reality
Chu Yuan felt like he had slept for a very long time, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a pure white environment.
The fatigue in her body had not yet dissipated, so she tried to clench her fists and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the strength is still there.
She stood up and walked around in the pure white space, but she still had no strength and could only walk around where she was lying.
"007?" She tried calling out, not expecting a reply, but she heard a familiar mechanical voice.
"General Xiaochu?" followed by its surprised voice, "Are you awake?"
Before Chu Yuan could reply, he heard it continue to mutter, "General Xiaochu is awake. That's great. I'm going to report to the main system. His body functions, well, everything is normal, and his soul is also normal."
After waiting for a long time, Chu Yuan saw that it was really not going to finish, so he interrupted it, "007."
"Hmm?" 007, who was immersed in his own world, finally realized that he had forgotten about his general Xiaochu and quickly replied, "What's the matter?"
"Now." Chu Yuan considered his words and asked his own question, "Where am I now? Haven't I been wiped out?"
"You are now in my system space."
At this point, 007's heart, which was full of data, trembled. In the final battle against the mudslide, Chu Yuan was about to dissipate because it violated the laws of the small world. Fortunately, it was quick to transfer Chu Yuan into its own system at the last moment.
In fact, as a robot without any emotional programming, it should not and would not do this, but it remembered what Chu Yuan said to it after he finished speaking the last words to Zhu Yan.
Chu Yuan said, "007, although I have never met you and have only known you for a dozen days, you are the cutest and most professional system I have ever met. I am very happy to work with you, but I may not have such an opportunity again in the future."
At that moment, 007 thought that maybe it was because Chu Yuan was its first host, or maybe it was because it had seen too much with General Xiao Chu, its data brain suddenly understood Chu Yuan's mood at the time and understood why she did this.
It was as if it didn't want to end its cooperation with General Xiaochu, or perhaps for some other reason, in any case, it secretly hid Chu Yuan in its own system space.
Here, the laws of that world do not apply to it.
Chu Yuan is still the same Chu Yuan after all. Her first thought after hearing this was that people are most likely to say sentimental words when they are dying. It turned out that she, Chu Yuan, could still speak so corny one day.
Of course, Chu Yuan didn't say this because she was afraid of hurting the young system's feelings.
However, there was one thing she was very curious about.
"Won't the main system cause you trouble if you hide me here?"
007 was probably busy, and it took a long time to reply. "Trouble me? No, unless it doesn't want an heir."
"Heir?" Chu Yuan asked. Does the heir have anything to do with this matter?
Chu Yuan then reacted and made an "oh" sound with his mouth wide open. "What is your relationship with the main system?"
"I'm its son. Didn't I tell you?" 007's still childish voice was filled with a hint of pride and confusion. "Besides, if it weren't for this identity, how could a new system like me possibly take you with me?"
As the only guardian beast, her status is very high. If there was no one else this time, she would not be needed to come in person. Of course, a person who is highly trusted and can contact the main system at any time must be sent to lead the team. 007 is the best choice after weighing the pros and cons of the main system.
But the main system didn't expect so many things to happen in the end.
Chu Yuan:…That’s true.
But it hadn't told him that. Even if it had, no one would have believed it. A system could give birth to a child? And a son?
As if he knew what Chu Yuan was thinking, 007 explained, "I wasn't born! I was invented by it, and it only invented this one, an only child."
For some reason, Chu Yuan felt that it really had a sense of pride.
Many puzzles were solved. She said, no wonder 007 always had to go to meetings. She was still wondering why a newly-installed system had so many problems. It turned out that the main system was training its own son.
This puzzle was solved, but Chu Yuan still had a very important question, "Doesn't it mean that if I violate the laws of nature, I will also be punished? What punishment will it be?"
"I don't know the punishment yet. For now, you'll just be erased from that world, and no one will remember you."
Doesn't everyone remember her?
Chu Yuan fell silent, without the excitement of just waking up.
I had expected this outcome, hadn't I? Why was it so hard for me to accept it until now?
"Can I see how they are doing?"
"Sure," 007 said as he pulled up the data. "Don't worry too much, they're doing fine now."
A virtual screen appeared in front of Chu Yuan. The screen was divided into seven sections, representing the seven people.
In the picture, Han Xiaoyan and Su Yilan are studying something together, Zhao Luoyi and Fang Zhou are playing together on the badminton court, and Qi Yu is singing and playing for Tong Yin.
Chu Yuan felt like she had discovered something incredible. These few people, she said, always liked to get together when they participated in the show before, and it turned out that they were interested in each other.
She remembered the time when she was looking at her phone on her day off. A netizen commented that this was not a wilderness survival variety show, but clearly a dating show. There were eight people when they went in and only four couples when they came out. Chu Yuan now wanted to give a thumbs up to this netizen. He really had a keen eye.
Zhu Yan, who was in the middle, was lying alone at home, doing nothing but staring at the ceiling.
Looking at Zhu Yan and Chu Yuan again, I still felt a pang of heartache.
Originally, originally she could be with Zhu Yan now.
It’s not that I have any regrets, I just feel that if I could have been a little luckier, it would have been better.
Chu Yuan waved his hand, indicating that 007 could turn off the screen.
She just needed to see that they were fine now.
007 also received the latest data submitted.
Problems can be handled very quickly between systems, not to mention that the data submitted is expedited and can be transmitted to the main system once it is sent.
"General Xiaochu, there's a result here. Let me tell you..."
**
On the other side, Zhu Yan always felt that something was watching him, but after a moment, the feeling disappeared.
Intuitively, this thing might be related to that person.
The survival variety show was playing on my phone for the fifth time.
Zhu Yan hasn't left the house for a week since the last day of recording the joint variety show. He spent this week watching the show five times over, looking for any traces that might confirm his guess.
The most serious time was when he projected it on the projector and took notes on an oversized whiteboard in his hand.
A week passed before he finally realized what was missing.
There was someone missing by his side, someone who would always accept and share with him.
In the videos of more than ten days, he looked back many times, but sometimes there was no one when he looked back, but he still had a smile on his face.
Overall it looked normal and logical, but he knew himself best, and at that time there must have been someone who took on all his joys, sorrows, anger and happiness.
The hand holding the jade clenched again, could that person be you?
That night, he finally dreamed of that person again.
He was in a trance, surrounded by a pure white background. He could not see anything and could only hear sounds.
A young girl's voice rang out, "So I won't be punished now?"
Another mechanical voice replied, "Yes, the main system has compared various data and proved that the natural disaster in the small world is not a natural law. Although we don't know what it is now, it proves that you did not violate the natural laws of the small world. And you are still a meritorious protector. You will not be punished or erased."
The girl paused for a moment and asked again, "Then where should I go?"
"The mission has been successfully completed, but there is no reward. General Xiaochu, you can return to your original place when you are well again. The world still needs your protection."
General Xiaochu?
Zhu Yan didn't quite understand what they were talking about: punishment, rules, and tasks. He only understood the four words "General Xiaochu".
Xiaochu, is that her name?
Is she leaving? Where is she going?
"Then I..." As if she knew that her question was difficult, she asked it anyway, "Can I still go to that world?"
There was a brief silence, and then the mechanical voice sighed, "No, no punishment is already the best outcome. General Xiaochu, you should also know that as a tasker, it is against the rules to develop feelings for a person in this world."
In the past, there have been cases where attackers have become emotionally entangled with other characters, but the final result has always been that the attackers have been wiped out, without exception.
Hearing this, the girl fell silent.
Zhu Yan never heard the girl's voice again, but he roughly figured out what it meant.
Now she was leaving, maybe leaving her own world, or maybe leaving somewhere else. In short, he might never see her again.
Zhu Yan’s first thought was that he didn’t want to see her.
He went through so much trouble to find her because he didn't want her to leave.
He tried to call out, "Xiaochu."
This should be the name.
After shouting several times without hearing any response, Zhu Yan felt a growing sense of weightlessness.
He ran forward without any purpose. He didn't know where to find the girl. He only knew that he didn't want to lose her.
Finally, he saw a door in front of him, emitting a faint green light. It was the only thing he could grasp in the blank space.
Just when he was about to take a step forward, he woke up from the dream.
His face and body were filled with pain. He forced himself to open his eyes and look. It was bright outside. His agent, Lin Zhe, was shaking him with a mournful look on his face, shouting, "Zhu Yan, Zhu Yan, Zhu Yan, don't die."
Zhu Yan kicked Lin Zhe directly to settle all the new and old grudges.
He held the jade tightly in his hand, his body trembling. He was just one step away, just one step away.
Lin Zhe rushed over and climbed up, "Are you okay? I'm glad you're okay. I saw you crying when I came in, and you were mumbling something about Xiaochu. Did you have a nightmare?"
"You've been busy lately too, not even going out."
Zhu Yan didn't know what to say, nor who to blame. He just said it was okay and locked himself in the room.
He knew that Lin Zhe meant well, but he really didn't want to talk right now. He needed to sort out his thoughts.
Everything in the dream was too real. He had to hold on to something now. He had a hunch that he couldn't lose that person.
