There was only nothingness around, Chen You seemed to have turned on some switch in his mind, he walked uncontrollably and kept walking, unable to stop for a while.
Until a door suddenly appeared, and there was a screen-like sign hanging on the door, with a few words written on it—Main System Office. Being scratched gave people an extremely solemn feeling, and it was also extremely dangerous.
Without raising his foot to go in, Chen looked around again. There was no one, no house, and no other decorations. He swallowed, what's going on
He was still crying in Li Yan's arms a moment ago, but now he appeared in an inexplicable place.
Different dimension
Chen You recalled what the mechanical voice said. He could hear every word clearly. He understood the meaning, but he didn't understand anything. The system staff number 333, isn't that the colleague of the fourth child? After completing the assessment and being promoted to the main system, it means getting promoted and getting rich.
But what does this have to do with him
Remembering that there was still a work card, Chen looked down again. He didn't know when there was a certificate hanging on his chest. He stared wide-eyed and took a long time to pick up the certificate. The capital letter, CY, is a black seal in the lower left corner.
CY, shouldn't it be the abbreviation of Chen You
[Master, Xiaolu misses you so much.]
Suddenly there was a sound next to his ear, like the kind of dolls he bought when he was a child, which would make a tone when he squeezed it. Chen You was shocked. He looked back, forth, left, and right, and there was no fart.
[The master is looking for Xiaolu?]
Is not this nonsensical? If you don't fucking show up and just talk, I will pee in fright, okay? Chen You really wanted to break his throat.
[Little green is the seal of the master.]
what? seal? Chen You hurried to grab the ID, staring at the black seal on it, can this thing still talk? Is it electronic? high tech? Fuck, who is going to slap me
Without thinking, he said, "You said you were a seal, but this seal is black."
[Oh, that's because the master is colorblind.]
Chen You, "..."
[Little green congratulations to the master for being successfully promoted to become the main system, and there will definitely be a lot of money in the future.]Chen can understand the second half of the sentence. As for the first half of the sentence, what the hell? !
He stared at the certificate for a long time before he could not find a single flower, what should he do? No one asked, the only thing that could talk was a smart little thing, with one master at a time, obviously something went wrong.
After standing outside the door for an indeterminate amount of time, Chen You really had no other choice, so he walked in the door.
He was shocked by the sight in front of him, is this really an office, not a park
Clouds and mist float in one corner, the lake is clear, and lotus leaves are covered in pieces. With the wind gently rippling, the bright red lotus stands quietly. One end of the wooden bridge is at Chen You's feet, extending to the gazebo in the lake. Swimming around, playing and frolicking in the lake, there is a faint melodious sound of guqin floating from a distance.
The little thing on the document is constantly wow-wh-wh.
Chen You also thought wow.
[Master, this is the office set up by the former master system, you can modify the data at will.]Chen You's hands and feet are stiff, quiet, he needs it very much now, "Stop calling me master, we don't know each other well, and I don't like people who know each other."
[Xiaolu is not a human being.]
Chen You almost fell headfirst into the lake, he looked back, the door was still there, standing alone, quite strange.
A gust of wind blew by, and goose bumps appeared on Chen You's body. The coolness was very real. He pursed his lips, walked onto the wooden bridge, and walked towards the pavilion step by step.
There is a lot of space in the pavilion, with a white screen, a chair, and nothing else, it looks like an office.
Chen You sat on the chair. From his perspective, he could take in all the beautiful scenery on the lake. When he moved his nose, he could still smell the faint fragrance of lotus.
This kind of office is only in a dream.
A line of words suddenly appeared on the white screen: Identity verification completed, do you accept data recall
"reject!"
Although Chen You still couldn't figure out what the situation was, he subconsciously felt that recalling the data was a very bad choice.
The writing on the screen disappears, and then reappears, accompanied by the sound of ding: Reminder, the data will be automatically recalled in ten minutes, please do not leave the DL area.
Chen You went crazy, where is the DL area
[Master is so stupid, it is your current position.]
Chen vomited blood again, he stood up anxiously from the chair, and wanted to run out of the pavilion, damn it, I don't know what happened, he couldn't move, not even a single finger.
[Master, you have been locked, Xiaolu is so nervous, master, you are finally coming back!]Chen You's blood rushed to the top of his head, just when he was at a loss, a light curtain shot out from the white screen, covering him.
At that moment, the wind in all directions stopped, the clouds and mists solidified, the crucian carp in the lake stopped swimming, the lotus leaves became stiff, and the area was still.
Not only how long did it take, maybe three to five minutes, and it seemed like ten minutes, the light curtain faded, the clouds and mist floated into the distance, the wind passed through the gazebo, dancing around the lotus leaves, the carp jumped up, and sprinkled golden colors on the lake. of water light.
Everything returned to its original appearance, and the brief stillness seemed to have never happened.
Chen You opened his closed eyes, as if covered with a black cloth, without any emotion, he sat back on the chair and said calmly, "Xiaolu, long time no see."
[Woooooooo master... master...]
Chen You raised his hand and pressed on the screen, and a page appeared with various icons densely arranged on it. He clicked on an icon, and first changed the background of the small bridge and flowing water.
Looking at the dynamic picture of the blossoming chrysanthemums, Chen You put his hands on his abdomen, fingers intertwined, "How?"
[Xiaolu feels that this is not in line with the master's taste.]
Chen also said, "I think so too."
After he finished speaking, he went to set up again. The dynamic picture of the chrysanthemum disappeared, replaced by a gray sky. From time to time, a drop of rainwater would slide down, leaving a water mark on the screen, as if it was really raining.
The gazebo was silent.
Chen You half-closed his eyes and sorted out the whole assessment process.
One day, while he was working, he suddenly received a notification from the main program asking him to prepare for the assessment of the main system. He also mentioned three major points of the assessment, love, friendship, and family affection.
It is said that 000 and 111 have become a legal couple, and 222 was originally a human from a lower planet. During the period when the other party was the host, he had an emotional bond with the mission target. In the end, in order to maintain balance, he could not get out.
Among the four people with similar qualifications, he is the only one who doesn't have any of the three emotions.
That's why the main program will select him to be the next main system. Of course, that must be after passing the assessment.
After receiving the notice, Chen asked for leave to stay at home and made a detailed and complete plan for his own assessment, which can be called seamless.
Family love is Chen Weidong and his wife, friendship is Xia Hong, Xiao Langgou and the others. As for love, Chen uses an intelligent virus created by himself, named KM, which acts as a gatekeeper and acts as a firewall. Protect his personal programs.
Once a foreign guest invades, KM will take the initiative to attack and destroy it directly to obtain energy.
Chen You is very satisfied with KM, he constantly perfects its functions, creates a body for it, and helps him to look after the house during his working hours.
Even cooking his life.
Chen You has a strong sense of self-protection. He knows that love is different from family and friendship. Fearing that there will be some uncontrollable accidents in the assessment, he thinks of a perfect plan, and throws the trusted KM into his plan, which becomes a crucial one. ring.
And added some data such as cruelty, ruthlessness, indifference, and bloodthirsty to KM, set up obstacles for his mission, and felt love from it.
Afterwards, according to the requirements of the assessment, Chen made earth-shaking adjustments to all his relevant data. To be precise, they had two completely different personalities.
In the real world, he is hailed as a legend on the Central Network, and the program code he wrote has not been broken so far. He is withdrawn, introverted, deep in the city, and good at calculating, while he is lively and cheerful in the assessment world, sunny, simple, kind, and has a very high IQ. Low, sometimes like a mental retardation.
He doesn't know how to cook and cook, he hates singing, dancing and playing games, he thinks it's a waste of time, and it's boring, and he hates any snacks.
The biggest hobby is to do boring things.
All assessment tasks were written and planned by Chen You, including clearing after the completion of the first task, instilling in him the wrong idea that the second task world is the real world, and using Chen Weidong's data to support him to the end. Finally, the value of family affection reaches the standard.
It was also Chen You's arrangement that 444 became a guardian. Even being sent to the last mission world to clear away the remnants of KM's escape, Ren Wu, a small pawn, was also in his plan.
Everything went on as usual, and the assessment passed smoothly without any miscalculation.
Chen You rubbed between his brows, is that really the case...
Not really.
During his mission, KM is also constantly transforming, and already has a sense of autonomy, no longer subject to his restraint and control.
After a while, Chen took off the task card again, intending to leave the virtual space.
[Master, won't you stay a little longer? Xiaolu had just spoken a few words to her master, and she still has a lot to say.] "Whispering."
Chen touched the seal again, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
In the next second, his figure disappeared.
There are some detached villas in Xihe District, with a large space between them and a wide area of green coverage. This area can’t be bought even if you have money. The people who live here are all engaged in special jobs. Their work and rest hours are different from ordinary people. Little contact, even never met.
There is a villa surrounded by trees, the surroundings are quiet, and there is not a single bird foraging.
Upstairs to a room to the north, the door opened, and Chen You, who was wearing home clothes, came out. His face was extremely pale, and there were clear blue shadows in his eyes. He stayed in the virtual space for a long time, completing the assessment without stopping. Task, mental overdraft is serious, need to rest for a period of time to recover.
Walking into the bedroom, Chen You leaned back and fell asleep on the bed. He slept for two days.
The main program has issued an announcement announcing who the new main system is.
Every system worker is a genius in a certain aspect. They wear equipment in their respective residences, enter the virtual space of the system network from consciousness data, and work in the virtual space of the system network. After leaving the system network, they return to the real world. No one knows them. each other.
Because a life-and-death agreement was signed, the staff were required to keep absolute confidentiality, and they could not disclose the work content to the outside world, so as not to arouse the curiosity of the public and cause chaos, even if it was a couple.
Unless there is a work overlap between employees, they can only contact each other. Not only must they sign another agreement, but they must also submit a request to their superiors.
The approval time is variable, maybe a few minutes, maybe two or three days, maybe it will take until the year of the monkey, it all depends on the mood of the boss.
Si Sisi and Wu Wuwu live in the same community, and they met once or twice when they were walking their dogs. Because of a work accident, they met in the virtual space, and only then did they know that they were in the same department and doing the same job.
This is the first time that the two have tacitly asked each other out, and they are very depressed and very complicated.
Si Sisi took a sip of coffee, "I feel like an idiot these days."
Wu Wuwu said, "I feel the same way."
What followed was a long, not short silence.
Si Sisi and Wu Wuwu hadn't thought about it at all. This was an assessment from the beginning to the end, and they were the examiners.
What kind of virus, what kind of data paralysis, what kind of high-level secret meeting, what kind of employees are punished, it's all fucking drama, other people are the protagonists, they are supporting roles.
The routine is too deep, and they are trapped.
Si Sisi put the cup on the table, his expression was not very good.
On the day he joined the company, he received all the content in the employee handbook, and knew that the main system would not be replaced unless force majeure, such as death, occurred.
The former main system probably died before a new one took over.
Si Sisi had only heard that the main system had to go through a special assessment before taking office. Who knew that such a big commotion would be made and everyone else would be involved. That person was completely making up and acting on his own.
Wu Wuwu said, "If you want to open it up, he will be our boss in the future, especially you, and you are pointing at him to give you bonuses."
The muscles on Si Sisi's face twitched, "You're just a soy saucer. You don't have as many scenes as me, and you're not as involved in the show as I am. I'm being played around. Can you say you want to play if you want?"
Thinking about it made him angry. He thought he accidentally discovered the secret that the real world was the first mission world. In order to remind Chen You, he not only came up with the script name of "The Fifth World", but also wrote all the information in the In the lyrics of that song.
Dare to love is set by that person for the purpose of assessment.
At the beginning, when the other party was dying, he had been watching in secret, and felt uncomfortable many times in his heart. He even thought about breaking the rules and taking the risk to help, and he really did.
It's over, he has a headache, Si Sisi clenched his fist with one hand and pressed it to his forehead, his complexion was darker than the bottom of the pot.
The person who entered the system network earlier than him, I don't know how long ago, the seniority is old, and he has been living in the legend. The content he has heard is enough to show that the other party is an out-of-group, friendless, and arrogant existence. .
The Chen You he knew was unrestrained, laughing and laughing, crying when he wanted to, laughing when he wanted to, he was clearly mentally retarded, he had no resemblance to the legendary Flower of Gaoling at all, how could they be the same person.
Si Si Si let out a long sigh. If there is a chance to meet him, he would serve tea to the boss and greet him respectfully. The bonus is important and irreplaceable.
My head hurts even more.
Wu Wuwu said abruptly, "Don't you still have that kind of thought about him?"
Si Sisi's face remained unchanged, "Which one?"
Wu Wuwu curled his lips and said with a smile, "You know what I mean."
Si Sisi also laughed, "I don't understand."
Wu Wuwu, "..."
He is the same as the unmasked 222. He is a creature of a lower planet. After completing the task, he took this job. He changed from the host's identity and worked on the system. He has been doing it for many years. It's not much love, it's just a habit Yes, moreover, they all have existences that they want to protect.
Si Sisi was different. He was a system worker from the beginning. He came from a famous family, rich and powerful, and he didn't have those ups and downs. He dismissed relationships as irrelevant.
"If you have time, I can introduce you. There are many single women around me, and the conditions are also good. There are also men."
Si Sisi said, "I don't have time."
Wu Wuwu's words were blocked as soon as he picked them out, and he couldn't continue.
Si Sisi pinched the bridge of his nose a few times, and looked at the street outside the window with his light gray eyes, "Tell me, if you pass the examination, that person who will put all the relatives, friends, and lovers in the virtual world, these corresponding characters Clear all data?"
Wu Wuwu was slightly stunned, it's difficult, the assessment will only be completed if you really put in it, but if you put in it, it means that you put your heart into it, and it's impossible to get out of the whole body.
He wasn't the same back then.
I thought that after completing all the tasks and going back, I would be able to forget about the people and things in the task world, and live a good life in the real world, get married and have children, be safe and happy, but it is impossible.
Thinking so in his heart, Wu Wuwu said another answer, "I don't know."
In front of a person who doesn't understand what love is, it's better not to say much, and the other party won't listen.
Si Sisi kept frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
Wu Wuwu stirred the coffee with a spoon, "Don't worry, it won't be long, maybe not until tomorrow, and you won't be entangled."
Si Sisi raised his eyes, "What do you mean?"
Wu Wuwu said, "Your and my memory will be cleaned up, some fragments about that person appeared during the assessment."
Si Sisi's expression changed again and again, "No way?"
Wu Wuwu shrugged and didn't explain any more. His meaning was clear and he would.
After parting, Si Sisi went back to his residence, went to get off work and left work as usual, just passed a few days without any movement.
He contacted Wu Wuwu, the only colleague he dealt with, "Don't clean it up?"
Wu Wuwu said that as far as he knew, it was necessary to do that according to the regulations, after all, it involved privacy, "Maybe it doesn't matter to that one."
Si Sisi couldn't tell whether he was relieved or whether it was not important.
More than a month later, Si Sisi went out for a walk with his dog, and met a man by the river. He was familiar with that figure from a distance, and when he walked over, the man turned his head.
They looked at each other, with light gray eyes on one side and jet black eyes on the other, with a tear mole at the corner of the eye.
Si Sisi was sneaking a real big white dog, and the other was a smart little yellow dog.
When Si Sisi was irritated and didn't know how to face the new boss, the other party spoke one step ahead of him, and said distantly, "Thank you."
Knowing what he was referring to, Si Sisi also replied with a concise reply, "You're welcome."
They rubbed shoulders and walked in the opposite direction.
Si Sisi gritted his teeth, turned around, strode after him, and grabbed him.
Not long after, the two sat in the dining room.
There is a rule in the restaurant that pets are not allowed in, except smart models, so Dabai from Si Sisi's family was taken to the temporary management area by the waiter, while Chen You's Xiao Huang was lying at his feet.
Si Sisi raised his forehead, impulsiveness is a devil, an idea that should be killed, he called people over, and after calming down, he didn't know what to say.
Chen took the menu and ordered, "What do you want to eat?"
Si Sisi was absent-minded, "Anything you want."
Chen You was really casual. After ordering, he opened the terminal to check out, and said coldly, "This time I treat guests, thank you for your help in my promotion assessment."
Si Sisi moved the corner of his mouth and gave a meaningless smile.
There are not many customers in this restaurant, and the dishes are served quickly. Those who can come in to eat are either rich or expensive.
Chen You ate the food on the plate, his movements were slow and orderly, the fingers holding the knife and fork were thin and white, showing a sickness, just like his face and lips.
That kind of paleness set off his loneliness and coldness, and he was thousands of miles away.
Si Sisi looked at his eyes and hurt, where did the little guy who used to pounce on food whenever he saw food go? He forked the steak a few times and tossed it aside boringly.
"why me?"
Before Chen You could answer, Si Sisi continued, "555 has a gentle personality, and he has always been patient and guides the hosts under him. Although 666 is stern and selfless, he is the most principled one and never digs holes for the hosts. , the upper set, and the 777 that is further up, is a teacher who follows the textbook-style teaching, and any one of them is more conducive to your task than me."
Chen You brows lightly, "You are above me."
Si Sisi frowned, "What's the reason?"
Chen swallowed the food in his mouth again, "I am retiring, and you are the one sitting in that position, so you need to familiarize yourself with the assessment procedures in advance."
Si Sisi sneered, not sure if he disdained that position, or he hated the person opposite.
Chen said again, "Pay attention to your attitude."
Si Sisi smiled, "I still like you who are mentally retarded."
Chen You still had that lukewarm attitude, "I don't want to hear it from you again."
Si Sisi looked at that face, his face was pale and blue, and he could see that he was a poor guy with abnormal life and no one to take care of him.
Chen narrowed his eyes again, "I heard you like bonuses very much?"
Si Sisi, "..."
He had no appetite at all, he leaned back in the chair, folded his hands in front of his chest, "Can I ask you a question?"
Chen said again, "Ask."
Si Sisi organized his words, and asked after a while, "Strict existence was set by you, so what will happen to him when you come back now? Do you really not care about things in the virtual world?"
Chen added, "These are two issues."
"Given your failure to follow the rules, the opportunity to answer one of your questions is void."
Si Sisi's face was livid, this Chen became his boss again, and he still wanted to hit him.
Not long after contacting him, Si Sisi realized that he was wrong. Although a person has changed a lot, and now he has become difficult to figure out, and is no longer a mentally handicapped person who can be easily deceived, but the essence is the same.
For example, owe a beating.
Si Sisi went to look again, and he found more than this. This person deliberately changed all aspects of himself during the assessment, and the appearance of the last world and the first world remained the same.
It explained that he was extremely satisfied with his face, which was very similar to that virtual Chen You.
Chen You suddenly raised his eyelids, his eyes were unfathomable.
Si Sisi's back went cold inexplicably, and he had the illusion that his internal organs were being scanned, as if all the things in his heart had been turned out, spread out on the table, and the other party pushed aside to look.
Chen asked again, "Did you bring the entry manual?"
Si Sisi didn't understand, so he said, "Throw it away long ago, besides, who has nothing to do with that stuff, isn't he a coward?"
Chen said again, "Unfortunately, I brought it."
Si Sisi, "..."
He coughed, his face was slightly hot, and he was a little embarrassed. He hoped that the other party would not bear the grudge against the second guy. The bonus is really important to him.
Chen also said, "I hold a grudge."
Being guessed on the spot, Si Sisi's eyes twitched, there was nothing to talk about.
Speaking of which, when he was working before, he often called the other party mentally retarded, idiot, please pray, won't he also save the data one by one
Chen called up the manual again, "Article 56 of the manual, during the tenure in the system, it is forbidden to have feelings for any host, and office romances are not allowed. Once discovered, they will be fired immediately and banned from entering the central network for life."
Si Sisi said, "Hmm, what's going on with 000 and 111? They're married."
Chen You's answer was very realistic, "It depends on the person."
Si Sisi was powerless to refute.
"They are elders and have privileges, but you don't." Chen You said a word very bluntly, "So you can't like me."
In an instant, the air flow on the table condensed.
"I like you?"
Si Sisi heheed twice, as if hearing a big joke, and forgot to restrain himself in front of his boss, "You have to have a limit to your narcissism."
Chen You said unhurriedly, "I've checked. During my assessment, when you came into contact with me later, the fluctuations in heartbeat, breathing, body temperature, frequency of swallowing, and brain waves are all abnormal. Reached the value of love for the first time."
Si Sisi's face turned blue and red.
In front of Wu Wuwu, he could still pretend as if nothing had happened, calm and unhurried, but with this person, two or three words would make him restless and no longer calm.
Chen put down the knife and fork again, and wiped his mouth with a paper towel, "Emotions are waste products, you should stick to this point of view, don't lose the big because of small things."
Hearing this, Si Sisi raised his head abruptly, his eyes became strange, "Is this also your own idea?"
Chen reminded again, "You have missed the opportunity to ask questions."
After a long silence, Si Sisi smiled, his three-dimensional facial features looked very deep and charming, "Although you are my boss now, you have no right to interfere in my private affairs."
Chen You's brows twitched, and his bloodless lips drew an arc, "What is liking? If you like it, what can it bring to life, what will it change? The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, or do the disadvantages outweigh the advantages?"
Si Sisi found that the other party was not waiting for his answer, but seemed to be talking to himself, so he didn't make a sound, just stared at the past.
People are still that little guy, one is gray and rainy, and the other is scorching sun.
Si Sisi couldn't help thinking, one day in the future, when he takes over the position, what assessment tasks will he set for himself in order to complete the three major targets...
The meal started off abruptly, and so did it end.
Chen answered another call and left, not forgetting to bring his smart little yellow dog with him.
Si Sisi sat on the chair and watched the young man walking on the street through the glass. He was tall and thin, with a thin figure. There were men and women passing by him. No one would have thought that his brain was filled with the operation data of this world.
In the next few days, Si Sisi went for a stroll along the river, but he never saw Chen You again. Dabai's hair was disheveled by the cold wind, and his nose was dragged out.
"Dabai, he didn't show up because he knew I would come, did he?"
The big white dog howled in the wind, with tears in his eyes, not because he felt sorry for his master, but because he was blown by the wind.
Si Sisi led the big white dog back and walked back, looking around while walking, he suddenly laughed, "I'm telling you, it's really not me, it's someone else."
People and things in the virtual world are a bunch of data. If you want to disappear, delete the corresponding data. If you regret it, just restore it. You can also return the data progress bar. The hand that operates is the same as the hand of God. Not much difference.
The power of these people is very large, but also very small. There is no such thing as changing the data, let alone intentional, even if it is a mistake.
The new one should be able to do it. He has a higher position and more authority than them.
Si Sisi put one hand in his pocket, the timeline of the virtual world is different from the real world, ten days here is ten minutes over there, before Chen came back, he was still watching, knowing what the other person's current body is state.
that stern...
Si Sisi laughed, Chen You, what will you do
Chen You's life was monotonous and boring day after day. He was used to it at first, because he had no father and no mother, and was single.
So Chen went to the housing design company of Central Network to ask a designer to remodel the house. There was only one request, and it was not empty.
The designer quickly proposed a plan, which was rejected by Chen You, and it was still not possible to change it.
It has been revised five or six times in a row, and the designer's mouth is bubbling. He tidied up the plan on the table. This client is a rich owner who can live here, and his status is not ordinary. Maybe he is an official. Yes, he dare not offend.
"Mr. Chen, do you have any ideas? You can say it, I will record it, and go back and discuss it with my team."
After the designer finished speaking, he didn't hear a response, so he looked up and swallowed.
The young man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. He leaned on the sofa and flipped through interior design magazines. His posture was lazy and casual. There were no socks on his feet, and he lay on the sofa. The whiteness was flawless.
The halo of the desk lamp was pale, casting down from the top of the young man's head, illuminating his black hair with a layer of warm luster, and the rare light falling on his face and body, the warmth was thinned and a little cold.
The designer finally understood what the young man's request was for.
He thought to himself, the house is so big, the lighting is good, the scenery is beautiful, and the location is beyond the dreams of most people. Living alone, it is still impossible to live in a warm and lively atmosphere.
After waiting for a while, still not waiting for a reply, the designer said, "Mr. Chen, then I will..."
His voice was interrupted by the sound of magazines falling on the coffee table.
"Hold on."
Chen got up again and left barefoot. When he came back, he had an extra piece of paper in his hand, "Follow this."
The designer took the paper and found that it was a design drawing. It was very simple. Some areas were just circled and replaced with names. Even so, it was much better than mindless revisions.
"Mr. Chen, we will give you a complete design plan as soon as possible, so we won't bother you anymore."
Chen continued to lie back on the sofa. He put his hands behind his head as a pillow, raised his feet resting on the wooden floor, paused in mid-air, and then put them on the other side of the sofa, stretching out his legs.
"This position is really more comfortable."
Chen You muttered to himself, he took the magazine and covered his face, blocking the glare of the overhead light.
Falling into the dark, the consciousness will be easily blurred. Chen You gradually fell asleep. He usually does not work and has no fun. He almost always sleeps. From dark to dawn, from dawn to dark, he sleeps for a long time every time.
This time, Chen You woke up after not sleeping for a long time, because of a dream.
He sat up, staring at a void, a little confused, fleeting.
At night, Chen entered the virtual space again. The office is no longer an elegant and ancient lake pavilion, but a labyrinth-like building, dark and dead, and the large area of darkness will affect the vision to a certain extent.
There are four pillars in the office, with a lantern hanging on each, which looks particularly abrupt, like an imperial city buried underground for hundreds of years, full of eerie feeling.
Chen closed his eyes again and started working.
Not long after he took office, he had to be familiar with all the jurisdictions of the main system, and he had to sort out the trivial matters that his predecessor had not completed.
The ex left suddenly, some things stopped halfway through, and it was too late to finish.
Chen You propped his head up. There were nearly twenty systems under his hands, and the detailed information of each person was in his place. He could look through them at will, which was not interesting.
[Master, Xiaolu thinks you are unhappy.]
"yes?"
Chen wanted something to drink again. He typed the keyboard to write data, and a cup of taro milk tea appeared out of thin air on the table, with lingering heat and fragrance.
[Wow, what is this? It smells so good!]
Chen took a sip of the milk tea again. He frowned sweetly, deleted the data, restored it after a few seconds, and continued to drink.
[Master, Xiaolu remembers that you are a nostalgic person and won't try new things.]Chen You pursed his lips, "Drink a few more sips, it's not so bad."
[Did the master taste this thing in the mission world of the assessment?]Chen directly silenced his seal.
[…]
First came taro milk tea, then cola, chicken wings, dorayaki, ham sausage, chicken feet, stinky tofu, strange things appeared one after another in the office, Xiaolu was not surprised, and started chatting with its owner, asking about food It tastes sweet or spicy, delicious or not.
Sometimes, Xiaolu couldn't help but mention the world of the assessment, but of course, she was still silenced in the end.
Chen You's working hours are indeterminate, he goes into the virtual space when he's busy, and stays in the real world when he's not busy. He seldom gets busy, and most of the time he's free. His work is much easier now than before.
There is no need for a host with a variety of personalities, just those systems and the maintenance of the main program.
When he was free, Chen You felt bored, but he had no friends, he went out and came back soon, the noise in the street made him irritable, repulsive, and resistant.
One afternoon, Chen You fell asleep on the bed, woke up under the bed, his pants were wet, and he just lay on the floor with a rather dumbfounding and helpless expression.
It's a pity that the former staff member of the main system died. The other party was very mysterious during his lifetime, and Chen couldn't see him. Otherwise, he would have to ask how to deal with the sequelae of completing the assessment.
Putting on clean clothes, Chen went to the studio again and entered the virtual space, instead of going to the office, the direction was the main program domain.
Guard staff asked for credentials.
Chen raised the sign on his neck again, and the staff's attitude changed, and they immediately led him in with their backs bowed.
The main program network does not have a table, a chair, a brick or a tile, or even a speck of dust. There are countless light spots, and each light spot is a virtual world, which cannot be counted by the naked eye unless you look at the statistics.
Chen pressed his fingerprint again, and all the dots of light began to flicker. In the large area on the right, there was a dot of light floating quietly.
All of a sudden, that spot of light overwhelmed the surrounding spots of light and was instantly magnified. Originally, it was just a point, but now it became a virtual world, and everything became clear.
At this moment, the main program issued a prompt: it was created by you, and it is up to you to decide whether to delete it or keep it.
Chen You remained silent. He saw that the world was at night, the bedroom was lit, the bed was covered with a gray-blue quilt, and there was a big teddy bear on the bedside, with several pink dolls beside it.
The bathroom door opened, and a tall man came out. A black-haired young man was lying in his arms. His eyes were closed and his arms were hanging down, as if he was asleep.
The man freed his hands to lift the quilt and gently put the young man on it. He sat in front of the bed, gently stroking the young man's face, and said in a hoarse voice, "wife..."
Chen You's eyes flickered. He watched the man kiss the young man's hair and eyebrows. When the man's lips fell on the mole at the corner of the young man's eyes, he seemed to feel a softness in the same position.
The next moment, Chen You's eyes caught a tear, which dripped from the man's eyes and hit the young man's face. He touched his face unconsciously, and his palm was wet.
It was he himself who cried.
Swallowing a sigh, Chen closed his eyes again, "I choose to keep it."
The main program issued a warning: it already has autonomous consciousness and is an independent individual. When you created it, you entered your consciousness imprint. Now it can cause fatal damage to you. You can no longer control it. Are you sure you want to keep it
Chen said again, "Sure."
[Master, where are you going?]
"Go pick someone up."
The author has something to say:
I never said it was open-ended, 1V1he spread, the copywriting was written, so my fast travel is a series of articles, the system is all colleagues, the setting of that world plane is in my earlier fast travel It has already appeared, so it has been continued and will not be changed. They will enter the virtual space to work, manage multiple hosts, and get commissions based on performance.
And each host is selected from a low-level planet, and the data fluctuations created by those people in the process of doing tasks will pass through the main program domain and be converted into energy to maintain that world.
All I have is that the subject of this article is not a real human being.
I'm afraid there are some friends who don't understand, so I'll say it again. Yuzu didn't change from the host to the system because he completed the task. He was originally a staff member of the system. He set ten virtual tasks for himself in order to participate in the assessment. In the end, everything is completed, breaking through the self, and being promoted to the main system, which means a promotion and a salary increase.
Almost everything that needs to be explained has been explained, and there will be a little bit of extras in the back, it should be just sprinkle dog food, if you don’t like dog food, you can stop here.
Thank you for your support all the way, and all the little friends who accompanied Yuzu here, bow down.
