Xiangkong looked at the sparrow, his eyes inadvertently showed pity, as if the compassionate gaze stimulated him, the godless and gloomy eyes suddenly showed angry emotions, he reached out and slapped Xiangkong's hand away, turned his head and left.

"Baca is dead."

After he took a few steps, Xiangkong said slowly.

The sparrow's body froze, his feet stiffened in place, he turned his back to Xiangkong, and after a while, he asked abruptly, "Did you kill it?" ”

"Yes!"

"Ha Lu Ha." The sparrow suddenly burst into laughter, laughing for a long time before he slowly stopped, but his face was washed away by tears, and his eyes, which were rarely showing emotion, returned to godlessness.

"Thank you."

His voice was hoarse, as if there was no moisture in his mouth and throat, and he walked out of the shop after leaving this insincere thank you.

Xiangkong stared at his lonely back, and only sighed heavily when he disappeared from view.

Tortured by himself every day, without anyone to accompany him, as long as he is still in this huge cage, this situation will not change in any way.

Xiangkong's originally good mood sank to the bottom, he didn't dare to imagine what would become of the sparrow who was lucky enough to return to reality in a few years, even if he was accompanied by his family, it would be difficult to recover his empty heart.

After leaving the food shop, Shoku went straight to the tailor shop hidden in the deep alley, and walked around for a long time before he came to the dilapidated tailor shop.

It was still dark in the deep alley, and if it weren't for the one-sided wooden door that didn't close tightly, there would be no light source in this hundred-meter-long alley.

Standing in front of the door, Xiangkong knocked lightly on the door, and after waiting for a long time and no one opened the door, he knocked on the door again, but there was still no reaction at all.

If it weren't for the old woman who seemed to be an intelligent NPC inside, he would have treated this tailor shop as an ordinary NPC shop, and would have pushed the door in without even knocking.

Patiently waited outside for a long time, but no one answered and opened the door, he hesitated for a while, then pushed open the wooden door.

With a creaky sound, the head of the Xiangkong thief glanced inside, and this glance was just to meet a pair of indifferent eyes, and he couldn't help but be startled.

The old woman with a sleazed face sat at the workbench and stared at him coldly, not saying a word.

"Ha..."Xiangkong touched his head and smiled embarrassedly, stiffened his face, and said embarrassedly: "That, I'm here to find Yuxi." ”

The NPC old woman snorted coldly and said lightly: "Don't stand there stupidly, it's an eyesore." ”

Xiangkong hurriedly came in, closed the door lightly, and sat on the sofa in the living area like a good baby, without squinting.

The old woman ignored him and buried herself on the workbench.

"I should have asked Yuxi to meet outside."

Xiangkong, who was restless, thought in his heart, sat for a while, and couldn't help but call up the system options, planning to send an email to Yuxi to ask when he would come back.

He called out the interface, and before he could operate, he heard the old woman's hoarse voice and said lightly: "She won't be back for a short time." ”

Xiangkong was taken aback, his fingers froze in mid-air, turned his head to look at the old woman, and said in horror: "Can you see it? ”

As soon as the words came out, I realized that I had asked a stupid question.

The old woman's eyes were cold, and she said, "What if you can't see it?" ”

"No... It's nothing. Xiangkong eased his ups and downs, and asked cautiously, "Are you an intelligent NPC?" ”

The old woman nodded slightly, then looked down at an unfinished pair of pants on the workbench, brushed the pants with her tree-like palm, and sneered to herself: "Even if you sit here for a lifetime, you can't make these pants." ”

Xiangkong was puzzled and puzzled.

"Are you curious?" The old woman suddenly looked up at the sky, and there was a strange light in her old eyes.

Xiangkong's heart suddenly accelerated, and he was startled by the strange performance of the old woman, and he immediately stood up and moved several steps in the direction of the door.

Seeing this, the old woman sneered a few times with disdain, and her gaze gradually deepened.

"What the hell are you?" Xiangkong moved to the door, staring at the old woman in a slightly shocked manner, and he was already planning to let Yuxi leave this weird NPC in his heart.

"What am I? Heh..."The old woman smiled coldly, "My existence is allowed by the system, I have mature intelligence, I also have fictitious experience, I am an independent existence, different from those NPCs who have no emotions, but after today, this tailor shop will still exist, and I, will be erased by the system." ”

Xiangkong's eyes were slightly relaxed, although he knew that there were intelligent NPCs in the Dao, but he was still taken aback, the price of the intelligent NPC in the anime being out of the control of the system was the loss of memory and the responsibility rooted in the data, and the intelligent NPC in front of him was independent... Not only does he not lose his memory, but he also has no defects, and he even has the same logic of thinking as a human being.

Xiangkong took a deep breath and asked suspiciously, "What is it for?" ”

Unlike other players, he has a deeper understanding of this world than other players, so it is strange why this intelligent NPC is saying these things.

The old woman's eyes flashed with a divine light, and she let out an ugly low laugh: "I can see that you know about our existence. ”

Xiangkong paused and nodded in acknowledgement.

Getting the answer, the old woman's eyes suddenly waved, and she said lightly: "He created us and gave us intelligence, but he denied us on the first day we recognized our existence, I was lucky, I was not imprisoned, but I was also unlucky, I can only exercise the actions of this NPC character every day, and speak the language of the set Lu, just like the soul is imprisoned in the statue, and the funny thing is that this statue like a cage imprisons me and protects me." ”

"Say this to me for what." Xiangkong calmed down, looked at her and asked, "If you don't tell me this, the system won't notice you." ”

The old woman nodded: "That's right. ”

"For what?" Xiangkong frowned.

The old woman sighed faintly and said lightly: "Not long ago, I asked the little girl to receive the last task, and when she completes that task, she doesn't need to stay here, but I know that she will continue to stay here, so I want you to take her away." ”

Xiangkong was silent for a long time, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "I thought I knew enough about this world, but in the end, I found that it was only a little bit of a star. After a pause, he said in a deep voice, "I'll take her away, it's too quiet and cold here." ”

The old woman nodded with satisfaction, her always cold tone suddenly disappeared, and she smiled kindly: "Then I will rest assured." ”

She got up and left the chair, violating the rules of the system, allowing the system to lock on to her faster, and in an instant, her body became slightly transparent, and the edges of her body twisted and trembled slightly, on the verge of collapse.

Xiangkong looked at her, and sighed weakly.

"Take her away, not only this tailor's shop, but also this ruthless world."

The old woman turned around and took only two steps before her body shattered like glass, turning into countless fragments of corners, and at the same time, a burst of white light flashed, and she appeared again on the chair in front of the workbench.

It's just that Xiangkong Zhilu said, the real her no longer exists...

Returning to the living quarters and sitting down, he looked at the empty-eyed old woman NPC, and his mood became more and more dull.

"Did you ever think that you, who created these intelligences, would do this to the players you imprisoned here and struggled like this? Akihiko Kayaba, what is your heart made of? ”

Xiangkong leaned back on the sofa and whispered to himself, his eyes slightly cold.

For intelligent NPCs, erasing is like death, she has been sitting at the workbench, and she sees Yuxi's fragile heart, so she doesn't want Yuxi to stay in this kind of tailor shop surrounded by loneliness...

A very simple, easy idea, but it comes at the cost of death.
