The Witch of the Cyberpunk Era

The latest website: By the evening of October 26, the marriage that people talked about had ended for 3 days.

With the support of her husband's family, Risa Ohara took the post as the new secretary general of the municipal authority of Anjiu, assisting her mayor father in public governance.

Citizens initially resented this apparent kinship politics, but their dissent quickly waned as Risa Ohara proposed a series of governance strategies commonly known as "the great city."

"These are the most convincing strategies." Xu Yang read the news and communicated with Ye Zi, "Constructing a citizen's identity, giving equal public service rights to the Aizu underground city and surface residents; building super-large-scale cheap urban public housing ; Implement infrastructure reconstruction projects and implement cash-for-work…”

"These are all funded by the Enomoto Bank." Ye Zi said, "The people in the risk control department are very confident in the future of the city."

"Ohara Risa persuaded the bank?" Xu Yang was curious.

"Lisha is a highly educated and well-mannered girl." Ye Zi's tone sounded very pleasant, "She made a plan and spent 3 billion a year in welfare relief expenses, so that she can grasp the annual GDP of this year. 1.2 trillion Anjiu City; if we don’t want to pay even this amount of money, we will face a rebel army with a size of 20,000 to 50,000 people, and it will cost 6 billion to eliminate them, and then get one and be beaten even worse city ​​of."

"So Xisheng has taken Anjiu City as his own thing..."

"Yeah, after Mayor Ohara Nobuhiko dies, Risa will inherit it and pass it on to the children of her and God Lin Jiuro, who are also Xisheng's children. Therefore, Xu Yang, working with Xisheng is better than resisting Xisheng. Get more and more people will understand that.”

"More and more people will be angry."

"I think they're all grass, this is an era when the density of firepower is greater than the density of population. And my mother is still spending huge sums of money to search and buy new reality operators, which will be shipped to the home soon." Ye Ye said lightly.

devour

"New reality manipulators?"

"I can't tell." Ye Zi laughed softly, "Let's talk about you, how have you been recently?"

"I'm busy with the production and development of synthetic people." Xu Yang said.

"Life is like a game," Ye Zi cared about him. "You have to adjust your daily state to get various benefits. I found that many people make game characters sleep obediently, but they stay up all night."

"For me, it's a little bit different," Xu Yang said. "One of my decisions will affect many people, so we must be cautious."

"Ah, suddenly there is a family meeting, and I want to listen to my mother's speech. Let's go first. By the way, I sent you a package, go pick it up!" Ye Zi ended the communication.

Xu Yang took the Zifeng number to leave the Shijin Building and arrived at the express delivery point.

It was like an orange self-service machine, Xu Yang entered the password given by Ye Ye, and jumped out from inside a large, rather shabby backpack, with a purple greeting card handwritten by Ye Ye hanging on the outside.

"Remember this bag! It contains the game cartridges I've collected over the years, and they're all for you. Except for a few boxes that are beautiful and memorable, the rest are here. I'm too busy to play. already."

Xu Yang felt that his heart was being stabbed hard. He carried the big backpack on his shoulders, and even he felt heavy. He returned to the cabin, picked out the cassettes inside, and recorded them one by one. , record the title, genre, and sale date of the game.

When he came to the large game room on the 11th floor of the Shijin Building, Xu Yang hung his backpack on a black background wall, pasted his handwritten label on the side of the backpack for easy retrieval, and then set his nearest game bay to virtual machine to avoid infection with electronic viruses.

At this point, only Qianmeng was playing the game. She was wearing a virtual helmet, the light on it was constantly flashing, sitting on a chair, her hands and feet were fixed, and 22 black skinned pipelines extended from the back of the helmet, connecting to the game wall behind her. , the whole wall is also colorful, 12 cooling fans rotate at high speed, and each fan blade is tied with a light strip, which is as dazzling as a peacock opening screen.

Rainbow Company in the Xia area made this kind of open game wall from a heavy and bloated game warehouse. The market price is 320,000 yuan. It belongs to the high-end game equipment and provides an excellent virtual experience.

Detecting someone entering, a corner of the game wall flashes red, the fans on the entire metal wall reduce the speed, the lights also change from colorful to uniform red and green breathing lights, the power of the device continues to drop, and the game helmet changes from a shallow dream. With her head up, the straps on her hands and feet were automatically untied. When she saw that it was Xu Yang, she was a little surprised.

"Boss?" She jumped out of the seat and saw the specially selected game compartment and the large backpack on the wall. "What is that?"

"It's an old game." Xu Yang shrugged, "But you can only play it on this game bay, don't take it to another game bay to run it."

"It's weird."

In an instant, Qianmeng disappeared in front of Xu Yang's eyes. He turned his head and saw that she was taking the game cassette from the big backpack.

""Fortress, Night", "Legend of Apex", "Mount and Blade", "The Union of Legends"..." Qianmeng rummaged through the cassette, "It's all games from a long time ago."

"What game are you playing now?"

"102 likes shooting games. I'm different. I play that kind of... more beautiful and atmospheric, and experience other people's lives." Qianmeng said.

She walked to the game wall and took out a black box from the inside of the wall. Inside was a hard cuboid game box, which was covered with labels and slogans.

Xu Yang checked it out. It is called "Being Human Again". It is supported by players from all over the world. Individual users can upload their own memory video data and open the download experience. Each player can experience the condensed version for 2 to 10 hours. A different life.

"The box says the best experience age is at least 16 years old." Xu Yang said. He saw many players upload their lives full of horror or color.

The five most popular life experiences came from professional traveller, top-paid actor, zookeeper, stamp dealer and Iris CEO Joe Caldo, who has 150 girlfriends.

"The difference between 14 and 16 is not far." Qian Meng was afraid that the box would be put away, so she quickly reached out to get it back.

"Why is it someone else's life?" Xu Yang handed the box back, "Isn't my life worth living?"

"Lord Farosa told me that she saw me a thousand years ago." Qian Meng released her magic power and disappeared in front of Xu Yang's eyes, then reset the box.

She has become more proficient at using time-stop magic. Xu Yang said secretly. Time stops, one of the most terrifying magic.

"Have seen you?"

"Charlie Valentine. Lord Farosa said that this is my previous name." Qianmeng said, "One of the witches of chaos, who stops magic when she controls, and Lord Farosa's companion. And I am the one who will return to her after her death. reborn."

Xu Yang still remembered this Xia Li. In Farosa's description, Xia Li harbored ill will towards men. When encountering a man, she often stopped the time and started the murder. When the flow of time resumed, they found that they had lost their lifeblood. Some of the most prestigious knights in Taixizhou at the time were murdered by her, and they were often unhappy and depressed afterwards.

"That Xia Li is completely another witch." Xu Yang said, "And you... came out of the laboratory."

"I don't know, if I was alone with her, I should change back, be exactly the same, and be a little scared." Qianmeng was very at a loss, "Lord Farosa said that witches with the same magic power are completely the same soul. Reincarnation. She taught me how to retrieve Charlie's memories, and reminded me of the episodes I had with Lord Faroza at the Chaos Witch's Gathering."

"Do you really remember anything?"

"Yes, it's true." There was a hint of flinch in Qianmeng's tone, "I tried to retrieve the image of my previous life, and then I felt hazy for a moment, and unconsciously said a few words to Lord Faroza. , talk to her about the weather in Aquileia, the temperature of the bath water, and the capture of slaves."

"That's why you play life simulation games?" Xu Yang frowned.

"I'm trying, I want to know what a person's life is like, from birth to death, how can we understand the whole process." Qianmeng lowered his head, "Lord Farosa must hope that Chaos Witch Charlie Valentine will be there. I am born again because we are one soul, one magic."

"These are all stopped." Xu Yang shook his head, "You are a shallow dream, born in 135 at the Infinite Z10 Research Institute in Kyoto, and found by me in August, and then joined the Witch Department of Nisto Company. I believe that these actually exist. Memories are more real than apparitions from millennia ago."

"Ha..." Qianmeng smiled wearily.

"Do you remember what I told you back then?" Xu Yang said, "I told you when you first came here."

Qianmeng was stunned.

"'Don't forget who you are'." Qian Meng widened her eyes and was very surprised, "You knew this would happen from the beginning?"

"I don't know anything." Xu Yang said, "but I know how Farosa will treat you."

"Why are her methods ineffective against you?"

"I'm 28 years old."

Qianmeng walked towards the large backpack hanging on the wall.

"Whose is this?" Qianmeng said ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ You seem to be very concerned about it, and feel a little lost. "

"Yes, someone I care about a lot," Xu Yang looked at Ye Ziyin's backpack, "she gave up some things forever. She believes that this is better for her and will not hinder her development."

Qianmeng kicked the ground.

"...I will repay you." She was a little shy, "When I grow up and become the real master of time, I will definitely repay you...I really hope I am an adult now, what you said means to me meaningful."

Xu Yang was startled.

"What?" Qianmeng was confused, "What I said... Did I say it wrong?"

"No, no... I suddenly understood." Xu Yang looked at Ye Zi's big backpack, "I know why she is becoming more and more unfamiliar, because she stays in such a place, every day she spends time with her mother, her She was deeply influenced by her family. I have to invite her to Tanaka Taro's dinner."
