Chapter 202 Genius Kindergarten (Fifteen)
Jie Fangcheng suddenly understood.
That makes sense! Why didn't he think of that?
But then a problem arose before Fang Cheng.
It is possible to change parents, but who should be changed?
Thinking of this, Jie Fangcheng's gaze unconsciously turned to Zhang Siquan.
This kid... doesn't want to be his own parent, right?
Jie Fangcheng's hands were itching.
Zhang Siquan is so smart. When Jie Fangcheng looked at him like that, Zhang Siquan immediately understood what he was thinking.
Rarely, Zhang Siquan was silent at this moment.
He said, "I suggest that your parents should be NPCs from your own copy, rather than people from our small world. This is the safest way. Also... at my age now, I probably can't go through the adoption procedures."
"..." Jie Fangcheng said nothing.
After Zhang Siquan finished his explanation, there was no need for Jie Fangcheng to continue asking questions. He first gave an NPC who was suitable to be a parent.
"Perhaps you have talked to the guard at your kindergarten?"
"ah?"
The guards at the Genius Kindergarten are very distinctive. They are all old men in their 50s or 60s who look frail.
"According to the regulations, the age difference between the adopter and the adoptee must be more than 40 years, and the adopter must have fixed assets. There are also some other regulations, such as no criminal record. Coincidentally, the three guards of the Genius Kindergarten all meet the adoption criteria."
Three.
It seems that in addition to the way of passing the level that Liu Feiyao considered, the guard's way of passing the level is another way of passing the level. However, this way of passing the level has a limited number of places, and the prerequisite is also relatively harsh: the original parents must die for the player to be eligible for adoption.
A normal player wouldn't beat the parents so badly that they have to flee to another province for safety, right?
As if knowing what Jie Fangcheng was thinking, Zhang Siquan had already explained it in advance.
"Of course, this plan is not so easy to implement, but it does not mean that it can only be used when the force value reaches the standard. For example, Jie Jianye is a small employee of the company. If his boss can send him to work in another province at this time, he will disappear at the border, and the player can achieve the same goal."
It is indeed a method, but Jie Fangcheng is very sincere: "I think this method is much more difficult than beating them to death."
Zhang Siquan couldn't help but smile: "How about this, I'll go to your kindergarten at noon tomorrow and take you and your friend to meet the guard first? You can chat and then go to handle the formalities in the afternoon."
Zhang Siquan did not explain why he was so familiar with the security guard, and Jie Fangcheng did not ask.
He understood. This is why they are smart people. If they want to establish a good relationship with any NPC, they can do so quickly.
Zhang Daoan also demonstrated this skill in the Gaoji Academy copy.
It was getting late, so Jie Fangcheng stood up.
"How about this for now? We can talk later if there's anything else?"
"OK."
"See you later."
"See you later."
Not long after Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming left, the screen of Zhang Siquan's mobile phone lit up.
Zhang Siquan held the water cup in one hand, tilted his head back and drank the water, while with the other hand he clicked on the phone on the table.
That is a new message.
"According to our reporter, at 6:00 pm, a fire broke out in the Bianjie KTV in Tianyue Building on Jiangyan Road. As of the time of this report, the fire has been put out and one person was injured or killed. It is reported that the cause of the fire may be a cigarette butt that was not extinguished in time..."
Zhang Siquan lowered his eyes and looked, and soon he received the second message.
"Did you do this?"
——"Zhang Daoan?"
.
After Xie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming left "Quansi Studio", they wanted to return to the familiar hotel.
Hotels that do not require ID cards are hard to find and are expensive. Jie Fangcheng kept spending money. The money he got from Zhan Xiaoming's parents was used for taxis and barbecues in the past two days, and there was not much left.
At this time, Jie Fangcheng tried to take out the money for a long time but failed. He could only leave the hotel with Zhan Xiaoming awkwardly.
"What should I do, Brother Jie?"
Jie Fangcheng was so skilled in making people suspect that this was his job: "Let's go to the hardware store and see if we have any money."
When they arrived at the hardware store, they were both stunned.
With the death of Zhan Xiaoming's parent, not only his identity was reclaimed, but his shop was also reclaimed.
The original hardware store is now empty, with an old rental advertisement posted at the door.
Zhan Xiaoming didn't know what happened yet, so he quickly pulled the owner of the barbecue stall and asked, "Uncle, why is my store gone?"
"What do you mean your store?" The barbecue stall owner recognized the two children in the Genius Kindergarten uniforms. After all, the two children should still like to eat cheese sticks at such a young age, but they were already sitting in front of the barbecue stall chatting yesterday. "This store has been empty for many years. How can it be your store?"
"It's been vacant for many years?" Jie Fangcheng also leaned over to ask, "Such a good location, why can't it be rented out?"
"Someone died there and it was even on TV." The barbecue stall owner said briefly and went back to work.
Jie Fangcheng and the other person looked at each other.
"Come to my house again?" said Jie Fangcheng.
"good."
The two took a taxi back to the dilapidated residential area. As soon as they entered the corridor, they heard loud crying and shouting.
After reaching the third floor, I found that the kind-looking parents on the third floor were kneeling on the ground, holding their heads and crying, cursing something while crying, as if their child had attended a birthday party and died.
Because Zhang Siquan had walked out of this family before, Jie Fangcheng took a few more glances when he passed by.
"What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll kill you!!"
Although his tone was so unpleasant, it was also caused by a reason. Jie Fangcheng withdrew his gaze and said nothing.
He took Zhan Xiaoming with him, and after they walked up to the fourth floor, they found that the room on the fourth floor was also empty. The lock was rotten, and cold and damp air seeped out from the door. It was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
The furniture was smashed and rotten, there was a large pool of old blood on the sofa inside the door, and the blood spots on the wall had grown mold. It was definitely a crime scene.
"Has there been a murder here?"
So could it be that their NPC identities are changes from the identities of the original dead indigenous people?
It was obviously not appropriate to question the neighbor downstairs at this time. When Jie Fangcheng walked downstairs, he happened to meet an elderly couple who were taking a walk and were whispering to each other.
Jie Fangcheng had sharp ears and could hear that they were probably talking about the family on the third floor.
The child is in his second year of high school. He is not a good person at ordinary times. He steals things and sometimes comes out in the middle of the night to squat on the side of the road and harass little girls passing by.
But he is a minor, and even if he is caught, he will just be given a warning and released. On the contrary, if you dare to report the case, the seemingly kind couple will block the door of other people's houses and curse them, and over time no one dares to get involved in this mess.
Zhan Xiaoming ran over to ask a few questions and then came back shaking his head: "Just like the hardware store, someone died in the room and no one has lived there since."
what to do?
This made Jie Fangcheng think of seeking external help again.
But although Zhang Siquan seems easy to talk to, their current relationship... wait.
Xie Fangcheng suddenly thought of another question.
After the NPC dies, the memory of the NPC by the people around him will disappear.
But just now, Zhang Siquan...why did he still remember Jie Jianye and the others?
.
Zhang Siquan, who puzzled Jie Fangcheng to no end, had just returned home. After finishing his dinner, he sat in front of the computer desk in the extremely spacious and empty room, his fingers flying on the keyboard. Soon, he finished a document.
He saved the document and stood up, then suddenly his vision blurred.
He had obviously experienced this kind of scene countless times. He skillfully supported the table with his hands to ensure that he could fall into the chair when he fainted.
Then, the scene in front of me changed.
In front of Zhang Siquan, it was no longer an empty room... but a city.
No, maybe that can't be called a city.
The city was exceptionally quiet and deserted, looking bizarre against the colorful sky behind it that looked like an oil painting.
Right in the middle of the city is none other than an amusement park with a huge Ferris wheel running slowly, creating a sense of absurd romance.
This city is very strange. It has no urban planning, only buildings crowded together, as if a novice builder had piled all the houses together without knowing it. The architectural style is also extremely chaotic, and even the construction age does not seem to be uniform.
For example, next to a magnificent Greek-style temple building, there is a Chinese-style building with a plaque that reads "Fulai Inn". At the entrance of a high school that seems to cover a large area, opposite a stone tablet engraved with the words "Grades are everything for students" is an old stage.
Moreover, he could enter some of these buildings, and the surrounding environment looked familiar after entering, but there were some that he could not enter, and those buildings were relatively unfamiliar to him.
Zhang Siquan... No, he is not actually Zhang Siquan, and of course, he is not Zhang Daoan either.
Because he is not a native of this world.
When did you come into this world? A month ago? Two months ago?
He can't remember.
He only remembered that suddenly one day, he was looking at the newspaper beside him and doubts arose in his heart.
——Am I really “Zhang Daoan”?
The previous "Zhang Daoan" was also very smart, but this kind of intelligence was like an AI with a set program flow.
He is gentle and polite in this world and is considered a good student in the eyes of outsiders.
He also discovered that there were strange things in this world, but like the people around him whose memories were altered, he lived his life step by step, not trying to figure out what was behind those things, and at most just recording them.
Until "Zhang Siquan" arrived——
Of course this identity is fake. There is indeed a person named "Zhang Siquan", but this person has mysteriously disappeared.
Now he doesn't know who he really is, but it is obvious that the person living in the body named "Zhang Daoan" is neither Zhang Daoan nor Zhang Siquan.
And just as he began to question who "himself" was, this city suddenly appeared in his mind.
The city was unfamiliar, but "Zhang Siquan" seemed to have seen it before.
In this space which he named "Thinking City", he could see ten miles in one step, could see tiny black dots as big as ants, or could overlook the entire city while standing on the ground.
He seemed to be the master of this city.
The surrounding city was not static either. Sometimes when he passed by, voices would suddenly be heard in the old rooms, but they were generally intermittent, like the playback of some damaged memories.
This kind of memory playback is aimless and often appears suddenly. It may be a short syllable or a fleeting picture. It is disorganized and completely unconnected.
Beyond the colorful oil painting-like sky, there are a lot of fragmented things that look like data streams.
Where is this place, how did he get here, and does it have anything to do with who he is... He thought about these questions for a long time, but had no answers.
Every time he entered the mind space, the timing was random, and every time what he saw and heard was different. He didn't know what would happen this time.
"Very impressive, kid."
Zhang Siquan turned his head suddenly.
There was an empty street in front of him, but Zhang Siquan seemed to see a room at this moment.
A simple room with many books, with a half-read book on the table.
He was clearly standing here, but at this moment, he seemed to be sitting on a chair in front of the table.
What is in front of you? Who is speaking?
"Zhang Siquan" wanted to see clearly, but there seemed to be a black mist in front of his eyes, covering the other person's face.
Who is it?
At this moment, Zhang Siquan, who was sitting in his seat, smelled a very faint scent that could only be smelled when one got close.
Although he clearly had no such knowledge, at this moment, Zhang Siquan's mind still accurately showed where the smell came from.
…In the underworld, by the Nether River, the ground is covered with white ghost grass.
No, it’s not just the ghost grass, there’s also... the smell of red spider lily.
He seemed to be very familiar with the place, as if he had been to that river a long, long time ago.
He knew there was a kind of black fish in the river... Actually, this kind of fish is actually white. Before it was tainted with any resentment, the white fish was a natural "recorder" and "prophet". They were transformed from..., loyal and pious, and before... collapse, they voluntarily...
My head hurts like crazy.
The surrounding city trembled slightly as his thoughts became unstable. "Zhang Siquan" wanted to take a few deep breaths and calm down quickly.
But for some reason, it seemed as if there were countless noisy voices saying something, and these voices seemed to be engraved deep in his soul.
What is it?
Just then, he felt a slight chill on his forehead.
Someone gently touched his brow, and a warm, familiar golden light flashed before his eyes.
"Live a good life."
The person on the other side said this with a smile.
"Zhang Siquan" suddenly opened his eyes.
There was no city or river in front of him. The computer screen in front of him reflected a faint white light.
He is still living in this world, not even knowing who he is.
"Zhang Siquan" sat motionless on the chair. After a while, he stretched out his hand and gently touched his eyebrows.
.
The lights are coming on.
Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming squatted on the curb because they had no money.
Finally, Jie Fangcheng hammered his palm with his right hand: "Got it! We can go borrow money!"
To be honest, when Zhan Xiaoming heard Jie Fangcheng say the word "borrow money", he was in a trance for a moment, and didn't think much about it. He asked back on the spot: "Borrow money? Then how are we going to pay it back?"
Both of them are kindergarten kids... No matter how old they are actually, at least that's how it looks on the surface.
In this situation, not to mention working, you can't even buy a ticket to travel far away.
How can I pay back the money I borrowed from others?
Jie Fangcheng waved his hand and said, "Pay back the money? It depends on your fate."
Zhan Xiaoming: “…”
Zhan Xiaoming understood.
Don't make the story of robbing money sound so roundabout! !
But who is Brother Jie going to rob?
Zhan Xiaoming's gaze has shifted to the road.
He was also generous. When Jie Fangcheng said he wanted to rob money... er, borrow money, he immediately started looking for an NPC who looked rich and suitable to borrow money from.
But it was obvious that Jie Fangcheng had no interest in the people coming and going on the street. He already had a target in mind at first sight.
Jie Fangcheng stood up and identified the direction.
"This way."
He led the way in front, and Zhan Xiaoming followed obediently behind.
The two of them passed through countless traffic lights, and Zhan Xiaoming felt his legs were weak from walking. Jie Fangcheng finally stopped in front of an ordinary-looking residential area.
Zhan Xiaoming raised his head and looked carefully at the community in front of him.
Wealthy neighborhood.
The name sounds very luxurious, but judging from the architecture, this is the kind of neighborhood where ordinary working-class people live!
Brother Jie traveled so far just to rob in such an ordinary place? No way?
Jie Fangcheng did not explain, but led the way. He had a clear goal and soon arrived in front of a building. After pressing the elevator, Zhan Xiaoming was still asking: "Brother Jie, we have come here through mountains and rivers to rob... uh, to borrow money, do you have a goal?"
"yes."
"So amazing! Is he a hidden rich man?" Zhan Xiaoming excitedly.
Xie Fangcheng thought: "I don't know, but it shouldn't be that serious, right?"
Not really?
Just when Zhan Xiaoming was still thinking seriously about what he meant, Jie Fangcheng turned around and asked, "Do you want to go with me?"
"Ah?" Zhan Xiaoming was stunned, as if he had misunderstood.
He thought that Jie Fangcheng saw him as a simple person because he was usually silly, and thought he was a bad person, so he didn't want to be corrupted by doing things like robbery.
Zhan Xiaoming blushed as he imagined it: "Hey, Brother Jie, don't look at me as innocent. I have been through training and played in a simulation dungeon. It's robbery! This is the first time I've done this, but don't worry, I'll rob anyone you want! I'll keep watch for you!"
"Really? Are you so confident?" As they were talking, the two of them walked to the door of room 1414, and Jie Fangcheng knocked on the door.
Soon, a familiar female voice was heard from the door.
"Who is it?"
Then the door opened.
The moment Zhan Xiaoming saw the person in the door, he immediately "whoosh" like a gopher, crouched down, and scurried back to the corner.
Inside the door, the smile on Teacher Liu's face froze as he opened the door.
"Hi!" Xie Fangcheng waved and greeted her, then at the moment when Teacher Liu wanted to close the door, he opened the door and walked in.
I have to say that the soundproofing effect of the doors in this community is quite good. Zhan Xiaoming was waiting at the corner in fear, but he couldn't hear a word.
Although Jie Fangcheng is very powerful, second-generation gamers like Zhan Xiaoming will naturally develop a sense of awe for the small BOSSes in the dungeons as they complete more simulated dungeons.
At this moment, Jie Fangcheng is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth... uh, a wolf entering... uh...
Zhan Xiaoming is stuck.
Fortunately, the door opened after a while.
As Jie Fangcheng walked out, he was still talking to the person inside the door: "Don't send me off."
With a bang, as soon as he walked out of the door, the door closed right beside him, obviously there was no intention to see him off.
Jie Fangcheng didn't care. He just waved the wallet in his hand towards Zhan Xiaoming.
"I'm leaving."
Zhan Xiaoming: “…”
Is this really a player?
Why has no one mentioned on the forum that you can rob the BOSS when you have no money?
After arriving at the elevator, Zhan Xiaoming couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jie, you are so skilled. Have you played similar games before?"
"Oh, I have."
Zhan Xiaoming: "You were like this...like this in the dungeon before..."
Arrogant?
Jie Fangcheng sighed: "I really wasn't so reserved before."
This was just someone else's little world, and he couldn't tell who was worth dying for - although it looked like this teacher NPC would be defeated if he wasn't beaten to death, Jie Fangcheng wouldn't be that unreasonable.
Besides, this is not his little world and he is not qualified to judge.
He will only take action if the other party is really looking for death.
Zhan Xiaoming: …
The two returned to the hotel and stayed for one night.
Soon, the next day arrived.
Facing the morning breeze, a new day begins at the Genius Kindergarten.
When Jie Fangcheng and the other person arrived at school, Liu Feiyao and three other players who had been praised yesterday were gathered together and chatting. Liu Feiyao looked in good spirits, but Han Ruixing and the other person, who had also been praised by the teacher yesterday, did not look very happy at this moment.
Seeing Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming coming to the classroom, Liu Feiyao walked over and quickly talked to them about what happened after they returned home yesterday.
"We have received a new mission." Liu Feiyao said, "My parents said that they will give me a small test in three days. If I can pass this small test, it should mean that I have been recognized by my parents."
"Small test?" Jie Fangcheng got a headache when he heard the word "test". At this moment, he was extremely glad that he had chosen a completely different way to pass the test. "Did you tell me what the test was about?"
Liu Feiyao shook her head: "No one said that, but Ruixing, Xiaodong and I discussed it with each other. We have to learn some other knowledge every night after returning home. It is possible that we will be tested in this area."
This is also the reason why Han Ruixing and the other person have ugly expressions.
They both performed very well after returning home on the first day. They completed the study tasks too easily in the evening. As a result, when they found out they would have a quiz last night, they felt something was not good. So they thought about procrastinating a bit and not learning the things their parents assigned them too quickly.
But at this time, both parents expressed dissatisfaction with their learning speed.
"You studied very hard yesterday, what happened today?" The parents said meaningfully, "Don't be complacent just because the teacher praised you once, you need to study hard, I know your ability."
There was no other choice, the two could only finish their study quickly again yesterday, and then go to bed, without a sleepless night.
They have already felt that the difficulty is relatively low and the content is relatively less on the first day of study.
Obviously, the difficulty and amount of learning content increased last night.
What should I do?
Both of them were almost certain that their exams in three days would be very difficult. Would they be able to pass them successfully?
It was not until then that the two realized that Liu Feiyao was indeed a capable girl. Without any warning, she had been holding back her strength on the first night and pretending to have difficulty learning.
Therefore, the study tasks assigned to her by her parents last night were very easy, because the "parents" knew her "strength" and did not give her overly demanding task goals.
This girl is really... amazing.
Liu Feiyao herself didn't think anything of it.
In such a dangerous dungeon, it is normal for a meticulous and intelligent player to retain his strength and not expose his limits too early.
Her idea of how to pass the game is already very clear.
Liu Feiyao is confident that she can get praise from Teacher Liu today.
Although she still didn't know which classmates in the class were ghosts, she also didn't know what kind of difficulties she would face in the hide-and-seek game at noon.
But it doesn't matter.
Liu Feiyao's eyes were bright and she not only quickly sorted out her own way to pass the level, but before Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming came, she had even re-planned the way to pass the level for Han Ruixing and Pei Xiaodong.
If you know you want to clear the dungeon, the quiz on the third day is crucial.
Liu Feiyao had already read the study materials for the two of them. They were elementary school content and were not difficult for adults.
The only difficult part is Chinese. Some of the Chinese knowledge in this world is different from that in their original world, but the two can take advantage of the lunch time to look for it on the bookshelf in the lounge.
Although Liu Feiyao was not sure—
"But since this is a dungeon, there must be some skills and logic to clear it. The knowledge that the 'parents' asked us to learn can be found on the bookshelf in the kindergarten. I think this is reasonable."
Her analysis was correct. Han Ruixing and Han Ruixing had already decided to go to the bookshelf together to look through some books at noon.
As for Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming, Liu Feiyao also thought about it yesterday.
"Brother Jie, Brother Zhan, do you have any ideas for clearing the level now?"
Zhan Xiaoming was just about to describe their method of "changing parents", but when the words came to his lips, he thought of something and turned to look at Jie Fangcheng.
According to Zhang Siquan, there are only three NPCs in the guard room that can be adopted.
There are six players in total.
After all, it was Zhang Siquan who told Brother Jie this method. Whether he says it or not, and how he says it, of course we should listen to Brother Jie.
But Zhan Xiaoming's hesitation obviously caused Liu Feiyao to misunderstand.
This girl is really smart, she also thought of the same idea.
"Maybe... you can try to change the guardian?" Liu Feiyao was stunned after she finished speaking, looking at the expressions of the two people in front of her, "What's wrong?"
Jie Fangcheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You smart people are really amazing."
His words were not clear, but after Liu Feiyao thought about it, she actually understood.
She opened her eyes wide: "Has anyone else thought of this idea?"
"Um."
Or maybe that's not the case.
That was not a method that was "thought of", it was planned step by step by Zhang Siquan, which finally led them to the path of changing parents.
After all, he was the one who planned the situation, and this method of passing the level was just an addition to his plans.
You have to know that their ultimate goal is to erase the copy directly.
At this time, Jie Fangcheng and the other man looked very relaxed. Apparently, Liu Feiyao was still planning to "try changing the guardian". The "smart guy" who helped them make this choice was probably already prepared with both the candidate and the procedures.
Who could this person be?
Compared to Jie Fangcheng and the other four who had already figured out their own methods to pass the level, Zhou Yian was late. He hurried to the classroom just as the bell rang.
Moreover, Zhou Yian looked extremely tired, and he wanted to fall asleep immediately after arriving in the classroom.
Jie Fangcheng could vaguely smell a faint smell of blood.
Jie Fangcheng also had a bad impression of this player who locked other players in the first lounge and made them face danger.
But obviously, Zhou Yian no longer has the energy to think about what impression others have of him.
Teacher Liu did not criticize anyone yesterday. Zhou Yian originally thought that this was a great situation and that God was helping him.
But what he didn't expect was that when he got home, his "mother" questioned him sharply: "Is it a good thing that you haven't been criticized by the teacher? It's been two days in a row! The teacher praised so many students, why didn't he praise you! This shows that you are not doing well! Mom is very dissatisfied with your current learning status!"
He also received the task of taking a quiz in three days, but compared to Liu Feiyao's relaxed study and Han Ruixing and Pei Xiaodong's moderate study, he had already entered a state of over-studying yesterday.
"I think you're not studying hard enough. Otherwise, why didn't the teacher praise you when he praised other students? You must study hard, okay? In three days, I will come to test your study progress over the past few days!"
Zhou Yian had no choice but to recite six thick books until midnight. However, he could not help dozing off and was caught by his parents, who whipped him twice.
Zhou Yian's skin was torn and flesh was exposed after being beaten by the two sticks, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it.
He also had his calculations in mind. After all, the goal of passing the level was to not disobey the NPC, and to avoid fighting with the NPC if possible. So even though he was indeed capable and could beat the parent NPC with some effort, he still had to choose to swallow the humiliation.
After all, what's the point of being able to beat him? Look at that Jie Fangcheng, isn't he strong? His parents are gone!
Without his parents, how can he pass this dungeon? Isn't it still a dead end?
Thinking of Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming, Zhou Yian felt a little better.
No matter what, I should be better off than the two of them. At least I still have a way out!
When they arrived at the school, Zhou Yian, although he was in such a miserable state, still went to look at Jie Fangcheng and Zhan Xiaoming with sympathy.
Jie Fangcheng didn't notice it, but Zhan Xiaoming did receive the sympathetic look.
He was speechless: "Damn! What's wrong with Zhou Yian?"
He was the only one among all these players who didn't know how to complete the game, and he was looking at them sympathetically? Was he sick?
Jie Fangcheng also felt that Zhou Yian was weird, but when he saw how tired the boy looked, it was obvious that he must have memorized a lot of books last night. For a moment, he actually felt sympathy for him.
Then there was a feeling of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately the person endorsing it was not me.
"It is really important to make friends with smart people." Jie Fangcheng couldn't help but express his feelings.
