Mission in another world with my transformed best friend
Chapter 7 The Destroyed Village (2)
After finally finishing vomiting, Wang Kai dared not look at the victim's body again. His heart was pounding wildly, and he couldn't calm it down. After a while, he heard soft footsteps approaching. He looked closely and saw Zhang Lan...
Zhang Lan seemed to have anticipated Wang Kai's reaction. She looked at his face, handed him another strip of cloth, and although her tone was relatively calm, she was only forcibly suppressing her excitement.
“Even firefighters have to be fully equipped before they dare to enter a fire, and you… I understand your eagerness to save people, but don’t be so reckless in your rescue efforts. What if you get caught? Sigh… I regret to inform you of a harsh truth: based on the horrific scene I just witnessed, I know the fire has been burning for at least several hours. If there were any survivors, we should have seen them before we even reached the village…”
Wang Kai took the strip of cloth with some disbelief, but his hand remained frozen in mid-air. He lowered his head for a while, gritted his teeth, and slowly said.
"Zhang Lan...good buddy."
"Hmm, you said..."
"Tell me...tell me that all of this is just...just a 'special plot' in the game, right? Even though it looks so tragic, there shouldn't be any real human casualties, right?"
"Well, if this makes you feel any better, I can tell you definitively that this is a game, only it's designed to be too realistic, almost indistinguishable from reality. And the people in this village... those NPCs are just game data, nothing more..."
"Bullshit..."
Wang Kai's eyes widened, intending to lash out, but when he looked up and saw Zhang Lan's forced composure, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.
"Yes, I'm sorry. I always had an optimistic attitude that treated everything as a game. It must have seemed very naive to you."
"Since you've used the word 'optimistic,' it means you're starting to accept the 'facts' before you. Indeed, suddenly arriving in a strange world, facing a dangerous future, choosing to deal with everything as if it were a game is certainly the best coping strategy for an optimist... Okay, as I said before, no matter how you interpret it, it's good that you can cheer up..."
As she spoke, Zhang Lan stepped closer and whispered a word of addition.
"However, at least I can be sure of one thing: you may be simple-minded, but you are kind-hearted and have sound values. You are a trustworthy and best partner."
"Ugh... why are you talking like that, so distant, even a bit effeminate? We're brothers, aren't we?"
"Yeah, who's to blame..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhang Lan's almond-shaped eyes widened, and she turned her head to prick up her ears.
"Shh, did you hear that?"
Wang Kai was stunned for a moment. He hadn't heard anything, and his heart, which had just calmed down a little, was jolted up again...
"Over there, I hear some noises..."
Zhang Lan uttered a sentence and immediately turned and ran in a certain direction. Soon, on the far side of the village, there was a charred corpse that seemed to be lying on a stone pillar.
Zhang Lan was stunned for a moment, then clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect and gently moved the body aside. Below was a well; looking into it, it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly...
"Hey, who's down there?"
After a shout, a sound of water came from down the well, but there was no response. Then, a sound that seemed to be tapping on the well wall with fingers came from down the well.
Wang Kai, who arrived at the same time, also heard it clearly and shouted.
"There are survivors!?"
Zhang Lan picked up a small pebble and gently tossed it into the water. Based on the reflected sound of the pebble hitting the water, she whispered something.
"The well opening is about two meters above the water surface. Do you see any ropes nearby?"
There was a well rope right next to Wang Kai's feet, but when he picked it up, the charred rope instantly turned to ash, leaving only a small section...
Perhaps hearing that there were people above, the people in the well began to struggle, followed by the sound of choking on water.
Seeing this, Zhang Lan could not hesitate any longer. Just like when he climbed the tree before, he took off his long robe and boots, bent over with his hands on the well opening, took a deep breath and said.
"Hey, grab my foot, pull hard..."
Seeing Zhang Lan strike such a pose at this crucial moment, Wang Kai, completely bewildered, replied blankly, "What kind of play is this!?"
"Play my foot! Hold on tight to my feet, then slowly lower me into the well to retrieve the person. They seem exhausted; in this emergency, I have no choice but to take the risk..."
"Huh? What if, what if I can't catch you?"
"There's nothing you can't catch. Where did that desperate attitude you had just shown towards saving people go? Trust me, you can do it..."
As she spoke, Zhang Lan turned to Wang Kai and smiled slightly. Although it didn't have much effect, it still gave the other party a little motivation.
"Okay, I've got it, lift! Slow down..."
As Zhang Lan slowly lowered herself into the hole, Wang Kai grabbed her ankles and moved closer to the well opening step by step. When Zhang Lan's entire upper body was inside, with only her legs and half of her buttocks sticking out of the well opening, Wang Kai felt he was losing his grip and asked through gritted teeth.
"Hey, did you touch the other person?"
"Just over a meter left, and my hands won't be able to hold onto the well wall any longer, so I won't be able to share any more of your weight... Hold on tight... Whoa!"
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Kai was violently pulled away from his hands. Without hesitation, he lunged forward and grabbed one of his thighs under each armpit, barely managing to slow his fall...
"Hey, Wang Kai, don't let go! You can't even hold onto a skinny girl like me..."
"Although it's fine, I'm worried that if I use too much force, I might hurt you."
"You still have a soft spot for men, don't worry. Just hold on tight, and then slowly loosen your grip. I'm almost there..."
She just said she was a skinny girl, but now she's changed her tune and calls herself a man...
Wang Kai sighed and slowly loosened his grip as instructed. But just as he began to loosen his grip, Zhang Lan's capri pants seemed to get stuck at the edge of the well. As her body fell into the well, they slowly slipped down to her calves. He didn't know if it was because the waistband was too loose or because her skin was too slippery, but when the slightly pink leggings underneath were revealed, Wang Kai realized something was wrong...
"Wait... could you slow down a little? Your... it's about to fall off."
"No need to slow down, this speed is just right, I'm almost able to grab the other person's hand... just twenty centimeters away..."
Twenty centimeters? If it really slides down like that, forget about the capri pants, even the leggings might...
And reality confirmed Wang Kai's guess. With such posture and force, plus the soft and smooth skin of his thighs, there was absolutely no chance of the friction between the fabric and the skin winning...
Forget it, since she started talking about "men," now is not the time to let my imagination run wild.
All Wang Kai could do was close his eyes slightly, and finally Zhang Lan's shouts came from down the well.
"Okay, I've got it. You can pull me back now..."
"Okay, you said it yourself, don't blame me if anything happens afterward."
Wang Kai took a deep breath, gripped Zhang Lan's legs tightly with both hands, and backed away step by step. Although pulling her up was more strenuous than releasing her, his current body was that of a teenage boy, a swordsman, and a tank. Desperate to save her, he yelled a few times and pulled back a few times, pulling Zhang Lan's upper body back from the well. Her hands were tightly gripping two other small hands. Before Wang Kai could even see, his foot slipped, and he fell to the ground with a thud…
"Alright, alright, you're alright now... Are you hurt, little sister?"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Almost eight chapters have passed since I arrived in this world… no, almost four or five hours, and I finally heard someone else's voice besides Zhang Lan's. A cough followed, and a large amount of vomit spilled onto the ground.
Zhang Lan straightened up, patted the girl on the back, and said, "She drank a lot of water, but she'll be fine after she threw up! Oh my god!"
Just as she was about to take a step, she tripped. Looking down, Zhang Lan saw that her capri pants had been completely pulled down to her calves. That wasn't the worst part; the most crucial thing was that her leggings had also slipped down quite a bit along with the capri pants.
If it slips down another centimeter or two, the leggings will become practically invisible...
Although she immediately guessed why there was such a "perk" scene, Zhang Lan originally intended to downplay it and ignore it, but her eyes caught sight of Wang Kai, who had secretly turned his head to the side but was still secretly glancing in this direction.
His glances, seemingly half-closed, were becoming increasingly frequent, even when their eyes met. At this rate, it would soon become direct eye contact…
