Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game - Chapter 135
Ringo was startled.
He thought for a moment, and finally, as always, said with his straightforward and candid attitude: “I’m very happy. I’m really – I’m willing to stand by your side, North End.”
Xu Beijin smiled lightly.
To ask him to say more, he might not be able to do it, but he can always say something like this. He wanted Ringo to understand this.
For him, what he needed was not Ringo’s value and ability, but just him.
It’s just his company and support. This is his lover, his partner.
Perhaps his long silence and restraint made Ringo unable to perceive this. And Ringo was originally an impassive person.
Therefore, he should tell Ringo about this.
Xu Bei paid close attention to Ringo’s movements. Soon after, Ringo came to the end of the road. A faint gap appeared in front of Ringo.
Ringo asked strangely, “Why didn’t this gap appear before?”
Xu Beijin said: “This bug appeared in the gray fog nightmare, not just in the gray fog. Therefore, it needs me or NE to fall asleep before this bug may appear.
“If you return to the nightmare from the boundary of a narrow building, then this gap will always exist;
But if you want to enter the boundary of the narrow building from the nightmare, you still have to repeat the previous steps again. “
Xu Beijin added very rigorously, he already knew what Ringo would think.
Ringo let out a silent “Oh”, and could only take back some of the delusions.
In addition, he did not express any surprises about Xu Beijin’s identity.
But he still asked: “So, do you even get help from NE now?”
“Almost, I can use part of its permissions now.” Xu Beijin replied, “but it is only temporary.”
Ringo nodded.
Xu Beijin asked him again: “After returning to the bottom of the narrow building, you go to Mu Jiashi and the others. I still have something to tell them.”
Ringo answered, then entered the gap and returned to the maze.
Subsequently, Xu Beijin awakened NE. The Grey Mist Nightmare automatically has a special ending.
Xu Bei paid close attention to Ringo’s position, and noticed that he had returned to the bottom of the narrow building, and he was relieved for an instant.
NE walked slowly and stiffly to Xu Beijin’s side and said, “Your lover is safe.”
Xu Beijin glanced at him and said indifferently: “No need to rush. I will deal with the ultimate nightmare.”
NE nodded, then pointed to the control panel and said: “Presumably you have noticed. I am not in a good running condition now.”
“Because of the gray fog?”
NE’s reply is very simple: “Yes…”
Xu Bei frowned slightly.
NE said: “According to your statement, only you can gain the trust of those players, but I can’t. Therefore, I want to leave the ultimate nightmare to you.
“Wait…when the final choice comes, you will wake me up again. I need enough time to deal with things related to the fog.”
Xu Bei’s face was as sinking as water, seemingly reluctant, but there was an incredible surprise in his heart.
He looked at NE secretly, and thought, if he wasn’t convinced that this guy is NE, then he might suspect that a certain human crossing might become NE.
Xu Bei was thinking wildly, but just after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said, “I know. You go to sleep.”
Xu Bei watched NE enter the dormant state, and then narrowed his eyes slightly.
He thought, if NE is not dormant, then he will have a headache how to deal with this matter instead. Maybe it will take more effort.
He wondered unbelievably, why would NE trust him so much?
Then he realized that perhaps most of the reason is that NE thinks he is its kind. NE believes that Xu Beijin is also an artificial intelligence.
Xu Bei could not help but sneer.
His position with NE is at least the same now. However, this does not mean that NE really does not intend to kill him.
NE still wants to delete the “junk data” in its eyes, and Xu Bei, of course, does not want to die.
His eyes flickered and he seemed to be thinking about something.
But then, he still focused on the control panel in front of him. For some time to come, he might have to use this thing to communicate with his companions.
He still followed Ringo.
In fact, he wanted to talk to Ringo for a while now. The progress of the matter is dizzying. He now has mixed feelings in his heart. In addition, he has just confirmed the relationship with Ringo, and he is shocked because of Ringo’s identity…
In short, his current mind is a little confused. He wanted to be alone with Ringo for a while, calm for a while.
But Xu Bei knows that now is not the time to do this kind of thing.
Xu Beijin sighed secretly, and could only force himself to settle serious matters first.
Ringo returned to the bottom of the narrow building, and soon found Mu Jiashi and others.
It was already the second afternoon after they entered Xu Beijin’s nightmare. It seemed that Xu Beijin and Ringo were wasting more time than they thought in the boundary of the narrow building.
Ringo’s return made these taskers a little strange.
Mu Jiashi hesitated for a while, and then asked: “Big brother, didn’t you go to the top of the narrow building with him?”
“I can’t go.” Ringo explained briefly, and then said, “Beijing has already contacted me.”
Mu Jiashi couldn’t help being stunned for a moment, and didn’t understand why Ringo couldn’t go to the top floor of the narrow building.
Is it just Ringo that is special, or is it that other taskers can’t go to the top of the narrow building?
All kinds of problems flashed quickly in Mu Jiashi’s brain.
But then, Ringo’s words immediately wiped out the thoughts in his brain. He immediately asked sternly: “What did he say?”
At this moment, everyone heard Xu Beijin’s voice ringing in their ears: “I am here.”
Several people present were stunned.
Mu Jiashi looked around, and suddenly felt that Xu Beijin’s image was even more mysterious and unpredictable.
Xu Beijin briefly explained: “I convinced NE, and now I can temporarily use part of the game master’s permissions.”
Several taskers and residents of the narrow building were stunned, and then cheered for joy. They have all realized that at least their first step has been successful. They hugged and applauded each other, and the atmosphere was very warm.
When Ringo came in just now, the dull and depressing atmosphere that lingered in the room almost instantly disappeared.
They are all worried that Xu Bei will never return, and they are all worried that everything they have done is just useless.
It’s like the labyrinth that humans have exhausted all means to build.
The bells and whistles are magnificent. But it is useless.
The good news brought by Ringo and Xu Beijin immediately lifted their spirits and realized that they had truly held hope in their hands!
Mu Jiashi clenched his fists almost subconsciously, and his whole body was so excited that he almost trembled.
He heard Ding Yi muttering to the side: “We have hope… saved her, right?”
Jiang Shuangmei responded happily: “Of course! We can save everyone!”
Mu Jiashi couldn’t help laughing.
After a while, everyone calmed down again.
Xu Beijin also waited patiently for a period of time to let this group of stressful taskers and residents of the narrow building vent their emotions.
Afterwards, he asked about the progress of things currently in charge of Ding Yi, Dai Wu and Su Enya.
Ding Yi responded truthfully: “We may still need some time.”
Xu Bei pondered for a moment, and then asked: “How many people have you contacted now?”
“Most of the taskers have already been contacted, and we have probably thousands of people who have not been able to contact the figures obtained from them.” Ding Yi said, looking at Dai Wu, “Zhailou residents. Here…”
Dai Wu said in a timely manner: “Our situation is similar. But what’s worse is that even if some narrow-building residents are contacted, he may be half crazy and half stupid, and he doesn’t understand us at all.”
Su Enya simply replied: “It’s the same on my side. Most of them got in touch.”
Xu Bei thought for a moment.
In this case, the last group of people, through the task force and the residents of the narrow building, would be very difficult to find.
They may hide in a certain corner of the narrow building, or be isolated from the world, not interacting with others, and immersed in their own world.
In this case, even if he knows his existence, it is difficult to find his people.
In the end, Xu Beijin set his sights on the dashboard in front of him.
He can query the number of players on each floor of the narrow building, including residents and outsiders, and their respective locations through the dashboard.
In this way, he can check with Ding Yi and others how many people they have found.
In addition, with Xu Bei sitting on the top floor of the narrow building, the exchange of information is not a big problem. He can become a hub for information exchange and transmission.
So after hesitating for a while, Xu Beijin said: “Do you have a corresponding contact person on each floor? I need to find him. There is one on the first floor, regardless of the task force or the residents of the narrow building.”
Taskers who could do nothing about this matter looked at each other and kept silent.
Ding Yi, Dai Wu, and Su Enya recalled and reported the corresponding contacts one by one.
At this time, Su Enya didn’t have a temper with Dai Wu anymore. She—he, frowning, thinking constantly.
Xu Beijin checked according to the name they said and marked the corresponding target.
Finally, Xu Beijin said: “There are still no contacts on some floors.”
These floors may be places where the sphere of influence of the three people has not reached, or it may be because they have been there before and then left. No matter what, there will always be some fish slipping through the net.
At this time, it was the turn of the rest of the taskers to play.
These taskers present, whether it is Fei and Wujian, or higher-level taskers such as He Shujun, Ye Lan, Jiayi, Jiaer, they always have their own familiar taskers.
In addition, A1 and A2 directly said that they can contact the gold nugget organization. This organization must be able to provide enough channels and contacts.
Xu Bei did what he said, and directly found the leader of the Nuggets organization.
The other party responded with 120,000 points of alert and vigilance to his sudden appearance, but after Xu Beijin said the names of Jiayi, Jiaer, Mu Jiashi and others, he became half-trusted.
Xu Beijin served as a transit, and the three of Mu Jiashi gave out some information enough to win the trust of this leader, and Xu Beijin also informed him of what they were doing.
Then the leader of the famous Narrow House Gold Nuggets organization said in shock: “You actually saved the world without telling me?!”
Xu Beijin: “…”
He suddenly wondered what kind of group the Nuggets Organization was.
But thinking about the reaction of the first and second class when they heard that Xu Bei had a nightmare, the reply of the leader of the Nuggets organization didn’t seem to be that surprising…
Because before that, things about the ultimate nightmare had been raging in the narrow building, so after hearing that Xu Bei had come, the leader quickly agreed to Xu Beijin’s request.
He even asked nervously: “Are we about to succeed now, or are we on the road to success?”
Xu Beijin felt a little funny, after thinking about it, he replied, “On the way to success.”
The other party was shocked for a while, not knowing whether Xu Bei was joking or serious.
Subsequently, the leader joined their conversation remotely.
Finally, when night fell, Xu Bei relied on the connections of these taskers and residents of the narrow building throughout the entire narrow building, and found at least one contact person on each floor.
But Mu Jiashi couldn’t help but sighed: “Higher level, there is no way.”
Those extremely high floors that they have not touched on are also helpless.
The residents of the narrow buildings and those on the task, they may still be immersed in nightmares, trying to improve their floors, and even turning a blind eye to things outside the window.
For these people, they don’t even know how to contact.
Xu Beijin said: “Don’t worry. I can find them here.”
His tone was very light, with a sense of reason and determination to the extreme.
At this moment, Ringo suddenly said, “Are you tired?”
Xu Bei paused.
The surrounding taskers and the residents of the narrow building coughed, and then Mu Jiashi said in a timely manner: “Well, it’s getting late, and I should take a rest. Everyone… just leave. Let’s go…”
“It’s going to go, it’s going to go.”
“Don’t be in a hurry at this moment, I’m asleep now.”
“Yeah yeah, I’m exhausted.”
“Go away. See you tomorrow…”
“Saving the world also requires adequate rest!”
“That’s right, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye!”
The crowd dispersed like birds.
Ringo blinked, thought about it, and stood up.
Xu Beijin was silent for a moment, and found that his companions had disappeared without a trace.
He couldn’t laugh or cry, and couldn’t help but yawn.
He was really tired, from the moment he entered his nightmare, or from the moment he entered the narrow building… endless exhaustion has always accumulated in his heart.
Perhaps it is indeed time to take a break.
Moreover, he still has the power of the mastermind… Maybe he can temporarily shut off his nightmare? Let him not enter the gray mist when he sleeps?
Xu Beijin’s heart moved instantly.
But he still answered Ringo’s question first: “A little tired…”
Ringo complained and said, “It’s not a little bit, it’s very. You should rest for a while, North End.”
Xu Beijin said: “I think so too. I am going to close my nightmare and get a good night’s sleep.”
“Is this okay?” Ringo blinked. He couldn’t see Xu Beijin, he could only hear Xu Beijin’s voice. He guessed his state through Xu Beijin’s voice, “This is the best way, you have a good rest.”
Xu Bei completely agreed, and suddenly asked, “Where are you going?”
“Back to the bookstore…” Ringo replied.
They had gathered at Ding Yi before and handled all the affairs.
And now, since everyone has gone, Ringo also voluntarily left Ding Yi’s house, planning to go back to Xu Beijin’s bookstore to rest.
Ringo said, “I don’t like to stay in other places. I want to be in a place where I can feel your presence.”
Xu Bei smiled, and felt a little ironing.
Soon, Ringo came to Xu Beijin’s bookstore.
Now he can go in and out of Xu Beijin’s bookstore freely, instead of having to have Xu Beijin at home before he can enter. Long ago, Xu Beijin had changed his authority.
Now Ringo is also one of the owners of this bookstore. He hasn’t even returned to his room not far from this bookstore for a long time.
Xu Beijin saw the dashboard, behind the “bookstore on the ground floor of the narrow building,” and followed the name of Ringo, who was lightly shining.
He suddenly thought, it was really amazing.
When he and Ringo first met, he found this man unreasonable and annoying. How can there be people who are so persistent and want to fight with him?
Even if Xu Beijin refused countless times, Ringo still insisted on his own opinions.
And then Ringo deliberately bought drinks to please him, and took the initiative to intervene in his boring life…
There are other moves that inevitably shortened their distance.
Regardless, it seemed that from the moment Ringo noticed Xu Beijin, their future was destined to be tightly bound together.
They are special in the narrow building, and only they can understand this speciality.
Thinking of this, Xu Bei couldn’t help feeling an unspeakable touch.
He lost his mind for a moment, and then used the control panel to lock his nightmare first, so that he could not enter the nightmare while sleeping.
He can only lock into his own nightmare, after all, he can now be said to be the “mastermind”, and this is the “mastermind” nightmare.
As for the nightmares of other narrow-building residents, he can do nothing. The authority of the game’s main brain does not allow them to get rid of the torture of nightmares, this is the setting of the game itself.
There is only Xu Beijin’s special identity, and NE has entered a dormant state.
The owner of the gray mist nightmare has already appeared, so Xu Beijian can take advantage of the loopholes and let him sleep well.
Subsequently, Xu Beijin changed the division of the top floor of the narrow building again, and made a separate and enclosed space for himself, and left a window——
Unlike NE, he can sleep in such a closed and empty place.
A bed was placed next to the window, but the scenery outside the window was only the plain gray fog.
But now Xu Beijin’s mentality is different.
Before, there were only his compatriots in the gray mist, but now, there is a NE in the gray mist…
Whenever he thinks of this, Xu Beijin feels a little happy and gloating.
What’s wrong with artificial intelligence? Doesn’t artificial intelligence have a headache of junk data?
It’s just these junk data…
Thinking of this, Xu Bei’s smile faded, and after all, he couldn’t help but sigh.
He stopped thinking about the frustrating things and talked to Ringo instead.
He finally had a chance to have a good conversation with Ringo. He told him about his identity, his own experience, the situation facing humanity, and the conversation between him and NE. After hesitating for a while, he said again. Ringo’s memory problem.
“Do you want to restore your memory?”
Xu Beijin was lying on the bed, and Ringo was already on the bed.
Xu Beijin felt sleepy, but he still resisted, trying to stay awake, and asked Ringo.
Ringo said something vaguely.
“What?” Xu Beijin asked, “I didn’t hear clearly.”
“I listen to you.” Ringo said, “I don’t think it matters.”
Xu Beijin immediately became sober, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: “That’s your past.”
“I don’t think that is my past.” Ringo said honestly, “That is… a past that doesn’t belong to me. I don’t know what I will become after I regain that memory.”
Xu Bei was silent.
Of course he is also worried about this matter. He was worried-what if Ringo, who has memories, looked unfamiliar with him? Even if Ringo recovers his memory, he doesn’t like herself anymore?
But every time he thinks of this, Xu Beijin feels ashamed. He felt that he shouldn’t think like this, he should trust Ringo. He thought it was a…very selfish thought.
But Ringo obviously also knew that this problem existed.
After all, Ringo didn’t necessarily want to regain that memory. That was forgotten by him… the past. The “Ringo” was actually dead.
Xu Beijin was silent for too long, and he felt that he should say something.
But Ringo preemptively said: “I don’t particularly want to restore my memory.” He said frankly, “I think I’m fine now, with you—there are others, but mainly with you, for a goal. effort.
“I think this has made me very happy. If I recover my memory, I think I will face more changes.”
Xu Bei was full of words and stopped.
Afterwards, Ringo said in a brisk tone: “Wait until we have successfully saved the world. Also, Beijin, you can help me see what that memory looks like.”
Xu Bei was stunned, unable to laugh or cry for a while: “What do you mean by me to help you see…”
“I believe you.”
Xu Beijin was silent almost all of a sudden.
Ringo said softly: “If you think you will like me after you restore your memory, let me restore your memory. If you don’t like me in that memory, then you won’t recover.”
Xu Bei couldn’t help frowning. He said, “Lingo, I am not…this is your memory. You can’t judge based on my preferences…”
“But I do.” Ringo said, “My world is always blank. You always say that to me. My world is all you—you, and you are with me.
“I think this is pretty good. I really don’t care about the memories of the past.”
He said sincerely.
Xu Beijin’s lips moved.
He wanted to say that Ringo has not yet seen the vast world;
He is just a…NPC living in this closed game world.
Xu Bei didn’t want to use this word to describe Ringo, but it did summarize Ringo well.
So at this moment, when they might be able to leave the narrow building, Xu Beijin began to hope that Ringo’s world would be more colorful.
He hadn’t thought about it before. Before, they were just prisoners in a narrow building, so there was no need to think about that. But it’s different now.
Although the two of them may not even be able to leave the narrow building.
Xu Bei laughed bitterly.
Ringo heard Xu Beijin’s self-deprecating laugh, and he knew that his lover was always unconsciously pessimistic.
He said, “Don’t think about it. Remember, wait until we save the world and then think about it-no, wait until we finish the “non-business” thing. “
Xu Bei was speechless, and after a moment he said, “You know this?”
“Because I want to be more intimate with you.” Ringo was very straightforward, “The kind of negative distance.”
Xu Beijin only felt hot on his face, thinking that fortunately no one could see it. He gave up on himself and said softly: “Yes.”
Ringo turned over and sat up on the bed, thought for a while, and said solemnly, “But you are not at the bottom of the narrow building now.”
There was a deep smile in Xu Beijin’s voice: “So, we shouldn’t do this kind of thing now.”
Ringo: “…”
Is it fun to tease him! !
He lay back on the bed with a slap, was angry for a long time, and then said stiffly, “Good night…”
Xu Bei couldn’t help but smile, and then replied, “Good night…”
This may be the most pleasant and relaxing evening since he entered the narrow building.
But when he woke up the next day, he still had to face more serious practical problems.
