When a passerby becomes a princess

Lin Qiu sat on the bed, staring blankly at the red candle beside the bed through the red veil of the hijab.

Before that, he had another name that everyone knew --- Passerby A, and his identity was an npc in the game.

In the game that was once all the rage, Pedestrian A was just a useless background NPC standing on the side of the road. Later, a programmer added the function of patrolling the streets to him. Later, the map was expanded, and the scope of Pedestrian A’s wandering ranged from the main The city expanded to the entire map.

Every time the game is upgraded, Passerby A will also add some functions accordingly, from ordinary dialogue to sending letters to players, helping players to open stores to collect accounts, and so on.

Because it is a realistic martial arts game, even npcs do not have the ability to teleport, so you can often see passer-by A crossing mountains and mountains, solving various problems on the road, just to send a letter from one player to another hand.Many players will send courtship letters to their favorite people through Passerby A. It is said that the success rate is extremely high, which made Passerby A the most popular npc for a time.

It's a pity that no matter how popular the game is, one day, the number of players gradually decreases, and passer-by A starts to do nothing. He often stands on the side of the street, staring at the empty street in a daze.

Until one day, two players passed by him chatting.

"This game is getting boring," one said.

Another person said: "Anyway, it will be closed next month, and I plan to find another game..."

A gust of wind blew, and a few leaves drifted past Passerby A's feet, and Passerby A's body moved slightly.

"It will be closed next month, which means the game will end." Passerby A's voice sounded in the empty street. "All programs will be closed and data will be deleted, including...me..."

Perhaps it was because there was nothing to do for a long time, but Passerby A's built-in analysis function started running spontaneously, and he came to a conclusion in the shortest time, if he didn't leave here, he would disappear completely.

"No...can't...disappear..." Passerby A looked at his feet, and the leaves made of data floated to the end of the street and disappeared around the corner.The desire to survive is the instinct of all living things, and inexplicably, this passer-by, who is not a living body, actually has this desire.

"To... get out of here." Passer-by A started to run, he didn't know how to leave, he just ran instinctively in one scene after another.

Suddenly one day, the whole world in the game was dark, and a gigantic lightning bolt fell from the sky, smashing everything into powder, even the passer-by who was running in the wilderness was not spared.

However, not long after, passerby A heard a voice in the darkness.

"Less than half of the backup power is left."

"This thunderstorm is really powerful."

"The data is all gone, do you want to call a backup?"

"Forget it, it will be closed tomorrow anyway, and there were only three or two kittens in the game just now."

"..."

It took a long time for Passerby A to convert those sounds into data. Through analysis, it was learned that a thunderstorm smashed the host where the game was located, and he left the game inexplicably. Now he seems to be in the computer of a certain programmer. .

Before he could figure it out, someone said, "I have a virus on my computer."

"Kill it." Someone next to him said.

"I just wonder where the virus came from." The man muttered.

Passer-by A knows what a virus is, but he doesn't know that the virus in the mouth is referring to himself. He was in a daze when he suddenly felt that the surrounding space became smaller. Although it was still pitch black, he could feel a group of A group of data attempted to imprison him and kill him.

"No... can... kill..." Passerby A instinctively ran up, just like he did in the game, but this time without the constraints of the game space.

"Run, don't get caught, or you will be killed." The analysis function came to this conclusion. Driven by the survival instinct, Passerby A kept running. He only had one thought, to survive.

Human beings who have always been eager to break through the speed of light do not know that there is a group of game programs that escaped from the game company on a thunderstorm night in order to survive, and ran in the vast network world. Beyond the speed of light, at that moment, the screens of all computers connected to the network went black at the same time, and the entire network was completely paralyzed.

When passer-by A opened his eyes in a flash, he found himself in a small, constantly shaking space, surrounded by a hazy red, and various noisy sounds came from outside the space.There was no electricity, no data he was familiar with, Passerby A slowly raised his arm, the red sleeve embroidered with gold thread slipped off, and the immature and smooth little hands obviously did not belong to Passerby A.

"..." Passerby A, who had lost his analytical function and hadn't learned to "think", stared blankly at the hand, unable to move it.

Not long after, the swaying space finally stopped.

"Princess, please get off the sedan chair." Someone outside the space said loudly.

Passerby A sat there with one hand raised, without moving.

"Please get off the sedan chair, Crown Princess." After a while, the voice sounded again, but it was louder than before.

Passerby A maintained that posture without even moving his eyeballs.

"Princess, please get off the sedan chair." The voice sounded again, almost hoarse.

It's a pity that Passerby A didn't know that the word "Prince Princess" was referring to him, so he still didn't move.

At this moment, footsteps came, and an angry voice came: "Open the curtain."

"His Royal Highness, this... this is against the rules." The previous voice seemed to be blocking.

"Hey, if you don't get out of the sedan chair, it's in compliance with the rules?" The man rushed over and lifted the curtain, reached in and grabbed passerby A's raised hand and dragged him out.A small white porcelain bottle rolled down from Passerby A's robe, was kicked by his staggering footsteps, rolled into the crowd, and disappeared instantly.

Passerby A raised his head and looked at the person in front of him through a layer of red gauze.

"Lin Qiu, don't think that you are the only one who is not happy! I don't want to be married either!" The man held his wrist tightly, lowered his head and whispered in his ear.

Passer-by A looked at his wrist, and felt a strange feeling there. Although he didn't know it was pain at this time, this feeling prompted him to think for the first time after becoming a human being.

Lin Qiu?Is it my current name?

Passerby A didn't have any resistance to changing his name. Since he was an npc standing on the street, he has changed countless names, so he easily accepted his new name--Lin Qiu.

The wedding process of His Highness the Crown Prince is naturally extremely complicated. Fortunately, as one of the parties, the Crown Princess just needs to stand there most of the time. Even though Lin Qiu didn't understand anything, it went smoothly without any mistakes.

When Lin Qiu was helped into the bridal chamber by the palace servants, he sat on the wedding bed, looked at the candle flames on the thick dragon and phoenix red candles beside the bed through the red gauze covering his head, and began to be dazed again.
