I have five more boyfriends after amnesia

Jiao Zuo paused for a while, and did not answer for a while. Obviously, this question touched a certain core or something he cared about.

Just when Tang Lanting thought he was not going to answer, Jiao Cuo suddenly relaxed, and then leaned back on the chair in a relatively casual posture: "Well, anyway, you have already touched here, and I will give you another answer." There's no point in playing charades."

Tang Lanting thought to himself: "Did you not give up until just now and continue your riddle behavior?"

After Jiao Cuo decided not to continue to cover up, he simply stopped restraining himself. Tang Lanting saw him hook his fingers slightly, and a cup of coffee appeared in his hand.

Tang Lanting opened his eyes slightly, and he couldn't help looking at Jiao Cuo, wondering if this was a seamless impromptu magic trick.

Jiao Cuo slightly moved the coffee cup forward, motioning for Tang Lanting to take it. Seeing that the other party did not move for a long time, he let out a breath from his throat impatiently, and then stuffed it into the opposite person's hand with a little force.

The coffee cup in his hand is not heavy, and there is only about 200ml of liquid in it. A small cup can be drunk by an adult man in two sips, but the cup is steaming hot, which makes it difficult for people to sip for a while.

"Try it." Jiao Cuo raised his chin towards Tang Landing.

Tang Lanting glanced at the coffee in his hand, and could feel the scalding heat through the coffee cup.

"May I ask what this means?" Tang Lanting didn't have the idea to drink it yet, at least he didn't plan to drink it until the temperature of this cup of coffee dropped to the right level.

Jiao Cuo sighed again, this time he sighed a little louder, Tang Lanting found it very interesting——

The appearance of the man in front of him is undoubtedly very mature, standing with him is also older than his age, but there is a trace of childishness inadvertently revealed in his behavior.

It's like being a young child in the body of an adult.

Jiao Cuo faced Tang Lanting like a teacher facing a stubborn student. He pinched his knuckles and said, "It's too troublesome to explain. You can take a sip first so that you can understand the concept—don't worry, it won't burn you." Broke your tongue."

Tang Lanting was skeptical, and moved the teacup closer to him. When he approached, he could feel the rising heat from the tip of his nose, which made him sneer.

But after all, it was done, but Tang Lanting's eyes widened in surprise the moment the coffee flowed into his mouth.

When the bitter and mellow boiling coffee slipped into the mouth, it brought the taste of ice-cold fruit juice. This contrast between hot and cold obviously violated the reality that should unfold.

Tang Lanting took another sip, even tried it with his fingertips, and finally confirmed that no matter how hot the coffee looked, as long as it touched his lips and teeth, it would turn into ice juice.

Putting down the cup, Tang Lanting murmured in shock, "How did you do it..."

Jiao Cuo pursed his lips, his fingers moved slightly, and the coffee cup in Tang Lanting's hand disappeared into the air in an instant: "As you can see, this world is false."

Tang Lanting raised his forehead: "I know, the last time I confirmed it with the system... or you, it's just..."

It's just that he didn't expect it to be so exciting.

Jiao Cuo's move just now has gone beyond the common sense of physics, and has turned to fantasy.

Tang Lanting felt that even if Jiao Cuo told him now that he was actually a monk in a certain cultivator who had fallen into illusions in the past, it was not impossible for him to believe it.

Jiao Cuo interrupted him: "Yes, but haven't you thought about why it is fake?"

"Hmm..." Tang Lanting was silent for a moment: "Thought about it."

"But I don't have any basis to support my conjecture, or should I apply the plots in those novels? For example, I actually live in a high-tech world, and then I am dying in the real world. Now the spirit Entering this world, the outside world is actually rescuing my blood??" Tang Landing calmly complained.

Jiao Cuo: ...

Seeing his expression, Tang Lanting couldn't help but become serious. He just said it casually just now, so he must have guessed it right, right? !

Jiao Cuo cleared his throat, trying to find some ground for himself, and then he said seriously: "It's similar, but not the same. The world we live in now is a world of mental data artificially created, but the reason why you came in It was because of a conspiracy."

Tang Lanting didn't fluctuate in his heart, and even wanted to open the Jinjiang Literature City app on his phone, pointing at the novel Jiaocuo on it, and said: Do you know that this kind of routine has already been written badly in it?

Playing charades with me for so long, is that all? ? ?

Jiao Cuo could also see Tang Lanting's disapproval. He pursed his lips and said, "Because of the restrictions of the people who constructed this spiritual world, certain content has been set as forbidden words. I can't tell you to put your spirit into this virtual world." The intentions of the people in the world, otherwise my existence will be immediately noticed by the other party."

"But what is certain is that if I hadn't come to help you, your fate would have been completely controlled by that 'sacrifice system', and you wouldn't have the ability to resist at all."

Tang Lanting said: "Is it not allowed in any form? Including paper and pen? You can make coffee out of thin air just now, so you should also have a certain ability to modify and manipulate this virtual world?"

"No." Jiao Cuo replied firmly, "Because it is a piece of code designed by the other party from the source. The purpose of dragging you into the spiritual world and knowing the truth in your current state will be contradictory."

"As for the ability I just used, it can only be used when no other virtual NPCs are present. You are special, so you won't be restricted."

Virtual NPC?

Tang Lanting thought for a while, and immediately realized that Jiao Cuo was referring to those people who were similar to "Passerby A".

A guy whose mind is more childish than his appearance, but who is also very arrogant and proud.

Tang Lanting's impression of Jiaocuo was renewed again, he did not refute those thoughts of Jiaocuo, but silently changed the subject and said: "Well, then you always want me to capture those targets...how can you complete the strategy? I will be free, does it mean that I will wake up from this virtual world after clearing it?"

"...The target of the attack includes you?" Tang Lanting couldn't help frowning at the other party when he said this.

Seeing that the doctor with gold-rimmed glasses who looked very well-dressed suddenly became less indifferent, Jiao Cuo crossed his hands and fingers in front of him, covering his mouth expression.

After an unbearable silence, he finally said slowly, "Yes, including me."

Tang Lanting: "...Oh."

Please allow him to put a tactical back emoticon here.

Jiao Cuo reluctantly raised the corner of his mouth, and said sleepily: "If you need a key to wake you up, then this key is divided into five parts, and you need to gather all the conditions to open the door."

"Maybe you don't believe it, but 'I'... no, 'we' are originally the same person." Jiao Cuo looked into Tang Lanting's eyes and said.

……the same person?

Tang Lanting was a little overwhelmed for a while.

Tang Yulou, Ye Jiao, Rong Danqiu, Xiao Yi, and...Jiao Cuo, these five people are actually the same person?

He couldn't help recalling all the characteristics of these five people in his mind. Not only did they have no similarities in appearance, but even their personalities were mostly completely different.

If you catch a random person on the road and tell him that Mr. Tang and Ye Jiao are actually the same person, that person will definitely give you a big white eye, and a more friendly person will gently advise you to go to the psychiatry department Take a look at the head.

"I know it's hard for you to believe, but in fact the five of us together are the real 'I', and each individual that is now split into five is actually grasping a certain aspect of the characteristics and strengthening it come out, and this is not limited to character, it will also be manifested in other aspects such as appearance."

When he said this, Tang Lanting seemed to be aware of it.

But why?

As if aware of his confusion, Jiao Cuo smiled mockingly: "Because 'I' like you."

It is precisely because of this feeling of liking that it is reflected on every split body, so no matter which attack target, they always have a good impression of Tang Lanting in a very short period of time.

Jiao Cuo lowered his eyes to hide the cold temperature inside: "As an outsider who is not within the scope of the invitation, if I want not to alarm the master who created this virtual world, 'I' can only split my spiritual will into five parts, That way you don't get noticed."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sneered: "If I didn't like you, then why would 'I' cut myself into five pieces and come in to save you at the risk? Even if you are in the era of the false memory that you are injected into now Here, schizophrenia is also a very dangerous symptom, right?"

Tang Lanting's fingers under the sleeves tightened: "...But you don't like me, do you?"

This "you" only refers to the Jiaocuo in front of you.

Even though he tried his best to cover it up, this gentle man still couldn't hide the indignation and injustice in his tone.

Jiao Cuo sighed: "You are really sensitive in matters of emotion."

"If only you were like this in real life."

Tang Lanting was taken aback by his words, which meant that although Jiaocuo was also one of the fragments that had been divided, he actually had the memory of his body.

However, the other party didn't want to hide this. From the beginning, Jiao Cuo's camouflage system was lurking beside him, and then he showed the ability to modify reality directly in front of him just now, all of which reflected the specialness of this slice.

When it comes to reality, Jiao Cuo always seems to have something to say.

Tang Lanting thought about it, and decided to hit a straight ball: "What is the relationship between me and you in reality? This should be able to be said, right?"

Jiao Cuo regained that lazy and gentle look: "There is nothing to say, it's nothing more than... this kind of relationship."

He seemed to remember something in the middle part, his tone suddenly became vague, and Tang Lanting couldn't hear what he said clearly.

Realizing that he almost slipped his tongue, Jiao Cuo sat up straight.

"It's nothing more than the relationship between the superior and the subordinate." He cleared his throat and said again.

Speaking of this, Jiao Cuo raised his eyebrows and said: "So you should be grateful. If it wasn't for helping 'I', you wouldn't have to take such a big risk. If 'that person' found out..."

"Thank you." Tang Lanting interrupted him.

Jiao Cuo was taken aback.

What Tang Lanting showed him was extremely frank kindness and gratitude.

Facing such pure gratitude, Jiao Cuo didn't know how to react for a moment, after all, his attitude towards Tang Lanting just now had always been relatively bad.

Jiao Cuo is used to face the contempt of others with laughter, or retaliate with an eye for an eye, but he has only seen such an attitude of repaying kindness with kindness in Tang Lanting.

Even if it's just a small conversation, it's hard for ordinary people to express their disgust over and over again, and it's hard for Tang Lanting to not take it to heart.

No wonder, "I" will like you.

Jiao Cuo muttered in his heart, but he still didn't change his decision.

In what he said to Tang Lanting just now, one sentence was actually a lie.

The complete "he" can give without asking for anything in return, but he is different.

In order to stay behind, Jiao Cuo of the main body deliberately stuffed the memory into his split body, and in exchange for that emotional data on Tang Lanting, he couldn't let it go.

It's just that he didn't expect that Jiao Cuo, who is a split body, did not fall in love with Tang Lanting as he wished, but had other plans.

Sorry, "I".

Jiao Cuo said silently in his heart.

As a part of "Focus", I naturally have to find some way out for "myself". Even though the original plan can get Tang Landing out of this world as quickly as possible, he just doesn't want Tang Landing to sit back and enjoy the benefits.

Enough blood and tears have been shed in the real world, including the memory of lying on the cold operating table, and the anxiety of sitting behind the window waiting to see the sun again...

He who also had this painful memory couldn't swallow this breath.

Not to retaliate against Tang Lanting's private work is already the biggest concession made for the sake of the body's face.

Besides... From the beginning to the end, there will be no loss for Tang Lanting in this matter.

Thinking this way, Jiao Cuo glanced at Tang Lanting lightly.

The young man is indeed extremely beautiful. His jet-black hair is as soft and smooth as a crow's feathers. His slightly shallow eyes look at people with deep emotions. The slightest movement of the eyes makes them look charming. His skin is more beautiful than the most precious white porcelain. Smooth, it is indeed the person who has entered the top spot of the national people's dream lover list for three consecutive times, but it is a pity...

Unfortunately, he just doesn't like it.

In his heart, he once again spurned the hopeless eyes of the main body and other splits, Jiao Cuo put on a formulaic smile again and said: "It's useless for you to thank me now, your goal now is to try to get the five splits together at the same time." Raid all the body down."

"Once the favorability reaches 100%, the 'code' on them will also be in your hands. After collecting all the codes, you can break this virtual world."

"I have to remind you, because after the completion of the strategy, the split body is equivalent to completing the task and will be recycled, so don't be surprised why there are fewer people after the strategy is completed." Jiao Cuo said.

Tang Lanting nodded and said solemnly, "I see."

Jiao Cuo breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had finally completed his science popularization task, and was about to send Tang Lanting away, when he heard the young man say, "Then do you need a strategy too?"

"...No, after you have conquered the other four fragments, I can directly hand over my code to you through permission operations."

"Besides..." Jiao Cuo said and glanced at Tang Lanting lightly, "I don't think I will like you, so you better not waste your efforts."

Tang Lanting blinked: "Oh."

He felt that Jiao Cuo was hiding some information.
