flying switch

Zhong Rong saw the crystal ball mode for the first time, a layer of occasionally reflective electronic membrane protruded from the tip of the lucky cat's nose, when those fast gangs that attracted attention fired at it, it devoured the opponent's firepower like a black hole, and then "poof" spat back.

To be honest, there was a sense of joy, like eating melon seeds and spitting out the skin of melon seeds. Zhong Rong was quite happy to watch it with a dazed look on the other side.

"Is it awesome?" Alai winked at him, "Moonmoon strengthened."

"So it belonged to a witch?" Zhong Rong guessed.

"That's right, she helped a lot this time," Alai sighed, "She said she was entrusted by others—or Wu Ge, you are amazing, you can ask that kind of great god. Do you know who she is? She seems to be Kong..."

"Wait," Zhong Rong frowned, "I didn't ask her."

Alai was stunned: "...is that Dionysus?"

"It's not him, we've been together all this time, even if we were separated for a while, he didn't have time to let the witch help Rumeng before she was attacked." Zhong Rong said firmly.

Alai's eyes showed horror: "Who asked her for help then?"

"You just said she was Kong..." Zhong Rong couldn't remember her full name.

"Kong Shuwei, one of the founders of Feishu, the one with Zuo Xi," Alai quickly answered, "That's right, it's her. Moon tested it, and she didn't deny that her surname is Kong. But I don't know if it's true. is her."

"She asked me for a watch," Zhong Rong said, "The one I asked Moon to check, did she find anything?"

"Oh yes, I haven't had time to tell you," Alai scratched his forehead, "that watch was taken away by Z, she said it was the same as her mother's favorite watch, and there might be some mechanism hidden in it, Moon let her take away the research, after all, if Z is familiar with the operation method and can activate the switch, it will be much more useful than the scanning inspection that she can't figure out."

Zhong Rong nodded and accepted the statement: "I have encountered it a few times before. Z has seen several things related to her mother in the game."

"Her mother may be an old player?" Alai guessed, "Leave some traces of her own existence in the game for her daughter. It would be great if my mother could give me some of her out-of-print equipment. Her old man is too old now." Playing games is not good for your health, and you dance square dances downstairs all day long, and you don’t give me anything like this, I wonder if I’m my own..."

Zhong Rong suddenly felt that something was wrong, he frowned and carefully recalled the conversation just now, trying to find out what was wrong.

When Alai talked about reality from the game, there was no tendency to stop. Zhong Rong listened to him talking about the fact that he was scolded for biting his mother's gold ring when he was a child in reality, and suddenly reacted - Z said several times that the game and There are realistic short stories about things related to mothers. In this game, few players will make props that are related to themselves in reality and put them aside everywhere, just like easter eggs, waiting for people to find them.Moreover, Z found these things just by chance, and didn't take them seriously. She didn't pay much attention to the props that overlapped with the anonymous mission and gave them to Zhong Rong. Why did she suddenly care about this watch this time, and said it There may be an agency?

Did someone tell her about the watch and change her mind?Then this person must also know about the easter eggs and help Z silently, just like the anonymous person who gave her rubies regardless of whether Z wanted it or not, and sent missions to find things related to Z's mother.

Zhong Rong took out the task scroll at the bottom of the box, the task of finding the anonymous person that he had not been able to complete.

Who else wants those easter eggs and helps Z as much as Anonymous?

"Did Z meet you in Rumeng?" Zhong Rong asked.

Alai's thoughts were suddenly pulled back from reality, and he was stunned for a moment: "...No, it's in the memory bar."

"Did you tell her before that the stronghold was changed to a memory bar?"

"No..." Alai Yika came to his senses, "Hey, that's not right, we didn't have time to tell Z about the change, and Moon couldn't contact her and the members of the retreat team for a long time before the rendezvous, how did she know to come to remember? Meeting at the bar?"

It turned out to be the case.

Zhong Rong understood, looked at the scroll in his hand, and felt relieved as if he had solved a big mystery: "Z is the one who asked the witch for help."

A witch is an anonymous person.

Now many things can be explained, and the identities of the witch and Z are also revealed.

Alai was puzzled: "Why did the witch help Z? What's so special about Z, maybe Kong Shuwei's witch helped her?"

Zhong Rong was helpless: "I put together that watch on the competition map. In the special map where the treasure was opened for the first time, how could there be props left by ordinary old players?"

Alai's eyes gradually turned into surprise: "You mean, her mother is not an ordinary old player, but... a map creator?"

"Only the author can leave easter eggs in the original work." Zhong Rong said.

Alai was stunned: "...Mom."

Zhong Rong slumped his shoulders, his heart was both empty and full, and he was not very excited: "Today, many people are on the verge of falling off the horse."

He doesn't want to pursue the obvious, and it's good to leave the truth there. The happiness index of the ignorant is high, so he just pretends he doesn't know anything.

"Yeah, we have to see each other later," Alai became lively again, "What do you look like? How tall are you? Are you fat? What kind of snacks do you like to eat? Are there any taboos? I'll bring you some later. How many packs!"

Zhong Rong couldn't help being smashed by his broken mouth, so he smiled and pushed him: "Be respectful to the enemy, it's a war, you and here want to eat."

"The crystal ball mode is awesome," Alai laughed, and simply lay down on the chair, sticking out his tongue at the enemy who stopped attacking, "It's useless to surround the inner city, wait until I find yours." The cracking method, you just wait to die, God of Dionysus, Brother Wu, Moon Moon and me, four of you, you are finished!"

When he spoke harshly here, Zhong Rong thought of Qian Shuichong again.He went to take a shower after eating, but he couldn't ask clearly. He was confused and let Zhong Rong breathe here and there to think about it.

No, I'm not sure if he and [-] are the same person.

It's a loss that I thought others were good before.

"What are you thinking, Brother Wu?" Alai squeezed over, "What kind of expression is this? Why do you look like a resentful woman?"

Zhong Rong gritted his teeth: "You want to fight, don't you?"

"Don't, don't, I'll just say it casually..." Alai pretended to raise his wrist, "Oh, MOONMOON sent me a signal, I'm offline, and I'm running with my goddess Hehehe, see you later!"

He fled so fast that Zhong Rong disappeared before he could say anything.Zhong Rong was helpless, looking at the crystal ball mode with 70.00% completeness, and then looking at his own people who were similarly offline, sighed, and pressed his hand on the logout button, but did not take it away.

The Swift Gang is still in the inner city, if they get the treasure right now...

Then they should have gotten it a long time ago, instead of rushing to reality in desperation and trying to blow up Qian Shuichonglian's game warehouse and others.They were devastated, probably because of Qian Shuichong, so they started hanging.

I heard from Moon that if the hanging is connected to the outside, then this may be T’s trump card. If he plays it now, he must be in a hurry. He doesn’t have to worry about the treasure for a while. Rent.

How did T get in touch with Zente?Could it be that T and Tang White are also college classmates, or that T is simply Tang White?

Zhong Rong thought of Don White's hypocrite style, and was not surprised by his guess at all, on the contrary, this guess was correct.

All right, let's just call Ma Ri away today, he will get rid of her and everyone.

Zhong Rong had no choice but to go offline. From the bright and sunny Yunshang City to the dark room, he almost thought he was blinded by T's tricks, but he realized it after two seconds. He was so stupid that he could not stop laughing while holding the game cabin.

When Qian Shuichong heard the movement, he thought something was wrong and rushed in, only to see Zhong Rong laughing foolishly in the dark room alone.

Qian Shuichong: "?"

Zhong Rong's smile gradually disappeared: "?"

To be honest, it was kind of embarrassing.Zhong Rong couldn't pretend that nothing happened, and he held his finger on the game compartment, wishing he could go back again, but it was Qian Shuichong who was understanding: "Eat some fruit?"

Zhong Rong faltered: "...um."

When he and Qian Shuichong sat down on the sofa in the hall where the power was cut off (so as not to be eavesdropped by Rente), each holding a half-drawn watermelon, his mind that had been stagnant due to embarrassment turned around again.There are many dangers in the fly and in reality, and Qian Shuichong is not clear about the matter of [-]. Why is this guy so old, and he is here alone in chaos?

Zhong Rong threw the watermelon rind and almost hit the emergency candle beside him: "Are you a [-]?"

Qian Shuichong didn't seem to expect him to be so direct, his pupils fluttered rarely, and his chewing watermelon slowed down.

Zhong Rong really didn't want to wait, so he just rushed to Qian Shuichong, fixed his face directly to prevent him from turning around and changing the topic, and asked again: "Are you [-]?"

Qian Shuichong didn't dodge, but raised his head slightly with his chin pinched.He swallowed the mouthful of watermelon, his eyes cautious: "Well, I am [-]."

"You already knew that Wuzhong was me, right?" Zhong Rong's tone subconsciously increased, "You saw me in the illusion, and my mother...why didn't you tell me?"

Qian Shuichong's eyes visibly panicked: "I..."

"You know it's me," Zhong Rong didn't wait for him to speak, "but if you don't tell me, tell me that you are a hunter and know about Rumeng. What are you doing? Give me puzzles?"

He still had a lot of questions to ask, Qian Shuichong admitted that he seemed to have just passed the numbness period and had a real sense of the [-] incident, and those questions and mixed emotions gradually rolled out from the bottom of his heart.

Qian Shuichong should be Qian Shuichong, [-] should be [-], they should not be one person.

He has already fallen in love with [-], and he also decided early in his heart to say goodbye to Qian Shuichong one day. Now that the two have become one person, how should he deal with his first budding feelings?How should we face these two people in the game or in reality?

If Qian Shuichong had told him earlier, he would not have allowed himself to like [-], at least he would have suppressed it when he discovered the signs.It is not difficult for him to suppress his emotions. He has learned not to think about it when his mother left. Self-deception and self-repression are better than the helplessness and confusion that come at this moment.

Why didn't Qian Shuichong tell him earlier?

In the hospital, why did that doctor named Qian Ru treat him so well?

Anger gradually burned in his chest, Zhong Rong let go of Qian Shuichong's face, and stared straight at Qian Shuichong.He didn't know what his eyes looked like, but it seemed that Qian Shuichong was frightened.

He heard his own voice hoarsely asking, "Why are you and [-] alone?"

Qian Shuichong's expression changed, and his eyebrows frowned: "Why can't I be alone with [-]?"

The flame in Zhong Rong's chest grew a little bigger: "Why are you alone with him?!"

"[-] is because I let you down? Do you think I'm not worthy of being [-]?" The anger in Qian Shuichong's eyes was dimly illuminated by the candlelight, "If I hadn't concealed it, would you have walked into Yunshang City with me? No , you will run away directly, and would rather do it alone than with me."

"That's my problem?!" Zhong Rong grabbed his collar, his eyes were red, "I tell you, I never thought of leaving the team independently. There are not only you, but also Moon and Alai in the team! This team It's my other home, you are my most important person in this home! You are me..."

The air became quiet, and the flames in Qian Shuichong's eyes shot up and down, finally revealing a distressed look.He gently raised his hand to support Zhong Rong's chin, letting his tears roll down to his palm: "I'm sorry, Zhong Rong."

Zhong Rong bit his lip, feeling the tears being gently wiped away, staring stubbornly at Qian Shuichong, silently questioning why he was hiding it.

Seeing Zhong Rong's red eyes, Qian Shuichong felt pain in his heart. He sighed lightly, pushed all the plans that had made him confident, and held Zhong Rong's face in his hands, and said seriously: "To me, you are Very important person, whether it is Wu Zhong or Zhong Rong, you have given me a very special feeling. I am very scared, afraid of you rejecting me, afraid of you running away, so I hide it despicably, make plans, and wait for you to show me I'm coming forward."

Zhong Rong straightened up: "I am very active!"

"I know," Qian Shuichong quickly coaxed him, "I know. But that's just Wuzhong versus [-], isn't it? I want Zhong Rong to come to Qian Shuichong too, and I want you to embrace me all."

Zhong Rong muttered: "You think too much."

"That's right," Qian Shuichong put his arms around him and tilted his head, with the tip of his nose close to him, "You hate me?"

Zhong Rong struggled for three seconds: "...I don't hate you, you are very nice."

Qian Shuichong was a little surprised: "Very good?"

"Although it was too much at the beginning, you pinched my wrist in the elevator, but you helped me a lot, whether it was the game warehouse or the new home, it was a mess," Zhong Rong patted Qian Shuichong's wrinkled collar, " And [-] also helped me a lot in the game, so both Qian Shuichong and [-] are very good people."

"You..." Qian Shuichong narrowed his eyes, "It's really pure."

"I'm not innocent!" Zhong Rong was angry, "I'm also a person who has experienced society!"

"Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Qian Shuichong smiled, "Don't be angry with me, okay?"

"Not angry." Zhong Rong muttered again.

Qian Shuichong didn't hear clearly, and approached him again, the tip of his nose almost touching his.Zhong Rong was taken aback, and suddenly realized the ambiguity of the current atmosphere - he was angry just now and didn't know which step to take, and now he was almost sitting on Qian Shuichong, who had one hand on his waist and the other on his back. He was on his back, almost holding him in his arms, not to mention the distance between the two of them now facing each other, Zhong Rong felt that he could kiss him with just one movement.

The candlelight rendered Qian Shuichong's outline blurred, Zhong Rong's familiar eyes were in his eyes half covered by eyelashes, and he could no longer clearly realize that Qian Shuichong and Jiu were the same person at this moment, only he could have such Such a beautiful look.

Isn't Qian Shuichong really the same kind of person as him?Zhong Rong thought suddenly.

Does he have to leave Qian Shuichong?

The relationship these days, and the fact that Qian Shuichong is [-], Zhong Rong knows that Qian Shuichong has the same strong affection for Flying Switch as he does, and they are actually very similar. The idea of ​​[-] is very clear to Zhong Rong, just like Qian Shuichong, at least half of Qian Shuichong Zhong Rong understands, so why did he have to leave Qian Shuichong?

Why did he leave in the first place?It was because he felt that the bond between himself and Qian Shuichong was not enough in reality, and that he would be abandoned one day.

But look at the person who is holding him carefully now, will this person really abandon himself?

He can't let go.

Zhong Rong grabbed Qian Shuichong's shoulders tightly and wrapped his arms around his neck.

He may be able to abandon it in reality, but absolutely not in the game. There will be no second person who has such a tacit understanding with him in Flying Switch, and there will be no second person who will take the incredible treasure hunt with him.

Let's just confess at this moment, Zhong Rong thought, he wants to catch Qian Shuichong thoroughly, he wants to become the closest person with Qian Shuichong.

Qian Shuichong's eyes were focused and soft, and under the candlelight, his eyes were smoldering, which was particularly moving.

Zhong Rong narrowed his eyes, watching him getting closer, his fingers curled up, his heart beating faster, and he slowly closed his eyes.
