Chapter 082 City of Dreams (XI)
Having players clean up ruins is a joke.
Bai Tao didn't have the heart to play role-playing games with the players for another day. A hole was blown in the copy, and the two missing players have not been seen since then.
Bai Tao doesn't want to wake up tomorrow morning and find the number of players has decreased again.
As soon as Shi Subaru woke up, Bai Tao kicked all the players out of the dungeon.
[Please note that the courier company that delivers the copy has a sudden unexpected situation and will be closed soon. The transmission will start in five minutes. Please ensure your personal safety during this period. ]
The player, covered in dust and sweat, said: What a great system! It saves lives!
The players disappeared, leaving only ruins on the ground.
Among the four living people, only Little Bandage was working diligently.
"Muyi, stop."
The bandage stopped obediently and swallowed the company. Mu Yi, who was deeply influenced by the company, regarded Bai Tao as his incarnation.
He hits wherever I point him, and he's very obedient.
I have my own thoughts, but not many. I can only adjust them slowly in the future.
Bai Tao: "It's already a dangerous building, do you still want the copy?"
The boss said without thinking: "I'll listen to you."
Baitao: "..."
Pretending not to sense the boss's gaze, Bai Tao said slowly: "Then go out."
There are plenty of players, so let's leave these jobs to them.
Just after exiting the dungeon, Ma Ren: “Surprise!”
He held up a firework tube thicker than a human arm and aimed it at her.
Baitao: "!!!"
Want to sneak attack her? Impossible! Get away from the battlefield immediately.
With a bang, fireworks rained down, spraying all over the boss standing behind Bai Tao, and Miss Yang standing on the other side was also innocently caught in the crossfire.
Ma Ren: “!!!”
SOS! Damn it, Miss Yang is fine, but she is not familiar with the boss.
He immediately stood at attention and apologized.
The victim was emotionally stable. He wiped his face calmly and looked at the company that Ma Ren had decorated as a party scene: "You guys have fun. I'm going to change my clothes."
As soon as the boss left, Ma Ren became happy again and hugged Bai Tao by relying on his height.
"You almost killed me! Tell me how you did it?"
The dark clouds that had been hanging over everyone's heads dissipated, and Ma Ren looked a lot more lively.
Bai Tao told Ma Ren about the details of the chain of schemes.
She gave a thumbs up: "As expected of you, you are so insidious, I like it!"
Baitao: "..."
Is this a compliment?
Since she needed help from someone, Bai Tao decided not to talk back.
After ordering Mu Yi to go away, Bai Tao prepared to have a private conversation with the minister.
There was no need for secret codes, as both knew that the other was a genuine human being from the real world.
There were a lot of things prepared on the table. I don’t know how Ma Ren managed to get all the items for the party together in such a short time.
He opened a bottle of wine and handed it to Ma Ren.
Bai Tao: "Minister, were you also sent here after death?"
Ma Ren nodded and said with a melancholy look on his face: "Yes, if you fail to pass the level by accident, you will die."
Bai Tao: Oh~ I failed to pass the level!
Just as he was about to continue asking questions, he met Ma Ren's half-smile in his gaze.
"You have lost your memory!" Ma Ren said affirmatively.
Bai Tao did not expect Ma Ren to say this suddenly, but she reacted very quickly and gave the reaction that Ma Ren expected - a look of surprise and defensiveness.
"How do you know?"
Ma Ren drank a bottle of wine proudly: "I guessed it."
Of course she wasn't guessing. Bai Tao's leading questions were too naive and too obvious for her. When she was in the grassroots studio, she asked the same questions when interrogating prisoners.
However, when the rule ghost story invaded later, Ma Ren was transferred to the Disaster Investigation Bureau.
Bai Tao asked common sense questions that she should know, so Ma Ren immediately deduced Bai Tao's situation.
He stuffed a bottle of wine at Bai Tao and comforted her, "Amnesia is normal. I have also lost some memories. People like you and me who retain memories of the real world are actually a minority. Most of the players who died in the dungeon were washed out and then thrown into the Dream City."
Ma Ren's words answered her doubts about the origin of humans in Dream City.
Bai Tao noticed the words Ma Ren used - washed into a blank slate, indicating that amnesia was not caused by death.
And if you fail to pass the level, you will be thrown into the Dream City? Then where does her world consciousness and system come from?
The system panel on her body clearly reminded Bai Tao that she was not hallucinating.
If she has these two things but cannot say them out loud, according to Ma Ren's character, she would give Bai Tao some hints - just like when she hinted that she was a human.
So Ma Ren didn't know anything about world consciousness and systems.
"Minister, do you have a mission?"
"Mission? To survive, to survive without being assimilated."
This is the task that Ma Ren gave to himself, not the task of the world consciousness.
We agreed to be undercover together, but my sister said I was just talking nonsense.
In the end, she was the only undercover agent.
Qianqian took a sip of wine and thought of Li Qingzhao. She didn't enter the Dream City through a copy. Her records only mentioned the strange rules of the Dream City, without the word "copy".
"Minister, do you know Li Qingzhao?"
Ma Ren blew another bottle: "Of course I know, famous female poet, do you want to say a few more words in English?"
Baitao: "..."
The minister was working very hard to achieve his goal - to turn a deaf ear to the world outside and to simply stay alive.
"No, actually, Li——"
"Then drink! To get rid of such a huge obstacle to the company, I will accompany you for a good drink, and we won't leave until we are drunk!"
Bai Tao: "Minister, you are drunk, you are drunk."
Baitao: "..."
Forget it, let’s talk about it after I sober up.
He snatched the bottle and drank it all.
Bai Tao also drank a lot, with a slightly tipsy face. She propped up her chin and suddenly asked, "Minister, should we call the boss the boss?"
Ma Ren: "Are you attracted to him? He's quite good-looking, but he has a girlfriend, so don't think about him anymore."
Baitao: "..."
She wasn't thinking about him, but she suspected he was thinking about her.
Ma Ren was drinking and muttering, "It seems his girlfriend is still in that damn place. I don't know when she will be released."
Bai Tao was instantly attracted by the haunted place that Ma Ren described.
"Minister, what ghost place do you mean?"
"Hell on earth." Ma Ren shook his head, burped, and was about to describe the 'haunted place' in detail.
When Miss Yang came back after changing her clothes, Bai Tao and Ma Ren's conversation temporarily ended, and the two of them started to blow into the bottle.
Bai Tao sat aside, chatting with Ma Ren and Miss Yang in a casual manner, occasionally drinking a sip of wine.
"Rustle, rustle—"
The sound came from far away and a shadow appeared above Bai Tao's head.
The boss's face came into view.
"Want to talk?"
Bai Tao: Not really.
But the body stood up obediently.
The boss knows her, so he probably wouldn't mind talking to her about the past even though she has lost her memory.
The two came to the window.
The tail stayed on the floor quietly. Bai Tao suddenly felt unhappy. She curled the corners of her mouth and turned into a half-ling spider. She raised her body and aligned her eyes with the boss.
Well, I feel better.
Bai Tao spoke first: "What do you want to talk about?"
Tell me what happened before she came to Dream City?
Her face was flushed and her bright eyes reflected his reflection.
It seemed as if he was in her eyes and in her heart, beautiful as a dream, intoxicating.
Now the dream is over, because Bai Tao sees everything except familiarity with him.
She didn't recognize him, or -
He tentatively said, "If you feel unwell, remember to come to me. I'm a doctor."
That’s it?
Bai Tao nodded: "I will, thank you."
As expected, she had lost her memory. A glimmer of understanding flashed in the boss's eyes. She didn't recognize him because she had lost her memory. Her tail wagged happily.
Bai Tao: She seemed to understand his emotions.
Boss: "You can also come to me if you have any memory problems."
Baitao: "..."
Everyone knows that she has lost her memory, but she is the only one who doesn't know, right?
Bai Tao: "A question."
"Yeah." The person on the other side pretended to listen attentively.
"What is my name?"
Boss: “I don’t know, you didn’t tell me.”
Bai Tao raised an eyebrow: "So we are not familiar with each other?"
boss:"......"
He stopped talking, his face expressionless and still looking scary. Bai Tao glanced at the snake's tail, which was motionless. It seemed that its owner was not in a very good mood.
Bai Tao spread her hands: "I don't know your name either, so we're even."
This time the boss replied quickly: "Zhu Yuzhi, my name."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Real name."
Baitao: "..."
"I understand, boss."
Let’s wait until world peace comes before exchanging real names.
Always keep
So Bai Tao and the boss, oh no, it was Zhu Yuzhi who fell into a cold silence.
It was the company that saved her.
He played tricks inside Bai Tao's body and successfully made Bai Tao frown.
The next moment, the boss's tail came around, the pain eased, and the company calmed down.
Zhu Yuzhi ignored the tail that acted on its own.
There was only Bai Tao in his eyes: "Are you okay?"
"It's fine." But the tail is a little tight.
The distance between the two is getting closer and closer——
“Boom boom boom—”
"Anyone there?"
The bug looked around and saw Bai Tao: "Hi, No. 12, I finally found you."
An uninvited guest flew over. It was No. 1 whom Bai Tao had met at the Huahua Farm before. She remembered that her name was Manny.
Tail tried to run away but was held down by Bai Tao.
He asked the insect: "What's the matter?"
"Good, I'm here to bring you some clothes!"
Baitao: "?"
Manny explained: "Didn't you receive the invitation? On the first of next month, the company's anniversary celebration will be held. This is the dress. Dameng Entertainment welcomes you!"
She said, "This is a surprise our company has prepared for our distinguished guests. Only a few people in the entire Dream City can enjoy this treatment. And here's a little insider news: you are the only one in your company who has this treatment."
This is not a surprise prepared for the distinguished guest, it is clearly a malicious provocation.
The host is weak and the guest is strong. After this incident, if the boss of the company is petty, a fight will start immediately.
Bai Tao smiled gently: "Thank you for your hard work, Manny, do you want to come in and sit down?"
Manny shuddered, remembering Bai Tao's killing manner without blinking, and shook his head violently.
"No, I still have to work. Bye!"
He placed the gift box at the door of the company, flapped his wings and emitted sparks, and disappeared quickly.
Bai Tao stroked her tail and said to the boss, "I'll go get it."
Watching Bai Tao's back disappear, the empty snake tail hit the ground heavily.
