The first day of the assessment had passed, but there were no major breakthroughs in the case.
Chen Mingming woke up as usual … A strange feeling followed, but it gradually became familiar. After all, this was the place he had lived for more than ten years.
There were sounds outside the room. It was the sound of his parents talking to his mother … What happened yesterday was indeed not a dream.
He suddenly felt a little greedy for the feeling of this moment.
After a while, Zhou Yusheng pushed the door open and came in. "Oh, you're up. I was going to wake you up. Hurry up and eat breakfast. We're going out later. "
Chen Mingming thought about the case and said, "I might go back later. I want to go to Wang Liang's workplace to take a look."
Although there was detailed information on the parchment, Chen Mingming had not been there personally, so it was inevitable that he would miss some of the details.
Zhou Yusheng was stunned, then nodded. It was a good thing that his son was so concerned about the case.
"Okay, I'll give you an application to go out later." Zhou Yusheng reminded him, "Be careful. Let me know immediately if there's any news."
After a simple conversation, Chen Mingming got up and washed up. He and his mother took advantage of the free time to have a simple conversation. Chen Mingming found that his mother had indeed forgotten about going abroad … This seemed to be the state she was in a few years ago.
A state where family was the center and career was the secondary.
Since his mother and father separated and then divorced, his mother devoted almost all her time to work. She had great achievements in her career, but the fatigue on her face was getting heavier day by day.
Chen Mingming had not seen such a hearty smile in a long time.
"I forgot to take the key!"
When they were leaving, his wife sent him and his son to the door and asked casually, "What do you want to eat for dinner?"
Zhou Yusheng was sweeter than before. He said that everything was delicious, which made his wife roll her eyes.
Chen Mingming directly said two favorite dishes, and his mother agreed with a smile.
…
Yesterday was Saturday, and today was Sunday.
On a day off, there were not many people on the streets in the early morning … Chen Mingming followed the address on the information and found the place where Wang Liang used to work.
But the bar was obviously not open.
He contacted the bar owner. After a brief explanation, the bar owner had to get up and find an employee to open the door for Chen Mingming.
Finally, when it was almost eleven o 'clock in the morning, an employee with bloodshot eyes rode his electric scooter to the door of the bar and opened it.
Chen Mingming frowned at the sight of the garbage on the ground and the various smells in the air.
That employee said awkwardly, "Sir, we usually clean the shop before opening in the afternoon … We work until three or four o 'clock in the morning, so we are exhausted …"
"I want to take a look at Wang Liang's locker," Chen Mingming said directly.
This young man was a waiter in the bar. He was young, about 20 years old. He brought Chen Mingming to Wang Liang's locker in the break room. Then, he leaned against the locker and yawned, looking dispirited.
Chen Mingming looked at the things in the cabinet. There was actually nothing here. All the things inside had been taken away … Recalling the information he had investigated, Chen Mingming began to think about the things he wanted to ask.
"What's your relationship with Wang Liang?"
"Him? They're colleagues. What's their relationship? " The young man's eyes were drowsy, and he answered casually, "Sir, you've come here several times. You've asked almost everything you want to know …"
"How's his financial situation?"
"It doesn't seem to be good. This guy likes to gamble. He owes a lot of gambling debts outside. People often come to collect debts," the young man thought for a while and said.
It's still the same as what I've investigated … Chen Mingming thought for a while, then took out his mobile phone and clicked on the photos, "Have you seen these women?"
There were photos of Zhang Xiaoqin and Wu Rong. The others were also related to Wang Liang.
"You've asked before … Aren't these Wang Liang's girlfriends?" The young man wiped his face, But speaking of which, although this guy is not good, he's really good at picking up girls. Here, this one, and this one, he often brings them to the bar. "
The young man pointed at the photos of Wu Rong and another woman.
"He often brings these two women here. Don't you say anything?" Chen Mingming asked curiously.
The young man said, "What's there to say? It's not a strange thing. As a man, it's fine to have a foot in two boats. It's a matter of being able to pick up a woman. Besides, there's no need for us to offend Wang Liang for irrelevant people. After all, we see each other often. Since he brought them here, we can just greet them as we should. "
Chen Mingming said, "I heard that before Wang Liang resigned, Wu Rong … this woman came to cause a ruckus?"
The young man nodded, "That's right. It was quite a ruckus. That woman was crazy enough. She nearly stabbed him with a knife. In the end, Wang Liang had to beg the entire way there. It took him most of the night before it was resolved. Heh, as the saying goes, one who climbs many mountains will eventually encounter a tiger. If you don't have a diamond in your hand, don't take on a porcelain job. Something was bound to happen if you messed around. "
"What happened after that?"
"After that, Wang Liang didn't come to work for a few days. He was gone for about a week. Then, he came back. After a few days, he said he was resigning. "
"Did you see Wu Rong again? Or the other woman Wang Liang brought here? "
"No, I don't think so?" The young man thought for a moment and said, "There are so many people here at night. The lights are also dim. Even if she came, I might not have noticed her."
Chen Mingming remembered the hint on the sheepskin scroll and opened another photo, "This man, have you seen him before?"
"No." The young man shook his head.
Chen Mingming nodded.
…
After leaving the bar, it was already lunchtime … Chen Mingming sat alone in a public square. He slowly exhaled and kept recalling the young man's words.
Suddenly, a huge shadow appeared before Chen Mingming.
He raised his head to look. It was a huge brown bear – of course, it wasn't a real brown bear. It was just a person wearing a prop costume.
Under Chen Mingming's astonishment, the 'brown bear' suddenly extended its claws and used force to clamp Chen Mingming's cheeks.
From the brown bear's hood came a deep voice, "Wa! Disobedient child, I will eat you ~ ~ "
"What are you doing here?" Chen Mingming asked expressionlessly.
At this time, the 'brown bear' let go of its hands and took off its hood … It was the library girl, Tara.
After taking off the hood, Tara's face was full of sweat. Then, she sat down, "Work! Didn't I say I have to work on Saturday and Sunday? I am going to travel during the summer vacation, so I need to save money! Boyfriend, why are you here? "
Chen Mingming's intuition told him that Tara didn't really have feelings for him … This girl just approached him with kindness.
"Just walking around." Chen Mingming answered subconsciously.
"Well … You want to take a good look at this city before going abroad?" Tara blinked her eyes.
Chen Mingming's lips twitched … Tara didn't have his memories temporarily altered like his parents and the other police officers in the police station.
But thinking about it, it seemed to be true … He was just participating in a five-day assessment. Changing his identity within the police station was already the greatest convenience. It seemed that it was impossible to completely change the trajectory of his life.
If it really did that … then was this world the original world, or another world?
Chen Mingming always felt like he was looking at a leopard through a tube.
"If a simple few rounds could make me feel nostalgic, I probably wouldn't have decided to go abroad." Chen Mingming shook his head and said.
"Well … You are a bit different today." Tara suddenly looked at Chen Mingming seriously.
Chen Mingming asked curiously, "What's the difference?"
Tara said seriously, "You have something on your mind, and … You have become more talkative!"
Chen Mingming was startled. It was true that he had something on his mind, but how could he explain that he became more talkative?
"And …" Tala suddenly patted Chen Mingming's head. "Your eyes are much brighter and not as cold as before. We haven't seen each other for only a day. Did something good happen to you?"
"Probably." Chen Mingming smiled subconsciously, thinking of the dinner last night.
Tara suddenly shouted, "Don't move!!"
Chen Mingming was startled.
Tara quickly took out her hand from her costume and pressed her finger on Chen Mingming's cheek, "I said this smile, don't move … It's not easy, this is the first time I saw you smile! Don't move, please don't move … "
Tara took out her phone and took a picture of the rare scene that she was talking about.
The moment the shutter sounded, Chen Mingming suddenly felt like he was in a dream.
Tara looked at her phone with satisfaction. Chen Mingming didn't know where her satisfaction came from, but he felt that her smile was really beautiful.
Tara cleared her throat and said seriously, "Well … To reward you, I will give you a special service!"
"What?"
Tara smiled slyly and put Chen Mingming on his lap. He covered Chen Mingming's eyes with his hands and said softly, "This is the best service. Enjoy it!"
The moment his eyes were covered, a wave of tiredness hit him … Once again, the feeling of lying on a grassland under the blue sky and white clouds appeared.
Chen Mingming was greedy and intoxicated, and soon fell asleep.
…
When he woke up again, the girl who was full of energy had left just like the last time.
The figure of the brown bear could no longer be seen in the square.
Chen Mingming felt full of energy, with an indescribable sense of relaxation … Recalling the investigation in the morning, Chen Mingming called an online taxi.
He felt that it was necessary to meet Zhao Le.
When getting on the car, Chen Mingming suddenly remembered that he had sent the pistol to Zhao Le … But now, he couldn't remember why he sent the pistol.
…
…
"The Authority?"
In the study, Luoqiu was slightly stunned after turning off the light and shadow.
Miss Maid stood in front of the desk and said softly, "They should have noticed something long ago, and finally got in this time."
Luoqiu thought for a while and said, "Tell me about the situation."
You Ye said, "At present, they have controlled the game company behind the scenes. But they didn't know that the server of the game company was just a window of the 'God Master Plan'. Even without the server of the game company, the game world would still run automatically. Because they didn't know the concept, they didn't even dare to shut down the original server of the game company. "
Luoqiu crossed his hands and nodded, "After this upgrade, the capacity has increased, and the number of people attracted naturally increased … It seems that the quantitative change has finally led to a qualitative change."
Miss Maid said, "Do you need to reduce the frequency?"
Luoqiu shook his head and laughed self-mockingly, "No, just follow this progress … With the speed of doing business, if there is no stable source of income, I will lose all my money sooner or later."
Miss Maid just smiled. Except for the master, she was the one who knew the boss' economic situation best … Since the sacrifice of those evil souls sold by Su Zijun, the master had become rich again … At this time, even if the master was in the mood to take another half-year vacation, it would not be a problem.
In addition, although the voice of the master was still in the service stage, and it was not the time to collect the money … But according to the current situation, when the money could be collected, it would naturally be a rich income.
"In this case, let's reduce the impact to the minimum." Miss Maid naturally didn't want to trouble her master too much. "I'll change the program again and spread the 'entrance' to the entire world's network … In this way, at least the time of qualitative change can be delayed a little."
Based on the world's population of seven or eight billion people, there was still a long time before it would cause a panic after it was distributed to all parts of the world.
"No need." Luoqiu smiled and said, "As long as the entrance of this world is closed temporarily, it will be fine."
"Master, you mean …" You Ye was stunned, and then she thought of something and suddenly said, "Other worlds?"
Luoqiu whispered, "There should be, a world with a similar level of civilization and even the state of the environment."
The answer was … yes.
"If this is the case, then we don't need to care about the growth rate anymore." Miss Maid smiled and said, "It seems that the standard of the automatic selection can be lowered. But this way, I'm afraid that the main server will start to expand … Since Master injected a huge amount of spiritual essence last time, the original server can't satisfy the self-evolution of the game world anymore."
"Then use this." Luoqiu opened his palm at this moment.
A diamond-shaped crystal emitted colorful light in the center of the boss's palm … Feeling the special aura emitted by this crystal, You Ye's eyes lit up slightly. "This is …"
"World Fragment." Luoqiu smiled and said, "I just bought it from the altar … Okay, now I'm poor again."
Miss Maid didn't care … As long as other world entrances were opened and the world fragments evolved, there would be countless souls entering the game.
This kind of investment was a huge profit with little capital.
"It seems that Taiyinzi really made a great thing by accident." Miss Maid said softly, "Master, have you thought about it from the beginning?"
Luoqiu smiled and said, "Don't think that I'm so far-sighted. This is just an idea that slowly formed later … If I didn't experience Yan Wuyue's world, I wouldn't have so many ideas. "
While explaining, Luoqiu suddenly had another idea in his mind.
Every sub-world had its own sub-manager, Alaya … All the sub-worlds were meant to nurture a perfect breeding ground for a perfect world, all under the same system.
In that case, what would happen if a self-evolving world outside of this system appeared?
