Chapter 7 Chapter 7 The figure stared at me for a long time like a ghost...
The lights in the dormitory had just been turned off. In the darkness, Li Zhuo, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, could clearly hear the laughter and chatting from the other beds, and smell the aroma of snacks such as spicy strips.
His deskmate lived in another dormitory, not the same one as him, and Li Zhuo was indeed not the type of person who would take the initiative to talk to anyone enthusiastically.
So his current situation in the dormitory is still in the invisible person stage, that is, although he doesn’t have many close friends, he doesn’t have any enemies either.
Roommates are in the same space, but each does their own thing. They may not make plans to play with Li Zhuo, but they can still have a few awkward chats when they meet.
Li Zhuo is quite satisfied with this situation.
After all, he was attending an international school, and because he was so eager to fit in, he bravely tried to join in other people's conversations time and time again. What was the result?
Li Zhuo had no idea what they were saying. The awkward mixture of Chinese and foreign coded language was beyond the comprehension of a country bumpkin like him who had just arrived.
The harder he tried to fit in, the more he made one incoherent joke after another. He became a kind of clown at school, and the more he tried to make friends, the fewer people wanted to approach him.
Those memories seemed to have happened a long time ago, yet seemed to have just happened yesterday. Li Zhuo stared at the ceiling until his eyes became sore, and then he closed them.
This week is the last week of this month. As usual, his parents will give him living expenses again next week, right?
What Li Zhuo was looking forward to was not the money, but the message that came with the living expenses. This might be the only communication between him and his parents.
Last time I asked him to study hard.
What about this time?
He suddenly thought of Li Xuan.
I used to regard this "brother" as an imaginary enemy, but now that I am far away from him, I sometimes begin to admire him.
This person always manages to do everything perfectly. No matter the occasion, he can quickly adapt to his role and knows what to say and what not to say. No matter what accidents he encounters, they all seem to be within his expectations. It seems that the word "failure" does not exist in his life dictionary.
Are there such people in this world?
Born with great intelligence, he can learn anything quickly and is a perfect genius without any flaws from head to toe.
It's really enviable.
As Li Zhuo thought this, he felt ashamed of his dark thoughts.
As I was thinking, I couldn't help but think of Teacher Mo again, and then naturally continued to dwell on the problem that I hadn't figured out in the evening.
Where did that strange feeling come from?
He'd heard a lot of rumors about Teacher Mo from his deskmate. He'd heard that he seemed very secretive around school, that he never attended meetings, that he'd donated a lot of money to the school and was some mysterious wealthy man, and that he'd come to the lab as a teacher just for fun...
There were too many rumors, some true and some false, and one of the most widely spread ones was that Mo Liang was here to secretly visit the school?
Many teachers and students in Experimental Middle School had almost no contact with Mo Liang, so naturally they could only make some unfounded guesses. However, Li Zhuo was different.
He was the one who had the most contact with Mo Liang.
After living in the Li family for two years, he is no longer the ignorant bumpkin who just left the village. Through the influence of his surroundings, Li Zhuo now has a certain understanding of some luxury clothing brands, clothing fabrics, etc.
He had never seen the brand of Mr. Mo's clothes before, or it was very likely a custom-made designer piece. The fabric and style were impeccable, and the price was, as one could imagine, expensive.
The watch on his wrist, the glasses on his nose, the shoes on his feet, the water cup on the table, etc., almost all the brands you can see are not cheap.
Teacher Mo should be quite rich,
But……
A lot of miscellaneous information flooded into Li Zhuo's mind like a tide, and he thought of some scenes from the daytime.
Before dinner, Teacher Mo led Li Zhuo to the kitchen sink. Not only did he personally turn on the faucet for him, he also took the initiative to hold his hand and scrub the back of his hands and palms for him...
During the meal, Teacher Mo never touched his bowl and chopsticks, but watched Li Zhuo eat with a smile on his face, his eyes so carefully and attentively paying attention to his every chewing and swallowing movement...
After finishing his meal, he said goodbye, and Teacher Mo even walked him all the way from the classroom apartment to the classroom door.
An inexplicable feeling of disharmony built up, but Li Zhuo couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
But putting aside Teacher Mo’s true identity and his motivation for coming to school, and just looking at his actions, aren’t they doing him a good thing?
In the dark dormitory, the laughter continued. Someone told a joke and the laughter became even louder.
Li Zhuo gave himself a side.
Thinking about it carefully, he seemed to have had a hard time adapting when he first arrived at the Li family. Back then, he woke up every day feeling like he was living in a dream, and it took him several months to adjust.
So is it the same now?
Li Zhuo tried to use the known formulas he had learned to solve a similar problem that was troubling him, just like solving a difficult math problem.
Is it because few people are so nice to him, so once someone shows kindness to him, he feels a little uncomfortable?
After blaming all the problems on himself, the doubts in Li Zhuo's heart seemed to dissipate a lot. He felt that he was just overthinking. People were nice to him, but he was still so suspicious. Isn't he too ungrateful?
After thinking this problem through, he stopped tossing and turning and lay flat on his back.
Before his consciousness gradually blurred and he fell into a deep sleep, Li Zhuo thought that he seemed to have not thanked Teacher Mo today. Tomorrow, he must say thank you to him. Of course, he couldn't eat and drink for free, so he had to give him some money.
The Li family gave him a generous living allowance. He spent most of his time at school and could not spend much, so he already had some savings in his little piggy bank.
Well, that's it.
The boy who was sleeping soundly at this moment had no idea that as his breathing became longer and longer, a familiar figure was standing quietly downstairs of his dormitory.
That figure stared at an inconspicuous dormitory window on a certain floor like a ghost for a long, long time...
*
What did you say?
Mo Liang continued to stare in a certain direction, his lips motionless, communicating only through a wisp of consciousness with the system he had just released.
[I'm saying the host is amazing. I haven't even issued a mission yet, and the host has already taken the initiative to approach the target, obtained information by collecting saliva, and even gained the target's trust! !]
[By the way, the progress bar just advanced 5%. Li Zhuo's current favorability towards the host is: 30.]
The noisy system set off a few virtual fireworks to celebrate and wanted to say something else, but it seemed that Mo Liang completely ignored its behavior.
The fully simulated emotional module allowed the cold system to possess the awkward emotions that only natural life forms would have. Seeing that no host paid any attention to it, the system slowly put away its fireworks.
This mission's world is a story about rebirth and counterattack. The protagonist is Li Xuan, and the overall plot revolves around how he relies on his memories of his past life to fight back after his rebirth...
Our target, Li Zhuo, is a minor character with a relatively small screen time, accounting for less than 5% of the film.
He first appears in the protagonist's memories and in the mouths of the Li couple. His first official appearance is at the airport. In the next five chapters, he plays a background character who is uneducated and often causes funny and antic scenes due to his lack of knowledge. He leaves the Li family after five chapters and appears again as a clown who messes up the party. After the party, he is completely offline...
After introducing the story, the system began to seriously introduce the number, task, etc. of its own guided mission.
[Ahem, let me introduce myself. I'm your guidance system. My number is 0255. I'm from Ideal City. My main functions are...]
The process of popularizing this kind of plot science should not actually be told while the mission is in progress. It should have been told when Mo Liang was on the way to be teleported to this world.
It was just a little accident.
This time, the new host had just bound to the system and obtained the location coordinates. Before the system could even say its fixed lines, the new host almost immediately forcibly invaded its control terminal, stopped all its functions, and locked it in a small dark room.
At that moment, 0255 thought it was finished. Although it wouldn't actually die, it was the emotional system that made it feel fear.
【The mission is about to fail.】
This was the last thought before it stopped running.
According to the portrait obtained by the last computing power analysis, this host does not look like the kind of person who would obediently follow the mission step by step to save the target.
His personality is obviously very arbitrary and he is impossible to communicate with. He might even start a massacre on the target of the mission, and then the mission will definitely fail!
There have been similar cases before. After all, with so many hosts, there will always be a few abnormal lunatics who think that the only way to save the target is to kill it.
A system that encounters this situation can only say that it is unlucky. After all, according to the system rules, if it encounters such a host and detects that the mission target status is abnormal, the system can only self-destruct and report the abnormal information to the headquarters.
Upon receiving the report, headquarters will immediately trace the abnormality to its source and forcibly expel the host. A new system will be regenerated from the core code of the self-destructed system, and this new system will lead the new host to continue the second round in the restarted small world.
In short, based on this premise, the first action of the system after it is released again is to immediately search for the mission target and scan the current life information.
But it’s okay, it’s okay...
Although the system didn't know what had happened, the target was still alive! He was healthy, mentally sound, and all his limbs were still intact!
Good thing!
You should know that 0255 has backed up all important data and is holding the button to start the self-destruct program, waiting to be pressed. As a result, it detected that the rescue mission is proceeding in an orderly manner and is progressing well, so it certainly does not need to self-destruct.
It secretly set off a small firework for itself.
[It’s just that I don’t quite understand…]
The system expressed its confusion and bewilderment about Mo Liang's behavior in a flat mechanical voice.
【Why are you standing here? 】
I mean…
If you're trying to gain favor, the target won't even know you're looking at them. Even during evening study, they won't know you're looking at them, so you won't gain their favor this way...
The author has something to say:
