Traveling through Tomorrow's Ark: Starting with a Yama Sword

The next morning, the system did not wake up Shen Qi at seven o'clock - perhaps because of his status as a wounded soldier, the system gave him more time to rest.

When he woke up after eight o'clock, he turned on his mobile phone in bed and found that two people had sent him messages.

Texas asked herself whether she had eaten at 7:30, but when Shen Qi didn't reply, she didn't ask any more questions. Perhaps she knew that Shen Qi was still sleeping soundly.

At eight o'clock, Ines quietly came to the training ground and met Texas. After learning some news, Ines sent a message to Shen Qi:

"Get up, stop living your life as a young master!"

But this sentence failed to wake him up, he woke up naturally. He quickly finished washing up, dragged his injured leg downstairs, came to the cafeteria, and ate a little bit as breakfast.

Texas didn't have any shifts at the trade station today, so it was indeed quite free. After training in the morning, she went back to the dormitory to take a shower, then found a Rhode Island car outside, drove to Longmen at noon, and returned to Penguin Logistics.

She came in a hurry, planning to rush back to Rhodes Island in the evening - it seemed that Rhodes Island was now her base camp, and Penguin Logistics had become a place she visited occasionally.

After she got in the car, she first told Angel that she was back for a short while, and also said to Shen Qi:

"I'm going to Penguin Logistics. See you in the evening."

"At night? Are we going there and coming back the same day?"

"Yeah, don't worry about my driving ability."

"Okay, I'll wait."

Texas smiled slightly and turned off his phone contentedly.

Shen Qi chose to stroll around Rhode Island. Relying on his status as an injured soldier, Ines took over his job in the HR office for two days, which was unprecedented. Ines said there would definitely not be a next time, as covering for others would make W laugh at her for the rest of her life.

"It just so happens that Texas isn't busy lately."

[You said that as if I were helping you.]

"Isn't it?"

【you win. 】

Shen Qi did not continue the conversation, but chose to go to the Guards training ground - wondering who would train Twelve today.

He pushed open the door of the training ground and saw Twelve watching the operator next to him demonstrating something.

"Fuck, is this Skadi?"

The operator with white hair and red eyes that the Twelve Institute was looking at was none other than the happy little killer whale, Xanti - Skadi!

【This is Skadi, she is very cute. 】

"No, I didn't notice."

In order to avoid exposing Twelve's identity, and since he had already taken the Blood of Agor, Shen Qi said to Twelve:

"You and she are of the same race, why is there such a big difference?"

[There is a big gap between the Deep Sea Hunters and the ordinary Agor tribe. Moreover, Twelve was pulled up by you after you injected him with Agor's blood. Now his strength is not as good as yours.]

"Me? Don't ask me."

Seeing the two chatting, Skadi stopped swinging her sword and walked towards them:

"Twelve, who is this?"

"This is Qiannian, my senior."

Skadi looked at Shen Qi - according to Shen Qi's current strength, he was close to the deep-sea hunter, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.

"I'm Skadi."

Skadi just said these five words in the end - Shen Qi had already gotten used to this attitude when he was a doctor in the real world.

How did the previous host mentioned by the system kiss her with tongue to apologize?

[Don't ask me. Ask Skadi.]

"..."

After explaining a few things, Shen Qi left - after all, he was just a "senior" in name only, and a pioneer at that.

------------

Texas drove Rhode Island's car back to the parking area, then immediately got out and walked back to Rhode Island's deck.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening, but when Texas walked into the cafeteria, she saw Shen Qi sitting at a table - waiting for her.

"Have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten. I'm just waiting for you here."

"Let's go then."

Texas bought some food casually, then took Shen Qi's hand and helped him up.

"pain."

The moment Shen Qi stood up, he still felt a sharp pain in his knee - although the healing speed was faster than that of ordinary people, the pain was still unavoidable.

Texas had no intention of helping him, so Shen Qi walked very slowly. Texas bought things on the way. After a while, the two arrived at the door of Rhode Island's bar - a bar built on the first floor of Rhode Island, which was actually a larger room converted. The lights inside were all dark, similar to the bars Shen Qi had seen in the real world. Shen Qi saw a bartender busy inside.

"Texas, long time no see."

The bartender greeted Texas, "You brought friends here?"

"Ah."

When Shen Qi saw the blond operator, he knew who it was—Ernesto from Dos Solès—Tequila!

"What would you two like to drink?"

Texas handed the drink list to Shen Qi first and asked him to make a choice. Shen Qi asked which tequila had the lowest alcohol content, and after getting the answer, he chose that one. Texas also chose a glass with a lower alcohol content, and the two found a place to sit - on a sofa away from the bar.

"I don't want you to pay for it this time."

Texas said that she would definitely pay this time, and Shen Qi didn't say a word - the clothes did cost him a lot of merit.

[I saw that you were quite decisive when you deducted the merits. Now I feel heartbroken.]

When Shen Qi lowered his head, Texas secretly glanced at the young man - in fact, if you look closely, he is actually very handsome, with groomed gray hair, and it seems that he has dressed up carefully to meet her.

However, just as she was staring at Shen Qi's profile, Shen Qi turned his head silently and met her eyes:

"Ok?"

This time it's Texas' turn to feel embarrassed.

"I just saw that you looked a little tired."

Shen Qi pointed this out - he saw that Texas' eyelids were drooping, obviously due to fatigue.

"Because I just came back from driving at Penguin Logistics, and there was no one to take turns driving with me. I was really tired, and I felt like my eyelids were fighting."

Soon, Tequila brought the prepared drinks to the two of them:

"If it's not enough, you can have a refill."

The two nodded in thanks, then raised their glasses and clinked them gently.

"To be honest, there's not much smell of alcohol."

Shen Qi took a small sip and felt that the taste of the wine was mainly the sweetness of the fruit juice - the punch of the alcohol had been covered up, leaving only a slightly stimulating feeling.

"You can drink more, as long as you don't need me to carry you back."

Texas winked at him and drank the cup in his hand. "This cup was ordered by the doctor when I came here. He told me to pursue my true love, just like this cup. Although the alcohol content is not high, it is very memorable."

"The doctor is right."

"It's a pity that I haven't found true love yet, but maybe...soon."

"Soon?"

"I don't know whether it is in the horizon or in front of me."

"Really? Then..."

Shen Qi wanted to say something, but he felt something fall on his shoulder - Texas closed her eyes and leaned on his shoulder. At this moment, her wolf ears touched Shen Qi's face, making Shen Qi feel a wonderful feeling.

Perhaps because of the influence of alcohol and physical fatigue, Texas fell asleep next to Shen Qi.

Shen Qi was stunned for a moment, but finally smiled - was she tired, so she chose to lean on him?

They were not a couple, so this was indeed awkward, but Shen Qi just took a deep breath. After all, it was nothing to him.

He seemed to have thought of something, took out his phone, turned it to silent mode, heard Texas's faint breathing, and felt her body temperature. He turned on the camera, adjusted the direction of the lens, pressed the shutter lightly, then turned it off and put it back in his pocket, all in one go.

He raised his glass and took another sip, but this action made his shoulders move. Then he saw. Texas slowly opened his eyes and looked at the man in front of him:

"I, fell asleep?"

"Yeah, just a few minutes. He even slept on my shoulder."

When she heard that she slept on Shen Qi's shoulder, she was a little bit unconvinced:

"I do not believe."

"You don't believe it? I have photos. I have evidence!"

Shen Qi took out his cell phone again, opened the album, and showed her the photo he had just taken.

When Texas saw the photo of herself sleeping, her face turned red - it seemed that she really fell asleep leaning on someone's shoulder, and she looked very peaceful.

"Thousand years, you..."

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that..."

"Send me the photo."

"what?"

Texas blushed but finally smiled.

"No? Then I'll wait a little longer."
