When he woke up, he had a sleepless night—or rather, this was Mercer's state of peace.

The days of crossing into the prototype body are not short, and he has been using this body for six or seven years.

In the beginning, he was occasionally distressed by the black light virus filaments and flesh that were not well controlled, and he also felt uncomfortable because of many habits that were different from ordinary people. But gradually, he realized that this was not a bad change, but that he had eliminated the appearance of human flaws.

No dormancy is required. Being awake all the time is enough to cope with an unexpected situation, and there is no trace of memory confusion due to lack of rest, and he is able to grasp his own existence anytime and anywhere.

As some philosophers believe, man is nothing more than a thinking reed, and when he falls asleep, his consciousness is left with only the most instinctive chaotic reactions, so can he be regarded as his original self? Conceived in this way, one inevitably generates a deepest fear of existence itself.

Fortunately, Mercer is not a philosopher, and he is not a human being from a biological point of view.

The inexplicable dream of last night and the discomfort of losing consciousness reminded him of how he had felt as a human being, but it was only once. What particularly disturbed him was Lu Mingze's eyes, which seemed to have been seen somewhere, but ......

Memories of the past...... In short, it's all in the past, not the present.

Pleasant music suddenly sounded on campus.

The pulse perception immediately spread to all around, and he obtained real-time information about most of the campus while he was still lying in bed.

Accompanied by the sound of the accordion on the campus radio, some strong men and students from the school engineering department are erecting a huge steel frame structure, laying wooden planks, and closing the curtain, which is a grand stage.

For students with dragon blood, dozens of kilograms of steel bars don't seem to weigh more than a chopstick, and the strong men of the school engineering department are undoubtedly the elite of various special forces.

But it's much more than that.

Today, many clubs that are usually chaotic have sprung up at the same time, and they have set up all kinds of simple facilities in an ingenious way, and at first glance it seems to have the grandeur of a Japanese academy festival -- and it is far more than that.

For example, the ACG club, which gathers a lot of science and engineering otaku, has a simple and easy-to-understand name, but except for a few people who can come to the Kassel Academy, who are as poor as Luming Fei Fingal, most of them are still from wealthy families in large countries.

A slightly more obvious table is that the ACG club has now figured out the virtual imaging of all the members of the V family, singing and dancing, which involves virtual imaging technology, real-time sensing and other devices, and the price is not less than one million dollars.

Mercer had the privilege of seeing it. I have to say that in the Kassel Academy, where Norma is an artificial intelligence, students have a lot of hard work on artificial intelligence technology. These virtual singers can even adjust their movements and demeanor through the reactions of the audience around them, and if there are too few viewers, then they will be pitifully cute and begging for attention; If the audience responds enthusiastically to a track, they playfully bow and thank you and ask if they want to do it again.

Fully automated, except for the occasional technician who needs to clean up the cache.

He will also act as a promoter of ACG's recruitment, and sell cute advertisements on the authorized pages of the campus network and forums.

In addition, there are people from the Geological Research Society, who recently hugged Caesar's thigh and obtained a generous amount of funds for club activities, so they did not hesitate to give a copy of the virtual earth in the central main control room of the college, and by the way, the magic change made it possible for geography enthusiasts to peel off the virtual earth layer by layer like peeling an onion, and study the internal strata and structure.

When it comes to geology......

Mercer rubbed his eyebrows, normal people tend to have a strong ability to diverge their thinking, so he can easily associate the forbidden area from all aspects of his life that he doesn't want to think about anymore.

In between the accordions, the piano's crisp and translucent treble keys are set off against the busy students, and the waltz format can't help but make the audience's mood soar.

l‘urvsd‘i。

It is from the soundtrack of the movie "Angel Amelie", composed by the French modern classical composer Jan Tilsen.

Listening to this pleasant music, Mercer looked at the wall clock on the wall and thought for a moment, then got up and went out to the chapel.

According to this scale, it is estimated that there will be a large-scale event organized by the academy today, but he did not receive a notice in advance. Although he didn't know who to send him a notice and what he could do after notifying him. But at least yesterday and Zero agreed to go to the chapel together today to participate in the celebration of the Executive Department......

God knows, it's unbelievable that the dead people in the executive department are actually going to have a celebration.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Waiting for someone?"

A familiar voice came, certainly not the one she was expecting. But there are few acquaintances for her.

Susie's dress is a bit retro, but it's more of a steampunk style, as for why she dresses like this, it is natural to maintain the same tone as Nono walking next to her.

Zero nodded slightly, in response. Then continue to cast your gaze into the distance, filtering through one participant after another.

She is wearing the same skirt today, but the background color is pure black, the skirt is surrounded by white lace, the long white blonde hair is also tied with a black headband, and even some light makeup is applied to her face, so that her overly cold and plain white complexion can be more lively and cute, rather than making people think of ice and snow and inviolable beauty at the first glance.

Susie pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

It's not that she is dissatisfied with Zero's answer, it's just that Zero's obvious little daughter's attitude obviously makes her can't help but connect with her bumpy emotional path, so her heart is somewhat complicated.

"Hey, it's rare to see the 'vacuum queen' in the academy," Nuno, who is very good at profiling, naturally couldn't have noticed Zero's abnormality, but she didn't scream blatantly, but pretended to help Susie fix her hair and whispered in her ear, "I remember that you dressed very carefully today, it won't be thinking about ......"

Before she could finish speaking, Susie glared at her fiercely, and pinched her cheek hard by the way.

With zero hearing, she could even hear everyone in the church clearly, but she didn't react much, just turned her eyes sideways for a moment, and continued to watch for the visitors.

Nono stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, pinched Susie's cheek by surprise, and ran into the chapel with a weird smile.

Seeing that Nono went to Caesar to avoid trouble in the name of chatting, Susie couldn't take revenge immediately, so she had to write down this account in her heart and prepare to settle the account next time we took a shower together.

There were more and more people coming, and Susie had no reason to rub over at the door, so she prepared to go to the seating area where the Lionheart belonged.

"Come on."

Zero's voice was cold, but it was a surprise to her, especially because there was a hint of laughter in it.

Come on? What refueling?

A strong, slender palm lightly touched her shoulder, and her knee-jerk reaction made her want to teach this stranger a lesson with an elbow strike, but a sudden sense of familiarity made her stop before touching the other person's abdomen.

It's Chu Zihang.

How can you confirm the other person without even hearing a voice? There was almost no physical contact, let alone a line of sight, and no images were captured at all. But she just had such an intuition, and suddenly she felt who the other party was.

A slight trace of body temperature that spreads out of the surface of the body? If there is none, maybe there is only the imaginary masculinity? Or can you feel the wideness of the palm and the calluses that you have rarely experienced a few times through two layers of clothing?

No, not that.

She said to herself in her heart. The crimson god of fantasy seemed to have the heart to joke with her, and came up with a strange answer: It was the love in the girl's heart that was perceived.

"Why don't you go in?"

Chu Zihang's steady and calm voice sounded in her ears, of course, it wasn't that the two of them got together, in his opinion, it was just a routine greeting.

"No, now...... I'm ready to go in now. ”

Susie was momentarily flustered by the fantasies in her heart, but then a simple joy emerged like a spring of water.

Although there was no expression on her face, she did feel the joy that filled every part of her.

"Let's go...... Together. ”

Susie, who pretended to be calm, couldn't help but want to glare at Zero - if it weren't for Zero's sudden "come on", how could she have lost her former disguise, so that she was overwhelmed by the thoughts in her heart.

Not far away, Nono even poked out half of his face from his seat, making a mocking grimace. By the way, the thumbs up is self-evident.

Wait! Wait until evening, and I'll let you know why the flowers are so red and why the red-haired shrine maidens are wailing like this!

Susie gritted her teeth in her heart to the extreme, as if some kind of instinctive action, she actually pulled Chu Zihang's arm and walked forward, Chu Zihang was only a little surprised, and did not resist.

It wasn't until she found a seat to sit down that she felt some burning on her cheeks.

Why did she inadvertently do the same thing she did before? Isn't it since he was left behind in the restaurant that time, and he decided to be sober and sober and no longer go to luxury?

Maybe it has something to do with Chu Zihang's apology a few days ago.

She thought so, but the crimson god gave her an honest answer again: No, no...... It's clearly the girl's soft and delicate heart that's doing tricks.

Yu Guang glanced at Chu Zihang, who was consulting with Lan Roester about the celebration, and Susie suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction.

At the very least, the person she was waiting for was already by her side. Although I don't know what is in his heart.

And what about the people Zero has been waiting for?

It doesn't seem that far away.

(I can't hold back...... It's still a matter of time. ）
