StarTie Simulation: Aren’t you NPCs?

As the saying goes, "the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it." Since it was because of some subconscious behavior of Wu Xuan that such an atmosphere was wavering between Silver Wolf and him, then as the "culprit"... he naturally needed to step forward to break this deadlock.

Wu Xuan looked at the girl in front of him with a slightly red face, coughed lightly, then touched his face a little embarrassedly and said softly: "Um... Silver Wolf, I'm really sorry, I was a little... abrupt just now."

Perhaps because Wu Xuan spoke first and broke the silent and awkward atmosphere, Silver Wolf did not say anything, but still nodded slightly, as if he accepted Wu Xuan's apology, which did not seem like an apology.

However...this sentence and the nod of agreement did not make any substantial change to the strange atmosphere, and those who should remain silent remained silent.

After a long silence, Wu Xuan finally decided to get his work done first. He slowly stood up, put away the tableware in front of him, put it under the faucet and began to clean it.

But Wu Xuan didn't know that his and Silver Wolf's every move had already been seen clearly by certain guys.

Somewhere in the "real" sea of ​​stars, a man wearing a red laughing mask was looking at the scene in front of him boredly. The figures of Wu Xuan and Silver Wolf were in that scene.

After the man laughed dryly twice, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Hahahaha, "Central Experimental Subject"... let me add fuel to the fire for you? Hahahaha~"

As He spoke, the pair of white-gloved hands kept drawing something on the screen in front of him, and stopped after a moment. The boredom in his original state disappeared instantly, and was replaced by excitement like a child seeing his favorite toy?

“Hahahahahaha, I’m really looking forward to the expression on your face when you see this thing ~ It must be so funny, ahahahahaha~”

------

Just when Wu Xuan was washing dishes, a strange light curtain suddenly appeared in front of him, and a task suddenly popped up on the light curtain.

After reading the task description and requirements, Wu Xuan took a deep breath, resisted the urge to curse, and then sighed slowly, as if all the dirty words he had prepared were expelled with this breath of foul air. Then, as if he had made up some kind of decision, he turned off the light curtain in front of him.

Silver Wolf was stunned for a moment, then carefully placed the four game cartridges on the sofa where he slept last night, and then put away the folding table in front of him.

At this moment, in the Silver Wolf's light screen, the perspective that originally belonged to "herself" in the game was suddenly pulled away, and all the scenes in the small container were visible to her.

She saw herself and Wu Xuan busy with their own things, one was cleaning up the dishes after the meal, and the other was cleaning the table as if he was cleaning a battlefield.

Silver Wolf had watched a lot of TV dramas and movies before to kill time, and this scene... to be honest, if you put aside the premise that this is a game, this scene seems to be no different from the old couples living together in those TV dramas and movies... right?

Although Silver Wolf wanted to say something to express her current mood, she found that she couldn't utter a word.

After all, the current situation...her mood is really complicated.

The girl looked out the window at the endless sea of ​​stars and the "Black Tower Space Station" in the distance, and whispered, "Even if it's the Black Tower... it's impossible to have this kind of experience, right? I'm watching "myself" fall in love with another person on the screen."

Silver Wolf was stunned for a moment when he said this, then he whispered, "Hmm? Wait, does this mean that I am better than Black Tower in some way?"

But then he shook his head and said firmly: "No, I am stronger than Black Tower!"

Actually, for Silver Wolf, this feeling was somewhat... strange? A genius like her was very aware of her own emotional fluctuations. She could clearly feel that... ever since she entered the combat mode that time, her feelings for Wu Xuan seemed to be disturbed by something.

Maybe it's because of... those favorability issues? But this is just a game, right?

Silver Wolf was a little confused. She always felt that there was some lack of basic logic, but she had no idea what went wrong.

She shook her head helplessly. She thought that maybe things had piled up recently, and there were too many things for her to think about, which caused some problems in her state.

"Forget it... There's plenty of time to think about these things." Silver Wolf said in a low voice, then turned his chair and continued to look at the light screen in front of him, watching the next story between "himself" and Wu Xuan.

[I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or something, but the time you spend cleaning the table is almost the same as the time Wu Xuan spends washing the dishes. This also leads to... you can only sit on the sofa, silent in this awkward atmosphere.]

[After about three or four minutes, Wu Xuan finally took a deep breath, then looked up at you. His eyes, as deep as the night, looked at you apologetically, and then said:]

"Silver Wolf... I'm really sorry for what I did just now. It was really a subconscious action, because..." At this point, Wu Xuan's tone paused, and then his cheeks turned slightly red, and he added in a low voice: "Because you were really cute just now..."

[After hearing Wu Xuan praise you for being cute, you decide:]

【1.Thank you for the compliment~】

[2. (Silence)]

【3. Player independent input】

Silver Wolf looked at the options that popped up and silently chose option three. She also had a rough solution in her mind.

Emotionally speaking... she didn't dare to respond to Wu Xuan, because this was really... sudden? As if it was arranged, but rationally speaking... now she just had to remain silent, show a slightly shy expression, and then change the subject, and all the problems would be solved.

"Yeah~ let's do it." Silver Wolf said as his fingers kept tapping on the virtual keyboard, conveying his thoughts to "himself" in the game through words. This way... maybe he would have a little sense of participation?

After entering his own command, Silver Wolf looked at the screen in front of him with interest. Looking at the handsome boy, he sighed softly and said:

"Then again...does anyone really exist in real life who has high emotional intelligence, is calm in the face of difficulties, is good at speaking and cooking, and can even code and say sweet words?"

[Hearing Wu Xuan's words, the temperature on your cheeks rose noticeably. After a moment of silence, you said to the boy in front of you:]

"Should we...go to A and K?"

How could Wu Xuan not understand the meaning of Silver Wolf's words? It was obvious that she heard it, and then she laughed and changed the subject, not letting this weird atmosphere and topic continue to spread.

Actually, he didn't want to say this, but...

Wu Xuan looked at the virtual screen in front of him, which displayed a string of characters:

【Breaking news: "Heating up" has been completed】

[Description: Saying the key words "You were really cute just now" to the character Silver Wolf will complete the event.]

[Reward: Two-way Favorability +10]
