Hei Deng Xia Huo
Chapter 994 Reality
Real world, Yin City, Building 3 of the Wanhe Residential Area, living room.
"You're in a bad mood?"
Chai Chai, wearing Li Ang's skin, frowned and subconsciously squeezed her phone. "What's wrong?"
"..."
Silence fell on the other end of the line.
Chai Chai frowned tightly and asked, "Where are you right now?"
After a moment, Wang Congshan's voice sounded from the phone, "At home."
Wang Congshan's home was in the Special Affairs Bureau's residential area, with security levels no less than a Special Affairs Bureau stronghold, making it very safe.
Chai Chai felt somewhat relieved. She glanced at the spot where Li Ang had been standing and continued, "What about your parents and your cousin?"
"They're all at work."
Wang Congshan said softly, "Are you busy right now?"
"No."
Chai Chai paused, but still told the truth, "I was playing a game just now."
She guessed that, given Li Ang's personality, Wang Congshan would expect him to come running whenever she needed him. There was no way to come up with a plausible lie.
Wang Congshan's voice inhaled slightly. "Can you come see me? Or I can come to you. Let's meet. I'm very... bothered right now."
"What exactly happened?"
Chai Chai said in a deep voice, "You can tell me anything. I can solve it."
There was a long silence on the other end of the line. Wang Congshan's voice paused for a long time before she said softly, "...Just now, a voice suddenly rang in my head.
It told me that I had been chosen as a Wan Jia Xiong Meng (Player)."
Crack.
The metal phone case was subconsciously crushed by the young miss, and part of it shattered. The tempered glass screen protector shattered into a spiderweb of cracks, and glass shards slipped through her fingers.
The extinguished screen lit up again, displaying the call page with Wang Congshan.
Chai Da Xiaojie's (Young Miss Chai's) voice turned heavy, devoid of any excitement. "Calm down first. Stay in your room and don't move. I'll come find you right away. Did you tell your parents about this?"
"Not yet,"
Wang Congshan's voice sounded a little weak and lost. "I'm a little afraid to tell them."
"Okay, do you remember exactly what the voice said? Repeat it to me word for word."
Chai Chai gave the nearby Brainworm a look. The latter immediately understood and quietly entered the study, while organizing the Azure Moth Armor and other equipment and props for Chai Chai.
At the same time, it used the psionic network to issue instructions to other insect swarm units, deploying them.
On the other end of the phone, Wang Congshan took a deep breath and repeated it.
Just like what Li Ang had heard before, the player qualification notification that Wang Congshan heard
also included the novice guide program and the introduction to the kill arena game, that part about freeing your mind and embracing fate.
The difference was that Wang Congshan was directly selected by the system due to her own aptitude and talent, and was directly granted qualification and promoted to become a player, so there was no explanation of the qualification transfer program.
Thoughts raced through Chai Chai's mind. She had dozens of accounts for logging into the forums and had browsed a lot of posts.
She hadn't eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run.
She was very familiar with the novice guide program.
What Wang Congshan said was indeed the notification sent out when the kill arena game currently selected and promoted ordinary people.
And the Special Affairs Bureau employee family compound where Wang Congshan lived also had a mental protection barrier, so there shouldn't be any fabricated voices.
"Don't be nervous,"
Chai Chai said in a steady and gentle voice, "This isn't so bad. Isn't your cousin a player too?
You're still an employee's family member, and the Special Affairs Bureau is very experienced in the novice guide program.
Rookie players can get good care, so it's not that dangerous."
"I know, but..."
"It's okay,"
Chai Chai took the Azure Moth Armor handed over by the Brainworm, held up the phone and asked, "Your house is 805 in Building 16, right? I'm coming to find you now, I'll be there in half an hour."
"Um... that,"
Wang Congshan's voice hesitated. "Be careful on the road, don't ride your bike, the bell on your bike is broken."
"Don't worry, I'll take a taxi,"
Chai Chai smiled, separated from Li Ang's body, put on the Azure Moth Armor again, and put Li Ang's skin on the Azure Moth Armor.
The body and the skin were two different things.
The former was equivalent to Li Ang's whole body in a normal human state, with all parts, including the brain, intact, without a soul or the ability to think, but able to digest food normally.
The skin was just a layer of pure skin, which could be put on the Azure Moth Armor to achieve a camouflage effect.
The degree of camouflage was certainly not as high as a complete replica of the body.
But it could still fool ordinary people.
With the assistance of the Two-Knife Turkey, Chai Chai hid the biomass zipper on the back of the skin.
The latter could not go out together, so it had already begun to transform, returned to the study, and gradually turned into the shape of an ordinary cabinet -
In this state, because the brain could be submerged in the nutrient solution, it would receive more nutrition, and the connection with the psionic network would be slightly strengthened.
After everything was ready, "Li Ang" walked towards the door, holding the phone with the slightly cracked edge of the screen. "Don't hang up, I'm going out now..."
"Don't go out! They're coming for you!"
A hurried shout came from the other end of the phone.
The smile on "Li Ang's" face suddenly froze, his footsteps stopped, and his pupils instinctively contracted.
The next second, the living room window of the room shattered for no reason - a paper airplane, rapidly gliding down from the rooftop of the building across the street, shattered the room window, and landed in front of "Li Ang".

The other end of Yin City, Special Affairs Bureau headquarters.
Wang Congshan slowly lowered the plastic telephone receiver that hung down from the ceiling. The receiver was suspended by a spiral plastic telephone cord, bouncing slightly in the air.
This was a closed interrogation room.
The lights were bright, the floor was clean, the furnishings were simple. There was only a rectangular table, two armless chairs, and a red plastic telephone receiver hanging from the ceiling.
The tables and chairs were firmly fixed to the floor with metal screws.
The desk lamp on the table was also fixed with screws, to prevent the interrogatee from suddenly becoming violent and harming themselves or others.
The three walls of the interrogation room were covered with soundproof, soft, and moderately defensive decorative materials. The upper half of the wall in front of the chair was embedded with a piece of opaque, dark brown one-way glass.
The interrogator's colleagues could stand behind the one-way glass to observe the subtle expressions and all the body movements on the interrogatee's face, and make judgments.
This was the interrogation room of the Special Affairs Bureau headquarters. Usually, those who entered it were suspects involved in supernatural cases, suspected spies from foreign organizations and institutions.
In short, their identities were not too ordinary.
And now, Wang Congshan was standing in the interrogation room.
Her face was a little pale, and her slender hands looked even paler because she had gripped the telephone receiver too hard just now. You could see the blood vessels under her skin.
