My Arknights Life Diary

"Nancy! You're finally here!"

At the border of Saeki District, Tufang and Sasaki finally met the person they were waiting for.

Nancy looked at Tu Fang who was coming over, and without saying much, she directly initiated a request for consciousness access.

"Visit? Of course!"

Nancy did this to find the meme as quickly as possible, and soon she found the concept.

"(DATA EXPUNGED) Well... it's not that hard to handle."

As she said this, Nancy took out a baseball bat. As for where she got it from, no one knows.

"Wait, Mr. Tu Fang, what is Ms. Nancy doing?"

Sasaki looked at Nancy who was walking towards them step by step with cold eyes, and couldn't help but grab Tu Fang's arm beside him.

"I don't know either. Nancy, what are you going to do? Are you trying to murder your master?"

Tu Fang asked.

"Mr. Tu Fang, I just want to give you a treatment to clear the contaminated meme and its derivative concepts in your mind."

Nancy said this and walked step by step to Tu Fang.

Boom!

"Then take out a baseball bat, woo!"

Tu Fang was about to say something when he felt dizzy in his head.

“Don’t worry, it’s normal to feel dizzy, Mr. Tu Fang, and everything will be over when you wake up again.

Then, Mr. Sasaki, please behave yourself."

Will Sasaki listen to Nancy's words in a cold tone? Definitely not!

He was running as far away as he could.

only.........

For some reason, he ran back to where he was!

"Um...I..."

Sasaki was a little stuttering. Why did he keep encountering weird things today?

In order to fulfill her promise to Sato, she left Hanako's arms early, bought two servings of takoyaki, and prepared to satisfy that man.

But God knew that when he passed by this broken place, he would encounter such a weird thing. He had finally found someone who could save his life.

But who knew that the person who saved his life would bring about something even more bizarre!

Seeing Sasaki stuttering out of fear, Nancy was too lazy to deal with him anymore and simply hit him on the back of the head with a stick.

"The two communicators have evolved, and I already know what the meme is, so now it's time to deal with the main course..."

Nancy said this, swung the baseball bat twice, and walked towards the strange darkness of the Saeki district.

............

"The meme that is known to be spreading is (DATA EXPUNGED) strange story, which specifically states that polluters who enter the Saeki district at night will be chased by some kind of concrete thing.

And as time goes by, the hunted will gradually become separated from the physical universe, and at the same time, the hunted will gradually lose the concept of the physical universe.

In the physical universe, the concept of the hunted will also disappear, and the hunted will eventually be completely lost in the 'Saibo District'. At the same time, everything about the hunted in the real universe will also disappear......

Now that I have realized all this, then...it has indeed appeared."

Nancy looked at the figure that appeared around the corner and spoke in a flat tone.

"To deal with something like this, conceptual 'erasure' is more troublesome, but relatively simple 'replacement' is much easier.

I have something with this function in my space, so the game is over."

Nancy was talking to herself when suddenly an unknown device appeared in her hand.

"Authorization confirmed, code name Nancy, level 1 clearance, access allowed."

"Order issued, replace the concept (DATA EXPUNGED) Ghost Story and all its derivatives with the Saiki District Ghost Story, Silent Saihara.

The scope of application, all concepts of (data deletion) and their derivatives, are activated. "

"Authorization is being confirmed, second level authority, continue access, executing, concept distortion and replacement in progress..."

...........

"S~Where am I?"

Tu Fang covered his head and sat up from the roadside recliner. Then he saw Nancy sitting at the other end of the recliner reading a book.

"Hmm? Mr. Tu Fang, you're awake. How do you feel?"

"I'm fine, but for some reason there's a big bump on my head, and it hurts. By the way, Silent Zuo Yuan, have you solved it? Oh, that's not right! I was obviously talking about Silent Zuo Yuan, that's not right...

What on earth is that, um...?"

"It has been solved. You are capable of solving it on your own. I still want to say it again. If you have time, you can really read the instructions for using those props carefully."

Nancy closed the book in her hand and said seriously.

"Got it, got it. By the way, where's Sasaki?"

“He has already gone home with the takoyaki.”

"Eh? Didn't his takoyaki get lost?"

"It was lost before the modification, so naturally it is still in his hands after the modification."

"Wait, how did you solve that thing?"

Tu Fang vaguely sensed something was wrong.

"It's just a modification of the concept. This is the simplest way. Small-scale concept erasure is a bit troublesome. As for large-scale... although the hardware can do it, the authority is insufficient."

"Wait, just to solve this thing, you want to carry out a large-scale erasure of the concept of reality?"

Tu Fang was a little surprised. Nancy was playing a bigger game than himself. He could only drop antimatter bombs in some places at most, but this guy actually wanted to carry out a large-scale conceptual wipe.

"This is the safest method, and it has been used frequently by humans in the past. After all, many powerful subspace creatures have extremely strong memetic contamination.

Take the memetic contamination for example. My initial guess is that it might be because some concept or something has been affected by the subspace.

And strictly speaking, this memetic contamination is very restrictive, and it is relatively simple to deal with. At least it has not yet affected the timeline."

Nancy explained.

"Okay, but I still have a few questions. How can we erase and modify the concept of reality on a large scale?

Also, why doesn't my reality correction device work on that thing? Isn't it something created by the subspace?

And why are my ghost stories different from Sasaki's? I haven't encountered some of the situations he described, such as getting lost. "

At this moment, Tu Fang had forgotten his previous embarrassment and was left with only curiosity.

“If the Earth or Terra wants to carry out a large-scale erasure of the concept of reality, in addition to the hardware system requirements, there must also be software requirements.

One of the methods is to access the main system and erase the selected target in the main system, but unfortunately our base does not have the authority to access the main system.

Dr. Summer Wind is a member of the escape faction, and only those doctors who remain on Earth have access to the main system.

For example, the Prophet, the Priestess, or the Preserver, or some equipment of the survival plan, such as the Heavenly Fulcrum or the Deep Blue Tree, these devices also have the ability to access the main system. "

"Oh, that artificial heaven. By the way, can I ask what the large-scale erasure of reality you mentioned is?"

"Let me correct your statement. It is the main system, not the artificial heaven. Also, the scope of the erasure is probably to erase the past, present and future of the entire New Aki City, so that the concept of New Aki City will disappear completely."

Tu Fang:........

Oh well, it turns out that this Nancy is playing bigger games than me.

"Then the next question is, why doesn't my reality correction device work on that thing? Didn't you say that thing was also created by the subspace?"

"I have said before that reality correction devices have many derivatives, and the pollution is not essentially a distortion of the reality of the subspace, but a modification of its essence.

I will give you an example of a similar modification. For example, sometimes the subspace will subtly affect the genes of organisms, allowing normal organisms with psychic talents to directly communicate with the subspace. "

"I have one last question. Why do I feel that the memetic contamination has a much smaller effect on me than on Sasaki?"

Tu Fang had already sat up at this time. He still remembered some things that happened when he encountered that strange story.

At that time, Sasaki told him not to run around, otherwise he would get lost, but Tu Fang never felt lost at all, and even ran out of the scope of the ghost story.

Even when Tu Fang was stabbed with a knife, it only hurt when it hurt, and when he ignored the wound, the wound was truly gone.

"Your concept as a Tu Fang and its derivative concepts are strong concepts, and this meme has little impact on your concept."

"Wait, when did I become a strong concept?"

Nancy didn't say anything, but silently sent Tu Fang a long list of reinforcement projects that Tu Fang had blindly checked that year.

"All right........"

"Well, Mr. Tu Fang, if there is nothing else, I will go back first. Do you want to go back to the hotel with me?"

Nancy said this and turned around as if waiting for Tu Fang's answer.

"Well... forget it. My computer is still on in the internet cafe and I want to go back and play games. Oh, wait a minute."

Tu Fang was halfway through his words when he saw Nancy was about to leave, so he called out to her.

"Since you won't go back to the hotel with me, what else can I do for you?"

"Nothing, let's talk while we walk. Anyway, it's convenient for you to go back to the hotel and I to go to the Internet cafe."

Tu Fang looked around at the darkness and felt that it would be a bit creepy if he walked this road alone.

"Ah."

Nancy responded, then stopped and waited for Tu Fang to come over.

"Well, Nancy, by the way, the ancient civilization's method of treating that kind of pollution was to hit you on the head with a baseball bat?"

"of course not."

"Then why did you hit me on the head with a baseball bat just now, and why did it hurt so much? And you called it treatment or something."

"Didn't you use a baseball bat to treat a patient who was contaminated by the subspace before in the Great Wasteland City? I thought Mr. Tu Fang, you were very interested in this treatment method."

"Uh... Although, I still feel like you're secretly messing with me..."

"Mr. Tu Fang, do you think this is possible?"

"I think it's very possible."

Nancy：………………

"I accept your malicious speculation, but please believe that I have my own principles as an AI."

"What principle?"

"We are here to serve you 100%. The malicious retaliation you mentioned does not exist."

"Come on, it's a bit corny when you say that, but to be honest, sometimes I feel like you really don't look like an AI, you look like a real person........."

"Well, my thinking ability is not weak."

Nancy just nodded.

"But, Nancy, are you sure that you can solve this weird story by doing that?"

"Mr. Tu Fang, do you think that strange story exists on this land?"

“It definitely exists!”

Tu Fang said that he was an eyewitness and it was not false at all.

"As long as it exists on this land, my method will definitely be able to solve it. Mr. Tu Fang, you need to understand that anything is reasonable because it exists, not because it exists because it is reasonable."

Nancy said this earnestly.

"I still don't quite understand..."

"Well, I sent you some information. You can read it more when you have time. People like you were no different from illiterate people in that era."

Tu Fang:............

It hurts! Lao Xi!
