Chapter 72 Abnormal Monitoring Bureau (1) “The key is the one you used before…
So the forum speculation is true?! The sequel is a time-reversed version of the previous game, not a parallel universe! Ahhhh, you old bastard, you bastard! You fooled us so badly!
[Ahahahahahaha, not only is our brother not human, he's also a boss-level ghost story master. This is so hot! I want a sequel that's not hot either!]
Don't be pessimistic! Although the sequel currently has no chance of winning, Brother Yingdi and Xiaoyu are both heading towards the CB line! Don't underestimate the bond between Shibao and Brother. Even if they are not human, what does it matter?
[Alas, brother, alas, Xiaoyu, one has been silently guiding and accompanying him, even leaving was for him, while the other is willing to do anything as long as the other can survive... Alas, come back brother, please come back.]
Why are so many people nostalgic about the Spring and Autumn period? Has no one paid attention to this limited edition Hunxie brother with a strong sense of inhumanity? He's still aloof, but the sequel maintains that aloof, detached feeling, while the new chapter is an incomprehensible, uninteresting apathy. Each version is truly delicious...
[I have this beautiful face. No matter what style I wear, I'm incredibly charming. With long hair, I'm a true beauty. My blue-black eyes are like beautiful gems. My husband is truly handsome...]
…
Bai Bei didn't need to watch the rest of the story, as he knew what would happen. His adoptive mother explained the situation to her lover in advance and took him home after work. That was also the first time he and Shi Yu met in real life.
That year, Shi Yu was still in the first grade of junior high school. After finally getting out of school, he returned home and heard his parents say they were going to adopt a child. Then he would have a brother, and the sky fell on his face.
Shi Yu glared at the person in front of him with dissatisfaction when he saw his adoptive brother's only child appear out of nowhere. At this time, Bai Bei's memory was cleared, and he didn't know how to pretend to have basic human reactions, so he stared at him without blinking.
Shi Yu thought he was provoking her and didn't think of it as an inhuman weird phenomenon at all. Later, the adoptive parents took Bai Bei away as naturally as possible.
Now that I think about it, Shi Yu was too careless. But it might also be because he was still young. He never thought that there would be a guy in his family who was not a normal human being, and his parents knew this.
When Shi Yu grew up, Bai Bei had successfully disguised himself as an ordinary person and successfully deceived everyone around him. Even his closest brother did not notice anything unusual.
After leaving the re-enacted scene, Bai Bei opened his eyes, and what he saw was still a room full of dolls. Novi stood in front of him, looking at him without blinking.
Bo Bei had no expression on his face: "What are you doing?"
Novi waved his hand. "Nothing much, but how did you manage to be so human? Even unconscious, you're still breathing and your heartbeat isn't stopping. It's amazing."
Bai Bei: “…”
He remembered something else and avoided the topic, saying, "The one pushing for the fusion of the two worlds is the incarnation of the consciousness of the world of Kwaidan, right? It's using Yan, and you can't stop it."
Bai Bei paused at this point. As for the early part of his memory, he had just become familiar with the language, so he did not have a deep impression of what his adoptive mother said. He only remembered it after watching the re-enactment scene.
In that case...the player called Yan should be his mother.
"Is she still here? The player named Yan." Bai Bei didn't know how to address her, nor did he know how to react. It seemed that no matter what he did, it would be sour.
Seeing his reaction, Novi knew that Bobei had already understood most of the situation, so he raised his hand and pointed out the window before saying, "She has always been here, but no one can see her unless she wishes."
"She's been watching you."
She is indeed alive, but she is probably no longer human, and she is not a conventional ghost story. Instead, she is the first human to transform into a ghost story while still having consciousness.
In the world of Kwaidan, there is of course no normal way of birth like in human society. Life that has not yet been born is also a part of her, or it may exist as a regular, independent conscious entity, but it cannot be a human being.
So a young man with the same appearance as her appeared.
"You said no one can see her. Is it because of the world's illusory consciousness?" Bai Bei felt that the consciousness probably couldn't trap her. Such a special case could completely override all rules. "Or is it her own will?"
Novi wasn't quite sure: "It seems the transformation has caused her to become unstable, so she doesn't want to see anything else."
"If you want to see her, it's very simple. Just use that key. After reality was rewound to the point six years ago, the key is back in your hands, isn't it?"
Hearing this, Bai Bei calmly shook his head to indicate that this was not the case: "It's not with me. I gave the key to Shi Yu on the day I was about to come back."
The curve of Novi's lips froze for a moment, as if he couldn't quite understand what Bai Bei said. After a brief pause, he spoke again, his originally gentle tone becoming somewhat distorted: "You left the key in reality?!"
"Why are you so surprised?" Bai Bei felt that this was probably the most anthropomorphic Novi had ever been. He didn't react much. "Since I made the key, making another one shouldn't be a problem."
Novi looked furious. "How can it be that simple? What do you think the key is made of? You made the key using your previous memories!"
Bai Bei, on the other hand, was more like the fake person. He nodded and said, "It is indeed something I can do."
Novi: “…”
Novi: "Are you in a good mood?"
"There's no way. I can't go back now." Even though Bo Bei is not restricted, he still needs a medium to travel between the two worlds. "I'll just wait until the Surveillance Bureau comes to reality. I can't solve these problems all at once anyway."
The key is with Shi Yu, and the anchor point will not run away, so landing will not be a problem.
"Originally, I was planning to wait for the Surveillance Bureau to arrive before looking for a solution. Besides, if I don't give the key to Shi Yu, I won't have this anchor point. No matter what, I have to return to the world of ghost stories."
After Bai Bei finished speaking, he saw that Novi was still thinking, so he simply opened the door and left. From the surface, the building of the Surveillance Bureau looked no different from an ordinary high-rise building, but the interior was not used as an office space like a normal company.
Basically, they have common entertainment venues, such as tea rooms, handcraft shops, private cinemas, video game arcades, etc. The top floor is the bedroom. Although they don’t need to sleep at all, they still pretend to be human.
Bai Bei turned the corner and stepped on the stairs. He was about to go upstairs when a transparent screen in the style of a dialog box suddenly jumped in front of him.
It is accurate news.
The panel was not with him, so he could not receive messages in the private channel. Bai Bei looked down and saw that it was the dialogue interface he used to reply to players in the copy system of the ghost story game. In most cases, he sent text messages.
Only in occasional special circumstances will Bai Bei contact the player directly, but his voice is also a debugged mechanical sound that will not reveal the connection between Fei Yu and Fei.
Bai Bei focused his attention on the specific content of the conversation.
[Is the nominal copy system fun? ]
[Who said I was too lazy to change my name? The first character of someone's two IDs has the same pronunciation :)]
Bai Bei was not surprised that Shen Que discovered his identity. He did not reply to the message, and the person on the other end soon sent a new message.
Xiaoyu found out about you and Fei a few days ago, and that the Operations Department is trying to poach you again. He didn't refuse this time and is considering whether to join.
Bai Bei replied: [It doesn't matter, let him come in if he wants to, but you were discovered too?]
Chen Que: [Now that you've exposed me, how can I not reveal my identity?]
Chen Que: [So when will you come back? You've really been gone for over two years? I won't be able to explain myself if Shi Yu cries to death.]
Feiyu: [Maybe I’ll come back early, I’m not sure]
He swiped the screen away and went upstairs.
The aroma of the incense is light and appropriate, and the low-key and elegant decoration of the hall is very romantic. A tall female figure sits in front of the table where the mixing equipment is placed. She lowers her eyes, and her focused profile is quiet and cold.
The perfume had been prepared and she put it into a bottle of exquisite texture. Then she looked up at Bai Bei. He was standing in front of the perfume wall where various spices were displayed. It seemed that he had suddenly decided to mix a bottle as well.
"Don't choose these three." The woman raised an eyebrow at the three scents in his hand, and said with interest, her lips curled, "If you don't want to smell like toilet cleaner."
Bai Bei is not a stubborn person, and he doesn't want to smell the toilet cleaner, so he put it back quietly.
"Don't you like woody notes? These ones look good together, why not try them?" The man on the other side of the spice wall came over and shook the fragrance bottle in his hand.
He looked so similar to Novi that they seemed to be cut from the same mold, but with a more youthful and assertive air. His short blond hair looked even lighter under the lighting. Bai Bei stared at his hair for a while before asking, "Did you get a haircut?"
"Yes, I just had it cut two days ago. I told you you could see it, but Novi didn't believe it." Nochi was so proud that his golden hair hung down in a proud arc.
Sui Jingye, who was sitting at the edge of the stage, propped her chin up with her hand. She mocked him lazily, "It's just a little bit shorter. Normally, human eyes wouldn't be able to detect it. If you hadn't run into Bai Bei, you would have been laughed at by Novi."
Bai Bei nodded in support. Facing Nuoqi's resentful look, he calmly rubbed the head of the golden retriever next to him, which was half a head taller than him.
"Are you really going to stay here for almost three years?" Sui Jingye tilted her head after hearing what Novi said. "Why? I originally thought you wouldn't care."
Bai Bei didn't answer. Even if he explained the reason, Sui Jingye still wouldn't understand. So he just asked, "Where's the system?"
When he just left the scene, he called out to the system several times but there was no response. He guessed that this guy must have seen that there was no problem on his side, so he logged off early and went back to playing games.
"In that room, it just mixed a bottle and took it away. It should be playing games or watching a movie." Nochi pointed to the room in the corridor on the left.
Originally, the Monitoring Bureau was responsible for observing the stability of the dungeon in real time, but now that the Ghost Story game is completely shut down and no players are entering, the Ghost Story is not so easy to collapse, so there is no need to do this anymore.
Bai Bei walked to the door and raised his hand to knock on it.
