Chapter 36: One Month!
The pen www.biquge.info sat quietly on the computer chair, the leather cushion had become yellow due to time and lack of care, and occasionally there were cracks in a few places, and the shapeless sponge inside was ugly up, desperately trying to make the crack bigger
The dirt accumulated on the table in front of him had also condensed into lumps, and the position of the various power cords wrapped under his feet was even covered with cobwebs at the moment......
Dusty computer screens, keyboards, mice, stereos, give people a sense of decadence in old photos, Leo's palm gently rubbed against the glass wall full of water next to it, and after the mobile phone connected to the data cable was somewhat warm, he pressed the power button on the side a little rusty
After the concise Huawei boot LOGO disappeared,The long-lost Arabic numeral virtual password keyboard appeared on the screen that was still a little dim,After trying a few times,Leo gave up,After thinking about it, he put his thumb on the fingerprint unlocker like he tried,Fortunately,After the familiar "ding" sound,The desktop densely packed with programs finally appeared in front of you
Subconsciously glanced at the signal at the top,Although a little stunned, Leo was pleasantly surprised to find that the 4G mark was still there,I didn't have time to think about whether it was in arrears,I swiped my fingers and tried several times, and finally synchronized the time and date with the cloud
After reading it several times in disbelief, Leo rubbed his eyes and asked in his mind
"System, what's going on, there's absolutely no way I'm wrong about the time, we've been living in Nice for more than three years, but should you explain to me why we've only spent three months here?"
"The universe is a multi-dimensional Leo, human beings always ridiculously think that time is constant, is the universal rule of the universe, this idea of just beginning to learn to understand the universe is stupid and naΓ―ve, now you don't need to understand this, it is difficult for me to explain to you in human language vocabulary, you just need to understand that the result of the asynchronous passage of time, a month here, another continent will pass for about a year!"
After a moment of silence, he threw the charging phone back to the table, and Leo leaned back
"Yes, it doesn't matter, what I want to know is, I ...... Will I be able to go back? β
This time there was no hesitation, I don't know why, maybe it was guilt or something else, the system that rarely called the host and preferred to call Leo's name directly said unusually definitely
"Of course, you have to know that the game doesn't end after my master's intervention, you have about a month, a month here, during which my master will resolve the conflict between him and his friend, and then the game must go on, at the same time...... Leo, the obliteration of that mission is still there......"
"So...... I mean, if I can accomplish this mission in the future, will I still be able to travel back and forth between the earth and that land? You know, this is very important to me."
"I'm sorry, at least at the moment my system doesn't have the corresponding setting conditions, according to the original setting, in the end, one of your rewards can choose to return to Earth, but there is no such ...... as you are asking for now"
"I see!"
Standing up, Leo opened the curtain slightly, compared to the spring on the continent of Nice, the earth is in the hottest July at this time, his eyes are blazing looking at the earth under the hot sun, he seems to ask casually
"So, the warehouse function can still be used, right? I feel this way, does it mean that I can take something back from Earth, just a month from now? β
"Nope! After this incident, anything that breaks the original rules will not be allowed to happen again, weapons, technology, everything related to it that will affect the balance will not be able to be carried, of course, as compensation for this accident, other types of things are okay after I have screened, of course, there is no restriction on taking items from the warehouse here! β
Although he had some psychological preparations before, but after hearing the words of the system, Leo was still a little unwilling and gloomy, since the obliteration task exists, it means that the difficult challenge in front of him is far from over, and in the last second, he still imagined that if he could return with a large number of firearms, the war would become simpler, but now, both sides of the game are not yet happy......
Don't think about these for a while, Leo suddenly remembered something, turned around and walked to the bedroom for a while, then grabbed a black handbag and a white card in his hand, and threw himself directly into the sofa regardless of the dust, and said helplessly
"Okay, I can understand what you said, but I always have to live this month, life needs communication and money, I'm not the kind of fairy in the novel, but now, you have turned me into this, ID card, bank card, all the documents I can't use, even an idiot can see that this is not the same person at all"
"Before choosing you to participate in the game, I observed humans for a long time, Leo, and you always say that technology changes life, believe me, it's not a problem at all......"
Before he finished his words with a faint pride tone, the object in Leo's hand slowly floated in the air, like the slightest decomposition and reassembly, and in less than a second, just when he thought he was dazzled, the thing returned to the palm of his hand
As if thinking of something, Leo looked at the card in his hand again in disbelief, the first thing that caught his eye on the ID card, the appearance was still very different from the past, and he was himself in front of him, as did his driver's license and passport! Even the signatures on the back of all bank cards have changed from Zhang Yang to Leo......
"Damn, forging documents is punishable, and this magic can be easily debunked anywhere there is an internet!"
"Don't accuse me of my greatness for your stupidity, Leo, believe me, in human technology, everything in your hands is the most real thing, as you said, the Internet, this childish and unguarded thing allows me to easily modify everything about you, and now you are Leo, and ...... To compensate and make it easier for you, I've changed something on my own initiative, look at the thing you have called a passport! β
"Uh???"
I didn't pay attention to it in a trance just now, and when I picked up my passport again, the familiarity that I had lost for a long time disappeared, both the material and the thickness were different, and the color of the cover also changed to blue, and I opened the cover with wide eyes......
Soon Leo's roar was heard in the living room
"Why don't you ask for my consent system, damn it, have you ever seen anyone with a passport from the United States of America, and then have an ID card, and you're even ashamed to tell me that it's true, are you listening to me, oh my God, Leo Chang, it's still English, why can I read all these bird languages, you know that I've never had a level 4 in English!!"
β¦β¦
For a long time, Leo sat on the sofa in a daze, his expression was still a little blank, and he finally figured out from the system's explanation, whether it was a passport or an ID card, it was all true, and he was now very strange that he had the dual national identity of the United States and China at the same time, yes, he understood that China did not recognize dual nationality at all, but the fact is so magical, under the system's arbitrary actions, the technology that human beings rely on to survive has become an accomplice, that is to say, his identity is impeccable
As for English, with the help of the system, as when he first came to the continent of Nice, as long as the text has not left the realm of one or two dimensions, listening, speaking, reading and writing in any language is not a problem for Leo......
Well, for the kindness of the system or the willful Leo gave up smartly, after all, it is not a bad thing for him to have an extra identity, even in daily life, everyone always wears a mask, right?
Shook off his handbag, looked at the dirty room, Leo didn't have the nature to clean up at all, thought about it, turned around and went to the wardrobe for a while, and changed into jeans, sneakers and T-shirts a little rusty, the difference in height made the clothes a little awkward and uncomfortable, and with melancholy, he folded and re-put away the set of dresses he was wearing for engagement
Jumping on the spot, the roof that he used to think was very high was easily touched, and Leo clenched his fists to find that his modified attributes still existed, but he had seen too much, and he had now lost all interest in the bottom line
The abdomen passed through the brain, and soon after the tension, there was a clear feeling of hunger, and he put all the documents and cards in his bag, and after hesitating for a moment, Leo still took out his passport and stuffed it into his butt pocket alone, otherwise it would always be troublesome to see it with the ID card
Thanks to the blessing of indifference between neighbors in this world, plus three months is not too long, Leo picked up his mobile phone, probably scanned hundreds of messages and missed phone tips, his parents divorced and orphaned for a long time, he didn't have any real friends at work, and he made up a random message that he didn't bring his mobile phone to the scene and said that he was going to travel after the group message, and then looked for the address book, and dialed a phone call to a colleague who was once able to speak, and briefly explained a few words, In the other party's somewhat regretful tone, after confirming the news of his "dismissal", he completely let go of everything......
After finding the door car key on the shoe cabinet, Shi Shiran pushed open the somewhat dry security door, Leo understood that in a month of long or short time, he had to adapt to life again
There was a funny accident when I went out, when I was waiting for the elevator, there was a neighbor who seemed to have a familiar face, and the two chatted all the way on the surface, but until they went down to the underground parking lot Leo didn't remember the person's name, and the neighbor didn't have any dismays about not seeing Leo for three months, as if in this world and the country, human beings, as social animals, only retained that meager relationship with each other......
With complicated thoughts, Leo walked to his parking space with his memory, the Tiguan, which had almost become a street car white, could no longer see the original color, kicked the somewhat soft tires, he was too lazy to wipe them, ignited, tried the wipers and liquid glass can still be used, slightly cleaned the front gear, turned on the headlights, kicked the accelerator, the long-dormant engine let out an excited roar, and the slight smell of gasoline rushed out
A short, familiar and strange life is about to unfold in front of Leo......
