"But at that time, I would never believe Huang Yilun's words." Ji Lan continued to recount her experience, "Huang Yilun's words scared me. That reminded me of Gu Li's horrific corpse...... So I screamed, no matter what Huang Yilun explained to me, I kicked him out of my house. ”

The next day, Huang Yilun made a phone call to Ji Lan, and in an extremely pleading tone, asked Ji Lan to meet him again, saying that he had some important things to tell her about that game, Ji Lan hesitated again and again, but agreed to meet.

Seeing Huang Yilun again, this hacker master has messy hair and bloodshot eyes, but his spirit is in a state of extreme excitement.

Huang Yilun could barely suppress his inner excited tone, and spread out a stack of materials in front of Ji Lan.

It was Huang Yilun's self-printed information on A4 paper, and the first information was a copy of a death certificate.

The deceased's name is Li Zhongqian, male, a resident of Huanyang Street, Yuheng District, Jinguan City, an employee of a technology company before his death, the cause of death was sudden death from heart failure, the age of death was 47 years old, and the time of death was September 24, 20XX.

Ji Lan immediately reacted - isn't this Li Zhongqian the name of an NPC in the game?

Huang Yilun spread out the rest of the information in front of Ji Lan......

One by one, all copies of obituaries or death certificates, and the names of those who died...... All have the same name as the NPC in that game!

If Ji Lan was still in a state of extreme doubt when he saw the copy of Li Zhongqian's death certificate at the beginning, then at this time, Ji Lan already somewhat understood what Huang Yilun wanted to express - but this was too unbelievable, and it was impossible for Ji Lan to accept it for a while!

Under Ji Lan's stunned gaze, Huang Yilun took out a small notepad from his arms, opened it, and pointed out the text record on it to Ji Lan with a slightly trembling finger: "This is a death statistics book I made myself, you see, this Li Zhongqian has been dead in reality for more than 10 years, and the earliest of these dead people I counted has been dead for more than 20 years, and the most recent record is last year!" Don't you understand, Corolla (Corolla is Ji Lan's screen name)? The 'NPCs' in that game are all dead people, and these people are all living in their pre-death state! ”

Huang Yilun kept his voice down at first, but the more he spoke, the more excited he became, and in the end, it almost became a shout.

In Ji Lan's ears, Huang Yilun's words were tantamount to a thunderclap on the ground! And she also suddenly remembered that Li Zhongqian, who has been dead for more than 20 years in reality, was an employee of a technology company before his death, and the Li Zhongqian in the game likes to drink Ji Lan's chat the most, and it is also the latest technology news, and after Ji Lan checked the death certificate again, he found that this is not an exception, those NPCs with the same name as the deceased in reality actually retain some "life" professional habits.

No, it's not the scariest thing.

That nightmare resurfaced in front of Ji Lan's eyes - in the bathtub lay the corpse of Gu Li, surrounded by rats and maggots, and the corpse's miserable white eyes stared at Ji Lan......

Gu Li, will she also be "resurrected" in that game?

This thought of his own made Ji Lan frightened and frightened, and his body shuddered-thinking of the experience in that mysterious chat room, the other party seemed to have said something like "you can save Gu Li", right? How to "save"? Does it really mean that Gu Li can be "resurrected" in that game, just like Li Zhongqian?

Thinking of this, cold sweat suddenly slid down Ji Lan's forehead, and her eyes widened with fright......

At that time, Ji Lan felt that her spirit was about to collapse, she stood up "Teng", she didn't even have time to say "sorry", she was about to escape from the open-air café where she had an appointment with Huang Yilun, the chair she was sitting on turned over behind her, and she hit someone else's seat again and again, in a scream and scolding, Ji Lan fled to an alley across the street, and then, she found that Huang Yilun had caught up with her.

"Corolla, you don't have to be afraid, on the contrary, don't you feel excited? What a great invention it would be if that game really had that kind of magical features! Huang Yilun pressed Ji Lan's shoulders, "One person can't play another person completely realistically, and that can't be something that artificial intelligence can do - information can be collected, but emotions can't be simulated!" Corolla, human emotions can't be simulated! ”

"Let go of me!"

Ji Lan almost slapped Huang Yilun in the face, because this guy didn't know what was terrible that happened in that dark web chat room, of course he couldn't understand Ji Lan's fear at this moment! Huang Yilun's next sentence made Ji Lan stop the hand that had been raised.

"I found Li Zhongqian's son, and he promised me to meet 'Li Zhongqian' in the game!" Huang Yilun's eyes were full of frenzy, "We're going to validate this game, Corolla, you have to agree to this request - what a great discovery it will be if we succeed?!" ”

The next day, Li Zhongqian's son, Li San, a 35-year-old obese man, almost smashed Ji Lan's home, and Huang Yilun, who was thin, was not the opponent of this fat man at all, and in the end, Ji Lan could only call the police.

"My father is not dead, where are you hiding him?!"

When he was taken away by the police, Li San yelled.

Li San didn't believe it was a game at all.

After only a few minutes of conversation with Li Zhongqian in the game, Li San entered an extremely chaotic mental state, and after chatting with the "father" in the game for half an hour, Li San went crazy.

"It's true, it's true......" Huang Yilun trembled with excitement, and after knowing that the game could not be replicated, he looked at the computer host that caused Li San to go crazy, and there was already a bit of greed in his eyes.

Li San's behavior undoubtedly proved an extremely terrible fact, and because he knew more, Ji Lan's heart was more shocked than Huang Yilun, and at the same time, Ji Lan also noticed Huang Yilun's strange look, and immediately drove Huang Yilun out.

"The next day, I was called by the police to make a record, because Li San died." Ji Lan said, "Li San made a big fuss at my house, the police forcibly took him away, and after a fine and ideological education, they released him that night, but as soon as he left the police station, he climbed to the top floor of a nearby commercial building and committed suicide by jumping off the building." ”

"I have the impression of this case, there was a discussion in the police bureau for a while at that time, saying that it might be because of emotional matters that I couldn't think about, and the police who handled it thought you were Li San's girlfriend, so it turned out that this was the case." Cheng Cheng added a paragraph.

"The point is not Li San's death, but it was because of his suicide that the police interrogated me for a long time, and I didn't return home until after nine o'clock in the evening. An hour later, I noticed that my computer wouldn't turn on, and when I looked at it, the hard drive in the main chassis was gone. ”
