163 The Ninth Store
◎These are all details that don’t need to be paid attention to.◎
Lu Yao came out of the childhood cram school, not noticing a gas tank with its tail raised following behind her.
She returned to the DIY hut alone and clicked on the system that came with the Ghost Street game.
There was indeed a logout button at the bottom of the system page. Lu Yao clicked it, but there was no response.
She tried several times, but neither hand clicks nor voice input responded.
The logout button on the system page is selectable. When you click on it with your finger, the color of the logout column will become darker, but there will be no response after that.
According to Alfred’s judgment, there should be no problem with the game system of Ghost Street, but Lu Yao’s existence is too special, and the system cannot complete the real-person transmission.
I can't go to Tomorrow City. All the players on Ghost Street have logged out. Not long ago, even the big boss was killed. Lu Yao became the last living person on the street. He was lonely as snow.
Lu Yao pulled a chair and sat at the door of the DIY hut, thinking about how to continue to find all the ways.
Suddenly, there was a soft warmth at my feet, and a whirring sound like a small motorcycle. Lu Yao
lowered his eyes.
Er Xin was rubbing his head against her trouser legs with his tail raised. He was so cute with his round face and big eyes.
Lu Yao was a little surprised. She bent down to pick it up, and stood up to return the big gas tank to the childhood cram school: "Why are you here? Did you follow me?"
"Meow." Erxin rubbed Lu Yao's neck and snored.
Erxin, who had not controlled his weight for several months, was a solid pig. Lu Yao suddenly picked it up and almost didn't hold it. She bent down to hold it and weighed it, trying to hold it more steadily.
There were several silver bracelets scattered where Erxin had just crouched. Lu Yao felt a little strange because these bracelets were not on the ground when she came back.
Lu Yao half squatted down and picked up one. It was an activated ghost bracelet.
How did the customer's bracelet appear in the store?
Erxin kicked his short legs and jumped out of Luyao's arms. He lowered his head and picked up the bracelet on the ground. He walked to the operation classroom with familiarity. He looked back at Luyao after taking two steps.
Luyao gathered the remaining bracelets scattered on the ground, stood up and followed Erxin.
One person and one cat came to the clerk's lounge. Ghost bracelets were scattered all over the room.
Luyao picked up a few and checked them. They were all bracelets that had been sold.
Ghost bracelets are also real items. Players cannot take them out when they log out, so they are left in the game.
After the ghost bracelet was officially launched in the DIY house, some employees and customers told Luyao that they were worried that the ghost bracelet would be lost, so Luyao enchanted the bracelet with a magic that would prevent it from getting lost. All users can apply for the upgrade for free.
With the magic enchantment of not getting lost, if the bracelet is accidentally lost, the guest does not need to panic, the bracelet will find its way back in four hours at most.
When the player logs out of the game, the lost bracelet cannot find its owner because of the magic cast by Lu Yao, and all return to the DIY hut.
The DIY hut has sold thousands of ghost bracelets in total, and now they are all piled up in the lounge.
Lu Yao took out an unused storage box and packed them all up.
She estimated that the players of Ghost Street would never come back, and the bracelets that she had developed with great effort had lost their value. She didn't have the heart to deal with them for the time being, so she planned to put them away and put them in the warehouse.
Halfway through the packing, Lu Yao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and some of the bracelets must have been taken to Tomorrow City.
Several customers had customized storage rings in the store. The storage function was actually the same as that of Xiaoji's ring, but the rings customized by the customers were lower-end than Xiaoji's ring. After all, the price at that time was only more than 800 ghost coins.
Because the ghost bracelet was about to be launched online, Lu Yao felt that the storage functions of the storage ring and the ghost bracelet overlapped. As compensation, she used an empty fantasy ring as the medium of storage space and added a little passive attribute.
Based on the characteristics of the fantasy ring, the storage ring customized by the customer can be brought directly into the real world.
The ghost bracelets of the customers who had the rings were likely to be recycled into their storage rings when they logged out.
Just ask the clerk in the shopping street to check and you will know whether the bracelets of those people are still in the DIY hut.
Lu Yao picked up Erxin, who was lying on the sofa and licking his fur, and returned to the shopping street. He sent Zhumi back to the Childhood Tuition Center, and then went to the main server office to inquire about the status of the ghost bracelet.
When Zhang Shu saw Lu Yao, he asked nervously: "Has something happened in the store? Ninety-nine percent of the ghost bracelets are in dormant mode?"
Lu Yao: "All the players in Ghost Street have logged out of the game."
He Bi: "So sudden?"
Lu Yao: "The logout device hidden in the game was found by my colleagues in the store, so logging out was very simple. The bracelets are real items and cannot be taken out. Now they are all in the store and have automatically gone into dormancy. But I think a few bracelets have been taken away. Can you help me check it out?"
Zhang Shu checked quickly and replied: "There are indeed five bracelets that are not in Ghost Street. The system cannot locate them and their status is unknown."
Lu Yao: "Okay, I got it."
As long as it is confirmed that a few bracelets are not in Ghost Street, it can be determined that they have followed the storage ring to Tomorrow City.
After Lu Yao left, several shop assistants in the main server room couldn't help but chat for a few minutes.
Song Qingshan hugged his head, feeling upset: "All players logged out of the game this morning, I might be unemployed again!"
He Bi: "Brother, relax. They just logged out of the game temporarily, it's not like they won't come back."
Song Qingshan: "You've been trapped in a game for several years, facing life-threatening danger all the time. You finally escaped, and you want to go back and play it again?"
He Bi suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter, his face became solemn: "You just got a permanent job, you won't be laid off, will you?"
Zhang Shu was also a little anxious: "No. The place where I work is a little remote, but the boss doesn't have much to do, the lunch boxes are delicious, and there are often employee benefits. I don't want to change jobs so soon."
...
Lu Yao didn't know the entanglement and anxiety of the three employees. He took out the ruler of discipline when he returned to the DIY hut.
The users of the ghost bracelet are basically bound to Lu Yao consciously. The ghost bracelet is the medium. She wants to contact those customers in an unconventional way.
------
Tomorrow City, E60 District.
The hospital contacted the family not long ago, and Grandma Xu woke up. Song Wen's parents had already left for the hospital.
Song Wen sat in the living room, watching the online news projected on the wall. It was all about the sudden awakening of a large number of people with Internet blindness, and reports of a large number of Ghost Street players going to the game's official account and forum to ask for explanations.
Song Wen stared at the news on the wall in a daze. A large number of players' consciousnesses were trapped in the virtual game world for several years. After waking up, their bodies had varying degrees of damage or degeneration, and they had difficulty moving. Due to various practical reasons, all the debates and news related to Internet blindness and the virtual world are currently only widely circulated on the Internet.
When trapped in Ghost Street, Song Wen thought that if he could take his grandmother away from Ghost Street, he would no longer ask for anything.
When they finally came out of the game world, people outside not only did not find their abnormality, but also called them "Internet blind" patients, and rudely called all the players trapped in the game as escapees addicted to the virtual world.
Because he was in a coma for too long, Song Wen's body was temporarily unable to eat normally, and he could only rely on liquid food to temporarily relieve his hunger.
Perhaps it was because he had just woken up, the world was a mess, and his parents had spent a lot of effort on him and his grandmother in the past few years, and they looked several years older. The joy in Song Wen's heart because he finally escaped from the Ghost Street had not yet been completely released, and it had been diluted by the cold and funny reality.
Song Wen lay on the sofa weakly, closed his eyes tiredly, and felt troubled.
The real world is as bad as the virtual world.
He suddenly felt a slight numbness in his fingertips, but he ignored it.
After a few seconds, he felt a stinging pain in his knuckles. Song Wen opened his eyes impatiently, and the silver ring on his left index finger made him pause slightly, then frowned.
Is this... the storage ring bought in the DIY hut?
Can props from the virtual world be brought into the real world?
He has never heard of such a thing.
Even in Tomorrow City, a technologically advanced city with the guidance of enlightened stars, 90% of the people have the experience of being immersed in the virtual space created by holographic technology, and they even have special communicators that can smell and taste. However, there is currently no technology that can replace items in the virtual world with the real world.
Unless... this ring itself is a real item.
Song Wen thought of the online speculation about the owner's identity, and then looked at the ring on his finger, and an inexplicable fear came over him.
Speaking of which, when he just woke up, the voice that suddenly appeared in his mind seemed to say that he had a ring on him.
He had just woken up and didn't pay attention at all. Only now did he feel a chill when he recalled it.
Why did a strange voice appear in his head?
Before he woke up, the voice seemed to have been calling Lu Yao.
Is the "Lu Yao" that the voice is looking for the Lu Yao he knows?
Song Wen raised his hand and took off the ring with some effort. He held it in front of his eyes to observe, his face pale.
The mark on the inside of the ring was unmistakable. It was indeed the mark that he was very familiar with.
Song Wen's mind moved, and the storage panel popped up in front of him. In the first compartment lay a silver bracelet.
There was a small blue dot flashing on the inside of the silver bracelet. Song Wen blinked hard, but the panel and the flashing blue signal light in front of him did not disappear. He took out the ghost bracelet from the storage ring almost with a self-destructive mentality.
The moment the ghost bracelet was taken out, it was like a two-dimensional object suddenly broke through the dimensional wall and came to the three-dimensional world.
The whole bracelet is smooth and round, shining with silver. It feels heavy and cool in the hand. It is definitely not a virtual object.
The small dot that keeps flashing is in the middle of the "Yao" mark on the inside of the bracelet. Song Wen's bracelet is an advance version, and he later took it to the store for an upgrade. At that time, Lu Yao specifically told him about this button.
Song Wen put on the bracelet, and then struggled to put in a finger and pressed the small dot on the inside of the bracelet.
There was a slight sound of the mechanism starting, and the bracelet on his wrist turned into a watch.
On the surface is a small screen, which is currently displaying a video call request.
The caller is Lu Yao.
Song Wen stared at the screen without moving.
After more than ten seconds, the video call was directly connected.
Lu Yao's face appeared on the small screen: "Hello, Song Wen. I am Lu Yao, the owner of the DIY hut at Shop No. 13, Youling Street."
Song Wen frowned: "...I didn't answer the video."
Lu Yao: "The situation is urgent, I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to scare you."
Lu Yao's expression on the watch face screen was more vivid than in the game, but his voice was no different.
Song Wen was full of vigilance, but when he saw the familiar face and heard the familiar voice of the shop owner, his irritable heart calmed down: "Where are you?"
Lu Yao did not hide: "Ghost Street."
Song Wen slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "Why didn't you log out of the game? Who are you? Why are the bracelets and rings you gave me so weird?"
Lu Yao: "These are all details that don't need to be paid attention to. I will tell you in detail when I have time. I contacted you suddenly because I want to ask you a favor."
[Author's words]
Song Wen suddenly found that the shop owner seemed to be more terrifying than him.
