Chapter 357: Chapter 358: Murder Weapon from a Previous Life

"What do you mean by ’right’?" Zhou Zhijun leaned forward with her rice bowl in hand, her curvaceous figure even more prominent, looking at Lin Luor with a curious expression.

Lin Luor shot Zhou Zhijun a glance, then quickly looked back at herself, her expression seemingly saying ’you know what I mean.’ However, Chu You was not able to decode the implication behind Lin Luor’s gaze, his eyes remaining confused.

"I get it now, your real skin looks very similar to your character’s skin in the game," Lin Luor finally voiced her realization, her eyes still filled with amazement.

No way?! Chu You blinked twice, making sure that Lin Luor was not joking, then he rubbed his own skin. It did indeed feel different, softer and smoother, with an indescribable texture.

His brows furrowed slightly, taking note of certain peculiar occurrences like the unshakeable sense of being watched when he was out, the strange incident with the glass of water, and how the sunlight looked...

After taking a bite of his food and regaining his composure, he joked, "I am getting younger day by day!"

Zhou Zhijun could not make heads or tails out of it, her eyes filled with confusion, but she did not continue the conversation. The atmosphere took on a strange, inexplicable tension.

"Perhaps you should go to a hospital for a check-up?" suggested Lin Luor in a soft voice after finishing her succulent piece of shrimp.

"What for? There’s nothing wrong, is there... Maybe some other time." Chu You replied noncommittally, also uncertain about his state. There was an uncanny feeling gnawing at his heart.

His mind preoccupied with his concerns, he unknowingly hastened his eating pace and put down his chopsticks, "Enjoy your meal, I’m going to play the game first." With that, he left the table.

Watching Chu You retreat into the bedroom, Zhou Zhijun asked Lin Luor, "Homer, what exactly happened to Young Master Chu?" There was a cautious tone in her voice.

"Oh, he used a skin-care product related to the game Celestial World," Lin Luor provided a plausible reason.

Once inside his room, Chu You’s face turned serious, his brows furrowed in deep thought. He then decided to step into the bathroom and picked up a glass-colored skin care product that he hadn’t used for a long time.

He toyed with the item for a bit, remembering the unusual happenings that night. The events initially on the brink of being forgotten suddenly rushed back to his memory because of the anomalies today.

Chu You carefully recalled the scenes from that night, the memories appearing vividly in his mind as he grasped the skincare product tightly, took a deep breath, and stared at the item intently. The room was shrouded in silence.

One second passed, then thirty, then a minute, but nothing happened.

Why such a weird phenomenon? Chu You gave a self-deprecating laugh and put the item back to its place. But what was happening to his skin indeed? Chu You rolled up his sleeves, knowing there was a scar from a past injury there.

As he rolled up his sleeves, to his astonishment, he discovered that the scar had completely disappeared.

He couldn’t make sense of it! He left the bathroom and sat down in front of his computer, searching for answers to his peculiar situation on the internet. Yet, he found no results that matched his condition; the information given online did not match his situation.

Changing his keywords, Chu You input the connection between the Game Pod and his physical changes. Finally, he found a kind of an answer: his body’s abnormal changes had something to do with the Game Pod, which could boost the human body’s functions, especially those of the brain.

Chu You knew that the Game Pod might as well be considered a version of a Biological Cabin, as many of its applications are already used in the medical field.

However, he was not satisfied with this answer, as he never experienced anything like this before. Could it be due to experiencing some unique content in the game? Thinking of the new sensory experiences he had in the game, Chu You’s confusion deepened and his thoughts muddled. Nonetheless, at least he seemed to have found an answer: his abnormal changes had a definite connection to the Game Pod.

At this point, a piece of remembered information struck him: the Game Pod’s Sleep Mode had some unknown effects!

At present, my physical condition seems good, and my memory is becoming clearer. Could these be the benefits of some unknown taboo? So, what are the drawbacks? After thinking about it, I eventually shook my head and dismissed the tangled thoughts. It seems necessary to consult and get some information on this.

Once I made up my mind, it was kind of comforting. Chu You stopped dwelling on the incomprehensible matters and closed the current webpage, entering the gaming forum instead.

The hot topic on the Huaxia forum was NAG48 joining the Super God Guild. It was extremely sensational; countless players expressed their shock and puzzlement. At the same time, they’ve developed more awe for the ruling alliance of Yan Kingdom.

This power was just too overwhelming, to the point that even NAG48 was willing to join. There will likely be more celebrities joining in the future. The Super God Guild sure is fortunate!

As he read through more posts, all of them were related to this news, some expressing envy, some expressing anger.

After closing the forum, just as he was preparing to stand up and head towards the game pod, he suddenly remembered something. He sat down again, and opened the bottom drawer where a high-end real handgun was quietly placed.

He picked it up, studied it for a moment, and then his eyes turned obscure.

This gun was what he found in his parent’s secret room after they died. Back then, for reasons unknown, he decided to keep this gun with him. It became an essential tool for eliminating his enemies in his past life.

In this life, it has not taken any lives yet. But Chu You knew it remained a deadly weapon and could potentially take a life again! This chilling thought caused a flash in his eyes.

Just as he was about to put the gun back into the drawer, a smile flashed across his face. He decided against it, fearing Lin Luor would find it there. That would be a headache! It’d be better to return it to its original place.

Chu You’s hand reached for another part of the computer desk that had a lock device on it. Not only could it automatically open the mansion’s gate and control it, but also had other functions...

After he entered a string of numbers on this lock device, a light sound suddenly emitted from his bedroom, and a hidden drawer on the seamless white wall automatically opened. Chu You then walked over with the gun.

He crouched down and took out a black metal box from inside. Clearly, this metal box was weighty. After he successfully activated it by entering the password again, it automatically opened, and a faint light shone from inside.

He put the energy handgun into the energy slot inside the metal box, immediately closed the box and finally put it back into the hidden drawer. With a light push, the drawer silently retracted and perfectly fitted into the wall.

This metal box not only charged the energy gun with special energy but also had the function of anti-detection. It was immune to infrared and equipment scanning, instead, it would offer false information.

...

Zhao Feiyan was eating her meal in small bites. The dishes on the table were not as extravagant as Chu You’s, only three dishes she made herself. As she was contemplating, her phone on the table rang.

Seeing the incoming call, Zhao Feiyan smiled coquettishly.

"Hello, dad!"

"Feifei, I’ve sent the information to your mailbox, you can check it now." Father Zhao’s voice came through the phone.

"Okay, thank you, dad."

"Hehe, thanking me? It’s been a long time since I heard that. Seems like you really like this guy, your old man’s getting jealous!"

"Dad! What are you talking about..." Zhao Feiyan exhibited a girlish demeanor, her coyness would definitely surprise anyone.

"Haha, just joking. Go check it now and remember to tell your old man!"
