Chapter 22: Identity grabbing
Shiraishi was woken up by a shrill alarm clock.
When he opened his eyes, he saw an old-fashioned clockwork alarm clock next to his head, and it was the time to set it, and the metal pendulum was frantically tapping on the bell caps on either side.
Shiraishi was so noisy that his eardrums hurt, he reached out and pressed the alarm clock, pondered for a while, didn't understand how to turn it off, and had to twist the trigger time to a few hours later, which successfully stopped the noise.
Turning over and sitting up, pushing away the quilt piled up on his body, Bai Shi first looked around, looked at the bachelor apartment of about 20 square meters, and then looked down at "himself" fat beer belly, and raised his hand curiously and patted twice.
When the Q version assistant answered his question, he used the practice of "replacing Fujie Akiyoshi to go back to the virtual life", so Shiraishi was not too confused about the current situation.
If you have to describe it, this may be the virtual world that Yakai fabricated to assimilate Fujie Akiyoshi, and he penetrated into Fujie Akiyoshi's body and was about to start a life that belonged to Fujie Akiyoshi.
Shiraishi tried to summon the light screen, and this time, it actually succeeded.
He habitually clicked on the taskbar and read it again:
[Stage 2: Eliminate Fujie Akiyoshi's obsession and prevent it from being assimilated by the sea]
Eliminating obsessions is easy to understand, combined with the "stage one" specially arranged by the system, as long as this period of life goes smoothly and there are no regrets, it should be achieved.
But how to stop Fujie Akiyoshi from being assimilated? In what way will Linghai assimilate people?
Just as he was thinking, there was a sound of zira-zila-rubbing on the ground next to him.
Shiraishi sat on the low bed, and when he looked over, he saw a pink teddy bear with a finger length, struggling to drag a knife much longer than it, approaching Shiraishi's side.
One person and one bear looked at each other unexpectedly.
The teddy bear made a move, and suddenly his facial features were huddled together, and he roared angrily, "Give me back your body, you robber!" ”
As soon as it exerted its strength, the sharp kitchen knife was slowly lifted by one centimeter, Bai Shi's eyes narrowed, and he immediately bent down, grabbed the handle of the knife, and snatched the knife in his hand.
The teddy bear's two round plush hands couldn't hold anything at all, and he was disarmed defenselessly.
Shiraishi ignored its hoarse cry and carefully examined the still bloody knife in his hand.
This thing is quite powerful, and it can actually go from the world of consciousness created by Fujie Akiyoshi himself to the current virtual world that is eighty percent made by Tatsumi......
Thinking of this, Shiraishi suddenly had an idea.
He summoned the light screen and tentatively brought the kitchen knife closer to the backpack icon.
As soon as the thought moved, the sharp-edged kitchen knife was sucked in with a whoosh, turning into an icon in the backpack.
[[Attack] Bloodstained Kitchen Knife]
[Durability: 100/100]
[Use: Can be used to attack objects or spirits]
[Notes: A magical knife somewhere between the real and the unreal.] It can do what the kitchen knife can do, and it can do what the kitchen knife can't do.
"......", although it is a tasteful item, it is the first permanent equipment to buy, and overall, Shiraishi is quite satisfied.
The teddy bear on the ground was still jumping angrily, and Shiraishi put away the light screen, picked it up, and shook it a few times.
The stuffed bear has never been able to make an effective resistance, so Shiraishi boldly asked directly, "Are you Fujie Akiyoshi?" How much do you know about this place now? Also, tell me a little about your life experience. ”
"Why!"
The teddy bear was very irritable, his soft cotton-filled belly rose and fell, and after a moment of anger, he suddenly smiled and said:
"You'd better be polite to me, this is a world that someone else has created for me. Get out of my body right now, or I'm not welcome...... Hey, what's going on, where are you going?! ”
Shiraishi carried it out of bed, pulled on his slippers, and went straight to the washing machine in the corner of the room.
He lifted the lid of the washing machine and gave a friendly smile to the stuffed bear.
"......", the pink teddy bear suddenly turned pale as if it had faded, "You, you will be punished like this...... I ......"
As soon as Shiraishi let go, the teddy bear gurgled and fell into the washing machine. Then Shiraishi picked up the laundry detergent next to him, squeezed a few strands into it, re-buckled the lid, and unscrewed the switch.
In the sound of water pouring and some kind of inaudible cursing in the background, Shiraishi clapped his hands in a good mood.
He's glad he's glad now.
If he fails in Phase 1, then Phase 2 may still be able to proceed, but at that time, it may be himself who becomes a teddy bear without a knife.
With that in mind, Shiraishi left the washing machine and walked around, browsing the bachelor apartment.
This virtual world is also very realistic, and even the tiny cracks on the walls are restored.
In addition, when you look out the window, you can see the bustling streets with people coming and going, and you can see the edge of the city when you look at it from afar, and the setting is much larger than the previous world of Fujie Akiyoshi, which makes Shiraishi even more certain that this is a masterpiece of Tatsumi.
Fujie Akiyoshi's room is quite neat, and it doesn't quite match the greasy fat house in Shiraishi's heart.
He wandered to the table and found a pile of study books neatly placed on the shelf, and in the stand next to it, there were still stacks of materials and past exam papers.
It's not as useless as Shiraishi thinks.
After checking the room, the washing machine has been completed, and Shiraishi has set up a fast mode.
When he had finished drying, he walked over and opened the lid, and saw that the stuffed bear had been shaken out of shape, and was lying there with its head down.
Shiraishi raised an eyebrow, thinking that he wouldn't just die. As a result, when he reached out and touched it, the bear immediately shuddered.
Bai Shi suddenly knew in his heart, he picked up this thing and asked politely, "Can we talk now?" ”
……
"After I died, I heard a voice in the dark, and it said, that it would allow me to relive my life and rewrite my regrets. He also said that when I had my wish, he would send me to reincarnate ......"
The stuffed bear was draped in a piece of toilet paper, and sat tremblingly in front of the hair dryer, occasionally secretly looking up to observe Shiraishi's reaction, and as soon as he looked at it, he immediately looked away in fright.
Shiraishi ignored him, and he was still thinking about how to prevent Fujie Akiyoshi from being assimilated.
According to this bear, the purpose of Linghai is to let him live happily and nourishly in this world for the rest of his life.
And everyone has an inferior nature, and once Fujie Akiyoshi tastes the sweetness here through improper means, his heart will undoubtedly become more and more depraved until it reaches the standard of being easily assimilated by the sea of Linghai......
In other words, when he spent this life in place of Fujie Akiyoshi, he definitely couldn't follow the meaning of this bear.
But at the same time, in order to eliminate his obsession, he also wanted to make Fujie Akiyoshi feel that this time his life was meaningful......
Shiraishi probably had an idea and looked back at the stuffed bear.
This geist, who was fierce before, is now very well-behaved and can answer all questions.
"As for my life experience......", it thought for a moment, showing a disappointed and weak expression:
"There's nothing to say, it's just an ordinary school, going to school, going to school, going to school, not getting into the ideal school, giving up on himself and entering the corner red commercial work, and then being fired because of work mistakes......
"If you want to say that the only bright spot is probably when I was in high school, I fell in love with Yoko, who became popular in the future, but then I ......"
Jingle Bell –
The old-fashioned phone rang, and Shiraishi and the stuffed bear looked at each other for a moment, while turning their heads to look at the phone on the table.
"It's a very moist life, and I actually installed a phone." , Shiraishi muttered and picked it up, "Hey, hello?" ”
"Mingyi, it's me." , a low female voice came from the opposite side, the tone was gentle and sweet, but the tone sounded timid.
She asked cautiously, "You haven't arrived yet, is something wrong?" ”
Shiraishi hadn't heard the sound.
But combined with the case in the real world, combined with the stuffed bear's words just now, a person's name quickly appeared in his mind.
- Yoko Okino.
