Chapter 49: An Illusory Reality
"Char... Do you like me? ”
Ava stood up suddenly, her plump body pressed against Char.
Her delicate face was extremely close to Char, only a few centimeters.
An alluring fragrance emanated from her mouth and nose, which made Char's heart flutter.
From Char's point of view, you can see the breathtaking ravines and dazzling snow whiteness of her chest.
Ava's pitiful expression, as well as her pale blue eyes glittering with tears, made Char's mouth dry.
Char finally fell completely, and suddenly stretched out his arm and hugged Ava's soft body into his arms.
There was silence in the office.
The rest of the employees looked apathetic and buried themselves in their work.
No one noticed that in the small drinking room, Char and Ava hugged each other tightly and snuggled up to each other.
The first time I tasted the taste of love, the sweet taste made Char intoxicated.
The oppressive environment of the office and the thrilling sensation that could be exposed at any time made Char feel extremely excited.
He stared at Ava's beautiful face, red and soft lips, unable to suppress his desire any longer, wanting to kiss and suck on the sweet dew.
Ava raised her little face, closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, like the most beautiful work of art in the world.
At this time...
The lights in the office flickered on and off, flickering a few times before suddenly going out.
The office that was originally brightly lit suddenly darkened.
After a few seconds, however, the power was restored and the lights were falling again.
"It's just an ordinary power outage, and Oneiroi Mansion should have a backup generator." Char didn't panic and said with a smile to Ava.
The vignette is like a flavoring, and although it interrupts Char's behavior, it makes the love in his heart even sweeter.
And at this time...
Ava slowly opened her eyes, and her originally agile blue eyes turned to dead ash!
Her eyes had no brilliance, lifeless like glass balls.
The expression on her face was also extremely stiff, like a puppet, completely lifeless.
"Ava... What happened to you? Seeing Ava's mutation, Char was startled.
"Char... Do you like me.."
"Char... Do you like me..."
"Char... Do you like me...."
“...”
Ava repeats this sentence like a repeater.
Her voice is electrosynthetic, mechanically cold, even harsh!
"Ava... You..."
A chill poured out of Char's bone marrow, and his face turned pale and completely frightened.
"Ava... You must be sick, wait a minute, I'll call the doctor. ”
Char rushed out of the drinking room, came to the hallway of the office, and said in a panic, "Who of you knows the doctor's contact information... Ava she..."
There was no response from the employees in the cubicle, they continued to tap on the keyboard, talk to customers on the phone, write plans, make reports...
No one took care of Char, and no one even reacted as humans should.
They completely treated Char as air.
This extreme indifference made Char feel terrified, and he yelled, "What's wrong with all of you! Are you guys having a problem? Ava, she's sick..."
Char's yelling seemed to have worked.
At the same moment, all the employees turned their heads suddenly, staring at Char with their eyes straight and blank!
Their expressions are exactly the same as Ava's!
Char took a step back in fright, her knees weakened, and she barely fell off her back against a desk.
"Robots... You're all robots! ”
Char finally understood.
For three days, the employees who worked in the same office as Char, except for him, were not humans, but robots!
Even Ava is a robot!
Char even fell in love with Ava, with a cold machine, a program that had already been designed!
"Scam, everything is a scam! I live in falsehood! Even Ava... It's all fake! ”
Char covered her chest with her right hand.
"This is my first relationship! It's the first time I've fallen in love with a woman! It turned out to be fake, all fake! Tears rolled down Char's cheeks, and he felt his heart become shattered and he could barely breathe.
Soon, Char's fear and grief turned into anger, and he rushed to the door of Dewey's office with a bruise on his forehead, kicking the door open!
Char wants to find Dewey's theory!
It was all Dewey's arrangement!
It is likely that Dewey saw Char playing with him like a doll and clapping through the monitor, and even fell in love with a robot, eating popcorn and applauding.
What a bad taste!
In his office, Dewey lies in a silver-white sleep machine with electrodes attached to his temples.
Hearing the sound of Char intruding, Dewey sat up from the sleep machine, took off the electrodes slowly, and said coldly: "Char, your behavior is very impolite!" ”
"Politeness? You made me work with a bunch of robots, and you sent a female robot to play with my feelings! You call this politeness! Char's face flushed, and her chest rose and fell violently.
"It's a test! A test for every Dream Builder! Dewey sat at the table, put his hands under his chin, stared at Char, and said coldly: "Just like the previous dream test, these are all part of the test!" Calm down and let's talk! ”
"Testing?" Char looked suspicious, he didn't believe Dewey's words, but he still pulled a chair and sat down.
"You must remember the three laws of dreams. Dream builders must distinguish between reality and illusion, which is an important law. But... In some special cases, reality may not be true, and dreams may not be fake. Dewey said.
"Illusory reality, real dreams?" Char suddenly remembered Dewey's words.
"That's right, I told you about it! Dream test, you did it well. But the reality test of the second half ... Your grades are terrible! In fact, if it weren't for a sudden accident, the building's power would have been cut off. The main computer that controls the robot restarts, and it is only when you discover the flaw. Otherwise, you're still in the dark and even fall in love with Ava! ”
The corners of Dewey's mouth rose slightly, and he said with a smile, "You should be glad that your luck is good!" If you kiss Ava, you'll be eliminated instantly! Of course, you are still an ordinary employee of the Oneiroi Group, and the Oneiroi Group is willing to pay you a monthly salary. But you'll never be a dream builder. ”
"And now?"
Char realized that she had almost missed out on the Dream Builder.
"Strength determines the lower limit of achievement, and luck determines the upper limit of achievement! Obviously, you're in luck! Congratulations, you've passed the reality test. That's the end of all the tests! You are qualified to be a dream builder, and I am your teacher! ”
Dewey applauded lightly, the expression on his face still cold.
