dramatic death

Yin Tong saw the doorknob turned half a circle, someone pushed the door open, and let out a small sound: "Huh?"

Holding the book in his hand, he met the visitor's eyes.Tong Shuyao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, blinked and smiled at him, closed the door softly, and rushed to him in two or three steps.

"What are you looking at?" He leaned over and bent over to examine the book in Yintong's hand, and made a "tsk tsk" comment, "The painting is really disgusting, your school violence should stop, my little one The girl hasn't done anything bad, she's just a little withdrawn, is she worthy of bullying?"

we?

Yin Tong blinked, and let go of the book to the curious Tong Shuyao.However, Mr. Tong didn't know whether he didn't pay attention or his hand slipped. His fingertips brushed the black ghostly symbols on the page, and let it fall on the messy floor.

The bright red sunset suddenly distorted for a moment, as if something split the whole space, even Tong Shuyao's face was cut into an unbelievable look.Yin Tong saw that the half of his face above the eyes and his mouth moved into different planes, like a crooked cake, and the whole head moved horizontally into a strange "Z".

"what happened?"

He saw Tong Shuyao's lips on the lower half of his face wriggling and making such a sound.

Then the space is refitted, and the misplaced plane is pushed back to its original position.Yin Tong staggered back half a step, watching the light sand of the setting sun condense into a light screen in mid-air, floating in front of Tong Shuyao, showing the unique logo of ELF company.

"Welcome to Hakoniwa Online."

He heard a familiar sound, exactly the same as the previous system beep, a strange, disgusting sticky tone.

"Congratulations to player Yintong for picking up the quest item and officially opening the mainline dungeon."

"The system prompt interface is opened, the copy progress bar is opened, the map is opened, and the friend list is opened."

"I wish the players a happy game."

It was an extremely eerie scene.

Yintong has never realized that he is in a copy of a virtual game more clearly than now. He saw his avatar and name appear on the light screen in front of him, the progress bar of the copy, and the HP that is still decreasing below it .

The flickering debuff under HP reads: [The player is starving].

Dare to really eat a pack of potato chips +10HP.

He felt that he had once again refreshed his understanding of Cheng Mingque's "crow's mouth", and secretly decided that no matter what this kid said in the future, he would really take it seriously.His health has dropped to 80%, as if he will fall down due to hypoglycemia in a few hours, but now his progress in the mainline dungeon is still 2%, conservatively estimated, he will have to speed up in this dungeon no matter what After four or five hours.

What did Tong Shuyao say when he entered the main plot last time?Dong Tiantian and the others seem to be holding a meeting in the activity room?

Yin Tong looked at the bright red blood strip under his head, and for the first time despaired of his hunger tolerance.

It's a pity that the game process will not be suspended because of your daze. Before Yin Tong could study and understand his prompt interface, Tong Shuyao's hand had already passed through the virtual light screen floating in mid-air and stretched out in front of him, constantly She shook her hand, trying to interrupt his thoughts.Tong Yongyi, who had misplaced the money just a few minutes ago, returned to his healthy, normal, and lively appearance, with two huge dark circles under his eyes, yawning and trying to call Yintong's attention back.

"What are you thinking about?" Tong Shuyao asked.

Yin Tong blinked, and his gaze stayed on the book in his hand.

Tong Shuyao had already picked up the "task props", flipping through it quickly, marveling at the ghost symbols on the book, he said: "You can do it, a class of stinky brats and crazy girls who bully you A little girl who doesn't know anything, look at the pile of things on her desk, you can write."

Yin Tong followed his line of sight and saw a bunch of swear words on the table behind him.

The scope is quite wide, and one can imagine what the people who wrote it are in contact with on a daily basis.

"We didn't do it." He retorted reflexively, before realizing that he didn't know who the perpetrator was.However, this sentence came out almost as it should be, as if he had said it and done it in the first place.

Yin Tong looked at the filthy graffiti on the table, the blots of oily marker pens were still wet, and there was a layer of disgusting greasy under the setting sun.

He suddenly remembered the reminder on the back of Dong Tiantian's white card.

"tips10: No one can change fate."

An Qi once said when he just solved the "little painter": the novice guide is a game based on his memory, its BadEnding is the result he least wants to see, HappyEnding is the result he most wants to see, and TrueEnding is The real outcome of this event in his memory.

Christie also said: Hakoniwa Online is GM's Hakoniwa.

If the entire game mechanism is based on "adapted from real experience", then can Yintong think that these main plots also belong to a collection of memories of one person or several people.

And these people are the GM in Christie's mouth.

It is equivalent to excluding the novice teaching based on the player's personal "most feared memory", the judgment mechanism of the rest of the game levels is based on the GM's preferences. BadEnding is the result that GM least wants to see, HappyEnding is the result that GM most wants to see, and TrueEnding is the real result of this matter.

TrueEnding=reality=the past forgotten by Yintong

Then, Hakoniwa Online's so-called GM must be an "acquaintance" who has participated in Yintong's life.

Who is TA?

……

Who is the GM of Hakoniwa Online?

In the real world, which is countless dimensions away from the game, Wen Qi is also struggling with this problem.

He and Xu Jingchen, the main person in charge of ELF's box court online project, sat face to face in the interrogation room, separated by a single-sided glass, and engaged in a silent confrontation that no one wanted to speak.The [-]-square-meter interrogation room was empty and deserted. Xu Jingchen sat on a chair in the center of the room, with his eyes closed and his back straight, as if he was basking in the sun in his own backyard.

He looked as if he had fallen asleep, or was meditating in his mind. If the monitoring device hadn't indicated that his physical condition was normal, Wen Qi would have thought that he had committed suicide by taking poison.

What kind of person is psychologically strong enough to stay in a small dark room for 10 hours with eyes closed?

Wen Qi stood up with her hands clasped, looked condescendingly at the suspect opposite through the single-sided glass, and then opened the door of the interrogation room with a big stride.

He thought, Xu Jingchen might be a lunatic.

Ten hours ago, Ke Xuan took Xu Jingchen out of ELF's private studio, and drove him all the way back to the interrogation room.There are too many reasons for this young talent to be investigated. Leaving aside the fact that he suspected of blowing up a toy store in the commercial street of Central City, the large-scale online game in their studio that killed 10 people in an instant is enough to send him off. He entered the White Tower to enjoy the rest of his life.

——After the new era, because of some "groundless" humanitarianism, the relevant departments canceled the "violent act" of the death penalty. Considering the per capita life expectancy of 370 years, the sentence of a few hundred years of thought reform is not considered inhumane .

Wen Qi pushed open the door of the meeting room, sat on a chair and rubbed her temples.

The premise is that they can send people in.

"Until now, there is no evidence to prove that the young talent in the interrogation room was related to the explosion in the commercial street," Tang Yue poured a glass of water and put it on the table in front of Wen Qi, sliding the virtual light screen in mid-air Gave him a plate, "He still didn't say anything?"

Wen Qi leaned her head on the back of the chair, did not look at the light screen, closed her eyes and sneered, "Except for the sentence: 'What reason did you arrest me?', I didn't say anything. I was just wondering , Did so many people in the commercial street die in vain? Were all the people who fell during the internal test of Hakoniwa Online made of plastic? Are these not enough to hold people accountable?"

Tang Yue adjusted the information on the light screen, and sighed: "Strictly speaking, it's not enough. At present, we don't have any evidence to prove that Xu Jingchen is directly related to the opening of the closed beta of Hakoba Online. After all, when the game started, this guy has been The chief is tied back. He claimed that Hakoniwa Online has its own GM, and that GM controls the entire game's operating mechanism. The players who are now in a coma are all caused by the GM. He himself can only be regarded as being cheated at best. "

"Cheated?" Wen Qi opened her eyes, looked at the ceiling above her head and laughed, "He is the general manager of the project, he said he was cheated by his employees, how could he?"

Tang Yue nodded: "He was embarrassed, he was really embarrassed, because he said that the GM disappeared a few days ago, do you know who disappeared a few days ago?"

Wen Qi turned her head and met Tang Yue's indifferent eyes.

"The S-level search warrant from the Academy of Sciences, a red-hot high-urgency mission," Tang Yue said, "It's impossible not to receive it on your terminal. According to Xu Jingchen, the GM he is talking about should refer to that one."

eve

——The terminal brain of Central City

She used to live under the hexagonal attic in the center of Central City, and was the first mechanical girl named "New Human".

It has the highest authority to connect to the city's optical network.

How capable is Xu Jingchen to drive Eve to do things for him?Was that little girl kidnapped, or did she "run away from home on a whim"?

Wen Qi straightened up and checked the light screen Tang Yue gave him: "Has there been a reply from the Academy of Sciences?"

"The reply said: wait for the reply from the superior department." Tang Yue smiled, with a rare sense of sarcasm in his expression. All the clues came from bystanders, and no human tissue could be collected from the residue after the explosion. ELF announced that the 'explosion' was a physical projection of Hakoniwa Online, that is to say, except for the one we brought back from the scene, the Aside from the soldier figure in the head, there is no evidence that there was an explosion in that area that day."

"In this era where virtual projections can be faked, the evidence collected by the naked eye is nothing but empty words. But you don't have to rush there, it has now been taken over by the Academy of Sciences."

Wen Qi stood at the door of the conference room with her back to him, her clenched fists even trembling slightly.

"So we're being tricked again?" His voice was deep and deep, with a distinct hint of ridicule. "Does the Academy of Sciences treat us as dogs? Take them out for a walk if they are useful, and put them back in the cage if they are useless?"

Tang Yue pulled another chair and sat down next to him.

He took a deep breath, and swiped the webpage window on the light screen with downcast eyes: "We are dogs. We are used by the higher authorities to monitor the Academy of Sciences, and the Academy of Sciences uses us to guard the gate. If you still want to save your brother, sit back quickly. So much time for you to lose your temper."

"A person can't live for five days without eating or drinking. I remember that your brother is still the key care object of this broken game? What's his name?"

"It seems to be, 'Yintong'?"
