Absolute Zone Zero: I survive in Liufen Street

"Keleda~"

"what happened?"

"I'm a little cold. Can you give me a hug?" Outside the lounge door, Fu Fu lowered her head and listened to the crying sounds from inside. She hugged her body with her arms and asked softly.

The icy coldness that came from the host Bai Yu, which seemed to freeze the mind, had begun to be replaced by warmness.

But the feeling of despair that emerged from the depths of Bai Yu's heart and instantly filled his entire sea of ​​consciousness had been deeply imprinted in Fu Fu's data body.

Such vivid emotions made the nascent system taste its own "fear" for the first time.

At the core of the data body suspended in the center of Bai Yu's sea of ​​consciousness, a string of brilliant code began to differentiate. Golden streams of data began to evolve and calculate around this point, and small fragments of illusory data appeared and disappeared.

Fu Fu instinctively felt that something extremely important to him was happening, but he didn't know what it was.

I just subconsciously wanted to dispel the coldness at the moment, but I didn't know how to do it. I could only clumsily imitate the host to ask for warmth from others.

"Ah? Yes, sure! If you're cold, I'll give you my coat." Kelida, whose eyes were originally a little red, immediately turned her attention back to Fu Fu when she heard her question, and was about to take off her coat while speaking.

Unexpectedly, before Koleda took off her clothes, a soft body threw itself into her arms and hugged her waist tightly.

This made Koleda freeze completely, and she was at a loss as to what to do.

Kollida looked at Grace for help, but found that she was holding her cheeks with both hands, with an excited blush on her face, looking at them both with a loving expression.

After Anton and Lao Hei found out, they were very pleased and sighed that their president finally had a good peer.

None of these thick-skinned guys understood Kelida's embarrassment.

"Keleda, human relationships are so strange~

They were strangers with no blood relationship and had only known each other for a short time. They had no experience of sharing hardships and no benefits to gain.

Why would you still care about another person from the bottom of your heart, feel sad for him, worry about him? You give your heart without asking for anything in return, just wanting to make the other person live a better life.

Fufu couldn't understand." Fufu leaned on Keleda's shoulder, half-lidded her eyes.

Beneath the glittering tears, a cold golden light of data shone in her eyes. The expression on her delicate and lovely face, buried in the crook of Keleda's neck, at this moment revealed the inhuman nature of the system.

Susan's question was also conveyed to Fu Fu, who shared the sea of ​​consciousness with Bai Yu.

Anger, worry, self-blame, heartache, that mixture of sour, bitter and acrid, strong and complex taste, stimulated Fu Fu so much that she frowned.

As a system that uses emotions as energy, Fu Fu is unable to cope with it and is unable to analyze the reasons for such complex emotions.

The newly created small system's understanding of human emotions stems from the carriers of human fantasy. Without a host, the emotions it can capture are very shallow, simple, and pure.

But emotions in reality are far more complicated than what words can describe, because many of them are illogical.

Anger can come from love, worry can be accompanied by joy, but sadness doesn't necessarily mean disgust.

145, who was floating in the cracks of space observing humans, thought he had collected enough information. However, the three months he spent as Fu Fu bound to his host Bai Yu made all the previous information become false conclusions that could not be applied to real emotions like mathematical formulas.

Especially today, Susan's outburst of emotion towards her host, Bai Yu, was felt. The surging emotional energy directly impacted Fu Fu's immature and immature thinking logic, bringing endless confusion.

Digital life, which exists with logic at its core, truly feels that carbon-based life is nothing but a chaotic mess. There's simply no solution.

Fu Fu shook her head unhappily, which made Kolleda feel itchy. She couldn't help but hold Fu Fu's little head and touch it.

In response to Fufu's question, Keleda thought seriously for a while and said, "I don't know how to answer this kind of question.

Because everyone's ideas are different, I can only give my own answer for your reference.

If I were to ask you, it's probably because of "feelings." There are some people who, when you see them, you feel so familiar and want to get closer.

But it's more likely because we have similar personalities and situations, and we are "of the same kind."

"Hey? Same kind?"

“Maybe someone is kind by nature.

But more people have learned how to treat others well from others.

Having received kind help, when I see others in the same predicament, I naturally want to pass on this gentle kindness.

Some people, who once had no strength and could not wait for help, now see their former selves and want to help themselves out of difficulties.

In helping others, perhaps we are also helping our past or future selves.”

"...It's so complicated, I don't quite understand." Fufu was still confused. The golden data within the main body trembled, trying to form and operate, but it always fell a little short.

"The heart of love comes from 'self-love'." After being glared at by Keleida for several times, Grace surrendered to her helplessly.

She walked over, squatted down, and hugged Fufu and Keleda in her arms, saying, "Because we value ourselves, we empathize with the suffering of others and feel compassion.

Because we are taught by "love", we learn to "love" others.

Those who have nothing long for love. Some choose to plunder, while others choose to love their former selves. This is the answer I can give now.

But as Fu Fu said, humans are very complex creatures. It is impossible to classify them into models as clearly and standardly as machines. Even in a few years, my answer may not be the same as it is now.

So there is no so-called "correct" answer to this question.

Fufu is still young now. When she grows up and encounters enough people and things, she will get her own answer."

"But I need this 'answer' right now! !" Fu Fu opened her eyes, pulled herself out of the two men's arms, and pushed open the door of the lounge.

Inside the door, Bai Yu and Susan, their faces covered in tears, looked at Fu Fu in surprise. Before they could feel embarrassed, Fu Fu rushed in front of them and asked anxiously, "Please tell me now, why do you care about each other?! And why each other?!"

"Fu Fu?! You... ask this suddenly..." Susan quickly composed herself. Faced with such a direct question from Fu Fu, she felt both embarrassed and confused.

"What's wrong, Fu Fu? What happened?" Bai Yu wiped the tears from his face, supported her unsteady body as she rushed over, and looked into Fu Fu's eyes with concern.

As a host closely connected to the system, Bai Yu, who had calmed down, immediately felt the changes in the system itself in his sea of ​​consciousness.

The golden data body was running at high speed, trembling and shrinking and expanding continuously, and the falling numbers were splashing everywhere in the sea of ​​consciousness.

"Xiaobai~ I, I don't know." Fufu was so anxious that she was about to cry, but she couldn't say what was wrong with her. She could only urgently urge Baiyu to answer, "Xiaobai, tell me quickly! Why?!"

The data being deduced at high speed in the core of the data body began to slow down, and the golden shadow gradually turned a dangerous red.

The blue data stream hidden in the core code inserts the new code that is about to take shape, trying to slow down the speed of the entire code formation.

"I..." Bai Yu glanced at the people around him. Although he felt very ashamed to reveal his true feelings in front of so many unfamiliar people,

But Fu Fu is more important than my own feelings. "Because I feel genuine care and kindness from Susan.

It was she who made me realize the reality of the "world" and, through that, my own reality.

And all she saw was "me", without any additional "strings attached".

She is the only person besides my mother who made me feel that Bai Yu is worthy of being loved."

"Xiaobai, I don't understand. So what exactly is "love"?!" Fu Fu asked softly in confusion and despair. She knew every word Bai Yu said, but when they were put together, she couldn't understand a single word.

Instinct told Fufu that time was running out. Something that would fundamentally affect Him was about to take shape.

"Fu Fu!! Think about you and me!!" Bai Yu looked at Fu Fu's confused eyes, and he also felt that something bad was about to happen.

He held Fufu's shoulders, completely ignoring everyone around him, and said urgently: "Think about us, how you and I feel together, and everything we have been through.

Fufu, why did you save me, protect me, and help me? Think about it quickly! ! !

The starlight in Bai Yu's sea of ​​consciousness stirred up waves, tightly wrapping the system's trembling data body.

The white starlight gradually merged into the golden data stream, bringing about new changes.

"Why?... Because Xiaobai is very good." Fu Fu's empty eyes slowly lit up.

Fufu couldn't understand human emotions, but when she put herself in Baiyu's shoes, it was as if she had input the correct formula and immediately got the corresponding answer: "Xiaobai, you can hear my voice and work hard for me. You won't think I'm stupid or useless.

He always patiently held my hand, took me to experience different things, and stayed with me forever..."

The moment Fu Fu came up with the answer, the data code that seeped into the starlight faded from its bright red color and turned into a string of warm orange data, which was completely formed and integrated into the original data core.

The golden data body became stable again and operated faster.

Fu Fu's originally vague and superficial perception and analysis of human emotions immediately increased in speed.

Fu Fu, who was panicking and helpless, immediately laughed and said loudly, "Xiao Bai cares about my feelings very much. Even if he doesn't understand why I suddenly ask such a strange question, he will answer me very seriously.

Even if it would be embarrassing, he would not give me a perfunctory response.

I like Xiaobai the most!!”

"...You know I'll be embarrassed." Bai Yu looked at Fu Fu who had finally returned to normal and let out a long breath.

The incident happened so suddenly that Bai Yu had no time to think about the feelings of the bystanders.

Now that the matter has come to an end, Bai Yu began to reflect on himself and wonder how many misleading and strange words he had just said.

Bai Yu collapsed, covering his eyes, not daring to turn around and look at the people around him. He prayed with all his heart, "May the world be destroyed right now!" Or, "May he be destroyed too."

"Hehe~" Although she had a better understanding of human emotions, Fu Fu still hadn't learned to be embarrassed. She put her hands on her hips and moved her gaze to the audience who were silently watching the two of them.

"Forehead……"

Those who came into contact with Fu Fu's gaze couldn't help but look up at the sky, pick their nails, and stroke their hair, but they didn't dare to look Fu Fu in the eye. They really just felt embarrassed for others.

"Where is Sister Susan? Xiaobai just said that Sister Susan hasn't answered my question yet." But Fu Fu didn't intend to let everyone go. She stared at Susan with her bright eyes.

"Ah? This is not over yet..." Susan took a step back and realized for the first time that the usually soft and sweet girl was actually as dark inside as her sister!

Bai Yu, who had already become autistic, couldn't help but tilt his head when he heard Fu Fu's words, and some gaps appeared between his tightly closed fingers.

"No, I...well, I am..." Facing everyone's curious gazes, Susan's face was already red and she stammered and found it difficult to speak.

Susan felt that it would be better for her to write ten investigative reports on family matters than to ask her to speak her true feelings in public like Bai Yu did.

"...What are you all doing here?" Officer Zheng walked over with a water cup in hand, looking puzzled. He looked at the group of strangers and asked, "Susan, why aren't you off duty yet?"

"Master!" Susan swore that this was the happiest time she had ever felt seeing her master since she met him.

At this moment, Officer Zheng, from his ordinary crew cut to every wrinkle on his face, exuded the radiance of a savior. This moved Susan to tears.

Officer Zheng: “……?”
