Shen Yunzhe, who grew up in an orphanage, was laid off by his company. After failing to find a job, he was tricked into a thrilling live-stream game.
The process was full of hardships and ter...

Chapter 70
【Synchronization...Synchronization failed.】
[Codename Corrosion synchronization rate increased to 71%. No, it's reached its limit.]
[Codename: Hope, help!] The system had no choice but to ask for help from the only familiar person it needed to communicate with. [Shen Yunzhe is currently unable to withstand such a high synchronization rate. Synchronization must be terminated immediately.]
Codename Hope just sat there with his eyes closed, not saying a word, as if he hadn't heard anything.
[Codename: Hope.]
"I refuse." Codename Hope finally spoke.
He slowly opened his eyes, looking exactly like Shen Yunzhe, with a hint of a smile in his silver eyes.
Although they are the same person, they are not completely the same person after all. Shen Yunzhe, who was born in a peaceful era, would never have the eyes of Codename Hope. Codename Hope often disguises himself as innocent and pitiful, and usually shows himself in the simplest appearance, but he is a person with the most extreme and worst emotions.
He relied on Shen Yunzhe, but never put himself under Shen Yunzhe.
【What's the meaning? 】
"If you let me help clean up the mess, you should at least give me some compensation, right? Even in the real world, when the officials recruited me, they wouldn't dare ask me to work for free."
The system was silent for a few seconds, and he knew what the code name Hope meant.
You knew the code erosion was going to get out of control when we first started synchronizing, so you said Shen Yunzhe was severely affected. But you didn't say so, and you didn't try to stop it. You watched helplessly as things actually developed to this point, and you still came to negotiate terms with me.
[I originally thought that Shen Yunzhe's safety would change your attitude.]
Codename Hope smiled, as gentle and innocent as ever.
"I'm just trying to stand up for myself."
"Aren't you a system? An intelligent AI? Then you should be able to figure out that after spending over twenty years in this place, I suddenly find myself able to go out for a walk occasionally. What a temptation this is." Codename Hope's voice was soft, but his words were sharp. "Since you dare to show me, don't be afraid that I'll beg."
[Aren't you afraid that Shen Yunzhe is really dead? ]
"I'm not afraid." Codename Hope said, "I wish he would die right now, so that I can stop thinking about him and stay here for a few more years before dying."
"You have no other choice. If Shen Yunzhe dies, it will really be your fault."
The system thought: What did he say when Shen Yunzhe asked about the parallel world?
It said: Shen Yunzhe in the parallel world is the same person as him, so helping himself is something that does not require any consideration.
It was wrong. It forgot that there was a small piece of shit in Shen Yunzhe's parallel world counterpart... It didn't even let itself go.
If the system doesn't agree, Codename hopes to really watch Shen Yunzhe die. He won't lose anything anyway. All he wants is to stay in this dark place for a few more years and not die so soon. The strong negative emotions of Shen Yunzhe's death are enough to provide him with good emotional motivation.
【one day. 】
"One week." Codename Hope's strength increased sevenfold as he spoke.
[Don't go too far. Now that you've entered this place, you can't walk around outside for long. Identical replacement is just a deception, and it won't last long.]
"What does this have to do with me?" Codename Hope tilted her head. "Isn't this something you need to consider?"
Damn it, Shen Yunzhe and his isotope are both bastards, they are here specifically to defeat this system!
【Three days, not even an hour more! 】
When Shen Yunzhe opened his eyes, he heard the system cursing.
This system, which calls itself an intelligent AI, is occasionally a bit mischievous, and is mostly quiet as if it doesn't exist. This is the first time it has become so emotional.
"Shen Yunzhe?!" Ji Yu almost rushed over, but was stopped by Zhang Xian.
"He just woke up, don't rush over. What if you knock him unconscious again?" Zhang Xian's voice.
"Yes, I can't do this. I won't go over there." Ji Yu actually believed it.
Shen Yunzhe looked at the sky and found himself lying on a bench, covered with a piece of clothing. It was already dawn outside. Zhang Xian helped him up, spread his fingers and waved them in front of his eyes, while asking Shen Yunzhe if he could recognize which day it was.
Good TV drama technique.
"Five?" Shen Yunzhe took the time to answer.
"Recovered? Are you okay?" Zhang Xian asked again.
It was the system that spoke at the same time as Zhang Xian, but unlike Zhang Xian, the system didn't seem to want him to answer at all, and just kept inputting information into Shen Yunzhe.
[Code Erode's synchronization rate is out of control. You were almost crushed by Code Erode's mental power. I'm temporarily letting Code Hope take over. Code Hope's synchronization rate is 100%.]
[Yes, you heard it right, 100%! ]
"You're threatening me with your own life when you're dying. Why do I feel like this is a twist in the script? Anyway, he'll be here soon. Ask him the specific questions."
[The playground is different from reality. Be prepared to control it at all times. The prerequisite for leaving the playground is to complete the mission. If you destroy the medium in advance, you will be trapped in this playground forever.]
Shen Yunzhe thought: The system still underestimated code name Hope.
The system clearly knew better than him that Codename Hope was an extreme person who could achieve his goals in the most risky and impulsive way. It was just a gamble on Shen Yunzhe's life and death. The moment the system found Codename Hope to save him, Codename Hope won.
It’s not that Shen Yunzhe thinks he is an exquisite and beautiful doll, he is really a harmless doll.
This doll is amazing.
"Shen Yunzhe?" Zhang Xian patted his shoulder. "Are you okay? Why are you so slow to react?"
Shen Yunzhe turned to look at Zhang Xian, his face reflected in his eyes.
Oh, by the way, there is an official person here.
Codename hopes that a face-to-face encounter with him is inevitable... What should I do? Should I silence him first?
Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment, then he quickly retreated until he was three meters away from Shen Yunzhe. Ji Yu was startled by him. Zhang Xian shrank three meters away and silently stared at Shen Yunzhe, like a cat with its fur standing on end. As soon as Shen Yunzhe raised his hand, he turned around and ran away.
Zhang Xian was very sensitive to danger, especially since he was an official. The moment he looked at Shen Yunzhe, he felt murderous intent.
Shen Yunzhe, who seemed like a simple and cheerful boy all the way, fainted in the middle of the night while talking to himself, and after waking up, he became a different person and wanted to kill him?
How could he have such a dream?! Oh, Shen Yunzhe's profile already indicated that he had a worrying mental state and a volatile personality.
That's okay... No way!
No matter how bad his mental condition is, he wouldn't suddenly want to kill someone!
"Why are you running so fast?" Shen Yunzhe sat up from the bench, still wearing Zhang Xian's coat. He smiled and said, "It's not that I'm not prepared to take action."
Shit, admitted it.
Zhang Xian swallowed his saliva. "There are rules in the game field. Players cannot harm each other."
"How many players will actually follow the rules of the game?" Shen Yunzhe said calmly, but the meaning behind his words was terrifying. "How many players can actually cooperate? As an official, you should know better than me. In this game, I'm the junior and have the least experience."
But you are in too much danger now!
Zhang Xian took two steps back. "Can I ask why? I'm not a threat to you. At most, I'm just observing and recording you. That's not illegal."
In fact, Shen Yunzhe is also a normal person, the kind of normal person who is law-abiding and has some small hobbies, but most of the time he is quite sociable. But unfortunately, Codename Xiwang is not a normal person. Every time he synchronizes with Codename Xiwang, he will undergo some subtle changes.
It's okay for him to just let his extreme emotions run wild, and scaring people is no problem either.
Well, he was just talking, he didn't dare to silence the person.
So how do we rationalize our code hopes?
"Have you ever considered going to a specialized hospital for treatment for your sudden change in mental state?" Zhang Xian asked again when Shen Yunzhe didn't respond, trying to get him to change his mind. "You were so friendly one day, and you're calling for violence the next. You won't make any friends this way."
Why does he need friends? He doesn’t have a job and doesn’t need to socialize.
Shen Yunzhe thought expressionlessly.
"You are so alert, do you have any special abilities?" Shen Yunzhe suddenly asked.
Zhang Xian shut up.
But in fact, Zhang Xian didn't know whether he had any special abilities, and it was difficult for their officials to define it, because some special people were able to perceive danger. That thing was called intuition. Zhang Xian was just more sensitive to danger.
Recruiting people with special abilities is also an official task. Unfortunately, there are not many people with special abilities. Half of them can enter the game field, and half of them can be discovered by them. In the end, it is not known whether there are only one tenth of them who are really persuaded to join.
So Zhang Xian is an official member who is half-baked and doesn't know if he has any special abilities, but he is indeed sensitive to danger, and his level is actually quite high.
"Do you think I have any special abilities?" Shen Yunzhe asked him.
Zhang Xian was confused and surprised. He had not yet recovered from his previous vigilance, but his intuition told him that Shen Yunzhe no longer wanted to kill him.
Could Shen Yunzhe be a person with special abilities?
But at present, apart from his changeable personality and worrying mental state, Shen Yunzhe really has nothing special. At most, as Director Yue said, he seems to know a lot, including forensic knowledge, but he has no forensic training experience.
This is the only doubt.
As Zhang Xian was thinking, his eyes suddenly widened. He looked behind Shen Yunzhe almost out of control, and his whole body was in an uncontrollable shock.
Shen Yunzhe knew why without asking, because he felt someone hugging him from behind, with cold hands touching him. Shen Yunzhe heard the faint breathing sound beside his ear, and the person's long silver hair hung beside his ear, just like his own hair.
I cheated the system to get a three-day holiday, and I hope to be happy.
"Shen Yunzhe." Codename Hope was still wearing the clothes he had left her in, hugging him tightly with such a clear conscience, "Can you please die a few more times in the future?"
"That way I can come out more often."
Shen Yunzhe: ...
This beautiful doll that turned against its owner really needs to be taught a lesson.
…
Fortunately, this is an amusement park, and there are shops selling small commodities in amusement parks. The small commodities have not been taken away from the abandoned amusement park, and Shen Yunzhe found the little girl's cat hair tie.
Shen Yunzhe tied up Codename Xiwang's hair with a hair tie, and couldn't help but stare at the pink cat head on his head.
A little childish, but somehow appropriate.
Zhang Xian, who was three meters away, squatted behind a chair and wrote in a notebook, "I didn't expect it to be like this."
"The one who can directly harm strange creatures isn't just a player, but an extension of their abilities. That's why they can't find anyone. It's you, don't even mention you saying both of them are you." Zhang Xian muttered to himself, "But this is the first time I've heard that special abilities can actually create a person out of thin air."
Codename Hope frowned and looked at Zhang Xian with a hint of subtlety in his eyes.
Zhang Xian's voice wasn't loud, but he kept chattering, and Codename Hope was getting annoyed.
If Shen Yunzhe is annoyed, then he is simply annoyed and will not do anything. Codename Hope, if he feels annoyed, then it may really turn into a murder case.
So Shen Yunzhe reached out and covered his ears, "Alright, we're in the playground now, don't think about anything else, the rules don't allow it."
After saying this, he looked at Zhang Xian again and asked, "Do you know who can truly keep a secret?"
"I know, it's a dead person. Now I know why you wanted to kill me." Zhang Xian also said frankly, "But I found out that you don't want to kill me anymore. Why?"
Shen Yunzhe covered the ears of Code Name Hope and did not answer.
Codename Hope smiled, his thin lips opening and closing as he said something silently.
"Because you want to restrain me."
Now, only Zhang Xian and Ji Yu are working together with Shen Yunzhe. The people from Wenhai are unreliable no matter how you look at them, but now Ji Yu has been infected by the code name and obviously cannot be relied upon. As an official, Zhang Xian must have some means in his hands that they don't know about.
It would be a terrible thing if Codename Hope got out of control, and Shen Yunzhe might not be able to stop it alone.
He needs someone to help him pull it together.
As he thought about it, Shen Yunzhe felt a little disgusted: Why does it sound like a Husky having fun?
Just then, Ji Yu, who volunteered to get breakfast, rushed over.
"Oh no!" Ji Yu said, "Wen Hai and the others have entered the cinema!"
"What?!" Zhang Xian stood up. "All four of them went in?!"
"Yes, I was planning to give them some flyers. We're all gamers, so we should share information." Ji Yu said, his eyes full of worry. "But before I could give them the flyers, I saw the four of them go in together. I wanted to call out to them, but the theater door closed in front of me."
Shen Yunzhe released his hand. "Since you can find these brochures, they can too."
"That's even more wrong. If they find the brochure, can they still get in?"
"Our mission is to play all the rides in the amusement park. We have to go to those places. The director might be in the cinema. Our initial plan was to contact the director there first. They probably have the same idea as us."
Zhang Xian frowned. "That's true, but who knows if there will be any problems? If the carousel is gone, and the pendant is gone, then if this trend continues, the cinema will also be gone."
"No, I have to go and see."
Ji Yu nodded continuously, "They are in great danger, we should go and save them."
"Sister, we are not trying to save them, but observing the situation." Zhang Xian had to focus on Ji Yu again, "You must remember that Shen Yunzhe saved you. You can't just throw away the life that Shen Yunzhe saved with great difficulty."
Ji Yu suddenly realized, "Yes, I should protect myself, I want to repay Shen Yunzhe."
Zhang Xian nodded, then turned around and said, "Shen Yunzhe, stay here and don't go over. Ensuring your safety is also ensuring Ji Yu's safety."
He has said this much, he can't let Shen Yunzhe fall into danger and give Ji Yu a chance to save him with his own life.
Watching Zhang Xian leave and Ji Yu chasing after him, Shen Yunzhe sighed, "Zhang Xian's brain works pretty fast."
He had obviously discovered that although Ji Yu's personality change was not right, most of her attention was on Shen Yunzhe. Like Wang Shiyu, she was prepared to die to save Shen Yunzhe. Zhang Xian had no way to deal with this problem, but he could use it to prevent Ji Yu from dying easily.
She was going to die for Shen Yunzhe, how could she die for other reasons?
Scare the guy first.
"Shen Yunzhe." Codename Hope grabbed Shen Yunzhe's hand and spoke.
Shen Yunzhe looked down at him, "What are you doing?"
"I want to ride the carousel." Codename Hope pointed to the carousel that was turning in front of them.
Shen Yunzhe looked at it and said, "Is there no one over there? Why is the carousel moving by itself?"
"What does it matter?" Codename Hope stared at it with a hint of malice in his eyes. "I won't tear it down."
Very good, Shen Yunzhe confirmed.
He wanted to go there just to dismantle the carousel.
