Chapter 35

Sure enough, [Game] has higher authority than [Real World], and can tamper with [Facts] in the real world.

This is a tampered world, and they, the selected [players], discovered this [truth], but were [muted], unable to reveal the slightest bit of this truth.

I just don’t know how far this [Forbidden Speech] can go. Things that exist objectively and can be recorded are easily tampered with and erased, such as deleting words written on paper and Weibo Moments sent out. Humans in the real world can also do [Erasure] to a certain degree.

From the drawer, Bai Liu found his mobile phone whose screen was smashed and was not willing to replace it. He found a friend's number inside, dialed it, and before the other party could react, he quickly told everything that happened to him. After finishing, Bai Liu put his hands on the table and knocked, and counted down carelessly in a low voice with the beating: "7, 6, 5..."

"What are you counting down! Tell me about what happened to you! Is it true? You didn't make it up, it's too exciting—"

Bai Liu lowered her eyes: "——3—2—1."

The friend's voice stopped abruptly, and then he became confused: "Hey, Bai Liu, why are you calling me? Eh?! When did I answer your call! I don't have any memory!"

"It's nothing." Bai Liu said perfunctorily, "I just missed you, so I'll give you a call."

Seven seconds is the time between when Bai Liu just posted Weibo and the last word of his Weibo completely disappeared. He specially memorized it. He didn’t expect that [game] even something [non-objective existence] like human memory can easily Tampering, and it only takes seven seconds to completely tamper with it, without spending an extra second.

It seems that the difficulty of tampering with people's memory is not much more difficult for [games] than tampering with a piece of data.

"Whoa, whoa, Bai Liu, you only think about money, don't disgust me." The friend obviously knew Bai Liu very well, and asked while joking, "Seriously, why did you think of calling me?" ? Is there something wrong?"

"I'm thinking about a question, Lu Yizhan, do you think people's memory is only seven seconds?" Bai Liu tapped his fingers on the table casually, recorded his experience in the game on paper with a pen, and then looked at the words Disappeared one by one.

Lu Yizhan's voice paused, as if a little confused: "Why are you suddenly thinking about this philosophical question? And you are wrong about this question, right? Didn't the original words mean that the memory of a fish is only seven seconds?"

"Did I remember wrongly?" Bai Liu lazily stretched his waist, "Maybe, after all, there are only seven seconds of memory, and it's normal to remember things wrongly. Hey, do you think it's possible? The original sentence of this sentence is [The memory of human beings is only seven seconds], and then something tampered with [the memory of fish is only seven seconds], to fool us human beings who only have seven seconds of memory?"

Lu Yizhan is used to Bai Liu saying some strange things after losing his job. He couldn't laugh or cry: "What are you thinking about after you lose your job? I'm getting paid today. I'll treat you to dinner. Don't think about these people, fish, seven seconds of memory, if people You only have seven seconds of memory, what do you do when you make those of us who have to memorize French clauses memorize every day?"

"Of course you invite me to dinner." Bai Liu casually threw the coin on his neck into the neckline, and was chilled by the cold touch different from the coin. It was the scale of the Siren King that was pressed on his heart. Before hanging up the phone, he asked in a strange way, "If the memory of a human is only seven seconds, and the memory of a fish is only seven seconds, Lu Yizhan, tell me—how many seconds is a mermaid's memory?"

"Why are you still struggling with this problem? You even brought up the mermaid." Lu Yizhan said with a helpless smile, "According to your assumption, the memory of both humans and fish is only seven seconds, and the memory of mermaids must be even shorter. Second?"

"Maybe."

Although he said goodbye to the mermaid named Tavel, the other party probably forgot about him the moment Bai Liu left.

Bai Liu seldom feels lost because of being forgotten and neglected. He does not pursue human approval. As long as he has money to entertain himself, he can live a good life. But the Siren King is really an unprecedented beautiful data. The guy also felt a little bit regretful that the few seconds he had been erased from the other party's memory.

But it's just a little bit, only a little bit the size of a fish scale.

Lu Yizhan and Bai Liu were able to play together mainly because they were both stingy. They became unshakable revolutionary friends by sharing various discount and lottery information. Of course, some people thought that the two people played together, but Because neither of them has parents, they are a pair of orphans who can understand each other's misery.

As soon as Bai Liu sat down at the barbecue booth, Lu Yizhan said with wrinkled eyebrows: "Bai Liu, I'm getting married."

"Congratulations." Bai Liu was not surprised. Lu Yizhan and his girlfriend have been married for several years, and it's normal to get married. "Then I'll treat you to dinner today, and I'll pay you two thousand later."

Lu Yizhan almost sprayed Bai Liu's face with a sip of cold beer, and his eyes widened in astonishment: "Are you crazy?! Is there something else to pay for a treat?! Two thousand! Don't you say you don't have money in your life? Will people pay for marriage, do this kind of meat buns and dogs, and there will be no return?!"

Yes, this is what Bai Liu said when a colleague got married.

This colleague usually doesn't get along well with blunt people like Bai Liu, so he always gossips about Bai Liu behind his back, but when he got married, he kept licking his face and leaning forward, wanting Bai Liu to pay for it, and talking about other things Colleagues gave one thousand and two, and Bai Liu, you can also make up for a month of moon red, one thousand and two will do.

At this time, Bai Liu said calmly [I have no marriage arrangements, so I will not give money to strangers for marriage, and make this kind of investment that will never return] This kind of earth-shattering speech.

That colleague's face turned black, and he was directly called a dog by Bai Liu. What Bai Liu meant was that he and his wife were a pair of [dogs and men and women], right? The colleague was so angry that he crazily sweared about Bai Liu behind his back, saying that Bai Liu would die.

But Bai Liu didn't fluctuate after hearing it. He really didn't plan to raise children, so to Bai Liu, this kind of swearing was just an objective description of his future life, and there was no need for him to get angry.

"It's not absolutely impossible, I just don't give money to strangers." Bai Liu took a sip of the beer, "But you are not a stranger, we have contacts, so it is not invalid if I give you money invest."

After hearing this, Lu Yizhan was a little heartwarming and wanted to laugh: "Why, are you still planning to earn back the investment money from me? Seriously, Bai Liu, I really don't need you to pay the money, I'm just married and happy, I want to Please come over for dinner, I don’t have many friends, you count as one, I’m very happy that you come, and you are not in a good condition now, right? Really forget it.”

"We'll talk about this when you have money." Lu Yizhan waved his hand as he spoke, making a gesture of virtual refusal.

If it is said that Bailiu's meticulous planning is due to nature, then Lu Yizhan's digging and searching is forced by life.

Lu Yizhan is a poor policeman, that is, life has been easier recently, but it is much better than the unemployed Bai Liu, and he really doesn't want Bai Liu to pay for it.

Bai Liu ate a bunch of roasted kidneys, wiped her mouth, and said suddenly: "I made 100,000 in the past week."

"Puff——!!!" Lu Yizhan was really angry, "What did you do?!"

He knew that Bai Liu would not lie to him, saying that if he earned 100,000, he would be 100,000, so Lu Yizhan was really shocked: "You won't really do something illegal and criminal, right?! I will kill you with my own hands !"

Lu Yizhan has always known that Bai Liu's brain is very good, but it is used in some very strange ways, such as designing horror games and designing some plots of crimes without traces, so when he suddenly heard that Bai Liu became rich, Lu Yizhan was the first The reaction was not lemons, but he took out his mobile phone with hair on his back, and was vigilantly preparing to call the police to notify his colleagues.

Lu Yizhan knew that Bai Liu had a very low moral bottom line, and with the addition of the psychological problem of [money hoarding disorder], it was hard to say what Bai Liu could do after he had no source of income.

"I changed a job, so you don't have to be so nervous. I asked, and it's legal." Bai Liu crunched and ate while peeling peanuts, "This job pays a lot, but it's more dangerous, but it's quite suitable for me. of."

"What job can earn so much?" Lu Yizhan was dubious, "One hundred thousand a week?"

"Emmm, I probably sold my soul to a large underground organization. I can't disclose the existence of this organization." Bai Liu rubbed his chin and thought, trying to say that he was in the [game] in a way that would not be banned. experience in.

"Then I will perform on stage, or call it a live broadcast, and do things like selling my body and soul on the stage. There will be some weird things to bully me, and then I will show it to the audience. I tipped a lot of money, and then I made a hundred thousand."

"..." Confusion, shock, fear, complex and other expressions appeared on Lu Yizhan's face, and finally stopped at pity, Lu Yizhan looked at Bai Liu sadly, "Are you doing ducks in nightclubs, Bai Liu?"

Bai Liu: "..."

After Bai Liu explained, Lu Yizhan reluctantly believed that Bai Liu was not doing that, but he was determined not to accept money from Bai Liu, he thought it was Bai Liu's selling money! He can't have it!

Bai Liu: "..."

If Lu Yizhan insists on understanding it this way, it seems that it is not impossible.

After a brief meeting, Bai Liu went home to rest for two days, paid half a year's rent to his landlord, cleaned his house briefly, and was ready to enter the [game].

Although [the game] requires entry once every seven days, Bai Liu felt that he needed to go in in advance to learn about other things.

But you can have a good meal before you leave, even if you die in the game, it's equivalent to having a good meal, Bai Liu thought, and went downstairs to eat a bowl of noodles with fried eggs.

The owner of the small noodle shop downstairs is very skilled. In the small noodle shop, there is a TV set up on a shelf, which is full of oil stains. Right above Bai Liu, who is eating noodles, is broadcasting social news:

The voice of the hostess in the news was clear and clear: "The lawyer of the major suspect Li Gou, who was suspected of raping and killing a senior high school student, filed a lawsuit again, claiming that there is insufficient evidence for Li Gou to uphold the original sentence of death, and is currently preparing for a second trial. middle--"

On the TV, a photo of the suspect with a swollen face and a photo of a smiling girl in school uniform with mosaic eyes were placed side by side, which was clearly out of place.

The male owner of the noodle shop also saw the news, wiped his hands with his apron, shook his head and sighed: "Cause, a good girl will be ruined, if I were the parents of this female student, I would probably go crazy now, originally They are about to be sentenced, and now they suddenly say that the evidence is insufficient, that the evidence has suddenly disappeared, and now there is a lot of noise on the Internet."

The hostess on TV was still broadcasting in a steady tone: "At present, the family members of the victim have serious emotional ups and downs. They are gathering crowds to make trouble at the gate of the court. Relevant personnel have intervened in the investigation and coordination."

In the video behind it, a hysterical middle-aged woman with disheveled hair was stopped by a group of people. She was so haggard that she almost lost her human shape, and the circles around her eyes were white and wrinkled with tears. When a breath came, the tears and snot that she had finally wiped off fell instantly.

The woman was stuck under the creaking nest and stopped by a group of people, but she rushed towards the gate of the court like a madman, almost kneeling on the ground and howling, her mouth was howling like a heart-piercing female beast : "She is only eighteen years old!!! Why is the evidence missing!! Why are all the evidence and documents that recorded what that beast did to my Guoguo gone!!! Are you covering him up!!"

A middle-aged man next to him had been subdued by a security guard and his head was pinned to the ground. He writhed and screamed miserably on the ground, and his clothes were torn by his struggle.

With tears streaming down his face, the man cried, "Let me go!!! Give my daughter justice!!! Give my daughter her innocence!! Call that bastard Li Gou out!! I swore in front of Guoguo's grave that my father would kill me!" The villain avenged her!"

As soon as the video turned, Li Gou with a mosaic around his eyes appeared in the video. He pressed the corner of his mouth implicitly, but the pride of a successful crime still overflowed from the corners of his eyebrows and eyes: "If you didn't do it, you didn't do it." , the previous evidence was all fabricated by the couple to frame me."

"A good person like me." Li Gou cracked the corners of his mouth, his eyes covered by mosaics and the corners of his mouth raised all the way made his expression strangely ferocious and tyrannical, he whispered hoarsely, "—God will help me Yes, the kind of bad people who spread rumors about me at will should be burned to death."

"It's so miserable." The panel boss is a soft and chubby man who is as soft as dough. Now he wipes his tears with an apron when he reads a social news. Okay, I didn't expect... how could such a thing happen?"

"Evidence of sudden disappearance?" Bai Liu raised his eyebrows while watching the social news on the screen after eating the last mouthful of noodles.

This method of erasing a certain objective existence is subtly similar to the method of [game] [forbidden speech]...

"Where is this girl's graveyard?" Bai Liu asked the owner of the noodle shop, "Or do you have her parents' phone number?"

The owner of the noodle shop was taken aback: "Yes, yes, what do you want, Bai Liu?"

"Maybe I can help them." Bai Liu wiped her mouth, put ten yuan on the table under the noodle bowl and stood up.

The owner of the noodle shop was stunned: "Help them? How can you help?"

"Using an unconventional and legal method." Bai Liu commented calmly.

Bai Liu has already discovered that this game is completely a pyramid scheme promotion method, players and players are like dominoes one after another, knocked down by some events that seem to have no connection, but in fact have a certain internal connection, and fall into a trap. The intense desire is aroused by the traps and desperation preset by the [game], and then it is included in the [game], becoming a [player] who sells his soul to the [game] to satisfy his out-of-control inner desires.

The condition for entering the game is to have personal desires that are so intense that they don't care about life and death, such as Bai Liu's wanting money rather than life.

If Bai Liu's guess is correct, there may soon be a pair of sad and desperate parents in the [player] in this world.

That [Li Gou] should also be a player, this [Li Gou] should use props to eliminate his crimes, and Li Gou's action forced the parents who lost their beloved daughter to have nowhere to turn for help, and fell into extreme desire for revenge, thus Reach the standard of accepting players in the game.

It's like [Muke] parachuted into Bai Liu's original position because of a bad heart and wanted to experience life, forcing Bai Liu to lose control of money after being laid off, thus entering the game.

Everyone in this world is like chess pieces or building blocks under [Game], and [Game] plays with their lives casually like a god, just like playing an interesting game.

What a cunning and cruel [game].
