"Then...I want a mammoth!"
Cheng Zhu made a wish with utmost seriousness.
Yin Zhu: "...No, then let's use butterflies. They're perfect for keeping in your pond."
"Huh? Wait, what's wrong with the butterfly..." Cheng Zhu's voice stopped abruptly because she saw that the AI female teacher in front of her had regained the gentle expression she had when they first met, which meant that the higher-dimensional being had left this body.
Just then, the butterfly took flight and landed on Chengzhu's head.
The female teacher in front of her didn't seem to notice it. She simply smiled, placed the book on the table, and asked gently, "Dear Christine, I see that your assistant has enrolled you in science studies, but noted that you have no foundation in it. So let's start with the simplest numbers."
Cheng Zhu took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, knowing that the moment to test his acting skills was about to begin.
She had to portray a science genius who knew nothing about numbers but was proficient in middle school math and physics, to avoid wasting too much time on useless things, since she only had two and a half days left.
The higher-dimensional being mentioned earlier provided a crucial clue: "Schools are places where external artificial intelligence has difficulty intervening."
In other words, if the collapse three days later is caused by artificial intelligence, then the school may very well be the last sanctuary. Previous chosen ones have also entered the school, and although it appears similar to the outside world, there is a crucial difference.
The school uses a campus network, not the internet.
If there are any problems with the external network, the school can immediately cut off the network, severing contact with the outside world and extending the time the chosen ones can survive in the instance.
This is why the chosen ones must enter the school.
...
"Did you create a new account?"
Hirano Shan stood beside Yin Zhu for a long time, feeling that she could see Yin Zhu's shadow in Cheng Zhu.
"They are somewhat similar, but quite different. For example, I prefer tigers and wolves when it comes to animals, while she actually likes mammoths. Compared to her, I'm more practical." When Yin Zhu noticed her, she had the thought that "could Cheng Zhu be a parallel version of myself?" but she quickly dismissed the idea.
Everyone is themselves, not so unique, yet also unique.
Moreover, there are many people whose names contain the character "bamboo," and Cheng Zhu is an only child, while his family had four children. The difference in their living environments alone is enough to cause differences in their thinking on several issues.
"Actually, sometimes I feel like you don't really like... your family?"
In Hirano San's eyes, Yin Zhu is a very contradictory person. Most of the time, she appears to be very straightforward and without any guile. However, this straightforwardness may be the result of her having a lot of ulterior motives.
It's like someone who both wants to be noticed and wants to be ignored.
He has done so much for Earth, yet now He has completely forgotten about Earth and is happily playing the "unspeakable rules and strange tales game".
Pink talent allows Hirano San to sense Yin Zhu's emotions and thoughts.
However, this is contingent on Yin Zhu actively considering certain aspects. If Yin Zhu hasn't thought of something, Hirano Shan can't simply conjure it up out of thin air. The pink talent can only sense the present thought; it's not a memory reader capable of retrieving all of a person's thoughts from the past.
"Don't like it? I think I like them all."
Yin Zhu's answer was simple: she wasn't interested in listening to Cheng Zhu's basic math and focused her attention on Hirano Shan: "However, it's true that I don't like going home. Mainly, it's just too social. You should be able to understand, most people don't behave the same way towards people of different statuses. For example, they are very obedient when facing their parents, lively and mischievous when facing their classmates, proactive when they meet someone they like, and indifferent when they meet someone they don't like."
He paused for a moment: "And me... well, I'm just a bit more direct about my emotions in all aspects. Anyway, they don't usually see other sides of me, so it's not a big deal. But it's a strange rule..."
Seemingly feeling that she hadn't gone into enough detail, Yin Zhu pinpointed a specific time: "Especially after returning to Blue Star for the second time, I glanced at the recording of myself in Sin City. After watching just the beginning, I felt that I should never go home again. Just thinking about people who knew me asking, 'Why were you like that in the dungeon?' made my scalp tingle with embarrassment. Even if it hadn't become something unspeakable, I would have stayed with the think tank for the rest of my life and would rather die than go back."
The feeling of Yin Zhu in the first instance was not obvious, after all, it wasn't her own face that was being used, but that of a little boy.
However, during the second instance, Yin Zhu felt awkward from head to toe.
Looking at herself, having given Chen Lvdou a profound and unfathomable look, and then shamelessly teasing the mirror ghost, performing various personas to gain the favor of the indigenous people... At the time, she didn't feel anything, but when she looked back from a third-person perspective afterward, Yin Zhu felt as if she was shrouded in a shadow called social death.
At the time, she was in no mood to read the comments and was directly pulled into training by Anzhi to squeeze out the thoughts in her mind through exercise.
But after practice, late at night, Yin Zhu's mind would start replaying the live stream recordings she had seen, which strengthened her belief that she had to protect Blue Star and not go home... Now that it has become something that cannot be spoken of and is recalled, it is a painful memory that is like wearing a mask.
Hirano Shan sensed the intense emotions emanating from Yin Zhu and felt a mix of amusement and indescribable feelings.
