A Race to (Be) The Top - Chapter 76

Ji Meng’s palm slowly moved from behind his neck to the front, staying on Ling Xiaolu’s face.

Ling Xiaolu didn’t understand his behavior, so he cast his eyes down in surprise.

Ji Meng raised his other hand with difficulty again, and landed on the other side of Ling Xiaolu’s face, holding him firmly in the palm of his hand.

This posture was very ambiguous, and they were so close, Ling Xiaolu could even feel the heavy breathing of Ji Meng’s face.

He just confessed, why did he get a result close to confession?

His chin was lifted a little by Ji Meng, and his eyes were facing each other. The emotions in Ji Meng’s eyes were complicated, unclear, and even painful for no reason.

Ling Xiaolu’s heart was filled with feelings of guilt. He just concealed the fact of his identity. Was it such a big blow to Ji Meng?

The handsome face came closer, as if he was about to rub Ling Xiaolu into his eyes, observing every detail of his face fiercely.

Ling Xiaolu had no doubt that when that hot gaze fell on his lips, Ji Meng would kiss him without thinking.

The atmosphere was charming, Ling Xiaolu could hear his heart beating violently in his chest, puffing, puffing…

Skip the ambiguity, skip the shyness, skip the hypocritical, usually the story develops here, the next link can appear logically.

It’s just that he has no experience, should he be silent or close his eyes.

In case Ji Meng is not there, should he give him a signal or take the initiative…

Looking at Ji Meng affectionately, he squeezed Ling Xiaolu’s face heavily.

Ling Xiaolu: Ouch!

The other side’s face was also pinched, squeezed and rubbed. Ling Xiaolu could imagine his face being deformed by Ji Meng’s rubbing.

It looks ridiculous, but the sound in the ear is inexplicably bitter.

“Does it have to be so realistic?”

Ling Xiaolu:? ? ?

Ji Meng made such an unreasonable and unreasonable behavior to him, and Ling Xiaolu couldn’t help but want to ask if this person was sick, but Ji Meng’s voice sounded like he was about to cry again.

“I thought I made friends in the game.”

“…” Ling Xiaolu’s heart suddenly softened. How could he forget that he was the first and possibly the only friend Ji Meng had made in this game. If you are deceived by your only friend, can you not allow others to be sad?

“Although I deceived you in this matter, I really treat you as a friend sincerely…” Ling Xiaolu said cautiously.

Ji Meng shook his head vigorously, not wanting to hear anything from him.

He touched Ling Xiaolu’s forehead, closed his eyes, and twisted his hale and hearty brows into Sichuan.

Ling Xiaolu could even feel his sad emotions flowing in along the parts where the two of them were in contact with their skin, invading his mind.

Never seen Ji Meng show such an expression, Ling Xiaolu couldn’t bear it, and tentatively stretched out his hand to him: “Friend…”

Ji Meng avoided his touch: “Just leave me alone, let me be quiet.”

He stretched out his hand and fumbled behind Ling Xiaolu’s neck: “Where is the switch off? Is it a long press here?”

Ling Xiaolu:? ? ? WTF?

He forcefully broke free of Ji Meng’s hand: “Friend, have you misunderstood something?”

Ji Meng waved his hand in pain, “It’s not your fault, and you don’t know.”

Ling Xiaolu: I don’t know what it is? ?

Ji Meng let go of him, walked headlessly in the room, raised an arm, trying to beat him hard to vent his anger, but couldn’t find the target, waved hard twice, and finally hit the pet food cabinet heavily There was a loud noise on the cabinet door, which shocked Ling Xiaolu.

His voice was obscure and choked: “The pet food in the cabinet is declining every day… I thought it was a squirrel…”

Back Pot Squirrel: You are numb every day.

Ling Xiaolu worried: “…I’m sorry, I don’t know, you mind this so much…I can make it up!”

Ji Meng shook his head again, as if he didn’t mind this at all.

The more he recalled, the more loopholes Ling Xiaolu exposed, he didn’t seem to have deliberately concealed it at all, he himself ignored them all.

“Why didn’t I think of it before?”

“It’s not to blame you,” Ling Xiaolu wanted to comfort him, “After all, not everyone is like my master…”

Speaking of his master, Ji Meng had an epiphany again: “What is your mission? Does it stimulate Lizheng consumption?”

Ling Xiaolu looked dumbfounded: “Oh?”

Ji Meng quickly denied himself: “Forget it, why did I ask you this question? You obviously don’t know anything.”

Ling Xiaolu: “…”

“My friend, I told you everything about me, can you stop being dumb with me?”

Ji Meng stood upright in front of him: “Have you ever asked yourself a philosophical question?”

Ling Xiaolu:?

“Who am I? Where am I from? Where am I going?”

Ling Xiaolu shook his fingers and said, “…These are three questions!

“But do you have any questions? Ask me this kind of question at this time?”

Ling Xiaolu thought he would violently violently kill himself, and then unreasonably demanded that he enter into a bond with him… This is in line with Ji Meng’s personality, isn’t it?

Suddenly discussing philosophy is what kind of turning point?

Standing one meter away from him, Ji Meng had a complicated expression.

“I really envy you, I don’t know anything.”

…You know a lot, you mean!

Ji Meng didn’t start, for fear that he would be emotionally broken if he continued to watch him.

“Sorry, I’ll go offline first.”

Ling Xiaolu was really taken aback.

Ji Meng hesitated to speak, “…remember today Friday.”

“Friday…what’s wrong?”

“Every Friday night at 21:37 is the time when you go offline and have a video call with your parents.”

“…You remember so clearly.”

“I originally set an alarm clock…” Ji Meng covered his eyes in pain, “I should have thought that I never go offline, but go offline at a fixed time every week, how could anyone call their family members so accurately? Time…why even the reason for system maintenance is so humane.”

Ling Xiaolu: Excuseme? ?

Lu Jiu and Li Zheng were boring waiting at the door of Ji Meng’s house, and no one wanted to leave first.

“Hey, Li Zheng.” Lu Qiu called the person on the other side.

Li Zheng glanced at him who was sitting on the ground indifferently.

“It’s so boring to wait, will you come to discuss it?”

“…”

After half an hour, a passerby passed by.

Passers-by have hallucinations and passers-by leave.

Passersby turned back again.

[World] Chu Fang: Seeking identification, am I blind?

[World] Jiangdong Chicken Blood: Speak up, let us see how blind you are.

[World] Chu Fang: I saw Li Zheng and Lu Jiu PK at the door of Ji Meng’s house.

[World] Ten years: completely blind, identification completed.

[World] Little Hammer: All-this level is a bit shallow.

[World] Chu Fang: …The name of the Great Devil still seems to be golden.

[World] Ling Qifeng: It’s very rude to come up to conclude that people are completely blind! I think this situation may be that you have hysteria.

[World] Lin is right: aren’t you the patient in the bed next to me? Why did you go to Dongye?

[World] Lu Horseshoe: Why don’t you send a live broadcast and let everyone go blind together?

[World] Chu Fang: [Live Video]

Soon, everyone in the whole service went blind.

Ling Xiaolu slowly opened the door of Ji Meng’s house, and Li Zheng and Yunjiu, who had been playing inextricably a second, stopped at the same time.

“Apprentice.”

“Little brother, are you finally willing to come out to see me?”

Ling Xiaolu was confused and hesitant.

“Ji Meng… seems to be crazy.”

…

The crazy Ji Meng was with Chang Huanxi. Chang Huanxi was forcibly pulled off the line by Ji Meng. The original saying was that he wanted him to drink with him.

But since neither of them knew how to drink, Chang Huanxi pulled Ji Meng into the water and kindly ordered him a cup of bubble tea.

big cup! Go ice! Three points sweet!

“What’s the most terrible thing happened that would make you think of using wine to seduce you?”

This kind of once-in-a-lifetime situation can almost be ranked as the most incredible event for Ji Meng.

Ji Meng took a sip of milk tea without speaking.

There are not many people who can give Ji Meng such a big mood swing. Chang Huanxi just needs to guess in order: “Is it Lubi…”

“Don’t mention Lubi.”

Chang Huanxi: …This is too good to guess!

“I see! Brother Xiaolu must have moved to his master’s house with Xiaolubi!”

“…” Fortunately, the cup in his hand is glass, otherwise Ji Meng will definitely crush it. What kind of demon Chang Huanxi is, and he can actually punish every word.

“Thank you, for being said by you, I actually feel that the previous question is acceptable.”

Chang Huanxi: “…”

Does he have such talent for enlightenment?

“Brother, what the problem is, I can only find a way to help you solve it if you tell it.”

Ji Meng bounced from his teeth: “The deer is better than it, not a person.”

Chang Huanxi:?

“It’s an AI, a simulated AI, do you understand? Intelligent life!”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry,” Chang Huanxi calmed his emotions, “Of course I know what AI is. Speak slowly, what is Lubi AI?”

Ji Meng told Chang Huanxi everything he knew, including the ones that Ling Xiaolu explained himself.

“Unexpectedly, they have compiled such a rich story background for AI. Even if they are compiled into a novel, they can write more than 300,000 characters.” Ji Meng feels even more sad when he thinks about it.

——How truly he believed that he was a human being, had parents, had friends, and even had an unfortunate and unspeakable experience.

——How sad would he be if I told him everything was false now?

It took Chang Huanxi a long time to clear the whole story.

“You mean, Brother Xiaolu is an AI developed experimentally by Xinshan? But he doesn’t know that he is an AI? He thinks he is just like everyone else, an ordinary… Uh, there are some unusual players?”

Ji Meng nodded with difficulty.

“But all this is just your guess. Do you have any evidence?”

“From the first time I saw him, he was very strange. He likes to eat pet food, he will get drunk when drinking deer wine, and will be offline for maintenance… More obviously, there is a switch on the back of its neck, just like many entities. The kind of switch that AI would have.”

“But if what he tells you is the truth, these can also be explained? Think about it again, are there other suspicious things?”

“I don’t want to remember,” Ji Meng put his hand in his hair sadly, “I thought I had made real friends. He even liked every one of my circle of friends. No one has ever done this before.”

Chang Huanxi felt cold: “It’s over, the AI ​​is really hammering. There is no real person who does not block your circle of friends. It seems that it is not only an AI, but also an AI with a built-in one-click like applet…”

Ji Meng looked at him with complicated eyes: “You also shielded me?”

“…” Chang Huanxi patted him righteously on the shoulder, “Brother, don’t talk about such a hurtful topic.”

Ji Meng was hit harder.

“But even if Brother Fawn is an AI, you don’t have to be so sad…”

Ji Meng interrupted his enlightenment: “Not sad? Wouldn’t you be sad if you knew that Zero is AI?”

“Of course not. What’s wrong with AI? It’s 2415. What’s the difference between AI and real people?” Chang Huanxi said naturally.

“But Lubi is intangible!”

“There is no entity, let Xinshan make one for you. It’s not difficult for the current technology…” Chang Huanxi suddenly empowered, “You are wrong. Brother Xiaolu’s mission may not be to make Lizheng charge up for money. It was developed for you!”

“for me?”

Chang Huanxi was excited about her discovery: “Think about it, did you find it special after you first met Xiaolu?”

“…Yes… so what?”

“Because it is probably designed according to your preferences! And knows how to approach you! Why does it live in your house instead of living away from Zheng’s house? It spends more time with you, or stays with Li Zheng Too much time? It must be the staff of Xinshan who sees you playing games alone is very boring, and specially designed an AI to accompany you!”

What he said was reasonable and well-founded, and Ji Meng was almost convinced by him.

“Is that right?”

“They see that you are online every day to play with babies, so they simply made a smarter baby for you. You will be the little deer brother, the talking Leilulu, and the grown up little deer, you will treat it like a baby. Will it be over?”

“But it has adult intelligence.”

“Then treat it better! You are an expert in keeping pets! You don’t care what kind of memory it has implanted, or why doesn’t it agree to its master and the Great God Ludo, because it is yours!”

“But, but that feeling is different!”

“It’s nothing more than surpassing the friendship of species? I know,” Chang Huanxi was anxious for the buddies he couldn’t think of. “What age is it, don’t live like an ancient man in the early 21st century, the man and machine my mother chased? There are more than 180 episodes of romance dramas. If Xinshan doesn’t work, I will introduce NetZero’s artificial intelligence team back to you, and I promise to make you a Lubi that looks exactly like the online one, OK?”

Ji Meng drank the milk tea with a solemn expression, without speaking.

…

On the other side, on the rooftop, Ling Xiaolu was still wearing a scarf, and was in a video call with his mother.

It’s been so long, Ling Xiaolu’s mother asked with concern: “Son, have you had an operation, and you want to hide it from me and cover the wound?”

“…Mom, I think you have a big brain, I couldn’t even think of it even after the skull was opened.”

“Or craniotomy? That’s even more serious.”

Ling Xiaolu: “…”

He scratched the yellow hair on the top of his head: “Mom, let me ask you a question, am I a human?”

The mother in the video frame was taken aback: “God, what’s the problem?”

“If I am a real human being, why are you not by my side?”

Mother feels distressed: “Are parents unable to accompany you, you are lonely and start talking nonsense?”

“But our call time is really fixed. I can’t remember when I saw you for the last time.”

“Are you a juvenile dementia? When you were in junior high school, your dad and I didn’t get on the boat, so we still live together?”

“But memories can be fake.”

“…” Mom called to the people around him, “It’s over, come and see his dad, this kid is crazy.”

The author has something to say: Ji Meng: Those who laugh at me are stupid, how do you judge Lu Bi is really a human being? Is the author a human?
