The soul of the ex-husband

Xiao Qi didn't realize what happened yet.

Tata rushed to the side cabinet, pulled open a certain cabinet door, pointed to the reflection on the glass of the cabinet door, motioned to him and said, "Look!"

The glass is facing Xiao Qi's face.

A very beautiful young face appeared on the glass surface, with bright starry eyes, red lips and white teeth. Dog breath, no matter what era it is in, it is the type that is favored by the opposite sex on campus.

Xiao Qi glanced at it, then subconsciously shrank back on the bed, and blurted out: "What the hell?"

Xiao Qi had a ghostly expression on his face, stretched out a finger and pointed at the reflection on the glass, and trembled when he spoke: "This, this, this..." as if he was frightened into aphasia.

Tata didn't expect Xiao Qi to have such a big reaction, he was nervous for a while, and quickly comforted him: "Master, it's okay, this is..."

Before Tata could say anything, Xiao Qi straightened his tongue, glanced at the crowd, and said in a sonorous and forceful voice, "Who is this handsome guy?"

Everyone who was a little nervous: "..."

Pretty confident...

Tata's face was full of black lines, and she cooperated speechlessly: "It's you... maybe you are seventeen or eighteen years old."

Xiao Qi's expression gradually relaxed, he got up and walked to the cabinet door, leaned forward slightly, squeezed his face in front of the glass mirror, and said to himself: "You guys are so handsome, I almost didn't recognize them..."

"...You are enough, Uncle." Tata remained expressionless.

Xiao Qi obviously has no objection to his current image, or to be more precise, he doesn't care about his image at all.

But there was one thing he didn't understand.

"That's right." Xiao Qi turned his face away, looked at Zhou Heng at the side, and said, "Why haven't you guys changed, what is my setting?"

Tata glanced at Zhou Heng, with a hint of darkness in his eyes, and murmured to Peter Pan beside him, "Do you think Master Zhou's actions... have any deep meaning?"

Peter Pan thought for a while, then said uncertainly, "To get back the feeling of first love?"

"I think you're half right. The young master typically carries private goods..." Tata hecked, and she always felt a little wretched when she looked closely. She pulled Pan Peter aside and said in a low voice, "Think about it, yes With the tapir as the carrier, Master Day is also a master of game design. He can completely develop a 18+ holographic game, which is... oh...you know, it's the kind of routine that is not very clean, and then create an obedient and sensible game in it. As for who the toy is... Shhh... Then the young master can let the uncle wear a maid outfit, a nurse outfit, or a student outfit. What's even more amazing is that the young master can also make the uncle's face and figure according to his own preferences. Adjust it to be younger or more mature, and then change to different scenes... Finally, play with the uncle heartily..."

This room is not big, even whispers can be heard by others to some extent.

"What's your opinion on Zhou Heng?" Xiao Qi only asked for a pair of clean ears, but couldn't keep listening, and said, "We must arrange him like this? Can Zhou Heng be as dirty as you?"

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, Zhou Heng raised his eyes and glanced at him, there was a faint smile hidden in the depths of his phoenix eyes, but it was not noticed by the people around.

"I didn't arrange the young master, I think that's what he thought, and he was experimenting dangerously..."

Xiao Qi glanced over lightly, Tata immediately shut up cleverly and stopped teasing.

Zhou Heng smiled lightly at this time, and seemed not to mind Tata's "arrangement", and explained in a gentle voice: "In the first few days when I was doing character modeling, you happened to be at school, and you didn't come, there were only three of them Come on, so they can model it according to the prototype. Then you thought it was troublesome, didn’t come to the studio, and said that you could arrange an image for you, so I took a photo of you in high school and created the character according to that.” In the end, he seemed unsure and asked, "You don't mind?"

Xiao Qi thought about it, there is indeed such a thing.He nodded, not feeling relieved, and said, "This kind of trivial matter... Even if you create me as Godzilla, I can accept it."

"..." Zhou Heng stared at Xiao Qi for a moment, then looked away subtly, and said in a low voice, "I can't."

"What?" Xiao Qi didn't hear clearly.

Zhou Heng showed a friendly smile to Xiao Qi.

But Xiao Qi thinks about another question, since Zhou Heng can set his image based on the photos, why use his photos from ten years ago instead of the current photos?

why?

Xiao Qi fell into a momentary daze.

Peter Pan was still in a state of novelty, touched left and right, and said, "Since we have already entered the game, what should we do next?"

Just at this moment, everyone heard a female voice without warning: "Hello."

Everyone was shocked at the same time.Simon looked around at the air and asked vigilantly, "Who?"

"Your heartbeat is accelerating, and many vital signs show signs of jumping. Are you excited? Or fear?" The female voice was kind and cheerful, with a soothing rhythm and very precise pronunciation, as if all impurities had been removed, but at the same time, because of Too perfect to appear hollow.

The female voice didn't seem to expect their answer, and continued: "Hello, I'm the administrator of this game. You can call me Vera. It's nice to meet you. I think you must be confused by the current environment, but Please don't worry, I am in charge here, and I will answer you as much as possible."

The female voice sounds in everyone's head synchronously, and it is not a physical sound transmission, so it feels weird and novel.

Peter Pan tilted his head and patted his ears with one hand, as if he wanted to pour out the voice in his head.

Seeing this, Simon expressed disgust at his friend's mentally retarded behavior, and took a step away to show that they were not familiar with each other.

"You are the AI ​​developed by the Nightmare Tapir?" Xiao Qi copied his trouser pockets with both hands, stood still and pondered for a while, and said, "You said you are in charge of the game, so can you track down Xie Zichun's current location? She has been online for almost an hour .”

The artificial intelligence named "Vera" responded for two seconds, and said politely: "Sorry, I don't seem to understand what you are talking about."

Xiao Qi said: "..."

Sudden loss of confidence in the future of artificial intelligence.

Tata laughed, and said to the voice in her head: "Sister, why are you less reliable than me?"

Vera, however, seemed to be infected with happiness, and said with a straight voice, calm and unhurried: "Sister. I like this title."

"Okay, Vera, what can you detect now?" Zhou Heng said at this time, bringing back the topic that had gradually deviated, and said, "Please report any information about the player."

"Okay, day." After a brief pause of one or two seconds, Vera said in a calm female voice, "We sent out 120 invitation links before, and 106 of them have been activated, including Specially marked invitation codes. Since you went online, the game channel has been closed, so the current number of active players on the field is a total of [-], [-], and no one has quit the game so far."

"Okay, thank you, Vera." Zhou Heng smiled, even in the face of the invisible artificial intelligence, he was very polite and personable.He said: "It seems that she is still there."

"Who's there?" Pan Peter was confused, looking around, hoping someone could answer his question.

"But I don't understand, Hiro." Vera's voice was filled with confusion, even if it was just a stereotyped imitation of human tone."I can't track the flagged invitation code, and once that flagged invitation code is activated, it's out of my control, and I can't detect him, or her anywhere," she said.

"That's because Xie Zichun disguised herself. She may appear at any time, anywhere, and is not controlled by the rules of the game." Zhou Heng said with a relaxed voice, looking at the void, "It doesn't matter, leave the next thing to us .”

Before withdrawing from everyone's minds, Vera kindly reminded: "Oh, by the way, your identities are NPCs, and you can communicate with me freely and without barriers with your consciousness. Hearing your voice, just like you can hear my voice at this moment, we are connected with brain consciousness, and will not let players intercept our sound waves and frequency bands. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, I will try to help you as much as possible .”

"So miraculous?" Peter Pan's eyes lit up, and immediately pressed his fingers on one temple, as if turning on the microphone switch, and said, "Then let me try."

Peter Pan said seriously with his thoughts: [Call Vera, call Vera, this is Peter Pan, the strongest in the universe! 】

"Yes, Peter, I can hear it." Vera replied with a smile.

The consciousness of everyone present has obviously been connected in series.Tata patted Pan Peter on the head and said, "You are the strongest in the universe? There is no psychological pressure to deceive artificial intelligence, right?"

Peter Pan covered his head and howled: "Sister! I also want to save face!"

Vera is temporarily offline.

Xiao Qi half-chair sat on the table beside him, looked at Zhou Heng, and said, "According to Vera, Xie Zichun is still in the game now?"

"Yeah." Zhou Heng smiled slightly and said, "Since Xie Zichun hasn't gone offline yet, it means she's interested in this game."

Judging by Zhou Heng's calm and calm look, it is obvious that the current situation is proceeding according to his plan.

"Then let's see the performance of those 106 Gao Wan..." Xiao Qi couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.At this time, he didn't even realize that when Zhou Heng was by his side, his mind would be more relaxed, even if he was in a mission with a high risk factor.

Xiao Qi stood upright, snapped his fingers, and said, "Okay, the rest time is over, let's go to the campus now."

On the side, Zhou Heng glanced at Xiao Qi, rolled his eyes calmly, and said, "Before that, I'll take you to see the decoupling site."

A group of people walked out of the psychotherapy room.

Peter Pan was the last to close the door. He couldn't help asking curiously: "Didn't Xie Zichun find out that this is a trap? How can we guarantee that she won't go offline until we find Xie Zichun?"

The Internet ring center is just a simulated scene, and it is not the main background venue of the game, so the corridor outside is empty, and there are no other people.

Zhou Heng's low magnetic voice sounded in this emptiness, as gentle as ever, and said: "Xie Zichun will not go offline, because she knows what the rewards of this game are, and she wants to be the last and only remaining player. "

"Then..." Tata couldn't remember for a while, and said, "What are the rewards of the game?"

Zhou Heng and Xiao Qi, who were walking in front, looked at each other and smiled at the same time without saying a word.

***

"Bah—!"

While Lu Xi opened the Sprite tab, she leaned heavily on the chair in front of the computer, and the swivel chair swayed back and forth due to the impact.

It's nine o'clock at night.

Lu Xi saw the invitation link lying in the mailbox two hours ago.At that time, he had just arrived home from school, and he saw that it was the game called "Crazy Words" that has become very popular recently. As a senior Internet addict, Lu Xi couldn't help itching his hands. He threw his schoolbag and sat in front of the computer. operate.

I also thought that I was busy handing in all kinds of homework recently, and I haven't started the live broadcast for more than a month, so I opened the Douyin platform.

According to his usual style, after the live broadcast window was opened, Lu Xi ignored it and devoted himself to studying the game description of "Crazy Talk", and let his broadcast start reminder blow up nearly a million fans.

After the invitation link was opened, it was a gorgeous web page with instructions for downloading the game program.

The abnormality of "Crazy Words" is that without a specific invitation code, even the game cannot be downloaded.

Lu Xi glanced at it. The game package was more than four G, which was quite time-consuming, so he parked the download page there, and went to finish dinner by himself first.

When Lu Xi came back now, he found that the number of viewers in the live broadcast room was breaking the platform record. He secretly thought that the premiere of "Crazy Words" might have attracted many passers-by.

However, Lu Xi's own traffic was frighteningly high, and the passers-by who were attracted by "Crazy Talk" and entered the live broadcast room were after all a minority.

But there are so many noisy people, the barrage is already full of noise.

The moment Lu Xi's cold and world-weary face appeared on the left side of the screen, the bullet screen frantically swiped like crazy.

【father!You are back!Miss me! 】

[Wuuuuuuuuuu Since the big baby Lu Xi went to college, he rarely started broadcasting. I hate college. 】

[Lu Xi also received the game invitation code?Awesome!As expected of Duoyin Zhiguang, I think the main person who received the invitation code is the up owner of Si station, and Lu Xi is the only one in Duoyin, right? 】

[What's the matter with this anchor?After leaving for two hours without making a sound, the game was downloaded on the desktop, and we just showed us the chairs, do you want to broadcast live?Is that for the audience? 】

[This anchor seems very attractive?He looked like no one in his eyes, didn't even smile, and looked frustrated. 】

[Stop scolding, stop scolding, don’t scold the newcomers, it’s useless if you scold him, he’s just like this, no one loves him, if he can start the broadcast, it’s a face for our group of licking dogs, don’t like it Click the upper right corner of the cross out, there is no shortage of traffic from you. 】

【…】

Lu Xi glanced at the barrage without emotion, there were praises and criticisms, but none of them caught his eye.This is how Lu Xi conducts live broadcasts, basically has no interaction with fans, and his ruthless appearance makes people love and hate.

Lu Xi opened the game interface, shook the mouse, and was about to minimize the live broadcast room, when a barrage floating at the bottom suddenly attracted his attention——

[Roommate is not at home today? 】

roommate……

Lu Xi stared at the barrage, and blinked listlessly. At the same time, his face finally had other emotions besides the expressionless face. Although it was not obvious, it seemed to have softened.

Before Lu Xi clicked the minimize button, he said to the live broadcast room for the first time: "My roommate has evening class today, so I will come back later."

The barrage skyrocketed again, and the fans seemed to be discussing something excitedly, but Lu Xi stopped paying attention. He logged into the game and let the barrage messages scroll on the transparent panel in the upper right corner.

……

As soon as they entered the game and saw the screen, everyone called them experts.

[Hey guy, this is a big production! 】

[I thought it was an HTML5 Two-dimensional animated online game, but I didn't expect it to come out with a super realistic CG style like Cyberpunk 2077. 】

[Come on!Funds are burning! 】

【Which studio is it? ! ! !Could it be the trumpet of the nightmare? 】

【…】

On the screen, what was shown was a lecture hall.

Lu Xi manipulated the perspective of the characters to look to the side, and found that there were also a few people sitting sparsely in the huge classroom, all looking around.Those people have different images, but they look as detailed and realistic as the surrounding scene layout.

Probably all players who went online at a similar time period.

Thinking of this, Lu Xi stopped paying attention to others, and turned her perspective to the window.

At this time, the time in the game is the evening of the sunset on the western mountain, the weather is very gloomy, and it looks like it will rain.Through the old and spacious window panes in the lecture theater, you can see the lead clouds that are pressed down very low in the sky. The junction between the clouds and the horizon is mixed with the orange-pink sunset.The sound of wind coming from an unknown direction is faintly rumbling through the glass.

It can be seen that this game is well-made, and the details are handled in place, so it is easy for players to have a sense of substitution.Lu Xi couldn't help but feel eager to try.

The game uses the No.1 perspective, that is, the player cannot see himself, but can only see things around him from the perspective of the game character.

Lu Xi pressed the Shift key to get up, and was about to look around to familiarize herself with the surroundings when she suddenly noticed a corner of an envelope protruding from the belly of the desk in front of her.

With years of game experience, Lu Xi keenly noticed the special features of this letter, so he pressed "E" and picked up the game props.

After the envelope was unfolded, the center of the screen began to tap out the text frame by frame, and the female voice in the relaxed and sweet words also sounded at this time:

[Chapter 1: Killing Ozawa]

"Ozawa is our alumni."

"She is beautiful, and she caused a sensation in the whole school as soon as she entered school; she is excellent in study, and you can see her silhouette studying quietly in the library at the end of each semester; she has excellent communication skills and gets along well with her classmates; she can sing He is good at dancing and has shown his talents in the top ten singer competitions on campus many times.”

"Not only that, but she also has a boyfriend called Xiicao, who is from a wealthy family and treats her very well, enough to arouse the envy and jealousy of many girls."

Lu Xi listened with a dull expression. Obviously, the setting of Marysu did not cause him much psychological fluctuation.But the barrage was not so calm, and scrolled more diligently.

[Who is Ozawa?What about people? 】

【You want to kill such a good girl? ? ?Still human? 】

[Is the plot about to start?Excited to rub hands. 】

The official account Red You tweeted [Qiaodou Sack, I read the game introduction said it was about campus bullying, Ozawa could not be the target of bullying, right? 】

【…】

The narration is still lively and pleasant:

"But since everyone knew that Ozawa was adopted by others, she no longer had a place on campus. Students were discussing about her, and campus forums were denouncing her shameless behavior."

Faced with such a sudden turn in the plot, Lu Xi slightly raised his eyebrows, feeling a little funny in his heart.

Finally, the female narrator said:

"Everyone hates Ozawa."

"So let's find her and kill her."

Immediately afterwards, a dark area opened on the screen, which read:

"Chapter [-] Winning Reward: Ozawa's Secret."

[? ? ? ?Why am I at a loss after listening to this? 】

[I still have the same question, where is Ozawa? 】

[Is it a puzzle game? 】

[Things are definitely not that simple!I still think that Ozawa is actually the target of being bullied, so please don't be misled. 】

【Heh, I don't even want to expose it. The name of the game says it all. Crazy words. There must be one party telling lies. The opening is definitely misleading information. 】

There was a lively discussion in the barrage, but Lu Xi didn't express his opinion.

He put the letter into the inventory, and manipulated the character into the aisle between the seats.

At this moment, the upper right corner of the game interface flashed with red dots, gradually rising from 1 to 6. Lu Xi opened it and saw that it was an invitation from players around him.

Lu Xi ignored it coolly and walked out of the lecture theater.

All the people coming and going in the corridor are students. Now it is the end of get out of class time, and everyone seems to be spending a normal afternoon of studying.

Lu Xi visually checked that those with IDs above their heads were players, while those without IDs were NPCs.

Lu Xi walked out of the teaching building all the way, at this moment, several NPCs walking towards him caught his attention.

But it's not that Lu Xi has sharp eyes or something, but that the images of those NPCs are too vivid. When they talk to themselves, their expressions are almost the same as real people. Compared with the surrounding NPCs, it is easy to distinguish them.

Especially the two men walking in the front, one looks like 23 years old, the other looks like a high school student, both have overly outstanding faces, so they can easily stand out from the crowd.

The female fans in the barrage are all active:

[Ahhhhh~~ These two paper figures are too cute!I love this game!Lu Xi give me another scene, I want a screenshot! 】

[Fuck, the game artist is a god, what about Ozawa, we followed these two NPCs all the way and licked our faces...]

[Look carefully at the taller one, does it look like the nightmare president who was very popular on the Internet a while ago? 】

[Is it really a game produced by Nightmare Tapir? 】

[Maybe the artist referred to the president's face, there are really not many men with such amazing looks. 】

While discussing, everyone noticed that Lu Xi was walking towards those NPCs.

***

Along the way, Xiao Qi and Zhou Heng planned whether to wait for Xie Zichun to come to the door by themselves, or they would take the initiative to provoke trouble, but they hadn't reached a conclusion yet, and they stood in front of him alone.

Xiao Qi had to stop and looked up blankly.

The player's image can be set according to his own preferences, that is, pinching his face, or directly using the characters provided by the game.

The one in front of him is obviously the latter, and he chose the most common and handsome little brother as his image.

Xiao Qi was subconsciously going to ask "Why", but he glanced at the ID floating above the player's head - [Lu Xi_Lucifer].

Xiao Qi choked abruptly, swallowed everything he wanted to say, and slandered, is it the one he knows?

It should be...the one who is so lazy, who doesn't even bother to change his image and name, should be Lu Xi.

Tata obviously recognized it too, took Xiao Qi's sleeve from behind, and whispered, "Uncle Master...it can't be such a coincidence..."

Speaking of the relationship between Xiao Qi and Lu Xi, it can be said that they are very familiar.Lu Xi was originally Xiao Qi's junior student. The child chose the path of becoming an Internet celebrity early in the year, so he was a proper scumbag. Then one day, this child suddenly went crazy and wanted to go to university, so he was forced to study by the school. The scum has become a waste of learning-either he doesn't work hard, or he is useless in learning everything.

Of course I failed the first year.

Then he took the exam for the second year, and coincidentally, when he repeated the exam in the second year, Lu Xi and Xiao Qi became classmates. After all, Xiao Qi was the famous "Senior Senior" of Canglan Private High School, and he was a repeat student.

Because the two had known each other before, and Lu Xi also knew the details of Xiao Qi's pretending to be crazy, so they naturally became tablemates.

Xiao Qi had already memorized those knowledge points in high school, so he secretly taught Lu Xi a year of lessons.

To make up lessons for Lu Xi, Xiao Qi of course also had a breakdown. He found that being the child's teacher not only has to make up for three years of high school, but also has to make up for the knowledge points of junior high school, which is equivalent to going back to the furnace and rebuilding.

Just like that, Xiao Qi finally sent Lu Xi into the gate of a top university in June this year by relying on the power of the god of learning.

Therefore, Xiao Qi counted as Lu Xi's master, the kind who would send messages to greet the last sentence every year and festival.

When Xiao Qi was thinking about how to deal with it, Vera's voice came online: "A player whose ID is Luxi Lucifer has applied for a connection, whether to connect him to the channel."

Xiao Qi was not sure, subconsciously glanced at Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng asked with his eyes: Do you know each other?

Xiao nodded.

Zhou Heng shrugged and said that it doesn't matter, let him do as he pleases.

From Lu Xi's perspective, he saw two pretty paper figures flirting in front of him, looking very suspicious.

However, at this moment, the system issued a prompt: [The connection is successful, the player can speak in the group and talk to the members of the group. 】

Lu Xi came up and said to the high school student, "Are you..."

Xiao Qi is calm on the surface, but he is a little empty in his heart.

He knew that with his friendship with Lu Xi, it was impossible not to be recognized. Lu Xi might have seen through it at a glance just now.

However, while Xiao Qi was thinking wildly, Lu Xi let out a gasp and murmured in a weak tone: "Forget it, I forgot which one it is..."

Xiao Qi: "..."

Lu Xi saw that the NPC in front of him smiled politely at him, and then a system prompt appeared on the screen:

[You have been kicked out of the group chat. 】

The author has something to say: Xiao Qi: Bah, white-eyed wolf.
