[1bitHeart] The closed world of you and me

"That's it. By the way, I don't mind a little bit. Miss Le thinks that Brother Men knows what things are so nervous?"

The topic has come to an end, and before leaving, Nanessi couldn't help asking curiously even though she knew that she might not be answered.

"Well, there are all kinds of things, um, think about it, isn't the information monitored by the management program very extensive? The door-kun is also the developer who personally created such a complicated program, and now In the management room, I work every day to manage those things, so maybe I will see some kind of private information---like this, anyway, you understand, Nanessi-kun."

Obviously not wanting to answer, Le spoke in a very vague and evasive way, showing him an obviously perfunctory smile, and blinking a single eye pretending to be cute.

"This and that... I understand! Then I'll go first, and we'll talk later when I have time!"

Listening to Le's words, Nanessi also naturally had various imaginations, and felt that if it was the ones he thought of, it's better not to ask further, so he decisively ended the topic and waved goodbye.

Next, I went to Feng Leishen to have lunch as scheduled, introduced myself smoothly, and got to know each other again. Nainaxi went to Tower [-] to find the door as scheduled, but he forgot that the management room of Tower [-] is not just a visit. Entered──After all, the information managed by the 'management program' is too much and extensive, and even the information that can be classified as 'confidential' is also stored in it, and it also involves the brainwave safety of the people under management. Any problem will have very serious consequences, so there are strict management and procedures for access.

Since many things were achieved through cheating when the door returned to the past, it was once bold enough to put the hackers it found in the management room casually, so Nanessi guessed that at present, the door should be He is in charge of the highest and almost all authority of the management room—maybe even the upper management that he occasionally talks about is just a shield when problems occur. The so-called upper management probably has no ability to affect the management procedures and the management room. , and it is not clear what the door actually did in the management room.

It's just that no matter how powerful the door is in the management room, even if he has a similar highest authority in the future, it is not the power in Naixi's hands now, so he only realized it later when he was blocked from the door at the highest level When she remembered this, Nanessi went back to the first floor and asked the counter to help inform her.

"Hello, I'm Nanessi, how about you, sister?"

Nanessi greeted him first as usual, and asked his name again by pretending not to know each other again. Xi also used the expressionless style of honorifics for work as he remembered. A calm answer:

"I'm Xi, who is working as a tour guide here in Tower [-]. Do you need any help?"

"I have something to ask my cousin, Brother Men, and I would like to ask Miss Xi to inform me!"

Since this is looking for Xi, it is not just to introduce each other and pave the way for making friends in the future. I also know that Xi can be said to be ruthless at work and hates to disturb her with things other than work, so Naixi readily asked her to find her. He spoke out his purpose without saying any unnecessary words that might cause Xi's displeasure.

"Men... you mean, Mr. Men, the chief person in charge of the 'management program' management office at the top of Tower [-]? Although saying this is against my identity, if you are really that person's cousin , Wouldn’t it be faster to contact the other party directly using a private communication channel like BitPhone? Or, you’re just pretending to be a person, and you don’t have that person’s private contact information?”

Hearing what Nanaixi said, Xi frowned slightly, and did not immediately agree, but directly questioned her.

Wow, to be interrogated. Sure enough, the management procedure is a very big thing in the eyes of others.

Nanessi never thought of visiting him at work when the door was still there, and after the door is gone, as far as his future identity is concerned, he will not be interrogated for being close to the computer room where the management program is installed. Knowing that he would be interrogated if he entered the management room, he couldn't help thinking with emotion.

While thinking about it, Nanessi had nothing to hide, so she answered directly:

"It's okay, but Brother Men is very focused when he is concentrating on his work. Even if he makes contact, he may not notice the message immediately. If he is unlucky, he may not notice until he is about to leave the management room after work. Then I don’t know how long it will take, so I just want to say that to be on the safe side, it’s better for someone to notify him.”

Nanessi did not exaggerate or lie. No matter which time and space he is in, he is a person who is completely unaware of the outside world once he is fully committed to anything. When he was a child, he used to secretly play games in class, so focused that even the teacher stood behind him I didn’t notice that when I get older, once I enter into a state of ecstasy when researching something or writing a program, it is easy to ignore the real situation. If I really use the BitPhone to contact the door like Xi, even if I call directly, he may not be able to Notice it, and even if you notice it, you won't be very happy when your work flow is interrupted.

Especially the current door is the type who is strict with himself. Even if he is not angry with other people who bother him, and knows that Nanessi came to disturb him on a whim, the time to lift the ban on pizza orders may be delayed again.But even if Nanessi has the ability to analyze and lift the restrictions, but in order not to expose himself to the door so early, it is also a matter from the future, so he can only continue to endure it honestly.

Xi was noncommittal to Nana's words, and just contacted her boss, and then her boss came and made a series of questions and inspections for Nana, and finally confirmed that Nana was the cousin of the door──thanks to the door When fabricating his identity, he not only used his special ability to modify the memories of people around him, but also tampered with the government's household registration information just in case.When the other party asked people to investigate the government's household registration information, Naixi was still sweating, fearing that the gates were sparse and careless, and this point was accidentally missed. After checking, people found that there was no one named Fengsakamen in July [-]th. cousin, and then drive him away as a liar or arrest him in the police station, or cause more serious problems──, and then finally tell the management office about his want to find the door.

Wow, it's really a lot of work... If I had known, I would have told Brother Men first as Miss Xi said, even if the message or phone call was not noticed, it would be better than tossing around like this.

Even Nanessi, who was tired and paralyzed on the chair after more than two hours of examination that he felt that his remaining physical strength was exhausted, regretted his rash behavior a little bit.

"...Naisi, is it really you? Why did you come here to look for me all of a sudden? Did something happen at home?"

Originally, Naixi thought that after the communication, he would tell him the answer to the door to let him go up or go home quickly, but he didn't expect the door to come down by himself. Seeing Naixi who was seriously introspecting himself, he froze for a moment, as if it was true. It was a surprise, as he walked over a little faster, he asked with a surprised expression mixed with a little worry.

"Ahaha, it's nothing. It's just that today, on a whim, I planned to have lunch outside. After eating, I bought some snacks. I just wanted to bring some snacks to visit Brother Men."

I also felt that it would be very embarrassing to say this reason, Nanaixi tried to make herself laugh innocently and stupidly, hoping to get past it, and raised her hand with all kinds of old-fashioned snacks bought from the snack shop in Yuhizaka plastic bag to show that I am not talking nonsense.

"──That's all?"

Hearing Nanessi's reason, the door's expression seemed a little blank, then took a deep breath, restrained the expression on his face for a few seconds, rubbed his forehead with his fingertips expressionlessly, and squeezed out With a smile that was too perfect but made the hair stand on end, he said in a very gentle tone:

"...I see, you go home first, let's talk later?"

Uh wow!Absolutely mad!My pizza──! !

Seeing the shiny smile on the door that seemed to almost paste glitter dots on the background, Naixi knew that she couldn't get along with it when her scalp tingled. to light and hope.

"Men, Brother Men, I spent more than two hours here looking for you, are you going to drive me back like this?"

Even though he knew that the hope was slim, Nanessi still tried to struggle for a while, talking pitifully, staring at the door with wide eyes, trying to arouse a little sympathy from the door.

Hearing Nanessi's words, Men touched his chin in a thoughtful manner, but the words he said did not appear to soften at all:

"Well—that's right, it took so long, it's not good to let you go back like that. Just leave the snacks you brought here and go home. Remember to reflect on yourself when you get home."

The door lightly patted Nanessi on the head, and his tone was very kind, but Nanessi is not a fool, even if he is not very good at reading people's faces, he can still see the value of other people's emotions──especially the information about this aspect is not When she didn't specifically cover up Nanessi's ability to detect──, Nanessi, who knew that she was powerless, had no choice but to go back honestly, and didn't dare to continue to make people angry.

■

When Nanaixi was sent back, he also returned to the door of the management room, but he couldn't continue to concentrate on his work no matter what.

When he tried to concentrate but was distracted a few times in a row, he simply left the door alone—anyway, what he constructed this time is the final version of the management program eight years later, and all functions are already very stable. The parameters that need to be set, even if they are left alone for a while, there will not be too much trouble.Otherwise, if it was the original version, and now that the management room is supported by him alone, he may have to work here all day without sleep and rest, and he will not be able to stay busy.

It just so happens that there is no urgent matter that needs to be done by operating the management program, and there is no need to force himself to continue working, so he sighed softly, leaned back on the chair, and took out the plastic bag that Nanessy left just now. He took out a snack and opened it, then casually glanced at the contents.

Huh?Candied fruit?

At first, I thought that the so-called snacks of Nanessi were potato chips or popcorn, which he used to buy, but when I saw the back door clearly, I was a little puzzled for a moment, "Why is it candied fruit?" ’, I looked at the plastic bag again, and there were cheap snacks full of nostalgia. They were not like the snacks that Nainaxi usually bought, but I suddenly changed to a snack with a different flavor on my whim. It's not uncommon, Men temporarily put aside the doubts, threw the unpacked candied fruit into his mouth, chewed it absent-mindedly, and immersed himself in his own thoughts.

Needless to say, what Men thought was, of course, was Nanessi who had just made a surprise visit.

Although the younger brother who is cute but thoughtless suddenly came to see his elder brother, it is not a strange thing, although it is abrupt, but the door knew that if it was Nanaisi who had made up his mind to be a squatting at home, it would be fine. Now that Naixi has something to play and eat at home, order takeout if you don’t eat, sleep in if you don’t play, or find something for yourself, Naixi can stay at home forever, The point of perfectly interpreting the meaning of the word 'staying at home' is not like some people who stay at home for a long time will feel bored and want to run outside all day, so when they come here suddenly, the door feels a bit weird.

It wasn't that Nanaishi was not allowed to go out, but this was the first time he had gone out in months, right?He obviously didn't show any particular desire to go outside before, but now he suddenly said it without saying a word. There should be some reason... But, is there something wrong?

While thinking about the performance of the previous days, except for some strange speeches that Le commented as "Second Two" after the fever recovered, Men didn't think there was anything abnormal about Nainaxi. Occasionally, he thought of watching the surveillance screen, the strangest thing The picture is probably Naixi using the TV to connect to the somatosensory dancing game, bouncing around in the living room and doing some funny moves, plus the pile of things that Naixi bought before, it seems that there is no way to clear all the games in a short time It seems that now is not the time when Nanessi will have nothing to pass the time at home and will start to want to go out.

Um?But when it comes to the pile of games that Nanessi bought, I seem to have forgotten something related to this... Ah!Could it be──

Thinking of this, the door suddenly felt like something flashed through his mind. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly remembered that if Naixi hadn't been sick and he hadn't been sick, he originally planned to talk to Naixi about his spending money. problem.

Could it be that Nanaixi really accidentally spent all the money, and when he came to his senses, he realized that he was almost out of food, so he ran out of the house to tell me about it?

Thinking of this matter, Men immediately felt that he had found an answer with a very high probability. On the other hand, this was also a headache. Men also felt that instead of guessing for a long time and not knowing the result, it is better to directly It’s quicker to ask—anyway, the past self was a pretty direct person, and it’s more realistic to talk about things directly than to use various methods to reason out of thin air.

Now that the decision has been made, the door temporarily feels at ease, and slowly savors the taste of candied fruit that has been in his mouth for a long time—probably because he doesn't eat it often, or it may be that this kind of dessert is like this, there is always a feeling of "this Really nostalgic taste' feeling arises spontaneously.

Well, speaking of it, the dim sum brought by Nanaixi this time are all cheap old-fashioned dim sum.

After eating the candied fruit, he took out another kind of snack from the bag and looked at the price note on it. Thinking of this, he became more and more sure that Nanaixi was short of money, so he decided to give up his previous favorite. Fried snacks, only to buy relatively cheap snacks.

Well, this taste also feels very nostalgic.

Now that they were all taken out, the door was opened and eaten. After simply commenting, he had no disturbing emotions after making a decision, and went back to work, and successfully completed what he wanted to complete within the scheduled time. schedule.
