Your Cheat Balance is Insufficient - Chapter 220

    The youth in white gulped nervously, he looked like he wanted to rush out – but a researcher, escaping in front of security, was clearly out of line.

    At this time, the convenience of identity comes out. Tang Xiao easily pried open the door with a baton and walked into the room, “What are you doing here?”

    The youth took a deep breath and tried to make himself appear more confident: “I am a researcher, of course I can come here. Are you not a security guard? You should go to those intruding tourists and ask me why ?”

    Tang Xiao just looked at him quietly: “ID card.”

    “…”

    Security, at this time, you don’t need to argue.

    Under the stare, the young man in white had to show his ID card, and asked with flickering eyes, “Can I go now?”

    “Nie Bai. Researcher in the fourth research building, data security and **** office.” Tang Xiao read out the identity of the other party and raised his head, “You are a researcher in the fourth research building, but this is the fifth research building.”

    “So, what are you doing here, not working in your position?”

    The researcher was dumb, he opened his mouth and didn’t know how to explain. Can only answer bluntly: “Of course I have something to do. You are a security guard, don’t meddle in your own business!”

    -It seems that the quest related to this npc is limited to the player, and will not involve other people.

    Tang Xiao was not interested in the mission he represented, but after seeing the footprints on the ground, she stopped Nie Bai.

    “Apart from you, who else has entered this room?”

    Nie Bai stammered again: “How do I know, I just came in to find something, no, I just walked around… Anyway, why are you stopping me, if you delay work, Are you responsible?”

    He is clearly lying.

    This room has been abandoned for a long time, and there is a thick layer of dust on the ground, which also makes the footprints on it particularly clear.

    In addition to Nie Bai’s own, there were traces of two adult men walking on the ground. The three of them overlapped, right next to the documents scattered on the ground.

    And these footprints only enter, not go out.

    Tang Xiao pondered for a few seconds, looked at Nie Bai who was getting more and more anxious and excited, and suddenly asked, “Do you know Wang Xiaowen in the third research building?”

    “I tell you, our time is precious… eh?”

    The topic was suddenly changed, Nie Bai’s face was blank for a moment, he even thought for two seconds along Tang Xiao’s line of thought: “I seem to have heard of this person, why, why are you asking me about this? ?”

    Tang Xiao: “Wang Xiaowen works in the second research building. Because of the power outage in the fifth research building, she is very worried that the third research building will also be in trouble, so please ask me to investigate. Since you are The data security and *** office must also know about the cause of the power outage.”

    In addition to the fact that the name is true, the rest is all Tang Xiao’s words.

    That npc named Wang Xiaowen does have a side story, but that is another mission entirely.

    She doesn’t need the other party to fully trust her, she just needs to have an entry point, and sure enough, Nie Bai’s eyes are visibly nervous: “Even the people in the second research building know… Me, neither do I Clearly, you go to someone to ask about this kind of thing, aren’t there many researchers in the building? They must know.”

    Standing in an empty and silent building, the other party seriously said that there are many people in the building. If a novice player stands here, it is estimated that goosebumps will get up.

    Tang Xiao is accustomed to it, she knows that the dungeon world is often different in the eyes of NPCs and players.

    In the eyes of the players, this place is empty like a ghost building, but in the eyes of Nie Bai, there may still be people coming and going—it may even be because of the particularity of the dungeon, and the consciousness of the NPC is also split, and he himself may Not sure what the status is here.

    From the performance point of view, the only certainty is that the power outage in this building must be inseparable from the other party.

    So by the time Nie Bai reacted, he was already controlled by Tang Xiao.

    “You guys, why are you all like this!” The young man was about to cry, but he couldn’t struggle against each other, and his whole body was like a fish being patted and twisted in vain, “I want to call the security over here! “

    Tang Xiao: “Thank you, I am the security guard.”

    Nie Bai was almost dizzy, and in the end he could only stop crying and was forced to answer questions.

    —Did you report the tourist police? where are they now?

    —What does the power outage in the Fifth Research Building have to do with you, why are you sneaking around here?

    “I, I really didn’t mean to…”

    Under the forced confession, the NPC became the weaker party, and had to tell everything.

    “I lost a packet, and who knows, it could affect the power supply system. Woohoo, but I really can’t remember how I lost it…”

    After listening to the other party’s intermittent explanation, Tang Xiao roughly understood the cause and effect.

    Nie Bai is responsible for collating and maintaining the stability of all laboratory data. But a few days ago, he suddenly discovered that a data packet that he was responsible for had disappeared from the system. Soon, the second research building and the fifth research building suffered power outages one after another, affecting the research of the two program streets, but no reason could be found.

    As the person responsible for the accident, Nie Bai was afraid of being punished, so he concealed the reason and wanted to make up for the accident in private through other means.

    The best result, of course, is to retrieve the packet. But it is not convenient for him to come forward in person, so he can only hand over the task to others.

     “All, you hired a group of workers who just entered the town, and asked them to go to the designated place to find data.”

    Nie Bai nodded with a sad face: “I paid a lot of money!”

    But today when the task was supposed to be delivered, the group of hired people disappeared and put him away. As a result, Nie Bai didn’t dare to go back to the Fourth Research Building all day today, so he had to come out to find someone by himself.

    During this process, he also encountered two unreasonable tourists, so scared that he called security, and these two tourists were taken away.

    It is self-evident that those “employees” are the last batch of players. They used the plane bug and Tang Xiao and others to replace the position halfway, which caused the npc task in the copy to be interrupted and appeared. A chaotic state like Nie Bai was at a loss.

    As for the two tourists… According to Nie Bai’s description, it is undoubtedly Li Hua and Han Leilei.

    “Take away?” Tang Xiao grabbed a little and continued to ask, “Where were they taken?”

    “How would I know, I’m not a security guard. Probably your security room or something.”

    Nie Bai wiped his face, “In short, that’s the way it is, I can’t tell you how much you ask me. If you want to report me, I can’t help it… This matter is indeed My fault. But before that, I have to go back to my job.”

    It is worthy of the copy named “Program Street”. Even the employees are in the spirit of hard work and death.

    —When the NPC wants to return to its position, it is like a story that has been recorded, and the player can no longer participate in it.

    Just a second before Nie Bai pushed the door and left, a voice suddenly sounded behind him:

    “Then why did you take those documents?”

    After Li Hua and Han Leilei were taken away, Nie Bai sneaked in and tried to sneak away the documents abandoned in the room.

    If his task is only to retrieve the missing data packet, then this behavior is superfluous, and it does not match the original behavior logic.

    Nie Bai was stunned for a moment, and muttered, “Yeah, why should I take those documents? It seems to be very important…but I can’t remember…”

    He suddenly froze, raised his head suddenly, and wanted to turn around and say something to Tang Xiao, but he was only halfway through his outstretched hand, and his figure was already engulfed by the darkness outside the door.

    “Drip-drip-drip-“

    “The tourist has been arrested, please rush back to the post within ten minutes, do not stay in the spare area, otherwise you will be fired!”

    “The tourist has been arrested, please security within ten minutes…”

    Ignoring the alarm, Tang Xiao picked up the documents on the ground, and several yellowed diary papers fell down quickly.

    At the moment she touched the paper, a faint resistance came, as if some kind of force did not want her to touch the content of the text.

    —The more blocked, the more important the information.

    In five minutes.

    “So it was…”

    After reading it carefully, Tang Xiao’s eyes darkened. Not only for the information in the diary, but also because after reading it, she found that there were several rows of tiny scratches on the back of the paper, which could only be detected by carefully rubbing it.

    But under the light, these scratches can’t be connected into words at all, like a mysterious code that needs to be decrypted, quietly engraved in place.

    “I changed a part of the program data, giving the possibility of change to every innocent person…” Tang Xiao read out the last sentence of the diary that came to an abrupt end.

    The meaning of the sentence caught her attention.

    “The possibility of change” is only a possibility, which means that not all “innocents” can successfully obtain it.

    At least until now, no one has succeeded – otherwise this spooky town would not exist.

    In the end, only a few people may receive the gift of the person who wrote the diary. And the first step, first of all…

    “Verify your identity.”

    Tang Xiao’s fingertips sent a small cluster of electricity, and the power began to flow on the surface of his body, illuminating the dimly lit room.

    Just as the current was about to touch the paper, a meow suddenly sounded from behind. Tang Xiao turned around and saw a light and small shadow pass over the wall, landed under the light of the flashlight, and called out to her.

    “Meow-“

    Tang Xiao stretched out his hand: “Is that you?”

    The cat shadow didn’t answer, just jumped out the door and disappeared into the shadow of the door.

    It appears at this time, is it a guide or a warning?

    Tang Xiao was silent for a second, put away the diary paper in his hand, and pushed out the door—

    In an instant, the sky was bright and the voices were boiling.

    The moment she pushed the door, the time and space in the research building were replaced at the same time!

    “Security, where is the security!”

    Several researchers in white lab coats rushed out, and the next second, they saw Tang Xiao who had just come out, and hurriedly grabbed her, “Go to the fifth floor, there is a disturbance on the fifth floor, and they stole our Important data!”

    Tang Xiao frowned.

    Data again?
