The bad ending of the stand-in novel (XI)
Jiang Yuanshi finally fell asleep amidst the system's persistent storytelling.
Sleeping very soundly.
…
Jiang Yuanshi woke up in fright.
He opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. The pounding sound of his heartbeat reflected the excitement of the dream, but he did not remember the specific content of the dream at all. He only remembered that from the first perspective, a kind-faced grandmother and a thin girl were slowly walking towards him. At the moment of contact, his eyes blurred and his consciousness became dazed. When he came to his senses, he had become a stranger.
He looked at Jiang Yuan's body hugging his family, and Jiang Yuan was crying.
"Thanks……"
Jiang Yuan looked up at him with a smile on his face.
The figures of his family members turned into black mist, extending and entwining Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan's eyeballs sank into black vortexes, shedding tears of blood, and he mechanically repeated "Thank you..."
The black mist devoured Jiang Yuan, making a chewing sound.
Then, light came and dispelled the darkness.
The black fog burned and turned into blood, and the light enveloped Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuanshi's eyes were stinging. Blurred, he caught sight of a festering human figure kneeling in a pool of blood, slowly saying, "Thank you, thank you..."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't remember any other scenes, not even how he was woken up by the fright.
Jiang Yuanshi sat up, pinched his eyebrows, rubbed his eye sockets, and could only hear a buzzing sound in his ears.
"morning--"
"How many times have I told you to learn to be grateful? You're so proud of your words, can't you even say thank you?"
"You should say thank you to those who truly help you, and know when to say what to whom."
…
"Thank you, thank you. What else can you say besides thank you?"
Serious male and female voices alternated and mixed together. Jiang Yuanshi pressed his ears hard, trying to suppress the sound.
Suddenly, his movements were stopped. A deep, mechanical male voice came from his ear, saying without emotion: "Good morning, host. Your posture is incorrect. Rubbing your ears excessively can easily cause soft tissue injuries."
Jiang Yuanshi turned his head and saw Shen Shi looking at him expressionlessly. He didn't open his mouth, but there was a voice chattering in his head.
"Searching for ear rubbing tutorials - Rubbing your ears this way is equivalent to doing health exercises for the whole body. Re-searching - Health care should start with babies, ear rubbing exercises for young children..."
“…”
Jiang Yuanshi was suddenly brought back to reality.
"No thanks, I just felt a little uncomfortable in my ears."
The system stopped playing the tutorial and said, "My ears are uncomfortable and need care. We recommend that you follow the tutorial."
What are you doing? Are you doing ear exercises? Children usually do ear exercises with the help of their family members.
"No, and I don't know much about the degree." Jiang Yuanshi declined politely.
"Okay, understood." The system understood. "The video is being transferred to your consciousness."
?
Oh no, I have a picture in my mind.
Jiang Yuanshi was watching the video in a strange way.
So humans and machines really cannot communicate with each other.
Jiang Yuanshi was helpless. Facing the sincere voice of the system, he followed the video in his mind and did a set of ear-rubbing exercises, as well as a set of Ba Duan Jin (Eight-Section Brocade) that only moved the upper body.
After the operation was completed, Jiang Yuanshi leaned on the sink with one hand and brushed his teeth with a look of despair.
The young man in the mirror had soft features, his bangs lightly brushed his eyebrows, his double eyelids were deep, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly, his eyes were big and round, very clean, and looked a little cold when he was not smiling, but more of a gentle and deep feeling.
His youthful experiences did not erase Jiang Yuan’s hope.
Jiang Yuanshi recalled Jiang Yuan in his dream, his dull eyes after the light appeared, and he was grateful for the light like a puppet.
No matter how I think about it, I feel uncomfortable.
The young man's eyes in the mirror lost their gentleness and turned into a cold look.
"Brushing your teeth for a long time is not good for your teeth."
The young man's eyes suddenly became clear, and he quickly spat out the toothpaste, rinsed his mouth, and began to roll up his sleeves to wash his face.
After completing the operation, he quickly turned around and left without giving the system a chance to play the teeth brushing exercise.
Jiang Yuanshi walked into another ward and asked, "Mr. System, has the survival rate and sobriety rate of Jiang Yuan's family changed?"
System Z01 replied: "Sorry, we still can't find the answer, but the system predicts the probability will increase to 88.8% after using the function card."
Jiang Yuanshi: “So many?” It soared from single digits, and the number is considerable.
System: "The effects of peerless-level function cards cannot be affected by the world or the plot, except for human factors."
Jiang Yuanshi sat down between the two beds. "That means, excluding human error, the probability of Jiang Yuan's family dying is essentially zero. Is that right?"
System: "Yes, but it does not include awakening. The rescue card can only guarantee that you are out of danger."
Jiang Yuanshi: "That's enough. Now that I'm awake, I don't know what to do."
System: "Excuse me, host, what do you mean?"
Jiang Yuanshi shrugged: "How should I put it... Jiang Yuan's family is quite close, but I'm actually not good at getting along with people, especially with people who are so close to me."
The system couldn't understand, so Jiang Yuanshi's communication with Gu Zhi, the system and others was almost unobstructed.
Jiang Yuanshi and Gu Zhi were not very familiar with each other, so it was quite simple to play the role of Jiang Yuan in the other's eyes. He mainly used a novel routine template. As for the system, "You are not a human."
System: ...It makes sense, but there's something strange about it.
"Do you need me to search for a template for you to get along with your family?" the system asked stubbornly.
Jiang Yuanshi waved his hand, "No need, I can't act even if I had one. After all, I'm not an actor. Let's just take it one step at a time."
"Okay." The system received the answer without asking any more questions, but continued to advance. "May I ask what the host plans to do next?"
Jiang Yuanshi thought for a moment, "Let's get treatment while waiting for Gu Zhi to take over. Once he and Bai Yueguang are well, Jiang Yuan won't have to worry about anything. Then, I won't have to rely on Shen Shi's protection anymore. I can transfer him to another hospital for treatment. Then, it won't be my business to go back to school, work, and live with my family."
Jiang Yuanshi planned Jiang Yuan's schedule very comprehensively, as if Jiang Yuan would start his own life after he left.
For some reason, the system no longer reminded me that "this world is not real."
The biggest requirement of the Book Transmigration Bureau for the novel world is to operate normally until completion, so that it can be provided to readers in other dimensions. The Book Transmigration Bureau absorbs the readers' wishes and transforms them into energy for running the Book Transmigration Bureau, system wages, host recruitment and wish-making opportunities.
A normal novel world will be replayed over and over again like a TV series. The story after the ending and the operation of unconscious NPCs consume too many resources, so no one knows what the world will be like after the original work is completed.
Jiang Yuanshi is just one of the hosts in this world. After he really completes the mission, everything will start again, waiting for the next host to appear, and start a new direction while making up for the plot, so as to gain new power of will.
After all, the energy consumed by the book patch department to recruit hosts is very little. Death and rebirth, the wishes made by the host, are nothing more than mayflies and dust to the higher dimensions.
The system did not inform the host of this. This is an illegal statement. According to the superiors, this statement will undermine the host's enthusiasm and affect efficiency.
When Z01 looked at Jiang Yuan, he could not judge this host.
"By the way, Mr. System, I'll handle the game matters myself."
The system was called back. "The game was completed last night and will be released at noon today. You don't need to worry. Please rest and recuperate."
Jiang Yuanshi's eyes lit up, "So fast? That's amazing, you're worthy of it."
Even the system couldn't resist the compliment, "Host, thank you so much. The system covers multi-world data and functions. Making games is just a program."
"Higher dimension? It seems that future creatures will have a lot of convenience in their work. However, I'll be the one to handle any bugs or modifications to the game later on. After all, it's your turn now."
"What?"
Jiang Yuanshi blinked and said innocently: "I will fix the bugs in the game, and you will have to fix the bugs in the novel world. Gu Zhi should come to find Shen Shi to talk about love after he takes office tomorrow."
Then I remembered that I was performing Bai Yueguang Shen Shi's system in place of Bai Yueguang: ...
This is harder than bringing a host.
The second day.
The press conference for Gu Zhi to take over as CEO was held smoothly.
During the press conference, Gu Zhi explained the rumors about him being a illegitimate child, saying that he was abducted and left the Gu family when he was young, and was found again after staying in an orphanage for a while. However, because he was a child who returned halfway, some people did not recognize him, and naturally the rumors of his illegitimate child arose.
There were also hints in his words about being ostracized by his brothers and sisters and having to live cautiously.
Gu Zhi became a hot topic because of his handsome face.
There are many people who watch the show and eat melons, and there are also many people who look at the face.
A beautiful face can always deceive people, even if it is a small part. People who like Gu Zhilian interpreted this statement in depth and said that it is not easy to be in a wealthy family and they feel sorry for his brother.
Those who don’t know would think that Gu Zhi is about to make his debut.
Jiang Yuanshi glanced at the trending searches and had a feeling that Gu Zhi would appear on a dating variety show with Bai Yueguang in the future, and then there would be a wave of marketing.
The author can even write a new romance novel for them, relying on the sweet love to attract a wave of sugar-crushing people, and then whitewash a small group of people.
Jiang Yuanshi even thought of a way to whitewash the author, but it seems that the author did not do so. He just took the money and ran away at the speed of light.
Time can wash away many things, and both good and bad things may become faded.
Fortunately, the author didn't live to see the day of his whitewashing and was directly swept away, without causing any further annoyance, Jiang Yuanshi thought.
[Warning: The protagonist is about to arrive. Please prepare the host Jiang Yuanshi and system Z01.]
Jiang Yuanshi was stunned: "Mr. System, this isn't from you, is it?"
System: "It is the main system, which usually provides prompts in important situations."
Jiang Yuanshi saved the file and closed his computer, frowning and asking, "So, is Gu Zhi going to have another bug?"
Horrible remarks. The system replied, "...Gu Zhi and Shen Shi's plot is now the main plot."
Jiang Yuanshi said "Oh" and then quickly responded: "So there really is nothing for me to do down there, right?"
System: “Yes.”
Jiang Yuanshi patted the system's arm and said, "Good luck to you, system."
system:"……"
Jiang Yuanshi: "Don't worry, just tell me what to do in your head. I can still provide action guidance."
The system inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, "Thanks for your help."
After the system finished speaking, it controlled Shen Shi's shell and left. His back looked extremely heavy.
"You'd better apply for a salary increase, Mr. System." Jiang Yuanshi said silently.
The system nodded, its emotionless tone inexplicably vicissitudes: "Okay."
Jiang Yuanshi: ...
Forcing machines to behave like humans is also abstract. I hope there will be no bugs.
Gu Zhi arrived downstairs at Shen's Hospital, holding his phone in one hand and watching Shen Shi leave the ward with an obscure expression.
Jiang Yuan sent Shen Shi away in a wheelchair. Before leaving, he patted Shen Shi's arm and waved to him. Shen Shi bent down and leaned forward skillfully. Jiang Yuan reached out and picked up the crumbs at the end of Shen Shi's hair, and straightened the other's loose hair tie.
Jiang Yuanshi tied the man up again and tightened it: "Chen Shi has a rubber band, why do you have to tie your hair with a rope?"
System version of Shen Shi: "Cultivate human limbs."
Jiang Yuanshi didn't expect the reason to be so pure, so he smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, keep going."
The system version of Shen Shi raised a few pixel-sized smile, "Okay, goodbye."
It was still quite scary to have a fake smile on one's face. Jiang Yuanshi did not discourage the system's enthusiasm for learning, but just waved goodbye.
Gu Zhi watched the surveillance video and saw Jiang Yuan showing a gentle and doting smile to Shen Shi. Shen Shi smiled back embarrassedly, and the two said goodbye like a couple, and he was out of breath.
Is Shen Shi's type the type he likes Jiang Yuan?
Gu Zhi was so angry that he had a headache.
When did Jiang Yuan get close to Shen Shi? Jiang Yuan never smiled like this to others, she only did this to him, only in front of him.
When did they get together?
Did Jiang Yuan really think he was free? They hadn’t even broken up yet!!!
