prestige, switched to a serious and calm expression, ready to hold back the laughter.

But the next second, he was stunned.

The host did not wear a brand new floral shirt suit, but wore a suit that had appeared before.

The same silver-rimmed glasses outlined a tall and straight black suit, and a cold and cold expression.

The appearance is the same, but Pei Qingyuan at this moment gives people a completely different feeling from the youthfulness and hesitation on the light rail train that day.

As if he should.

In the dim light of the hotel corridor, he looked over quietly, his eyes dim.
