69. The real body of the system (1/4)
69. People from another world and people in the universe
Xia Qiudong suddenly realized that everyone, whether it was the Oda family or the Dongluo company, underestimated this girl. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Uesugi Alice -
No, it's not.
After Xia Qiudong and Alice returned to Yakumoso, Alice grabbed her arm and dragged her all the way to the rooftop, and then, Alice patted her small breasts that had not yet begun to develop, and looked down on all the people, including Xia Qiudong - and the one who was watching all this.
"My name is Alice H. Uesugi!"
Then he said something that made Xia Qiudong stunned:
"I'm not interested in ordinary humans, if you have people from the universe, people from another world, people from the future - as long as you think you are an interesting person, or someone with an interesting story around you, then come to me! Above! ”
Although Xia Qiudong doesn't know the situation on VV's side now, he must be monitoring them here by some means, and after hearing Alice's amazing speech, he will be stunned and confused.
Speaking of which, it is indeed written in the data of the system that Alice is a 'radio wave system'.
The so-called radio wave system is the kind of person who always has incredible ideas and speaks words that only he can understand.
Therefore, Xia Qiudong did not answer immediately, but looked at her quietly, looking forward to what she was going to say next.
Sure enough, Alice changed her tone and asked a question that seemed inexplicable to VV and others who were monitoring all this:
"In this passage of mine, there is this untenable refutation, Mr. Driver, where do you think there is a mistake?"
At the moment when Alice's words just fell-

[1. Pretend to know nothing and get past]
[2. Answer Alice's question correctly]
――Please Select――
Slow World.
Xia Qiudong stared blankly at this choice divergence.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, countless reasoning surfaced in his mind, and finally converged into one thing-
Xia Qiudong suddenly remembered that after initially completing the strategy and 'three years of blood earning' task, a mysterious voice appeared to give him a reward, the current situation, and the system in front of him.
Xia Qiudong wrote novels before he crossed over, and he was both an author and a reader, and he often complained about a place in the systematic flow of novels where the logic did not make sense.
That is, why can the protagonists of the crossing accept their own 'crossing' as a matter of course, and at the same time accept a 'system' in their heads as a matter of course?
In the past, Xia Qiudong, as a writer, often complained about this, but because readers basically didn't care about the origin of the crossing and the system, they just wanted to read a happy and cool article, so they didn't care about it when they wrote.
Yes, Xia Qiudong has always thought that his current crossing is actually a certain world, a novel written by a certain street author, and the title of the book may be called "My Strategy is No Problem".
Therefore, he chose to ignore these and live honestly.
The reason why he can't raise his motivation and keeps belittling himself when he is obviously talented is largely because he reasoned about this.
The man named Xia Qiudong, everything he is doing his best now, and everything in the future, is just someone's story.
Even his current idea is a story written by someone.
So, the reason for the crossing, why a system pops up in my head, I don't need to care about it at all.
Until confronting Alice.
Face this sentence said by Alice.
A terrible thought formed in his mind.
Could it be-
"System, you're actually ...... Alice? ”
After Xia Qiudong said this, he waited silently for nearly a minute, and then-
Here comes the answer.
The voice, the unfamiliar female voice that gave Xia Qiudong a reward last time, said:
"Please select."
He didn't directly tell Xia Qiudong his identity, but Xia Qiudong knew that he guessed correctly.
System...... It's Alice!
All the unnatural, seemingly spoof-like things that I encountered after crossing over - the comic called "My Strategy Is Problematic" (Note: see Chapter 40) - can all be explained.
Of course, there is no hurry now, because Xia Qiudong is now facing the test of the system-Alice.
Presumably, if she can successfully answer these questions, Alice will tell him everything she wants to know.
"My Raiders...... No problem. ”
A confident smile once again appeared on Xia Qiudong's cheeks.
Vaguely, he had a feeling that his strategy for Yamato, and all the things that had happened so far, were just the prelude to the 'real story'.
So, let's 'tackle' Alice's questions now.
"I'm not interested in ordinary humans, if you have people from the universe, people from another world, people from the future - as long as you think you are an interesting person, or someone with an interesting story around you, then come to me! Above! ”
There is a logical error in what Alice said, and Xia Qiudong must find out and give the correct answer.
-- I don't have to think about it at all.
If you want to ask why.
In the past, Xia Qiudong, who is a writer of street novels, has written similar analyses.
The answer - The logical error in this passage is that it is a 'cosmic man' and a 'otherworldly man'.
Xia Qiudong chose option two.
The slow world ended, looking at the bright smile on Alice's face, Xia Qiudong knew that his idea was absolutely right.
"The mistake is that the 'cosmic people' and the 'people of another world' coincide."
"Why? What's wrong? ”
Xia Qiudong calmly said his own explanation.
When you think of 'people from other worlds', what do you think of?
Due to the influence of various fantasy works, most people who say "people from other worlds" will think of "a medieval world with magic".
The Brave and the Demon, Summoned and Summoned, this is a classic theme for those who write stories.
But-
Is someone from a 'medieval-like world with magic' really a real 'otherworld'?
Not.
Mention must be made here of the 'cosmic man'.
We all know that the universe is infinitely vast, that is, no one can deny that there is such a planet somewhere in the distant universe.
A society is like the Middle Ages, where there are magic, demon kings, and brave people.
Yes, if you think about it this way, does the classification of 'cosmic people' and 'otherworldly people' suddenly become ambiguous?
Ignoring the confusion of VV and the Oda family who heard the conversation between the two, they all cut off contact anyway, Xia Qiudong calmly explained to Alice.
Alice nodded.
Then he clapped his hands.
――Congratulations~Correct answer~――
Looking at the characters that popped up in the system, Xia Qiudong knew that his reasoning was indeed correct.
Alice! She's the system!
-I'm sorry.,Even though it's split from Alice.,I'm also obeying Alice's orders.〜
-But I'm not Alice--Oh
...... In short, the satisfaction of reasoning correctly, and the sense of anticipation of what will happen next, suddenly filled Xia Qiudong's chest.
Under Xia Qiu's gaze, Alice kept smiling and asked the next question.
"Then ask the question, since the difference between a cosmic person and a person from another world is so ambiguous...... Mr. Driver, what kind of person do you think can be considered a 'real person from another world'? ”
