Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 258 Freeze

"Hahaha, okay."

A nautical chart was also attached to the back of the parchment.

This one is much more exquisite than that treasure map.

The two searched the area again and made sure that nothing else was left behind before returning to the beach along the same route.

"The great voyage has begun!"

start sailing!

Hongshu, who was helping to pack the supplies onto the boat, looked at their small, broken boat, then glanced at Yun Xianhe, who was full of confidence, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

Maybe this is what is called the spirit of bravery.

On the boat swaying with the waves, Hiroki looked at the parchment in his hand and muttered to himself:

"Guided by the North Star... we can only determine the course at night. Will we encounter pirates?"

Yun Xianhe, who was asked, thought for a moment and spread his hands:

"I do not know."

"? Aren't you in control of this place?"

"No, except for the island just now, I just gave a rough direction for the rest. As for the NPC's reaction, of course it's more interesting to let them figure it out by themselves."

Hiroki was stunned when he heard this.

He briefly checked the operation of Noah's Ark and found that their current existence had been integrated with the original game world.

"Amazing."

"Want to learn?"

Yun Xianhe, who was sitting at the stern, neatly tied the rope that secured the sail, then propped up his chin with one hand and looked at Hongshu:

"Don't worry, the outside world can't hear our conversation. Just think of it as me turning on a special shield."

"When did you achieve this?"

"I forgot. I tinkered with it a long time ago when I had nothing to do. However, to avoid trouble, I have never shown it to others."

Hiroki stiffened a little when he heard this.

Yun Xianhe supported his chin with one hand and looked at the sun gradually setting into the sea in the distance:

"I have a friend who looks a lot like you."

"Ok?"

"If a genius known to the world wasn't a loner, he would probably be like you."

Entangled and carried away by the secular world, he finally fell like a meteor.

Hiroki recalled the information he had found, feeling somewhat uncertain:

"Your friends are not... Sorry."

Yun Xianhe shrugged casually:

"What did he say then?"

The hero cleared his throat, imitated the words of the ghost in his memory, and raised an eyebrow at Hiroki:

"I can tell at a glance that you're different from those idiots."

"Pfft,"

"Follow me! I promise you'll have delicious food and drinks later!"

He has a decent face, but the words he speaks sound like those of some underground gang.

Hiroki was overjoyed after thinking of many things but not guessing this answer:

"Hahaha, is this a new way of making friends?"

"Super stupid, right? As a result, the kids next to me saw it and ran to tell the teacher that 'someone is gathering the new students and they want to form an evil force.' Wow, really, this is my first self-review in my life."

Yun Xianhe's face was full of pain when he said this.

Hongshu on the opposite side smiled with his eyes curved, listening quietly to Yun Xianhe's story, his eyes full of envy.

"That's great...you and your friends."

"Do you know about friendships that are different in age?"

The sudden change of topic made Hiroki stunned for a moment, then he nodded slightly:

“Of course, even if there is a big age gap between people, it is possible for them to get to know each other because of the same dreams or ideas and eventually become friends.”

"My first friend is a close friend of mine, who is much older than me."

"Hey--"

“He is still my guide.”

"real or fake?"

The boat swayed towards the junction of the sea and the sky.

Listening to Yun Xianhe telling about those experiences that could be called wonderful, Hongshu, who was mimicked by Noah's Ark, exclaimed from time to time.

If his creator, Hiroki, were still alive, and if the person in front of him had met his creator a long time ago, they would have become good friends.

Then can the creator survive?

Noah's Ark thought about this and felt a little sad.

This is the effect of the emotional programming set by Hiroki and the same consciousness given to him.

The character constructed by wishes eventually becomes so similar to the other person that there is almost no difference.

Therefore, the Noah's Ark that accomplished all this was Hiroki - Hiroki who was forever frozen in the moment when the Ark set sail.

"What are you thinking about?"

The dull eyes blinked, and the pair of brilliant heterochromatic eyes came into view.

Hiroki looked at the person in front of him, and the data in his body became garbled for a moment, then quickly returned to normal.

The hands on his knees tightened slightly, Hiroki avoided the eyes that seemed to see through everything, and said self-deprecatingly:

"I wonder if my fate would be different if I met you."

"Um--"

Yun Xianhe did not answer immediately.

Noah's Ark is calculating the possibility of Hiroki meeting the other party.

On that day two years ago, the 'Yun Xianhe' of this world was in the emergency room of the hospital.

Noah's Ark paused after finding this result, and raised the corners of his lips sarcastically:

"I suddenly feel that your saying 'God is jealous of talented people' is very apt."

"Ha, even if He is jealous of me, I am still alive."

[Mr. Yun, I am not jealous of you.]

'Be good, shut up and watch the show without making any noise.'

Xiao Tiandao, who was thinking about explaining, silently covered his mouth and tried to be obedient.

On the other side, Hongshu chuckled when he heard Yun Xianhe's words.

He looked at the brave man sitting under the starry sky, and hesitated:

"Are we friends now?"

"Well, what do you think?"

Hiroki didn't answer.

Yun Xianhe did not urge him. He glanced at the gradually approaching black shadow on the sea and said lightly:

"Oh, it looks like we're in trouble."

Although he said it was troublesome, Hiroki saw a hint of excitement in the other person's eyes?

With only two oars, this tattered little boat would definitely not be able to row past the big ship.

So the brave man decisively dragged Hiroki onto the boat and waited for "rescue".

"Hey! Guys on the sea! Don't you know that this sea area is our territory?"

Cursing and scolding came from above.

Yun Xianhe stared at the group of pirates gathered by the ship, his cheeks pale from the sea breeze full of timidity:

"We, we don't know...please don't hurt us."

Hongshu on the side was passively held in Yun Xianhe's arms, with his cheek buried in him, looking very scared (?).

"What are you doing?"

"Wait till they invite us on board."

Yun Xianhe lowered his head and whispered to Hongshu.

The pirates on the deck looked at the two frail boys on the boat and glanced at each other.

"Another child who ran away?"

"runaway?"

"Maybe I was forced to do it."

"Tsk, old Tom, you're thinking about your brother again, aren't you?"

The pirate called Old Tom grabbed two handfuls of dry and frizzy hair, glanced at the two frail boys on the boat, and pointed with his big hand:

"Just catch him and take a look and you'll know!"

“And keep it?”

"It's not the first time."

A group of pirates chattered and threw a rope ladder down.

Old Tom leaned over and shouted to Yun Xianhe and the others:

"Hey! Those two little guys, come up!"

Yun Xianhe, who was called a little guy, shrank his neck, as if he was frightened by the other party's sudden loud voice.

The pirates on the ship who witnessed this burst into laughter.

Yun Xianhe raised his head and looked towards the group of pirates. His expression was still fragile, and his eyes seemed to be evasive and hesitant.

“We don’t have any money…”

"Nonsense, I can see it at a glance, your clothes are worth nothing."

"You want my clothes?! No! I'll freeze to death if I give them to you!"

"Hahahahaha!" xN

Well, it sounds like he is just a silly kid who knows nothing.

Hongshu, who was held in his arms, twitched his mouth and looked up quietly at Yun Xianhe's expression.

Hmm...who was the person who just followed him and killed everyone in the jungle?

"Those two pieces of rags of yours are worthless even if you sell them. Come up quickly!"

Seeing Old Tom urging them again and again, Yun Xianhe slowly paddled twice to get their boat closer to the big ship.

"I'll go up first, you wait down below, if you find something wrong, run away."

The solemn tone was carried far away by the night wind.

If Yun Xianhe hadn't had a smile on his face while standing with his back to the pirates, Hongshu might have believed it.

Hiroki, who was forced to board the "pirate ship", nodded expressionlessly, pretending to be very worried:

"Brother, you have to be careful."

When the brave man heard the word "brother", he was stunned at first, and then rubbed the other's head hard twice.

"Don't worry, I'm your brother."
