The follow-up of OE that "we" expect (Part 1)
The sky was clear in Uptown.
The city wakes up and the conflict begins again, only to be interrupted by the people on the big screen.
A young man named "Jiang Yuan" led the people of Xiacheng District to formally declare war on the company, and used video as evidence to reveal a tacit secret among the public, the common origin relationship between the company and the country, and also revealed a shocking revelation.
Mu Changkong's face appeared on the big screen. It was a surveillance video of Mu Changkong opening the exhibition counter chip and performing a series of operations on the top floor of the company.
No one could have imagined that Mu Changkong was the only one who possessed the real control chip. The next heir of Planet A not only controls the common people, but also his own people, including the current leader. At the same time, the upper echelons received a warning from Country C: they saw the figure of their long-lost youngest son in the news, and questioned why their son appeared in the Lower City District. When they were in a state of panic, the message sent by Mu Changkong informed them of Yun Qing's whereabouts, but why was Mu Changkong the only one who knew? And why is his child now mixed up with people in the Lower City District?
They asked Star A to give a reason, and Star A promised to bring Mu Changkong for a confrontation. Then they found that Mu Changkong had lost contact. The disappearance of one person caused chaos in Star A. Ordinary people vented their long-accumulated grievances and began to protest across the country. The company's stock price plummeted, and no one was willing to abide by the company's rules anymore. People flocked to the company and its shopping malls and started looting. The upper level was overwhelmed and scolded Mu Changkong thoroughly, and an investigation order was issued for him and the current leader.
For a moment, no one paid attention to the downtown area which had long since turned off the big screen and gone invisible.
Amid the chaos, residents climbed up on piles of garbage, supporting each other and moving towards the light.
The natural light was very dazzling, and they all shed tears because they hadn't seen the light for a long time.
The sky is really blue, with white clouds.
The little girl and the little boy were held in the man's arms, one in each. They raised their heads and rubbed their eyes while saying, "Dad! The sky is blue! Just like my eyes!"
Li Ming said with tears in his eyes: "Yes, it is very beautiful. I wish your mother could see it too."
"It's great that I can still see the sky while I'm still alive."
The crowd huddled together, admiring the blue sky, which formed a sharp contrast with the people next door who were parading and looting crazily. It was unknown which enthusiastic citizen interrupted their immersive appreciation of the sky and said, "Hey, you guys over there, are you from the downtown area?"
Lower Town was a little wary, but the kid nodded and replied, "Yes."
It was unclear whether the enthusiastic citizen heard or not, and continued: "No matter who you are, take advantage of the fact that the company is in trouble now and rush to grab it! It's such a good opportunity, it would be a waste if you don't grab it! It just so happens that the door of the shopping mall over there can't be smashed open, so hurry up if you can help, but grabbing things depends on your ability!"
It was an incoherent speech, but everyone in the downtown area understood it. Among them, the shopping spirit of the elderly ladies was awakened, and they rushed to the mall with a group of people and machines, leaving a few people who needed care looking at each other in bewilderment.
The little boy asked Li Ming: "Dad, aren't we going?"
Li Ming: "There are too many people. You will get hurt."
The little girl said, "But grandma said there was something good. Could it be something that would wake up mom?"
Li Ming paused, a little dazed. Because his wife was infected, the internal structure of her body was basically replaced with machinery, but the pollution would spread, and in the end she had to sleep forever in the purification cabin made by everyone.
Li Ming once met people from Shangcheng District. They said they could cure his wife and child, but they wanted him to be a traitor. After hesitating for a long time, he finally refused. He couldn't betray them, and people from Shangcheng District always went back on their words. But he never expected that his child's last intact eye had been quietly transformed by them. He learned the news shortly after catching the One-Eye Man. When he was desperate to compromise, Jiang Yuan appeared.
Jiang Yuan's existence gave him hope. The two children liked Jiang Yuan the most. The young man was very patient. He shuttled between the two places every day. While he was busy, he also played and communicated with the two children regularly. He always had various ways to make the children speak actively. His children were very happy every day and spoke more and more fluently. Although sometimes they still ignored people, Li Ming and others learned from Jiang Yuan not to disturb them. As long as there was no danger, they just let them do what they wanted to do. During this period, everyone also learned how to fish for children without a teacher, and make machines that children were interested in to attract their attention... and so on, all of which were learned from Jiang Yuan.
One day, Li Ming subconsciously asked his children what would happen if they were also implanted with chips?
Children’s thinking is always magical and touching. They said, “Then we will be the same as mom and dad, right? We will be a family, neat and tidy! We will not be left behind.”
"No one is going to leave you behind."
"No, you have." The child looked at him straight and said, "Let's not go up there. Let's all look at the sky together."
Just like Jiang Yuan said, children actually understand everything and have good memory.
On that day, Li Ming found Jiang Yuan and explained the situation. Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, but just patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay if you want to rebel. After all, you can also be a mission within a mission."
It was a very broad idea, which made him ashamed, but unfortunately, before he could do anything, they had already exploded.
"Dad! We want to go, too!" The child poked Li Ming's face. Li Ming came back to his senses. Jiang Yuan appeared beside him and said, "Let's take them there. Let's go together. If it doesn't work, let Jiang Tang take control of the whole place."
Yun Qing was speechless and said, "Is this how this skill is used?"
Jiang Tang said ok nonchalantly, and sat on Yun Qing's shoulder without interest, not willing to get close to Jiang Yuan at all. Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, but led everyone to buy.
After experiencing a more terrifying mode than the supermarket egg grabbing, everyone walked back with their things. When they approached the big hole, someone stopped and said, "Are we... still going back?"
Everyone fell silent, and when they were hesitant, they looked at Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan stared at the sky for a moment and then said, "Everyone go back and pack your things, and we'll go grab the big one."
"Pack your things? What are you going to do? Where are we going?"
Jiang Yuan looked up at the sky and said, "Move, do you want to live on another planet? But maybe we are the only ones there."
It was an adventure, and everyone looked at each other, and the child said, "Can you still see the sky then?"
Jiang Yuan: "Of course, and if we're lucky, we can travel back and forth between the two places in the future."
Jiang Yuan always speaks in an idealistic but confident way. Anyway, staying in the Lower City means starting over, so it doesn't matter where he is.
Everyone rushed back excitedly to pack up their things.
Jiang Yuan and Yun Qing were still standing there when a reminder sounded in their ears:
[Jiang Yuan and Yun Qing completed their missions, restored their identities, and were given a chance to make a wish each...]
Jiang Yuan made a wish that everyone could go to a new planet and live happily and safely.
However, this was rejected, not because it was not allowed, but because it had been detected that the relevant procedures were complete, including the location of the spacecraft, the location of the planet, the new resources...
Just as they were asking if it was Jiang Yuanshi, a line of black and red text appeared before their eyes:
[(Conveyed by Z01) The last gift, I wish everyone in Xiacheng District eternal freedom, peace and happiness - Jiang Yuanshi]
Jiang Yuan and Yun Qing looked at each other and said, "We should be the ones to tell him this. Please tell him that Jiang Yuanshi should live well. If he can't think of a wish, he can live with us. No matter what, remember to come and see us. After all, we don't know what he looks like yet."
The black and red mist turned into an OK gesture and was intercepted again before leaving.
"Is he... leaving?" Yun Qing, who was sitting on his shoulder, said while looking at the sky. The black and red mist replied yes. Jiang Tang did not speak, but lowered his head in disappointment and whispered, "Then... goodbye."
“…”
Suddenly, the black and red mist said, "Perhaps, you can go and say goodbye to him yourself, because you carry the most of his soul."
The next second, the city turned into data and everything stopped.
Jiang Tang found that he was the only one who could move. He felt an inexplicable guidance, so he jumped off Yun Qing's shoulders and started running.
This time he didn't fall at all. He ran and ran, into the downtown area, past Jiang Yuan's house, and into the familiar alley. At the end, he saw a familiar figure and shouted, "Wait for me!"
But this time it's not behind.
The man turned and walked slowly towards him.
Jiang Tang ran over and jumped into the other person's arms. She couldn't see his face clearly but she knew it was him: "Jiang Jiang..." Don't go, don't leave me.
But in the end Jiang Tang just said: "Will you come back?" Before the other party could speak, Jiang Tang continued, "You must come back! You promised me that you would not abandon me. You said, you said that I would have many family members, and you must be one of them!"
Jiang Yuanshi touched Jiang Tang's head and said, "I'm sorry... I, I can't make a promise that I can't necessarily keep."
Jiang Tang's screen showed a small bitter face: "Big liar..., you clearly picked me up, but you want to throw me away again."
Jiang Yuanshi put Jiang Tang on the ground and looked at him for a long time. Finally, he sighed as if admitting defeat and said, "Well, if I succeed, I will come back to see you, but it may take a long time, Jiang Tang, it may be a very long time."
Jiang Tang: "I can wait! You can't take back what you said, pinky promise!"
Jiang Tang stretched out his mechanical hand. No one knew where he learned it from. Jiang Yuanshi smiled and stretched out his little finger, hooked his fingers with him, and teased: "Where did you learn this from?"
Jiang Tang said, "You taught me that. I know you don't remember it, but that was when you changed this new set of clothes for me. But it doesn't matter, I remember it. So you broke your promise again. As a punishment, you must come back to see me."
"You've also been led astray by me." Jiang Yuanshi smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, I promise you."
"It's a deal." The big and the small shook their hooked fingers, and finally Jiang Yuanshi said, "Sorry, I have to leave. You have to live a good life before I come back. After all, you are still the boss."
Jiang Tang patted himself and said, "Soon I'll be the king!"
Jiang Yuanshi burst out laughing: "Okay, okay, you are the little emperor."
"Well, goodbye Jiang Tang, I will try my best to come back, I promise."
"You must come back, along with that oval head! You must protect Jiang Jiang and bring him back, or you'll be doomed!"
"Of course. Goodbye."
The black and red mist surrounded Jiang Yuanshi and then slowly dissipated. Candy Box was the only one left in the alley. He stood there in a daze for a long time before he whimpered and turned back, but he didn't have time to take the first step.
He was lifted up by a ball of red and blue data, which carried him forward and brought Jiang Tang back to Jiang Yuan and Yun Qing.
The group of data touched Jiang Tang's head and left.
Jiang Tang watched them scatter in the air, turning into red and blue fireworks that disappeared in a flash.
The world returned to normal, noisy sounds were heard, and the wind blew across Jiang Tang's face. Jiang Yuan and Yun Qing came back to their senses and watched Jiang Tang waving goodbye frantically to the sky.
Jiang Yuan and Yun Qing didn't know what was going on, but they waved goodbye too.
"Remember to come back and see us, don't die."
[The countdown has ended. The host Jiang Yuanshi has completely left the third world. We are matching you with the fourth world. Please take a rest in the space.]
Jiang Yuanshi opened his eyes and stood in the blank space. He looked at his healthy hands, legs, feet, and eyes. The red color on his blue soul completed his imperfections. Footsteps were heard behind him.
Jiang Yuanshi turned around, looked at the modeling face he hadn't seen for a long time, and said coldly: "The problem over there has been solved, it's time to deal with you."
Z01 paused after taking two steps, not understanding why the other party looked angry. "Excuse me, is there anything I have done that makes you unhappy?"
Jiang Yuanshi narrowed his eyes and said, "Of course I don't dare. After all, you saved me. But I want to know what you want to do? Why did you use your soul to save me?"
Z01: "I don't understand what you're saying. You shouldn't have died in the first place."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Really? Or did you know I would do this, so you kept a backup plan."
Z01: "If you know, why are you asking?"
Jiang Yuanshi took a deep breath and walked towards the other person: "Because I don't understand, why did you save me so much and yet you don't want anything? I remember asking you when I just woke up, but you didn't answer me."
"It seems that you still don't accept other people's kindness for no reason."
"Yes, especially this kind of behavior, exchanging your life for mine, I don't understand."
"You seem to be exaggerating. I am very powerful, so saving you is not as costly as you think."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't quite understand what he was asking, but he felt so depressed that he couldn't explain it. He wanted to cut his palm in anger, but in the end he just pinched his face.
He pinched very hard, leaving bloody marks on his face. At the same time, Z01's face deformed and the same marks appeared.
Jiang Yuanshi frowned and questioned: "Then what do you think is going on? Why am I injured but you also have marks, and I can't even feel the pain, but you are frowning?"
Z01 said nothing.
Jiang Yuanshi grabbed the other person's collar and said dissatisfiedly: "Who told you to do this? I don't need it! I don't need anyone to save me! Do you want to use your life to bind my life? What do you want to do? "
Jiang Yuanshi was a really strange human. He was not happy even though he was being protected and had a scapegoat. He was clearly questioning the other party angrily, but tears were falling from his eyes. What did this mean? Z01 didn't understand. He seemed to always make this human cry, but this time he was not as curious as before. He just felt... this was not what he wanted.
If he had to give an answer, Z01 would choose to tell the truth.
"If I say that I don't want you to die, and only your existence makes me feel the reality of survival, can you understand?"
?
Jiang Yuanshi's questioning movements stopped, his eyes showed confusion, tears unconsciously fell from his eyes and hit Z01's hands. It seemed that he didn't understand. How should he express his thoughts? Z01 was puzzled. He quickly searched the database in his mind and finally seemed to find a suitable answer.
She said: "I miss you. The time I spent with you in the simulation was very short. I miss you very much."
For a moment, Jiang Yuanshi seemed to have pressed the pause button. His anger stopped abruptly, and was replaced by a look of confusion. Even his tears stopped flowing automatically.
Z01 always made incomprehensible, shocking and abstract statements. Jiang Yuanshi didn't know how to respond. His brain was spinning like crazy, and then the signal stopped. In the end, he could only say dryly: "What does this... have to do with my question...?"
It seems that the host still doesn't understand.
Z01 felt that he might not be able to speak human language, and just kept repeating the four words "I miss you".
Over and over again, like a tape recorder, he stared at Jiang Yuan stubbornly, trying to convey his meaning and get a response.
That look was too deep, as if it wanted to devour him. Jiang Yuanshi felt that the other party had made a mistake, so he silently let go of his hand, smoothed the wrinkles on his collar, slowly stepped back and said, "How about... you calm down? Something seems to be wrong with you."
Z01 also felt something was wrong. Why didn't Jiang Yuanshi answer him? What did he need the other party to respond to?
Jiang Yuanshi took a step back, and Z01 followed him, until Jiang Yuanshi had nowhere to retreat and was stuck to the edge of the space, feeling inexplicably panicked.
Z01's face moved closer and closer. The host's eyes were amber and very beautiful. He saw himself in his eyes.
Jiang Yuanshi felt his face was wet, as if he had been licked by some large animal.
Z01 swept away the tears that had not yet dried on Jiang Yuan's cheeks, and said in the other's incredulous eyes: "You said that love is longing."
