Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 686 World 221

When Mr. Shen returned home, he ate the chilled watermelon that his mother and daughter had specially saved for him, and also announced his plan to take annual leave.

“Yinyin couldn’t go on her graduation trip, so I thought we could all go on a trip together as a family for a few days, and make up for it for Yinyin.”

“I think it’s a good idea,” said Mrs. Shen. “Yinyin, where were you originally planning to go?”

“Yan Nan, they said they want to see the sea,” Shen Ruyin said. “But when our family goes out, we don’t need to go to the same places as them. Mom and Dad, do you have any places you’d like to go?”

Mr. and Mrs. Shen didn't really have any particular place they wanted to go, so they simply browsed through online recommendations and travel guides, found some that looked pretty good, and then used the simplest method—drawing lots.

The final choice turned out to be Montenegro, which isn't too far from home. Recently, Montenegro's scenic spots have been getting a lot of advertising and traffic on various websites.

Tourists who have been attracted to the place and returned generally give it high praise, and it has a very good reputation.

It just so happened that the Shen family found six places, and then, as if to make up the numbers, wrote this on a piece of paper and put it in, preparing a total of seven paper balls, jokingly saying that they could summon a dragon. Who knew that Shen's father would draw this one by chance.

“This…” Mr. Shen cleared his throat, “It’s so close, we can go play on the weekend when we have time off, there’s no need to take annual leave to go. Let’s draw the ticket again.”

Shen Ruyin and her daughter agreed and put the group-buying group in again.

After mixing thoroughly, Shen's mother drew the mixture again.

“Why is it still here?” Mother Shen laughed. “Let’s throw it in again and see what happens.”

"Let's take it out," said Mr. Shen. "What if we draw it again later?"

“Then go ahead,” Shen’s mother replied. “They say things don’t happen more than three times. It’s fate to draw the same lot three times in a row.”

After thinking about it, Mr. Shen realized that this made sense, so he threw it back.

This time, they mixed the paper balls for an exceptionally long time, and even took out a small cardboard box so that Shen Ruyin could reach in and grab them from it when she couldn't see them.

Under her parents' expectant gaze, Shen Ruyin stirred the crumpled paper in the box.

Just as she was about to grab one, her finger suddenly touched the one next to her.

Her intuition told her that switching to the one that had just been touched by her fingers would be most advantageous for her.

She lowered her eyelids and reached out to take it.

She unfolded the slip of paper she had drawn, narrowed her eyes to conceal her deep thoughts, and then laid it out in front of her parents.

"Dad, accept your fate. I also drew the route to Montenegro."

"Alright then," the father said, though the three of them had all drawn the same place, but he was still not giving up.

He unfolded the remaining crumpled paper pieces one by one, making sure they were all different, before he resigned himself to his fate.

It can only be said that even God considers them to be family, and they all have the same bad luck.

Because the place was so close, Mr. Shen, who did not ask for leave, picked up his wife and daughter after get off work on Friday and drove them straight to the guesthouse he had booked in Heishan.

This guesthouse is quite spacious, with several small buildings connected by antique-style corridors.

The Shen family arrived a bit late and missed the sunset that many people had praised, but they were lucky enough to see many fireflies outside the guesthouse wall near the mountain.

Now, Mr. and Mrs. Shen felt that the trip was well worth it.

"It must have been many years since I've seen fireflies," Shen's mother recalled. "The last time I saw them was when Yinyin was little. It seems the environment here must be very good."

Mr. Shen nodded: "It's a pity that there's a wall separating us, otherwise we could have taken a closer look."

“It’s good to see from a distance,” Shen Ruyin said. “Once we get to the room, without the walls blocking the view, we might be able to see even more from the window.”

"What was that saying again? Right, it's 'The Milky Way flows across the grass.'"

With anticipation in their hearts, Mr. and Mrs. Shen walked faster than before.

Shen Ruyin lagged behind, slowly dragging her suitcase and looking around, when she unexpectedly spotted a familiar face.

"My friends, to be honest, it's such a shame you couldn't come and experience the air in Montenegro in person."

"I'm not exaggerating, the air here really feels like it did when I was a kid in the mountains."

"Slightly damp, with the fresh scent of grass and trees, take a deep breath..."

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by 'writing a script'? I didn't have a script, I didn't write anything. These are just my thoughts, you know!"

Looking at the exasperated Taoist priest, Shen Ruyin tilted her head. His business was quite extensive.

As Shen Ruyin walked, she opened his live stream on her phone and quickly understood what was going on from the comments.

[Alright, alright, guys, this is ridiculous. It's not easy for him to get an ad, let's give him some face.]

[That makes sense, considering it was a long time ago that this guesthouse became famous, and it's the first place they dared to hire a livestreamer for an outdoor commercial. This guesthouse must have something special about it.][doge.jpg]

[The person upstairs sees things clearly.][Thumbs up.jpg]

[The unscientific screen recording team is ready and has already recorded the entire process. When is the streamer going to make their move?]

"You guys!" The Science Master snorted, then stopped looking at the comments and started reciting his script in a serious manner.

Just then, a firefly flew in from outside the wall and landed not far from the science enthusiast. He immediately took a close-up shot of the firefly.

Viewers who understood the topic commented in the live chat.

[There are fireflies! The environment there must be really nice.]

[These are fireflies! This is the first time I've ever seen one.]

The comments section was filled with discussion about the firefly, and since they were about to enter the elevator, Shen Ruyin didn't continue watching.

Just as she entered the elevator, she heard the "Science Taoist" say, "Wow, handsome guy, why are you wearing so many layers in this heat?"

Shen Ruyin turned around curiously, but the door was already closed, and she couldn't hear anything more, so she had to give up.

As Shen Ruyin got upstairs and stepped out of the elevator, she heard the Science Daoist say downstairs, "I'm not bragging, that handsome guy was really handsome. I consider myself one of the better-looking anchors, but that guy was many times better-looking than me."

"He has a rather cold personality, doesn't like to talk, and doesn't seem to be in good health. He's dressed very thickly, even in this hot weather, he's wearing a cloak."

"Although it's a bit chilly in Montenegro at night, you can just wear a shirt at most. His cloak even has a fluffy trim."

A cloak? Shen Ruyin slowed her movements.

When this was mentioned, a figure immediately came to mind—Number 1.

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

No, that's not right.

Shen Ruyin denied her own guess.

The Scientific Taoist should not be able to see Number 1. Last time, when Zhao Manrou and Qi Chengyun were beaten on the rooftop, the Scientific Taoist couldn't see Number 1 and the others at all, and thought that Zhao Manrou and the Taoist priest later were just acting.

As she swiped her card to open the room door, she overheard the science enthusiast saying, "But maybe she's a cosplayer dressed up like that to portray her favorite character."

"I must say, his conviction is really strong; I couldn't do that."

Shen Ruyin simply put her phone on the table and went to tidy up, without looking at the comments.

If she keeps staring at her phone, she'll definitely see what people are saying in the comments.

[Just walk in this direction, there's only one road. I just saw a family of three walk by. Where did this cosplayer come from?]
