Don't Pick Up Wild People on the Roadside (12)
Unbelievable.
This was the first time Jiang Yuanshi had heard such remarks in his life.
Not only does it eat people, it also reduces heatiness and brings peace of mind?
Different organisms have different effects, right?
Jiang Yuanshi's mind raced, and an idea suddenly struck him: "You're not jealous, are you?"
Z01: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Transfer to manual labor."
Z01:?
"Oh, sorry, just saying it. You always remind me of a certain cat elf, although they are very human-like to a certain extent."
???
Z01 asked three questions: "I don't understand what you are saying."
"That's right, you don't understand. Otherwise, why would you call it a human-machine?" Jiang Yuanshi smiled. "You're probably angry about being ignored."
Z01 retorted, "No, I don't feel anything when Yunqing and B33 ignore me."
Eliminating two options at once, Jiang Yuanshi pondered the only answer, his tone filled with disbelief: "You can't be jealous that I talk to them instead of you, right?"
Z01: "I don't understand jealousy, but I do want to ask you, why don't you ask me questions?"
It’s true.
"First, you've already untied me, so why would I contact you? Secondly, you and I were no longer related at that time, so why would I contact you? Finally, even if I contacted you, I wouldn't be able to hear you speak, so why would I contact you?"
“…”
In just one sentence, Z01's data exploded three times.
Even the human-machine could sense the host's dissatisfaction. Z01 said, "I'm sorry, so you don't want to be bound to me anymore?"
Jiang Yuanshi looked puzzled: "Why are you talking so ambiguously like Yun Qing and the others now? It sounds as if I won't get back together with you."
Z01 didn't understand and just asked, "So you're still bound to me?"
Jiang Yuanshi took a deep breath and said, "It depends on my mood."
"How are you feeling now?"
"generally."
"So how can I put you in a better mood?"
"You... I'm really impressed. First of all, you stopped pretending to be deaf and dumb."
"What about secondly? If I complete all your requests, will you be bound to me?"
He's so persistent.
Z01 you are ooc.
Did you go crazy because you didn’t eat and lack of carbohydrates?
"Z01, is there something wrong with you? You're not usually like this. There are so many hosts in the universe, I can do one more, right?" The data on the wall was even more disorganized than before. Jiang Yuanshi looked up at the sky and thought, "I don't think you're worried that Yun Qing won't have a host to take with her after she's untied, and you're worried about losing your job, right?"
Z01 had been analyzing the situation. When she heard Jiang Yuanshi's speech, her analysis circle froze. She asked, "Is that so?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "Come, let me ask you, have you been leading people on missions all year round without a break?"
Z01: "Yes."
Jiang Yuanshi: "If a creature that does the same thing every day is suddenly interrupted and told that it no longer needs to do it, then the vacancy needs to be filled with new things, otherwise it will feel empty and anxious, not knowing what to do in the future. If it were you, have you ever thought about what you would do after you stop working?"
Z01: "...No."
Jiang Yuanshi: "So you're probably afraid of losing your job and having no clients."
Jiang Yuanshi's words sounded very reasonable. For a moment, Z01 didn't get a better result, so it could only think so.
Jiang Yuanshi comforted him, "Relax, there are many creatures in the universe, and maybe the next one will be more to your liking. Don't settle for going back."
"Thank you for clearing up my confusion, but there are still many things I cannot understand."
"You don't need to understand. You just need to know that you don't have to be bound to me after you unbind. There will be many hosts." Jiang Yuanshi held the door handle. His hand didn't exert any force, but the handle was swinging up and down. Yun Qing's puzzled voice came from outside the door: "Strange, why can't this door be opened? Is it locked? Shouldn't it be untwistable?"
Jiang Yuanshi knocked on the wall and said softly, "Please open the door. There's something else going on with the wall."
"Understood." Z01 fell silent after saying this. The lit walls in the room dimmed back to their original state. The room was completely dark, with only the shadows of the neon lights outside the window dimly shining on the ground through the curtains.
Jiang Yuanshi sighed lightly, calmed himself down, and opened the door.
"So what's going on with this door, B33... uh..."
The bedroom door suddenly opened, and Yun Qing, who was still chattering at the door, suddenly fell silent. Yun Qing tilted her head and met Jiang Yuanshi's eyes. Yun Qing blinked and scratched her head awkwardly. Jiang Yuanshi spoke first, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"Ah, is the door of your room broken? I tried to open it for a long time but couldn't... Uh... That's not what I meant. I just wanted to use the bathroom to take a shower. I was afraid I wouldn't disturb you while you were sleeping, but I heard a loud noise coming from your bedroom just now. I was worried so I wanted to open the door to check, but I couldn't open it... That's it."
Yun Qing's voice gradually weakened. Although what he said was clearly the truth, he still looked guilty in the eyes of others. If Jiang Yuanshi had not known the truth, he would have really thought that Yun Qing was going to do something.
"The door lock must be a bit old. After all, it was found at a junkyard and heavily modified."
"Oh, I see."
"I just woke up after falling down while sleeping. You can take a shower now, but you have to wait a while if you want to wash your clothes. My clothes are not washed yet."
"Oh, okay, thank you."
Jiang Yuanshi stepped aside, but Yun Qing still stood outside the door, staring up at him.
Jiang Yuanshi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Huh? Nothing, nothing." Yun Qing came back to his senses, but his eyes still didn't leave. In the end, he couldn't help but ask: "Why are you so tall? Aren't we all Omegas? Why am I so short?"
As he spoke, he gestured and found that he was just below Jiang Yuan's neck.
"Hmm...it should be the original setting. Jiang Yuan has glandular disease, maybe a genetic mutation?"
Yun Qing twisted his face and gestured above his head with his hands, unwilling to give up: "Really?"
"Why don't you ask B33 about the average height of O in this world?"
Yun Qing's eyes lit up, and he turned to ask B33. After learning that his height was 2.1 centimeters above the average height of Omega, he felt relieved. He tilted his head and looked at Jiang Yuanshi.
Jiang Yuanshi wondered: "What's wrong?" again.
Yun Qing said with a bit of envy: "But you are still so tall. Do you think I will grow taller?"
Are you asking about this world or reality?
Jiang Yuanshi: "I guess so. After all, I'm not that old."
Yun Qing nodded but remained motionless. Jiang Yuanshi had never been stared at so directly since he was a child. Just interacting with people was already unaccustomed to him. Now, he kept up a formal smile and asked, "Excuse me, is there anything else? Aren't you going to take a shower?"
"Your real name isn't Jiang Yuan, right?" Yun Qing answered irrelevantly. Jiang Yuanshi nodded subconsciously, "Is there anything wrong?"
Yun Qing: "I was thinking that calling you Jiang Yuan might not be a good idea. After all, you have a name. What if you ignore me when I call you Jiang Yuan?"
Jiang Yuanshi was about to say no. Although he wasn't an actor, he was quite good at imitating. Unfortunately, before he could open his mouth, Yun Qing's eyes lit up and he said familiarly, "Do you have a nickname? A nickname is fine."
Nickname...
Jiang Yuanshi shook his head: "No, they usually call me by my full name."
"Huh? But there's always a shortened version, like a reduplicated version of the last word. That's what B33 calls me."
That's between you two.
"You really didn't?" Yun Qing asked sincerely. Jiang Yuanshi didn't intend to say his name and denied everything.
"Then...if you don't mind, can I call you Jiang Jiang? You both have the last name Jiang, so there won't be any confusion and you'll know who I'm calling."
“…” You’ve thought it through for a long time.
Jiang Yuanshi said helplessly, "Does it have to be a reduplicated word? You can just say Jiang."
Yun Qing was dissatisfied: "It's weird to call him Jiang. It's not like it's foreign literature."
Jiang Yuanshi smiled helplessly: "Then why don't you ask B33 for his opinion?"
Yun Qing: "Why ask him? I just called your name."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't want to be part of their play, so he said bluntly, "Because this name seems more intimate to me. Are you sure your partner B33 won't get jealous if I call him that?"
"Is it cordial? It's okay. How dare he get jealous... No, who said he was my partner!"
Yun Qing suddenly got angry.
Jiang Yuanshi: "Isn't it?"
Yun Qing: "No, who said it was? Was it that liar B33?"
B33: "My dear..."
B33 suddenly spoke, sounding like she was about to cry again. Yun Qing turned angrily to look at the lost fur ball in Fang's head and accused him, "Why are you crying? Don't pretend to cry, you liar! You took advantage of me and ran away without even a word of confession, and you're still lying and pretending to be weak. If you keep this up, there's really no hope for us! And you!"
Yun Qing was the first to fire a sniper shot at Jiang Yuanshi: "I've changed my mind! I can call you whatever I want. I'll call you Jiang Jiang. I've decided. Not only will I call you Jiang Jiang, I'll also cling to you! Anyway, I'm incompetent and no one loves me. Brother Guizi listens to you, so I'll rely on you! Please take me flying, and after you complete the mission, I'll give Brother Guizi to you. I need a new system that won't lie! Thank you! I'll just borrow the bathroom!"
Yun Qing roared angrily, and everything he said seemed justified, but it also made people feel uncomfortable. Jiang Yuanshi looked at Yun Qing's back as he went to the bathroom, feeling furious.
Jiang Yuanshi sighed deeply. It was really difficult to get along with people.
He walked into the living room and sat on the sofa. The fur ball on TV looked droopy and very depressed, with even a small dark cloud floating above his head.
Jiang Yuanshi rubbed his head, leaned back on the sofa and said, "Stop pretending, everyone has gone into the bathroom."
The dark clouds above Maoqiu's head began to rain.
Jiang Yuanshi: ...
"Honestly, instead of acting for me when you have time, you might as well take this opportunity to learn some love skills. No matter how good you pretend to be a green tea, it's useless if you don't understand the heart of your pursuer. And to be honest, your green tea level is really low, Yun Qing can see it."
B33: …
Jiang Yuanshi: "It can't be intentional, right?"
B33: Rain was falling lightly. "I just want Yun Qing to pay more attention to me. Is it okay to do this on purpose?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "That's fine, but people like you who take advantage of others without confessing and then run away are called scumbags in our place."
B33: "I don't."
"That's exactly what you said. You just said that you confessed to the other person and he thought you were provoking him, but that's just your one-sided statement. I believe Yun Qing more than you. After all, he looks much easier to fool than you. And anyone with eyes can tell Yun Qing's feelings for you. You can't be unaware of that, right?"
“…”
"Even though I don't know the reason and I don't want to get involved in couples' affairs, as an outsider I still want to remind you: don't do anything you'll regret. It won't benefit you or him. Oh, and don't drag outsiders into this."
B33: “I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”
Jiang Yuanshi was too lazy to say more and changed the subject: "Okay, let's change to someone who understands. After all, we are still bound together. I decided to go to the garbage dump later. When I go, can you please check the mechanical parts that can still be used in the garbage dump? I plan to try to make a robot."
B33 Light rain turning to cloudy sky: "What do you want to do? Is it related to the mission?"
"It doesn't matter. I still don't know what the mission is." Jiang Yuanshi, ""
"So what do you want to do?"
Jiang Yuanshi said quietly, "Save electricity. Judging from the way you're doing, you'll probably be arguing every day. Whenever you argue, you'll have to turn on the TV. It's better to make a robot to save some electricity. Plus, you can use it to fight when you get anxious. Don't worry, I'll make it disassembleable. It's easy to put together and take apart, and it'll satisfy Yunqing's pride."
B33 calmed down and asked, "What is your purpose?"
Jiang Yuanshi: "Oh, no more acting, you're being so serious. My purpose is simple. Please cooperate with me. A good relationship makes people progress. If you guys have already agreed, you don't have to drag me into it. Am I part of some kind of play?"
B33's fur trembled, and his dark eyes, which had been staring at Jiang Yuan dimly, closed silently: "...I'm sorry."
“Haha, I didn’t notice.”
"Thank you for your help."
Jiang Yuanshi: "We should be grateful for the trouble we take to do the work."
"Okay. Would you like to bring Yunqing along?"
"Let's ask him about his wishes later. Otherwise, if we act on our own, he'll get mad again, and then it'll all be in vain."
"Yes, but I don't recommend taking him there. The downtown area is still somewhat dangerous."
"Is this place really safe? What if Mu Changkong teleports here and Yun Qing is the only one left? Even with Z01, it would be a horror story. If Yun Qing reacts, we'll be even more inseparable."
"Isn't that a good thing? That way he won't run away."
Jiang Yuanshi sneered, "Your systems' brain circuits are truly abnormal, each one more extreme than the other. Do you want to have a pet or a relationship?"
B33: "Yun Qing is not a pet."
Jiang Yuanshi: "Then don't impose your own intentions on others."
The other party fell silent. Just as Jiang Yuanshi was about to get up and change his clothes, B33 spoke again: "Why? I have changed for him, becoming what he wants. Why can't he be changed by me?"
"There's an old saying among humans: humans are fickle, so why can't he change?"
Who the hell told you to understand it this way?
Jiang Yuanshi was so angry that he laughed: "It turns out there are people who don't understand human language even more than Z01."
Z01, who was named, replied: "Host, I understand what people say, please don't scold me."
