CHAPTER XXIX
"And what about the game you're talking about?" Cheng Jiyun asked, "How long has this game project been in development?" β
"Half a year. From the first time the game went into experimentation, I went. Chen Xizhou replied, and then secretly poured some wine from Cheng Jiyun's cup into his cup.
Cheng Jiyun saw it, but there was no squeak, let him do whatever he wanted.
"You volunteered?"
"Of course." Chen Xizhou said, "People like me who live at the bottom can't get a living guarantee here, so I went to participate in the experiment." The experiment doesn't constrain the crowd, and they actually want people like us to participate because they think we're real, haha. β
Cheng Jiyun didn't make a sound, maybe.
"I've been in their trials for a long time, and as long as I'm good enough, they'll give me priority when they call in new evaluators in the future." Chen Xizhou smiled.
"Then aren't you worried that you've played so many games that you've messed up?"
"No, it won't." Chen Xizhou replied, "I still have this psychological quality, not to mention, to be an evaluator, rationality and emotion must coexist, I believe in myself." β
Cheng Jiyun took a sip of wine and recalled Sunny in his mind. That little girl who is a little crazy, is it to cooperate with the game, so she set such a character for herself? Was she trying to seduce herself into doing something?
However, Cheng Jiyun didn't understand that he didn't do much in that damn apocalyptic game, and he actually passed the evaluation and let himself come to this city.
Sunny rating, why give yourself such a rating? According to Cheng Jiyun's attitude towards her, it is not very friendly.
However, now the two seem to be in different places, the classes have been divided, and it is difficult to say whether they can meet again in the future.
"When you enter the virtual world of the game, can you do whatever you want?" Cheng Jiyun asked, "You said that there will be a fully virtual character setting in the future, and anything can be changed." β
"Don't worry about that." Chen Xizhou continued, "No matter how the identity in the game changes, it is impossible to change the account ID associated with it, this is the most basic information, and it cannot be changed. β
βIDοΌβ
"That's right!" Chen Xizhou replied, "Before you come out, there should be a staff member who told you that after you get an official job, you can become an official resident here and get an identity ID." β
"What's the use?"
"All your information, your own account, your credit account, is in it."
"Isn't that unaffordable?"
"Hahaha!" Chen Xizhou laughed, "How can you lose it!" That's your face! ID is your face! Your eyes! Your fingerprints! Even if you're disfigured, they're recognizable, and a DNA contains all of your information. β
Cheng Jiyun felt himself break out in a cold sweat: "Then all my information doesn't mean that I have contributed to them?" β
"That's right!" Chen Xizhou shrugged, "Your information and your people belong to the government, and it is convenient to control, so you must submit all the information and reveal your bottom completely!" β
Cheng Jiyun looked at him stupidly, a little scary when he thought about it.
"It doesn't matter!" Chen Xizhou was very generous, "So what? It's good to do what you have to do, why do you want to do so much? They are also maintaining the security and life security of the city, so it's good to open a little! β
Want to open a point?
Well, maybe it's light as the kid says.
For a person with a criminal record, there will be inexplicable things to think of, and I don't know what I will have to face in the future, and what else I have to face, anyway, I feel that everything is not simple to live here.
"If you really become an evaluator, will your identity be different?" Cheng Jiyun asked.
"Maybe there will be a little change, but it's just because I have a job, and it doesn't mean everything." Chen Xizhou sat against the bar, "We are all intern residents now, and we are not qualified to score yet. β
"Rating?"
"That's right, everybody can rate each other to constrain everybody's behavior." Chen Xizhou's expression became serious, "People with high ratings can get better jobs and better lives; People with low ratings may face re-evaluation and expulsion to the outside world. β
Cheng Jiyun took a deep breath: "I feel that life is not easy." β
"That's right." Chen Xizhou smiled far-fetchedly, "So, I said, if you want to live in a city with such good conditions, you must pay something, whether it is money or discipline." β
After speaking, he and Cheng Jiyun touched their cups: "I hope we can all live here." β
"Here?" Cheng Jiyun smiled and didn't speak, "Hearing you say this, I suddenly feel that I am particularly unsuitable here." β
"Don't say that." Chen Xizhou comforted him instead, "According to your original identity, you can come here, which means that your past has been reshuffled, and now it depends on how you seize the opportunity." β
"Re-grasp?" Cheng Jiyun shifted his gaze to these people present and asked, "Do these people already have identities?" β
Chen Xizhou was stunned for a moment, and turned into laughter: "Your eyes are very sharp!" β
Cheng Jiyun looked at him: "What?" β
"A lot of these are marginal people."
"Marginal?" Cheng Jiyun heard a new word.
"Well, they have IDs, but they don't use them, they avoid socializing with others, they don't score." Chen Xizhou explained.
"Then they don't work?"
"Of course it doesn't work." Chen Xizhou pointed to a man holding a wine glass and approaching someone else's sleeve and said, "When they work, their behavior is restricted, so they work by themselves." β
"What can I do?"
"Betrayal information." Chen Xizhou turned around, faced the bar, kept rummaging through his pocket, and finally found another banknote, "Another drink." β
"What information is being sold?"
Seeing that Cheng Jiyun was particularly interested, Chen Xizhou became more and more proud: "Look, I said, you won't regret coming with me, you're very interested here, right?" β
Cheng Jiyun pursed his lips, and just picked up the wine glass, only to find that the glass was empty. Fortunately, even if the bartender poured a glass of wine, Chen Xizhou shared half of it.
"They can help find someone." Chen Xizhou said, "Some people's clues are difficult to find on the Internet, and they can use their own means to find them." β
"Looking for someone?" Cheng Jiyun's eyes lit up, "Can anyone find it?" β
"I don't know." Chen Xizhou took a sip of wine, "I've also heard about it, and I haven't looked for anyone, so it's impossible to know if they can find anyone." β
Cheng Jiyun turned around and looked at the people here, those who were hanging on their heads, they were still a little disdainful just now, but now they have changed their gaze.
"Still, it should be possible." Chen Xizhou also followed him and turned around, "Otherwise, how would they live." β
Cheng Jiyun also took a sip of wine, watching them laugh in the bright lights, as if he didn't mind his identity as a marginal person at all, and he was like a fish in water here.
"I want to try." I don't know if it's because the strength of the wine is coming up or what, Cheng Jiyun feels that he has a lot of energy and wants to test it.
He put down his glass and walked over to a man who was holding a glass and teasing others.
The man was talking happily, and when he saw Cheng Jiyun coming to him violently, he was a little strange: "Who are you?" β
"Can I talk to you privately?" Cheng Jiyun behaved sincerely.
The man shook the wine glass in his hand, said hello to others, and followed Cheng Jiyun to the side: "What?" β
"Can you help find someone?" Cheng Jiyun asked.
"What? Get? The man frowned, "Are you sure?" β
"Yes." Cheng Jiyun replied affirmatively.
The man looked at Cheng Jiyun carefully several times, and said in a mocking tone, "How do you find it?" Do you have any money? β
Cheng Jiyun was stunned, money? It's like I really don't.
"I don't have any money right now, but I can give it to you when I earn it."
"No, no, no." The man interrupted him, "It's all about eating, we don't accept credit, I'm sorry." After speaking, the man was about to leave, Cheng Jiyun was in a hurry, grabbed his arm, and the strength was not accurate, and he actually spilled the wine in his hand.
Now, the man was not happy: "What do you mean? β
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," Cheng Jiyun panicked.
"I'm sorry!" At this time, Chen Xizhou stepped forward and relieved him, "This big brother, my friend is new, I don't understand, I'm offended." As he spoke, he poured the wine in his hand into his cup, "You drink, you drink." β
No matter who drank the wine, as long as it was wine, the man didn't mind anything, shook off Cheng Jiyun's hand, and returned to the original place.
"Wait......" Cheng Jiyun wanted to say something, but was stopped by Chen Xizhou.
"Don't ask." Chen Xizhou put down the empty cup and wanted to take Cheng Jiyun away, "It's not easy to talk about anything without money." β
In this way, Cheng Jiyun was dragged out of the bar by him.
Along the way, Cheng Jiyun felt very annoyed, not because of his own impulsiveness, but because he was penniless. Is it impossible to have no money at any time?
"Damn!" Cheng Jiyun's strength seemed to have really come up, "If you want to find someone, can't I find it myself?" β
"How do you find it?"
"Police? May I? Missing person notice? Cheng Jiyun looked at Chen Xizhou.
"Maybe it works, but what is your identity, and who are you going to?" Chen Xizhou is much more sober than him.
"What?" Cheng Jiyun rubbed his somewhat swollen head, "Do you still want to see people?" β
"That's right, everyone's information is private, you can't find whoever you want, and you can't find anyone without blood and kinship." Chen Xizhou looked at him, "Therefore, these people can take advantage of loopholes and earn some black money." β
Cheng Jiyun shook his head, he was really sad, sad that he was incompetent.
"However, I don't have any money."
"Alright, alright." Chen Xizhou patted him on the shoulder, "We don't have any, if we do a good job, we will have money." β
"But......" Cheng Jiyun suddenly had the urge to cry, this damn wine! The stamina is so strong!
"Don't think about it." Chen Xizhou took him and walked back, "Either work to make money, or find a rich person to borrow money, do you know anyone?" Didn't you? We're all poor and white, don't dream. β
Cheng Jiyun didn't want to speak, didn't want to say anything, Shi Wei's face was churning in her mind, getting farther and farther away, could she really only be a stranger with her?
β¦β¦
After a night without a dream, my whole head hurt terribly after being woken up by an alarm clock in the early morning.
How? I haven't drunk in so many years, and the amount of alcohol is so bad? Not really, right?
Cheng Jiyun dragged his tired body and washed his face with cold water, only to see his haggard face in the mirror. What did you do last night? In the memory, why does it look like a stranger?
Oh...... The man had some messy hair that obscured the contours of his face. A black suit hung loosely over his shoulders, along with the crinkled shirt.
I thought to myself, this person is similar to himself, but at least he can eat on his own.
Forget it, forget it, don't think about it, it's important to go to work.
Cheng Jiyun came to Jasmine's restaurant in the car, and Anna was already waiting for him.
"Have you had breakfast?" Anna saw that his face was not very good, so she asked.
"No, no." Cheng Jiyun replied stupidly.
"Why don't you eat it?" Anna said with concern, "There's some leftover bread in the kitchen that you can go eat and eat." β
"No, I'm not hungry." Cheng Jiyun replied with a smile, indeed, he didn't feel hungry at all, but a little bloated.
"Okay, then you can quickly change your clothes and attend the morning meeting."
Cheng Jiyun entered the locker room, changed into work clothes, and took out the flyer of the time machine in the cabinet, I don't know how long ago someone put it in it, so he casually threw it into the trash.
The working hours of the restaurant are busy and leisure, and it is inevitable that they will be bored when there is no one, but at lunchtime, when there are guests coming, Cheng Jiyun will do his job well.
When the guests slowly dispersed, he took a break and began to think crankily in his head.
βChenγβ Anna called out to him, this is what they call him in the store, there is no English name, just call him casually.
"Manager, what's wrong?" On the contrary, Cheng Jiyun is not used to calling Anna by her English name.
Anna handed him a schedule: "Follow this table for your working hours, pay attention to yourself." β
"Oh, okay." Cheng Jiyun took the schedule and glanced at it, he had one day off on Monday. Forget it, the day after tomorrow is Monday, it's really fast.
He put away the forms and thought about what he could do during the day's break. There are no familiar people to visit, and no familiar places to go......
Wait, he suddenly thought of Chen Xizhou telling him in his mind: Rich people can borrow money......
Rich people, no, but there is a familiar person, who has a job, and there should be money to lend him...... Although he doesn't want to see him, he can't care so much about it at this time.
Sunny, he should be in Choose, how he got there, he remembers, I hope Sunny remembers him.
