[Umbrella withdraws its investment in Sindora, questions its safety. Virtual reality suffers heavy losses?!]
"I didn't expect foreign countries to be so good at shocking people."
Fangzheng couldn't help but sigh as he read the newspaper while sipping on his tea. In his opinion, this wasn't a big deal, but it wasn't the case for Sindora. As a giant in the IT industry, Sindora had been preparing for this for a long time. In fact, Umbrella's withdrawal of investment had no effect on Sindora's research and development work. What was more important was … public opinion.
Yes, it didn't matter if people talked nonsense in the newspaper, but gambling with real money was very conspicuous. In fact, thanks to Sindora's unbridled promotion, almost everyone believed that virtual reality was the future of the game industry. Many large consortia and companies in Japan had joined in.
And amidst the cheers, Fangzheng, who was a Defying One, stood out.
It was as if everyone thought that the stock market was booming and that investing in it would definitely make a profit, but you were the only one who thought the stock market was going to collapse, so you quickly sold your shares.
This was very strange.
Moreover, with Japanese society, such behavior that went against the trend was generally not welcomed. In fact, there were many reports in the media that mocked Umbrella. Fangzheng pretended not to see it. Don't be fooled by how happy he was now. He would make a list sooner or later.
"If you didn't say those things, everything would be fine."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's mumble, Little Grief looked at him helplessly and pointed at the invitation beside him.
"If you didn't say those things, this wouldn't have happened. Are you going? "
"I'm not going."
Fangzheng glanced at the invitation and snorted.
"The boss of Sindora specifically invited you. I bet he's pissed off because of what you said in the media."
Xiao Ai looked at Fangzheng with a smile. She looked like she was watching a good show. It was no wonder Xiao Ai said that. If Fangzheng dared to say that this thing wasn't safe, he naturally had evidence. He was referring to the virtual game's "game capsule." According to the plan given by Sindora, their method is no different from Akihiko Akihiko in SAO. However, they are one step ahead of Akihiko. Akihiko only gave the players a helmet, but this Game Pod not only locks everyone inside, but it's also sealed?
Moreover, the game capsule did not have a disconnection system, nor could it be activated from the inside. It could be said that even if Fangzheng did not know the plot of "The Undead of Baker Street", he could see dozens of security risks with a glance.
Of course, there would always be safety hazards in the early stages of construction, and the same was true for airplanes. The earliest airplanes only needed to be able to fly, but modern airplanes were naturally not that simple.
But to be honest, this thing was actually more dangerous than the Full Stealth System. At least the Full Stealth System could maintain one's vital signs after one lost consciousness, but if something happened to this thing, one could only wait for death inside. Well, the coffin was already prepared, and it was a high-tech one. All one had to do was to find a place to bury it.
Perhaps the president of Sindora was so angry at Fangzheng that he almost had a heart attack, so he specially sent Fangzheng an invitation to attend the first public launch of the virtual reality game system to be held at the Popcorn City Hall tonight.
Of course, Fangzheng was … .not going!
He almost threw up in the death game, and he still wanted to do it again? No way!
"I'll go just because he invited me. Do you think I don't want to lose face? Don't join in the fun. It's not fun. "
"No problem. I'm going to watch a movie with my sister tomorrow."
Xiao Ai paused and looked at Fangzheng.
"Do you want to come with us? My sister has an extra ticket …. "
"What movie? I don't watch romance movies. "
"I don't either. It's sci-fi."
"Okay, as long as it's not 'I love you' or 'I love you'. Oh, mom, don't be angry because of me …."
"Phew …."
Xiao Ai lowered her head and breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Fangzheng agree.
The reason why she invited Fangzheng to watch a movie with her was naturally part of Xiao Ai's plan. The reason was simple …. She wanted to bring her sister and Fangzheng together!
Xiao Ai could tell that her sister liked Fangzheng, but for some reason, she never confessed to Fangzheng. This made Xiao Ai anxious. She knew that Fangzheng was quite popular. After all, Ming Mei was usually working, and Xiao Ai spent more time with Fangzheng, so she observed him more carefully.
In fact, according to Xiao Ai's observation, it was normal for Fangzheng to be popular with women. He was young, handsome, rich, and didn't have those annoying showy traits. Although he sometimes behaved very rudely, he unexpectedly didn't make people feel disgusted. Instead, he gave people a sense of unrestrained freedom.
Not to mention, he was actually a very gentle and considerate person, so it was normal for him to be popular with girls.
Xiao Ai knew that the Shimasato sisters at home looked at Fangzheng very strangely, not to mention Kun Shimabude, Natsumi Kasaka, and Yoko Okuno, who appeared during the movie casting. Xiao Ai could swear with her woman's intuition that they also had a good impression of Fangzheng!
Although Xiao Ai also thought that her elder sister was a rather beautiful woman, wasn't the others the same as well? Kun Shimabude was gentle and sweet, Natsumi Kasaka was cheerful and lively, and Yoko Okuno was an idol. Her sister basically had no advantage over the three of them. The only advantage she had was that she had spent a lot of time with Fangzheng ….
But her sister never seized the opportunity …!
Xiao Ai felt mentally exhausted.
Although they lived together, Fangzheng really treated Xiao Ai and Ming Mei like his own younger sisters. Xiao Ai was really worried that if this continued, Fangzheng would only treat Ming Mei as his younger sister ….
"By the way, Mr. Fangzheng."
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai took a deep breath and decided to take her sister's place first.
"Do you have a woman you like?"
"Yes."
However, to Xiao Ai's surprise, Fangzheng nodded and admitted it. He didn't even stutter. He even looked at the newspaper in his hand. His reaction was as though someone had asked him if he had eaten today.
"Yes … Yes?!"
Hearing this, Xiao Ai suddenly became nervous.
"Who is it?"
"Oh, you don't know each other."
In other words, it's not the same women from before … Hmm … Wait a minute, now is not the time to relax!
"When will you introduce us to each other?"
"We'll see. It's unlikely for now, but I can introduce them to you after we deal with the Black Man Organization."
Fangzheng replied casually as he flipped through the newspaper. Xiao Ai nodded, then suddenly froze.
Wait … What the hell does she mean by "them"?
"What do you mean by them? Mr. Fangzheng, do you have more than one girlfriend? "
"That's not nonsense."
Fangzheng's expression was like Xiao Ai asking if the Earth was round.
"How can a handsome and rich young man like me only have one girlfriend?"
"…"
Meow meow meow?
At that moment, Little Grief looked at Fangzheng with a dumbfounded look.
What you said makes sense, but why do I feel like something is wrong?
"Mr. Fangzheng, are you such a playboy?"
"You can understand it that way."
Fangzheng shrugged.
"They like me, and I like them, so we're together. I don't think there's a problem."
"But love isn't like this, right …?"
Xiao Ai felt like her outlook on life had been led astray.
"You mean like Kudo Shinichi and Lan? To be honest, I can understand, but I can't empathize with them. "
Fangzheng shook his head and turned the newspaper again.
"To be honest, I think Kudou Shinichi likes Lan, and Lan likes Kudou Shinichi. It's very romantic for them to see each other as the only one. I can see their loyalty and trust in each other, but … I can't do that myself."
Although Fangzheng complained every day that he wanted to make Kudo Shinichi a cuckold, he was just saying it. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan were in love with each other. They were the type who were willing to sacrifice everything for each other. Fangzheng naturally wouldn't separate such "true love."
On the other hand, if Kato Megumi and An Yilun were the same … then don't blame Fangzheng for using the godly excavating technology he learned from Lanxiang Technical School.
Not only am I going to steal from you, I'm even going to make your house collapse!
"Why? Isn't that just being a playboy?"
"I didn't say that I'm not. I'm just treating others the way I think is love."
With that said, Fangzheng looked up and swept a glance at Little Grief.
"Or do you know what love is?"
"…"
Xiao Ai did not say anything. Her life before she became small was all about experiments and lab rats. Love? She was in love with lab rats? Or with amino acids?
"You don't have a boyfriend, do you?"
Seeing that Xiao Ai did not speak, Fangzheng chuckled.
"That's why I said it's a little too early for a little girl to fall in love … especially at your age."
What a pain in the ass!
Hearing this, Xiao Ai snorted coldly and walked out of the room with a cold face. It's not like I want to become small! If I didn't become small, I'd still be a beautiful girl. I want to find a boyfriend … Thinking of this, Xiao Ai suddenly felt dejected again.
Who in the organization can be in a relationship …?
I might as well talk to my sister.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai thought of her sister again.
She might as well sleep with her sister tonight. It's been a long time since she had a sister talk … Maybe this is a good opportunity?
Fangzheng did not care about Xiao Ai's thoughts. What kind of love was a child talking about? Well, strictly speaking, if Xiao Ai returned to her original age, then some of Fangzheng's girlfriends would be younger than her, but being young did not mean that she had not been in love before. In terms of the concept of love, there were a few girls in Fangzheng's house who might know better than Xiao Ai.
Of course, Fangzheng also knew that those girls had feelings for Fangzheng, but this world was the same as the world of love. Fangzheng did not dare to open a harem.
Why? The reason was simple. How many episodes of Detective Conan were filled with women killing scumbags?!
Compared to the "crude and simple" method of stabbing a man with a kitchen knife in the love world, the women in this world had all kinds of martial arts when it came to dealing with men. There were all kinds of secret chamber killing methods. If Fangzheng were to start a harem here, it would not only be a matter of his life, but a matter of how he was going to die ….
Sigh, it's hard to hold it in for so long.
Fangzheng also wanted to help some poor women who had to come out to make a living, but this world did not give him any face. Such a profession did not exist at all …. This made Fangzheng have nowhere to vent his passion. If he continued to hold it in, he might become a pervert ….
But if he wanted to get a girlfriend in this world, it would be very easy for him to be killed ….
Just as Fangzheng was considering whether to go to Ginza to have some fun, his mobile phone suddenly rang. Then, Fangzheng put down the newspaper and answered the call.
"Hello, Officer Mumu. What's the matter?"
"Ah, Brother Fang, are you busy now?"
Officer Mumu's voice sounded a little heavy.
"Not too busy. What's the matter?"
"It's like this. There's some trouble at the Popcorn City Hall …."
Officer Mumu lowered his voice.
"Can you come and take a look?"
"…."
Fangzheng immediately knew what Officer Mumu wanted him to do.
