“Latest News!”
When Su Yi sat at the dining table, Bai Ye turned on the giant projection screen opposite the table. A bird-headed parrot monster appeared on it, with a red beak opening and closing up and down, reporting the evening news in Monster City:
"Today, a broken-winged elf was sold at a sky-high price at an underground auction, but the mysterious tycoon did not show up, leaving only a bat mask at the scene. Is there a deeper metaphor in this? We don't know..."
"In the evening, a major traffic accident occurred in the western part of our city. The perpetrator was a female ghost haunting an ancient house. When the incident happened, she was trying to cross the road on a broom. The truck driver closest to her braked suddenly, and the vehicle behind did not brake in time, causing a chain rear-end collision.
"Afterwards, our reporter interviewed the female ghost. When asked why she didn't just come out to haunt the place, she said she was helpless. She heard some kind of music and the Hades Band was probably out to hunt again."
Su Yi saw a picture of a dark night sky pop up on the screen. Under the blood moon, there was a silhouette of a horseman. The host pointed and said:
"In the legend, there is an undead knight who can make ghosts die a second time and turn them into ashes. He is the natural enemy of all ghosts. He wears ice iron armor and rides a white bone warhorse. No one has ever seen his face under the armor. Wherever his iron hooves touch, the song of the dead will sound. It is magnificent and majestic, as if an entire orchestra in a music hall is playing for him, summoning ghosts to come and die.
"Ghosts don't want to call the Undead Knight by his name, and instead refer to him as the Hades Band. Ghosts who have heard the Hades Band will have a strong psychological trauma, and thus develop a habit of running away madly when they hear music that's slightly similar. The female ghost who caused the traffic accident also said that she didn't cross the road on purpose, but she panicked because she heard similar music.
"But the truck driver and other drivers who were involved in the accident refused to agree with the ghost's statement and believed that the ghost was fully responsible for the accident. The specific responsibility for the accident still needs further investigation by the traffic police brigade."
The parrot host looked at the camera seriously:
"As we all know, the Undead Knight is a very rare monster card, which belongs to the legendary level. No one has drawn it for many years. After our reporter learned about the ghost girl's statement, he immediately launched a relevant investigation. We found that the number of Undead Knight cards in the current card pool is indeed one less, which means that someone really drew it.
"Legend has it that the body of the Undead Knight will be bound in an armor of ice and iron, unable to escape. If he does not receive a kiss from True Love, his flesh and skin will completely merge with the armor, turning him into an unconscious man of ice and iron, before finally breaking into pieces and dying.
"In the past, all those who drew the Undead Knight died like this. No one would fall in love with a monster wearing an iron helmet like this. Within a month, this Undead Knight should also die.
"Here is a friendly reminder. If any of your citizens have monster cards with the attribute of ghost, you must pay attention to travel safety in the next month. Your natural enemy, the Undead Knight, is on the scene. If you hear the call of the Undead Song, please do not respond. I repeat, please do not respond!"
"Next? Report the next piece of news..."
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
Su Yi saw a video of machine gun fire playing on the screen.
Parrot Bird host: "We can see in the video that the young man is crazily shooting at a store with a machine gun. Later, the police found that the owner of the store was a poacher who had been wanted for a long time.
"Afterwards, the police thanked this righteous citizen who fired a machine gun and asked him how he knew that the store owner was a wanted criminal. The man said he didn't know, he just couldn't find his wife. His mental state without a wife was worrying. When he passed by the store, he saw a pair of fairy wings hanging at the door for sale. He was extremely angry for a moment, so he fired a machine gun to vent his anger.
"But when our reporter further inquired about his wife's characteristics, the gunman, Mr. Gun, was unwilling to reveal more, only saying that she was a very beautiful woman.
"So if any kind-hearted citizen sees a very beautiful woman, please contact Mr. Gun. We have printed his contact information at the bottom of the screen. I wish Mr. Gun can be reunited with his wife as soon as possible!"
Su Yi: "..."
What a mess of news!
Bai Ye watched the news, raised his eyebrows, and then lowered his voice.
The restaurant suddenly became quiet. Su Yi picked up a piece of his favorite sweet and sour pork ribs and said:
"I...recovered some of my memories from the first week."
He flapped his elf wings: "This pair of broken wings seems to have the ability to recall memories."
The older Bai Ye smiled slightly and said nothing. His thoughts were monitored by the light screen, so he couldn't really comment on the events of the first week. After a while, he asked:
"All, or part?"
Su Yi: "Part of it?"
What happened after he and the Snow Wolf Bai Ye met has not been restored. More importantly, Su Yi saw that the [Thriller Script Killing] in the first round did not carry out ideological control on people.
This means that from the first week to now, the top Thriller has been replaced, and the new person has strengthened the supervision of [Thriller Script Killing], which has led to the current mode where it is not even allowed to be thought of.
In the first round, Bai Ye was also a person, a complete person. Now there are so many Bai Ye. Is it because of what happened in the first round?
Su Yi thought that Bai Ye's current appearance was not bad news. It even matched his thoughts in the first round. He was thinking in the cave at that time that he didn't want to see Bai Ye get injured when fighting monsters, missing limbs or even dying like other people. He hoped to give Bai Ye more life through some kind of mathematical model or code.
The current situation is consistent with his original idea. There are many Bai Ye in the virtual world now, just like Bai Ye has many accounts, which means he has many lives.
Even if a certain White Night is unfortunately destroyed by the enemy, there are still many other White Nights that can survive, which can ensure to the greatest extent that the existence of White Night will not be destroyed.
And when they really succeed one day, as long as there is a conscious body of Bai Ye in this virtual world, Bai Ye will be able to return to the real world smoothly, wake up from reality and survive successfully.
Thinking in this way, Su Yi guessed that the reason why there are so many different Bai Ye now is probably because he discovered some method in the first week to transform the code into some kind of split mathematical model. He reached an agreement with Bai Ye and they jointly formulated this plan.
Su Yi himself has a superconducting brain, which means he will not age in the virtual world. The problem is Bai Ye, who will not only age quickly, but will also die if seriously injured.
But when Bai Ye has many sub-Yes, the situation is very different. Even if one of the sub-Yes dies, there will be a new Bai Ye to replace it. The whole [Bai Ye] can become an immortal being in the virtual world.
If the plan fails, one of them will not age and the other will not die, and they will start the next cycle together and continue the cycle until it succeeds.
Su Yi suddenly felt a little sour in his heart. From a purely rational point of view, this was a very effective method. No matter how huge the gap in strength between the enemy and us was, he and Bai Ye could keep rewinding like game players, while the enemy Thriller was like the villain boss in the game and could only wait to be annihilated by them.
But putting reason aside, what a cruel method this is.
Su Yi felt as if his heart was being squeezed by a big hand. He was clearly aware that this method could only be thought of by himself. He must be the one who constructed this fission mathematical model. Bai Ye could not have thought of these models.
And what kind of mood was Bai Ye in the first episode in which he actually carried out this plan and split himself up one by one?
This is not his first time to participate in [Thriller Script Murder], so in previous experiences, has Bai Ye already sacrificed his life?
Su Yi's mind suddenly became confused. His usual rational thinking suddenly stopped working. He felt sour and uncomfortable in his heart. He couldn't help but think childishly, where did those sacrificed days and nights go?
His rational mind told him that of course he was dead, he had nowhere to go, he turned into a bunch of meaningless codes, and was completely destroyed by ?
Click, click.
Yes? Drops of water dripped onto Su Yi's plate, spreading the sweet and sour sauce of the sweet and sour spareribs and forming a small light-colored splash.
"Wife?"
The life-saving system immediately noticed that something was wrong with Su Yi: "Wife? What's wrong with you!"
"…Su Yi?"
The young master Bai beside him also turned his head to look at him and took out a tissue: "What's wrong? The food doesn't suit your taste? Is it so bad that... you're crying?"
He quickly reached for his chopsticks, picked up the sweet and sour pork ribs that Su Yi had just taken a small bite of, put it in his mouth, and tasted it:
"I'm fine. I can eat. Why are you crying like this?" Bai Ye paused and gently used a tissue to wipe the tears from Su Yi's face.
The face of the lover in the palm of his hand was very small. When he touched it with the tissue, half of her face was covered. The crystal chandelier on the ceiling of the restaurant cast a golden light, and the tissue was reflected by the light, like a translucent gold foil. Su Yi's tearful eyes were hidden behind the transparent gold foil, faintly and moving.
Bai Ye's Adam's apple rolled, his voice was a little low, his eyebrows were furrowed, and he asked in a dangerous tone: "Did that guy bully you?"
The life-saving system immediately protested: "What are you talking about, stinky dog? How could I bully my wife!"
No matter how loudly it protested, the older Bai Ye could not hear it.
"...You didn't bully me." Su Yi shook his head, took the tissue and pressed his eyes, "I'm fine..."
From childhood to adulthood, he has almost never cried in front of others. When he was four or five years old and was lying on the hospital bed and the nurse inserted a tube into his esophagus for the first time, he did not cry. There were no such strong emotional fluctuations in his brain. Most of the things that happen in life are foreseeable rationally. Since they have been foreseen, they can naturally be accepted.
But this time, he had foreseen it, but suddenly could not accept it. His brain suddenly lost control, and tears fell like beads that had fallen off the string, dripping into the dinner plate.
Su Yi calmed down for a while. The 29-year-old Bai Ye had experienced more than other Bai Ye. Su Yi asked:
"Am I...recovering faster than before?"
This time, he realized that something was wrong with this world in the first copy, and retrieved his memories of his past life in the second copy. Now he has forced all the Thrillers into the Monster City. At this rate, he should be making faster progress than any previous time.
"Of course." Bai Ye, who was ten years older than him, smiled at him tenderly, stroked Su Yi's soft hair, and said:
"You are so smart, you will recover faster and faster."
"S...if?"
Su Yi clenched the tissue she was using to wipe her tears, wrinkling it in her fist:
"I'm actually... not as smart as you think. Or maybe my intelligence is suitable for solving math problems, but it may not be enough to kill these Thrillers. What if... I fail again this time?"
Su Yi bit his lip and couldn't say anything for a moment. If he was the only one fighting here, he was not afraid of those Thrillers, nor was he worried about himself. If he won, he would live, and if he lost, he would die. In reality, his brain was controlled by those guys and used as a hub, which was no different from being dead.
But now he is not alone, now there are two of them. When he is not alone, some parts of his heart will become stronger because of the two of them together, but there are other parts that will become very fragile, like being tied by a silk thread, and when the silk thread moves, it will pull his heart and soul.
Bai Ye had sacrificed so much, Su Yi couldn't allow himself to fail again and again. If he was strong enough, he could solve all the problems in one round, and Bai Ye wouldn't have to go through so much hardship by splitting up like this...
“Puff!”
The life-saving system that was eavesdropping on Su Yi's inner thoughts suddenly laughed:
"Stupid wife."
Su Yi was stunned for a moment. This was the first time in his life that someone called him an idiot.
"How can one win the first round alone? That's too much to take for granted." The life-saving system said:
"My wife is already very capable. She is the smartest person I have ever met. What does it matter if she fails? Just start over again. If it doesn't work again, then try again. Isn't this mechanism used for looping back to the previous state? Actually..."
Su Yi heard the mechanical sound of the life-saving system echoing in his heart, and Bai Ye approached his ear and spoke to him. At this moment, the two voices overlapped and spoke similar words:
"For me, there is no such thing as success or failure. It's all the days I spent with you."
The golden crystal chandelier in the palace restaurant reflected in Bai Ye's eyes. Su Yi heard him say to himself:
"Bai Ye will always be with you."
The air was quiet.
In this moment of silence, Su Yi suddenly felt a lump in his throat. The 29-year-old Bai Ye did not say to him "[I] am with you". What he said was: "[Bai Ye] is with you".
After a long while, Su Yi asked timidly:
"Will there be a day when you will be...absent?"
Bai Ye, who was ten years older than them, thought for a moment and said seriously, "It's hard to say. After all, I'm older than them and my youth is gone. It's possible that I'll die first."
"You! You...don't say such things."
How could the soft-hearted Su Yi listen to this? After hearing this, the tears that had just been held back began to flow again, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"Are you heartbroken?"
Bai Ye looked at Su Yi's red eyes from crying, and felt itchy. He came close to him and pressed his will:
"Since you care about me so much, why don't you give me another kiss?"
The life-saving system yelled, "You scheming old man! Wife, stop listening to this stinky man!"
Su Yi sniffed and held back her tears. She stared at Bai Ye with red eyes and cursed him softly:
"You are not serious..."
She was talking about such a sad thing, but suddenly she asked him for a kiss.
"Yeah, the older you get, the less serious you become." The 29-year-old Bai Ye nodded in agreement. He lowered his head and put his forehead against Su Yi's, looking very intimate:
"Kiss or not?"
"Let me make it clear first, I don't want to just skim the surface."
