Happy cooperation
Inside the training camp building, Ding Can was sitting at the head of the bed, holding the short flute given to him by Ji Qu.
Previously, she had wondered whether the short flute could be brought back to the dormitory. After all, it was an item in the copy, and the personal belongings carried in the copy would disappear when returning to the building.
Even the injuries he had just suffered were now gone without a trace.
I originally guessed that the flute would not reappear on me until I entered the dungeon again.
Unexpectedly, it was feasible. As a ghost messenger, Ji Qu had abilities that ordinary people did not have. The musical instrument he carried with him all year round was probably also contaminated with an unusual aura, which allowed him to break through the system's screening conditions and return with her.
By exploiting this loophole, if certain objects are frequently brought back from the dungeon, the abnormal medium will be affected when the objects travel through different time and space multiple times.
Dripping water wears away a stone. After a certain number of times, it may have unpredictable effects on the system itself.
But this is just my inner guess and needs more verification.
As for this flute, apart from the warm feel when it was on the snowy mountain, it felt very cold. Now at this suitable temperature, it feels even more different.
The surface of the jade was lustrous and smooth. Ding Can didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt inexplicably at ease. Perhaps this was the value of the rare white jade.
Although she had promised Ji Qu not to blow the horn unless it was a dangerous situation, she still wanted to give it a try in the training camp.
Picking up the short flute with one hand, she placed one hole between her lips and blew softly. She was initially attracted by the sound, and finally emitted a faint breathy sound.
I can't make any sound by blowing it... Ding Can thought about the flute-blowing method he had seen before, pressed a few other holes, and tried hard again, and finally there was a sharp sound.
He just blew a few times, but no strange phenomena appeared.
Either the other party did not hear it, or was obstructed and heard it but was unable to follow the sound of the flute to this place.
No matter what the situation is, we will have to wait until the next time we enter the dungeon and call him over to find out.
Never mind, there’s no point in thinking too much, I might as well go check on other people first.
Ding Can stood up and walked to the door. As soon as he pushed it open, he saw three pairs of eyes staring at him outside the door, and Gao Wenwen even raised his arms in the air.
Shi Yan was obviously relieved, and Xia Jialian's brows also relaxed slightly.
"I was so scared. I thought you failed to pass the dungeon and left the camp early." Gao Wenwen felt relieved to see that she was fine, and then he put down his hand.
Ding Can smiled and said, "Is everything going well for you all?"
Seeing the three of them again, she actually felt like she was back home for the first time in a long time.
Shi Yan stepped forward, put his arm around her upper body and patted her shoulder: "Of course it went smoothly, otherwise how could I appear in front of you."
Xia Jialian, who had been silent behind him, finally spoke up: "They were worried because they saw you hadn't come out yet."
No matter how long the time passes in the dungeon, as long as they pass it, they will return to the training camp at 5 pm.
The three of them met in the corridor and gathered together, only to find that Ding Can had not come out yet.
Only the students themselves can open the door of their rooms, and they can't do it even if they are anxious. Fortunately, when Gao Wenwen was about to knock down the door, she came out first.
"I was delayed because of this." Ding Can took out the white jade flute and showed it to them.
Gao Wenwen's eyes widened. "Where did you get this flute? Did you bring it out from the dungeon?"
Ding Can nodded: "That's right, and you will never guess who gave it to me."
Xia Jialian raised her eyelids and asked, "Is he someone we know?"
"Yes, I met Ji Qu in the dungeon."
Shi Yan asked in surprise: "That ice face?"
Ding Can told the three of them everything that happened in the copy, and also raised his own doubts.
Since the NPCs in the dungeon can travel between multiple locations in some way, they, as players, may also have such ability.
With time, it won't be wishful thinking to uncover the secrets and break into the system. Maybe we won't have to wait until the 21-day test is over before we can leave here.
"I'm going to chat with an old friend."
After Ding Can finished summarizing his diary, he thought about going downstairs to find the dormitory manager Yu Fu.
I casually showed the white jade flute in front of him to see how he would react.
Last time we only communicated through the chat interface on the phone, and Yu Fu was socially anxious and didn't want to tell me anything, so I had to come to his house in person.
Not being lucky enough to get into the dormitory office again, she started making noise outside to harass people, to see who would give in first.
While going downstairs in the teleportation cabin, she first sent a few messages to Yu Fu, indicating that she was about to reach the door.
As expected, he didn't respond at all.
Standing half a step in front of the silver metal wall, she gave Yu Fu an ultimatum.
[If you don’t reply to me, I’ll really smash the door! ]
The chat interface is quiet and no one is paying attention to me.
Ding Can breathed a sigh of relief. Well, there was always fighting and killing in the dungeon, but I haven't had much exercise here.
She rolled up her sleeves to her forearms and confirmed that it was the same wall she had faced when she entered the dormitory management office last time before she moved with confidence.
He curled up a few fingers, clenched his fist into the air, and smashed it heavily against the wall.
Ding Can was mentally prepared for the pain in his palms, and slammed his fists against the cold wall.
The expected reaction force did not come, but the door of the dormitory management office opened in front of her again.
She pushed the door again and fell forward uncontrollably. She stumbled and managed to stop herself and stand firm.
The doors closed at the back at the same time, and Ding Can saw Yu Fu, who was startled by him again and stood up from his chair.
Yu Fu was still holding the phone, and from this angle she could just see the content on the screen, which was the chat interface with herself.
As expected, I saw my own message. This socially phobic guy just looked at it and didn't even reply.
"You, how could you still come in..." Yu Fu stretched out a finger, his fingertips still trembling slightly.
He had been with several classes of students here and this had never happened before. However, it happened twice to this girl named Ding Can.
Ding Can pursed his lips into a line. "You're an internal employee and you don't know, so how should I know? And, you clearly have your phone, so why don't you reply to my message?"
Even she felt strange. Could it be that these two times in a row were not accidental? Could she really come and go here at will?
Yu Fu sighed almost inaudibly and tried to change the subject, "I was actually working on my computer and just saw the message. I was just thinking of replying to you, but I didn't expect you to show up first."
"Oh, really?" Ding Can didn't believe him at all. "I have something to do. I need to go out for a while."
So Yu Fu watched her quickly turn around and walk out the door, and then push the door open and walk in the next second. She tried twice before coming back to him.
"As expected, I am not restricted here." Ding Can nodded confidently.
Yu Fu stared at the computer screen glowing with blue light for a long time, thinking about whether to report the matter.
Although he works as a dormitory manager and is an employee in the training camp, he is not very familiar with other colleagues.
Normally, performance reports are uploaded directly via computer, and there is little opportunity for mutual communication.
Occasionally, they would meet due to overlapping duties, but he felt that the people who came were difficult to get along with and he could never say more than a few words. If this student's problem was reported, someone would definitely be sent to investigate.
At that time, you will have to spend time and energy to socialize with a group of people you may not know.
It would be better to wait a little longer. If there is only this one person, it will be easier to deal with. As long as she leaves the camp early or leaves after the camp is closed, there will be no more trouble.
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze back and said, "Tell me, what is it that brings you to me this time? Let me be clear, I cannot answer any questions that fall within the scope of job confidentiality."
Ding Can's brows relaxed when he heard this. This is what a smart person is like.
Instead of always being chased by yourself, it is better to cooperate and communicate more.
"I just accidentally brought something back from the dungeon, and I wanted to ask you if this has ever happened to any of your previous students."
Yu Fu was a little surprised: "What did you bring?"
In his opinion, the existence of the copy is nothing more than an illusion compared to the environment of the training camp building, a constructed virtual world.
Since it is not real, the items that appear in the copy are not real objects.
It is equivalent to a piece of data being transformed into an entity and brought out.
Ding Can took out the white jade flute and said, "It's a flute. I originally put it in my arms because I thought it looked pretty. I didn't expect that after I came back, it was still on me."
"Can I see it?"
"Of course." Ding Can felt that he was not the kind of person who would steal something and not return it.
Yu Fu placed the flute in his palm and looked at it several times. Apart from the fact that it looked like a valuable item, there didn't seem to be anything special about it.
He shook his head. "I can't really explain why. To be honest, I haven't been exposed to the core secrets of the training camp. For as long as I can remember, I've been the dorm manager of this building."
This time it was Ding Can who was surprised: "What about your previous memories? Where did they come from? Can't you remember them at all?"
I never thought that Yu Fu was also forcibly brought into the training camp through some means.
She had a guess in her mind, could it be that Yu Fu was just an ordinary person somewhere in the world, but their destinies were different, she was given the identity of a student, and Yu Fu was arranged to be a dormitory manager.
"I have no recollection of it. I've tried to uncover the secret of my identity, but I've been unsuccessful. The intranet in the monitoring room is complex, and I've been trying to decipher it to find more information."
Ding Can thought of Xia Jialian: "I have a friend who is proficient in network technology. Maybe he can help you. However, he can't come in. I can use my phone to record your problem and try to pass it on. We can think of a solution together."
"Are you willing to help me?" Yu Fu looked up at her, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face, which looked like a boy next door.
Ding Can's expression was particularly cold against the backdrop of the blue electronic screen. "We can consider it as helping each other. After all, I also have many doubts about this training camp."
"Then let's start now." Yu Fu smiled with a relaxed look.
It was completely different from his usual state, with a mischievous look in his eyes that showed he was very playful.
After meeting this person, it was the first time she saw him look so comfortable. His thin red lips and dark thick eyebrows intertwined in Ding Can's eyes, and she found it quite interesting.
Just extend your hand and say, "Happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation~" Yu Fu also raised his hand and clasped his hand with Ding Can's.
